With sensational performanc-es, greasy food and a lot of history, New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival kicked off this weekend.

In its 43rd year, Jazz Fest is older than at least half the people who pack its grounds, but it offers “les bon temps” for every kind of person imaginable. This weekend proved in living color that the fes-tival has evolved into much more than a showcase of New Orleans culture.

Under the sound of music, countless different accents and languages fi lled the air. London-ers rubbing sunscreen on each oth-ers’ backs, Minnesotans who don’t know how to pronounce “boudin,” Brazilians trading stories in Portu-guese — all of them turned up to get a taste of Louisiana.

Like the thousands of out-of-town attendees, many of the acts came down from all over the coun-try to celebrate Louisiana heritage. Indie favorites like Seattle’s Band of Horses and Chicago’s Andrew Bird may have seemed out of place,

but both acts drew inspiration from New Orleans. Bird’s violin called back to the zydeco bands that took the Fais Do-Do Stage before him, while Band of Horses brought its folk game down to the swamp.

The biggest headliners got in on the action, too. John Mayer closed out Friday under cloudy

skies with a relaxed set that still packed enough blues to make the great New Orleans blues-guitarists of history proud. Performing with

Board of Supervisors Chair-man Hank Danos said in a statement Friday he is confi -dent Judge Janice Clark’s rul-ing that the Board must “im-mediately produce” the names of the people considered for the University presidency will be overturned following the Board’s appeal.

Clark ordered the Board to produce the names of more than 30 candidates consid-ered by the Presidential Search Committee shortly after the NOLA.com | The Times-Pica-yune and The Advocate’s fi rst hearing Thursday .

“LSU is disappointed in the ruling but confi dent the decision will be reversed on appeal,” Dan-os said in the statement. “The rul-ing orders LSU to do something that is not possible — to produce records not in LSU’s custody or control.”

Danos insisted the Board conducted the presidential search “in accordance with a 2006 stat-ute that requires public disclosure when a candidate becomes an ac-tual ‘applicant.’”

“In addition, some press reports that the judge ruled the search was conducted illegally are fl atly wrong,” Danos said in the statement. “The judge ruled that certain information must be disclosed, not that the search was conducted illegally.”

The Daily Reveille Editor in Chief Andrea Gallo, who also fi led suit against the University, said Clark’s ruling strengthens her case, which will be heard Tuesday by Judge Timothy Kel-ley .

“What happened Thursday with The Times-Picayune and

LSU sophomore running back Jeremy Hill was arrested and charged with simple battery early Saturday morning after an incident at Reggie’s Bar in Tiger-land .

Hill , 20 , is already on proba-tion after pleading guilty in Janu-ary 2012 to misdemeanor carnal knowledge of a juvenile. Several media outlets have reported that if convicted, Hill would be in violation of his probation.

According to reports, a wit-ness made a video recording of the incident on his mobile phone and shared it with the police. The video reportedly shows a man who appears to be Hill and an-other unidentifi ed suspect strik-ing the victim multiple times and knocking him to the ground.

LSU Sports Information Director Michael Bonnette told NOLA.com | The Times-Pica-yune on Saturday that LSU coach Les Miles was in New York for the NFL Draft and was unavail-able for comment.

Hill was LSU’s leading rush-er in 2012 with 755 yards and 12 touchdowns as a freshman .

Former LSU cornerback Tharold Simon also ran into trou-ble recently when he was arrested Thursday night and charged with public intimidation, resisting ar-rest and unnecessary noise in his hometown of Eunice.

Simon’s vehicle was report-edly blocking a street when a po-lice offi cer asked him to move it. Simon reportedly told the offi cer, “I own Eunice” and said, “I’m going to buy these projects, and you are going to be mine.”

Simon’s agent, Peter Schaf-fer, has disputed police accounts and said the police overreacted.

Despite the arrest, Simon was selected in the fi fth round of the NFL Draft on Saturday, with the Seattle Seahawks taking him with the 138th overall pick.

Advocates of liberation theology: Francis can � x church ‘in ruins’

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — A new pope from Latin America known for ministering to the poor in his country’s slums is raising the hopes of advocates of liberation theology, whose leftist social activ-ism had alarmed previous pontiffs.

Prominent liberation theo-logian Leonardo Boff said Pope Francis has what it takes to fi x a church “in ruins” and shares his movement’s commitment to build-ing a church for the world’s poor.

“With this pope, a Jesuit and a pope from the Third World, we can breathe happiness,” Boff said.Iraq suspends Al-Jazeera and nine TV channels for escalating tension

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi au-thorities suspended the operating licenses of pan-Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera and nine Iraqi TV chan-nels on Sunday after accusing them of escalating sectarian tension. The move signaled the Shiite-led gov-ernment’s mounting worries over deteriorating security amid Sunni unrest and clashes that have left more than 180 people dead.

The suspensions, which took effect immediately, appeared to target mainly Sunni channels known for criticizing Prime Min-ister Nouri al-Malik’s government.

Some people are overlooked in United States immigration overhaul

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Carlos Gon-zalez has lived nearly all his 29 years in a country he considers home but now fi nds himself on the wrong side of the border — and the wrong side of a proposed overhaul of the U.S. immigration system that would grant legal status to mil-lions of people.

Gonzalez was deported to Tijuana, Mexico, from Santa Bar-bara in December, one of nearly 2 million removals from the United States since Barack Obama was fi rst elected president.Bombing shifts Massachusetts Senate race before primaries

BOSTON (AP) — Even before the explosions, polling suggested that Massachusetts voters weren’t excited about the looming special election to replace former U.S. Sen. John Kerry.

But in the days after bombs ripped through the Boston Mara-thon’s crowded streets, politics were all but forgotten as authorities launched an unprecedented man-hunt and a region grappled with terror.

“There are things that are more important than campaigning, and that horrifi c event was clearly one of them,” said U.S. Rep. Ed Markey.

COVINGTON (AP) — Covington turned out to help clean up a Cath-olic school where vandals spray-painted and daubed graffi ti.

Brother Ray Bulliard, presi-dent and principal of St. Paul’s School, told The Times-Picayune the cafeteria, chapel, baseball stadium, Founder’s Circle, main building and religious statues were painted Friday night.

Bulliard says much of the graffi ti was anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, pro-satanic and obscene.

Covington police say that with help from about 60 residents, all the graffi ti had been removed by 2 p.m. Saturday.Shreveport airport reopens runway after � nishing $5M renovation

SHREVEPORT (AP) — Shreve-port Regional Airport has fi nished a seven-month, $5 million project to repave the facility’s secondary runway.

deputy director, told the Shreve-port Times that planes landing be-fore the repairs kicked up rock and loose gravel. He says the runway was deteriorating very rapidly.

Dutch cyberattack suspect had ‘bunker’ and van in northeast Spain

MADRID (AP) — A Dutch citi-zen arrested in northeast Spain on suspicion of launching what is de-scribed as the biggest cyberattack in Internet history operated from a bunker and had a van capable of hacking into networks anywhere in the country, offi cials said Sunday.

