Kansas suing over transgender restroom rules 10 states file lawsuit over federal guidelines Lincoln, Neb. (ap) — Ten states sued the federal government Friday over rules requiring public schools to allow transgender students to use restrooms conforming to their gender identity, joining a dozen other states in the latest fight over LGBT rights.

The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Nebraska and included nine other states: Arkansas, Kansas, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, South Dakota and Wyoming.

The filing comes after 11 states sued in May over the same Obama

North Carolina officials also sued the federal government in May over the same issue. Vast sums of federal funding are at stake: Money could be withheld from public schools that refuse to comply with the federal directive.

Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson said the U.S. Education Department and Justice Department have circumvented established law and the process for changing existing laws.

“It also supersedes local school districts’ authority to address student issues on an individualized, professional and private basis,” Peterson said in a written statement.

Sheahon Zenger made a promise to each other.

“We both agreed that we were willing to do whatever was necessary to make the Junior Olympics a success here, so we could put Lawrence in the position for bigger and better things,” Sanner said.

After the presentations, organizers picked Lawrence.

“And we’ve backed up that statement since day one,” Sanner said.

With just over a year until the event comes to Lawrence on July 23-30, 2017, Sanner, Zenger and others in a local organizing committee have started forming plans.

Topeka — The state of Kansas has added 10,591 more voters to its registration rolls in the last two years, with Democrats seeing the largest growth.

But Wyandotte County, a traditional Democratic stronghold and the third largest county in the state, has lost 7,009 registered voters, most of them Democrats.

Those figures are raising new questions about how hard the Democratic Party is working to maintain its strength there, which could have a direct impact on how competitive the party will be in

the 2016 elections.

Wyandotte County Election Commissioner Bruce Newby said the decline was due in part to routine maintenance of voter registration rolls that involves purging the names of voters who have moved out of the county.

But he also chided both political parties for not doing enough to register new voters.

“We do everything we can to register people, but I don’t see the political activity in our county that used to be here — people in the community going out and giving out voter registration applications,” he said.

Bruce Newby is not related to former Johnson County Election Commissioner Brian Newby, who is now executive director of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission and the defendant in a federal lawsuit involving voter registration in Kansas, Georgia and Alabama.

Bruce Newby was appointed to his job in Wyandotte County by former Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh.

Cheyenne Davis, a field worker for the Kansas Democratic Party, blamed the problem on the state’s new law requiring people to show proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register, a task that she said is more difficult in Wyandotte County than in other parts of the state.

“The problem is that it is so very difficult to register voters in areas with more transient communities,” she said. “There are a lot of housing developments there that cause registration to shift.”

Davis said that as part of her job, she lived in Wyandotte County for eight months in 2015, working full time for the party, attending community and neighborhood events and trying to get people registered.

“The door-to-door method is not as effective for voter registration because still, with the proof of citizenship component, if you ask somebody to go into their home and get that, you have to build the connection first for them to trust you to do something like that, which is why I would meet them to make multiple contacts before we would actually receive the proof of citizenship.”

Newby said his office, like all other county election offices, routinely cleans its registration rolls of voters who have moved out of the county, and those who officials believe have moved out and who haven’t voted in the last two federal election cycles.

By law, he said, whenever officials believe a voter has moved out of the county, they send a letter to that address

asking the voter to confirm whether he or she still lives there. Voters are stricken from the rolls if they acknowledge they’ve moved away, or if they fail to acknowledge and also do not vote in two consecutive federal election cycles.

The decline in registered voters in Wyandotte County has occurred even as the population of the county has been growing, and nearly all of it has been among registered Democrats and unaffiliated voters.

According to figures from the Kansas Secretary of State’s office, there were 8.5 percent fewer voters in Wyandotte County on July 1, 2016, than there were exactly two years earlier.

Just more than half of the decline can be attributed to a loss of registered Democratic voters, and 49 percent is due to a decline in unaffiliated voters.

There are only 25 fewer Republican voters in Wyandotte County than two years ago.

That is the complete opposite of registration trends statewide, where total voter registration has grown 0.6 percent over the same period. Growth in Democratic Party registration accounted for more than half of that growth, while Republicans accounted for a little more than 40 percent.

There was a net decline of 379 people registered as unaffiliated.

Davis said she believes much of that was due to different party rules for voting in the March 5 presidential caucuses.

The Kansas Republican Party required people to be registered as Republicans well before the caucus date, while the Kansas Democratic Party allowed same-day registration and changes of party affiliation at the caucus locations.

In Douglas County, registration has grown by 2,906 voters, or 3.9 percent, over the last two years.

Nearly all of that has been due to growth in Democratic registration and a decline in unaffiliated voters, while Republicans saw an increase of 115 voters, accounting for about 4 percent of the growth.

Economic benefits will be felt “all over northeast Kansas,” Sanner said.

“People read the numbers and say, ‘That’s really big,’” he said. “But they won’t really appreciate the impact of the event until it gets to town.

Then, it will hit them in the face.”

Sanner said he’s been working since 2011 to have Lawrence chosen as the site for the Junior Olympics. He submitted a bid in 2012 but later pulled it after discovering the proposed site, KU’s Memorial Stadium, didn’t meet specifications.

“Fast forward to when Rock Chalk Park was completed, and that’s a game-changer,” he said.

received on plans for the event, organizers will set up areas for team camps at Rock Chalk Park, as well as temporary seating. The site currently holds around 7,000 people, Sanner said, and it needs to seat about 10,000.

Preparing the venue and housing were two parts of what Sanner called a “three-legged stool.”

“The third is confidence,” he said. “Confidence in the local organizing committee’s ability to put it all together and make it work.”

Suit aims to block Plum Island sale Mineola, N.Y. — A lawsuit filed by environmental groups seeks to block the sale of Plum Island, home to the nation’s only animal disease testing laboratory.

The lawsuit was filed Thursday in federal court on Long Island by Save the Sound, a program of the Connecticut Fund for the Environment, and others.

The federal government plans to sell the 840-acre Plum Island, located off the northeastern coast of Long Island, and move the lab to Kansas State University by 2022. In addition to the environmental groups, elected officials in Connecticut and New York have introduced legislation in Congress seeking to block the proposed sale.

No arrests have been made in the case of a 9-month-old girl found in a trash receptacle early Thursday morning at a Lawrence apartment complex, police say.

Just before 2:30 a.m.

Thursday, police received a report that the infant was left in the trash at an apartment complex in the 2500 block of West Sixth Street, said Lawrence Police Sgt. Amy Rhoads. The baby suffered life-threatening injuries and was taken to a Kansas City-area

hospital in serious but stable condition.

The apartments in the complex are owned and managed by Country Club on 6th.

Police did not say precisely where the infant was found, but multiple residents said the apartments all share a centralized dumpster that compacts trash.

Rhoads said police have been in contact with the infant’s parents and detectives are still investigating.

Farm Bureau’s endorsement of opponent spells trouble for U.S. Rep. Huelskamp

T Tribe takes next step in plan for property The Oklahoma-based Delaware Tribe of Indians is taking its next step in crafting development plans for a 90-acre site north of Lawrence.

A Douglas County Natural and Cultural Heritage Grant totaling $67,775 will fund the professional planning process for a site, purchased by a subsidiary of the tribe in 2013. The 90 acres, a longtime sod farm

operated by the Pine family before its sale, is located along the Kansas Turnpike — just northeast of the turnpike’s interchange in North Lawrence.

For the past two years, the Tribal Council and local officials, with the help of a paid facilitator, have discussed ideas for the land. The planning process — an “important next step” — will broaden that discussion to the public, said Douglas County Commissioner

Nancy Thellman.

“There will be more formal planning and a much more public conversation about what they might like to pursue on that property that’s both exciting to them and potentially exciting to the people of Lawrence,” Thellman said Friday.

Ideas for the land so far have been based in agriculture, Thellman said. A news release about the grant says the land is “significant both for its prime farmland soils

and the Delaware cultural history at the site.”

The 90 acres was once part of a Delaware tribe reservation that spanned between Lawrence and Leavenworth from 1830 to 1867. The federal government forced the tribe to an Oklahoma reservation following the Civil War. Thellman said ideas for a working farm have been proposed — one in which

Court dismisses obscenity charge against KC retailer

Topeka — The Kansas Supreme Court on Friday said a novelty store in Johnson County cannot be tried on obscenity charges because the state violated a speedy trial rule that Kansas courts have used for several years.

At the same time, though, the court also said that rule was wrong to begin with and should not apply to any future cases.

Spencer Gifts, located in the Oak Park Mall, was originally charged in

In July 2014, KDOT approved a $143,000 transportation alternatives grant for improvements to the grounds at the depot.

The city and its local partners, the Santa Fe Trail Historical Association, Midland Railway and Kansas Belle Dinner Train, provided a local match for the rest of the funding.

Planned improvements included extending the brick train boarding platform and installing a platform shelter, upgraded exterior lighting, added ADA parking and grounds improvements. l l l

May 2010 with 10 counts of promoting obscenity harmful to minors.

Prosecutors alleged the store was selling sexually explicit toys, lewd clothing, posters of nude women and other items, some of which were displayed in proximity to items geared toward children, such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle merchandise and Sesame Street clothing.

The charges came after a months-long investigation by the Johnson County district attorney’s office.

The Johnson County District Court issued a

summons and ordered the company to appear, but did not require the company to post an appearance bond. But after several years and no further action by the court, the company filed a motion to dismiss the charges, saying the state had violated its own speedy trial statute.

That law says, “If any person charged with a crime and held to answer on an appearance bond shall not be brought to trial within 180 days after arraignment on the charge,” that person is entitled to have the charges dismissed.

