Lawrence city commissioners agreed Tuesday night to allow a local company to host The Urban Slide, a twoday waterslide event on George Williams Way, but they insisted it be moved to CITY the north side COMMISSION of Sixth Street where it will be less likely to cause traffic congestion and other problems. They also agreed that the city needs to re-examine its

Plan for Central District will transform sleepy hillside into bustling neighborhood By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

This year’s shuttering and planned razing of McCollum Hall and Stouffer Place will leave the east slopes of Daisy and Irving hills a blank canvas. Not for long. Kansas University’s Campus Master Plan calls for transforming the sleepy, tucked-away hillside into a bustling neighborhood with mixed-use devel-

opment, new science buildings, new student housing facilities and a multimodal path. The area makes up a large portion of KU’s Central District, one of three districts the master plan divides campus into. KU’s goal is to have the Central District vision realized — and all buildings constructed — in three years, according to university spokesman Joe Monaco. Please see KU, page 6A

Save the date: KU schedules McCollum Hall demolition K ansas University has picked McCollum Hall’s last day standing. Demolition has been scheduled for 7 a.m. Nov. 25, according to university spokeswoman Erinn Barcomb-Peterson. Further details will be firmed up and shared at a later time, she said. McCollum is big — 10 floors and three wings — and we can only guess its demolition will be dramatic. Nov. 25, a Wednesday, is the first day of Thanksgiving Break, so students residing in the other Daisy Hill residence halls should be gone for the weekend

and safely away from the area by then. In the meantime, KU is dismantling the building’s interior, including removing and donating old furniture and securing new homes for the McCollum brothers’ portraits that hung in the lobby for decades. KU also is sharing McCollum memories online at housing.ku.edu. The two new residence halls that will replace McCollum, Oswald and Self halls, open to students next month. — By Sara Shepherd

With no applicants as of yet and a little less than a week to go before the Monday deadline, East Ninth Project officials have a frustrating situation on their hands with the project’s newly conceived associate artist program, said Porter Arneill, the Lawrence director of arts and culture, on Tuesday. Yet, despite the uncertainty, Arneill said he remains hopeful about the status of the program, which would select at least three local artists to work alongside panel-selected artists in the East Ninth Project’s commissioned opportunities. “My experience is, these things don’t show up until the last minute,” said Porter, who also hinted at the possibility of re-issuing the call for artists. “There’s a bit of a learning curve here in the sense that I don’t know if this has ever been done before. I think maybe artists are having trouble wrapping their minds around it.” Please see ARTISTS, page 2A

process for reviewing such applications, acknowledging complaints from neighborhood residents that they were given little notice or information about the proposal before it came up on a City Commission agenda. “That site is probably better, logistically,” said Ryan Robinson, owner of Silverback Enterprises, a Lawrence company that plans to host the event. Robinson said his company has produced similar events in about 10 other cities this year. It involves what is commonly known as a Slip-NSlide but one that is 1,000 feet long and requires significantly more water. The event is scheduled for Aug. 8 and 9. He said he initially proposed doing it on George Williams Way, south of Sixth Street, a residential area that would be closer to where more children live. He also said the equipment requires a certain amount of downhill

slope to take participants all the way down the slide. But residents of that area, many of whom said they received official notice of the proposal only a few days ago, said that the original idea presented a host of potential logistical problems such as traffic congestion, parking problems, and the likelihood that visitors would try to walk between houses, through private yards, as they come and go from the event. James Frank, who lives in the neighborhood, said many homes in that area have restrictive covenants that prohibit them from installing fences. “I can see people cutting through yards to get to the event,” he said. “There is a public safety issue.” Several residents had come to the meeting to express support or opposition to the proposal. But the opposition quickly faded once it became apparent that all five commissioners favored moving the event to the north, between Sixth Street and Rock Chalk Park Drive. Residents on both sides of the issue also agreed that there was insufficient

notice about the proposal. And even Robinson said that other cities where his company has produced events have more stringent notice requirements. Mayor Jeremy Farmer apologized to those residents saying, “This was kind of sprung on you,” and said the City Commission would review the city’s notice requirements in the near future.

Sign ordinance Also Tuesday, commissioners voted down a request from city staff to draft amendments to the city’s sign ordinance that would have allowed permanent signs around the Lawrence Sports Pavilion for corporate sponsors of that facility. Officials said they are pursuing corporate sponsors, and the proposal would have allowed them to place signs both inside the facility and on its exterior. They were also considering suggestions to allow banners to be affixed to light poles in the parking area. But the ideas being suggested did not comply with the city’s existing sign code, and officials were asking permission

COMMISSIONED PROJECTS There are three planned commissioned installations as part of the East Ninth Project: • East Ninth Artists: Up to four artists will be selected in the fields of filmmaking, visual art, photography and music who will work to build a reciprocal relationship with Lawrence residents and create works of art around that exchange to be installed publicly on East Ninth Street. Lead artists will be selected via a panel of Citizen Advisory Committee members; the chosen artists will then get the chance to help select their associates from the pool of local applicants, Arneill said. Once selected, the lead artists will work with the project’s design team to create a vision for the East Ninth Project. After a portfolio review at the Lawrence Arts Center on Tuesday, Arneill and other project officials have narrowed the leadartist candidates down to six for each commissioned opportunity. Interviews will begin Friday at the Lawrence Arts Center — though as of Tuesday, Arneill said the location may change to City Hall — and a decision should immediately follow, Arneill said. “There won’t be proposals — that’s the unique thing here,” he said. “In this case, we’re doing what is becoming more popular. It’s more of a job interview process.” A total of $15,000 has been set aside for the program, which could be split evenly between the associate artists or divvied up according to each commissioned project’s budget. It will depend on what the lead artists have in mind, Arneill said. “Until we know what people are looking for and what their ideas are, it’s difficult to see how this will play out,” Arneill said. “It’ll be interesting to see who responds.” Applications for the associate artist program are due Aug. 3. In addition to the Citizen Advisory Committee’s monthly meeting at 6:30 p.m. today at City Hall, project officials will host artist interviews from roughly 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday. Both meetings are to draft amendments to the code as it applies to general public facilities. That proposal failed on a 2-3 vote. Commissioners Stuart Boley, Matthew Herbert and Leslie Soden voted against it. Farmer and Commissioner Mike Amyx voted yes. The three opponents, however, were divided in their reasons. Soden said she opposed the idea of signs on the building, while Herbert said he opposed giving city government more latitude on signage than it gives private businesses. He also questioned why the city has a sign ordinance in the first place.

Email him at phancock@ljworld.com.

• Integrated Artists: Up to three artists will be selected to explore one of three topics — lighting, public gathering space, and movement — and create works inspired by East Ninth Street and Lawrence. • “Try It Out” event: Up to six “talents” will be selected to participate in a public event on Ninth Street to illustrate how the East Ninth corridor can be used by artists and performers. open to the public.

East Ninth items on City Commission agenda The East Ninth Project’s amended work plan was slated for review at this week’s Lawrence City Commission meeting, but because of new language introduced by Commissioner Leslie Soden, it will be revisited at the commission’s Aug. 4 meeting instead, Arneill said. Addressing concerns of the street being turned into a bustling “entertainment district” that could potentially diminish the neighborhood’s “rich, cultural history,” the newest draft does not call for future redevelopment/rezoning plans for surrounding or adjacent properties. The revised language describes a project that “seeks to become a vital, public street that sensitively and artfully engages each block from Massachusetts Street to Delaware Street — a cultural asset for East Lawrence and the City of Lawrence alike.” City commissioners were also set to consider authorizing the interim city manager to execute an agreement with the Lawrence Arts Center regarding the commitment of $50,000 from the Arts Center toward the city’s service contract with el dorado, inc. The agreement would also establish expectations for handling the agreements with artists regarding the project. That issue has also been pushed back to the Aug. 4 meeting. — Features reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at jhlavacek@ljworld.com and 832-6388.

Gov. to be absent for budget outline Topeka — Gov. Sam Brownback doesn’t plan to be present when his administration outlines $50 million in spending cuts to help Kansas avert a budget deficit. Brownback spokeswoman Eileen Hawley confirmed Tuesday that the Republican governor won’t be in his office. Budget director Shawn Sullivan will outline the cuts during a news conference planned for Friday. Hawley declined to discuss the governor’s planned whereabouts. Kansas Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka called Brownback’s not being present “a cowardly way out.”

Residents in unincorporated Douglas County may have an easier time recycling with a pilot program that may soon be put into motion. The project, which Douglas County Commissioners will discuss at their weekly meeting today, would establish three recycling drop-off locations within the county, said Eileen Horn, the county’s sustainability coordinator. “As a county we COUNTY currently don’t offer COMMISSION curbside recycling to residents in unincorporated areas,” Horn said. “We knew we could do an easy pilot project and see what kind of demand there is for people in the unincorporated areas.” Previously many rural county residents took their single-stream (mixed paper, plastic and metal) recyclables to Walmart’s recycling center at 3300 Iowa St., Horn said. But when the recycling facility closed last fall, it created a “definite service vacuum,” she said. The three proposed drop-off locations would be: l Douglas County Public Works Facility, 3755 East 25th St., Lawrence. l Stull United Methodist Church, 251 North 1600 Road, Lecompton. l Wakarusa Valley School, 1104 East 1000 Road, Lawrence. For the pilot program the county would likely use recycling containers provided by Honey Creek Disposal Please see RECYCLING, page 5A

Trent McKinley, the Lawrence police spokesman; I always have a huge list of calls from the weekend that I ask him to check on for me on Mondays. He was gracious enough, as always, to tell me about the following incidents from Friday through Sunday. So without further ado, here are a few weekend antics: A couple of Walmart customers allegedly pushed a store cart filled with three TVs out of the store at 550 Congressional Drive without paying for them around 10 p.m. Sunday. McKinley said the pair allegedly loaded their loot into a car, which

The two were issued notices to appear in court on suspicion of theft. lll

Someone broke a window at the Dollar General at 1811 W. Sixth St. just before 10:30 p.m. Saturday, and an employee saw a person “run past the front door of the store,” McKinley said.

