Just Food: Ex-mayor misled on finances By Chad Lawhorn Twitter: @clawhorn_ljw
The former executive director of Just Food — who until last week also was the mayor of Lawrence — intentionally misled board members about a variety of financial matters, the nonprofit’s board has determined. Jeremy Farmer, 32, dismissed the organization’s outside accountant without the board’s knowledge more than a year ago, an attorney who is working with Just Food’s board said Friday. Without an accounting firm reconciling the non-

profit’s books, Farmer was able to leave more than $61,000 in federal and state payroll taxes unpaid, said Lawrence attorney Dan Watkins.
In one of his few statements about the matter, Farmer previously told the Journal-World that “nothing was done intentionally” regarding the unpaid taxes but rather it was just a matter of his “not doing it right.” Watkins said the board’s
investigation into the matter makes it clear the matter was not just an oversight on Farmer’s part. “I would say his limited responses don’t seem credible,” Watkins said. Watkins also said of Farmer:
“He misled board members.” Watkins said the organization is still trying to determine whether there is information that should be turned over to prosecutors for possible criminal charges against Farmer. “That is to be determined,” Watkins said. “No conclusions have been reached on that at this point.” Attempts to reach Farmer for comment were unsuccessful Friday.

In his memorandum decision, U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren wrote that Monroe alleged he was “fired for being in the wrong place (in the Lawrence Police Department), at the wrong time (during the 2011-2012 Kansas University ticket scandal). With the wrong people (biased decisionmakers), and having the wrong skin color (black).” After receiving two anonymous tips, the LPD began to “scrutinize more closely” the actions within the department, according to court documents. The LPD conducted two investigations, one in 2010 and another in 2011, the first of which went unsubstantiated. During both investigations, Monroe revealed that “several years earlier” he had dismissed two to three traffic citations given to Rodney Jones, former assistant athletics director for KU Athletics’ Williams Educational Fund — and had his wife buy Jones “a bottle of vodka” at the request of former LPD Sgt. Matt Sarna. “Monroe explained that he dismissed the tickets because (Jones) and (Sarna) were friends,” court documents said. “Monroe also described attending certain athletic events using tickets and parking passes originally provided by (Jones) or (Sarna).” Monroe said he paid for the tickets, aside from one occasion. Jones was later sentenced to more than three and a half years in federal prison for taking part in a $2 million ticket scheme that illegally delivered thousands of tickets for KU basketball and foot-

ball games to brokers and other parties. Attempts to reach Monroe by email Friday were unsuccessful. After reviewing the interviews and investigations in early 2012, Khatib decided to fire Sarna and demote Monroe from his sergeant position. Monroe denied the allegations after learning of the decision, so Khatib allowed Monroe to undergo a final interview, according to court documents. Monroe revealed in the third interview that as recently as Jan. 16, 2012 — while the investigation was underway — he accepted free tickets to a KU basketball game from another person affiliated with KU Athletics for whom he had dismissed traffic tickets. Khatib said the act “further underscore(d) (Monroe’s) lack of judgment,” according to court documents. After that, Khatib changed his mind, deciding to fire Monroe instead of demoting him. In Monroe’s termination letter, Khatib said Monroe also evaded “direct culpability” by claiming his wife was the one who used KU Athletics parking permits and denying that he benefitted from them. He also said Monroe denied receiving anything from Jones for free and taking tickets from Sarna, but that “appear(ed) to be misrepresentations of facts.” “The investigation had found that (Monroe) received three 2007 tournament game tickets from (Jones),” Khatib wrote to Monroe. “Additionally, (Monroe) attended a basketball game at Allen Field House … with tickets from (Sarna).” Monroe then went through the city’s fourstep grievance procedure to contest his termination, but that ultimately resulted in a confirmation that Monroe had been duly fired. That’s when Monroe decided to sue. Monroe’s claims primarily focused on improper termination because of his race, based on the fact that Khatib did not take action against a white employee (Sarna) in the 2010
Western Kansas still too dry Topeka — Some parts of western Kansas still need 5 inches of rain before they can make up what they lost in a recent drought, according to the Kansas Water Office.

Knowles said 33 western Kansas counties were still under a drought watch in June because of low stream flows and soil moisture.
investigation, even though he did take action against Sarna along with Monroe in 2011. In his lawsuit, Monroe said that Khatib, then an LPD captain, did not take action in 2010 after he allegedly became “fully aware of the possible misconduct of (Sarna).” According to court documents, Monroe brought this allegation to the city’s grievance panel in a written statement supporting his reasons to appeal his termination. “It is clear that when the chief determined that the information would soon become public (in 2011), he changed the rules and determined that I should have come forward sooner despite his earlier failure to act,” Monroe wrote. “These facts will certainly lead the public to believe that there was a cover-up at the police department, and that the only African-American supervisor on the police department was put forward as the scapegoat.” The court found that Monroe properly evidenced that Khatib had treated him differently than white employees but that Monroe failed to show the treatment had an unlawful — or racial discrimination — motive. “No evidence shows that Khatib adjusted his interpretations of the city’s policies so that he could fire Monroe but continue to employ similarly situated white employees that engaged in the same misconduct,” Melgren wrote in his memorandum decision. Melgren ultimately ruled with the city and Khatib, finding that while Monroe may have felt he was terminated because of his race, “evidence shows” that they fired “under the sincere belief that he took uncharacteristic but nonetheless inexcusable actions.” “Under the circumstances presented, feeling wronged does not amount to being wronged,” Melgren said.