The suspect traveled in Spain using his van “as a mobile comput-ing offi ce, equipped with various antennas to scan frequencies,” an Interior Ministry statement said.

Agents arrested him Thursday in the city of Granollers.

A new front for gun background checks: a winning ballot initiative

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — After struggling to sway both state and federal lawmakers, proponents of expanding background checks for gun sales are now exploring whether they will have more suc-cess by taking the issue directly to voters.

While advocates generally prefer that new gun laws be passed through the legislative process, especially at the national level, they are also concerned about how much sway the National Rifl e Association has with lawmakers.

Students who eat breakfast on campus can now hit snooze one more time thanks to the new Tapingo app released by LSU Dining.

The app, which has had a soft opening over the past two weeks, allows students to order food from Jamba Juice, Papa John’s and soon Einstein Bros Bagels via their iPhone or Android device.

Instead of waiting in line to order, pay and wait for the food to be prepared, the app allows stu-dents to order with Tiger Cash or Paw Points on their way to the lo-cation and have their order wait-ing for them when they arrive.

The Tapingo app is used by universities around the country, and Resident District Manager of Chartwells David Heidke said it was worth testing out at LSU.

The free app allows students to look through all the available locations on campus and their complete menus. If a student is having trouble finding a location, a map feature may help guide them. A feedback feature is also available so that they students can send an email with their concerns.

Director of Retail Develop-ment for Auxiliary Services Ste-phen Barr said the app is ideal for students on a tight schedule.

“Say you’re coming out of your class in the Quad. By the time you walk to the Union your order is ready,” Barr said.

Geology freshman Cathe-rine Hudson agreed that Tapingo would work well if she was on a tight schedule.

“If I had to go to a meeting or a class then I would definitely use it,” she said.

Physics freshman Kevin Brown said the new app would beat out calling Papa John’s to have a particular pizza made and also help expedite his smoothie cravings.

“I could see how it would be useful because [Jamba Juice] takes the longest out of anything in the Union,” Brown said.

Barr said he would like to kick Tapingo off full speed in the fall semester.

He is currently working to get an idea of how the flow of the app works in an effort to “get all the bugs and all the kinks out.”

“I order my oatmeal ev-ery morning just to make sure it works,” he said.

Barr said students will pos-sibly be able to use credit cards on the app next fall, and there is potential for more dining options.

TECHNOLOGY CRIME

Three juveniles were arrested Saturday night for armed robbery after taking a student’s phone and wallet near the Greek Amphithe-atre, according to LSU Police De-partment Spokesman Capt. Cory Lalonde.

The victim called LSUPD around 10 p.m. and said three peo-ple approached him with a gun, took his wallet and phone and fled toward State Street, Lalonde said.

LSUPD was able to locate the two 15-year-olds and one 16-year-old on Highland Road near Grant Street, Lalonde said.

LSUPD sent out an emergency text message and email after the report and followed it up after the suspects were arrested.

The suspects were booked in East Baton Rouge Parish Juvenile Detention Center, Lalonde said.

University alumni that run or lead successful and growing businesses were recognized at the Third Annual LSU 100: Fastest Growing Tiger Businesses Awards Luncheon on Friday at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Baton Rouge.

Businesses submitted finan-cial information to Postlethwaite & Netterville, an independent ac-counting firm for the LSU 100 that compiled the data and ranked the businesses based on growth from 2009 to 2011, said director of the LSU 100 and Director of Develop-ment at the Stephenson Entrepre-neurship Institute Lisa O’Beirne.

Cordina New Orleans Cock-tails, a New Orleans-based compa-ny that sells pre-mixed cocktails in retail stores, took the No. 1 spot on the list this year, said co-founder of Cordina Craig Cordes.

The LSU 100 is hosted by the University Stephenson Entrepre-neurship Institute, and it celebrates the success of the businesses in the spirit of entrepreneurship at the University, O’Beirne said.

According to O’Beirne, busi-nesses that participate in the LSU 100 vary from engineering back-grounds to art and design.

“This is arguably the largest non-athletic event that impacts ev-ery college on campus,” she said.

Aside from recognizing the alumni-run businesses, O’Beirne said the LSU 100 also allows stu-dents and future entrepreneurs to learn from the successes of the par-ticipants.

Cordes said when he entered his business into the LSU 100 he thought a top 60 finish was attain-able but didn’t expect to get first.

“It was actually pretty hum-bling — there were a lot of big names on [the list],” he said.

Cordes said running a busi-ness isn’t like your typical 9-to-5 desk job, and every day has a new issue that needs to be resolved. It’s that reason that made winning first place in the LSU 100 validate all the hard work and effort he has put in over the years, he said.

Cordes said he will participate in the LSU 100 again next year and expects Cordina to perform well. Cordina recently began ship-ping products internationally, and Cordes said he expects the busi-ness to continue to grow at a fast rate as a result.

O’Beirne said businesses will be able to register for the next LSU 100 beginning Oct. 1, 2014, and the top 100 will be revealed that same month.

Festival International artists highlight diverse culture

BRANDON, Miss. (AP) — The arrest of a 41-year-old Missis-sippi martial arts instructor in a case of poison-laced letters sent to President Barack Obama and others capped a week in which in-vestigators initially zeroed in on a rival of James Everett Dutschke, then decided they had the wrong man.

Federal authorities arrested Dutschke early Saturday at his home in Tupelo. He was charged with “knowingly developing, producing, stockpiling, transfer-ring, acquiring, retaining and pos-sessing a biological agent, toxin and delivery system, for use as a weapon, to wit: ricin.”

U.S. attorney Felicia Adams and Daniel McMullen, the FBI agent in charge in Mississippi, made the announcement in a news release. Dutschke is expected to appear Monday in U.S. District Court in Oxford.

Authorities said the hunt for a suspect revealed tie after small-town tie between the two men being investigated and the 80-year-old county judge who, along with Obama and U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi, was among the targets of the letters.

Dutschke’s house, business and vehicles in Tupelo were searched earlier in the week, of-ten by crews in hazardous materi-als suits. He also had come under surveillance.

Dutschke’s attorney, Lori Nail Basham, said she had no comment. Earlier this week she said that Dutschke was cooperat-ing fully with investigators and Dutschke has insisted he had nothing to do with the letters. He faces up to life in prison if con-victed.

Dutschke already had legal problems. Earlier this month, he pleaded not guilty in state court to two child molestation charges involving three girls younger than 16. He also was appealing a con-viction on a different charge of indecent exposure. He told The Associated Press earlier this week that his lawyer told him not to comment on those cases.

The letters, which tests showed were tainted with ricin, were sent April 8 to Obama, Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi and a Mississippi judge, Sadie Hol-land.

Wicker spokesman Ryan Taylor said because the investi-gation was ongoing, the senator couldn’t comment.

Charges in the case had ini-tially been filed against a 45-year-old Elvis impersonator, Paul Kev-in Curtis, and then dropped.

Curtis was arrested on April 17 at his Corinth, Miss., home, but the charges were dropped six days later. Curtis, who says he was framed, was released from jail.

