Infant found in trash at apartment complex By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

An infant who was abandoned in a trash receptacle and seriously injured has police investigating and neighbors in a Lawrence apartment complex worried. Around 2:28 a.m.

9-month-old suffered life-threatening injuries Thursday, police received a report that an infant was left in a trash receptacle at an apartment complex in the 2500 block of West Sixth Street. The baby,

a 9-month-old girl, suffered life-threatening injuries and was transported to a Kansas City-area hospital in serious but stable condition, Lawrence Police

Sgt. Amy Rhoads said. The apartments within the complex are owned and managed by Country Club on 6th, said Rob Presbrey, regional property manager for Apartment Management Consultants LLC.

KDOT opts for right-in, right-out at K-10 intersection By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling

After months of debate, Kansas Department of Transportation officials announced that they have decided on a right-in, right-out configuration

where Kansas Highway 10 meets Kasold Drive. KDOT said in a news release the option was “low cost” and a compromise between safety concerns at the intersection and nearby residents’ calls to maintain access

Around 1:30 a.m. Thursday, Jimi Burgner, who lives in a different building within the complex, said he was outside and saw an apparently intoxicated man drive up and park his Jeep outside his apartment. Burgner said he recognized the man as someone who lived in a building nearby and who has a small daughter with the woman he lives with. “He was obviously on a lot of something,” he said. “And he tried to get into two different apartments.” “Our friend knows him and we helped him get to our friend’s place, but she had issues with him in the past and she told him to go,” Burgner added. Eventually, Burgner

“

I can’t let my kids go outside to play. There are all kinds of things going through your head, and with no answers we don’t know what’s going on.” — Sara Dooley, resident of the apartment complex where the infant was found called police to get the man to leave. Later Thursday morning, Burgner said, he woke up and saw police tape around the man’s vehicle, which was still parked outside his apartment. Another apartment was blocked off by police tape Thursday afternoon, with officers standing guard outside. Lawrence police representatives would not say whether the incident described by Burgner and the taped-off apartment were connected. It was not immediately clear where the baby

girl was found, though multiple residents said the apartments all share a centralized dumpster, which also compacts trash. Katie Moore and Adriana Rivera live two doors down from the taped-off apartment and said that they hear arguing from time to time. “Mostly what sounds to be domestic arguments,” Moore said. The two, who have lived in the complex for more than three years, aren’t familiar with their neighbors, they noted. “We’ve been wanting to move out,” Moore said.

KDOT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

KDOT will add pavement markings at the intersection, and tubular markers will be placed between K-10’s eastbound and westbound lanes indicating vehicles shouldn’t cross the highway’s centerline. The additions will come at a cost of less than $70,000, KDOT estimated. The markers will be flexible, so they don’t damage vehicles striking them and could be plowed over by emergency vehicles needing to cross K-10’s centerline at the intersection, project leaders have said. KDOT also announced plans to install permanent traffic signals at the intersection of U.S. 59 and County Road 458. Those will be added next summer or fall at a cost of approximately $170,000. When KDOT this winter announced plans to close the Kasold intersection — sparking the debate with area residents and local officials

MOTORISTS ALONG EAST 1200 ROAD APPROACH A STOP SIGN at the intersection that connects East 1200 Road and the South Lawrence Trafficway just south of the Kasold curve on March 29, 2016. The Kansas Department of Transportation has decided to redesign the intersection with a right-in, right-out configuration. — residents south of K-10 and west of U.S. 59 said the closure would force them to turn left from their neighborhood onto U.S. 59. They cited safety concerns about crossing the four-lane highway. The traffic signal will “allow for a protected left-turn for access onto northbound U.S. 59,” the release states. KDOT made the final decision earlier this week, the release states,

after reviewing input from Lawrence and Douglas County commissioners at a June 21 meeting. At the June 21 meeting, two of the three county commissioners and all five city commissioners voiced support for the alternative option of adding a traffic light at the intersection. The intersection is in the district of Douglas County Commission Chairman Jim Flory, who

“We don’t really try to get to know our neighbors.” Wednesday night and into Thursday morning, Rivera said, she heard yelling between a man and a woman coming from the nearby apartment. “Just yelling and saying bad words,” she said. “I think the man wanted to go.” With the storm early Thursday, Moore said she didn’t hear anything. And when the two woke up this morning to find the apartment taped off, they didn’t think much of the incident. Sara Dooley, another nearby resident, has heard only rumors regarding the infant, but she has been afraid for the safety of her children within the complex for quite some time, and the fact that she hasn’t heard more information about the incident makes things worse, she said. said at the time the option for a traffic signal had the most support among his constituents. Douglas County Commissioner Nancy Thellman supported the rightin, right-out plan favored by KDOT. Second to closing the intersection altogether, the right-in, right-out option was the safest, engineers with the project said at the time. With the opening of the east leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway in November, KDOT estimates a 78 percent increase in crashes if the K-10/Kasold intersection were left unchanged. The change to right-in, right-out is expected to produce 10 percent fewer crashes. The four-lane SLT will transition to the two-lane K-10 just east of the intersection. KDOT anticipates widening the rest of K-10 to four lanes sometime in the future, but funding for the plan hasn’t yet been allocated. — City Hall reporter Nikki Wentling can be reached at 832-7144 or nwentling@ljworld.com.

Topeka (ap) — Kansas officials say a voluntary mentoring program for welfare recipients has attracted few participants and mentors. The program has had 13 participants since it started six months ago, and 115 people have volunteered to be mentors, The Wichita Eagle reported. The goal is to have 1,100 mentors. The program is known as HOPE, which stands for Hope, Opportunity and Prosperity for Everyone. Gov. Sam Brownback announced the program in January as part of a push to lift low-income families out of poverty. Brownback recently questioned at a meeting of the Social Services Program Council whether the program was approaching participants early enough. Susan Mosier, the

secretary of the state Department of Health and Environment, suggested creating incentives for welfare recipients to participate. “I don’t think we’ve communicated and packaged it in a way that’s captured people’s attention,” Mosier said during the meeting. The program plans to expand its one-on-one mentoring to youth graduating from the foster care system in the next few weeks. The project is being funded by a federal grant and is projected to cost about $350,000 a year. It is modeled on a similar program with the state Department of Corrections. According to Brownback, the Department of Corrections program has fewer volunteer mentors, but more people who want a mentor.

Judge: Reason for Tiller’s killing relevant Wichita (ap) — A Kansas judge says the reason that abortion provider George Tiller was killed is not a legal defense for murder, but could be relevant for jurors in deciding how long Scott Roeder must stay in prison. Sedgwick County District Judge Warren Wilbert said Thursday that Roeder’s state of mind Roeder during the May 31, 2009, killing could matter to a jury that will decide whether to resentence him

to a minimum of 50 or 25 years before being eligible for parole. Roeder was convicted of first-degree murder and has testified he killed Tiller to stop him from performing abortions. Roeder’s life sentence with no chance of parole for 50 years was among many vacated after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2013 that juries, not judges, must decide whether to increase punishment.

Senator: School leaders want to oust incumbents

Wichita (ap) — School district superintendents across the state are waging a coordinated effort to defeat incumbent Republican conservative lawmakers in this year’s elections, according to state Sen. Forrest Knox, R-Altoona, who said he is among those being targeted. Knox made that allegation in an email to supporters last week and in an interview Tuesday with The Wichita Eagle. “It’s quite clear — and it’s across the state — the school districts are working strongly,” Knox told the newspaper. “The Knox superintendents are actively campaigning against me and that’s fine, but people need to know that and they need to pay attention.” Knox represents District 14 in southern Kansas, which covers much of Butler County as well as Coffey, Cowley, Chautauqua, Greenwood, Wilson and Woodson counties. He said he has seen signs for his opponents in many homes that belong to school district employees or

others with connections to the schools. Bruce Givens, an educator since 1978 who is challenging Knox in the GOP primary, said it’s likely educators are campaigning against Knox but he has no part in that effort. “I suppose he should be concerned, because he has not supported public education at all,” Givens said. Knox suggested some superintendents are intimidating teachers into supporting his opponents in the 26 school districts in his district, but he didn’t specify where he thought that was happening. Cory Gibson, the president of the Kansas School Superintendents Association, said his organization never endorses anyone in legislative races and he knows of no superintendent who is telling school staff to support a specific candidate. All public employees, including superintendents, are free to support a candidate in their free time but Gibson said most superintendents

avoid doing that because they will have to work with the election winner. The winner of the Republican primary will meet either Democrats Carl Shay Jr. or Mark Pringle in the general election. Shay, vice president of the Fredonia school board, called Knox’s email hypocritical. “He obviously doesn’t want public employees to have a voice in their government. And oddly enough he also gets paid by the people and he wants his voice heard, so I think that’s kind of a double standard on his part,” Shay said. Pringle, who owns a farm near Yates Center, said education also will be a major issue for many voters who don’t work for school districts. “The folks that are getting out there and rising up against this stuff, they have kids, they have grandkids, they have kids in their community that are being affected,” Pringle said. “They have every reason in the world to be active in this campaign whether they’re putting up signs or talking to their neighbors.”

Sedgwick County passes illegal immigration resolution Wichita (ap) — Sedgwick County commissioners on Wednesday approved a resolution asking the Kansas Legislature to stop people living in the U.S. illegally from receiving in-state tuition or from receiving nutritious food through a federal program. The nonbinding resolution passed 3-2 Wednesday after almost two hours of sometimes heated debate, with most speakers opposing the move, The Wichita Eagle reported. Karl Peterjohn, Richard Ranzau and commission Chairman Jim Howell voted for the resolution while Dave Unruh and Tim Norton voted against it. “This is not local, this

is arbitrary; it’s unnecessary, and it just looks like it’s mean-spirited,” speaker Roger Hughey told the commissioners. Ranzau argued the resolution was about respect for the country. “This has nothing to do with race, has nothing to do with being unkind or uncompassionate,” Ranzau said. “It is about the law.” Commissioners who supported the resolution said they want a clear directive from state lawmakers about how to deal with issues involving those in the country illegally. State law allows the immigrants to receive in-state tuition if they attend a Kansas high school for three years

and graduate. And federal law allows the state to determine who is eligible for the Women, Infants and Children program. A group called Kansas Stronger Together issued a news release Tuesday asking commissioners to reject the resolution. The coalition said preventing those who are here illegally from receiving in-state tuition would deprive Kansas of skilled, taxpaying workers. “In today’s economy, we need a work force with skilled workers, and a college degree is a precursor to working, paying taxes and contributing to our state,” the group wrote in a letter to Howell.

Deputies arrest 4 on suspicion of robbery By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

One man was robbed of his phone and cash Wednesday night inside a church just west of Lawrence, said Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Kristen Dymacek. Before 10 p.m., an 18-year-old man called the sheriff’s office and said he was robbed inside the First United Methodist Church, 867 U.S. Highway 40, while at a basketball scrimmage, Dymacek said. Inside the church, four people approached the man and demanded his phone and wallet,

Dymacek said. The man knew at least one of the four people involved and felt threatened. No weapons were displayed during the incident, she said. The man handed the four people his phone and $20 in cash, Dymacek said. The four people — Kenneth Robinson, 18, of Lawrence, Anthony Kerley, 20, of Topeka, Thomasina Renae Soto Meraz, 19, of Wichita and one 16-year-old juvenile — were found by deputies at the church and arrested on suspicion of robbery, Dymacek said.

Robinson, Kerley and Meraz were all booked into the Douglas County Jail and held without bond, according to booking logs. The juvenile was booked into the Juvenile Detention Center, Dymacek said. As of Thursday morning, no charges had been filed against any of the four people in Douglas County District Court. Further information was not immediately available.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

More money was allocated to some areas the City Commission has set as goals, including $300,000 for affordable housing, $$750,000 for bicycle and pedestrian transportation improvements and $256,449 toward the creation of a “mental health squad.” “We wanted to focus on the commission’s goals, maintain a level tax rate and present a structurally balanced budget,” Markus said. Residents would see an increase in their utilities bills under the recommended budget. According to city-provided data, monthly bills for the typical household would go up $5.02, for an annual increase of 4.8 percent. The recommended budget will be presented to the City Commission at a work session at 3 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St. Commissioners can alter the budget over the next month, before passing one in August.