Democrats regrouping after resignation By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock
Wichita — The Kansas Democratic Party’s mid-year “DemoFest” convention was thrown into turmoil this weekend after the abrupt resignation of the party’s chairman Larry Meeker. And the situation was further complicated by the fact that party officials had neglected to send out formal notices
that the party’s state committee would be meeting during the convention. Because of that, according to the party’s bylaws, the committee is Meeker prevented from taking any action to name a new chairperson this weekend. Meeker resigned early Friday after controversy erupted over comments
he had made to Kansas news outlets, suggesting that Democrats needed to change their brand and image to appeal to a more conservative voting bloc. In particular, he reportedly told the Wichita Eagle earlier in the week that the party included people who were both for and
against same-sex marriage, as well as abortion rights. Both of those issues are specifically addressed in the party’s official platform. “He made some comments in the press the other day that seemed to dismiss some of the key points, specifically on the issue of marriage equality, dismissing that,” said Tom Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas, the
state’s largest gay rights group, and a member of the party’s executive committee. “Because of the group I represent, that was pretty much unacceptable.” Some Lawrence-area Democrats also said they were surprised by Meeker’s comments. “I was concerned about the statements, but I didn’t expect a resignation,” Rep. Boog Highberger said. “I think

The outcry came after Defense Secretary Ashton Carter ordered a site survey at Fort Leavenworth, as well as Charleston, S.C. Carter has said other sites will be assessed. Sen.

the timing’s not great. But I’m confident we can come together and move forward.” Meeker’s comments, and his subsequent resignation, helped expose a rift within the Kansas Democratic Party that has boiled beneath the surface, but which few Democrats have talked openly about until now — a rift between those
rorists, who hate America, to the Heartland of our nation is simply wrong,” Brownback said in a statement. State Sen. Steve Fitzgerald, RLeavenworth, warned that housing prisoners at Fort Leavenworth, the only maximum-security military prison in America, would be an invitation for attacks in the prison’s vicinity. “Those of us elected to represent the interests of the people of Kansas must do everything in our power to ensure this does not happen,” he said. U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran said if the prisoners were transferred to Fort Leavenworth, safeguards could include closing off public access to Sherman Airfield in Leavenworth and stopping nearby rail and barge traffic.

straight month, to 4.6 percent, as both the public- and private-sector job markets shed workers. The Kansas Department of Labor reported a net loss, on a seasonally adjusted basis, of 4,300 nonfarm jobs in July, with the biggest losses occurring in government services as well as education and health care services. The report showed a seasonal loss of 19,800 government jobs in July, or 7.9 percent, mainly in local school employment. The education and health care sector also lost 1,600 jobs, or 0.8 percent. There were 11,553 new claims for unemployment in July, an increase of 224 from June. Over the past year, the Department of Labor said, total employment in Kansas has grown by less than half a percent, while
private-sector employment has grown less than 1 percent. The Wichita metropolitan area saw the biggest jump in unemployment, half a percentage point, to 5.7 percent. In Douglas County, unemployment climbed four-tenths of a point, to 4.8 percent. That’s also higher than July 2014, when it was 4.7 percent. Tyler Tenbrink, the department’s senior labor economist, said one factor that may affect future job growth is stagnant growth in the state’s civilian labor force, which has shrunk 1.4 percent over the last year, to 1.479 million. — Peter Hancock can be reached at phancock@ljworld.com or 354-4222.

The case against a 32-year-old Lawrence man who was accused of molesting his girlfriend’s young daughters was dismissed Thursday, according to court records. The man was charged in October 2014 with two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and one count of rape. The charges came after the girlfriend’s two daughters allegedly told a Department of Children and Families social worker in May 2014 that they watched pornography with the man, according to the arrest affidavit in his case. The girls later allegedly told officers in a resulting police investigation that the man had inap-

who think Democrats need to reach out more to independents and moderate Republicans to form a governing coalition, and those who think the party needs to work harder to sell its own political views to a larger audience. “I think that’s something you’ve probably heard from (former Lawrence Rep.) Paul Davis, that you’ve probably heard from other Democrats that run in the state of Kansas,” said Melody McCray-Miller, a former state representative from Wichita who now serves on the party’s executive committee. “The fact of the matter is that it is predominantly a Republican state, so it’s quite natural that you would talk about those issues.” Rep. Tom Sawyer, another Wichita Democrat and a former House minority leader, said that initially he didn’t think Meeker was intending to back away from the party’s official support for marriage equality or abortion rights.
propriately touched them. But after further investigations on the case over the past 10 months, Cheryl Wright Kunard, assistant to the Douglas County district attorney, said that investigators were “unable to establish sufficient corroborating evidence to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt.” So, prosecutors moved to dismiss all of the man’s counts. “Without such additional evidence, it was decided it was in the best interest of the children to save them from having to testify in a trial,” Wright Kunard said. But the fallout over the court case did not evaporate along with the court case. The man’s attorney, Michael Warner, said the man, who has two chil-

“I don’t think he was saying that,” Sawyer said. “I didn’t see all of his comments, but the reality is we do have a platform and he should stand by it.” Meeker’s abrupt resignation also created another problem for Democrats. Under the party’s bylaws, 10 days notice must be given before the party’s state committee can meet and take any action. And even though it has been known for months that the state party would be meeting in Wichita during the DemoFest convention, party officials neglected to send out an official notification of the meeting, along with a tentative agenda. Because of that, officials said Friday, the state committee is prevented from taking any votes at its meeting today, including any vote to name a new chairperson. The party’s executive committee did meet Friday morning, however, and agreed to hold a special state committee meeting Oct. 3 in Salina to select a new chairperson. Until then, the party’s first vice-chairperson, Kathryn Focke of Man-
hattan, will take over the responsibilities of the chairperson. As early as Friday afternoon, only hours after Meeker’s resignation, a handful of names already were circulating as likely front-runners to become the next chairman. They included former House Minority Leader Dennis McKinney, of Greensburg, and Wichita attorney Lee Kinch, a former vice chairman of the party. McKinney was the subject of a draft movement just before the party’s last convention in March in Topeka. Although he declined the nomination, he told state party officials then that Kansas Democrats have focused too much in recent years on urban voters in the Kansas City-Lawrence-Topeka corridor and have largely ignored rural areas where Democrats once were competitive. “I think by the end of the weekend, we will have coalesced behind someone who is very experienced and will be well suited to lead this party in the 2016 and 2018 elections,” said Rep. John Carmichael, of Wichita.

