Commissioners, public criticize proposed budget cuts about the budget Tuesday at City Hall. During a public comment period, Lawrence resident Umut Bayramoglu said the budget proposal “sounded like it was written by a person who does not understand the character of this community.”

“

The legacy we’re facing right now is, in a period of about 30 days, we’re defunding the Arts Center; we’re removing the director of arts and culture; we’re canning a public art project — congratulations, we just became Topeka, Kansas.”

BRYAN CASKEY, DIRECTOR OF ELECTIONS FOR THE KANSAS SECRETARY OF STATE’S OFFICE, and Sen. Vicki Schmidt, R-Topeka, debate a new regulation that will require some voters in the upcoming elections who have not yet shown proof of U.S. citizenship to cast provisional ballots so they can only vote in federal races.

Rule prevents some from voting in state elections

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — A state board on Tuesday approved a temporary regulation that will limit the voting rights of an estimated 17,000 Kansans, saying they can cast ballots only in federal races, not in state or local elections.

Improvements are likely to be made along East Ninth Street, but they won’t include everything set forth in a concept design crafted over the past 17 months.

After Mayor Mike Amyx asked commissioners to put “everything on the table” at a Tuesday work session on the project, it became clear the design would need to be reduced in scope and cost before a majority of the commission will vote to approve it.

Amyx and Commissioner Matthew Herbert indicated they would to advance the CITY design as-is. Commissioners Lisa Larsen and Stu- COMMISSION art Boley said the project would need to be scaled back before they voted for it, and Vice Mayor Leslie Soden would support only a simple street repair project, she said.

“I am committed to doing something,” Larsen said. “As far as going to the second phase, I don’t have a problem with that, but it’s going to be with a lot of compromise. The full-blown concept design… I think it needs to be looked at very closely and come more in line with something that could be considered reasonable.”

Amyx, Soden, City Manager Tom Markus and other city staff will meet to put ideas on paper for how to move forward with funding the proposed arts corridor, using the concept design “as a basis,” Amyx said.

Voters are not going to understand why their votes aren’t going to be counted. ...

If they find out later that their votes didn’t CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A count, that’s certainly going to undermine will be counted after credibility in the election process.”

Election Day when their county Board of Canvassers meets, and that board will count only votes cast in federal races.

For voters in Lawrence, that means Democratic voters in that category will be allowed to vote only in the primary for U.S. Senate between Monique Singh and Patrick Wiesner.

There are no Republican primaries in federal races in which Lawrence-area voters can vote.

There is a Republican primary in the 3rd Congressional District between U.S. Rep. Kevin Yoder and challenger Greg Goode. There is also a three-way Democratic primary in that district between Jay Sidie, Nathaniel W. McLaughlin and Reggie Marselus.

And there is a Republican primary in the 1st Congressional District between U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp and challenger Roger Marshall.

The Rules and Regulations Board is made up of representatives from the offices of the Secretary of State, Attorney General and Department of Administration. It also includes the chair and vice chair of the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Administrative Rules and Regulations.

The board adopted the rule on the last day in which people can register in time for the upcoming Aug. 2 primary and one day before advance voting begins in those races.

It will be in force for 120 days, until Nov. 8, which is also the day of the general election. It will become null and void if a federal appeals court later overturns Judge Robinson’s ruling.

Meanwhile, a state judge in Topeka, Franklin Theis, has ruled that the secretary of state has no statutory authority to conduct such a dual election system, in which different classes of voters are treated differently depending on the method they used to register. He also said that forcing one group of voters to cast provisional ballots violates their right to cast a secret ballot.

But Theis did not issue an injunction to block Kobach’s office from conducting a bifurcated election.

Kobach’s office has appealed Theis’ ruling to the Kansas Court of Appeals. It has also appealed Robinson’s decision to the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which has scheduled a hearing in late August, after the primaries.

Kobach did not attend Tuesday’s meeting, but an attorney from his office, Bryan Brown, said the temporary rule was needed to enforce the

state’s proof of citizenship law, officially known as the Secure and Fair Elections, or SAFE, Act, at least as it applies to state elections.

“The Legislature passed the SAFE Act,” he said. “The secretary of state, as a constitutional officer, is merely attempting to enact it, per the duties put upon him by the Constitution of the State of Kansas.”

State law allows the adoption of temporary rules and regulations in special circumstances when there isn’t enough time to go through the full process of adopting permanent regulations, which typically takes about a year and involves opportunity for public comment and review by the Legislature’s joint committee.

Sen. Vicki Schmidt, RTopeka, questioned why Kobach’s office didn’t come to the Legislature during the sine die session June 1, or during the special session June 23-24.

But Bryan Caskey, director of elections in Kobach’s office, said that was because the federal case was under appeal, and Kobach was asking the 10th Circuit to put a hold on Judge Robinson’s order pending an appeal of the full district court decision.

The 10th Circuit denied that request on June 10. Oral arguments on the appeal are now scheduled for Aug. 23.

Schmidt abstained from voting on the temporary rule, saying she had a conflict of interest because she is involved in a contested primary race, and the rule could affect the outcome of that race.

Rep. Sharon Schwartz, R-Washington, who is vice chair of the Rules and Regulations Committee but is not running for re-election this year, voted in favor of the rule, saying, “I believe it was the intent of the Legislature that voters should be citizens of the state of Kansas.”

Mark Johnson, who teaches election law at Kansas University and is one of the attorneys representing the plaintiffs in the ongoing federal lawsuit, said there was no justification for enacting a temporary rule, and he complained that the text of the rule was not even made public until shortly before the meeting.

“There is no emergency here,” he said.

“Nothing has happened in the last few days that requires this rule to be passed today.”

Johnson also said the

rule will cause confusion at the polls on Election Day and that it could damage the integrity of the entire election process this year.

“Voters are not going to understand why their votes aren’t going to be counted,” he said. “If the county election judges try to explain it to them, inevitably many of them will mess up the explanation, so voters will come to the polls not knowing if they can vote. If they vote, they’re not going to know who they’re voting for.

If they find out later that their votes didn’t count, that’s certainly going to undermine credibility in the election process.”

State Rep. Jim Ward, D-Wichita, called the process “appalling” and said, “I cannot believe the secretary of state would pull this kind of chicanery,” “It is not a coincidence that the 120th day will be the general elections,” Ward said. “So this temporary rule will control not only the primaries, where there are at least a dozen races in highly competitive districts, where a handful of votes will determine the future of this state, being controlled by a regulation that’s in direct violation to court orders.”

Also speaking against the rule was Marge Ahrens, co-president of the League of Women Voters of Kansas, who said her organization has no way of knowing which voters are on the list so the group can contact them and let them know how they will be affected.

“We are concerned that every eligible citizen in Kansas have easy access to the vote,” she said. “And we do not know how the individuals will be reached beyond our Facebook and website where we list those in suspense. We do not even know the names of the persons from the DMV list who will only be allowed to vote in federal elections.”

Kobach’s office recently denied an open records request by the JournalWorld for the database of all voters whose registrations are in suspense, including information showing the method by which they attempted to register.

The Journal-World has lodged a complaint with the Shawnee County District Attorney’s office, alleging a violation of the Kansas Open Records Act, but that complaint has not yet been resolved.

support of the K-10 Connector bus service, funding is likely to remain flat next year.

In a letter to City Manager Tom Markus last month, Johnson County officials asked Lawrence to pay $327,800 for K-10 Connector service in 2017 — amounting to a 178 percent increase over what’s being paid this year. Some city leaders don’t think Lawrence should be responsible for so much of the cost.

“They’re not running that route for us — we didn’t ask them to provide that route,” said Lawrence

Transit System Director Robert Nugent. “I’ve been in this business for almost 30 years, and I’ve never funded somebody else’s service.”

The current budget recommendation shows Lawrence paying $120,000 in 2017. Nugent spoke to members of the Lawrence Public Transit Advisory Committee

on Tuesday. Though the committee did not have enough members present for a vote, it could ultimately propose to pay more or less toward the K-10 Connector in the future.

The route runs along Kansas Highway 10 and takes riders between Kansas University, Johnson County Community College and KU’s Edwards Campus. The letter to Markus, signed by Deputy Johnson County Manager Penny Postoak Ferguson, states that the county’s Board of Commissioners “would likely need to revisit and reassess its support of the route if funding from the city of Lawrence were to remain flat.”

The award was announced a couple of weeks ago.

Here are the cities with the best main streets in the U.S., according to 10best. com: No. 1: Emporia No. 2: Howell, Mich.

No. 3: McMinnville, Ore. No. 4: Staunton, Va. No. 5: Ogden, Utah No. 6: Franklin, Tenn.

ists. For whatever reason, Lawrence didn’t make the list this year.

Take comfort, though.

Lawrence’s downtown has won many awards, sometimes from these same organizations. In 2010, downtown Lawrence was named one of the 10 best streets in the nation by the American Planning Association.

As for Emporia, it is only about an hour-anda-half drive, so you can check out that downtown for yourself. The website touts how Commercial Street in Emporia is home to an old Granada Theatre that hosts concerts and events and how the downtown has become a gathering place for large events like the Dirty Kanza Bicycle Race.

There is a value to (the K-10 Connector) service, but what is that value? Is it $120,000? Is it $300,000? What is it?”

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

In 2012, Johnson County leaders, facing a budget reduction for the K-10 Connector, asked Lawrence to help support the service. The letter states a funding agreement was “discussed and approved in concept” with former City Manager David Corliss. The agreement was for $120,000 in 2014, $200,000 in 2015 and $327,800 in 2016 and beyond.

Though Nugent said that discussion did take place, he noted that since the city sets its budget annually, agreeing to the three-year plan would not have been possible.

“It sounds like we struck this deal for three years,” Nugent said.

“That’s not true; that’s not

what happened. That’s not what we talked about that day. It was about if we were going to get up to a higher number, that’s how it’d have to be accomplished.”

Nugent told the committee that Johnson County officials say that 60 percent of ridership on the route is people going from Douglas County to Johnson County. Though Nugent said that the route has value to Lawrence, he doesn’t think that the city should be paying what would amount to roughly one-third of the costs, which he estimated to be between

$900,000 and $1 million.

“There is a value to that service, but what is that value?” Nugent asked the committee. “Is it $120,000? Is it $300,000?

What is it?”

The committee is not scheduled to meet again before the city passes its budget for the upcoming year. The Lawrence City Commission met Tuesday afternoon for public work sessions on the city manager’s recommended 2017 budget, and will approve a final budget in August.

County CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

The proposed 2017 budget County Administrator Craig Weinaug presented the commission last week included funding for five partners making new spending requests.

The proposed 2017 budget would require $52.5 million in revenue from property taxes and would increase the county’s mill levy from 41.01 mills to 43.183 mills.

Although commissioners made no official decisions at Tuesday’s work session on the “supplemental” requests, they did signal approval of the most expensive item on the list.

That request originated from the city of Eudora and would provide ambulance service for that community. LawrenceDouglas County Fire Medical would receive the $335,148 needed for an ambulance and equipment and the $937,300 for annual operational costs.

In addressing the commission on the request, Eudora interim City Manager Barack Matite noted the city had made the request for the previous two years. It was a need that was only increasing for eastern Douglas County and the growing community, he said.

Eudora Mayor Tim Reazin and City Commissioner Ruth Hughs said the city had done its part by making space available for the ambulance and crew in the city’s 3-year-old Public Safety Building.

That commitment from the city’s helped pave the way for the expansion of ambulance service to the community, Douglas County Commission Chairman Jim Flory said.

“We’ve struggled with this the last three years at budget time,” he said.

L awrence J ournal -W orld “In my mind, it’s never been a question of ‘if’ but of ‘when.’ I think the indications are the ‘when’ is now. I think we’ll be able to get over the hoop, but it is a big item.”

As he left the work session, Reazin said he was thankful for commission’s willingness to include the request in the budget.

“I’m encouraged by their comments,” he said.

“This is something that is badly needed in Eudora and eastern Douglas County.”

Other requests If the Eudora mayor was thankful, Bert Nash Executive Director Dave Johnson remained hopeful despite his agency’s supplemental request not being among those included in the proposed 2017 budget.

The request is for an additional $158,000 to offset the $181,429 in Medicaid revenue lost when Gov. Sam Brownback ordered cuts in June to address the state’s budget shortfall. Bert Nash also took a funding hit with the state’s elimination of a “health home” pilot program, which was designed to coordinate care for people with both mental health illnesses and chronic medical conditions, he said.

After noting Bert Nash had already cut to bone, Johnson ended his presentation to commissioners with the words “please, please.” Without additional funding, Bert Nash would have to consider eliminating programs, reducing services or increasing fees charged to clients, he said. Some hard decisions have already been made, he said, citing the recent closing of Bert Nash’s office in Eudora.

Stepping to the podium after Johnson, Marvin Hunt, executive director of the Dwayne Peaslee Technical Training Center, borrowed his “please, please”

words when making his appeal. The tech center, which opened in August 2015, is asking for supplemental funding of $45,105 for operations and maintenance and $50,000 for repairs and maintenance.

Hunt said that funding plus the $150,000 the city of Lawrence was providing in 2017 would make the center sustainable.

Hunt added, however, that the expectation was for the tech center to thrive and not just sustain operations.

With that in mind, a group is working on a plan for Peaslee, said Hugh Carter, vice president of external affairs for the Lawrence chamber of commerce. The plan involved a three-step approach that would start with fundraising, move to needed renovations and repairs at the center and conclude with identifying a revenue stream to support Peaslee, he told commissioners.

Flory said the center’s workforce technical training was a vital component of the county’s economic development effort. Therefore, it might be possible to use some of the money the county earmarks for economic development initiatives to fund the Peaslee request, he said. That would allow commissioners to fund the request without adding to the overall mill levy, he said.

“There’s probably a number of those kinds of things we will be looking at,” Flory said after the meeting.

Commissioners will meet at 8:15 a.m. today for a work session on new spending requests from county departments.

They will start making 2017 budget decisions at a meeting scheduled for 8:15 a.m. July 19.

Budget CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“The legacy we’re facing right now is, in a period of about 30 days, we’re defunding the Arts Center; we’re removing the director of arts and culture; we’re canning a public art project — congratulations, we just became Topeka, Kansas,” Herbert said to some applause and laughs. “I live in Lawrence because it’s not Topeka, Kansas. I don’t want my legacy to be that I helped to make Lawrence Topeka.”

Others spoke against the proposed elimination of the city auditor position and asked for more of an increase to the Lawrence Public Library’s budget.

Mayor Mike Amyx and Vice Mayor Leslie Soden voiced support for maintaining at least some of a longevity program for city

Street CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The ideas will be put into a memorandum and publicly released in the next three to four weeks, he estimated. The project was listed as “unfunded” in Markus’ 2017 budget proposal. City commissioners will vote on a final budget in five weeks.

Markus told commissioners if they want to fund a Ninth Street project, they must decide on other projects to eliminate from the city’s fiveyear capital improvement plan in order to fund it.

A project to rebuild Queens Road in northwest Lawrence would be the “best substitute,” Markus said. The project is currently scheduled through the capital

employees.

Commissioners have about a month to revise the recommended budget before passing one Aug. 16. The public will have opportunities to comment on the budget at meetings July 19 and Aug. 2.

It wasn’t clear Tuesday whether commissioners would seek an increase in mill levy to fund some of the criticized cuts or defund some things to fund others. City Manager Tom Markus warned commissioners against taking money from city reserves and allocating it.

Markus said the recommended budget is “structurally balanced,” but only by “the thinnest of margins.”

“At the end of the day, we were faced with not having enough resources to meet all the demands,” Markus said. “Nobody likes a cut; I get that.

But nobody likes a tax increase, either… You

improvement plan for 2018, which would give commissioners “time to get into design considerations” for the East Ninth Project, he said.

The Queens Road project was set aside in the 2015 budget to make room for Ninth Street improvements, but neither project has been initiated.

Striking the Queens Road project would free up about $1.75 million for Ninth Street, Markus said.

A cost estimate accompanying the East Ninth Project’s concept design estimates $3.7 million for construction. Other costs, such as contractors’ fees, haven’t yet been developed.

The city would also pay between $275,000 to $375,000 for phase two of the project: drafting technical drawings and developing construction and bid documents.

Markus noted other items in the capital im-

Of all the items (Markus) has chosen not to fund, I’d suggest you give a lot of scrutiny to the one about the city auditor. That person has a long list of audits. It’s important that you get that feedback from him.”

really have choices, but they’re pretty basic: You can raise revenue or you can cut expenses.”

The budget, totaling $189 million, includes the elimination of one parttime and nine full-time staff positions. When the budget was released last Thursday, it included cuts to eight full-time positions. Before a budget work session Tuesday, another was added: an unfilled administrative support position in the City Clerk’s office.

The filled positions being eliminated are: the director of arts and culture, the city auditor, the as-

sistant director of finance and the small business facilitator.

According to 2015 employee salary information released Tuesday, the city auditor position is paid $91,738 base wages; the arts and culture director $80,000; the assistant finance director $89,250; and the small business facilitator $82,776.

Former city webmaster Eric Gruber and Michael Almon, with Lawrence’s Sustainability Action Network, spoke during a public comment section in favor of the city keeping the city auditor position.

“If you’re trying to figure out how to fund this,

it depends on the dollars you’re talking about,” Markus said. “The road as proposed, with the infusion of art, is adding substantial costs to the project, over and above what a typical street improvement would be. You have

Almon said it was “inappropriate” that Markus suggested the position be eliminated. The position’s existence is included in city ordinance, and the auditor is not under supervision of the city manager.

“Of all the items he has chosen not to fund, I’d suggest you give a lot of scrutiny to the one about the city auditor,” Almon said. “That person has a long list of audits. It’s important that you get that feedback from him.”

During public comment on the budget, and later during talks on the East Ninth Project, dozens of people urged commissioners to keep the arts and culture director.

Josh Shelton, project designer of the East Ninth Project, said eliminating the position would be “a mistake.”

“I’ve worked with other cities that have that position in place, and the cities run well as a result,

on the arts and culture side of things,” Shelton said. “And I’ve worked with cities that don’t have it. You’re special because you have it. Don’t eliminate it.”

Vice Mayor Leslie Soden responded said later in the meeting that, “Arts and culture did not start in Lawrence when Porter was hired,” referring to current Arts and Culture Director Porter Arneill.

City staff thought “long and hard” about whether to include more staff cuts in the budget proposal, Markus said.

“We could’ve done more cutting, but the cutting was painful enough for people,” he said. “And — as you can now tell — it’s much more difficult to reduce force with an incumbent than to do it through attrition.”

to ask what you intend to do with that design.”

Soden voiced opposition to eliminating the Queens Road project, saying, “This is a dirt street within city limits.”

An option voiced Tuesday to cut costs in the East Ninth Project was limiting it to five blocks, instead of seven. One block in the current project’s scope — from Pennsylvania to Delaware streets — has a perfect pavement condition rating, and another — from Massachusetts to New Hampshire street — hasn’t yet met the standard for needing repair.

General street repair to the five blocks from New Hampshire to Pennsylvania streets was estimated at $1.9 million. The general repair includes lanes for parking, bike lanes and sidewalks on both sides of the street.

About a dozen members

of the public asked commissioners Tuesday to support the current concept design, which comprises a stormwater management system with native grasses, integrated art installations, a shared-use path and brick sidewalk restoration in addition to typical street and sidewalk repairs.

“You either go forward with a project or you don’t,” said Lawrence resident Ron Gaches. “Why are you spending time trying to somehow wash away what makes this project great, to make it ordinary and something the opponents may support? Dare to be great.”

A few other people asked that the project be limited to street repairs, ADA compliant sidewalks and lighting.

Criminal charges were filed against them on June 1, according to criminal complaints filed in Douglas County District Court.

The men each face one count of misdemeanor theft.

No charges have been filed against Rivers in Douglas County District Court regarding the reported Feb. 20 incident.

KU head football coach David Beaty said on Feb. 22 that Rivers had been dismissed from the team and that Duckworth had been suspended.

According to a financial affidavit, Rivers has moved to Texas.

As of Tuesday, Duckworth, a linebacker, was listed on KU’s official football team roster.

Advocates seek federal action on Kansas Medicaid backlog Topeka — Advocates for people with disabilities have urged the federal government to require Kansas to quickly clear its backlog of Medicaid applications and to resolve problems with its application process as a condition for approving any renewal of its privatized program.

The Disability Rights Center asked the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in a letter to force Kansas to document a “realistic plan” to eliminate the backlog and to notify all applicants of their appeal rights.

Kansas Department for Health and Environment disclosed last month that the backlog had been undercounted by thousands of applications. The number of unprocessed applications stood at about

3,500 people until the state acknowledged the actual figure was more than 15,000.

KDHE has battling the backlog since switching to a new computerized system to process applications.