The main issue at stake in the case was the exact wording of that statute. It requires two conditions to exist before a defendant is entitled to a dismissal: being charged with a crime and posting an appearance bond. Spencer Gifts had not posted such a bond.

But the district court agreed to dismiss the charges anyway based on a 1988 precedent, City of Elkhart v. Bollacker, which held that the Legislature intended for the statute to apply even in cases in which the defendant did not post a bond, even

decision in March.

Tackett withdrew from KU early in the spring semester, before filing her lawsuit. McClure completed the spring semester and, through family, has said she won’t return.

The women’s lawsuits say KU took too long to investigate and did not do enough to protect them from intimidation by the football player and retaliation by their rowing coach, who they accuse of unfairly cutting them out of team activities and making inappropriate comments.

KU’s motion to dismiss the Jane Doe 7 lawsuit

disputes those claims.

Regarding intimidation by the football player, KU attorneys wrote that the woman claimed to have gotten a Snapchat message from the man “at some unspecified time in October.”

“The petition fails to provide any facts about what this ‘snapchat’ entails, but it makes the conclusory allegation that it occurred after she went to IOA and was ‘an intent to intimidate her,’” the motion says. “Other than this unspecified ‘snapchat,’ plaintiff’s petition alleges no other contact — not one — with John Doe G

discrimination in education, including sexual harassment and sexual violence.

KU’s key arguments are similar to those in the university’s pending motion to dismiss a separate but related Title IX lawsuit brought by another former rower, Daisy Tackett, who said the same football player raped her at Jayhawker Towers apartments in 2014.

Jane Doe 7 — who has

though the plain language of the statute says otherwise.

That case has been binding precedent on Kansas courts for 28 years, and attorneys for Spencer Gifts relied on it when filing their motion to dismiss the charges.

On appeal, the Johnson County district attorney’s office and Attorney General Derek Schmidt’s office argued that the Bollacker decision should be overturned because it goes against a plain reading of the statute.

In a unanimous opinion, the Supreme Court

publicly identified herself as Sarah McClure — said in her lawsuit that the man sexually assaulted her in August 2015, also at Jayhawker Towers.

The lawsuits name the football player only as “John Doe G.” Both women reported the incidents to KU’s Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access (IOA) in October 2015. McClure also filed a report with the KU Office of Public Safety, but the man was not criminally charged. Following IOA’s investigation, KU expelled the man and notified the women of that

essentially agreed with both sides, upholding the lower court’s decision to dismiss the charges because that decision was based on binding precedent at the time, but also overturning the Bollacker decision.

That means that in any future case, defendants who have not been ordered to post a bond will no longer be protected by the state’s speedy trial statute.

after her report to IOA.” KU’s motion also criticizes the timing of the woman’s lawsuit, filed in April after she was notified the man was expelled, and calls its claims against KU and the rowing coach vague.

“Plaintiff appears to have purposefully omitted known details of what allegedly happened to her required to establish severe, pervasive, and objectively unreasonably harassment; the investigation process; and the university’s communications with her about that process,” the motion says.

Gus Cobb, bartender, Lawrence “‘The Empire Strikes Back.’

The Battle of Hoth is the most epic battle they did in the original trilogy.”

“Based on the vague facts included in the petition, the petition fails to state a claim that KU was deliberately indifferent.”

Both Tackett and McClure, along with their parents, also are plaintiffs in a third related lawsuit against KU. That suit, filed under the Kansas Consumer Protection Act, accuses KU of misleading the public by representing campus housing as safe and is pending in Douglas County District Court.

Dear Annie: I’m married to a wonderful man. We have been together for four years now and just finished moving from Arizona to Washington for work. I’m from the Northwest originally, so my family is thrilled that we’ll be closer, especially as we start thinking about expanding our family.

My husband’s family is from the Northeast, so we don’t get to see his parents so much. We try to spend at least two weeks each year with his parents, though — one week back east around the holidays, one week out west during the summer.

The problem is that though the time we spend together is minimal, my fatherin-law is so hard to talk with. He seems

Dear Annie

to be kind of socially unaware, and his family is used to this. As a newcomer, I’m still having trouble with it. Conversations with him veer into fields where he is comfortable and rarely leave those areas. I just don’t know how much more I can hear about biochemistry or basketball when I have nothing to contribute with my background in architecture and having watched a few

Critters meet celebrities on ‘Hello World’ Welcome to the jungle! “Hello World” (7 p.m., Discovery, TV-PG) merges music videos and nature footage, celebrating critters and celebrities alike.

Each half-hour episode features a different musical artist performing well-known songs as a backdrop to scenes of sea turtles, jumping spiders, rhinos and hawks as they go about their daily routine against natural splendor.

“Hello World” begins with a song by Usher. A segment featuring Christina Aguilera (7:30 p.m., TV-PG) follows. Future installments, airing back-to-back over the next three weeks, will showcase the music of Steven Tyler, Ellie Goulding, Joan Jett and Dave Matthews.

Where were these artists when “Meerkat Manor” needed them?

Nickelodeon introduces another live-action sitcom this weekend. Theodore Barnes and DeVion Harris star as polar-opposite siblings Sam and Tyler Duda in “Legendary Dudas” (8 p.m.). Born a year apart, they inhabit different social orbits until awkward 11-year-old Sam skips a grade and invades his much more popular brother’s seventh-grade clique. Shot in a single-camera style, “Dudas” maintains the candy-colored frantic fantasy approach of most comedies aimed at a tween audience.

“Princess Diana: Behind Closed Doors” (8 p.m., Reelz) continues the network’s weeklong look at the departed royal.

Tonight’s other highlights

Regional coverage of Major

League Baseball (6 p.m., Fox).

On two helpings of “Angel From Hell” (CBS): dating advice (7 p.m., TV-PG), a little push (7:30 p.m., TV-14).

The U.S. Olympic Trials (7 p.m., NBC) showcase track and field.

A young woman’s efforts to clear her brother’s name reveal the dark side of their hometown in the 2016 shocker “Hidden Truth” (7 p.m., Lifetime).

A wrong decision has consequences on “20/20: In an Instant” (8 p.m., ABC).

The team opens a spacious new facility on the second season finale of “Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet” (8 p.m., Animal Planet, TV-PG).

Claire explains her story to her present-day daughter while the Battle of Culloden consumes Jamie’s 18th-century thoughts on the second season finale of “Outlander” (8 p.m., Starz, TV-MA).

Cullen lightens his load on “Hell on Wheels” (8 p.m., AMC, TV-14).

“The American West” (9 p.m., AMC, TV-14) recalls Billy the Kid, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse and Wyatt Earp.

Trail Blazers games in my life.

I’d love to get to know him more, but when I try to ask him questions or tell him about my life, he seems uninterested.

It seems I either have my ear talked off or am talking to a brick wall. When I mention this to my husband, he just tells me that’s how his dad is. My motherin-law has learned to live with this for 40 years, but I can’t manage a week. Help? — Desperate Daughterin-Law Dear Desperate: Your best option is to enlist your husband for help. Tell him you love his dad — compliment his great attributes — but let him know that while he’s used to the way his dad is, you’re not.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, July 9: This year you will deal with changing attitudes in your immediate circle. You have not changed, they have, yet you must deal with many new opinions. Don’t get uptight or feel challenged, just be open-minded. If you are single, you could meet someone quite controlling who could be hard for you to relate to. Is it worth it? If you are attached, your partner might be unusually demanding. Try to understand what is going on. Be compassionate, but don’t play into this behavior.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) The power you feel that stems from within you comes from the knowledge that you give 100 percent. Tonight: Wind down.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Others will see you perform to the max. Tap into your increasing resourcefulness.

Tonight: All smiles.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might not know which way to go or how to handle a personal matter. Tonight: Invite some friends over.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Keep asking yourself questions about your choices.

Reach out to a close friend. Tonight: Hang out.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might feel as if you

Try working out a system. Maybe you could come up with a secret hand signal to use when your father-inlaw has you cornered in conversation. Hubby can swoop in to the rescue.

At the end of the day, in-laws are extensions of your partner, and your love for your husband means accepting his parents as they are. But it doesn’t mean you have to be best friends with your father-in-law or buy matching Trail Blazers jerseys.

— Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

jacquelinebigar.com

can’t find the right solution, yet you know there is one. Tonight: Count your change.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A change of plans could be upsetting, but it likely is for the better. Tonight: Love the moment!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Notice what is going on behind the scenes. You might not be revealing your thoughts.

Tonight: Not to be found.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might opt to get into a fun activity. You will be unusually focused. Tonight: Drop in on a friendly get-together.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to visit with a loved one. Your interaction will prove to be beneficial. Tonight: Out and about.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Be willing to take a detour with your plans and do something unusual. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You enjoy relating on an individual level. Today is no exception. Tonight: Dinner out.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be deferring to someone else. Be willing to make an adjustment and remain flexible. Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

There’s no escaping America’s madness “What sort of people are we, we Americans? … Today, we are the most frightening people on this planet.”

— Historian Arthur Schlesinger As these words are written, I am on a cruise ship pulling into the harbor of the Greek island of Crete. All around me, the morning sparkles. The water is placid, the sky is clear and pale blue, our ship is embraced by gently sloping hills dotted with houses and shops.

And I just turned on the television.

And I just heard about Dallas.

I have made it a point to keep the news at something of a distance these last two weeks of travel, filling my days instead with shell craters on a beach in Normandy, a shopping square in Barcelona, the ghostly remains of Pompeii. So while I know that two African-American men were killed by police under dubious circumstances in Louisiana and Minnesota a couple days ago, I haven’t seen the videos, haven’t checked too deeply into the circumstances.

I’m off the clock now. I wanted to keep the horror at arm’s length.

But distance is an illusion, isn’t it? That’s what I just learned when I made the mistake of turning on the television.

