The new rules say that by 2030, the nation’s fossil-burning power plants, such as the coal-fired Lawrence Energy Center, must reduce their carbon emissions by 32 percent from their 2005 levels, a more ambitious goal than originally proposed. It also requires each state to adopt its own plan for achieving that goal.

To keep 125 residents safe each night, the Lawrence Community Shelter has the challenge of finding the right balance between preventing potential harm and welcoming those in need. Trey Meyer, the shelter’s interim director of operations and director of program development, said Friday that the only “black and white” rule of shelter intake is that anyone listed as a registered sex offender is not allowed to be a guest. All other factors, such as criminal history, are decided on a case-by-case basis. Please see SHELTER, page 2A

Customers will be able to order their food from the trucks and then have the option of taking the food inside the Fork to Fender space.

Food trucks in Lawrence aren’t allowed to have liquor licenses. But by having a storefront, the businesses will be able to sell craft beers, wines and other alcoholic beverages at the inside location. The storefront also will serve as a space for some vendors of the Lawrence Farmers’ Market to sell their items year-round. Ireland said the store plans to stock some of the honey, jams, jellies and even the locally raised meat. “We’re trying to make it a small business hub of local artisan food vendors,” Ireland said. “We want that local community feel.” Ireland said the busi-

Journal-World obituary policy:
Roy Franklin “Oscar” Mozingo, 82, of Gridley, Kansas, passed away Thursday afternoon, July 30, 2015, at the Presbyterian Manor in Lawrence, Kansas. He was born February 3, 1933, at Gridley, the son of Walter Lawrence and Esther A. (Smith) Mozingo. He grew up in Gridley and graduated from Gridley High School in 1951. He served in the United States Army from May 1953 to April 1955. On January 29, 1956, Roy and Elsie J. Brewer were married in Emporia, Kansas. They became the parents of two daughters. Roy was a heavy equipment operator. He worked on the construction of the new turnpike at Emporia, for Gridley Lumber Company and Diebolt Lumber Company in LaHarpe, KS. He worked with his father, W. L. Mozingo, and later owned and operated his own heavy equipment business. Roy was a longtime member of the Gridley Christian Church. He was also a member of Hebron Lodge #314, A.F. & A.M. and PhillipsStukey-Shaffer Post #296, American Legion in Gridley. Roy and Elsie suffered the loss of their daughter, Janice Kay Trahan, on February 25, 1998. He was also preceded in death by his parents; a son-in-law, Galen Douglass; two brothers, Walter and Melvin Mozingo; and a sister, Lillian Leighton. He leaves Elsie, his

nesses took possession of the storefront last week and have begun renovations. She said they hope to have the business open sometime in September. But there are still hurdles to meeting that date. The business has created a Kickstarter campaign in hopes of raising $9,000 to help cover the cost of the liquor license and some additional kitchen equipment. As for the type of food to be served, Ireland said it will be an eclectic mix. Drasko’s is known for down-home comfort food and barbecue dishes. The Purple Carrot is a vegan food truck that does things like avocado smoothies, veggie burgers and other such fare. Wilma’s Real Good Food — which recently was named the best food
truck in Kansas City by KC Magazine — makes dishes such as meatball sliders, homemade bratwursts and fried grits. Torched Goodness plans to expand its menu from its dessert theme to include meat pies, such as shepherd’s pie and chicken pot pie, plus frittatas and other dishes. But don’t worry, Torched Goodness also will continue making its creme brulee, and will continue to have its stand downtown and also at the Saturday farmers’ market. That’s good news because, as I have learned, I need a really wide berth when I’m going around Kasold Curve with a handheld kitchen torch. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which runs each weekday at LJWorld.com.
“We want to know everything to be able to decide if a (potential guest) would be a good fit (at the shelter),” Meyer said. “Just because you have a criminal history doesn’t mean you can’t turn things around.” But though the shelter has a screening process in place, it can’t prevent all possible problems. In May, an adult male shelter resident was arrested after a 14-year-old female shelter resident claimed the man followed her into her room and tried to entice her into having sex with him, according to an arrest affidavit in the case. The man, a 28-year-old, was charged with indecent solicitation of a child and interference with law enforcement, and is currently in the Douglas County Jail on a $30,000 bond. Prior to his arrest, the man had allegedly been lying about his identity “because he thought he had a warrant out of Mississippi,” according to the affidavit. At his first appearance, prosecutors revealed the man was wanted on an armed robbery charge. Meyer said the shelter has no way to check for warrants, and that most criminal history must be divulged by guests. Shelter staff do check the sex offender registry and use the Kansas Department of Correction’s public online criminal justice information system. To help keep children safe, families and single adults are assigned to separate housing areas, Meyer said. Of the 125 total guests at the shelter Friday, 36 of them were with a family. “We don’t permit single adults to roam through the family side,” Meyer said. But if the allegations are true, the man charged with indecent liberties with a child again fell through the cracks of that safeguard, as well. Both he and the 14-yearold alleged victim had families in the shelter, according to the affidavit, so the man was presumably expected to be where the solicitation is alleged to have occurred. Though problems can arise, Meyer said, the shelter works diligently to protect its guests and help them to get back on their feet. “We will never knowingly subject our guests to potential harm,” Meyer said. Meyer said if the shelter refused beds to all potential guests with criminal histories, many people in need would go unserved. “Every person is different, and just because a person has had difficulties in the past doesn’t mean they can’t turn the corner,” Meyer said, “and we want to help them do that.”

Suspect in 3-county car chase in hospital after crash By Karen Dillon Twitter: @karensdillon
Marty D. Stowe, a parole violator who allegedly led several police agencies on a 30-minute chase through three counties before the car crashed Friday, is in a Topeka hospital, a Douglas County spokeswoman confirmed Monday. A woman who was riding in the car with Stowe also is in a hospital, law
enforcement officials said. But officials declined to say on Monday how serious their injuries were. After the crash, a police radio broadcast that there were two “code reds,” an indication of serious medical injuries. Sgt. Trent McKinley said the vehicle, a Chevy Impala, sustained heavy damage in the crash and that Stowe, 43, and his
passenger were trapped inside the car. Stowe, whose family is from Lawrence, had been staying at the Airport Motel just north of Lawrence with his girlfriend for a few days, Patrick Hawse, a motel clerk, said Monday. On Friday about 6:30 p.m., a Lawrence police officer who had been
searching for Stowe spotted a car at the Airport Motel, 1493 U.S. Highway 40, that he believed to be associated with Stowe, McKinley said. Because the motel is a few hundred feet outside the city limits, the officer called the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and asked for assistance. He then proceeded to monitor the
situation at the motel, McKinley said. When the deputy arrived, the officer reported that Stowe and another person had gotten into the silver 2007 Impala and were driving southbound on East 1500/ North Seventh Street. The deputy tried to stop the vehicle, but the car sped off. The police officer joined in the pursuit, McKinley said.
When the Impala turned west on North Street, it clipped a deputy who tried to stop him, injuring him, McKinley said. The deputy’s injuries were not serious, and he was still able to join in the pursuit, said Sgt. Kristen Dymacek, a spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office.

New Senior Services director search ongoing By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @conrad_swanson
Douglas County Senior Services board members have taken over the responsibilities of the nowvacant executive director position and a replacement search is underway. Former executive director Kristin Scheurer handed in her resignation in late July. Board Chairman Dennis Domer said Scheurer held the executive director position for less than two years. “Kristin wants to pursue other opportunities, especially her own businesses, and that’s why she decided to do something different,” he said. Domer could not specifically say

31st may open later than expected A portion of 31st Street long closed for the ongoing South Lawrence Trafficway project is going to be closed just a few days longer, Lawrence representatives said. The section of 31st between Ousdahl Road and Haskell Avenue originally was slated to open Wednesday, said city engineer David Cronin, but Kansas Department of Transportation officials working on the project
asked for more time. “All the concrete’s in, it’s just a matter of finishing off the small punch list items to get to the 100 percent complete stage,” Cronin said. Although KDOT workers hope to open the stretch by week’s end, Cronin said the date could be pushed back even further depending on the weather. — Conrad Swanson
the position. Domer said he and board members Judy Bellome and Steve Tesdahl have assumed Scheurer’s duties while they look for a replacement. They hope to fill the position within the next two months, he said. “We have a very strong board and management team together,” he said. “And so we think that we can keep the boat afloat for the next eight weeks or so.” Senior Services aims to provide meals, social functions, tax assistance, transportation and more to Douglas County senior citizens, enabling them to remain independent and in their homes. Attempts to contact Scheurer Monday afternoon were not successful.

Kelly said this year’s festival will also offer more physical activities, including dance, cardio drumming and a humansized foosball event. But most importantly, the festival offers a variety of things for people to try out themselves, and Kelly said he hopes that the event helps people to realize that anybody can be creative. “I hope that they see the power of learning and creativity and sharing,” Kelly said. “People just want to share their creativity and encourage others to be creative as well.” A full schedule of events is available on ConfabuLarryum’s Facebook page.

The officer complained to the restaurant and pictures of the taco wrappers circulated on social media. Jeff Graves, senior director of operations for Taco Bell, said Monday the worker was fired. He told KAKE-TV that Taco Bell strongly supports law enforcement and the company apologizes to the officer, his fiancee and all Newton police officers. co contraband, according to the records. Stowe was released in June, but on July 23 he was reported as “absconded,” which meant he failed to report to the parole office, Pfannenstiel said. A warrant was issued for his arrest. On Monday the corrections department issued a new warrant that will serve to hold Stowe until the various law enforcement agencies decide whether to file more charges, Pfannenstiel said. Even if no charges are filed, Stowe is facing more prison time because of the parole violation.

