Water park where boy died is only lightly regulated Schlitterbahn urged legislators to continue allowing ‘self-inspections’

amusement park rides, and the company lobbied legislators to help ensure that it remained responsible for its own inspections.

SEVERAL GEESE SOAR OVER A STRETCH OF GRASS TO A SMALL POND AT THE BAKER WETLANDS on Wednesday. In celebration of the Migratory Bird Act, in its centennial year, the Wetlands Discovery Center, 1365 North 1250 Road, will host the Wings Over Wetlands event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. today.

saved the snowy egret and other species from that fate, and a number of local conservation groups are teaming up to celebrate the occasion in style.

Today, in partnership with the Prairie Park Nature Center and Jayhawk Audubon Society, the Baker Wetlands Discovery Center will host a series of family-friendly activities, demonstrations and displays in honor of the landmark 1916 Migratory Bird Treaty.

“We thought we would use this as an opportunity to collaborate with our partners in environmental education to highlight this as a major conservation step that took place early on,” said Marty Birrell, nature education supervisor at Prairie Park Nature Center.

Wetlands Discovery Center, 1365 North 1250 Road, the event, which organizers are calling Wings Over Wetlands, will encourage folks to get outside too, with a bird-watching walk led by Baker Wetlands education coordinator Roger Boyd.

For conservation advocates like Birrell, the historical importance of the Migratory Bird Treaty — its creation led to the passage of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act in 1918 — is not to be understated. Its impact on conservation efforts, even 100 years later, extends even to the wetlands of northeast Kansas, Birrell said.

requirements for amusement rides in 2008, a Schlitterbahn lobbyist urged state lawmakers to allow large parks to handle their own inspections.

The resulting Kansas law and regulations contain provisions that the author of an older and tougher Florida law called “absurd.”

States’ regulations of waterslides and other amusement rides are facing scrutiny following the death Sunday of Caleb Thomas Schwab on the 168-foot “Verrückt” at the Schlitterbahn park. He was the son of state Rep. Scott Schwab, an Olathe Republican.

“I would assume and hope that the Legislature would spend significant time in looking at the issue, and we will, as an administration,” Republican Gov. Sam Brownback told reporters Friday. “I think that all needs to be looked at now in light of this tragedy.”

Authorities have not said exactly how the accident occurred. Schlitterbahn has said Verrückt — German for “insane” — will remain closed for the rest of the season.

Permanent rides in Kansas must be “selfinspected” annually by a qualified inspector, with the state conducting random audits of the resulting inspection records. A document released this week by the state Department of Labor showed all of Schlitterbahn’s rides passed private inspections on June 7.

The company’s other parks are in Texas, which also requires annual inspections by insurance

company inspectors.

Schlitterbahn spokeswoman Winter Prosapio declined to comment on questions related to the accident in Kansas City or the regulation of the park.

The federal Consumer Product Safety Commission said there have been four fatalities on waterslides since 2010, not including the one in Kansas.

David Mandt, a spokesman for the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, said the trade group estimates than 85 million people safely visit water parks each year, making an accident like the one in Kansas City “extremely rare.”

“We go to great lengths to ensure the safety of our guests,” Mandt said in an email to The Associated Press.

Brownback told reporters that he and his youngest son rode the Verrückt slide when it opened in 2014, and riders were weighed both at the bottom of its tower and at the top because the concern was ensuring that each raft had the proper amount of weight — between 400 pounds and 550 pounds — ahead of its long drop.

Rules vary by state The regulation of permanent amusement park rides is left to the states, and it’s inconsistent.

Ken Martin, a Richmond, Va.-based amusement park safety consultant, said New Jersey is the “No. 1” state for ride safety, in part because its program includes enforcement and fines, and

Pennsylvania is a “close second.”

According to the federal commission, New Jersey’s program has as an engineering staff that reviews rides, as well as licensed field inspectors.

Pennsylvania requires state-certified inspections when a permanent ride is set up and then “every 30 days thereafter.” The state also performs unannounced quality assurance inspections.

Among the states with no state oversight are Mississippi, Alabama, Nevada, South Dakota and Utah, according to the amusement park association.

Martin said Texas is “barely” better than Kansas about regulating amusement rides.

“As far as Kansas having a reputation in the industry, they’re known for having little to no regulations,” Martin said. “Been that way for years.”

Before 2009 — the same year Schlitterbahn opened its Kansas City park — Kansas had no state inspection requirements. The idea faced opposition from rural legislators worried about shutting down rides at county fairs and local festivals, said state Rep. Tom Sloan, a Lawrence Republican who first pushed for new rules in the late 1990s.

Kansas legislators approved the inspection law in 2008, after a study committee recommended it. The panel’s official report, drafted after an October 2007 hearing, said a Schlitterbahn lobbyist saw “no problem” with

lawmakers considering a requirement but added, “the company would like a ‘Disney exception’” for large parks, allowing “company inspection, in conjunction with the state.”

The lobbyist, Mike Hutfles, did not return telephone messages seeking comment, and Prosapio declined comment.

Before the Verrückt slide opened in 2014, Schlitterbahn head designer John Schooley told CNN, “Our park in Kansas City doesn’t have a height restriction so we decided to put it right here.”

Schlitterbahn hopes to build a new park in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., but it won’t replicate the Verrückt there, because building heights are restricted at its chosen site.

The Kansas law allows local officials to impose safety requirements, but Wyandotte County only checks rides when they’re constructed to see whether building codes have been followed.

Local government spokesman Mike Taylor said it wouldn’t be costeffective to keep a highly trained inspector on staff or retainer because of a single park.

“It would make more sense for that to be based at the State level,” Taylor said in an email.

But Brad Burke, the Kansas Department of Labor’s deputy secretary and chief counsel, said the agency has the authority only to conduct audits of records.

Kansas parks are required to keep their records only for a year.

Former Florida Senate Minority Leader Steve Geller, a Democrat who wrote his state’s older and tougher law, said such a lax record-keeping requirement is “absurd.”

Testing concerns The Kansas law calls for annual “non-destructive testing” of rides, with ultrasound, radiography or other technology. Burke said the definition also allows visual inspections, and the general practice is to see that a ride operator does the testing recommended in the manufacturer’s manual.

“I’ve seen some manuals where they say the testing we recommend is that park employees ride the ride the morning of operations, prior to allowing the public to operate,” Burke said. “Some of them require visual inspection.”

In a letter Thursday, a department official told the Schlitterbahn park’s general manager that a post-accident records audit confirmed that nondestructive testing “is not required by the manufacturer of each ride.” The letter said Schlitterbahn met all regulatory requirements.

Geller called relying on visual inspections “ridiculous,” saying stresses on metal and even cracks aren’t caught that way, particularly if a ride is painted over.

In Kansas, a park must shut down a ride if there is a serious injury and have it inspected again.

The park also must report the incident to the ride’s manufacturer — but not the state.

The Department of Labor has 18 inspectors who do record audits for rides at more than 110 fair, festival, carnival and amusement park sites, but they also have other, larger workplace inspection duties.

“We are constrained by the Constitution, as far as search and seizure,” Burke said. “We can’t just force our way into places unless we have authority to do it — which is a good thing.”

Appeals court: For binding kids, mom should lose parental rights

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Topeka — The Kansas Court of Appeals agreed Friday that a woman who was arrested in Lawrence in 2012 for endangering the life of her children should have her parental rights terminated.

Deborah Gomez, of Northlake, Ill., and her husband, Adolfo Gomez, were arrested in June that year after police found two of their children, ages 5 and 7 at the time, blindfolded and bound with duct tape outside of

The couple were located inside the store with a shopping cart that contained two more rolls of duct tape, two tarps and a softball bat.

The couple said at the time that they were traveling from Illinois

to Arizona because they believed the world was coming to an end and their family home in Illinois was possessed by demons.

The children were later found to be “Children in Need of Care” and taken into state custody.

Both parents later pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of endangering a child.

Adolfo Gomez also was convicted and sentenced on two felony counts of child abuse.

with a red-carpet entrance — complete with cheering fans — courtesy of Educate Lawrence, welcomed teachers returning to their first professional development day of the year.

After a rousing performance from Free State High School band students, Superintendent Kyle Hayden addressed the packed gym, encouraging teachers and staff to look at the challenges facing community schools as opportunities for growth.

“I believe in public education, now more than ever,” Hayden said, eliciting cheers from the audience. “In spite of what we sometimes feel is a lack of support, we all should believe in public education and why we’re here.

I believe we’re all here to make a difference, every single one of us in this room.”

Hayden and Lawrence Education Association president Laurie Folsom, who also gave a brief speech, both referenced the long-running debate over state school funding that at one point this summer threatened to shut down schools across Kansas.

In his address, Hayden acknowledged the “angst” felt by some educators in the wake of the turmoil,

will be the focus of debate in 2017, when a new, and likely more moderate-leaning Legislature comes into office.

Brownback is scheduled to speak today at former President Ronald Reagan’s ranch during ceremonies marking the 35th anniversary of the passage of Reagan’s federal tax cuts, something Brownback said was an inspiration for the tax plan he championed in 2012.

“We’re going against the national curve of reduction of small-business numbers,” Brownback said. “Kansas is seeing a growth in small-business numbers.”

Specifically, Brownback said, new businesses and new business wealth have been moving from Missouri into Kansas.

And he said that since 2014, the state has started seeing a net migration of people moving into the state instead of people moving out.

But then, continuing in the same train of thought, Brownback shifted the conversation to the recent primary elections,

The messages flowed in for several weeks and Gronback said she was eventually able to identify Dowdell as the sender.

At the time he was a student at Lawrence’s Veritas Christian School, she said.

Gronback said she both alerted the school’s faculty and filed a complaint with the Lawrence Police Department in January.

She also offered a packet documenting the online correspondence.

Kelli Huslig, Veritas administrator, said in January that she would not discuss student-related issues.

In April, Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson told Gronback his office had enough evidence to file the misdemeanor charge against Dowdell. But if the office was to move forward, Gronback would

LAWRENCE PUBLIC SCHOOLS STAFF CONGREGATE IN THE COMMONS AREA of Free State High School Friday morning after a back-to-school kickoff event in the school’s gym. Friday marked the first day for teachers and staff at public schools across Lawrence. which included an ultimately rejected bill that would have imposed a 0.5 percent cut to every Kansas school district’s general operating grant. Under the bill, the Lawrence district would have lost an estimated $284,000 in general operating funds.

But Hayden, who was named superintendent after predecessor Rick Doll announced his resignation in March, remains hopeful after his first months on the job. In his appointment as superintendent, Hayden embarked on a districtwide

“listening tour” last spring, culminating in discussions and feedback from teachers, staff and parents at all 21 Lawrence public schools.

Throughout his talks, Hayden saw several recurring themes, among them the need for better communication and collaboration (in that spirit, he also invited an incoming senior from each Lawrence high school to speak onstage Friday), as well as the sense that school staff may feel overwhelmed at times by the “high expectations” set by themselves

“

and the district.

Although he understands that sentiment, Hayden also said, essentially, that big goals can often lead to big payoffs.

“We have a lot to celebrate in Lawrence public schools. We’ve drastically reduced the number of nongraduates in the past seven years,” he said. “In 2009, 185 seniors did not graduate with their class.

Last year, it was reduced to 56 students.”

But, he added, “We don’t want to stop there.”

Hayden outlined several goals-in-progress for the

L awrence J ournal -W orld 2016-2017 school year, including the implementation of the 2013 bond issue to Lawrence’s secondary schools, efforts to close the district’s achievement gap and the rollout of new technology in schools that will ideally arm students with the “21st century skills and strategies they need to compete globally.”

