City approves Schulman Crossing, water park plans By SCOTT AUST
saust@gctelegram.com
Two projects worth a total of $50 million gained easy initial approval from the Garden City Commission on Tuesday, both of them located on the east side of the city near the newly opened Menards store. One project includes more than 200,000 square feet of additional retail space,
while the other envisions a water park, hotel and Old Chicago restaurant. Commissioners approved the initial project plan of Phase II of the Schulman Crossing retail development and scheduled a public hearing regarding a tax increment financing district for Aug. 6. “We’re very excited to be working on Phase II of the development we brought forward approximately a year ago,” Korb Maxwell, attorney with Kansas City-based
firm Polsinelli, said. “My clients have been working to attract retailers, going to the International Shopping Center convention and having good luck with that.” The roughly $24.65 million project will add 241,000 square feet of retail space on 34 acres located just north of the newly opened Menards store, which was Phase I of the development. Phase II will house a mix of national-level retail stores and restaurants, according to the project plan.
The project will be funded with a combination of private funds and public money through a tax increment financing district. Roughly $9 million of the $24.65 million project is eligible for TIF funding. Plans filed with the city show a 55,000square-foot major anchor store on the south end, as well as five major tenants ranging between 12,500 square feet and See Development, Page A5

Fireworks families

Alexis Meinert refills a shelf with fireworks Tuesday at a fireworks stand at 4375 E. U.S. Highway 50. The stand is owned by Rick and Soni Brimm.
Families, friends sell fireworks at area stands By ANGIE HAFLICH
ahaflich@gctelegram.com
Running fireworks stands is both a family and friend affair in Garden City. “All the stands are related, pretty much, except for Wholesale and a stand from Syracuse. So those (other stands) are all our cousins,” Dawnette Meinert, Topeka, said. Meinert comes back to Garden City every year to help run her Uncle Rick and Aunt Soni Brimm’s stand on East U.S. Highway 50. Even Meinert’s 4-year-old daughter, Aveah McGlory, was carrying on the family tradition, doing her part by swatting flies. Meinert said the Brimms, both of Garden City, have been selling fireworks for more than 30 years and used to have a stand on the east and west side of town, but consolidated the stands into one a few years ago. “It was easier to just have one big stand and have everyone over here,” Meinert said.
With seven people and four children stocking the stand last week, Meinert said it still took about five hours. She said the grand finale that takes place after Friday, which is the last day fireworks can be sold or shot off, is the best part of the whole week. “My uncle buys his own stuff to pop. On the 5th, he just goes crazy,” she said, laughing. Another cousin of Meinert’s, Jennifer Kemp-Espinosa, along with her parents, Phil and Pam Kemp, all of Garden City, run four fireworks stands each year. On Tuesday, 16-year-old Nailen Rincones, a son of one of KempEspinosa’s friends, was helping run the Kemp’s stand located on East U.S. Highway 50 near El Maguey Club. He said mornings are slow, but that it picks up during the evening hours. He said the biggest sellers are the aerials. “Probably the artillery shells, the ones that shoot up in the air,
are the most popular. The 500-gram cakes (aerials) are pretty good, too. They put on a show,” he said. Kemp-Espinosa said the family makes a decent amount of extra income from running the stands each year. “It just depends on the year. Some years are really good and some years are, you know, so-so,” she said. Her aunt, Paula Lang, also operates a stand on West Jones Avenue. Kemp-Espinosa said the fact that all the stands are locallyowned keeps money in the community. Andy and Cherri Eck, Sublette, own and operate another fireworks stand, Wholesale Fireworks, on the U.S. Highway 50 bypass between Campus Drive and Third Street. Cherri Eck said her daughter, Karissa Prentice, and son, Peyton Nelson, have been helping with the store for several years. The Ecks also have locations in Sublette and Dodge City, but the
Garden City spot is offering something special this year, a firework that benefits families of military service men and women killed or disabled in action. Wholesale Fireworks is offering a 500-gram red, white, and blue special firework, Folds of Honor, at a special price of $30. For each Folds of Honor firework sold, $10 will go directly to scholarship opportunities to children and spouses of fallen and wounded service men and women. The scholarships are used to subsidize the costs of tuition, school books, fees, room and board, and any other educational expense that a student’s school may deem appropriate and otherwise unmet. The Folds of Honor Foundation has provided assistance to 2,600 scholarship recipients, to date, according to a press release. “It does red, white and blue. It does the stars and the red — it’s really pretty,” Eck said, adding that they are stocked with about 60 of them.
After a few months in limbo, the Garden City Commission decided Tuesday to put the old American Legion building up for sale. A proposal to turn the building, located at 125 Pine St., into apartments got shut down in April due to concerns about allowing first-floor residential units in the central business district. The city commission voted to deny a waiver that would have allowed the project to move forward, but didn’t decide at that time what to do with the building. CCS Properties, LLC, owned by Carlos and Candace Gamino, submitted a proposal that was accepted by the city commission last fall to renovate the old building into several high-end apartments. The issue then went through the planning commission to address the property’s zoning. Due to its split-level design, the building didn’t fit well under existing central business district zoning. The planning commission opposed changing zoning ordinances to allow ground-floor apartments downtown because of the potential impact on the character of the area if other building owners wanted to do the same. Candace Gamino thanked the city for the opportunity to acquire the building. “I hope whoever gets this building respects it as much as we did. It is a beautiful building. It is a part of Garden City’s heritage,” she said. The commission asked city staff to determine a fair price for the building before listing it for sale. Last year, the building was appraised at $380,000, but the city See Building, Page A5

In age of worldwide surveillance, U.S. has big edge LONDON (AP) — The saga of Edward Snowden and the NSA makes one thing clear: The United States’ central role in developing the Internet and hosting its most powerful players has made it the global leader in the surveillance game. Other countries, from dictatorships to democracies, are also avid snoopers, tapping into the high-capacity fiber optic cables to intercept Internet traf-
fic, scooping their citizens’ data off domestic servers, and even launching cyberattacks to win access to foreign networks. But experts in the field say that Silicon Valley has made America a surveillance superpower, allowing its spies access to massive mountains of data being collected by the world’s leading communications, social media, and online storage companies.

(MCT) — Each summer, around 25 Kansans travel to Western states and help fight wildfires, Rodney Redinger says. Redinger is a Kansas Forest Service training specialist who teaches firefighters how to handle wildfires. Now he is among about 10 Kansans dueling two Colorado fires. Redinger, 34, is an incident commander fighting a fire in the Pueblo, Colo., area. Each year, hundreds of Kansans train to battle wildfires, but only a few leave the state to do it, said Redinger, who lives in the Harvey County town of Burrton, east of Hutchinson. It’s not just a potentially dangerous job. It’s grueling work, a long way from home. In Colorado, the labor at lower elevations involves dealing with a mix of grass and brush; at higher elevations, it’s pine trees. The day usually starts around 5:30 a.m. The crews use chain-
saws to clear an area about 20 feet wide in a continuous line along the fire to remove fuel that can feed the flames. Within the 20-foot belt, they cut firebreaks by clearing brush down to the dirt. Each path is about 18 inches wide. It’s enough to stop a small fire or slow a large one. And they do it for 16 hours a day, in heat and smoke, wearing protective but lightweight pants and long-sleeved shirts, helmets, leather boots and gloves. They carry water and food — often meals ready to eat — in backpacks weighing 20 to 40 pounds, depending on how much they have to carry with them. It’s not uncommon for a crew member to drink 2 gallons of water per 16-hour shift. Compensation comes from a complicated mix of local, state and federal funds, Redinger said. As the crews toil, aircraft drop water and retardant. Firefighters establish lookouts and communicate by twoway radios about the location of
safety zones, about tactics, about everything, Redinger said. “You rely on teamwork,� he said. They need one another because they’re dealing with unforgiving nature and its unpredictable ways. A wind can suddenly shift, causing a fire to roar in a different direction. A blaze in dry timber can rage 100 yards in 10 seconds, or faster than it takes an NFL kickoff returner to sprint untouched from one goal line to the other. Superheated gases churn ahead of the flames. According to a document by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, wildfire flames can range from a few feet to more than 200 feet high — as tall as a water tower. In Kansas, wildfires tend to kick up more in the spring, when the grass is dry and the winds are furious, and the typical Kansas wildfire is smaller and easier to get to than blazes in the West, Redinger said.
The goal, he said, is to try to predict the fire’s movement so crews don’t have to run for safety at the last minute. The strategy is to keep a buffer. Each crew member carries what looks like a tin-foil tent, called a fire shelter. As a last resort, a crew member can lie down and put a tent over himself as protection from the flames. But the protection doesn’t always work. On Sunday night, after the crews in Colorado learned of 19 firefighters killed by an Arizona wildfire, Redinger said, the leaders directed everyone to call home and touch base with their families. As for the tragedy in Arizona, Redinger said, “There’s no words to describe it. It’s a sobering day to be a firefighter.� For the families and friends of the lost firefighters, and for all the people who have had to respond to the incident, he said, “they’re going to need a lot of prayers.�

