46-year-old Shawnee man was arrested June 24 By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos
The owner of Lawrence’s Super 8 motel accused of stabbing his wife last month allegedly did so because his wife was “fat,” according to the recently released affidavit that supported the man’s arrest. Navinkumar Patel, 46, of Shawnee, is charged with attempted first-degree murder after allegedly stabbing his wife twice in the abdomen at his Super 8 motel, 515 McDonald Drive. Patel According to the arrest affidavit — which details allegations only, not proven facts — Patel’s wife was standing in the motel lobby around 1 p.m. on June 24 preparing a bowl of cereal when Patel approached her with “an item behind his back.”

Judge denies state request on anti-abortion law
Journal-World obituary policy:
Topeka (ap) — A Kansas judge has denied a state request to rule that an anti-abortion law does not violate the equal protection clause or discriminate against women. The ruling is part of an ongoing lawsuit, in which the state faces a number of challenges to the 2011 law. The law places health and safety restrictions on abortion clinics and is under challenge by two doctors who provide abortions in Overland Park. The Topeka CapitalJournal reported Judge Franklin Theis ruled Friday against the state, citing a lack of evidence presented so far. The state wanted the judge to rule that the law does not violate the equal protection clause or discriminate against women in order to take the equal protection challenge off the table as the lawsuit proceeds.

KTA to enlarge culvert where driver died Emporia (ap) — Authorities say a culvert where a 21-year-old Texan died after losing control of his car during flooding on Interstate 35 needs to be enlarged. Zachary Clark, of Keller, Texas, was headed north last week when his blue Mustang hydroplaned, went off the road and entered an area of rapidly moving floodwater, according to a summary of the Kansas Highway Patrol’s investigation released Thursday by the Kansas Turnpike Authority. The Mustang floated for several minutes while being carried by the water about 150 feet to the culvert, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported. The rushing floodwater then pulled the vehicle, and Clark, through the culvert.
The summary report said the vehicle was recovered around 105 feet west of the culvert outlet and 115 feet south of it. Clark’s body was discovered around 25 feet southwest of the vehicle. A full report by the highway patrol is expected to be available this week. Turnpike authority CEO Steve Hewitt said that plans were already underway to replace the culverts, which channel water under the roadway. A permitting process for the project began around six months ago. Hewitt said design plans should help drainage in the area during large storms and runoff issues. The “very large, challenging” project will go out to bid later this year, and it will entail replacing the existing culverts with larger
ones. Hewitt said construction should begin in spring 2016 and finish by that year’s end. “I’m not sure even with the fact that we’re going to add additional, larger culverts in this area can we prevent every single accident out there, but we’re going to do our part,” he said. In the past decade, the turnpike authority has reviewed drainage areas along the roadway since the Labor Day weekend flood in 2003 that pushed several vehicles off the road, killing six people. A water level monitoring system was installed and plans to replace the culverts were a result of the reviews. Hewitt said digital message boards that display travel alerts will be added to the road.

and ran. An “unknown man” provided first aid and helped her call police, Lawrence Police Detective M.T. Brown wrote in the affidavit. Patel allegedly returned to the office “still carrying the knife,” but didn’t attack her. Lawrence police originally began to respond to a 911 hang-up, the affidavit said, because a “hysterical female” called police for help but hung up. When police arrived, an officer asked Patel if there was a disturbance going on, and Patel directed him to the office, according to the affidavit. Patel then handed the knife, which he still had in hand, to the officer, according to the affidavit. Patel then allegedly told the officer, “I stabbed her.” The officer ordered Patel to sit in the lobby as he inspected the woman, who was holding a bloodsoaked towel to her stomach. Medics responded and took the woman to Lawrence Memorial Hospital with two 2-centimeter stab wounds. She was hospitalized, but has since been released. After his wife was taken away by ambulance, Patel appeared calm as he walked from the Super 8 to enter a police vehicle across the parking lot. Once he arrived at
the police Investigations and Training Center, Patel allegedly said he was “punched in the face and that had made him angry. Before police could interrogate him, Patel invoked his Miranda rights and asked to talk to an attorney before making a statement. Patel remains in the Douglas County Jail on a $500,000 bond. He is banned from contacting his wife, returning to their shared Shawnee home or to the Super 8. The motel remains in business. Patel is scheduled on Aug. 6 for a preliminary hearing, at which a Douglas County district judge will listen to evidence to decide whether there is probable cause to bind Patel over for trial.

As Patel’s wife was sitting down to eat, Patel allegedly “began yelling at her and asking her why she was eating,” she told police. When she told Patel she was hungry, according to the affidavit, Patel allegedly began repeatedly telling her he was going to kill her. Patel would later tell police that “he was very ‘mad’ at ‘her’ because she was ‘fat,’” according to the affidavit. The woman claimed Patel displayed a black pocketknife and opened the blade. Video surveillance allegedly shows Patel lunging at his wife several times, and the wife “retreating from him as she uses a cereal box to shield herself from (Patel’s) attack,” the affidavit read. The wife eventually retreated into an office area, and Patel followed, according to the accounts of the video footage in the affidavit. She then tried to make a phone call, but Patel allegedly lifted her left wrist, stabbing her two times in the abdomen between her sternum and navel. She then broke away

Departing judges could exacerbate court delays By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press
Wichita — The looming departures of two senior federal judges in Kansas in the next couple of months are expected to exacerbate a backlog of cases in U.S. District Court in Kansas, creating heavier caseloads for fewer judges at a time civil litigation oftentimes already languishes for years in the federal courts. If they U.S. District Judge Richard Rogers, 93, all retired is due to fully retire from the federal court tomorrow, it in Topeka in August, would be far and U.S. District Judge more difficult Monti Belot, 72, is ex- for the active pected to fully retire from the Wichita feder- full-time judges to manage the al court in September.

Rogers, who was appointed by President Gerald Ford in 1975, took senior status in 1989 and has since then maintained a full caseload. So did Belot, who was appointed by President George H.W. Bush in 1991 and took senior status in 2008. Their continued service for years as senior judges epitomizes how the federal court system keeps working even as litigation steadily increases, new judgeships remain rare, and judicial openings go unfilled for months or years. But now — since their judgeships were already filled years ago when they first went on senior status — neither judge will be replaced when they leave the federal bench,

Girl Scout troop creates school garden By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde
As some Lawrence students leave their elementary school days behind them, they also are leaving a gift they hope will keep growing. Through the heat of Friday morning, a group of Girl Scouts worked on constructing a school garden at Prairie Park Elementary School, 2711 Kensington Road. The garden slowly took form as the scouts carried buckets and pushed wheelbarrows piled with mulch, dirt or rocks. “Their idea was to start a garden to give back to the community,” said Troop Leader Jamie McNally. The garden is the project of Girl Scout Troop 1550, as well as the culmination of months of re-
search, planning and design done by the troop’s 14 members, most of whom attended fifth grade at Prairie Park last school year, McNally said. The garden will have nine raised beds once complete, and its produce will go to the school’s cafeteria and food pantry. “In our schools we can get fresh fruit and vegetables for us to have for
our lunches,” Girl Scout Sally Hubbard said as she took a break from hauling mulch. The troop started planning the garden in September 2014 as part of its Bronze Award Project and used about $800 from its Girl Scout Cookie sales to help fund the purchase of supplies, Please see GARDEN, page 7A

‘Boot camp’ guides veterans back onto college track By Michelle Tevis Twitter: @LJWorld
Veterans may shy away from the idea of going back to boot camp, but this one puts them in classrooms, not barracks. Veterans in the Kansas City area who are preparing to return to school in fall 2015 or anytime in 2016 can sharpen their classroom skills at a free 16-hour Academic Boot Camp in August. The program is an opportunity for veterans who have been away from a classroom for a while — or even those who haven’t — to find out what to expect from a post-secondary education experience, said Lisa Schley, academic adviser
for Veterans Upward Bound in Kansas City, Kan. “For older veterans, there is so much technology used in the classroom now,” she said. “When I was in school, it was really just a spiral notebook and a pen, and now things have changed, so this can help with that transition.” Younger veterans may have good technical skills, and their academic skills may still be solid, but they may need help making a decision about where they go to school, Schley said. The four-day program is not trying to cram four years’ worth of knowledge in one week, Schley said. “We are just trying to do some prep work for them, just take away
“
We are just trying to do some prep work for them, just take away some of the fear factor.” — Lisa Schley, academic adviser for Veterans Upward Bound some of the fear factor.” Schley gave examples of topics she expects the boot camp to cover, from reading a textbook to finding the right offices on campus for assistance. “It may have been three, four, 10, 20 years since they’ve taken a test, and just how to take a test, study skills, those sorts of things,” Schley said. The program will also include assistance on catching up with math and English study skills. “This is a short-term,
fast-paced, interactive workshop that is vetfriendly,” said Julia O’Dell, program director for Veterans Upward Bound. “We will focus on assisting veterans as they return to the school or program of their choice, with an emphasis on preparing for lower-level mathematics and English language arts classes, as well as longterm strategies for success in school.” O’Dell said she anticipated having fewer than 25 in the class, which
would give students a chance to have some individualized attention. “We do want to be able to reach out and do things on a one-to-one basis,” she said. “That’s the challenge whenever you do a class with adults that are going back to school, especially if they are all going to different schools.” Kansas University’s TRIO Veterans Upward Bound (TRIO-VUB) office is accepting applications through Monday for the boot camp program, which will be offered from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Aug. 4-7 at the TRIO-VUB office at 400 State Ave. in Kansas City, Kan. This is the first time the boot camp program has been offered.
Although that Monday deadline is closing in, O’Dell said any interested veteran should contact the office regardless of the date. “For anything we do, we always accommodate the veterans that come to us,” she said. “If a whole bunch come to us on the 25th and 26th of the month, then we will figure out a way to take care of them.” O’Dell said if there is interest, another session may be scheduled, possibly before school starts this summer or this fall. Veterans may register online or call 913-321-5512. The free program has limited enrollment; participants may qualify to receive up to $40 to help defray transportation costs.

JCCC program offers ‘golden ticket’ to trucking industry By Michelle Tevis Twitter: @LJWorld
A shortage of truck drivers means the trucking industry is in need — and Johnson County Community College’s truck-driving program is there to help. American Trucking Associations estimates that the current shortage of drivers is roughly 35,000 to 40,000. But because of retirements, individuals leaving the industry and economic expansion, trucking companies will need to recruit nearly 100,000 new drivers a year over the next decade to keep pace with the country’s freight needs. There are two types of
commercial driver’s licenses: CDL A and CDL B. The B license allows drivers to operate singleunit vehicles like school buses, garbage trucks and dump trucks. The A classification allows drivers to operate combination vehicles like semi-trailer trucks. Phil Wegman, program director for Transportation Continuing Education at JCCC, said some students have their CDL B and have driven vehicles such as passenger buses or construction trucks. “They are normally interested in advancing from the CDL B to the A because it pays better,� he said. JCCC’s 160-hour CDL A program trains drivers over nine weekends.
“
Wegman said. And drivers who work for food companies such as Sysco, McLane or Heartland Meats, who also unload their trucks, can make double that amount. Overthe-road or long-haul drivers can average about $82,000 a year, he said. “The hidden secret here is, it’s hard work, it’s not very glamorous work, but a person can make a very good living driving a truck,� he said. However, Wegman said, you have to look beyond the pay. “Look at the work you’re going to be doing, because you’re going to have to be spending every day, at least eight hours a day, doing it, so you’d better enjoy what you’re doing, or it is going
The hidden secret here is, it’s hard work, it’s not very glamorous work, but a person can make a very good living driving a truck.� — Phil Wegman, JCCC director of Transportation Continuing Education Classes meet from 6 to 10 p.m. Fridays with the behind-the-wheel training scheduled from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. The format is a change from the previous fiveweek, Monday-Friday program, Wegman said. “We changed the program format to accommodate the person who works through the week and only has weekends available.� Wegman said the jobs are stable and the pay is good, and for the right
person it can be a perfect way to make a living. “Sometimes we refer to that CDL as a golden ticket, because it’s the ticket to getting a decentpaying job, especially if you had a job you’d been working, making minimum wage or maybe just a little bit over; this is going to pay a lot better than that,� he said. The starting pay for licensed commercial truck drivers is typically in the “upper 30s to low 40s� to begin training driving,
to feel like drudgery.� Rodney Wiseman was one of those people for whom the job is a good fit. He was in sales and service for professionalgrade lawn equipment at his family’s business when he attended an employment session for the BNSF intermodal rail facility in Gardner. An instructor from JCCC was there, and for Wiseman, it clicked. “I’d been around trucks all my life,� said Wiseman, who lives in Gardner. “It all kind of fell into place, I took a chance, and it was in my back yard.� For more about the CDL programs at JCCC, visit jccc.edu/academics/ transportation/commercial-drivers-license or call 913-469-8500.

Peaslee Center prepares for fall enrollment rush By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson
The Dwayne Peaslee Technical Training Center is preparing for a fall push of students enrolling in classes before its inaugural school year. In August the center will open, offering classes from Neosho County Community College, Johnson County Community College and Flint Hills Technical College, said Executive Director Marvin Hunt. The center, located at 2920 Haskell Ave., aims to educate people already employed in Lawrence’s workforce as well as those looking to snag their first careers or make career changes. Among the classes offered upon the center’s opening are construction technology and advanced manufacturing courses, Hunt said, but the facility hopes to quickly add HVAC (heating, ventilating and air conditioning) training areas and an auto shop. “We’re focused on career development, and we hope that we can find students who want to either create a career path or develop the one they’ve already got,” Hunt said. Currently the center has more than 70 adult students and around 120 high school students enrolled in classes, Hunt said. But the center is expecting a last-minute push of students as August approaches, which is typical of any school, he said. Construction and welding classes are fill-
“
It serves students from all different backgrounds, different employers, students midcareer who want to change jobs and students just starting out who want to pick a major. It’s all over the map.” — Loralee Stevens, instructor teaching at the center
ing up quickly, Hunt said. Many incoming students recognize that both skill sets can lead to high-quality jobs in many different areas, he said. The center is also hoping to increase enrollment in its manufacturing courses, Hunt said. Each course has a minimum number of students needed to be considered economically viable, Hunt said. “You need about seven or eight students to make a class go,” Hunt said. “And like all higher education or post-secondary training, some classes will make (the cut) and some won’t.” Loralee Stevens said she’s taught a class called Career and Life Planning for Johnson County Community College and this year will be her first teaching out of the Peaslee Center. “I’m very excited about the change of venue,” she said. “And the opportunity to participate in JCCC’s expanded curriculum and take advantage of classes from other community colleges is going to be great for Lawrence.” A departure from construction and welding
classes, Stevens said her course teaches students how to assess their skill sets and use them to enter the workforce. “We take interests inventory, strengths inventory and a work value assessment, then we focus on researching jobs, careers and companies,” she said. “And the last part of the course is focused on how to get a job, how to keep a job and how to be an outstanding employee.” Another benefit of the Peaslee Center is that the facility schedules its classes to accommodate virtually every type of student, Stevens said. “It serves students from all different backgrounds, different employers, students mid-career who want to change jobs and students just starting out who want to pick a major,” she said. “It’s all over the map.” Classes at the Peaslee Center will be open for enrollment until the day they begin, Hunt said. The center’s first class will start Aug. 12. More information and enrollment opportunities can be found online at peasleetech.org or by calling 865-4426.

