shooting for something next-level. KU, according to information technology leaders, plans to light up 100-gigabit Internet on campus by mid-2016. Though the speeds don’t trickle down to every desk within, KU has had 1-gigabit Internet connections to all its buildings except residence halls for several years, said KU Chief Information Officer Bob Lim. It’s had 10-gigabit connections in at least eight buildings since 2014, including Learned, Lindley and several West Campus labs. However researchers at KU, like other major research universities, are dealing with increasingly large data sets that they say require increasingly faster Internet speeds to do anything with. “When I started, I said 1 gigabit is not enough. Now we’re getting 10, and we can move things. But 10 is not enough,” RosaMolinar said. “The explosion in technology and the way that we prepare things for that technology is what’s allowing the acquisition of big-image data, and that is going to require the infrastructure to move it.”

Bit by bit Even though KU has 1and 10-gigabit capacity to buildings, access within the buildings is patchy. KU is installing infrastructure needed for those

speeds to reach more workstations as time and funds allow, said Eric Freeze, deputy technology officer for KU IT. New buildings are being constructed with the infrastructure already built in — Capitol Federal Hall, for example, will have multiple 10-gigabit uplinks when it opens next year, Day said. For old buildings, the process requires retrofitting cabling and equipment, which is more timeconsuming and costly, he said. There are more than 200 buildings on the Lawrence campus. KU is prioritizing deployment based on need, and the labs of researchers who rely on big data are prime candidates, Freeze said. Here’s Lim’s case for bringing the 100-gigabit Internet to researchers: “If you don’t have the ability for people to communicate with each other and not be limited by how the data is being transferred back and forth, you can’t grow. You can’t be innovative. You can’t solve today’s problems. You can’t solve tomorrow’s problems. You can’t cure cancer. It is what we call core technology.” Planning for 100-gigabit is still in early stages. Lim said KU IT wasn’t ready to release a budget for the project or answer exactly how many locations would get 100-gigabit service, and when.

he told them, which weren’t your average children’s fairy tales. Zach noted specifically the time his father told him about Henry “Box” Brown, the real-life story of a slave who escaped by enclosing himself in a wooden crate and mailing himself to freedom. “He must have been a good teacher, because I never forgot that,” Zach added. Arna, meanwhile, remembered his father sharing an exciting adventure story — about a man on an ocean voyage, battling monsters — with a group of Cub Scouts. Arna remembered it well enough, in fact, that when he took a literature class years later, he recognized his father’s story as none other than Homer’s Odyssey. But despite all the lessons growing up, Arna explained, it was the example his father set for him — in his work but also as a father and a husband — that was the most important. “Perhaps the greatest thing I ever learned from my dad is how to make a life,” Arna told the crowd. Hemenway is survived by his wife of 34 years, Leah, their eight children and 12 grandchildren.

chancellor, serving from 1995 to 2009. The list of his accomplishments while chancellor is long, including his priorities of gaining National Cancer Institute Designation for KU Medical Center, supporting faculty research and increasing women and minority faculty members. But for all the time Hemenway’s commitment to KU must have demanded, it doesn’t seem that he ever stopped being what he was at his core: a teacher. Hemenway was a “teaching chancellor,” Chancellor Emeritus Del Shankel told the audience of more than 200 attendees. Shankel recalled how Hemenway, a former English professor, continued to teach 7:30 a.m. English and American Studies courses at KU throughout his tenure as chancellor. Shankel noted Hemenway’s research on Harlem Renaissance author Zora Neale Hurston and his subsequent book, “Zora Neale Hurston: A Literary Biography,” which many credit with helping spark a national resurgence in Hurston studies. Hemenway’s role as a teacher extended beyond the professional sphere of his life. His son Arna Hemenway told of the

time when as a child he took a screwdriver down to the basement and removed all the outlet covers. In response, Arna recalled, his father taught him about electricity — how it worked and why it was dangerous. “He didn’t yell at me,” Arna said. “Instead he sat with me and told me a story.” Hemenway’s son Zach Hemenway recounted similar experiences with his father. Zach told of the time when as a student at KU, he accidentally left a copy of a 20-page term paper he was writing for a literature course in the printer of his father’s office. His father called him, Zach recalled, not just to say that he had read it, but to offer a full set of detailed notes of how his son could improve it, along with suggestions of other sources he might look into. “I just imagine him noticing something in the printer when he got home in the evening and taking the time to read 20 pages before he goes to bed,” Zach said. Such tireless curiosity and attention to detail typified Hemenway’s legacy at KU, which included notable increases in overall enrollment and university fundraising, as well as capital improvements at the Lawrence and Edwards campuses and KU Med. Hemenway’s sons also reflected on the stories

eral KU facilities at other locations around town. But even though some of that fiber runs beneath Lawrence homes and businesses, KU’s highspeed Internet is not up for grabs outside the KU community. Those speeds are being delivered to KU through a special provider just for schools, the Kansas Research and Education Network, or KanREN. Freeze said KanREN is the same network used to deliver 1- and 10-gigabit Internet to other Kansas Board of Regents universities. The city of Lawrence is working with other Internet providers to bring 1-gigabit service to offcampus Lawrencians. Lawrence now has a ring around the city of what’s called dark fiber, said Brandon McGuire, assistant to the city manager. The fiber is capable of and ready to deliver high-speed Internet but isn’t “lit up” yet, or put into use. It requires a provider to, basically, sign on, extend infrastructure from the ring to homes and businesses, then turn on the high-speed service. There are a few businesses working on that. In recent weeks, RG Fiber signed a dark fiber lease agreement with the city with plans to extend 1-gigabit service to neighborhoods and businesses, McGuire said. A few weeks earlier, Kansas Fiber Network also signed a lease agreement to use the city of Lawrence’s dark fiber to extend highspeed service. He said Wicked Broad-

designation that has been in the news recently following the July 1 slaying of a woman in San Francisco by an alleged illegal immigrant with a felony record. San Francisco has a 1989 law — originally inspired by Central American refugees fleeing violence in their home countries — called the City and County of Refuge ordinance, which prohibits city employees, including law enforcement, from helping federal immigration enforcement efforts unless compelled by court order or state law. The “Welcoming City” proclamation here has no such purpose, officials emphasized. The full text of the proclamation can be found online at lawrenceks.org. The city’s proclamation was made by Mayor

Jeremy Farmer on July 28 at the request of Angela Ferguson, an immigration lawyer from Kansas City, Mo., said Megan Gilliland, the city communications manager. Ferguson said the requests did not come about because Lawrence and Douglas County are seen as unwelcoming communities; rather, she is continuing the work of two immigrant advocacy organizations, Welcoming America and the Advocates for Immigrant Rights and Reconciliation. “We think it’s important to get cities and counties to recognize the contributions of immigrants,” she said. “And the city of Lawrence agreed to do it, and the county is doing it.” Ferguson said she and other activists have also reached out to other cities in Kansas. Leavenworth and Olathe made similar proclamations in years past, and Hutchinson has been receptive to the request, she said.

after mixing to allow moisture to be thoroughly absorbed. Add additional water if necessary. Step 5: Properly assemble the texture spray gun and hopper. Set the gun opening to a mid-sized hole and fill the hopper about 2/3 full of texture mix. Step 6: Point the gun at a section of cardboard or a plastic covered vertical surface and test the spray pattern. Adjust the air flow to create the desired

effect. Increased pressure creates smaller splatters and decreased pressure creates larger splatters. Step 7: When the desired splatter size has been determined and a practice swatch has been sprayed, hold the gun 15 to 18 inches from the wall and start spraying in a circular and somewhat random pattern. Avoid spraying too much or too little texture in any one area and keep moving at all

Ferguson has the impression that Kansas as a whole had a less-thanwelcoming atmosphere for recent immigrants. “I think it’s very welcoming there,” she said of Lawrence and Douglas County. “It’s the state we have a problem with.” Ferguson said two representatives of the Mexican Consulate in Kansas City, Mo., were present for the city’s proclamation in July. “They’ve been very supportive of this work across the United States,” she said. Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug confirmed that the county plans to follow in the city’s footsteps this week. Weinaug said the county plans to use the same proclamation as the city, reworded to fit Douglas County. He said the proclamation will not make the county a safe haven for illegal immigrants. “It’s just affirming that we like you even if you

Kristen Dymacek, a spokeswoman for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, agreed with Weinaug, reiterating that Douglas County is not a sanctuary county for illegal immigrants. Generally when deputies locate anyone who is not living in the country legally they will contact the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Dymacek said. If the person has not committed a crime, deputies can’t hold that person, but they do notify DHS and ICE, she said. If the person has committed a crime, he or she can be arrested, booked into jail and charged for that crime, Dymacek said. At that point deputies contact DHS and ICE, but the suspect is still allowed to post bond. “Basically what we have to have in order to hold somebody is some sort of court order or hold request,

After 20 years in Bloom, bath store closing shop Town Talk P erhaps you don’t know it, Lawrence, but for the last 20 years you’ve been influencing how people across the country take baths. Yeah, now that I say that, it does sound creepy. But don’t worry, it is all fine, and it is also almost all over. Bloom, the bath and body store at 704 Massachusetts St., is closing after 20 years in business. That’s notable in itself, but, come to find out, Bloom is more than just a little retail shop that you go to for bath products to get marinara sauce out of your beard. (The shop is right above Rudy’s Pizzeria, so I assume it gets the marinara question frequently.) Bloom also has been the test market store for a set of multimillion dollar bath and body brands that are manufactured in Colorado. “Lawrence has definitely been where we test ideas,” said Lisa Sanders, manager of the Lawrence store. “It is interesting because what is popular in Lawrence doesn’t always end up being popular nationwide. Lawrence is pretty unique.” But the company’s founders have their roots in the area. They are Baker University graduates, and Sanders is a longtime friend who has run the Lawrence store for the last 15 years. But Sanders said she has decided to take another career opportunity in the Kansas City area, and the business’ owners decided that was probably a good time to close the store. Sanders said a date

