Law Center realignment still needs final go-ahead
Deanna Narveson Staff Writer
University and Paul M. Hebert Law Center administrators have a few more hoops to jump through before the realignment of the two schools can become a reality, said Law Center Chancellor Jack Weiss. The University’s accrediting body, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), must approve the realignment, and the
Law Center’s accrediting body, the American Bar Association (ABA), must also give its approval before the two campuses are rejoined, said Gil Reeve, vice provost for academic programs. The realignment of the two schools, approved unanimously at the Board of Supervisors meeting in March, is set to rejoin the autonomous Law Center campus with the flagship in January 2015 if approval is gained from the schools’ accrediting bodies.
Weiss said the administrators of both schools are currently working to create a description of the realignment to submit to the ABA in late May and will also have to submit a document to the SACSCOC in September. The ABA will then send a group to visit campus and determine if the University’s plan for realignment satisfies all requirements and is truthful to the documents LAW CENTER, see page 15

BOSTON (AP) — A Boston mob associate who spent years on the lam in Idaho as a cattle rancher was sentenced to 28 years in prison Monday in a string of federal crimes, including the 1989 attempted murder of a man who later became the boss of the New England Mafia. Enrico Ponzo was convicted in November in the attempted killing of Francis “Cadillac Frank” Salemme. He plans to appeal his sentence. Ponzo fled Massachusetts in 1994 and initially lived in Arizona, where, prosecutors said, he helped manage a marijuana trafficking organization. He later settled in the small farm town of Marsing, Idaho, where he built a home with his longtime girlfriend and became a cattle rancher and stay-at-home father known as Jay Shaw. Ponzo, now 45, represented himself during the sentencing hearing and made a rambling speech as he pleaded with Judge Nathaniel Gorton to sentence him to no more than 15 years in prison. He downplayed his role in the marijuana operation and described himself as a “completely self-rehabilitated man”

in Idaho, where he devoted himself to raising his children and learning how to ranch. “I’ve done everything I can to be a productive citizen for at least the last 10 years,” Ponzo said. “I withdrew from all criminal activity.” But prosecutors recommended a 40-year sentence, saying Ponzo continued to commit crimes after he fled Boston, including helping
to run the marijuana distribution operation and later living off the illegal drug proceeds instead of finding a legitimate job. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Tabak said Ponzo continues to lie about why he left Boston and refuses to accept responsibility for his crimes. “He ran away because he didn’t want to stand trial and face justice on a serious attempted murder charge with the state,” Tabak said.
(AP) — The Louisiana Senate has refused to help a truck stop owner keep a tiger at his business. Eighteen senators voted Monday for Sen. Rick Ward’s proposal to let Michael Sandlin hang onto his tiger. The bill needed 20 votes to pass. Sandlin lost his license to keep the 550-pound Bengal tiger caged at his truck stop casino near Baton Rouge. He’s lost one court challenge but has a second lawsuit pending over the issue. Sen. J.P. Morrell, a Democrat from New Orleans, said the chainlink fence cage isn’t safe. He said the legislature shouldn’t be meddling in the court case. A Republican from Port Allen, Ward’s district includes Sandlin’s truck stop. He said no safety problems have occurred at the site.

Egypt sentences 683 to death The Associated Press MINYA, Egypt (AP) — The Muslim Brotherhood’s spiritual leader and more than 680 other people were sentenced to death Monday stemming from last year’s postcoup violence in the latest mass trial that was denounced in the West and by human rights groups as contrary to the rule of law. In a separate ruling Monday, a court banned the April 6 youth group — one of several that engineered the 2011 uprising against longtime leader Hosni Mubarak that set off nearly three years of
unrest. It ordered the confiscation of the group’s offices. The sentences for the 683 defendants were announced by Judge Said Youssef at a court session in the southern city of Minya that lasted only eight minutes. The verdicts are not final and are expected to be overturned. Under the law, once the defendants who were tried in absentia turn themselves in — which is all but 63 of the accused — their trials will start over. Monday’s court action drew international outcry.

Smith’s Dead week not so dead, students say equality housing bill killed James Richards Staff Writer
Quint Forgey Staff Writer
Louisiana lawmakers delivered yet another blow to the state’s LGBT community Monday, after a series of sweeping setbacks that have characterized the legislature’s apparent aversion to human rights. The House Civil Law and Procedure Committee killed a bill sponsored by Rep. Patricia Smith, D-Baton Rouge, that would have guaranteed LGBT community members, veterans, domestic violence victims and those with criminal records protection from housing discrimination. It is still currently legal in Louisiana for a landlord to kick any of these groups out of their homes. In late March, a similar bill aimed at prohibiting gay housing discrimination failed to make it out of committee. Monday’s decision comes two weeks after the legislature voted to uphold the state’s unconstitutional anti-sodomy laws and mere days after a lawmaker had to pull her bill guaranteeing gays protection from workplace discrimination because she was not able to garner enough votes. Legislators who voted against Smith’s bill were not properly representing their constituents, said Matthew Patterson, research and policy coordinator for Equality Louisiana, an LGBT advocacy group. “People want fair treatment for all their neighbors,” Patterson said. Patterson encouraged residents across the state to exercise their rights by speaking out on behalf of LGBT issues at legislative committee meetings. “Every single person in the state has a voice,” Patterson said. “This is one of those things people assume we’ve taken care of already.” Smith, who also sponsored the unsuccessful anti-sodomy bill, said she has received calls from across the nation regarding Louisiana’s recent gay rights battles. Smith said she thought nothing would change in the legislature until Louisianans stopped electing lawmakers who “don’t regard LGBT people as human beings.” “We have got to have people who respect people for who they are,” Smith said.
Lab final, oral exam, final project; the amount of work crammed into the week before finals is unfair, said Devonta Guidry, sociology sophomore. Textiles, apparel and merchandising sophomore Lyonel Nicholas was more blunt, calling the workload “stupid.” The week before final exams, commonly called dead week, is supposed to be a time for students to prepare without worrying about class work, said Student Government President Clay Tufts. It includes the concentrated study period, which is the five-day stretch immediately preceding the week of final examinations — Wednesday through Sunday — according to SG’s website. “It’s meant to be a kind of stress relief,” Tufts said, “especially for upper level courses, your final might be a paper that takes more than the night before to do.” Terry Morris, elementary education sophomore, said he only had a take-home final and a test due the Monday of dead week. He said it’s nice to have the rest of the week free. Other students have a different experience. Mechanical engineering junior Grant McIntyre said he has a lab final this week in addition to a major project due on Friday. He said the term Dead Week shouldn’t be used because the week before finals is always stressful.