The Fourth of July will not only include fireworks, but also music and horseshoes, and then over the weekend, a flea market fundraiser offering a variety of unique items, including antiques. The annual Cecil Baker Memorial Horseshoe Tournament starts at 10 a.m. Thursday at the horseshoe courts south of the swimming pool at Finnup Park. Qualifying begins at 9 a.m. The event attracts horseshoe pitchers from as young as 8 to 92 years old from Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska and other states. The tournament is managed by Warren and Jean Schwab. Warren Schwab is a horseshoe pitcher himself. The game of horseshoes originated in Kansas with the
first contest being held in the summer of 1910 in Bronson. The winner was Frank Jackson, who was awarded a world championship belt with horseshoes attached to it. The “Babe Ruth� of Horseshoe Pitching, all-time world champion Ted Allen, Boulder, Colo., pitched his first tournament on July 4, 1921, on a large set of lighted courts on the Southwest Corner of Seventh and Chestnut streets in Garden City. The tournament was started by Cecil Baker, a former teacher, principal, coach, businessman, longtime sports referee, and active horseshoe pitcher, who moved from Sublette to Garden City in 1949, and named it the Annual July 4th Horseshoe Tournament. For almost 50 years, The Garden City Telegram promoted and sponsored the Horseshoe Tournament as a free event and presented trophies. Baker died in 1966 and The Telegram renamed the tournament to honor him. It has been called the Annual Cecil Baker Memorial Horseshoe Tournament ever since.
PETS OF THE WEEK
Warren and Jean Schwab mail out invitations, obtain a tent, and provide equipment, time, and effort. Warren obtains cold refreshments and prizes through numerous businesses. Prizes are awarded in a special drawing for all participants at the end of the tournament. The Baker family donates framed certificates and the entire entry fee goes back to the winners, along with the certificates. Other activities include: • The Lee Richardson Zoo will observe extended hours on Thursday for the Municipal Band concert and fireworks viewing. The Fourth Street vehicle entrance gate will close at 8 p.m., with free vehicle admission from 6:30 to 8 p.m. After 8 p.m., the Fifth Street exit gate will remain open for latecomers to enter free of charge.

Fire’s wrath Tragedy brings sad reminder of need to exercise caution.
T
he danger of wildfires hit home when a number of local and area Boy Scouts recently were forced to evacuate their Colorado campsite. They all escaped unharmed, thankfully, after being threatened by the East Peak fire in Colorado. As frightening as that situation was, it also brought a blessing in everyone’s safe return home. And now, unfortunately, we have a more grim What additional precaureminder of tions could governments how such take to lessen the threat of emergencies grass and wildfires?

Families and friends were left to mourn the deaths of 19 firefighters killed Sunday when they were unable to escape a wildfire northwest of Phoenix. The firefighters — all members of Arizona’s elite Granite Mountain Hotshots — were overrun by flames near Yarnell, Ariz., in the deadliest tragedy to claim the lives of wildland firefighters in the nation since the Griffith Park wildfire killed 29 firefighters in 1933 in Los Angeles. Lightning reportedly ignited a number of recent wildfires near Prescott, Ariz., including the one that killed the 19 members of the Hotshots firefighting crew. While natural causes were to blame amid an ugly combination of dry, hot and windy weather, the deadly blaze also was cause to consider the need to be extra cautious in tinder-dry conditions — a situation well known in western Kansas. Everyone in western Kansas, after all, should know it takes only one spark to ignite a serious grass fire that can destroy property and threaten lives. Plus, it’s always necessary to consider the plight of firefighters in such conditions. Not only is it miserable to suit up in heavy firefighting gear and battle a blaze in extreme heat, it’s also downright dangerous — and potentially deadly. The latest sad saga in the ongoing battle against wildfires brought a sobering reminder of the wrath of stifling heat and persistent drought, and how such conditions set up the kind of grave danger firefighters and others dedicated to protecting people and property face. And, why everyone should be on alert, knowing one careless act could spark the kind of dire situation that puts still more emergency responders in harm’s way.
Today’s quotes “ ... The Criminals that don’t have their CCW permits will see the sign and turn away...

A delicate, imperiled democracy
F
rom the useless-information department: The 13 American Colonies legally separated from England on July 2, 1776. We celebrate on July 4 because it took two days for the Declaration of Independence to be officially adopted. Even back then, paperwork slowed things down. Be that as it may, the soaring language of the document, crafted mainly by Thomas Jefferson, has served as our country’s inspiration for 237 years. It lives on as a warning about one of the biggest enemies of the egalitarian ideals that define this nation: expedience. It’s important that we constantly reflect on the dangers of taking the shortcuts that are perpetually a temptation to the thoughtless or ruthlessly ambitious. Perhaps the most important sentence of the Declaration was and is, “Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Now that we’ve come to a point in history where we’ve shed the injustices of the 18th century, such as the suppression of women and the evil of slavery, we can really strive for the full meaning of those words. The United States of America must always be led by those chosen in orderly elections available to everyone, because “all men were created equal.” And yet, here we have today, a Supreme Court majority undermining a law that helped to enforce that precious right, and here we have today cynical, selfserving partisans coming up
COMMENTARY Bob Franken King Features Syndicate with various schemes to disenfranchise those who don’t happen to share their political views. In this 21st century, we still have a cabal trying to disrupt the orderly government that ultimately grew out of our revolution. They use their wealth to gain unfair advantage. They intrude on our lives in ways no one could even imagine back at our nation’s beginning. Instead of “Taxation Without Representation,” today we have taxation without fairness. All of which eats away at the support of the people who grow weary of what Jefferson called “a long train of abuses and usurpations.” All too often, an examination of the Declaration of Independence leads to foolish argument about its ultimate purpose, which was enumerating the right to rise up against the established order “to alter or to abolish it and to institute new government.” In other words, is it a boilerplate justification for overthrowing today’s government? When someone raises that question, the conversation can plunge into foolishness in a hurry. No one in his right mind wants that. As simple-minded as it sounds, the phrase “America, love it or leave it” makes a valid point. It’s a lot worse
in so many other countries than it is here, but we need to deal with some glaring flaws. We can truly show our love for this nation by addressing them while protecting the principles that make it unique and resisting those who would take unfair advantage of our liberties. We want to make this grand experiment work, and not allow it to be eroded by laziness, sloppiness or unscrupulousness. Somebody or other, it’s not clear whether it was Jefferson or another sound-bite maven, proclaimed “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” Whoever first uttered those words was right on the money. Far too many of us have let the frustrations of modern times lead us to conclude that civic duty really has become an exercise in futility. We can easily fritter away our precious freedoms in shortsighted ways or we can stick to the principles outlined by our Founding Fathers. Speaking of those guys, there is a growing movement to refer to the 1776 signers as “Founding Founders” instead of “Fathers.” It ignores reality, but the reasons are obvious, and I’ll leave it to someone else to decide whether it’s a bit too PC. Whichever, the yearly celebration of their stirring vision is a reminder that we cannot afford now to allow ourselves to keep foundering.