Bird ban a bummer to some Kansas county fair families SALINA (ap) — If Cruella, Ursula and Maleficent could chirp in English, they might be celebrating missing this year’s Tri-Rivers Fair in Salina. But their human handlers — the Farhentholds — are bummed that a year’s toils can’t be put on display, the Salina Journal reported. Katrina Fahrenthold, 12, “was pretty sad” when she learned that birds are banned this year, said her mother, Lindi Fahrenthold. “This takes out some of the excitement,” Lindi said. “My kids really look forward to it.” They’ve known since early June that the Kansas Department of Agriculture banned poultry shows, including county and state fairs, swap meets, sales, auctions and other activities where flocks of birds might gather, to prevent the spread of H5N2 avian influenza. A few cases of that strain of bird flu have surfaced in Kansas and other states, said Carl Garten, Extension director for Saline and Ottawa counties. The Tri-Rivers Fair will be feather-free. Lindi Fahrenthold guessed the chickens, pigeons, guinea fowl and ducks that her family have exhibited over the years “would rather stay home where they aren’t cooped up in a cage.” Same goes in the Jason and Kris Bell family near Brookville, where the best

of 352 ducks, chickens, geese, quail and guineas were put on display every year at the fair. “I’m very disappointed, because it’s a lot of hard work to raise and take care of the birds and not be able to to show ’em,” Blake Bell said. “It’s really made our fair pretty lonesome,” Jason Bell said. He and his wife, Kris, showed many forms of livestock when they were youngsters; now their sons, Jake Funk, 16, Blake, 14, and Colton Bell, 12, are continuing as a “diehard 4-H family,” he said. The Bells are common winners in poultry at the fair, Blake said. “The best we’ve ever done at the county fair is win every class, and the best at the state fair was to win half the classes and the overall grand champion,” he said. The fair families were understanding about the ban this year, Garten said. “There wasn’t anything we could do about it,” he said. “If I bring my birds and they get the flu and I have to destroy them all, maybe it’s not worth it.” The Bells and Fahrentholds know what to look for in their flocks, such as birds displaying lethargy and having respiratory problems. So far, there have been no symptoms. “You would have them checked out,” Lindi Fahr-

enthold said. “If they did (have avian flu), I’m pretty sure you’d have to destroy the whole flock. We would not want to spread the disease any further.” The Bells will take poultry and waterfowl notebooks, posters, displays and showmanship videos to the state fair next month. They will show other animals at the Tri-Rivers Fair. “Colton loves swine. Jake shows cattle and decided he wants to show lambs this year. Blake will be showing breeding heifers and dairy heifers. They do a really good job at it. We either do it right or we don’t do it at all,” Jason Bell said. “This stuff will help them get through it.” The Fahrenthold family has been showing birds in the open and 4-H classes at the Tri-Rivers Fair since Hannah began in 2002. Lindi is a stay-at-home mom, and her husband, Scott Fahrenthold, is an independent insurance salesman in Salina. “My older sister, Rachel (now 25) showed horses, and I loved birds, so chickens were the natural thing to get,” Hannah said. Jessica, 19, and Katrina will show rabbits, and Katrina will also do crafts and foods. She won a purple ribbon for her poultry showmanship video at the Ottawa County Fair in Minneapolis. “We like a variety,” their mother said.

Important role State regulators play a key role in protecting the interests of electricity consumers in Kansas.

ustomers of Wester Energy Inc., the state’s largest electric company, probably are pleased but maybe a little puzzled by the rate compromise announced last week by Westar, the Kansas Corporation Commission and the Citizens’ Utility Ratepayers Board. The electric company initially had sought to increase its rates enough to bring in an additional $152 million a year but now has decided it can settle for an overall increase about half that big: $78 million. That’s more than the $56 million increase favored initially by CURB and the KCC, but represented what CURB’s chief attorney called “a pretty decent deal” for Kansas customers. The difference between what Westar started out asking for and what it eventually found acceptable may raise some eyebrows. The company said it needed $152 million to cover its costs for work that already has been completed at the LaCygne and Wolf Creek power plants and to provide $220 million over the next five years for upgrades to its electrical grid. However, at the end of the negotiations, Westar said the $78 million still would allow it to recover the power plant costs and to invest about $50 million in the grid. So, how much was Westar padding its request? Over five years, the $152 million increase would have amounted to $760 million in additional funds, compared to the $390 million provided by the $78 million increase. That’s a difference of $370 million, and yet the company said it would only have to reduce the amount going to grid improvements by about $170 million. Where was the other $200 million going? A lot of that $40 million per year probably would have gone into shareholders pockets. Westar reported total earnings of $313 million ($2.40 per share) last year, up from $293 million ($2.29 per share) in 2013. The rate compromise still must receive final approval from the KCC, but the tentative agreement points out the important role that the KCC and CURB play in protecting the interests of utility consumers in the state. To stay in business, companies like Westar need to be allowed to recover their costs and provide a reasonable return to their investors. It’s in the company’s interest to maximize its profits, but it’s the responsibility of the KCC to make sure the company isn’t reaping unreasonable profits through unreasonably high electrical rates. Most Kansans probably don’t know much about the KCC and CURB, but the Westar “compromise” announced last week perhaps should trigger a greater appreciation for the role those agencies play.

History can set record straight Washington — History books can be historic events, making history by ending important arguments. They can make it impossible for any intellectually honest person to assert certain propositions that once enjoyed considerable currency among people purporting to care about evidence. The author of one such book, Robert Conquest, an Englishman who spent many years at Stanford’s Hoover Institution, has died at 98, having outlived the Soviet Union that he helped to kill with information. Historian, poet, journalist and indefatigable controversialist, Conquest was born when Soviet Russia was, in 1917, and in early adulthood he was a communist. Then, combining a convert’s zeal and a scholar’s meticulousness, he demolished the doctrine that the Soviet regime was a recognizable variant of the European experience and destined to “convergence” toward Western norms. Books do not win wars, hot or cold, but they can help to sustain the will to win protracted conflict, producing clarity about the nature of an evil adversary. In 1968, five years before the first volume of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s “The Gulag Archipelago” was published in the West, Conquest published “The Great Terror,” a history of Josef Stalin’s purges during the 1930s. In one episode, which could have come from Arthur Koestler’s classic 1941 novel “Darkness at Noon,” Conquest recounted a conversation

“

Books do not win wars, hot or cold, but they can help to sustain the will to win protracted conflict, producing clarity about the nature of an evil adversary.” between Stalin and an aide named Mironov, who was failing to extract a confession — to a political crime — from a prisoner named Kamenev: “‘Do you know how much our state weighs, with all the factories, machines, the army, with all the armaments and the navy?’ “Mironov and all those present looked at Stalin with surprise. “‘Think it over and tell me,’ demanded Stalin. Mironov smiled, believing that Stalin was getting ready to crack a joke. But Stalin did not intend to jest. ... ‘I’m asking you, how much does all that weigh?’ he insisted. “Mironov was confused. He waited, still hoping Stalin would turn everything into a joke. ... Mironov ... said in an irresolute voice, ‘Nobody can know that. ... It is in the realm of astronomi-

cal figures.’ “‘Well, and can one man withstand the pressure of that astronomical weight?’ asked Stalin sternly. “‘No,’ answered Mironov. “‘Now then, don’t tell me any more that Kamenev, or this or that prisoner, is able to withstand that pressure. Don’t come to report to me,’ said Stalin to Mironov, ‘until you have in this briefcase the confession of Kamenev!’” In 1968, Conquest’s mountain of evidence of the diabolical dynamics of the Soviet regime disquieted those, and they were legion, who suggested a moral equivalence between the main adversaries in the Cold War, which, they argued, had been precipitated by U.S. actions. In 1986, Conquest published “The Harvest of Sorrow: Soviet Collectivization and the Terror-Famine,” his unsparing account of the deliberate starvation of Ukraine in 1932 and 1933, which killed, at a minimum, 7 million people, more than half of them children. At one point, more Ukrainians were dying each day than Jews were to be murdered at Auschwitz at the peak of extermination in the spring of 1944. Conquest’s work is pertinent to understanding Vladimir Putin’s Russia. Conquest’s thesis was not that Soviet leaders studied Lenin’s turgid writings but that they were thoroughly marinated in the morals of the regime Lenin founded and that produced the repression machinery that produced Putin.

Conquest’s death follows that in June of another servant of intellectual integrity, Allen Weinstein. In 1978, the 30-year war against the truth waged by Alger Hiss, the U.S. diplomat and traitor, was ended when Weinstein published “Perjury: The HissChambers Case.” This definitively dismantled the edifice of mendacity that Hiss and his supporters had erected to assert the injustice of his imprisonment for perjury — for lying about his espionage for the Soviets. Hiss still has a ragtag remnant of defenders, historical illiterates who are disproportionately academics. They often are the last to learn things because they have gone to earth in the groves of academe in order to live in an alternative reality. Conquest lived to see a current U.S. presidential candidate, a senator, who had chosen, surely as an ideological gesture, to spend his honeymoon in the Soviet Union in 1988. Gulags still functioned, probably including some of the “cold Auschwitzes” in Siberia, described in Conquest’s “Kolyma.” The honeymooner did not mind that in 1988 political prisoners were — as may still be the case — being tortured in psychiatric “hospitals.” Thanks to the unblinking honesty of people like Conquest, the Soviet Union now is such a receding memory that Bernie Sanders’ moral obtuseness — the obverse of Conquest’s character — is considered an amusing eccentricity. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

Teachers are key to education progress By Gene Budig and Alan Heaps

It’s the onset of fall and that means, as it does every year, that school is about to start. This is a process we take for granted. Because we take if for granted, we underestimate its complexity. But the sheer size of the undertaking is mindboggling. Here in the United States, our K-12 public school system involves 50 million students, 100,000 public schools in 14,000 school districts, 3.1 million teachers and $620 billion of expenditures. And in this huge system, what inschool factor has the greatest impact on student performance? It’s far and away the teacher. According to a Rand Institute study, “a teacher is estimated to have two to three times the impact of any other school factor, including services, facilities, and even leadership.” Given the importance of teachers to our students, schools and society, one would assume that we would take good the prudent route: care for our teachers, and by doing so, care for ourselves. But this is not the case. As in all education research, different studies paint different pictures. But when it comes to teacher satisfaction with their jobs, there are some ominous sets of data. l According to the 2013 Global Teacher Status Index, which measures “the level of respect for teachers in different countries and of their social standing” in 22 countries, the USA ranks ninth. l According to the Organization for Economic Development, teacher salaries

rank 12th out of thirty countries. The same report tells us that the teacher-to-student ratio in the USA is higher than in most other countries. l According to a recent Gallup poll, the percent of teach- Budig ers who “feel a lot of daily stress” in their jobs is almost 50 percent, equal to doctors and nurses. The same report says only 30 percent are engaged in their job. l According to a recent Consortium Heaps for Policy Research in Education report, approximately one third of teachers leave the profession after six years, a slightly higher percent than those who leave the police force. l According to a recent Gates Foundation/Scholastic poll, 47 percent of teachers disagree strongly/disagree somewhat that “students enter my classroom prepared for on-grade-level work.” l According to Department of Education data, enrollment in teacher preparation programs dropped by 10 percent from 2004 to 2012. Teacher dissatisfaction and disenfranchisement is neither a secret nor a new topic. It has been the subject of discussion for some time and a series of remedies have been suggested and/ or implemented including, but not limited to, salary increases, loan forgive-

ness, better professional development, mentors, more time for collaboration, and increased say in school and education policies. But the results simply are not there. According to the 2014 Met Life Survey of the American Teacher, teacher satisfaction rates declined to 30 percent, a 23 percent drop since 2008. Suggestions: l Remind teachers that the vast majority of citizens respect them and what they do. l Most people realize the vital and fundamental importance of their work with young people. l It is time to mobilize public support for equitable teacher salaries. l The public must insist on better rewards for the productive teacher. l The schools must provide better technology to help assure readiness for entry level jobs. l There should be stronger ties between elementary and secondary education and the community colleges. The president of the United States and most progressive governors and business leaders believe community colleges, with the united support of public education, can address much the employment issue and help return viability to the middle class. The clock is ticking on many fronts, but all of them necessitate positive action by teachers. — Gene Budig is the past chancellor/president of three major state universities, including Kansas University, and of Major League Baseball’s American League. Alan Heaps is a former vice president of the College Board and a recognized researcher of educational issues.

