1.	 Put your brand in front of an engaged audience
Sponsoring an event allows your company to focus your energy
on engaging the right audience instead of spending time and
money on marketing the event. It’s a turn-key way to position
your brand in front of the audience attending the event.
2. Events are great for lead capture
Having a physical presence at events and using contests
and giveaways as engagement tactics can generate
new customer leads for remarketing to in the future.
3.	 Enjoy the brand affinity sponsorships
and sponsored events offer
Your brand has the ability to be seen alongside
other content that people attending an event value.
This connection results in a lift of brand affinity
and positions your brand as a leader to that
audience segment.
4. Give people the
chance to try your brand
Events allow you the ability to be creative
in your marketing and event activation.
Handing out free trials, products and other
services your brand offers engages your
audience in a new way and can lead to new
customers and free publicity, even after the event.
5.	 Sponsorships and sponsored
events can deliver a higher ROI
Your brand has the ability to achieve
high-impact visibility and engagement to
a targeted, more-qualified audience in a short
amount of time. By being more focused in your
marketing, while being relevant and engaging
with your audience, you have the ability to
significantly optimize your return on investment.
FIVE REASONS why special events build brand loyalty,
engaging a targeted, more-qualified audience.

Why advertise on
these channels:
Incorporating a mobile campaign will provide you with a cohesive
and robust program to reach local consumers during various times
of day and on their preferred electronic device.
Rising smartphone adoption, fast-expanding 4G networks,
along with more time spent on mobile devices is driving the explosive
growth of mobile ad spending. Additionally, companies like Google,
Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft are devoting more attention to mobile
media, mobile devices, and therefore, mobile advertising.
Mobile is an excellent complement to any desktop campaign.
While at work, most website users utilize their desktop to browse
the web. In the evenings, we see a decline in desktop but an
increase in tablet and smartphone activity.
We also see consumers often multi-tasking with simultaneous
usage of different devices. With this in mind, our mobile offerings
continue to grow and diversify.

DIGITAL DISPLAY
Premium Display Advertising
Digital display advertising helps your marketing messages get
in front of the right audience.
1. Targeted
Use demographic, behavioral and contextual targeting
to reach different audience segments important to your
business across the web and on all platforms. Reduce
wasted impressions with a targeted digital approach.
2. Personalized Messaging
Tailor your message to resonate with each
audience segment and test different variations to see
what performs best. Adding in retargeting allows you to
serve a follow-up message to your audience based on
their previous behavior on your site or landing page. This
personalized approach helps raise conversion rates.
3. Interactive/Engaging
Digital display allows for video and rich-media elements, such
as animation and user-controlled interaction. It creates an
engaging platform that is on par with television, but also lets
the user continue the engagement instantly on your landing
page or website. Engagement builds branding and leads the
user down the consumer journey path.
4. Trackable
All campaigns come with reporting that measures multiple
key performance indicators such as click-through rates,
engagement rates and conversion rates. With the proper
analytics set-up, we can measure your return on investment with
each campaign.
Benefits of using:
What is Gravity?
Courier Journal’s Gravity ad unit is the world’s first IMAX-style advertising
experience. Your cinematic brand video is showcased within a fluid design, full-

After years in the planning and construction, the new Abra-
ham Lincoln Bridge — the centerpiece of the Downtown
Crossing portion of the $2.3 billion Ohio River Bridges Project
— is expected to open to traffic early Monday. l “A lot of work
has to be done between now and then,” Andy Bar-
ber, the bridges project manager for the Ken-
tucky Transportation Cabinet, said at a news
briefing under the bridge Thursday morning at
Waterfront Park. l But he said officials are confi-
dent that the new bridge parallel to the Kennedy
Memorial Bridge, for the first time, will begin
carrying Interstate 65 traffic by around 5 a.m.
Monday. l For the next two weeks or so, the Ken-
nedy will remain open for southbound I-65 motorists. But be-
fore Christmas, highway officials will close all but one lane of
the Kennedy and switch the traffic pattern so the Lincoln is
carrying two southbound lanes and three northbound lanes of
traffic. The one Kennedy lane will remain open to get south-
bound I-65 traffic to I-64 and I-71.