Judges CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
said U.S. District Judge J. Thomas Marten, the chief judge for federal courts in Kansas. That means the loss of the two senior judges just a month apart will leave Kansas with just five active district judges handling all the criminal cases in the federal courts, and three remaining senior judges who have opted to hear only civil cases. Kansas has one federal judicial vacancy that has been unfilled for a year, and Marten anticipates it will likely remain empty until after the next presidential election. To put it in some perspective, consider that last year federal judges in the state closed 1,956 cases, a figure that represents the number of defendants sentenced or civil cases ended. It does not include the criminal and civil cases they handled that are still open. The federal courts in Kansas already have trials booked as far ahead as 2017 for civil cases, Marten said. At times, between eight and 12 federal trials are scheduled for the same day in Kansas, with the expectation that 98 percent of them will settled or plead out before actually going to trial. Nationwide, senior status judges handled 24 percent of all civil and criminal cases that were closed last year, up from 14 percent in 1996, according to a study released this month by Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. But In Kansas, the share of cases handled by senior judges last year is far higher: encompassing 48.5 percent of the workload, according to the TRAC study. Kansas has the eighth-highest percentage
of cases handled by senior judges among U.S. states. “Senior judges play a critical role in dispensing justice in the nation’s federal courts,” said Charlie Hall, spokesman for the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. “If they all retired tomorrow, it would be far more difficult for the active fulltime judges to manage the court’s cases.” Holly Dyer, an attorney who serves as president of the Wichita Bar Association, expressed concern about whether the state will have enough judges left to handle the caseloads at its three federal courthouses in Topeka, Wichita and Kansas City, Kan. She worries about the speed of cases getting resolved when there are fewer judges to handle them. Both Belot and Rogers have left their mark in Kansas during their long years on the bench. Rogers reopened the Brown v. Topeka Board of Education case that led to building magnet schools in Topeka. He also handled a Kansas prison overcrowding lawsuit that resulted in the construction of the El Dorado prison and improvements at other state correctional facilities. Belot presided over a number of high-profile criminal cases, including the first U.S. trial related to the Rwandan genocide. Among the others were the prosecution of a Haysville doctor and his wife accused of a moneymaking conspiracy that led to 68 overdose deaths and the case of an avionics technician who recently admitted to having plotted a suicide bombing at a Wichita airport. Marten, who serves with Belot in Wichita, also said he sees the impact of his colleague’s departure on a personal level: “We are going to miss him, not just his work on cases.”

When heat rises, keep your pets safe and cool
W
e all know that summers in Kansas are hot, and although everyone loves having fun in the sun with friends and family, it’s important to remember that high temperatures can be dangerous for our furry friends. Pet owners should take precautions to keep their four-legged family members cool and hydrated during the summer months. Allowing pets to become overheated can have disastrous consequences when owners are not aware of the dangers that hot weather can present. Heat exhaustion is the first step toward heat stroke and, if caught early, can easily be alleviated. Symptoms can include: l Heavy panting l Weakness or signs of confusion l Dizziness l Nausea l Fast heart rate l Dark colored urine (which can indicate dehydration) Heat stroke is more serious, and pets must be treated very quickly. Symptoms can include:

McNally said. The project necessitated long-term planning and organizational skills by the troop members, McNally said. “They got to learn about all the steps that need to happen,” she said. Along the way, the troop coordinated its effort with the Lawrence school district’s Farm to School program, and with its support roughly doubled the size of the garden. As part of the Farm to School program,

(although in severe cases the temperature can fall very low) l Either bright red or pale tongue and gums l Thick, sticky saliva l Depression l Weakness l Dizziness l Diarrhea l Shock l Coma l Sudden complete cardiovascular collapse If you notice that your pet has any signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke, it is important to act quickly. Move your pet to a shaded or air-conditioned environment, wet down its coat or apply cool towels to its head, neck and chest, and offer it cool (not cold) water to drink. Then, take
it to your veterinarian immediately for an exam. Help protect your furry family member from heat exhaustion and heat stroke with these important tips: l When outdoors, make sure your pets have a shady area to relax, and do not leave them outside for extended periods of time. l Make sure clean, fresh water is available for all animals at all times. l Never muzzle any dog that is going to be left outside. l Avoid walks and runs during the hottest parts of the day. Sudden heat stroke during strenuous activity can lead to sudden collapse and death! When you do go out on walks, be sure to take water with you to provide a source of hydration and internal cooling for your pet. (Don’t forget to take water for yourself, as well.) l Avoid walking animals on hot concrete or asphalt. Hot surfaces such as these can cause burns to the paw pads. Remember: if it’s too hot for your bare feet, it’s too hot for your pet’s feet. l If your pets must be outside during a hot time of day, wet them down and provide a child’s swimming
pool filled with water to help them stay cool. l Never leave an animal in a car for any length of time when it is warm outside. Even on a day that doesn’t seem hot to you, the inside of a car can quickly reach dangerous temperatures. In the city of Lawrence, it is illegal to leave an animal in a car for longer than five minutes if the temperature is 80 degrees or higher (or 30 degrees or lower). If you see an animal in distress in a hot car please take the initiative and call 911. You may save a life. Remember, hot dogs are only good for picnics. By knowing the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke, you can help prevent them in the first place, which will allow you to enjoy summer fun with your furry companion.
each grade level will have its own bed, and the garden will be coordinated with health and nutrition curriculum in the classroom, said Denise Johnson, the district’s K-12 Health and Wellness Administrator. “The goal is to have a deeper understanding of nutrition and of where food comes from,” Johnson explained. Farm to School, a districtwide Kansas Department of Agriculture program, already helps support school gardens at all of Lawrence’s middle schools, and Johnson said they plan to expand the program to the elementary schools as well.
The produce grown in the school gardens helps get more local produce into cafeteria meals, said Crystal Hammerschmidt, Farm to School coordinator. “It’s making sure we’re putting these healthy options in front of kids so they have the ability to choose,” she said. In addition to the Farm to School team, family members of the troop, a few Lawrence Cub Scouts and members of the Prairie Park Boys and Girls Club also helped with the garden, a collective Hammerschmidt said was a testament to the garden’s communal aspect. “This is incredible to have
all these people and all these hands out here,” she said. While McNally said the troop plans to put in a few workdays in the future as part of its community service projects, most of the garden’s care will be left to Prairie Park students. Girl Scout Shelby Bointy, who will be a sixth-grader at South Middle School next school year, said the benefits of the garden go beyond the produce. “I think it can help teach little kids the responsibility of taking care of things,” she said. Sally agreed, adding, “Our hope is to pass it on and hopefully it can stay alive for a very long time.”

ecently, solar power activists, many from California and other states, have launched an aggressive campaign that misrepresents the commonsense approach to renewable energy that we’re proposing.
As the largest provider of renewable energy in Kansas, we’re proposing a rate plan with the Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) that promotes future rooftop solar development in a way that is fair for everyone, not just a few. We don’t believe big California solar companies are looking out for the best interests of Kansans when they try to force rates that let solar panel owners use the electrical grid without paying their fair share of the cost. Customers with solar panels still need the grid 24/7 just like the rest of us, so they should help pay for it. Westar promotes a commonsense approach to renewable energy that protects the interests of all Kansans. We follow a few simple principles, consistent with what our customers tell us: • More than 90% of Westar customers like the idea of more renewable energy. We like it, too. In fact, by the end of 2016, more than 20% of the electricity used by Westar customers will come from renewable sources. • 80% of our customers believe they should not have to pay more to cover the grid costs for those with rooftop solar. On July 21 in Topeka and July 23 in Wichita, our regulator, the KCC, will conduct public hearings on our pending application that addresses pricing structures for those customers who want to use solar energy. The voices of out-of-state solar activists will be loud, and we don’t blame them for wanting to protect their subsidies. As a customer, you too can have your voice heard at these public hearings. If you are interested in our plan, go to: WestarEnergy.com/2015RateRequest. As your neighbors, we are proud to provide safe, reliable and clean energy to Kansans every day at an affordable cost that’s fair to all of our customers. Sincerely, Westar Energy employees Survey Source: Kansas Solar Energy Survey, June 5-8, 2015. Available at WestarEnergy.com/2015SolarSurvey

Husband’s daughter, children a source of stress Dear Annie: I have been married for 20 years. When I met my husband, he already had a grown daughter from his first marriage who was living independently in another state. “Beth� and I have never been particularly close. Seven years ago, Beth married a man who ran off within six months, and she has no clue where he is. He doesn’t pay child support, and the authorities cannot find him. Her twin girls are now 7 years old and completely undisciplined and unstable. I don’t particularly enjoy Beth’s company or that of her children, and neither does my husband, but we do our best to have a decent relationship with them. The problem is, I am terrified something will happen to Beth and my husband and I will be responsible for the twins. There is no one else. At

my age, I do not have the physical or emotional capability to raise them, and I don’t think my marriage would survive the stress. If Beth runs off or dies, are we responsible for these children? I have told her that her father and I are not able to raise her kids, but as far as I know, Beth has made no guardianship arrangements with anyone else. I feel like a terrible person, but it is becoming a major stress factor in my life.
Kingsley returns to form in ‘Tut’ Boy’s dad dies. Boy marries sister. Boy grows older and wise enough to know that his mascara-wearing mentor is a toga-wearing back-stabber. And that boy is “Tut� (8 p.m., Spike). Spike departs from its usual fare for an epic and ambitious three-night, six-hour miniseries about the life of Egypt’s fabled King Tutankhamun (Avan Jogia). Ben Kingsley stars as Ay, Tut’s adviser or grand vizier, whose ambitions do not always coincide with his pharaoh’s health and safety. Sibylla Deen (“Tyrant�) plays Tut’s bride/sister, a gorgeous woman who has a thing for Ka (Peter Gadiot), Tut’s best childhood friend and martial arts instructor — a swordsman, if you will. For his own part, Tut has a thing for Suhad (Kylie Bunbury), a half-caste beauty raised by a rival tribe. When incest is mandatory, adultery becomes admirable, even romantic, in this retelling of very ancient history. Not that such boy-cheats-with-girl stories exactly drive the plot. It’s not entirely clear who will navigate to this six-hour affair. Fans of biblical epics tend to think of the Egyptians as the heavies, and “Game of Thrones� fans may find this tale entirely too straightforward. For all its attempts at grandeur, the 1300 B.C. set design is fairly limited. And there’s just so much you can make of sun and sand. It takes a good 45 minutes to get to some good old-fashioned ultra-violence. To use an expression that is surprisingly apt, “Tut� is a bit like kissing your sister — a “new� departure that is strangely familiar, a reminder of network miniseries of yore.

Shaping retail
Imperfect deal is better than alternative By Eugene Robinson The Washington Post Writers Group
The City Commission has the opportunity to build strong retail with new developments. When the South Lawrence Trafficway is completed next year, shoppers certainly will be among the motorists it carries. That part is easy to predict. What’s harder to know is whether the road will be full of shoppers looking to spend more money in Lawrence, or simply looking for a faster route to take their wallets to their favorite out-of-town shopping center. Lawrence city commissioners can help shape the answer. Plans have been filed to build an approximately 250,000-square-foot shopping center at the southeast corner of the future South Lawrence Trafficway and U.S. Highway 59 interchange. Developers haven’t yet announced tenants for this particular project, but the project is being led by a development group that previously announced it had Academy Sports, Old Navy, Designer Shoe Warehouse, Marshalls/Home Goods and other large retailers interested in coming to Lawrence. Those retailers were interested in a much larger proposal for the same site at the SLT and Iowa Street interchange. That project last year never even made it to the Lawrence City Commission for a vote because it became clear that it did not have the needed support from commissioners. Three of the five city commissioners, however, are new since April’s elections. This scaled-down project deserves a new, more positive response from commissioners. Never has it been more important for Lawrence to stem the flow of shoppers leaving town to make purchases. The state of Kansas has sent a clear message that cities will need to be more reliant on sales tax collections in the future. Starting in 2018, a new law will begin that will make it cumbersome for cities to approve property tax increases that are greater than the rate of inflation. One likely result is that communities — if they are blessed enough to have a retail base — will become more reliant on sales tax collections. Having a strong retail base, though, is a key ingredient for future success. This project — dubbed Southpoint — will strengthen Lawrence’s retail offerings. Many opponents of the project will note that there are already retailers in the community that sell sporting goods, or clothing, or shoes, or the other items that may be staples of the companies mentioned above. That is true, but it also is true that community leaders have expressed concern about the amount of retail spending that leaves the city. You can tell Lawrence shoppers they have enough selection and choices today, but you may go broke doing it. Communities that seek to rely more heavily on sales tax collections also must think of how they can attract more shoppers from outside the community. No, this development may not attract many shoppers from Kansas City or Topeka where such brands already exist. But with the recently completed, four-lane expansion of U.S. Highway 59, the site is very convenient for shoppers in Ottawa and other points to the south. It is realistic to think that shoppers in Ottawa would rather make the quicker drive to Lawrence than deal with the bigger city hassles of Kansas City. Lawrence city commissioners need to determine whether this development firm can deliver the type of desirable retailers in demand by Lawrence shoppers, whether this project can be accomplished without expensive public incentives — thus far, none have been requested — and whether this piece of property is suited for retail development. There are good reasons to believe those questions can be answered positively. There are even better reasons to believe Lawrence will need developments like this to keep our community’s finances healthy well into the future.

Washington — To understand why the Iran nuclear deal is such a triumph, consider the most likely alternative: war. Imagine a U.S.-led military strike — not a pinprick but an extended bombing campaign robust enough to eliminate 98 percent of Iran’s enriched uranium, put two-thirds of the Islamic republic’s centrifuges out of action and erase any capability of producing plutonium. Imagine that the attack did so much damage that for the next 10 or 15 years it would be utterly impossible for Iran to build a nuclear bomb. Such an outcome would be hailed as a great success — achieved, however, at a terrible cost. But I’m convinced such action would make Iran irrevocably determined to build a bomb — and that eventually the Iranians would achieve their goal. I’m also convinced that Iran would strike out at the West asymmetrically, through proxy groups and terrorism. And given the upheavals in the Middle East, any “limited” war has the potential to spread across borders. The historic agreement announced Tuesday in Vienna accomplishes what an attack might, but without the toll in blood and treasure that war inevitably exacts. After
“
None of the United States’ partners at the negotiating table — the European powers, China, Russia — is prepared to accept a nuclear-armed Iran.”
the agreement expires, critics note, Iran could decide to race for a bomb. But the military option would still be available — and, after years of intrusive inspections, allied war planners would have a much better idea of where the nuclear facilities are and how best to destroy them. Military action is not the only alternative to the deal that President Obama vigorously defended at his news conference Wednesday. But the other possibilities are absurdly remote. One is simply to acquiesce and invite Iran to become a nuclear power. Obama has ruled this out, as did his predecessors and as will his successors. It should be noted that Iran’s leaders have always denied seeking to make a bomb, though they have never explained why an oilrich nation would need tens of thousands of enrichment centrifuges and a ballistic missile program to generate nuclear power. None of the United States’ partners at the negotiating table — the European powers, China, Russia — is prepared to accept a nuclear-armed
Iran. The government in Tehran, which is fanatical but not suicidal, probably would be satisfied to reach threshold status. Arguably this is already the case, given that Iran’s scientists have mastered the nuclear fuel cycle. The other option — the one favored by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and most other critics of the agreement — is to negotiate “a better deal” that deprives Iran of even more nuclear capability. The problem is that negotiators could not make tougher demands on Iran than the Chinese, Russians and Europeans were prepared to support. If Congress overrides Obama and squelches the deal, the sanctions regime that brought Iran to the table will quickly crumble. Economic pressure from the United States alone, it seems obvious, is not enough to compel Iran to give up more than it surrendered in Vienna. On the contrary: Hard-liners in Tehran, who argued all along against negotiating with the United States, would have their hand greatly strengthened. Iran’s reaction to a defeat
of the agreement in Congress might be to crank up the centrifuges in defiance. Perhaps the government would honor some elements of the deal in order to obtain sanctions relief from China, Russia and Europe. Obviously, the United States didn’t get everything it wanted in Vienna. That’s the nature of any negotiation. The relevant question is whether the United States and its allies, including Israel, got what they needed. “With this deal, we cut off every single one of Iran’s pathways to a nuclear program, a nuclear weapons program,” Obama said Wednesday. “Without a deal, those pathways remain open.” The president added that “the alternative, no limits on Iran’s nuclear program, no inspections, an Iran that’s closer to a nuclear weapon, the risk of a regional nuclear arms race, and the greater risk of war — all that would endanger our security. That’s the choice that we face.” The agreement with Iran is a landmark achievement. It’s not perfect — no deal is — but it makes the world a much safer place. Critics in Congress should have to explain to the American people why they believe war is a better idea. —Eugene Robinson is a columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group.