Fairgrounds future Work soon will be underway to make the Douglas County Fairgrounds an even better destination for local visitors and events.
T
he Douglas County fair completed another successful run last weekend, drawing an estimated 20,000 people to the county fairgrounds to view exhibits, hear some music, enjoy some carnival rides or participate in other popular fair events. Perhaps because of the heat, attendance was down a little this year, according to fair officials, but even in a hot Kansas July, the fair is an important tradition for Douglas County families. Although the fair is over for another year, a whole new flurry of activity soon will be underway at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Roughly $6.5 million in new construction and renovations are planned to begin later this fall. The project will include the addition of a 50,000-square-foot “open pavilion” directly east of the indoor arena and extensive work on the existing derby arena. Buildings 1 and 2 just south of the county extension office will be razed and replaced with a single square building, called the “Meeting Hall,” which will be divided by a central corridor to facilitate its use by two groups at the same time. In addition to improving available space at the fairgrounds, the project also will allow updates to utilities installed during the 1950s and work to provide easier access for people with disabilities. As county residents know, the Douglas County Fair isn’t the only event that draws people to the fairgrounds. Those facilities play host to many events throughout the year, including regular 4-H events, youth soccer, horse shows, an annual swap meet, dog and cat shows, car rallies and private events. These events provide more than entertainment; they also are an economic boost for the community. The county’s description of the fairgrounds renovation cites a 2011 report from the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau indicating that the fairgrounds draw more than 96,000 visitors a year — 13 percent of all visitors to Lawrence. Those visitors and events generate income of more than $8 million and local tax income of $200,000 per year, according to the report. Officials expect at least some of the fairgrounds work to continue through next year’s fair. By then, they hope to be able to point to the construction work as a sign of even better things to come for this much-used facility. Congratulations to county and fair officials for another successful fair and for moving forward on a project that is sure to make the fairgrounds an even more desirable year-round gathering spot for local residents and visitors to Lawrence.

What is The Donald’s exit strategy? By Michael Smerconish The Philadelphia Inquirer
Full disclosure: I never thought Donald Trump would formally declare his candidacy. Nor did I think he would make the required financial disclosure. And I was sure his asinine comments about John McCain would cause his numbers to tank. But I was wrong on all three, or what Mr. Trump would call “a loser.” At this stage, even I’m thinking that maybe he was right to have once tweeted: “I can’t believe that @CNN would waste time and money with @smerconish — he has got nothing going. Jeff
“
More likely is that Trump will soon become the first star to fade, similar to the fate of Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich in the 2012 election.”
Zucker must be losing his touch!” Still, I want to quadruple down. I cannot see him competing beyond the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary, which both take place next February — assuming that his name is even on those two states’ ballots. Despite his early success, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him drop out of competition before votes are cast in either of those states. Thank goodness I have company.
Prediction supported Stuart Stevens, the chief adviser for the Romney campaign in 2012, recently told Politico Magazine that he was “highly skeptical” Trump would be on either of those ballots. “The process has no respect for wealth, status or power,” Stevens said. “All of that argues, to me, that Donald Trump will use the system to make the points
he is making and exit before the parade of judgment days we call elections.” Thursday’s debate might hasten Trump’s fall if he is forced to offer substance in his responses to Fox News moderators Bret Baier, Megyn Kelly and Chris Wallace. None is a patsy. He might escape a bit longer given that 90 minutes of debating split 10 ways could give him ample opportunity to dodge. Or maybe one of his opponents will engage him in a manner not seen thus far except by former Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
Has campaign peaked? Regardless of the shortterm outcome, my view is that he has peaked. A Quinnipiac University poll released last week shows him holding firm at 20 percent among Republican voters. Impressive in a (now) 17-candidate field, but where is the growth potential? Who are the people who thus far, despite all of his coverage, have opted not to support him but will change their minds? I don’t see it, particularly where a full 30 percent — of Republicans — say there is no way they will ever support him. More likely is that Trump will soon become the first
star to fade, similar to the fate of Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain and Newt Gingrich in the 2012 election. If I’m right, I doubt he has the resolution of Hillary Clinton in 2008, or the fortitude of Rick Santorum in 2012, to hang on when it’s pretty clear the race is unwinnable. The Donald doesn’t do second place in anything, much less fifth, sixth or 10th.
Exit strategy What I can’t fathom is his exit strategy. There’s no way he tanks in the polls or gets thumped at the ballot box, makes a concession speech and goes quietly into the night. This man needs a big finish. Something fitting his ego. It’s gotta be grandiose. Such as when, in the summer of 1992, Ross Perot suddenly withdrew his bid for the presidency. (He resumed the race soon thereafter and placed third with 18.9 percent of the vote.) Perot’s stated rationale was that he didn’t want the contest to be determined by the House of Representatives, after no winner emerged from the Electoral College. Later came the “true” reason for his withdrawal: Perot said President George H.W. Bush was planning to dis-
rupt his daughter’s wedding with a computer-altered photograph. “I can’t prove any of it today, but it was a risk I did not have to take, and a risk I would not take where my daughter is concerned,” Perot told “60 Minutes.” Consequently, the bar for withdrawal has been set pretty high by one billionaire for another. What does The Donald say or do to get out? Here’s the best I can come up with for now: Because the escaped Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman had apparently put a price on Trump’s head, he could use the resulting security risk as the reason why he needs to accede to his family’s wishes and exit the race. Or maybe he will soon announce that he will withdraw from the campaign because third wife, Melania, is expecting baby No. 2 — Trump’s sixth child and a sibling for older brother Barron. I know — it sounds crazy. Like saying your opponent is going to disrupt your daughter’s wedding. — Michael Smerconish writes for The Philadelphia Inquirer, and is host of “Smerconish” on CNN.

Nuclear sanity
we dropped a more powerful atomic weapon on Nagasaki. There never was an accurate count of the deaths, but we do know that hundreds of thousands of people died directly due to immediate incineration or to the effects of fire and collapse of buildings or later due to radiation poisoning. These bombs were much less powerful than those now stockpiled in at least nine countries. This should be a reminder to all of us of what could happen if a nuclear weapon again were used. Our rationale for maintaining a nuclear force used to be to counter the threat from the USSR: They wouldn’t bomb us because we would retaliate in kind. We still are operating on that outmoded model and we are planning to spend more than $350 billion in the next ten years to modernize our weapons. A greater threat surely is that a terrorist group somehow will obtain a nuclear bomb. ISIS and al-Qaida don’t present targets for nuclear retaliation so there is no balance of nuclear power with them. We need to press vigorously to reduce and eliminate the more than 15,000 existing nuclear weapons. Sens. Roberts and Moran should support the agreement limiting Iran’s ability to develop such weapons. You can take a stand for nuclear sanity by joining the annual demonstration at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at Ninth and Massachusetts. Joe Douglas, Lawrence

Westar Energy's Lawrence Energy Center, 1250 N. 1800 Road, pictured in November 2007 “The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected proposals to limit emissions that fail to take into account the cost of compliance,” Kansas Chamber president Mike O’Neal said Monday. “This proposal violates that rule by once again failing to account for the exorbitant and prohibitive cost of compliance.” O’Neal was referring to a decision in June when the court, in a 5-4 ruling, struck down EPA limits on mercury and other toxic emissions from power plants, saying the agency must take costs into consideration when making such rules. The state of Michigan filed the challenge, and Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt, a Republican, joined in that challenge. “What we need are policies that encourage our manufacturers, not policies that are calculated to punish and penalize,” O’Neal said. “We support the viability of our economy, not some notion of what the current president envisions his ‘legacy’ to be.” Schmidt’s office said Monday that it is likely he will join in a challenge of the Clean Power Plan. “We will be reviewing the plan carefully,” his spokeswoman, Jennifer Rapp, said. “However, it appears from the EPA’s own summary that the Obama Administration has failed to accommodate the comments that were offered by the attorney general, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, the Kansas Corporation Commission, and 4.3 million others regarding the EPA’s massive restructuring of state economies through the regulation of the generation and dispatch of energy to consumers and businesses. Legal action is a likely outcome.” Republican Gov. Sam Brownback also criticized the new rules. “The EPA failed to adequately consider the negative impact this overreaching regulation has

on Kansas rate payers, resulting in higher electricity rates and greater uncertainty in grid reliability,” Brownback said in a statement released late Monday. “The final rule released today is twice as bad for Kansas as the proposed rule released last summer and requires us to review not only the rule itself but reconsider the state’s overall approach to the Clean Power Plan.” Kansas has already cut carbon emissions from power plants by 11 percent since 2008, according to the White House. That is largely due to a state law, enacted in 2009, known as a renewable portfolio standard, or RPS, which required electric utilities to produce at least 20 percent of their power from renewable sources by 2020. Utilities in Kansas actually surpassed that goal last year when wind energy produced 21.7 percent of the state’s energy. But Kansas lawmakers repealed the RPS law this year, replacing it with a voluntary standard. They also passed a law setting up procedures that could make it difficult for Kansas to implement the Clean Power Plan. The law authorizes the Department of Health and Environment to develop a state plan, in conjunction with the Kansas Corporation Commission, which regulates public utilities in Kansas. But any plan they develop also must be approved by a special legislative committee that is headed by the chairmen of the House and Senate utilities committees. Those two chairmen, Rep. Dennis Hedke, of Wichita, and Sen. Robert Olson, of Olathe, have both stated publicly that they do not believe carbon emissions in the atmosphere are a cause of global climate change. — Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222.

“We applaud the EPA’s moving forward with these rules,” said Rabbi Moti Rieber, coordinator of Kansas Interfaith Power & Light, a faithbased group that lobbies the Kansas Legislature on environmental policy. “People of faith from every tradition know that climate change isn’t solely a scientific issue, but a moral one.” The White House announced the new rules Sunday, along with statespecific information about the benefits that the Obama administration says will result from the new rules. In 2013, the White House said, Kansas power plants emitted 33 million metric tons of carbon pollution, equal to the yearly pollution from nearly 7 million automobiles. In addition to cutting carbon emissions, the administration said, the new guidelines will also cut other forms of pollution such as soot and smog, which it says will produce significant health benefits. But utility companies are worried that the new standards, which have been in the works for more than a year, could force them to retire old coal-fired power plants before they have time to put new, cleaner generating facilities in place, something they say could threaten the reliability of the entire power grid. “The rule will impact rates and could impact reliability, but it’s too soon to say how much,” said Gina Penzig, spokeswoman for Topeka-based Westar Energy. “We work every day to improve reliability while keeping costs as low as we can.” Penzig noted that Westar has already reduced its carbon emissions by 15 percent from 2005 levels. But Westar, along with Kansas City Power and Light, together recently invested $600 million upgrading the coal-fired La Cygne power plant in Linn County to meet other EPA regulations, money they are now seeking to recover through a rate increase. Those utilities have argued that they should be allowed to recoup those kinds of costs at La Cygne and elsewhere before they are forced to retire those plants because of new regulations. And business groups also worry that the rules will drive up the cost of electricity, which could have a significant impact on the manufacturing industry.