As part of that initiative, the district will provide iPads to every middle school student in Lawrence, and is also launching a device pilot program at both high schools this fall. It’s not about gadgets and the latest tech trends, Hayden insists — it’s about making sure all students, regardless of race, gender, religion or ethnicity, have the chance to succeed.

“We have an opportunity right now,” he told the crowd. “We can leverage the use of technology, of these devices, to level the educational playing field.

“We’re talking about equity here,” he added.

“We’re talking about opportunity.”

that we’ve improved the pension system in the state? Generally it’s K-12 funding, and that overall during my administration has gone up, and still is higher than when I started.”

In other matters, Brownback repeated his position on Medicaid expansion, saying he is not completely opposed to it, but will only consider such a plan once the state eliminates waiting lists for Medicaideligible people seeking home and communitybased services.

He also said any Medicaid expansion plan must have a work requirement for able-bodied adults, and it must have a sustainable funding stream.

When asked whether he and other Republicans were getting nervous about presidential candidate Donald Trump, in light of a string of inflammatory statements that Trump has made in recent days, Brownback said he still supports the GOP nominee.

“I know who Hillary Clinton will appoint to the Supreme Court, and she’ll move it left,” he said. “I don’t think there’s any question about that, and so the elections are about choices. Donald Trump was not my first choice.”

Brownback had officially endorsed Florida Sen. Marco Rubio in the Republican caucuses in Kansas.

And the governor offered support for an idea discussed earlier in the week by the Kansas Board of Regents of establishing a dental school at KU Medical Center.

“I think it’s a good prospect for us, long term, and I think we’re going to have needs, but people have got to work it through the process,” he said. “You’ve got capacity at KU Med to be able to get into this at a lower cost.”

He noted that with a new education building under construction, the medical school will have space available in the older building, and it already has faculty that teach some of the basic health courses required in dentistry.

“That seems to me something we really should be looking at,” he said. “These are things that take years to get in place, but I think there’s some good capacity there and that’s why I’ve supported it and I think we ought to continue to look at it.”

It feels like it’s taken a really long time to get here, and I am glad my complaint has been taken seriously, and that there was enough evidence to charge him.”

Mom

Deborah Gomez served approximately six months in jail before she was released.

Two years later, in October 2014, the state filed a motion to terminate the couple’s parental rights with all four of their children, including three daughters and a son. Among other factors, prosecutors noted that they had convictions in Kansas for endangering children, and both had prior convictions on similar charges in another state.

After a trial in 2015, Douglas County District Judge Peggy Kittel granted the motion.

Both parents appealed that decision, but Adolfo Gomez’s appeal was thrown out on procedural grounds. Deborah Gomez claimed that the evidence

was insufficient to prove she was an unfit mother, and that she had ineffective counsel.

While her appeal was pending, the oldest of the four children reached the age of majority. The youngest child is now 9 or 10, based on the year of birth listed in the opinion. One of the children eventually moved to Arizona to live with other family there, but the other children remained in Kansas.

During trial on the state’s motion, Christina Maki, the family’s initial case manager, testified that Deborah Gomez had moved back to Arizona after her release and that she had family and a support system there.

Sagan Smith, a subsequent case manager, testified that Deborah Gomez had successfully completed many of the case plan’s expectations, and that she returned to Kansas for monthly supervised visits with two

That’s not to say we shouldn’t look at things, because we should. And I’ll work with the Legislature.”

But when asked how both of those assessments of the economy could be true at the same time, Brownback said he saw no contradiction.

“Those are not opposed views,” he said.

“The base of the Kansas economy is the old threelegged stool (agriculture, oil and gas production,

and aviation), and that continues to be the base of the economy. And that base has really been struggling. The Bureau of Economic (Analysis) said we had contraction last year, primarily built off of ag and oil.”

The economic growth the state has seen, Brownback said, has been primarily in the Kansas City area, which he said has a much different and more diversified economic base than the rest of the state.

Meanwhile, Brownback repeatedly shrugged off suggestions made by many other observers that the defeat of so many conservative Republicans in the Aug. 2 primary was a repudiation of him or his administration. Instead, he suggested voters were frustrated about the budget and school finance.

“Generally it’s school funding, is the issue that’s cited,” he said.

“That’s the frustrating piece. Are they frustrated

have to commit to coming to the United States, mostly on her own dime, in the event of a trial.

Gronback told Branson she would appear if the case goes to trial, but the ordeal would present a significant financial hardship.

Enter Ron Wilson, a Lawrence area resident willing to help out.

In June, Wilson offered to pay Gronback’s way to Kansas. She graciously accepted, although she remains shy of the required funds.

If she’s required to come to Kansas Gronback said she’d feel much more comfortable bringing a “support person” and that will increase the trip’s cost.

As such Gronback set up a crowdfunding account

to bridge the rest of the gap. That account can be found online at generosity. com/fundraising/supportrachel-s-fight-against-online-harassment.

Gronback said she heard about Dowdell’s arrest, but nothing official otherwise.

“It feels like it’s taken a really long time to get here, and I am glad my complaint has been taken seriously, and that there was enough evidence to charge him,” she said.

If Dowdell is convicted of the charge, he could face up to 12 months in jail and/ or a fine of up to $2,500.

BRIEFLY Police: Man stabbed, suffers minor injury A 49-year-old man suffered a minor injury late Thursday night after he was stabbed, police said.

Around 11:14 p.m., police received a report of a stabbing in the 1600 block of West 23rd Street, said Lawrence Police Sgt. Laurie Powell.

The victim told police he was stabbed during an “altercation” at a nearby apartment complex, Powell said. At one point he became uncooperative with police, she added.

The man was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment, Powell said.

A suspect has neither been identified nor located, Powell said. Police are currently investigating the incident.

Further information was not immediately available.

of the children here.

Other case managers testified that Deborah Gomez had moved back to Kansas in the spring of 2014. But the foster mother of two of the children and other social service officials testified that they did not believe Gomez was ready to resume her role as a parent.

In a 20-page unpublished opinion, which only refers to the parties by their initials, or as “Mother” and “Father,” a three-judge panel of the Kansas Court of Appeals rejected Gomez’s arguments and upheld the District Court’s decision.

“There is clear and convincing evidence Mother was not presently fit and able to care for the Children and would not be able to care for the Children in the foreseeable future,” the panel said.

l As a man who lives in a family with quilters, I can tell you there is some sewing table gossip that will get you a needle in the nose if you repeat it.

But I think I can safely report this, and technically it is not gossip anymore: Lawrence soon will have another national fabric store chain as part of its retail mix.

For weeks, I’ve been reporting on speculation that Jo-Ann Fabric and Crafts was going to locate at 27th and Iowa streets in the location of the now defunct Hancock Fabrics store. Well, that speculation ended up being accurate. Jo-Ann has put up a “coming soon” sign at the location, and construction work is underway.

We’ll see what type of store it ends up being. JoAnn seems to be a chain that is a bit broader in scope than Hancock was.

According to its website, Jo-Ann stocks not only fabric and sewing supplies but also scrapbooking materials, art and painting supplies, jewelry-making accessories, baking and party needs and several other categories.

The Indoor Aquatic Center, 4706 Overland Drive, will close for annual maintenance for more than three weeks beginning on Sunday. Because the closure is a week earlier than the Indoor Aquatic Center typically closes in the summer, the Outdoor Aquatic Center will adjust to accommodate.

The Indoor Aquatic Center will be closed Aug. 14- Sept. 5 for annual maintenance, as well as facilities improvements.

The annual shutdown usually closes the facility for two weeks, allowing staff to perform maintenance that cannot be done when the facility is in use. This year, an additional week was added to install a new HVAC unit and ductwork. The center will reopen on Sept. 6.

Beginning Monday, aquatic classes, swim teams and lessons typically held at the Indoor Aquatic Center will be relocated to the Outdoor Aquatic Center, 727 Kentucky St. Participants will be notified of the changes. The outdoor center will also hold expanded hours to accommodate public swimming: MON-FRI, AUG. 15-19 Lap Swim/ workouts: 5:15 a.m.-12:45 p.m. and 1-8:45 p.m.

Stepfather’s bullying tactics are red flag Dear Annie

in teasing him until he cries. How do you explain to a young child why Grandpa is mean?

(I suspect he wasn’t too nice to his own children, hence the reason they don’t come around very much).

Whenever company visits, he is on his best behavior, but as soon as they leave, he’s back to being nasty. I live upstairs and only come downstairs to fix meals and to clean the kitchen.

I have resorted to ignor-

AMC airs a thriller for thinkers A sexy secret agent, gorgeous locations, a cunning villain and a story based on a John le Carre novel, ‘‘The Night Manager’’ hit a sweet spot with viewers and critics when it aired some months back.

A thinking viewer’s thriller with plenty of eye candy, this miniseries was hard to resist.

AMC will air all six episodes in marathon fashion (7 p.m., TV-14), allowing some viewers to see what they missed and others to return to what they loved.

T o m H i d dleston stars as Jonathan Pine, the hotel employee and title character who becomes embroiled in the personal life of international arms dealer and cold-blooded businessman Richard Roper (Hugh Laurie). ‘‘The Night Manager’’ has been nominated for 12 Emmy Awards. Don’t miss it.

O A new season of ‘‘Oprah: Where Are They Now’’ (9 p.m., OWN) invites viewers to catch up with ‘‘I Dream of Jeannie’’ star Barbara Eden. More than 50 years have passed since the premiere of the silly show about a NASA astronaut (Larry Hagman) with his own subservient genie. ‘‘Jeannie’’ was one of a spate of series about female characters endowed with remarkable powers who catered to far more pedestrian men.

Samantha (Elizabeth Montgomery) on ‘‘Bewitched’’ could summon the dark arts with the wiggle of her nose, but she preferred to mix martinis for her advertising executive husband.

Another show of the period that’s been all but forgotten but is now available to stream on Hulu is ‘‘My Living Doll,’’ about government scientist Dr. Bob McDonald (Bob Cummings), who has the peculiar job of hiding a curvaceous robot named Rhoda, played by a pre’’Catwoman’’ Julie Newmar.

Rhoda is much less subservient than Eden’s Jeannie. She was coolly logical and dismissive, much like Greta Garbo in ‘‘Ninotchka.’’ It’s been said that Newmar’s character coined the phrase ‘‘it does not compute’’ to respond to McDonald’s lessthan-sensible dialogue. Logical to a fault, and completely unaware of her beauty, she clearly treated Cummings’ character like a fool. Perhaps that explains why CBS canceled the show after 26 episodes and why ‘‘I Dream of Jeannie’’ ran for five years and is fondly remembered after more than half a century.

Tonight's other highlights

ing him, but the final straw came when he complained that I should be paying rent. When they asked me to move in, I asked how much rent they wanted me to pay and was told that in exchange for being there for them, I could live there rent-free.

I am at my wits’ end.

It has come to the point where I actually hate the man. My siblings and I have checked into assisted living, but we don’t think our mother will leave her home, so I’m stuck caring for the old tyrant. At this point in time, because of various reasons, I can’t move.

I’m tired of walking on eggshells and waiting for the next tirade. What do I do now? — Had Enough in the Midwest Dear Had Enough: Your stepfather’s behavior toward your son is a billowing red flag. A

For Saturday, Aug. 13: This year you head in a new direction. Your creativity energizes you in various environments. You could reverse a difficult situation involving a child or loved one. Your dynamic energy and willingness to let go of judgments mark your behavior. If you are single, you easily meet people through your interests. If you are attached, your dedication to each other becomes even more obvious.