Ex-mayor CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Farmer last week resigned from his position at Just Food, and then two days later resigned his position on the Lawrence City Commission, and paid the city for about $1,100 in personal expenses that had been charged to his city credit card after they were questioned by city administrators. The Just Food board of directors sent a message to supporters on Friday afternoon, and said Farmer’s mismanagement of the food bank — which is the largest in Douglas County — shocked them. “Our board was shocked and disappointed to learn that Mr. Farmer regularly ignored and circumvented internal control procedures that were put in place to avoid the financial issues we are currently facing,� Kristi Henderson, the board’s president, wrote in the message. Among the allegations: l Farmer dismissed the agency’s accountant “without board consideration or knowledge, and misrepresented an ongoing relationship.� l He submitted the agency’s 2014 income tax return to the local United Way for purposes of gaining funding, but never filed the tax return with the IRS. Watkins said board members believe it was wrong to have presented the incomplete tax return to the United Way. Watkins said Just Food is working to repair its relationship with the United Way, which has been a key funder of the food bank. “We very much want to continue working with them as a key partner,� Watkins said. “We’re going to make every effort to work with the United Way to have it be satisfied that our operations are working as they should be.�
Seat CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
October. Given the questions surrounding Farmer and unpaid payroll taxes at his former employer, the nonprofit food bank Just Food, commissioners are looking for a process that creates confidence in the new appointee. “I know commissioners believe it is critical that this be a very open, transparent process,� Mayor Mike Amyx said. The application process will have a number of steps, including requiring applicants to participate in a public forum and write a pair of essays up to 500 words describing their approach to governing and detailing the largest issues facing the community. Here’s a look at other details of the application process: l Candidates would have until 5 p.m. on Sept. 9 to apply for the vacant seat. As part of the process, they would fill out an application form. It includes questions about the person’s education, work history, length of time in Lawrence, community involvement and the essay questions. Candidates also will be required to complete a form detailing any potential conflicts of interest their employment or livelihood may create in the position. l A 12-member advisory board will be appointed to review all applications and make a recommendation of six candidates to be considered by the City Commission. The remaining four members of the City Commission will each appoint three members to the advisory board. l The advisory board would hold a meeting at 6:30 p.m. on Sept. 17 to review all applicants and select 12 semifinalists. All meetings of the advisory board would abide by the Kansas Open Meetings Act and the Kansas Open Records Act, meaning all can-
Watkins said Just Food is not in imminent danger of closing its doors. He said the organization does have enough money in its bank account to continue funding operations. But he said the organization does not have enough money to pay all of its tax liabilities at once and still be able to fund operations. The nonprofit is working on payment plans with both the IRS and the state of Kansas. Originally, it was only reported that federal withholding taxes were unpaid. Watkins said a review has found that there is about $6,100 in unpaid state withholding taxes. The amount of unpaid federal withholding taxes is now estimated to be just less than $56,000. Previously it was believed the taxes went unpaid for all of 2014 and into 2015. Watkins said it now appears there may have been unpaid taxes in portions of 2013, as well. Watkins said the survival of the food bank will depend upon reaching agreements with the taxing entities, and also successful fundraisers by the nonprofit. “Just Food needs help from its supporters right now,� Watkins said. “It needs help both with its food mission and with getting back to even with the taxing authorities.� Watkins said, thus far, discussions with the taxing entities are going well. “We’re being transparent with them about the situation, and we’re hopeful,� Watkins said. Watkins said the board became aware of the unpaid taxes in “late July.� The board became aware when an IRS agent came to the Just Food offices. Watkins said it is now clear that the IRS had sent previous notices to the organization, but those notices were never communicated to the board. Watkins said the board is still determining what happened to the more than $60,000 in payroll taxes that were included in the
organization’s budgets but were not paid. Watkins said it appears that the money was used to cover other operational expenses. He said the money was not set aside in reserve to pay the taxes. Among the operational expenses the organization pays is the salary of its director. Farmer’s salary in 2012 was about $30,000, but the board gave him an almost 100 percent raise the next year to nearly $60,000, according to board financial records. Watkins also confirmed that an audit of the organization’s finances was not completed for 2014, nor had Farmer taken any steps to schedule an audit. The board has since hired the Lawrence-based accounting firm McFadden Group to conduct a full financial review, and the board is in the process of hiring a firm to conduct an audit. It is not clear from conversations with Watkins how the Just Food board went for such an extended period of time without realizing that an outside accountant was not working for the organization. Previously, an outside accounting firm handled the organization’s tax returns and payroll processing. “Every nonprofit relies on its director,� Watkins said. “When they let you down like Jeremy did, you don’t expect that. It was kind of a bolt out of the blue.� The board is continuing on with fundraising activities. It has scheduled a “Chef’s Table� dining fundraiser for Thursday at the Cider Gallery. Watkins said members of the public can give to the nonprofit knowing that the organization has a system in place to safeguard their donations. “The board is very aware of the need to make sure people’s donations are used in the way people want them to be,� Watkins said. “There is a heightened awareness from the board. There is certainly a heightened awareness.�
City advisory board Here’s a look at the proposed appointments to the city advisory board that will assist commissioners in reviewing applicants for the vacant City Commission seat. All of the proposed appointees are Lawrence residents and registered voters.
Appointed by Mayor Mike Amyx l Tom Christie l Joe Harkins l Joanne Hurst Appointed by Commissioner Stuart Boley l State Rep. Boog Highberger l Njeri Shomari l Shirley Martin-Smith Appointed by Commissioner Matthew Herbert l Michelle Fales l Mark Preut l Dustin Rimmey Appointed by Commissioner Leslie Soden l Dennis Constance l Brenda Nunez l Melinda Toumi didate applications will be a matter of public record. l At a 6:30 p.m. meeting on Sept. 24, the advisory board will host a public forum and select six candidates to forward to the City Commission. l The four remaining Lawrence city commissioners will hold a special meeting at 5:45 p.m. on Oct. 1 to interview applicants and discuss the candidate and vacancy. Amyx said all interviews will be held in open session, in full view of the public. l City commissioners by a simple majority vote will select a candidate to fill the vacancy at the Oct. 6 City Commission meeting. The new commissioner will be sworn into office at that time. The new commissioner would serve until
the end of Farmer’s term, which is January 2018. Commissioner at their Tuesday evening meeting are expected to discuss additional criteria they want to use to evaluate commission candidates. Amyx is recommending that each candidate come with three letters of recommendation from Lawrence residents. “The applicant should have an extended history of involvement in community affairs,� Amyx wrote in a memo to commissioners. “They should exhibit a desire to serve the Lawrence voter and be accessible to such. A history of sound decision-making is desirable. The ability to devote the amount of time required of this position is a must.� Commissioners meet at 5:45 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall.