Some time after 8 p.m. Friday, a man dressed as a pirate approached a man asking passersby for financial assistance in front of Weaver’s Department Store at 901 Massachusetts St. The “pirate” allegedly then stood “directly in front of the man’s sign” that he was holding to solicit donations, McKinley said. This allegedly ticked off the man, “who belligerently confronted the man dressed as the pirate” and the two began physically fighting. Police issued the two men notices to appear in court on suspicion of disorderly conduct. – This is an excerpt from Lights & Sirens, ljworld.com/lights-sirens, a public safety blog by reporter Caitlin Doornbos.

Topeka (ap) — Treatment options for the mentally ill in Kansas are inadequate because the two acute care psychiatric hospitals in the state lack space and smaller mental health facilities are underfunded, according to a report from a special state task force. The Adult Continuum of Care Committee said in a report finalized last HEALTH week that the state’s psychiatric hospitals in Larned and Osawatomie don’t have enough bed space to treat people who need their services and smaller mental health facilities are underfunded and overburdened.

PUBLIC FORUM Broaden violence discussion Protect, defend

EDITORIALS

Great gift It’s great news that every student in Lawrence now will be able to experience the arts through a special school-only Lied Center performance each year.

he expansion of free Lied Center performances to all students in the Lawrence school district is a great gift to the community. For many years, local elementary school students have been able to enjoy a selected Lied Center performance each year. Now, thanks to fundraising efforts by the Lied Center and the Lawrence Schools Foundation, the program will be extended to include middle school and high school students. During the coming school year, kindergartners through second-graders will see “Big Bad Wolf,” and third- through fifth-graders will see the theater performance “Mistatim” set on the boundary between a Native American reservation and a ranch. Middle school students will see “Out of Bounds,” a theater performance that deals with cyber bullying, and high school students will enjoy “Black Violin,” a hip-hop musical group. Exposing local students to high-level performance art is a wonderful benefit in itself, but the program also will provide study guides and workshops to help teachers incorporate the performances into their curriculum. The performances can provide a different way for students to experience and explore educational topics. Outreach to students and other people across the state who may not have easy access to the arts has always been a priority for the Lied Center and its benefactor, Christina Hixson. Making sure that every student in Lawrence, regardless of their socioeconomic circumstances, can attend at least one Lied Center performance this year fits perfectly with that priority. An event sponsored earlier this year raised enough money to fund the school-only performances for four or five years, according to Adina Morse, executive director of the schools foundation, and the two groups hope another event on Nov. 2 will raise enough to make the performances a permanent part of the Lied Center program. Thanks to the schools foundation, the Lied Center and all of the donors who made the expansion of the schools-only performances possible. Hopefully, the next event will ensure that all future Lawrence students can share in the same artistic and educational benefits of a Lied Center performance.

This will not be a column about Sandra Bland, although it could be. Certainly there is cause for outrage over the way a Texas state trooper escalated the routine traffic stop of an indignant African-American woman into a violent arrest; she died of an apparent jail cell suicide three days later. But Chuck would say that in habitually defining police violence as a black problem, we make it smaller than it is. Chuck is a reader who responded to a question I passed on in this space a few months back from another reader, a white woman named Tracy. “What can I do?” she asked, as a private citizen, to fight police brutality against African Americans? “My suggestion may seem counter-intuitive,” wrote Chuck, “but here goes: Stop focusing on the racial component and focus on the larger problem. ... Of course, the disparity in how people are treated by the police — based on their race — is real. It is shameful. It is deadly. Still, though, it remains a subset (however horrible and painful) of the bigger problem.” Chuck goes on to say, “No country on earth is policed as we are. We have too many law enforcement agencies and individuals. They are too heavily armed. They are too militarized. They are too quick to violence. They are rarely held accountable. The false narrative that exists regarding the dangers of police work creates an inordinate sense of fear. Mix that with guns and too much authority and you have a problem. We — all of

… the argument over police brutality sometimes misses the proverbial forest for the proverbial trees.” us — have this problem. “The hyper-violent policing that is practiced in this country is a disgrace. Yes, African Americans face it at higher rates, but that is all it is ... a higher rate of the larger problem.” By way of illustration, Chuck points to video — you can find it online — of the 2013 arrest of a man he says he knows: David Connor Castellani. The clip, which has no audio, shows Castellani, then 20, yelling and pointing at officers, who are posted down the street, after his ejection from an Atlantic City casino for being underage. Four officers rush him, take him down and begin beating him — a fifth officer soon joins in. It is after they’ve got him under control, lying on the curb with five officers on top of him, that a sixth officer arrives with a police dog and sets it loose on the young man’s head and neck. Castellani’s injuries required over 200 stitches. The officers — big sur-

prise — were cleared, while Castellani — shocking! — was indicted on charges that could have put him away for 10 years. Last week, according to his attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, he entered a pretrial diversion program that will leave his record clean. She has filed a federal civil suit on his behalf. Bonjean wants to force Atlantic City, where, she says, “They don’t discipline their officers,” to either stop using canines, or accept some kind of oversight. “This isn’t the 19-frickin’-50s,” she says. So yes, Chuck has a point, the argument over police brutality sometimes misses the proverbial forest for the proverbial trees. Not that it is invalid to frame the problem in its racial dimensions; as Chuck himself says, when it comes to police violence, people of color seem to get it first and worst, and that deserves discussion. Still, it is too often the case that we — and I include myself — forget that the racial dimension is not the only dimension. In the process, we exclude from the conversation those who ought to be part of it and forfeit the strength that comes with their numbers. So perhaps one answer to “What can I do?” is this: Broaden the discussion, recognize that this “black” problem is in fact a human rights problem, help those who may feel removed — or safe — from police violence to understand that they are neither. Maybe David Castellani felt that way once. If so, he probably changed his mind when that dog began biting his head. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

Truckers impose traffic order Last week , while returning from a trip to upstate New York, my wife and I found ourselves on the highway just north of St. Louis in Southern Illinois. About 30 miles from St. Louis, we saw a sign that said that there was road construction two and one half miles ahead and that the road would shortly go from two lanes to one lane. What I found amazing was that it appeared that all of the cars on the road were, in fact, moving from two lanes down to one in an orderly fashion. As a lawyer and law professor I am always interested in the phenomenon of “voluntary compliance” with legal and other rules, particularly when there are no potential sanctions for violating rules. Many years ago, when I was a young professor I wrote an article about voluntary compliance with tax laws and how this functioned — or I should say whether this functioned — in the U.S. As it happens, I am now working on an update to that piece with a colleague of mine. So I was quite interested to see this apparent voluntary compliance with road rules. I thought that it was also interesting that there was an Illinois state police cruiser parked next to the sign announcing the lane closing.

Mike Hoeflich

“

As a lawyer and law professor I am always interested in the phenomenon of ‘voluntary compliance’ with legal and other rules…” So it may be that the implicit threat that the police might ticket those who didn’t comply made drivers get into one lane as well. But two and one half miles is a long way where highways are concerned. As soon as the police car was out of sight a number of drivers behind me began to pull out of the single lane that had formed and began to drive in the lane that would soon be shut in an attempt to jump ahead in the queue. Very quickly this formed a bottleneck and progress in the single lane came to a grinding halt. I suppose that this really didn’t surprise me. Indeed, it rather confirmed

my belief that voluntary compliance without the threat of sanctions doesn’t work very well in this country. What did surprise me after a few moments is what a number of trucks ahead of me in line began to do. I think that several of the truck drivers became annoyed at the queue jumpers and decided to impose a sanction all their own. I also suspect that these truckers were talking to each other on the radio because, within a few minutes of the start of the queue-jumping, a number of trucks moved to the right in a coordinated manner designed to stop anyone else from trying to jump ahead and boxing in those drivers who had already begun the process. It was almost a truck ballet. And it was effective. Within a few minutes, the queue-jumping ceased and the line began to move forward again. I suppose technically this might have been an example of minor vigilantism. But whatever it was, it was wonderful so far as I was concerned both as a legal scholar and as a driver who wanted to get home. Bravo to truckers everywhere! — Mike Hoeflich, a distinguished professor in the Kansas University School of Law, writes a regular column for the JournalWorld.

To the editor: Consider those brave young men who felt compelled to defend the local military recruiting office (“Kansas reviews safety of recruiting centers,” JournalWorld, July 23). No doubt evil-doers were dissuaded after seeing these shortssandals-sunglasses-baseball cap-clad defenders standing tall with their AR-15s. These patriots claimed that their “presence would send a message” and that they wanted “to let the bad guys know we’re not going to sit down and let them have their way with this country.” As a veteran myself with a son serving today in Afghanistan, I’d suggest that if these young men were truly committed to protecting this country, perhaps they should join the military or the local police force. More importantly, while standing guard, one wonders if they have pondered over who exactly the “bad guys” really are. They might consider this quote from Nietzsche: “Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.” Ray Finch, Lawrence

On guard To the editor: Two men with loaded AR-15 rifles “on guard” outside the recruiting center, certainly makes a statement to me! Once again, thank you, Gov. Brownback. All is perfectly legal and the police literally wish you a good day. But stand down fellow Lawrencians. Their parents were in the military, so they must be good people. And I’m sure as can be that they have had oodles of training with their military assault armaments, and what a good choice for the occasion. Now I’d like to make a statement. I say, as a state and society we are trending downward. Guns are not a solution, they are a problem, and those that believe that the Second Amendment, written during a different time and under vastly different circumstances should apply uninfringed today, are either ignorant or unbending because it suits their temperament! And thank you, Sen. Jerry Moran, for your super speedy legislation to ban “gun-free zones” and prohibit the president and the Department of Defense and military department secretaries from attempting to do their jobs. My hero. Look at you work at all the important voter bling issues. (Hey, you remind me of Kris Kobach.) But please tell your buddy Brownback that his “no guns allowed” sign at the governor’s mansion doesn’t square well with both your sentiments. Alan P. Miller, Baldwin City