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) ++++ Let go of financial concerns for now. Tonight: Be more forthright about what you want.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Do not underestimate the effect that a special person has on your life. Tonight: Be responsive.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ Instead of taking the lead, let someone else call the shots today. Tonight: All smiles.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ Just smile and throw yourself into the task at hand. Tonight: Join your friends at a favorite haunt.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++++ Your spirit and energy seem to be very appealing to others. Tonight: Let the games continue.

classic bully, he has decided to prey upon the weakest, most vulnerable one around. For now, that’s your son, but eventually, it will be your mother. Thank goodness she has you looking out for her.

Unless your stepfather is being outright abusive, you’d have trouble getting Adult Protective Services to intervene. For now, your best option might be to continue keeping a close eye on the situation. If it’s financially feasible, consider renting an apartment nearby so your son doesn’t live in that environment, and pool funds with your siblings to hire a part-time or overnight caretaker to help out.

Dear Annie: For almost a year now, I have been a caregiver to my elderly mother and her husband. My mother has dementia, but she really is no trouble to care for. The problem is her husband. He is demanding, controlling and just plain mean. It doesn’t matter what I do; in his mind, it’s not right. And I get blamed for things that I didn’t even do.

When I was asked to move in, I had grave reservations about doing so. Everybody thought it was a great idea, except one sister, who has also endured this abuse.

I could handle this a lot easier if the man were my father, but we’re only related by marriage. He has grown children, but they don’t live close by, so that doesn’t help the situation.

To each his own Olympics Washington — You may be thrilled by the feats of Katie Ledecky, mesmerized by the grace of the women gymnasts, startled by Rio spectators mocking U.S. soccer star Hope Solo with chants of “Zika! Zika!” (the first recorded instance, noted one wit, of a stadium rocking to the invocation of a virus). Allow me, however, to interrupt the prepackaged, heart-tugging, tape-delayed Olympic coverage to bring you the real sporting news of the year.

It has just been announced that on Nov. 11 in New York City the World Chess Championship will begin.

You scoff, of course. For years, I’ve had to put up with amused puzzlement at my taste in entertainment. (Old joke: How do you do the wave at a chess match? With your eyebrows.) But I remain undaunted.

True, chess is not an Olympic sport. But it should be. In 1984, when challenger Garry Kasparov forced that championship match into 17 draws in a row — each about five hours of unbearable, unrelenting concentration — world champion Anatoly Karpov was so physically and mentally drained (he lost 22 pounds) that the Kremlin pressured the World Chess Federation to stop the match, thereby saving Soviet-favorite Karpov from forfeiting the title to the brash, free-thinking, halfJewish Kasparov.

My first tournament — the

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

True, chess is not an Olympic sport. But it should be.”

2002 Atlantic Open, a weekend of all-day pressure so intense that I left in a near-catatonic Karpovian state — was also my last. I have stuck to casual fiveminute “blitz” chess ever since.

My winnings — a $150 check that remains framed and forever uncashed — hang as a reminder never to do that again.

And while chess’ governing body cannot match the International Olympic Committee for corruption, the World Chess Federation more than makes up for that in weirdness. Its president, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, former president of Russia’s republic of Kalmykia, is not only a reliable Moscow toady (sanctioned by the Treasury Department in November 2015), but a nutcase who insists he’s been abducted by aliens. They wore yellow suits.

So why am I so excited about

the upcoming match in New York? Who goes to a chess game anyway?

I do. Twice, in fact, in the early 1990s when the championship was also played in New York (the 1995 match on the observation deck of the World Trade Center). I drove from Washington both times with a couple of friends, to the consternation of the rest of our acquaintances, who thought we were certifiable.

They didn’t understand that we don’t actually sit and watch the game. Instead, we go to the grandmaster room where the greatest chess minds in the world crowd around a few drop-down demonstration boards, trading furious in-game commentary on the boneheadedness of the latest move and the cosmic brilliance of their own proposed ninemove counterattack.

My friends and I were barely hanging on trying to follow the dazzling riffs flung about by the immortals around us. Not to denigrate the elegance of the balance beam or the beauty of the pole vault, but that experience was (as we used to say when the world was young) mind-blowing.

Twenty-one years is a long time to wait to have your mind blown again. But there’s a more mundane reason for making the trip this time: a compelling storyline with a touch of the Cold War tension that made the 1972 Bobby Fischer-Boris Spassky match such an international

sensation.

The reigning world champion is Magnus Carlsen, a 25-year-old Norwegian who, unlike Fischer, is quite normal.

He sports a winning personality and such good looks that he does commercials for a European clothing line.

His challenger is the classic Russian heavy, Sergey Karjakin, who (reports The New York Times) is a fan of both Vladimir Putin and the invasion of Crimea and who knocked off two brilliant Americans to get to the title fight.

Not exactly U.S.-USSR 1972.

But Norway-Russia 2016 does have its charms, given Putin’s threats and intrusions into the Baltics and Scandinavia. Go Oslo!

I do concede that since Fischer-Spassky, chess has lost much of its mystique. The fall can be dated to May 11, 1997, when IBM’s Deep Blue beat Kasparov, widely considered the greatest human ever to play the game.

Today we don’t even bother with the man-machine contest.

No human can beat the best software. The ultimate world series is between computer programs. And machines don’t sweat.

Or strive, suffer or exult. Humans do. So I’ll join the fun and cheer the Olympians. It’ll help pass the time until the main event Nov. 11.

Iran deal: Ransom by another name You’ve probably heard the very old riddle: When is a door not a door? When it’s ajar.

An updated version might go like this: When is a ransom not a ransom? When the Obama administration says it isn’t.

President Obama and his State Department want us to believe that $400 million in foreign cash that was flown into Iran under cover of darkness on an unmarked cargo plane was merely money “owed” to the world’s No. 1 sponsor of terrorism from a failed arms deal negotiated with the Shah of Iran more than 35 years ago.

waiting for another plane so if that plane doesn’t come, we never let (you) go.’”

What was the “other plane” carrying that was so important to the Iranian government that only its arrival would trigger the release of Abedini and the three other hostages, and its failure to land would keep them in captivity? Food? Toilet paper? Western movies? Or money?

It is a sad day when one must choose between believing the American president or the Iranian government that has vowed to wipe out Israel and then come after America and subject the world to fundamentalist Islam. The administration refuses to say how many Americans have died directly or indirectly from Iran’s support of terrorism.

The Washington Free Beacon reported last fall that the

The president’s explanation is that the money was part of the nuclear deal reached with Iran and the first installment of a $1.7 billion settlement resolving claims at an international tribunal at The Hague. The president says settling the claim now is actually saving money, the full amount of which might have had to be paid if the case were fully litigated before the court.

We are to ignore a statement by one of the four Americans held hostage by the Iranian regime (one of them since 2011) before being released in January. Christian pastor Saeed Abedini told Fox Business Channel last week: “I just remember the night at the airport sitting for hours and hours there, and I asked police, ‘Why are you not letting us go?’” Abedini said the policeman answered, “We are

administration has stonewalled a request from Congress to release figures on the number of Americans and Israelis killed

by Iran and its terror proxies since the 1979 Iranian revolution. Undoubtedly this was to ease opposition to the deal with Iran not to proceed with the creation of nuclear weapons, which they most assuredly are creating in secret, or will create when the “restrictions” expire in a maximum of 15 years, depending on one’s interpretation of the deal. Iran is permitted to enrich uranium in the meantime.

Writing in The Wall Street Journal last week, former Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey thought he knew the reason for the foreign cash and the secrecy behind the January transfer of funds: “There is principally one entity within the Iranian government that has

need of untraceable funds. That entity is the Quds Force — the branch of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps focusing particularly on furthering the regime’s goals worldwide by supporting and conducting terrorism.”

The Iranian regime clearly sees the $400 million as ransom for the illegally held Americans.

A video showing pallets of foreign cash has surfaced on the Internet. The administration won’t confirm that is the money it sent, but does it matter? The money was sent.

Consider the definition of “ransom” and whether this fits what occurred in January: “the redemption of a prisoner, slave, or kidnapped person ... for a price.”

A rose is a rose is a rose. And so is ransom by whatever name one may disingenuously call it.

Library represented Kansas on the list. That’s in addition to the previously reported award from the American Institute of Architects and the American Library Association. I know when the design of the library was unveiled it wasn’t universally loved — although, what is in Lawrence? — but you could now make the case that the Lawrence Public Library is becoming the most critically acclaimed piece of architecture in the city.

About the Lawrence library, the website says “it used to be a big, gray, concrete slab.” It notes, however, that the building was redesigned in 2014 and now sports a “sleek, modern look.”

“Now it is like a community center,” the website reads. “It has quiet spaces, lounges, and brings people together on the lawn for outdoor events.”

This list is just the latest the library has landed on. The website Tech Insider created a list of the most beautiful libraries in each state.

Clinton releases 2015 tax returns Democratic nominee amps up pressure on Trump to do the same Heidi M. Przybyla USA TODAY

Hillary Clinton released her 2015 tax return Friday as her campaign dials up the pressure on Republican Donald Trump to do the same.

Clinton, who filed jointly with her husband, paid an effective federal income tax rate of 34.2% last year, and the Clintons donated 9.8% of their adjusted gross income to charity, according to the campaign.

The Clintons took in $10.6 million in income in 2015, a majority of which came from paid speeches by Bill Clinton, and $3 million came from book royalties.

Their 2015 income was a little more than a third of what it was the year before and about half of their haul in 2007, the last full year in which Hillary Clinton was running for president. Including state and local taxes, the pair paid an effective rate of 43.2% in taxes in 2015.

Trump repeatedly has rebuffed calls to release his most recent tax returns because they are under federal audit. Yet he’s also refused to release prior returns that would provide information about his income and foreign holdings as well as charitable giving.

Liquid-filled canyons discovered on Saturn’s moon Titan Mary Bowerman USA TODAY Network

Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, is home to massive canyons flooded with liquid hydrocarbons, according to a new study.

Researchers analyzed 2013 data from NASA’s Cassini Spacecraft to determine that dark channels branching out from Titan’s Ligeia Mar sea are filled with liquid, according to the study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

The research marks the first time scientists have evidence there are liquid-filled canyons on

Titan, NASA said in a statement.

“The branching channels appear dark in radar images, much like Titan’s methane-rich seas,” according to NASA. “Previously it wasn’t clear if the dark material was liquid or merely saturated sediment.”

The canyons are 790 to 1,870 feet deep in some areas, according to NASA. While researchers aren’t sure what process took place to create the canyons on Titan’s surface, they may have been formed like the Grand Canyon, with a river cutting deep into the surface as the terrain rose around it.

“Earth is warm and rocky, with

rivers of water, while Titan is cold and icy, with rivers of methane.

And yet it’s remarkable that we find such similar features on both worlds,” Alex Hayes, co-author of the study, said in a statement.

The Cassini mission arrived in 2004 at Titan, a haze-shrouded moon of Saturn some 3,200 miles wide.

Crusted with hydrocarbon ice and laced with lakes of liquid methane and ethane, Titan’s thick atmosphere has enticed scientists who view it as an example of conditions at the dawn of the solar system.

Murder conviction overturned in case profiled by Netflix Judge cites multiple rights violations by police and defense Tom Kertscher and John Diedrich

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Brendan Dassey, who was convicted along with his uncle, Steven Avery, in the murder of Teresa Halbach, had that conviction overturned Friday by a federal magistrate judge.

The ruling in a case made famous in the Netflix series Making a Murderer could result in Dassey getting a new trial or being freed from prison. It gives prosecutors 90 days to decide whether to retry Dassey, although an appeal could extend the proceedings.