the table.” After the screenings the first day of surgical work yielded a grand total of three completed patients for a surgery that should typically take between 15 and 20 minutes, Hickman said. The last day of surgery yielded more than 30. “There were 107 patients that had their eyesight restored, and I couldn’t say more wonderful things about it,” Aviolo said. “Scott was an absolute joy to be around.” While his next trip is scheduled in March to Kolkata in India, Hickman said he wants to work his way up to two or three trips a year. Eventually the goal is to find a surgeon with ‘good hands,’ someone he can teach and who can continue giving sight to the blind in his absence. “I’d like to be able to find an ophthalmologist, like in Africa, that you can teach how to do the surgery. Teach them how to do it safely and how to make a living off it. How to charge the people who can pay and not the people who can’t, so they can become self-sufficient,” Hickman said. Each time Hickman travels abroad, his wife, Ayako, who is “relentlessly supportive” picks up the slack on the home front, White said. The couple have three children, ranging in age from 4 to 9. “Behind every person who has a family that does this kind of work is someone else at home who is working harder because they’re out in the field,” he said. Along with the support of his family, Hickman said much of his motivation to work abroad comes from the experience itself and a desire to help his fellow man. “I grew up in Lawrence, and once in a while I want to get out and do something else. It’s an adventure,” he said. “And some of it is trying to do good things, trying to be a better person.” Discussing his set of skills, humanity and attitude in the face of adversity, Aviolo said he has no doubt Hickman has much to offer the world, whether he’s operating in Lawrence or in a far-flung land. “When all the equipment broke and staff at the hospital, although incredible people, hadn’t done these types of surgeries before... I don’t know,” he said. “But I really believe that the team looked at this as their own little Apollo 13 moment and said ‘I think this can be our finest hour.’” — Reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at cswanson@ljworld.com or 832-7144.

about his attack on Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly. Instead, the celebrity billionaire insisted in a string of Sunday TV interviews that he had done nothing wrong, that “only a deviant” would interpret his words in an offensive way, and that he is leaving open the possibility of running an independent campaign for the White House if the GOP doesn’t treat him “fairly.” “I do have leverage, and I like having leverage,” Trump declared on CBS’ Face the Nation on a

Donald Trump again has come under a crush of criticism for his comments.

morning that also included interviews with ABC’s This Week, CNN’s State of the Union and NBC’s Meet the Press. Some Republicans are hoping his meteoric rise may be peaking, in part because of his refusal to promise to support the Republican nominee in the general election if it’s not him. Opponents also have focused on his past support of liberal policies and contributions to Democratic candidates, including likely 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton.

His latest comments — widely interpreted as attributing Kelly’s tough questioning in Thursday’s debate to female hormones — were “completely beyond the pale,” said Republican strategist Liz Mair, who attended the conservative Red State Gathering in Atlanta over the weekend. She said an increasing number of Republicans have soured on Trump. “Hopefully, we’re at the point where he is only hurting himself.” v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

TERRY BYRNE AND VERONICA BRAVO, USA TODAY

FERGUSON, MO. Hundreds gathered Sunday at the spot where Michael Brown was killed by a white police officer to mark the first anniversary of the shooting that rocked the nation and shined a spotlight on race relations. Brown’s father, Michael Brown Sr., shared a few words during a silent march to thank those who stood by him since his 18-year-old son was killed. “You made this happen for us,” Brown said, explaining that his son’s name and case gained notoriety because thousands supported the family by protesting. “I miss you boy,” the father said. Erica Snipes is the daughter of Eric Garner, an unarmed black man who died in New York after an officer put him in a chokehold, She told the crowd that officials must be held accountable. “This year has just been so hard — no accountability, no justice — police are still killing us,” Snipes said. Rows of teddy bears, flowers and balloons sat in the middle of the road as a growing open air

ONE YEAR LATER, ‘POLICE ARE STILL KILLING US’

Hundreds marched in silence Sunday in memory of Michael Brown to reflect on year memorial to the younger Brown. A more permanent memorial — an image of a dove carved into a cement sidewalk — was nearby. At 12:02 p.m., a 4 1/2-minute moment of silence represented the time Wilson shot Brown and the length of time his lifeless body lay in the street. Brown’s father then led a march to nearby Greater St. Mark Family Church. Along the way, at the corner of Chambers Road and West Florissant Avenue, Brown and hundreds of marchers stopped for another 4 1/2 minutes to remember Brown’s son. “This is sponsored by Darren

Wilson,” said Anthony Shahid, a community activist, referring to the Ferguson police officer who had shot the teen. The elder Brown and some supporters wore “Chosen 4 Change” shirts, a reference to the nonprofit foundation he helped start. Signs in the crowd included “Racism is destroying Amerikkka” and “Stop killing black children” and “Respect and protect the black woman.” Across Ferguson, police increased their presence and handed out water to marchers. Police vehicles were parked outside businesses looted during the un-

rest that followed Brown’s death. Brown was unarmed when Wilson pulled up in a cruiser and told Brown and a friend not to walk in the street. An argument ensued, spilling into a physical confrontation. Wilson said Brown attempted to take Wilson’s gun. Moments later Brown was fatally shot. Months of sometimes violent protests followed. A grand jury and the Justice Department cleared Wilson of wrongdoing. But the Justice Department also issued a scathing, 102-page report, made public in March, that details how racial biases permeated the city’s police and justice system. The revelations prompted the resignations of the city’s police chief and a local judge. Shirley McClendon, 72, said she came to Sunday’s march to support the teen’s family and to call attention to ongoing issues of racial profiling and police brutality. “What they did to this kid was unfair,” she said of Brown’s death. “The police are getting out of hand. They are just running rampant. It’s like they are the criminals.”

Taliban attack claims rare U.S. casualty in Afghanistan

Second U.S. soldier killed this year Tom Vanden Brook USA TODAY

An attack on a NATO base in Kabul last week killed an Army Green Beret, only the second combat death of a U.S. servicemember in Afghanistan this year. The Pentagon on Sunday identified the soldier as Master Sgt. Peter McKenna Jr., 35, of Bristol, R.I. He died Aug. 8, in Kabul after militants attacked Camp IntegriWASHINGTON

ty, near the airport. McKenna was assigned to the 7th Special Forces Group, which specializes in training local forces. In April, an attack claimed the life of a soldier near Jalalabad in eastern Afghanistan. Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., said in an interview Sunday that he had met McKenna and last saw him at a Fourth of July ceremony in Rhode Island. Reed recalled McKenna as a “wonderful man” and an “extremely competent” Green Beret who had qualified for Special Forces as a communications specialist and worked his way up the ranks. “He was a soldier’s soldier,” Reed said.

Master Sgt. Peter McKenna met Sen. Jack Reed at a July 4 event in Rhode Island, shown here in a photo from Reed’s Twitter account. McKenna was killed Aug. 8 in Afghanistan.

The Pentagon’s casualty releases, a tragic staple of news when the wars raged in Iraq and Afghanistan, have diminished

greatly. Four other troops have died while deployed this year throughout the Middle East, although the military attributed

their deaths to “non-combat” causes. At least 35 U.S. troops have been wounded in Afghanistan this year. The Aug. 7 attack on Camp Integrity also killed eight Afghan contractors and wounded several other U.S. troops and contractors, Col. Brian Tribus, a military spokesman in Kabul, said in a statement. Four insurgents were killed and the camp was secured. About 9,800 U.S. troops remain in Afghanistan, down from a peak of about 100,000 in 2010. Their official “combat mission” ended last year, but a portion of those who remain conduct counterterrorism operations.

Defending Switzerland’s ‘right to die’ law Helena Bachmann Special for USA TODAY

GENEVA When news media last week reported the story of Gill Pharaoh, a 75-year-old British nurse who committed suicide in Switzerland on July 21, I had an uneasy feeling of déjà vu. That’s because every widely publicized “right to die” case sparks not only a firestorm of controversy, but also raises the same question: Was the person’s pain unbearable enough to justify taking his or her own life? In Pharaoh’s case, the news reports said she had no terminal illness and wished to die merely because she was afraid of aging. I don’t personally know people who chose to end their lives the same way as Pharaoh did — by ingesting a lethal dose of barbiturates in a Swiss “suicide clinic.” And, not having walked in her shoes, I can’t weigh in on whether such a radical act is cowardice or courage. But, having written a number of articles about Switzerland’s uniquely liberal “right to die” law and followed the public debate on this subject, I do know that when it comes to assisted suicide, there isn’t a “right” or “wrong” answer. That’s because pain and suffering are not measurable — and even less so, when they are someone else’s. In Switzerland, helping some-

THINKSTOCK

In Switzerland, helping someone die for humane reasons isn’t a crime if rules are respected. one die for selfless and humane reasons is not considered a crime as long as certain rules are respected. Patients must be mentally and physically capable of making the decision to die, not coerced and able to take the physician-prescribed drug themselves. If a third party administers the drug, the act is considered euthanasia, which remains illegal here. No other nation has such a lenient law. In the United States, only four states allow doctor-assisted suicide: Oregon, Vermont, Washington and Montana.

When it comes to assisted suicide, there isn’t a “right” or “wrong” answer. That’s because pain and suffering are not measurable.

Foreigners like Pharaoh constitute about a third of about 1,400 people who opt each year for assisted death through one of Switzerland’s right-to-die organizations. These cases have prompted the media to call Switzerland a “suicide destination.” Clearly, this is not the kind of tourism boom that authorities want to promote, but the attempts to regulate the right-todie industry, and especially to limit the influx of patients coming from abroad, have failed. In a referendum held in 2011 in Zurich — where the majority

of cases take place — 78% of voters opposed a ban on assisted suicide for foreigners. A year later, 62% of voters in the canton (state) of Vaud approved a law that requires continued-care facilities and nursing homes to permit assisted suicide in their facilities. As a result of this widespread support, the issue of death with dignity is not a lightning rod of contention here as it is elsewhere. In fact, the Swiss have a remarkably rational approach to this decidedly emotional and sensitive subject because they regard it as a personal matter of self-determination in which the government should have no say. This brings up the often asked but rarely answered question of what, if any, role should society at large play in what is essentially a private decision. When I analyze this particular topic from a purely human, rather than a journalistic, point of view, all kinds of contradictory feelings emerge. Taking one’s own life is such a drastic and irrevocable step that a part of me cringes at the mere thought of it. But on the other hand, if we are indeed masters of our destinies, then the manner in which we choose to die should be a personal decision. Interestingly enough, we do not deprive our sick and suffering pets of a merciful death. Isn’t it cruel not to extend the same compassion to human beings?