Indeed, sitting here in this picturesque place on this peaceful morning far away, it feels as if I can see the madness of my country even more clearly than usual.

Two more black men shot down for no good reason in a country that still insists — with righteous indignation, yet —

Leonard Pitts Jr.

“

lpitts@miamiherald.com

There is a sickness afoot in our country, my friends, a putrefaction of the soul, a rottenness in the spirit.”

upon equating black men with danger.

That’s madness.

Last night, I called my sons and grandson to tell them I love them, explain to them yet again that they terrorize people simply by being and plead with them to be careful. I am required to fear what might happen to my children when they encounter those who are supposed to serve and protect them.

That’s madness.

Eleven police officers shot by sniper fire, five fatally, while guarding a peaceful demonstration against police brutality.

That’s madness.

The usual loud voices of acrimony and confusion are already using this act of despicable evil to delegitimize legitimate protest by conflating it with terrorism, asking us to believe that speaking out against bad cops is the same as shooting cops indiscriminately.

That is madness.

And then, there was this coda: A black man, a “person of

interest” turns himself in to police after carrying an AR-15 rifle through the protest in downtown Dallas.

An AR-15.

Through downtown Dallas.

As police are dealing with an active shooter.

Apparently, the guy was not guilty of a crime, but he is certainly guilty of the worst judgment imaginable — and lucky to be alive. But then, in carrying that war weapon on a city street, he was only exercising his legal right under Texas law.

The NRA calls that freedom.

But make no mistake: It, too, is madness.

America has gone mad before.

The quote at the top is from one such period, 1968. Hundreds of urban riots had wracked the country, the war in Vietnam was uselessly grinding up lives, recent years had seen the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Medgar Evers and Malcolm X. Now, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy had just been murdered within two months of one another And many people were wondering, as Arthur Schlesinger was, about America and its character, about what kind of country — and people — we were. Said New York Mayor John Lindsay, “This is a drifting, angry America that needs to find its way again.”

His words, like Schlesinger’s, feel freshly relevant to this era, almost 50 years down the line.

There is a sickness afoot in our country, my friends, a putrefaction of the soul, a rottenness in the spirit. Consider our

politics. Consider the way we talk about one another — and to one another. Consider those two dead black men. Consider those five massacred cops.

Deny it if you can. I sure can’t. Something is wrong with us. And I don’t mind telling you that I fear for my country.

On the night Martin Luther King died, two months almost to the day before he himself would be shot down in a hotel kitchen, Bobby Kennedy faced a grief-stricken, largely African-American crowd in Indianapolis and with extemporaneous eloquence, prescribed a cure for the sickness he saw.

“My favorite poet,” he told them, “was Aeschylus. And he once wrote, ‘Even in our sleep, pain which cannot beget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.’ What we need in the United States is not division. What we need in the United States is not hatred. What we need in the United States is not violence and lawlessness but is love and wisdom and compassion toward one another and a feeling of justice toward those who still suffer in our country, whether they be white or whether they be black.”

Those words feel hopelessly idealistic, impossibly innocent and yet, wise, grace-filled and … right for the raw pain of this moment I commend them to all our wounded spirits on this shining morning from a peaceful place that, as it turns out, is not nearly far enough away.

PUBLIC FORUM

Fireworks complaint To the editor: My family and I moved to Lawrence three years ago during the July 4th holiday. It was so very quiet that weekend with only the sound of a firecracker in the distance from time to time. Last year was a different story. Very loud for a town with a no fireworks law. This July 4th was the night of all nights since we have been residents. We love Lawrence and are so happy we moved here. However, someone or a lot of people in our neighborhood did not understand the city law on fireworks! Just down the street from us, it sounded like World War III had broken out! I do not mean to rain on their parade, but we have a law. Correct?

In our home we were dealing with a very anxious dog. We could not even take our dog outside. He refused and somehow held back his urine until morning.

Last, but not least, my husband is a veteran of the Vietnam War. He returned home safely, but returned with the scars of post-traumatic stress disorder. July 4th did NOT help him at all!

Could we have called the police? Yes. An article in the Journal-World stated a police officer had to witness someone lighting the fuse of a firework. Now, is that not a bit ridiculous? Perhaps what had been written in the paper was more than a challenge for some.

I do plan to attend the next City Commission meeting to voice my concerns.

Jeannine A. Wyatt, Lawrence

Beyond reason To the editor: Like so many others in this state, I have found myself embarrassed with the results of the “conservative experiment” brought about by Gov. Brownback. We have long since left the realm of openminded trial and entered a period of closed-minded stagnation. To watch Kansas continually fail on budget projections from month to month in national headlines is painful.

At the helm is a governor who appears at this point to be averse to reversing course on his own ill-fated policies, instead choosing to blame outside forces for

the state’s troubles. This might fly if Kansas weren’t so clearly alone on the bottom rung of progress. Recognizing where compromise and reason come into play should be the strongest of traits in any politician.

Today, I read that as Kansas broadens its open-carry law to include employees in government offices on July 1, Brownback has also vetoed provisions to help the low-income mentally ill in the state.

Isn’t one of the conservative talking points we have grown accustomed to that “guns are not the problem, people (mental health) are the problem?”

This perpetual spiral of following political rhetoric above reason and analysis has made Kansas the unfortunate guinea pig for the conservative utopia.

Thomas Henderson, Lawrence

More violence To the editor: Alton Sterling. Philando Castile. How many useless deaths will it take before the killing ends? Despite protests following Trayvon Martin’s killer ending up with a slap on the hand, and then Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner, the list goes on and on, the killings persist. All people of color murdered by a police force with no consequences, no convictions.

Until communities take control of the actions of the officers, we will probably see more of the same. The crisis center for mental health-related altercations is a good step forward, but we need more than that. We need to speak up for a police review board consisting of community members as well as city officials, since the prosecutors generally are linked with the police force. We need community policing, with officers walking the streets and interacting with people in neighborhoods. We need to demand accountability and we need police officers to keep us safe, and to stop the murders.

In light of the horrific deaths and injuries of 12 police officers in Dallas, we need to note that violence only breeds more violence. The peaceful gathering in Dallas was interrupted by a lawless, ruthless person or people, not associated with the demonstration. Community control of police remains a worthwhile goal.

Barbara Johnston, Baldwin City

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for July 9, 1916: “Now that the taxes have been paid the roads in the vicinity of Lawrence will be years dragged and put in shape again. A recent ago statute prevented the contracting for IN 1916 work on the roads unless there was sufficient money laid by to cover the bills.

Since the first of the month things have been put in shape so that work should start immediately. The problem of upkeep of the roads in the county has been a big one this spring. Heavy traffic following rains has put the roads in bad shape and numerous holes prevent almost every road from being classed as good. The Golden Belt route is in anything but good shape in Douglas county and this will be one of the first ones worked upon.”

Eureka (ap) — The National Weather Service says two tornadoes ripped through southeast Kansas late Thursday, causing widespread damage in a small town, but no injuries were reported.

The National Weather Service said Friday preliminary information shows that an EF2 tornado hit Eureka, a town of roughly 2,600 residents east of Wichita. The tornado damaged about 50 homes and businesses, including the Eureka Nursing Center.

The weather service also says the early data shows that another EF3

tornado hit northwest of Eureka late Thursday.

Residents of the nursing home took shelter in the facility and were likely to be moved to a different facility on Friday.

Levi Vinson, the Greenwood County emergency management director, said everyone has been accounted for, but crews were still “checking on some people.”

He says the weather service alerted Eureka’s residents to the incoming storm at least 15 minutes before the tornado hit.

“We were notified and we sounded the emergency alert outdoor warning

sirens,” Vinson said. “The leeway they provided us, I think, is what benefited us on the lack of injuries.”

Kelly Johnson, a nurse who works at the nursing center, drove from her home in Wichita to Eureka after hearing reports of the storm. She climbed over debris to enter one of the facility’s hallways, where she visited some residents.

“I just checked on one of the residents who is 100 years old,” Johnson said.

“She was sleeping. People always said that Eureka is in a valley, so it wouldn’t get hit by a tornado. When I heard, I had to come.”

Shown is today’s weather. Temperatures are today’s highs and tonight’s lows.

DALLAS Police are uncovering clues, including bomb-making materials, that show the 25-yearold Army veteran who went on a shooting rampage killing five police officers downtown carefully plotted his ambush.

Authorities discovered ballistic vests, rifles, ammunition and a journal detailing combat tactics Friday while searching the home of Micah Xavier Johnson in the Dallas suburb of Mesquite, the

Dallas Police Department said Friday.

Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings described the gunman as the lone attacker in the assault late Thursday on police marshaling demonstrators peacefully protesting recent police-involved shootings of African-American men in Louisiana and Minnesota. Seven other officers and two civilians also were wounded.

Police initially reported that at least two snipers were involved in the attack, but Rawlings said investigators later determined Johnson fired from different levels, some elevated above the v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

To a nation already approaching something like a nervous breakdown from a confluence of race, violence and social media, here’s a nightmare from the darkest corner of the American attic: a Texas sniper, a twisted hatred, a slaughter of innocents.

Yet there’s at least one big difference between Micah Xavier Johnson, accused of killing five cops Thursday night in Dallas, and Charles Whitman, who in 1966 opened fire from a tower at the University of Texas at Austin, and Lee Harvey Oswald, who three years earlier assassinated President Kennedy.

The motives of Whitman and Oswald remain murky to this day.

But who can watch the cellphone video of a black Minnesota man shot by a white policeman at a traffic stop, or of another black man shot in Louisiana after being pinned to the pavement by two white officers, and not understand the urge to retaliate? Especially following death after death of black men at the hands of white officers who are almost always exonerated?