“Ongoing delays risk depriving applicants of necessary medical care through no fault of their own,” according to the letter written by Rocky Nichols, executive director of the Disability Rights Center.

Angela de Rocha, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, told The Topeka Capital-Journal the state is not required to inform people of their right to a hearing, but does so anyway if an application takes longer than 45 days to process.

Solution to roommate spat is simple: Move out Dear Annie: I’m getting sick of my living situation. After college, I moved in with a very close family friend. He has an awesome house right by the beach and was kind enough to offer me his spare bedroom for very cheap rent while I’m still looking for a full-time job. It was really perfect for the first few months, but lately I feel as if I’m walking on eggshells at home.

You see, he’s a bit older — in his 40s — and he has never been married. All of the furniture and appliances in the house are his. It’s a pretty tiny space, so we agreed to just share appliances and things when I moved in. I’ve always been respectful of his space.

Lately, if he comes home to me watching a movie on his TV or cooking on his stove or even just stretch-

What’s the best way to handle this? — Tiptoeing Dear Tiptoeing: You have a right to feel comfortable, so talk to him and see what happens. It’s unrealistic for him to expect you to live like a ghost. But at the end of the day, you are in his home, and

Autism drama not for everyone Where do we fall on the communications spectrum? The “A” in the title of the six-part drama “The A Word” (9 p.m., Sundance, TV-14?) is autism. But that term does not define the series, or its characters.

Joe Hughes (Max Vento) is a happy 5-year-old for the most part. But he appears most content wearing headphones, shut off from the world, while singing songs from his father Paul’s (Lee Ingleby) British punk and post-punk playlist.

It’s clear that Paul and his wife, Alison (Morven Christie), love their son. But they may have sheltered him too much from the world, as if they could protect him and themselves from the sad reality that he is growing increasingly out of sync with his playmates.

He’s first seen reacting badly at his own overproducedbirthday party, and later as he is the only one in his class not invited to another.

Joe’s story is just one tale of heartache and miscommunication in this series, which tiptoes a rather fine line between pathos and preciousness. Paul’s brother Eddie (Greg McHugh) has lost his job in London and returns to work at the family brewery, overshadowed by the very common knowledge that his wife, Nicola (Vinette Robinson), has had an affair with a fellow doctor.

Eddie’s reputation as a failure and cuckold precedes him everywhere. Christopher Eccleston presides as family patriarch Maurice, a 50-something widower with a knack for saying the wrong thing at the right time. His undiplomatic attempts to get little Joe some treatment set the whole conversation about autism in motion.

Or as much conversation as you can have when nobody even wants to utter the word.

As if to compensate for its difficult subject, “The A Word” lays on the whimsy, perhaps too heavily. The opening scene of Joe running through a bleakly beautiful North English valley singing through his headphones while holding a pinwheel will strike some as adorable — or perhaps just a bit too much.

And that probably describes the spectrum of reactions that “The A Word” will evoke. There are times when it proceeds with the gravity of “Broadchurch,” while at other times it seems aimed at fans of NBC’s “Parenthood.” Those shifts in tone may be the series’ weakness — or strength — depending on one’s perspective and tolerance for watching children singing 40-year-old songs by the Buzzcocks.

Tonight’s other highlights O Julie Chen hosts “Big Brother” (7 p.m., CBS).

O Xander confronts Rebecca on “Wayward Pines” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-14).

this was supposed to be temporary. So enough with the tiptoeing. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and march on to a new apartment.

Dear Annie: I’m finally finding my stride in life. I have a good job, am completely financially independent and am constantly busy working on projects.

I have a formerly close friend, Christine, who hasn’t really grown in my direction.

She met a 35-year-old wealthy artist last year and has been a kept lady since then. She casually floats between jobs and spends almost every day just doing yoga, going to the beach and smoking marijuana.

Fireworks ban Public education might be as effective as law enforcement in reducing fireworks usage in Lawrence.

A

nother Fourth of July has come and gone and, 14 years after the city’s fireworks ban went into effect, the holiday still is marked by plenty of pops and blasts in Lawrence.

The number of fireworks being shot in the city seems to ebb and flow from year to year, but anecdotal evidence indicates they’ve made a comeback in the last year or two.

Stepped-up police enforcement apparently isn’t the answer. The Lawrence Police Department assigned four extra patrol officers just to respond to fireworks complaints this year, but there still were plenty of fireworks. The three-day holiday weekend produced 311 fireworks calls to police that resulted in 176 warnings, but just 21 citations.

That’s easy to understand when you realize an officer has to actually witness someone lighting a fuse to issue a citation. Obviously people have figured out how hard it is to enforce the ban and are willing to take the risk. When fewer than 7 percent of fireworks complaint calls produce any kind of punishment, that’s a reasonable choice.

Just having the ban in place undoubtedly reduces the number of fireworks being shot off, but maybe some other efforts could help bring the number down further. Local residents have expressed concern about the impact of fireworks on veterans, especially those with post-traumatic stress disorder. Other residents note the impact of fireworks on their pets. Would it make sense for local veterans organizations and the Lawrence Humane Society to team up with an education campaign to make residents more aware of the negative impact of their noisy revelry?

This also might be a good opportunity for some neighborly interaction and courtesy. It may not be easy to ask people to skip the fireworks, but maybe if they understood it was upsetting to a human or canine neighbor, they might at least tone down their celebrations.

Law enforcement efforts haven’t come close to eliminating fireworks in Lawrence. Maybe some education and information would help that effort along.

Police are not the problem; we are This is not about the police.

At least, not solely. Granted, the police are the reason we are heartbroken today, the reason cable news networks are assembling panels to talk about black and blue, the fraught intersection between African Americans and the law. Last week, after all, saw two more AfricanAmerican men shot by police under questionable circumstances and then, five Dallas police officers assassinated by a sniper at a Black Lives Matter rally.

But ultimately another tragedy overarches both of those: America’s ongoing struggle to reconcile itself along lines of race. We are still fighting over what being black means — and should mean — in a nation that ostensibly holds equality as a foundational belief.

We say that’s what we stand for, yet in virtually every field of endeavor, our behavior proves us liars.

In education, for instance, the federal government issued data in 2014 documenting that even as early as preschool, African-American kids are suspended far more frequently than others.

In medicine, a 2016 study by researchers from the University of Virginia found that white med students

In labor, a 2003 study by the National Bureau of Economic Research found that job seekers with perceived “black” names were significantly less likely to get callbacks from prospective employers.

And in justice, oh, dear God. Multiple studies have documented a system that,

from arrest to incarceration, is heavily stacked against African-American people.

This is not abstract. This is blood and bone reality, life as experienced by more than 40 million Americans. And can any thinking or compassionate person blame them if they are sick and tired of it?

Yet rather than respond to expressions of that frustration and anger in constructive and compassionate ways, too many of us seek every cowardly avenue of avoidance we can find.

Some take refuge in defensiveness, answering complaints about subconscious and systemic biases as if you’d just accused them, personally, of membership in the KKK. As if their feelings were what this is all about. Others try to shout down the messenger, often using the absurd formulation that to talk about race is racist.

Go online if you’re not there already and read the message board beneath this column; chances are good you’ll see examples of both.

Then, there are those who try to change the subject.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 13, 1916: years “Down in the ago audience it was IN 1916 hot – extremely hot – but up on the screen it was cold with a coldness that the people who haven’t been in the Antarctic can not realize, when the Sir Douglas Mawson Antarctic pictures were shown in Fraser hall last night. It was an interesting summer night’s experience, many members of the audience asserted after the last of the six reels had been shown.”

of fomenting violence. King would probably find that laughable, given how often he was accused of the selfsame thing.

But again, to make this all about Black Lives Matter — or policing — is to make it too small. Granted, inequality becomes more visceral, visible and urgent when police are concerned, when we are called upon to tease out the role color played in some split-second decision to pull the trigger. But the point is, color also plays a role in the decision to punish a toddler, call back a job applicant, prescribe a drug, approve a loan, rent an apartment, or just extend the benefit of the doubt.

The police do not stand apart from society — they reflect it. And our society is riven by race, defensive about race, terrified of race. We say we seek understanding and light, yet too often generate only noise and heat. If America is ever to reconcile itself, that has to change.

It’s fine to demand better training, more body cams, more community liaisons.

But to lay the onus entirely on the men and women in blue is to delude ourselves.

Ultimately, the police are not the problem.

We are.

Guns’ chilling effect in the classroom

By John M. Crisp Tribune News Service

Professors at the University of Texas at Austin, my alma mater, are considering if and how their classes will be different this fall when, beginning Aug. 1, their students will be allowed to carry concealed handguns into campus classrooms.

Others have pointed out the irony of this particular date, which is the 50th anniversary of the day in 1966 when Charles Whitman lugged a small arsenal to the top of the tower that overlooks the campus and began to kill 14 people. The day was the iconic precursor of events that became so common that they acquired their own immediately understood designation: school shooting.

And a half-century later the only solution we’ve managed to come up with is to allow the students and professors to arm themselves.

The change is controversial. The UT system chancellor, the UT president, the Austin police chief and several of the state’s law enforcement agencies objected. In protest, a few faculty members resigned or retired, and last week three UT professors filed a lawsuit in federal court for the right to maintain their classrooms as gun-free zones.

Administrators and law enforcement are concerned that more firearms on campus means more shootings, accidents and suicides. The three suing professors have these concerns, as well as others.

They’re arguing that concealed handguns in the classroom will, according to my local paper, “chill their manner of teaching,” especially in courses that deal with “abortion, homosexuality and other topics that are

“

The desire to carry a concealed weapon into a classroom isn’t irrational, but concerns about the increased dangers that professors may face are far from ‘baseless.’”

often charged with emotion.”

This is the kind of reasoning that proponents of concealed carry and open carry find easy to dismiss as intellectual hand-wringing by effete liberal professors. In fact, Texas’ attorney general has already called the lawsuit “baseless” and “an insult to the millions of law-abiding gun owners in Texas and across the country.”

On the other hand, it’s easy to underestimate the depth of passion that attaches to contentious subjects such as race, abortion and, for that matter, gun control. And since a significant element of a college education involves exposure to ideas outside the so-called comfort zones that students grew up with, the professors’ concerns are not unreasonable.

Of course, most people who have concealed carry permits are ordinary, law-abiding citizens. On the other hand, 30 Americans per day are murdered with firearms, and I suspect that a significant number of the murderers were ordinary citizens who were overwhelmed by the passions of the moment and turned to what increasingly seems like a feasible option: one of the 300 million guns in our society.