Plans also are unclear about what that portion of the property would be used for. It would be required to go through the full planning and approval process if a new use were proposed for that portion of the property. l Plans call for two to three swimming pools, three cabanas, a nearly 12,000-square-foot fitness and wellness center, 1,200 square feet of space for the Kansas Golf Hall of Fame and other amenities. Ultimately, city commissioners will have to get in on the approval process for any major changes at Alvamar. But first it is the Planning Commission. It will be an interesting project to watch. Alvamar has been an anchor for west Lawrence for a long time. With the downturn the golf industry has taken, I think there are genuine concerns about the longterm direction of the golf courses. The fate of this proposed multimillion dollar renovation will be an important one not just for golf fans, but really for the entire west Lawrence area. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday at LJWorld.com.

Stewart gets ‘Blunt’ in new comedy Many actors navigate between television and live theater. But the small screen is no place for “stagey” performances. That’s my main takeaway from screening “Blunt Talk” (8 p.m., Starz), a new comedy starring Patrick Stewart. He plays Walter Blunt, an over-the-top British cable news anchor whose taste for excess has ruined four marriages and threatens his job. One too many drinks leads to an encounter with a lady of the night, an altercation with police and a paparazzi ambush. Walter may be high on any combination of substances, but he still has the gusto to roar through passages of “Hamlet” for his pursuers. It’s that kind of show. If this weren’t dramatic enough, Walter decides to save his cable news show in the only way he can: by taping a series of questions and answering them live on the air. In short, he will interview himself — the very definition of a vanity project. A game cast of meek television producers and staff provides a backdrop for Walter’s antics. Adrian Scarborough (”The King’s Speech”) stands out as Harry, Walter’s manservant and confidant, a buddy from his Army days when Walter made his reputation for bravery during the brief Falklands War. Unfortunately, Harry is neither strong nor sober enough to play Jeeves to Walter’s Wooster. Too much of the humor here amounts to an adolescent’s idea of prurience. Drugs abound in the first episode, as do hints of an old-fashioned British S&M relationship between master and servant. In the second helping, Walter’s neighbor, a pornography producer, becomes rather obsessed with Harry’s manhood. “Blunt Talk” is produced by Seth MacFarlane.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS
For Saturday, Aug. 22: This year you often send mixed signals. Some people see you as being fussy and demanding; others enjoy your adventuresome nature. Try not to take wild risks. If you are single, you need someone who can handle the different sides of your personality. If you are attached, the two of you often enjoy time alone together. 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) What you hear and what your expectations are might not line up, which could cause a sense of irritation or anger. Tonight: Ever playful. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Listen to your inner voice about what you want. Tonight: Be a duo without expectations. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Question a person’s intentions if he or she seems too eager to give too much. Tonight: Let someone else make a suggestion. Cancer (June 21-July 22) Understand what is happening around you. Play it lowkey for the next few days. Tonight: Get plenty of R and R. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be experiencing more mood swings than usual. Others could be reactive. Tonight: Let the party go on.

How do I put this out of my mind? — Comments Please Dear Comments: Trust is such a fragile thing. No one expects you to forget this affair.

Virgo (Aug, 23-Sept. 22) An authority figure, perhaps an older relative or friend, could be demanding. Tonight: Prove that you can handle multiple gears. Libra (Sept.23-Oct.22) You have the right words, but a certain fussiness seems to emerge from you. Think and reflect. Tonight: A conversation is most enlightening. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Get an early start. You might surprise yourself by how much you have to do in order to keep the peace. Tonight: Treat someone to dinner. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have new vitality today, which many have missed for a few days. Tonight: The world is your oyster. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might not need to share what you are doing right now. Saying nothing would be a smart move. Tonight: All smiles, but saying little. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You have little to say and much to do. Make sure you know what you need to do. Tonight: The party goes on. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a way of getting closer to a certain person. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Dear Annie: I recently spoke to my 80-year-old dad about taking him to his home state to attend an event. I thought it might be nice to see other relatives, too. I planned to reserve a pavilion at a nearby park. I mentioned the idea to my sister so she could save the date. I did not ask for her input or help. The next thing I knew, she had contacted the relatives, booked a block of hotel rooms and is making plans for this family reunion. I told her I was annoyed by her takeover of the event. Now, she is not speaking to me. Was I wrong to want to make the plans without her? — Big Sister Dear Big Sister: We assume this type of sibling rivalry has gone on since the two of you were kids.

Syrian rebels need coherent U.S. strategy Washington — America’s botched effort last month to support a Syrian moderate rebel group known as “Division 30” was a chain of errors that recalls, in a small way, the 1961 Bay of Pigs fiasco. The Division 30 debacle has some clear and disturbing lessons: The rebels weren’t well prepared for their mission, and they had poor intelligence about potential adversaries inside Syria. The U.S. was too dependent on Turkey, and it didn’t have clear plans about how to respond if the rebels were attacked; although the U.S. eventually provided air support, it was too late to do much good. Division 30 was the first contingent of Syrian rebels deployed under a $500 million “train and equip” plan authorized last year by Congress. It’s an overt program, run by U.S. Special Forces, separate from a parallel covert program run by the CIA. The idea is to generate over 5,000 trained fighters a year who could help clear Islamic State extremists in Syria and then hold the ground. Many Syria analysts applauded the idea. By helping secure a safe zone in northern Syria, the force could facilitate humanitarian assistance and help provide greater security for the devastated population, in addition to pushing back the extremists. But the idea never had strong support from a White House that has been allergic to Syrian intervention.