Independence from our government I
n the course of human events it is necessary, now and again, to reaffirm some of the thoughts and principles we have lost sight of. And so it is that we need to renew our independence. More than 55 percent of Americans now receive some form of federal government benefit — and many of us need to get off the dole. I cite the findings of Richard Vedder, a professor emeritus of economics at Ohio University and an adjunct scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. In The Wall Street Journal, Vedder argues that more Americans are not only becoming more dependent on government benefits, but that their dependence is adversely affecting the growth of our economy. Consider: From the mid17th century to the late 20th century, Vedder says, the American economy’s growth averaged a robust 3.5 percent a year. Compare that to economic growth for the last quarter, which was revised down to 1.8 percent. A key reason for the stumbling economy: Fewer able-bodied Americans are working because government programs give them incentive not to. Vedder offers four examples: • Food stamps, now known officially as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Approximately 48 million Americans receive food stamps — 30 million more than in the year 2000. • Social Security Disability. This program was established for people with genuine needs, but its numbers are soaring. In 1990, 3

million Americans received such payments; today, there are nearly 11 million — 6 million have been added since 2009 — despite widely reported fraud and abuse. • Pell Grants, which pay people to go to college instead of entering the workforce. The concept sounds reasonable enough — educate people so they get better jobs and pay more taxes — but Vedder says nearly half of college graduates now work in jobs that require no college degree. • Extended unemployment benefits. Vedder says that since the 1930s, unemployment insurance has been about lending a shortterm hand to folks losing their jobs. But in the past four years, the traditional 26-week benefit has grown to a year or more — peaking at up to 99 weeks in some states. Vedder’s argument makes sense. When government incentivizes people to stay home rather than seek work — when it gives them the opportunity to avoid jobs where pay and conditions do not meet their expectations — they will avoid work, and that will have a negative impact on the economy for all of us. Which is why we need a renewed declaration of independence — from our own government. The American dream has long been about the freedom to pursue one’s own passion
and success — not about being lured into the trap of getting by on a variety of federal and state programs. And make no mistake, many more Americans are enjoying expensive government goodies — grants and tax breaks for crony capitalists, health insurance provided to employees taxfree, low-interest mortgages and deductions for vacation homes backed by Uncle Sam, etc. — than we like to admit, and these costs are killing us. The American dream requires a robust economy that affords every American an opportunity to find meaningful work, but an undisciplined government carrying high debt and deficits stands in the way of a robust economy. Heck, our government was formed to secure our unalienable rights, among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness — not to inhibit them. If we have any hope of carrying on the American dream, we have to declare our independence from government all over again. We all have to get our hands out of the government cookie jar and scale back government goodies across the board. I hope and pray that we have the will to get our affairs in order, so that younger generations may freely pursue their dreams, but I worry plenty these days. And I wish you a happy Fourth of July.

early every single American is intimately connected with the earned benefits of Social Security and Medicare — as either a contributor, a recipient or both. In fact, a recent national poll indicated nearly 90 percent of us favor taking strong measures to preserve the long-term stability of both programs. So a recent report released by the trustees of Social Security and Medicare may have caused you to take notice and provoked you to think about — or tell — your stories. Here are a few I’d like to share: Melissa M. of Stinson Beach, Calif., talked about her father-in-law, 60 years old, working for low wages six or seven days each week for 40 years as a manager of a nearby cattle ranch. “The one thing that keeps him going is the letter he gets from the Social Security Administration,” she said. It “tells him how much he has earned in Social Security.” Allen J. of Portland, Ore., remarked that he was “a liver transplant survivor because of Medicare.” Martin L. of Cortland, N.Y., said he was born with a heart defect that required open-heart surgery to replace it. Without Medicare, Martin writes, he “would have no life and no future.” Alton S. of Lakeland, Fla., was planting a citrus tree when he felt a pain in his lower abdomen. That night, an emergency room doctor told him he had a ruptured diverticulum. Alton remembers overhearing someone say, “We better get this guy to surgery or he’s dead meat.” A combination of his private insurance and Medicare paid for a series of successful surgeries. Looking back, Alton believes Medicare is one of the most “humane and caring arms of our government.” With a 33-year career as a nurse, Janet P. of Cotati, Calif., noted that she worked to keep her “clients stable enough to stay out of the hospital.” Every time Medicare or Social Security policy changes, her clients’ lives are affected. Even as she hustles for others, Janet is aware that she needs to think about her own future. “My savings was in my house, but I lost that,” she said. “I’m older now ... getting back that nest egg gets harder and harder, and I’m not confident that either Social Security or Medicare will be there for me when I’m not able to work full-time.” These are Melissa, Allen, Martin, Alton and Janet’s stories. Like millions of their neighbors, Social Security and Medicare keep them going, offering them a humane and caring future. Congress must take sound action to ensure that the promise of both these programs remains fully funded for coming generations. If our elected officials do nothing, after 2026, the government will be able to pay approximately 87 percent of projected Medicare costs and, after 2033, roughly 75 percent of anticipated Social Security benefits. The trustees offer us a sobering reminder, not a crazed alarm as some fear. Luckily there are many smart actions Congress can take in response, starting with raising the payroll tax cap and fully implementing the Affordable Care Act. These actions are within our reach and would have a dramatic and positive impact on the well-being of both programs. Our elected officials need to hear from all of us today. It’s our budget and our future. Let’s weigh in. Jo Comerford is the executive director of the National Priorities Project. Distributed by www.otherwords.org.

Development: City commission approves two projects Continued from Page A1
35,000 square feet. The second phase is even larger than the Menards development. Menards covers about 162,000 square feet on 28 acres. Maxwell said developers are looking forward to getting the TIF approved, getting a development agreement signed with the city, closing on private financing and beginning construction by the fall. “Probably the first question on everyone’s mind is who are the retailers and what can be said publicly. We can’t say at this time as we are still in lease negotiations with those retailers,� Maxwell said.
However, Maxwell said retailer names could start being released around the time of the August public hearing. “We are on a really a breakneck pace. Everything in our internal group is to close on all financing and be ready to start construction by midSeptember,� he said. Construction, or at least the dirt work for the site, could get under way by Oct. 1, Maxwell said. If developers meet that goal, Maxwell anticipates about a nine-month time frame to complete construction with stores possibly opening in the summer of 2014. Due to the recession, Maxwell said he wasn’t sure
he would ever work on another retail power center deal again. “The community and all of you should be very excited because that is something very few places in the United States can say they have the opportunity to work on,� he said. Commissioners also approved the TIF district plan and creation of a redevelopment district associated with a water park/hotel/restaurant project. The proposed development is located at the former Fun Center property near the bypass and Schulman Avenue. Local hotelier Amro Samy plans to build a $25 million development that includes a
22,000 square feet indoor water park, a 90-room hotel and a 6,000-square-foot restaurant. Last week, Old Chicago was named as the restaurant. Maxwell, whose firm also represents the Samy development, said Tuesday’s action is the first step in a process. Developers will later go back to the commission for project plan approval and a development agreement. Developers hope to start on the restaurant and hotel in the fall. “We think what is going on on Schulman Avenue is truly ground changing for this community. We’re very excited to be part of this development,�
Maxwell said. The project would use two incentives, tax-increment financing and a community improvement district. The TIF allows increased property taxes generated by the improved property to be used to finance construction of infrastructure for the project, and the CID would allow property owners to levy an additional 1 percent sales tax on their customers, not only within the new development but on sales at the Sleep Inn and Clarion Inn, both Samy-owned properties. Financing of the water park will also use transient guest taxes collected from the new hotel and the Sleep Inn.