So, Donald Trump is number one? He’s number one?! Yes, it’s an early poll and, as such, pretty near useless. Yes, Herman Cain was once number one, too, and we know what happened with that. Yes, the fact that he is number one probably reflects name recognition as much as anything else. And no, he will never be his party’s nominee, much less this country’s president. It won’t happen even if GOP Chairman Reince Priebus has to personally shoot him with tranquilizer darts on the way to the podium to stop it. All that said, don’t let anyone tell you it means nothing that Donald Trump has surged to the top of the Republican field, according to a new USA Today/ Suffolk University poll. Don’t let anybody say we ought not note with alarm the fact that 17 percent of Republicans think this loud-mouthed, attentionseeking self-aggrandizing carny barker is fit to be president. Trump has climbed six percentage points since June, vaulting ahead of Jeb Bush, who remained steady at 14 percent. The billionaire developer and reality show host did this because of, not despite, a portfolio of absurd promises, xenophobic rhetoric and preposterous assertions. He’s the guy who’s going to build a wall on the Mexican border to keep the “rapists” out — and somehow make Mexico pay for it. He’s the guy who’s going to bomb the oil fields of Iraq as a way of defeating ISIS. He’s the guy who’s still not sure Barack Obama was born in the USA. He’s the guy who says our gross domestic product has fallen below zero (it hasn’t), and American nukes don’t

work (they do). And what do 17 percent of Republican votes see in this cornucopia of the bizarre? Let 59-year-old Steve Fusaro of San Clemente, Calif., speak for them all: “He’s got some backbone,” he told pollsters. Backbone. Apparently, that’s what nearly one in five Republican voters sees in Trump. As a result, some of us are forced to see in them a fresh, depressing sign that the party of Lincoln, Eisenhower and Reagan is not yet ready to come in out of the cold. It — or at least, a significant fraction of it — continues to embrace a politics of bigotry and resentment, an estrangement from objective reality and a belief that the simplest, most simple-minded solution shouted in the loudest voice equals wisdom. Once upon a time, the Republican Party was a sober-sided collective that strategically pandered to the resentments of a loud, fractious, ultraconservative wing. But increasingly,
that tail now wags this dog. And if you disagree, go back to the top and read it again: Trump is number one? Sure. Why not? Didn’t he promise to build that wall and make Mexico pay for it? There you go, right? Immigration solved, right? Well ... no. But the very fact that so many of us apparently think so provides a vivid illustration of the antiintellectualism and deep-fried yahooism now holding the Republican Party hostage. Somehow, the party of Teddy Roosevelt, Gerald Ford and Bush the elder has become the party of secession talk, revolution talk and vigilantes harassing children on the Southern border, the party of the “war on whites,” “the war on Christmas,” tea parties and birthers, the party of anti-science, antihistory and fear that the U.S. military is, right this moment, preparing for the invasion of Texas. In a word, the party of crazy. Small wonder it is also the party of Trump. Yes, cooler heads will soon prevail and some establishment candidate will carry the banner into battle. But don’t let that tempt you into being sanguine about this insane moment when the leader of the Republican field is a two-legged id with an incontinent mouth. We should take no solace in the fact that Trump will eventually fall from his lofty perch. Rather, we should wonder what it says about the GOP that he was up there in the first place. —Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

LAWRENCE

L awrence J ournal -W orld
Equal CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
proclaiming in bright, rainbow-colored letters the words “Freedom Coalition,” the local gay rights organization that, 20 years ago this year, led a years-long grassroots campaign to make Lawrence the first city in Kansas to pass an ordinance protecting gays and lesbians from discrimination. That campaign, and the ordinance that followed, came to be known as “Simply Equal.” Silverman said it’s hard not to be amazed at how much has changed in Lawrence, and in the United States, in just the two decades that followed. “It seems ridiculous that in Lawrence, Kansas, of all places, 20 years ago, something this innocuous was ridiculously controversial,” he said. “Now this year, we have samesex marriage nationwide, and history has moved on, which is a very nice thing.” Opening the bag, Silverman pulled out handfuls of gay rights campaign buttons, some dating from the 1980s through the late 1990s. And there were piles of newspaper clippings, including numerous letters to the editor of the Journal-World expressing both strong support and opposition to the idea of an anti-discrimination law for gays and lesbians. There are also stacks of papers and hand-written notes that underscore how much political campaigns, and the technology they use, have also changed over the years. “It was a wonderful case study about social activism, recalled Kathy Greenlee, who was one of the political organizers behind Simply Equal.
Origins of the movement Greenlee recalled that the Freedom Coalition began in the early 1990s, shortly after a high-profile incident in which a 22-year-old Native American man, Gregg Sevier, was shot and killed by Lawrence police officers. “After Gregg Sevier’s death, the city really organized around issues of diversity and human rights,” she said. “I think there was an opportunity to look differently at how we treat people.” Greenlee said she joined the Freedom Coalition about a year after it got started. The principal founder and organizer, she and others said, was Ben Zimmerman, a Kansas University professor emeritus in the School of Social Welfare. Zimmerman died in 2003 at age 85. “He was really the inspiration, sort of the patriarch of the whole Simply Equal campaign,” Silverman said. “One of the most amazing people I’ve ever met. Just an all-around nice person, a dedicated activist; diligent; always willing to talk to anybody, no matter what their position was.” Greenlee said it was Zimmerman who developed a five-year strategic plan that focused on electing gay-rights supporters at all levels of government, but particularly the Lawrence City Commission. “We were strategic in looking at primaries,” she said. “We worked hard, and we paid attention to the school board as well, but because we had a specific objective about the human relations ordinance, we worked until we had a majority on the City Commission.” Fighting City Hall Despite Lawrence’s popular image as a bastion of liberalism in an otherwise conservative state, Silverman said in

WATKINS MUSEUM OF HISTORY CURATOR BRITTANY KEEGAN listens as Mike Silverman goes through the many artifacts he has collected documenting Lawrence’s gay rights movement over the past two decades. Silverman donated the items to the museum Thursday for research and possible future exhibits. the days before passage of the ordinance, discrimination against gays and lesbians was not uncommon. In fact, he said, he did not come “out of the closet” and join the Freedom Coalition until a year or two later. “Everyone knew that Lawrence was the liberal town in Kansas, but it’s kind of funny. ‘Liberal’ back then would be almost conservative now,” he said. “You could lose a job or get kicked out of housing. There was no legal protection for sexual orientation in Lawrence or anywhere else in Kansas.” “As part of this campaign that passed, there were personal stories from people that were discriminated against in housing, employment and public accommodations,” he said. “It’s not something that happens 50 times a day, but it’s discrimination that does occur. And it still occurs. Nothing is perfect yet.” The municipal elections of 1995 finally produced the pro-gay-rights majority on the City Commission that the Freedom Coalition had sought. A week after the election, during the new commission’s meeting, the ordinance passed, 3-2. “The commission’s formal vote wasn’t a surprise,” the Journal-World reported at the time. “Commissioners already had taken stands on the issue — Jo Andersen, Allen Levine and John Nalbandian for the amendment; Bonnie Augustine and Mayor Bob Moody against it.”
The change in attitudes Greenlee noted that after the vote there was jubilation among the Freedom Coalition, but they also braced themselves for possible backlash. For
the next eight months, she said, Zimmerman continued holding meetings to develop a strategy in case opponents of the new law launched a petition drive to force it onto the ballot for a public vote. But in the weeks and months that followed, the controversy faded, and opposition quickly dwindled. Contacted this week to talk about memories of the vote, Nalbandian said it has all faded from his memory over 20 years and he couldn’t recall what the political dynamics were behind the vote. Moody, however, remembered that he simply didn’t think the ordinance was necessary. “I didn’t think there was a problem in Lawrence with discrimination, and apparently there hasn’t been,” he said. “Apparently no complaints have been issued with the city under that ordinance. Bonnie (Augustine) Lowe, who now works for the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said if she had it to do over again, she would vote differently today. “There was some conversation that I recall that when you started adding protective classes to the ordinance, where does that stop,” she said. “That hasn’t been the case. There has not been a lot of litigation, and the group being protected should not be discriminated against. The ordinance is fine. I’m comfortable with the ordinance and would vote in favor of it today.” Looking ahead, though, Silverman and Greenbaum said even though the LGBT community has made significant strides on the national front, in many ways things in Kansas have changed very little. Greenbaum noted that although same-sex cou-

ples can be legally married in Kansas, in most parts of the state they can also be fired for getting married because only a handful of cities in Kansas have adopted antidiscrimination ordinances like Lawrence’s Simply Equal law. Silverman added: “Our governor (in February) just rescinded statewide protections that were put in place by Gov. (Kathleen) Sebelius, just basically saying that the state government won’t discriminate. Something that was as noncontroversial and conservative as making sure the best person is hired for the job, Gov. (Sam) Brownback struck that from the books.”
But Silverman said the recent Supreme Court decision legalizing samesex marriage is cause for optimism. And he said the group’s original leader, Zimmerman, would be proud. “Wherever he is, I hope he’s looking down and

INACTION ON RAPE KITS ‘UNCONSCIONABLE’ GRIFFIN MOORES, THE (STAUNTON, VA.) NEWS LEADER
New laws, federal money don’t seem to make dent in massive evidence backlog $1.2 BILLION
allocated over a decade toward addressing the nation’s DNA testing needs, including taking inventory and testing sexual assault kits, has often been spent on more general DNA testing improvements.
Steve Reilly USA TODAY
Over the past decade alone, Congress has approved enough money to reduce the nation’s backlog of DNA evidence testing to have tested more than 1 million sexual assault evidence kits. So far, though, despite evidence that the number of untested rape kits could number into the hundreds of thousands nationwide, most of the money is not reaching local and state police authorities where the abandoned rape evidence could be tested and the problem reduced. A USA TODAY Media Network
investigation found that the U.S. Department of Justice has failed to comply with laws enacted by Congress aimed at paying for testing and reducing the backlog of untested rape kits — despite the power of the kits to provide evidence that can identify assailants, exonerate wrongly accused suspects, and confirm the accounts of survivors. The examination across all 50 states identified at least 70,000 sexual assault kits at more than 1,000 law enforcement agencies — likely only a small fraction of the accumulation that likely reaches hundreds of thousands
Waynesboro Police Sgt. Brian Edwards holds up a rape kit first processed in 2011 that’s still awaiting testing this month.

A Navy petty officer wounded in the shooting rampage in Chattanooga has died, bringing the total number of victims to five, according to the Navy and the sailor’s family. Four Marines were also killed in the assault, along with the gunman. Navy Petty Officer Randall Smith, a logistics specialist originally from Paulding, Ohio, had suffered extensive damage to internal orFACEBOOK gans during the shooting at the Smith U.S. Naval Reserve Centeron Thursday. Smith’s death was confirmed by Darlene Proxmire, his stepgrandmother, WANE-TV reports. The four Marines killed were identified as Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sullivan, of Springfield, Mass.; Staff Sgt. David Wyatt of Burke, N.C.; Sgt. Carson Holmquist of Polk, Wis.; and Lance Corporal Squire K. Wells of Cobb, Ga. The family of Chattanooga officer Dennis Pedigo, injured in the melee, said he is in “good spirits.” The FBI identified the shooter as Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, a graduate in electrical engineering from the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga. The FBI said preliminary evidence indicates that Abdulazeez acted alone in the attack. Ed Reinhold, the FBI special agent in charge, told reporters the case was being treated as an “act of terrorism” until evidence shows otherwise.
Trump crosses new line with McCain Assails senator’s war record; critics pile on Annah Backstrom
@AnnahBackstrom The Des Moines Register
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump took his confrontational campaign to a new level when he said Saturday that Sen. John McCain was not a war hero because he was captured by the North Vietnamese. Sen. McCain, R-Ariz., last week criticized Trump’s rhetoric on immigration, saying the businessman at a recent rally in Phoenix had “fired up the crazies.” Trump on Saturday shot back, saying “(McCain’s) a war hero because he got captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”
At a later news conference Trump tried to explain his remarks, but did not offer an apology. Reaction was swift and harsh, with Trump’s GOP presidential rivals and even conservative leaders of the Republican Party — who are no fans of McCain’s politics — decrying Trump’s remarks. “The difference between Sen. John McCain and Donald Trump: Trump shot himself down. McCain and American veterans are true heroes,” GOP 2012 presidential contender Mitt Romney tweeted. “Senator McCain is an American hero because he served his country and sacrificed more than most can imagine. Period. There is no place in our party or our

country for comments that disparage those who have served honorably,” the Republican National Committee said in a statement.
McCain, a Navy pilot, was a prisoner of war for nearly six years in Vietnam after being shot down while flying a mission. Critics of Trump’s remarks pointed out that he did not serve, instead receiving four student deferments and one medical deferment. Trump, at the news conference, offered this clarification: “If a person is captured, they’re a hero as far as I’m concerned. I don’t like the job John McCain is doing in the Senate because he is not taking care of our veterans.” Trump’s fellow 2016 hopefuls quickly took to Twitter, as well: And Meghan McCain, McCain’s daughter, said she was “horrified.” Contributing: Bill Theobald, USA TODAY
Top U.S. officer sees Ramadi offensive gaining momentum No need seen to add American forces Jim Michaels USA TODAY
An Iraqi military operation to retake the key Sunni city of Ramadi from Islamic State militants is gaining momentum, the top U.S. military officer said Saturday. Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said his senior field commanders do not require additional U.S. forces or the ability to deploy adBAGHDAD

Smoke billows Thursday from Husaybah, a town about four miles east of Ramadi in Iraq.
visers with Iraq’s combat forces for the offensive to succeed. “I asked the senior leaders point-blank: ‘Are we at the point where, in order to make sure this mission succeeds, that we need to be here in greater numbers and go farther forward?’ ” Dempsey told reporters as he wrapped up a day-long visit here. “And the answer was ‘no.’ ” Iraqi forces have been repeatedly humiliated in battles by the vastly smaller ranks of Islamic State fighters. That has prompted critics of the administration’s limited presence in Iraq to push for more U.S. forces in Iraq, including teams that could accom-
pany Iraqi combat forces to help call in more precise airstrikes against the militants. Lindsey Graham, a Republican presidential candidate, has suggested a force of 10,000 U.S. troops to speed up the training of Iraqi troops. Currently, there are about 3,500 U.S. troops in Iraq. Their primary role is to train and support Iraq’s military. Dempsey said he supports that policy. The Islamic State, which has taken over large areas of Iraq in the past year, remains a lethal enemy. An attack in a marketplace in Diyala province east of Baghdad on Friday night killed at
least 115 people, primarily Shiites. The collapse of Ramadi in May was a blow to Iraq’s military, which abandoned the city without much of a fight. Last Monday, Iraq’s government announced an offensive to take the city back. Iraq’s military has not yet begun an assault into the center of the city, where an estimated 250 to 300 militants are holed up. Instead, it is trying to surround the city first. Brig. Gen. Yahea Resool, a Defense Ministry spokesman, said Iraq’s forces have had initial successes in securing areas on Ramadi’s outskirts.