‘Pretty significant cuts’ From the start of the budget process this spring, Markus has said there would need to be “belt-tightening” to prevent another year in which Lawrence spends more than it makes. In the recommended budget, the city’s revenue would match expenditures “dollar to dollar,” he said. To balance the 2017 budget, Markus trimmed $1.5 million from the general fund, the main fund for city services. “We had to make some pretty significant cuts,” he said. Markus already met with staff members whose positions would be eliminated under his budget. Those are: the director of arts and culture, the city auditor, the assistant director of finance and the small business facilitator. The positions being cut that currently are not filled are: communications specialist, project engineer, part-time waste reduction/recycling specialist, Parks and Recreation director and one administrative support position for LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical. Assistant City Manager Diane Stoddard explained the current interim Parks and Recreation director, formerly one of two assistant directors, would remain in the director position. The city had budgeted to fill the director spot, but now the position will be eliminated and the department will “continue on how we have for the last several years,” Stoddard said. In a summary of the budget, Markus wrote that presenting a balanced budget “has not been easy.” “I recognize that there remains a number of unmet needs and items that the community wishes it could afford,” he wrote. “We simply need to make these adjustments in order to place the city on a solid financial footing in the future.”

“

We simply need to make these adjustments in order to place the city on a solid financial footing in the future.” — City Manager Tom Markus

Cost-cutting measures In order to reduce costs, the city would leave certain funding requests unmet, and would only partially fund other requests: l About 40 requests from city departments, totaling $5.4 million, would go unmet, ranging

from security measures to comply with a new concealed carry law, to new vehicles, to an increase in the city’s stock of deicing salt. l Nearly $14.9 million in requested capital improvement projects wouldn’t be funded. l Requests from social service agencies wouldn’t be fully met, with about $1.6 million requested and $1.2 million recommended. l The city manager’s office determined the Lawrence Arts Center would receive only $55,000 of a $156,343 request to improve its facilities. In June, when receiving requests from outside groups, Vice Mayor Leslie Soden asked whether the city’s lease agreement with the Lawrence Arts Center called for cityfunded facilities improvements. At the time, the city was recommending funding $100,000 worth of facilities upgrades, the same amount the city allocated in its 2016 budget. After review, the city manager’s office found the agreement specifies Lawrence is responsible for major maintenance to the Arts Center but not interior upkeep. The Arts Center’s request asked for funding for a new security system, wireless internet connection, carpet and toilet seats. “Most of those items they included in the maintenance request were items that would be their responsibility under the lease agreement,” Stoddard said. Markus said he didn’t want to eliminate the funding altogether in 2017, but that no funding toward those types of facility improvements would be awarded to the Arts Center in 2018. Another request from the Arts Center, for scholarships, would be filled to the extent it was in 2016, with $30,000. It had requested $60,000 for scholarships in 2017. “We do provide a lot of funding for the Arts Center in a variety of ways, including the scholarship program,” Stoddard said. “The funding put into the Arts Center has been sizable.”

“

She noted the city also pays utility bills for the Arts Center and contributes about $200,000 annually for the building’s debt payments, which end in 2020. l Johnson County would get less than half of what it requested from Lawrence to continue operating the K-10 Connector, which runs along Kansas Highway 10 taking riders between Kansas University, Johnson County Community College and KU’s Edwards Campus. Markus is recommending paying $120,000 for the service, the same as in 2016 but less than the $327,800 requested this year. Johnson County officials have said if Lawrence didn’t pay the requested amount, it “would likely need to revisit and reassess its support of the route.” “It is unknown at this point what the potential impact keeping this contribution level may create,” the budget summary states. l The Lawrence Public Library would receive only $13,000 of the $300,000 increase it requested in 2017, most of which was to be used

The tax lid “emphasizes our need to grow our tax base,” he said. “We need to look at our sales tax operations and our pull factor, and take a hard look to step up our efforts on economic development.” Funding toward economic development initiatives would remain level under Markus’ 2017 budget. He’s proposing the city’s contract with the Lawrence chamber of commerce be paid, as well as some of the requests from Peaslee Technical Training Center, the Bioscience and Technology Business Center and Downtown Lawrence Inc. One request from the BTBC, for $75,000 to provide incentives to draw early-stage bioscience and tech companies into the area, is recommended to get only $25,000 under the proposed budget.

Some new additions Although some positions and services are being cut, others would be added under the budget. Some of the additions are: l A mental health squad, made up of one new police officer, one reassigned police officer, a new sergeant and a clinical case manager.

Besides money for the case manager, the city plans to award about $144,000 to Bert Nash for case managers to assist the homeless (about $10,000 less than requested for 2017) and nearly $322,000 for the Bert Nash WRAP program, which provides mental health services in local schools. l Other new employee positions, comprising: five new employees for the utilities department, four of which are for the Wakarusa Wastewater Treatment Plant; a twoperson culvert-inspection crew; a senior building inspector funded through fees; and a planner and community development

folder from the prestigious culinary school tucked away in a swag bag after returning to their Louisville hotel. Frieling had won seventh place in the national SkillsUSA competition last year, but never “anything like this before,” he now recalls of the moment. “That,” he says, “is what I’m going to do next.” For now, the young chef is trying to stay humble. Most in his position would set their sights on opening a restaurant, Frieling included, but he knows himself well enough to realize it’ll be a while before he’s “at that point.”

Ceramicist Carly Slade and printmaker Tressa Jones are the Lawrence Arts Center’s 2016-2017 artists-in-residence, the Arts Center announced Tuesday. The pair will begin developing new bodies of work, collaborating in Arts Center studios, taking part in community-driven projects and teaching as part of their yearlong residencies at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St., after arriving in Lawrence in mid-August. This year’s artists were chosen from a recordbreaking 61 applicants, says Kyla Strid, director of residencies and adult education at the Arts Center. That’s up from recent years, when the average was usually around 40 applicants, Strid notes. “I thought their Slade work was a little different from what we’d seen in previous years here,” says Strid. She hopes both Slade and Jones will “help drive the conversations we have about art in this building Jones and beyond the walls of this building.” Slade, the Arts Center’s artist-in-residence in ceramics, is a Canadian by birth who grew up under the “big sky” of Alberta and spent her working life in trades, from carpentry to concrete. Slade’s work is heavily influenced by her blue-collar upbringing and uses a mixture of materials such as embroidery and industrial building supplies. She received a bachelor’s degree in ceramics from the Alberta College of Art and Design before earning a master’s degree in spatial arts from San Jose State University. Slade arrives at the Lawrence Arts Center on the heels of a summer residency at the prestigious Archie Bray Foundation

Out & About

ach Frieling was sweating, his body wracked with nerves as the results began to roll in at last month’s SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference in Louisville, Ky. He remembers the “shock” that came with the news that he’d won first place in the conference’s culinary arts competition, and also the pride in his supporters’ faces — his family, including a teary-eyed Mom, was in attendance, as were his instructors and coach. “It was the best moment of my life, probably,” recalls Frieling, who works as line manager at downtown Lawrence’s popular Limestone Pizza. “I’m just glad I could make them all happy.” Frieling, 21, represented the state of Kansas and took home the gold medal at the competition, which pitted young chefs from across the nation against each other in a “Chopped”-esque contest designed to test organization, knife skills, cooking techniques, creative presentation, food safety, quality and flavor. A spring 2016 graduate of Flint Hills Technical College, Frieling was asked by his alma mater to participate in the preliminary state competition held in Kansas City earlier this year while still a student. At the national cook-off in Louisville, he competed with college students for the top prize, which gave each aspiring chef a mystery basket with which to craft a four-course menu the night before the competition. Frieling’s chopped romaine salad with apple slaw and bacon-almond brittle, pureed green lentil soup, mushroomstuffed chicken ballotine and braised foreshank ultimately earned him the top prize. He thinks the soup probably helped push him over the top — “I was the only one that did a pureed soup,” Frieling says. “We couldn’t use electronic equipment at all, so I had to puree it the old-fashioned way of putting it through a strainer and mashing it through.” Aside from the shiny gold medal, Frieling’s prize package also includes a full-tuition scholarship to the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y. His mother, “crying again,” discovered a

Arts Center names artists-in-residence “

Frieling, who is quick to point out that he’s still “only 21,” credits longtime supporters like Limestone co-owner and executive chef Rick Martin for his success. Frieling’s enjoyed learning from industry professionals and hopes to continue. “I’ve had a lot of great mentors, especially Chef Rick,” he says. “I’ve known him for almost six years now, and that guy has given me so much. I’m so happy to show him that it wasn’t for nothing.” — This is an excerpt from Joanna Hlavacek’s Out & About column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

Basketball isn’t worth cheating on husband Dear Annie: I love basketball, but my husband has no interest in it. Our two boys, ages 6 and 8, play at school sometimes but have not yet discovered what a great game it is. We live in a big city with an NBA team, and my one luxury in life, which is an annual gift from my husband, is my season tickets to our team’s home games. Season ticket holders are assigned the same seat for every home game. The man sitting next to me this past season is friendly and intelligent, and best of all, he loves basketball. Over the first few weeks of the season, we struck up a friendship. At first, it was just about basketball, chatting at halftime, cheering when we won, that sort of thing. Then we started meeting before and after the games,

‘Matchmaker’ returns, still a freak show “Million Dollar Matchmaker” (9 p.m., WE) debuts. Patti Stanger’s series has a new name on a new network, but it’s the same old charade. For the record, Stanger’s Bravo series was “Millionaire Matchmaker.” On WE, she moves her operation to the penthouse floor of a desert resort located north of San Diego. There’s a touch of product placement about this relocation, but it allows Stanger to keep an eye on her “Million Dollar” clients as well as their arranged dates. Everyone’s under surveillance. Stanger has the whole place bugged. It’s about as romantic as being set up on a blind date by the KGB. But who are we kidding? This is more about the freak show than romance. Stanger has a brusque, “tough love” approach, perhaps more suited to an athletic coach than a relationship counselor. Her first two projects are an oft-married, designer-clad Colombian beauty and a 30ish man who has endured, or perhaps enjoyed, hundreds of plastic surgeries. With all the subtlety of a blowtorch, Stanger gets right to the woman’s apparent problem. She has jumped into bad relationships with a “cliff diver’s” disregard for consequences. Seconds later she surmises that her project wants to “fix” the wrong men in her life because she has been damaged in some way. Less than one commercial break later, tears flow when the woman realizes that, yes, she was abused as a 3-year-old girl. Insights abound. Lights, camera, closure. The plastic surgery addict is a tougher nut to crack. For starters, he’s a walking collection of silicon wads. Stanger calls him “The Ken Doll.” And Ken has had himself sculpted for promotional purposes. He’s in the cosmetic surgery field and sees his very existence as a walking billboard. This puts a damper on potential intimacy because he only wants to discuss his own image and his history of shape-shifting. Patti insists that, somewhere deep inside, a “sweet boy” lurks within. Can she help Ken learn to love himself? Like I said, nobody — from the host to the lovelorn — seems to take this seriously for a second. “Million Dollar Matchmaker” has a new address, but it’s still located deep within the circus sideshow.

Of course, his guest denied taking them, and my uncle had no proof. But about a year later, some of them showed up for sale on eBay. My uncle wanted to prosecute but then said

Races are on Important local elections are coming up, and voters need to get educated about the candidates and what they stand for.

nyone who watches, reads or listens to news reports is being bombarded by stories about the U.S. presidential race. While that race certainly is important, Douglas County voters also have a number of important choices to make in local election races. The Aug. 2 primary is fast approaching and will narrow the races for the Douglas County Commission and the Kansas Legislature. The Republican Party sponsored a forum for its candidates this week and the local Voter Education Coalition has scheduled a forum for Sunday for both Democrats and Republicans who have primary opponents. The forum will start at 3 p.m. in the Lawrence City Commission chambers at City Hall. The first 90 minutes of the forum will be devoted to state legislative races. Confirmed participants in the forum will include the two Democratic candidates in the 44th House District, incumbent Barbara Ballard and challenger Stephen X. Davis, and two Republican candidates in the 45 District, incumbent Rep. Tom Sloan and challenger Jeremy Ryan Pierce. The two Republican candidates in the 42nd District, incumbent Connie O’Brien and challenger Jim Karleskint, also have been invited to participate. Following the legislative candidates will be the four candidates seeking to replace Jim Flory on the Douglas County Commission. Running for the commission’s 3rd District seat are Democrats Jim Weaver and Bassem Chahine and Republicans Michelle Derusseau and Jim Denney. The public is welcome and will be allowed to submit questions during Sunday’s forum. The event won’t be televised live but will be available on demand to customers of the local WOW cable system. The League of Women Voters of Lawrence-Douglas County also is planning a public “meet the candidates” event from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Thursday at Centennial Park. Many important issues will be decided by the county and state officials we will elect this year, and it’s vital that local voters get to know their candidates so they can cast informed votes both in the Aug. 2 primary and the Nov. 8 general election.