“Dead week is a name people give this week, but nobody really pays attention to it,” he said. For those whose teachers keep with the spirit of the concentrated study period, there are still issues. Computer science freshman Kristen Barrett, who has to give a speech and take an exam today, said teachers have pushed all their important material into the two days before the concentrated study period begins. “I’m learning new material this week,” Barrett said. Tufts said the teachers he’s had experience with are usually very accommodating, asking students directly what they’d like to focus on during dead week. SG Vice President Taylor Lambert said some students have a different final exam schedule because of the nature of their majors. Certain majors have a final project due the week before scheduled finals, instead of an exam. Tufts said this year is a horrible example of how dead week is supposed to be because spring break was so late. He said LSU President F. King Alexander realized this, and sent out an email warning students they’d come back two weeks before finals. Tufts said the administration is looking at scheduling for next semester to fix issues.

Tufts, Lambert start work on fall semester Groovin’ location move discussed Jacquelyn Masse Contributing Writer
Newly inaugurated Student Government President Clay Tufts and Vice President Taylor Lambert are eagerly working on plans for the fall semester. “I’m looking forward to interacting with students and seeing how the initiatives benefit them,” Tufts said. One possible change Tufts and Lambert are discussing is the location of Groovin’ on the Grounds for next year. They are deciding between the Parade Ground and an indoor location, following the success and great feedback from students after this year’s River Center-based
Groovin’, Tufts said. They are also working with the Center for Academic Success on changes to the library. The center decided to move to the first floor of Middleton and replace the computer lab near CC’s Coffee. Tufts said he hopes University alumni will help fund renovations to the library to make more space and replace furniture. This is one of the reasons he created the Press Secretary position, which will allow SG to communicate with media such as The Advocate. Tufts said he also wants to keep the alumni informed about what is going on with SG. Tufts and Lambert are also working on the SG bus trip for the first football game of the fall semester in Houston against Wisconsin. They will be speaking at each orientation to boost the attendance rate for the trip.
A fitness and wellness week program aimed at students, called the Geaux Move initiative, is also in the works, Tufts said. They are discussing having physical activity events and seminars on healthy eating. “The goal is that we are the flagship University so we have to broadcast over the state and inform people about what LSU students are doing to improve their campus,” Tufts said. Tufts and Lambert will be at the University during the summer and said they are excited about the upcoming semester. “We worked really hard on these initiatives. It’s not something that we did the night before,” Lambert said. LAUREN DUHON / The Daily Reveille

Arkansans rush for cover against twister, 15 die The Associated Press VILONIA, Ark. (AP) — The sky turned black as the funnel cloud closed in, and Maggie Caro rushed with her husband and two children to a community shelter at a Vilonia school, where they were among the last to get inside the fortified gym before the doors were shut. “They were screaming, ‘Run! Run! It’s coming!’” Caro recalled. And then all hell broke loose. The half-mile-wide tornado carved an 80-mile path of destruction through the Little Rock suburbs Sunday evening, killing at least 15 people, flattening rows of homes, shredding cars along a highway and demolishing a brand-new school before it even had a chance to open. Officials said the death toll could have been worse if residents hadn’t piled into underground storm shelters and fortified safe rooms after listening to forecasts on TV and radio, getting cellphone alerts or calls or texts from loved ones, and hearing sirens blare through their neighborhoods. Also on people’s minds: memories of a weaker tornado that smashed through on April 25, 2011. It took nearly the same path and killed at least four people. “You had people breaking down because they were reliving three years ago,” Kimber Standridge said of the scene inside the community shelter, which she said was packed with perhaps more than 100 people. Standridge and a friend had gathered up seven children they were watching and sped through the streets just minutes before the twister hit. “When they shut the doors, we knew it was on us,” Standridge said. “Everybody hunkered down. There were a lot of people doing prayer circles, holding hands and praying.” Caro and Standridge said the
shelter was so solid they barely felt or heard the tornado. It was among a rash of twisters and violent storms across the Midwest and South that killed 17 people in all on Sunday. With forecasters warning of more of the same Monday across the South, at least three tornados flattened homes and businesses, flipped trucks over on highways and killed at least one woman in Mississippi. Local officials also reported six deaths in Alabama from a tornado, but state emergency officials could not immediately confirm those deaths. Most of the dead in Arkansas were killed in their homes in and around Vilonia, population 3,800. Firefighters on Monday searched for anyone trapped amid the piles of splintered wood and belongings strewn across yards. Hospitals took in more than 100 patients. The tornado that hit the town and nearby Mayflower was probably the nation’s strongest so far this year on the 0-to-5 EF scale, with the potential to be at least an EF3, which means winds greater than 136 mph, National Weather Service meteorologist Jeff Hood said. It wrecked cars and trucks along Interstate 40 north of Little Rock. Also among the ruins was a new $14 million intermediate school that had been set to open this fall. “It’s amazing to me how wide it was,” Mayflower Mayor Randy Holland said. “It was the loudest grinding noise I’ve ever heard.” Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe said officials didn’t yet have a count of the missing. He said the dead included a woman who was in a safe room but was hit by debris that went through the door. “Mother nature and tornadoes, sometimes you can’t explain how that works,” Beebe said. Three people died when the tornado tore a Paron home down to the