Senate Dems protect Planned Parenthood Erin Kelly USA TODAY
WASHINGTON Senate Democrats blocked an attempt Monday by Republican leaders to cut off federal funding for Planned Parenthood, but the debate is likely to reignite this fall and could lead to a possible government shutdown. Senators voted 53-46 for a bill from Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, that would stop the non-profit group from receiving any federal money from Congress. Supporters needed 60 votes to ad-
vance the legislation. The vote was largely symbolic since it was clear that Republicans — who have a 54-vote majority — did not have the super majority needed to move forward. The issue is likely to re-emerge in the fall. Conservatives in the House and Senate vowed to block passage of 2016 spending bills unless federal funding for Planned Parenthood is halted. The White House has threatened to veto any legislation that would end funding for the organization. The standoff has the potential to result in a government shut-
down. Congress must pass legislation by Sept. 30 to keep the government funded for fiscal 2016, which begins Oct. 1. The latest effort to take away the organization’s funding came in the wake of the release of videos by anti-abortion activists. Those videos show Planned Parenthood officials discussing procedures for obtaining and selling organs from aborted fetuses for medical research. The group has said it does not profit from the sale of fetal tissue and has done nothing improper nor illegal. “The revelations we’ve seen
from Planned Parenthood are deeply disturbing,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, RKy., said. “They raise real fundamental questions about what kind of society we want to be.” Planned Parenthood is barred from using any of the $528 million in federal funds it receives each year for abortions. The group uses the federal money to provide women with birth control, cancer screenings and other services. “Taking away this funding is political, shortsighted and downright dangerous,” said Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont.

China’s tech dreams clash with its politics Owen Ullmann @OUllmann USA TODAY
HANGZHOU, CHINA During my first visit to China in 1989, I encountered a country where bicycles were the main mode of transportation, Western tourists were a novelty, and industry was rudimentary. On my second visit in 2001, I found a country that had transformed itself into a global manufacturing mecca with gleaming skyscrapers, cars clogging roads and stores catering to an influx of Western tourists. My visit this summer revealed China taking another great leap forward: from mega-manufacturer to a world leader in hightech and service industries. In Beijing, I met with officials from Baidu, China’s version of Google, and Weibo, a cross between Twitter and Facebook. In Hangzhou, a city of 9 million south of Beijing, I visited the sprawling world headquarters of Alibaba, China’s Amazon, eBay and PayPal all rolled up into one. My third stop was in Shenzhen, a fishing village near Hong Kong that was turned into a planned metropolis of more than 10 million in just 35 years. There, I toured the home of Huawei, an employee-owned company that makes networking equipment and smartphones (third in sales after Apple and Samsung). Shenzhen also is home to BYD (Build Your Dreams), a “green” auto manufacturer that hopes to be a world
leader in battery-operated vehicles. My trip was sponsored by the Honolulu-based East-West Center, a non-profit group that promotes better relations between the United States and Asian nations, and the All-China Journalists Association, which was eager to show off the country’s hightech stars. There was much to boast about. Baidu representative Kaiser Kuo said his search-engine company’s smartphone software is “way far ahead of the U.S. in what we can do,” from mapping services to every form of commercial transaction. Weibo spokesman Julian Gong explained how his social media company has a sophisticated ad revenue model that Twitter would envy. At Alibaba’s massive complex, company officials see a huge new revenue stream beyond e-commerce: software that analyzes big data collected from its customer base of 350 million users. That information could be sold for purposes ranging from commercial marketing to medical research. In Shenzhen, Huawei Technologies rep Joe Kelly said the company, with revenue of nearly $50 billion last year, plans to be a pioneer in developing a hyperspeed 5G network that lets users download full-length movies in two seconds or less. Meanwhile, government planners have dreams of huge new service industries. Financial services are just getting off the ground as more Chinese save and invest. Hangzhou is developing a leafy, suburban-like office park modeled after Greenwich,

Conn., home to many hedge funds, in hopes of luring Western financial services companies interested in managing China’s burgeoning wealth. Yet here’s the flaw in China’s ambition to be a great tech leader: A suffocating central government still keeps close watch on every aspect of society, from where people live and work to what they say to how many kids they can have (mostly one). That has not changed at all since my first visit. True, people we met seem content with their work and personal lives, yet the government’s heavy hand is still omnipresent. Google, Facebook and Twitter don’t operate in China because of tight censorship, which limits Baidu and Weibo searches and
eliminates posts considered a threat to the ruling Communist Party. Asked about that, the company spokesmen say it’s illegal to discuss the matter. You see the control in the dozens of surveillance cameras, heavy police presence and crowd-control barriers surrounding Beijing’s massive Tiananmen Square, where troops killed pro-democracy protesters in 1989, to guard against future unauthorized gatherings. Recently the government has clamped down on human rights lawyers. You sense the government’s presence reading the Englishlanguage China Daily, a government-subsidized newspaper. Deputy Editor in Chief Qu Yingpu says editors often run stories critical of the government, but I didn’t see any during my 10-day visit. Even in the “free market” the government created, I saw frantic government efforts to manipulate China’s stock market. It created a bubble by luring small, first-time investors with cheap loans to buy stocks, then desperately jumped in this summer with measures to brake the slide that included banning big trades. China seems obsessed with replicating America’s economic prosperity and innovation. It certainly has the infrastructure, capital and know-how. What I found missing on my trip is the basic freedom to live, work and speak as you want. Without that essential ingredient, China’s goal to re-create the American dream will remain just a mirage.

Climate plan becomes torch in ’16 race ‘This is our moment to get this right,’ Obama says, as presidential hopefuls take sides David Jackson @djusatoday USA TODAY
Combating climate change will protect the nation’s economy, security and health, President Obama said Monday in unveiling a plan designed to reduce power plant emissions and fated to be a major 2016 campaign issue. “This is our moment to get this right and leave something better for our kids,” he said about his “Clean Power Plan.” A major plank in Obama’s overall climate change agenda, the plan immediately became a fault line in the emerging fight to succeed him as president. Democratic presidential candidates praised the plan as a good way to confront the challenges of climate change; Republicans cast it as over-regulation that will reduce jobs and inflate utility bills and vowed to change it if elected. “There is such a thing as being too late when it comes to climate change,” Obama said, blaming it for stronger storms, deeper droughts and longer-lasting wildfire seasons. Levels of carbon dioxide are the highest in 800,000 years, Obama said, causing more cases of asthma and other diseases — especially among children — and threatening the nation’s security. There are restrictions on other toxic chemicals, Obama said, but “there have never been federal limits on the amount of carbon that power plants can dump into the air.” While Obama laid out a stark vision of what could happen if no actions are taken, the next president will have a say on how — and if — Obama’s proposed emission reductions are enforced. New requirements — including the major one that carbon emissions be reduced 32% by the year 2030, relative to 2005 levels — kick in after Obama leaves office on Jan. 20, 2017. The Clean Power Plan will also be the subject of lawsuits from energy interests who say the government is exceeding its authority with a “war on coal.” In praising the president’s plan, Hillary Clinton — frontWASHINGTON
runner for the Democratic nomination in 2016 — said it “drives investments in clean energy and energy efficiency, reduces asthma attacks and premature deaths, and promotes a healthier environment and a stronger economy.” It is a “floor, not the ceiling,” Clinton said, vowing to go further with pollution restrictions and other climate change projects if she is elected. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, also seeking the Democratic nomination, said the plan sounds “like a step forward in ending our dependence on fossil fuel, and I support that effort.” Republican presidential candidates took a different tack. “The rule runs over state governments, will throw countless EPA

people out of work, and increases everyone’s energy prices,” said former Florida governor Jeb Bush. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said Obama should call his project the “Costly Power Plan,” saying “it will cost hard-working Americans jobs and raise their energy rates.” Walker, like other GOP candidates, vowed to stop it if elected. Congressional Republicans also criticized the plan. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., noted that GOP lawmakers are moving to block the new regulations. Rather than work with Congress on “energy diversification, this White House seems to want good politics, not good policy,” McConnell said. Contributing: Chrissie Thompson

Health groups say Obama plan on coal will save lives Liz Szabo
USA TODAY
Health groups on Monday praised President Obama’s plan to reduce carbon pollution from power plants. The new Clean Power Plan — certain to be challenged in the courts and in the Republican Congress — will require power plants to reduce carbon emissions by 32% from 2005 levels between now and 2030. According to the White House, the coal plan will reduce premature deaths related to power plant emissions by nearly 90% in 2030, preventing 3,600 premature deaths, 90,000 asthma attacks in children and 300,000 fewer missed school and work days. Almost one in five kids now suffer from asthma, said Harold Wimmer, national president and CEO of the American Lung Association. Air pollution and extreme weather events increase instances of asthma, injury and cardiovascular disease — putting children, the elderly and those with chronic health conditions at greatest risk, said physician Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association. Neurologist Alan Lockwood, a senior scientist with the advocacy group Physicians for Social Responsibility, estimated that coal-fired power plants are linked to 50,000 deaths a year in the USA, and that coal contributes to four of the five lead-
ing causes of death — heart disease, cancer, stroke and chronic respiratory disease. Though other energy sources pose health risks, “in terms of health effects, coal is by far the worst,” Lockwood said. Critics say there is no evidence the plan will reduce asthma. “It is shameful that the administration and its allies feel

compelled to use misleading language to attempt to build support for its legally questionable power plan which is about reducing carbon, not reducing asthma,” said Laura Sheehan, American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity spokeswoman. “Sadly, this rhetoric is nothing more than a red herring designed to hide the fact that carbon rule will not do anything to improve climate change but will result in higher electricity bills that few can afford,” she said. “With higher energy bills come tough choices about whether to keep the lights on or take needed medications.”