The focus then turned to Dutschke, who has ties to the former suspect, the judge and the senator. Earlier in the week, as in-vestigators searched his primary residence in Tupelo, Dutschke told AP: “I don’t know how much more of this I can take.”

“I’m a patriotic American. I don’t have any grudges against anybody. ... I did not send the let-ters,” Dutschke said.

Curtis’ attorney, Christi Mc-Coy, said Saturday: “We are re-lieved but also saddened. This crime is nothing short of diaboli-cal. I have seen a lot of meanness in the past two decades, but this stops me in my tracks.”

Some of the language in the letters was similar to posts on Curtis’ Facebook page, and they were signed, “I am KC and I ap-prove this message.” Curtis’ si-gnoff online was often similar.

Dutschke and Curtis were acquainted. Curtis said they had talked about possibly publishing a book on a conspiracy that Cur-tis insists he has uncovered to sell body parts on a black market. But he said they later had a feud.

Curtis’ attorneys have said they believe their client was set up. An FBI agent testified that no evidence of ricin was found in searches of Curtis’ home. Cur-tis attorney Hal Neilson said the defense gave authorities a list of people who may have had a rea-son to hurt Curtis and Dutschke came up.

Judge Holland also is a com-mon link between the two men and both know Wicker.

Holland was the presiding judge in a 2004 case in which Curtis was accused of assault-ing a Tupelo attorney a year ear-lier. Holland sentenced him to six months in the county jail. He served only part of the sentence, according to his brother.

And Holland’s family has had political skirmishes with Dutschke. Her son, Steve Hol-land, a Democratic state rep-resentative, said he thinks his mother’s only other encounter with Dutschke was at a rally in the town of Verona in 2007, when Dutschke ran as a Republican against Steve Holland.

Holland said his mother con-fronted Dutschke after he made a derogatory speech about the Hol-land family. She demanded that he apologize, which Holland says he did.

On Saturday, Steve Holland said he can’t say for certain that Dutschke is the person who sent the letter to his mother but added, “I feel confident the FBI knows what they are doing.”

Rebuild Weekend receives donation

Fernanda Zamudio-SuarezStaff Writer

Contact Fernanda Zamudio-Suarez at fsuarez@lsureveille.com

This weekend Mayor-Presi-dent Melvin “Kip” Holden’s office partnered with a nonprofit to im-prove neighborhoods and the lives of several Baton Rouge citizens during National Rebuild Weekend.

The city-parish teamed up Friday with Rebuilding Together Baton Rouge, a nonprofit organi-zation that builds and improves homes of low-income elderly and disabled homeowners. The team donated about $3,000 in part of the Community Development Block Grant for construction supplies.

The supplies went toward re-modeling Baton Rouge resident Karilyn Morris’ home.

Julie Baxter, board member for Rebuilding Together Baton Rouge, said the project began in 2004 and conducts about 20 dif-ferent projects throughout the year for low-income senior citizens and veterans.

Baxter said the organization aims to not only improve homes but also neighborhoods that are meaningful to Baton Rouge citi-zens.

“These are the neighborhoods that help us keep up with our city,” Baxter said. “Neighborhoods that people really value.”

Coordinator for this week-end’s projects Chris Andrews stat-ed in a news release that Morris has always lived in the same house in her neighborhood, but lately de-teriorating conditions have made the house difficult to live in.

“Ms. Morris is a lovely and active 62-year-old, and she’s lived in this home all her life. She inher-ited it from her family,” Andrews said in the release.

Morris’ leaky roof was lead-ing to other problems as well, An-drews said.

Baxter said students should be encouraged to participate because often volunteers from all over the city come to help out and discover areas they have never been to be-fore and help a direct need in the community.

“It is great for morale building for companies and organizations. We have really made a difference to these people,” Baxter said.

The group does not always stick with residential homes; Baxter said it also helped the Youth Runaway Home and the women’s shelter.

City-parish gets involved in projects

On the back of sophomore Aaron Nola’s third-straight com-plete game victory Friday, the No. 2 LSU baseball team carried a swagger with it as it had all season – ready to pounce on a vulnerable No. 15 South Carolina ball club that has mostly been an enigma throughout Southeastern Confer-ence play.

Between then and now, the swagger was lost in the fold as the Tigers (39-6, 16-5 SEC) dropped

the fi nal two games of the series, culminating in a lifeless 4-0 loss on Sunday that handed the Tigers their fi rst series loss of the season.

For LSU freshman shortstop Alex Bregman, the disappear-ance was evident, and he offered no excuses after an 0-for-4 day on Sunday dipped his batting average below .400.

“We didn’t come out with fi re,” Bregman said. “It’s the SEC; we should have. I think we need to come out with more cockiness and readiness to play.”

After an emotional roller coaster Saturday night that saw LSU coach Paul Mainieri ejected for only the second time in his Tiger career after arguing a balk called in the ninth inning en route

to a 4-2 loss, LSU once again fell behind early Sunday as junior starter Kurt McCune endured a rocky fi rst inning.

Gamecock third baseman Christian Vergason, the second batter of the game, launched a tri-ple just past a diving Jared Foster and was chased in by South Caro-lina fi rst baseman LB Dantzler’s double down the fi rst base line two batters later.

McCune’s struggles were just beginning as Max Schrock and Grayson Greiner followed with consecutive singles, plating Dant-zler before McCune put out the fi re with a groundout.

“He didn’t get his curveball

The LSU football team ex-panded its footprint on the NFL this weekend as nine Tigers were selected in the 2013 NFL Draft, breaking the program’s 65-year-old record for most selections in a single draft.

Defensive end Barkevious Mingo was the fi rst Tiger selected Thursday night when he was cho-sen by the Cleve-land Browns with the sixth overall pick in the draft.

“I am focused on the next chapter in my [life] and ready to

get to work,” Mingo said in a news release. “The past week has been one to remember, especially having my family here. I would like to thank

According to a 2009 Sports Illustrated article, 78 percent of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under fi nancial stress because of joblessness or divorce within just two years of retirement, and an estimated 60 percent of NBA players are “broke” within fi ve years of retirement.

These statistics have been disputed since their inception, but regardless of the precision of these percentages, the number of professional athletes facing eco-nomic distress is undoubtedly signifi cant.

LSU marketing professor Thomas Karam has developed a program to help former NFL players transition into their lives after football in hopes they might avoid becoming a part of these statistics.

“The Program on Personal Branding” is a three-day semi-nar in which a dozen former NFL players are invited to participate in workshops where they learn management skills, how to build their brand and how to conduct a job interview.

LSU sweeps defending national champion Alabama

More than 7,000 people shuffled in and out of Tiger Park this weekend to see the LSU softball team accomplish a feat it hasn’t performed since 2007: Clinching a Southeastern Conference West-ern Division title.

The No. 12 Tigers swept defending na-tional champion No. 4 Alabama, thus guaranteeing at least a share of the division title with the Crimson Tide.

“In practice we got in trouble because Coach pointed out that we had an empty bench of SEC West trophies,” said junior right fielder Simone Heyward. “She put all the papers down and said this is all Ala-bama. … We decided we were going to win this.”