foundation. Emily Tittle, 17, said her family took shelter under the stairs of their two-story home before the twister ripped the walls away. She said her father, Rob Tittle; 20-yearold sister Tori and 14-year-old sister Rebekah were killed, and her six other siblings were taken to hospitals. In Vilonia, Raella Faulkner and Bobby McElroy picked through their demolished home, searching for family photos and a bow-and-arrow kit belonging to McElroy’s son. The two had taken refuge from the storm in an underground storm shelter about 10 feet from their home. “We were going to get married. Now I guess we’ll have to wait,” McElroy said. Homes in the South are frequently built on concrete slabs, without basements. Slabs are cheaper and easier, and the need to protect pipes from freezing by putting them below ground is not as great as it is in the North. For storm shelters, many people in the South and other parts of Tornado Alley in the nation’s midsection have holes dug into the sides of hills
with a door attached to the front. But these tend to be in older homes. Hall Sellers, 53, was in the Vilonia home he built a decade ago when the warnings grew more intense. He had been through plenty of storms, including the twister three years ago that damaged the house, but this time he and his wife scrambled across the street to another home that he owns, an older one with an old-fashioned storm cellar. “I don’t know,” Sellers said. “I don’t usually go to the cellar, but this just felt right this time.” A neighbor wasn’t so lucky. Sellers said his body was found 300 yards away in a field. “If I’d have known he was home, I would have gotten him into the cellar,” Sellers said. Sara Sutter, 23, was at her brother’s home when the storm hit. When the home was built a year ago, the builder urged construction of a safe room. On Sunday, Sutter, her mother, father and brother huddled in the safe room until the twister passed. “Building the safe room was a great decision,” Sutter said.
A separate twister killed one person in Quapaw, Okla., on Sunday evening, then crossed into Kansas, where it destroyed more than 100 homes and businesses and injured 25 people in the city of Baxter Springs. A farm building collapsed in Iowa from either a tornado or powerful straight-line winds, killing one woman. Contact The Daily Reveille’s news staff at news@lsureveille.com; Twitter: @TDR_news

First round of NBA playoffs prove to be exciting CURLY HAIR, DON’T CARE Tommy Romanach Sports Contributor It’s only been a little more than a week, but it’s become obvious that this year’s edition of the NBA playoffs is a special one. There is a chance the bottom four seeds in the West will win their series. There is a chance a team that won 38 of its first 48 games will lose in the first round against a team that won 38 games all season. And it seems like every night promises another down-to-the-wire game. There have been many great playoff series; I had to rank my top three. Here’s my list: 3. Thunder vs. Grizzlies If you didn’t watch a single minute of the regular season and then watched the first four games of this series, I doubt you could tell which team was the No. 2 seed and which was the No. 7 seed. The series took a turn when Memphis stole game two on the Thunder’s home court in overtime, and the Grizzlies have not blinked since. If not for Reggie Jackson having the game of his life in game four — while Kevin Durant went 5-for-21 — secondseeded Oklahoma City would be one loss from a shocking

first-round exit. I don’t think Durant will play as badly as he did in game four again this series, and I expect the Thunder to take this series in seven. These two teams are equal in talent, but Memphis blew its chance in game four. 2. Clippers vs. Warriors There are many things wrong with Donald Sterling’s infamous comments, and one of them is the shadow they have cast on what is turning out to be a great series.
It’s important to recognize the message the Clippers players sent during their warm-ups in game four, but to forget the actual game played would be a mistake. If Sterling gave us a reason to hate the league, then Stephen Curry gave us a reason to love it, making five 3-pointers in the first quarter and leading Golden State to an easy win. Sterling’s comments should not be forgotten, but neither should the games being played. The series has too many great players for it to be remembered
by the comments of a bigot. Despite Curry’s recent heroics, I still think the Clippers have too much depth to lose this series. It might be a different story if Andrew Bogut were healthy, but without him I see the Clippers taking control of the frontcourt. 1. Rockets vs. Blazers Four games played. Four games with both teams scoring more than 100 points. Three overtime games. I really had no other choice.
These two teams have been so evenly matched, home court has been almost meaningless, with the road team winning three times. It’s a shame these games usually start around 9 p.m. because the nation needs to recognize Lamarcus Aldridge, Damian Lillard, Dwight Howard and others for playing every game as if their lives are on the line. The Blazers has proven they can score as much as Houston, so unless the Rockets make defensive adjustments and James Harden starts taking batter shots, I don’t see them climbing out of a 3-1 hole. The best part of all of this is that we are only halfway through the first round. Fifteen of the 16 teams in the playoffs still have a legitimate chance to go to the second round, and competition only gets better from there. James Naismith, inventor of the game, said basketball was not an accident and was created to fill a need. After last week’s games, I feel that need more than ever.