Smoke rises from Charles Whitman's gun as he fires from the tower of the University of Texas administration building on Aug. 1, 1966.

Navy lowers the medal count for SEAL Chris Kyle Probe: He overstated the commendations Tom Vanden Brook @tvandenbrook USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, the late famed “American Sniper,” overstated the number of medals he was awarded for heroism, according to a Navy investigation released Friday.

The Navy personnel form that Kyle signed and initialed when he left the Navy in 2009 credited him with two Silver Star and six

Bronze Star medals with “V” device for valor, according to the document. Kyle, whose best-selling book American Sniper was later made into a Hollywood blockbuster, wrote that he had been awarded two Silver Stars and five Bronze Stars. He was killed in 2013 by a veteran he had mentored.

However, the Navy’s investigation of Kyle’s record, which began in 2012, determined that Kyle had commendations for one Silver Star and four Bronze Star medals with “V” devices. The service issued a revised form, known as the DD 214, on June 14. The Silver Star is the military’s third-

highest award; the Medal of Honor and Service Cross are the first and second.

Kyle had made other, unverifiable claims, including his account of shooting dozens of rioters in New Orleans in the chaos that followed Hurricane Katrina.

He also wrote that he had punched a man later identified as Jesse Ventura, the former Minnesota governor. A jury awarded Ventura $1.8 million in a defamation lawsuit against Kyle’s estate.

“After thoroughly reviewing all available records, the Navy determined an error was made in the issuance of Chief Petty Officer Chris Kyle’s form DD214,” Ensign Marc Rockwellpate, a Navy spokesman, said in a statement.

“Specifically, the DD 214 did not

accurately reflect the decorations and awards to which Kyle was officially entitled.

After notifying his family of the error, the Navy issued a corrected copy of the DD 214, which accurately reflects Kyle’s years of honorable and extraordinary Navy service.”

It is unclear who made the original error, and it appears to be a clerical mistake that was not corrected by Kyle or other Navy officials. The Navy is automating its personnel record system to prevent such errors.

Kyle’s original form had other errors, including the omission of his Navy expert rifle medal.

U.S. police deaths up 44% from last year Gregg Zoroya @greggzoroya USA TODAY

The number of police officers shot and killed in the U.S. is 44% higher than at this time last year following the Dallas ambush Thursday night that left five officers dead, according to data from the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.

The deaths of four Dallas police officers and one Dallas transit officer from sniper fire during a protest in the city Thursday raised the national total of firearm deaths among police to 26. This compares with 18 at this point in 2015, said Nick Breul, director of research for the fund in Washington, D.C. Dallas police officers face protesters on the corner of Ross Avenue and Griffin Street in downtown on Thursday.

Breul said it was also the latest of 11 ambushes of officers so far this year, already outpacing the eight ambushes that occurred last year.

“That’s certainly a concern for us. It’s troubling and it’s something that we watch,” Breul, a former Washington, D.C., police officer, said about the shootings.

“It’s really an assassination.

You’re taking advantage of an officer and you’re ensuring that you’re able to kill them through them either being vulnerable or through a complete surprise attack.”

Breul said the last major ambush targeting police occurred at a coffee shop in Lakewood, Wash. on Nov. 29, 2009, when a gunman walked in and opened fire on four officers working on their laptop computers preparing for their work shifts.

All four were killed. The gunman died two days later in a shootout with police.

Forty-one officers were killed with guns last year.

The largest annual number of police officers shot and killed in the past ten years was 70 in 2007, according to the memorial fund website.

Rawlings said individuals initially detained after the shooting — who police first characterized as possible suspects — were later determined to be fleeing protesters who were either armed or carrying ammunition gear.

Johnson, who didn’t have a criminal record, served six years in the U.S. Army Reserve, including an eight-month tour in Afghanistan, opened fire late Thursday on police marshaling demonstrators peacefully protesting recent police-involved shootings of African-American men in Louisiana and Minnesota.

As shots range out, and several police officers went down, protesters and bystanders scrambled or fell to the pavement. Two civilians were also wounded in the melee.

The gunman was eventually chased into a building parking lot where negotiators talked to him for almost an hour, Dallas Police Chief David Brown said.

“The suspect said he was upset about Black Lives Matter,” Brown said, referring to the grass-roots activist group. “He said he was upset about the recent police shootings. He said he was upset at white people. He said he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.”

Brown said the suspect was not affiliated with any other groups “and stated that he did this alone.”

After talks broke down, the heavily armed gunman was killed by police using a robot-controlled explosive device, Brown said. A law enforcement official told USA TODAY that a rifle and a handgun were recovered from the scene where Johnson died.

A Dallas police officer covers his face as he stands with others outside the ER at Baylor University Medical Center.

“All I know is this must stop, this divisiveness must stop, this divisiveness between our police and our citizens,” he added.

Brown said the ambush was highly organized, indicating the shooter probably knew the march route and “triangulated” the targets from “an elevated position.”

Richard Adams, a bystander, 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,” he told WFAA-TV. “And then, maybe I was a half a block away, calming down a little bit when we heard it again. ...

“We continue to stand with the families of these officers and pray with them, as well as we stand with the families of Alton Sterling and Philando in Minnesota,” the 27-year-old activist said.

Alton Sterling, who is black, was killed by two police offices outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge, La., earlier this week, and Philandro Castile, also black, was shot by a police officer during a traffic stop near St. Paul, Minn., the next day.

Their killings prompted the Dallas protest march.

‘VICIOUS, CALCULATED AND DESPICABLE ATTACK’

President Obama, in Poland for a NATO summit, called the shootings “a vicious, calculated and despicable attack on law enforcement.” He told reporters that anyone involved “in these senseless murders will be held fully accountable, justice will be done.” He said he’ll visit Dallas next week.

In emotional remarks at an afternoon prayer service attended by thousands, Rawlings said the community must “attack” racial issues “head on.”

“Can we speak against the actions of a relatively few officers who blemish the reputation of their high calling at the same time, support and defend the 99% of officers who do their job professionally, honestly and bravely?” he asked.

“I think we can and I think we must,” Rawlings said.

For those of a certain age, it seems like a madness reminiscent of the ’60s. Indeed, when Rep. G.K. Butterfield, chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, warns of “a long hot summer” if something doesn’t change, he evokes memories of that decade’s urban race riots.

Gregory Thomas, head of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, doesn’t have to go back that far. “When I woke up this morning,” he said on CNN, “it felt like 9/11.”

Al Smith lowers the flags at the Houston Police Memorial on Friday.

“This has been a long week for our country,” said House Speaker Paul Ryan, in the week's understatement.

So often, the motive in mass shootings is mixed or unclear.

You can blame guns or mania or racism or ideology for the violence in Dallas and elsewhere.

But the fact remains Americans have become expert at wreaking on ourselves the havoc that the Islamic State and al-Qaeda wish for us.

After Dallas there’ll be a lot of talk about healing divisions. President Obama has cited Martin Luther King’s reminder at the end of the Selma to Montgomery civil rights march in 1965: “Even though the arc of the moral universe is long, it bends toward justice.”

Today, as the nation both mourns and seethes, to believe that takes something else close to the president’s heart: the audacity of hope.

Obama, EU leaders downplay impact of Brexit at NATO Summit Officials say fears that loss of Britain in the political bloc will damage continent security have been misplaced

Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

WARSAW President Obama and leaders of the European Union tried Friday to put to rest any concerns that the United Kingdom’s Brexit referendum would lead to further disintegration in Europe as they kicked off a twoday summit of NATO leaders.

Obama said the summit comes “at a critical moment for the European Union,” with some suggesting that “the entire edifice of European security and prosperity is crumbling.”

Those concerns, Obama said, are misplaced and hyperbolic.

European Commission President Donald Tusk, after meeting with Obama before the NATO Summit, said the Brexit vote will

not result in continued unraveling. “To all our opponents on the inside and out, who are hoping for a sequel to Brexit, I want to say loud and clear: You won’t see on the screen the words, ‘To be continued,’ ” Tusk said.

The European Union and NATO are separate organizations, but with overlapping memberships and often similar aims. As leaders of NATO meet in Warsaw to coordinate military strategy, the question of the economic and political consequences of Brexit have become intertwined with the continent’s security.

“The United States, NATO and the European Union are central pillars of the global order,” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said. “We complement each other and together provide peace and stability in Europe, our neighborhood and

beyond. Our combined strengths remains formidable, but still, we can work more closely together.”

Obama said NATO and the EU are working on parallel tracks throughout the world: As NATO battles the Islamic State, the EU is working to shore up the Iraqi economy. As NATO troops remain in Afghanistan to train local forces and root out the Taliban, the EU is providing development assistance.

And as NATO moves to rotate more troops into eastern Europe to counter Russian provocations in the region, EU sanctions continue to punish Moscow for Russian occupation of Crimea.

But there’s more to be done, Obama said: “We believe NATO can do more to support EU naval operations in the Mediterranean and Aegean seas to prevent the exploitation of migrants.”

Obama said he’s confident that Brexit negotiations will be orderly and smooth. “Nobody has an interest in protracted, adversarial negotiations. Everybody has an interest in minimizing any disruptions.”

Despite the British withdrawal, Obama said, “We cannot lose sight of the extraordinary achievement that European integration continues to be.”

But he also said government leaders need to do more to acknowledge the economic uncertainty that’s fueling isolationist political movements in the Western world.

“We also agree that on both sides of the Atlantic, we have to address the economic frustrations and anxieties of many of our people, feelings that undoubtedly contributed to the Brexit vote,” he said.

IN BRIEF IRAQIS MOURN 37 KILLED IN ISIS TERROR ATTACK

Iraqis on Friday mourned the victims of yet another terror attack, and some said they won’t let the Islamic State ignite a new conflict between Sunni and Shiite Muslims.