Here’s another concern: At the end of each semester, college professors are required to make judgments about student performance and readiness for the next level. Sometimes these deci-

sions have considerable impact on students’ sense of self-worth, and, especially these days, they involve considerable sums in tuition and fees.

In fact, assigning several hundred A’s or F’s at the end of each semester has the potential to ignite much more passion and anger than are typically faced by judges in traffic court or small claims court, places where our society still prudently forbids guns.

The desire to carry a concealed weapon into a classroom isn’t irrational, but concerns about the increased dangers that professors may face are far from “baseless.”

And neither are fears about the “chill” that the presence of weapons may create. It’s worth noting that the law that permits handguns in classrooms emanated from an extremely pro-gun Republican legislature and governor. Generalizing only slightly, their goal is virtually no firearms restrictions.

And if you can force weapons into the classrooms at a university that many Republican legislators see as a holdout of liberalism in a very conservative state, you make nearly anywhere safe for unrestricted open carry.

About the “chill” that the presence of weapons might induce: Texas legislators and top officials have very definite positions on subjects such as abortion and certainly gun control; a “chill” on discussion at a place like U.T. could be thoroughly in line with their agenda.

The fact is, even if a gun never leaves its holster, if it’s present, it’s always part of the conversation.

Edgerton — Amazon is adding a 1,000-job fulfillment center in Kansas City, Kan. Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback and Kansas City, Kan., Mayor Mark Holland confirmed Monday that the e-commerce powerhouse will occupy an 856,000-square-foot industrial building. It is expected to open in late 2017 near Interstate 70.

The Kansas City Star reports that the developer asked for a tax abatement in June and said an “online sales fulfillment business” would be the tenant. However, the company was not publicly identified then.

DALLAS Hug by hug, handshake by handshake, good deed followed by good deed, Dallas is putting the terror of last week behind it, looking toward what everyone hopes is a brighter, better future.

Although people talk of having the breath knocked out of them, having their souls pierced by evil, there’s a palpable sense: This.

Will. Not. Stand.

Gut-punched and pierced, Dallas stands back up.

The words of Mayor Mike Rawlings capture the hit the city took — and how it will handle the future: “We may weep, but we will never whine,” he said.

“To a person, the citizens of Dallas are hopeful,” Councilman Adam McGough said Tuesday.

“We are responding with interfaith prayer. We are lining streets with American flags. Protesters and counterprotesters are coming together in the name of peace.

We want to be the end of the violence and the beginning of posi-

They spent more than a year trading barbs over policy and judgment. But Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders put that behind them Tuesday, standing side-by-side in a high school gym as Sanders endorsed his former rival and told a cheering crowd that Clinton would “make an outstanding president.”

“We are stronger together,” she said.

Sanders’ decision to endorse Clinton effectively ended his own long-shot primary campaign, which defied expectations and tested the notion that Clinton’s claim to the Democratic nomination was inevitable.

No additional joint campaign events have been finalized, and it’s unclear what Sanders’ role might be.

#NBCFail! Network blunders with Olympics tape delay Nancy Armour

narmour@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports

To celebrate the Rio Olympics and the latest advances in technology, NBC will be giving a few lucky viewers rotary phones and cathode-ray tube TVs! But you’d better hurry if you want to have a chance to win these high-tech marvels. Clip the entry form from this weekend’s newspaper and send it to NBC along with a self-addressed, stamped enve-

lope. Winners will be hand-selected at random and notified by mail!

Sounds ridiculous and hopelessly outdated, right? Well, so is NBC’s decision to delay its coverage of the Aug. 5 opening ceremony. The one-hour delay — four hours on the West Coast — is being done so NBC can provide “context” for the audience.

“These opening ceremonies will be a celebration of Brazilian culture, of Rio, of the pageantry, of the excitement, of the flair that this beautiful nation has,” NBC Sports Group chairman Mark Lazarus said Monday in announcing the decision.

“We think it’s important that

we’re able to put that in context for the viewer so that it’s not just a flash of color.”

Contrary to what Lazarus and the NBC folks would have you think, Brazil is not the moon or some exotic locale only recently discovered by the Western world.

Of course it has traditions and charms unique to its people and culture — same as London, Beijing and every other Olympic host. Or did they think Helen Mirren made up Queen Elizabeth?

Most viewers don’t really care what spin NBC puts on the ceremony. Social media and mobile devices have conditioned us to expect immediate results and infor-

mation, and anything less feels like a return to the Stone Age. If NBC won’t adapt, then viewers will simply go elsewhere for their information.

Britain’s BBC and Canada’s CBC are airing the ceremony live, which the CBC was only too hap-

py to point out.

“1-hour #Rio2016 opening ceremony delay? Don’t worry, CBC will have LIVE coverage,” it tweeted from the CBCOlympics account.

NBC has a long history of burying its head in the sand when it comes to its Olympic coverage and an equally long history of getting (rightfully) skewered for it. The #NBCFail hashtag has already been resurrected, as users grumble about the delay.

There’s no reaction yet from @NBCDelayed, the parody Twitter account. Probably still trying to figure out how to tweet from a rotary phone.

Dallas figures into plans for convention security Ambush included in Secret Service’s worse-case scenarios Kevin Johnson USA TODAY

CLEVELAND Less than a week before the opening of the Republican National Convention, the federal official overseeing security efforts said Tuesday that authorities are focusing on worst-case scenarios, including aspects of the deadly Dallas ambush that left five area police officers dead.

U.S. Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy said in an interview with USA TODAY that the yearlong preparations in advance of Cleveland and the Democratic convention in Philadelphia later this month included planning for “similar elements” of last week’s stunning assault in Texas, where heavily-armed former Army reservist Micah Johnson fatally shot officers who were accompanying protesters rallying against recent incidents of excessive force used by police.

“Yes,” Clancy said when asked whether security planning accounted for a scenario like Dallas.

“You look at snipers, you look at mass attacks, you look at protest groups large and small. You look at any possibility that’s out there.”

Still the director said authorities did not regard the thousands of protesters expected to descend here and in Philadelphia as a security threat and that no specific or credible threats to the conventions have been identified.

While Clancy said the Cleveland convention presented “difficult challenges” because of the

porters, asking them to sign a pledge to “continue the political revolution.”

Rather than asking them directly to back Clinton, he instead urged them to stand with him against Trump and help elect liberal candidates.

In the coming weeks, Sanders wrote, he will announce the creation of successor organizations that will carry on the fight represented by his presidential campaign.

“Our goal will be to advance the progressive agenda that we believe in and to elect like-minded candidates at the federal, state and local levels who are committed to accomplishing our goals,” he wrote.

Though he has known Clinton for 25 years, Sanders has downplayed their friendship, telling NPR last year, “I’m not gonna tell you we are bosom buddies.”

Tuesday in New Hampshire, as Clinton stood behind him, nodding her head, he said “it is no secret” that the two disagree on a number of issues.

But he said there was a “significant coming together” on the party’s platform, which he described as “by far the most progressive platform in the history of the Democratic Party.”

Sanders told the crowd the next job is to see that platform implemented by a Democratic House and Senate and a Clinton

Bernie Sanders campaigns with Hillary Clinton at Portsmouth High School on Tuesday in New Hampshire.

White House. “And I am planning to be in every corner of this country to make certain that happens,” he said.

Clinton noted that the two campaigns worked together on proposals she announced this past week. One would expand access to health care, and the other would eliminate college tuition for working families.

She called for action on Sanders’ priorities, including raising the minimum wage, combating climate change, regulating Wall Street and changing the campaign-finance system. She reiter-

ated her opposition to the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.

Over the years, she said, she’s gotten to know Sanders as a colleague and friend.

“His reputation for passionate advocacy hasn’t always made him the most popular person in Washington,” she said. “But you know what? That’s generally a sign you’re doing something right.”

Clinton told Sanders supporters they will “always have a seat at the table” when she’s in the White House and asked them

to sign up for her campaign.

“We accept $27 donations, too, you know,” she said, a reference to Sanders’ oft-quoted campaign contribution average.

The line drew cheers, but the crowd at Tuesday’s event included Sanders supporters — many holding his campaign signs — who showed unwillingness to accept Clinton as their nominee.

When New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said, “We need to elect Hillary,” she was interrupted by shouts of “No!” and chants of “Bernie, Bernie.”

“I’m a ‘Bernie or Bust’ person,” said Kathleen West, a farm manager from Gorham, Maine, who said she wanted to hear Clinton speak about her immigration policy and commit to supporting a $15 minimum wage. “I could possibly be swayed, but I want to see her not ride the fence.”

Michael Blum, a software architect from Chelmsford, Mass., left the rally in protest. He said Clinton “doesn’t support us” and is only paying “lip service” to Sanders supporters.

“What does she stand for?

Only flowery platitudes and ‘I’m not Trump’ — a stark contrast to Bernie and his issue-oriented message,” he wrote in a text.

Trump played off the disappointment felt by Sanders’ supporters, tweeting that he was “somewhat surprised that Bernie Sanders was not true to himself and his supporters. They are not happy that he is selling out!”

A memorial stone stands outside the house where Adolf Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria. Government officials plan to take over the house by eminent domain.

AUSTRIA TO SEIZE HITLER BIRTH HOUSE, MAY TEAR IT DOWN Angela Waters

Special for USA TODAY BERLIN Austria announced Tuesday it would take over and possibly destroy the house where Adolf Hitler was born to prevent right-wing extremists from using it as a pilgrimage site.

“The decision is necessary because Austria would like to prevent this house from becoming a ‘cult site’ for neo-Nazis in any way. It has been used repeatedly for this in the past, when people gathered there to shout (Nazi) slogans,” Interior Minister Wolfgang Sobotka said.

3 ARRESTED IN A PLOT TO HURT BATON ROUGE COPS

Police arrested three people after a pawn shop robbery Saturday night and uncovered a plot to use the guns to shoot police during weekend protests, according to Baton Rouge Police Chief Carl Dabadie.

Police said the four suspects inclQuded a 13-year-old. One suspect remains at large, Dabadie said during a news conference Tuesday. Six guns have been recovered, and two others remain missing.

One of the men arrested at the pawn shop told responding officers that the weapons were being taken so they could be used to harm officers during during demonstrations opposing police-involved shootings.

— WWL-TV, New Orleans U.S. IN MIDST OF RECORD HURRICANE DROUGHT

The U.S. is in the midst of an all-time record drought from hurricane hits, with only four strikes in the past seven years.

That’s the fewest in any sevenyear stretch since records began a few years before Abraham Lincoln was elected president.