In his 91-page ruling, U.S. Magistrate Judge William Duffin was highly critical of investigators, Dassey’s attorney and the state courts on how they handled the case, concluding Dassey’s constitutional rights were violated.

Duffin found that investigators made false promises to Dassey during multiple interrogations.

“These repeated false promises, when considered in conjunction with all relevant factors, most especially Dassey’s age, intellectual deficits, and the absence of a supportive adult, rendered Dassey’s confession involuntary under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals’ decision to the contrary was an unreasonable application of clearly established federal law,” Duffin wrote.

MILWAUKEE

A review of transcripts and several hours of recordings of the interrogations of Dassey, as well as interviews with legal experts, shows that: uDassey — who at the time was a learning-disabled 16-yearold with no police record — was repeatedly questioned without an attorney by the prosecution’s investigators, who allegedly “fed” him facts of the crime that he eventually confessed to. uDassey’s first lawyer not only allowed Dassey to be questioned alone but had his own investigator pressure Dassey to confess.

Moreover, unlike Avery, whose conviction was based largely on DNA evidence, no physical evidence linked Dassey to the slaying of Halbach. The 25-year-old photographer was last seen alive with Avery, outside his Manitowoc County trailer, on Halloween 2005. After separate trials in 2007, both Avery and Dassey were sentenced to life in prison.

Dassey had argued that his constitutional rights were violated in the way that the case against him was investigated.

The cases of Dassey and Avery gained worldwide attention after the December 2015 release of Making a Murderer.

The attorney who handled the Dassey appeal for the state declined to comment Friday. A spokesman with the Wisconsin Department of Justice, Johnny Koremenos, said in an email, “As we are currently reviewing Magistrate Judge Duffin’s order, we have no comment at this time.”

Messages to Dassey’s attorneys were not immediately returned Friday.

Clinton video slams Trump on refusal to release returns v CONTINUED FROM 1B

GREGG NEWTON, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Donald Trump says President Obama founded the Islamic State. Amid a storm of criticism, he says he’s being sarcastic.

Trump says Obama-ISIS was ‘sarcasm’ GOP nominee chides press for failure to grasp his meaning Cooper Allen

The media is “working so hard and so seriously to try and figure me out. They can’t!”

USA TODAY

Donald Trump

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has raised eyebrows the last couple of days with his repeated assertions that President Obama founded the Islamic State.

Trump has also labeled his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, as “co-founder” or “most valuable player” of the terror group, which is also known as ISIS or ISIL. That, of course, isn’t true — Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, leader of the Islamic State, is thought to have shaped the terror group into its current form — and Friday morning, Trump blasted CNN (and presumably, by extension, other media outlets and critics) for not discerning his “sarcasm.”

In a tweet, the GOP nominee said, “Ratings challenged @CNN reports so seriously that I call President Obama (and Clinton) ‘the founder’ of ISIS, & MVP.”

Later, during a rally in Erie, Pa., Trump reiterated that he was “being sarcastic,” then added: “But not that sarcastic, to be honest with you.”

He added (in all caps): “THEY DON’T GET SARCASM?” As recently as Thursday, however, Trump’s sarcasm was not exactly readily apparent.

In an interview with radio host Hugh Hewitt, the real estate mogul was asked whether he actually meant that Obama “created the vacuum” that led to conditions in which the Islamic State could emerge.

“No, I meant he’s the founder of ISIS,” Trump told Hewitt. “I do.”

In a possibly related followup tweet Friday morning, Trump hit media personalities who were “working so hard and so seriously to try and figure me out.”

“They can’t!” he added.

rector for the Clinton campaign, said in a statement.

“In stark contrast, Donald Trump is hiding behind fake excuses and backtracking on his previous promises to release his tax returns,” Palmieri added. “He has failed to provide the public with the most basic financial information disclosed by every major candidate in the last 40 years.

What is he trying to hide?”

Trump has said “there’s nothing to learn” from his returns, and he has released a personal financial statement, which is legally required.

His campaign has said his net worth is in excess of $10 billion.

Every major party nominee since the late 1970s has released tax returns before Election Day. A year ago, Clinton released past years’ returns, which showed the couple earned just more than $28 million in 2014 and $27 million in 2013, more than double the $13 million they earned in 2010 when she was still serving as secretary of State.

The Clintons earned $21 million in 2007, as Hillary Clinton, then a U.S. senator, was running for president. Bill Clinton earned $10 million from speeches and $4 million in book sales that year, but their combined income dropped to $5.5 million in 2008.

The release coincides with a new Clinton campaign Web video featuring Republicans pressuring their nominee to release his returns. The video includes 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Trump’s primary rival.

“We will only really know if he’s a real deal or a phony if he releases his tax returns,” Romney says, suggesting maybe Trump isn’t as rich as he claims, hasn’t paid the tax rate Americans would expect him to or hasn’t donated to veterans and other charities as he has said he has.

“For the last 30 or 40 years, every candidate for president has released their tax returns, and I think Donald Trump should, as well,” McConnell says.

“He doesn’t want to do it because presumably there’s something in there that is bad,” Cruz says.

UNIQUE COLLABORATIVE KEEPS RIO SAFE v CONTINUED FROM 1B

tioning in an ongoing investigation that targets suspected sympathizers with the Islamic State. Brazilian authorities gave few details on the arrests, only saying that the goal was “to guarantee the security of the Olympic Games and citizens’ well-being.”

In a similar series of arrests in July, a prosecutor confirmed that their tip came from the FBI. “When you understand that an event like the Olympics is a global one, I think then it’s the responsibility of everybody to support its security,” said Valdecy Urquiza Jr., federal police commissioner and the head of Interpol Brazil.

What’s unique about Rio’s International Police Cooperation Center (IPCC), according to Urquiza, is actively sharing information rather than the host nation’s police informing visiting agents once a day in briefings of occurrences, as he said was the case in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Brazilian police opened the special control room for international law enforcement to work on its premises around the clock.

In addition to Rio’s IPCC, which hosts representatives from 31 countries, a corollary center in Brasília pools intelligence data to monitor foreigners arriving in Brazil. Another in the capital city focuses on counter-terrorism, drawing on nine countries which Urquiza said have the best knowhow in the field. A final collaboration unit set up on the tri-border area in Iguaçú Falls joins Argentine, Paraguayan and Brazilian police to monitor land crossings at Brazil’s busiest border station during the Games.

“There is nothing that needed to be done that the Brazilian government didn’t do related to this subject,” said Urquiza. “Brazil

CHRISTOPHER HANEWINCKEL, USA TODAY

Brazil police take security seriously, as this spectator at the Sambodromo arena found out. rushed and approved anti-terror legislation. We set up specialized units for this activity. Our teams were trained both in Brazil and abroad. We established partnerships with police forces that best have a handle on this issue.”

Those foreign police in Brazil for the Games are not armed with weapons — Urquiza said only a few dignataries came accompanied by such security — but instead are armed with information, actively relaying intelligence from their countries’ surveillance and law enforcement agencies to nerve centers here.

Rio’s Olympics presented a curious cross of events for observers assessing the risk the host and its visitors faced for the kind of terror threats that have alarmed populations from Bangladesh to San Bernadino in recent months.

Brazil has no history of terrorism committed by Islamic extremists.

Its long-standing public security fears instead revolve around domestic issues, like lethal robberies, and urban drug war violence.

But Games targets for extremists are plentiful: One-third of the countries participating in the Games are also members of the international coalition fighting the Islamic State. Participants include France, Belgium, and the United States, where “lone-wolf” attacks have raised the concern about terror committed by an individual with merely online contact with organized terror groups, if any.

The Olympics have faced diverse attacks since Palestinian assailants killed 11 Israeli athletes during the 1972 Games in Munich. Attackers’ ideologies are as varied as the teams that gather at the events. American bomber Eric Rudolph killed two people at the Atlanta Olympic park; he later said he did so out of opposition to legalized abortion. Italian anarchists attacked an Olympic merchandise store in 2006.

Urquiza said that stepped-up security with foreign partners has already led to actions on the ground: Agents in Brasília moni-

tor the 80,000 passengers arriving in Brazil by air each day, and they identify one to two each day who need additional screening.

Police refused entry to a passenger who was wanted on financial crime charges in Qatar.

Urquiza said that without the IPCC, Brazilian officials are only able to check entrants’ backgrounds against Brazil’s and Interpol’s criminal databases, but that the center allows them to draw on data from other participating nations. That piece will go away after the Olympics, but Urquiza said they are trying to get 10 countries across North America, South America and Europe to continue the operation in the future.

Foreign expertise also comes handy in patrols, Urquiza said. He imagined a scenario in which a Brazilian officer saw a flag with Arabic writing at a venue. “I am not able to determine if that is a threat or somebody partying,” he said. “But an Arab police officer is able to immediately identify this and reports it to us.”

Nathan Thompson, a researcher with the Igarapé Institute, a thinktank on public security based in Rio, said Brazilian officials’ have shown they clearly welcome international collaboration on this front, a seeming recognition that Brazil, by the nature of the threats it faces, has little experience in counter-terrorism.

“I’d say that international cooperation at all levels is generally a good thing,” said Thompson, “but I think the Brazilian public also has a right to know what form this cooperation will take in the future. But at the moment there is not a lot of transparency.”

Thompson added that the high level of involvement with the U.S. — Brazilian police have taken security courses with U.S. trainers and sent agents to observe events

like the Super Bowl and Boston Marathon — is remarkable given the recent history between the two over surveillance revealed by the Edward Snowden case.

Warning boosted on travel to N. Korea Americans may face arrest, ‘wartime law’ Gregg Zoroya @greggzoroya USA TODAY

Sandusky takes stand for first time to deny sex abuse Former coach seeks new trial, calls charges ‘disgusting and dirty’ Doug Stanglin @dstanglin USA TODAY

Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, seeking to overturn his 2012 conviction as a serial sexual predator, denied the charges as “disgusting and dirty” Friday and testified that his original attorney misled him into giving a damning NBC interview on the eve of his original trial.

Sandusky, serving a 30- to 60year sentence at Greene County prison, is seeking a retrial under

Pennsylvania’s Post-Conviction Relief Act that applies to cases in which new evidence surfaces, constitutional rights have been violated or the defendant claims gross negligence by his attorney.

Sandusky, 72, was convicted in 2012 of sexually abusing 10 boys.

Several of the incidents occurred in the Penn State locker room.

Wearing an orange prison jumpsuit and white sneakers, a smiling Sandusky walked into the Centre County courthouse in Bellefonte, Pa., accompanied by guards. He carried packets of papers in his hands, which were handcuffed in front of him.

In an hour on the stand — the first time he has officially defended himself in court — the former coach argued that he was given bad media advice and legal

guidance by his original lawyer, Joseph Amendola.

Judge John Cleland has given Sandusky’s team a chance to make their case in three days of evidentiary hearings, the Harrisburg Patriot-News reported. A spokesman for Attorney General Kathleen Kane said Thursday that her office will “vigorously” defend the prosecution in court, according to the newspaper.

Sandusky told the court he was “not in a very good emotional state” when Amendola pressed him on short notice to give an interview to NBC’s Bob Costas.

“I had no idea what was going to happen,” Sandusky said. “I thought maybe they were just going to tape my response of my innocence.

Amendola didn’t suggest any questions they might

ask.”

Excerpts showing Sandusky struggling to answer questions about his alleged attraction to young boys were shown at his 2012 trial.

Sandusky also vigorously denied he was guilty of the crimes for which he was convicted.