At least 37 people were killed and more than 62 wounded when suicide bombers and gunmen attacked a Shiite shrine 50 miles north of Baghdad, Iraqi police said.

Islamic State militants, who are Sunnis, “are hitting religious places to arouse the anger of Shiites and Sunnis again. But they will fail,” shopkeeper Mahmoud Salim said.

Authorities say a man who opened fire on a Tennessee highway targeted police officers and others because he was troubled by incidents involving black people and law enforcement officers, according to the Associated Press.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says initial conversations with the suspect, identified as Lakeem Keon Scott, revealed he was troubled by incidents

across the U.S. The TBI says the suspect is black; the shooting victims are all white.

Investigators say Scott killed one person and wounded three others, including a police officer.

The suspect was shot by the officers and is being treated at a hospital.

U.S. EXPELS 2 RUSSIANS AFTER DIPLOMAT ATTACKED

The State Department says the U.S. has expelled two Russian officials in response to an attack on an American diplomat by a Russian policeman in Moscow last month, the AP reported.

State Department spokesman John Kirby didn’t immediately provide additional information about the U.S. move to kick out the Russians.

Kirby says the American was attacked on June 6 by a Russian guard outside the U.S. Embassy compound, according to the AP. Kirby says the attack was “unprovoked and it endangered the safety of our employee.”

The Russian Foreign Ministry claims the American was a CIA agent and that he refused to provide his identification documents, the AP reported. Moscow says the policeman was fulfilling his duty defending the embassy.

Japan’s pacifist charter at stake in Sunday’s voting Coalition of Prime Minister Abe, who wants a constitution change, likely to win a majority Kirk Spitzer USA TODAY

LOCKDOWN ON THE HILL

ALEX WONG , GETTY IMAGES

A heavily armed U.S. Capitol Police officer stands guard in a basement hallway of the Capitol building in Washington during a brief lockdown Friday to search for a possibly armed person.

TOKYO A major change in Japan’s post-World War II pacifist charter will be at stake Sunday, when voters go to the polls in a key parliamentary election.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s ruling coalition is expected to win more than half of the 121 seats up for grabs in the House of Councillors election. That would likely be enough to secure a two-thirds majority in both houses of Japan’s National Diet, the necessary threshold for amending the constitution.

Revising the constitution is a long-cherished goal of Japan’s conservatives, who view the document as an unwelcome legacy of the post-war occupation by victorious American forces, who remain on Japanese soil. A particular source of ire is Article 9, which “renounces” Japan’s

right to go to war. Currently Japan can use its military only as a defense against attacks.

The constitution was adopted in 1946, a year after Japan’s unconditional surrender, and enacted in 1947. It has not been changed since.

Abe has made no secret of his desire to revise the charter. His first term as prime minister in 2006-07 was cut short, in part, because of popular dissatisfaction with his attempts to ram through constitutional changes.

In the current campaign, which began last month, Abe has barely mentioned the issue, focusing instead on economic and social issues. A recent poll by the mainstream Mainichi Shimbun newspaper found 45% of respondents were opposed to amending the constitution, compared to 36% in favor.

Abe’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party and its coalition partner, the Komeito Party, are expected

to sweep the vote Sunday. Polls predicting a turnout of only about 50% attest to widespread voter apathy.

The LDP and Komeito currently hold more than two-thirds of the seats in the House of Representatives, the lower chamber.

A two-thirds “super majority” in the upper house appears in the cards as well. A poll this week by the conservative Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper shows the ruling coalition is likely to win at least a majority of 121 seats contested Sunday. Still, that is not enough to ensure a constitutional change.

Amending the constitution requires a national referendum.

“It would be a mistake for Abe to think that a victory (Sunday) will be a ringing endorsement,” said Tobias Harris, a Japan specialist with Teneo Intelligence in Washington, D.C. During an online debate earlier this year, Abe said he intended to organize a constitutional commission after the upper house vote. A full debate on the issue could be held during a special Diet session this fall.

It’s been an unprecedented public expression of support for an industry that has been cautious about wading into any sensitive, racially charged issue.

Until this week, the industry, and the people who work in it, had for years been criticized for largely ignoring police killings of African-Americans.

Tech is wrestling with a woeful lack of African-Americans in

its workforce and a corporate culture unwelcoming to underrepresented minorities.

Minorities continue to be underrepresented in workforces at major tech companies. For all its good works, Google last week reported it had made scant progress, with Hispanics making up 3% of the work force and African-Americans 2%.

Tech broke its silence on political and social issues the past year when Cook, Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff and others criticized anti-LGBT laws in Georgia, Mississippi and North Carolina. The question remains whether tech, which has increasingly made a racial diversity push public and has pulled business over LGBTQ issues, will take strong actions.

Shervin Pishevar, an influential tech investor who has backed Uber, has proposed a FaceTime-like mobile app for police officers and citizens to exchange information such as driver’s license and registration, instead of face to face, to reduce tensions.

Two-year lab ban for Theranos founder Blood-testing probe leads to sanctions Brett Molina @brettmolina23 USA TODAY

Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes has been banned for two years from owning or operating a lab following an investigation into the health tech start-up’s bloodtesting methods.

The company announced the sanctions from the Centers for

Medicare & Medicaid Services late Thursday.

The sanctions were handed down following a review of Theranos’ lab in Newark, Calif.

The ban, as well as the license revocation, goes into effect in 60 days.

Theranos’ lab will also have its license revoked by CMS and must pay a financial penalty.

“While we are disappointed by CMS’ decision, we take these matters very seriously and are committed to fully resolving all outstanding issues with CMS and to demonstrating our dedication

MCDONALD’S EXPECTS $235M IN REFRANCHISING COSTS McDonald’s expects to incur a $235 million charge in the second quarter related to its efforts to refranchise 4,000 restaurants by the end of 2018 and move its headquarters. The charge will result in a 20-cent-per-share hit on an after-tax basis on the company’s earnings, McDonald’s said Thursday. Part of the charge is related to McDonald’s plans to move its headquarters from Oak Brook, Ill., to downtown Chicago by the spring of 2018. Its shares on Friday were little changed, closing at $121.31, up 0.3%.

LOW GAS PRICES SIDELINE HONDA CR-Z HYBRID Honda will discontinue U.S. sales of the CR-Z hybrid, a two-seat car that petered out amid rockbottom gas prices. The Japanese automaker confirmed on Friday that it will phase out the 6-yearold coupe some time this year.

The company will replace it with a two-motor hybrid version of the 2017 Accord sedan.

Jobs report undercuts fears of recession

The ban by CMS is the latest blow to Theranos, whose bloodtesting practices have been questioned in recent months.

The Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission are conducting separate investigations into Theranos’ practices.

In May, the company was hit with a class-action lawsuit from consumers.

Questions about Theranos’ revolutionary blood-testing techniques started to surface last fall after a Wall Street Journal report uncovered flaws in its testing.

@adamshell USA TODAY

NEW YORK After stalling briefly, the U.S. job-creation engine is again revving into high gear, rejuvenating Wall Street and sending stocks close to record highs.

The U.S. economy created 287,000 new jobs in June, which was 100,000 more than economists had forecast and the best monthly gain since October 2015.

That is about as good a news headline as Wall Street could ask for after May’s gloomy jobs report and all the Brexit-related doom-and-gloom the past few weeks that put a scare into investors.

“It’s a very good number,” says Liz Ann Sonders, chief investment strategist at Charles Schwab.

Adds Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.com: “The nation’s job market got its groove back in June.”

The blowout June jobs number couldn’t come at a better time for Wall Street. The rebound in employment gains helps debunk imminent recession fears. Instead, it sends the positive message that the job market remains strong despite headwinds at home and abroad. It also reinforces the U.S. economy’s resiliency and suggests the economy remains reasonably stable.

The result: The market benchmark Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 32.00 points, or 1.5%, to 2129.90 Friday, stopping just shy of its record closing high of 2130.82 set May 21.

The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 251 points, or 1.4%, to 18,147 for its highest level since May 2015.

The blue-chip index rose for the sixth day out of the last eight sessions and has more than recovered from its 870.83-point drop it experienced in the two days after the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union.

287,000 JOBS ADDED The U.S. labor market gained 287,000 jobs in June while the unemployment rate rose to 4.9% from May. Jobs added: 300,000

Sonders says in the current environment, which has been characterized by market uncertainty and investor anxiety, “good news is good news.”

By that she means that a strong data point won’t be viewed as a bad thing as there are still enough uncertainties in the world related to Britain’s vote to exit the EU and sub-par global growth to keep investors from having a heart attack over the Federal Reserve coming in and hiking interest rates sooner than expected based on good news.

Instead, while the strong jobs number in June — and a potential string of strong employment reports in coming months – could put a Fed rate hike back on the table for later in the year, most likely in December after the presidential election, the Fed is still likely to go slow with any rate increases and keep rates lower for longer.

“People that were ruling out even one rate hike this year, might have to back down” following the strong June reading on job creation, Sonders says.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index narrowly missed setting a closing high Friday as a stronger-than-expected jobs report sparked a monster rally and Wall Street finally recouped all of its Brexit-related losses.

Extensive data available when a firm is listed Q: Is this company publicly traded?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: It’s good to know if a company’s shares trade in the hands of the public.

It’s usually a straightforward process to find out.

There are many reasons why you might want to know whether a company is publicly traded. If you’re interviewing for a job, a company that is public will likely provide much more financial information for you to look up. You might also want to know if a company is publicly traded if you want to invest in it.

Online quotation pages of most financial web sites will usually quickly tell you if a company is public or not. USA TODAY’s Money section at money.usatoday.com, for instance, will allow you to enter the name of a company and will give you the company’s ticker symbol and financial information if it’s publicly traded.