This is according to an analysis of weather data prepared for USA TODAY by scientists at the Atlan-

tic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory. Accurate records for U.S. hurricane strikes go back to 1851.

One of the only comparably quiet eras was from the late 1970s to the early 1980s.

— Doyle Rice FLIGHTS TO CUBA SPARK SECURITY CONCERNS

Three House lawmakers introduced legislation Tuesday to block flights that the Transportation Department has approved between Cuba and the U.S. because of security concerns that the direct flights will ease the flow of bombs and terrorists to the U.S. The Transportation Security Administration, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security, must certify that Cuban authorities meet U.S. standards for screening passengers and luggage before direct flights are allowed.

But dozens of daily flights to 10 Cuban cities are scheduled to begin in September. The flights are part of a diplomatic thaw President Obama initiated to restore relations with the island 90 miles from Florida.

American Airlines has already begun selling tickets.

Although the German dictator’s family lived in the pale yellow building for only three years, the site has attracted right-wing extremists for decades paying homage to Hitler. Hitler’s Nazi Germany initiated World War II and killed millions of people, mostly Jews, during the Holocaust. Hitler killed himself in 1945.

MANILA An international tribunal issued a sweeping condemnation Tuesday of China’s claims and conduct in the disputed South China Sea, setting the stage for further escalation of tensions in the region.

China said it did not recognize the ruling, which it described as “null and void.” The case was brought by the Philippines over China’s vast territorial claims and island-building in the region.

The ruling from the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, Netherlands, is the first to address competing claims among a half-dozen countries.

The panel said any historic

rights to resources that China may have had were invalid if they are incompatible with exclusive economic zones established under a United Nations treaty.

The tribunal also ruled that China caused “irreparable harm” to the marine environment, “unlawfully” interfered with fisher-

men from the Philippines, and engaged in a land-reclamation and island-building campaign that is “incompatible” with international obligations.

“The award is null and void and has no binding force. China neither accepts nor recognizes it,” China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement Tuesday.

“China’s territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests in the South China Sea shall under no circumstances be affected by those awards,” the ministry said. “China opposes and will never accept any claim or action based on those awards.”

China has claimed virtually all of the South China Sea, a crucial waterway used for an estimated $5 trillion in annual trade. China’s claims are based largely on a vaguely drawn map.

Few details from Lynch as GOP lawmakers grill her on emails Donovan Slack @donovanslack USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Republican lawmakers pummeled Attorney General Loretta Lynch with questions Tuesday about the Justice Department’s decision not to prosecute Hillary Clinton for sending classified information on a private email system, but Lynch repeatedly declined to explain the legal basis for the decision.

GOP members of the House Judiciary Committee suggested Clinton was given preferential treatment, and they highlighted a meeting between Lynch and former president Bill Clinton on June 27, just more than a week before Lynch announced there would be no charges in the case.

Lynch testified that it would be “inappropriate” for her to discuss confidential briefings she received on the case and repeatedly reiterated that she took the rec-

ommendation not to pursue charges from career investigators and prosecutors.

She said FBI Director James Comey — who GETTY IMAGES said Hillary U.S. Attorney Clinton was General Lo“extremely retta Lynch careless” but should not be charged — has already provided more detailed information than is typical for a federal investigation.

And Lynch said the case was not influenced in any way by her 30-minute meeting with Bill Clinton, which occurred at his request on her government plane when the two crossed paths in Phoenix.

“I agreed to say hello,” Lynch testified. “We had a social conversation.”

Her refusal to elaborate on the legal basis incensed Republicans.

Rep. Bob Goodlatte of Virginia, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, issued a statement while the hearing was still in progress accusing Lynch of “dodging any responsibility to be forthright to Congress by referring members to the statements of her subordinate.”

Goodlatte said she should have recused herself from the email probe and appointed a special prosecutor, given her previous relationship with Bill Clinton. He appointed her in 1999 as the chief federal prosecutor in New York.

Goodlatte and House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, on Monday asked the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia to investigate whether Hillary Clinton lied to Congress in testimony about her email.

Democrats on the committee tried repeatedly to steer the hearing to questions about the spate of gun violence that has frayed community-police relations across the country.

@mattkrantz USA TODAY

Big gains from a handful of bigname stocks helped propel the Dow to record-breaking heights Tuesday.

Five stocks in the Dow Jones industrial average, including McDonald’s, Home Depot and insurer UnitedHealth, are the biggest drivers, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. Each of these stocks has contributed more than 100 points to the market measure since it hit its last high on May 19, 2015.

These five stocks together added nearly 700 points to the Dow, making them a top driver of the Dow’s 35-point gain from its last peak and enough to counteract the 13 Dow stocks that have fallen since then.

The Dow jumped more than 120 points Tuesday to 18,348, pushing past the 18,312.39 high set in 2015.

Seeing the Dow hit new highs is the latest confirmation of the power of this raging bull market.

The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index pushed further into record territory Tuesday after hitting a new closing high Monday. The S&P 500 was up another 0.7%.

But the fact that many of the winners hail from defensive industries such as health care shows that while markets are hitting highs, investors are still nervous, says Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO Private Bank.

“U.S. equity markets are breaking records led by defensive companies against a backdrop of lower interest rates,” Ablin says.

“To me, this seems like investors are stocking up on canned goods before a storm.”

Home Depot, riding a homebuilding and remodeling boom powered by perpetually low interest rates, has been the darling of the Dow. The stock is up 20% from the Dow’s former high and has added 155 Dow points since

then. Investors have high hopes for the company’s profit power.

Analysts are calling for the company to earn an adjusted $1.97 a share in the quarter ended in July, up 15% from the same period last year. Such rapid growth from a large company is in stark contrast to the rest of the S&P 500, which is expected to see adjusted profit fall roughly 5% during the quarter.

Another big winner is McDonald’s, which has benefited from the successful launch of offering breakfast items all day. The company has seen its stock soar 21.4% from the Dow’s last high, adding nearly 150 points to the measure.

Analysts expect its profit to start growing again, calling for nearly 8% higher adjusted second-quarter profit. That would be the third consecutive quarter of profit growth and a welcome change from the 8% decline in the second quarter of 2015. The company and stock are being driven by

“reorganization, new growth initiatives (and the) same-store sales turnaround,” says John Staszak, analyst at Argus Research.

Several health care stocks have lit it up, too, including Johnson & Johnson and UnitedHealth. Investors’ interest in defensive stocks that pay stable dividends has been a recurring theme in the bull, which plays into health care’s wheelhouse. Even if the economy were to cool, health care demand remains fairly stable. Shares of J&J and UnitedHealth are up 18.2% and 16% respectively from the market’s last high. UnitedHealth is currently yielding 1.8% and J&J yields a market-beating 2.6%.

Now that the Dow and S&P 500 have retaken their highs, that leaves just the tech-heavy Nasdaq — still roughly 4% below its high — to catch up. But there are plenty of big gains for investors to enjoy while they’re waiting on tech.

Pokémon Go gives Nintendo extra life Adds about $12B in value; Google, Apple, AR go along for ride Jon Swartz @jswartz USA TODAY

Pokémon Go hasn’t just turned augmented reality on its ear. It has revitalized the Nintendo brand, adding billions of dollars in market value to the gaming company in days.

And the smartphone game, in which players search for animated characters superimposed on real-life images on their phone screens, also adds to the fortunes of Google and Apple.

So far, Kyoto, Japan-based Nintendo, a minority holder in the developer of the game, has been the prime beneficiary. The value of Nintendo shares catapulted $12 billion, to about $30 billion — a prodigious payoff to its slow-evolving mobile gaming strategy — since Go debuted last week.

Nintendo shares jumped 13% in trading Tuesday after a 25% surge Monday, sending the Tokyo stock market rocketing for two consecutive days and feeding expectations for copycats from other gamemakers.

SAN FRANCISCO

“This shows a big shift for Nintendo, from being a hardware company to a software company.”

Bryan Buskas, AdColony

Hopeful investors anticipate a windfall in advertising and licensing revenue for Nintendo, part owner of Niantic Labs, which created Pokémon Go, and a 32% owner of Pokémon Co., which controls the merchandising of Pokémon characters. Nintendo also plans to sell a $35 handheld device called Pokémon Go Plus.

“This shows a big shift for Nintendo, from being a hardware company to a software company,” says Bryan Buskas, chief customer officer at AdColony, a division of Opera Mediaworks, where he oversees $250 million-plus in revenue from gaming companies.

Closer to Silicon Valley, Google and Apple are likely to benefit from the popularity of the game.

They operate the app stores from which the free game is downloaded. Tuesday, Pokemon was No. 1 on the Apple Store and Google Play, and had been since its Thursday launch.

Google benefits twofold: through its investment in Niantic, which spun out from Google last year, and the mainstream adoption of outdoor mapping technology and augmented reality, says Jan Dawson, Jackdaw Research’s chief analyst. “AR crossed over into the mainstream,” he says.

Amazon’s Prime Day has deals aplenty, little buzz Brett Molina and Elizabeth Weise @brettmolina23, @eweise USA TODAY

Amazon’s second annual Prime Day started with a checkout glitch, then turned into a more typical retail sales blitz, teasing online shoppers with a diet of discounted items from wacky to basic.

The end result was little drama and also little buzz but estimates of brisk sales for the Seattle online retail giant.

“I haven’t heard much reaction from people this year, and I think that in itself is telling. Going through Facebook, nobody’s bragging about the deals they’ve gotten,” said Marlene Morris Towns, a professor of marketing at Georgetown’s McDonough SAN FRANCISCO

School of Business.

Still, the end result was likely just what Amazon hoped for — a marketing splash that encouraged more people to try its Prime membership.

Amazon revealed the quantities of sales sold but no overall sales figures. For instance: More than 22,000 TVs were ordered in the U.S. within the first eight hours of the sale, according to Amazon. By noon Seattle time, Prime members in the U.S. had purchased more than 91,000 Instant Pots pressure cookers and all 23,000 iRobot Roombas the site had for sale. In the first 10 hours, members ordered more than 11,000 copies of the game Exploding Kittens.

There didn’t seem to be a huge jump in sales compared with last year, however.

U.S. Prime Day sales were in

AMAZON

line with Prime Day 2015 as of 5 p.m. ET, according to ChannelAdvisor, an e-commerce software company that works with about 3,000 online retailers, including marketplaces such as Amazon.

“It looks like Amazon has spread out the deals more,” ChannelAdvisor executive chairman Scot Wingo said.