Trump continues to inflame with comments v CONTINUED FROM 1B

For a conventional presidential contender, Trump’s latest burst of inflammatory language would be a political catastrophe. That said, the real-estate mogul and reality-TV star has been defying the conventional wisdom since he announced his bid for the Republican nomination in June, exceeded everyone’s expectations except perhaps his own. Over the past week, he has posted a double-digit lead in the RealClearPolitics average of nationwide surveys and has led statewide polls taken in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, New Hampshire and Iowa. And he has done that during his first foray into electoral politics without having bought a TV ad or built much of a campaign organization. Over the weekend, one long-time adviser, Roger Stone, either quit (according to Stone) or was fired (according to Trump). Trump continues to dominate the debate, which is now centered on his comments on CNN on Friday night. Criticizing Kelly’s aggressive questioning of him, he said: “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her (pause) wherever.” That was widely seen as a reference to menstruation, though Trump insisted in subsequent in-

terviews that he had been referring to her “nose or ears.” Carly Fiorina, the former CEO and the only woman in the GOP field, called Trump’s comments “completely inappropriate and offensive.” Former Florida governor Jeb Bush said Trump should apologize. “Give me a break,” Bush told the Red State Gathering, where the organizer revoked Trump’s invitation to speak to the group. “Do we want to win? Do we want to insult 53% of all voters? What Donald Trump said is wrong. That is not how we win elections.” But Florida Sen. Marco Rubio said he had decided to stop reacting to Trump. “If I comment on everything he says, my whole campaign will be consumed by it,” he said on NBC. “At this point, I mean, we’ve got to focus on our message. Otherwise my whole campaign will be: ‘How do you feel about what Donald Trump said about something?’ He says something every day.” For Republicans, the conundrum is this: Trump has tapped into an unexpectedly powerful vein of political discontent. The first Republican debate drew 24 million viewers, the biggest audience for any non-sports event in cable TV history. In the process, however, he has

Trump’s comments about debate moderater Megyn Kelly added more fodder to critics saying he is waging a war on women.

“You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her (pause) wherever.” Billionaire Donald Trump on GOP primary debate moderator Megyn Kelly’s tough questioning Thursday,

offended some Hispanics by declaring that many undocumented immigrants from Mexico were rapists and criminals; said he doesn’t believe that Arizona Sen. John McCain, who spent more than five years in a Vietnamese POW camp, is a hero “because he was captured;” and now provided new fodder for the Democrats’ refrain that Republicans are waging a “war on women.” And the threat that he might run a third-party campaign sparks memories of the 1992 race. Then, a Democratic candidate named Clinton (Bill) won the White House over a Republican

IN BRIEF DOZENS DEAD AS TYPHOON WEAKENS OVER CHINA

The remnants of a devastating typhoon swept through eastern China on Sunday, leaving at least 22 people dead, homes destroyed and millions of people without power. After lashing Taiwan and leaving at least five people dead and scores injured, Typhoon Soudelor hit Putian City in southeastern China’s Fujian Province on Saturday night, and was downgraded into a tropical storm as it moved across the region. China’s official Xinhua news agency reported that power to more than 2 million homes was affected, according to State Grid Fujian Electric Power Co. The typhoon triggered mudslides in the mountainous Pingyang county in Zhejiang province, north of Fujian, killing nine people and leaving three others missing, state news agency Xinhua reported. More than 370,000 people were evacuated and around 32,000 boats were ordered back to port before the typhoon struck land, the AP said. — Jane Onyanga-Omara

candidate named Bush (George H.W.) in part because of votes drained off by a wealthy businessman running as an independent (H. Ross Perot). To be sure, mounting a thirdparty campaign wouldn’t be easy. Since each state has its own ballot-access rules, a candidate would have to run a grassroots effort in every state to collect enough valid signatures to qualify. In many states, he or she also would face legal challenges from the Republican and Democratic establishments. “It would have to be a very organized effort, and it would take a lot of work,” said Gary Johnson, a former Republican governor of New Mexico who was the Libertarian nominee for president in 2012. Even so, he didn’t dismiss Trump’s chances if he decided to do it. “The main factor in a vote is name familiarity and the main ingredient to name familiarity is money, and Trump has both.” At the Red State Gathering, Holly Gardner, a retired educator from Atlanta, suggested Trump’s comments about Kelly were the beginning of the end for him and expressed hope that he doesn’t launch an independent bid. “But with Trump,” she added, “you never know what he might do.” Contributing: Paul Singer.

FERGUSON PROTESTS PUSHED YEAR OF NATIONAL CHANGE

REMEMBER

Unarmed black men killed by police since Ferguson SCOTT OLSON, GETTY IMAGES

Ferguson activists march through St. Louis during a protest on March 14. A series of cases in which African Americans were killed by police officers spurred protests across the nation.

Police departments buy new equipment, add training in response Yamiche Alcindor USA TODAY

FERGUSON, MO.

he death of Michael Brown a year ago and the resulting outrage shown in protests have sparked a closer look nationwide at unarmed African Americans killed by police. Brown’s violent death by a white police officer raised new questions about racial profiling, police brutality and the relationship between police officers and communities of color. Other controversial deaths in the spotlight since Brown’s include Tamir Rice, 12, shot while playing with a toy gun on Nov. 22 by a Cleveland police officer. Walter Scott, 50, was shot April 4 by a North Charleston, S.C., police officer while allegedly running away. And Samuel DuBose, 43, was shot July 19 during a traffic stop by a University of Cincinnati police officer. “Hearing statistics of police brutality incidents can be jarring, but seeing new cases every few days forces you to acknowledge the pervasiveness of police brutality,” said Keisha Bentley-Edwards, a professor at the University of Texas-Austin who studies race, adolescence and academic and social development. “Seeing the impact on an actual person, their families and their communities personalizes these incidents beyond numbers,” she said. In Ferguson, outside of St. Louis, the police chief, a judge and the city manager, who are all white, resigned after a Justice

“Hearing statistics of police brutality incidents can be jarring, but seeing new cases every few days forces you to acknowledge the pervasiveness of police brutality.” Keisha Bentley-Edwards, a professor at the University of Texas-Austin who studies race, adolescence and academic and social development.

Department review found that the police department engaged in a broad pattern of racially biased enforcement that permeated the city’s justice system, including the use of unreasonable force against black suspects. Two of the city’s new leaders, interim Police Chief Andre Anderson, who began work July 22, and interim city manager Ed Beasley, who was hired June 9, are black. Ferguson’s population is 67% black. Police departments elsewhere have sought to buy body cameras, while other departments added training on diversity, community engagement, bias and how to deescalate tense encounters. At the national level, President Obama created a task force on 21st century policing and banned the sale of some types of military equipment to local law enforcement agencies. “Policing has taken a hard look at itself,” said Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum. “There has been a renewed emphasis on looking at how we hire, how we

train, how we investigate, how we release information to the public. All of these aspects have had a seismic impact on policing.” Darrel Stephens, executive director of the Major Cities Chiefs, said police departments are studying the findings of Obama’s task force and looking at ways to implement its recommendations. “It’s safe to say police officers are a little bit more cautious about what they are doing and how they approach their work today,” Stephens said. Yet police are also frustrated, he added. Police budgets have remained flat, making it impossible for some departments to modernize equipment, boost training and increase salaries to retain and recruit the best people, he said. Some police officers have grown weary of constant comparison to those officers who abuse their power. Fear of provoking the next Ferguson has made some officers unwilling to be aggressive at their jobs, said James Pasco, executive director of the National Fraternal Order of Police. Pasco credits aggressive policing tactics for making communities much safer and lowering crime rates over the past 20 years. Darren Wilson, the white police officer in Ferguson who shot Brown, “will be forever scarred and forever affected by this, and so will every other officer every time they think of the event,” Pasco said. “It’s going to have a chilling effect on their willingness to undertake that kind of appropriately aggressive policing.”

Toxic spill in Colorado river triple what originally thought La Plata County, Durango declare state of emergency Steve Garrison and Joshua Kellogg

The (Farmington, N.M.) Daily Times FARMINGTON,

N. M . Officials from the Environmental Protection Agency said Sunday that the Gold King Mine discharged an estimated 3 million gallons of contaminated water, three times the amount previously believed. The mine continues to discharge 500 gallons per minute, EPA Region 8 administrator Shaun McGrath said in a teleconference call Sunday afternoon, but the polluted water is being contained and treated in two ponds near the site of the spill near Silverton, Colo. According to preliminary test-

ing data the EPA released Sunday, arsenic levels in the Durango area of the Animas River were, at their peak, 300 times the normal level, and lead was 3,500 times the normal level. Officials said those levels have dropped significantly since the plume moved through the area. Both metals pose a significant danger to humans at high levels of concentration. “Yes, those numbers are high and they seem scary,” said Deborah McKean, chief of the Region 8 Toxicology and Human Health and Risk Assessment. “But it’s not just a matter of toxicity of the chemicals, it’s a matter of exposure.” She said the period of time those concentrations remain in one area is short. Earlier Sunday the city of Durango, Colo., and La Plata County, Colo., declared a state of emergency. The Navajo Nation Com-

“We’re working to see if we can get this on the National Priorities List for designation as a SuperFund cleanup site.” Shaun McGrath, EPA Region 8 administrator

mission on Emergency Management also issued a state of emergency declaration in response to the spill. EPA officials said in the teleconference that water quality experts have been deployed to Shiprock and are encouraging people there to take advantage of water quality sampling. EPA officials said they are also working to provide necessary materials to people in Farmington

and Aztec for private well sampling. New Mexico Environment Department spokeswoman Allison Scott-Majure said testing has not yet been performed in San Juan County. In San Juan County, restrictions are still in effect along the Animas River, said County Executive Officer Kim Carpenter. The biggest obstacle, he said, is making sure residents and livestock have access to drinking water. Access to the Animas River is still closed throughout the county, and officials advise residents with wells in floodplains to have their water tested before drinking it or bathing in it. Carpenter said people and their pets should avoid contact with the river, livestock should not be allowed to drink the water and people should not catch fish in the river. He also instructed people to avoid contact with the

wildlife along the river in Berg Park as information on the chemicals in the water is still being released. Owners of RVs and livestock were allowed to fill their tanks in Aztec, next to City Hall and the Aztec Police Department. Residents were urged to bring their own containers and were asked to keep tanks to 100 gallons or less. Potable water stations were also set up throughout the county. In Sunday’s teleconference, McGrath said the EPA is looking at the next steps for cleaning up the site. “We’re working to see if we can get this on the National Priorities List for designation as a SuperFund cleanup site,” McGrath said. He qualified the statement a moment later, saying, “It’s one option that can be considered.” Contributing: Greg Toppo, USA TODAY; KUSA-TV, Denver