PRESIDENT’S CONDEMNATIONS DRAW IRE Shira Rubin
Special for USA TODAY
Israeli police launched an investigation Monday into incitement charges after a wave of social media users threatened President Reuven Rivlin, calling him a “traitor” and “Arab terrorist” after he condemned two attacks by Jewish Israelis that roiled the country. “Flames have engulfed our country. Flames of violence, flames of hatred, flames of false, distorted and twisted beliefs,” Rivlin wrote on Facebook in both Hebrew and Arabic. His statement over the weekend came after two brutal incidents.

21 major wildfires burn as Californians turn to social media to track threats John Bacon and Greg Toppo USA TODAY
T
housands of Californians remained out of their homes Monday as fires fueled by withering grass, brush and timber roared across vast swaths of the drought-stricken state. A massive, fast-moving wildfire 100 miles north of San Francisco that destroyed at least 24 homes threatened 6,300 more as almost 3,000 firefighters struggled to control the blaze. The Rocky Fire, which grew to 60,000 acres, was the most fierce among 21 major wildfires statewide battled by 9,000 firefighters, the state Department of Forestry and Fire Protection reported. More than 12,000 people have been evacuated. Wildfires were also burning in Washington, Oregon, Montana
and Wyoming as the West Coast suffers from the effects of extreme drought and summer heat. In the East, meanwhile, heavy rain caused widespread flooding in the Tampa Bay area Monday, closing roads, forcing evacuations and delaying air travel. Up to 11⁄2 feet of rain fell in parts of metro Tampa in the past 10 days, the National Weather Service said. By Monday morning, Tampa had exceeded its average August rainfall with more than 8 inches of rain, the Weather Channel said. At least 40 people were rescued from mobile home parks Monday, the Weather Channel reported. In California, the weather forecast promised little relief. Scattered thunderstorms were possible Monday evening across Northern California, the National Interagency Fire Center predicted, which could provide some rain — but also more wind and

More than 500 people joined a Facebook page called “Rocky Fire Evacuees,” which asked locals to register on a safe-and-well list. Residents inquired about evacuation sites and school schedules. Sabrina Rich asked for news of her father’s aunt. Neickol Cook answered her plea and that of another person who also hadn’t heard from his relative. She checked their homes, found them safe, and sent recordings to worried relatives. Then Cook packed her own bags. “I’m taking my grandbaby and my daughter and leaving,” she said.

The emotional manhunt for a man suspected of fatally shooting a Memphis police officer ended Monday night when the alleged killer surrendered to the U.S. marshal’s office, the Shelby, Tenn., sheriff’s office announced. Tremain Wilbourn, 29, is accused of killing Officer Sean Bolton, 33, during what started out as a traffic stop Saturday night, according to Memphis Police Director Toney ArmWilbourn strong. He said Bolton had stopped to examine a vehicle parked illegally in a South Memphis neighborhood but apparently interrupted a drug deal. Wilbourn was in the passenger seat, and after “some type of physical altercation,” he drew a gun and shot Bolton, Armstrong said. Wilbourn had been free on supervised release for a bank robbery sentence, Armstrong said. Wilbourn faces a first-degree murder charge. Armstrong said the drug transaction in question amounted to “less than 2 grams of marijuana,” which constituted “a misdemeanor citation and a fine.” “I think it’s safe to say that when you look at this individual, you’re looking at a coward,” Armstrong said. He said Wilbourn disputed that characterization. “ ‘One, I’m not a cold-blooded killer, and two, I am not a coward,’ ” Armstrong quoted Wilbourn as telling him in a brief conversation after his arrest.
IN BRIEF TEXAS AG CHARGED WITH SECURITIES FRAUD
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was booked Monday on three felony charges. Paxton, 52, is charged with two first-degree felonies for securities fraud and a third-degree felony for failing to register with the state to sell securities. The Republican surrendered Monday at the Collin County Jail, where he was fingerprinted and photographed before being released on personal recognizance bonds. Bond was set at $35,000. Paxton is accused of having defrauded two individuals of more than $100,000. He does not have to resign while he fights the charges. He can continue to work, just as Texas Gov. Rick Perry did after his two felony indictments in August 2014. — Jason Whitely, WFAA-TV

A jury that already convicted
James Holmes of first-degree murder and attempted murder marched closer to imposing the death penalty with a pivotal ver-
dict Monday for his role in killing 12 and injuring 70 in a crowded suburban Denver movie theater three years ago. The 27-year-old former University of Colorado neuroscience researcher faces either life in prison or the death penalty in the final phase of the trial that began in April. Victims now have a chance in coming days to detail how the shooting affected them. The jury took less than three hours Monday to weigh mitigating factors that Holmes’ defense put forward. Holmes’ parents, friends, neighbors and a psychiatrist argued that his character and a history of mental illness — from childhood through graduate school — should spare his life. “Does the jury unanimously find that the mitigating factors that exist do not outweigh the aggravating factors proven by the
prosecution? “The answer is ‘Yes,’ ” Judge Carlos Samour Jr. read Monday. — Nick Penzenstadler MAN KILLED OUTSIDE MISSISSIPPI COURTHOUSE
A man fatally shot a defendant Monday outside a Canton, Miss., courthouse as he was waiting to appear in court. Kendrick Brown, 37, had been expected to reject a plea deal in a drug-related case and was scheduled for trial this month, District Attorney Michael Guest said. Brown died of a single gunshot to the chest, according to Madison County Coroner Alex Breeland. The suspect, William Wells, 24, turned himself in. Wells had been a firefighter for about a year in Canton and had no history of trouble, Canton Fire Chief Andrew Hughes said.

ST. LOUIS He was shot in the line of duty. The St. Louis police chief called it an ambush. The police officer who was shot in July spoke for the first time on television since the shooting, asking that his name not be used out of concern for the safety of his family. “It was a hot St. Louis July night, like so many others I’ve worked before,” the officer recalls. Although it may have started out ordinary, his overnight shift on July 14 was nearly his last. Working his side job providing security in the Central West End, after a long regular shift for the department, the heat was taking its toll and the officer had taken off his bulletproof vest. He had done “rounds” in the upscale entertainment district for about two hours, checking doors and locking gates, when he noticed some individuals on the street around 4:30 a.m. “They were just walking. There was nothing particular about them but the hairs on my neck stood up,” he recalls. “And at that point there was a voice that told me grab my vest. I know it was God.” He put the vest back on and says the decision saved his life. The 16-year veteran won’t

Athens exchange reopens after 5 weeks, ends day down 16.2% Dani Vergou and Eric J. Lyman Special for USA TODAY
The Athens Stock Exchange absorbed a beating after it reopened following a five-week shutdown Monday, as analysts warned that shares could fall even more in the short term. Brokers said they spent the day trying to calm angry — or crying ATHENS
— investors after their portfolios shrank by a fifth or more in a single session, adding more pain on top of a gradual decline over the past several years. “There is a great deal of tension, and it seems like the worst is still yet to come,” said Takis Zamanis, chief trader at Beta Securities in Athens. He said shares of the Greek National Bank, which traded at $27.50 a few years ago, hit $0.09 Monday. The market plummeted 23% after it opened but climbed from there to end the day down 16.2%. The losses reduced the market’s capitalization by $8.8 billion.
“I’m about 25% poorer today than I was yesterday.” Dimitrios Arvanitis, 77, retired senior airline executive
In percentage terms, Monday’s drop was the second-biggest ever, behind an 18.7% decline when the global economic crisis began in 2008. The carnage was widespread: 79 of 86 listed stocks lost value Monday. Banking stocks were hit the hardest, dropping 30% across the board before trading limits kicked in to halt selling
of those securities. Zamanis said he expects bank share prices to fall further Tuesday. Investors found few takers for stocks they tried to sell. “Last week I told my broker to sell certain positions when the market opened,” said Dimitrios Arvanitis, 77, a retired senior airline executive based in Thessoloniki, Greece’s second-largest city. “But most shares I wanted to sell went unsold. The broker told me nobody was buying. I’m about 25% poorer today than I was yesterday,” Arvanitis said. “I knew it would be bad, but it’s one thing to prepare yourself for that and another
to see a lifetime of savings ticking away on the screen.” Monday’s market drop is the latest in a series of blows to Greece’s beleaguered economy. Greeks are still limited to withdrawing $66 a day from the fragile banking system. Andreas Malapetsas, 66, a retired merchant, tried to stay optimistic, saying he believed stocks would eventually bounce back: “Once a bailout is in place there will be some stability in the markets, and I think the exchange will start moving up again.” Lyman reported from Rome
MONEYLINE OIL PRICES HIT 4-MONTH LOW The slump in oil prices deepened Monday, pulling down the price of U.S. crude to the lowest level in more than four months. Benchmark U.S. crude fell $1.77, or 3.8%, to close at $45.35 a barrel in New York. U.S. crude is down 15% this year. “Right now we’re in a race to the bottom,” said Helima Croft, chief commodities strategist at RBC Capital in New York. “Oil producers are pumping what they can in the hopes that someone else will cut first.”

TYSON FOODS DOWN 9.9% Shares of Tyson Foods fell sharply Monday after the food giant reported lower-than-expected profit and sales results for the third quarter and lowered its financial outlook for the full year. Shares closed 9.9% lower at $39.96. Tyson, the nation’s largest meat processor, reported net income of $344 million or 83 cents a share for the third quarter. Adjusted earnings per share were 80 cents, below the 92 cents a share forecast by financial analysts. TWITTER SHARES PLUMMET Twitter shares hit a record low during trading Monday, at one point plunging more than 6%. The stock has been dropping since company executives rattled investors by saying that Twitter is in the midst of a long-term turnaround during the company’s earnings announcement last week. Chief Financial Officer Anthony Noto said Twitter did not expect to reignite user growth for a “considerable” time. Shares closed down 5.6% at $29.27.