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 29, 1915: years “Work on the new ago apartment house IN 1915 at the corner of Oread avenue and Twelfth streets is being rushed to completion so that the building will be completed by the opening of the school year at the University. The outside brick walls are all up and work will be started on the interior soon. The house is to contain several apartments and will probably be occupied by teachers and students of the school who wish to do light housekeeping. It is on the same style of architecture and interior plan as many of the newest apartment houses in Kansas City and will be an addition to the homes on the hill.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Last year, Rick Martin beat out fellow gastronomic greats Rafael and Kate Gonzales of Global Café in the Douglas County Fair’s annual Chefs Challenge. Tonight, the Limestone Pizza owner will return to the fairground showdown not as a competitor but as a “culinary interpreter” a la Ted Allen in Food Network’s “Chopped.” During the event, which is slated for 5 to 7:30 p.m. today, Martin will chat with competing chefs — Brad Brown, of the Bird Dog Bar in the

Oread; Simon Bates, of the Burger Stand. and Vaughn Good, of Hank Charcuterie — about their culinary techniques, offering up tips on integrating seasonal, local ingredients in everyday meals. As in years past, tonight’s competition — which is organized by Master Food Volunteers and Master Gardeners, both with the Douglas County Extension office — will spotlight a particular ingredient. This year’s star ingredient is eggplant, and chefs will use it, as well as other foods cultivated from local farms and

Dymacek said that after investigating further, the sheriff’s office had reason to believe Parsons “also participated with Plouffe in the incident,” and a judge signed a probable cause warrant for her arrest. She was apprehended Monday and booked into the Douglas County Jail on a $25,000 bond. At Parsons’ first court appearance on the charges Tuesday, Chief Douglas County District Judge Robert Fairchild ordered that if Parsons makes bond she must not ingest any drugs or alcohol. She would also be banned from possessing any firearms. Both Plouffe, whose bond was set at $50,000 last month, and Parsons remained in the Douglas County Jail as of Tuesday. Parsons is scheduled to appear in court today.

Man charged with assault, battery in domestic violence incident By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

James Roy Bell Jr., 29, of Lawrence, was charged with aggravated battery and aggravated assault in Douglas County District Court on Tuesday in connection with an alleged domestic violence incident over the weekend. Just after 2 a.m. Saturday, Lawrence police were called to a downtown bar to speak with a woman who said she’d been the victim of domestic violence. The woman told police that Bell threatened to harm himself and her with a knife, barred

The woman eventually broke free from the home, McKinley said, running to the nearby downtown bar “where she knew friends would be.” That’s when police were called. Police found the woman with “numerous visible injuries,” though none was listed as life-threatening, McKinley said. Police went to the apartment to try to find Bell, but were unsuccessful that night. They eventually arrest-

ed and booked him into the Douglas County Jail around 1:15 p.m. Monday. Chief Douglas County District Judge Robert Fairchild on Tuesday set Bell’s bond at $25,000. If he is released, he is banned from contacting the victim. He must also not return to the apartment where the crimes are alleged to have occurred. If convicted, Bell could face up to 34 months in prison for each charge, depending on his criminal history. Bell remained in the Douglas County Jail as of Tuesday evening. Bell is scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 4.

“Due to the limited capacity at the state hospitals and lack of resources in the communities, there has been increasing pressure to discharge patients quickly to make room for more,” the committee said. “Compounding this issue is a continuing challenge with staffing levels due to staff turnover, staff burnout and fatigue.” The committee’s report said the result is an “inadequate safety net” that jeopardizes the wellbeing of the mentally ill and “puts communities at risk, and places an undue burden on local resources, including law enforcement.”

The winner gets bragging rights and a plaque to hang in their restaurant, though all participating chefs will share their recipes from the event online, Stewart says. — This is an excerpt from features reporter Joanna Hlavacek’s Wined and Dined blog.

The committee, composed largely of mental health professionals, law enforcement and the judiciary, was commissioned by the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services. Kansas spends about $100 million to operate the acute care hospitals. The state stopped voluntary admissions to the Osawatomie hospital earlier this year when the facility exceeded its 206-bed capacity by 25 percent. Osawatomie has since been limited to 146 beds while it undergoes a construction project. The report says that Osawatomie should be returned to full capacity as quickly as possible. “The determining factors cannot solely be financial,” the report says. “The risk is too great.”

The first is scheduled for 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. today in the Schwegler Elementary School gym, 2201 Ousdahl Road. A second forum is planned for 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Aug. 24 in the Burge Union. KU holds such forums as part of its land-use agreement with the city of Lawrence. “Public forums like these are a great way to have conversations with residents so we can all understand what KU will look like in the future,” Jim Modig, KU Design and Construction Management director and university architect, said in a recent KU news release. “As we said when we launched the Campus Master Plan in 2014, this is a special opportunity for us to transform the university into a national model and better position ourselves to serve the state and nation.” KU’s Central District is bounded roughly by 19th Street on the south, Iowa Street on the west, 15th Street on the north and the Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center on the east, according to the master plan. Also within it lie the Daisy Hill residence halls, the Burge Union, Allen Fieldhouse and Oliver Hall. The Central District is sandwiched between the North District (the oldest part of campus, including Jayhawk Boulevard and Memorial Stadium) and the West District (everything west of Iowa Street).

The master plan also accounts for infrastructure, power supply, stormwater management and parking, both surface and garage, Monaco said. Funding details have not been finalized, but Monaco said KU is looking to a combination of sources, including philanthropy, business partnerships and public-private partnerships. “We realize we have

to be creative in terms of how we pursue projects like this, and we can’t necessarily count on funding from the state,” Monaco said. “We are pursuing alternative revenue streams.” Some pieces of the Central District plan already are in motion. Central District redevelopment will kick off with groundbreaking for the new Earth, Energy and Environment Center — EEEC for short, it’s an expansion to Lindley Hall — late this summer or early fall, Monaco said. Though EEEC is technically located within the master plan’s North District, it’s just across Naismith Drive and thus considered a bridge to the Central District. Earlier this month, KU presented integrated science buildings to the Kansas Board of Regents as the university’s top budget enhancement request for fiscal year 2017, in hopes of securing state funding for a portion of their construction. The EEEC and proposed science buildings are part of a broader concept called Innovation Way, linking science facilities campuswide to foster interdisciplinary teaching and research, according to the master plan. Stouffer Place closed for good June 30. The 25-building apartment complex, opened in 1957, housed primarily students with families and some international students. McCollum Hall is scheduled to be demolished Nov. 25. Oswald and Self halls — the two new Daisy Hill residence halls replacing McCollum — will open to students this fall — KU reporter Sara Shepherd can be reached at sshepherd@ljworld.com or 832-7187.

The U.S. health care system has scored a medical hat trick, reducing deaths, hospitalizations and costs, a new study shows. Mortality rates among Medicare patients fell 16% from 1999 to 2013. That’s equal to more than 300,000 fewer deaths a year in 2013 than in 1999, said cardiologist Harlan Krumholz, lead author of a new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and a professor at the Yale School of Medicine. “It’s a jaw-dropping finding,” Krumholz said. “We didn’t expect to see such a remarkable improvement over time.” Researchers based the study on records from more than 68 million patients in Medicare, the federal health insurance program for people age 65 and older. Researchers were able to find additional information about hospitalization rates and costs among Medicare’s traditional “fee-for-service” program, in which doctors and hospitals are paid for each procedure or visit. This information wasn’t available for people in the managed-care portion of Medicare, which had about 29% of patients in the overall Medicare program in 2013. Among fee-for-service patients, hospitalization rates fell 24%, with more than 3 million fewer hospitalizations in 2013 than 1999, Krumholz said. When patients were admitted to hospitals, they were 45% less likely to die during their stay; 24% less likely to die within a month; and 22% less likely to die within a year, the study found. Costs for hospitalized patients fell by 15% among fee-for-service patients. Hospitals and staffs get some credit for the improvements, Krumholz said. “There has been tremendous focus on making sure that our hospitals are safer and that treatments are more timely and effective,” he said. A 1999 report from the Institute of Medicine, which found that hospital errors killed up to 98,000 people a year, jump-started a movement to improve health care, said P.J. Brennan, chief medical officer at the University of Pennsylvania Health System. Public health improvements also likely helped, Krumholz said. Though obesity is more prevalent now than in the ’90s, the air is generally cleaner and fewer folks smoke. New drugs for conditions like cancer and heart disease also may be extending lives.

A decade later, Louisiana is still paying for Katrina Paul Singer @singernews USA TODAY

The storm is long gone, but Hurricane Katrina is still a disaster in Louisiana. Katrina made landfall 10 years ago, killing more than 1,800 people along the Gulf Coast and leaving about 80% of New Orleans underwater. The federal government has spent tens of billions of dollars rebuilding communities along the Gulf, but the task is far from over. Louisiana is still uncovering hurricane-related damages that will take years and

hundreds of millions of dollars to repair. Louisiana has doled out about $10 billion in recovery money provided by the federal government for 24,000 reconstruction projects ranging from roads to public buildings and utilities damaged by Katrina and Rita, the massive storm that followed a month later, according to state reports. There remains an additional $2.5 billion in federal assistance set aside for public reconstruction that has not been spent, and thousands of projects remain open. Some projects get bigger as time passes.

New Orleans is undergoing a similar process with its roads. Cedric Grant, director of the city’s sewage and water board, said the city made millions of dollars worth of emergency repairs to roads after the storm, a process that lasted until about 2010. At that point, the city began looking at longer-term damage, a process that “so far has produced $600$700 million of additional work that needs to be done,” and that number “is increasing daily.”