Attacks may unify fight against IS Washington — In the global revulsion at the past week’s terror attacks in four Muslim countries, the United States and its allies have a new opportunity to build a unified command against the Islamic State and other extremists. But as the U.S. seeks to broaden this counterterrorism alliance, it should be careful about partnering with Russia — unless Moscow distances itself from a Syrian regime that many Sunni Muslims despise. The savage attacks in Turkey, Bangladesh, Iraq and Saudi Arabia should convince Muslim nations and the West that they share a common enemy in extremist groups such as the Islamic State. What they need now is a shared command-andcontrol structure, like what the U.S. and Britain forged in December 1941, after the shock of Pearl Harbor. Merging military and intelligence resources wasn’t easy, even for longstanding partners in Washington and London. But Prime Minister Winston Churchill knew that once America had fully joined the battle, the allies’ eventual victory was certain. Similar confidence would be inspired by a command structure that truly fuses the resources of the U.S., Europe, Turkey, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Pakistan and the many other nations that have been targeted by Islamic State terrorists. A sign of how unpopular these attacks are with Muslims is that the Islamic State isn’t taking credit for the at-

The savage attacks in Turkey, Bangladesh, Iraq and Saudi Arabia should convince Muslim nations and the West that they share a common enemy in extremist groups such as the Islamic State.” tacks in Turkey and Saudi Arabia — even though it’s widely seen as the likely perpetrator — and that other Islamist groups are condemning the violence, especially the bombing in the holy city of Medina. On Tuesday the SITE Intelligence Group gathered some of the online ripostes from rivals of the Islamic State. An Australian cleric named Abu Sulayman, who is a member of al-Qaida affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra, tweeted: “The #MedinaBlast is a criminal act that Muslims must condemn.” Another pro-al-Qaida account tweeted: “If ISIS is not behind the attacks in Istanbul and Medina they should deny their involvement.” Saudi Arabia had a similar wake-up call several years

after Sept. 11, 2001, when the kingdom’s leaders realized that al-Qaida terrorists were targeting the House of Saud, too. That led to joint operations by the kingdom’s counterterrorism service and the CIA. Monday’s attacks in Medina, Jeddah and Qatif should deepen that cooperation — and draw in other Arab partners, such as Jordan, Egypt, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates. The U.S. has a chance to hit the “restart” button with Turkey, too. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been straddling the issue — condemning the Islamic State but failing to close his border with Syria because of pique over U.S. support for Syrian Kurdish fighters. Now that Erdogan can see the jihadist dagger at his throat, he should want closer military and intelligence links with Washington. He should also think about reopening negotiations with the Kurdish Workers Party, or PKK, so that he’s not fighting a two-front war against terror. What about Russia? Should Moscow and Washington join forces against terrorism? On one level the answer is obviously yes. Foreign fighters have been streaming from Russia and its former republics to join the Islamic State. Two of the three attackers in Istanbul appear to have been Russians. Real cooperation would be useful, so long as it doesn’t condone and reinforce Russian bad behavior. Syria is the test case: The Russians have been asking the U.S. for months to share

To the editor: The July 2 Saturday Column says that “telling the truth” is essential in a candidate — and then attacks Hillary Clinton as a liar, without mentioning that Donald Trump has been caught over and over, by the most reputable sources, in misstatements, inventions and outright lies. I’m not writing to defend Secretary Clinton, but to blame Mr. Simons for his blatantly one-sided critique of Clinton’s record. If truth is essential in a president, as he says, why did he not mention that Donald Trump has compiled a record (according to NBC, PolitiFact, FactCheck.org, the Guardian, and others) of saying what is not true much more often than any other presidential candidate, Democratic or Republican, in the course of this campaign? When Politico, for example, counted how many lies Trump told in a total 4.6 hours of speeches, they came up with an average of one lie every 5 minutes. Not only that, but Trump uses the technique of the lie that is repeated so often that many people ultimately think it must be true. That was, for example, what he did in repeatedly asserting that he saw a video of thousands of Muslims in New Jersey cheering as the towers came down on 9/11. Fact: There is no such video, but he continued to say many times that he had nevertheless seen it. If a writer (Mr. Simons) deliberately leaves out facts that would compromise his statements, he is legitimately labeled “biased” and “misleading.” That Saturday Column is deliberately deceptive, and the J-W should — but won’t — be ashamed of it. Haskell Springer, Lawrence

To the editor: There is a sharp political distinction between the majority of Christians in America. I believe the current major Republican/ Democrat dividing lines are pro-life/abortion (women’s rights), traditional/gay marriage and transgender rights. There are and will be others but none that polarize like these three at the present. Furthermore, I see the basis for this division as different interpretations of God’s grace. Interestingly, a similar division occurred in New Testament times between law and grace. However, the issue then was whether Christians must keep the Mosaic Law to be believers. I believe the issue today is whether Christians can live by grace alone or by grace and truth. John 1:17 says, “For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.” Christians who insist on grace alone without truth are deceived. The account of the woman caught in adultery is one of many examples of the absolute link between grace and truth. In John 8:1-11, Jesus tells the woman, “Neither do I condemn you (that’s grace); go and sin no more (that’s truth).” The problem with making grace alone the message of the Gospel is that the issue of sin (or the truth of our human condition) is ignored. That is why Paul focused on Christ’s crucifixion (I Corinthians 1:23). The issue was and still is sin. We cannot ignore sin and the saving power of the cross to set us free from sin. If we do, Christ died in vain. Christ came to set us free from sin (see Isaiah 61:1-3 and Romans 1:16). Carl Burkhead, Lawrence

targeting information about Islamic State and Jabhat alNusra positions in Syria, so that Russian forces can attack the jihadists and avoid hitting groups that, in theory, are working with the U.S. The Obama administration is debating whether to endorse such RussianAmerican sharing of targeting intelligence. The U.S. military, seeing aggressive Russian behavior in Europe, is wary. Administration officials who favor cooperation argue that it should come with a warning — that if Syrian forces continue bombing U.S.-backed opposition groups, the U.S. will strike back against the Syrians and take their jets out of the sky. If Russia accepts such a real limitation on President Bashar al-Assad, then it should join the team. But if it continues unlimited support for Assad, Russia will only fuel the jihadists’ rage — and complicate American efforts to build a broader, unified command. The terrorists who struck Istanbul, Dhaka, Baghdad and Medina made a potentially disastrous mistake. It may not look that way, after last week’s encounter with the metastasizing virus of the Islamic State. But the real goal of the jihadists has been to divide Muslims and the West. If the U.S. offers strong leadership now, it can repair that breach — and help organize a military and intelligence alliance against a common threat.

LAWRENCE

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 8, 1916: years “Negotiations ago looking to the IN 1916 merger of the two Lawrence telephone companies are proceeding nicely, it was learned at a meeting last evening of the city commissioners, a committee of business men and W. P. Hemphill of Kansas City, Mo., who is trying to bring about the merger of the companies.... In case the merger is effected it is proposed to put the following list of telephone rentals into effect: Office telephone, $3.50 per month. Residence telephone, $1.75 per month. Party line telephone, $1.25 per month. While these rates are some higher than the present rates, it is felt that they will be satisfactory as the service would be the same as that secured from the combined lines at present.” “Troop No. 5 of the Boy Scouts of Lawrence camped overnight Friday. They went northeast of town a little over three miles. A few boys went early to get fish for supper for the troop, but none were caught. After supper they played games till they were tired. Then sitting close in the light of the camp fire they told ghost stories. The scoutmaster’s story was such a good one it made all the boys feel creepy. The scouts did not get as much sleep as desired on account of the many hungry mosquitos. Breakfast was eaten at a rather early hour and then the boys went to a fishing place not far off. There were about twenty-three fish caught.... The troop can not go out for hikes that last more than one night now, because the scoutmaster, Mr. Todd, is attending summer school at the University.” “A running faucet in the office of Dr. P. N. Stevens, a dentist in the Jackson block, almost caused some damage to the Bell Bros. Music company last night. The water leaked through the floor of the office and was dripping on a half dozen pianos below when discovered by James Monroe, the nightwatchman. The pianos were moved before serious damage was done.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

More than an inch of rain fell on Lawrence in a three-hour period Thursday morning. Thunderstorms rolled into Douglas County around 4:30 a.m., and high winds and hail prompted severe thunderstorm warnings. Wind gusts of 53 mph were measured just before 5 a.m. at Lawrence Municipal Airport, according to the National Weather Service. The bulk of the rainfall, 0.8 inches, was recorded between 5 and 6 a.m., with rain picking up again after 7 a.m. Aside from a few, scattered power outages, Jillian Rodrigue, assistant director of Douglas County Emergency Management, said Lawrence saw very few weatherrelated incidents. “There were a few places where the power was out and then came back on, but I haven’t heard of a whole lot of damage,” she said.

Hoping for a break in the weather, Rodrigue said the emergency management team planned to head to Eudora later Thursday, where they had received reports of additional power outages and several fallen trees. Lawrence had 300 customers without power as of 8 a.m., according to Westar Energy’s online outage map. About 600 customers were without power near Lecompton, and about 700 customers were without power in the area between Lawrence and Linwood, north of the Kansas River. Just to the east, storm damage was more extensive. Media outlets in Kansas City reported that about 50,000 households in Kansas City were without power following the storm, and multiple trees were downed in the metro area. — Staff Reports

NATO nations ducking the check Only five of 28 members in global alliance meet obligations to pay their share for defense Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

WARSAW The 28-member NATO alliance has made small gains in defense spending since its leaders last gathered in 2014, but there remains a big separation between those paying for the common defense and those who aren’t. New figures released by NATO on Monday show that only five member countries — the United States, Greece, the United King-

dom, Estonia and Poland — meet the required threshold of 2% or more of economic output devoted to defense. Still, there has been overall progress. Twenty-two NATO members spend a greater share of their economy on defense than they did last year, and the alliance-wide increase was 2.65%. “For the first time in several years, we are seeing the downward trend in NATO defense spending be halted, and in 2016, overall defense spending will be larger than it was in the prior

year,” said Charles Kupchan, who coordinates European policy for Obama’s National Security Council. But the United States still pays most of the bills. The U.S. share of total NATO defense spending increased over the past year, from 71.9% to 72.3%. The defense spending goal was a key talking point at the last NATO Summit in Wales two years ago, when nations not meeting their commitment pledged to move toward the 2% guideline within a decade. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg talks about the 2% goal in every capital he visits and will address it at the

summit in Warsaw this week. He said the 2016 numbers are encouraging. “This is real progress. After many years of going in the wrong direction, we are starting to go into the right direction,” he told defense ministers in Brussels last month. “But we are still far from where we need to be. And we clearly need to do more. Both to increase the level of defense spending towards 2% and to spend on the priorities we have identified as an alliance.” The 2% goal is largely unenforceable. NATO has always acknowledged special circumstances and varying levels of participation among its members.

SMILEY N. POOL, DALLAS MORNING NEWS, VIA AP

Police respond Thursday after shots were fired at a Black Lives Matter rally in downtown Dallas.