Whether or not Prime Day makes a profit is beside the point,

said Charlie O’Shea, lead retail analyst with Moody’s.

“You’re going to get sales today, but you’re hoping to get loyalty later. And when (customers) come back, that’s when you’ll make your money.”

By offering a slew of deals and a free, 30-day Prime trial membership, Amazon hopes to convert the uninitiated into members.

Prime customers are vital to Amazon’s bottom line because they are lucrative, spending on average about $1,200 per year, compared with about $500 per year for non-members, according to Consumer Intelligence Research Partners in Chicago.

The strategy seems to work well. According to CIRP, 73% of 30-day trial subscribers go on to pay for a full year of Amazon Prime membership and 91% of first-year paid subscribers renew for a second.

Amazon also benefits in less obvious ways. Prime Day acts as a Black Friday test run, said Steve Osburn, chief supply chain strategist for consulting firm Kurt Salmon.

Tuesday, Amazon stock closed down 0.74% at $748.21.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch David Craig @davidcraig USA TODAY

NEW YORK The Standard & Poor’s 500 index closing at record levels the past two days made it official that the benchmark S&P 500 now is officially in its secondlongest bull market ever.

If it sounds familiar, it should.

At the end of April, the S&P 500 set a milestone by going 2,607 calendar days without a 20% pullback, better known as a bear market. That topped the 2,606day duration of the bull market that ended in August 1956, qualifying this as the second-longest bull in U.S. history, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices.

Except that came with a big caveat: The S&P 500 had to close at a new high to cement this as No. 2. If it had suffered a 20% bull

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

market drop before setting a new record, this bull market would have officially ended on May 21, 2015, when the S&P set its last closing high, putting it back to No. 3 in the longevity race.

So Monday’s 7.26-point gain to 2,137.17 made it official. The bull market is the second-longest ever at 2,682 days and counting.

However, this one has a long way to go before it overtakes the longest bull, which was 3,452 days long and ended in 2000.

Length is great, but the measure that really matters for investors is just how much the bull has increased their wealth. Since the end of the last bear in October 2007, the S&P is up 216%. That tops the 179% gain in the Dow Jones industrial average. The Nasdaq composite, struggling this year, has the best performance of the big three U.S. stock measures, up 294% in the bull.

Without change, big payouts may be thing of past Q: Is Seagate’s huge dividend safe?

Matt Krantz

@mattkrantz mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Seagate is one of the leading makers of computer storage devices that hold massive amounts of data. But what investors care about most is the company’s massive dividend.

The question is whether Seagate can keep paying it.

The company yields more than 8%, a stunning dividend payment if you consider that the Standard & Poor’s 500 is yielding around 2%. Seagate’s yield was even higher, roughly 10%, prior to the 22% jump in the stock price Tuesday to roughly $29.38 a share.

Investors were relieved Tuesday after the company announced additional restructuring that would reduce costs. Specifically, the company said it plans to cut 6,500 jobs, or 14%, of its headcount. The company also told investors revenue in the June quarter could hit $2.65 billion, which is about 13% higher than what investors expected a month ago, S&P Global Market Intelligence says.

Investors are hoping these changes can preserve the company’s quarterly dividend, which is 63 cents a share.

There’s reason to be concerned. Seagate’s dividend over the past 12 months is more than 200% larger than its reported profit. That indicates to investors the dividend isn’t all that sustainable unless the company makes changes.

EU, U.S. reach deal on new transatlantic data sharing pact Mike Snider and Elizabeth Weise USA TODAY

The U.S. and European Union have agreed on new privacy rules protecting data shared across the Atlantic.

The EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, which ensures the protection of personal data shared by companies doing transatlantic business, needed approval after the previous Safe Harbor agreement was ruled invalid by the European Court of Justice in October 2015.

That pact, used by some 4,500

companies, had smoothed transatlantic business with the requirement U.S. companies provide privacy protections equal

to those of EU companies. Such data transfer agreements are the lifeblood of large firms. Without them, they cannot share information with European partners or their own European offices.

In 2014, U.S. digital service exports to Europe were worth $187 billion and imports were worth $110 billion, according to a 2016 report by Daniel Hamilton on the transatlantic economy.

New provisions include improvements in the privacy violation resolution process and the appointment of a new State Department official, an EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Ombudsman to

handle any European complaints.

“For businesses, the Framework will facilitate more trade across our borders, more collaboration across the Atlantic and more job-creating investments in our communities,” Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker said.

Privacy Shield will mean more privacy for consumers, said Dana Simberkoff, compliance and risk officer at software vendor AvePoint. For consumers it means that in many cases they can limit what data they provide, and companies are obligated to use that data only for the purpose for which it was collected, she said.

The European court had ruled previous provisions protecting data stored in the U.S. were inadequate, compared with EU protections. Those concerns arose in the wake of the revelations from national security documents leaked in 2013 by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. U.S. businesses have supported the new pact.

Critics argue the Privacy Shield’s improvements do not go far enough. And the European Court could still decide that the extent of U.S. government surveillance makes the new Privacy Shield inadequate, he said.

HOW WAS YOUR DAY? GOOD DAY JENNIFER ESPOSITO Has Esposito made up with CBS? The former ‘Blue Bloods’ star has joined the cast of the network’s top-rated drama, ‘NCIS,’ for its 14th season. She will play Special Agent Alex Quinn, who is returning to field work after a stint as an instructor. The actress quit her old police drama in 2012 when the network wouldn’t accommodate a reduced schedule while she was suffering from the effects of Celiac disease.

‘Café Society’ star picks work that keeps the brood together Patrick Ryan USA TODAY

On the sun-drenched steps of France’s famed Palais des Festivals, Blake Lively was anointed red-carpet royalty at May’s Cannes Film Festival, thanks in part to her fairy-tale frocks.

“It’s funny, I didn’t realize I was dressing like a Disney princess until people told me,” says Lively, 28, sampling a spread of pastries and gelato at Tribeca’s Greenwich Hotel. Her favorite may have been Vivienne Westwood Couture’s powder-blue, Cinderella-style creation. “I remember going to Disneyland as a kid and thinking, ‘Ah, I want to do that one day.’ You get to live out a bit of your childhood fantasies when you wear a ball gown like that.”

It was Lively’s second time at the festival (after accompanying husband Ryan Reynolds in 2014) but her first for the premiere of a film in which she stars: Woody Allen’s Café Society (in theaters Friday in New York and Los Angeles, expands nationwide July 29). The filmmaker’s latest is a 1930s-set screwball comedy, following an ambitious young romantic (Jesse Eisenberg) torn between two women: a beguiling Hollywood assistant (Kristen Stewart) and a scintillating New York socialite (Lively).

When she auditioned, “I didn’t know anything about the movie,” Lively says. “It didn’t matter. It was being part of a film with an iconic filmmaker and somebody that writes complicated women.”

Lively was a natural fit for Allen’s material, her co-star says.

“He encourages his actors to fill in the spaces between his dialogue with their dialogue,” Eisenberg says. “She’s really funny, she’s quick and was comfortable in a potentially daunting situation.”

that erupted when a French comedian aimed a rape joke at Allen on the festival’s opening night.

“That was very strange, to have people joking about such sensitive things,” she says. “To speak to anyone’s personal life is a very,

very dangerous thing.”

But Lively has few qualms discussing her own life. The actress has been married for nearly four years to Reynolds, with whom she has an 18month-old daughter, James, and another child on the way.

Keeping their brood intact is paramount to the pair, who travel together and won’t shoot films simultaneously.

“We’ve both given up projects that we really love because we can’t keep our family together,” Lively says. “People often think their career is something they have to chase and maintain, but for us, we said, ‘Let’s always chase and maintain our personal life.’

“This is a career that’s like the

After Society and last month’s The Shallows, which surpassed box-office expectations, Lively will star in All I See Is You, in which she plays a blind woman who regains her eyesight. She calls it the “most rewarding acting experience” she’s ever had.

“There are so few roles for women that are dynamic and interesting, so to be able to have done three ... I just feel fortunate,” Lively says, breaking off a piece of a chocolate chip cookie.

“I hope that people like these movies, and I get to continue doing what I love.

“If not, I’ll just eat dessert all day, apparently.”

Occasionally, a movie manages to become even bigger than itself.

That’s certainly the case with the new Ghostbusters (in theaters Friday).

It’s hard enough to follow up the 1984 classic beloved by fans (even if 1989’s Ghostbusters II was entirely unforgivable). But when director Paul Feig had the audacity to replace the male cast with four of today’s funniest women — Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon — the backlash began in earnest, with the loudest voices carrying a clear misogynist tone.

We suggest you see the new film before deciding whether you love it, hate it or fall somewhere in between. But these were our thoughts when we did: THE NEW GHOSTBUSTERS HAVE CHEMISTRY (ALONG WITH DEGREES IN PHYSICS, ENGINEERING, ETC.).

The casting of four women as the new Ghostbusters has drawn praise and criticism, but there’s no denying the comedic chops of the actresses donning the tan jumpsuits. They play well off one another, with McKinnon’s Jillian

THEY AIN’T AFRAID OF NO TROLLS.

Harsh criticism of the trailer and casting gets a shout-out as McCarthy’s Abby Yates and Wiig’s Erin Gilbert read online comments after one of their ghost hunts that suggest, in sanitized parlance, that women have no business hunting ghosts. Their apt conclusion: Don’t read the comments.

HOPPER STONE, COLUMBIA PICTURES

The Ghostbusters: Abby (Melissa McCarthy), Holtzmann (Kate McKinnon), Erin (Kristen Wiig) and Patty (Leslie Jones).

Holtzmann a clear standout, mixing brainiac daftness with a touch of flirty naughtiness that would have made Bill Murray’s Peter Venkman proud. Jones’ Patty Tolan, the subway worker who joins the team, is just as smart and a little more grounded than her wraith-wrestling colleagues.

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR TRIBUTES.

Feig’s film honors the original, with cameos by inaugural Ghostbusters Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson, along with a funny, touching homage to the late

Harold Ramis. Original ghosts appear, too, including Slimer and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. THE SUPPORTING CAST IS TALENTED, BUT THERE’S NO NEW LOUIS TULLY.

by Veep’s Matt Walsh and Sam Richardson and Silicon Valley’s Zach Woods, while Cecily Strong joins her SNL sistren as an officious mayoral aide. There don’t appear to be any breakout characters along the lines of haunted Dana Barrett (Sigourney Weaver), hard-boiled Janine Melnitz

GHOSTS HAVE A SCREEN PRESENCE, BUT THE VILLAIN IS UNDERWHELMING.