“Absolutely not. ... That idea was totally foreign to me,” he said Friday, according to PennLive .com. “That (sexual contact with children) is disgusting and dirty, and something that I never would have thought of and something that I never did with anybody.”

Sandusky also argued Amendola damaged his case by initially telling the jury that Sandusky would testify and then convincing his client at the last minute not to take the stand.

Travel warnings for American tourists keen on North Korea have always been dire with admonitions from the U.S. State Department about the risk of arrest, long-term detention, coerced public statements and public trials.

This week a new alert was added — something sounding an awful lot like becoming a prisoner of war: “North Korea’s system of law enforcement ... threaten(s) U.S. citizen detainees with being treated in accordance with ‘wartime law,’ ” a revised State Department travel warning said.

The updated language follows the latest heightening of tensions between the U.S. and North Korea in July when the Obama administration for the first time imposed personal sanctions against North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un for human rights abuses.

North Korea responded by calling the move an “act of war” and severed one of the last remaining communication channels between the two nations through North Korea’s United Nations mission in New York.

North Korea also said it would begin detaining Americans under “wartime law.” The revised travel warning was the consequence.

Andrea Lee, CEO and founder of one of the few U.S.-based travel companies operating in North Korea, said the warnings have proven to be a “double-edged sword” for tourism.

“On the one hand, yes, it’s not positive. But on the other hand, it makes people curious,” Lee said.

“People want to see the world and they want to go to places no one else has been to before.”

HEROIN SUSPECTED IN 20 MILWAUKEE DEATHS

Twenty people have died of probable heroin overdoses in Milwaukee County in the past two weeks, a toll the county medical examiner’s office called “unprece dented.”

The county of almost 1 million residents typically averages one heroin death every three days, the office said Thursday. The medical examiner is investigating the possibility other drugs, such as fentanyl, played a role in the deaths.

Fentanyl is a synthetic opiate similar to morphine, but it can be 40 to 50 times more powerful than street heroin. It is particularly deadly when mixed with other drugs.

Heroin-related deaths continue to rise, according to the medical examiner’s office. So far this year, 61 deaths have been recorded, compared with 110 in 2015. The total number of drugrelated deaths so far this year is 143, compared with a record 255 deaths in 2015.

— Crocker Stephenson, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel NEW POLIO CASES IN NIGERIA DASH ERADICATION HOPES

Crushing hopes that Africa could soon be declared polio-free, Nigeria announced two children have been paralyzed by the disease two years after the country’s last case.

Nigeria will work with the World Health Organization and others to launch immediate vaccination campaigns aimed at preventing the spread of polio, which causes paralysis, according to the WHO. The Associated Press reported Friday that Nigeria is using military helicopters to rush polio vaccines to Islamic extremist-infested areas, where the children were paralyzed.

Both polio cases were diagnosed in Nigeria’s Borno state, where militants, including Boko Haram terrorists, have attacked health workers, making it difficult to vaccinate children and monitor residents for signs of polio.

Health workers have been killed in Nigeria and Pakistan while trying to vaccinate children.

n some ways, the economic plan Hillary Clinton proposed in a speech Thursday is the mirror image of the vision Donald Trump laid out earlier in the week. Clinton wants to increase taxes to pay for a hodgepodge of programs to boost low-cost education, provide paid family leave and encourage economic development.

While her blueprint is heartening advocates for workers and the poor, business groups are rankled that it doesn’t include more tax and regulatory relief that they say would spur job creation.

Clinton wants to increase taxes, mostly on the wealthy, to pay for her new programs. The top 5% of income earners would bear 90% of the increased tax burden, according to the Tax Policy Center.

The impact on spending and the economy is expected to be modest because wealthy individuals tend to save, rather than spend, their incremental income.

Still, “it’s going to hurt spending, saving and investment” to some extent, says Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics. It also makes the tax code more complex, he says. Although the plan would generate $1.1 trillion in additional government revenue over the next 10 years, it will be more than offset by additional spending.

RAISE CERTAIN CORPORATE TAXES.

Clinton has been conspicuously silent about the corporate tax rate, which many experts say should be lowered from the current 35%, highest in the world, to make the U.S. more competitive.

President Obama has advocated cutting the rate to 28%, and Clinton may eventually follow suit.

Meanwhile, Clinton has proposed a new tax on high-frequency trading and an “exit tax” on companies that move operations overseas. She has not addressed reducing taxes for small business-

es, many of which pay the socalled “pass-through” rate based on their personal income taxes.

Trump, by contrast, proposed lowering both the corporate and

Clinton’s plan would boost spending by $300 billion to upgrade the country’s crumbling roads, highways, airports and waterways. small business rate to 15%. The National Federation of Independent Business, a small business advocacy group, says it wants to know why Clinton “rejects out of hand a lower tax rate for passthrough businesses… Cutting their taxes means letting them reinvest in growth and jobs.”

CRACK DOWN ON TRADE VIOLATIONS.

Like Trump, Clinton says she wants to crack down on China’s currency manipulation and theft of U.S. intellectual property, adding she’ll beef up trade enforcement. Unlike Trump, however, she’s not threatening a 45% tariff on Chinese imports, which experts say would be met with retaliation from China that hammers U.S. exports and eliminates jobs domestically.

Rather, Clinton says she’ll impose targeted tariffs on countries that violate trade protocols. But Clinton has echoed Trump in saying she opposes the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal she once supported and hasn’t been ratified by Congress. Gary Hufbauer, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, says the agreement would be a net benefit for the U.S., which has lower trade barriers than other participating nations. Economist Greg Daco of Oxford economics says Clinton’s new stance poses “the long-term growth risk of protectionism.”

INCREASE INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING.

Her plan would boost spending by $300 billion to upgrade the country’s crumbling roads, highways, airports and waterways. That should create several million construction related jobs and lift productivity, which suffers now because goods often can’t be transported efficiently.

Trump also has advocated more infrastructure outlays but has been less specific.

RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE.

The federal minimum of $7.25 an hour would rise to $12 over several years. The move would force businesses to increase prices, hurting sales on the margins, and substitute technology for labor, Daco says, adding that both would

PROVIDE WORKERS PAID FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE.

It’s expected to cost $300 billion over 10 years but would keep employees from leaving the workforce, making the economy more productive, Zandi says.

OFFER A TAX CREDIT FOR CHILDCARE EXPENSES.

Clinton’s plan should be more beneficial to low and middle income families, which could take off the amount of their childcare costs from their tax bill by up to 10% of their income. Trump has proposed allowing households to deduct childcare expenses, which would mostly benefit wealthier families that itemize such costs, Zandi says.

REDUCE EDUCATION COSTS.

She wants to make state and community colleges tuition-free for middle-income families and help debt-burdened graduates refinance their loans. Providing more access to education creates a better-trained workforce but the benefits to the economy may not be felt for years, Zandi says.

dampen hiring. Yet millions of households would benefit from higher wages, which would boost spending and job creation. Overall, employment would be a few hundred thousand jobs lower than under the status quo but incomes and living standards would be higher.

Macy’s decision to close 100 stores, only the latest in a series of downsizing announcements by department store chains, is going to fall hard on the nation’s shopping mall operators.

Macy’s, Sears, J.C. Penney and others, including specialty retailers, see their sales and profits being gobbled up by online retailers and shoppers seeking fresher retail concepts.

A real-estate research firm, Green Street Advisors, says chains would need to collectively close 800 stores to achieve the kind of profitability per square foot that they saw a decade ago.

Retail executives know they have a problem even though store cuts, with thousands of jobs at stake, are painful.

“The reality is the United States is over-stored,” Macy’s CEO Terry Lundgren told Bloomberg TV. “We’re getting in front of what we know is a trend, and that is customers are balancing their spending with online as well as in stores.”

COURTNEY SACCO, AP

Big department store chains such as Kohl’s are facing pressure from a shift in shopping patterns to more online purchasing.

Macy’s announcement Thursday that it would shutter 100 stores shook up shopping center operators such as Indianapolisbased Simon Property Group, which has 200 shopping centers.

Shares of Simon fell 2% that day, though they were largely unchanged Friday.

As Simon’s largest tenant, Macy stores occupy 12.6% of the company’s U.S. portfolio. Macy’s

has 122 stores in Simon-owned properties, accounting for more than 23 million square feet.

Green Street Advisors issued a report saying that a spate of department-store closures will be “problematic” for “lower productivity malls that have already had their fair share of struggles competing against online retail.”

For those malls, the problem will be akin to the dilemma once

faced by harried shoppers: too many stores and too little time.

Up until now, Green Street says mall landlords have done an “admirable” job of keeping spaces filled amid the retail changes.

“It is important to note we have one vacant department store in the entire portfolio, and we have 441 of them,” Simon Chief Operating Officer Rick Sokolov said during the company’s May earnings call. A Simon spokesman could not be reached for comment Friday.

Chain-store closure announcements have cascaded this year even though the U.S. economy generally has been strong. They include Ralph Lauren announcing it would close 50 stores. Sears said it would shutter 78 Sears and Kmart stores. Sports Authority is closing the entire chain.

For all the traditional retailers that have hit hard times, some discount chains are expanding.

Dollar General, a Tennesseebased discount retailer of groceries and household items, expects to open 900 locations in the next year. TJX Companies, which includes T.J. Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods, plans to add about 195 new stores, a 5% increase.

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

Last week sent a mixed picture on the state of retail: Department stores such as Macy’s and highend retailers such as Nordstrom surprised investors with profit reports that, while not great, weren’t as bad as feared. But broad July retail sales were flat, as only autos and online retailers (Amazon is the biggie) fared well.

A more complete picture of the health of retail and the U.S. consumer could emerge next week with the next wave of retail earnings on tap. A broad swath of companies that sell goods to consumers report, ranging from home-improvement retailers Home Depot and Lowe’s to apparel sellers such as Gap to footwear chain Foot Locker and office

Fox News Channel overhauled its management Friday by naming two internal executives as copresidents of the news network, a move aimed at stabilizing operations following the recent departure of its founder and former CEO, Roger Ailes, after a sexual harassment lawsuit.

Ailes, who was chairman and CEO of Fox News and Fox Business Network, left last month with a $40 million severance package after Gretchen Carlson, a former Fox News broadcaster, sued him for sexual harassment.

She said her contract wasn’t renewed in June after she refused Ailes’ sexual advances. Ailes has

The biggest civil war of summer was supposed to be Captain America and Iron Man facing off in a superhero popcorn movie.

But in the past few months, battle lines have been drawn all over pop culture, with tempers flaring, cooler heads not prevailing and hate spewing everywhere, mostly on the Internet.

There was DC vs. Marvel as fanboys and fangirls hotly debated comic-book franchises. Oldschool Ghostbusters fans vs. the reboot’s female stars. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian vs. Taylor Swift in a he said/she said war involving lyrics and Snapchat videos. Those who were excited to see Suicide Squad vs. the critics who reviled it, with Rotten Tomatoes.com becoming ground zero for trench warfare.

Then there’s the presidential race, where two weeks of conventions featured political parties calling each other out and cable news coverage showcased surrogates of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton sniping at one another 24/7.

“What I see right now is the whole world seems to be going to hell in a handbasket, and that’s creating a lot of tension and anger,” says Devin Faraci, editor in chief of film site Birth.Movies .Death. “That stuff leaks out into every possible direction.

We’re in that weird position where everything sort of seems terrible, and so as a result, people become negative and combative.”

It’s not as much people hating things as it is feverishly defending what they like, figures Mike Ryan, senior entertainment writer for Uproxx.com. “And if something or someone gets in the way, watch out.”