behalf of someone else. A little buzz, but I wouldn’t say anything like someone coming in and dropping off a proposal,� Allen said. In other business: • Commissioners rejected the only bid received for construction and assembly of substation No. 10, which would add transformer
capacity to the city’s electric grid, because the bid was more than $385,000 higher than the engineer’s estimate of $250,000. The city will revise the scope of work and rebid the project. • Commissioners approved establishing a Rural Housing Incentive District and redevelop-
ment plan for the Chappel Heights Phase 1 housing development, generally located east of Jennie Barker Road and south of Mary Street. The project includes eight, four-unit apartment buildings and 47 lots for duplexes and single-family homes. • Commissioners
approved a resolution stating that the city is considering an RHID for the Reserves at Prairie Ridge Phase II. The development will consist of two 16-unit apartment buildings along North Campus Drive near the 32-unit phase I complex at 3201 Campus Drive that was completed a year ago.

So countries like Italy, where a culture of rampant wiretapping means that authorities regularly eavesdrop on private conversations, can’t match the level of detail drawn from Internet searches or email traffic analysis. “It’s as bad as reading your diary,� Wright said. Then he corrected himself: “It’s FAR WORSE than reading your diary. Because you don’t write everything in your diary.�

Mountain View, California-based Google Inc. carries two-thirds of the world’s online search traffic, analysts say. Menlo Park, California-based Facebook Inc. has some 900 million users — a figure that accounts for a third of the world’s estimated 2.7 billion Internetgoers. Electronic eavesdrop-

ders in Holcomb and they also shot some scenes inside and outside the museum, as well as throughout the community, Museum Executive Director Steve Quakenbush said in an email to The Telegram. Quakenbush said it will be several weeks before it’s known if and when the segment will be completed. “If one is produced, it would most likely be broadcast sometime in the spring of 2014,� Quakenbush said in the email. “While the company isn’t able to share a great deal of information about what they’re producing for the Travel Channel or their other clients, they spent a good share of their time in our research library.

Garden City and Holcomb are ready for their close-ups. A three-person crew from Optomen USA, a New York City-based television production company that produces programs for the Travel Channel, National Geographic, Food Network, Animal Planet and others, was at the Finney County Historical Museum and other spots around town Tuesday to film possible segments for the Travel Channel show “Mysteries at the Museum.� “Mysteries at the Museum� features six short segments on different history-related topics. Each one is produced in connection with a museum at locations all over the country. On Tuesday, the crew was in town for a possible story about the 1959 Clutter mur-
um,� he added. The production group was led by Aaron Bengston, an associate producer with Optomen, and they were shooting scenes under contract to the Travel Channel. The crew found out about the Finney County Historical Museum on the Internet. “Mr. Bengston contacted us in advance, and asked if they could visit the museum and make use of our facilities, since they would be in the region. While it required some adjustments and inconvenience in terms of access, we were happy to accommodate them,� Quakenbush said. Quakenbush said the museum has a few items in
its collection related to the Clutter case, but none on display. It does have a “fair number of records relating to the case� in its library. “It’s not unusual for us to receive inquiries about the case from out-of-town visitors, and we do make a few items available for purchase in the museum store, including a book entitled ‘Beyond Cold Blood’ that addresses the case, as well as others; a history of the Garden City Police Department that includes information about the case; and a CD produced by The Garden City Telegram that includes original stories and other information about the murders,� Quakenbush wrote.

FAQs about Medicare, VA benefits Friend needs professional help F
are always needed. If you would like to help, call Patti at 272-3620 or 260-6282.
One questions is “Can I have both Medicare and veterans benefits?� Yes, you can have both, but Medicare and VA benefits do not work together. To receive VA benefits, you must get care at a VA facility. Medicare does not pay for any care provided at a VA facility. Many veterans use their VA health benefits to get coverage for services not covered by Medicare. For example, some veterans use VA services to obtain prescription drugs that are excluded from Medicare drug coverage, but rely on Medicare for their other prescriptions and medical care. Another questions is “Should I enroll in the Medicare drug benefit (Part D) if I have VA drug coverage?� Since VA coverage is more comprehensive than Medicare drug coverage, you probably do not want to enroll in a Medicare private drug plan. Also, Medicare only works with VA benefits in the rare cases when you have VA permission to get services in a non-VA facility. Since VA pays first and Medicare pays second, you will not need Medicare to supplement your VA drug coverage. In addition, if you ever do want to enroll in the Medicare drug benefit later, VA drug coverage is considered as good as the Medicare drug benefit (“creditable coverage�) so you will not have to pay a penalty as long as you enroll in the Medicare drug benefit within 63 days of losing VA benefits. With no premiums and no or limited co-pays for prescriptions, VA coverage is comparable to Medicare drug coverage with Extra Help. However, you may want to join a Medicare private drug plan if you live very far from a VA facility and the Medicare private drug plan includes nearby pharmacies in its network, or if you live in a nursing home that does not accept your VA drug benefits.
Scheduled activities
Another question is “Can I drop Medicare and just use VA benefits?� If you are eligible for Medicare, you should not rely solely on VA benefits for your health care needs. Medicare does not work with VA benefits and if you receive care outside of a VA facility you might need Medicare. Medicare will not pay for any care received at a VA facility. You should enroll in Medicare Part A and Part B to guarantee coverage outside the VA system. If you drop Medicare, you will have to get all your health care at VA facilities. Since the VA does not guarantee benefits to all veterans, you could be left with no coverage at all and you may not always be near a VA facility.
Help available Interfaith Housing Services is an organization with the objective of meeting housing needs in our community. One way they help is with weatherization. Weatherization improves heating efficiency and fuel savings by ensuring that homes hold heat and air conditioning in, while keeping the hot and cold air out.

Community colleges offer freedom to further education what was then the “junior college” were: Developing a right attitude and social cooperation, through motivation and socialization Fruitful knowledge and applied skill, through instruction and training. Although GCCC has adapted and transformed many times in the last 94 years, the current GCCC mission statement still supports those original objectives: “GCCC exists to produce positive contributors to the economic and social wellbeing of society.” The college opened with one vocational and five academic departments as part of the Garden City public school system, and remained affiliated with the public schools for 46 years until 1965. From that time forward, GCCC has implemented instruction and training to accommodate the needs of the community, business and industry, and students. GCCC’s original leaders were years ahead as their vision of a community

college’s purpose and function is alive and well today. Community college students don’t only earn associate degrees and transfer to four-year institutions, they also earn or upgrade job skills or pursue hobbies and other personal enrichment experiences. The GCCC Board of Trustees recognized these goals when they set the college’s overarching purposes. The ends, or objectives, defined by the college governing board today are: • Essential skills • Academic advancement • Work preparation • Personal enrichment • Workforce development These ends support GCCC’s mission and ensure that contemporary, relevant educational options are available to students, regardless of their personal goals.
With community colleges taking the leading role in America’s quest to train and educate a workforce in a global economy, recognition for community colleges has reached the highest levels of U.S. government. “Community colleges represent a uniquely American idea — that if you work hard and get a good education, you can get the skills you need for a good job and build a better life for you and your family,” said Dr. Jill Biden, Second Lady of the United States, during the Aspen Institute’s 2013 “Celebrating Excellence in Community Colleges” award ceremony March 19. “Community colleges are often unsung heroes in their work to expand opportunities, offer intensive preparation for careers, and provide an affordable and effective option for many students. “Education and job training are critical to that vision, strengthening the middle class and preparing our citizens to compete in the global economy. Each and every day, community
colleges are doing more to grow our middle class, equipping our citizens with the education and training that today’s jobs require.” As you celebrate your independence this Fourth of July, consider the options available to you at GCCC. From career technical programs to fine arts and history, learning is available to you year-round. The final 2013 summer session begins Monday and there’s still time to enroll for that and the fall semester, too. Fall classes are set to begin Aug. 21. We even have scholarships available.

