If this is a little too tart for your taste, serve it over ice.

Salted caramel fudge ice cream pie

FROM 1C friends, try my salted caramel fudge ice cream pie. This decadent dessert is insanely good and simple. First, I spread prepared fudge sauce on a pre-made graham cracker crust to cover the bottom. Then I used Great Value, the Walmart brand, of sea salt ice cream, which also has little chocolate chunks in it, and spread that on top of the fudge. This ice cream is sweet, slightly salty, rich and soft. I refroze the pie for one hour and topped it with caramel popcorn just before serving to give it a little crunch. This dessert will get guests talking — once they are done stufﬁng their mouths. It was a mega hit at a dinner party last week. And if you need a drink recipe, try my Moscato strawberry lemonade which has only four ingredients and it comes together in 5 minutes. It’s very hard to say how many it will serve because it depends on if you have light or heavy drinks but it should serve 6 or more. A bubbly moscato is your best bet, but any inexpensive moscato works, too (even Sutter Home).

STONE FROM 1C Tomatoes, celery, cucumbers, lettuce, onions, peppers (especially green), potatoes and radishes don’t freeze well. Watermelon, grapes and citrus fruits are good fresh or frozen but nowhere in between. Citrus zest on the other hand freezes like a dream. • SOME DAIRY PRODUCTS and raw eggs are just no good frozen. They separate and get all yucky. Soft cheeses, cream cheese, custard, cottage cheese, yogurt and sour cream are in this category. Mayonnaise and salad dressings aren’t great either. • SAUCES AND GRAVIES thickened with cornstarch or ﬂour will separate. It’s better to freeze them, then

Moscato strawberry lemonade SERVES 6 OR MORE

1 (12-ounce) can frozen strawberry daiquiri mix 1 cup frozen lemonade (you will need a 12-ounce can) 1 bottle of Moscato, chilled 2 cans of water (the 12-ounce can) 11/4 cups water It’s important to note you will not use the full can of lemonade,

add the thickener when reheating. Freezing meals is a great way to make busy nights go smoothly, but follow these tips so you don’t end up completely wasting your time, food and precious freezer space: • YOU CAN ASSEMBLE A DISH, such as lasagna or a casserole and freeze it without cooking it ﬁrst. Thaw the dish completely in the fridge, then bake as normal. If it’s a dish with pasta, it will be best if the pasta is undercooked when you freeze it. Otherwise it will be mush. • DISHES BASED ON MEAT, grains and vegetables freeze great. If it has dairy, consider adding it when you reheat the dish. For example, add milk, light cream or yogurt to a soup toward the end of warming, and add cheese to pesto and other sauces after they are thawed.

instead you measure out 1 cup. Note, there are also instructions to add 2 cans of water, plus 11/4 cups. In a large pitcher, combine all ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed. Chill until time to serve. If you plan to serve it immediately, you need to make sure the water you use to mix is chilled. This drink is sweet and tart, and I don’t taste the alcohol at all so it’s a little dangerous on a hot day because it does down easy. Just be sure you know how much you are drinking.

• COOL FOOD COMPLETELY before placing it in the freezer. If you care about everything else in your freezer, this is important. Also, the quicker food freezes, the better it will be when it thaws. Food that freezes slowly forms large ice crystals that will make the dish mushy. You’re armed with the basics; go forth and ﬁll that freezer. Try these recipes for dishes that freeze ﬂawlessly.

Freezer-friendly zucchini chicken enchiladas 1 teaspoon olive oil 1 zucchini, chopped 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded 1/2 cup corn 1 cup onion, diced 2 large clove garlic, minced Salt 1 teaspoon cumin 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon chili powder 1/3 cup chicken broth

1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust 1 (48-ounce) container of Great Value Down by the Sea Salt Caramel ice cream 1/2 cup prepared Hershey’s fudge sauce (or your favorite) 3 1 /4 cups caramel popcorn This dessert is absolutely divine and super easy. First, spread fudge sauce in the bottom of the pie crust. Then top with about 33/4 cups of the ice cream (can use a little more or a little less). The ice cream is soft so you need to work quickly while you spread it. Cover and refrigerate one hour or more. Just before serving, top with caramel popcorn. Slice and serve. It’s a little messy, but no one will care when they taste it.

Stuffed mushroom dip SERVES 8-10

1 pound sage sausage 16 ounces button mushrooms 8 ounces cream cheese 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning 1 teaspoon garlic salt 3 green onions, sliced 11/2 cups Italian style shredded cheese 1 cup shredded colby jack-Cheddar mix

1/2 cup tomato sauce

8 whole wheat tortillas Enchilada sauce 1 cup shredded low-fat Mexican blend cheese Heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute garlic, onion and zucchini until soft. Add chicken, corn, salt (to taste), oregano, chili powder, chicken broth, and tomato sauce. Cook for about ﬁve minutes and remove from heat. Stir in 1/4 cup of the cheese. If you’re freezing: Line a baking dish with aluminum foil. Place about 1/2 cup of the chicken mixture in each tortilla and roll. Repeat with all tortillas, and place in the baking dish. If you need multiple rows, separate them with aluminum foil. Freeze, then transfer frozen enchiladas to freezer bags. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spoon enchilada sauce into the bottom of a baking dish.