FRANKFORT, Ky. - Funding short-
falls at Kentucky Retirement Sys-
tems jumped by nearly $1 billion
Thursday as trustees lowered the in-
vestment outlook for two sorely un-
derfunded pension plans that cover
state workers and police.
The KRS board, citing problems
with cash flow, revised down expecta-
tions in both plans from 7.5 percent to
6.75 percent, a move that will ulti-
mately drive up funding needs in the
state budget.
Under Kentucky law, the lower
projection is not factored into the
state’s retirement contributions until
fiscal year 2019. However, trustees
voted Thursday to forward the infor-
mation to lawmakers for considera-
tion in the new budget that begins in
July.
KRS Executive Director Bill Thie-
len said the change increases funding
needs by about $20 million, half of
which typically comes from the state
general fund. That’s on top of $60 mil-
lion in additional allocations owed to
the system next year.
Contributions in later years are
onlygoingtobehigherifthenextbud-
get relies on the old rate, Thielen said.
Jim Carroll, co-founder of the pen-
sion watchdog group Kentucky Gov-
ernment Retirees, said lowering the
rate underscores the urgency to pro-
videthesystemwithmoremoney,and
he cautioned that officials have no
margin of error at this point.
“Obviously, it’s difficult for the
General Assembly, but they shot
themselves in the foot - they did not
put in the contributions,” he said.
“Sure it puts them in a bad spot, but

The movable object meets the resist-
ible force.
A college football program seemingly
stuck in neutral seeks to shift gears
against a rival most recently running in
reverse.
A game that barely registers beyond
state borders will be played to determine
whether Kentucky and Louisville both
finish at 6-6 in a year when the Common-
wealth’s preeminent program is based in
Bowling Green.
If you feel a yawn coming on, you’re
not alone. In a good year, the Governor’s
Cup game is to Kentucky-Louisville bas-
ketball as the Oaks is to the Derby. This
year, it’s more like a match race between
two claimers that can’t get out of their
own way.
The prediction here is Louisville 31,
Kentucky 23, but it is made without much
conviction. The Cardinals rate a slight
edge because of the progress they had
shown prior to the first half of last week's
game at Pittsburgh, but that bewildering
effort, the Cards' continuing instability at
quarterback and the results of the non-

LEXINGTON, Ky. – When
Kentucky hosts Louisville in its
regular-season finale at noon Sat-
urday there will be more at stake
than rivalry bragging rights.
“We put ourselves in this posi-
tion by a few miscues late in the
season, with the Vandy game in
particular,” UK head coach Mark
Stoops said. ‘It is what it is, and
now we need to go out and play
well in this game. It always has
importance. I think it’s very important to us this
year.”
A victory against Louisville would send Ken-
tucky to its first bowl game since 2010.

more important to the future of Louis-

Great news! “Dear JCPS” is a new
grassroots organization made up of
JCPS teachers and parents engaging in
advocacy before – and demanding ac-
countability after – JCPS board deci-
sions. In less than six months, we have
amassed a social media community of

cerns about JCPS policies and practices
in an attempt to provide active, critical

As an active, critical parent, my ef-
forts to provide constructive feedback
up the chain within the administration
have often been ignored, mismanaged,
micromanaged, disputed, minimized