Local resident defends thesis Michael Kempke, Garden City, defended his thesis, “A Logistics Optimization Study for Garden City Co-Op Inc.,” on April 4. Kempke is the crop production accounts manager for Garden City Co-op. He graduated from Kansas State University in May with a master’s of agribusiness degree. Established in 1919, Garden City Co-op is a rural Southwestern Kansas co-op serving more than 2,000 members and non-members by providing marketing and storage of grain, fertilizer, crop protection products, seed and petroleum. The cooperative also owns and operates Western Transport, a company providing transportation of liquid fertilizer, diesel, gasoline and propane. “The purpose of my thesis
was to develop a model that would optimize the supply chain strategies for the cooperative’s fertilizer and petroleum products by determining an optimum mix of storage and transportation needs,” Kempke said. “This will help Garden City Co-op minimize costs associated with inventory, storage, labor, operations and freight expenses.” In developing the model, he reviewed different demand scenarios during drought and non-drought scenarios. Brian Briggeman, associate professor of agricultural economics and Kempke’s thesis advisor, said, “Michael did an excellent job developing a logistics model that will benefit the membership of Garden City Cooperative.” K-State’s master of agribusiness (www.mab.ksu. edu) is an award-winning, distance-education degree program that focuses on food and agribusiness management. Students and alumni work in every sector of the food and agribusiness industry and are located in 40 states within the United States and in more than 25 countries.

Happy Independence Day! While Americans may sometimes take our freedoms for granted, the Fourth of July is a good time to reflect upon the liberties we enjoy — one of which is education. In many countries, education is not available at all, and in some, it is limited to only a select few. Here in the USA, education is commonly accessible. According to the American Association of Community Colleges, community colleges serve close to half of the undergraduate students in the United States. Garden City Community College has a long tradition of providing high-quality postsecondary education to Finney County and southwest Kansas. Garden City Community College was created by a Finney County vote that passed by a 2-1 margin on April 1, 1919. This wide margin reflected the community’s passion for providing citizens with the opportunity to further their education right at home. At the time, the two main objectives listed for

CAIRO (AP) — With the clock ticking, Egypt’s besieged president said Tuesday that he will not step down as state media reported that the powerful military plans to overturn his Islamist-dominated government if the elected leader doesn’t meet the demands of the millions of protesters calling for his ouster. Mohammed Morsi’s defiant statement sets up a major confrontation between supporters of the president and Egyptians angry over what they see as his efforts to impose control by his Muslim Brotherhood as well as his failure to introduce reforms more than two years after the revolution that ousted his autocratic predecessor Hosni Mubarak. Writing Tuesday on his official Twitter account, Morsi said he “asserts his adherence to constitutional legitimacy and rejects any attempt to breach it and calls on the armed forces to withdraw their ultimatum and rejects any domestic or foreign dictates.� The leaking of the military’s so-called political road map appeared aimed at adding pressure on Morsi by showing the public and the international community that the military has a plan that does not involve a coup. With tensions high, at least seven people were killed in three separate clashes between Morsi’s supporters and opponents in Cairo, according to hospital and security officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. The officials did not give more details. The violence raised the overall death toll to 23 since Sunday when a mass protest was held to mark the anniversary of Morsi’s inauguration. Protesters on Tuesday turned to a new target, massing a giant crowd outside Cairo’s Qasr el-Qobba presidential palace where Morsi has been working in recent days — though he was not believed to be inside — in addition to filling wide avenues outside another palace, central Tahrir Square and main squares in cities nationwide. Morsi’s supporters also increased their presence in the streets, after his Muslim Brotherhood and hard-line Islamist leaders called them out to defend what they say is the legitimacy of the country’s first freely elected president. Tens of thousands held marches in Cairo and other cities. With the clock ticking on the military’s ultimatum,
Associated Press
Opponents of Egypt’s Islamist President Mohammed Morsi bang drums during a protest Tuesday outside the presidential palace in Cairo, Egypt. Egypt was on edge following a “last-chance� ultimatum the military issued to Morsi, giving the president and the opposition 48 hours to resolve the crisis in the country or have the army step in with its own plan. many in the anti-Morsi and pro-Morsi camps were vowing to fight to the end. The president’s Islamist backers have stepped up warnings that it will take bloodshed to dislodge him, saying they would rather die fighting a military takeover than accept Morsi’s ouster just a year after the country’s first free election. “Seeking martyrdom to prevent the ongoing coup is what we can offer as a sign of gratitude to previous martyrs who died in the revolution,� Brotherhood stalwart Mohammed el-Beltagy wrote Tuesday in his official Facebook page. Fearing an implosion that could throw Egypt into chaos, U.S. officials said Washington has suggested to Morsi that he call early elections, though they underlined they were not demanding specific steps — and they said they had stressed to Egypt’s military that a coup would have consequences for U.S. aid. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter. Morsi adviser Ayman Ali denied that Washington asked the president to call for early presidential elections and said consultations were continuing to reach national conciliation and resolve the current political crisis. He did not elaborate. Morsi met with the army’s chief, Defense Minister Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, and Prime Minister Hesham Kandil in the second such meeting in as many days, Ali

GMT), though a countdown clock posted online by Morsi opponents put the deadline at 5 p.m. (1500 GMT). The military did not give a precise hour. Morsi faced new fissures within his leadership. Three government spokesmen — two for Morsi and one for the prime minister — were the latest to quit as part of high-level defections that underscored his increasing isolation and fallout from the military’s ultimatum. Five Cabinet ministers, including the foreign minister, resigned Monday, and sixth, Sports Minister El-Amry Farouq, quit Tuesday. OneultraconservativeSalafi party, al-Nour, also announced its backing for early elections. The party was once an ally of Morsi but in recent months has broken with him. Among the opposition crowds outside Qasr el-Qobba, one protester said he believes Morsi will not go easily. “He will only leave after a catastrophe. Lots of blood. And the military is the only party that can force him out then,� said Haitham Farouk, an oil company employee joining a protest for the first time. He said the “epic� crowds showed how Egypt’s public has turned against Morsi and his Brotherhood, which opponents claim is the real power behind the president. “This is everybody, not just the educated or the political,� Farouk said of the protesters. “They came down because only the brotherhood gained in the past two years.