Inclusiveness drive could change Marines’ core Jim Michaels @jimmichaels USA TODAY

Born inauspiciously in a Philadelphia tavern in 1775, the Marine Corps has grown into the country’s pre-eminent 911 force, proving itself in battles from Tripoli to the streets of Fallujah, Iraq. Along the way, the Marines built a legend based on grit and raw courage. It’s what propelled them across the beaches of Iwo Jima and Guadalcanal and through Hue City’s deadly streets in Vietnam. Is the Corps facing a new challenge as America’s culture of inclusiveness seeps into the service and threatens to dilute the warrior ethos that has set it apart from the other services for more than 200 years? Lt. Col. Kate Germano, who headed female recruit training at the Marine Corps’ legendary Parris Island, hopes not. She was fired from her post recently, triggering a debate over whether she was canned for holding her Marines to the same high standards expected of men. She remains in the Marine Corps but has been placed in another job. The debate has surfaced at a critical time. The Marines and the other services have been ordered to begin the process of in-

cluding women in the infantry and other physically demanding jobs by the end of this year. The Marine Corps said that as a leader, Germano had created a toxic environment, alienating her subordinates with her leadership style. She also persistently questioned the Marines’ approach to training women, suggesting the Corps was too willing to make allowances for females. The top officers have pledged that standards will not drop as the changes are made. “I promise you that the one thing we will not compromise on is standards,” Gen. Martin Dempsey told a group of U.S. servicemembers in Baghdad recently. Perhaps not surprising, it is women already in the service who are most worried about standards slipping. I get that. I served in the Marine Corps more than 30 years ago. Then, as now, men and women were attracted to the Marine Corps to test themselves. No one wants to see the bar lowered. Germano refused to accept that women couldn’t shoot as well as men and took steps to boost their scores on the rifle range. Women had historically scored low, and Germano said she believed the brass just assumed females couldn’t shoot as well as men. She proved them wrong. Under her command, scores increased to a 91% qualification rate from historic levels of less than 70%. At Parris Island, she noticed that a row of chairs was placed

The Marines, particularly the infantry, are proud of their nofrills culture. The Army can have fancy dining facilities. The Marines pride themselves on chowing on field rations and sleeping in the mud. Being called a knuckle dragger is a compliment in the Marine Corps. The other services may be defined by their equipment and their mission. What sets the Marines apart is something harder to quantify: esprit de corps, a warrior spirit drilled into every recruit before he or she graduates from boot camp.

Report projects spending to grow faster Rate of increase over next decade to be less than pre-recession Laura Ungar USA TODAY

U.S. health spending is expected to grow faster over the next decade than in recent years, reflecting a stronger economy, an aging population and higher levels of insurance coverage through the Affordable Care Act, a new federal report says. The projections follow “six years of national spending growth hovering near historically low rates,” says Sean Keehan, an economist at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services who led the study, which was published in the online version of the journal Health Affairs on Tuesday. Still, Keehan adds, “these projected growth rates are significantly lower than those observed over the three decades prior to the recent recession.” The study projects U.S. health spending growth will average 5.8% for 2014-24, far less than the average of about 9% over those pre-recession decades. Growth averaged a low 4% a year from 2008-13.

JOE RAEDLE, GETTY IMAGES

Even as more Americans are covered, growth in overall health spending is modest, says a new federal report that also notes spending will surpass growth in the gross domestic product. Overall, health spending is expected to rise to $5.4 trillion by 2024, surpassing growth in the gross domestic product, which is expected to average 4.7%. That means health spending will account for about a fifth of the U.S. economy in 2024 — 19.6% to be exact, up from 17.4% in 2013. The study also notes: uIn 2014, according to projections, national health spending grew 5.5% to $3.1 trillion, or

$9,695 a person. About 8.4 million Americans gained health coverage last year, the study says, and there was a big increase in prescription drug spending growth, fueled in part by expensive specialty medications for hepatitis C, cancer and multiple sclerosis. uNational health spending is expected to slow slightly to 5.3% in 2015 as the effects of the ACA’s Medicaid expansion moderate following the initial surge, and as

lower costs for specialty drugs are negotiated. Also in 2015, growth rates in private health insurance premiums and benefits are projected to accelerate slightly as more people enroll in plans through Obamacare insurance exchanges. uBy the latter years of the decade, health spending growth rates are projected to rise to an average of 6.2% a year as more Baby Boomers become eligible for

Study: Uninsured rates down, access to care up Post-Obamacare improvement found in health coverage Laura Ungar USAToday

Since the Affordable Care Act took effect, fewer Americans lack health insurance or have trouble getting the care and medicines they need, a study released Tuesday says. The research, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, says the number of Americans who reported being uninsured dropped 7.9 percentage points by the first quarter of this year. Minorities saw the biggest reductions — uninsured rates among Latinos, for example, dropped by 11.9 percentage points. “The ACA may be associated with reductions in long-standing disparities in access to health care,” says Benjamin Sommers of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, who led the study while an adviser to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Sommers and his colleagues analyzed 2012-15 results of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, a national telephone survey, and examined changes among 507,055 U.S. adults ages 18-64. Pre-ACA was defined as January 2012-September 2013, post-ACA as January 2014-March 2015. “By the first quarter of 2015, the adjusted proportion of adults who were uninsured decreased by 7.9 percentage points; which, based on Census estimates, is equivalent to 15.8 million adults gaining coverage,” Sommers says. The study found improvements in other measures of

health care access — a 3.5-percentage-point drop in those saying they had no personal physician; a 2.4-percentage-point drop in those reporting “no easy access to medicine” and a 5.5percentage-point drop in those saying they couldn’t afford care. Researchers note that the design of the study makes it impossible to know whether these changes are solely and directly related to the ACA. Although they controlled for factors such as income and state unemployment rates, they acknowledge the economic recovery may have played a part in improvements. Avik Roy, a health care policy expert with the free market Manhattan Institute, says the economy is a very significant factor. “As more people go back to work, you’re going to see a reduction in the uninsured rate,” he says. “The route to the best quality health coverage is through a job that offers health coverage.” Sommers and his colleagues also looked at how the ACA affected low-income residents in states that did and didn’t expanded Medicaid. They found that people in expansion states fared better.

Medicare and the Medicaid population ages. About 19.1 million more people are expected to enroll in Medicare over the next 11 years. These trends don’t just affect the overall economy; they also hit consumers’ pocketbooks. Hospital price growth decelerated to 1.4% in 2014, the slowest rate since 1998. Growth in the cost of doctors’ and clinical services is expected to remain near historically low rates through the early part of the decade, but eventually go back to average rates. The study’s authors say the trend toward high-deductible health plans is expected to tamp down growth in spending on medical services. When people have to pay more out-of-pocket for their own care, experts say they tend to choose less — and less expensive — care when possible. “Growth in overall health spending remains modest even as more Americans are covered, many for the first time. Per-capita spending and medical inflation are all at historically very modest levels,” says Andy Slavitt, CMS acting administrator. He added. “The task ahead for all of us is to keep people healthier while spending smarter across all categories of care delivery so that we can sustain these results.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

SPY JONATHAN POLLARD GETTING PAROLE

Arrested in 1985, ex-Navy analyst set for Nov. 21 release David Jackson and Kevin Johnson USA TODAY

Convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard, imprisoned for nearly three decades, will be paroled Nov. 21, officials said Tuesday. Pollard, 61, was granted parole by a 3-0 vote Tuesday by the U.S. Parole Commission. Eliot Lauer, one of Pollard’s lawyers, said he was informed of the panel’s decision Tuesday afternoon. “We are very, very grateful,” Lauer said. Lauer said he expects Pollard WASHINGTON

to be freed Nov. 20 because releases are usually done on Fridays, since the date of the spy’s actual release is a Saturday. The attorney also said he may ask President Obama to expedite the release via clemency. “We have not made the application, but this is definitely something we would consider,” Lauer said. “I would hope that the president would do it on his own. “Is there really any purpose for him staying in jail for another four months?” Lauer said. Over the years, members of the defense and intelligence communities have strongly opposed Pollard’s release. Former Defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld tweeted Tuesday that “releasing Pollard was a bad idea in 1998 & 2001. It is not a better idea today.” Justice Department spokes-

Jonathan Pollard, a U.S. Navy Investigative Service analyst, was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to selling classified information to Israel.

man Marc Raimondi said the department “has always maintained that Pollard should serve his full sentence for the serious crimes he committed.” The full sentence, as mandated by law, ends Nov. 21, Raimondi said. Under federal guidelines at the time of Pollard’s case, a person serving a life sentence is eligible for mandatory parole after 30

years unless the Parole Commission “determines that he has seriously or frequently violated institution rules or that there is a reasonable probability that he will commit any Federal, State, or local crime.” U.S. officials have indicated that they would not challenge Pollard’s release by asserting those provisions. Pollard, a U.S. Navy Investigative Service analyst convicted of spying for Israel, was sentenced to life in prison following his 1985 arrest. Pollard pleaded guilty to selling classified information to Israel. Pollard’s imminent release comes amid friction between the Obama administration and Israel over the Iran nuclear agreement and other issues. Administration officials, however, said the release is not a diplomatic one. INVESTIGATION

Fast-growing Ethiopia says it could stand an Obama boost American president witnesses nation’s economic progress during 3-day visit to capital

Special for USA TODAY ABABA , ETHIOPIA As weavers in the Shiro Meda textile market work busily at their traditional looms, this ancient city is changing fast around them. “Ethiopia is growing,” said Vana Tenkir, 42, an Internet café owner who said the market today would be unrecognizable to visitors from 10 years ago. “New buildings are coming up and locals are investing.” President Obama’s presence in Ethiopia is a sign that the country is putting the famines and wars of the past few decades behind them, said Sammy Ogali, the assistant chairman in charge of the market. Even so, the country needs a boost, he adds. “This is one of the busiest markets in the country,” said Ogali. “We hope the (African Union) meeting being chaired by President Obama will yield fruit and allow more investors to come. We need tourists who can buy our local products.” ADDIS