ward there must be a renewed approach

Jefferson Circuit Judge Olu Stevens
is anticipated to resume hearing cases
Monday on the heels of mediation with
Jefferson County Commonwealth’s At-
torney Tom Wine.
The two met for “several hours” Fri-
day on the orders of Kentucky Chief
Justice John D. Minton Jr.
Wine has now dropped his motion to
disqualify Stevens from all pending
and future criminal cases, according to
a mediation agreement signed by the
two men, as well as four Minton-ap-
pointed mediators.
“The parties now have a better un-
derstanding that their words and ac-
tions can, to others, give the perception
of a bias or prejudice that the individ-
ualmaynotintendtoconvey,”readsthe
one-page agreement, obtained by The
Courier-Journal on Saturday.
Wine filed the motion
Nov. 18, referencing a
series of posts the judge
made on his personal
Facebook page in which
he called Wine a racist
who wants all-white ju-
ries. He argued the
posts showed Stevens
couldn’t be fair and un-
biased to him and his
prosecutors.
Stevens has not heard cases since
that time, rolling hearings to later
dates. The mediation agreement allows
Stevens to resume his normal daily
docket.
Stevens didn’t intend to personally
criticize Wine in his Facebook posts
andherecognizesWinedoesn’twantall
white juries, according to the agree-
ment. Rather he was voicing his “pas-
sionate concerns for the underlying is-
sues and a desire to address the injus-
tices created by racial disparity in the
juries of Jefferson County.”
The agreement also notes both men
said neither is a racist.
The Facebook posts stem from a No-
vember 2014 case in which he granted a
defense motion to dismiss a jury panel
in a case with an African-American de-
fendant. Of 41potential jurors, 40 were
white.
Wine asked the Kentucky Supreme
Court in January to clarify legal ques-
tions, including if Stevens had the au-
thority to dismiss the jury based on its
racial composition. The court has
agreed to look at the case.
In posts last month, Stevens main-
tained he had the right to intervene to
make sure a jury is representative of
the community. In Facebook posts, he
wrote the November 2014 jury panel
was “not properly constituted” as it
“represented a substantial departure
from the racial make-up of the average
jury panel.”
The circuit court judge also criti-
cized Wine for seeking clarification on
the law with the state Supreme Court,
writing online that Wine was advocat-
ing for all-white juries, is against di-
verse juries and will “live in infamy.”

crowdonDec.6onthejustcompletedIn-
terstate 65 bridge over the Ohio River to
dedicate the new span that had climbed
up out of the water over the previous two
years.
Glistening silver steel and nearly a
half-mile long, the $10 million cantilever
bridge was a shining monument to the
growth of the region, which had out-
strippedthecapabilitiesoftheClarkMe-
morial Bridge that had been built 34
years before.
Butonthisday,italsobecameamonu-
ment to the young president the nation
had lost just 14 days earlier.
The John F. Kennedy Memorial
Bridge was dedicated on the day that the
president’s widow and his two young
children moved out of the White House
and into a borrowed home in the George-
town neighborhood of Washington, D.C.
The bridge was, according to then-
highway Commissioner Henry Ward,
“the first national monument of its kind”
to honor Kennedy. Kentucky legislators
— both Democratic and Republican —
announced plans the day after Kennedy
died to pass legislation naming the
bridge in his honor.
In the days that followed there would
be announcements to rename Cape Ca-
naveral for Kennedy, as well as to name
the planned national performing arts
center on the Potomac River after him.
When the bridge was dedicated, the
feelings were still raw. The assassina-
tion still dominated the news.

A powerful earthquake — Ne-
pal’s worst in 80 years — rocked
the mountainous country on Sat-
urday, killing at least 1,865 people
in the region, Nepal’s Home Min-
istry says.
The quake leveled buildings
and centuries-old temples. Doz-
ens if not hundreds remained
trapped under mounds of rubble.
Hospitals in the capital of Kat-
mandu were so crowded that
many of the injured were treated
outside in the open, according to
local media. The magnitude-7.8
quake, which shook a wide swath
of northern India, Bangladesh,
Tibet and Pakistan, also triggered
avalanches in the Himalayas, kill-
ing at least 10 people on Mount
Everest.
Strong aftershocks continued
to jolt the region as the rescue op-
eration got into full swing earlier
today, according to the Associat-
ed Press. Given the scale of the
destruction, the death toll could
continue to rise.