Ford is ramping up production of the F-150 pickup nearly a year after the company launched the new all-aluminum version of the most popular vehicle in the country.
Jeep, surged 23% in July, with all of its U.S. vehicles posting increases. The Wrangler was up 18%, and the Cherokee was up 13%. The company sold 6,320 units of its recently introduced Renegade small crossover. But in the pickup truck wars, GM gained ground on Ford. GM’s Chevrolet Silverado soared 34% to 56,380 compared to the same period a year earlier, and the GMC Sierra increased 13% to 19,808, while Ford’s F-series pickup rose only 5% to 66,288. Ford’s LaNeve said the company is still ramping up production of the F-150 pickup truck nearly a year after the company launched the new all-aluminum version of the most popular vehicle in the country. He said the company would reach “normalized” levels by the end of the third quarter. With Ford lacking enough pickups, GM capitalized. That includes sales of midsize pickup trucks. GM sold 7,209 units of the new Chevrolet Colorado and 2,654 of the GMC Canyon. Small-car sales remained disappointing. The Nissan Versa subcompact, for example, plunged 36% to 9,949 units, and the Nissan Leaf electric vehicle fell 61% to 1,174. Fiat Chrysler’s Fiat brand fell 15%. Ford car sales fell 4% for the month. GM small cars also sagged, with the Sonic subcompact falling 21% and the Spark minicar falling 11.5%.
Citibank’s student loan practices draw fire

JULY VEHICLE SALES
Citibank is under investigation for its student loan-servicing practices, the New York-based bank disclosed Monday. The bank said it’s cooperating with the investigation but warned that regulators might order it to provide financial relief to customers and could decide to impose additional financial penalties. Citibank shares ended almost unchanged at $58.44 Monday fol-
lowing the disclosure. The bank’s disclosure of the investigation in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing did not identify the regulator. However, the bank said similar student loan-servicing practices have been the subject of an enforcement action against at least one other financial institution. The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced in July that Discover Bank and two affiliates would pay $18.5 million in consumer refunds and fines for using illegal practices while servicing private student loans. The Illinois-based depository institution overstated the minimum amounts due on billing statements, failed to provide information borrowers needed to obtain

federal income tax benefits and used illegal debt-collection practices by calling borrowers early in the morning and late at night, the
CFPB said. Discover declined to comment on the legal consent order filed by the regulator and neither admitted nor denied the findings. The CFPB sought public comment this year about student loan servicing, saying the survey results would be used “to assist market participants and policymakers on potential options to improve borrower service, reduce defaults, develop best practices, assess consumer protections, and spur innovation.” More than 8 million borrowers were in default on more than $110 billion in student loans, a problem that might be complicated by complaints related to loan servicing, the CFPB said this year in a report.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY
Investors have been flip-flopping between optimism and pessimism for months. But one indicator is warning investors to brace for trouble ahead. One way to measure the mood of investors is by comparing the S&P 500 High Beta Index vs. the Low Volatility Index. When the High Beta Index races ahead, that means investors are looking for thrills and willing to throw caution to the wind in the pursuit of big gains, Sam Stovall of S&P Capital IQ says. But when the Low Volatility Index assumes leadership, that’s a signal investors are hunkering down. Using this measure, Stovall says investors have taken a decidedly defensive stance since July
Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:
31, showing risk is out of fashion in the market since the market set a new high in May. This “riskoff mind-set” signals a tough time ahead for investors in August, he says. “In the month ahead, investors may therefore be more inclined to focus on their tans than on their portfolios.” The outperformance of low volatility stocks shows that investors are expecting August to again live up to its reputation as being a lousy one for stocks. The month ranks as the 10th worst for investors since 1945, Stovall says, just behind February and infamously bad September. But August doesn’t just hand losses to investors — but nerverattling moves. The month has put investors though the secondhighest level of volatility since 1950 based on the number of days the market swings by 1% or more. Only October is worse.

AT&T didn’t waste much time. Following the completion of its $49 billion acquisition of DirecTV on July 24, it has come up with a combined nationwide wireless and TV promotion that it hopes will draw new customers to the satellite TV service. Under the $200 a month plan, customers new to DirecTV or AT&T’s U-verse TV can get high definition and DVR service for up to four television receivers, along NEW YORK

with unlimited talk and text for up to four wireless lines. Ten gigabytes of shareable wireless data are included. New DirecTV customers must
sign a two-year contract to take advantage of the deal, U-verse customers a one-year contract. But the annual savings of up to $600 are only good for the first year, with prices climbing to prevailing rates after 12 months. AT&T says you’ll be able to watch DirecTV via an app on your phone or tablet right when you sign up at the store. AT&T is offering sweeteners to lure defectors from its wireless rivals. Current DirecTV and Uverse customers who switch to AT&T wireless from another carrier will receive a $100 credit for each line switched, along with a

High dividend yields should set off warning bell Q: Can dividends get too high? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: In the age of low interest rates, it can be tempting to chase after stocks with huge yields. Resist the urge. Trying to get a decent return without chasing after hot stocks can be difficult. There are some whopping dividends that far exceed the roughly 2% yield of the market if you’re willing to look. Phone operator Frontier Communications (FTR) is the highest-yielding stock in the Standard & Poor’s 500 at 9.11%, says S&P Capital IQ. That’s followed by another telecom, CenturyLink (CTL), with a yield of 7.65% and then by casino operator Wynn Resorts (WYNN) at 7.14%. A dividend yield is a company’s annual dividend payment per share divided by the stock price. But investors know to start asking questions when dividend yields get high. Dividend yields can get high because the stock prices are falling. That’s certainly the case at Wynn, as the stock has lost about half its value over the past year. That decline has pushed up the yield, perhaps to levels that could be difficult to maintain. Including all dividends paid, Wynn has paid out 252% more in dividends than net profit the past 12 months. Clearly, that’s not sustainable for long. Big dividends are great. But they can — and often are — cut or suspended when they get too large.

$200 trade-in credit for a new smartphone for each line. Recon Analytics analyst Roger Entner thinks the first-year savings make it a good deal for consumers. “As mobile and video have become the critical services that Americans use, it only makes sense to put them together,” he says. Customers will receive a single bill for wireless and TV. “This combined TV and wireless offer goes to the heart of why AT&T acquired DirecTV,” says Tammy Parker, a senior analyst at Current Analysis, “and shows that the carrier is moving very
quickly to create bundled offers that rivals cannot easily duplicate. Cable operators and Dish Network are now challenged to develop more differentiated offerings.” Dish has been rumored to be in merger talks with T-Mobile. Consumers of the new promotion can pile on speedy broadband service at home (where available) at rates starting at $30 a month. DirecTV’s popular NFL Sunday Ticket is not tied to the new deal, however, but is available at no extra cost in the first year to new subscribers of other DirecTV plans.

He’s going to drive huge eyeballs to the debate. He’s a true celebrity. He commands an audience, for whatever reason. He’s interesting. He just is. Trump may be peaking early.

NEW YORK Back in the spring of 2009, Lin-Manuel Miranda, fresh off winning a Tony Award for his first Broadway musical, In the Heights, was invited to perform at the White House. Rather than trot out a number from Heights, the performer/ composer/lyricist/librettist decided to introduce a song he’d written for a new project — one that, conveniently, focused on the USA’s founding fathers. “I hadn’t written anything else for the show yet,” Miranda, 35, recalls. “So it was a little like showing a sonogram at a week — to the president of the United States.” That embryo would develop into the most celebrated new musical in years and Broadway’s hottest ticket of the moment: Hamilton, which opens Thursday. President Obama saw the show in full at a preview July 18, accompanied by his daughters. The first lady caught it during a critically

Inspired by Alexander Hamil-
ton, Ron Chernow’s 2005 biography of our first Treasury secretary, the show reclaims history for a contemporary audience. Miranda stresses the central role of immigrants in shaping our nation — among
them Hamilton, born (out of wedlock) in the British West Indies. The score seamlessly fuses different traditions of musical storytelling; the lyrics are alternately rapped and sung, and there are nods to American icons from Rodgers and Hammerstein to the Notorious B.I.G. “It’s a love letter to musical theater,” says Miranda, who also plays the title role in Hamilton. “The new thread in the loom is that I’m trying to be as dense and intricate in the lyrics as my favorite hip-hop songs are.” Hamilton moves uptown to Broadway with the same racially and ethnically diverse cast from the Public Theater, where it premiered. Miranda’s parents are from Puerto Rico, and African Americans play George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Aaron Burr. When Miranda started reading Chernow’s book, he says, “I thought, this is so hip-hop, the way Hamilton writes his way off this island. I wasn’t thinking about color; I was thinking about what the voices would sound like.”

Here was an engaged father, tender with his kids, going about it with a sense of humor. And of course, as the novel unfolds, Atticus’ moral courage is matched only by his eloquence, and a dignity so potent people rise to their feet instinctively as he walks by, even in defeat. Who can forget the Reverend Sykes admonishing Scout, as they watch from the balcony of the Maycomb County Courthouse: “Miss Jeanne Louise, stand up. Your father’s passin’.” So I was as excited as anyone when I heard a “Mockingbird” followup was finally going to press. The new book, “Go Set a Watchman,” provoked more questions than it answered: Did the 89-year-old Harper Lee, from whom only thunderous silence issued in the decades after she wrote one of America’s best-loved novels, really want this work to see the light of day? Is there reason to doubt the manuscript’s murky origin story, as revealed by her own spokespeople?

Herrin advises that if you have questions about whether a problem requires emergency treatment, you should first call your primary care provider, who is best able to give advice and follow-up care based on your personal health history. Herrin adds, “If you can’t reach your doctor and don’t know, we’d obviously rather see you and help you figure things out.” Of course, if there’s a possibility that you may be having a stroke, heart attack or other life-threatening emergency, you should never waste time pondering a decision. Call 911 immediately. Here are some safety tips from the LMH Emer- Lightning During gency Department.

more harm than that of the spitters. But I can sympathize with a parent who reveals himself to be imperfect. Every day, my own incorrect decisions, moral shortcomings and tactical blunders are made plain in many small ways, and some big ones. My kids scream like it’s the end of the world, but at least half the time their tears flow as a result of my own bad calls. I’m the one who got my son all sugared up with too many sweets yesterday. Today I’m the one who stops my daughter in the middle of an activity I should never even have let her begin: “Sorry sweetheart, but you can’t sit on the kitchen table with a bare bottom anymore!” And that’s just the small stuff. Eventually, like all children, mine will become aware of my fundamental flaws,
growth, as the Clinton Parkway Nursery Farmers Market will become the latest SNAP authorized market in Lawrence (joining the Lawrence and Cottin’s markets). As farmers markets across the nation aim to make their produce more affordable and accessible through SNAP incentives, Market Match is spreading across northeast Kansas to make this a reality in this region. In June, Market Match expanded to farmers markets in Atchison, Iola, Manhattan and Pittsburg to increase participation of all community members.