Labor Dept. to hold hearing on conflicts of interest Charisse Jones USA TODAY

The Department of Labor will hold a public hearing this week on a proposed rule it says will shield millions of Americans from conflicts of interest on the part of advisers who guide them in saving for retirement. The proposed rule would require that any financial adviser being compensated for giving advice on investments in 401(k)s and IRAs put their client’s best interest before their own. The hearing, which runs Mon-

day through Thursday, marks the latest step in what has been a nearly five-year journey to enact a rule that would mark the most significant change regarding retirement investment advice in 40 years. But the debate over the potential regulation rages on. Supporters say it provides vital protection for Americans who currently lose roughly $17 billion a year to conflicts of interest by advisers more interested in their own profits than their clients’ financial futures. Critics argue the proposal is cumbersome and will ultimately hurt the middle-class

investors it’s intended to protect, and may lead to them having a harder time finding professional guidance as advisers focus on higher-wealth individuals and shift from commissions to costlier fees to bolster the bottom line. “It is impossible to overstate how important this rule will be to the standard of living of tens of millions of Americans in retirement,” says Dennis Kelleher, CEO of Better Markets Inc., a non-profit group that promotes the public interest in financial markets. “They are looking at the prospect of literally tens of billions of dollars more staying in

their retirement accounts, and being available to them in retirement for their use, instead of being diverted into brokers’ pockets due to commissions, fees and conflicts of interest.” But the Financial Services

MONEYLINE

Roundtable, an advocacy group for the financial services industry, disagrees. “The (Department of Labor’s) proposal is extremely complicated and impractical, and would adversely impact retirement savings, particularly for lower- and moderate-income Americans,” Felicia Smith, FSR’s vice president and senior regulatory counsel, said in an email. The proposed rule seeks to impose additional safeguards as pensions disappear and Americans increasingly have to figure out for themselves how best to fund their retirements. Some advisers might steer clients toward investments that have high costs or weak returns but pay the adviser high fees or commissions. THE WEEK AHEAD

IPHONE 6S EXPECTED SEPT. 9 Apple is expected to reveal its latest smartphone, the iPhone 6s model, at an event expected to be held Sept. 9. The device maker traditionally unveils new smartphones in early September, and this year is likely to be no different, several tech news sites report. New products introduced could also include new iPads and a new Apple TV set-top box, according to BuzzFeed. BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY PREPARING BIGGEST DEAL YET Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway could be on the verge of closing its biggest deal ever. The holding company is close to acquiring aerospace and energy industry parts maker Precision Castparts Corp. of Portland, Ore., in a deal that could exceed $30 billion. The transaction, which could be announced as soon as next week, was reported by “The Wall Street Journal.” If completed at that price, the deal would surpass Berkshire Hathaway’s acquisition of Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad for about $27 billion in 2009. RESEARCHERS HACK INTO COMPUTERIZED SNIPER RIFLE Computer security researchers have devised a way to hack a computer-aided sniper rifle over Wi-Fi. Researchers Runa Sandvik and husband Michael Auger presented their findings last week at the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas. They hacked the software used in a TrackingPoint TP750 precision-guided rifle and made it miss its target. Various ways they affected the rifle were to give the gun incorrect wind conditions and ammunition information. The researchers emphasized the gun cannot be fired remotely; the trigger must be pulled manually. FRIDAY MARKETS INDEX

Good news likely on the way for retail sales, jobs Paul Davidson @pdavidsonusat USA TODAY

A light week of economic news will highlight whether some key economic engines — the labor market, retail sales and industrial production — are gaining momentum into the second half of the year. The employment market has been healthy, with the Labor Department last week reporting 215,000 net job gains in July and a monthly average of 235,000 the past three months. On Wednesday, Labor’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover survey for June will burrow beneath those totals to reveal the strength of employer demand and hiring, and the nature of employee movements.

As company’s stock tumbles, bears see red flags while bulls see huge opportunity Matt Krantz USA TODAY

It seems gravity applies to Apple, too. Apple stock is down 12% since July 21, following the company’s second-quarter profit report showing iPhone sales that were strong but not the blowout many investors have gotten used to, as well as lackluster Apple Watch sales. Apple’s decline is a startling development for the markets — and could have broad importance. Apple is one of — if not the — largest holding by many individual investors, says SigFig. A big decline like this for Apple is noteworthy enough to rattle investors who might not normally pay much attention to the broad stock market. Apple is so enormous, with its market value of $660 billion — more than any other U.S. company — that when it struggles, all investors feel the pain. Apple accounts for almost 4% of the value of the Standard & Poor’s 500 and 17% of the tech sector, says Howard Silverblatt of S&P Dow Jones Indices. “The combination of Apple’s

size and price moves results in an enormous impact on indices, with the only comparison being International Business Machines’ impact in the early 1980s, when PCs were new, and IBM was expected to own the market,” Silverblatt says. Given the importance and size of Apple, it’s not surprising investors have very different reactions

Bulls see it as a giant buying opportunity. Bears see the decline as a repricing due to serious risks the company faces. China, Apple’s last big growth market, is seeing its economy slow. China’s economic growth has been just 7% during the first six months of this year — the slowest growth in 25 years, says Reuters.

surged to the highest on records dating to 2000, hires and quits have approached but failed to reach prerecession levels. The number of workers quitting jobs will be scrutinized by the Federal Reserve as it weighs an interest rate hike in September. The measure typically signifies whether employees are confident enough to leave one position for another — the hallmark of a dynamic labor market. Quits hit a postrecession peak in January but have edged down recently. Lewis Alexander, chief U.S. economist of Nomura, expects quits to gradually rise as the 5.3% unemployment rate continues to fall. Retail sales have also been choppy despite low gasoline prices, reduced consumer debt, healthy job growth, and higher household wealth from rising stock and home prices. Consumer purchases rose sharply in May but fell in June. Economists estimate the Commerce Department will report Thursday that a “core” measure of sales — that excludes autos, gasoline, food services and building materials — increased a solid 0.5% in July. Industrial production, meanwhile, has lagged behind the broader economy as a strong dollar has dampened exports and low oil prices have discouraged drilling activity. But a blockbuster auto sales market is underpinning strong vehicle production. As a result, economists estimate that the Fed on Friday will report that factory output rose 0.3% last month.

TRAVEL ASK THE CAPTAIN

Safety has improved despite cost-cutting

BUSINESS MEETINGS BRANCH OUT TO SMALLER CITIES

John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

Charisse Jones USA TODAY

If you’re heading soon to a conference or group meeting, there’s a strong chance you’ll be spending time in Tucson, or Charleston, S.C., or Jacksonville. Cvent, an event-management portal, is out with its list of the 50 most popular U.S. cities for events and meetings, and while the usual suspects like Orlando and Las Vegas remain at the top, smaller cities are emerging as appealing alternatives. “The entire meeting experience will be cheaper for the attendee,” says Reggie Aggarwal, Cvent’s CEO, “but also people are looking for different experiences. That’s why we’re seeing a rise of regional alternatives.” In the U.S., 30% to 35% of business travel is made up of people heading to events, conferences and meetings. And based on activity tracked from July 2014 through June 2015, Cvent found that Orlando is the No. 1 destination, followed by Las Vegas and Chicago. The top three lineup is relatively unchanged from the previous year. But Pittsburgh and Charleston, S.C., made their debuts on the new list, coming in at numbers 43 and 50, respectively. And Jacksonville and Tucson appeared for only the second time

SMALLER CITIES POPULAR Four cities broke into the list of top 50 places for meetings and events in 2015, according to evaluations by Cvent.

Top 10 1. Orlando 2. Las Vegas 3. Chicago 4. San Diego 5. Atlanta

6. Washington 7. New York 8. Dallas 9. Nashville 10. Phoenix

in the annual poll, grabbing the 47th and 48th spots respectively. Jacksonville may be an attractive alternative to Orlando for meeting attendees who’ve never visited Jacksonville before, Aggarwal says, while Charleston might be a refreshing option to the busier metro hub of Atlanta. “It’s very interesting to me when there’s a conference somewhere I’ve never been,” he says. BILLIONS AT STAKE

Municipalities vie for meetings and events because they’re big business. Globally, $565 billion a year is spent on such gatherings, with the U.S. market seeing roughly 40% of that revenue, ac-

Tucson is moving up in the world of business travel. cording to Cvent, And hotels alone receive $103 billion of that spending, worldwide, each year. So smaller cities are joining their perhaps better-known peers in investing in conference centers, upgrading airports and bringing more hotel rooms into the market to increase their chances of being chosen. Lauren Dolph, conference director for the Texas Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, says that for years her group toggled between Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio and Houston for their annual conferences. But now the organization is seeking smaller, off-the-beaten path destinations to boost attendance and keep people inspired once they get there. “We have attendees from across the state and from across the country, and we’re looking at how can we do something different,” she says. “How do we keep it fresh and make them think this is an event they need to be coming to every year? ... There’s something about these smaller towns where they really seem to work with us.” MONEY TALKS

Next year, the group will hold its annual gathering on Galveston Island on the Texas Gulf Coast. And it’s separately considering a

CITY OF TUCSON

reception in the south Texas town of McAllen, where a group of the community’s elders will come and share the town’s history. “There’s something about that which is very special and unique,” she says. Pricing is also critical so attendees can afford to come. “We’re looking at who’s willing to work with us and who is able to offer things like parking and whether the Wi-Fi is free,” Dolph says. Tucson launched a rebranding effort roughly two years ago to woo more business gatherings as well as vacationers. Local tourism officials give meeting planners tools to help promote the city so potential attendees can see the appeal of traveling there “vs. places they’ve consistently gone to, like Las Vegas or Anaheim,” says Graeme Hughes, director of sales for Visit Tucson. “People want to experience things and experience the destination in a very personal and tactile way now, so we seized on that momentum.” Hughes says tourism officials emphasize Tucson’s uniqueness, such as its location just 60 miles from Mexico and its confluence of Native American, Spanish and Western cultures. “It’s a huge boon to our economy,” he says.