Offense keeps heating up as Tigers prepare for Alcorn State Bugg will make first career start Lawrence Barreca Sports Writer
When the weather heats up, the LSU bats follow suit. Tennessee provided the Tigers with a challenge that surprised fans in Alex Box Stadium last weekend. The Volunteers pounded LSU’s pitching for the entirety of the three-game series, bringing 17 runs home, including 10 off Tigers’ relievers. That being said, the Tigers scored 20 of their own, winning the series with victories on Friday night and Sunday afternoon. It was a change of pace for a Tigers team that has heavily relied on pitching and defense to achieve victory this season. “I thought, for a consistent period of time, [the Tennessee series] was as well as we’ve swung the bats all year,” Mainieri said. “We got runners on, we advanced them and we had a lot of clutch hits. When we needed to rally, we did.” Mainieri said the offense is heating up at the right time, and the Tigers will need every hit

Bugg struggled in his most recent outing Saturday against Tennessee, when he tossed one inning and surrendered one hit, two runs and one walk. Mainieri said he wants to get his freshman back into a rhythm before the Tigers play Texas A&M this weekend. “We want to get him back out there right away,” Mainieri said. “Parker’s been so good for us all year. [He has] really inordinate composure and poise for a freshman. The other night, he felt like he let the whole team down. He’s a really intelligent kid, and sometimes really intelligent kids have a knack for over-analyzing things when they don’t go well.” Bugg’s pitching arsenal hasn’t been used effectively in 2014 because of his use in close contests, so Mainieri said he sees tonight as an opportunity to unleash the San Diego, Calif., native’s potential. “He’s been pitching late in the game where one bad pitch can hurt the team, so when you’re calling the pitches, you’re reluctant to use all of his pitches,” Mainieri said. “I think by starting the game, it will allow [LSU

Mainieri still searching for perfect lineup formula (.306) since LSU’s loss at Tulane on March 25. Mainieri has used the Middletown, Del., native in seven of the possible nine spots in the batting order. “Early in the year, we had to answer a lot of questions like, ‘Why are you playing so many different guys?’ This is why,” Mainieri said. “You get to this point in the year, and you don’t want to look at them as freshmen anymore. They have almost a full season under their belt. I don’t treat them as inexperienced players. They’ve been out there plenty, and they’re expected to do the job.” Fraley batted in the No. 5 spot twice and the No. 6 spot once during the squad’s series against Tennessee, collecting five hits. LSU sophomore right fielder Mark Laird says Fraley’s success shows how versatile the Tigers’ roster can be. “You’ll see big hits coming from people coming off the bench all the time,” Laird said. “It shows how ready everybody is to play and step up and prove themselves.

conference doesn’t understand the competitive advantage permanent partners give to certain institutions,” Alleva told NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune. “… In our league we share the money and expenses equally but we don’t share our opponents equally.” The current system requires each SEC Eastern or Western Division team to play a designated team from the opposite division. LSU has been playing Florida every season since 1971. Miles told The Advocate that he, Alleva and LSU President F. King Alexander are all united against the decision. “We play the toughest schedule in America in our conference, and then we have the bias of the permanent partner,” Miles told The Advocate on Monday. The bulk of the criticism stems from LSU having to play Florida every season as the Tigers’ permanent opponent, while Ole Miss and Mississippi State play Vanderbilt and Kentucky each year, respectively. Florida won two National Championships during the BCS era and seven conference championships since the SEC began playing a championship game in 1992. Alabama’s cross-division opponent is Tennessee on “The Third Saturday in October” while Auburn and Georgia play in the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry in the conference. “I understand Alabama-Tennessee and Auburn-Georgia for the history, but that’s only four schools,” Alleva told NOLA.com. “The rest were voting in their own self-interest. They could have kept
those games and the rest of us rotated. That was brought up but voted down. … I’m not pushing for the self-interest of LSU. I’m pushing for the equity.” SEC Commissioner Mike Slive said in a news release the decision was made with the goal of preserving the deep-rooted traditions of the SEC. “Tradition matters in the SEC, and there is no denying that tradition was a significant factor in this decision because it protects several long-standing cross-division conference rivalries,” Slive said. “It has been a hallmark of the SEC over our history to be able to make continued progress while also maintaining traditions important to our institutions.” The SEC also voted to maintain the current eight-game conference schedule, which leaves the SEC, Atlantic Coast Conference and the Big 10 Conference as the only remaining power-five leagues to not move up to a nine-game system. Slive did announce a new addition to the league’s scheduling system following Sunday’s vote. All SEC institutions will be required to schedule at least one opponent from the ACC, Big 12, Big 10 or Pac 12 each season. LSU already has a home-andhome series scheduled with Wisconsin and Syracuse through the 2017 season. But the Tigers have a gap from 2018-20 where no games are scheduled before series with UCLA and Arizona State start up from 2021-24. Alleva also said in a letter posted on LSUsports.net that he spoke with Slive about protecting the tradition of Saturday night in Death Valley.

· LSU’s record against its cross-division opponent Florida is 7-9 during the BCS era. · Florida holds a 94-36 record and two BCS National Championships in the past 10 seasons.