The Tigers completed the sweep — something they’ve only

been able to achieve once in 2013 — in a dramatic fashion Saturday, staving off a deficit three times before junior Jacee Blades’ go-ahead, RBI single in the bottom of the fifth inning pushed sopho-more center fielder A.J. Andrews across the plate.

Blades’ game-winning RBI came only an inning after she made a dangerous diving catch over the left-field wall in the fourth inning.

“It was really, I think, just meant to be to-day,” said LSU coach Beth To-rina. “Our kids played hard, and sometimes you play hard and you get the breaks, and I think that’s what happened to us today.”

S e n i o r pitcher Rachele Fico threw what will be her final SEC, regular-season start in Baton Rouge on

Saturday in the Tigers’ Senior Day.

Fico recorded the final game-clinching out via strikeout, thus moving one strikeout away from tying former Tiger All-Ameri-can Emily Turner for third on

LSU’s all-time career strikeout list.

“I bleed purple and gold now, and I never really understood what this place was about until I got down here,” Fico said. “LSU, it sucks you up and turns you into a Tiger for life. I get it now. I get why this place is so special now.”

The close win for the Tigers was right on par with the rest of the weekend against Alabama, which is now 0-8 in the new Ti-ger Park.

LSU won all three games this weekend by one run each, with Thursday’s series opener going to extra innings before it was decided.

“It is really difficult to beat a team three times,” Fico said. “This conference is so talented from top to bottom. Anyone can beat anyone on any day. … We say Sundays are about heart and grit and determination. It comes down to who wants it more.”

The Tigers will transition into a midweek game against in-state opponent Northwestern State on Tuesday before heading into the final weekend of regular-season play when they travel to Georgia.

The winners and losers of 2013 NFL Draft

Conquering the NFL Draft isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Teams have to be aggressive in order to get the players they want. Sitting back and waiting for the prospects on the top of your draft board to fall into your lap simply won’t work.

Some franchises were able to execute their draft plan and make smart decisions to find value in the later rounds. Other organizations made picks that left their fans boo-ing and scratching their heads.

Here are my winners and losers of the 2013 NFL Draft:

WINNERSArizona Cardinals

Arizona’s first selection, North Carolina offensive guard Jonathan Cooper, will provide stability on the offensive line for the next decade.

But the real value for Ari-zona came in the second and third rounds.

LSU linebacker Kevin Minter should have been a first rounder, but fell to the Cardinals with the No. 45 pick. Arizona also took a big risk se-lecting ex-Tiger Tyrann Mathieu in the third round.

But in this case, the risk is worth the reward. There’s no denying Mathieu’s talent, and he’ll

get to be mentored on and off the field by former Tiger Patrick Peter-son.

Stanford running back Stepfan Taylor and Texas A&M wide out Ryan Swope were steals in the later rounds.

San Diego ChargersThe Chargers probably had

the best first three picks of the 32 NFL teams.

I’ve watched Alabama offen-sive tackle D.J. Fluker pound de-fensive linemen into the ground for a while in the Southeastern Confer-ence. He’ll do the same for quite some time at the next level.

Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o was a second rounder, so he won’t have the same pressure he would have felt if he went in the first. The Chargers just have to hope Te’o has put his girlfriend hoax be-hind him.

San Diego’s third round selec-tion, Cal wide receiver Keenan Al-len, will finally get to display his im-mense talent with a gunslinger like Phillip Rivers throwing him the ball.

San Francisco 49ersIt’s almost unfair how solid the

49ers draft was.San Fran traded up to get LSU

safety Eric Reid, who will be given the opportunity to start from day one. Florida State defensive end Tank Carradine, the 49ers’ second-round pick, has injury concerns, but when healthy, he is a handful

coming off the edge.South Carolina running back

Marcus Lattimore got scooped up in the fourth round by the 49ers, which was the best possible scenario com-ing off the gruesome knee injury he suffered last season. Lattimore will get all the time he needs to rehab and won’t be rushed back since the 49ers already have Frank Gore and LaMichael James.

LOSERSNew York Jets

I’m convinced the Jets don’t want to be the best team in the NFL — they want to be the most enter-taining one.

As if New York didn’t have enough drama in the quarterback department, adding West Virginia signal caller Geno Smith to the mix will only make matters worse. Here’s a spoiler, Jets fans: He’s not that good.

Alabama cornerback Dee Mi-liner was a solid addition with the ninth overall selection, but the Jets reached for Missouri defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson at pick No. 13.

Defensive tackles Sharrif Floyd and Star Lotulelei were still on the board and will be better pros than Richardson.

Dallas CowboysDallas passed on numerous

players who could have made the Cowboys immediately better. Their first two selections didn’t make

much sense.The Cowboys took Wisconsin

center Travis Frederick with their first round selection, but he prob-ably would have been there in round two.

During the second round, “America’s Team” took another gamble on San Diego State tight end Gavin Escobar. It was an odd choice because the Cowboys already have perennial Pro Bowler Jason Witten at that position.

Dallas didn’t have a hor-rible draft, but none of the players

selected will make an immediate impact. Owner Jerry Jones needs to hand over his general manager du-ties to someone who’s qualified to fulfill them.

TRACK AND FIELD

Lady Tigers break fourth outdoor LSU record of seasonThe LSU women’s track and

field team broke the school record in the 4x800 relay during the 119th Penn Relays at Penn State this weekend.

The team of sophomore Sa-mantha Levin, junior Natoya Goule, junior Nikita Tracey and se-nior Charlene Lipsey finished third with a time of 8 minutes, 19.43 seconds.

“I was shocked when our time came up. It was totally unexpect-ed,” Lipsey said in a news release. “Not everybody on our team runs the 800 meters, so we were just try-ing to do our best. … We just didn’t know what to expect.”

LSU senior Damar Forbes won the long jump with a

season-best jump of 25 feet and 11 inches. Forbes said winning the event meant a lot because it was his last time competing for LSU, but also said performing well in the jump is important for the remain-der of the season.

“We’ve been working on my technique a lot these last few weeks,” Forbes said. “My tech-nique is so much better now, even when I was jumping my best marks. I know I’ll be jumping my best at SECs and NCAAs.”

The Lady Tigers won the sprint medley relay with a team of senior Latoya McDermott, senior Kimberlyn Duncan, Tracey and Goule. LSU coach Dennis Shaver said he was satisfied with the re-sults and the team’s continued im-provement.

“I was pleased by the way we

ran the sprint relays.” Shaver said. “We still have some things to clean up, but we continue to improve each chance we have to run.”

With the victory in the sprint relays, LSU has now won at least one Championship of America re-lay title in 23-straight seasons at the Relays.

“Twenty-three years is quite a long time of sustained success here at Penn, and we’re very proud of that,” Shaver said.

Tigers sophomore Rodney Brown won the college division of the shot put and finished second in the discus. Brown is now ranked No. 2 in the NCAA in the discus. Freshman Fitzroy Dunkley fin-ished third in the high jump.