Question: As airlines push for cost savings and to increase profit in every way (i.e. baggage fees, charging for drinks and seat upgrades, etc.), do you have a concern that the airline industry has or will start taking calculated risks with flight safety to increase profit? — Submitted by reader Mike Mease, Gilbert, Ariz. A: The airlines had to change their pricing model to meet the challenges from low-cost carriers and the Internet. The ancillary fees grew from a need to get the lowest ticket price during an Internet search, which is now the way most passengers book flights. The accident and incident statistics show that safety has improved during the time that the fees have come into use. It does not appear that there are any calculated risks being taken. The airlines have powerful incentives to operate safely; the improving accident and incident rates show the commitment. My experience is that the competitive pressure of modern airline operations has not adversely affected the operations, maintenance and training. Q: Why haven’t the large domestic airlines (American, United, Delta) raised their ticket costs in exchange for “eliminating ” the cost of the first checked bag? — Steve, Austin A: Because of the Internet, ticket pricing is very competitive. Even $1 can make a big difference in where a flight appears in a search return. The airlines have found it more advantageous to advertise the lowest possible fare but then charge fees for services. Q: You have said that “a pricing scheme for cost by weight could theoretically be done, but I have never heard of it.” Perhaps you have; when I was a kid, the local regional airport offered “penny a pound” rides for kids to see what things looked like from the air! — Dave, Honolulu A: You are right; I have flown “penny a pound” fundraisers in my early years. I was referring to airline operations, but appreciate the reminder of a fun tradition. Cox is a retired captain and runs his own aviation safety consulting firm.

Don’t let the toll booth slow you down Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Ask Beth Souther to name her favorite travel gadget and she’ll tell you about her recent road trip from Wilmington, N.C., to Byfield, Mass. On Interstate 95, traffic ground to a halt at predictable intervals as drivers waited their turns to pay a toll. But Souther, a media coach from Wilmington, had packed her E-ZPass transponder, which let her access an express lane. She settled her bill without slowing down. “On a trip of that length, the transponder saved an hour or more,” she says. Ah, toll roads. There are more than 5,000 miles of them in the U.S., according to the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association. If you have to stop and pay, they can be a massive source of stress and a major irritant. But with a little advance planning — and the right transponder — you can soar to your destination faster. Surprisingly, many motorists haven’t bothered with a transponder and continue to fumble ON TRAVEL EVERY MONDAY

for loose change when they encounter a toll booth. Only onethird to one-half of drivers use these convenient payment systems. Which transponder do you need? For now, it depends on where you’re headed, and for how long. Travelers in the Northeast will need an E-ZPass. In the South, and particularly in Florida, SunPass is the dominant system. Some highways in the United States have “open road” or boothless tolling, which let you register your plates instead of buying a transponder. Richard Frisbie, who owns a publishing company in Saugerties, N.Y., swears by his E-ZPass, which lets him skip the lines at toll booths in New York’s Hudson Valley and points beyond. “I use E-ZPass to travel all over New England,” he says. “Whether I’m flying out of New York, New Jersey or Boston, my E-ZPass covers all the tolls and the longterm parking.” My family and I will probably do a few cross-country trips this summer. We’ve owned several SunPass and E-ZPass transponders. The windshield of our Honda looks like an octopus is being held captive. It’s dotted with suction cups. My best toll tip? It’s to know which transponder goes where. For example, what do you display in Washington, D.C.? For now, the answer is E-ZPass.

MEINZAHN, GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

Many motorists haven’t bothered with a transponder and continue to fumble for loose change at toll booths.

WHICH TRANSPONDER? uGo big. E-ZPass is the most established and widest-used tolling system. If you live in the Northeast, you need one of these. It’s accepted in 15 states from Illinois to Maine, south to North Carolina. Initial cost: $0 to $2 a month, with certain restrictions, depending on which state you buy it in. uTry a creative solution. You can buy two transponders, adding a SunPass. The second-largest compatible tolling system is in Florida, Georgia and North Carolina. If you’re looking for maximum compatibility, check out North Carolina’s NC Quick Pass, which works from Florida all the way up to Maine and as far west as Illinois. uWait. If you’re in California, and use a system like FasTrak, you’re probably better off holding on for transponder interoperability, or buying a second or third transponder.

But let’s skip to the good news: There’s a federal mandate requiring all states to have interoperable road tolling systems by next fall. In other words, your transponder will work anywhere in the

United States. “Tolling agencies throughout North America are establishing joint agreements to allow you to use the transponder in your car in multiple states,” says Michael

Wilson, managing director at Accenture Transit and Tolling Services for North America. Already, you can find transponders that work across multiple tolling systems — for example, a SunPass transponder that also works on toll roads in Georgia. And there’s even more good news down the road. Mobile tolling apps such as PToll (ptoll.com) are available now in Colorado and most of Texas, which let you register your rental’s license plates through an app on your smartphone and make payment arrangements. PToll charges a 15% toll “convenience” fee to use it. The Illinois Tollway is also testing a smartphone application that would allow you to pay tolls by phone as your vehicle passes under a toll plaza. Already, a company called TransCore is offering a Universal Toll Module, which would be integrated into the vehicle manufacturing process. Systems like these would allow you to skip the transponder entirely and download a tolling app directly to your onboard navigation system. Toll booths would also be rendered obsolete, since toll charges can be registered based on tolling points identified by GPS markers on toll roads.

feud with rapper Meek Mill, but back in April, Drake was considered a loser on the festival circuit. He sleepwalked through his top-billed Coachella slot, and his awkward smooch from Madonna overshadowed his performance, which The Desert Sun likened to running through a checklist of hits for an “overhyped, underwhelming” hour and a half. Music website Consequence of Sound asked whether he was the “worst headliner in Coachella history.” Probably a stretch, but his merely OK set at New York’s Governors Ball in June didn’t do much to convince us otherwise.

one of the best-reviewed albums of the year, expectations were sky-high for Lamar. So naturally, some fans were disappointed when he played only one song (Alright) off To Pimp a Butterfly at Oregon’s Sasquatch! festival in May, filling most of his set with popular but tired tracks off Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City. The New York Times also was disenchanted when the rapper headlined Summer Jam in June, calling him a “B-list version of an A-list star,” whose serviceable set concertgoers regarded “with something less than ebullience.” USA TODAY’s Brian Mansfield was more impressed, at Bonnaroo, remarking how Lamar had “some 70,000 people in the palm of his hand.”

Another sweaty, songful music festival season has come to an end. Over the past few months, up-and-comers Elle King, Azealia Banks and Flume made waves on the circuit, while midlevel acts The Weeknd and Tame Impala cemented their star status with dynamic live sets.

But she’s not the kind of singer whose magnetism can keep a crowd spellbound when sound issues strike — a hurdle she faced at Governors Ball, causing fans to file out. Although we were unengaged by most of her set , Billboard wrote that her “smoky, if thimble-sized voice” couldn’t reach the whole audience, but “it only added to the attention she commanded.” GRADE: C+

Tom Cruise continued a fantastic box office run this weekend. Fantastic Four? Not so much. In its second weekend, Cruise and his spy movie Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation upended the new superhero film for first place at the box office with $29.4 million, according to studio estimates from Rentrak. The fifth installment of the M:I franchise cracked $100 million in 10 days. Rogue Nation’s success solidifies Cruise as one of the best actor/producers, says Rentrak senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian. “His entire mission with Mission is to entertain the audience, and he will do whatever it takes, in front of the camera — with his stunts taking the action to another level — and also behind the camera.”

DAVID JAMES, PARAMOUNT PICTURES

Tom Cruise and Rebecca Ferguson power M:I to another No. 1. And Paramount signing off on a sixth installment “shows a very strong sign of support,” says Jeff Bock, senior box office analyst for Exhibitor Relations. Meanwhile, the latest attempt at jump-starting a Fantastic Four franchise crashed and burned. Savaged by critics — and holding a 9% approval rating on the re-

view site RottenTomatoes.com — the Josh Trank-directed movie came in at No. 2 with $26.2 million, which “is disastrous for a superhero film in this day and age,” Bock says. “Normally I feel outside forces don’t affect box office,” Dergarabedian says. “But the negative publicity was so overwhelming.”

The R-rated thriller The Gift, starring and directed by Australian actor Joel Edgerton, opened in third with $12 million. Rounding out the top five were Vacation with $9.1 million and Marvel Studios’ Ant-Man, which ran its domestic total past $145 million with a $7.8 million take. Meryl Streep may rock in Ricki and the Flash, but the dramedy rolled to only a $7 million debut, good for seventh behind Minions’ $7.4 million as the little yellow henchmen passed $300 million. And the latest Aardman animated film Shaun the Sheep Movie racked up $4 million for $5.6 million total since its opening Wednesday. Its great reviews — 99% on Rotten Tomatoes — could help in the coming weeks. Late summer “can be a good time to be a moviegoer,” Dergarabedian says. “There are gems in there, and The Gift and Shaun the Sheep Movie are August gems.” Final figures are due Monday.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR ROB LIKENS HOLDS A PAD UPRIGHT as receivers DeAnte Ford, left, and Steven Sims Jr. practice coming off a block during the first day of practice Thursday at the fields south of Anschutz Pavilion.

KU all business … between lines By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas University offensive coordinator Rob Likens is a big believer in preparation and focus, and he expects the players he coaches to bring both to the practice field every day. “Here’s my philosophy,” Likens said. “You love ’em and make the environment fun for ’em before practice and right as the whistle blows and you’re walking off the practice field. In between, it’s professional time, and it’s time to go to work.” That ideology has been a staple of the Likens way at every stop he has made in the past 10 years of coaching. And he owes it to one sloppy day at Central Connecticut

State during his first season there as offensive coordinator in 2006. “We had a really bad practice,” Likens recalled. “And I brought the team up, and I said, ‘Boys, I’m married. I’ve got a wife at home who would rather me be at home right now. If we’re not gonna pay attention to the details, and we’re gonna practice that way, then this whole Likens thing’s gonna fail, and I might as well go home right now. Let me know if you want something different.’” Then Likens grabbed his hat, snagged his keys and took off. What he saw the next

morning blew his mind and helped shape a portion of his pre-practice routine for years to come. “The next day, we had a morning practice, and I came down the hill, and I turned the corner, and my entire offense was sitting on this side of the white stripe with their helmets buckled waiting on me,” Likens said. “When I came into the gate, they were like, ‘You ready, coach?’ And I was like, ‘Wow, I’m ready. Let’s go.’ We went in there and had a good practice, and I’ve never had a problem since.” The drill, if you can call it that, has been known since that day as The White Stripe,

and Likens has taken it with him through stops at Louisiana Tech, Cal and now Kansas. He said he had been impressed by the way his Jayhawks had taken to the idea so easily and appreciated that they recognized its importance. “We do not allow any of our offensive football players to walk across the white stripe of the practice field until we gather up and somebody is picked out to discuss the tone they want to set for the day,” Likens said. “They tell ’em, and we all agree on it, and then we snap our helmets on, and then we run across the right stripe, signifying that we just went from Please see LIKENS, page 3C

The son of former Kansas University basketball center Pekka Markkanen has decided to follow in dad’s footsteps and play college ball in the United States. Lauri Markkanen, a 6-foot11, 225-pound high school senior from Finland, will make official visits to North Carolina, Utah and Arizona, all in the span of Oct. 11-17. North Carolina coach Roy Williams’ Tar Heels might have the edge, considering Pekka had a good experience playing for Williams and Kansas University in 1989-90. Pekka Markkanen averaged 6.9 points and 3.9 boards for a 30-5 KU team that placed second in the Big Eight and lost in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. That KU team was the one that pounded Kentucky, 150-95, in the nonconference season and beat Shaquille O’Neal and LSU, as well as Larry Johnson and UNLV, in the Preseason NIT. Pekka, a 6-9, 240-pounder, elected to return to Finland with his wife, Riikka, after that one year in the U.S. Pekka, 48, played in Finland’s pro league until retiring in 2007. Lauri Markkanen averaged 18.2 points and 6.3 rebounds per game for Finland at the recent FIBA Under 18 World Championships. “I think I have a chance to play right away, get many minutes of playing time,” 18-year-old Lauri Markkanen told Draftexpress.com. Of Lauri, who is regarded as an oustanding shooter for a big man, Draftexpress.com writes: “Can do a little bit of everything offensively. Ideal stretch 4-man.