ON THE TABLE

3 green onions French bread for serving Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large frying pan, fry the sausage and break it up with a spoon. While it cooks, take a damp paper towel and wipe any dirt off the mushrooms. Slice the mushrooms and add them to the pan when the sausage is half cooked. Add Italian seasoning and garlic salt. When the sausage is cooked fully, drain off the fat and return sausage and mushrooms to pan. Add the cream cheese and sliced onions (reserving a few onions for the top). Turn the heat to medium low and cook until the cream cheese melts. Add 1/2 cup only of the cheese. Place the mixture in a deepdish pie pan or a 9-by-9-inch pan. It must be a deep dish or it will spill over. Top with the rest of the cheese and onions. Bake for 15 minutes or until bubbling. Serve with French bread. If you make it up a day in advance and don’t bake it until the party, it will likely take 25 minutes to bake.

Couple plan trip to Alaska after eclipse BY ERIN MATHEWS The Salina Journal

SALINA, Kan. (AP) — When Fred and Susan Patterson ﬂew toward Salina on Monday, they got to see the solar eclipse from 35,000 feet. But their trip home promises to be even more memorable. The Kodiak, Alaska, couple will be driving the 2,000mile way home in a sea foam green 1950 Chevrolet pickup truck with “character dents” and a top speed of about 50 miles an hour. They intend to take back roads, wave at people and stop at every little brewery along the way for a photo with their truck, which has Alaskan Brewing Co. logos on the doors because that’s where one of their daughters works. “It will be a good adventure,” Susan said. “Our daughter loves to research Airbnb’s, so she’s gotten us places to stay.”

WAITED FOR SUMMER Fred, who regularly visits his cousin Dianne Collicott, of Salina, and her husband, Olin, bought the pickup in Salina about a year ago. It was winter, and to avoid the treacherous weather, he and Susan, who are both 78, planned to return this summer to drive their pickup home. The truck, which they purchased from Salinan Tim Pestinger, has only about 48,000 miles on its original engine. Pestinger said he thought the truck was pretty cool and bought it “on a whim” at an estate sale in White

Mayweather, McGregor ready to rumble THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS — Conor McGregor has been kept pretty much under wraps ever since his fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. was announced, emerging occasionally to trash Mayweather only to disappear again behind the closed doors of the UFC training center. It’s not by accident. The biggest selling point of the spectacle that is Saturday night’s 154-pound fight is the unknown. Is McGregor good enough to land a big punch on Mayweather? Did he acquire enough boxing skills in just a few short months to make what should be a lopsided fight competitive? Inquiring minds want to know, and there are enough of them to make this the most watched fight in history. Some 50 million people in the U.S. alone are expected to gather with friends and family to see it all unfold. “I will be the king of both sports,” McGregor crowed. “I’m already the king of fighting, I’ll soon be the king of boxing.” Not so fast, said Mayweather, who comes from a boxing family and famously began throwing punches before he could walk. “After 21 years I’ve been hit with everything and I’m still right here,”

Mayweather said. “If you give it you must be able to take it.” It’s a fight that really makes no sense other than millions of people want to watch it. But the economics of the fight wouldn’t make any sense, either, if people saw McGregor — the UFC star who has never boxed professionally — in action and decided he just wasn’t good enough to be in the ring with a fighter like Mayweather. No mystique, no 5 million buys on Showtime pay-per-view. That’s why there was never any chance of McGregor having a tuneup fight. And that is why the only boxing anyone outside McGregor’s inner circle has seen was him hitting the heavy bag in a comical media day performance and a few seconds of a UFC clip purportedly showing him knocking down Showtime announcer and former fighter Paulie Malignaggi. No worries, said McGregor, who says his boxing talents shouldn’t be underestimated. “I’ve been lacing up the gloves my entire existence,” McGregor said. “Of course, we will come with a different approach than people are used to, we will paint many pictures inside the ring. It’s not going to end well for Floyd. It’s not going to end well for all the people who are doubting me and are so convinced that this is what it is.”

McGregor’s fan base is driving this fight, united in their fervent hope that the Irish UFC champion can muscle Mayweather around the ring and deliver knockout punches to his head. Sports books in this gambling city have taken so many longshot wagers on McGregor winning by a knockout early that they will suffer their worst loss ever should it actually happen. What should be a 100-1 fight began as 11-1 in Mayweather’s favor. Now it’s 5-1, though a lot of big money — including a few million dollar bets — has been wagered on Mayweather in recent days. “I don’t see him lasting two rounds,” McGregor said. “He messed up with the 8-ounce gloves. Keep your hands up, keep them down. I don’t care. I’m going to break through whatever is in front of me.” For the flamboyant McGregor the fight is a chance to make money he couldn’t dream of in the UFC and gain a fan base outside of mixed martial arts. Estimates vary, but he could take home $100 million for a challenge of Mayweather that seemed improbable when he first started talking about it two years ago. He’s got youth on his side (he’s 29 and Mayweather is 40), and he’ll probably go in the ring much heavier than Mayweather after rehydrating following Friday’s weigh-in.