“
Given America’s history of mismanaging military support for rebel groups over many decades, it’s a wonder that people like Abu Iskandar still want to enlist.”
Division 30 appears to have walked into a trap soon after its U.S.-trained contingent of 54 fighters entered Syria on July 12 to join up with fellow rebels at Azaz, just south of the Turkish border town of Kilis. Nearby were extremist fighters from Jabhat al-Nusra, the al-Qaida affiliate in Syria, but commanders didn’t think Jabhat al-Nusra would attack. That expectation proved wrong. The Jabhat al-Nusra extremists regarded Division 30 fighters as “American agents,” according to their Web postings. They kidnapped seven Division 30 fighters on July 29, and attacked its headquarters at Azaz on July 31. Jabhat al-Nusra kidnapped at least five more a few days later. The U.S. launched airstrikes July
31, but they had little effect. A Jabhat al-Nusra fighter named Ahamed Shaheed boasted online Thursday, “Just got a bran new M16 taken as ganimah (war spoils) from Division 30 haha,” according to monitoring by SITE Intelligence Group. Division 30’s difficulties illustrate U.S. problems working with Turkey. The rebel group was composed mainly of Syrians from the Turkmen ethnic group, recruited from an area north of Aleppo. The U.S. had preferred a plan to insert Kurdish and other Sunni fighters closer to Raqqa, the Islamic State’s self-proclaimed capital. But the Turks vetoed that plan. The Division 30 recruits were perhaps too boastful about their American links. A Twitter account maintained by the group included some unlikely posts: One showed the iconic image of Iwo Jima Marines, but raising a Syrian rebel flag; another displayed a bald eagle wrapped in Syrian colors; a third featured a bald eagle in a rebel crest. A vivid portrait of Division 30’s situation inside Syria comes from Jenan Moussa, a gutsy reporter for an Arabic television network called Al Aan. She interviewed Abu Iskandar, a Jordanian-trained rebel who is one of the group’s leaders, on Thursday in the countryside north of Aleppo. She emailed me English translations of some of his comments. “We were surprised by the at-

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Aug. 22, 1915: “J. Longnecker, 836 Rhode Island, has returned from his first visit to the neighborhood in which he was born and which years he left for Lawrence in 1869. He attended at ago Greenville, Ohio, near Dayton, a re-union of IN 1915 the Longneckers. Eighty-odd were present.” “At 2 o’clock this afternoon the county commissioners in called session began to listen to arguments in favor of relocating the bridge across the river at the end of Massachusetts street, the petitions asking for the relocation setting forth that it is advisable to start the structure from the south side of the river with the sides of the bridge coinciding with the side lines of the street. In other words eliminating the ‘jog’ by putting the bridge several rods nearer the Bowersock mills.”

tack by Nusra, because we coordinated in advance with Nusra,” Abu Iskandar said. “Four months ago, Nusra showed great admiration for the training project. Nusra said ... go get guns and come fight (the Islamic State).” Moussa said that although Abu Iskandar claimed he had 33 U.S.-trained fighters still with him, she only saw three. The rebel leader didn’t seem bitter. “He doesn’t bear any grudge against the U.S.,” Moussa said. “He was surprisingly optimistic and (said) that eventually 17,000 moderate forces trained by (the) U.S. will come to Syria.” Given America’s history of mismanaging military support for rebel groups over many decades, it’s a wonder that people like Abu Iskandar still want to enlist. When the CIA landed a Cuban rebel force at the Bay of Pigs in 1961, the U.S. failed to provide adequate planning, intelligence, air cover or political support. According to Evan Thomas’ 1995 book, “The Very Best Men,” a Cuban operative abandoned on the beach cursed his American handler in a last radio transmission: “And you, sir, are a son of a bitch.” Many Syrians surely feel a similar anger, but they still seem to want American help. The Syria nightmare deserves a coherent U.S. strategy — including new lessons learned from Division 30.

Just Food still filling an important need YOUR TURN
By Jeff Southard
After I retired as a corporate attorney in June, I had retirement all planned out: Work in the yard, see the grandkids, travel, do mediations in lawsuits and relax. After about two months, the yard looked OK, the grandkids were back in day care, the first trip was over, no one was calling for a mediation and I was bored. So, the volunteer bug came calling when I saw a notice that Just Food was seeking individuals to serve as “drivers.” Since I had been commuting out of town for 37 years, this sounded Southard like a piece of cake. I called the office and was told to come in for a volunteers’ orientation. The day I was to come in was Tuesday, Aug. 11. When I came down to breakfast that morning, my loving wife gave me the newspaper, saying “You’d better read this.” When I did, I learned (like the rest of Lawrence), that Jeremy Farmer had resigned as head of Just Food. Still, I didn’t see any rea-
son not to go, and I appeared at the appointed time. When I did, I found an office full of people who appeared to be going about their business, whether it was supervising, volunteering or getting food. There was no moaning, no gnashing of teeth, nothing. Encouraged, I filled out the paperwork and decided to come back to shadow drivers as they went out to pick up perishables from local grocers. I signed on for both Wednesday and Thursday, when I would be riding with a different volunteer each day. Wednesday arrived, and more news — Lawrence likely needed a new mayor. Still, the work goes on, and I dutifully appeared. The route was far more interesting than I had anticipated. On each day, the routine was the same: Check the dairy locker first, then produce, then meat, then the deli in the public area of the store and finally the bread. All of the food which we got on Wednesday (which came to at least 10 grocery carts full) was still within its due date, but would have been pitched but for Just Food. We had massive amounts of milk, pizza, prepared fruit, meats and sandwiches and bread of all

kinds. After loading the food in the van, we drove back to Just Food, where it was weighed and then sent to others who would prepare it for the clients. Thursday was the same. By then, it was official: Jeremy Farmer was out as mayor. Again, there was no panic, just a quiet assurance that the needs of the hungry would continue to be met. While each driver’s system was different, they both seemed to know everyone at the two stores and everyone knew them. We received numerous inquiries about what was going on, but no one questioned the need for Just Food’s existence. I felt both relieved and humbled for what I had seen and actually looked forward to Saturday, when I had volunteered to help with a collection barrel at one of the same stores. As it turned out, Saturday was stressful. I had volunteered to work for two hours, which works out to 7,200 seconds. The first 20 minutes were not so bad, given that members of the Just Food board were there to help. Eventually though, I was on my own. As a confirmed introvert, it took considerable effort to approach unsuspecting shoppers with my spiel. Amazingly, about 95 percent of the people I asked were receptive, or at least not

For the uninitiated, this includes things like peanut butter, tuna, cereal, pasta and other things which the daily pickups do not include. But for the generosity of shoppers like those last Saturday, Just Food would have to spend its limited resources for those items. While the response of almost everyone I approached was positive, the reaction of one man sticks in my mind. Toward the end of the shift, I approached him with the standard request: “Hi, we’re collecting food for Just Food, the local food pantry,” etc. For whatever reason, he proceeded to denigrate Just Foods, its leadership, volunteers and clients in no uncertain terms. Why he felt moved to do so I have no idea. I can only wish that he will never be in a position where he needs help to feed himself and his family. If he does, I trust he will find that Just Food is there for him, as it has been for thousands of others in Lawrence and Douglas County. As for me, I’ll be back on the truck this week. — Jeff Southard is a retired attorney and an aspiring mediator. He lives in Old West Lawrence with his wife, Peggy, and their three dogs.