The 4x100 team of McDermott, Duncan, junior Takeia Pinck-ney and junior Toshika Sylvester

finished third. The track and field teams have

two weeks off until the Southeast-ern Conference Outdoor Cham-pionships on May 9. Shaver said now that the regular season meets are over, the focus is shifted for his athletes.

“We’re looking forward to the next two weeks of prepara-tion as we get ready for the most

important part of our season,” he said. “We came here and did some good things as a team, but I know our athletes are most focused on what is to come in the champi-onship season. That’s what our program is most known for.”

Team signs 13 undrafted players

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — The Los Angeles Clippers are focusing much more of their attention on Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley, and he has only himself to blame.

Conley is having a bit of a coming out party in this first-round series, scoring a postseason-best 28 points in Game 2, a performance he followed by hand-ing out 10 assists with three steals and no turnovers, which hadn’t been done in the NBA playoffs since John Stockton in 2001.

He topped that in Game 4, setting a Grizzlies’ post-season record Saturday with 13 as-sists, 15 points and two turnovers.

Clippers guard Chris Paul says Conley is approaching elite point guard status in the NBA.

“The team goes as he goes,” Paul said. “I think that’s what their team realizes. When he plays well, they play well. They feed off his energy. I try to contain him as much as possible, but Mike is one of those guys year in and year out just keeps getting better, and he’s a handful.”

Paul said that before Con-ley handed out 23 assists over

two games as the Grizzlies evened up this series at 2-all with Game 5 on Tuesday night in Los Angeles.

With his play the past two games, Conley became just the eighth player since the 1992 post-season to hand out at least 23 as-sists with no more than two turn-overs over a two-game span in the same playoffs.

Rajon Rondo had 27 assists with two turnovers for Boston last year. Paul did it twice with New

Orleans in 2008 with 23 assists and one followed by 28 assists and two turnovers. Jason Kidd had 25 as-sists and two turn-overs for Phoenix in 2001, while Mark Jackson had 28 assists and two turnovers in 1998 with 24 assists and two in 1999. Muggsy Bogues had 23 assists and

two turnovers for Charlotte in 1993 and Terry Porter had 25 and two turnovers for Portland in 1992 ac-cording to STATS.

Conley insists he’s just trying to match up against Paul and do the best he can.

“I have to match him ... in or-der for us to win,” Conley said.

The six-year veteran has blos-somed for the Grizzlies since Mem-phis traded away leading scorer Rudy Gay on Jan. 30 to Toronto. Since the All-Star break, Conley averaged 17.6 points in March and 17 points in April as he scored 20

or more points in 10 of the final 17 games of the regular season. He also led the NBA with 174 steals this season, breaking his own team record by 30.

“He’s played well in the regu-lar season,” Mem-phis coach Lionel Hollins said Sun-day. “And I think after the first game the people coming out and biting him in the back again. But you just have to go out and play and compete.”

Conley has his teammates’ confidence.

“We expect Mike to make the right play pretty much every time,” center Marc Gasol said.

Conley has performed well enough in this series that the Clip-pers have made defensive adjust-ments trying to corral the 6-foot-1 guard.

“I’ve got to get used to them playing that way, certain ways and being schemed because I haven’t had to deal with that in my career

having so many guys on our team to scheme against,” Conley said. “It’s something new for me, so hopefully I’ll adjust.”

Not that Conley is complain-ing. He was the No. 4 overall

draft selection out of Ohio State in 2007, and the Griz-zlies rewarded him with a five-year, $40 million exten-sion in November 2010.

“It’s good to have a little bit of respect around

here, but I’m just trying to get bet-ter as the days go on,” Conley said.

Conley is a speedy guard, and his ability to dart through the lane for easy layups or quick passes to Zach Randolph or Marc Gasol have hurt the Clippers. Los Ange-les coach Vinny Del Negro said they have to be able to control Conley a little bit.

“If he plays on the perimeter, that’s better for us,” Del Negro said. “But he’s capable of making shots as well. We got to pick our

spots with him, and we know how important he is to kind of running their team.”

Conley didn’t let going 1 of 9 from the floor in Game 3’s 94-82 win distract him. Not only did he hit his four free throw attempts, he also grabbed six rebounds and blocked two shots playing more than 37 minutes. In Game 4, Con-ley had seven of his assists by half-time. He also hit two of his three 3-pointers.

The Grizzlies haven’t had a last-second shot yet in this series. Critics have wondered who would take that shot, but Paul has an idea who will have the ball.

“There was once upon a time if the game was on the line, you knew it was going to Rudy or Zach for the game-winner,” Paul said. “Now they go to Mike, and rightfully so. I think that shows how much confidence they have in him.”

PARK RIDGE, Ill. (AP) — No more “Legends.” And no more “Leaders.”

The Big Ten is giving them the boot and following a more conventional route for its divi-sion names.

The conference is going with “East” and “West” instead and switching to a nine-game sched-uling format after presidents and chancellors approved the moves Sunday.

The new division alignments will begin in 2014 when Rutgers and Maryland join the confer-ence, meaning “Legends” and “Leaders” will be a thing of the past. That will proba-bly come as good news for fans who have criticized those names ever since the league unveiled them in 2010. To many, they were con-fusing and didn’t help identify where teams play, but that won’t be an issue any more.

Besides the new division alignment, teams will go from playing eight conference games to nine in 2016.

“Big Ten directors of ath-letics concluded four months of study and deliberation with unanimous approval of a future football structure that preserved rivalries and created divisions based on their primary principle of East/West geography,” com-missioner Jim Delany said in a statement. “The directors of ath-letics also relied on the results of a fan survey commissioned by BTN last December to ar-rive at their recommendation, which is consistent with the pub-lic sentiment expressed in the poll.”

Indiana, Maryland, Michi-gan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Rutgers will be in the East division. The West will consist of Illi-nois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebras-ka, Northwestern, Purdue and Wisconsin.

Schools will play six divi-sion games plus two against teams from the other division in 2014 and 2015. In 2016, they’ll play three cross-division games.

Indiana and Purdue will meet on an annual basis. But Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon said each school had to make compromises.

“Fourteen athletic directors came to the table with differ-ent objectives and our goal was to compromise to the point that we could move together with one plan,” he said. “Each of us

had things that were extremely important and things on our wish list. I wanted us to play Michigan State and Ohio State every year and for the Michigan-Ohio State game to be the last one ever year. I’m pleased we’re going to be able to do those three things. But it’s not a perfect setup because no school got everything they wanted.”

East division teams will host five conference games during even-numbered years starting in 2016, with West teams host-ing five in odd-numbered sea-sons. Under that format, teams will be guaranteed to play each other at least once every four years, and in a statement, Ne-braska chancellor Harvey Perl-man called that “an important feature.”

He also praised the changes, saying they are “the best option” and “will serve us well.”

Brandon said a 10-game for-mat was “care-fully considered to even out the home-and-away problem,” but that would have hin-dered non-confer-

ence scheduling.“If you take away another

non-conference game, it would have a detrimental impact fi-nancially for everybody in the conference, and we would’ve taken the biggest hit because we have the largest stadium,” he said.

Nebraska coach Bo Pelini praised the division alignment and the nine-game format.