Pitt State men’s basketball adds three D-I transfers FROM STAFF REPORTS sports@joplinglobe.com

The Pittsburg State men’s basketball program announced the addition of NCAA Division I transfers Donovan Franklin, Demetrius Levarity and Grant Lozoya on Thursday. “We are excited to welcome Grant, Demetrius, and Donovan to our Gorilla basketball family,”Gorillas coach Kim Anderson said in a press release. “All three have played in great programs that will help prepare them for the challenges of Division II and the always-tough MIAA. “Grant brings solid ball handling, shooting and intensity from the combo guard spot. Demetrius is a versatile forward who can put the ball on the ﬂoor and shoot from the perimeter.

Donovan is an outstanding wing player who can score in a variety of ways and handle the ball efﬁciently.” Franklin, 6-foot-5, 210 pounds, heads into his junior season at PSU after averaging 4.2 points and 1.5 rebounds a game last season at Indiana State. Levarity, a 6-7, 210 forward, redshirted last season at Sam Houston State. He played his previous two seasons at Southeastern Illinois College and averaged 15.2 points and 4.3 rebounds in the 2015-16 season. Lozoya, a 6-3, 180 guard, is a transfer from Stetson where he averaged 9.6 points and 3.3 rebounds for the Hatters as a freshman in 2014-15, earning all-freshman honors. He averaged 7.4 points and 2.5 rebounds as a sophomore and was a medical redshirt last year.

Johnson, Spieth, Fowler part of logjam at top of Northern Trust THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OLD WESTBURY, N.Y. — Two swings cost Dustin Johnson the lead. It wasn’t long before Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler caught up to him in The Northern Trust, setting up a weekend of star power in the opening FedEx Cup playoff event. Johnson, ﬁnally looking like the No. 1 player who

looked unstoppable in the spring, appeared on the verge of building a big lead at Glen Oaks Club until consecutive tee shots wound up on the wrong holes and forced him to scramble just to escape with bogey. Fowler made up a ﬁve-shot deﬁcit in six holes playing alongside Johnson, making a 15-foot birdie on the last hole for a 66 to join Johnson

and Jhonattan Vegas (65) atop the leaderboard. And then Spieth put together a stretch Friday afternoon reminiscent of his British Open victory, minus a shot from the driving range, in a 65. Spieth began the back nine with ﬁve straight birdies, matching his longest birdie streak on the PGA Tour. It ended with a bogey

2 suspects in Spain attacks ordered held without bail

10 THINGS YOU CAN DO AFTER BEING A JOPLIN GLOBE NEWSPAPER CARRIER FOR 1 YEAR.

Another man freed THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADRID — A judge ordered two of the four surviving suspects in the extremist attacks in Spain held without bail, another detained for 72 more hours and one freed with restrictions Tuesday after the men appeared in court to answer questions about the events that killed 15 people. National Court Judge Fernando Andreu issued his orders after quizzing the four about the vehicle attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils, as well as about the fatal explosion at a bomb-making workshop that police said scuttled the group’s plot to carry out a more deadly attack at unspeciﬁed Barcelona monuments. The judge said there was enough evidence to hold Mohamed Houli Chemlal, 21, and Driss Oukabir, 28, on preliminary charges of causing homicides and injuries of a terrorist nature and of belonging to a terrorism organization. Houli Chemlal also has an additional charge of dealing with explosives. However, the judge ruled the evidence was “not solid enough” to keep holding suspect Mohamed Aalla, who was freed on the conditions he appear in court weekly, relinquish his passport and not leave Spain. The owner of a cybercafe in Ripoll, the Pyrenees hometown to most of 12 men originally identiﬁed as being members of the extremist cell behind the attacks, will remain in custody for at least 72 more hours while police inquiries continue, the judge said. The questioning of the four men underwent during their initial court appearances provided new details about the scope of the cell’s activities and the events

leading up to the attacks in and around Barcelona last week. Two of the suspects identified a Ripoll imam, Abdelbaki Es Satty, as the ideological leader of the group, according to a judicial official who heard Tuesday’s interrogations. One said the bombs were being made to target a Barcelona monument where the imam planned to blow himself up as well, the court official said. Instead, Es Satty and another man accidently blew themselves up while preparing explosives in the home workshop in Alcanar, a coastal town south of Barcelona, police have said. The court official was not authorized to speak about ongoing cases and requested anonymity. Five others were shot dead by police during the vehicle and knife attack in Cambrils. One, the suspected driver of the van that mowed down pedestrians in Barcelona’s Las Ramblas promenade, was shot and killed in a vineyard not far from the city on Monday. Houli Chemlal, the only survivor of the Alcanar blast, told the court he was alive because he was on the ground floor of the house washing dishes after dinner. He testified from a wheelchair without lifting his eyes up from the ground, according to the court official.