Garden Variety
Jennifer Smith Redheaded ash borers and banded ash borers leave round to oval holes in trunks and branches that are typically about 6 millimeters in diameter. These borers are attracted to already-stressed trees and may be enough to kill the tree with other complicating factors. Emerald ash borer emergence holes are typically about 3 millimeters in diameter and have a characteristic D shape. The holes of all three of these borer species are very difficult to see in the furrowed bark of mature trees. Emerald ash borers also begin feeding in the uppermost part of ash trees, so their damage often goes unnoticed in early stages of infestation. Many homeowners are eager to use insecticides to protect their ash trees from emerald ash borers, and some landscape and tree care companies are
eager to sell treatments. Before deciding to treat, consider the age and health of the tree, cost of treatment over the long term (insecticides must be reapplied annually or biannually) and cost of removal and replacement. Treatments are more effective in young, healthy trees than in very large trees or in trees that are showing other signs of stress. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and Kansas Department of Agriculture are working to slow the spread of emerald ash borer with restrictions on the movement of firewood, ash trees and wood products from infested areas. More information about identification and treatment is available at emeraldashborer. info, through the Kansas Department of Agriculture and through K-State Research and Extension. — Jennifer Smith is a former horticulture extension agent for K-State Research and Extension and horticulturist for Lawrence Parks and Recreation.

EXOTIC PESTS KNOWN AS EMERALD ASH BORERS are on the move throughout the Kansas City metro area and may soon arrive in Douglas County. The insects pose a major threat to the health of the ash trees they infest.

sh trees in the area may be suffering from a number of maladies, but in Douglas County at least, emerald ash borers have yet to be confirmed as one of them. But that could soon change, because the dangerous pests are on the move throughout northeast Kansas. Emerald ash borers are widely publicized exotic insect pests that have devastated ash trees in the Great Lakes region and more recently the Kansas City metro area. When the emerald ash borer’s presence was first confirmed in Kansas in Wyandotte County in 2012, experts warned residents of neighboring counties to be on the lookout for the pest. As expected, emerald ash borers quickly spread to nearby Johnson and Leavenworth counties and are making their way outward from the initial find. In Douglas County, native insect borers, a defoliating leaf spot disease and a number of environmental factors are affecting ash trees seemingly more than usual, but they pose less of a danger to the trees they affect than the exotic pests. Native insect borers leave holes in the trunk and branches of ash trees similarly to the emerald ash borer and the insects are easily confused. Large (a quarter-inch in diameter or bigger) holes in the trunk or lower parts of an ash tree are most likely from the ash lilac borer, which feeds in the heartwood of ash trees. Ash lilac borers attack healthy trees, but although their feeding causes structural damage, it doesn’t affect the long-term health of the tree as much as emerald ash borers do.

BLOODBATH AS DOW SINKS 531 POINTS After shedding 1,000 this week, how low can average go? Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY
Talk about a bad week. The question now is how much worse it can get. The Dow Jones industrial average shed 1,000 points during the week — 531 points Friday — to push the market measure into a 10% correction. All told, the companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 have lost $1.14 trillion in market value — in
just one week, says S&P Dow Jones Indices. These large stocks fell 5.8% during the week, the worst showing since the 6.5% drop in September 2011, S&P Dow Jones says. “There will be more wringing out of this market. There’s been too much optimism,” Chris Johnson of JK Investment Group says. Here are a few ways to look at how badly the market could react going forward: uDown 37%. Currently, the S&P 500 is trading for 18.2 times its operating earnings over the
Oil falls below $40 a barrel

past 12 months. If things were to get extremely ugly, investors might fear that the market’s valuation by this measure might push to its lows. The market’s lowest P-E since 1988 was 11.5 set in late 1988, says S&P Dow Jones Indices. If the S&P 500 were to fall to this low-mark valuation, which
isn’t a common view, that would put the index at 1,239, or 37% lower than current levels. uDown 20%. If there’s a troubling sign, it’s that stock prices have continued to soar even as company’s revenue growth has been stagnant. The disconnect between growth and stock prices has created the unfortunate situation where stocks are trading for 1.8 times more than the revenue generated by companies, says Jack Ablin of BMO Private Bank. The 20-year median of this measure is 1.2. uDown 9.1%. Since the bull market started, there have been a total of 14 declines of 6% or more
from previous highs — putting them in line with this decline, says Bespoke Investment Group. If the S&P 500 ends the month above 2,000 that will be a comforting sign for investors, Johnson says; 2,000 is a key level not only because it’s a round number, but because it’s the 20-month moving average. But if it closed the month below, watch out, Johnson says. Neither Ablin nor Johnson think massive declines are the most likely outcomes. Ablin points out the market has raced ahead faster than the economy — so it has been overdue to see the market’s valuation come down.

or Donald Trump and his followers, the path to victory is fairly clear. First, consolidate his leads in Republican polls; then turn out enough supporters to win early state contests; then ride a wave of anti-establishment voters to the Republican presidential nomination and beyond.

oper from a front-running candidate to a plausible nominee. Although not many people beyond Trump’s orbit see it playing out that way, what is clear is that Trump has significant appeal with core GOP voters — and significant hurdles to overcome. Not that his supporters are worried. “I think he will win in Iowa, he will win in New Hampshire, and he will win in South Carolina,” said Stephen B. Stepanek, a Trump state co-chairman and volunteer from Milford, N.H. “And that momentum is going to carry him.” That path will not be easy. The closer Republicans get to actually voting — and there are more than five months to go before the Iowa
caucuses and the New Hampshire primary — the more they will question Trump’s volatility, analysts said. They’re likely to wonder about past positions that are more Democratic, such as support for a single-payer health care system. The question may be the durability of the Trump political phenomenon and how long it will take the GOP to coalesce around an anti-Trump alternative, said Brendan Nyhan, an assistant professor of government at Dartmouth College. “Republican elites are uncomfortable with him being the party’s nominee,” he said. “They’re not all powerful,