marriage supporter said.
WASHINGTON When lawyers for
the American Civil Liberties
Union filed the first federal law-
suit in 1970 seeking same-sex
marriage rights, they were almost
laughed out of court. “That did
not work out well,” recalls James
Esseks, who directs the ACLU’s
gay rights project.
When Evan Wolfson submitted
his 140-page, 710-footnote Har-
vard Law School thesis, “Samesex
Marriage and Morality,” in 1983,
his was a lonely voice. “Unfortu-
nately,” he wrote, “the law, and
particularly the Supreme Court,
have often lagged far behind the
changes in society.”
And when a trial judge in
Hawaii delivered the first court
victory for same-sex marriage in
1996, lawmakers and voters
banned the practice, leading the
state Supreme Court to dismiss
the case. Nearly 5,000 miles away,
Congress and President Bill Clin-
ton felt sufficiently threatened to
enact the federal Defense of Mar-
riage Act.
As the Supreme Court pre-
pares to hear oral arguments
Tuesday in a case that appears
likely to give gays and lesbians a
constitutional right to marry, the
pace of change may seem like a
race to the altar. In truth, it’s been
a very long courtship.
“This so-called quick and so-
called overnight success is the
product of decades of battles,”
says Wolfson, founder and presi-
dent of the national same-sex
marriage advocacy group Free-
dom to Marry.
A patient legal strategy, a savvy
public relations campaign and su-
perior financing and organization
have propelled the gay marriage
movement past an outgunned
and underfunded opposition.
That, and having the Constitution
on its side, according to dozens of
state and federal judges who have
struck down same-sex marriage
bans over the past 16 months.
“It is not the Constitution that
has changed, but the knowledge
of what it means to be gay or les-
bian,” federal District Judge Rob-
ert Shelby ruled in Utah in
December 2013, igniting the
spate of like-minded decisions
that followed.
‘WAITING FOR THE
OTHER SHOE’
The question before the high
court is simple: “Does the 14th
Amendment require a state to li-
cense a marriage between two

TODAY ON TV
Thousands of protesters in
Baltimore took to the streets Sat-
urday for what they had prom-
ised would be their biggest march
yet after near-daily demonstra-
tions last week over the death of
Freddie Gray.
The demonstrations came a
day after police said Gray did not
receive medical attention early
enough after being arrested April
12 and that Gray was not buckled
into a seat when he was trans-
ported in a police van.
Police said some of the protes-
ters turned violent, breaking win-
dows and throwing items at
police. An intersection near the
Orioles-Red Sox game at Camden
Yards was crowded with rowdy
protesters but police cleared
them, allowing traffic through. By
Saturday night, at least 12 people
had been arrested and two in-
jured, according to the Associated
Press.
Gray, a black 25-year-old, died
of a spinal injury he suffered
while in police custody.
He was arrested for reasons
police have not disclosed and af-
ter having tried to run away from
officers, police said. Officers held
him down, handcuffed him and
loaded him into a police van to
transport him to the station.
Saturday afternoon, protesters
vowed to “shut down” the city
and marched through the streets,
snarling traffic. Many held signs
and chanted “No justice, no
peace.”
“It cannot be business as usual
with that man’s spine broken,
with his back broken, with no jus-
tice on the scene,” Malik Shabazz
of Black Lawyers for Justice told
the Associated Press.
Shabazz demanded the arrest
of six officers involved in the ar-
rest of Gray, who died Sunday, a
week after suffering the spinal in-
jury. The officers were suspended
with pay and are under criminal
investigation by the department.
The U.S. Justice Department is
reviewing the case and Gray’s
family is conducting a probe.
Deputy Commissioner Kevin
Davis, who is leading the investi-
gative police team looking into
Gray’s death, said that three bike
officers encountered Gray and
another man. Both men ran from
police, who chased the pair
through a neighborhood on the
city’s west side for several blocks.
Davis said that when the offi-
cers caught up with Gray and ar-
rested him, he should have
received medical attention then.