Obama ended his three-day visit to the Ethiopian capital with a speech Tuesday at the headquarters of the African Union in which he denounced terrorism and called for African leaders to prioritize job creation. He also said the leaders should uphold democratic freedoms and fight corruption. “Africa will need to generate millions more jobs than it is doing now,” Obama said in the televised speech. “And time is of the essence.” The continent’s population is forecast to double to around 2 billion people within decades. Obama toured the local food processing giant Faffa Food, an example of entrepreneurial success. His visit came as the country posted around 10% annual growth in its gross domestic product in recent years. On Tuesday, the American-Icelandic company Corbetti Geothermal Power announced it has a deal with the Ethiopian government to purchase energy from a $4 billion geothermal plant under construction. The project, slated

to generate electricity from heat deep underground in 2018, is the latest example of expanding U.S. trade with the country. American exports to Ethiopia increased from $688 million in 2013 to $1.73 billion last year, with aircraft sales causing the increase, according to the U.S. International Trade Administration. Before boarding Air Force One, Obama stopped to examine “Africa First,” the inaugural Dreamliner aircraft that U.S.-based Boeing delivered to Ethiopian Airlines. The 787 is valued as much as $1.3 billion. China is still Ethiopia’s largest trading partner, often financing infrastructure projects like train lines to help the country export resources to China. Many Ethiopians haven’t experienced the full benefit of the country’s growth, said Assefa Admassie, a researcher at the Ethiopian Economics Association in Addis Ababa. “There definitely has been progress on all these issues but the accumulated problem is quite huge,” he said.

“Africa will need to generate millions more jobs than it is doing now.” President Obama

WASHINGTON Federal laboratories working with bioterror pathogens are “the leading offenders” and have repeatedly been referred for sanctions because of serious safety violations, according to documents released Tuesday at a hearing on lab safety. “What we have here is a pattern of recurring issues, of complacency and a lax culture of safety,” said Rep. Tim Murphy, RPa., who chaired the hearing before the investigations subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Among the labs with multiple referrals for enforcement actions is the U.S. Army’s Dugway Proving Ground facility in Utah, which is at the center of an international scandal over its inadvertent shipment of live anthrax specimens for years. Dugway’s labs faced sanctions in 2007 for other failures to inactivate anthrax specimens, USA TODAY reported in June. Tuesday’s hearing revealed that Dugway faced sanctions again in 2011 for three unauthorized shipments of Botulinum neurotoxin. In both cases, regulators issued violation letters to Dugway instructing the facility to examine its practices, said Gregory Demske, chief counsel for the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG), which enforces lab regulations for inspectors at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “As a federal entity, Dugway presents an enforcement challenge,” Demske told the committee. On Monday, the OIG received a third referral for enforcement action about Dugway, he said, and it’s under review. Rep. Diana DeGette of Colorado, the subcommittee’s ranking Democrat, said labs have been lucky that nobody has been sickened in recent mishaps: “I think we’re just going on borrowed time here.”

IN BRIEF SEAMSTRESS WHO AIDED ESCAPEES PLEADS GUILTY

Tuesday afternoon, Jack Dorsey, in a hoodie and a beard, spoke to Wall Street for the first time. His remarks came during the company’s quarterly earnings call with analysts, his first since returning to Twitter as interim CEO. Before the call ended, Twitter’s shares plunged on straight talk from Dorsey and Twitter Chief Financial Officer Anthony Noto: Twitter is facing a dramatic turnaround that is going to take “considerable” time before the company sees any “sustained” growth. Twitter’s central challenge: To reverse sluggish growth by making Twitter far more appealing to the mainstream. “We don’t expect to see sustained, meaningful growth (in monthly active users) until we reach the mass market,” Noto said. “We expect it to take a considerable period of time.” Twitter executives placed the blame for Twitter’s predicament on both problems with the product and with how it’s marketed. And they pledged to change both. “The product remains too difficult to use,” Noto said. And Dorsey pledged to tackle that challenge head on. “We continue to show a questioning of our fundamentals in order to make the product easier and more compelling to more people,” Dorsey said.

Twitter reported $502 million in second-quarter revenue and adjusted earnings of 7 cents a share; both surpassed forecasts. Wall Street had expected Twitter (TWTR) to report $481.3 million in revenue. The forecast was in line with the company’s guidance of $470 million to $485 million. Consensus was for adjusted earnings of 4 cents a share, up from 2 cents a share a year ago. Including the omitted expenses, the company was expected to post a loss of 27 cents a share, according to Thomson Reuters. The 61% jump in revenue suggests Twitter’s advertising business has pushed past last quarter’s unexpected shortfall. Still, there is no getting around the fact it ranks as Twitter’s smallest quarterly revenue growth as a publicly traded company. Twitter has also yet to turn a profit. It posted a loss of $136.7 million, or 21 cents a share. That compares to a yearago loss of $144.6 million, or 24 cents a share. Right before Twitter released its second-quarter earnings, two executives announced their departures from the company on Twitter. Todd Jackson said he would be joining Dropbox as head of product. Christian Oestline, vice president of product management, is joining YouTube.

The Chinese stock implosion is starting to get serious. It’s costing U.S. investors real money. The 144 China-based stocks with primary listings on major U.S. exchanges have erased more than $56 billion in paper wealth since the Shanghai Composite index peaked on June 12. That’s an enormous destruction of wealth that in effect wipes out the market value of a company the size of U.S. technology firm Hewlett-Packard. And the Shanghai composite index’s losses are getting worse. The much-watched measure of Chinese stocks fell 8.5% in overnight trading Monday and another 1.7% Tuesday. The index has dropped more than 27% since hitting its year’s peak on June 12. Some of the stock-specific shredding of value is getting noteworthy. Chinese e-commerce stock Alibaba looks like the biggest destroyer of U.S. investor wealth. The stock is down only 7.5% since June 12 — but given its enormous market value, investors have lost $11.7 billion on the stock during the downturn. The company still has a market value of $204.5 billion.

Also making U.S. investors feel the pain is JD.com, another online retailer based in China. This stock is down 15.4% since the Shanghai’s peak; given the company’s large size, it’s handing investors a $7.9 billion paper loss. Watching Chinese stocks go from a point of riches to a point of pain is quite the reversal for U.S. investors. The Vanguard Emerging Markets exchangetraded fund, which owns stakes in Chinese stocks, soared in late 2007 as it looked like the emerging nations were where the growth would be. Once again, the crowd is wrong. And the stampede out proves to be painful. But don’t think if you didn’t own any of these Chinese stocks directly that you’re safe from the Chinese stock meltdown. Investors over the years have accumulated exposure to China through China-focused exchange-traded funds as well as emerging markets ETFs. The pain in China is spreading into these corners of the market — which financial advisors tell most investors to have at least some exposure to.

Fed unlikely to tip its hand on coming rate hike Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY

The Federal Reserve may be as little as seven weeks from its first interest rate hike in nearly a decade, but economists don’t expect it to signal its intentions Wednesday after a two-day meeting. “We wouldn’t expect any heavy hints ... that a September rate hike is coming,” economist Paul Ashworth of Capital Economics wrote in a note to clients. Fed Chair Janet Yellen has stressed that Fed policymakers will decide when to increase its

benchmark rate on a meeting-bymeeting basis in response to the most recent economic data. Yellen told Congress this month that she expects the Fed to make the move later this year. Fed officials have indicated there’s virtually no chance they’ll bump up rates at this week’s meeting. About 80% of economists surveyed by the Wall Street Journal this month expected rate liftoff in September. In March, the Fed removed from its post-meeting statement a pledge to remain “patient” as it considers launching a gradual increase in a federal funds rate that has been near zero since the 2008

DREW ANGERER, BLOOMBERG

Janet Yellen says the Fed likely will raise rates later this year.

financial crisis. That meant Fed policymakers could act as early as June. Yet they held off amid the

Greek financial crisis and inflation that continued to run well below the Fed’s annual 2% target. Since then, Greece has tentatively reached a three-year bailout deal with its eurozone creditors, and some measures of inflation have ticked up. Analysts estimate the economy rebounded solidly in the second quarter after contracting early in the year. A higher fed funds rate would nudge up borrowing costs and bank saving rates and could drive money to fixed-income assets, potentially rattling stocks. The Fed occasionally has foreshadowed an imminent rate increase. In May 2004, as it

prepared to begin a rate-hike cycle following the 2001 recession, the Fed dropped a vow to be patient in its post-meeting statement and said it can raise rates at a “measured” pace. It hoisted the fed funds rate the next month. Yet “a deluge” of data is slated to be released before the Fed’s Sept. 16-17 meeting, including two inflation and two jobs reports, giving policymakers little incentive to prematurely box themselves in, says Michael Feroli of J.P. Morgan Chase. A more upbeat Fed economic outlook in its statement Wednesday at least could leave the door open to a September hike.

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

Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen has said it. And Wall Street pros agree: The thing to watch is not when the Fed hikes interest rates for the first time since 2006, but rather how aggressive the pace of rate increases will be once the tightening cycle begins. When the Fed ends its two-day meeting Wednesday, Wall Street will be combing through the Fed’s policy statement for clues as to when the rate “liftoff” will begin. The general thinking on Wall Street is the Fed will move later this year, perhaps as soon as September. In testimony to Congress this month, Fed chair Janet Yellen reiterated the economy and labor market are strong enough to warrant rate increases this

year. The question is what financial markets have priced in? Is a September rate hike already in the market? What about hints from the Fed that it is leaning toward a more robust tightening cycle, which would mark a major change from their emphasis on a deliberate pace of hikes? “I think the markets are prepared for a rate hike since the Fed has been pretty transparent about its intent,” says Bill Hornbarger, chief investment strategist at Moneta Group. “The big question facing the market is how aggressive the Fed will be. If (Yellen) indicates the Fed will be anything but methodical and patient, it could spook the markets. (Investors) are still pricing in a very patient Fed with a rate only at 1% a year out (vs. about 0% now). If rates move faster than that, you (will) see more volatility.”