U.S. slows exercises with Seoul amid North’s war threats Kim Hjelmgaard and Doug Stanglin
@khjelmgaard, @dstanglin USA TODAY
Amid threats of war from North Korea, U.S. officials said Friday an annual joint military exercise with South Korea was briefly halted. The latest developments came after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un declared his front-line troops were in a “quasi-state of war” and ordered them to prepare for battle against South Korea in response to an exchange of artillery fire along the border.
David Shear, assistant secretary for Asia issues, told Pentagon reporters U.S. forces were at an increased security status for the exercise and “are remaining on an enhanced status as part of the exercise and, of course, to insure adequate deterrence on the peninsula.” Shear said the U.S. commander in South Korea decided to pause the exercise after consulting with South Korean military officials. He added that commanders needed to receive briefings about the gunfire situation to make sure both the U.S. and South Korea had “a mutual understanding of what the situation is.”

Tensions remain 10 years after Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza Some 8,500 Israeli settlers were forced to leave their homes in 2005 Michele Chabin
Special for USA TODAY HAZANI , ISRAEL Ten years after the Israeli military forced thousands of Jewish settlers to leave their homes in Gaza, that traumatic event continues to fuel Israel’s reluctance to uproot settlements in the West Bank. The month-long operation called the “disengagement” began a decade ago this month to evict 8,500 settlers from Gush Katif, a group of 21 settlements in southern Gaza. Israeli settlers had been there since 1968, the year after Israel took control of Gaza and the West Bank as part of the Six-Day War. The eviction came after Ariel Sharon, who was Israel’s hawkish prime minister in 2005, decided to destroy the Israeli settlements in Gaza in order to withdraw Israeli troops from the territory because they were increasingly the targets of Palestinian attackers. The settlers’ bitterness at losing their communities remains a thorn in the side of the Israeli government as it ponders the future of some 390,000 Jews now in West Bank settlements. Palestinians and the Israeli settlers have long disputed ownership of the West Bank. “Since the disengagement, successive governments have taken a very cautious approach to the idea of unilateral withdrawal from other territory,” said Efraim Inbar, director of the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Affairs. NETZER

Israeli settlers lit fires and took to the roofs to postpone their forced evacuation from the Gush Katif settlement in southern Gaza in August 2005. Many had been there since 1968. For most Israelis, “the lesson from the thousands of rockets launched at Israeli population centers” from Gaza “is that Palestinians don’t want peace,” Inbar said. After the evictions, which lasted until Sept. 12, 2005, the army razed the Gaza settlements. When the military left, Palestinian militant groups stepped up rocket attacks against Israel. Those attacks, coupled with the slow, inefficient way the government handled the newly home-
less settlers, has become a cautionary tale for the country. While many Israelis had hoped the Gaza disengagement would lead to a wider uprooting of West Bank settlements, the opposite has occurred, said Yariv Oppenheimer, general director of Peace Now, a group that tracks settlement building. “What happened post-disengagement reduced public support for a withdrawal from the West Bank,” Oppenheimer said. “That’s largely because the slogan com-
ing from the prime minister and right-wing is: ‘Withdraw from Territory, Get Rockets in Return.’ What’s forgotten is that placing 8,000 settlers in Gaza surrounded by 1 million Palestinians in the first place was illogical and immoral.” Hagit Ofran, who heads Peace Now’s Settlement Watch program, said Israel’s current government might decide to dismantle a handful of the 100 West Bank outposts, which are illegal settlements built without
government permits or funding, but it appears to have no intention of uprooting any of the established settlements authorized by the government. Some 10,000, overwhelmingly young, settlers live in the tiny outposts in flimsy, pre-fab structures. “I can envision a scenario where the government decides to move against specific, violenceprone outposts as a way of making us forget we’re continuing to develop the West Bank instead of preparing for a two-state solution,” Ofran said about the possibility of creating a separate Palestinian nation. Compared to the Gush Katif settlers, who mostly did not physically attack the soldiers who evacuated them, the current outpost settlers in the West Bank might use force, she said. “If they harm Israeli soldiers, they will lose public support and make it easier in the political arena to evict them,” Ofran said. Danny Brom, founding director of the Israel Center for the Treatment of Psychotrauma at Herzog Hospital in Jerusalem, believes the government’s treatment of the uprooted settlers from a decade ago and the huge price tag of the resettlement have made the Israeli public more cautious. Brom said it took years for the government to figure out how much each person should receive in compensation and years longer for people to receive land and build new homes. “The government invested a lot of money and offered psychological services, but it was really a disaster,” he said.