L
ook at the list of winners at re-
cent coffee trade show com-
petitions. Coffee-centric cit-
ies like Chicago and Portland,
of course, are represented.
But in the past few years, a
new city has started to make its place
known among the ranks: Louisville.
In the past year alone, Sunergos Cof-
fee was recognized for having America’s
Best Espresso, a local barista placed sec-
ond in a latte art championship andQuills
Coffee took home the regional title for
America’s Best Coffeehouse, with Vint
placing third in the same competition.
The city’s efforts have caught the at-
tention of people across the specialty cof-
feeindustry,fromwell-knownroastersto
bottom-level baristas. But in a foodie
town where bourbon distilleries and tal-
ented chefs reign supreme, coffeehouse
owners have questioned where they fit in
at the local level.
“We’ve not nearly arrived yet,” said
Matthew Huested, co-owner of Sunergos
Coffee. “I would love for Louisvillians to
make a conscious decision to buy Louis-
ville coffee. With that kind of economic
backing, there’s no limit to what we can
do with coffee in Louisville. At the same
time, there’s a wonderful movement
“We’ve not nearly arrived yet,” said
Matthew Huested, co-owner of Sunergos
Coffee. “I would love for Louisvillians to
make a conscious decision to buy Louis-
ville coffee. With that kind of economic
backing, there’s no limit to what we can
do with coffee in Louisville. At the same
time, there’s a wonderful movement hap-
pening. We’ve not yet become a city that’s
associated with coffee as we are with
horse racing or baseball bats or bourbon.
But we can be.”
Specialty coffee has been in Louisville
since at least 1962, when John Conti
opened a gourmet coffee company that
now roasts more than 1.5 million pounds
of coffee annually, according to its web-
site. However, the coffee movement
didn’t make significant strides until the
‘90s, when Heine Brothers’ Coffee, the
Highland Coffee Company, Safai Coffee
and Day’s Espresso & Coffee started
shops that laid the groundwork for doz-
ens of coffeehouses that have opened
since.
Back then, Starbucks was not yet in
Louisville, but it was quickly gaining
ground in cities that had already devel-
oped local coffee scenes, such as Chicago
andLosAngeles--whereGregandNancy
Hofer lived at the time.
Several of Greg Hofer’s cousins in Los
Angles owned successful coffee shops,
and when the couple moved to Louisville
in 1995, they knew the coffee movement
would eventually make its way inward.
Though Heine Brothers’ and Safai had
opened shops the year before, the Hofers
thought the scene could only continue to
grow. In 1999, they opened their shop,
Highlands Coffee Company, on Bard-
stown Road.
“Wefeltlikeweweregettingajumpon
it,” Nancy Hofer said. “L.A. was like the
crystal ball of what we thought was pos-
sible here. But the better difference in
Louisville is really that sense of commu-
nity and people connecting with each oth-
er. Bigger cities might be ahead on some
things, but they never have that warmth.
I think Louisville is the perfect combina-
tion of big city conveniences and small
town charm.”
Since the sudden spurt of the ‘90s, the
local coffee scene has continued to grow
steadily with a dozen companies opening
morethan30coffeehousesandroasteries
citywide. The movement has reached
passed the Highlands into other neigh-
borhoods — including Jeffersontown,
Portland and Fairdale — and has even
stretched across the river with Quills and
Heine Brothers’ launching stores in
Southern Indiana.

Additionally, companies like Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft are devoting more attention to mobile media, mobile devices, and therefore, mobile advertising. Mobile is an excellent complement to any desktop campaign. While at work, most website users utilize their desktop to browse the web.