Chaos erupts as shots fired at protest against police brutality WFAA-TV, Dallas-Fort Worth DALLAS Multiple snipers shot 11 police officers from a building during a protest against police brutality, Dallas Police Chief David O. Brown said in a statement Thursday night. Four of the officers were killed, Dallas Police tweeted. Brown earlier said two officers were in surgery and three were in critical condition. “An intensive search for suspects is currently underway,” he said. “No suspects are in custody at this time.” Minutes earlier, Dallas Area Rapid Transit tweeted that four of its officers had been shot and one

of them had died. The three others had non-life-threatening injuries. One police officer was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, the same hospital where President John F. Kennedy was pronounced dead after being shot Nov. 22, 1963, WFAA reported. A hospital representative referred questions to Dallas Police. Live video feeds from news organizations and reports from witnesses painted a picture of a chaotic scene, with police cars converging on a downtown building. Marchers protesting police shootings were moving down Lamar Street near Griffin when shots were fired. One witness told The Dallas

Morning News that he heard “what sounded like six to eight shots.” A bystander who was at the scene told WFAA the shooter stood by as the rally passed him, then opened fire on officers. Another bystander, Richard Adams, said the protest was “a lovely, peaceful march,” until they were walking down Commerce Street near the Bank of America building parking garage when he heard what sounded like “a bunch of firecrackers going off.” “Everybody just stopped — ‘Run, run for your lives!’ Women with children and babies and everybody was chaotically running. And then, maybe I was a half-ablock away, calming down a little

In less than 48 hours, the publication of disturbing video in which bystanders captured footage of police fatally shooting suspects rekindled the long-running national debate on U.S. law enforcement’s use of deadly force and spurred protests in several cities across the nation at which thousands of protesters turned out. Incidents involving two black men, Alton Sterling, 37, in Baton Rouge and Philando Castile, 32, in suburban St. Paul, again focused attention on distrust of law enforcement in the AfricanAmerican community. “Would this have happened if the driver and passengers were white?” Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton said Thursday. “I don’t think it would have. So I’m forced to confront that, and I think all of us in Minnesota are forced to confront (that) this kind of racism exists. It is incumbent on all of us to vow to do what we can to see that it doesn’t continue to happen.” “How many more wrenching videos do we need to see before there is real change?” said Jamira Burley, a campaign manager with Amnesty International USA, which has criticized U.S. law enforcement for lethal force standards that fail to meet international standards.

Bright enough for ya? Unique planet sports trio of suns Scientists discover 16M-year-old world Doyle Rice

Don’t forget the sunscreen on planet HD 131399Ab: It has three suns. The planet, about 320 light years from Earth in the constellation Centaurus, is unlike any other known world, scientists said. Anyone on the planet — if it harbored life, which scientists said is impossible — would either

experience constant daylight or enjoy triple sunrises and sunsets each day, depending on the seasons, which last longer than human lifetimes. The orbit of the 16 millionyear-old planet is by far the widest known path within a multistar system. Surprisingly, it’s quite stable, scientists announced in a study published Thursday in the journal Science. Typically, the complex gravitational attractions from other suns in such a system render the orbit unstable, meaning the planet could be ejected from its path. “We were surprised to find the planet in an orbit so long that it

could be influenced by all three stars,” said astronomer Daniel Apai of the University of Arizona, one of the study’s authors. The planet takes about 600 years to orbit its main sun. Since

the planet was discovered about a year ago, astronomers have seen only a tiny fraction of its elliptical orbit. Apai said scientists’ best guess is that the planet mainly orbits the most massive and bright-

est star in the system — star A. “In the few other systems where planets and multiple stars co-exist, the planets have usually been seen very close to one star and very far from the other; therefore, the planet’s orbit was always dominated by one star,” Apai said. If researchers are wrong and its orbit is longer, “it could swing to the other stars and back, an orbit which in most cases would lead to the planet being slingshotted out of the system,” Apai said. The planet was discovered by astronomers using the European Southern Observatory’s “Very Large Telescope” in Chile.

DEA rewires rules on tapping

Trump seeks out unity on the Hill

Agents must consult with federal lawyers

David Jackson @djusatoday USA TODAY

Donald Trump urged Republican lawmakers to get behind his presidential campaign Thursday, though tensions surfaced with critics who still refused to endorse their party’s presumptive nominee — including one who described the election as a “dumpster fire.” Visiting Capitol Hill amid his search for a running mate and planning for this month’s Republican convention, Trump blamed the media for campaign flaps that include his comments about Iraq dictator Saddam Hussein. He also complained about GOP lawmakers who have criticized him. One GOP critic, Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska, spoke with Trump, but did not change his views. “Mr. Sasse continues to believe that our country is in a bad place and, with these two candidates, this election remains a dumpster fire,” said a statement from his office. “Nothing has changed.” Another Republican critic, Sen. Jeff Flake EPA of Arizona, Donald mixed it up Trump met with Trump with Repubduring the lican lawmeeting. makers Flake, who Thursday on has said Capitol Hill. Trump’s rhetoric and immigration proposals are alienating Hispanic voters, responded to Trump by referencing his past criticism of Sen. John McCain, a former Vietnam prisoner of war — Flake told the businessman that he is the senator from Arizona “who didn’t get captured,” the senator said. When Trump vowed to attack Flake publicly and predicted he would lose re-election, Flake said he is not on the ballot this year. “I mentioned in there and I still hope to be able to support the nominee, but it’s becoming increasingly difficult to think that that’s possible,” Flake told The Arizona Republic. Trump tweeted that he had “great meetings with Republicans in the House and Senate. Very interesting day! These are people who love our country!” Rep. Reid Ribble, R-Wis., a Republican who said he won’t vote for Trump, said he did not think the businessman “moved the needle” with his appeal.

Diamond Reynolds, girlfriend of Philando Castile, talks about his shooting death with protesters and media outside the governor’s residence Thursday in St. Paul.

Slain man’s girlfriend says police are here to ‘assassinate us’ Two police shootings of black men leave Obama ‘troubled’ John Bacon @jmbacon USA TODAY

The Minnesota woman who live-streamed on Facebook the dramatic moments after her African-American boyfriend was fatally shot by police issued a plea for justice Thursday. St. Anthony interim Police Chief Jon Mangseth said Philando Castile, 32, was fatally shot during a traffic stop at about 9 p.m. Wednesday. Diamond Reynolds said she and her 4-year-old daughter were in the car. She live-streamed the aftermath of the shooting, which showed Castile bleeding and dazed while the officer continues to point his gun, so that “the people can determine who was right and who was wrong,” she said. Gov. Mark Dayton expressed condolences to Castile’s family and asked the U.S. Justice De-

partment to investigate the shooting. FBI Director James Comey said he expects federal authorities to investigate the case. President Obama issued a statement saying he was “deeply troubled” by the Minnesota shooting and the shooting of African American Alton Sterling a day earlier by police in Baton Rouge. Communities need to address the underlying issues that lead to such incidents and implement “ideas that can make a difference,” Obama said. Reynolds, in another stream Thursday, said the officer claimed they had a broken tail light. He asked for Castile’s license and registration, and as Castile reached into his back pocket, Castile said “I have a firearm on me.” She said she began to yell “he has a permit,” but the officer “took four or five shots for no reason.” “The police did this to me,” Reynolds said, choking back tears. “They took an innocent man away from us. He didn’t do anything, he actually did what police said.” She said she wasn’t told Castile

was dead until 3 a.m., and was treated like a prisoner while the police officer who shot Castile was comforted by other officers. “I want justice,” she said in the 21-minute video. “He should not be home with family. He should be somewhere in jail handcuffed.” She said police officers do not protect black people, they “are here to assassinate us.” In Wednesday’s video, Reynolds explains, “They just killed my boyfriend.” She said the officer fired “four or five times” and “shot his arm off.” The officer can be heard swearing and screaming that he told him not to move and “not to reach for it.” She responds saying he was only trying to grab his wallet to get his ID. “Oh my God, please don’t tell me he’s dead,” she said in the video. Later, she speaks from the back seat of a police car, where she says she is handcuffed and does not know the fate of Castile. Castile’s mother Valerie on Thursday told CNN, “They say there is no (racial) profiling but there is. ... We are being hunted every day. It’s a silent war against African Americans as a whole.”

and Sterling shootings. Thousands of people gathered Thursday at the school where Castile worked, mourning his death. Marches and demonstrations also were underway in cities across the nation, including New York, Washington and Chicago. Video surfaced Wednesday night, moments after a St. Anthony, Minn., officer shot Castile during a traffic stop in the neighboring suburb of Falcon Heights. Castile’s girlfriend, Diamond Reynolds, began livestreaming video on Facebook, saying the officer shot Castile for “no reason at all.” In the nineminute video, the woman says Castile told police he had a weapon in the car and was fired on as he tried to reach for his ID. The Minnesota incident occurred on the same day that two videos were made public that

show two Baton Rouge officers grappling with Alton Sterling outside a convenience before one of the officers fatally shot him. Police said Sterling was armed and presented a danger to them. Footage made public by the store owner, Abdullah Mulfahi, late Wednesday raised questions about police’s initial report that Sterling, who was selling CDs outside the convenience store, presented an immediate threat to the officers. Mulfalhi said that the officers had Sterling pinned down and that he was not reaching for a gun when the officers fired. A cellphone video recorded by a bystander captured one of the officers firing at least one round into Sterling and the sound of additional shots as the camera abruptly turned away. In another video made public Wednesday, footage captured by a witness shows the final moments of a police encounter with Dylan

Noble, an unarmed 19-year-old. Police responded to a call regarding a man with a rifle and found Noble driving circles in a dirt lot. Officers reported pursuing Noble for a half-mile before he pulled into a gas station. Noble stepped out of the truck, but police said he failed to comply with orders. The video, published on Fresno Bee and ABC 30 websites, appears to show Noble with hands up when police shot him twice. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer told ABC 30 police body cam video, which the department hadn’t released, offers a fuller picture of what happened — including Noble raising his shirt with his left hand and reaching with his right into his waistband. “The officers, at that point, believed he was trying to retrieve a firearm, and they fired,” Dyer said.

WASHINGTON The Drug Enforcement Administration ordered its agents to seek input from federal prosecutors before tapping Americans’ phone calls or text messages, months after it came under fire for a vast and legally questionable eavesdropping program in the Los Angeles suburbs. The rules are a significant change for the drug agency, which had dramatically increased its use of wiretaps over the past decade by seeking authorization from state judges and prosecutors who were willing to approve the surveillance more quickly and with less scrutiny. By 2014, the DEA sent more than 60% of its wiretap applications to state courts, largely bypassing Justice Department lawyers. The change was part of a wideranging review DEA Administrator Chuck Rosenberg ordered after he took office last year. A spokesman for the drug agency, Russ Baer, said the review identified “deficiencies” in how some agents sought approval for wiretaps. “This is one of several areas the acting administrator looked at and said we can do better,” Baer said. An investigation last year by USA TODAY and The Desert Sun found that the DEA and prosecutors in Riverside County, Calif., outside Los Angeles, had built a wiretapping program that secretly intercepted millions of calls and text messages based on the approval of a single state-court judge. Justice Department lawyers had warned agents that the surveillance — which at its peak accounted for nearly a fifth of all U.S. wiretaps — probably violated a federal law. Under the new rules, DEA agents must consult with federal prosecutors before seeking a wiretap, regardless of whether they want the surveillance approved in state or federal court. They must get approval from a senior DEA official before they can ask a state court to approve the eavesdropping. The goal, Baer said, is to move more of the agency’s surveillance requests to federal court. “That’s significant,” said Brian Butler, a defense lawyer in Louisville who is challenging the legality of the DEA’s Riverside wiretaps in a marijuana trafficking case there. “With federal courts, there’s a significant amount of scrutiny on something before you get a wiretap, and there’s a lot of layers of protection for privacy that don’t exist in state court.” This year, Butler argued to suppress Riverside wiretaps in a Kentucky drug case, insisting they had come from a “rogue” county that approved “illegal wiretaps with astounding frequency.” Last week, Kentucky U.S. District Court Judge David Hale ruled the wiretap evidence could stay, but he said in an order that the “sheer volume” of Riverside wiretaps “suggests that constitutional requirements cannot have been met.” Some privacy advocates questioned whether the new rules would be enough to curb questionable eavesdropping. “It’s form over substance. Nothing’s really going to change,” said Stephanie Lacambra, a staff attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a privacy rights group that has been critical of the DEA’s wiretap practices. Wiretaps are considered so intrusive that federal law requires approval from a senior Justice Department official before agents can even ask a federal court for permission to conduct one. The law imposes no such restriction on state court wiretaps, even when sought by federal agents. On paper, agents’ choice of state or federal court shouldn’t matter. Federal law sets a minimum standard for all wiretaps, whether approved by state judges or federal ones. In practice, the differences can be significant. Justice Department lawyers warned agents, for example, that the wire authorizations approved by the Riverside County Superior Court frequently fell short of what the federal law required.