Investors cast a wary eye to future tweets

Q: Is Twitter an Internet bargain? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Twitter stock is down from its highs. But that doesn’t mean it’s cheap. Shares of the online service for short messages closed Tuesday at $36.54, a third of their value from their highest point in the past year. Twitter’s stock is less pricey than the best-in-breed social media stock: Facebook. Twitter trades for 15 times its revenue over the past 12 months. That’s a discount to the nearly 20 times price-to-revenue at Facebook. But you get what you pay for. Facebook has posted net income of $2.8 billion over the past 12 months. Twitter, through the just reported second quarter, posted a loss of $600 million. Investors will parse through Twitter’s second-quarter results to assess if the company can grow and monetize its existing user base. Analysts aren’t bullish on Twitter, rating it “hold” on average, S&P Capital IQ says. But some still see value there — the average 18-month price target on Twitter is $44.47 a share. If that’s correct, the stock has 25% potential upside from Tuesday’s close. Shares jumped to $38.61 late Tuesday after the company beat profit forecasts. Even so, this company is still built on hope — not fundamentals. New Constructs, which analyzes stocks based on their expected cash flow, rates Twitter “Very Dangerous.”

Increases in home prices are settling down, report finds Anita Balakrishnan USA TODAY

Home-price increases may be leveling out, according to one closely followed real estate report. In 20 major American cities, home prices this May were about 4.9% higher than May of last year, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index, released Tuesday. That’s the same pace of growth as April, and it surprised economists when it fell short of expected growth. Economists predicted a 5.6%

year-over-year increase, according to an Econoday survey. Price increases of single-family homes have settled at a steady

pace of 4% to 5% this year, said David Blitzer, managing director and chairman of the Index Committee at S&P Dow Jones Indices. He said he expects price increases to slow over the next two years, as wages rise to catch up with housing costs. “First-time homebuyers are the weak spot in the market,” said Blitzer, citing research that high down payments may be putting off first-time home purchases. “Without a boost in first-timers, there is less housing market activity, fewer existing homes being put on the market and more worry about inventory.”

Overall, 10 of the 20 cities surveyed saw housing price increases slow on a seasonally adjusted basis. Some real estate markets remain hot, however. Home prices in Denver are 10% higher than this time last year, and San Francisco and Dallas are also seeing prices increase at almost twice the national pace. New York City and Phoenix have seen prices rise for six consecutive months. Between April and May, the index slowed 0.2% on a monthly, seasonally adjusted basis. An analyst at Barclays said they were not inclined to “read

too much” into the decline. “This could be a pause for breath in the data after a strong performance for half a year,” wrote Blerina Uruçi in a research note. The Case-Shiller index measures only the resale prices of existing single-family homes. A separate report last week showed median sales prices of existing homes hitting a record high, increasing 6.5% year-overyear to $236,400, the National Association of Realtors said. But condos led that increase, while single-family home sales increased just 2.8%.

SNEAK PEEK THE 33

MIRACLE MINE RESCUE

Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY

Antonio Banderas recalls being swept up in the euphoria when 33 Chilean miners were saved after being trapped underground for 69 days in a massive mine collapse. A worldwide audience monitored every development in the 2010 rescue, with full coverage on CNN as Pope Benedict XVI joined the prayers. President Obama called the miners’ improbable emergence a “thrilling moment,” and it was witnessed live by an estimated 1 billion people. So when Banderas was asked to star in a film about the miners, known simply as “The 33,” he wondered what direction the story would take. “We all know the beginning and we know the end of this story,” Banderas says. “We tried to put a magnifying glass on human behavior that comes out in situations like this, when death is right in front of you.” The 33 (opens Nov. 13, with the U.S. trailer out Wednesday), stars Banderas as the mine leader “Super” Mario Sepúlveda and shines a light on what happened 2,300 feet underground with the men seemingly hopelessly trapped. For 17 days, there was no word from the miners, who strictly rationed their three days of emergency food and kept their spirits up in the face of growing hopelessness. Banderas dropped weight during the film shoot to mirror Sepúlveda’s own weight loss below ground. The 54-yearold actor also welcomed signs of fatigue from the shoot to better look the part. “When I saw in the mirror that my tummy was very reduced and the bags really growing under my eyes, I thought that I could pull this off,” Banderas says. When rescuers were able to drill to the miners to allow communication and supplies, the mining crew found they had turned into celebrities during the prolonged international effort to free them. “Many things started happening: book deals, rights for telling this story for money,” Banderas says. “They had to make peace to get out of there united.” Director Patricia Riggen says the miners “completely understood” why the tales of 33 were condensed into 10 major characters onscreen. “We had to com-

press all that happened to them in an hour and a half,” she says. “They think it was very fair to what they lived.” Ultimately, the story told deals with 33 men having their humanity tested below ground while the world came together to save them aboveground. “It shows what human beings can accomplish when we work together,” she says. “That’s why this touched everyone.”

The stories of all of the miners were compressed into those of 10 major characters for the film.

You should hear how Marlon Brando tells it. In the new documentary Listen to Me Marlon, audiences will have a chance to hear from the legendary actor’s own lips, thanks to director Stevan Riley. “My pitch (to make the film) was Brando on Brando,” says Riley, who was given access to more than 300 hours of Brando’s private audio tapes, including his self-hypnosis. Until his death in 2004 at age 80, Brando had focused on recording thoughts on his life, in hopes of shaping his official biography. In Listen to Me Marlon, which directs the audience to hear Brando’s side of the story, “I thought it would be amazing to tell it entirely in his own voice, especially because he was so private,” Riley says. The documentary — which opens in select theaters Wednesday in New York and Friday in

Marlon Brando, photographed with daughter Cheyenne, recorded more than 300 hours of private audio tapes. Los Angeles, followed by its debut on Showtime later this year — begins in Brando’s tough childhood before diving into the ebb and flow of his remarkable career. “It was a Freudian study,” Riley says. “He was in psychotherapy most of his life.” Of course, many of Brando’s iconic roles are highlighted, in-

become so tarnished that studio executives made him audition. “He really was desperate in a way for a part,” says Riley, noting that Brando was paid only $50,000. “It was humiliating for him, but he knew he wasn’t calling the shots at that point.” His family life was marked by tragedy, particularly when his son Christian shot his sister’s boyfriend to death in 1990; he went to prison and later died of pneumonia. Brando’s daughter Cheyenne lost custody of her baby and killed herself in 1995. By the time the documentary reaches 1972’s Last Tango in Paris, the reclusive actor is resenting giving a far-too-autobiographical performance in the film, which sees him battling issues with women and self-loathing. “I realized, you know, you’re naked, Marlon,” Brando says in a tape. Ultimately, Listen to Me Marlon is “a human story,” says Riley, calling Brando the prototype of the modern-day celebrity. “The fascination with Brando and the hysteria preceded any icon of the 20th century.”

LOS ANGELES ANGELS OF ANAHEIM

IOC wants U.S. to find a new city Embarrassing as the debacle in Boston may have been, chances are it will be nothing more than a distant memory when the vote for the 2024 Olympics finally rolls around. That’s still more than two years away, and the U.S. Olympic Committee has seven weeks to replace Boston with a more willing candidate — one that shows more enthusiasm for hosting the games, and can withstand the criticism and questions that will invariably come in a contest against Paris, Rome, Budapest and others. Odds are that city would be Los Angeles, where Mayor Eric Garcetti has already expressed a willingness to listen if the USOC does call. San Francisco and Washington were also on the short list of the USOC’s group of domestic candidates. “We live in an age where people have pretty short memories,” said Chuck Wielgus, the executive director of USA Swimming. “I think there’s a great desire among people within international sport to see the Olympics come back to the U.S.” Putting a U.S. city in play still seemed like a popular idea among those gathered in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where international Olympic leaders were meeting to vote on where to hold the 2022 Winter Games. Because the official deadline to enter a city for the 2024 Games isn’t until Sept. 15, the news about Boston wasn’t taken as a sign the U.S. was out of the game. “We always would welcome a bid from the States. It’s been a long time since they had a good candidate,” said IOC executive board member Juan Antonio Samaranch Jr., of Spain. The last two candidates have faltered under the weight of their own missteps, combined with the USOC’s sometimestoxic relationship with the IOC. New York finished fourth out of five finalists for the 2012 Olympics. Chicago was last in the running for 2016.

New York (AP) — Calling the appeal process “a sham,” Tom Brady’s agent says NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell “failed to ensure a fair process” in upholding the quarterback’s four-game suspension. Don Yee says Tuesday that Brady’s side was given only four hours to present a defense, and when he asked for documents from investigator Ted Wells, that request was rejected on the basis of privilege. Yee says in a statement, “We therefore had no idea as to what Wells found from other witnesses, nor did we know what those other witnesses said.” Yee adds the electronic data presented in Brady’s defense was ignored during the appeal hearing. Brady was suspended for his role in using underinflated footballs during the AFC championship win over Indianapolis. Goodell says in his decision that Brady told an assistant to destroy his cellphone on or just before March 6, the day Brady met with Wells. The league announced the decision Tuesday, with Goodell saying that the New England quarterback told an assistant to destroy Brady’s cellphone on or just before March 6. Brady met with independent investigator Ted Wells on that day. “He did so even though he was aware that the investigators had requested access to text messages and other electronic information that had been stored on that phone,” Goodell said in his decision. “During the four months that the cellphone was in use, Brady had exchanged nearly 10,000

COLORADO HAS TRADED TROY TULOWITZKI, SHOWN HERE BATTING AGAINST TEXAS on July 22, to Toronto. The six-player trade amounted to a swap of shortstops, as the Blue Jays sent Jose Reyes to the Rockies.