Pop culture is a lightning rod in society, attracting strong emotions positive and negative alike, says David Schmid, an English professor at the University at Buffalo who has written about the overlap between crime and entertainment in his book Natural Born Celebrities: Serial Killers in American Culture.

“From Uncle Tom’s Cabin in 1852 to comic books in the 1950s, pop culture has always been a convenient scapegoat, whether it’s about politics and race or just fear of juvenile delinquency from reading comics,” Schmid says.

People have long held strong views, but they didn’t have the venues in which to express it, says Robert Thompson, professor of television and popular culture at Syracuse University.

“If you hung out in beauty parlors or barber shops, you probably heard similar kinds of responses, but that’s where they stopped,” Thompson says. “Maybe you might put something on paper and mimeograph it and put it under windshield wipers, or you wrote a letter to the editor.”

But the instant gratification — and instant hot-take — nature of social media changed all that. “I had a great-uncle who complained about everything, but we were the only ones who heard it,” Thompson says. “Now everyone would hear about it.”

The love/hate relationship between audiences and film critics has evolved similarly. Loyalists took it personally when scathing reviews piled on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice or Suicide

CLAY ENOS

If baddies Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman) and Deadshot (Will Smith) of Suicide Squad can get along, why can’t fans and critics?

Kanye West and Taylor Swift have never quite gotten over that incident at the 2009 Video Music Awards.

Little has been held back in Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s high-profile race to the White House.

Squad before they were able to see the movies themselves.

Filmgoers want objectivity in criticism, though their definition of it “always means ‘my opinion,’ ” Faraci says. “They believe they’re coming from the sole rational spot on Earth, and anyone who disagrees with them is inherently irrational.”

He sees two turning points in the past five years where the conversation on social media became much more negative. Facebook commenters started having to use their real names in 2014 but continued saying “the most heinous stuff,” even with the lack of anonymity. And Twitter evolved from being a peer-to-peer messaging system to more of a global broadcasting medium. “Not every statement is for everybody, but the retweet button now allows you to (reach) people well beyond your own crowd or audience.”

Adds Schmid: “You start out using social media, and down the line you start to feel social media is using you. So you update and you post and you tweet because you feel it’s expected now.”

Ryan says the rhetoric is so amped up right now, it trickles down into everything — even fans’ favorite comic-book characters on the big screen.

“DC vs. Marvel has somehow

Even an escapist comedy like the new Ghostbusters couldn’t escape the rancor.

become an Oakland Raiders/Denver Broncos game, even though these movies don’t really compete head to head,” Ryan says. “But people cheer for them like they cheer for their favorite team.”

Even Suicide Squad director David Ayer got caught up in the rivalry: After a fan shouted “(Expletive) Marvel!” at the movie’s world premiere last week, Ayer repeated the sentiment onstage, though he tweeted a mea culpa soon afterward: “Not cool. Respect for my brother filmmakers.”

It’s a type of tribalism — where some root for Captain America: Civil War, others for Batman v Superman — that disturbs Faraci, a longtime aficionado of both comic companies.

“You have these kids who are really concerned about executives and box office the way I never was,” he says. “It feels like the Cola Wars have come to life and we’re all battling each other on the side of our chosen corporation. Guess what? I can like Superman and Spider-Man equally.”

Fans identifying with music, politics, films and TV isn’t intrinsically bad, Schmid says. The Ghostbusters discussion in particular, around the idea that director Paul Feig’s female-centric reboot would “ruin” fanboys’ childhoods, “enabled a larger conversation to

take place about the role of women in superhero movies and in movies in general. What starts off as negative or prejudiced point of view can in the fullness of time become more positive.”

When the movie opened, Feig acknowledged both sides, tweeting: “It’s been quite a ride, gang.

Supporters, you rock. Haters, I’ve heard you all. Now let’s all just have fun. We need it.” Yet the negativity reached a boiling point soon after when star Leslie Jones was temporarily forced off Twitter after a deluge of racist tweets.

More recently, breakout star Daisy Ridley of Star Wars: The Force Awakens was chased off Instagram last week by backlash following an anti-gun post.

Before social media, people didn’t get the chance to be so close “to the people who make the things that we love,” says Alanna Bennett, a BuzzFeed pop culture writer who took a Twitter break after she was harassed for a post proposing ways fans could support the new Ghostbusters.

“We’re at a point now where it’s happening more and more ... and people of color and especially women of color are disengaging from that when they’re in a very high-profile place.”

Trolls are a major part of the social-media space, which has erased age boundaries as it has grown more popular, Faraci says.

A 14-year-old could be arguing with an adult on the Internet, and the latter would never know it by conversing with a blank Twitter egg avatar.

Grown-ups aren’t above getting into the fray, either — for example, Trump bashing Clinton on Twitter and vice versa, or the public feud between Team Kimye and Team Swift. After Kardashian released video of Swift giving tacit approval to ugly lyrics mentioning her in West’s Famous, Swift fought back against being called a liar, adding that she “would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I never asked to be part of, since 2009” — the year West infamously interrupted her at the MTV Video Music Awards.

“If celebrities and politicians — who aren’t so very different these days — are constantly taking the negative path, it can feel like the status quo, the way things are done,” says Kate Erbland, film editor at Indiewire.com.

“Every famous person ever has had petty beefs,” Faraci adds.

“They just didn’t have the easy access to make those beefs public, and we’re still figuring out the etiquette of this stuff.

“I don’t think people have gotten any worse. Our ability to immediately go to our worst place has been made easier.”

So is it fixable? Does everybody just need to hug it out?

“Eventually, people might become so sick of this (that) it becomes not cool, something people don’t respect in the marketplace of ideas and emotion,” Thompson says. “But I don’t see that happening in the near future.”

Erbland offers a three-step process to turn our collective frown upside down: “Better movies, better discussion and maybe less time on social media.”

But Faraci contends that if people just realized they were actually talking to other people when they engage on social media, they might not be so mean.

“We’re not just talking to an avatar or a statement,” he says.

“We’re talking to a real human being who got up this morning, had breakfast, maybe something bad happened to them, maybe something good happened to them, but they’re living an actual life outside of their opinion on Suicide Squad.”

Tips for taking control of pesky, unsightly annual weed Garden Variety

Jennifer Smith

C

rab grass season is in full swing here in Kansas, or at least the seed heads are in full swing, waving in the breeze and shaking off hundreds of seeds for next year. Trying to remove or kill the plants at this point is mostly futile, so save the energy to beef up preventive measures.

There are two types of crabgrass: smooth and large. Smooth crabgrass is the most common and grows in short, spreading clumps. The leaves are soft, a little fuzzy and lighter

green than most lawns. You will see it the most along curblines or growing in compacted areas, bare spots, and especially dry locations where other plants have a hard time surviving.

Crab grass grows well in these areas because it can withstand the harsh conditions but also because it is a poor competitor with other plants.

Large crab grass is also clumpy and spreading but gets a little taller and resembles a gangly cousin of smooth crab grass. It grows in the same places.

Both kinds of crab grass are annual grassy weeds, meaning that plants only live one year. The plants you are seeing right now will die in a month or two even if you do nothing.

The hundreds of seeds this year’s plants dropped will mean even more crab grass next year though, unless you take preventive measures.

In the garden or landscape, mulch is the best bet. A 2- to 4-inch layer of

Hardy plants can draw in pollinators, too

By Dean Fosdick Associated Press

Water-wise gardens don’t have to resemble sterile moonscapes, devoid of anything but layers of rock and gravel. They can feature scores of attractive droughtresistant plants that invite bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollen- and nectar-gathering species to your yard.

Xeriscaping is an important gardening approach for the more arid parts of the country, said David Salman, founder and chief horticulturist for High Country Gardens in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

“But regardless of where you live, xeriscaping can be as simple as planting native and Old World plants whose water needs meet an area’s normal precipitation, thus needing little if any supplemental watering once established,” he said in an email.

Both perennials and annuals have a place in pollinatorsupportive gardens. Salman recommends annuals that naturalize themselves by re-seeding, so they are persistent in the landscape. He also suggests using a combination of perennials that will bloom from the start of the growing season until hard frost in the fall. Those can range from trees to shrubs, herbs to succulents, grasses to ground covers.

Start small. Understand which micro sites in your yard favor xeriscaping. Depressions in the ground that retain scarce rainwater, for example. Or dry corners of your property that with some soil amendments could be converted into pollinator pockets.

Environmental controls also will make your yard more attractive to pollinators.

“The use of windbreaks and building-sheltered areas in windy climates is one,”

Dean Fosdick/AP Photo

MANY OLD-WORLD PLANT SPECIES, SUCH AS LAVENDER, grow well in sun-seared settings and are pleasing to gardeners as well as pollinators.

“

Some cacti are hummingbird attractors — those that flower bright red. Other succulents, like sedums, are pretty attractive to bees. ”

— James Cane, entomologist

Salman said, a nod toward protecting wind-averse bumblebees. “The use of mulches in dry climates is another.

Using runoff water from a home’s roof to water a shade tree would be still another.

This saves both energy (air conditioning) and the need for supplemental irrigation.”

Succulents are popular with many gardeners, but cacti belong to a plant order with higher durability.

“Some cacti are hummingbird attractors — those that flower bright red,” said James Cane, an entomologist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture/ARS Insect

Pollinating Research Unit at Utah State University. “Other succulents, like sedums, are pretty attractive to bees.

But freezing temperatures can be hard on succulents.”

Go easy on using weed barriers like erosion cloth when xeriscaping, Cane said.

“It’s important to be judicious with it,” he said. “Don’t unroll the whole package and then poke holes in it - at least if you want bees and worms.

It packs down and eliminates habitat for the ground-nesting bees that comprise about 85 percent of the wild bee populations in the East.”

Which plants suited to sun-seared settings are most pleasing to pollinators and gardeners alike?

“Many Old World species like spring-blooming bulbs, catmints, lavender, Russian sage and European salvia are honeybee magnets,” Cane said.

“Native species like goldenrod, sulfur buckwheat, milkweed and blazing star are nectar sources for native bees and butterflies,” he said.

“Hummingbird mint, native salvia, orange honeysuckle and beardtongue are eagerly sought by hummingbirds.”

How to replace an Crab electric oven element

R

Fix-It Chick

eplacing the bake element in an electric oven is a simple fix to keep the cook cooking.

Step 1: Identify the make and model number of the oven. This information can usually be found on the frame of the oven behind the door.

Step 2: Purchase a replacement bake element made specifically for the oven to be repaired.

Step 3: Shut off the power to the oven using the circuit breakers or fuses located in the main electrical panel. Ovens are typically controlled by a double breaker or two fuses. For old style fuse panels, be sure to remove both fuses.

Step 4: If the oven is not hard-wired, unplug the oven cord from the electrical outlet for added security.

Step 5: Remove the oven racks. To make access to the bake element easier, the oven door can be removed, but it is not necessary. To remove the door, follow the instructions in the owner’s manual.

Step 6: Locate the bake element. If it is not readily visible, remove the bottom cover panel in the oven by unscrewing the four thumb screws that hold the panel in place.

The element should be clearly visible in the bottom of the oven.

Step 7: Use a screwdriver to detach the bake element from the

Linda Cottin oven. There may be two screws holding the feet of the element in place; otherwise, simply unscrew the screws attaching the element to the back of the oven.

Step 8: Carefully pull the element out from the back of the oven to expose the wires connecting it to the bake circuit behind the oven’s back panel.

Step 9: The wires should be attached to the element with solderless connectors. Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to gently pull the connectors off the back of the bake element. Make certain the wires do not fall into the back of the oven.