“Geography seems to be a logical way to determine the di-visions, and it should allow for easier travel for our fans,” he said in a statement. “The nine-game conference schedule will help improve the strength of schedules across the board in the Big Ten, and I think everyone anticipates strength of schedule being a key component for choosing teams to participate in the new playoff system.”

Delany said athletic directors met in person or talked on con-ference calls six times from De-cember to March to discuss the changes.

“The level of cooperation and collaboration was reflec-tive of what we’ve come to expect from this group of ad-ministrators who have worked extremely well together on a number of complex matters over the past several years,” he said. “We are all looking forward to ushering in this new era of Big Ten football.”

BOSTON (AP) — Jason Terry scored Boston’s last nine points and the Celtics weathered a strong comeback by the New York Knicks, avoiding a sweep with a 97-90 overtime win Sunday.

Paul Pierce led the Celtics with 29 points as they forced a fifth game in the series, but it was Terry who provided the finishing touches.

In Game 3, he had been el-bowed by J.R. Smith, and the NBA suspended the Knicks guard for Sunday’s game.

New York had tied the game 84-84 after trailing by 20 points early in the third quarter. It was 88-all before the Celtics regained control and took the lead for good on a 3-pointer by Terry. Carmelo Anthony, who led the Knicks

with 36 points, hit a short jumper, but Terry connected on a 15-foot-er with 50 seconds remaining for a 93-90 lead.

After Anthony missed a 3-pointer with 21 seconds to go, Terry was fouled and sank both free throws. He added a layup to close out the game.

But the Celtics still have a huge deficit in trying to become the first team to win after trailing a series 3-0.

Game 5 is Wednesday night in New York, where the Knicks can win their first playoff series in 13 years.

Jeff Green scored 26 points for the Celtics and Terry finished with 18.

The Celtics showed re-newed energy early after being held below 80 points in each of the first three games. They led 54-35 at halftime and 59-39 three minutes into the third quar-ter before their recent second-half woes returned. In previous first halves, they scored just 25

points in Game 1 and 23 in Game 2. On Sunday, they were out-scored 30-14 in the third quarter and led just 68-65 heading into the fourth.

Boston held a 65-51 lead when Anthony went to the bench with 3:35 remaining. The Knicks outscored the Celtics 14-3 the rest of the way behind 11 points from Felton and a 3-pointer from Iman Shumpert. Felton finished with 16 points in the quarter and 27 in the game.

The Knicks played the first half as if they had taken shoot-ing lessons from the Celtics. New York hit just 28.9 percent of its shots (11 for 38) after Boston made only 39.5 percent of its at-tempts in the first three games.

The Celtics found their range from the start and connected on 51.3 percent (20 for 39).

over, and he didn’t keep the ball down in the zone,” Mainieri said. “That’s the stuff that he’s been do-ing and I thought he’d do today.”

After surrendering a five-pitch walk to nine-hole hitter Tan-ner English to open the second, McCune allowed a single to Gra-ham Saiko before Vergason plated English with a sacrifice fly to shal-low right field, putting the Game-cocks up 3-0.

McCune’s afternoon ended almost an inning later, allowing six hits and three runs through just two-and-two-thirds in-nings.

The three-run lead would suf-fice for freshman Gamecock starter Jack Wynkoop, who befuddled the Tigers through seven shutout innings while al-lowing only five hits.

Tiger senior first baseman Mason Katz, who finished 1-for-4 with a double, credited Wynkoop but also shoveled some of the blame to the Tigers’ approach at the plate.

“He was missing up pitches, throwing strikes,” Katz said. “We had some feeble swings. We took some bad swings when we were ahead in the count a good few times.”

In relief of McCune, Tiger senior Brent Bonvillain pitched masterfully through four innings, allowing only one Gamecock hit while striking out two as he kept the Tigers within striking distance.

“We know they love swinging

at the first pitch,” Bonvillain said. “If I threw a ball, I tried to think about what I did and make that ad-justment on the mound.”

Katz’s double off Wynkoop to open the seventh breathed some life into an otherwise mute crowd of 6,380 who sensed a Tiger threat may finally be brewing.

However, as he did all after-noon, Wynkoop buckled down to induce a groundout and two pop-outs to end his afternoon on a high note.

LSU was then tasked with facing southpaw Adam Westmo-reland out of the Gamecock bull-pen. The Tigers began to gain momentum in the eighth inning as center fielder Mark Laird roped a single and Fos-ter drew a walk to send Bregman to

the plate as the tying run.And, in a basic summation of

both Saturday and Sunday, Breg-man knocked a flyout weakly to center, stranding the fifth and sixth Tiger runners of the afternoon.

South Carolina tacked on an insurance run in the ninth after ju-nior closer Joey Bourgeois walked English and Vergason sent a sacri-fice fly off Tiger senior Chris Cot-ton to produce the final 4-0 score.

“Fair and simple, they just outplayed us this weekend,” Mainieri said.

Rather than focusing on money management, the program is designed to teach these players how to fix their personal brand by looking at what they could have done to better leverage it during their time in the NFL.

“These athletes had so much star power and credibility when you played in the league, and they messed it up,” Karam said. “They just didn’t leverage [their brand] when they were in the league. They didn’t do the au-tograph they should have done. They didn’t give a speech they could have given. ... They didn’t do the simple things that they wish they would have done, but they didn’t.”

Karam said after the former athletes learn what they could have done in the past to avoid their current problems, they can move forward with a bet-ter understanding of how they should build their brand in the future.

Karam chose to work with former athletes because younger, active players do not typically see the value in personal branding.

“Their world is fast and ex-citing,” Karam said. “They don’t

see it. If you spend your time trying to get them, nothing is go-ing to happen. I always saw the former players. They are forgot-ten the day they’re cut, and it didn’t feel good to be loved one day and forgotten the next.”

Karam spent years tweaking and pitching this program be-fore LSU finally bought into the idea.

“That’s a lot of failure,” Karam said. “Probably three times a month I would try to sell it. ... It took 11 years to convince LSU to do it, which I guess means I’m a bad salesman.”

It may have taken a while, but Karam’s dedication to this program is finally starting to pay off. It has been so successful in its first two years that LSU foot-ball coach Les Miles requested a similar program dedicated to LSU athletes.

This would give LSU athletes the opportunity to hit the ground running and possibly avoid finan-cial distress in the future.

“Even if they don’t go to the league, transitioning from an LSU athlete to just an every-day kid is a drop,” Karam said. “It is just like transitioning from the NFL. What you want to do while you are an LSU athlete is

leverage the LSU brand.”The program is currently

limited to football players, but Karam intends to expand it to al-low athletes from all sports.

“We could easily open it up to all sports,” Karam said. “But I have discovered that you have to make sure you’re good at it. It is like a specialty shop; you want to be good before you can expand.”

The early success of the pro-gram has led other schools to show interest in emulating the program after seeing the impor-tance of the service it provides.

Karam was happy to find these schools looking to jump on board, and said he developed the seminar so it could be cop-ied and reach as many athletes as possible.