Lions’ Bledsoe has handle on hype By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High senior football standout Amani Bledsoe knows some of the difficulties of being one of the top recruits in the country. All of the phone calls and messages. The time needed to build relationships with dozens and dozens of coaches.

The 6-foot-5, 270-pounder is ranked as the top recruit in Kansas and No. 131 in the nation by Rivals.com. Bledsoe admits it was tough to handle at times, but he has it under control. He cut his list of potential schools to 10 last week, listing Kansas University, Miami, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Or-

egon, TCU and UCLA as his semifinalists. “It was just about time,” said Bledsoe, who plans to cut his list again in the next few weeks. “I mean, it was just getting too crazy. I narrowed it down so I could stay a little bit more focused.” Bledsoe’s recruitment heated up last summer, when he stood out at col-

lege camps, earning his first scholarship offer in midJune from Oklahoma State. Last season, he was the only player in the Sunflower League to earn first-team all-league honors on both sides of the line. He led the Nick Krug/Journal-World File Photo league with 13 sacks. “Last year when it all start- LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR AMANI BLEDSOE works ed, it was pretty exciting,” out with the defensive line during the Lions’ summer football camp in this photo from June 1 Please see BLEDSOE, page 3C at LHS.

Royals close out sweep of ChiSox

KANSAS CITY’S KENDRYS MORALES CELEBRATES after hitting a two-run home run during the first inning of the Royals’ 5-4 victory over the White Sox on Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — With All-Star reliever Wade Davis nursing a bad back and closer Greg Holland earning saves the past two days and unavailable, Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost turned to Ryan Madson to protect a onerun lead in the ninth. Madson struck out two in a spotless inning as the Royals edged the Chicago White Sox 5-4 Sunday for a three-game sweep.

“We feel we have four guys that can close,” Yost said. Madson saved 32 games in 2011 with Philadelphia, but had been out of the majors until this year because of injuries. “It helps a bunch,” Madson said of being familiar with the role. “When you first try it, it’s a totally different feel, a totally different game in that ninth inning.” “But so, yeah, I appreciate

all the experience I’ve had throwing in the ninth inning ‘cause then it’s just the same game as it is in the eighth and seventh. Sometimes it’s a little bit easier because the hitters feel more pressure and they’re a little more aggressive,” he said. The Royals have won three straight games by one run for the first time since August 2012. Kansas City widened its lead to 11 1-2 games in the AL Central and

improved to 10-3 against the White Sox this season. Kendrys Morales hit a two-run homer that put Kansas City ahead 3-0 in the first. “The first inning changed my whole game,” White Sox starter Jose Quintana said. It was 4-all in the eighth when Alex Rios singled with one out off Jake Petricka (3-3), and Paulo Orlando Please see ROYALS, page 3C

Logano sweeps at Glen Watkins Glen, N.Y. (ap) — Joey Logano had enough fuel this time. A week after running out of gas while leading at Pocono with three laps to go, Logano passed Kevin Harvick on the final turn as Harvick ran dry to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Watkins Glen International on Sunday. Logano completed a weekend sweep after winning the Xfinity race on Saturday and gave Roger Penske his first Cup victory at The Glen. Logano also won the season-opening Daytona 500. “What goes around comes around, I guess,” Logano said after a long tire-smoking burnout. “It’s cool to get through on the other end. I’m still just trying to catch my breath.” Kyle Busch, who ran out of fuel on the last lap at Pocono while leading, finished second and moved to 30th in points, the cutoff to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup title as he continued his remarkable surge. Harvick coasted home third, Matt Kenseth was fourth, and Kurt Busch fifth. Clint Bowyer, Brad Keselowski, Carl Edwards, Sam Hornish Jr. and Jimmie Johnson rounded out the top 10. Tony Stewart, who qualified third, was competing at Watkins Glen for the first time after missing the previous two Cup races at the track in the Finger Lakes of upstate New York. He was nursing a broken right leg two years ago and sat out last year’s race after the sprint car he was driving in a race at nearby Canandaigua struck and killed 20-year-old driver Kevin Ward Jr. the night before Stewart was scheduled to race at Watkins Glen. On Friday, Stewart again had to revisit that tragedy. Attorneys representing the Ward family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Stewart, another hurdle in what has been a season without much hope until recently, and Sunday marked the one-year anniversary of Ward’s death. Stewart finished last after his car broke a rear gear midway through the 90-lap race. In the last road race of his NASCAR career, Jeff Gordon had brake problems and finished 41st to take another big hit in points. AJ Allmendinger, the defending race winner and pole-sitter gunning for another victory that would have given a second Chase berth for the one-car JTG Daugherty team, led the first 20 laps with Martin Truex Jr. in tow, but he was passed the next time around and dropped to third as the No. 47 Chevy began to fade.

MINNESOTA DEFENSIVE END DANIELLE HUNTER (99) STOPS PITTSBURGH QUARTERBACK LANDRY JONES in the Vikings’ 14-3 victory in the Hall of Fame game on Sunday in Canton, Ohio.

Vikings down Steelers in HOF game, 14-3 Canton, Ohio — Backup quarterback Mike Kafka threw a touchdown pass and running back Joe Banyard ran for another score to help the Minnesota Vikings beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 14-3 on Sunday night in the Hall of Fame game. Most of the regulars watched from the sidelines in the annual exhibition opener, including Adrian Peterson and Ben Roethlisberger. Minnesota quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed five of six passes for 44 yards in his one series of work. The reigning Rookie of the Year’s night ended when the Steelers stopped the Vikings on fourth down midway through the first quarter. There was a moment of silence before kickoff for Hall of Fame running back and longtime broadcaster Frank Gifford. The former New York Giants star died Sunday morning at age 84. Hall of Famer Jerome Bettis waved a “Terrible Towel” during pregame introductions, with the decidedly pro-Pittsburgh crowd roaring its approval. The running back nicknamed “The Bus” stood with the rest of the Hall’s new class for the coin toss, the only moment of true star power on a night the bold-faced names still in uniform didn’t break a sweat if they even bothered to suit up at all.

Lowry finished at 11-under 269 and earned $1.57 million, along with a PGA Tour card for the next three years. He had been a special temporary member. He won the Irish Open as an amateur in 2009, and he picked up another European Tour victory in 2012 in Portugal. Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a final-round 73, including a triple bogey on the par-5 No. 16 hole, dropped two places to a tie for 57th and finished at 289, 20 strokes back. He earned $45,750.

Henry takes Barracuda Reno, Nev. — J.J. Henry won the Barracuda Championship for the second time in four years, beating Kyle Reifers with a 15-foot eagle putt from the fringe on the second hole of a playoff. After Henry holed the left-to-right breaking putt on the par-5 18th, Reifers missed a 10-footer. Reifers had three back-nine eagles in a 22-point round to match Henry at 47 points at Montreux Golf and Country Club in the PGA Tour’s only modified Stableford event. The 40-year-old Henry, also the 2012 winner, closed with a birdie for a six-point round.

CHIEFS WIDE RECEIVER DE’ANTHONY THOMAS (13) CATCHES A PASS with interference provided by teammate Frankie Hammond during training camp Aug. 3 in St. Joseph, Missouri.

Chiefs expect more from WR Thomas St. Joseph, Mo. (ap) — There were moments last season when the Chiefs’ De’Anthony Thomas resembled the player that rapper Snoop Dogg nicknamed “Black Mamba,” a shifty do-everything star renowned for his speed and elusiveness on the Pop Warner playing fields. There were also moments that he looked like a lost NFL rookie. Now a year wiser and stronger, Thomas is hoping to build on that debut entering Year 2 with Kansas City. He’s made the switch from running back to wide receiver, but the reality is the spot amounts to semantics — versatility remains a big part of his game. “I learned the running back stuff last year, now I’m learning the receiver stuff also,” he said. It’s just all about learning the whole offense, and I feel like the more valuable I can be to the team, the more time I can be on the field.” Thomas only played in

12 games last season, and his numbers on offense were modest: 14 carries for 113 yards and a score, and 23 catches for 156 yards. In fact, he was more valuable as a kick and punt returner, even taking one punt for a touchdown against Oakland. But the Chiefs expect more of the former fourth-round draft pick this season, especially given how thin they are at wide receiver. Jeremy Maclin is the unquestioned leader of the position group, and Jason Avant is the elder statesman. But beyond that, players such as Albert Wilson are big on potential but short on proven ability. “He is still taking the ball-handling, still doing stuff in the running back position, but the majority of his snaps were from that receiver position,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said, when asked to explain the switch to wide receiver. “So we said, ‘You know what? Let’s just put him

there. We know he can get back there — he does ball-handling, so he works on the runs, but we put the major emphasis on him getting to know those routes better as a receiver.’” Thomas has already turned some heads in training camp. He made such a stunning cut to get open against cornerback Phillip Gaines that the defender went toppling to the ground, captured on a video that quickly went viral. “I just see myself as a contributor,” Thomas said. “Special teams is very big for us also.” Notes: There were several scuffles in Sunday’s practice, including punches thrown between WR Jeremy Maclin and DB Marcus Cooper. RB Charcandrick West and CB Jamell Fleming got into it, as did WR Albert Wilson and CB Steven Nelson. ...

the real world, clowning around and all that stuff, to, ‘OK, boys, it’s time to go to work.’” Likens likes The White Stripe because it gives the players ownership and allows them to determine what type of effort they want to put forth. “I’m never gonna be able to physically make (them) do that,” Likens said. “That’s a decision (they’ve) gotta make.” And it’s not just something the first-year KU offensive coordinator expects from his players. Likens, too, flips the switch from fun-loving, laid-back California kid to crazed coach focused on the pursuit of perfection. At the first practice of preseason camp last week, Likens could be heard shouting reminders to anyone in range. “Get professional. Do everything perfect. Be a freak about details.” The words came mostly from habit because Likens said they have not been needed. “In all my 25 years of coaching, you always have guys that resist,” he said. “I don’t know why, but they do. On offense, though, I haven’t seen any guys out there resisting any of our coaching.” A big reason for that, Likens believes, is because, in a way, he has handed over ownership of the team to his players. “We talk all the time about let’s set the standard at practice today for what you guys want your team to look like,” Likens said. “Not me. You’re the ones that are gonna go out there and be on TV, and you’re the ones playing. I’m gonna be up in the booth. Ain’t nobody gonna see me. They’re gonna see you out on that field. What do you want to look like? If that’s what you want to look like on Sept. 5, show me that today. And they’ve been taking that approach.”