Lalonde said Herron admitted to stealing the bike, which was reported stolen by the victim on April 23 from the bike racks by the Huey P. Long Field House. Lalonde said the other individual who was spotted riding the bike is not considered to be involved in the crime. In a text message to The Daily Reveille, LSU spokesman Michael Bonnette said LSU coach Les Miles is aware of the arrest, has met with Herron, and the former five-star recruit will be disciplined internally. Herron was arrested just before 1:30 p.m. He was issued a summons and released. The investigation is still ongoing, according
to Lalonde. Miles, Athletic Director Joe Alleva and basketball coach Johnny Jones spoke at the first stop of the Tiger Atheltic Foundation’s Tiger Tour in Shreveport on Monday night. Adressing a small group of media members, Miles said he was surprised to hear of Herron’s arrest. “I can tell you he’s a wonderful kid,” Miles told The Shreveport Times. “I can’t imagine he’ll do anything like that again. Prank is more the intent and naïve is more the reason.”

The apocalyptic event that is finals week is almost upon us, and after a short and cold spring, summer is right around the corner. That means summer TV season is here – and with a fresh round of new contenders in the ring alongside a few returning heavyweights, it’s sure to be a good one. Here’s a rundown of what will probably be the best series this season.
POLL Which summer show are you most excited for? Vote at lsureveille.com
‘The LEFTOVERS’
page 9
The Daily Reveille picks the summer season’s best new shows and returning favorites.
‘LOUIE’
The last season of Louis C.K.’s cult comedy will begin May 5. Season three took C.K. from crashing a motorcycle to almost drowning to trashtalking a dead man at his own funeral. These “Seinfeld”-esque antics are sure to escalate in the last few episodes of “Louie,” making it a must-watch.
‘THE MAYA RUDOLPH SHOW’
On June 29, HBO will engineer the apocalypse — on TV, anyway. On “The Leftovers,” the world will effectively end, and anyone who isn’t presumably beamed up to heaven will be placed in a suburban neighborhood abandoned by the rest of humanity.
As one of the funniest people in the business, it’s astounding that Maya Rudolph hasn’t yet hosted her own show. On May 19, NBC will finally give her a chance to do so. The show is currently slated for a single-episode release, but the success will likely mean a full season’s worth of material.
‘TOGETHERNESS’
‘ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK’
Cult indie directors Mark and Jay Duplass have always made wild card films, as far as quality is concerned, but with the support of HBO, the brothers responsible for “Cyrus” and “Jeff, Who Lives at Home” will produce one of the most interesting releases of the season. Not much is known about “Togetherness” except that the show will be about a pair of couples living together.
Jenji Kohan’s hit comedy series returns to Netflix on June 6. The trailer teases the arrival of a new cellmate in the form of Vee (Lorraine Toussaint), the return of drug smuggler Alex Vause and main character Piper Chapman’s continued descent into violent insanity. There is no doubt that this will be awesome.

Louisiana seersucker brand keeps historic style alive
Meg Ryan Entertainment Writer
Louisiana summers are one thing: hot. Joseph Haspel Sr. realized this in 1909 and created his brand, Haspel, to design clothing to withstand the New Orleans heat. He learned about a fabric from India called seersucker and used it as the material for his suits. The idea clicked, and soon Haspel suits were not only all over the French Quarter, but also found
coast to coast because of their lightweight fabric and easy maintenance. Years later, Laurie Haspel Aronson, Joseph Haspel Sr.’s great granddaughter, has taken the brand back under family control and is reigniting the brand for today’s man. “Haspel is our family’s brand – our name. As a young child, I saw the pride that my grandparents took in our brand, and today, I feel that same emotion,” Aronson said. Aronson brought in Sam
Shipley and Jeff Halmos, designers of Shipley and Halmos, to help update the classic design. “Taking control of Haspel has enabled us to do so many things that have not been done in many decades,” she said. “For one, our clothing is now tailored in the U.S. Consumers were begging for topquality products made in the USA, so we listened.” Aronson said Haspel has updated the seersucker suit by SEERSUCKER, see page 11

New television has affected the American blockbuster Of the thousands of American films released in the Hollywood era, Steven Spielberg’s “Jaws” is inarguably one of the most significant. “Jaws” is credited with the creation of the most important aspect of WILL KALLENBORN Entertainment Writer the New Hollywood era: the summer blockbuster. Though earlier films have been referred to as “blockbusters” and have made more money, “Jaws” was the first American film to totally permeate the mindof the cultural hive of the time. Since it captivated audiences and made a ton of money, film studios have desperately been attempting to recapture that same energy. The modern blockbuster has been characterized by action, excitement and, more recently, failure. Film studios, not known for taking chances with their money, have seen an increased number of million-dollar failures. Films like “The Lone Ranger” and “After Earth” have cost studios a great deal of money despite having marketable actors. Hopefully, this means studios are learning that it takes more than famous actors and expensive special effects to get people into the theater, especially with all the competition they now have on television. In recent years, television has changed drastically. Television has always been hugely profitable, but with the advent of modern technology, the kinds of
stories we can tell through the medium are advancing. TV can have the budget of a huge film (estimates say “Game of Thrones” costs $6 million per episode), the biggest stars in Hollywood (“House of Cards’” Kevin Spacey) and the same kind of cultural fervor that “Jaws” had (the finale of “Breaking Bad” had more than 10 million live viewers). Of course, television has always been a staple of American culture, but these new TV shows are drawing attention in an entirely new way. These shows seem to be tapping into the same kind of energy that has, until now, normally been associated with massive studio films. “Game of Thrones” is one of the greatest examples of this trend. The television series has drawn the attention of thousands of die-hard fans in a way that a film has not been able to in quite some time. From a producer’s standpoint, television makes sense. There is less risk because the money does not come directly from the consumer and there is the possibility of replicating success with a certain degree of ease. From a creator’s standpoint, television offers room to push the boundaries of what is acceptable in modern media. It is undeniably a new age of storytelling. While the shifting roles of television and film show fewer rules and more trends, it is both interesting and useful to understand where the society’s interests lie. While the future of storytelling remains a mystery, we can be sure that the stories being told now will have a great effect on those yet to come.