WOMEN ARE RISING IN THE WEST Jessica Durando | @jessicadurando | USA TODAY

ow that Britain is all but assured that a woman will be prime minister this fall, the prospect is growing that a powerful group of women will run the western world for the first time. British Home Secretary Theresa May and Energy Minister Andrea Leadsom will fight it out for leadership of the Conservative Party on Sept. 9, when the winner is expected also to become prime minister of the United Kingdom. The pair were chosen by party members of Parliament on Thursday as the finalists for the leadership post. May or Leadsom would join German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg, Croatian President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaitė and Maltese President Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca as female leaders in Europe. In three weeks, Hillary Clinton will become the Democratic presidential nominee, the first woman to be nominated by a major party, and would be the first female president of the United States if elected in November. Here’s a closer look at five female leaders:

HANNAH MCKAY, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

ANDREA LEADSOM

AGE: 53 CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: Leadsom entered Parliament in 2010 after a 25-year career in banking and financial services. In 2014, she joined the government as economic secretary to the Treasury. She moved to her current post as Energy Minister last year. PLACE IN HISTORY: Leadsom would become the nation’s leader after only six years in Parliament.

DONALD KRAVITZ, WIREIMAGE

HILLARY CLINTON

AGE: 68 CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: The former first lady won a seat in the U.S. Senate in 2001 and won re-election in November 2006. She ran for president in 2008 but lost the Democratic nomination to Barack Obama, who went on to victory in November and named her as his secretary of State. She served from 2009 to 2013, becoming one of the most traveled occupants of that post during her tenure. PLACE IN HISTORY: Clinton is the first president’s wife to be elected to the Senate and the first woman to represent New York in the chamber. She will set more records when she is formally nominated at the Democratic Convention in Philadelphia later this month and if she wins the White House.

STEPHANIE LECOCQ, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

DALIA GRYBAUSKAITĖ

AGE: 60 CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: Grybauskaitė has served as the president of Lithuania since July 12, 2009. She was appointed European Union commissioner in 2014, responsible for financial programming and budget. In November 2005, she was elected Commissioner of the Year for her efforts to reform the EU budget. PLACE IN HISTORY: Grybauskaitė is Lithuania’s first female president and the first president of the country to be re-elected for a second consecutive term.

In 2005, she became chancellor and won two additional terms in 2009 and 2013. Merkel was awarded the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011, and Time magazine named her Person of the Year in 2015 for her leadership on issues that included Europe’s migrant crisis. PLACE IN HISTORY: Merkel became the first female leader of Germany since the nation was founded in 1871. She also is the first former citizen of East Germany to lead a reunited Germany.

House panel grills Comey over decision on Clinton emails

IN BRIEF LONDON REMEMBERS LIVES LOST

GOP lawmakers are skeptical of accuracy of her public remarks Kevin Johnson USA TODAY

FBI Director James Comey staunchly defended his decision not to recommend criminal charges against Hillary Clinton for her use of private email servers while secretary of State on Thursday, telling a House panel that the decision was based on an “apolitical’’ review of nearly a century of case law. In his first public remarks since announcing the recommendation Tuesday, Comey told a politically divided House Oversight and Government Reform Committee over the course of more than four hours of questioning that the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee did not lie to FBI agents, did not break the law and that the decision not to proceed with criminal charges was the unanimous assessment of a group of investigators and analysts whom the director described as an “allstar team.’’ “There is no way anybody would bring a case against John Doe or Hillary Clinton for the second time in 100 years based on those facts,’’ Comey told lawmakers, referring to a review of past prosecutions. Comey’s appearance before the committee comes two days after he announced his recommendation regarding Clinton and her aides, while also saying there was evidence there were “extremely careless” in their handling of classified information. Attorney General Loretta Lynch formally closed the inquiry Wednesday. Yet Comey’s recommendation was met with considerable skepticism by committee Republicans. “We’re mystified and confused by the fact pattern you laid out and the conclusion you reached,’’ Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, told Comey, adding that any other “average Joe’’ facing the same scrutiny WASHINGTON

Iraqi police and hospital officials say an attack carried out by multiple suicide bombers on a Shiite shrine north of Baghdad has killed 35 and wounded 52. Police officials say the attack began late Thursday night when a suicide bomber targeted policemen guarding the entrance to the Sayyid Mohammed shine in Balad, 50 miles north of Baghdad. A second bomber entered the shrine with nine gunmen targeting security forces as well as families gathering to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, the holiday marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Police officials said a third bomber was killed. N. KOREA CALLS SANCTIONS ‘DECLARATION OF WAR’

North Korea on Thursday called new U.S. sanctions a “declaration of war,” one day after the State Department for the first time named leader Kim Jong Un as a perpetrator of human rights abuses. The reaction was announced by the Korean Central News Agency, according to Reuters. It was at least the fourth time this year that the reclusive nation, which has nuclear weapons, used such language after actions by the United States or South Korea. The latest comment came after the State Department imposed

sanctions Wednesday on Kim and 22 other North Korean officials and entities over human rights violations that include systematic torture, forced labor, extrajudicial killings and rape.— Oren Dorell DEMOCRATS DISRUPT HOUSE AGAIN OVER GUN BILLS

Democratic lawmakers took to the floor of the House of Representatives once again Thursday to push for votes on gun legislation as Republican attempts to find consensus on the issue appeared to stall. Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., had pledged to bring a gun measure up for a vote but then pulled it from the schedule Tuesday amid criticism from both sides of the aisle. He said Thursday that Republicans are still working on a package of anti-terrorism bills that includes gun legislation, but “We’re not going to rush it. ... We’re going to get it right.” — Donovan Slack ALSO ...

JACK GRUBER, USA TODAY

FBI Director James Comey testifies Thursday before a House committee. would likely be in ”handcuffs.” Comey sidestepped direct questions over whether Clinton’s carelessness should disqualify her from future access to classified information, but indicated that any government employee who had similarly handled secret government information would be subject to a rigorous security review to determine “suitability.” Asked whether similar management of classified information would expose an FBI employee to possible termination, Comey said, “Yes.” Several times during the hotly partisan session, Comey pushed back against suggestions that the inquiry’s outcome was influenced by political forces allied with Clinton. At the same time, Republicans may have been provided fodder for attacks on Clinton’s general election campaign. In one exchange with Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., Comey acknowledged that Clinton’s previous public assertions about her management of classified information did not square with the FBI’s conclusions. Rather than the one device Clinton had repeatedly said she used to receive and transmit information, Comey said the former secretary used “multiple” devices. The director also said that at least three communications were marked as classified when she

handled them, a finding at direct odds with Clinton’s previous characterizations that no information marked classified was moved through her system. Under questioning by Chaffetz, Comey also acknowledged that Clinton likely provided classified information to members of her legal team who did not have required security clearances. Republican members signaled that they had no intention of letting the matter fade into the archives of closed cases. Some, including Rep. John Mica, R-Fla., signaled that they would seek a Justice Department perjury investigation into testimony Clinton provided to a House committee during a now-completed review of the secretary’s role in the 2012 attacks on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi. During that sworn testimony, Clinton also maintained that she did not send or receive information marked as classified on her private email servers. Comey said FBI agents did not review Clinton’s testimony in that matter. Late Thursday, State Department spokesman John Kirby says the agency is reopening an internal investigation of possible mishandling of classified information by Clinton and top aides, who still face “administrative sanctions” in the case.

WTLV and WJXX-TV JACKSONVILLE A Florida congresswoman has been indicted on charges related to her involvement with an unregistered charity in Virginia, multiple sources have confirmed to First Coast News. Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Fla., is scheduled to appear Friday afternoon in federal court here. On Thursday, Brown was in the nation’s capital because the House was in session. The congresswoman, who has been in office since 1993, has not returned calls for comment. Close associates say she is “strong” and “not worried” about the indictment. The indictment is sealed, and details that have been released are sketchy. But the charges appear to stem from Brown’s involvement in a group called One Door for Education, which advertised itself as a charity but never was a registered non-profit. One Door’s president, Carla Wiley, entered a guilty plea in early March on a charge of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. That plea appeared to implicate Brown, then identified only as “Person A,” alleging she benefited personally from money raised by One Door. The documents described Person A as a public official who often was

MONEYLINE 30-YEAR MORTGAGE RATES APPROACH ALL-TIME LOWS Mortgage rates tumbled in the past two weeks as the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union drove down Treasury yields. The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.41% this week, slightly higher than the record low of 3.31% set in November 2012 and down from 3.48% a week ago, mortgage giant Freddie Mac said Thursday. The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 2.74%, down from 2.78% last week. PEPSI UPGRADES ITS PROFIT OUTLOOK FOR 2016 PepsiCo continues to see momentum in its salty snacks and breakfast foods divisions in North America, which churn out products such as Quaker Chewy granola bars and Doritos.

WhiteWave’s portfolio will help Danone get a better grip on American tastes that are increasingly moving toward healthier foods. Danone will pay $56.25 a share, a 24% premium over WhiteWave’s 30-day average.

STILL THRIVING IN THE WORKPLACE: SEX HARASSMENT Charisse Jones @charissejones USA TODAY

The U.S. may be on the verge of potentially electing its first female president, and women are filling the ranks of corporate management, but a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against Fox News CEO Roger Ailes has put a spotlight on an issue that experts say remains an all-too frequent reality in the workplace. Former Fox anchor Gretchen Carlson filed a complaint Wednesday claiming she was fired because she refused to sleep with Ailes. She also said that she endured sexist behavior from one of her former co-hosts on the program Fox & Friends. While a case involving a TV personality and powerful news executive garners headlines, surveys show that roughly 1 in 4 women say they have been harassed on the job. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, in a report released last month, said that of the nearly 30,000 harassment complaints it received in 2015, nearly half had to do with sex. And with many victims too frightened to speak up, attorneys and employment experts say the actual number of such instances is likely far higher. “Yes we have more women in

our society, in our culture, in high profile and leadership roles,” says Maya Raghu, director of workplace equality at the National Women’s Law Center. “But a big reason why most people experiencing sexual harassment don’t come forward is there’s still a lot of fear. ... “As long as there is that threat of losing your job, of how you appear to your friends, your peers, that’s going to continue to keep this issue from being resolved.”

resignation of Hewlett-Packard CEO Mark Hurd in August 2010 in the wake of similar charges. Academia has also seen a rash of allegations. Dean Choudhry, the dean of Cal Berkeley’s law school, resigned in March after his executive assistant filed a lawsuit alleging he regularly harassed her. That same month, Enrichetta Ravina, an assistant professor of finance at Columbia University, filed suit against the school and a senior faculty member, Geert Be-

“A big reason why most people experiencing sexual harassment don’t come forward is there’s still a lot of fear.” Maya Raghu, director of workplace equality at the National Women’s Law Center

Nearly three decades ago, the nation was transfixed by the televised Senate hearings in which Anita Hill accused her former boss — and current Supreme Court Justice — Clarence Thomas of making inappropriate sexual comments when she worked as his aide. More recent high-profile allegations of sexual harassment include those made against Dov Charney, the former CEO of retailer American Apparel, who was fired in June 2014 following a string of such complaints, and the

kaert, whom she claims made sexual advances. The standard definition of sexual harassment, based on Title Seven of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, “is conduct that makes the workplace hostile to a reasonable person either because of the severity of a few incidents, or because of the pervasiveness of even less severe conduct,” says Catherine Fisk, a professor of labor and employment law at UC Irvine. “High-profile cases certainly get people talking,” Raghu says.