President Obama took office promising to restrict lobbyists’ influence on his administration, but from its first days, his team has tapped lobbyists to help shape the Obama message and repeat it on television, even as they were paid to lobby the White House. Since Obama took office in 2009, the White House has convened regular communication briefings with roughly two dozen Democrats who have fanned out to deliver the administration’s spin in the media. At least four of those surrogate spokespeople were registered lobbyists who returned to the White House with paying clients seeking everything from basic introductions to top officials to tax breaks for the nation’s largest financial firms, according to a USA TODAY analysis of White House visitor logs and other public records. At least two other participants in the administration’s messaging operation were public relations consultants who also returned to the White House with clients. These six people have brought a total of 31 clients to the White House for more than 55 meetings with senior officials since January 2009. In many cases, their clients got what they wanted. In all cases, they got White House access, a highly coveted commodity. The White House declined to discuss the messaging briefings in detail, how invitees were selected or why they included lobbyists. “Generally speaking, we value our external outreach and outward engagement — excluding outside voices from our consultations would be a narrow-minded approach to public service,” deputy spokesman Eric Schultz said. He said the administration has followed through on the president’s pledge to reduce lobbyists’ influence. The mixture of White House messaging and lobbying “poses the very conflict of interest that Obama was supposed to be standing against,” said Craig Holman, government affairs lobbyist for Public Citizen, a Washingtonbased public interest group. “Even though it’s not a financial quid pro quo going on, there is a quid pro quo of the White House getting a favor from a paid lobbyist and then the paid lobbyist actually lobbying the White House,” Holman said. “If you want something for a paying client out of the White House, and then you’re going to do something, do a favor for the White House, that’s wearing two hats.” WASHINGTON
REDUCING LOBBY INFLUENCE
Obama banned former lobbyists from serving in the White House on his first day in office, saying he wanted to make good on a campaign pledge to “close the revolving door that lets lobbyists come into government freely and lets them use their time in public service as a way to promote their own interests over the interests of the American people.” Less than two months after Obama’s inauguration, the White House invited 18 Democratic strategists, including three registered lobbyists, to a West Wing briefing with Obama messaging guru David Axelrod as the new president tried to drum up support for a health care overhaul.

would be taking people to the White House because they have legitimate interests that people in the White House want to hear about, whether they agree with them or disagree with them.” Frost attended nearly a dozen messaging meetings at the White House and returned with three clients to six meetings with senior officials since 2011. He brought colleagues representing a Kansas group trying to get a federal commitment to build a $1 billion homeland security biological research facility at Kansas State University. The group paid Frost’s firm $500,000 for lobbying from 2012 to 2014 and broke ground on the facility in May. Frost said his messaging and lobbying roles were separate, most of his lobbying was on Capitol Hill, and he wasn’t the lead lobbyist on the Kansas account. “Any meetings I took part in at the White House for clients (which were infrequent) were with technical staff,” Frost said.

The idea behind the meetings is that those strategists would go on television to explain and defend the administration’s decisions. They regularly did. In print, online and in hundreds of TV appearances, they have defended everything from the president’s tax proposals and annual budgets to his response to the rise of the Islamic State. USA TODAY identified a total of 16 messaging meetings at the White House, the most recent in February. The White House has convened much more frequent telephone conferences with more or less the same group of people, according to participants. The meetings have included White House policy specialists and senior staff. “Once or twice, the president came by just very briefly to shake hands and left,” said Martin Frost, a former congressman turned lobbyist and participant in the meetings who brought back clients to lobby the White House. “They give their take on what they’re doing and what they
want,” said frequent participant Steve Elmendorf, a former chief of staff to House majority leader Dick Gephardt. The meetings are “also an opportunity for people outside to give feedback to the White House on how to shape their message, what points are not going over well.” Elmendorf has been a lobbyist for more than a decade. He has been a regular attendee of Obama’s messaging meetings and has brought 18 clients to the White House for nearly two dozen meetings since 2009. Among them were executives from General Electric and the American Wind Energy Association, who sought extensions of expiring tax breaks worth billions of dollars in 2012. That year, those two clients paid Elmendorf’s firm $560,000 for lobbying. Congress and the White House settled on a deal that granted what Elmendorf’s clients wanted. Elmendorf said his role as a defender of the administration has nothing to do with his lobbying. “Whether I was a talker or not, I
across the nation’s 18,000 law enforcement agencies. “If we’re able to test these rape kits, more crimes would be solved, more rapes would be avoided,” Vice President Biden said in March, announcing an extra $41 million in grant funding as part of a White House initiative. Notwithstanding funding and attention of policymakers, the effort to quantify and reduce the number of untested sexual assault kits is not close to complete. Scott Berkowitz, president of the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network, said the issue is not the amount of the funding, but the fact that it isn’t reaching its intended target. “There’s ample money there,” he said. “But to date, only about 51% of that has gone towards casework and making sure labs have the capacity to do the testing.” The $1.2 billion allocated over a decade toward addressing the nation’s DNA testing needs, including taking inventory and testing sexual assault kits, has often
been spent on more general DNA testing improvements. Some funding has gone toward administrative expenses or been siphoned off for apparently unrelated purposes. A 2012 congressional report found some of the money went to polling firms and buying cellphone equipment and “entities of uncertain mission that employ heads of influential forensics policy advisory groups.” In an effort to focus federal funding and address inconsistent kit-testing policies, Congress in 2013 enacted the Sexual Assault Forensic Evidence Reporting Act. The SAFER Act set benchmarks requiring that three-quarters of the funding for sexual assault kits be used for testing or taking inventory of untested evidence. It also established a grant program to fund police inventories of untested kits. However, the Department of Justice has so far not awarded any grants under the law. At about $1,000 per kit, testing rape kits is a hindrance for some agencies. The USA TODAY count of untested kits indicates many smaller departments — those least able to afford to pay

The SAFER Act also required the Department of Justice, by Sept. 7, 2014, to develop and publish “a description of protocols and practices … for the accurate, timely, and effective collection and processing of DNA evidence, including protocols and practices specific to sexual assault cases.” Yet the nation’s top law enforcement agency failed to comply. Protocols for processing DNA still have not been developed. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who authored the SAFER Act, called it “completely unconscionable.” “Victims of sexual assault deserve better than to have critical evidence that could help find their attacker left to sit on a shelf because the Obama Administra-

Even those “technical staff” may have been aware that Frost and the other lobbyists were acting as Obama surrogates in the media. “Those people watch TV, too,” said David Goodfriend, a former aide in the Clinton White House who is a lobbyist and a participant in the messaging meetings. “Those people know that I am a friend of the White House and so there has to be some acknowledgment of the fact that I was out there as a Democrat on TV, and the fact that I defended the administration on TV surely must have helped me get a meeting at the White House. How could it not?” Goodfriend has attended a dozen messaging meetings at the White House since 2009 and returned during the same period with four clients to 15 meetings with senior White House officials. They included DISH Network, which wanted to secure rights to use more airwaves frequencies for wireless transmissions. DISH, which has paid Goodfriend roughly $240,000 per year since 2009 for lobbying, got key items it was lobbying for. Goodfriend said there was no “quid pro quo” with the White House for his role as a TV messenger and defender of the administration. “I didn’t ask for anything in exchange. I just asked for a meeting. I got the meeting,” he said. “And I had to have the goods, I had to have the substantive policy and political reasons or else there was no deal.” Penny Lee, a former senior political and communication adviser for Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., was the leader in 2011 of an alliance of for-profit colleges seeking to water down a draft Education Department rule that would deny the schools billions of dollars in federal financial aid unless they could prove their students got meaningful post-graduation employment. The coalition paid Lee $500,000 that year, and she escorted executives from the group to a White House meeting a few weeks before the rule was released — with the weaker lan-

tion refuses to fully implement this law,” he said in a statement to USA TODAY. In a December 2014 letter to Cornyn, Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik said developing the protocols “has presented many challenges,” but indicated no plans to comply in the future. “After thoughtful deliberation, the steering committee came to consensus on the need to identify best practices, protocols, statute and policies currently in existence throughout the country,” Kadzik wrote last year. The committee has not met in more than 16 months. Gerald LaPorte, director of the Office of Investigative and Forensic Sciences for the Justice Department’s National Institute of Justice, said a 42-person “steering committee of stakeholders” was formed to develop the protocols and met once in March 2014. Decisions about testing should not be based on funding, said Mai Fernandez, executive director of the National Center for Victims of Crime. “It can’t just be at the discretion of whoever is at the police station that day,” she said.
clients to a meeting at the White House, while Rosen met with White House officials with a variety of PR clients from oil giant BP to gay rights advocates. Daly said that what his firm’s client, the National Retail Federation, was seeking — a narrower, more flexible set of required benefits under the Affordable Care Act — was in line with what the administration wanted. “That was the only meeting I ever set up,” Daly said, adding that he wasn’t a lobbyist. Rosen said her client meetings were initiated by the White House, not by her. There is no way to tie any specific meeting to any one policy decision. Schultz, the White House spokesman, said policy decisions are “exclusively made on the merits and typically involve an extensive interagency review process.” He ticked off a litany of instances when Obama has sought to decrease the influence of lobbyists on the administration. “President Obama has done more in the past six years to close the revolving door of special interests than any president before him,” Schultz said. USA TODAY could track these meetings, Schultz said, only because the Obama White House is the first to make its visitor logs public. The Obama White House did not invent messaging meetings. “We called them influencer calls,” said Dan Bartlett, White House communication director for President George W. Bush. The challenge for any White House, Bartlett said, is that in Washington, “prominent figures like that are certainly wearing multiple hats.” One regular attendee of the Obama messaging meetings who didn’t bring back clients said he thought it would cross an ethical line. “I think you’ve got to be careful when you’re doing that,” said Peter Fenn, who owns his own public relations and communication company. “You have two roles: You have to say, ‘Look, I’m a surrogate’ or ‘I’m somebody who’s going to help you guys out,’ but you know, you leave that other stuff at the door.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

NATION/WORLD ON POLITICS Top U.S. officer worries about Iran deal Fears Tehran may use new revenue for ‘malign activities’

An Iran nuclear deal seemed to unite Republicans in their opposition, and we learned who was winning the 2016 money race, as candidates filed fundraising reports. More news from the world of politics:

Iran also supports insurgents in Yemen and the State Department says it is a primary sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East. In Tehran on Saturday, Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said in a televised speech that the nuclear deal won’t change Iran’s policy toward the “arrogant” U.S. government. Khamenei said U.S. policy in the Middle East runs counter to Iran’s strategy and his country will continue to support allies that include the Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon, Palestinians and the Assad government, the Associated Press reported. “Our policy toward the arrogant U.S. government won’t change at all,” Khamenei said, according to the AP.

Removal of sanctions would produce a financial windfall for oil-rich Iran, which would receive funds previously frozen and be able to sell oil on world markets again. Israel and many Republicans
in Congress have assailed the deal, saying Tehran will be able to expand its support for terrorist groups. President Obama, who championed the negotiations, said he hoped Iran would use the money to rebuild its country and rejoin the world economic community. Dempsey made a similar case — with a caveat. “There is every reason to believe” that Iran will use increased revenues to strengthen its economy, he said. “But I am also alert to the possibility that some of it will be used to support the other malign activities where we have concerns with Iran,” he said. Dempsey said it is premature to predict which path Iran will choose. “Time and Iranian behavior will determine whether this agreement has achieved the purposes we intended it to achieve,” he said.

Walker connects well on Facebook.
SCOTT WALKER’S LAUNCH GENERATES SOCIAL BUZZ Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker made his long-expected entry into the GOP presidential race last week, and his entry, while not sparking an overwhelming volume of chatter on Facebook, did spark high levels of intensity. Only Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, the first major candidate of either party to announce, generated a higher ratio of interactions per user than Walker. This metric illustrates the “intensity of his audience,” said Alan Rosenblatt, senior vice president at turner4D, a digital advocacy firm. As for the overall volume of Walker mentions, 679,000 users generated 1.6 million interactions, which includes posts, comments and shares. To put into perspective, Hillary Clinton’s announcement brought about 10 million interactions from 4.7 million unique users, while Donald Trump created 6.4 million from 3.4 million users. HUFFINGTON POST CLASSIFIES TRUMP AS ENTERTAINMENT Speaking of Trump, it appears one news outlet has had enough. The Huffington Post announced Friday on its website that, going forward, its entertainment section, not its politics desk, would cover the Trump 2016 presidential campaign. “Our reason is simple: Trump’s campaign is a sideshow,” wrote Ryan Grim, the site’s Washington bureau chief, and Danny Shea, its editorial director. “We won’t take the bait. If you are interested in what The Donald has to say, you’ll find it next to our stories on the Kardashians and The Bachelorette.”

But you might not have expected another he admires: James K.