Carver Theater to reopen in New Orleans’ Treme neighborhood
Venue returns after 35-year hiatus Joshua Jackson Entertainment Writer
On Wednesday, The Historic Carver Theater, located in the musically rich Treme neighborhood of New Orleans, will reopen its doors. Dino Marshall, managing director of the Historic Carver Theater, said the reopening was timed perfectly because they can attract publicity from the second weekend of Jazz Fest. “This is probably the oldest and most legendary theater for New Orleans music and culture,” Marshall said. After 35 years and $8 million in renovations, the theater will take part in International Jazz Day to celebrate the 16 years of the New Orleans Musicians’ Clinic. The day will be filled with a collection of music and film. The theater, named after scientist George Washington Carver, was established in September of 1950. It stands as one of the

making stripes available in a variety of colors, no longer just the basic blue. Bobby Berthelot, manager at Perlis’ Baton Rouge store, said Haspel has also updated the fit of the suit. He said they’ve changed the pants to a plain front and trimmed the body of the jacket while also raising the arm hole. Berthelot said the suit now has an overall slimmer silhouette, making it more modern for today’s man. “They don’t want to wear one that fits like their grandfathers,” Berthelot said. Aronson said Shipley and Halmos are very aware of the suit’s fit. “While today’s Haspel is perhaps more fitted than designs of the past, the high-quality cottons are soft and easy to wear,” Aronson said. “They have also incorporated incredible details to the trim, outlining a super silhouette, worthy of showing off to your friends.” Berthelot said this attention to detail, along with bringing the construction of the suit back to the U.S., has made the Haspel suit better. Haspel doesn’t limit its customers to just a two-piece seersucker suit, however. The brand encourages the items to be worn as separates and have also expanded to a sportswear collection. “Throw on a seersucker jacket with jeans, shorts or let it substitute for an outerwear piece. The pants can be worn with one of our new seersucker pocket tees or a knit shirt too,” Aronson said. Berthelot said he’s also seen a seersucker jacket with distressed jeans worn on the streets of New
first theaters to focus on AfricanAmerican entertainment and it supported desegregation. In 1980, the Historic Carver Theater was shut down and became a medical clinic in 1984. In 1991, ophthalmologist Eugene Oppman purchased the property and continued to run it as a medical clinic until Hurricane Katrina flooded the building in August of 2005. After returning to New Orleans, Oppman decided to reopen the property as a theater. The process of gathering the necessary funding delayed the renovations, but now the theater is complete and ready to become a part of the New Orleans culture. Treme is home to a mixture of Creole and African-American culture. It also boasts a proud jazz heritage from artists such as Lucien Barbarin and Alphonse Picou. Marshall said the theater is another vital piece of the neighborhood’s history. “The Carver is a historic part of music. It’s a place where Irma Thomas was discovered, and Jackie Wilson came to sing,” Marshall said. At 10:30 a.m., a ribbon York City. Berthelot also shows off the collection of Haspel’s sportswear that Perlis has in stock. He said the button-up shirts are made in preppy fabrics with smaller collars and trimmer fits. He also shows a plain white Haspel T-shirt with a round neck and a side pocket made out of white seersucker. “Haspel owns seersucker, but we’ve been able to create a lifestyle brand that goes way beyond seersucker,” Aronson said. “Our tradition of top quality, fun, wearable clothes began in 1909. Who else can say that?” Berthelot agrees. He said seersucker is “taking over the industry,” and at his Perlis store, the seersucker suits have been outselling any solid cotton suit. “Seersucker is king right now for summer suits,” Berthelot said. Aronson said there’s nothing more important than being confident in the clothes someone puts on. “In order to look good, you must feel good. A suit should not be oversized. Don’t be afraid to experiment with a different color or fit than you are used to,” she said. After years of changing ownership and production, the Haspel brand is back under the family name and designing what they design best with a modern twist. “I feel certain that my grandparents are having their 5 o’clock cocktails and smiling upon us, as they continue to see the brand and the lifestyle that they created put some fun into the lives of so many people,” Aronson said.

cutting ceremony will take place at the theater. Musical documentary “Rockin’ the Opera House: Dr. John” will be shown at 5 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. A discussion panel precedes the film’s first showing, including musician Dr. John and playwright Vernel Bagneris, who will talk about their memories of the Historic Carver Theater and its role in Treme. Musician Big Chief Donald Harris, leader of the Congo Square Nation, will finish the night as he performs his signature style of New Orleans jazz meets New York jazz. Tickets for the showing of “Rockin’ the Opera House: Dr. John” with the discussion panel are $21, and the second screening of only the film is $10.