Eight U.S. airlines have tentatively been awarded flights to Havana, the U.S. Department of Transportation said Thursday. The decision would give 10 U.S. airports at least one weekly nonstop flight to the Cuban capital. In total, the DOT approved 14 different daily routes to Havana as well as one route that would get Saturday-only service. At least some of those flights could start as early as this fall. Regular airline service between the USA and Cuba has been banned for nearly five decades, part of the broader U.S. embargo on Cuba. However, the nations agreed last year to allow up to 110 regularly scheduled airline flights each day as part of President Obama’s effort to normalize relations with Cuba. The DOT announced approval in June for six U.S. airlines to fly from five U.S. destinations to nine Cuban cities other than Havana. The DOT held off on its decision for the Havana routes because interest from U.S. airlines far exceeded the 20 daily flights initially being allowed. “Today we take another important step toward delivering on President Obama’s promise to reengage Cuba,” Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said in a statement revealing the routes. Only 20 daily round-trip flights between the USA and Havana are permitted under the loosened restrictions, but U.S. carriers requested nearly three times as many. The DOT awarded the Havana flights to the carriers it thought provided the most-compelling route applications.

Shooting shines spotlight on Facebook Live Ordinary citizens become instant newscasters as streaming mobile apps capture events as they occur Jessica Guynn @jguynn USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO When a police officer shot her boyfriend, Philando Castile, during a traffic stop, Diamond Reynolds reached for a powerful new medium to bring the world into the car with them. She streamed the bloody and emotional aftermath of the fatal shooting on Facebook Live, her boyfriend slumped in the driver’s seat beside her, her 4-year-old in the backseat and a police officer pointing his gun through the window. Commented one of her viewers, “Don’t stop recording.”

The video, viewed on Facebook more than 3.7 million times, topped newscasts, underscoring the emerging role of streaming video in instantly capturing and broadcasting traumatic events as they unfold. Facebook Live rolled out to celebrities and public figures last summer but only became more widely available this year. The growing demand for streaming video impressed Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who has made it a priority for the Menlo Park, Calif., company. The smartphone is turning ordinary citizens into pocket newscasters, able in an instant to document breaking news with a choice of mobile apps from Face-

book Live to Twitter-owned Periscope. Among the more dramatic examples: the sit-in staged by Democrats in the House of Representatives to protest stalled gun control legislation. The ability to film anything anywhere has created challenges

for Facebook. In June, an Islamic State sympathizer posted a 12minute propaganda video in which he threatened future attacks after killing a police commander and his partner in their home outside Paris. Facebook removed the video. Reynolds’ video was pulled for about an hour from Facebook, causing an uproar among some users. The company blamed a “technical glitch” and restored the video with a warning that the video is graphic, raising questions about the growing power of Facebook to control what content users can view. Facebook says it removes posts and videos with violence or graphic content that are shared to “celebrate or glorify violence.” But it does not remove content being shared to condemn or raise awareness about violence.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

Just a blip? Or are jobs really getting harder to find in the U.S.? The June jobs report out at 8:30 a.m. ET Friday will help answer those questions following a super-weak jobs report in May, when only 38,000 jobs were created and job growth the previous two quarters was revised lower. Wall Street is forecasting a June rebound and estimates that 180,000 new jobs were added. “It’s a crucial report,’ says Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial. Coming off two consecutive months of weaker-than-expected job growth and following Britain’s vote to exit the European Union, a strong report could be a plus for the stock market and push up

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

government bond yields, she says. “For the stock market to move higher, investors need to be assured the economy is solid and not losing momentum,” Krosby says. If jobs come in plentiful it could provide a lift to stocks that sell discretionary goods to consumers, who will benefit from fatter paychecks. A robust rebound in job growth, accompanied by a pickup in wage growth, could also push up yields on long-term government bonds — now near record lows — and provide a lift to hard-hit financial shares, Krosby adds. But rate-sensitive utilities shares, the stock market’s top sector so far this year, could take a hit, she adds. Strong job growth might also put a Federal Reserve interest rate hike back on the table for later in the year, perhaps at the Fed’s December meeting.

Nvidia shares might have already hit peak Q: Can I still buy this red-hot stock? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Nvidia is one of the best stocks you could have bought this year. But chasing after stocks that have already run up in price isn’t usually a good way to boost returns in the future. Nvidia is one of the top makers of computer chips that go into video games, smartphones and computers. Shares of the company’s stock are up 141% over the past year, a strong performance that leads the pack in the Standard & Poor’s 500. Just this year, shares of Nvidia are up nearly 50%, a whopping gain considering the S&P 500 is up only around 2%. The company keeps giving consumers, and investors, new products to have high hopes for. Nvidia this week announced a new, slightly more affordable, high-end graphic processing unit called the GTX 1060. The product is expected to launch in mid-July. The company is also involved in the emerging areas of machine learning, which is almost certainly likely to be part of the next wave of technology in the post-smartphone world. But here’s the problem: None of this is a surprise and is factored into the stock’s price of nearly $49 a share. Analysts see Nvidia’s earnings jumping 22% this year, but they also think the stock is worth $45.28 a share. Shares are past that now.

Businesses see slight rebound, add 172,000 jobs in June Paul Davidson @Pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

Businesses added 172,000 jobs in June, payroll processor ADP said Thursday, in a sign that the government’s employment report could show at least a moderate rebound after two dreary showings. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg predicted ADP would count 160,000 new jobs. They estimate the Labor Department’s survey of the public and private sectors, due Friday, will reveal

180,000 gains. Labor’s tally in May was suppressed by the strike of 35,000 Verizon workers, and it’s expected to be inflated by their return in June. By contrast, the ADP survey is unaffected by the walkout because it counts workers as employed even if they aren’t paid in a given week. In May, ADP said, small businesses added 95,000 jobs, midsize firms, 52,000, and large companies, 25,000. Big corporations continue to struggle because their exports have been clobbered by the strong dollar and a weak global economy, and the oil downturn

is still hurting drilling activity and orders for steel pipes and related products. Manufacturers cut another 21,000 jobs in June, ADP said. The gains were led by trade, transportation and utilities, which added 55,000 jobs, while professional and business services added 51,000. Construction companies cut 5,000 as the industry continued to endure some payback after warm winter weather pulled forward activity and hiring to early in the year. “Job growth remains healthy except in the energy and tradesensitive manufacturing sectors,”

Gains were led by trade, transportation and utilities, which added 55,000 jobs.

says Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s analytics, which helps ADP compile the report. “Large multinationals are struggling a bit, and (the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union) won’t help, but small- and midsize companies continue to add strongly to payrolls.” Other labor market indicators have been mixed. Initial jobless claims, a gauge of layoffs, remain low, and a measure of service-sector activity released Wednesday showed a solid upswing last month. But a Conference Board survey indicated online ads fell sharply in June.

Bill Cosby fails in new attempt to have assault case dismissed Defense had sought to cross-examine his accuser Saranac Hale Spencer and Maria Puente USA TODAY

NORRISTOWN, PA . Bill Cosby lost another bid to get criminal sexual assault charges tossed after a judge ruled Thursday that there is enough evidence to try him even though he was unable to cross-examine his accuser at a preliminary hearing. Cosby arrived at the courthouse in suburban Philadelphia to appeal Judge Steven O’Neill’s decision in May to send Cosby to trial on charges of aggravated sexual assault on accuser Andrea Constand stemming from an encounter between the two in 2004. Cosby’s lawyers insisted a trial could not be held until they crossexamine Constand. Constand did not testify at the preliminary hearing in May; instead, prosecutors cited a court ruling they believe allowed them to use her police statement taken more than a decade after the encounter. A lower court judge agreed and upheld the charges; Cosby wanted O’Neill to reconsider. The judge ruled against Cosby’s habeas corpus petition, which sought to compel Constand to testify and be cross-examined under oath or dismiss the charges. Cosby expressed disappointment in a statement issued almost immediately. “Once again the Prosecution had the opportunity and the obli-

gation to place Mr. Cosby’s accuser under oath so that we can search for the truth but they refused,” the statement read. “Today a man who has meant so much to so many; a man who has given so much to so many; has had his constitutional rights trampled on. We truly believe that our Supreme Court will right this wrong and reverse this decision so that we can finish the mission of proving Mr. Cosby’s innocence.” Cosby’s legal team argued that Constand’s police statement was not only hearsay, but it raised more questions than it answered. “We’re talking about an allegation of assault that happened over 11 years ago,” said one of Cosby’s defense lawyers, Christopher Tayback, arguing to the court that the statement read during the preliminary hearing was taken so long ago that the officer who recorded it has no recollection of it. It should not stand in for the witness herself, Tayback argued. “You know what a witness can do?” he asked the court. “A wit-

ness can recant.” He said a witness can do and say all kinds of things that a piece of paper can’t. Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin Steele maintained that prosecutors wouldn’t put Constand on the stand for a preliminary hearing. “It’s our position that we’re not going to retraumatize victims,” he said Meanwhile, the state Supreme Court also is reviewing the question of whether a defendant has a right to confront a witness at a preliminary hearing, although the high court has not said when it will hear arguments. Prosecutors in May relied on a state Superior Court ruling last year that allows hearsay testimony at a preliminary hearing to spare possible victims from repeated court appearances. Cosby, 78, a mentor to Constand, 43, when she was working at Temple University, is accused of drugging and molesting her 12 years ago at his home in Montgomery County outside Philadelphia. She made the accusations to police a year later but charges were never filed, so she sued him in civil court. The two settled in 2006 and the case was sealed. The accusations were revived after dozens of women began accusing Cosby of drugging or raping them or both in episodes dating back decades. In 2015, portions of Cosby’s deposition in the civil suit were released by a judge, prompting prosecutors to reopen the case. Cosby says the encounter with Constand was consensual and the drug he gave her was Benadryl. Constand told police the drugs left her semiconscious and unable to move.

Hy-Vee adding sit-down restaurant, bar G

rocery shopping may really get dangerous. What shall only be referred to as an “unfortunate Dorito incident” ( I still note there was no sign limiting how many bags a fellow could purchase, and my banker signed off on the line of credit) has pretty much barred me from doing the grocery shopping in my house. But soon I’ll be able to tag along and have a steak dinner and some adult beverages in a local grocery store while my wife takes care of the shopping.

Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

As we’ve briefly mentioned in the past, the HyVee grocery chain has been adding something called Hy-Vee Market Grilles to select stores. Several in the Kansas City area have them, and now work has begun to add one to the Hy-Vee store on Clinton Parkway. The concept behind a Hy-Vee Market Grille is simple enough: It is a sitdown restaurant — complete with a bar — inside the grocery store. The walk-up food counters — think Chinese, Italian, sandwich stations — will remain at the Hy-Vee for people who want that type of walk-up dining service.

Image Courtesy of Hy-Vee

THE BAR AREA of Lawrence’s new Hy-vee Market Grille on Clinton Parkway likely will look like this. But the Hy-Vee Grille will be for customers who want an actual waiter or waitress to serve them at a table. And, unlike at the walk-up counters, each meal ordered in the HyVee Grille will be custom made. In other words, the restaurant won’t just take an entrée item out of the hot food case at the walkup counter. “It is going to be another place to come for a date night or another place to go and watch the big game,” said Jason Draves, store operations manager. “It is going to be a full restaurant.” If having a sit-down

restaurant in a grocery store seems a bit unusual to you, remember that a grocery may have one built-in advantage in the restaurant business: A grocery store always has a large variety of food on stock. That allows the HyVee Grille to have a pretty broad menu. I don’t have specifics on the Lawrence menu, but looking at online menus for Hy-Vee Market Grilles across the country is interesting. They feature salads, Asian dishes, pizzas, seafood, Italian dishes, sushi, and plenty of American sandwiches and other such dishes. And the menu

features three different cuts of steak, a pork chop entree and even a shepherd’s pie dish. Draves said the Lawrence location also will have a full bar. The company’s website advertises that the bars in other Hy-Vee Market Grilles stock 65 craft beers, an extensive wine list and also serve cocktails. “They can have a Bloody Mary with their breakfast, if they want,” Draves said. The website also touts that many of the locations have omelet stations and brunch buffets during select times. As for the logistics of

the work underway at the Clinton Parkway Hy-Vee, the grille will be located in the southwest corner of the building where the food court seating area was located. A new casual seating area will be added near where the westernmost entrance of the store is currently located. A new entrance to the store will be built, Draves said. Draves estimated work likely will take at least three months to complete. Construction crews began work last week. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

Green building becoming standard

he planning stage for building a new home or a room remodel is prime time for considering the addition of environmentally friendly materials. According to the National Association of Home Builders, sustainable construction became popular in the 1970s when high oil prices increased demand for energy-efficient products.