Sheldon Shafer Development FRANKFORT, Ky. - Funding short- falls at Kentucky Retirement Sys- tems jumped by nearly $1 billion Thursday as trustees lowered the in- vestment outlook for two sorely un- derfunded pension plans that cover state workers and police. The KRS board, citing problems with cash flow, revised down expecta- tions in both plans from 7.5 percent to 6.75 percent, a move that will ulti- mately drive up funding needs in the state budget. Under Kentucky law, the lower projection is not factored into the state’s retirement contributions until fiscal year 2019. However, trustees voted Thursday to forward the infor- mation to lawmakers for considera- tion in the new budget that begins in July. KRS Executive Director Bill Thie- len said the change increases funding needs by about $20 million, half of which typically comes from the state general fund. That’s on top of $60 mil- lion in additional allocations owed to the system next year. Contributions in later years are onlygoingtobehigherifthenextbud- get relies on the old rate, Thielen said. Jim Carroll, co-founder of the pen- sion watchdog group Kentucky Gov- ernment Retirees, said lowering the rate underscores the urgency to pro- videthesystemwithmoremoney,and he cautioned that officials have no margin of error at this point. “Obviously, it’s difficult for the General Assembly, but they shot themselves in the foot - they did not put in the contributions,” he said. “Sure it puts them in a bad spot, but Ky. pension shortfall leaps by nearly $1B See PENSION, Page 6A Mike Wynn State House @mikewynn_cj Trustees lower outlook for 2 underfunded plans Search for a motive continues The day after a couple gunned down 14 and injured at least 17 others, investigators still are looking into their lives and connections.

Metro Editor: Nick Hollkamp, (502) 582-4202, nhollkamp@courier-journal.com Jefferson Circuit Judge Olu Stevens is anticipated to resume hearing cases Monday on the heels of mediation with Jefferson County Commonwealth’s At- torney Tom Wine. The two met for “several hours” Fri- day on the orders of Kentucky Chief Justice John D. Minton Jr. Wine has now dropped his motion to disqualify Stevens from all pending and future criminal cases, according to a mediation agreement signed by the two men, as well as four Minton-ap- pointed mediators. “The parties now have a better un- derstanding that their words and ac- tions can, to others, give the perception of a bias or prejudice that the individ- ualmaynotintendtoconvey,”readsthe one-page agreement, obtained by The Courier-Journal on Saturday. Wine filed the motion Nov. 18, referencing a series of posts the judge made on his personal Facebook page in which he called Wine a racist who wants all-white ju- ries. He argued the posts showed Stevens couldn’t be fair and un- biased to him and his prosecutors. Stevens has not heard cases since that time, rolling hearings to later dates. The mediation agreement allows Stevens to resume his normal daily docket. Stevens didn’t intend to personally criticize Wine in his Facebook posts andherecognizesWinedoesn’twantall white juries, according to the agree- ment. Rather he was voicing his “pas- sionate concerns for the underlying is- sues and a desire to address the injus- tices created by racial disparity in the juries of Jefferson County.” The agreement also notes both men said neither is a racist. The Facebook posts stem from a No- vember 2014 case in which he granted a defense motion to dismiss a jury panel in a case with an African-American de- fendant. Of 41potential jurors, 40 were white. Wine asked the Kentucky Supreme Court in January to clarify legal ques- tions, including if Stevens had the au- thority to dismiss the jury based on its racial composition. The court has agreed to look at the case. In posts last month, Stevens main- tained he had the right to intervene to make sure a jury is representative of the community. In Facebook posts, he wrote the November 2014 jury panel was “not properly constituted” as it “represented a substantial departure from the racial make-up of the average jury panel.” The circuit court judge also criti- cized Wine for seeking clarification on the law with the state Supreme Court, writing online that Wine was advocat- ing for all-white juries, is against di- verse juries and will “live in infamy.” Stevens, Wine reach accord Judge likely to resume hearing cases Monday MATTHEW GLOWICKI @MATTGLO See MEDIATE, Page 4A Olu Stevens The mood was much different 52 years ago when dignitaries from Ken- tucky and Indiana gathered a huge crowdonDec.6onthejustcompletedIn- terstate 65 bridge over the Ohio River to dedicate the new span that had climbed up out of the water over the previous two years.