Step 10: Install the new bake element by attaching the wires to it. Wear gloves or use a cloth to avoid touching the element. Oils from hands can create hot spots on the element, shortening its life expectancy dramatically.

Step 11: Reinstall the screws, racks and door.

Plug the stove in, turn the power back on and test the oven.

Homegrown KU FOOTBALL

Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Jackson, Graham among most coveted There’s no doubting that college coaches across the country would enjoy the opportunity to coach more than a few members of the Kansas men’s basketball team.

Year after year, KU coach Bill Self beats out a varying number of college coaches for some of the top talent in the country. And year after year, Self takes that talent and makes it the class of the Big 12 and a national title contender.

Self doesn’t get them all, Jackson of course.

Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina and many others have won recruiting battles for more than their Graham share of players that Self and the Jayhawks tried to sign. But Self’s batting average with the most important players he targets is among the best in college basketball.

As is common at most schools, I’m sure, Kansas fans believe their players are the best in the country and that any coach would be lucky to coach any one of them, from the top point producer to the key role player off the bench. With that in mind, and much, much more, CBS Sports’ Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander recently conducted a poll of more than 100 college coaches and asked them which player on another team they most would like to have on their team.

Two Jayhawks landed on the list, with freshman phenom Josh Jackson getting 5 percent of the vote and junior guard Devonté Graham getting 2 percent.

Those are good numbers, but they pale in comparison to the feedback for Duke’s Grayson Allen (13 percent) and fellow Blue Devil Harry Giles (10 percent).

Without knowing the exact number or identity of the coaches CBS polled, it’s hard to know exactly what this means. But given the fact that they reached out to more than 100 of them, you have to think that at least half were of the Power 5 variety, so this isn’t just a case of mid-major coaches clamoring for the elite-level talent.

Speaking of elite-level talent, Duke actually landed a third player on list. Jayson Tatum tied with Jackson and received 5 percent of the vote.

The three Blue Devils marked the most for any team, with Kansas, Kentucky (Malik Monk and Bam Adebayo) and Villanova (Kris Jenkins and Josh Hart) all getting two players on the list. Those

KANSAS FRESHMAN BRYCE TORNEDEN TAKES OFF DOWNFIELD while working on kickoff coverage during practice Friday at Memorial Stadium.

Free State’s Torneden impresses early Averie Beaty cheers for Free State High athletes. It’s time for everyone emotionally invested in Kansas football to put her on the other end of a cheer.

If not for David and Raynee’s older of two daughters drawing KU’s head football coach to Free State games on Friday nights, Bryce Torneden would be a running back at North Dakota State, not a nickelback at Kansas. Beaty was allowed to attend games without

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

NCAA restrictions applying because of his daughter’s status as a member of the cheer squad.

Beaty liked what he saw

then and now. The musclebound Torneden has stood out in camp to the point that Beaty said Friday that he “definitely” will play in this his true freshman season.

The lone high school recruit from the state of Kansas in KU’s 2016 recruiting class, Torneden ran for 11 touchdowns, threw for 12, produced 2,452 yards in offense and earned all-state honors at defensive back for the Firebirds last season.

Keeping the best talent in

the state at home remains a tough challenge for Kansas.

The top four recruits in the state, per Rivals’ rankings, chose Oklahoma (Amani Beldsoe of Lawrence High), Clemson (Wichita East’s Xavier Kelly and Olathe North’s Isaiah Simmons) and Wisconsin (Isaiahh Loudermilk).

Torneden, ranked ninth, didn’t receive an offer from Kansas until late.

Defense focused on third downs

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

In year number two of his rebuilding project with the Kansas football program, head coach David Beaty recognizes the need for a vastly improved defense.

For example, behind the leadership of senior safety Fish Smithson and senior linebacker Marcquis Roberts, the head coach said his

KANSAS JUNIOR LINEBACKER JOE DINEEN, LEFT, and senior linebacker Marcquis Roberts work on defensive drills during practice Friday at Memorial Stadium. defense has better recognized the value of winning third-down situations — “We have to become better in that money down,” Beaty said.

On the subject of getting the other team’s offense off the field, the coach also identified turnovers as a camp emphasis. The staff pits the offense against the defense

in a takeaway competition every day, taking a point away from the offense every time the defense comes away with the football. The players have put pride into those battles, in part because the losing side has to run sprints afterward.

“They’ve created some,” Beaty said of turnovers, “but

they also have done exactly what we’ve asked them to do in regard to being aware of opportunities.”

While defensive coaches have preached swarming to the football and competing for passes in the air, they haven’t overlooked the very basic notion of tackling in the open field. As one would expect, Beaty and his staff acknowledge KU’s 0-12 2015 season featured opponents extending possessions with ease.

“Last year I just remember (opposing skill players) being able to make guys miss on that side, and these guys have become better sure tacklers in the open field,” Beaty said, while offering a long list of the preseason’s defensive standouts thus far, including Roberts, Smithson, sophomore defensive tackle Daniel Wise and junior linebacker Joe Dineen. “We hope that carries over for us when we get to the big field on game days.”

Foles to see playing time as KC opens preseason St. Joseph, Mo. (ap) — The first preseason game tends to be a glorified practice for most NFL teams, the starters rarely playing more than a series or the first quarter before giving way to the backups and nohopes.

There may be a little more value in today’s game for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Nick Foles will get his first taste of game action a week after signing to be quarterback Alex Smith’s backup, and a slew of players who may be counted on heavily due to injuries and absences early in the season could get significant playing time against the Seattle Seahawks.

“We don’t really gameplan for our SEAHAWKS first preseason AT CHIEFS opponent,” Chiefs coach When: 3:30 Andy Reid said. p.m. today “We try to go back and look Where: Kanat plays that sas City, Mo. aren’t neces- TV: NFL Netsarily complex work (WOW plays.

That cable 154, way we can 230) and give the young KCTV5 (5, guys a chance 205) to go out and play at a high level without have to overthink things.”

Foles isn’t exactly a young guy, but he fits in the same category.

The former third-round pick came to Kansas City with a broad understanding of Reid’s offense, having worked in it during their time together in Philadelphia. But it has evolved enough over the past three years that there has still been a steep learning curve.

Not enough to prevent Foles from quickly climbing to No. 2 on the depth chart, though.

Reid said Smith and the starters will likely play the first quarter against Seattle, but Foles will get at least the second quarter to show what he can do.

“I would say (with) about half of it he is comfortable,” Reid said. “We have about 403 pass plays, so I don’t expect him to have every one of those down.”

The Chiefs were not actively seeking a backup quarter, with three developmental prospects on the roster in Tyler Bray, Aaron Murray and Kevin Hogan. But with the departure of Chase Daniel in free agency, Smith was the only quarterback left who has played a meaningful snap.

The marriage between the Chiefs and Foles made perfect sense.

Bray is expected to play the third quarter and Murray and Hogan will split the fourth, though Reid acknowledged that his tentative plan is subject to change.

The quarterbacks aren’t the only ones looking forward to the opener.

All-Pro safety Eric Berry still hasn’t signed his franchise tender, and Tyvon Branch and Husain Abdullah left in the offseason, so Daniel Sorenson will get some extended playing time.

The same goes for the rotation of linebackers filling in for pass rushers Justin Houston and Tamba Hali, both of whom are recovering from offseason knee surgery. Houston’s surgery was in February and he is not expected back until at least midway through the year.

UNITED STATES’ KATIE LEDECKY CELEBRATES after the women’s 800-meter freestyle final during the swimming competition Friday at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Ledecky dominant again Rio De Janeiro (ap) — Katie Ledecky even upstaged Michael Phelps at the Olympics on Friday.

Ledecky set a world record by winning the women’s 800-meter freestyle by an astounding 11.38 seconds. She’s only the second woman to sweep the three longest freestyle races at the Olympics and the first one to do it since the 1968 Mexico City Games.

After winning four gold medals at the Rio de Janeiro Games and looking unbeatable, Phelps finally ran out of steam in what was the final individual race of his career — unless he decides to come out of retirement again.

The frenetic finishes in the swimming pool capped a day that included a big escape by the U.S. men’s basketball team and a stunning loss by the women’s soccer squad.

Phelps was seeking his 23rd Olympic gold medal and his fourth straight in the 100-meter butterfly, but he was denied

by Singapore’s Joseph Schooling, who got off to a blistering start and built a lead that even Phelps couldn’t overcome.

With Anthony Ervin winning the men’s 50 freestyle and Maya DiRado taking gold in the women’s 200 backstroke, the Americans would have had a clean sweep were it not for the silver by Phelps, the most decorated Olympian in history.

Ledecky finished well before Jazz Carlin of Britain touched the wall for silver. She joined Debbie Meyer as the only women to sweep the 200, 400

and 800 freestyle races at the same Olympics.

The United States women’s soccer team was eliminated by Sweden in the quarterfinals, a startling loss for the four-time Olympic champions that left Hope Solo without a shot at gold but with plenty of bitterness.

The U.S. goalkeeper criticized the Swedes for the way they played in beating the Americans 4-3 in a penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw — a result that means the world’s top-ranked team will miss out on an Olympic goldmedal match in women’s soccer for the first time.

Solo was angered by Sweden’s defensive style and branded the team a “bunch of cowards.”

“The best team did not win today,” she said. “I strongly and firmly believe that.”

Said Sweden coach Pia Sundhage, who once coached Solo when she was in charge of the U.S. national team: “It’s OK to be a coward if you win.”

Carmelo Anthony, Kyrie Irving & Co. survived their second straight strong challenge at the Rio Games, fending off Serbia 94-91 when Bogdan Bogdanovic missed a 3-pointer from the left wing with 2 seconds left that would have tied it.

Kevin Durant grabbed the rebound to keep the Americans unbeaten 48 hours after they barely escaped against Australia.

On a day that began with another round of rain, South

America’s first Olympics lingered under clouds of grief, doping and disrespect. n Brazil’s government declared a day of official mourning for a Rio Olympics police officer who died after being shot in the head making a wrong turn into one of the city’s slums. n A Chinese swimmer, Polish weightlifter and Bulgarian steeplechaser have been sanctioned for doping offenses, which are being handled by the Court of Arbitration for Sport for the first time. n And in a serious breach of judo etiquette with political overtones, an Egyptian judoka refused to shake the hand of his Israeli opponent after his loss.

Other highlights from Day 7: CLOSE CALLS: Rafael Nadal, the singles champion at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and Spain teammate Marc Lopez won the men’s doubles title.

Nadal also reached the semifinals in his bid for a second Olympic singles gold, overcoming his Brazilian opponent and a raucous flag-waving home crowd.

BRONZE BOXER: Nico Hernandez’s chance for a gold medal ended Friday when the Wichita, Kansas native lost to Uzbekistan’s Hasanboy Dusmatov. With a gnarly gash over his left eye, Hernandez had blurred vision and needed stitches. His consolation: his bronze medal in the light flyweight division ends a medal drought for the American boxers that stretched to 2008.

Bryan takes lead at rainy John Deere Classic Silvis, Ill. — Wesley Bryan took the lead in the rain-delayed John Deere Classic, five days after earning a PGA Tour card with his third Web.com Tour victory of the year.

Bryan played 26 holes in 10 under Friday at TPC Deere Run, birdieing three of the final holes to finish off a first-round 66 and shooting a 64 in the second to reach 12-under 130.

Area favorite Zach Johnson faced a long day today after not even getting onto the course Friday.

Play resumed five hours late at noon after nearly 2.4 inches of rain overnight — on top of the inch Thursday morning and afternoon that delayed play 3 1/2 hours. Because of the wet conditions, the players were allowed to use preferred lies in the fairways in the second round.