Rockies, Blue Jays swap shortstops Denver — The Colorado Rockies and Toronto Blue Jays have swapped star shortstops. The teams confirmed the blockbuster trade Tuesday that sends Jose Reyes and righthanded pitchers Miguel Castro, Jeff Hoffman and Jesus Tinoco to the Rockies for Troy Tulowitzki and right-handed reliever LaTroy Hawkins. Both shortstops have remarkably similar career statistics but also a history of injuries. Tulowitzki is a five-time All-Star and a career .299 hitter. He’s hitting .300 this season. At 32, the speedy Reyes is two years older than Tulowitzki. He’s a lifetime .291 hitter and is hitting .285 this season. Reyes, a four-time All-Star, is signed through 2017 on a $106 million, six-year contract he received from Miami. Before the 2011 season, Colorado made a big commitment to Tulowitzki by agreeing to a contract that guaranteed him $132 million over seven seasons from 2014-20. The deal included a $14 million team option for 2021 with a $4 million buyout. Combined with his previous deal, it meant the Rockies agreed to pay Tulowitzki $157.75 million over 10 years. The plan was to build around him and outfielder Carlos Gonzalez, who signed an $80 million, seven-year contract about the same time. But the plan never panned out. The two sluggers often weren’t in the lineup together.

Berry cleared to practice St. Joseph, Mo. — Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry has been cleared by the Kansas City Chiefs’ medical staff and his doctors to return to the practice field after undergoing treatment for lymphoma. The Chiefs said in a brief statement late Tuesday that Berry would join quarterbacks, rookies and injured players in the first day of training camp Wednesday at Missouri Western. Berry was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease last December, shortly after complaining of pain in his chest following a game against Oakland. He was treated at Emory University in Atlanta and went through the final round of it in June. Berry underwent a battery of tests Tuesday. He was cleared to take the field late in the day.

Chiefs’ Poe sidelined after back surgery St. Joseph, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Chiefs are facing a potentially devastating loss on defense, even though training camp doesn’t begin for veterans until this weekend. Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dontari Poe will miss camp and likely part of the season after undergoing surgery last week on a herniated disc. The injury initially occurred during the Chiefs’ voluntary offseason program, but Poe aggravated it during a workout at home on July 8. Poe had surgery to remove the disc on July 15. “He’s not doing a whole lot of rehab or treatment. He’s just

resting,” Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said Tuesday as rookies and select veterans reported to training camp at Missouri Western. “I’ve told the coaches we won’t talk about any more activity with Dontari until we get out of training camp.” Poe is expected to report with the rest of veterans Friday, but he will spend his time with Burkholder and the training staff rather than on the practice field. Coach Andy Reid said Jaye Howard will be first in line for repetitions, but veteran Mike DeVito and sixth-round pick Rakeem Nunez-Roches could compete for time.

Asked whether he expects Poe back for the season opener Sept. 13 at Houston, Reid replied: “I think he stands a reasonable chance the early part of the season, whether it’s the beginning or somewhere early in the season for his return. You just have to see, see how he recovers. “It’s a positive thing,” Reid insisted, “and it’s something he needed to get done, as opposed to have that other deal antagonize him throughout the season.” The two-time Pro Bowl selection is coming off arguably the best season of his three-year career. Poe had six sacks despite facing constant double

Cleveland (ap) — Eric Hosmer pointed at his teammates celebrating wildly in the dugout and continued his trot around the bases. With one swing, Hosmer gave the Royals another thrilling moment in a season getting better by the second. Hosmer’s homer with two outs in the ninth inning off Trevor Bauer lifted Kansas City to a 2-1 victory on Tuesday night over the fading Cleveland Indians, who have lost eight straight at home — their longest home losing streak in 40 years. Hosmer hit a 3-2 curveball from Bauer (8-8) over the wall in right for his 11th homer, a shot that helped push the Royals 23 games over .500 for the first time since 1989. “It’s real exciting,” said Hosmer, batting .422 with five homers and 19 RBIs against the Indians this season. “It’s the final push for the second half. We’re trying to win these ballgames. We realize these games in the division are important, especially one that close late in the game. “It’s a big win for us.” The Indians, meanwhile, are bottoming out. They’ve lost six straight and eight in a row at home for the first time since

event: “You have storied programs and programs that are right on the verge of doing something great. When I studied the bracket, I really pointed out what a great field it was. We’ll play Chaminade, which is not a ‘gimme game’ by any stretch, in the first round. I’m sure we’ll be talking to our players about Virginia (top-ranked team lost to Chaminade in 1982) many years ago before we play. Then the second-round matchup, we’re either going to play UCLA or UNLV. UNLV gave us all we wanted last year in the fieldhouse (in KU’s 76-61 win) and UCLA has been to backto-back Sweet 16s, so it’s good. I know our guys are looking forward to it.” l Giant killers: NCAA Div. II Chaminade has won seven games in the 31-year history of the event. Chaminade beat Texas in 2012 and Oklahoma in 2010. “I talk with Dave Odom (tourney chair) throughout the year and for four years now I’ve said, ‘Hey, why don’t you match us up against’ ... and I’ll list two or three teams,” said fifth-year Chaminade coach Eric Bovaird. “This year I only listed one team.

of the injury make any return uncertain. “He’ll have extensive rehab and treatment,” Burkholder acknowledged. The news put a damper on what has been an upbeat offseason for the Chiefs. After barely missing the playoffs a year ago, they upgraded their offense by signing wide receiver Jeremy Maclin in free agency. They also return Pro Bowl linebacker Derrick Johnson from a season-ending injury, and signed All-Pro linebacker Justin Houston to new contract. There also have even been positive reports on the status of safety Eric

Berry, who missed much of last season after he was diagnosed with lymphoma. It remains unknown whether Berry will be able to play at all this season, but Reid said Tuesday that he is undergoing more testing this week and that there should be news on his status soon. “He’s kept himself in good shape, believe it or not. He’s done a really good job there. But like I’ve said, he has to go through all the formalities here,” Reid said. If nothing else, the return of Berry to the team — even as an observer — could lift the spirits of a team that could be without Poe for much of the season.

cook dinner for his soonto-be wife. “I kind of booted him out of our apartment,” Zobrist said. “I kind of joked with him about that a little earlier. We’re a long time from that, but it’s kind of a funny story. I knew him way back when.” Zobrist missed a month following arthroscopic left knee surgery in late April for a torn meniscus, but he’s fully healed and eager to help the Royals. A’s general manager

1975, when they played at Cleveland Stadium. Bauer probably deserved a better fate. He held the AL’s top team to one run for 82⁄3 innings before Hosmer reached down and connected on a 75 mph curveball.

“I’ve thrown him one 3-2 curveball this year,” said Bauer, who recorded his first career complete game. “If I walk him, I walk him and get the next guy out, but I’m not going to let a guy who’s hot like that beat me so I tried to bounce it and the ball was going to bounce on the tip of the plate.” Hosmer’s homer came one pitch after Indians catcher Roberto Perez threw out Lorenzo Cain trying to steal second. “Talk about changing emotion with one pitch,” Indians manager Terry Francona said. “That’s just a really good hitter.” Wade Davis (7-1) pitched a perfect eighth and Greg Holland worked the ninth — getting a nifty groundout, and a game-ending double play — for his 22nd save as the Royals won their fourth straight and 16th in 21 games. Perez opened Cleveland’s ninth with a grounder toward center that appeared to be a single. However, second baseman Omar Infante ran it down on the grass and flipped the ball with his glove to shortstop Alcides Escobar, who grabbed it barehanded and threw out Perez. “That was incredible,”

Hosmer said. “Those guys up the middle never seem to surprise us with the plays they make.” The Royals seem to have found the winning formula: Keep it close, turn it over to their bullpen and score one more run than the opposition. “The feeling is if we’re tied or with the lead after the fifth inning we stand a great chance of winning with our bullpen,” manager Ned Yost said. “For the most part they’re going to hold them right there until we can find a way to scratch a run across.” Both teams made trades Tuesday in advance of Friday’s deadline. The Royals made their second major move, acquiring utilityman Ben Zobrist and nearly $2.6 million from Oakland for right-hander Aaron Brooks and minor league left-hander Sean Manaea. On Sunday, Kansas City landed ace Johnny Cueto, who joined his new teammates for the first time Tuesday and will make his debut Friday in Toronto. The Indians shipped veteran outfielder David Murphy to the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for minor league shortstop Eric Statmets.

Billy Beane pulled off his second trade in 24 hours and third in six days. Oakland dealt closer Tyler Clippard to the New York Mets on Monday after trading lefty Scott Kazmir to his hometown Houston Astros last Thursday. Oakland is sending Kansas City $2,598,306 as part of the trade. With Kansas City, Zobrist can fill a void in left field and play some second base. Gold Glove left fielder Alex Gordon is likely sidelined until at least late September after straining his groin tracking a fly ball just before the break. Jarrod

Dyson and Paulo Orlando were platooning at the position, but Moore sought an upgrade until Gordon’s return. Having Zobrist available to play so many spots also will give Yost an opportunity to rotate players and rest others down the stretch to keep everybody healthy and fresh for what the Royals hope is another World Series run. “He’s going to be great for us,” Yost said. “He’s a tremendous switchhitter. He’s a really good run producer from both sides of the batter’s box. He can play multiple positions. He gives us

a lot of versatility. He’s definitely got a winner’s mentality.” Brooks had a 6.23 ERA over two appearances for the Royals and 41⁄3 innings. He has mostly pitched at Triple-A Omaha, going 6-5 with a 3.71 ERA in 18 games and 17 starts. Beane envisions him joining the A’s soon to help fill voids because of injuries. Manaea, a top prospect, has pitched in rookie ball, Class-A and Double-A so far this season. The A’s have been reloading their farm system ahead of Friday’s trade deadline.