Oukabir testified that he rented the vans used in the attacks but thought they were going to be used for a house move. His brother was one of the five men shot dead Friday by police in Cambrils. According to another person who attended Tuesday’s hearings, Oukabir said he initially lied out of fear and told police his brother had stolen his ID to rent the vehicles. The person spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the hearing. Aalla, who said an Audi A3 used in the attack in Cambrils was registered under his name but used by a sibling, had one brother killed in Cambrils and another who is believed to be a second casualty of the Alcanar house blast. Ripoll cybercafe owner Sahl El Karib told the judge he was only trying to make a profit when he bought at least two airplane tickets for two alleged members of the cell. Police raided the cybercafe on Tuesday, as well as a farmhouse in another town, searching for more evidence. The lone fugitive from the cell — 22-year-old Younes Abouyaaqoub — was shot to death Monday west of Barcelona after a massive manhunt. Police say he flashed what turned out to be a fake suicide belt at two officers who confronted him in a vineyard.

CINCINNATI — Rookie Patrick Mahomes threw a pair of touchdown passes, solidifying his spot as the Chiefs’ primary backup, and three Kansas City quarterbacks threw for a score on Saturday night during a 30-12 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Kansas City (1-1) got a lot to like out of its offense overall and its top pick in particular. Mahomes moved into the role of Alex Smith’s backup a week ago and was smooth against the Bengals (1-1), who chased him from the pocket but couldn’t stop his accurate on-themove throws. Mahomes, the 10th overall pick from Texas Tech, was 10 of 14 for 88 yards with touchdowns of 1 and 7 yards. The Chiefs scored on each of their first five possessions for a 30-9 lead. Smith was 8 of 9 for 83 yards with a TD, and Tyler Bray threw an 18-yard touchdown on his first play. Kansas City piled up 410 yards, including 228 rushing. Charcandrick West ran for 113 yards on only seven carries. The Bengals had to settle for a pair of field goals during Andy Dalton’s three possessions. He was 7 of 13 for 98 yards with one sack. Cincinnati’s kicking competition remained all even. Randy Bullock and Jake Elliott have made all of their attempts in two games. Bullock connected from 47 and 26 yards on

ROOKIE WATCH CHIEFS: Third-round pick Kareem Hunt got a chance to show his versatility. He was limited to one carry and one catch in the preseason opener. On Saturday, he was the featured running back on the ﬁrst two drives. Hunt had 8 carries for 40 yards and 3 catches for 23 yards. BENGALS: Top draft pick John Ross was held out of a second straight preseason game as he recovers from shoulder surgery.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Trevor Bauer pitched 6 1/3 innings as the Cleveland Indians beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0 on Saturday night. Bauer (12-8) won his fifth straight decision — the longest winning streak of his career that started after a July 17 loss. He gave up seven hits, walked two and struck out four. Relievers Bryan Shaw and Cody Allen did not allow a hit over the final 2 2/3 innings to complete the shutout. Bauer joins teammates Corey Kluber and Carlos Carrasco as 12-game winners. The Indians are the only team in the majors with three 12-game winners. Roberto Perez delivered the clutch blow, a two-out, two-strike, two-run single in the fourth inning that scored Jay Bruce and Carlos Santana. Jose Ramirez and Jason Kipnis hit consecutive doubles in the first inning for the first Cleveland run. Bruce’s RBI-double in the fifth scored Ramirez, who had walked, and finished left-hander Jason Vargas’

evening. Vargas (14-7), who had 12 victories at the end of June, gave up four runs, six hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings. The Royals dropped to 6-12 in August, while the rotation has a 5.99 ERA for the month. Santana doubled and scored on Jackson’s single in the eighth for the ﬁnal Indians run. The Indians are an American League-best 20-8 since July 21 and are 8-2 on their four-city 11-game trip that concludes Sunday.

TRAINER’S ROOM ROYALS: RHP Neftali Feliz was placed on the 10-day disabled list retroactive to Monday with right ulnar nerve palsy. “It’s not bad,” Yost said. “It’s probably going to be a four, ﬁve-day thing, but right now we can’t afford to go short.”

UP NEXT: INDIANS: RHP Danny Salazar is 0-2 with 4.63 ERA in four appearances this season against the Royals. ROYALS: RHP Jason Hammel is 2-0 with a 2.84 ERA in two starts this year against Cleveland.

Frazier HR, 3 hits help Pirates top Cards to end 6-game skid THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PITTSBURGH — Adam Frazier homered, doubled and singled as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-4 Saturday to end a six-game losing streak. Frazier hit a two-run homer in the second and doubled off the wall the next inning. Starling Marte and pinch-hitter Jose Osuna also homered for Pittsburgh. The Cardinals scored 11 runs in each of their two wins to start this series. Paul DeJong hit a

two-run homer in the eighth and Jose Martinez homered in the ninth. Chad Kuhl (6-8) responded well following a rain delay that lasted nearly two hours, giving up one run and three hits in five innings. Felipe Rivero got his 13th save. Michael Wacha (9-6) was tagged for five runs and seven hits in four innings. Wacha retired the side in order in the first, but the Pirates scored five times in the second. A leadoff walk set up Frazier’s

home run, and Kuhl later doubled before Marte connected. Cardinals: RHP Josh Lucas, 26, came in to start the ﬁfth inning in relief of Wacha. He worked around a pair of singles in his ﬁrst inning and gave up Osuna’s homer the next inning. St. Louis recalled Lucas, who allowed one run on four hits with two strikeouts in two innings, from Triple-A Memphis and optioned RHP Mike Mayers on Friday.