Sindelar in front at Senior Open Upper Arlington, Ohio — Former Ohio State player Joey Sindelar shot a 4-under 66 to take the second-round lead in the U.S. Senior Open.

One of four former Buckeyes in the field at Scioto Country Club in suburban Columbus, the 58-year-old Sindelar had five birdies Friday, including two in a row after a bogey on No. 5.

He had a 5-under 135 total after opening with 69 on Thursday.

He made a 40-foot birdie putt on the par-3 17th, after pars on the six previous holes.

Billy Mayfair, making his first senior start after turning 50 last Saturday, was a stroke back after a 67. He had four birdies and a bogey.

Ex-LSU receiver has KU connection

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

This is a strange new world for Kansas football.

Former Alabama players are transferring to play for the Jayhawks. Like THE Alabama. Not South Alabama. Not AlabamaBirmingham. The Alabama with Nick Saban and all those national championships.

First, former ’Bama receiver Daylon Charlot announced his intentions to move on to KU.

Football CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

Beaty, always quick to praise his players for their efforts, also made a point to express his approval for the practice efforts of some true freshmen on defense: cornerbacks Mike Lee and Kyle Mayberry, defensive back Bryce Torneden (whom Beaty revealed will not red shirt, but instead see the field in his first year) and defensive end Isaiah Bean.

It’s the arrival of such players that has quickly improved KU’s depth from a season ago. Beaty said the defense now experiences “very little drop off” when secondunit players sub in, adding the depth chart tends to flip-flop from day to day based on individual performances at certain positions.

“It’s been fun watching our defense actually have really good competition on that side,” Beaty said, “which is what depth creates for you.”

Armstrong remains out A week after Beaty announced standout defensive end Dorance Armstrong Jr. would be kept out of preseason practices as a precaution due to an unspecified leg injury, the sophomore still hasn’t returned to camp activities.

Beaty said Friday KU’s coaching and training staffs want to continue to err on the side of too much rest for the 6-foot4, 241-pound lineman, because the coaches understand how impactful Armstrong can be for the Jayhawks this fall.

Beaty evaluating QBs As Beaty indicated would be the case previously during camp, Kansas has yet to name its starting quarterback. The head coach, who doubles as the QB coach, said the Jayhawks remain in the “competition period” of the preseason, with sophomore Ryan Willis and red-shirt junior Montell Cozart battling for the No. 1 spot.

“Those two guys, Montell and Ryan, have both had really good days. Really good days,” Beaty repeated. “It’s been interesting to see guys kind of fall behind and then a guy fight back and start taking back over.”

BRIEFLY Kansas soccer blanks Creighton A goal and an assist from sophomore Grace Hagan and Ashley Pankey’s second goal of the preseason helped send Kansas past Creighton, 3-0, in a soccer exhibition Friday night at Rock Chalk Park. Freshman Katie McClure also scored for KU. “We were much better offensively today,” KU coach Mark Francis said.

“We changed up a few things in our formation and I think it paid off.”

Shortly after, former Crimson Tide offensive lineman Charles Baldwin did the same.

Charlot already has participated in preseason practices at KU and Baldwin is expected to do so soon. While neither Alabama transfer will be able to help Kansas win games until the 2017 season, they join junior receiver LaQuvionte Gonzalez (Texas A&M), junior running back Denzell Evans (Arkansas) and senior linebacker Marcquis Roberts (South Carolina) as former play-

an intriguing trend and another reminder that second-year coach David Beaty and his staff are doing the right things in recruiting.

Which brings us to the case of former LSU receiver Tyron Johnson. On Thursday, basmith@ljworld.com Johnson announced on ers from the mighty SEC Twitter he’s transferwho have relocated to ring from LSU. What KU. does this have to do So what are we to with Kansas? Funny you make of this? Do we need should ask. to pay attention to every Johnson, a sophosingle SEC player who more who had nine redecides to move on? ceptions, 150 yards and No. But it’s at least two touchdowns for the

Benton Smith

Tigers as a freshman, was a five-star receiver at Warren Easton High in New Orleans. If that school sounds familiar to you, it’s because first-year KU running backs coach Tony Hull used to coach there.

So a 6-foot-1 receiver ranked 11th nationally in the Class of 2015 who received scholarship offers from LSU, Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Oregon and others is available.

I wonder if Kansas would have any interest in that kind of talented player?

Obviously this doesn’t guarantee anything for KU. Johnson seems to be the type of athlete who could choose to go just about anywhere in the country at this point, even if things didn’t work out for him at LSU. But given Johnson’s connection with Hull and the way recruits seem to believe in Beaty and his staff, it’s definitely a plot worth watching.

KU women improve to 2-0 overseas J-W Staff Reports

Winning was tough to come by for Kansas women’s basketball coach Brandon Schneider and his Jayhawks during Year 1 of Schneider’s reign with the program.

But, so far at least, that’s all the Jayhawks know on their trip overseas for a stretch of four exhibition games in France and Switzerland.

Schneider’s squad improved to 2-0 on Friday morning with a 95-52 victory against AMW AllStars at Le Stadium in Paris.

It marked the second game against the AMW All-Stars, and four Jayhawks, for the second game in a row, reached double figures, with junior Jessica Washington leading all scorers with 17 points. Junior Chayla Cheadle added 15 points behind a pair of treys and

KANSAS WOMEN’S BASKETBALL COACH Brandon Schneider talks to his team Friday in Paris.

The Jayhawks won an exhibition game, 95-52, over the AMW All-Stars. sophomores McKenzie Calvert (14) and Kylee Kopatich (13) rounded out KU’s double-digit scorers.

Sophomore Chelsea Lott came off the bench to lead Kansas on the

glass with five rebounds.

Calvert, Cheadle and Tyler Johnson each grabbed three boards while senior Caelynn Manning-Allen brought down four rebounds.

Kansas opened the

game with a 6-0 run and didn’t allow the opposition to score until the 6:39 mark. The Jayhawks’ defense held the AMW AllStars to just 11 points in the first period and built a 10-point lead at the end of

the first quarter. Cheadle led KU with eight points in the opening quarter.

Kansas poured it on again in the second quarter to the tune of a 20-7 advantage and took a 41-18 lead into the locker room at halftime.

The Jayhawks hit the AMW All-Stars with a 6-0 run to start the second half. Sophomore Aisia Robertson sank a threepointer to give Kansas a 32-point advantage, and newcomer Eboni Watts also logged quality minutes in the third, recording a steal, a rebound and a pair of assists. Kansas took a 70-36 advantage into the final quarter and cruised to victory behind the sharp shooting of Kopatich, who scored 11 points in the final frame.

The Jayhawks will travel to Montreaux, Switzerland, to face Sion Select. Tipoff is set for 8 a.m. (Central) on Sunday.

Finley advances to Olympic discus finals Finley, who was in danger of falling out of the Top 12 entering his final throw, moved all the way up to sixth place with the final mark.

The former Jayhawk who competed at KU from 2010-12, improved on each of his three attempts during Friday

morning’s qualifying.

The eight-time AllAmerican’s throw broke an American discus dry spell, as he became the first U.S. discus thrower to advance to the Olympic final since the 2004 Games.

The 2016 American champion will try to make

even more history today — beginning at 8:50 a.m.

Central time, when he looks to become the first U.S. Olympic medalist in the discus since 1984.

Fans can follow the discus final by logging on to NBCOlympics.com and clicking on the live stream link. Live results will also

be available at Rio2016. com. Finley won’t be the only Jayhawk in action today. Three-time NCAA champion and former Kansas star Andrea Geubelle will get her Olympic debut underway in the triple jump. The qualifying flights are set to begin at 7:50 a.m. (CT).

According to Rivals. com, the first, which will be of the unofficial variety, will take place Labor Day weekend, when Garrett and his uncle/ AAU coach Matthew Watts will come to town for KU’s football opener against Rhode Island on Sept. 3.

The second trip will come four weeks later, when Garrett makes his official visit for Late Night in the Phog (Oct. 1) the weekend of Sept. 30.

Garrett, the No. 44 ranked prospect in the 2017 class according to Rivals.com, committed to the Jayhawks in early August, picking KU over offers from Baylor, UConn, Iowa State, Oklahoma State, Oregon and Texas, among others.

As the recruiting process for Garrett went on,

he grew more and more worn down by the whole process. That, along with the overwhelming feeling that KU was the place for him, led to Garrett making his decision public earlier this month.

“I think he handled it excellent,” Watts said of the recruiting process.

“For him, it’s always been about the team. It’s never been about him.

He doesn’t want the spotlight on him. He’s a pretty quiet kid for the most part. As the process went on, he was getting calls every day and he was feeling like he was not able to be a kid and still do the things that kids can enjoy.”

Now, with the hard part out of the way, Garrett can kick back and enjoy his upcoming visits to KU, something which

Watts said would be figured to be more enjoyable with the weight of the decision off of his shoulders.

Chaundee Brown on KU Four-star 2017 prospect Chaundee Brown recently talked to Rivals. com’s Dan McDonald about his four finalists, Kansas, Florida, Maryland and Wake Forest.

Here’s what Brown had to say about each school still in the hunt for the 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Orlando.

On Kansas: “Kansas has always been good.

They have great tradition. They play on TV a lot and they always make it to the Sweet 16. They always have guards make it to the NBA.” On Florida: “I just like their playing style

with their guard play.

Coach (Mike) White can help me a lot. He said he needs another great shooter like me. He watched me play a lot this summer and he feels like I’ll fit in well with their system the way they push the ball.”

On Maryland: “They always win in their conference. They are in the Big Ten now. They are always one of the better teams and get the other team’s best. They said they really need another wing that can push the ball and be versatile.”

On Wake Forest: “Just Coach (Danny) Manning, he knows a lot. He played in the NBA and won a ring with Kansas.

He has connections and they need a wing that can step in and be the missing piece.”

knows what it’s like to have production taken for granted as a local boy.

“It’s kind of funny,” Bowen said. “I’ve been watching Bryce Torneden since he was playing Pop Warner football out at YSI. You’ve known them so long and it kind of blinds you to how good they are.

You’ve seen them all the time, you know everything about them and sometimes you nitpick at them a little too much.”

Exposure can work in favor of an athlete until it works against him.

“You end up taking this other kid and all you’ve seen is his highlight tape and one good game and you think he’s great,” Bowen said.

“Bryce, to me, he proved for two years at Free State he was going to make plays every game, show up every game, lead his team every game. I think sooner or later, coach Beaty saw the same thing going to his games and realized, ‘You know what, this kid’s pretty special and he’s sitting right here and he’s a guy we need.’”

Bowen said Torneden, listed at 5-foot-10, 185 pounds, repeatedly has shown, “great instincts,” in practice to go with strong work habits.

“Maybe one of the hardest workers on this team,” Beaty said. “He came in in as good a shape as anybody on this team, and that’s not normal for a high school guy. He’s going to play this year, definitely going to play.”

That will sell a few extra tickets for a program that will have trouble drawing until it starts winning.

J-W Staff Reports

Friday morning, inside Olympic Stadium in Rio De Janeiro, former Kansas thrower Mason Finley delivered a monster throw of 63.68 meters on his final throw of the qualifying round to earn a spot in today’s finals.

four teams also are ranked 1 through 4 in CBS’s preseason poll.

These types of polls and exercises obviously don’t mean much in the grand scheme of things.

But they are fun and interesting and you can’t help but wonder which player Self picked if he were asked.

Garrett visits Marcus Garrett, the four-star, 6-foot-5 versatile guard from Dallas who recently became the first member of the Class of 2017 to orally commit to the Kansas basketball program, has set up a couple of campus visits.