You can also find information on social media using #MarketMatchKS or by “liking” the NEW Sustainability Facebook page. “Market Match is an incredibly important program for both our vendors and our lowincome shoppers,” said
Jill Campbell, one of the managers of the Pittsburg Farmers Market, which joined the program on June 13. The 2014 Market Match program kicked off with funding from the city of Lawrence, Douglas County, and the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department. This year, the city of Lawrence, Topeka Community Foundation, Kansas Health Foundation and Kansas Department of Health and Environment are providing funding for Market Match, helping the program to expand to new markets in the region.
bad behavior, and general wrongheadedness about whatever it is I’ve currently got all wrong without realizing it, just as I struggled with the audacity of my own parents to be human. The old Atticus is still my hero, but wasn’t he a little too perfect? Critics have rightly been hard on “Watchman” for its lack of polish and heavy reliance on a reader’s prior experience of “Mockingbird.” But for all that, “Watchman” may be a truer book. We all let our kids down somehow, and eventually they, too, will lose faith in their parents, just as we did. The question Lee poses now is how to go on in the face of this inevitable disappointment. And who better to ask than Atticus, whose definition of courage summarizes the situation: “It’s when you know you’re licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do.” Assuming the Alabama Securities Commission was correct in its ruling that Harper Lee is of sound mind, it took that kind of guts to publish this new book, which shows her will-
ingness to sacrifice a legacy of literary perfection to tell an awkward truth with an unfinished manuscript and reveal that the best dad anyone can think of, a character based on her own father, is flawed just like everyone else. The new Atticus is really the same old Atticus, only his message is different: Summoning the courage to try is as close as anyone ever gets to being a “good” parent, and we need only look to the headlines to see that, like Atticus, we’re not as far along as we thought when it comes to race. It’s not something people want to hear, but that never stopped Atticus before. And while “Watchman” is not the masterpiece “Mockingbird” remains, as Atticus always said to Scout when she was not quite up to snuff: “That’ll do.”
Concern
in some cases with much older partners. The worst myth, however, is that this only happens to “other people.” As you’ve now learned, few teens are magically disconnected from explicit online content. While some have no interest, others find it exciting, and to their way of thinking, safer than real-life sexual involvements. I’ve worked on this issue for many years, and Kyra and I can only scratch the surface in this column. I’m developing a book that specifically addresses this and many related issues. It’s called “Consent-Based Sex Education” and includes a lot of teen input. It will be out next year. Beyond seeing a well trained, sex-informed therapist, the best advice I can offer is to use our PLUS model: Pause, Listen, Understand, and be Sex Positive. My website (dr-wes.com) has several radio and TV programs addressing these very issues and discussing the model. It will help you respond calmly to your daughter’s situation and problematize it for your ex-husband so he realizes this cannot be ignored.

understand, she’ll be too far out of your sphere of influence to counter the real-life behaviors these posts could portend. Wes: Your daughter needs to be seeing a therapist trained up to the minute in sex therapy and sex education for teens. Many simply aren’t equipped to handle a case like this or they’re way behind the times, so shop wisely. There are a lot of dangerous myths surrounding this kind of thing. At the top of the list is the idea that the Internet is scary because of roving bands of sexual predators. But we cannot afford to buy into it, because it denies the real dynamic at play here. Predators exist, of course, but interactions with predators are not as common as teens voluntarily and enthusiastically playing online sex games. A few years ago, that was confined to known partners sending explicit pics. In the last couple of years it’s extended to a wider network of explicit chat rooms and picture exchanges. I hear about it every week now, either from those involved or those who know people who are involved. Another myth is that this is a problem of boys exploiting girls. That too happens, but that belief is for the most part outdated and sexist. Quite often, girls are pursuing sexual contacts just as you describe and

Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for seven years. She has a son from a previous marriage who got into drugs as a teen. Four years ago, my wife put her son in rehab, but he had a relapse and briefly ended up in prison. The effect it had on my wife was devastating and she began to drink. My dislike for her son increased exponentially. Last year, my wife put her son in rehab again, this time in another state. He finished the program, but while there, met another addict in a halfway house for sober living and she got pregnant. They married two weeks ago, and my wife returned from the wedding exuberant and giddy. She demanded that we al-

low the couple to live with us so she could give her son a second chance. I told her “no.” In response, she removed her wedding ring. My wife now plans to move out of state to live with the couple and take them out of the halfway house so she can care for the baby and rekindle her relationship with her son. I have spoken to numerous addiction
Country’s night of stars on ABC Little Big Town hosts the “CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night to Rock” (7 p.m., ABC), a three-hour recap of the four-day CMA Music Festival. ABC has broadcast all 11 of the festivals since 2004. O Nobody ever leaves the house — that’s the complaint many make about improbable horror movies. If it’s so scary in that spooky house, why don’t you flee? And how many primetime soaps have revolved around impossibly rich families that insist on having breakfast together? You’d think the ever-mingling generations of tycoons on “Dallas” and “Downton Abbey” would want some privacy. But then we wouldn’t have a show. The notion of family togetherness takes on a new claustrophobic twist on the reality show “It Takes a Sister” (8 p.m., Oxygen). Reality TV star Nikki Alexander shares her home with four of her younger siblings. Each woman is a single mother, so their shared eight children become part of the package. And let’s not forget three dogs and one of the sister’s exes, who happens to be Nikki’s personal trainer. He’s the only male in the picture, not counting the pets. O “West Texas Investors Club” (9 p.m., CNBC) follows self-made multimillionaires Rooster McConaughey and Butch Gilliam as they mentor up-and-coming entrepreneurs with their fledgling businesses. Participants must meet Rooster and Butch on their home turf and submit to scrutiny that transcends the ledger sheet. Apparently, these two judge potential partners as much on character as profit and loss. According to the network, “they won’t make a deal until they’ve peered into your heart and soul.” At first this series sounded a bit like “Shark Tank” in spurs. But perhaps there’s a little more going on. Tonight’s other highlights

experts and they all agree that the couple should remain where they are. My wife is defiant about it and has resolved to leave me. She thinks her son’s problems are all behind him now. I love my wife and don’t want to lose her. — Crestfallen Husband
downside of moving out of the halfway house too soon? If you cannot convince your wife to change her mind, and you want to stay married, we recommend that you be supportive. This could work out. Having a baby together might encourage the couple to be more committed to staying clean. Your wife’s assistance could allow them to find decent jobs. Tell her you are on her side and consider this a temporary separation. We hope it is.
Dear Crestfallen: Your wife is living in a fantasy, and her rushing in to take over her son’s life could undermine his recovery. But she believes she is helping and to some extent, that’s true. The problem is, her son needs to know that he can stand on his own feet first and he hasn’t completely done that. Would she speak to the addiction experts — Send questions to about this?

Dallas guard considers Kansas By Gary Bedore
KANSAS FOOTBALL
Catching on
Harrell made his mark in spring
gbedore@ljworld.com
Basketball notebook ... Terrance Ferguson, a 6-foot-6 high school senior shooting guard from Dallas who is expected to announce his college choice this month, will visit Alabama this weekend, according to Eric Bossi of Rivals.com. “He’ll likely follow that up with a trip to Kansas — where he has been unofficially — before making his choice,” Bossi writes of the country’s No. 11-rated player nationally. “Baylor may also get one more visit, but for now it is looking like the Crimson Tide and Jayhawks will be battling down the stretch to land arguably the best jump shooter in the class of 2016.” Ferguson, who played at Prime Prep last season, also is considering SMU, Texas, Louisville, North Carolina, Florida, Oklahoma State, Arizona, Arkansas, Texas A&M and others. It has not yet been revealed where he’ll be playing high school ball his senior season. “Something I can fit into and play my style. Just fit in,” Ferguson told Rivals. com, when asked what he’s looking for in a school. “And then the coaching staff, it brings all of it out of you so definitely that.” Entering Monday’s Adidas Nations global championship game, Ferguson averaged 16.0 points and 2.4 assists a game at the event in California. ESPN’s Jeff Borzello wrote this Monday about Ferguson’s newfound interest in Alabama. “Like Thon Maker and Arizona State, this is a relationship that has taken off since a coaching change. Avery Johnson took over for Anthony Grant in Tuscaloosa, and has prioritized the state of Texas as a potential recruiting battleground for the Crimson Tide because of his close ties throughout the high school and AAU scenes in the state. Ferguson is the crown jewel of Alabama’s targets, and Johnson made Ferguson his first in-home visit after taking the job. Kansas has been considered the favorite for Ferguson, but Alabama has made up a lot of ground and has a shot. This recruitment could end sooner rather than later, too.” For a video of a wild Ferguson dunk go to ljw.bz/1DoLNTX

KANSAS RECEIVER CHASE HARRELL PULLS IN A CATCH during spring practice in April. The freshman took advantage of early high school graduation to spend the spring gaining experience and confidence.
Year after year, with player after player, coaches consistently talk about what an advantage it is for prospects to graduate high school early and make it to their college campuses in time for spring football practices. For Kansas University freshman receiver Chase Harrell, that path paid major dividends this year, according to first-year KU coach David Beaty. “He matured so much from that spring,” Beaty said of the 6-foot-4, 200-pound Huffman, Texas, native. “It was amazing. Watching him grow from then to now, I gotta take my hat off to him because that was a hard spring. For a freshman. An early enrollee.” And it was laid out that way by design. From heavy workloads in the weight room with strength coach Je’Ney Jackson to intense onthe-field demands at practice that better resembled game week than a light runthrough five months before the season arrived, Beaty and company made everything as difficult as they could this spring. The goal was to establish the tone for what was to come. “I did not think he would be able to hold up to that standard,” Beaty said of Harrell. “But, man, he was phenomenal.” For a young player at a position where opportunities for playing time are wideopen, the confidence, mentality and maturity Harrell gained in April could serve him well in August. Beaty has not been shy about comparing Harrell to former Texas A&M standout and first-round NFL Draft pick Mike Evans. And he even Please see HARRELL, page 3D