The bridge was, according to then- highway Commissioner Henry Ward, “the first national monument of its kind” to honor Kennedy. Kentucky legislators — both Democratic and Republican — announced plans the day after Kennedy died to pass legislation naming the bridge in his honor. In the days that followed there would be announcements to rename Cape Ca- naveral for Kennedy, as well as to name the planned national performing arts center on the Potomac River after him.

A powerful earthquake — Ne- pal’s worst in 80 years — rocked the mountainous country on Sat- urday, killing at least 1,865 people in the region, Nepal’s Home Min- istry says. The quake leveled buildings and centuries-old temples. Doz- ens if not hundreds remained trapped under mounds of rubble. Hospitals in the capital of Kat- mandu were so crowded that many of the injured were treated outside in the open, according to local media. The magnitude-7.8 quake, which shook a wide swath of northern India, Bangladesh, Tibet and Pakistan, also triggered avalanches in the Himalayas, kill- ing at least 10 people on Mount Everest. Strong aftershocks continued to jolt the region as the rescue op- eration got into full swing earlier today, according to the Associat- ed Press.

WASHINGTON When lawyers for the American Civil Liberties Union filed the first federal law- suit in 1970 seeking same-sex marriage rights, they were almost laughed out of court. “That did not work out well,” recalls James Esseks, who directs the ACLU’s gay rights project. When Evan Wolfson submitted his 140-page, 710-footnote Har- vard Law School thesis, “Samesex Marriage and Morality,” in 1983, his was a lonely voice. “Unfortu- nately,” he wrote, “the law, and particularly the Supreme Court, have often lagged far behind the changes in society.” And when a trial judge in Hawaii delivered the first court victory for same-sex marriage in 1996, lawmakers and voters banned the practice, leading the state Supreme Court to dismiss the case. Nearly 5,000 miles away, Congress and President Bill Clin- ton felt sufficiently threatened to enact the federal Defense of Mar- riage Act. As the Supreme Court pre- pares to hear oral arguments Tuesday in a case that appears likely to give gays and lesbians a constitutional right to marry, the pace of change may seem like a race to the altar. In truth, it’s been a very long courtship. “This so-called quick and so- called overnight success is the product of decades of battles,” says Wolfson, founder and presi- dent of the national same-sex marriage advocacy group Free- dom to Marry. A patient legal strategy, a savvy public relations campaign and su- perior financing and organization have propelled the gay marriage movement past an outgunned and underfunded opposition. That, and having the Constitution on its side, according to dozens of state and federal judges who have struck down same-sex marriage bans over the past 16 months. “It is not the Constitution that has changed, but the knowledge of what it means to be gay or les- bian,” federal District Judge Rob- ert Shelby ruled in Utah in December 2013, igniting the spate of like-minded decisions that followed. ‘WAITING FOR THE OTHER SHOE’ The question before the high court is simple: “Does the 14th Amendment require a state to li- cense a marriage between two Gay marriage’s long road to court Case to be heard Tuesday has been 45 years in the making Richard Wolf USA TODAY v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B USA TODAY — THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR *** SECTION B 04.26.15 USA SNAPSHOTS© Busy courts The number of civil cases pending in U.S. federal courts reached a high in 2014.

Fox News Sunday: Schweizer TODAY ON TV Thousands of protesters in Baltimore took to the streets Sat- urday for what they had prom- ised would be their biggest march yet after near-daily demonstra- tions last week over the death of Freddie Gray. The demonstrations came a day after police said Gray did not receive medical attention early enough after being arrested April 12 and that Gray was not buckled into a seat when he was trans- ported in a police van. Police said some of the protes- ters turned violent, breaking win- dows and throwing items at police. An intersection near the Orioles-Red Sox game at Camden Yards was crowded with rowdy protesters but police cleared them, allowing traffic through. By Saturday night, at least 12 people had been arrested and two in- jured, according to the Associated Press. Gray, a black 25-year-old, died of a spinal injury he suffered while in police custody. He was arrested for reasons police have not disclosed and af- ter having tried to run away from officers, police said. Officers held him down, handcuffed him and loaded him into a police van to transport him to the station. Saturday afternoon, protesters vowed to “shut down” the city and marched through the streets, snarling traffic. Many held signs and chanted “No justice, no peace.” “It cannot be business as usual with that man’s spine broken, with his back broken, with no jus- tice on the scene,” Malik Shabazz of Black Lawyers for Justice told the Associated Press. Shabazz demanded the arrest of six officers involved in the ar- rest of Gray, who died Sunday, a week after suffering the spinal in- jury. The officers were suspended with pay and are under criminal investigation by the department. The U.S. Justice Department is reviewing the case and Gray’s family is conducting a probe. Deputy Commissioner Kevin Davis, who is leading the investi- gative police team looking into Gray’s death, said that three bike officers encountered Gray and another man. Both men ran from police, who chased the pair through a neighborhood on the city’s west side for several blocks. Davis said that when the offi- cers caught up with Gray and ar- rested him, he should have received medical attention then.