“We are not here to trans-form their lives,” Karam said. “We just want them to leave with a little something. ... Hope-fully they leave with material and a better understanding of how they can continue on with their lives.”

cheered me on the last three years.”Safety Eric Reid joined Mingo

in the opening round when the San Francisco 49ers traded up to select him with the 18th pick in the draft.

Reid’s selection marked the seventh-straight draft in which an LSU defensive back has been se-lected.

“It’s a privilege to go to an organization as well-respected as San Francisco,” Reid said. “It’s definitely a dream come true. ... When I think of the 49ers, I think of great players. I have followed them for a long time.”

Linebacker Kevin Minter be-came the third-highest drafted line-backer in LSU history last Friday when he was selected in the second round by the Arizona Cardinals.

Defensive back Tyrann Ma-thieu will join Minter in Arizona as the Cardinals’ third round pick.

The 2011 Heisman final-ist, who was dismissed from the LSU football team in August for a violation of team rules, spent much of his time before the draft working out with a multitude of teams.

“I was filled with joy,” Ma-thieu said. “It’s been a long road. I am proud to be a member of the Arizona Cardinals. To join Patrick [Peterson] and Larry Fitzgerald, I am looking forward to it. I am hap-py someone believed in me. You have to have faith through the ups and the downs.”

Defensive tackle Bennie Lo-gan was selected two picks prior to Mathieu at the No. 67 spot by the Philadelphia Eagles, and defensive end Sam Montgomery rounded out Friday night for LSU when he was selected by the Houston Texans with the 95th overall pick in the Draft.

Three more Tigers found new homes Saturday. The Seattle Seahawks grabbed cornerback Tharold Simon and running back

Spencer Ware with their fifth and sixth round picks, respectively, and defensive end Lavar Edwards was selected in the fifth round by the Tennessee Titans. Edwards was the only LSU senior to be selected in this year’s draft.

In addition to LSU’s nine draft picks, several notable Tigers signed free agent contracts late Saturday. Running back Michael Ford and center P.J. Lonergan

joined the Chicago Bears, wide receiver Russell Shepard and punter Brad Wing were signed by the Philadelphia Eagles, and offensive tackle Chris Faulk joined Mingo in Cleveland.

‘We didn’t come out with �re. It’s the SEC; we should have. I think

and readiness to play.’ Alex Bregman

LSU freshman shortstop

Mark Zuckerberg is definitely one of those guys.

He’s one of those guys who says when the going gets good, it’s got to get better.

In a column I wrote earlier this month on networking, I highlighted him as a prominent college dropout who portrayed an excellent knack for solving problems before the masses even realized the problem.

But what if guys like this can’t help but keep their hands dipped into these projects for too long, develop-ing and progressing a problem solved long ago? Changing their brainchild so much it becomes an annoyance in itself?

Networking, Mark. Staying connected with friends through pic-tures, videos and messages. That’s all we wanted.

In reality, even that is some-times too much, as Facebook has be-come the primary study distraction and the greatest functioning time waster of all time.

With the likes of Instagram, Twitter and Vine, all I want to do on Facebook is stare at the screen and scroll.

But the multibillion-dollar cor-poration cannot possibly remain stagnant during the rat race with the fastest-paced evolution that is the world’s technology sector.

So Zuckerberg has added every ounce of demographic and personal customization of every user to the point that we now have a search en-gine that will really make you scratch your head.

The “Graph Search,” as it is called, opens the floodgates to virtu-ally any type of search you wish to run on your friends.

Who likes “The Walking Dead”? Found it. What pictures has said friend liked as a Facebook user? Yes, here, view all of them. Photos before 1990 featuring my friends in Seattle with dogs? Sure, you should want and be able to see this.

The beta testing has not been implemented across the Facebook grid for every user just yet, but if you find yourself yearning to step up your creeping game or gawk at the

endless possibilities, you can join the “waiting list.”

This is where the lines get mud-dled and hazy for me.

As of now, I can choose whether I want access to this unique search engine.

But I still have virtually no con-trol over what users can search about me or my friends, regardless of if I am using the search engine.

What if I (and I do) think it is creepy that all of this stockpiled and buried information can now be brought back to life?

God forbid I liked a Saints pho-to at any point in my life, and now someone sees this and believes me to harbor the same irrational beliefs as the Black and Gold’s finest.

I’m sure somewhere along the lines, deep in the terms and condi-tions agreement, I’m bound to this fate.

But the fact remains. The beta graph search is the ultimate stalking paradise, and it’s a bit much.

And Mark, not all of us are for it.

POLIVIN’ THE LIFEJOHN POLIVKA Columnist

photos by JEFF CHIU / The Associated Press

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg speaks about Facebook Graph Search on Jan. 15 at Facebook headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif. The new service lets users search their social connections for information about their friends’ interests and for photos and places.

This is what I should have done every day for the past four years instead of coming to school: Wake up, eat some sprinkled do-nuts, set a $50 bill on the front porch and cry a little bit as I watch it slowly drift away.

That way, at least my tuition and fees expenses could have made some lucky fellow relatively wealthy on a daily basis, instead of providing me with a degree in the most worthless profession of all, newspaper reporting.

Yep. It’s the worst. Newspa-per reporter ranked dead last on a list published by CareerCast of the 200 Best and Worst Jobs in 2013, behind the likes of taxi driv-ers, trash collectors, the mouse at Chuck E. Cheese and circus freaks.

But that wasn’t my real con-cern. I love my work.

The first thing I thought when I saw the list was, “What the heck is an actuary?” Besides, obvious-ly, someone who has the best job in the world (No. 1 on the list).

“Actuaries put a dollar value on risk,” said Lawrence Smolin-sky, the director of the actuarial science concentration in the math-ematics department.

Oooohhhhh. I get it. They tell my insurance provider that my premiums should cost more when I go bungee jumping in Costa Rica or if I consume the Heart Attack Grill’s Triple Bypass Burger more than once in 10 lifetimes.

Smolinsky said actuaries have great lives — good working conditions, low stress and high pay — basically the exact oppo-site of newspaper reporting jobs.

What’s my major again?Then Smolinsky reminded

me why I’m in journalism and not math.

First, actuaries must basically master economics and finance in

addition to a handful of sophisti-cated mathematics courses, such as probability, interest theory and the oxymoronic elementary sto-chastic processes (what?). And then, assuming they don’t go mad, they must pass a series of five ex-ams to earn the most basic of actu-arial certifications.

It’s not a profession for the weak-willed.

Because I’m graduating in less than three weeks, I missed my chance to enroll in most of the re-quired coursework.

Shucks.But just in case the whole re-

porter thing falls through, I had to

find a way to secure some back-ground work in actuarial science — after all, it is the best job in the world.

I quickly set out on a quest to gain some real world experience.

One of the classes, probabil-ity, or MATH 3355, focuses on emphasizing concrete problems and applications.

To catch up on what I missed, I journeyed out to a run-down part of the city and found some cracked sidewalks.

They had me stumped until I whipped out my pocket-sized jackhammer, busted up the bad boys in 50 short hours, filled

them with fresh concrete and then spread it out nice and smooth. Handprints sealed the deal. Prob-lem solved.