Justice, police unions finding common ground New partnership amid volatile police-community relations Kevin Johnson @bykevinj USA TODAY
WASHINGTON As the Justice Department weighed its strategy for responding to the crisis that engulfed the Baltimore Police Department this year, police union officials found themselves in a most unlikely place: a conference table in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, talking with the very people who would shape the federal government’s plan. Rarely in the past six years, when over 20 local police agencies have drawn the department’s scrutiny for excessive force and discrimination, had union offi-
cials — traditional adversaries in federal civil rights inquiries — been included in such a way. The meeting — which included the police union’s national president, Chuck Canterbury, Maryland Fraternal Order of Police president Vince Canales, Baltimore Fraternal Order of Police president Gene Ryan and Jim Pasco, executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police union — signals the emergence of a new relationship between federal authorities seeking to restore public trust in local law enforcement and union leaders who have closely guarded the rights of rank-and-file officers. Much of the change, analysts
say, represents a recognition that labor’s involvement is key to the success of federal efforts undertaken by the new leadership at Justice’s Civil Rights Division. If Justice “wants to see real change, it has to involve the unions, too,” University of Pittsburgh law professor David Harris said. “If they don’t involve the unions, at the very least, (any) agreement created may not be as good. At worst, the unions may feel no involvement or obligation and may work to undermine the agreement’s success.” Vanita Gupta, a former ACLU lawyer nominated last fall to lead the Civil Rights Division, which had been without a permanent chief for over a year, said unions
were among the first groups she sought out after taking office. “Coming in after Ferguson, there is a much greater focus on the part of everyone,” Gupta told USA TODAY. Chuck Wexler, executive director of the law enforcement think tank Police Executive Research Forum, said greater union involvement underscores a “recognition among labor leaders that something has to change.” “This is our Tylenol moment,” Wexler said, referring to the drug-tampering crisis that threatened the painkiller brand in 1982. When the Fraternal Order of Police celebrates its 100th anniversary next month, Pasco says, “it is more than symbolic” that a new attorney general, Loretta Lynch, will be in Pittsburgh to give the keynote address.
IN BRIEF FIVE ARRESTED IN S.C. AT COMPETING RALLIES
A tense gathering of 2,000 people at the South Carolina statehouse Saturday that included members of the The Ku Klux Klan and a group with links to the New Black Panther Party has resulted in five arrests, according to state officials. Both groups held coinciding and at times combative rallies just one week after the Confederate flag was removed from near the Capitol. A South Carolina Department of Public Safety tweet noted that one arrest was for assault, as well as two each for disorderly conduct and breach of peace. The two opposing groups faced off near the Capitol as each called attention to their causes. On one side, protesters with the KKK chanted "white power" and waved Confederate flags. On the other side, activists with Black Educators for Justice yelled "black power" and held their hands in the air. . — Yamiche Alcindor

WORLD CUBANS RUSH TO U.S. SHORES BEFORE EASY ENTRY ENDS

Alan Gomez l USA TODAY
s a horseshoe-maker living in central Cuba, Duniesky Alvarez had never stepped foot on a boat. Then he heard rumors that normalized U.S.-Cuban relations would bring an end to the American policy that lets any Cuban who makes it to U.S. soil stay. For the next two months, he and nine others secretly built a boat. They crafted a motor out of a farm-sprinkler turbine, hid materials in a sugar cane field, spoke on the phone in code, built the vessel for 10 days in a mosquito-infested mountain region and kept their plan secret until the last moment. When they finally landed in the Florida Keys in May after seven agonizing days at sea, “I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry,” Alvarez, 33, recalled. “I had so much going on in my chest that I didn’t know what to feel.”
Many other Cubans are rushing to follow Alvarez here as President Obama and Cuban President Raúl Castro move to end more than a half century of estranged relations. The new wave of rafters stems from word-of-mouth rumors in a nation with virtually no Internet access that the preferential immigration status for Cubans will soon end. The result has been a flood of voyages that has forced the U.S. Coast Guard to step up efforts to intercept the “rafters” and return them to Cuba. As of June 1, guardsmen have picked up 1,864 Cubans at sea this year, already nearing the 2014 total of 2,059. “You get information from what you hear,” said Arnaldo Enseñat, 31, a fisherman from Cienfuegos who joined Alvarez on the trip. “I heard that Obama was going to change the Cuban Adjustment Act in February. I heard that, and I didn’t want to wait anymore.” The question now is whether the improving relationship between the U.S. and Cuba should lead to an end of the 1966 Cuban Adjustment Act’s “wetfoot, dry-foot” policy that allows Cubans who evade the Coast Guard and touch U.S. soil to get green cards after one year, sponsor their relatives back home to join them and eventually become U.S. citizens.
The new wave of rafters stems from word-of-mouth rumors in a nation with virtually no Internet access that the preferential immigration status for Cubans will soon end. Compare that with the fate of would-be immigrants from every other country who successfully sneak into the country: They are rewarded with a life as an undocumented immigrant, with little access to government benefits and the constant fear of being discovered by police or immigration officials.

Four Cuban-Americans have been elected to the U.S. Senate and eight to the House, adding to their power base. But now that the American flag will soon fly over the U.S. embassy in Havana, even the rafters aren’t sure whether the “wet-foot, dry-foot” policy should survive. “If we’re going to have normal relations, they should get rid of it,” Alvarez said. “But there are so many people back there who want to do exactly what I did. “I just don’t know.”
Escape from Cuba is treacherous journey Flimsy vessels, bad weather while crossing Florida Straits pose dangers
Alan Gomez USA TODAY
ABOARD USCGC RAYMOND EVANS
For Cubans trying to sneak out of their country and survive the 90-mile trek to reach the U.S., the dangers start long before they set out to sea. First, they have to evade Cuban authorities who crack down hard on people illegally making boats or rafts. Arnaldo Enseñat, a fisherman from the southern Cuban city of Cienfuegos, lost track of the number of boats he built over the seven years he tried to escape the communist island. When he came close to finishing one, Cuban officials would catch him, confiscate the materials and levy a massive fine.
“You have to show (the authorities) you’re playing by the rules. I wasn’t one of those proclaiming, ‘I’m going to the United States, I’m leaving this!’ ” Arnaldo Enseñat, a fisherman from the southern Cuban city of Cienfuegos
That’s why he changed his methods during his last attempt earlier this year. Whenever he talked to his friends who were part of the plan, they spoke only in code. Gallons of water for their voyage were described as pounds of meat. Every nautical term was replaced with a farming phrase. The boat? A box of tomatoes. The plan worked: Enseñat finally escaped Cuba, landing in the Florida Keys in May. “You have to be so careful,” Enseñat said. “You have to show (authorities) you’re playing by the rules. I wasn’t one of those proclaiming, ‘I’m going to the United States, I’m leaving this!’
Whatever they wanted to hear, that’s what I said.” More Cubans are taking to the sea on homemade boats and rafts amid rumors that the preferential immigration status given to Cubans who reach U.S. soil could soon be eliminated. That’s left the Coast Guard worried about the fate of “rafters” making the trek. The main concern is the weather in the Florida Straits, the shark-infested water separating Cuba from the U.S. dominated by the Gulf Stream. “The Gulf Stream is so powerful,” said Lt. Drew Cavanagh, commanding officer of the 154-foot Coast Guard Cutter Raymond Evans, during a recent patrol. “When an opposing wind hits that current, it stacks up waves on you. The weather can change very quickly.” The term balseros, or rafters, originated in the 1990s by Cubans attempting the journey in nothing more than inner tubes or small rafts. Some fashioned larger vessels. Others built sails from sticks and bedsheets or used makeshift boat motors. The Coast Guard rarely says any of them can be called boats, using terms like “rustics” or “yolas” instead. And every guardsman has a story about the shoddiest vessels seen. Lt. Kevin Connell, commanding officer of the Coast Guard Cutter Charles Sexton, said one group of Cubans fashioned a vessel by laying down a plastic tarp, creating a circle with hundreds of plastic jugs, wrapping the ends of the tarp over the jugs and putting a round piece of plywood in the middle. Others combine wood, aluminum and plastic foam to craft a basic hull. “Every single one we’ve seen has been taking on water,” he said. “We’ll see guys bailing water constantly, and they’ll look at us like it’s normal.”

Yellowcake is combined with fluorine and other chemicals to form uranium hexaflouride.
IRAN’S URANIUM When uranium is mined from the earth, it contains U-238 and U-235, which is less stable. To produce a chain reaction, U-235 must be separated out through a process called enrichment. Most of the effort or time to enrich uranium is spent on the earliest stages.

IN THE HOT SEAT T-MOBILE PAYS FINE From my colleague Marco della Cava: T-Mobile will pay a $17.5 million fine to the Federal Communications Commission to resolve charges brought against the carrier for two 911 outages last summer that prevented customers from reaching emergency services for three hours, the FCC said in a statement Friday. Every hour, some 27,400 calls are placed nationwide to 911 call centers. There were two nationwide T-Mobile outages on Aug. 8, 2014, during which time many of the mobile carrier’s then-50-million subscribers were unable to reach first responders. The FCC charged that the incidents could have been prevented if T-Mobile had installed proper safeguards for its 911 system.

ON THE FRONT BURNER WARREN ON THE WARPATH In no uncertain terms, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Friday reminded the 2016 presidential candidates of the importance of curbing the influence of Wall Street banks on the political process. In a keynote address to an enthusiastic crowd at the annual Netroots Nation convention, she said, “Anyone running for that job, anyone who wants the power ... should say loud and clear: ‘We don’t run this country for Wall Street and mega-corporations.

A rival to Amazon and Walmart, Jet.com throws down the gauntlet — but in a nice way
E-COMMERCE TURBULENCE LIKELY AHEAD Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY
HOBOKEN, N. J. Marc Lore’s ambition is as spectacular as his view of Manhattan’s sparkling skyline. From headquarters on the Frank Sinatra side of the Hudson River, the former Quidsi founder’s new venture — Jet.com — plans to take on online shopping’s biggest players, from Amazon to Walmart. Jet’s consumer proposition is as simple as its algorithms are complex: Spend $50 a year for a membership and you get the Web’s lowest prices on 10 millionplus goods. Fueled by $225 million in funding (”Though it will take much more to get us on the ecommerce flywheel,” says Lore) and encouraged by months of beta testing with 150,000 customers (“We saw repeat rates of more than 50%,” he adds), Jet rolls out nationally Tuesday with a threemonth free trial. With the proper runway, Jet could take off. E-commerce sales totaled $300 billion last year and will surge to $414 billion by 2018, according to Forrester Research. Currently, e-commerce represents less than 10% of retail sales, and some analysts predict a jump to 30% by 2030.
With average savings of 10%- price.

It’s critical to win on price.” Lore insists he isn’t encouraging a duel with his former boss, Jeff Bezos, whose site’s razor-thin margins are offset by its massive $90 billion annual revenue. RAMPING UP CAPITAL
In its initial stages, Jet is likely to have to use its capital raises — led by the likes of Bain Capital and Accel Partners, leading to a prelaunch $500 million valuation — to artificially keep prices low until its sales ramp up, says Matt Nemer, retail and e-commerce analyst for Wells Fargo Securities. “You need scale to compete with Amazon, so cash burn in the early days will be to create false scale and cover for low initial membership numbers,” says Nemer, whose notes on Jet also include ordering similar items from Amazon and Jet and finding the latter yielded a 36% discount. Nemer says he likes Jet Anywhere, a feature that allows customers to save on products from 700 sites such as J. Crew and Gap. Also in Jet’s corner, he says, is the fact that Amazon has trained many shoppers to buy mainly on impulse. Lore acknowledges the trip ahead will bring challenges, but he’s eager for Jet’s flight to begin. “One of our goals is $20 billion in product sales in five years, but another is to be a great company where people feel connected to the mission,” says Lore.
Trump stumbled on 5 stocks, but still wound up a big winner Candidate reveals gains of $27 million Matt Krantz USA TODAY
Donald Trump isn’t one to admit mistakes very often. So when he does — especially about handling money — it’s worth taking note. The presidential candidate last week provided a rare glimpse into his personal fortune — touting a net worth of more than $10 billion. Included is a list of his 45 stock market bets. The stock picks aren’t current — only through 2014 — and lack details to measure performance, including purchase or sell dates. But the sales data show The Donald whiffed on five of the stocks — a rare admission of error

Occidental Petroleum was another bet that didn’t pay off. His investment of $1.9 million was worth just $1.8 million — for a $121,661 loss. But let’s be clear — The Donald’s disclosure was more of a declaration of stock market success. A vast majority of the positions Trump revealed indicated massive gains. All told, Trump disclosed stock market gains of $27 million — and profits on all but these five of them. Bank of America was his biggest winner, with a gain of $6.7 million. Believing such success — which would top that of most professional mutual fund managers — you’d wonder why Trump would bother running for president.

Whiz kids solve seniors’ problems with tech Charisse Jones @charissejones USA TODAY
Millennials, expected to outnumber Baby Boomers this year for the first time, are extending a helping hand from one generation to the next. From a pharmacy that sorts customers’ medications into individual single-dose packs, to a website that helps families find reliable caregivers, Millennials are using their digital know-how and ingenuity to make the lives of seniors a little better. “There’s demographic pressure,” says Kai Stinchcombe, the 32-year-old CEO and co-founder of True Link, which enables family members to protect their elderly loved ones from financial scammers. “As our parents age ... in a thousand ways we’re going to be supporting them physically, financially, emotionally, and so I do think it’s important to get as much in place as we can.”
Ingenuity makes life simpler, safer
GOOD MEDICINE
FRAUD STOPPERS
Elder fraud and abuse is a particular concern. A Wells Fargo/Gallup survey of 1,005 investors in May found that when evaluating various risks, 32% were worried about financial abuse or exploitation of older relatives or friends. A third of those surveyed also said they knew a senior who had been targeted by an investment scam or other form of financial abuse. Enter True Link. Started in 2012, the company issues a new
Visa card to seniors. Family members then, through an online dashboard, can block merchants or groups engaging in predatory behavior. For instance, they can block wire transfers, or impose restrictions that limit the amount of cash that their loved one can withdraw. Relatives can also keep an eye on other savings accounts to see if there is suspicious activity. Stinchcombe and his co-founder, Claire McDonnell, were motivated by their own experiences. Stinchcombe says that his grandmother gave to charities throughout her life. But suddenly, in her 80s, “she was giving away, instead of $50 a month to charities, maybe $50 a day, and that adds up,” he says. When his grandmother’s bank suggested taking away her checkbook or credit cards, he and his family were concerned about the toll losing her financial independence would take. That was the inspiration for True Link.

KIND OR CONNED? How charity scammers prey on donors
GETTY IMAGES
@MsABalakrishnan USA TODAY
If you got a call from the Cancer Fund of America in the past few years, it might have sounded something like this: “We help cancer patients all over the United States. ... Men, women, children, with over 240 different types of cancer. ... And 100% of our proceeds go to hospice care.” Now the Federal Trade Commission and attorneys general of all 50 states are investigating whether any of that is true. Yet from 2008 to 2012, CFA and three similar charities were able to raise $187 million. CFA did not respond to a request for comment. “Right now, only about 30% of people check out any information before they give to charity,” says H. Art Taylor, president and CEO of Better Business Bureau (BBB) Wise Giving Alliance. “(This case) makes people aware that they do have to do more before they give to charity or they run the risk of wasting their money.” Americans are donating more to charity than ever. Donations hit an inflation-adjusted high of $358.5 billion in 2014, ac-
Meanwhile, PillPack, a Bostonbased pharmacy launched in 2014, fills prescriptions in a handy way that makes juggling multiple prescriptions a nobrainer. Pills from all your prescriptions are presorted into single-dose packs, clearly labeled with the day and time to tear open and pop the pills. The packs come in one long strip rolled into a dispenser and arrive by mail every two weeks. TJ Parker, PillPack’s 29-yearold co-founder, says the pharmacy also manages refills and works with the customer’s insurance company. Pharmacists are available for consultations either online or by phone, and customers pay only standard co-pays, nothing more for shipping and handling. cording to The Giving Institute and Indiana University. But where there’s more giving, there’s more taking — and scammers are using both new and tried-andtrue methods to fleece kind souls. ANATOMY OF A SCAM
So how can you protect your hard-earned alms? The answer is to recognize red flags. There’s a certain anatomy to many scams, according to the FTC. Some warning signs: uPressuring you to donate immediately. uAsking you to wire cash. uOffering to send a courier or overnight-delivery service to pick up your donation. You should never be required to donate money to win a sweepstakes, either — any giveaway that says otherwise could be pulling a fast one, the FTC says. A bona fide charity should be willing to provide proof that your donation is tax-deductible and details on its finances and mission. Unfortunately, if you get a call asking for donations, you have no way to know whether the person on the other end is really representing a charity, wrote Steve Weisman, expert in scams and identity theft. Con artists can even “spoof” your Caller ID to make it look as if they belong with a charity. WHAT TO DO
The best way to arm yourself against any scam, according to the IRS, is to avoid giving personal information or cash and doing good old research. Step one is to avoid donating over the phone. Hang up and check out the charity online, Weisman says. Even legitimate non-profits may pay telemarketers, so donating by mail or online ensures that none of your cash goes toward commissions. Next, do your research. Confirm the precise name when you
“This was really personal for me,” says Parker, a second-generation pharmacist who delivered medications for his family’s pharmacy as a youth. “I saw that everyone had this cornucopia on the kitchen counter and an Excel sheet ... and they were trying to stay on top of this thing that was really frustrating and complicated.” On July 9, the company launched an app that prompts customers when to take their medicines. Unlike traditional reminders, which require customers to manually enter each medication, the app automatically downloads all prescriptions from wherever they’re filled, after the user enters such details as their name and the last four digits of their Social Security number. The prompts are also more customized. “These reminders on existing apps are really just alarm clocks,” Parker says. The PillPack app, however, uses geo-tracking sensors to create prompts based on location, as well as time, such as reminding users when they leave the house in the morning or drop the kids off at school. CALLING ALL CAREGIVERS
Mike Townsend and Kyle Hill cofounded the Santa Monica, Calif.based HomeHero after watching the travails endured by Hill’s father as he sought quality care for Hill’s grandmother. “The process of sending paper checks and managing caregivers for Kyle’s grandmother became such a burden,” Townsend, 27, says, adding the final straw was when one caregiver stole jewelry. “We realized this is a huge problem for not just his father, but for millions of people in this country and around the world, to find reliable people to help seniors in their last years of their life.” Family members can go to the HomeHero website and review video profiles of more than 1,000 caregivers. A client-support team assists relatives in going through the hiring process, and once a match is made, caregivers submit their hours electronically. HomeHero takes a 15% fee, and the caregiver keeps the rest. And in addition to handling the caregiver’s payments, HomeHero monitors the client’s care. It is currently available in San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Stinchcombe says services like True Link and others may be tools that Millennials will one day need to tap into, not for their loved ones, but for themselves. “That’s one of the more humbling and valuable experiences for me with the company,” he says. “It causes you to confront the fact that you, too, will age.” look up the charities — rackets sometimes create names similar to authentic organizations to hoodwink you. One of the cancer charities suspected of being a sham was Breast Cancer Society, Weisman says, while a highly reliable charity has a similar moniker: Breast Cancer Alliance. Once you’ve looked up the correct charity, check how much it spends on projects vs. fundraising or administration. For instance, GuideStar’s free service focuses on how much of charities’ donations goes to the cause and how much to overhead. “Phony charities will have administrative costs way up there, because they’re greedy,” Weisman says. The government can be a good resource. In most states, valid non-profits are registered with the attorney general or secretary of State’s office. IRS Select Check will tell you whether a donation would be tax-deductible. 21ST-CENTURY CHALLENGES
The safest way to give is online by credit card, Weisman says. It gives you the option to check out the charity beforehand and limits your liability if your info is stolen. But even the Web shouldn’t be safe from healthy skepticism. As Weisman points out, even just typing in a charity’s Web address requires care: If you mistype the name, you could end up at a phony site. Meanwhile, email, text message and social media solicitations can contain malware for identity theft. Make sure you see the “https://” at the beginning of the URL — the “s” indicates your information is being encrypted. And never click on links in messages. The good news is that with more research tools available, good charities can prove their merit. “This is something I believe will help us as we move forward,” Taylor says.