Coffee-centric cit- ies like Chicago and Portland, of course, are represented. But in the past few years, a new city has started to make its place known among the ranks: Louisville. In the past year alone, Sunergos Cof- fee was recognized for having America’s Best Espresso, a local barista placed sec- ond in a latte art championship andQuills Coffee took home the regional title for America’s Best Coffeehouse, with Vint placing third in the same competition. The city’s efforts have caught the at- tention of people across the specialty cof- feeindustry,fromwell-knownroastersto bottom-level baristas. But in a foodie town where bourbon distilleries and tal- ented chefs reign supreme, coffeehouse owners have questioned where they fit in at the local level. “We’ve not nearly arrived yet,” said Matthew Huested, co-owner of Sunergos Coffee. “I would love for Louisvillians to make a conscious decision to buy Louis- ville coffee. With that kind of economic backing, there’s no limit to what we can do with coffee in Louisville. At the same time, there’s a wonderful movement “We’ve not nearly arrived yet,” said Matthew Huested, co-owner of Sunergos Coffee. “I would love for Louisvillians to make a conscious decision to buy Louis- ville coffee. With that kind of economic backing, there’s no limit to what we can do with coffee in Louisville. At the same time, there’s a wonderful movement hap- pening. We’ve not yet become a city that’s associated with coffee as we are with horse racing or baseball bats or bourbon. But we can be.” Specialty coffee has been in Louisville since at least 1962, when John Conti opened a gourmet coffee company that now roasts more than 1.5 million pounds of coffee annually, according to its web- site. However, the coffee movement didn’t make significant strides until the ‘90s, when Heine Brothers’ Coffee, the Highland Coffee Company, Safai Coffee and Day’s Espresso & Coffee started shops that laid the groundwork for doz- ens of coffeehouses that have opened since. Back then, Starbucks was not yet in Louisville, but it was quickly gaining ground in cities that had already devel- oped local coffee scenes, such as Chicago andLosAngeles--whereGregandNancy Hofer lived at the time. Several of Greg Hofer’s cousins in Los Angles owned successful coffee shops, and when the couple moved to Louisville in 1995, they knew the coffee movement would eventually make its way inward. Though Heine Brothers’ and Safai had opened shops the year before, the Hofers thought the scene could only continue to grow. In 1999, they opened their shop, Highlands Coffee Company, on Bard- stown Road. “Wefeltlikeweweregettingajumpon it,” Nancy Hofer said. “L.A. was like the crystal ball of what we thought was pos- sible here. But the better difference in Louisville is really that sense of commu- nity and people connecting with each oth- er. Bigger cities might be ahead on some things, but they never have that warmth. I think Louisville is the perfect combina- tion of big city conveniences and small town charm.” Since the sudden spurt of the ‘90s, the local coffee scene has continued to grow steadily with a dozen companies opening morethan30coffeehousesandroasteries citywide. The movement has reached passed the Highlands into other neigh- borhoods — including Jeffersontown, Portland and Fairdale — and has even stretched across the river with Quills and Heine Brothers’ launching stores in Southern Indiana.