followed with a groundrule double. Omar Infante hit a grounder to first baseman Jose Abreu, and Rios slid home ahead of the tag. “Jake threw the pitch he wanted,” White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “It wasn’t very well struck. “At that point it doesn’t matter. They’ve got a guy who can run well down the line. It was a tough play by Jose, but I thought he made a good effort.” Kelvin Herrera (3-2) picked up the victory despite blowing a save and giving up the tying run in the eighth on Melky Cabrera’s RBI single with two outs. Eric Hosmer doubled home a run in the first, and Morales hit his 13th

homer. It was Morales’ major-league-lead in g 24th multi-RBI game. Royals starter Danny Duffy was pulled after 31⁄3 innings and 73 pitches. He gave up three runs in the third on a walk, hit batter, wild pitch and two hits. Kris Medlen replaced him and threw 32⁄3 hitless innings. Gordon Beckham singled home the first run, his first RBI since June 21, and Alexei Ramirez had a two-out, two-run single. Ben Zobrist put the Royals ahead in the fifth when he singled home Jarrod Dyson.

Bledsoe said. “Then more and more schools came along, and I’ll admit, it did become a little hard to balance phone calls, home work and social life as well. That’s kind of led to me backing off a little. “Bu,t I mean, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and process.” Next week, Bledsoe will begin practicing for his final prep football season, and he’ll try to make the most the recruiting process. He plans to take an official visit to UCLA on Sept. 19 and to Oregon on Sept. 26. “Those are the programs that I really liked,” Bledsoe said. “Not that I didn’t like the others — I like them a lot, too. But these are the ones that kind of stood out, and I just kind of zeroed on these. “I’m pretty excited. I’m trying to go out there and figure out a little more about the programs. I have to figure out my other three (official) visits as well.” Bledsoe attended KU’s practice Saturday at Memorial Stadium, and he has noticed a difference since

David Beaty was named coach in December. “Definitely. You just feel more energy, more enthusiasm with everything,” Bledsoe said. “It’s just something different and a little extra ‘oomph’ in the program.” As Bledsoe figures out his future college plans, he has made one football commitment. He will play in the Semper Fidelis AllAmerican Bowl on Jan. 3, 2016, at the StubHub Center in Carson, California. The game will be broadcast on Fox Sports 1. Olathe North safety Isaiah Simmons, the No. 3 recruit in Kansas, was also selected to play in the All-American Bowl. “I’m really excited, because we’re all seniors,” Bledsoe said. “It’ll give me an opportunity to play again with some of the best players across the world.” Now that Bledsoe has cut his list and he’s starting to narrow his choices, he will take his time looking for the right fit. “It’s pretty much me,” Bledsoe said. “I mean, my mom just wants it to be my decision in the long run. I just need to pick the best program for me for the next four to five years.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Jays close in on Yanks The Associated Press

American League Blue Jays 2, Yankees 0 New York — Josh Donaldson and Jose Bautista each hit a long home run, and Toronto earned its eighth straight victory by beating the New York Yankees on Sunday to complete a three-game sweep that tightened the AL East race. Marco Estrada tossed three-hit ball into the seventh inning against the suddenly slumping Yankees, outpitching Masahiro Tanaka during Toronto’s second consecutive shutout.

Yankees’ Gardner plunked when fan throws back HR ball New York (ap) — A teenage fan at Yankee Stadium showed off quite an arm Sunday — at the expense of All-Star outfielder Brett Gardner. The New York left fielder was hit in the back of the head but not hurt when a fan threw

back a ball that Toronto slugger Jose Bautista had launched for a home run. Gardner immediately flinched after he was struck in the fourth inning, but stayed in the game without a problem. “I just wore it. Didn’t even turn around,” he said.

“It wasn’t like it was coming from the second row. It was a long ways away.” Following the Yankees’ 2-0 defeat, Gardner said he had a bump on his crown. “I’ve got a hard head, so it’s all good,” he joked. “It’s over with. Glad I didn’t get hurt.”

Fans all across the majors often throw back home runs hit into the stands by opponents. Those tosses rarely come close to hitting players on the field. Yankees spokesman Jason Zillo said the 15-yearold fan who threw the ball was seated with his father.

Zillo said stadium security workers spoke to the pair and issued a warning, but they were not ejected from the ballpark. The funniest line came from New York first baseman Mark Teixeira, who ran into traffic while lunging into the stands on an un-

successful attempt to catch a foul pop in the ninth. “Tell the fans, you know, you can insult but you cannot assault,” he said, cracking up a pack of reporters. “We know you’re upset, we lost three in a row, we’re sorry, but just keep it to insults, not assaults.”

Don’t ask to bring your uninvited guest Dear Annie: My cousin is getting married soon, and another cousin’s girlfriend was invited. They have been dating for years, and I really like her. The problem is, my boyfriend was not invited, even though we, too, have been dating for years. Many of my family members have not yet met him. When I received my wedding invitation, it was addressed only to me. I was wondering whether it would be rude to ask my cousin whether I could bring my boyfriend. I don’t want to create any problems, but I’d like everyone to meet him. — Don’t Want to Cause Tension Dear Don’t: We commend you for being understanding. It is generally expected that both parties of an

established couple are invited, but we doublechecked with Lizzie Post of the Emily Post Institute, who said it is not proper for you to ask. Your cousin may not have room. We think it would be a good idea if you found a way to introduce your boyfriend to your cousin before the wedding. Perhaps the two of you could take the bridal couple out to dinner. You might also consider having a small

‘Chris Farley’ recalls SNL comedian “I Am Chris Farley” (8 p.m., Spike) recalls the energetic comedian and star of “Saturday Night Live,” ‘‘Tommy Boy” (5:30 p.m., Spike) and “Black Sheep.” Farley’s friends and comedy colleagues remember his fearless physicality and boundless talent. “Farley” follows his life and career from his youth in Wisconsin, performances at Marquette University and work with Chicago’s Second City. Farley died of a drug overdose in 1997 at the age of 33. No reflection on a talent lost so young is without tearful moments or cautionary tales. “SNL” original Dan Aykroyd reflects on Farley’s inability to tone things down in his private life, a story of excess that tragically paralleled that of Aykroyd’s friend and sidekick, John Belushi. Bob Odenkirk reflects on a performer’s need to be himself and to have quiet moments of reflection, something that young talents, particularly those anointed with sudden fame, don’t necessarily learn. The tone is not all misgiving and mourning. Friends and co-stars — including Christina Applegate, Tom Arnold, Bo Derek, Jon Lovitz, Jay Mohr, Mike Myers, Bob Saget, Adam Sandler, Molly Shannon and his frequent co-conspirator David Spade — celebrate Farley as the very best of their generation as well as a generous colleague and vulnerable spirit. Lorne Michaels, the shepherd of “SNL” comedy talent for more than four decades, recalls Farley’s exceptional gifts. ‘‘Farley” is the latest in Spike’s “I Am” series. Previous subjects include Evel Knievel, Steve McQueen, Dale Earnhardt and Bruce Lee.

Joan Crawford is TCM’s star of the day. Every day in August the network focuses on a single actress or actor as part of its annual “Summer Under the Stars” salute. Today’s marathon traces Crawford’s incredible longevity, from such late ’20s silent films as “The Unknown” (5 a.m.), “West Point” (6:15 a.m.) and “Our Dancing Daughters” (8 a.m.), to the classic 1939 comedy “The Women” (2:30 p.m.). The marathon also features Crawford’s descent into camp in her later years, when she appeared opposite Bette Davis in the lurid 1962 shocker “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” (12:45 a.m.) and finished her screen career in the cheap 1970 shocker “Trog” (3:15 a.m.).

Tonight’s other highlights

The top 14 perform on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox).

A terrorist poisons the governor’s daughter on “Scorpion” (8 p.m., CBS).

Dominic suffers on April’s big day on “Chasing Life” (8 p.m., ABC Family).

party to introduce him to your relatives. Dear Annie: My sister does not have her own email address or Facebook page. Everything is in her husband’s name. He sees everything I send to her. There are times when I would like to send stuff to my sister in private. I’m not asking her to hide anything, but I don’t see the point of him being able to read everything I send. Sometimes there are personal things between sisters that I’d prefer she not share. Knowing that he is looking at everything I send changes the way I write to her and makes it less sisterly. I don’t understand why she refuses to create her own accounts. What’s up with this? — Annoyed Sis

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Aug. 10: This year you often express an extremely nurturing quality. Your ability to communicate and spread your wings will be enhanced. If you are single, you will enjoy the company of a more vital and fun type of person than you have in the past. If you are attached, the two of you will want to recreate the beginning of your relationship. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Tone down your approach so that you receive more of what you want. Others no longer seem as responsive. Tonight: Head home early. Taurus (April 20-May 20) You have the ability to get past a problem that others don’t see. Be direct. Give it time. Tonight: Happy at home. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Be more direct when dealing with a loved one. Know when to say “no.” Tonight: Look at the budget. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You will want to see a situation differently from reality. Avoid making any decisions. Tonight: Beam in more of what you want. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) If a certain matter appears out of control, the time has come to get it under control. Tonight: Go for what you want.

Dear Annoyed: Have you asked your sister directly why her accounts are in her husband’s name? Perhaps it was a mutual decision allowing both of them to have access to each other’s communications and social media posts. This is sometimes a trust issue and not your business. Or maybe she can’t be bothered to set up her own and you can offer to do it for her. We understand that this annoys you, but it’s not your decision. If you need to say something to your sister privately, we recommend the old-fashioned way: Pick up the telephone or meet her for coffee.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be taken aback by what comes up. A friend means well but could create confusion. Tonight: Meet up with a close friend. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Take a risk today instead of postponing it. Timing is with you. Tonight: Till the wee hours. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your imagination seems to awaken. You could be taken aback by a problem that emerges.Tonight: All smiles. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Deferring to others allows more give-and-take. Reach out for someone who might be intimidated by you. Tonight: Opt for closeness. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Allow others to take the reins, and become more of an observer. Be more forthright. Tonight: Play it cool. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be more on top of a personal matter than you realize. Listen to feedback. Tonight: Allow your creativity flourish. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Allow more creativity to emerge. You often have many ideas but do not discuss them. Tonight: Enjoy the moment. — The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.