The remote-controlled DJI Phantom drone with an attached GoPro 3 camera is used by Brian Tercero of Keller Williams Realty to create a high definition video of a property on April 18 in Santa Fe, N.M.
Drones need more legislative regulation NEUTRAL GROUND Eli A. Haddow Columnist It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a ... what is it? It’s a drone, and if our captains of the Internet retail industry have their way, it could be flying over your backyard almost every day. This crazy notion began in December when Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos, told “60 Minutes” the online hegemon would use “octocopters” to deliver parcels to customers’ doorsteps. Aside from the obvious scenario that this was a marketing ploy during the Christmas holiday, drones could be the next revolution in package conveyance.
This is just the most recent spate of bad news for the United States Postal Service, which has been losing its grip on the industry for the last hundred or so years. But the danger is, as the atmospheric delivery apparatus proliferates around the country, we could lose what semblance of privacy we have left — that is, if we have any at all. The last time I checked, neither the government nor any private entity had the means to look inside our homes. Drones could be used for just that, and a recent bill in the Louisiana Senate seeks to curtail these incidents before they happen. After failing to pass last Monday, Sen. Dan Claitor, R-Baton Rouge, re-introduced the Deterrence of Reconnaissance Over Noncriminal Entities,

or DRONE Act, on Tuesday. The bill would prohibit government or privately owned unmanned aircraft from conducting surveillance on private property. The bill passed after Claitor invited the room to Google search an infringing drone sold at Brookstone, which he said could be used by snoopers to take images of people inside their homes, according to NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune. Apparently there was no law on the books preventing this. Not that there is now, because the bill has yet to pass the House, much less garner the signature of Gov. Bobby Jindal. But the issue is not resolved in the mere prevention of a few peeping Toms. Although this law certainly should exist, our legislators may want to think toward the future and a world in which our
retail industry rules the skies. Thousands of drones could potentially be buzzing around just above street level to relieve us of the tantalizing wait between an online order and its dastardly slow delivery within five to seven business days. Why business days? Most of us are lazy seven days of the week, so just give us our stuff so we can use it. We should be aware of the danger that comes with letting companies that rely on our consumption come more into our lives. And imagine the noise — walking around campus would be like attending a soccer match during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

drones are destined to take the skies, then we have to lay the necessary ground rules on what they can and cannot do. This seems like a foregone conclusion, but just look at how long it took the government to ban texting and driving.

You have a right to know your constitutional rights BLUE COLLAR SCHOLAR Justin Stafford Columnist Many students will come face-to-face with Johnny Law at some point if they haven’t already, and an understanding of basic rights can come in handy when the blue lights start flashing. I’ve had my share of run-ins with the police. All were traffic stops, but I felt that some legal lines and my constitutional rights were infringed on at times. Over spring break, a local Mississippi cop profiled me by the car I was driving, followed me for miles and then trailed behind me as I turned into a parking lot. He hit the lights on his SUV. Pretty soon, I was unzipping my suitcase, opening up the pencil pouches in my book bag and anything else the officer wanted to see inside. The lawman seemed a little puzzled after he didn’t find what he was looking for and what
I’m sure he thought was certainly there. I’m aware of my rights, but sometimes it’s just easier to tell them to go ahead and get it over with. When asked why he wished to search my vehicle, he responded, “Just doing my job.” It would be very tricky to ensure that all of those with a badge “just doing their job” upheld the American public’s rights and liberties. Although, an individual who knows their guarantees and protections is at an advantage. However, if a student is ever involved in a similar situation, here are some pointers and useful information. Students should become acquainted with the Fourth Amendment, the Fifth Amendment and what exactly probable cause means. Police usually need to obtain a warrant to search you or any of your things. If it’s a traffic stop, an officer only needs probable cause or an admission of guilt to search your vehicle. Probable cause means there
are facts or evidence in plain view that would lead a reasonable person to believe a crime was committed. Speeding, dark window tint or loud exhaust is not probable cause. The cop must see in plain sight or smell some form of illegal contraband. Therefore, the clear cover over my license plate was not a legal reason to search my car. My permission was the only way the officer could look at my things. You’re protected by the Fourth Amendment. The amendment limits the power of the police to search people and their property, make arrests or seize property. If I did not allow the search of my car, I would have been well inside my legal rights. It’s your right to refuse searches. It’s important to note that you are not required to answer an officer’s questions with an in-depth response nor admit to breaking the law. In fact, a student does not have to really speak in these instances, but short and direct re-
plies can help things go smoothly. The Fifth Amendment assures civilians protection against self-incrimination. The cop might ask you how fast you were going. If you answer 65 mph and it’s a 55 mph zone, that is an admission of guilt. It’s in your best interest to answer that you do not know. In any instance, it is important to understand your rights so things can be done safely, smartly and efficiently. From my experience, small town police and sheriffs do not fully understand or just don’t adhere to their legal limitations and civilians’ constitutional protection. It is your right to know your rights, and civil liberties organization Flex Your Rights is there to help. Flex, an educational nonprofit started in 2002, focuses on improving the constitutional literacy of all Americans. To accomplish this, Flex creates and distributes the most compelling and practical know-your-rights media content. Flex provides various resources and information with the
goal of filling courts with more sympathetic and intelligent plaintiffs, empowering community members to push back against unjust stop-and-frisks and other invasive police practices to influence entire police departments to respect citizens’ constitutional rights. If you find yourself in a situation like mine, it’s best to thoroughly know your rights, should you choose to utilize them. Having an understanding of your protections and guarantees is important, not only for yourself, but also in preserving those rights and creating awareness throughout law enforcement to do the same.