Alkins list at 10: Rawle Alkins, a 6-foot-4 senior shooting guard from Brooklyn’s Christ the King High who is ranked No. 15 in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, has narrowed his list of schools to 10. They are: Kansas University, Louisville, Kentucky, North Carolina, Indiana, St. John’s, North Carolina State, Maryland, UNLV and Texas. “The bruising 6-foot-4 five-star shooting guard said he’s in no hurry to make another cut to his list or set official visits and that he could wait until spring to decide,” writes Bossi. Alkins averaged 20.8 points off 54.1 percent shooting (25 percent from three; 83.3 from line) entering the Adidas Nations global title game. He also dished 6.3 assists and grabbed an identical 6.3 rebounds per contest.
Royals, Blue Jays take feud to Twitter
Toronto (ap) — The Royals and Blue Jays have moved on: After an exchange of hit batters, they’re now trading barbs on Twitter. First, Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista posted a message Sunday night saying he had “lost a lot of respect” for Ned Yost after hearing the Royals manager praise home-plate umpire Jim Wolf’s handling of Sunday’s game. Two Blue Jays batters were hit by pitches, and reliever Aaron Sanchez was ejected for retaliating by hitting Kansas City infielder Alcides Escobar. That prompted Royals l pitcher Yordano Ventura to Gabriel emerges: We- post Tweets calling Bautista nyen Gabriel, a 6-9 senior a “nobody” and accuse him of stealing signs. Ventura Please see HOOPS, page 3D later deleted the messages.
Bautista took the high road when asked to respond to Ventura’s comments Monday. “He’s a young player that could use some maturing,” Bautista said. “Hopefully he focuses on playing the game and allowing his ability to create a name for himself.” Bautista didn’t back down from his remarks about Yost, calling the manager’s praise of Wolf “ridiculous.” Wold warned both benches after Royals pitcher Edinson Volquez hit Toronto’s Josh Donaldson in the first inning of Sunday’s game, a 5-2 Blue Jays win. Donaldson complained to Wolf after Volquez and

ROYALS
By George Diaz
Let’s all get rowdy. Ronda Rousey Rowdy. Wow. Amazing. Simply the most exhilarating athlete in the world. All you male chauvinists better calm down. This lady can put the hurt on you. Her last three fights in the Octagon have lasted an average of 21.33 seconds. Mic drop. Her dominance and worldwide interest isn’t a fad. Rousey has staying power for a lot of reasons beyond busting down all those dainty stereotypes about womenfolk. Check out the punches to the face and limb-crunching armbar. The lady packs a punch, coupled with a personality and a story of perseverance that resonates worldwide. Rousey lived in a 2005 Honda Accord LX when she returned from the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games after winning a bronze in judo. Her 15 minutes of fame lasted about 30 seconds. She was unable to pay the rent and a security deposit on an apartment. She recently sold her old car on eBay for $21,300, a very nice return on a car with over 150,000 miles and a bum transmission. That’s the star-power that Rousey brings. Her fan base stretches far beyond the millennials with their Instagram and Periscope accounts. Witness middle-aged guys like me — the cassette-tape generation — who stand in awe. Other baby boomers may remember a similar knockout artist who mesmerized the nation: Guy by the name of Mike Tyson. Iron Mike. Early on his career, long before Twitter and Facebook and You Tube gave everyone instant access, Tyson’s handlers did a very smart thing: Jimmy Jacobs and Cus D’Amato sent boxing reporters VHS highlights of Tyson’s early fights, many of them quick and efficient destruction of his opponents. People noticed, and the legend of Tyson grew exponentially with every fighter he dropped onto the canvas. Ronda Rousey is the Mike Tyson of this generation. She evokes awe, admiration, and not much ambivalence. You will likely love her, or hate her. “I’m the heel, I’m the antihero,” she said last year. “And I like it that way.” “I’m here with all my [bleeping] antagonists,” Tyson once told a small group of reporters who walked into his condo in Maui. I tried not to flinch. Neither wants to play nice. Much like Tyson, she isn’t going to engage all of her critics in conversation. Probably won’t even give it a quick thought, much like her fights. After knocking out Bethe Correia in just 34 seconds late Saturday night in Brazil, Rousey is 12-0. She has now won nine of her fights by armbar submission and three fights by KO/TKO. In a detailed blog breaking down the metrics, fivethirtyeight.com noted that Rousey has won her fights with 90 percent of the scheduled fight time remaining; only three of her fights have taken more than 66 seconds. Tyson stopped his first 19 opponents, 12 of them in the first round. Both elicit fear in opponents, the ultimate compliment for anyone competing in a blood sport. Rowdy Ronda Rousey is the new Iron Mike Tyson.

AS A STORM BREWS, THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS HOLD PRACTICE OUTSIDE Monday in St. Joseph, Missouri. After lightning threatened, the practice was moved inside Griffon Indoor Facility. Related story on page 3D.
NBC suspends practice after batboy dies Wichita — The National Baseball Congress has suspended using batboys and batgirls during its World Series games following the death of a 9-year-old boy who was accidentally hit in the head with a bat during a game. Kaiser Carlile died Sunday after he was hit by a follow-through swing near the ondeck circle during the Liberal Bee Jays’ game Saturday. The boy was wearing a helmet, The Wichita Eagle reported. The National Baseball Congress’ general manager, Kevin Jenks, said the decision to suspend the use of batboys and batgirls is “out of respect for the Bee Jays.” The organization planned to honor the boy at games Monday and today. Kaiser was a “kid, small in stature, who just wanted to be one of the guys,” said Mike Carlile, a member of the boy’s extended family and the Bee Jays’ general manager. He said Kaiser was eager to get to the ballpark every day and interact with the players, noting that they’d “kid each other, gig each other.” Kaiser lived in Liberal, a city in southwest Kansas along the Oklahoma boarder. The city of Wichita owns Lawrence-Dumont Stadium, where the accident took place, and is deciding whether to investigate. Ken Evans, the city’s strategic communications director, said it’s too early to decide. “I think we’re all kind of in shock at the moment with the rest of the community and focused on expressing our heartfelt sympathies for all the family and the friends, and the folks involved with the tournament,” Evans said. On Saturday, home-plate umpire and longtime paramedic Mark Goldfeder treated Kaiser until an ambulance arrived. The boy was hospitalized in critical condition, but he died Sunday, Carlile said. Kaiser’s parents met with the team’s players after their son died, and urged them to keep playing in the series, Carlile said. “We just lost a little, 9-year-old Bee Jay, and it’s incredibly sad,” Carlile said. “No one wrote us a book to tell us how to do this. We’re just dealing with it the best way we know how and that’s to keep coming out and keep honoring Kaiser on the field.” The Bee Jays went on to win a game Sunday night, advancing to the semifinals. “It is such an unfortunate accident, and all we can do is be strong for the family,” team manager Adam Anderson said. “That’s all they wanted us to do was go out there and play a good baseball game, and that’s what we did.”
WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
Illinois: Allegations unfounded Champaign, Ill. — Former University of Illinois women’s basketball players’ allegations of racially motivated mistreatment were unfounded, investigators hired by the school concluded in a report released Monday that also found that one former assistant coach “treated players harshly.” Seven former players sued the university, coach Matt Bollant, athletic director Mike Thomas and others on July 1, alleging Bollant and some other coaches used race to divide the team and drive players out. The players are seeking at least $10 million in damages. The report from Pugh, Jones & Johnson law firm in Chicago concluded complaints from players and parents started after a string of seven losses late in the 2014-15 season and included no real evidence of a racial divide. However, the report acknowledged former assistant coach Mike Divilbiss’ treatment of players was judged as harsh by some and recommended changes such as a code of conduct for coaches.
NFL
Bills coach relieved to return Pittsford, N.Y. — Bills offensive line coach Aaron Kromer was excited finally to join the team at training camp and grateful to the organization for allowing him to keep his job. Kromer spoke for only 48 seconds and did

not take any questions shortly before the Bills opened practice Monday night. It was Kromer’s first time back with the team since being placed on paid leave on July 14, two days after he was arrested and charged with battery for punching a boy in the face in Florida. The charges were dropped Friday, and Kromer was reinstated by the Bills on Sunday. Though Kromer retained his job, the Bills suspended him without pay for the first six games of the regular season for violating the NFL’s personal-conduct policy. “I’m sure everybody wants to hear about what happened over the last couple of weeks, and I’m not at liberty to talk about it,” Kromer said. “All I can say right now is that I’m excited about being back here working with the talent that we have on the offensive line and making them the best they can be this training camp, and getting them ready for the season.”
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Utah CB Hatfield charged Salt Lake City — Utah cornerback Dominique Hatfield has been charged with misdemeanor assault in a fight during a party last month, his second recent run-in with police. Salt Lake City detective Cody Lougy says neither a summons to appear nor a warrant has been issued, but the investigation is ongoing. A man told police he was attacked by four or five people during a party on July 5. Lougy says the man identified Hatfield and said other Utah athletes were at the party. The man was treated at the hospital for a cut on the nose, a bump on the head and bruises to the face and body. “I’m disappointed that they were filed,” said Greg Skordas, Hatfield’s lawyer. “We intend to address them immediately. I intend to get this case in front of a jury as soon as I can. I’m confident it’s going to go the same way as the last case that was brought against him.” Skoras said Hatfield contends he did not assault anyone, though he declined to say whether or not the ex-player was involved in the fight.
SWIMMING
KU’s Kuckharova near mark Kansas University swimmer Yulduz Kuckharova nearly matched her own Uzbekistani national record in the 100-meter backstroke prelims at the FINA World Championships in Kazan, Russia. Kuchkarova, swimming in the third of seven heats, swam a 1:02.80 to finish third in her heat and posted the 39th-fastest time in a morning session. Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu swim the fastest time in the world this year (58.78). Kuchkarova’s swim was nearly four-tenths of a second faster than her 1:03.18 posted at last year’s Asian Games and just 0.08 off the 1:02.67 she swam at the 2014 Speedo Sectionals in Columbia, Missouri.
TV
Ex-analyst sues Fox Sports Dallas — Former college football television analyst Craig James on Monday filed a religious discrimination lawsuit against Fox Sports that contends he was fired because he had expressed opposition to gay marriage during a failed run for the U.S. Senate. The former running back for Southern Methodist University and the New England Patriots is seeking at least $100,000 in damages. Fox hired him in August 2013 — months after he lost the Texas Senate primary to Ted Cruz — only to fire him days later. James filed his suit in Dallas County, where he is seeking a jury trial to hear claims against the network that include breach of contract and violations of state law. Fox Sports didn’t immediately respond to an email seeking comment Monday on the lawsuit, and a Dallas attorney for the network did not immediately return a call for comment.