SCOREBOARD Baseball Syndergaard blanks Padres MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

National League Mets 4, Padres 0 New York — Noah Syndergaard retired his first 18 batters in the rookie’s latest overpowering performance, and New York got two-run homers from Lucas Duda and Curtis Granderson to beat San Diego Tuesday night. Firing his fastball up to 98 mph, Syndergaard (5-5) struck out nine, walked none and allowed only three singles in eight innings. The big righthander outpitched James Shields and avenged a 7-2 loss at San Diego on June 2. Making his 14th major league start, Syndergaard lost his bid for a perfect game when Will Venable lined a clean single up the middle on the first pitch of the seventh, prompting a warm ovation from the Citi Field crowd of 26,034.

KANSAS CITY, MO - The Kansas City District, US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) for dredging activities on the Kansas River. The EIS will analyze proposed work requested by five commercial sand and gravel producers to extract these materials from the Kansas River by hydraulic suction dredging methods. The proposed dredging will occur within portions of the river between the mouth of the Kansas River and river mile 170 at the confluence of the Kansas, Republican and Smoky Hill Rivers. Department of the Army authorization under Section 10 of the River and Harbors Act is required for the work to obtain sand and gravel materials from the Kansas River. The permit applicants include the following four currently authorized dredgers: Holliday Sand and Gravel Company, LLC, (Lenexa, Kansas); Masters Dredging, (Lawrence, Kansas); Kaw Valley Companies, Inc. (Kansas City, Kansas); and Builders Choice Aggregates, (Topeka, Kansas). One permit applicant not currently authorized to dredge but seeking a permit is LBB, LLC (Topeka, Kansas). The final EIS would also apply to future applications for similar dredging operations on the Kansas River. The USACE has documented degradation or down-cutting of the river bed in some areas where dredging activity has been concentrated. Bed degradation may affect water intake structures, initiate tributary head cuts, promote bank erosion or levee instability, undermine pipelines and bridge piers, increase encroachment of the high bank, affect aquatic habitat, and create navigation hazards. Preparation of the EIS The USACE is the lead federal agency responsible for

He rationalized it by claiming that as long as his wife knew nothing about it, he wasn’t hurting her. I told this to my wife and asked whether we should tell her sister, but she said not to. Over the next several years, their marriage seemed strained, and after 30 years together, they finally split up. I never pulled those kinds of shenanigans, and my wife and I happily celebrated our 60th anniversary recently. I have always wondered, though, whether we did the right thing by not telling her sister 58 years ago. Perhaps if we had, she might have left him then and her whole

life could have changed for the better. What is your opinion? — E.C. Dear E.C.: This question comes up a lot in our column. Sixty years ago, the threat of contracting herpes or HIV wasn’t an issue. And unlike other sexually transmitted diseases, these are not curable. They require long-term treatment and monitoring. These diseases changed the landscape when it came to telling someone about an affair

‘Unplugged Nation’ gets away from it Can one be too connected these days? Many worry about a digital divide where some people have access to fast broadband Internet while others don’t; where many use smartphones at home, school and work, while others live in areas with spotty cell service or none at all. Some say that a social stigma is now attached to those with slower connection speeds, or even no connection. In a commercial for a telecommunications company currently in heavy rotation, “Parks and Recreation” star Rashida Jones has a movienight dinner party with a friend that’s interrupted by the slow download of their movie. Jones humors her friend’s buffering problem for a moment before rudely bolting, abandoning her friend to her second-class status. The message of the ad is that fast-streaming Internet is more important than friendship, manners or simple human decency. This commercial made me want to hate the sponsor. It made me want to hate Jones, who has always been so lovely in everything else she’s ever done. Clearly, 21st-century connectivity has some people acting crazy. Perhaps that’s why they want to leave it all behind and go “off the grid.” That’s the premise of the new show “Unplugged Nation” (9 p.m., FYI). In each episode of this ninepart real estate series, a family hoping to leave the urban grind will look at three extremely remote locations. After their Goldilocks tour of the unconnected life, the family members choose one of the homes, or decide that they’re really not cut out for the “Unplugged” lifestyle after all. ‘‘Unplugged” isn’t the only show to extol extreme and highly conceptual lifestyles. It airs after an hour of “Tiny House Nation” (8 p.m., FYI).

Tonight’s other highlights

Crooners from different decades blend in song in the 2015 musical “Teen Beach 2” (8 p.m., Disney).

Molly gets news about Ethan on “Extant” (8 p.m., CBS).

The invitational round continues on “Last Comic Standing” (9 p.m., NBC).

Sean Lowe and Jason Mesnick stoop to “Celebrity Wife Swap” (9 p.m., ABC).

A gospel group unravels without its leader on “Key & Peele” (9 p.m., Comedy Central).

Elliot hopes to spring Vera from jail on “Mr. Robot” (9 p.m., USA).

Buddy’s service leaves some unimpressed on “Impastor” (9:30 p.m., TV Land).

that was otherwise not really their business. There are women who say they would want to know and feel betrayed when they discover that friends and family members didn’t tell them. There are an equal number of women who shoot the messenger, opting to close their eyes and stay in the marriage, often cutting off contact with the person who told the truth. Our opinion is that it’s best to confront the cheater, letting him know you are aware of his actions and could tell the spouse, and suggesting counseling. Dear Annie: Are there any websites devoted to helping people find nursing homes or assisted living facilities for relatives who moved to other states and did not plan for when they got older? These people do

not have family members who live nearby, and now their far-flung nieces and nephews are trying to help them out. I am sure others around the country deal with this and could use some guidance, too. Where do we go for help? — Marie Dear Marie: Medicare offers an excellent guide for choosing a nursing home, along with other free publications and resources on their website at medicare.gov. Just type “find nursing home” in the search box. People who are considering retiring to warmer climates away from their families may want to check this out and be prepared for whatever happens down the road. — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O.

Panko-Encrusted Salmon with Summer Vegetables

SUMMER SIMPLICITY

Crispy salmon and roasted vegetables make for quick and easy ‘Mama Meal’

wrote last week about liking to cook simple things in the summer that aren’t fussy, with ingredients that are easily accessible from the kitchen or garden. I also like to avoid turning on the oven, but when the heat index is over 100 degrees, sometimes indoor cooking is a necessity. When that happens, I like to make things that will cook quickly. No roasting large pieces of meat for hours. I want to cook and move on. Cooking things with few ingredients is another goal for fresh summer cooking. A vegetable or two, protein, maybe some fresh herbs, and you can have a delicious, nutritious meal without dirtying every dish

The Flying Fork

Megan Stuke

1 cup panko bread crumbs This week’s Mama Meal 1 teaspoon salt was panko-encrusted salmon 1 lemon with garden vegetables. I love 1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro this because I do it all on one 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder cookie sheet and there’s so Cracked black pepper little mess. It makes a nice 1 small summer squash, presentation, even if it’s just sliced thinly and quartered for me. Sometimes I need 1 Roma tomato, diced to look at something on my 2 tablespoons diced serrano plate other than a salad or a pepper kid meal of chicken nuggets Olive oil and green beans, you know?

in the house and spending Panko-encrusted a lot of time and money on long ingredient lists. Salmon with I try to eat salmon or Summer some fish at least once a week, even though my kids Vegetables will have nothing to do with it. That means I enjoy eating Ingredients vegetables that they don’t 1 full salmon fillet (fresh is like and do a full on “Mama best but frozen will do) Meal” for myself.

Directions Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle a little olive oil on a large cookie sheet and lay the salmon fillet on, skin side down. Sprinkle with kosher salt. In a small bowl, mix together the panko and the dried herbs and little more salt

and pepper. Sprinkle the panko liberally over the fish. Arrange the squash around the salmon, and sprinkle the diced tomato and peppers over the top of everything. Salt and pepper the veggies, and drizzle everything with olive oil. Bake for 15 minutes or until the fish is flaky. A thinner cut of salmon will need less cooking time. Squeeze the lemon over the top and serve hot. Serves three generous portions. — Megan Stuke is a busy mom who often flies by the seat of her pants while trying to prepare nutritional and interesting meals for her family.

Blackberry Pear Upside-Down Cake

A fruity summer upside-down cake

ummer means warm weather, cold drinks and all kinds of amazing fruit. Why not take advantage of some of those naturally sweet treats by baking up a dessert that features locally grown fruit? And, you know, evilly delicious fattening stuff. For this cake, we take the classic brown sugar and butter topping of a pineapple upside-down cake and match it up with sweet pears and tart blackberries.

Blackberry Pear Upside-Down Cake For the topping: 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1 large pear Ripe blackberries

For the cake: 1/2 cup butter, softened 3/4 cup white sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoons almond extract 1 1/2 cups flour 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoons salt Ground cinnamon Ground nutmeg Directions Fire up your oven to 350 F (as usual) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan. Choose one with fairly high sides to prevent spills. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the bottom of the pan. Melt the first half cup of butter and drizzle it over the brown sugar. Swirl

Bite Sighs

Audrey Lintner it around, kind of like you’re panning for gold, in order to let the sugar soak up all of the butter. Peel and core the pear, and then slice it into thin wedges. Arrange the slices in the pan on top of the butter and sugar. Make it pretty. Slice the blackberries lengthwise and place them cut side up in the pan, here and there between the pears. Does it look nice? OK, then. On to the cake.

Whirl the second half cup of butter together with the white sugar in your stand mixer until the sugar stops making that grating noise. Add the eggs, one at a time, and the extracts. Blend on medium speed for about a minute. Add the baking powder and salt to the flour, and then add a shake or two each of the cinnamon and nutmeg. Go with your instincts on this one; it’s all a matter of personal taste. Stir the dry ingredients together. Dump the flour blend into your mixing bowl and beat everything together on medium speed just until incorporated. Carefully spoon the resulting batter over the fruit pattern in your pan and smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Slide the pan into the

oven and let it bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is nicely browned and springs back when touched with a finger. When the cake tests done, pull the pan out of the oven and set it on a rack just long enough to run a knife around the edges. Invert a serving plate onto the cake pan and flip the whole pile over; juggling skills will come in handy here, as will hot pads. Shimmy the cake pan loose and gaze in awe at your fabulous fruit creation. This cake is best served warm, but will keep for a few days at room temperature, covered in plastic wrap.