said, without giving details. The army has insisted it has no intention to take power. But the reported army road map showed it was ready to replace Morsi and make a sweeping change in the ramshackle political structure that has evolved since Mubarak’s fall in February 2011. The constitution and domination of the legislature after elections held in late 2011-early 2012 are two of the Islamists’ and Brotherhood’s most valued victories — along with Morsi’s election last year. A retired army general with close ties to the military confirmed the news agency report’s version of the road map. Hossam Sweilam said a panel of experts would draft a new constitution and the interim administration would be a presidential council led by the Supreme Constitutional Court’s chief justice and including the defense minister, representatives of political parties, youth groups, AlAzhar Mosque and the Coptic Church. He said the military envisaged a one-year transitional period before presidential elections are held. The military spokesman, Col. Ahmed Mohammed Ali, declined to confirm the details. “It is too early and we don’t want to jump into conclusions,� he said. At least one anti-Morsi TV station put up a clock counting down to the end of the military’s ultimatum, putting it at 4 p.m. Wednesday (1400

For the first time in several summers, the Clanton Memorial Baseball Tournament will have the true look and feel of a bigtime event. Sixteen teams will compete Friday through Sunday in the 19 and under division of the 26th annual baseball tourney and an additional six will compete in the 16 and under division. “We just sent invitations out to as many teams as we could and see what would happen,” said Jared Rutti, sports director at the Garden City Recreation Commission and tournament organizer. “Each team is required to provide two dozen baseballs and they had to send us a $250 check ahead of time. At the end of the tournament, they’ll get their $250 check back so it really just costs them the two dozen baseballs. We knew we had to do something to get the teams away from other tournaments and get them to Garden City.” As a result of their efforts, Rutti and the organizing committee will have teams coming from Omaha in Nebraska; Grand Junction, Colorado Springs, Denver, Lamar and Hugo, Colo., and a number of Kansas teams. With the large field in the 19 and under division, teams have been placed in four pools of four teams each. Those groups will play a round-robin on Friday and Saturday and then be seeded into brackets for Sunday’s final day. That portion of the tournament will wrap up on Sunday with the lower three seeds facing other similar seeded teams for one game while the top four seeds will play in the semifinals at 9 and 11 a.m. with the championship game scheduled for 3 p.m., all of which will be played at Williams Stadium. For Friday and Saturday’s schedule, games will be played at both Williams Stadium and Clint Lightner Stadium as well as a number of the 16 and under games set for play at Academy Field, just north of Spruce Street and west of the US Highway 83 bypass. “We’re very happy and excited with the turnout and we think

Finney County Blues shortstop Logan Dechant tries to field a ball in the bottom of the third inning in a recent doubleheader at Lakin. we’ve got some quality teams,” Rutti said. “It will take about 10 umpires for us to cover all the games with two-man crews so they will be very busy.” Rutti said plans for 2014 call for an even bigger event that would extend over multiple weekends, with one age group competing one weekend and other age groups on a separate weekend. “We’d like to do the 19 and unders a week earlier next year,” Rutti said. Both the Finney County Blues and Finney County Bandits will be competing, the Blues in the 19 and under division and the Bandits in the 16 and under
bracket. With the 16 and under division having only six teams, the format calls for all teams to play five games in a round-robin competition. Each of the local teams will open play on Friday with one game, the Bandits facing Ulysses at 9 a.m. at Williams Stadium while the Blues will take on the Alma Chargers in the late game at 9 p.m., also at Williams Stadium. The Bandits also play at 5 p.m. against the Butler Cubs of El Dorado at Clint Lightner. The Blues will then play twice on Saturday, at 11 a.m. against Minneola and at 9 p.m. against Newton with both taking place at
Williams. The Bandits will play twice on Saturday at Academy Field, the fist at 9 a.m. against the Widefield Gladiators of Colorado Springs and then at 3 p.m. against Colby. For the Blues, coach Lyle Befort will bring a team into the tourney with a glossy 18-5 record, but also with some caution after playing in Pueblo, Colo., just two weekends ago where the going was tough. “We’ve had a lot of good things going, but when we played in Pueblo, we really got it handed to us,” Befort said. “We’ve got some really good teams coming in, with Cherry Creek (Denver area), Grand Junction and Omaha. We’ll have to play some of our best baseball if we want to be playing Sunday afternoon. I hope we learned from the Colorado experience that we have to tighten our defense and just play overall better baseball.” Thus far, the Blues have been hitting at a .352 clip on offense with Ian Jones leading the way at .586. Marcos Zapata is hitting .500 while Jake Curran is next at .489. Leadoff hitter Robert Tomlin is hitting .342 and has

stolen 18 bases in 19 attempts. The pitching has been anchored by Edgar Montoya, Isaiah Rodriguez and Curran, who have put together records of 4-1, 3-1 and 3-1. Overall, the mound crew has compiled a team earned-run-average of 2.85 with Ivan Gutierrez and Mario Montoya also pitching well with 2-1 and 2-0 marks. For the Bandits, coach Joe Kraft’s squad was 6-10 before Tuesday night’s road doubleheader at Lamar, Colo. He is looking for his team to improve and sees the home tournament as a way to gain some momentum. “We’ve got a number of kids who have been doing a good job of hitting,” Kraft said. “We’ve got to get this group to come together because we have not been hitting on all cylinders yet. We’ve got to remain positive and as long as we take care of the hitting, fielding, and pitching, we’ll be competitive.” Kraft was not sure who he would have on the mound for Friday’s opener, but the starter would likely come from among Nick Laurelz, Syrus Schwartz or Martin Torres.
Stephens out, Lisicki keeps winning at Wimbledon Royals’ pitching falters LONDON (AP) — If Sabine Lisicki had a letdown after defeating Serena Williams, it didn’t show. If Lisicki is penciling herself into the Wimbledon final, she isn’t saying. Showing no drop-off after her dramatic victory over Williams, the 23rd-seeded Lisicki returned Tuesday and made quick work of a much less intimidating opponent, 46th-ranked Kaia Kanepi, dispatching her 6-3, 6-3 in 65 minutes to advance to her second career Wimbledon semifinal. “I was ready today,” Lisicki said. “I knew from the past, out of experience, that I needed to make the switch quickly to be ready, and that’s what I did.” Indeed. Lisicki opened the match by breaking Kanepi’s serve in the first game and didn’t look back in that set. In the second, she had one hiccup — a game in which she double-faulted three times to drop a break and fall behind 2-1. She broke back right away, however, and won four of the next five games to close the match. Now, the 23-year-old German finds herself in the Wimbledon semifinals for the second time in three years. Her win against Williams made her the new, odds-on favorite to win the title and even pushed Britain’s favorite tennis player, Andy Murray, off the back pages of a couple London tabloids. All of which means almost nothing — at least to hear Lisicki tell it. “Match by match,” she said. “Did that from the start and will continue to do that.” Her next opponent is No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska, who defeated No. 6 Li Na 7-6 (5), 4-6, 6-2 in a match that took more than 3 1/2 hours to complete and included two rain delays, an injury timeout and a final game that lasted more than 10 minutes. The other semifinal will pit No. 15 Marion Bartoli of France against No. 20 Kirsten Flipkens