KANSAS BASKETBALL
Going places
Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com
Look for Svi to be a key One of the players key to the 2015-16 Kansas University basketball season hasn’t come up much in conversation lately because he wasn’t eligibile to play in the World University Games. So it’s time to talk about sophomore Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk. If he can Mykhailiuk play highspeed basketball well enough to be the guy who can spell both Frank Mason and Devonté Graham, that will enable Wayne Selden to stay at one position. After Selden’s Asian awakening, anyone who can enable the junior from Boston to stay in the role he played overseas becomes a key to the upcoming season. Playing primarily as the second ballhandler last season, Selden encountered a bizarre shooting slump inside the three-point arc. He shot just .395 on two-point attempts, missed dunks routinely and couldn’t get driving shots near the rim to fall. It was as if he built up such a huge head of steam driving in from the perimeter he couldn’t ease up on the accelerator and didn’t have control of his body or touch near the hoop. Clearly, Selden has spent the offseason working on doing a better job of controlling his body to the extent he has a better idea of where he is in relation to the hoop and does a better job of focusing on his precise shooting target. In Gwangju, despite making just 5 of 22 two-point attempts in the final two games, vs. Russia and Germany, Selden hit .551 for the tournament inside the arc. Why the reversion to last season in the final two games? It would be tempting to surmise that the uptick in competition had a lot to do with it, which of course, would not be a good sign. It probably was at least a minor factor, but given his numbers against two of the tournament’s other top teams, Serbia and Lithuania, it would not be fair to jump to the conclusion it was the primary cause. Selden made 10 of 12 two-point shots vs. Serbia and Lithuania. Heading into the final two games, Selden had been shooting .786 inside the arc. The final two games were the seventh and eighth in a 10-day span. That’s a prescription for legs to lose their spring. The move to small forward helped Selden in other ways as well. In part because he was able to crash the offensive boards, instead of retreat on defense, Selden showed his value as a rebounder.

Oubre, Alexander working toward NBA By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Former Kansas University guard Kelly Oubre Jr. found his shooting stroke Friday in the sixth game of his pro basketball career. The 6-foot-7, 19-year-old New Orleans native, who was traded to Washington (by Atlanta) after being selected 15th overall in the 2015 NBA Draft, scored 30 points off 9-of-14 shooting (5-7 from three and 7-8 from the line) in the Wizards’ 97-89 win
over Denver in the Las Vegas Summer League. Through five games, Oubre had made 33.3 percent of his shots (24 of 72) and was just 3-of-25 from three (12 percent). “I know I can shoot. I have 100 percent confidence in my shot,” Oubre told ESPN.com after 13-for-37 shooting in his first two games. Overall, Oubre averaged 16.8 points off 38.4 percent shooting, 25 percent from three, for the (3-3) Wizards. Where does that confidence come from?
“Just knowing what I can do. And hard work — I work my butt off,” Oubre told ESPN. NBA.com reported that Oubre contacted his personal trainer, Drew Hanlen, and the duo worked out on UNLV’s practice court at 10 p.m., last Sunday after his second pro game. Oubre, who has come across as polite but somewhat boastful in interviews before draft night, on draft night and since draft night, has taken an aggressive at-
titude onto the court. He hoisted 20 shots, hitting eight, good for 20 points in his debut game against Phoenix on July 11. In Game Two, he hit five of 17 shots and scored 18 points against the D-League all-stars. He was 1-for-12 from three in those two games. “That’s what you need,” Wizards guard John Wall told the Washington Post, when asked about Oubre’s confidence. “These young Please see HOOPS, page 3C
Goodman gives grand tour of KU campus By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Kansas University senior Ben Goodman, a defensive end from Beaumont, Texas, was featured on ESPN SportsCenter’s Campus Crawl Saturday morning as sports anchor Matt Barrie’s tour guide of the KU campus. Goodman and Barrie vis-
ited some of Goodman’s favorite spots at his school and around Lawrence, starting and ending with trips to the Anderson Family Football Complex and Memorial Stadium. After giving Barrie a quick look at what it’s like to walk out of the locker room and take the field for a KU game on Saturdays, Goodman
led the hike up the hill to the Campanile Bell Tower, where the recent KU graduate allowed Barrie to pass through the memorial. “There’s an old curse that says if you walk through this building before you graduate, you will not graduate,” Goodman told Barrie. “But the thing is, I graduated and, (since you don’t) plan
on getting a degree from Kansas then we can walk through it.” From there the two toured Allen Fieldhouse and then made a quick stop at Watson Barbershop, where Goodman and several KU athletes get their hair cut while in town. Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C Goodman

KANSAS CITY’S LORENZO CAIN rounds the bases after hitting a 13th-inning home run against the Please see KEEGAN, page 3C White Sox on Saturday in Chicago.
Chicago (ap) — Lorenzo Cain was hoping someone on his team would hit a home run to end the marathon game. He wound up taking matters into his own hands. Cain homered in the 13th inning, and the Kansas City Royals outlasted the Chicago White Sox, 7-6, Saturday in a game that took nearly five hours. The AL Central-leading Royals won for the 10th time in 13 games. “I ended up doing it and helping everybody get out
of here and move on to tomorrow. It was well needed, well needed,” Cain said. Cain doubled and singled early, then led off the 13th with his ninth home run of the season. He connected against Dan Jennings (1-3). The teams endured the long game after they split a day-night doubleheader Friday. “We hung in there,” Cain said. “I know both teams are tired after yesterday and then coming here this morning to play another day game, so it’s definitely
not easy for each team. But we found a way to come out here, play great baseball. It took awhile, but we ended up getting the win.” Brandon Finnegan (30) pitched two scoreless innings in the four-hour, 56-minute game. Ryan Madson earned his first save in three chances — and first since 2011 — after allowing a single in the 13th. “That game took a toll on both teams’ bullpens, so Please see ROYALS, page 3C

Sporting edges Montreal Kansas City, Kan. (ap) — Benny Feilhaber had a goal and assist in the first half, helping Sporting Kansas City beat the Montreal Impact 2-1 on Saturday night. Sporting Kansas City (9-36) has won a franchise-record eight straight home games, including all competitions. Feilhaber opened the scoring in the fourth minute after Roger Espinoza’s interception in the Impact backfield. Espinoza fed Krisztian Nemeth, who crossed it back to Feilhaber for a left-footed blast into the right corner of the net. Feilhaber then assisted Dom Dwyer in the 34th minute, splitting the Impact’s central defense with a 50-yard pass from behind midfield. Dwyer chased it to the top of the 18-yard box where he curled it home. Ignacio Piatti scored in the 59th minute for the Impact (68-3). The goal snapped Sporting KC’s 355-minute MLS shutout streak.
Hamlin bulls his way to Xfinity win Loudon, N.H. (ap) — Denny Hamlin turned sideways into Kyle Busch and had Austin Dillon all bent out of shape. Hamlin roughed up the field and bruised some feelings, when he nudged Dillon out of the lead Saturday and raced to his second NASCAR Xfinity Series victory of the season. Hamlin had the dominant car and led 145 of the 200 laps at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. But when Dillon briefly took the lead, Hamlin put his No. 20 into the left side of Dillon’s car at lap 179 and knocked him out of the way. Hamlin was mad because he said Dillon jumped the restart, forcing him to make the hit-and-run pass any driver should attempt in that situation. Dillon lashed out after the race and said Hamlin purposely tried to wreck him and vowed payback. “What is racing if you can’t race side by side for more than a corner? He never even went through a corner with me. The whole race,” Dillon said. “Didn’t want to, just moved me, missed the corner, wrecked me. I’m fine with racing rough. I promise you, I can do it to anybody.”
Hunter-Reay takes Iowa IndyCar Newton, Iowa (ap) — Ryan Hunter-Reay raced to his third IndyCar victory at Iowa Speedway in the last four years Saturday night. Hunter-Reay held off the field on a late restart to give Andretti Autosport its sixth consecutive win on Iowa’s 0.894-mile oval and its seventh in nine series races at the track. The American hadn’t finished higher than fifth all season. Josef Newgarden was second and rookie Sage Karam was a career-best third, giving American drivers a sweep of the podium. Points leader Juan Pablo Montoya’s night lasted just nine laps after his No. 2 Penske car flew into the wall. Scott Dixon, who entered the race in second, failed to capitalize on Montoya’s misfortune. He finished 18th.

UNITED STATES MIDFIELDER GYASI ZARDES (20) BATTLES for the ball with — and gets a shot in the mouth from — Cuba defender Yaisnier Napoles during the 6-0 U.S. win in the CONCACAF Gold Cup soccer quarterfinal match Saturday in Baltimore.
U.S. blasts Cuba in Gold Cup quarterfinal Baltimore — Clint Dempsey scored on a fourth-minute header, added a pair of secondhalf goals for his first international hat trick, and the United States routed Cuba 6-0 on Saturday to reach its eighth straight CONCACAF Gold Cup semifinal. Dempsey converted a penalty kick early in the second half and added a late goal to raise his tournament-leading total to six. Dempsey’s 57 international goals are 10 behind Landon Donovan’s American record. Gyasi Zardes, Aron Johannsson and Omar Gonzalez also scored as the Americans built a 4-0 halftime lead against a Cuban team depleted by five absent players who may have defected. In Wednesday’s semifinal at Atlanta, the Americans will play the winner of Saturday’s late game between Jamaica and Haiti, the first all-Caribbean knockout stage Gold Cup match. With its highest victory margin in the championship of soccer’s North and Central American and Caribbean region, the U.S. improved to 8-1 in Gold Cup quarterfinals, the only blemish a penalty-kicks loss to Colombia in 2000. It was more than 90 degrees on the field and sunny for the 5 p.m. kickoff, causing Costa Rican referee Henry Bejarano to call for a water break after the third goal. Cuba, which has a history of defections at sporting events, listed more than 20 percent of its 23-man roster as absent. The Cubans, ranked 104th, have not reached the World Cup since 1938 and already were eliminated by Curacao in qualifying for the 2018 tournament. NFL
Favre gets 5-minute ovation Green Bay, Wis. — On Saturday, any lingering hard feelings that might exist between Green Bay Packers fans and Brett Favre were eviscerated. If it wasn’t the 5-minute ovation the estimated crowd of 67,000 showered upon the greatest quarterback in the franchise’s history, it was the tears welling up in Favre’s eyes that doused every cinder of animosity remaining from the burning feud between the two sides. Minutes after the crowd got warmed up cheering Favre’s family’s entry into the stadium, the rock music in the stadium ceased and the cheers started to get louder. The public address announcer came on and as though it were one of the 150 games in which he ran out of the tunnel onto Lambeau Field, the crowd roared. Favre, wearing a dark blue sport jacket with no tie, a light purple shirt and dark slacks, emerged from the tunnel, walking instead of his traditional game-day sprint through the introduction line. As he strode slowly on the unpainted turf, the crowd exploded. As though a returning hero, Favre moved along, spinning slowly with his arms raised, saluting the fans who seven years ago booed him mercilessly upon his return as a Minnesota Viking. The ovation went on and on with cheers of “MVP, MVP” catching an occasional wave through the stadium. Every time it seemed as though it might die down, the enthusiasm picked up. Finally, host Lance Allan began speaking and the crowd quieted. “Wow,” Favre said. “I don’t have the words to express the feelings coming out of that tunnel. If there was ever any doubt before, there isn’t any now. I truly thank you.” The crowd, which began filing in at 5:15 p.m., cheered almost everything Favre said during his 17-minute visit to the 50-yard line of the field he once owned. As the cheers died down the first time, tears were evident in Favre’s eyes. Asked if he had game day butterflies, Favre said, “Worse.” “Playing at Lambeau Field, certainly coming out of that tunnel, there’s nothing like it on this
LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps
earth,” Favre continued. “I’ll say this, ‘I’ve also run out of that tunnel (visitors) and that was scary. I’d much rather go through that tunnel right there.” It was after a video highlight tribute and another round of “MVP” chants that Favre noticeably choked up. It was then that he acknowledged that he never expected the response he got from a crowd that bought up the 67,000 available tickets in a matter of hours. “I knew there were a lot of tickets sold,” he said. “I figured there would be a lot of people in the stands. But I wasn’t expecting this type of ovation. All I can say is that I hope it was as much fun for them watching me as it was for me (playing in front of them).” Eventually, Favre needed to go. The induction banquet and unveiling of the banner signifying the retirement of his No. 4 were waiting. In summing things up, Favre saluted the fans again, choking up after telling the crowd, “I can tell you thank you until tomorrow. It wouldn’t be enough.” At that time, he looked down, put the mike to his forehead and tried to collect himself. “I’m truly honored and blessed to be here before you but to be here forever,” he said. A few minutes later, he walked off the field back in the embrace of his people.
Son says Starr improving Green Bay, Wis. — Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr’s son said his father’s health is improving following two stokes and a mild heart attack. Bart Starr Jr. said Saturday night that that his 81-year-old father had started “turning the corner in a significant way.” The younger Starr spoke during the induction ceremony for another former Green Bay quarterback, Brett Favre, into the franchise’s Hall of Fame. Starr’s family said last month that he was participating in a clinical trial using stem cells as a possible treatment for strokes. Starr fell ill in September. The younger Starr said his father hopes to return to Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving night, when Favre’s No. 4 will go up on the stadium’s interior facade, joining other retired numbers.
Deflategate game ball sold A memento of Deflategate infamy has a price, and it’s nearly $44,000. A ball used by the New England Patriots in last season’s AFC Championship win over the Indianapolis Colts sold at auction for $43,740 on Saturday. The ball, which was sold by auction house Lelands.com, is the only known ball tied to the Deflategate game that is in the public domain, ESPN reported. The ball was sold by Laura Anthony, who was handed the ball by Patriots wide receiver Brandon LaFell following a third-quarter touchdown by teammate LeGarrette Blount. Still, it’s not clear whether the ball was used by the Patriots in the first half of their blowout win. According to an NFL-commissioned investigation, officials reinflated each of the Patriots’ balls at halftime after finding they were underinflated. Whether the ball sold at auction was ever used in an underinflated state is unknown. In May, attorney Ted Wells concluded in his investigation it was “more probable than not” that Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was “generally aware” of team attendants deflating footballs prior to the AFC Championship game on Jan. 18. Brady was suspended for four games by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, but appealed the decision last month. Goodell has yet to announce a decision regarding the appeal. In addition to Brady’s suspension, the NFL fined the Patriots $1 million and took away a pair of future draft picks from the team.