Harlan said the shelter can cover its expenses if it brings in roughly $375,000 from donations, local governments and adoption fees. Last year, it did not meet that mark. The shelter’s financial difficulties have prompted some to suggest that it doesn’t have the support to remain open. John Bartosh, presiding commissioner for Jasper County, suggested that one animal shelter — the Joplin Humane Society — would suffice for the county. Jasper County’s 2017 budget included $12,000 for the Joplin shelter and $8,000 for CHS. The county’s funding for CHS is paid out not in a lump sum but per animal brought to the shelter by the sheriff or by residents of rural areas. Bartosh requested that change this year after shelter officials failed to pick up the money allotted to them by the county last year. Don Kittrell, president of the board of directors, said the shelter was not aware the money was available. The last time the board met, they were faced with more than a dozen community members concerned

about conditions at the shelter. One woman’s outraged Facebook post had snowballed, bringing other concerned residents out of the woodwork, some of whom said they had observed soiled cages and sick dogs. The board called a shelter meeting to respond, and Harlan said the attendees seemed satisfied by officials’ explanations. Cages at the shelter are given a thorough scrubbing daily, in the morning, and are spot-cleaned throughout the afternoon, according to CHS employees. The procedure is similar to the one used at the Joplin Humane Society. Animals at the shelter are fed regularly with nutritious food, according to Putnam, CHS director. He said many animals arrive at the shelter malnourished, and that the stress inherent in living at the shelter makes weight gain difficult. Burnett said conditions have improved since the public outcry. “I haven’t seen any issues since (the uproar),” she said. “I think they’re actually feeding them more.”

State seeks sales tax owed by lingerie shop owners Documents: Owners owe state $46,452 BY JEFF LEHR jlehr@joplinglobe.com

The operators of a nowclosed lingerie shop in Joplin have been charged with 26 counts of failing to pay sales tax. Charges were filed June 20 in Jasper County Circuit Court and arrest warrants issued for Guy A. Allen and Echo Byfield, both of Miami, Oklahoma, following an investigation by the Missouri Department of Revenue. Court records do not show that either defendant has been arrested as yet. Probable-cause affidavits state that Allen and Byfield registered 3 Plus 3 Enterprises as a limited liability company with the Office of the Missouri Secretary of State in July 2013 and that Byfield registered their In the Garden of Eden shop at 1901 E. 32nd St. as the company’s place of business in September of the same year. Allen and Byfield obtained a state sales tax license Nov. 1, 2013, and began filing monthly sales tax returns and meeting sales tax due dates through May 31, 2014, according to the affidavits. But the investigation found that beginning on May 1, 2014, and continuing through March 31, 2015, they filed monthly sales tax returns but failed to pay the sales tax due, and that from April 1, 2015, through June

POLICE | COURT FROM STAFF REPORTS

Defendant bound over for trial on charge of assaulting officer NEOSHO, Mo. — After a preliminary hearing on Tuesday in Newton County Circuit Court, a judge ordered a 29-year-old defendant bound over for trial on felony counts of resisting arrest and assaulting a Joplin police officer. Associate Court Judge Kevin Selby found probable cause at the hearing for Jim Crumbross, of Potsdam, New York, to stand trial on charges of third-degree assault of a special victim and resisting arrest. The judge set the defendant’s first appearance in a trial division of the court for Sept. 11. Crumbross is accused of head-butting Cpl. Thomas Bowin in the face while being arrested July 11 after a disturbance outside A Cut Above Polish Shop, 4538 S. Highway 43. Bowin, who responded to the disturbance with two other officers, said the defendant was smoking a cigarette and did not comply with requests for him to put the cigarette out and place his hands behind his back when officers decided to arrest him. Bowin testified that Crumbross was pulling away from the other two officers as they tried to get his hands behind his back to handcuff him. Bowin testified that as he reached to take the cigarette from the defendant’s mouth, Crumbross head-butted him hard enough to cause redness, swelling and bruising to his face. The officer said under cross-examination by public defender Katherine McRell that none of the officers involved were wearing body cameras and the incident was not caught on tape by any of their dashboard cameras.

investigation by police. Ofﬁcers responding to an alarm at 2:11 a.m. Monday indicating a possible burglary in progress at the Twisted Vape Shop, 921 S. Pennsylvania Ave., found the glass in the front door broken out. Capt. Trevor Duncan said the shop appeared to have been rummaged through and numerous items were reported stolen. He said store surveillance video showed the crime had been committed by four people wearing bandannas and hooded sweatshirts that obscured their faces. A few hours later a break-in was reported at Your Dog’s Best Friend, a pet-grooming business at 2922 S. Main St. The glass in the front door of the shop had been broken out and the back door kicked in. Duncan said a small amount of cash had been taken. That burglary is believed to have taken place sometime between 3 p.m. Saturday and 6:30 a.m. Monday. Leggett & Platt reported tools stolen in an apparent burglary of a building the company owns at 3002 S. Prigmore Ave. Duncan said it was unknown how the culprit gained entry, but the crime is believed to have taken place between 10:30 a.m. Saturday and 5:30 a.m. Monday.