If you don’t find the company, check other sources to confirm.

There is a caveat to all this. The term publicly traded can mean a variety of things. For instance, companies listed on a major exchange like the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq must maintain listing requirements including financial standards.

Some others trade on lightly regulated marketplaces like the Pink Sheets or OTC Bulletin Board, which don’t have the same listing requirements.

Suit: Kids exposed to inappropriate things on Snapchat Elizabeth Weise @eweise USATODAY

SAN FRANCISCO A Los Angeles law firm has sued Snapchat, charging that the popular messaging site is exposing children to “harmful, offensive, prurient and sexually offensive content.”

Mark Geragos of Geragos & Geragos says Snapchat’s Discover feature violates the Communications Decency Act, which requires Internet services to notify customers that parental control systems are available to help

them limit access to material that may be harmful to minors.

The suit, brought on behalf of parents seeking class-action status, says that Snapchat’s Terms of Service includes no warnings about the potentially offensive content found on Snapchat Discover.

The feature, first introduced in January of 2015, is a curated collection of articles and items from media outlets such as Buzzfeed, People, Vice, Cosmopolitan, MTV, National Geographic, the Wall Street Journal and

others.

Most of the articles are innocuous, including topics such as “How to make watermelon pops” and “The French girl’s guide to perfect skin.”

However, some include material parents might not want their children seeing, according to Geragos.

Some examples: u 12 awkward things that happen when you have sex with a new partner. u Has an alien ever gotten you pregnant?

u People share their secret sex rules.

Geragos hopes to persuade a court to allow the case to become a class-action suit. He brought it in the name of a minor child identified only as John Doe. When the suit refers to minors, it means people between the ages of 13 and 18. Under Snapchat’s Terms of Service, no one under the age of 13 is allowed to create an account on or use the service.

Given that policy, it’s difficult to consider the material available on the site too obscene for that audience, said Ken Paulson, president of the Newseum Insti-

tute’s First Amendment Center in Washington, D.C. While it is “undeniably tacky, rude and crude, so is a lot of the content that 13-year-olds ingest daily on the Internet,” he said.

One of the suit’s allegations is that Snapchat fails to notify parents of filtering options to protect their children from content they deem inappropriate.

However, Paulson asked, “Doesn’t every parent know that this software exists? It’s a common element of parenting these days,” he said.

In a statement, Snapchat said it is sorry if people are offended.

Studios think outside the box (office) Opening opposite a blockbuster can pay off big Chris Heady USA TODAY

In this summer’s pool of underwhelming movies, counterprogramming is flourishing.

The Legend of Tarzan turned out to be the biggest new movie at the Fourth of July box office, finishing second (behind Pixar’s blockbuster Finding Dory) with a surprising $46.6 million for the four-day weekend (against projections of $30 million), according to tracking service comScore.

The romantic action-adventure starring Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie offered an appealing date-night alternative (66% of moviegoers were younger than 35) to horror movie The Purge: Election Year ($36.1 million) and Steven Spielberg’s family-friendly The BFG ($22.7 million).

It’s just the latest movie to outwrestle its weight class and bring in unexpectedly sizable earnings.

Similarly, Dwayne Johnson/ Kevin Hart buddy comedy Cen-

JONATHAN OLLEY, WARNER BROS. PICTURES

The Legend of Tarzan beat expectations last weekend with a surprising $46.6 million opposite juggernaut Finding Dory. tral Intelligence opened a strong second ($35.5 million) opposite Finding Dory in June, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 finished third (and collected $17.9 million) against superhero showdown Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in March.

“On paper, it makes total sense,” says Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for comScore. “Counterprogramming is the framework to get the most

bang for the buck for movies that aren’t necessarily going to be blockbusters.”

Counterprogramming has become a crazy expensive game of chicken, Dergarabedian says.

Scheduling a rom-com next to a superhero franchise or a horror movie on Valentine’s Day is a classic ploy, he says, but there’s no formula that’s guaranteed.

“You still have to be able to deliver the movie,” Dergarabedian

says. “People are looking for different and good. You can’t just rely on being the other option.”

The most successful examples of counterprogramming so far this year include The Angry Birds Movie and Central Intelligence.

In the battle between raunchy comedy Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, cop comedy The Nice Guys and children’s comedy Angry Birds, the latter destroyed the other two. Angry Birds has raked in $105.7 million to date, more than Neighbors 2 and Nice Guys combined.

“Neighbors 2 and Nice Guys basically negated themselves by having a similar audience,” Dergarabedian says.

While Central Intelligence certainly wasn’t going to beat Finding Dory, it still performed well as the adult alternative to a kids’ movie.

To determine success, look at how well the audience is served rather than money, says Erik Davis, managing editor for Movies.com and Fandango.com.

The greater the disparity in the genres, the better the position to succeed, he says.

“If anything,” Davis says, “the box office is better right now than a year ago.”

MANAGING WEEDS

Multifaceted approach is best for keeping undesirables at bay

R

alph Waldo Emerson said a weed is a plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered, and a horticulturist might tell you that a weed is simply a plant out of place. By these definitions, “weeds” sound like only a nuisance (and some of them are), but many so-called weeds compete with more desirable plants for water and nutrients, reduce quality and yield of cultivated crops, serve as hosts for plant pests, and can even be toxic to humans or pets. In mid- to late summer, those weeds are at their toughest.

Managing them requires a multifaceted approach.

rie hay are popular choices because they can be incorporated back into the soil for a ready source of organic matter. Wood chips, pine needles, compost and other yard waste materials can also be used as mulch, but avoid using grass clippings or similar materials until they have weathered. Fresh yard waste materials can tie up nitrogen in the soil. Gardeners should also take care to avoid plant waste materials that have had pesticides used on them as these can be transferred into the garden and affect plant growth.

Another option is to use a ground cover. Old newspapers and cardboard break down and can be incorporated into the soil but need to be weighted down or covered. Landscape fabric, also known as weed barrier cloth and weed control fabric, could also be used. This works especially well for the space between rows, but could be used alongside rows as long as space is left for water to reach crop roots or a watering system is in place.

In flower beds, mulching with coarse materials such Prevention is of course the as wood chips is the most first step in weed managepopular choice because ment.

izing. Mow high during the summer to avoid stressing the grass, and water deeply and infrequently as needed.

A thick stand of grass will prevent most weeds.

In warm-season lawns, work to improve the stand of grass in early summer.

Once weeds have emerged, physical removal is the best bet. In nonirrigated gardens and lawns, work on weeding after a rain when soil is moist.

In hard dry soil, weeds will typically break off at

the soil surface and regrow from the roots. In all situations, small weeds are easier to remove than large ones, so weed often to keep them in check. If weeds do get big or are too much to handle by pulling, use a hoe, trowel, soil knife, dandelion digger or similar tool to loosen them.

If weeds bloom before they can be removed, at least remove the flowers.

Leaving them and letting seeds form means next year’s weed problem will

be even worse.

For especially problematic weeds like field bindweed, bermudagrass and poison ivy, you may wish to enlist the help of a herbicide. Always read and follow label directions.

Even when it is 80 degrees outside, the inside of a car can easily reach dangerous temperatures quickly.

Protect your pets from summer heat

id you know that animals that are left outside in the heat for extended periods of time are susceptible to heat exhaustion and heat stroke?

Heat exhaustion is the first step toward heat stroke and, if caught early, can easily be alleviated.

Heat exhaustion symptoms can include heavy panting; weakness; signs of confusion; dizziness; nausea; a fast heart rate; and dark colored urine, which can indicate dehydration.

Heat stroke is much more serious. Symptoms can include rapid panting; a very high temperature (although in severe cases the temperature can fall very low); either a bright red or a very pale tongue and gums; thick, sticky sa-

Hot surfaces such as these can cause burns to the paw pads. l If you must be outside during a hot time of day, wet your pet down and provide a child’s swimming pool filled with water to help pets stay cool. l Avoid walks and runs during the hottest parts of the day. Sudden heat stroke during strenuous activity can lead to sudden collapse, and even death. When you do go out on walks, be sure to take water with you to provide a source hydration and internal cooling for your pet. Be sure to take

Some ways to keep cooling costs in check

3645 SE Arrowhead Rd, Topeka | $565,000 SHOWN BY APPOINTMENT

W

hen temperatures soar above 90 degrees, the cost of cooling a home can soar too.

Keep cooling costs in check by following these simple steps: Step 1: Service air conditioner units annually. Keep motors lubricated, condensation lines clear and condenser coils clean to save money and increase the life of the air unit.

YOUR AIR-CONDITIONING UNIT should always be clear of vegetation and debris to allow for proper air flow.

Step 2: Clear away debris and vegetation from around the air conditioner to allow for proper air flow.

Step 3: Use landscaping to create shade for the home and the air conditioner. A single tree can shade a home enough to reduce the inside temperature by 8 to 10 degrees during the summer.

Step 4: Change the furnace/air-conditioning filter at least once every 90 days. Use a good quality pleated furnace filter for optimal energy efficiency.

Step 5: Use fans to maximize air circulation. Make sure ceiling fans are rotating counter clockwise during the summer months.

Step 6: Turn off the air conditioner and open the windows whenever temperatures drop below 80.

Step 7: Seal up cracks and crevices around

3038 NE 27th, Topeka | $279,980

windows and doors. Add additional insulation in the attic if warranted.

Step 8: Seal duct work joints with mastic sealant to reduce air loss.

Step 9: Keep window shades closed during the day or install reflective window film on east and west facing windows.

Step 10: Replace older window screen with energy efficient solar screen to block up to 70 percent of the heat generated from sunlight.

Step 11: Grill outdoors and use small appliances to eliminate oven and stove usage.

Step 12: Hang clothes out to dry instead of using a gas or electric clothes dryer.