BRITISH OPEN
Johnson battles wind, keeps lead
because he finished his second round Friday. Not so unusual — at least not now — was Tiger Woods. He missed the cut for the third time in the last four majors. One month after a three-putt from 12 feet cost him a shot at the U.S. Open, Johnson walked the Old Course with a swagger. He did enough damage over 13 holes Friday that even a couple of bogeys didn’t get him off track, and he showed in the short time he played Saturday he could handle the wind.
“Every aspect of your game is challenged,” said Johnson, who was at 10-under 134. Paul Lawrie, the 46-year-old Scot who won a crazy Open at Carnoustie in 1999, played bogey-free over the final 14 holes for a 70 and was two shots behind. Louis Oosthuizen (70) and Jason Day (71) joined the large group at 7-under 137 that included Adam Scott and Zach Johnson. Jordan Spieth, going after the third leg of the Grand Slam, shot 72 and was five behind.
Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland finished his second round on Friday and is at 2 under for the tournament, eight strokes off the lead. Woodland is paired with Phil Mickelson for today’s third round. As gusts began to top 40 mph when the second round resumed in the morning, Johnson chose to chip up the steep slope at the front of the par-5 14th green. He didn’t hit quite hard enough. And then, the player with a reputation of being in too
much of a hurry at the majors made the mistake of taking his time. An inch away from placing his coin behind the ball to mark it, a gust moved his ball and it picked up enough momentum to roll off the green and cause Spieth to race toward his ball and then jump out of the way. “My coin was about to hit the ground when it took off,” Johnson said. “Then I went to mark it again, and it took off again. And then Jordan was running to his ball. It was pretty funny. I was
laughing at him. I wasn’t laughing at myself.” Three putts later, Johnson had his second bogey of the week. One hole later, the R&A realized it was too windy to continue. Johnson returned nearly 11 hours later, made two solid pars and finished with his birdie. It was the fourth time in the last six rounds at the majors that he has had at least a share of lead, though not when it mattered — at the end. This might be his best chance yet. Spieth three-putted for par on the 14th hole and swiped his putter in disgust at leaving two of those putts short. He had another three-putt from about 90 feet on the 17th hole. But he stayed in the game by driving the 18th green for a birdie. “I believe I’m still in contention. I still believe I can win this tournament,” Spieth said. But after spending two days playing alongside Johnson, he also realized a third straight major will require some help. “I need a really solid round tomorrow because Dustin is not letting up,” Spieth said. “Dustin is going to shoot a good round tomorrow with less wind, and I’m going to need to shoot a great round to really give myself a chance.” The second round didn’t finish Friday because a burst of heavy rain flooded the course.
where he found those silver spiked shoes he wore on draft night. “I got them from a Christian Louboutin manufacturer. They were pretty dope — a lot of people liked them. I stole the show with those,” he said. Of his decision to leave KU after one season he told the Sun: “It was very tough. I got off to a slow start and my numbers weren’t really up there where I wanted them to be. I had a pretty solid year, though I feel like I could have done better at the college level. But now I’m dedicating myself to the game of basketball and bettering myself every day. I don’t have to worry about school or anything right now. It’s all basketball.”
l Cliff looking good: Like Oubre, former KU forward Cliff Alexander saved his best for his last NBA summer-league game with the Brooklyn Nets. The 6-foot-8 free agent scored 14 points off 6-of17 shooting and grabbed nine rebounds while starting Friday and playing 32 minutes against the D-League all-stars. He had 13 points off 4-of-11 shooting with seven boards in a 75-68 win over Philadelphia. He had 10 points and six boards against Chicago and 13 rebounds and eight points against San Antonio. Overall, he averaged 8.5 points (off 37.7 percent shooting) and 5.2 rebounds in six games in Vegas. He averaged 11.3
points in the last four games. In five games for Brooklyn in the Orlando summer league, Alexander averaged 7.4 points and 6.2 rebounds a game. “I’m going to show people,” Alexander told NBA. com’s Scott Howard-Cooper in Vegas. “I just have to redeem myself. I’ve been the underdog before. I know what it takes to get back on top.” Since draft night, the Nets have signed former KU forward Thomas Robinson, as well as forwards Willie Reed and Andrea Bargani. If Alexander is cut by Brooklyn, he’s likely shown enough to be picked up by another team. “I was thinking I’m not good enough,” he told nba.com of his thoughts on draft night when he
was not selected. “Can I play this level? Was it a mistake for me to leave college? I had a lot of doubts. But I’m back confident now. I’m good.” l Kaun to join Cavs?: NBA.com’s John Schuhmann reports that former KU forward Sasha Kaun sat in the stands for a Las Vegas summer-league game Friday with Cleveland Cavs GM David Griffin, Cavs coaches David Blatt, Tyronn Lue and Larry Drew, plus phenom LeBron James. Kaun played the last seven seasons with CSKA Moscow, making about $2.9 million per year. He has said he’d like to play in the NBA for Cleveland, which holds his rights from draft night, 2008. Schuhmann says the Cavs
can offer Kaun about $1.3 million this season. The Cavs could trade him to a team that could pay him more. That (money) is probably something that shouldn’t be a problem,” Kaun told Cleveland.com. “Hopefully coming to this team, it will give us an opportunity to win, and winning is more important to me than money. I don’t think I want to do it because of the money. Just play basketball and enjoy it and play with some really great players. That’s the more important thing. “My interest level is very high. I definitely would like to play here, especially with the Cavs, you know, a team that’s got a chance to win a championship,” Kaun added.
returning defensive player did his own version of “The Bird” from Memorial Stadium’s south end zone as Barrie closed down the segment. Goodman is one of four Jayhawks who will represent Kansas Football on Monday in Dallas at the Big 12 Conference’s annual media days. He will be joined by tight end Ben Johnson, offensive lineman Jordan Shelley-Smith and, of course, first-year head coach David Beaty. ESPN briefly caught up with Beaty during Saturday’s Campus Crawl segment, and KU’s fourth head coach in the past seven seasons outlined what his Jayhawks had emphasized most this offseason.
“I think the biggest challenge for us is just staying focused on us,” Beaty said. “Us getting better as a team and the things we can control.”

KU football reunion Several former Jayhawks who played at Memorial Stadium in the 1960s and 1970s were back in town this weekend for a reunion. The three-day trip down Memory Lane began with a welcome home gathering at the Eldridge Hotel on Friday night and continued with a full day on Saturday, when the former Jayhawks toured the facilities at Rock Chalk Park in the morning, the Anderson Family Football Complex and then enjoyed an evening
Harris re-ups with Nike Former KU cornerback Chris Harris, who on Friday appeared during a segment on ESPN’s SportsCenter as well, announced this weekend that he had signed a new endorsement deal with Nike. Terms of the deal were unavailable. Harris, now in his fifth season with the Denver Broncos, joined the NFL as an undrafted free agent before the 2011 season and has since become widely regarded as one of the top cornerbacks in the league. Last December, Harris agreed to a five-year, $42.5 million contract extension with Denver.
in South Korea was convincing enough to conclude he’s more effective at small forward than shooting guard, which brings us back to the need for Svi to become the latest Jayhawk to make a huge leap forward from freshman to sophomore season. For a 6-foot-8 player, the Ukrainian teenager who just turned 18 on June 10 grades high in the
areas of quick feet, seeing passing opportunities others don’t, dribbling with speed and running the floor swiftly. Also, when teammates talk about a young player shooting great in practice, eventually that tends to translate to games. Svi shot just .288 from long range a year ago, but it doesn’t take a great leap of faith to believe he could take that
up to .388 as a sophomore, based on how impressed teammates consistently are with his shooting ability. Brannen Greene is better suited to backing up Selden, and freshman Lagerald Vick needs major seasoning, particularly defensively, before joining the rotation. So it’s up to Svi to show he’s up to backing up Mason and Graham.
St. Andrews, Scotland (ap) — Even with 155
years of history, the British Open can still serve up some strange twists at St. Andrews. Dustin Johnson gave Saturday some semblance of order. The second round lasted nearly 39 hours from the first tee shot to the final putt. Brooks Koepka hit one putt in 30 minutes, and he might still be on the 11th green except that he refused to keep going because his golf ball wouldn’t stay put. Jordan Spieth, who won the Masters and U.S. Open on the strength of his great short game, three-putted five times in one round and still kept alive his hopes of a Grand Slam. If that wasn’t enough, 40 mph gusts that led to a 101⁄2-hour stoppage meant the British Open will end on Monday for the first time in 27 years. For all the chaos on the Old Course, and for all the debate whether play should have even started Saturday because of the wind, Johnson only cared about the finish. He drove the 18th green and took two putts from 150 feet for birdie and a 3-under 69. That gave him a oneshot lead over Danny Willett of England, who for the second straight year did not hit a single shot in the British Open on Saturday. Last year it was because he missed the cut. This time it was

guys are coming in more confident now, the way they’re working out and having these different trainers that some people didn’t get. I think just having great people around, me, Brad (Beal), those guys know how the NBA goes and we can help him out.” Of Oubre, who has a 7-2 wingspan, Wall added: “I think he’s going to be great for us. I think he’s somebody like Otto (Porter) but probably more athletic and able to move. Otto is more methodical, moving at his own pace.” l Shoe talk: The Las Vegas Sun asked Oubre

While sitting in the chair, Goodman allowed Master Barber and longtime Lawrence resident Tim “Nelly” Nelson to demonstrate the sack dance they came up with together that Goodman hopes to use often during the upcoming season. “It’s just The Bird.

it was really important to try to squeak this one out,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. The Royals finished with 17 hits, including five doubles, and improved to 5-1 in extra-inning games. The White Sox tied it in the ninth on a two-out, two-run double by J.B. Shuck. Royals closer Greg Holland retired the first two batters before Adam LaRoche singled and Alexei Ramirez walked. Shuck’s hit handed Holland his third blown save in 23 opportunities. “There were several pitches I didn’t execute very well, which is inexcusable,” Holland said. “I got to be better than that.” In the 10th, Cain walked and advanced on a wild pitch but was doubled off second on a lineout. Geovany Soto just missed a home run when he doubled off the centerfield wall in the White Sox 12th. “We were behind all day and we seemed to just chip away,” White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “We couldn’t find that one to go ahead.”

National League Cubs 4, Braves 0 Atlanta — Jon Lester lost his bid for a no-hitter in the eighth inning — a try revived by an official scorer’s reversal — but ended the longest winless streak of his career as the Chicago Cubs shut out Atlanta. A chopper in the first inning by Atlanta’s Nick Markakis was originally ruled a hit, then the scorer changed it in the top of the seventh to an error on third baseman Kris Bryant.

Fan throws cup of urine at leader ————
Accusation of doping also hurled at Froome Mende, France (ap) — Being doused in liquids by roadside fans goes with the terrain of being a Tour de France rider. But this spectator was yelling “doper!” at Chris Froome and the liquid couldn’t have been more unwelcome. “No mistake, it was urine,” the race leader said. While Stage 14 signaled a double celebration for British cycling, with Froome extending his lead and fellow Briton Stephen Cummings getting a first win for South African team MTNQhubeka on Nelson Mandela Day, the unpleasant assault dampened the leader’s mood. Froome blamed “very irresponsible” reporters for turning public opinion against him and his Sky team. Just as he did in winning the Tour for the first time in 2013, the Kenya-born Briton has faced pointed questions about his dominant performances — and those of his teammates — along with insinuations of doping. Froome said he spotted the spectator acting bizarrely about a third of the way into the day’s 178-kilometer (111-mile) west-to-east ride from Rodez to Mende. The route through plains and hills on the fringes of the Massif Central region included a detour through the breathtakingly spectacular Tarn gorges. “I saw this guy just peering around and I thought, ‘That looks a bit strange,’” he said. “As I got there he just sort of launched this cup toward me and said (in French) ‘Doper!’ “That’s unacceptable on so many levels.” His Sky teammate Richie Porte said another person, also seemingly a spectator, thumped him with a “full-on punch” a few days earlier on a climb in the Pyrenees. Porte suggested journalists may be putting riders in danger by “whipping up all the rubbish that they are.” Froome echoed that thinking. “I certainly wouldn’t blame the public for this,” he said. “I would blame some of the reporting on the race that has been very irresponsible. “It is no longer the riders who are bringing the sport into disrepute now, it’s those individuals, and they know who they are.” He refused to identify specific journalists or reports, but said: “They set that tone to people and obviously people believe what they see in the media.” Although such assaults remain rare, Froome is not the first rider in Tour history to have been doused by urine, nor is Porte the first to be punched. Still, the aggression shows how their generation is paying the price for decades of damage done by dopers, none more infamous than Lance Armstrong, who was stripped of seven Tour victories and confessed to systematic cheating after years of lying. In the lingering atmosphere of distrust, Froome’s repeated as-
surances that he is clean have fallen on deaf ears. “Unfortunately this is the legacy that has been handed to us by the people before us, people who have won the Tour only to disappoint fans a few years later,” Froome said. “If this is part of the process we have to go through to get the sport to the better place, obviously I’m here, I’m doing it,” he added. “I’m not going to give up the race because a few guys are shouting insults.” Especially when only the Alps loom as the last major obstacle between the 2013 winner and a second victory in Paris on July 26. On a fiercely steep final climb to an airfield above Mende, Froome again proved untouchable. While other podium contenders labored up the three kilometers (just under two miles) with an average 10-percent gradient, Froome caught Nairo Quintana and, to show who’s the boss, beat the Colombian with a finishing sprint. “Every little second will help,” said Froome. “I thought I might as well give a little nudge for the line, see if I could take another second or two.” He took one second from Quintana and more from others who are, in effect, now competing for second and third spot on the Champs-Elysees podium. Tejay van Garderen, the American leader of the BMC team, suffered most on the climb among the big names. From second overall at the start of the stage, he slipped to third and is now 3 minutes, 32 seconds off Froome’s pace. Quintana vaulted from third to second place, but trails Froome by 3:10, a comfortable cushion for the British rider to carry into the Alps in the last week. Cummings’ MTNQhubeka team wore special helmets in Mandela’s honor and met Saturday morning to concoct a winning strategy for the day meant to encourage South Africans to emulate his humanitarian legacy and recognize the decades he spent fighting apartheid. “Qhubeka” means “to progress” or “move forward” in the language of the Nguni people of southern Africa, and the 34-year-old British rider did just that to dash French hopes on the day when France’s President Francois Hollande was visiting the race. Cummings ambushed two French riders, Romain Bardet and Thibaut Pinot, on the short flat section to the airfield after riding at his own pace up the steep final climb where, he said, “everyone went bananas.” “Pinot and Bardet were just ahead and I used them as the carrot dangling in front of me for motivation,” he said. After reaching the summit together, the French pair made the mistake of dawdling, watching each other and neglecting the danger from Cummings — who used his speed on the flat to catch them from behind and claim the stage win.