Attitude about STIs dangerous for sexually active OFF WITH HER HEAD Jana King Columnist As you head to Tigerland next Saturday night to celebrate the end of finals week and the beginning of summer, sexually transmitted infections will likely be the last thing on your mind. Nineteen million Americans contract STIs each year. While that number might seem daunting, keep in mind that the average adult human contracts the common cold twice a year. Both are treatable, and there are measures you can take to keep from infecting others. Your sexual education probably included a lot of scare tactics to keep you from having sex. And unfortunately, sexually transmitted infections are the biggest pawn. But a proper and effective sexual education course would teach students how to deal with a positive status, how to engage in healthy and safe sexual activity during the infection and how to tell a potential partner about their positive status. But instead, we’ve kept quiet about sex. And by doing so, we have only made it more likely that those with an STI will go untested and continue to spread the infection. The easiest way to manage an STI is to catch it early. If you participate in risky sexual behavior, get tested immediately. Call the
Student Health Center, make an appointment for an STI test. I might be the first person to tell you this, but it’s true: getting an STI is not the worst thing that can happen to you. In many ways, it’s just like any other sort of sickness. But there is a stigma attached to sexually transmitted infections because of the sexually transmitted part, when they aren’t really a special kind of sickness. HPV is a common virus that infects more than half of sexually active humans at some point. There are 100 different strains of HPV, each manifesting in different ways. Some strains result in topical warts on body parts other than genitalia. Cold sores, or fever blisters, are another common virus known as herpes simplex virus. That’s right, herpes on your mouth. This form of herpes can be transmitted through sharing drinks or kissing. STIs range from annoying but harmless to cancer causing, just like any other virus. Most are curable through antibiotics or topical creams. But all are manageable. Contracting an STI is not the end of your life — or your sex life. But that isn’t an excuse to have unprotected sex. In fact, knowingly spreading an STI to a partner is punishable by law. You’re more likely to contract a sexually transmitted infection through having sex, but it shouldn’t be fueling a fear in your sex life. The shame that comes from contracting an STI is one of the underlying causes of the

rate in which they spread in our society. When we identify a chance of failure in any situation, we can begin to fear it. Because of a fear of having an STI, many choose not to get tested for them. It’s frightening to take a test when it could go either way. Pretending that sexually transmitted infections are
uncommon and that only dirty or sexually promiscuous people will contract them is dangerous. Any sexually active human being, no matter age, gender, sexual orientation or race is at risk for an STI. The best form of protection is to be proactive. So when you head out to Tigerland, make sure you’ve got protection for both you and your partner.
And then don’t sweat it. Jana King is a 19-year-old communication studies sophomore from Ponchatoula, La.

Miss. abortion law reconsidered The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A Mississippi law requiring doctors at abortion clinics to have admitting privileges at local hospitals would effectively shut down the state’s only abortion clinic and pose an unconstitutional burden on women seeking abortions, an attorney told a federal appeals court Monday. Julie Rikelman argued on behalf of Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which said it has been unable to obtain such privileges for the doctors at its clinic. U.S. District Judge Daniel P. Jordan III let the law take effect in July 2012, after the clinic sued the state. But Jordan blocked the state from closing the clinic while it tried to comply. In March, a three-judge panel of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a similar Texas law that requires admitting privileges. However, during Monday’s arguments, members of a different three-judge 5th Circuit panel noted that the law in Mississippi could force women seeking abortions to travel to other states. The panel gave no indication when or how it would rule but did raise the possibility that the Mississippi law posed what they called an “undue burden” on women in the state. “It seems to me you’ve got a steep hill to climb when you say the only clinic in the state is closing,” Judge E. Grady Jolly told attorney Paul Barnes, of the Mississippi Attorney General’s Office. Barnes argued that the law was a legitimate, constitutional exercise of state power. The Supreme Court has held that the Constitution guarantees the right to an
abortion, but not an unsafe one, Barnes told judges. And he said the law is designed to ensure the health and safety of Mississippi women. Opponents of the law have repeatedly said the law’s true purpose is to end abortion in the state and have pointed to Gov. Phil Bryant’s statements that he wants to do just that. Barnes, however, noted that Bryant has stressed that the law in question was a move to protect women’s health. Health concerns deserve consideration, Judge Emile Garza said, noting that complications can arise from usually safe, routine procedures. “Even in a colonoscopy, if that goes south, you’re talking about a life or death situation,” he told Rikelman. Rikelman said the Jackson clinic has competent doctors, with the ability to transfer patients who need emergency treatment. Forcing women to other states effectively denies Mississippi the ability to regulate doctors who perform abortions on Mississippians,
he said. Barnes tried to cast doubt on whether the law would truly deny abortions in Mississippi, citing statistics showing that more than 3,000 women left the state for abortions in 2011 and that there are numerous municipalities in surrounding states where the procedures are available. Opponents of the law note that Louisiana is considering a law requiring admitting privileges and that Alabama has such a law moving through the courts. The courtroom was packed during Monday’s argument, but with little attention outside. A handful of abortion-rights supporters stood on the sidewalk. Two Houston men held up a handmade banner expressing support for the “pink house,” a nickname for the Jackson abortion clinic.

submitted, Weiss said. The SACSCOC and the ABA will both meet in December, and if both approve, the Law Center would rejoin the University after 38 years of separation. The Law Center became an autonomous campus within the LSU System in 1977 after years of effort on the part of the school’s thendean and current namesake. Weiss said in March the realignment would allow the school to better compete in today’s law school world and provide students with the resources needed to receive a practical and interdisciplinary law education. LSU President F. King Alexander said in March the realignment would allow the University to better develop a pre-law program and communicate with more transparency between the two academic units. In the last 10 years, the number of students applying to law schools in the state has dropped by more than half, meaning the school has to compete more with other law schools to vie for a piece of the now smaller student group, Weiss said.