American Sloane Stephens plays a return to Marion Bartoli of France in a women’s singles quarterfinal match Tuesday at the All England Lawn Tennis Championships in Wimbledon, London. of Belgium. Flipkens beat eighth-seeded Petra Kvitova 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 to knock the last remaining Grand Slam tournament winner out of the draw. Flipkens won her first career Grand Slam quarterfinal, continuing quite a comeback from health problems that dropped her to No. 262 last year, not even eligible for the Wimbledon qualifying tournament. While Flipkens was winning, one of Belgium’s best, Kim Clijsters was at home in America watching. “Still drying my eyes,” Clijsters tweeted. “So proud of how (Flipkens) handled the big occasion for the first time!” Flipkens, who was sidelined with blood clots in her legs, counts Clijsters among the few who believed in her when things
got rough. “The people believing in me, I can count on one hand,” she said. “It’s amazing.” Bartoli eliminated the last remaining American singles player, beating Sloane Stephens 6-4, 75 in a match halted with Stephens serving, down 5-4 at deuce. After the delay, Bartoli came out and won two points to secure the first set. Soon after, she was showered with boos because she had asked the umpire to stop the match in the first set when it started sprinkling on Court 1. “I didn’t really get why the crowd was so against me at that point,” Bartoli said. “Already, the courts were a bit slippery even when it’s dry. When it’s wet, it can get dangerous. I didn’t want to stop the match for no reason. It was a precaution.”
Stephens said it would have been nice to finish the game before the break, which lasted about 2 1/2 hours. “Coming back and serving at deuce, that’s always going to be tough for anyone,” she said. This is Bartoli’s deepest trip at a Grand Slam since the 2011 French Open and her deepest trip at Wimbledon since 2007, when she lost to Venus Williams in what remains her only Grand Slam final. Meanwhile, Radwanska moved one win from her second straight Wimbledon final, putting Li away on the eighth match point. Radwanska called for a medical timeout after the second set so a trainer could work on her right thigh. Up 5-2 in the third set, she called for the trainer again for a quick treatment on both legs.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Carlos Santana and Asdrubal Cabrera each drove in a pair of runs, and the Cleveland Indians took advantage of some wild pitching by the Kansas City Royals in a 6-5 victory Tuesday night. Mark Reynolds and Jason Giambi also drove in runs for the Indians, who capitalized on eight walks by Royals starter Luis Mendoza and his bullpen to win their fifth straight game. Cody Allen (3-0) earned the win in relief for Cleveland, while Chris Perez survived putting two aboard in the ninth for his eighth save of the season. The AL Central-leading Indians led 4-0 before Alex Gordon’s grand slam in the fifth. But Royals reliever Tim Collins (2-3) walked the only two batters he faced in the seventh, Aaron Crow walked another to load the bases and Santana came through with a go-ahead sacrifice fly. Giambi added a run-scoring double later in the seventh that proved invaluable when the Royals’ Billy Butler hit an RBI double off Vinnie Pestano to make it 6-5. David Lough came to the plate with runners on the corners, but grounded into an inning-ending double play. It was Cleveland’s fifth win in its past six games against the Royals. After going on a 14-5 run to close out June, the Indians (4538) built on a four-game sweep of the White Sox by taking the opener of a three-game series from another division rival. It was their ninth win in 11 road games and put them seven games over .500 for the first time since May 24.

Single letters, short words and words using any apostrophe give you clues to locating vowels.
Many people move at the beginning of the month when leases are up or after mortgage payments are made. Fewer people move in the middle of the month, so you might find more affordable moving deals if you can wait a few extra weeks.

THE Garden City Telegram
By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer
The good news for LPGA Tour commissioner Mike Whan is that his sport is dominating the golf conversation, which is rare. For the last two days, it seems like every time Whan turns on TV is he hearing about Inbee Park, and that’s how it should be. When she completed a masterful week of putting and precision at Sebonack Golf Club, the 24-year-old South Korean had won the U.S. Women’s Open for her third straight major this year. Next up is a chance for Park to do what no golfer has done in the history of the royal and ancient game — win four professional majors in a single season. Adding to the moment is the venue — the Women’s British Open will be at St. Andrews, the home of golf. Any other year, the golf world would be buzzing over the prospect of a Grand Slam. But not this one. Because for such an historic occasion, there is way too much confusion. It was Whan who decided for noble reasons in 2010 to elevate The Evian Championship in France to major championship status starting in 2013, giving the LPGA Tour five majors for the first time in its 63-year history. Just his luck, it turned out to be the year one of his players had a shot at the Grand Slam. Except that winning four majors is not really a Grand Slam when there are five on the schedule. Is it? “If you would have asked me as a golf nut about five majors, I would have said, ‘It doesn’t feel right to me,”’ Whan said Tuesday morning. “Then you become commissioner of the LPGA Tour. Do you or don’t you? If you don’t ... your job here is to grow the opportunities for women in the game worldwide. We don’t get the exposure anywhere near the men’s game except for three or four times a year, and those are around the majors. “Jump forward to 2013,” he said. “The fact I can turn on the TV every night and the discussion is on the LPGA and five majors and what does this mean ... the world views this as frustrating. In my own silly world, this is the most attention we’ve had in a long time.” Golf always has been about four majors, at least it seems that way. It dates to 1930 when Bobby Jones swept the biggest championships of his era — the British Open, British Amateur, U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur. George Trevor of the New York Sun referred to this feat as the “impregnable quadrilateral” of golf, while O.B. Keeler of the Atlanta Journal gave it a name that didn’t require a stiff upper lip. He called it a Grand Slam, a term from contract bridge that meant winning all 13 tricks.
The spirit of that term is a clean sweep, whether it’s four, five or 13. Arnold Palmer gets credit for creating the modern version of the Grand Slam in 1960 when he won the Masters and U.S. Open and was on his way to play the British Open for the first time. He was traveling with Pittsburgh sports writer Bob Drum, who was lamenting that professional golf had led to the demise of what Jones had achieved in 1930. That’s when Palmer suggested a new Grand Slam by winning the four professional majors. Comparisons between men’s and women’s golf are never easy, especially in the majors. The PGA Tour and European Tour don’t own any of the four majors that its players have made famous. The press never bought into the notion of making The Players Championship a fifth major. It was Thomas Bonk of The Los Angeles Times who once wrote that there were “Three Stooges, Twelve Days of Christmas, Seven Dwarfs and four major championships.” Enough said. The LPGA Tour now has eight majors in its official history, including the du Maurier Classic, the Titleholders and the Western Open. Babe Zaharias is the last player to win three straight majors on the calendar, but that was in 1950 when that’s all there were. There was a five-year stretch in the 1970s when there were only two LPGA majors. And now there are five? Women’s golf is not as steeped in tradition. More importantly, its pockets have never been very deep. That’s why the LPGA Championship, which dates to 1955, essentially took over what had been a regular tour event in Rochester, N.Y. The PGA of America doesn’t have a women’s version of a major because, among other reasons, the LPGA Tour has its own teaching and club professional division. Tradition is the Kraft Nabisco, the only major played on the same course (Rancho Mirage) where the winner jumps into the pond. But it was a regular LPGA Tour event for 11 years before it was designated a major. The Women’s British Open was first played in 1976, became part of the LPGA schedule in 1994 and did not become a major until 2001. And now the LPGA has The Evian Championship, which only started in 2000 and now is supposed to be a major, right up there with the U.S. Women’s Open. Oddly enough, Park is the defending champion. The field will be similar. The course is the same. And now it’s a major. “Sometimes it’s hard to fit into the box how we compare history,” Whan said. “I stopped seeing asterisks in LeBron James from playing in the 3-pointer era. You could talk about no-hitters and the DH. I lived in the hockey world, and they make small rules changes. Sports moves forward.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Baylor basketball coach Kim Mulkey was suspended from her team’s next NCAA tournament game for criticizing the officiating after a loss to Louisville last spring. The NCAA on Monday also reprimanded Mulkey and withheld Baylor’s team championship per diem from the regional round. After Louisville upset top-seeded Baylor 82-81 in March, Mulkey said the game was far too physical and she singled out the officials. “I thought that all three of them, if they go past this round of officiating, it will be sad for the game,” she said then. “I thought the two critical calls at the end of the game were really bad.” The NCAA said it was issuing a more severe penalty because Mulkey is a repeat offender. She was reprimanded in 2011 for criticizing the NCAA for the decision to put the Lady Bears in the same tournament bracket with Texas A&M, a team they had faced three times already that season. The Aggies beat Baylor on their way to the national title. The NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Committee said the “latest misconduct act by Mulkey” warranted the more stringent suspension. “The committee unanimously felt that the behavior of Coach Mulkey was unacceptable and has no place in the women’s basketball championship,” said Carolayne Henry, committee chair and senior associate commissioner for the Mountain West Conference.
2011 Tour champ already in bother to Contador. So early in the Tour — the team race against the clock was only the fourth of 21 stages — such small losses are by no means fatal to Evans’ hopes of finishing on the podium in Paris on July 21. Riders who have bad days in the Pyrenees, in the second week, or on Mont Ventoux and in the Alps, in the third week, could lose far more than that on just one steep climb. Still, Evans was the first to acknowledge that handing this early edge to the big favorites for the overall victory was far from ideal. Somewhere, somehow, Evans now has to
make up that lost time if he can. Depending on how the race unfolds, the deficit could force the Australian to try to attack Froome and Contador in the mountains. That will be risky because both are better climbers than Evans. Contador, 30, and Froome, 28, are also a good bit younger than the 36-year-old Australian. “You look to gain every second at this point in the Tour and losing a lot of seconds certainly isn’t what I hoped for today and it isn’t what I expected,” he said. “We’ve been put on the back foot and we’ll have to see what opportunities come our way.
“The simple analysis is we weren’t fast enough.” That wasn’t true of Orica-GreenEdge. The team of six Australians, a Canadian, a Swiss rider and a South African made itself at home on the Promenade des Anglais — “the promenade of the English” — with the quickest ever team time trial on the 15.5-mile route that went out and back along the famous beachside avenue in the Mediterranean city of Nice. Racing past the palm trees Orica beat Omega Pharma-Quick Step by less than 1 second and Froome’s Team Sky by 3 seconds.