Joplin police investigate shotgun blast at residence

Police are investigating an incident early Monday morning involving the ﬁring of a shotgun at a house in a central Joplin neighborhood. A resident in the 2000 block of South Joplin Avenue reported that he was awake at 2:12 a.m. when he saw two males in a maroon Ford F-150 pickup truck drive past his house and appear to circle the block.

with birdshot and evidence in the alley that a shotgun had been ﬁred there. Duncan said they also found a couple bags of methamphetamine on the ground in the alley.

Area man to stand trial in drug trafficking case MOUNT VERNON, Mo. — A rural Aurora man waived a preliminary hearing Monday on drug trafficking and stealing charges and was ordered bound over for trial. Daniel J. Simpson, 35, waived the hearing in Lawrence County Circuit Court on charges of first-degree trafficking in drugs, stealing a motorcycle and theft of firearms. Associate Court Judge Scott Sifferman set the defendant’s initial appearance in a trial division of the court for Oct. 10. The charges stem from a search warrant served June 29 at the defendant’s home near Aurora by officers with the Combined Ozarks Multi-jurisdictional Enforcement Team drug task force. A probable-cause affidavit alleges that the search turned up bags containing more than 65 grams of methamphetamine locked inside one of three combination safes kept in a bedroom closet. Task force members also seized $5,252 cash as well as a motorcycle, handgun and shotgun that proved to be stolen, according to the affidavit.

Joplin woman injured in two-vehicle crash A Joplin woman suffered minor injuries in a two-vehicle crash at 7:45 a.m. Tuesday on Apricot Road, 2 miles south of Joplin in Newton County, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

Oklahoma AG seeks to dismiss preapproval case THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OKLAHOMA CITY — Oklahoma’s attorney general has requested that state regulators dismiss a preapproval case for a utility that wants to build a $4.5 billion wind farm. The motion against the Public Service Co. of Oklahoma’s Wind Catcher project was ﬁled last week by Attorney General Mike Hunter’s public utility division, The Oklahoman reported. The motion argues the utility didn’t follow competitive bidding rules and hasn’t shown a need for new generation. “The Attorney General’s full participation is essen-

tial, as PSO’s customers are at risk to bear the $1.36 billion cost of the Wind Catcher project if the commission grants PSO’s requested relief,” the motion said. The motion also said the pending PSO rate case and the Wind Catcher case together could create a $250 million annual rate case increase by 2021. “This proceeding should therefore be dismissed and commission review deferred until the Wind Catcher Project is in service and can be evaluated holistically with the rest of PSO’s operations,” the motion said. A PSO statement said

the project would save its customers money, promote investment in the state and provide additional diversity to its generation ﬂeet. “We believe the commission will allow the case to move forward and ultimately support the project moving forward so these beneﬁts can be realized,” the statement said. Public Service Co. of Oklahoma and Southwestern Electric Power Co. are planning to purchase the project but are still awaiting regulatory approvals. The utilities serve more than a million customers in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana.

I must admit that I dreaded seeing Lasse Hollstram’s latest film, “A Dog’s Purpose.” Months before, I’d been unable to watch the trailer without crying, so that didn’t bode well for the film. And I tend to avoid dog films after the trauma of viewing “Hachi: A Dog’s Tale” (also directed by Hollstram), which led to nights of sobbing and wadded-up Kleenexes and days of sadness. But the allure of cute canines was too strong, so I succumbed and popped “A Dog’s Purpose” in my Blu-ray player the other night. Although I did end up shedding a few tears, much to my surprise I was able to power through and enjoy the film. Based on the best-selling novel of the same name by W. BRUCE CAMERON, “A DOG’S PURPOSE” depicts the story of one dog who, in his quest to find the meaning of his life, reincarnates again and again. Once he gets past a short life as a stray dog, he is reborn as a golden retriever and finds himself attached to young Ethan, who names him Bailey.

The two are inseparable, even as Ethan grows up and ﬁnds love. Bailey lives a long life and, LISA sadly, must BROWN inevitably let go of his happy Columnist existence. He is reborn as Ellie, a female German shepherd. Bailey’s new life is one of hard work, as he is a police dog partnered with the taciturn Carlos. Ellie’s days are spent chasing criminals, making drug busts and tracking kidnapping victims, and her nights are spent trying to break through to the lonely Carlos. After Ellie makes an early exit, Bailey reincarnates as Tino, an adorable Pembroke Welsh corgi. He is the faithful companion of lovelorn college student Maia, joining her on her journey as she falls in love, gets married and starts a family of her own. Bailey lives a good life as Tino but eventually must move on. He takes the form of a St. Ber-