Special effects have come a long way in 30 years. Let’s face it, even the hilarious Slimer is seriously dated. Feig’s new generation of ghosts are elaborately shot and impressive, especially Bess Rous as the slime-projecting Gertrude Aldridge Ghost.

But the new Ghostbusters has a villain problem: The new baddie is as middling evil as a guy named Rowan North (a troubled nerd played by actor and SNL writer Neil Casey) can be.

Even when Rowan takes on other forms, this villain gets lost in the convoluted and frankly underwhelming final act.

Wiggins: T’wolves should be improved

Can you dig it?

A regular at the draft lottery for more than a decade, Minnesota might finally be on the brink of NBA relevance again. Just ask one of the franchise’s young faces, 21-year-old forward Andrew Wiggins.

Since the dynamic wing left Kansas University early and became the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft, Wiggins trudged through a 16-66 campaign before experiencing a 29-53 season. But he doesn’t expect Year No. 3 to be so unbearable.

In an interview with NBA TV while attending the Las Vegas Summer League, Wiggins detailed how the team’s identity is in the midst of Wiggins an overhaul. “We are young, we’re gonna be playing hard, we’re going up and down, we’re gonna Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo be all over the place on SOPHOMORE HANNAH STEWART LOOKS TO SEE WHO IS PADDLING THE BOAT BEHIND HER to find sophomore Sammy Williams and junior defense,” Wiggins said. “I Taeghan Sharpe, right, during a team-building exercise called “Shipwreck” at the start of Lawrence High volleyball camp Tuesday at LHS.

The Miami Heat leads the league in drama, and it might not be done yet.

It was just getting started two summers ago when LeBron James departed the way he did, leaving a burning bridge across a river of bad blood.

It wasn’t done last week when the Heat and Dwyane Wade could not agree to avoid an acrimonious divorce dressed up in high-road love and thanks.

Now there might as well be a road sign warning Heat fans more drama might be ahead.

Chris Bosh.

The Heat hopes to avoid a head-on collision with the third and last member of its championship-getting Big 3.

In what will seem like about 10 minutes from now, the late-September start of Heat training camp will be bearing down on us, preseason games soon following.

There isn’t much time left, in other words, until the ultimate truth about Chris Bosh’s health and NBA future comes forth because the time will have run out on the company line about how the Heat and Bosh together are “hopeful” and “optimistic” that he will be playing this season.

By design, that has suggested a consensus and an agreement that might not exist.

It did not exist in May, when a frustrated Bosh resorted to social media, blindsiding Heat management, to make his case that he was healthy enough to return to the team for the NBA playoffs.

It does not exist today, with Bosh still not yet medically cleared by Heat doctors.

And there still is no assurance it will exist in two months as preseason practice nears and the decision whether Bosh plays is left to a medical opinion that might be in dispute.

A Heat source familiar with the situation said, as of right now, a team of club doctors has yet to medically clear Bosh, 32, to resume his career after two consecutive seasons interrupted in a major way by blood clots and the treatment of them.

Bosh, however, has a personal physician who already has OK’d his return to basketball.

It is understandable why Bosh agreed to appear last week on Bill Simmons’ new HBO show, “Any Given Wednesday” — but on the condition he not be asked about his medical condition.

To be asked, and to answer honestly, might have exposed a medical disagreement still being kept under wraps publicly.

The hope on both sides: That Heat doctors might clear Bosh after he has completed a six-month course of blood thinners in August.

The collision looming: If those doctors continue to not clear Bosh and the club seeks a medical retirement, while Bosh, backed by his own doctor, insists he is able to play. It could then come to down to a legal dispute that involves the NBA Players Association or the opinion of an independent doctor.

The Heat’s Big 3 era was a big success if short-lived, with four consecutive NBA Finals appearances and two championships, but the gradual end of it has been nothing close to smooth.

LeBron James’ departure blindsided the Heat.

Dwyane Wade left feeling underappreciated.

Now Chris Bosh floats in the murky gray, doctors deciding his future.

AUSTRALIA’S MICHAEL MATTHEWS CELEBRATES AS HE CROSSES THE FINISH LINE to win the 10th stage of the Tour de France on Tuesday in Revel, France.

Yellow jersey has quiet day at Tour de France Revel, France — Chris Froome had a relatively comfortable and quiet day in the yellow jersey.

The overall leader in the Tour de France finished safely in the peloton with all of his main rivals on Tuesday, nearly 10 minutes behind stage winner Michael Matthews of Australia.

“I wouldn’t quite say easy. The start was pretty much straight up with a 22-kilometer (14-mile) climb,” Froome said after the 10th stage. “But once we dropped down from there it was pretty straightforward.”

Aiming for his third Tour victory in four years, Froome maintained a 16-second lead over fellow British rider Adam Yates.

Dan Martin of Ireland was third overall, 19 seconds behind, and Nairo Quintana of Colombia was fourth, 23 seconds back.

A two-time runner-up to Froome at the Tour, Quintana was watched carefully by Froome amid thick fog on the tricky descent from Port d’Envalira, the highest road in the Pyrenees at 2,408 meters (7,900 feet), and the highest point in this Tour.

“With that mist and not being able to see much, it could have been like the Giro a few years ago when Quintana slipped off the front,” Froome said, referring to Quintana’s downhill attack en route to his Giro d’Italia victory in 2014. “I was just keeping an eye on him.”

Froome’s Sky teammates made sure that none of his rivals got in the early breakaway that included Matthews.

“The guys did a great job keeping me up front just in case things were to kick off. We were right there and ready for it if it did happen,” Froome said. “Tomorrow, we’re hoping for a similar day to today, another day we can tick off and get through without too much happening. Ventoux is definitely the next big thing we have our sights on now.”

After a mostly flat Stage 11, the next mountain-top finish comes on Thursday, Bastille Day, at the legendary Mont Ventoux. A day later, the race’s first time trial is over a hilly 37.5-kilometer (23.3 mile) course.

“Those are going to be two really important days for us,” Froome said. “Nairo has already said he wants to win on Ventoux so we can expect they’re going to give everything for that cause.”

Froome was also asked about mechanical doping, amid unprecedented checks for tiny, hidden motors in bikes.

“The more checks they do, the better everyone sleeps at night,” Froome said. “Someone would have to be pretty crazy to do it in the Tour de France, where they know they’ll check for it every day.”

Al-Jazeera America reported allegations

by Charlie Sly, who worked as an intern at an anti-aging clinic. But Sly later recanted his claims.

“I have met thousands of people during my career, but to the best of my knowledge and recollection, I have never met the individual who is apparently named Charles Sly,” Harrison said in the affidavit.

The 38-year-old Harrison, who was The Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year in 2008, also said: “I have never violated the NFL Policy Performance Enhancing Substances.”

NBA

‘Hack-a-Shaq’ ammended Somewhere, Shaquille O’Neal is smiling.

The NBA on Tuesday amended its rule for intentional fouls away from the ball, a move meant mainly to improve quality of play in certain situations.

The league currently penalizes teams that intentionally foul away from the ball only in the final two minutes of a game. The new rule calls for additional penalties in the final two minutes of each quarter. The penalty remains the same — a free throw and possession of the ball are awarded the team that was intentionally fouled.

“In looking at the data and numerous potential solutions to combat the large increase in deliberate away-from-the-play foul situations, we believe these steps offer the most measured approach,” NBA disciplinarian Kiki VanDeWeghe said in a statement. “The introduction of these new rules is designed to curb the increase in such fouls without eliminating the strategy entirely.”

O’Neal was the subject of countless intentional fouls away from the ball when he played for the Los Angeles Lakers.

Numerous players have been fouled on purpose in similar situations in recent seasons, including DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard and Andre Drummond.

NCAA FOOTBALL

Papers: Paterno ignored boy

Harrisburg, Pa. — Penn State football coach Joe Paterno, told by a teenage boy in 1976 that assistant coach Jerry Sandusky molested him in a shower, responded that he didn’t want to hear about it and had “a football season to worry about,” according to court documents unsealed Tuesday.

The boy, now a man identified as John Doe 150, said in 2014 that other boys in a shower heard him yell that Sandusky had just touched him sexually. He said he told several adults NFL about it before seeking out Paterno.

BRITISH OPEN

McIlroy stresses he belongs with best Troon, Scotland (ap) — Rory McIlroy still considers himself a fullfledged member of the Fab Four.

No chance he’ll get kicked out of the group, certainly not without putting up quite a fight.

As if to show he’s still as relevant as ever among golf’s elite players, even as he approaches the twoyear mark since the last of his major titles, McIlroy pulled no punches Tuesday leading to the British Open at Royal Troon.

He called out golf for its lax drug-testing procedures and questioned the relevance of his sport being part of the Olympics, saying he wasn’t even sure he’d watch it on television.

And, if there was any doubt that he still deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with Jason Day, Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth, McIlroy pointedly reminded everyone how they rank in terms of majors.

“I’ve got four major championships, and I’d love to add to that tally,” he said, “just as those guys would love to add to their one or two majors that they have and just keep going.”

Message received.

McIlroy missed last

year’s British Open at St. Andrews after tearing a ligament in his left ankle playing soccer with his buddies, denying him a chance to defend the title he won in 2014.

“I guess it’s the start of a new chapter for me in the Open championship,” he said. “I’m determined not to miss any more, for the foreseeable future anyway.”

He’s even more eager to add another major title to his trophy case.

Two years ago, McIlroy followed his victory at Royal Liverpool by winning again in the PGA Championship. He was the most dominant golfer in the game, the guy everyone else was chasing as Tiger Woods faded from view. But golf is a fickle game, and players such as Woods, who remain on top for years at a time, don’t come along very often.

In 2015, Spieth surged to the pinnacle by winning the Masters and the U.S. Open, and just missing out on a playoff at St. Andrews. Before the year was out, Day had claimed his first major title at the PGA Championship, holding off Spieth.

Then, at this year’s U.S. Open, it was Johnson’s turn to shine. After some

RORY MCILROY HITS HIS TEE SHOT on the 15th hole during a practice round for the British Open on Tuesday in Troon, Scotland. excruciating near-misses in the biggest events, he finally claimed his first major with a dazzling display at Oakmont.

“The game is in a great state,” said defending British Open champion Zach Johnson, one of only two players outside the Fab Four to win at the past eight major championships. “Great, young talents carrying it and pushing it. I don’t know if there’s a ceiling, but if there is, it seems like it’s being nudged a little bit higher month after month, year after year.”