Construction methods and materials going in to houses today in general are much more efficient than a decade ago. Many modern building concepts, such as moisture barriers on houses and foam insulation, were initially created as the energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, money-saving products of their day, which in time became the norm. Green building means much more than solar panels and insulation.

and water heaters. Many sustainable upgrades to a home require a larger outlay of money in the beginning, with the costs offset over time in energy savings and durability. Homeowners interested in lowering costs and making their home more environmentally sustainable can look into a home energy audit. The test can tell what you need to change to save money and energy. The U.S. Department of Energy’s website, energy. gov, has a lot of information on green building, including how-to instructions for a do-it-yourself energy audit. The Lawrence Home Builders Association at lhba.net also has good tips.

Morris disputes Durant decision

Finding a niche Ex-LHS standout Green enjoys time in Europe

Though he plays in the Eastern Conference for a team that didn’t make the playoffs last season, Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris didn’t mind sharing his thoughts on back-to-back Western Conference champion Golden State adding superstar Kevin Durant in free agency this summer. When reporters prodded the former Kansas University star on the NBA’s biggest news of the offseason, Morris didn’t hold back his criticism of Durant, sharing the opinion with some fans that the former MVP didn’t need to join forces with reigning back-to-back MVP Steph Curry and the Warriors, who just won a record 73 games in the regular season. “I don’t think it’s right,” Morris began, in a video interview captured by Kyle Weidie of truthaboutit.net, who covers the Wizards. “But it is what it is.” As reporters tried to get more out of Morris on the move that caught the entire NBA’s attention, he obliged, following up with his judgment of the situation. “You don’t do that, man,” Morris said of Durant, Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green forming a super-team that appears destined to win the 2017 NBA title, or at the very least earn a rematch with LeBron James’ Cavaliers. Trying to put himself in KD’s Nikes, Morris explained he didn’t understand why Durant, who just lost to Golden State in the West finals with Oklahoma City, would then join forces with the Warriors. Morris claimed there would have been a “fire inside” him to come back and beat Golden State next season. “But a lot of guys are different,” Morris added. “ I just didn’t expect that from Durant. I know him a little bit, and I didn’t expect that.”

Taste of playoffs inspires Marcus This past spring, Marcus Morris got his first taste of the NBA playoffs. Now the Detroit forward wants to make sure his next trip to the postseason will feel more like a feast. Five years removed from his standout college career at Kansas, Morris finally reached the league’s biggest stage with the Pistons, his third team. The versatile 6-foot-9 forward even played fairly well, averaging 17.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists, while shooting 46.8 percent from the field and 38.9 percent from three-point range. Those numbers, however, weren’t nearly enough for Morris and Detroit to upset the Eastern Conference’s top seed and distinct favorite, Cleveland. James and the Cavaliers, the eventual NBA champions, disposed of the Pistons in four games. The opening-round exit left Morris

COLORADO STATE GUARD DORIAN GREEN, A LAWRENCE HIGH PRODUCT, celebrates as time expires in an NCAA Tournament victory over Missouri on March 21, 2013, in Lexington, Ky.

Armed with knowledge and maturity that belied his birth certificate, former Lawrence High basketball and baseball superstar Dorian Green was offered a full-time Div. I assistant basketball coaching job at the age of 22. That’s as rare as the shade of blue on the Hope Diamond, almost as rare as a golfer who spends more time talking about someone else’s round than his own fourhour display of great shots that amazingly took such unlucky bounces on nearly every hole. Green was a prodigy in the coaching world, but not for long because he chose to leave it. Niko Medved had been an assistant coach under Tim Miles, the head coach during Green’s first three years at Colorado State. Medved was so impressed by Green, who started 128 consecutive games at CSU and as a senior scored 28 points to lead the Rams to an NCAA Tournament victory against Missouri, that he wanted him on his staff immediately. Miles advised Green to jump at the opportunity, pointing out that there are only 1,000 such jobs and 100,000 aspiring coaches in pursuit of them. Miles told Green it was “too good of an opportunity to pass up.” Medved called Green, “as smart and cerebral as any player I’ve ever coached.” Green coached under Medved for a year, but the straight-A student wasn’t done learning, didn’t have playing basketball out of his system and wanted to do it professionally. Two years into a professional basketball career that took him to Austria and then Germany, Green has no regrets about leaving coaching. He is looking forward to Please see GREEN, page 3D

Ex-Jayhawk Geubelle qualifies for Olympics in triple jump J-W Staff Reports

Eugene, Ore. — Kansas University product Andrea Geubelle, a threetime NCAA champion for KU from 2010-13, qualified for the Rio Olympics by placing third in the triple jump at the U.S. Trials on Thursday night at Hayward Field. “It’s pretty sweet,” Geubelle said. “I had no idea what I was coming into because we had two girls with the standard and a handful that are right there. I’m dealing with injuries. I don’t really know what’s going Please see SMITH, page 3D on with my heel, but I had

six jumps to leave it all out there on the track, and I walked out knowing that I did. “Third place … as a competitor, I’d love to get first place, but I’m going to Rio and representing the USA, and I can’t be more excited.” Geubelle opened her day with a mark of 45-01⁄4 on the first attempt of six, then went 45-91⁄4 on her fifth attempt. Geubelle is the second current or former KU track athlete to qualify for Rio this year after Daina Levy qualified in the hammer throw.

Two other former KU athletes competed in the Trials on Thursday. Crystal Manning was 11th in the women’s triple jump at 4301⁄4. And Mason Finley was first in the men’s discus preliminares with a throw of 218-11 to qualify for tonight’s finals. “It was awesome — a lifetime best on my first throw,” Mason said. “I think the rain slowed me down to where I wasn’t throwing on an impulse. It shows I don’t have to kill it. My dad and my coaches have been telling me that forever.”

Warriors introduce Durant Oakland, Calif. (ap) — Kevin Durant wanted to look MVP Stephen Curry in the eye, meet Klay Thompson face to face, and find out for himself whether they truly wanted him as a teammate. The All-Star shooting tandem made it clear during a meeting last weekend that he would be a perfect fit with the Warriors. “When I met these guys, I felt as comfortable as I’ve ever felt. It was organic, it was authentic, it was real,” Durant said. “It was feelings I couldn’t ignore.” Splash! Golden State had a superstar cast. The Warriors formally announced the signing of the seven-time All-Star and four-time scoring champion on Thursday and introduced him with fanfare during a news conference at the team’s downtown Oakland practice facility, where screens read, “WELCOME KD TO DUB NATION.” So, what’s next? Seventyfour wins and a title? Golden State’s record-setting season with the best wins total ever of 73 ended without back-to-back championships. “I haven’t made the decision yet, but he might start,” NBA Coach of the Year Steve Kerr joked, sitting next to a smiling Durant. “We lost in the Finals. We want to get better. We want to be better. You can’t do any better than adding KD to the current crew.” Kerr won’t change his team’s style with the addition of KD, whom the coach will count on as a “brilliant passer” and someone who can cut and do it all. “We’ve got as many or more playmakers on the floor as anybody,” said Kerr, already planning his training camp strategy on the court and how to prepare his players for even further scrutiny. Durant might be able to match his coach’s wit, too. When asked about Thompson being part of the pitch meeting, Durant quipped about receiving a text message from him: “I didn’t know he had a phone.” Of Warriors assistant coach and former member of the Thunder staff Ron Adams, he said, “Ron Adams was the only reason I came.” They shared a big hug before Thursday’s festivities. Durant announced his decision Monday in a story on “The Players’ Tribune,” then Thursday marked the first day free agents could sign their deals. He joins the NBA runner-up Warriors — who rallied from a 3-1 deficit to beat Durant’s former Oklahoma City Thunder in a thrilling seven-game Western Conference Finals before losing the finals in seven games to Cleveland — on a two-year contract worth more than $54 million. There is a player option after the first year. Not that Durant plans to skip town after one season. He’s here to win a championship. “You never expect to get this much better,” general manager Bob Myers said. “I’ve admired Kevin as a basketball fan. ... I’m just excited to watch you play. I’m honored you’re here, I’m honored you chose us. It’s a wonderful feeling.”

ANGELIQUE KERBER, LEFT, WALKS OFF COURT with Venus Williams after Kerber ousted Williams from Wimbledon on Thursday in London.

Kerber upends Venus, thwarts all-Williams final London — Instead of the ninth all-Williams final at a Grand Slam tournament, there will be a rematch of another sort to determine the title at Wimbledon. And so as Serena Williams again stands one victory from her record-tying 22nd major title, she will need to beat a woman who already stopped her once this year in that pursuit, Angelique Kerber. After Williams needed all of 48 minutes to overwhelm Elena Vesnina 6-2, 6-0 at the All England Club, older sister Venus failed to join in the family fun, losing to Kerber 6-4, 6-4 in Thursday’s second semifinal. Since winning her sixth Wimbledon trophy a year ago to raise her career count at Grand Slam events to 21, Serena has come quite close to pulling even with Steffi Graf at 22 — the most in the Open era, which began in 1968 (Margaret Court’s all-time mark is 24). But the American was surprisingly beaten by Roberta Vinci in the U.S. Open semifinals last September, then by Kerber in the Australian Open final in January, and by Garbine Muguruza in the French Open final last month. Reaching the final at each of a year’s first three major tournaments might sound good to other players. Not to this one. “For anyone else in this whole planet, it would be a wonderful accomplishment,” Serena said. “For me, it’s about, obviously, holding the trophy and winning, which would make it a better accomplishment for me. For me, it’s not enough. But I think that’s what makes me different. That’s what makes me Serena.” Yes, she is one of a kind. When a reporter asked what she makes of it when others talk about her as one of history’s greatest female athletes, this was the reply: “I prefer the word, one of the greatest ‘athletes’ of all time.” Hard to argue. And the case will be even stronger if she can do what she couldn’t in Melbourne: solve Kerber’s left-handed game. “I know,” Kerber said, “she will go out and try everything to beat me right now.”

CYCLING

Cavendish takes Stage 6 Montauban, France — Mark Cavendish started the Tour de France fearing that his training on the track for the Olympic Games would affect his chances of stage wins at cycling’s biggest race. After the sprinter from the Isle of Man posted a third stage win in less than a week, it’s now obvious that the long hours spent on the boards have helped him improve his speed. The 31-year-old “Manx Missile,” as he is known in the peloton, used his great tactical sense and impressive burst of speed to win the sixth stage of the three-week race in another mass finish on Thursday. It was Cavendish’s 29th Tour stage win overall. “Oh my god, that was terrifying,” said Cavendish, who also wore the yellow jersey for the first time of his career after winning the first stage of the race last weekend in Normandy. “That was like the old days, wheel surfing. Cavendish, who had never been as successful during the first week of the Tour before, beat German ace sprinter Marcel Kittel by half a wheel, with Daniel McLay third. Kittel launched the sprint, but Cavendish attached himself patiently to Kittel’s wheel before overtaking him in the final 200 meters.

LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps

Cavendish passed five-time Tour winner Bernard Hinault to be alone in second on the alltime list of stage winners. Eddy Merckx holds the record with 34 to Cavendish’s 29. Greg van Avermaet finished safely in the main pack and kept the yellow jersey going into today’s first stage in the Pyrenees.

COLLEGES

Leagues propose more time off Power Five conference commissioners want to change NCAA rules to give college athletes more time away from team activities, including no longer counting travel as an off day, a mandatory seven-day break after the season and an additional 14 off days from athletic activity during the academic year. The agreement in concept was announced Thursday by the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and Southeastern Conference. The leagues said they believed they had found the “right balance” to help tens of thousands of athletes with a proposal they are calling Flex 21. The extra 21 days off would be in addition to the current mandatory off days, and could be tailored to fit each team’s schedule with input from coaches and athletes.