A MASON & HAMLIN BABY GRAND PIANO ONCE OWNED BY LEGENDARY KANSAS UNIVERSITY BASKETBALL COACH PHOG ALLEN is pictured in the chancellor’s residence, The Outlook, on the KU campus. The piano was a gift to the university from Lawrence couple Winnie and Al Gallup, pictured below, who bought the piano from the Allen family in the 1950s, and was delivered to the chancellor’s residence after a restoration effort by the School of Music. Al Gallup originally sold the piano to Allen, bottom photo, in 1936.

Small wonder: ‘Ant-Man’ fun, if flawed
I
n “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the megasuperheroes are taken out of their usual hi-tech, urban surroundings and brought down to Earth when they hide out at a Midwestern farmhouse. It’s a scene that writer/director Joss Whedon had to fight to keep in the movie, and it’s one of the best. In Marvel’s “AntMan,” the titular character (played by Paul Rudd) suffers an even more ignoble juxtaposition: He’s wearing his retro-cool, ’60s spacesuit-looking outfit in a bathroom. While he hides from his roommates behind a shower curtain, and suddenly shrinks down smaller than the tub stopper, running away from the water on filthy porcelain, trying not to get washed down the drain. One of the biggest pleasures in the tonally challenged “Ant-Man” is its overall subversion of the superhero genre. The movie still feel like a Marvel product — and it suffers from a typically one-dimensional bad guy (Corey Stoll) — but it also has a lot of fun turning expectation on its head. The irony of “AntMan” is that while its action scenes and characters feel small and insignificant in the larger picture of Marvel superheroes who consistently save the world, the piece of new technology introduced in the film couldn’t be bigger. The “Pym particle,” named after its inventor, Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), is a game– changer for the entire universe, and something Pym has been hiding from the military ever since trying it out himself in secret. When his protege Darren Cross (Stoll) develops a suit called Yellowjacket some 25 years later and is eager to give it up to the highest bidder, Pym chooses a good man in a desperate situation to wear his original AntMan outfit and stop the sale. That man is Scott Lang (Rudd), a hacker/cat burglar with a master’s degree in electrical engineering. After a brief stint in prison, he’s trying to “go straight” for his daughter but he can’t even keep a job at Baskin-Robbins. He eventually gives up and plans a heist with a group of criminals specifically designed for comic relief. Rudd is his usual likable self, and he’s perfect for a role that requires a lot of exasperation. He’s an everyman who’s easy to root for from the get-go, and his droll sense of humor allows him to comment on the stranger goingson with the appropriate amount of “WTF?” The script for “AntMan” was written by original director Edgar Wright and his collaborator Joe Cornish, and then was re-written by Rudd and Adam McKay after Wright left the project. It’s full of Wright’s
SCENE STEALERS
ERIC MELIN
eric@scene-stealers.com signature surreal comic touches, especially in the action scenes, which is where “Ant-Man” at once feels like an extension of and departure from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. When it tries to explain things such as how Ant-Man can summon a colony of ants, Pied Piper-style, however, the script doesn’t really stick the landing. As “Team America: World Police” so eloquently put it: “We’re gonna need a montage!” Reed has some trouble balancing the more ridiculous aspects of a character that most people wouldn’t go near, but that’s also part of the fun of “Ant-Man.” Marvel proved last year with a talking raccoon in “Guardians of the Galaxy” that the studio isn’t afraid to get weird, so it’s nice to see it still taking some chances. What “Ant-Man” is missing that “Guardians” had is a certain level of confidence. “Guardians” established a smart-alecky tone from the get-go that was reinforced by those characters during their journey, while “AntMan” feels a little more all over the place. Still, it’s refreshing to see a Marvel movie that has the opportunity to end with a big action climax in a sleek, hi-tech facility and then purposefully move away to a polar opposite environment. If you’ve seen the trailer, this part of the movie has probably already been given away, but I hadn’t, so I when Ant-Man fought Yellowjacket, I was giggling like a schoolboy throughout. “Ant-Man” is 2 hours and is rated PG-13 for sci-fi action violence and various sidekick buffoonery.

Paul Rudd in “Ant-Man” experience that felt like a Hollywood narrative unfolding before your eyes. “Amy” doesn’t follow the same strategy, but does contain plenty of material never seen before by audiences, as it follows Winehouse’s music career alongside her history of bulimia, alcoholism, drug abuse and deliberate self-
harm. “Amy” is 128 minutes and is rated R for language and drug material. — Eric Melin is the editorin-chief of Scene-Stealers.

‘Amy’
‘Amy’ Now playing at Liberty Hall is “Amy,” the documentary that rode huge buzz from the Cannes Film Festival into breaking box office records in the U.K. and near-universal acclaim. “Amy” follows the short, tragic life of British pop singer Amy Winehouse, and has caused quite a stir. The film has been disowned by her family, especially her father, who does not come off in a good light. “Amy” was directed by Asif Kapadia, whose extraordinary 2010 doc “Senna” used exclusively archival footage to tell the story of Brazilian car-racing champ Ayrton Senna. The result was a “you are there”

Piano CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D
“I don’t remember any other piano,” Pine says of the storied instrument, which settled into its new home at the residence of KU chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little last month. “It was just always the piano in our house.”
‘A perfect place’ The story of how it got there is a fascinating little nugget of Lawrence history, says Michael Arp of the KU Endowment Association, who helped facilitate Al and Winnie Gallup’s donation of the piano to the university last fall. The instrument, which recently underwent a complete restoration at the hands of KU School of Music piano technician Vincent Mrykalo, will now reside permanently at The Outlook. “The connection to the Gallups, who have a long history with KU, and the fact that it was connected to Phog Allen’s family, makes it a perfect place for the instrument to be,” says Arp, who serves as KU Endowment’s development director for the School of Music and the Lied Center. “A place where it’ll be enjoyed by a lot of people for many years to come.” It’s the most recent — and tentatively the last — move for Phog Allen’s old piano, which long-time owner Al Gallup first encountered as a sales representative at the now-defunct Bell Music Company nearly 80 years ago. Al, who had secured the job through a KU fraternity brother, was working the floor at Bell one day in 1936 when the

But Winnie, who played the organ at Lawrence’s First Presbyterian Church for 67 years, found it increasingly difficult to keep making music at her new home. She was getting older, and a move from the facility’s independentliving section to its nursing unit left the couple’s already-cramped quarters too tight for a baby grand piano.

‘Go Set a Watchman’ reveals a darker side of Maycomb By David L. Ulin Los Angeles Times
It would be a mistake to read Harper Lee’s “Go Set a Watchman” as a sequel to her 1960 Pulitzer Prize-winning “To Kill a Mockingbird.” Yes, it takes place a generation after the earlier book, involving a visit from Scout Finch — now 26 and using her given name, Jean Louise — to her hometown of Maycomb, Ala., from New York, where she has gone to live. Yes, Maycomb has changed: Scout’s older brother, Jem, we learn in the opening chapter, is dead, victim of a congenitally disordered heart, and her father, Atticus, has not only grown old but also darker and more compromised. There are references to a trial from the past, during which Atticus defended a black man against charges of raping a white woman: “Consent was easier to prove,” Lee writes, “than under normal conditions — the defendant had only one arm.” Such a description recalls Tom Robinson, whose trial for a similar offense is at the center of “To Kill a Mockingbird.” “His left arm was fully twelve inches shorter than his right,” the author explains in that novel, “and hung dead at his side. It ended in a small shriveled hand.” And yet, those two trials come to very different outcomes; Tom was memorably convicted in “To Kill a Mockingbird,” even with no evidence against him, whereas in “Go Set a Watchman,” Atticus “accomplished what was never before or afterwards done in Maycomb
County: He won acquittal for a colored boy on a rape charge.” That’s just one of many points of divergence or overlap between the novels, which are related in a complicated way. According to numerous accounts, “Go Set a Watchman” is the earliest version of the manuscript that became “To Kill a Mockingbird,” acquired by Lippincott in 1957 and subjected, under the guidance of editor Tay Hohoff, to what Smithsonian Magazine once called “a title-on-down revision.” What does this mean for us as readers? That we can’t help but engage with “Go Set a Watchm a n ” through a filter of comparison. L e e introduces us to Maycomb, its history and inconsistencies, as if we have never been here before. We learn, in a passage virtually identical to one in “To Kill a Mockingbird,” of the town’s origin as county seat, after a tavern keeper named Sinkfield “made the surveyors drunk one evening, induced them to bring forward their maps and charts, lop off a little here, add a bit there, and adjust the center of the county to meet his requirements.” We encounter Atticus’ even-handedness: his insistence on “always (trying) to put himself in his client’s shoes.” In “Go Set a Watchman,” however,
this is not a marker of his moral dependability but rather of his moral corruption. Corruption? Yes — for this is not the Atticus of “To Kill a Mockingbird.” In “Go Set a Watchman,” he has turned a treacherous corner, aligning with the citizen’s council and the Ku Klux Klan. “Now think about this,” he tells his daughter. “What would happen if all the Negroes in the South were suddenly given full civil rights? I’ll tell you, there’d be another Reconstruction. Would you want your s t a t e governments run by people who don’t know how to run ‘em? ... We’re outnumbered, you know.” This is the conflict of the novel, Jean Louise’s struggle to come to some accommodation with a father who is not who she believed he was. Throughout the first part of the book, Lee builds the tension, drawing us in slowly, revealing the Maycomb her protagonist thought she knew. We visit Finch’s Landing, experience flashbacks to her childhood with Jem and Dill (although not Boo Radley) and meet her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Henry Clinton. The pace can be, at times, meandering, but the focus appears to sharpen with her discovery, among her father’s reading materials, of a racist tract called “The
Black Plague.” “The one human being she had ever fully and wholeheartedly trusted had failed her,” Lee writes, “the only man she had ever known to whom she could point and say with expert knowledge, ‘He is a gentleman, in his heart he is a gentlemen,’ had betrayed her, publicly, grossly, and shamelessly.” That’s a vivid setup, and it indicates the promise Hohoff recognized in this draft nearly 60 years ago. Promise, however, remains the operative word, for “Go Set a Watchman” is an apprentice effort, and it falls apart in the second half. Despite the potential for drama, Lee develops her story through long dialogue sequences that read less like conversation than competing arguments. There is little sense of urgency, and key aspects of the narrative — Jean Louise’s naïvete, for one thing, her inability to see Maycomb for what it is — are left largely unresolved. If I’m hesitant to level such a criticism, it’s because, although “Go Set a Watchman” comes marketed as an autonomous novel, it is most interesting as a literary artifact. How did Lee take the frame of this fiction and collapse it to create “To Kill a Mockingbird,” finding a narrative fluency only hinted at within this draft? How did she refine her language, her scene construction, discover a way to enlarge what are here little more than political and social commonplaces, to expose a universal human core? Regardless of the answers, “Go Set a Watchman” shows where she began. It is a starker book than “To Kill a Mocking-
bird,” more reactive to its moment; a common theme involves what its characters regard as the overreach of the U.S. Supreme Court, which at the time Lee was writing had recently ruled on school desegregation in Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka. Most interesting, however, is the glimpse it offers of Jean Louise as an adult, her desire to stake out a territory of her own. It is difficult, knowing the history of both this novel and its author, not to read those longings as belonging to Lee herself, the reasons for her own long New York exile, her silence in the wake of “To Kill a Mockingbird.” That too raises questions we can never answer about why “Go Set a Watchman” is being published now. Certainly, it changes — as it must — our sense of Atticus, although that is complicated by this being not a follow-up but instead an early version of the book. At what point did Lee soften her portrayal? And what does it mean to read this version of him now? In the end, it suggests a vivid set of contradictions, as much between the author and the character as between the character and himself. “Hell is eternal apartness,” Lee writes. “What had she done that she must spend the rest of her years reaching out with yearning for them, making secret trips to long ago, making no journey to the present? I am their blood and bones, I have dug in this ground, this is my home. But I am not their blood, the ground doesn’t care who digs it, I am a stranger at a cocktail party.”

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION
By Lucas Wetzel
Hot stuff: Events worth going outside for
T
emperatures have been unbearably hot lately (at least from what I hear — I haven’t been outside in days), but anyone willing to brave the heat will find a number of fun activities, concerts and sporting events this week in Kansas City. This Friday and Saturday, the third annual Kansas City Dance Festival will be held at the Folly Theater with performances at 7:30 p.m. The Dance Festival features over a dozen dancers from different companies across the United States and a rare opportunity to see them all perform in one place. Tickets start at $25 each and are available online at kcdancefestival.com. The biggest picnic in the city is happening from 4 to 7 p.m. this afternoon when Kansas City’s Big Picnic takes over the lawn of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art as part of the annual Donald J. Hall Sculpture Park Celebration. The picnic is free for guests of all ages, including pets on a leash, and
will include music from Victor & Penny, a food truck, puppets, a redand-white blanket, en plein air painters and a giant adirondack chair for photo opportunities. The Big Picnic will be held rain or shine. As previewed in last week’s column, Fringe Festival Kansas City continues through this weekend. If you aren’t able to see many of the performances, Sunday, July 26 is dedicated to presenting highlights from the show throughout the day, as encore performances of the week’s best attended and most acclaimed shows will take place starting at 1:30 p.m. and running through 6 p.m. Details are online at kcfringe.org. At Starlight Theatre, a production of the classic musical “Mary Poppins” begins Friday, with performances running nightly at 8 p.m. through Aug. 2 (except for July 27, when there is no show). Tickets are $14 and up at KCStarlight. com. Summer is the right season for a visit from Cali-

ARTS NOTE
DATEBOOK 19 TODAY
starting at $32. Following their impressive representation in the 2015 All-Star Game, the Royals return to the K on Monday for a homestand against the Pittsburgh Pirates, followed by a weekend series with the Houston Astros. Tickets are for sale at royals.mlb.com. If you’re planning to drink a beer at the game, drop by the Craft & Draft bar in the upper left field seats. Craft & Draft, which opened this season, offers 75 varieties of beer in bottles, cans and on tap, all for $10 each, as well as tasty gastro pub fare and a nice (if distant) view of the field. The way I see it, if you’re paying ballpark prices, you might as well get some quality suds. At least that’s what I told myself after looking at my bank statement following a recent game.

You’ve built a website for your business, but are you sure people will find it when they use Google and other search engines? Free State Digital’s search optimization service will evaluate your site to make sure you’ve included content and code to attract higher search rankings.
There are few marketing tools more valuable than a good list of email addresses. If you already have your list, Free State Digital’s email services can design and write emails that will create interest in your business and generate more sales. If you don’t have a list, we can help get you started.
Our team of experienced writers can help by creating posts for your blog and composing press releases. A blog tells your business story and establishes you as an expert in your industry or field. Research shows that posting new blog content just once a month can increase your site traffic.