Even though McIlroy hasn’t been a serious contender at the majors since

his victory at Valhalla, McIlroy sees no reason for concern. He’s still only 27, an enormous talent who surely has some of his best golf still in front of him.

He rolled his eyes when someone mentioned a reference in the British media that he was on the verge of becoming the Ringo of the Fab Four.

“Probably the first time I’ve been compared to the Beatles,” he said, managing only the hint of a smile. “I’m happy where my game is. I can’t worry about other guys. If I focus on myself and make sure that I’m playing the best that I can, I’m pretty

confident that ... I’m going to win more times than not.”

McIlroy has other things on his mind as well.

He called on golf’s major governing bodies to step up their anti-doping efforts, which he said are limited to a handful of urine tests each year.

“I could use HGH and get away with it, so I think blood testing is something that needs to happen in golf just to make sure that it is a clean sport going forward,” he said. “If golf is in the Olympics and golf wants to be seen as a mainstream sport as such, it has to get in line with the other sports that test more rigorously.

Ahh, the Olympics.

So far, it’s been the predominant story line in the buildup to the golf’s oldest major championship, with Spieth announcing Monday he would follow the lead of McIlroy, Day and Johnson by not playing in Rio next month when the sport rejoins the Summer Games for the first time since 1904.

All of them cited concerns over the Zika virus as the primary reason for staying away. But, while Spieth said Tuesday it was “probably the hard-

est decision I’ve ever had to make in my life,” McIlroy was much more cavalier about skipping the Olympics.

“I don’t think it was as difficult a decision for me as it was for him,” McIlroy said. “I don’t feel like I’ve let the game down at all. I didn’t get into golf to try and grow the game. I got into golf to win championships and win major championships.”

That was clearly a shot at golf’s Olympic boosters, who have said it’s the best way to spread the sport to nontraditional areas, with South America being at the forefront this year.

But McIlroy made it clear he’s not in that camp. In fact, he made it sound as if golf doesn’t belong in the Olympics at all.

“I’m very happy with the decision that I’ve made and I have no regrets about it,” McIlroy said. “I’ll probably watch the Olympics, but I’m not sure golf will be one of the events I watch.”

So, what will he watch?

“Probably,” he replied, “the events like track and field, swimming, diving — the stuff that matters.”

Another zinger from a player who has no intention of fading away.

The Lions, who graduated six seniors last year, will have plenty of new faces in new roles. But the team camp is a chance to do more than just play on the court.

the freshmen a lot more too, because there’s always a lot of people you don’t know,” Bird said.

“The summer really helps you get closer to people.”

Last season, the Lions finished with an 8-29 record, which Anglin said “was really like a roller coaster.”

Looking to improve from last year, the Lions met up about four times a week during June for their open gyms,

weightlifting and conditioning.

“We’re trying to get everything down,” Anglin said. “Get ready as a team this summer so we can be ready for the season.”

In addition to all of the high schoolers at camp, the Lions have seen about a dozen former players show up, helping out in any way they can.

“It’s been really excit-

ing to see all of the alumni coming back,” Magnuson said. “I think that says a lot about the climate of the program when people come back and want to help each other and want to be a part of the Lawrence High volleyball culture.”

With all of the extra work throughout the offseason, the Lions are excited to see how much it shows once the season arrives next month.

“I think we have a lot of really talented underclassmen that have just gotten better throughout the summer and throughout last year,” Bird said.

“They are ready to step up and help us win.”

Magnuson added: “We’ve had great leadership all summer. We’ve had a great turnout.

We’ve had good numbers with our younger kids, as well, which bodes well for our future.”

No. 5 overall pick in the draft). He’s a great player, as you can see the last couple of games (in Las Vegas) he’s played. And defensively he’s great, too, so he’s gonna help us with a big push.”

In Minnesota next season, Wiggins will

have a couple of new teammates who happen to be former KU players, too, in Cole Aldrich and Brandon Rush, both of whom signed with the T’wovles in free agency.

Before too long, Wiggins might be asked to keep all of the Wolves, includ-

ing his elder Jayhawks, in line. Those are the sorts of responsibilities that come with being one of the faces of the franchise.

And Wiggins said he isn’t quite as soft-spoken as he used to be.

“It comes with growth, with experience. I’m

going on my third year now, so I have a lot more responsibility than I did before,” said Wiggins, who averaged 20.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in his second season.

“I’m becoming more vocal, becoming more of a leader.”

starter for us (in basketball),” Taylor said. “He really did a good job as leader for our group. He always played hard, is a good kid. He’s somebody coach (Bill) Self will love to have around.”

Both Self and Vang cannot comment until the compliance office gives its OK following the review of paperwork.

Self did confirm Tuesday morning Vang was expected to join the squad.

Later in the day, sources close to the program said it indeed was a done deal.

“He’s a good shooter,” Taylor said of Vang, who hit 46 percent of his shots and 30 percent of his threes his senior year at Goddard. “Being a little older and not being a freshman right out of high school will be a huge advantage for him.

He’s more mature. He’s not going to be shocked.

He’s going to know what to expect. Playing for the women’s practice team and at the rec center he’s developed his game and matured a little bit. It’ll be exciting to see if down the road and after a year see if he’s one of those guys who can squeeze in a few minutes.”

It’s not known whether Vang will play two or three seasons. It appears he does have a five-year window available if he wishes to play three.

KU has three non-scholarship players on the team: Vang, senior Tyler Self and junior Clay Young.

KU coach Self at this time does not envision adding any more walk-ons. l Summer league: Kelly Oubre Jr. scored 16 points off 5-of-13 shooting (two of eight threes) with six rebounds in New Orleans’ 87-85 NBA summerleague win over Brooklyn on Tuesday in Las Vegas.

For the summer, Oubre has hit five of 23 threes. …

Cliff Alexander scored six points and grabbed four rebounds while playing 17 minutes in Portland’s 9289 win over Utah. Alexander was unclaimed after being put on waivers last week and has returned to the Blazers squad. … Perry Ellis scored four points with no boards in four minutes in Dallas’ 88-82 loss to Boston.

Hosmer, Perez homer in 4-2 AL victory San Diego (ap) — Eric Hosmer and Salvador Perez made sure the Kansas City Royals will start at home, sweet, home if they get a chance to defend their World Series title.

The Royals duo homered off former Kansas City teammate Johnny Cueto during a six-pitch span in the second inning, Hosmer added an RBI single to become MVP of the All-Star Game and the American League beat the Nationals 4-2 Tuesday night for their fourth straight win.

David Ortiz found himself in the middle of the most touching moment at Petco Park, embraced by his AL teammates near first base after exiting his final All-Star Game. The popular Big Papi plans to retire at 40 after this season with Boston.

Kris Bryant of the Cubs led the parade of sparkling young talent with a first-inning home run.

Dellin Betances flashed his 100 mph heat and Astros reliever Will Harris came on to throw a called third strike past Cardinals rookie Aledmys Diaz on a 3-2 pitch on the outside corner with the bases loaded to end the eighth.

Royals reliever Kelvin Herrera pitched a hitless sixth for the AL, which will open the Series at home for the 11th time in 14 years since the All-Star winner was used to determine the hosts for Games 1 and 2.

Kansas City became baseball royalty last fall, bursting to a 2-0 lead over the New York Mets at Kauffman Stadium, where Cueto pitched a two-hitter in the second game. The Royals won in five games for their first title since 1985.

This year, Kansas City is languishing at 45-43, seven games off the AL Central lead and in the middle of the wild-card race as attention turns to which teams will be buyers and sellers as the Aug. 1 trade deadline approaches.

Cleveland’s Corey Kluber pitched a 1-2-3 second inning for the win, and Zach Britton got the save for the AL, which cut its deficit to 43-42 with two ties Ortiz, Boston’s beloved designated hitter, wore spikes with gold-colored bottoms and matching batting gloves to mark his 10th All-Star selection and delivered the AL batting order to umpires at home plate.

Ortiz hit a smash down the first-base line that Anthony Rizzo snagged to rob him of a potential RBI double in the first and walked against Jose Fernandez in the third.

When Edwin Encarnacion came out to pinch run for him, Ortiz waved to the crowd and then spent his AL teammates came out of the dugout to exchange hugs as the crowd of 42,386 rose in tribute.

“I was supposed to hit a home run in my second at-bat. My boy told me he was going to throw me a fastball, and the first pitch was a changeup,” Ortiz said.

“Then 3-2 he threw me a slider and I’m like, “Are you trying to break my back?” But he said it was the catcher’s fault.”

Fernandez admitted “I couldn’t believe that I was actually pitching to him. We both looked at each other and smiled.”

“He signed the jersey I brought for him,” the 23-year-old Miami Marlins ace said.

Ortiz delivered a pregame speech to his mates.

“You don’t get here with a good name or a good family,” he said.

it out of the marinade letting the excess marinade drip off; coat the chop well with the bread crumbs.

In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil over high heat until it is hot.

Reduce the heat to medium and add half the chops. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, add another tablespoon of the oil

and turn the chops over, cooking them on the second side for another 1 1/2 minutes or until they are barely pink inside.

Transfer the chops to a plate; cover with foil to keep them warm. Repeat the procedure with the remaining oil and chops.

Top each portion with some chopped parsley; serve with a wedge of lemon.

olive oil, and the whole thing tastes like late spring has willed itself into a meal.

Would I eat this in November? Sure. But I am craving it now.

Sometimes I like salmon to be browned and crispy, but in this case I was going for a more delicate, poached texture so the herbs would retain their color, and the whole dish would be soft and gentle.

Summer is peak season for wild Alaskan salmon, which has a more pronounced salmon flavor than farmraised; I used Coho salmon here, with a deep, rich, reddish-orange color. Grab it when you see it.

You could cook the salmon ahead of time and let it cool to room temperature. Then dress and assemble the salads just before cooking, which makes this a great recipe for a relaxed summer lunch.

Directions: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a baking pan with nonstick spray, or lightly oil the pan. Place the salmon filets in the pan.

In a small food processor, blend together the scallions, 1/3 cup olive oil, dill, 1/4 cup parsley leaves, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spread the mixture over the salmon, and bake for about 16 to 18 minutes, just until the salmon is barely cooked through and flakes easily. Let cool for a few minutes in the pan, until just warm.

For the salad, in a large bowl, mix together the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, plus salt to taste. Add the lettuces, 1/2 cup parsley leaves and chives, and toss.

Divide the salad between 4 plates and place a piece of salmon atop each pile of greens, removing the skin if you wish. Serve while the salmon is warm, or at room temperature if you prefer.