GOLF

Mirim Lee ties Open record San Martin, Calif. — When Mirim Lee walked off the course following her recordtying round, she described her day with words usually not heard when talking about the U.S. Women’s Open. “So today’s round was easy day — easy round, yeah,” Lee said. She sure made it look that way when she became the fifth golfer to shoot a round of 8-under par at the U.S. Women’s Open on Thursday, making 10 birdies on the way to a 64 to take the early lead at CordeValle. With the greens not quite as firm as they likely will be later in the week and the wind not playing a major factor, there were low scores to be had throughout the field — at least for the opening morning of the tournament. “I definitely expect it to change,” said Christie Kerr, who was three shots behind Lee in a tie for second. “I don’t think the USGA likes when we shoot 8-under on their golf course. You have to expect it to change, and if it doesn’t, then you’ll have opportunities to score.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

QB Stidham leaving Baylor Waco, Texas — Jarrett Stidham is transferring from Baylor rather than stay to be the primary backup quarterback behind senior Seth Russell. Stidham made his decision public in a statement posted on his Twitter account Thursday, saying it came after careful thought and consideration. “I would like to thank my teammates, friends, family and fellow students for the support throughout my career thus far,” he wrote. “Also, I want to thank the coaching staff that brought me here and gave me this opportunity to play. This has been a difficult decision.” Stidham, who appeared in 10 games as a freshman with three starts after Russell’s season-ending neck injury, didn’t say in his post where he was planning to go.

a third season overseas and hasn’t a clue what country he next will call home. “I could hear any day,” Green said. “I could hear tomorrow. It could be two weeks or it could be a month.” Green, who said he has not looked into the NBA Developmental League, has an agent shopping his services. “I want to keep traveling and keep seeing places,” said Green, who has helped LHS coach Mike Lewis at his summer camp the past couple of years. As a professional rookie, Green lived in Gmunden, Austria, which he described as “a small town of 13,000 people tucked away in the mountains, next to a really huge lake. It was beautiful, really, really cool.” His second season started late as he recovered from a stress fracture of the foot. He spent it in Nurmeberg, Germany. “Loved Nuremberg,” Green said. “The city was awesome. It’s a big city with a lot to do and a lot of World War II history. It was a lot of fun.” Green has heard horror stories from former teammates who said they were owed money by teams and never expect to see it. Two years into his career, Green said all of his checks have

The teams pay for lodging and provide a car, which Green said enables him to spend money traveling through Europe and still leaves him with some money to take back home to Lawrence every spring. In Austria, each team was allowed five foreignborn players, and no restrictions were placed on how many could play on the court at one time. In Germany, six foreigners were allowed per roster, but at least two Germans had to be on the court at all times, a source of frustration for more talented Americans who must watch less-talented players take their minutes. “I played in front of

some pretty nice crowds,” Green said. “Five, six thousand maybe. Somewhere in there.” And then there was the night in Austria that Green’s team played against the dregs of the league. “The team was so bad you could count the number of people in the stands,” Green said. Could count them and did. “We played in front of 37 people,” Green said. “And that counts our under-19 team, their coach and our general manager. It was the craziest experience.” Like most people at the age of 25, Green isn’t sure what he wants to do with the rest of his life. His academic history, athletic accomplishments and personal skills suggest that whatever he does, he’ll never stop learning and figuring out how to get better at it. “Maybe I’ll get into coaching, maybe I won’t,” Green said. “I learned a lot in one year of coaching. I also learned a lot in two years of playing. You can learn from every situation. What I’ve done the last three years can and will help me. I did enjoy coaching, and I would enjoy doing it again, but I don’t know exactly what I want to do.” His desire to resume his basketball career was too great for him to ignore. “Playing is a once-ina-lifetime opportunity,” Green said. “I wanted to take advantage of it before I looked up one day and it was too late.”

Gooden, Alexander waived By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

There could be one fewer Jayhawk in the NBA for Kansas basketball fans to follow next season. Washington waived veteran power forward Drew Gooden, a fan favorite in D.C., according to CSN Mid-Atlantic’s report on the move. One of the league’s charismatic journeymen, Gooden has played for 10 teams since leaving Kansas and becoming the fourth pick in the 2002 draft. The Wizards, who signed Gooden late into the 2013-14 season, helped revitalize his career after he spent most of that season out of the NBA. Now 34 years old

eager to get back to work immediately during the offseason. “I really didn’t want to get swept, but it is what it is,” Morris told the Pistons’ website. “I promise you next year, we won’t get swept again. That’s for sure.” Just 26, Morris sounds committed to pushing himself during the league’s vacation months in order to advance deeper into the playoffs next spring. “I thought I prepared better last year, but I think this year, summertime, I’ve gotten into it earlier,” Morris said last week. “I’ve been working right now and I think once we get past that first round next year, I think I’ll feel better.”

(Gooden will turn 35 before next season begins), he only played in 30 games this past season with Washington. The backup big man was inactive for eight games during his 14th season — the other 44 he suited up but never checked in. Gooden averaged just 10.2 minutes a game when he did play, contributing 2.7 points, 2.8 rebounds and a career-low mark of 32 percent shooting from the floor — impacted negatively by his 7-for-41 (17.1 percent) season from three-point range. CSN MId-Atlantic reported the Wizards waived Gooden to create salary-cap space for the free agents they attained this summer. While what kind of

market exists for Gooden remains to be seen, he told CSN Mid-Atlantic after the season ended he had no plans to retire. According to ESPN’s Marc J. Spears, Gooden had received inquiries from New York, Toronto, the Los Angeles Lakers and the L.A. Clippers within hours of being waived. Meanwhile, the Portland Trail Blazers waived former Kansas forward Cliff Alexander on Thursday to create salary-cap space, according to a tweet from The Vertical’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Alexander, who played one season at KU, only appeared in eight games for the Blazers last season, scoring 10 points in 36 minutes.

In his fifth season — Morris’ first with the Pistons — he put up career-best averages in points (14.1), rebounds (5.1), assists (2.5) and minutes (35.7), while setting new personal marks in free throws attempted (271) and made (203). Since Detroit’s first playoff appearance in seven years ended in April, Morris said he has spent much of his time working out in his hometown of Philadelphia and nearby Washington, D.C., where his twin brother Markieff now plays. The Pistons went 44-38 and were seeded eighth in the East, with Morris as a key contributor, along with Reggie Jackson, Andre Drummond, Tobias Harris (acquired before the trade deadline) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Reportedly, Detroit coach Stan Van Gundy appreciated

Morris’ ability to hold himself accountable to his teammates. Now feeling more at home in Detroit, Morris plans to address some personal on-court inefficiencies before the Pistons reconvene for training camp this fall. “Toward the end of last season, I feel like I fell off a little bit on defense,” Morris said. “I’ve been watching a lot of film and breaking down my shot a lot more. Improving my handle.” The Pistons, competing in the relatively even playing field of the East (outside of Cleveland), will need all they can get out of Morris to get back to the playoffs or make a jump toward the conference’s upper echelon. “I’m looking to get better. I feel like I’ve got to go to another level for the team to go to another level,” Morris said.

Henry to play for Warriors’ summer team J-W Staff Reports

Former Kansas University guard Xavier Henry is a member of the Golden State Warriors’ summer-league team, the organization announced. Henry, a 6-foot-6, 220

pounder from Oklahoma City, finished last season with Golden State’s D-League team in Santa Cruz, Calif. Henry, 25, suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon while with the Los Angeles Lakers in Novem-

ber of 2014 and was out for nearly 15 months. He returned to average 15.6 points a game in nine DLeague games last season. The Warriors will play in the Las Vegas summer league that begins play today.

Royals halt slide, edge Mariners, 4-3 Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Salvador Perez gave Royals reliever Brooks Pounders his first career win, Mariners starter James Paxton a frustrating no-decision and Kansas City a much-needed confidence boost with one mighty swing. Perez capped a threehit night with a double off the wall in the ninth inning Thursday night, scoring Whit Merrifield and Jarrod Dyson and giving the Royals a 4-3 victory over Seattle to open a four-game set. “How many times have we been through it? I mean, we fight. We keep fighting,” said Danny Duffy, who kept the Royals in the game with 61⁄3 strong innings. “You’re never out of the game with these boys.” Paxton kept them out of it for eight innings, using just 78 pitches to get that far. The only damage he allowed came in the eighth when Paulo Orlando delivered a two-out single to get Kansas City within 3-2. Steve Cishek (2-5) came on to close the game and Merrifield doubled to lead off the ninth. Kendrys Morales was hit by a pitch moments later, Jarrod Dyson came on to run for him, and Eric Hosmer struck out before Perez dug in at the plate and a crowd of 31,425 reached a fevered pitch. He lined a shot to center to give Pounders (1-0), who pitched an inning of relief, his stunning win. “It’s a great moment in my life,” the big reliever said. “To walk away with

a win in that game is just unbelievable. It says a lot about the team we have here.” The victory snapped a four-game skid for Kansas City and extended Seattle’s road losing streak to 10. “I don’t know if you can be much more in control of the game to being on the wrong side of things in an inning and a half,” Mariners manager Scott Servais said. “Tough game to lose.”

The Mariners built an early 2-0 lead not with a homer — they entered the game tied for second in the majors with 128 of them — but with old-fashioned small ball. Dae-Ho Lee scored from second on Dan Robertson’s single in the second inning, and Robertson scored after a sacrifice bunt and sacrifice fly in the fifth. Nelson Cruz added a homer off Joakim Soria in the eighth. Those three runs seemed insurmountable the way Paxton was cruising along. He induced inningending double plays the first two innings, then another one in the third after back-to-back singles led it off. Ketel Marte then made a nice play ranging out from third base on Alex Gordon’s blooper into shallow left field to leave Brett Eibner on third base and end the inning. The worst throw Paxton made before the eighth wasn’t to the mound but to first base, when Kendrys Morales chopped a grounder back to him the previous inning. Paxton’s throw slipped and bounced halfway to the bag. With everything else going for him, it still beat Morales easily for the out. “They were popping up the cutter, hitting it on the ground. A lot of ground balls,” Paxton said. “Guys were making great plays behind me. So that’s what happens, you saw guys turn double plays.”

Tulowitzki powers Jays The Associated Press

American League Blue Jays 5, Tigers 4 Toronto — Troy Tulowitzki drove in the tying and go-ahead runs with a bases-loaded single in the eighth inning, and Toronto rallied to beat Detroit on Thursday night for its season-best sixth straight victory. Tulowitzki finished 2-for-4 with a walk and three RBIs. He is batting .338 (22-for-65) with 20 RBIs in 17 games since coming off the disabled list on June 18. Jason Grilli (3-2) pitched one inning for the win. Roberto Osuna worked the ninth for his 18th save. After the Blue Jays loaded the bases against Frank Gunn/AP Photo Justin Wilson (2-2) with two outs in the eighth, TORONTO’S KEVIN PILLAR SLIDES INTO HOME PLATE as Detroit catcher James McCann Alex Wilson came on to awaits the throw home during the sixth inning of the Blue Jays’ 5-4 victory on Thursday in face Tulowitzki but sur- Toronto.

Yankees 5, Indians 4 Cleveland — Didi Gregorius had two hits, including a solo homer, and scored twice for New York. Cleveland, which leads the AL Central, lost its second straight home game after 13 wins in a row at Progressive Field. It had the potential winning run on base with two outs in the ninth, but Tyler Naquin was thrown out on a close play at first. Yankees right-hander Ivan Nova (6-5) stopped a two-game losing streak.

Twins 10, Rangers 1 Arlington, Texas — Max Kepler drove in three runs with a homer and a short sacrifice fly, Tyler Duffey matched a career high with nine strikeouts, and last-place Minnesota again beat ALleading Texas. The Twins, whose 3055 record is the worst in the AL, won for the fifth time in six games. That includes three straight over the Rangers. Minnesota led for good after Eduardo Nunez and Joe Mauer started the game with consecutive hits off Chi Chi Gonzalez (0-2) and both scored. Duffey (5-6) limited Texas to two hits over six innings, but walked four and hit two batters.

National League Mets 9, Nationals 7 New York — Wilmer Flores hit a go-ahead, three-run homer, and New York rallied in the opener of a pivotal fourgame series between the top teams in the NL East. Travis d’Arnaud, Jose Reyes and Asdrubal Cabrera also went deep for New York in a slugfest that featured eight home runs — most in the eightyear history of Citi Field.