Step 13: Hand wash dishes or run the dishwasher at night, with full loads. Skip the heat dry cycle on the dishwasher completely.

Step 14: Install a pro-

grammable thermostat.

Set it to 78 when people are home and 88 when the house is empty.

Step 15: Replace incandescent bulbs with cooler compact fluorescent bulbs or LED bulbs.

Step 16: Turn off computers, televisions and other heat-producing appliances when they are not in use.

Step 17: Paint the house a lighter color to reflect heat better.

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com/sports l Saturday, July 9, 2016

Mariners hold on to beat Royals Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Royals’ Yordano Ventura stood on the mound one out away from taking a tie game into the seventh inning. Two hits and one wild pitch later, he walked off with the Mariners in control.

Seattle scored the tying and go-ahead runs on that wild pitch, and Hisashi Iwakuma pitched into the seventh inning, helping the Mariners to a 3-2 victory over Kansas City on Friday night.

Ventura (6-7) gave up only a sacrifice fly to Ketel Marte in the fifth before unraveling the next inning, beginning with Seth Smith’s two-out single and Robinson Cano’s double.

Nelson Cruz stepped to the plate and nearly gave Seattle a three-run homer, sending a pitch soaring down the right-field line.

First base umpire CB Bucknor initially signaled home run, then signaled foul ball, then decided that he wasn’t quite sure and met with the rest of the umpires.

“I lost it.” Cruz said. “I think that happened to the umpire too. I had no clue.”

After a review, the ball was declared foul and Nelson dug in again.

This time, Ventura’s pitched got past catcher Salvador Perez and bounded away, allowing Smith to score from third base and tie the game 1-all. Perez threw the ball away trying to get him out at the plate, allowing Cano to also score — the star catcher was given an error on the play.

“I was pitching good up to that point, I got two quick outs in that inning,” Ventura said. “I lost concentration and got a little bit behind the count, gave up a couple of hits and then came that play.”

Ventura allowed three runs, six hits and a walk over seven innings. He struck out five.

Those three runs were enough for Iwakuma (9-6), who allowed one run, five hits and three walks over 62⁄3 innings, striking out six.

He kept the Royals off balance with his usual herkyjerky delivery, the only run he allowed coming on Cheslor Cuthbert’s base hit in the fourth inning.

“We didn’t have scoring opportunities,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “He’s tough, got a good sinker, a good split. Keeps you off balance with you know a decent slider.”

Steve Cishek, who blew the save in the series opener, allowed Perez’s homer in the ninth before finishing off the inning. It was his 21st save of the season.

“Obviously, yesterday was tough,” he said. “I felt really good yesterday, it’s just baseball. So, I wanted a chance to go back out there and, if I had the chance, give the team the win to make up for it. It got a little sketchy there. I didn’t think he hit that that well, but, you know, I was able to finish it.”

Not to mention snap the Mariners’ 10-game road losing streak.

“That’s the beauty of baseball,” Cishek said. “You play so many games that if you have a bad outing you have an opportunity to get back out there the next night.”

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD PERRY ELLIS (34) AND WEST VIRGINIA FORWARD NATHAN ADRIAN GET PHYSICAL in the paint during the Jayhawks’ 81-71 win in the Big 12 Tournament, March 12 at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo.

Ellis makes summer league debut tonight

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Four years worth of work with Kansas basketball wasn’t enough to get Perry Ellis drafted into the NBA. Now the 22-year-old forward has a few days in Las Vegas to secure a spot in the league the hard way.

A free agent playing for the Mavericks’ summer league entry beginning tonight, Ellis will try to convince the same coaches and executives who passed on him on draft night that he actually belongs on a regular-season roster.

Right now, the people Ellis needs to impress the most are Dallas head coach Rick Carlisle and owner Mark Cuban.

The Mavs’ Vegas team will focus on the development of second-year wing Justin Anderson and second-round draft pick A.J. Hammons, a 7-foot center out of Purdue.

However, while speaking to media members earlier this week, Cuban made it sound

as if the other summertime Mavericks won’t be an afterthought for the organization.

“We’ve got a bunch of roster spots,” Cuban said Wednesday, in a video posted on the Mavs’ website.

“We put our money where our mouth is in cap room, so there’s a lot of spots for guys to make, and they know if they do what we expect them to do, probably three guys, maybe four, from this group are gonna make the team.”

Cuban made that statement as Ellis and other Dallas hopefuls worked behind him. It has to be a strange dynamic for all the players except Anderson and Hammons. The rest are not only trying to play well, but also, in a sense, beat out the guys next to them for a coveted roster spot or training camp invite.

So who is Ellis playing with/competing against?

Here’s a look at the rest of the Mavericks’ Vegas lineup, excluding the aforementioned

Anderson and Hammons: n Chane Behanan, 6-6 forward from Louisville n Vander Blue, 6-4 guard from Marquette, who has played in 5 NBA games (none since the 2014-15 season) n Kyle Collinsworth, 6-6 guard from BYU n Dorian Finney-Smith, 6-8 forward from Florida n Jonathan Gibson, 6-2 guard from New Mexico State n Isaiah Miles, 6-7 forward from St. Joseph’s n McKenzie Moore, 6-6 guard from UTEP n Giovan Oniangue, 6-6 forward from Congo n Satnam Singh, 7-2 center from India (Mavs’ Round 2 pick in 2015) n Jameel Warney, 6-8 forward from Stony Brook Dallas hasn’t retained undrafted rookies from its summer teams of late, but if what Cuban said is true, this year could be different.

Ellis, a 6-foot-8 All-American who averaged 17 points and shot 53.1 percent from

the field in his senior season at Kansas, surely understands the scope of what he could do for his professional career in the days ahead.

“You know, I’m just going to come out here and play hard,” Ellis told the Mavs’ website. “It’s a great opportunity for me. You know, it’s an honor to be here, and I just want to go out here and just play my game and play with a high energy.”

It sounds as if Dallas expects Ellis to fit in nicely with this makeshift unit that spent the past few days practicing together. The Mavericks’ summer league head coach, Jamahl Mosely, hailed the Jayhawk’s college résumé as a strength that should help Ellis and the Vegas version of the Mavs.

“He’s played a great amount of basketball,” Mosley said on the team’s website. “I mean, he played four years in college, and he’s Please see ELLIS, page 3D

James joins Jayhawks’ Louisiana pipeline

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas’ Memorial Stadium may sit 811 miles from the Baton Rouge, Louisiana, city limits, but, to three-star defensive end Troy James, it felt closer than that.

James, the fourth athlete from Louisiana in the Class of 2017 to commit to the Jayhawks so far, said one of the biggest reasons he orally pledged his college career to KU late last month was the familiarity he felt between what he just went through at Madison Prep and what the Jayhawks are going through today.

“We want to go up there Please see ROYALS, page 3D and help Kansas be known

as a football school, too,” said James of himself and fellow Louisiana prospects Mike Lee, Takulve Williams and Travis Jordan.

“We know that right now it’s a basketball school, but they used to say the same thing about the school I come from, ‘It’s a basketball school.’ But we turned it around and made it known as a football school, too, and I want to help do the same thing at Kansas.”

As enormous as that task might sound, given the more than 100 years of hoops success piled up on the Kansas basketball side, James said the Class of 2017 was capable of getting the job done.

There’s no one reason for

this belief, rather a combination of them. Like nearly all KU commitments, James said he and his bayou brothers were impressed by KU’s facilities, fell in love with the campus and appreciated the way they were treated on their visits. But there also was something more — call it a feeling or a vibe — that led to these athletes feeling so comfortable with taking on the challenge at Kansas.

“The night Mike (Lee) committed, I called him and said, ‘What made you do it,’” James recalled. “He told me, ‘I know what it can be.’

He said he liked everything about the coaches and the program.”

Nineteen days later, on

June 28, it was Lee who made the phone call and James who answered. This time, though, no questions were asked.

“When I did it, he called me screaming,” James remembered. “He said, ’Bout time, let’s get this party started.’”

Officially, the party can’t begin until Feb. 1, when all 2017 football commitments are first eligible to sign their national letters of intent.

And James admitted that even though he was solidly committed to Kansas, he was not going to shut down his recruiting entirely. That said, it sounds as if it would take something unexpected Please see FOOTBALL, page 3D

BORN ON THE BAYOU Troy James of Baton Rouge becomes the fourth Louisiana athlete to sign with the Kansas University football program for 2017. He joins: Mike Lee New Orleans Takulve Williams St. Augustine Travis Jordan Marrero

Larry Brown is leaving SMU after turning down a contract extension, ending a four-year run during which the Mustangs made the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1993 and then were banned from postseason play last season.

SMU athletic director Rick Hart said Friday that Brown, who was signed through next season, had been offered a new deal through 2020.

“This morning, however, I was notified by his agent that he would be stepping down,” Hart said.

“Coach Brown was able to accomplish so much in his four years on the Hilltop, including leading Brown us to our first conference title since 1993. He has left his mark on SMU basketball, and we are thankful for what he’s done.”

The Hall of Fame coach had repeatedly said how much he loved what he was accomplishing at SMU. Brown, who turns 76 in September, had indicated late last season that he wanted to keep coaching as long as SMU would have him.

Brown told the Dallas Morning News he had been discussing an extension with SMU officials for the past 20 months, but they were unable to agree on terms. The coach didn’t get into specifics of what he wanted and what was offered by the school.

The coach also expressed regret at the timing of the news, which became public in the aftermath of five police officers being shot to death Thursday night in downtown Dallas, only a few miles from the SMU campus. Seven other officers and two civilians were wounded in the attack, which took place during a protest over this week’s killings by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota.