Former Jayhawk Shepherd turns heads at Eagles camp By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

RUNNING BACK JAMAAL CHARLES (25) rests between plays during Chiefs training camp Monday in St. Joseph, Missouri.
Charles finally feeling healthy By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer
St. Joseph, Mo. — Jamaal Charles had holes in his shoes on the first day of training camp. The Chiefs running back was trying out a new pair, and they apparently were a bit tight in the toes. So Charles made incisions on each shoe that allowed his big toe to poke though. Entering his eighth year in the league, they might be the only holes in his game. Charles is coming off his third consecutive 1,000-yard season, despite battling nagging injuries all year. He also had at least 35 receptions for the third straight year, even though he was the constant focus of opposing defenses on a team with few offensive weapons. “It’s a compliment,” Charles said of the attention. “As long as I play in this league, and play on a high level, I always feel like a team is going to have to stop me. I feel like sometimes I’m the LeBron (James) of football, especially at my position, because I can do so much.” Provided Charles is healthy, of course. He missed most of the 2011 season after tearing his ACL, then dealt with one injury after another last season, even if he never let on to them. It began during the offseason program when he first picked up some bumps and bruises. It continued in training camp, when he bruised a foot while carrying a box out of Scanlon Hall when the team was wrapping up workouts at Missouri Western. And then when the season began, it seemed like just about

reliever Ryan Madson missed high and inside later in the game. Madson also hit Toronto’s Troy Tulowitzki. Neither pitcher was ejected. Volquez responded af-
every week there was a new ailment, some more serious than others. They never caused him to miss a game, but they certainly curtailed his production. He carried just seven times for 19 yards in the season opener against Tennessee, then carried twice for 4 yards the following week against Denver, when he had to leave with an ankle injury. “Last OTAs, I hurt my heel. I wasn’t showing anybody that I was hurt. Then I hurt myself before the preseason game. Then I got hurt in the second game. It was a struggle up and down,” he said, “right from the beginning of the season.” It certainly wasn’t the way Charles, a two-time All-Pro, intended to celebrate his two-year contract extension that will earn him an additional $18.1 million through the 2017 season. The Chiefs understand how important Charles is to a successful season. Nobody else on the roster can change a game as quickly. So to ensure he’s on the field late in the year, when Kansas City hopes to be in the playoff hunt, the teams’ brain trust spent much of the offseason dreaming up ways to keep him healthy, in training camp and beyond. “You want to make sure he is healthy late in the season,” offensive coordinator Doug Pederson said, “so if that means giving a guy like Knile Davis some reps — whatever you have to do, number one, to keep him healthy for 16 games, and you do that each week.” Pederson said one of the biggest challenges is noticing when Charles is operating at less than 100 percent.
ter the game by calling Donaldson “a little baby.” Wolf ejected Sanchez after Escobar was hit on the thigh in the eighth, causing both benches and both bullpens to empty. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons, who had been ejected earlier for arguing with Wolf, returned to the field for the melee. No punches were thrown.
He has only been playing the position for a few years, but former Kansas University standout JaCorey Shepherd might already have positioned himself to become a starting cornerback in the NFL. Drafted in the sixth round last May by Philadelphia, Shepherd consistently has impressed the Eagles coaches throughout the spring and summer and appears to be in line to get the first crack at the team’s starting nickel-back position heading into the 2015 season. “He’s explosive,” Eagles coach Chip Kelly told CSNPhilly.com. “He’s got great ball skills. Really quick in and out of cuts. He seems like he’s got a real knack to being around the ball all the time. Showed up a lot when you turn the tape on.” That was exactly what Shepherd was banking on throughout the winter and spring as he prepared for the NFL Draft. Plagued by an injured hamstring that kept him out of action at the combine in February, Shepherd did what he could during workouts with scouts and quietly hoped that what he put on film against some of the best passing offenses in the country last season would be enough to entice a team to pick him. Philadelphia was that team, but Shepherd and
Harrell CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D
took the comparison a step further recently when talking about Harrell at Big 12 media days in Dallas. “He’s good,” Beaty said. “The dude’s 6-4, 200 pounds. He runs well. His ceiling is off the charts. That dude right there is what Mike Evans looked like. But he is, right now, more developed than Mike Evans was at that age.” Praise like that would lead anyone to believe that Harrell would have an automatic spot in the Jayhawks’ lineup this fall. And based on his head start and raw skills, that certainly seems likely. But it is far from a given. And now that three other freshmen receivers have been added to the mix, Harrell will have to beat

EAGLES CORNERBACKS JACOREY SHEPHERD AND JAYLEN WATKINS (37) run drills during training camp on Sunday in Philadelphia. Shepherd, a rookie from Kansas University, has earned high praise from Eagles coach Chip Kelly. others admitted they were surprised it took until the sixth round. “We were kind of holding our breath,” Kelly admitted. “But he was a guy we had targeted, and we were excited when he was still there in the sixth and we had a chance to get him.” As with any rookie, a big part of getting onto the field early includes catching a break or two. Shepherd got his break recently, when the Eagles traded likely starting nickel back Brandon Boykin to Pittsburgh. That opened the door for Shepherd to begin taking first-team reps at
the position, but it’s fair to say that Shepherd’s performance throughout the summer might have had something to do with Philly feeling safe to shop Boykin. Don’t expect the suddenly shimmering opportunity to change a thing about the way Shepherd approaches his new job. “I’m still learning,” Shepherd said after a recent practice. “Guys are already ahead of me. If I’m going to mess up, I’m going to mess up full speed. But like I said, I learn real fast. So I would rather mess up early so then by the time game
time comes I know my mistakes and I’m prepared for it.” Added Eagles safety Malcom Jenkins, a seven-year pro out of Ohio State: “The biggest thing with him, he’s been hungry. He’s pulled me aside, he’s pulled coaches aside to do extra stuff, to get into the film room and learn it. He’s not afraid of being out there. Very, very confident, and he has the physical attributes to really be successful in the slot, and he’s smart enough to learn it. So we’re looking forward to seeing that development in the next few weeks.”
out more than just the guys he competed with this spring. “I expect him to earn it,” said Beaty, repeating KU’s unofficial slogan for the 2015 season. “If he does it, he’ll do it. If he doesn’t, he won’t. And he’s gonna have to show us that he’s better than the other guys. ... But he’s worked his tail off.”
KU’s assistant coaches talking at least once. KU’s preseason camp will cover 21 practices and run through Aug. 27. After that, the Jayhawks will begin preparations for the Sept. 5 season opener against South Dakota State at Memorial Stadium.
Key camp dates The Jayhawks will report to preseason camp Wednesday and begin official practices for the season Thursday. KU then will go Friday, Saturday and Monday before jumping into a full-pads workout on Aug. 11 and the first two-a-day practices on Aug. 12. KU’s official Media Day is set for Saturday, but Beaty has set up a favorable schedule for access for the rest of the month, with every position group getting its day with the media and all of
King to Denver? The Denver Broncos may be looking to add another former Kansas football player to the three they already have on their roster. According to Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports, the Broncos recently hosted wide receiver Nigel King for a workout. Denver has a roster spot available after fifth-year pro Kyle Williams suffered a season-ending injury during a recent practice. King worked out with Denver on Sunday but was not offered a contract, according to Cameron Wolfe of The Den-
ver Post, who cited an NFL source as the place he learned that King had not signed with the Broncos. King, a 6-foot-3, 210-pound wideout with good speed and hands who transferred to KU from Maryland for the 2014 season, finished last season with 537 yards and a touchdown on 30 receptions in 12 games and elected to forgo his final season of eligibility to enter the NFL. He went undrafted last April and initially got a tryout with the Miami Dolphins following the draft. King, who spent the first few years of his college career at Maryland, was waived by Miami just last week. Should he somehow wind up with the Broncos, King would join cornerbacks Chris Harris and Aqib Talib and linebacker Steven Johnson as the Jayhawks on Denver’s roster.
and North Carolina, is also considering Duke, Maryland, UConn, Texas, Virginia, Notre Dame and many others. “There aren’t many prospects in the class of 2016 who are hotter with college coaches than the 6-foot-9 combo forward who currently ranks No. 84 in the Rivals150,” writes Bossi. “The word ‘currently’ is the key here because when rankings get redone after the summer Gabriel is going to make a massive jump and may even be a candidate for five-star status.”
Bossi also said at a recent adidas tourney he “was active, showed skill and played with a tremendous motor. He’s pretty skinny, but he doesn’t fear contact and is extremely bright, humble and down-to-earth.” Gabriel is quite interested in KU. “Obviously, Kansas is one of the premier programs in college basketball,” Gabriel told Jayhawkslant.com. “Everybody knows about Kansas, so the offer was real exciting. It’s still hard for me to believe
that all of this is really happening. “A lot of people hear that I was a Duke fan growing up and think that I’m automatically going to Duke, but you know, that’s not the case,” Gabriel added. “Obviously, I’m still looking for the best fit for me. I was just a fan and I liked watching Duke growing up, but I’m still open in my recruitment. There is obviously a high chance that I’ll visit Kansas.” Gabriel told Jayhawkslant.com he may take all five official visits before making a decision.