As for one of the other cours-es, I already knew mathematical statistics, or MATH 4056, would be a piece of cake. Part of the course description includes study-ing “regression” — and by de-fault, my choice of study made me a pro.

Plus, I’ve seen “Along Came Polly” at least twice, maybe even thrice, and if Ben Stiller can per-form actuarial duties, then really, how hard can it be?

Freshly equipped with the

skills for the world’s best job, I felt a new surge of confidence that inspired me to write this column, combining my most employable and unemployable skills into one confused creation.

Who’s ready for the real world?

TAYLOR BALKOM / The Daily Reveille

Newspaper reporter ranked as the worst job to have in 2013, according to CareerCast.com. Runners-up included lumberjacks, enlisted military personnel and actors.

The Daily Reveille wants to hear your reactions to our content. Go to lsureveille.com, our Facebook page and our Twitter account to let us know what you think. Check out what other readers had to say in our comments sec-tion:

In response to Kaci Yoder’s column “Frank vs. Fleetwood vs. Phoenix is no competition at Jazz Fest,” a reader had this to say:

“I’m so glad that Ms. Yoder enjoyed Channel Orange so much that the only song she could refer-ence in this article is “Bad Reli-gion.” Twice. Instead of writing a fluff opinion piece on what I agree

is the biggest scheduling conflict at this year’s Jazz Fest, it would have been better had Ms. Yoder actu-ally fleshed out some intelligent ideas on what each of the three art-ists had to present to an audience. Why all of the Phoenix hate? They just headlined two weekends of Coachella. But I guess those guys don’t know anything about pick-ing bands. I love Frank Ocean just as much as the next guy and agree that he is one of the most excit-ing new artists on the scene right now. But that being said, Ocean has already established himself as an artist who’ll be around for some time. Adding that Ocean is from New Orleans, I guess that he’ll be playing in the area again sometime soon. The last time he played in New Orleans was in late

2011. The last time Phoenix played was 2009. I’m betting that seeing Phoenix over Ocean will pay off in the long run. Plus, I’d take one of Phoenix frontman Thomas Mars’ legendary crowd surfing treks into the audience over what’s bound to be a mob packed with fanboys and fangirls over at Ocean’s stage. On the other hand, I’d gladly be one of those fanboys if I could easily split my time between Ocean, Phoenix, and Fleetwood Mac while still be-ing able to enjoy each of their per-formances. But since I know that’s impossible, I’ll be looking forward to an incredible show by Phoenix on Sunday night and looking for-ward to seeing Ocean in the future. More room for Ms. Yoder. Perhaps I’ll even be able to make it to the end of Fleetwood Mac’s set to see

them play some of their classics. Rumours is one of my all-time fa-vorite albums. Maybe I’ll be lucky enough to hear them play a few cuts from that. But probably not “Edge of Seventeen” since that’s technically a Stevie Nicks solo song. But hey, that’s just one music fan’s opinion.”- tcabal1

In response to Chandler Rome’s article “Alfred Blue issues apol-ogy for comments in Reveille,” a reader had this to say:

“There is no conflict between Blue’s original answer and includ-ing a ‘if they can play, they play’ type of comment on the end.

I’d have to say that Blue made the mistake of responding

to a question honestly. Sure, it’s a douchey answer but it’s reflective of sports culture and, in particular, deeeeeep south culture. I’m not aware of a state where there was a more one-sided anti-gay marriage vote than Louisiana, and I do hope any businesses or professors or en-tertainers or...well...anybody with a choice to go somewhere besides this benighted backwater will con-sider this kind of attitude and go to some place where they’re more welcomed.”- sleepyeyedboy

Mardi Gras beads around his neck, Mayer sounded rougher and more soulful than ever.

Swaying arm-in-arm to “Piano Man” with cans of beer in hand, the audience at Billy Joel’s raucous Saturday evening performance felt like one enormous Bourbon Street piano bar. Preservation Hall Brass Band made a surprise appearance during the 15-minute extravaganza of “Scenes From an Italian Restau-rant,” and when Joel came back on stage for his encore, he was sport-ing one of the band’s signature hats.

On the other side of the coin (or doubloon), many local bands also added their own flavor to mainstream tunes. From Dwayne Dopsie and the Zydeco Hellrais-ers’ riffing on “Are You Gonna Go My Way” to a funked-up cover of “Shake Your Money Maker” by Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk, ev-ery genre got the Cajun treatment. The Lost Bayou Ramblers even broke out an all-French, zydeco rendition of The Who’s “My Gen-eration,” wailing over fiddle and accordion, “C’est ma génération.”

The purely Louisiana acts also brought together the unexpected. At the Jazz and Heritage Stage, acts like Brice Miller and Ma-hogany Brass Band had complete strangers dancing with one another in the grass all weekend. Second Line clubs swept festivalgoers up in their march as they shook their feathers across the grounds.

Hometown band Bonerama’s

set experimented and innovated with sounds of New Orleans brass to introduce their roots to new au-diences. Meanwhile, Tremé’s icon-ic Rebirth Brass Band gathered one of the largest and most diverse crowds of the weekend at Congo Square. Regardless of if you had a washboard strapped to your chest, this weekend at Jazz Fest, every-one was Cajun.

Just like the “Pow-Wow Dance” — which one of the Yellow Bird Indian Dancers de-scribed as a ritual in which tribes of all kinds come together to perform their traditional dances

— Jazz Fest welcomes every age, race, sex and creed with open, se-quined arms.

Performances at Jazz Fest aren’t just about listening. They’re about connections — whether that connection is with the musician sweating behind the microphone, the assortment of strangers peel-ing crawfish around the same ta-ble or the frat guys standing next to you who know every word to Billy Joel’s set.

Those connections are what make Jazz Fest such a rich exam-ple of Louisiana spirit. Beyond the authentic music, handcrafted art

and spicy food, the sense of family holds it all together.

As the crowds cleared out and the humid air began to settle for the night, Jazz Fest’s first weekend marked a promising start for the festival. And with four more days to go, the best may be yet to come.

MORGAN SEARLES/ The Daily Reveille

A crowd gathers to watch Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience perform Friday at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on the Fair Grounds Race Course.

The Advocate winning their case makes [my lawyer’s] and my argument more legitimate,” Gallo said. “We’re not the only ones that had in mind that what LSU was doing violated open records law.”

Gallo said the Thursday hearing focused largely on the interpretation of the word “ap-plicant,” while Jimmy Fair-cloth, who represented LSU, said newly elected University President F. King Alexander was the only official applicant identified.

Presidential Search Commit-tee Chairman and Board member Blake Chatelain said the search process began with a list of about 100 potential candidates that was eventually narrowed down to six or seven by committee members, NOLA.com | The Times-Pica-yune reported.

Faircloth will likely take a different approach Tuesday than he did at the Thursday hearing, probably calling upon witnesses rather than deposition testimony like he did Thursday, Gallo said.

Gallo’s lawyer Scott Stern-berg said he expects Chatelain and Bill Funk, R. William Funk and Associates president and founder, to be witnesses for Tuesday’s hearing.