Associate head coach Tim Jankovich will take over as head coach, as had been expected since he came to SMU with Brown in 2012 after serving five seasons as Illinois State head coach.

“I have the utmost confidence in Tim based on both his coaching resume as well as my time working with him here on the Hilltop,” Hart said.

“I know he will keep our program among the nation’s elite, and I look forward to the seasons ahead.”

SMU was 25-5 last season, which came after the Mustangs won 27 games each of the previous two seasons.

The Mustangs won the American Athletic Conference title in 2015. They then lost their NCAA Tournament opener 60-59 to UCLA after a controversial goaltending call that went against SMU with 13 seconds left.

Brown was suspended for the first nine games last season for NCAA violations that also prevented the Mustangs from going to their second consecutive NCAA Tournament.

The NCAA ruled last September that a former men’s basketball administrative assistant completed online course work for a student to meet NCAA initial eligibility standards and be admitted to the university.

That was among infractions against the men’s basketball and men’s golf programs.

Guard Keith Frazier, the player in question, averaged 11.9 points in 10 games as a junior last season before leaving SMU and transferring to North Texas.

MILOS RAONIC CELEBRATES AFTER DEFEATING ROGER FEDERER in their men’s singles semifinal match at Wimbledon on Friday in London.

Raonic ousts Federer in Wimbledon semis London — Roger Federer’s bid for a record eighth Wimbledon title was cut short in the semifinals Friday by Milos Raonic, a big-serving Canadian who came from two-sets-to-one down to win in five and reach his first Grand Slam final.

Raonic beat the seven-time champion, 6-3, 6-7 (3), 4-6, 7-5, 6-3, on Centre Court, handing the Swiss great his first loss ever in the Wimbledon semifinals after 10 straight wins.

“This one clearly hurts because I felt I could have had it,” Federer said. “So close. It was really so, so close. It clearly hurts.”

The 25-year-old Raonic became the first Canadian man in history to advance to the final of a Grand Slam tournament. The only other Canadian to get this far was Eugenie Bouchard, the women’s runner-up at Wimbledon in 2014.

In Sunday’s final, Raonic will face 2013 champion Andy Murray, who swept Tomas Berdych, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3, in less than two hours to reach the championship match for the third time at Wimbledon and 11th time at a Grand Slam.

The second-seeded Murray has a 6-3 career record against Raonic, including a win in the final of the Wimbledon warm-up at Queen’s Club last month. The sixth-seeded Raonic, who served 23 aces among his 75 winners, avenged a Wimbledon semifinal loss to Federer in straight sets two years ago. The No. 3-seeded Federer broke serve only once, while Raonic managed three breaks.

“An incredible comeback for me, really,” Raonic said. “I was struggling there through the third and fourth sets. He was playing some really good tennis. And just on the little, little opening, I managed to turn it around.”

The 6-foot-5 Canadian’s serves reached 144 mph and averaged 129 mph on first serves — 3 mph faster than Federer’s fastest of the day.

For Federer, the loss means he remains one title short of surpassing the all-time Wimbledon men’s record. He’s still tied with Pete Sampras and 1880s player William Renshaw with seven.

Federer last won Wimbledon in 2012, the last of his record 17 Grand Slam championships. He lost in the Wimbledon final the past two years to Novak Djokovic, who was ousted in the third round this year by Sam Querrey.

“I mean, yes, while I’m in the tournament, it’s a dream to win my eighth,” Federer said. “It’s not my only reason why I play tennis, just to be clear, otherwise I’ll go in a freeze box now and come out before Wimbledon next year.”

The match turned in the fourth set, as Raonic saved three break points — two in one game to stay ahead 3-2, another with a service winner to hold for 5-4. Then Federer went up 40-0 on serve at 6-5, but couldn’t hold. He served two double-faults in a row to set up deuce. Federer saved two set points before Raonic hit a backhand passing shot down the line to send the match into a fifth.

“I can’t believe I served a double-fault twice,” Federer said. “Unexplainable for me really. Very sad about that and angry at myself because never should I allow him to get out of that set that easily.”

CYCLING

Inflatable arch hits rider Lac De Payolle, France — Adam Yates didn’t know what hit him.

On the attack in the Tour de France, the British rider was suddenly performing a somersault in midair after an inflatable arch marking the final kilometer collapsed and hit him during a bizarre finale to Friday’s seventh stage.

Yates hit the ground hard, bloodying his chin and bruising his shoulder. Still, he was able to get back on his bike and reach the finish shortly after his countryman Steve Cummings won the first of four stages in the Pyrenees with a solo attack on the Col d’Aspin climb.

“I had no time to react,” Yates said after getting his chin stitched up. “It’s a good thing it was just me on my own. It could have been a lot worse with the peloton sprinting at 70 kph (45 mph). ... I can’t tell you what happened. The barrier came down.”

Fortunately, his day only got better. Organizers later revised his time and he rose to second in the overall standings, 5 minutes 50 seconds behind race leader Greg Van Avermaet of Belgium.

The 23-year-old Yates also earned the white jersey as the Tour’s highest-placed young rider after officials took the finishing times three kilometers from the end of the 162.5-kilometer (101-mile) leg from L’Isle-Jourdain to Lac de Payolle.

PRO BASKETBALL

Spurs deal Diaw to Jazz Salt Lake City — The San Antonio Spurs have traded Boris Diaw and a second-round pick in 2022 to the Utah Jazz for Olivier Hanlan.

Diaw is one of three veterans the Jazz brought in to bolster their roster for a playoff push next season after narrowly missing the postseason in 2016. The Jazz haven’t been in the playoffs since 2012.

The team also signed Joe Johnson and acquired George Hill from the Pacers in a three-team trade that sent Jeff Teague from the Hawks to the Pacers.

Diaw gives the Jazz a versatile 6-foot-8, 250-pound power forward who can play center in smaller lineups. The 13-year veteran averaged 6.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists last season while shooting 36.2 percent from three-point range.

Finley wins trials discus, qualifies for Rio Olympics J-W Staff Reports

Eugene, Ore. — Mason Finley, an eight-time All-American while at Kansas from 2010-12, won the discus championship Friday afternoon at the U.S. Olympic Trials at Hayward Field.

The victory marked Finley’s first senior discus title and earned him a bid to the Rio Olympics Games. Finley’s qualification made him the third former KU track and field athlete to punch their ticket to the 2016 Games.

“It was really hard to grasp the discus with the weather,” he said.

“I threw much better in qualifying yesterday, but I think I threw pretty well today considering. I definitely wanted to get a good throw in one of the first two rounds.”

Finley, who has enjoyed a breakout year in the discus, moved to second among American discus throwers this year after a life-time best toss of 66.72 meters (218’11”)

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY ATHLETE MASON FINLEY competes during the men’s discus throw final at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials, Friday in Eugene Ore. in the qualifying rounds Thursday.

That mark gave Finley noticeable momentum heading into the final Friday as, on just his second throw of the day, he posted the eventual

winning mark with an attempt that measured 63.42 meters (208’1”).

“It’s a huge relief,” Finley said, “but that throw isn’t going to do very well in Rio. We’ve got to turn on the afterburners.”

very experienced. He knows how to play the game, so I think that’s going to be a big key for us.

He knows how to play, he’s in the right position, and he makes the simple and easy play.”

Regardless of what transpires on the floor in Vegas, the Mavs likely

won’t need any of these free agents to play critical roles in their regular-season rotation. But Cuban appears more inclined to give one or more of them a roster spot than he has in the past.

“We want to have a good crew of young guns that we develop,” the Dallas owner said.

If Ellis fits in as seamlessly as Mosley suggested and goes on scoring tears like he did at KU, the Wichita native just

might land a spot in the NBA next season after all.

And Ellis knows how significant this business trip to Las Vegas will be for his future. His first game is tonight against Miami (9 p.m., NBA TV).

In typical Perry Ellis fashion, he said his main focus for his summer league experience will be to play well and play hard.

“We’ll go from there,” he added, “and see what happens.”

Jamari Traylor’s summer run ends J-W Staff Reports

Former Kansas forward Jamari Traylor’s run with Indiana’s summer league team came to a close Friday in Orlando.

Traylor, a 6-foot-8, 220-pound backup big for the Pacers during the past week, played a personalhigh 21 minutes in an 8572 win over the Magic’s Blue squad.

The former KU role player, who played 143 games for the Jayhawks over the past four seasons, missed his only

field-goal attempt in the finale and went scoreless.

But Traylor still made an impact on the glass, pulling down seven rebounds.

An undrafted free agent, Traylor only appeared in one other summer league game in Orlando. He played close to four minutes Wednesday against Oklahoma City, and made the most of his time, scoring six points on 2-for-3 shooting while snagging four rebounds (two offensive).

The Pacers, who went 2-3 in the seven-day Or-

lando Summer League, are one of the seven franchises that don’t send a team to Las Vegas.

Greene scoreless in Memphis debut Las Vegas — ExKansas guard Brannen Greene was scoreless in his first action for the Memphis Grizzlies’ summer league team.

Greene, who logged two minutes, was 0-1 from the field and grabbed a rebound in the game against an NBA D-League select team.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Undefeated Stasburg wins 12th The Associated Press

National League Nationals 3, Mets 1 New York — Stephen Strasburg stayed undefeated, winning a marquee pitching matchup against an ailing Noah Syndergaard by tossing seven innings of two-hit ball Friday night that sent Washington past New York.

Clint Robinson hit a two-run homer for the Nationals, going deep for the second consecutive night, and Daniel Murphy added an RBI double against his former team.

Strasburg (12-0) struck out nine and became the first National League pitcher in 104 years to win his first 12 decisions in a season.

Oliver Perez and Blake Treinen combined to escape an eighth-inning jam, and Washington extended its NL East lead to four games over the Mets.