Reactions to court’s ruling on cigarette tax mixed Increase shot down by justices BY KIMBERLY BARKER kbarker@joplinglobe.com

OKLAHOMA CITY — The decision by the Oklahoma Supreme Court on Thursday to shoot down a new cigarette tax drew mixed reactions Friday from lawmakers and others who are concerned about the lost revenue needed to operate state government. Senate Bill 845 proposed to raise the cigarette tax by $1.50 per pack. The court ruled that lawmakers adopted the fee in violation of constitutional rules that dictate how and when revenue-raising measures can be approved. “They rolled it out with two or three days left in the session, and they were saying that this is a ‘fee,’ but we have to have it because we don’t have enough money to do what we need to do,” said

Ben Loring, a Democratic member of the Oklahoma House of Representatives from Miami. “We have this huge shortfall, so we have to have it, but it’s not to raise money. The whole intent was to raise money.” A supporter of the measure, Republican Gov. Mary Fallin said she was disappointed with the ruling. “I am disappointed to hear the Supreme Court struck down the smoking cessation fee, but I certainly respect the justices’ authority,” Fallin said in a written statement. “I will be discussing with legislative leaders from both parties the need to address the $215 million shortfall this will create for the Department of Human Services, the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services and the Oklahoma Health Care Authority, the three agencies that received the bulk of the money that was to be generated by the cessation fee.” Loring said he hopes to go back into special session

shortly and realistically look at real revenue-raising measures. “Most speciﬁcally, the ones that we were proposing all year long was to roll back the gross production tax to what it was, roll back the income tax breaks to what it was, back in the days when the state actually had money,” Loring said. Without money-raising measures, cuts would go across the board, with education being the most affected, Loring said. “Here are the options,” Loring said. “We go back into special session, and we come up with some real avenues to raise signiﬁcant amounts of money in a constitutional fashion, or all of the state agencies get cut on a proportionate basis by an additional quarter of a billion dollars.” The state has until Aug. 17 to request a rehearing.

PUBLIC OPINION Barbara Epperson, an Oklahoma resident and former state employee, be-

lieves the cigarette tax was unnecessary and was not an ideal way to address the budget shortfall. “There was no reason why we should be in this situation, so why should it happen?” Epperson asked. “I don’t smoke, but if I did, I would be even madder. I’m not paying for the Legislature’s shortfalls. I used to work for the state, and the budget had already affected us before I had quit. We couldn’t do anything because of the cuts. This is why it makes me so mad because every year, the budget gets worse.” Clarissa Sumpter, a substance-abuse and prevention specialist, said she thought the tax would help discourage smoking but doesn’t agree that it would be a realistic way to help ﬁx the budget. She works with ROCMND, which stands for Rogers, Ottawa, Craig, Mayes, Nowata and Delaware counties, an area youth-service treatment center that focuses on sub-

stance abuse and prevention. “This is my own personal opinion, not ROCMND’s, but I think anytime you talk about raising a tax on a potentially harmful substance, it’s always a good idea because if it’s a higher price, it would deter people from using it in the ﬁrst place,” Sumpter said. “It may even prevent new users. “They’re not going to be able to just come up with one thing that’s going to ﬁx our budget,” she added. “They’re going to have to come up with a lot of different things.”

nue to operate state government. The court’s 31-page decision, written by Justice Patrick Wyrick, said the move violated guidelines in the Oklahoma Constitution that bar lawmakers from approving revenue-raising bills in the ﬁnal ﬁve days of a legislative session and without a 75 percent majority vote. Wyrick said the $1.50 fee was “the linchpin” of the legislation, not health concerns. “The measure was motivated by the Legislature’s need to raise revenue so that it could satisfy its conCOURT DECISION stitutional obligation to enact a balanced budget,” The decision rejects the wrote Wyrick, the newest state’s claim that the fee — which was expected to raise justice on the nine-member court. more than $250 million a Seven justices concurred, year — was designed to protect the public by helping to while two — Justices Joreduce smoking rates and to seph Watt and Tom Colbert compensate the state for the — concurred in part and dissented in part. harm done by smoking.

A grand

opportunity Jordan Spieth has one chance to become the youngest golfer in history to complete the career grand slam GRAND SLAM GOLFERS Only five golfers have won all four major championships during their careers. A look at the golfers and their ages when they accomplished the feat:

WITH VICTORY AT PGA CHAMPIONSHIP: Jordan Spieth 24 years 0 months 17 days Ben Hogan 40 years 10 months 27 days