Park: 1 more leg for Slam, or is it 2? Mulkey suspended for 1 game
NICE, France (AP) — At the Tour de France, it really isn’t a cliche to say that every second counts. As a former winner, Cadel Evans knows that better than most. The 2011 champion was one of the losers Tuesday in the team time trial. Even riding bikes that cost as much as a good secondhand family saloon car, with sharp edges to slice through the air and fancy electric gears, Evans and his teammates still couldn’t keep up with two of his main rivals — Chris Froome and Alberto Contador. Evans surrendered 23 seconds to Froome and 17

BIZARRO
Jacquelline Bigar King Features
The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH Keep reaching out to a respected friend. You like to bounce ideas off this person, especially since you often gain insight and direction during your conversations. You could find that an unexpected event has you moving in a new direction. Tonight: Pay bills. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You know much more than you are prepared to reveal; however, a conversation could open you up to various possibilities. You’ll gain insight when someone tosses a wild idea in your direction. You do not need to say much about your perception -- just observe. Tonight: Be wild. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Your instincts will be right on, but you still might decide to stay mum for a little while. As an observer, you learn a lot more than you realize. Stay open, and enjoy the interactions around you. Deal with a financial issue. You know what to do. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH A conversation with a friend will support your decision to head in a certain direction. You might not always agree with this person, but in the long run, this seems like the best way to go. You finally can clear the air, and you’ll feel better as a result. Tonight: Follow your friends! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might feel as if you are the centeSomeone needs you. You give 100 percent of yourself in almost any project. How much you choose to share could vary with the moment. You don’t need to spill the beans just yet. Reveal more than you have, and see how the other person responds. Tonight: In the limelight. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH Kick back, and take advantage of the moment to see the whole picture. You might not feel comfortable with everything that you are seeing, but you need to sit on your feelings for now. Time will have an interesting effect on your perception. Tonight: Where there is great music.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Listen to what someone shares. During the conversation, or afterward when reflecting on it, you might see how a misunderstanding could have occurred. Though you might not be in the mood to open up about what you see, a sense of relaxation will take over. Tonight: Visit a friend. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Others seem more willing to explain where they are coming from. Do not react immediately to what someone says, but be willing to think over his or her words. You’ll be able to visualize how you might have misread the situation. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Prioritize, and you’ll be able to take care of far more than you thought possible. A younger person has a lot to share. Listen, and you might like what you hear. A loved one surprises you with his or her actions. Be thankful to have this person in your life. Tonight: Make it early. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Your imagination will kick in during a discussion. Know that you’re able to light up someone’s life just by relaxing more. Your ingenuity can be a source of fun and pleasure. There is no reason not to reveal your more creative side. Tonight: Hang out with your pals. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Stay close to your home or workplace. Though you usually enjoy an adventure or two, you might need a little more calmness right now. You could hear news that initially surprises you. Later, when you realize the implications, all you can do is smile. Tonight: Invite a friend over. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You are likely to say exactly what you mean, but know that someone might surprise you with what he or she hears. Armed with that information, you will know what to do. If you are not on the same page as someone, it might be difficult to prevent squabbles. Tonight: Your treat.

Wednesday July 4, 2013 HAPPY BIRTHDAY The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH Strap on your seat belt. You are about to enter a three-week period of chaos. Do not sign anything that involves your home or domestic life through mid-July. Opportunities will reappear shortly afterward. Tonight: Chat with a dear friend. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Just when you start to think you have it all together, you might discover that you don’t. A challenging person could push you to the point where you have an issue. Communication is highlighted. Tonight: Work on an important project till the wee hours. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Recent events might propel you to take another look, especially as you encounter a standstill. You never anticipate a snafu, but in the next few weeks you could have more than your fair share of them. Use good sense with your finances. Tonight: Let your mind drift. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Honor a change. You can’t get away from the feeling that you are about to enter a new phase of life. First, test out and share any details, especially in areas involving your goals. Refuse to stand on ceremony with others for the next few weeks. Tonight: Be with a favorite person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might want to defer to others as tension builds. One way to avoid a misunderstanding is to let someone else run the show. Just the same, you might have an issue with maintaining clarity. Tonight: Test out an idea with a trusted adviser before you share it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Emphasize networking and communication, as interactions might not be going smoothly. The good news is that you’ll be able to find out what the cause is. Use this knowledge to make corrections. Tap into your imagination to create more of what you want. Tonight: Play it easy.
DAY IN THE STARS
BIZARRO
Jacquelline Bigar King Features
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Allow your ingenuity to carry you through an awkward moment or two. Stay open to the possibilities, and you’ll see what goes on behind the scenes. What you do with that information is your call. You might not have the control you desire. Tonight: Take a midweek break. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Communicate with a family member rather than stand on ceremony with this person. Pressure builds to an unprecedented level if you ignore a domestic matter. Let your creativity and intellect merge. As a result, you’ll find the answers quickly. Tonight: Head on home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You might be more verbal than you realize. Your focus remains on a key relationship, even if you are out socializing and networking. Confusion surrounds your home or a domestic issue. Make sure that everyone’s watch is set to the same time zone! Tonight: Make it easy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might want to hold off on making any big purchases or signing any agreements for a while. This might be hard to sit on, but if you don’t, the chance of something backfiring is high. More will come out about this situation later, if you just wait. Tonight: Treat a friend to dinner. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You beam, despite having a lot of responsibility on your plate. These extra tasks actually are a reward for being very present in a situation and making good decisions. Understand that there are limits to your energy. Save time for yourself, too. Tonight: Try being a bit lazy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Your sensitivity and ability to observe will merge. You might not want to spill the beans, and that would be a wise decision. A new friend would like some extra attention. Be careful with relationships like this, as others are more on edge than normal. Tonight: Go with the moment.