Gene Sarazen 33 years 1 month 12 days

Gary Player 29 years 7 months 20 days

Jack Nicklaus 26 years 5 months 18 days

Tiger Woods 24 years 6 months 23 days

hree majors down, one more to go for Jordan Spieth. If only it were that easy. Not since Tiger Woods in 2000 has a player won the third leg of the career Grand Slam, and then went straight to the next major with a chance to be part of the most elite company in golf history. Only five men have captured all four majors in their careers. Spieth, coming off his spectacular closing stretch to win the British Open, lacks only the PGA Championship to join them. Still fresh are the images of Spieth going birdie-eagle-birdie-birdie at Royal Birkdale for his third Aug. 10-13 victory of the year. That's Quail Hollow Club one reason he is a Charlotte, NC co-favorite with Rory McIlroy to win the 99th edition of the PGA Championship, which starts Aug. 10 at Quail Hollow Club in North Carolina. A broader view of history suggests the Texan would be wise to get it done quickly. Arnold Palmer won the 1961 British Open — also at Royal Birkdale — and played the PGA Championship 34 more times without ever getting his name on that Wanamaker Trophy. Tom Watson went through the same ordeal. He picked up the third leg at Pebble Beach in the 1982 U.S. Open, and then played 24 more times in the PGA Championship without ever winning the one major that eluded him. Also at stake for the 24-year-old Spieth is a chance to become the youngest to win the career Grand Slam. "It's incredible," he said. "It's a life goal of mine. It's a career goal. Growing up playing golf, I just wanted to be able to play in major championships and compete with the best in the world. And things have happened very quickly." The question is whether he can finish it off quickly, or whether McIlroy, Dustin Johnson or anyone else can stop him. Johnson still has a firm grasp on No. 1 in the world, though he sure hasn't looked like it since that spill down the stairs on the eve of the Masters and the resulting back injury. McIlroy had a rib injury at the start of the year and is still looking for his first victory. Spieth, meanwhile, has a sense of occasion. Even when he took a four-shot lead into the final round of the Masters that he won in 2015, he knew it was critical to not let opportunity slip away. "The longer you go without is making each one harder," he said, referring to winning that first major. And now he is going for No. 4.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jordan Spieth is going for a career Grand Slam at the PGA Championship and doesn’t appear to have a care in the world. Rory McIlroy hasn’t won a major in three years and expectations are higher than ever. Blame that on Quail Hollow. This is where McIlroy won his first PGA Tour event in 2010 when he fearlessly fired a 4-iron into the breeze and over the water to 6 feet for an eagle that allowed him to make the cut on the number, and then he followed with a 66-62 weekend. Quail Hollow is where he shot 61 in the third round to run away from a strong field for a seven-shot victory. He has played here seven times and has finished out of the top 10 just once. It’s not Tiger Woods at Torrey Pines. But there’s a reason McIlroy has been looking forward to this PGA Championship. And it’s a big reason why he is the betting favorite by a slight margin over Spieth, who is just three weeks removed from winning the British Open. The odds on McIlroy winning at Royal Birkdale were 20-1, some of the highest ever associated with him. He joked then that it was a good time to back him. Now he’s listed at 7-1, and he doesn’t feel much differently. “I told you those odds wouldn’t last long,” he said Tuesday. “I think it’s partly to do with the upturn in form that I’ve had over the last few weeks. And then my history on this golf course — a couple of wins, beaten in a playoff, a few other top 10s. “Things are a bit different than they were a couple of weeks ago.” McIlroy has posted seven straight rounds in the 60s

going into the ﬁnal major of the year, though he has not been in serious contention in either the British Open or the Bridgestone Invitational. A bad start held him back at Royal Birkdale — 5 over through the opening six holes — and he was slowed by not hitting his wedges close enough or making enough putts at Firestone. His long game has been solid as ever, and that ﬁgures to be an advantage on a course already softened by rain on Tuesday and with storms in the forecast for the rest of the week. McIlroy, like Spieth, also has three legs of the career Grand Slam. He is lacking only the Masters, and he hasn’t come particularly close in the three years he has gone to Augusta National with a chance to complete it. But there are differences. McIlroy won the British Open at Hoylake in 2014 and then had to wait nearly nine month for the Masters. That was plenty of time to think about it, to answer to it. “It plays on your mind a little bit,” he said. “I think that’s where Jordan doesn’t have to deal with that coming into this week. It’s great to be able to ride on the crest of a wave and just sort of keep it going.” Spieth said that if every player was polled, all would agree that McIlroy will win a green jacket. He considered McIlroy’s age (28) and how many more opportunities he had in front of him. However, Spieth also spoke last month about how im-

portant it was to capture his first major at the Masters in 2015 when he was 21. He got it out of the way without allowing pressure to build as it did for Phil Mickelson, who won his first major at 34, or Sergio Garcia, who won the Masters this year at 37. So why is this different? After all, Tom Watson was 32 and Arnold Palmer was 31 when they first went to the PGA Championship with a chance to get the career slam. “Yeah, but it’s totally different,” Spieth said. “Because winning a major versus winning a career Grand Slam ... if you don’t win a major versus you don’t win a career Grand Slam, it’s two different things in my mind.” McIlroy, meanwhile, isn’t the only player trying to make sure the year doesn’t end without him winning a major. Dustin Johnson looked good enough to win them all until he slipped down the stairs and wrenched his back on the eve of the Masters. Johnson believes his game is close to where it was before the injury. What separates him from McIlroy is Quail Hollow. Johnson, who will stay at No. 1 regardless of what happens this week, has played Quail Hollow only three times, and not since 2011. He missed the cut twice and tied for 29th. McIlroy almost feels like he can roll out of bed and play well at Quail Hollow.