Autopsy shows St. Louis man killed by police shot in back Alexandra Martellaro KSDK-TV, St. Louis ST. LOUIS
The man who was fatally shot by police officers Wednesday died from a single gunshot wound to the back, a preliminary autopsy has confirmed. Mansur Ball-Bey, 18, was shot and killed by police officers while they were executing a warrant at a home in the north part of St. Louis. Police say two men armed with guns fled out the back door as officers were about to enter the house. Officers say Ball-Bey was armed with a firearm with an extended magazine, and the other suspect, a man in his mid- to lateteens, was armed with two guns and was in possession of crack cocaine. As the suspects fled, officers in the alley near the house ordered them to stop and drop their weapons. Police say Ball-Bey then turned and pointed a gun at the officers. Four guns, including the gun dropped by Ball-Bey, and “a quantity” of crack cocaine were recovered from the house. Police say three of the four weapons were stolen, including the gun Ball-Bey was holding. After further investigation, police say the gun recovered from Ball-Bey had been reported stolen from Rolla, Mo. One person has been arrested since the incident. Roderick Williams faces charges for unlawful possession of a firearm. Officers say Williams is not the other man who fled the home with Ball-Bey. Williams’ bond has been set at $50,000 cash. In a statement released Friday, the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department said, “The results of the autopsy along with witness statements and forensic evi-
dence, obtained during the (Force Investigative Unit) investigation, will be included in a final report.” The report will then be sent to the circuit attorney for the city who will conduct a review of the facts in the case. Police statements clash with statements from Ball-Bey’s family attorney, who says witnesses told him Ball-Bey was unarmed.
Teddy bears mark a makeshift memorial for Mansur BallBey, 18. A University of MissouriSt. Louis criminologist, David Klinger, said the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled it constitutional for police to shoot someone in the back if they believe that person could be a threat. Ball-Bey’s death triggered a series of protests that have been violent at times. Crowds began to gather Wednesday afternoon, shortly after the shooting. Wednesday night, police said some vacant buildings and a car were set on fire. Several businesses also reported burglaries. Nine people were arrested. Contributing: Jimmy Berhnard, KSDKTV, St. Louis
but they can exert a lot of leverage.” Whatever happens in the next six months or so, the New Yorkbased billionaire has put his political stamp on the summer of 2015, and Republican opponents will have to deal with him one way or another. Trump has convinced a large cadre of volunteers that he can go all the way by stressing issues such as immigration and trade and attracting potential voters who have sat out previous elections because they dislike traditional politicians. In an interview with Bill O’Reilly of Fox News this week, Trump played up the notion that he can bring in people who had given up on politics. “If you look at the polls that are coming out on me, they have a great incentive to vote,” Trump said. “They like what I say. I think they like me in a certain way which is nice. It is always nice to be liked.” Tana Goertz, a former contestant on NBC’s The Apprentice who co-chairs Trump’s efforts in Iowa, said Iowans say this is the first time they’ve been excited about politics — and they want to pledge to vote for Trump. She said she’s bombarded with volunteer requests from college-age Iowans old enough to caucus for the first time. The early states are key to Trump’s chances (as well as his many opponents). Other than his campaign headquarters at Trump Tower in New York, they are the only places where he has full-time staff members, the campaign said: 10 in Iowa, eight in New Hampshire and seven in South Carolina. He has volunteers in other states; those in Alabama planned a rally that was to be held Friday night at a football stadium in Mobile. Trump and aides said they will have people in all 50 states, an effort critical for a range of campaign activities, from organizing events to making sure he’s on the ballot in every state. The first true test comes with the Iowa caucuses in early February. CAN HE WIN EVANGELICALS?
Christian conservatives want a president who exhibits family stability, faith in God, business ethics and humility, characteristics that don’t exactly apply to a man on his third marriage, who admits he has never sought God’s forgiveness and regularly boasts
“I think he will win in Iowa, he will win in New Hampshire, and he will win in South Carolina. And that momentum is going to carry him.” Stephen B. Stepanek, a Trump state co-chairman and volunteer from Milford, N.H.
about his wealth and his conspicuous consumption. But Christian conservatives take delight in Trump “throwing a monkey wrench into the early coronation of a moderate Republican,” said American Renewal Project leader David Lane, who is helping Iowa evangelical conservative pastors mobilize an army of like-minded voters. It won’t be easy for some social conservatives to caucus with a candidate who has no daily relationship with Jesus Christ. “Evangelicals will most likely not vote to nominate Mr. Trump as the Republican nominee for president in 2016,” Lane said. Goertz pointed out that Trump abstains from drinking and gambling. “And when he says he hasn’t sought God’s forgiveness, he’s just being honest. Most politicians aren’t that transparent,” said Goertz, who was raised in the Mormon faith. “In my experience, what people love is his honesty.” Some wouldn’t call it honesty. “It’s not going to happen right away,” said Wes Enos, who worked for the campaign of Christian conservative Michele Bachmann in 2012, “but eventually, Trump will look like old news — and obnoxious.” TAPPING DISCONTENT
Lou Gargiulo, a county chairman for Trump in New Hampshire, said the billionaire “speaks to issues I care about,” including jobs and protecting the border. “The other candidates,” he said, “seem to dance around these issues.” Trump’s people said he can win because he taps a large vein of voter discontent. He has the money and independence to challenge the status quo, they
said, and his billionaire status shows he knows how to create jobs. Donald Fowler, a former Democratic National Committee chairman who lives in South Carolina, said Trump may well have strong appeal in that very Republican state. His message plays well with conservatives who believe that cheap foreign labor, bad trade deals and immigration — legal or otherwise — have cost Americans jobs and that the so-called political establishment has failed to address these problems. Many of the same polls that put Trump ahead also show a majority of Republicans unwilling to back the businessman as the actual nominee, analysts noted. Dante Scala, a political science professor at the University of New Hampshire, said Trump may have a ceiling of support. “I still find it unlikely that someone with so little party support can win the nomination,” Scala said.

WASHINGTON It was a question that launched a million hashtags. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew asked Americans in June which historical woman he should put on the front of the $10 bill. Now, he wants people to think about the back — and not just of $10 bills, but of $5 and $20 bills. “A lot of the debate has focused on one square inch of one bill, and that’s not where we intended the focus to be,” Lew said. “It’s bigger than this one thing that’s going to happen to this one note.” The next generation of bills will be the most complete overhaul of U.S. currency in almost a century. In addition to featuring a woman for the first time, new bills will contain new anticounterfeiting measures — some of them secret — tactile features for the blind, fewer buildings and monuments and, possibly, fewer dead presidents. Each bill could have more than one figurehead, or there could be different series of the same denomination, each with different designs.

Many of those comments objected to the perceived demotion of Alexander Hamilton, who adorns the $10, and want President Andrew Jackson replaced on the $20 instead. Treasury officials said that debate was coming mostly from the media and from Hamilton’s

Regardless, Lew said Hamilton — who, after all, was his predecessor as Treasury secretary — will remain on U.S. currency. U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios acknowledged that “Hamiltonversus-Jackson rhetoric” had driven much of the early debate. But everyday Americans, she said, are focused on the women.
The main contenders seem to be abolitionist Harriet Tubman and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, with some support for civil rights leader Rosa Parks.

The Islamic State’s No. 2 leader was killed by a U.S. airstrike this week in Iraq, U.S. officials announced Friday. Fadhil Ahmad al-Hayali, also known as Hajji Mutazz, was killed Tuesday in Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, which has been under the control of militants since last year, the National Security Council said in a statement. He is a critical operational leader instrumental in planning the Islamic State attack in Mosul in June 2014, the statement said. That attack was a dramatic success for the Islamic State, leading to the collapse of four Iraqi divisions and the capture of enormous stocks of U.S.-supplied weapons, including tanks and armored vehicles. — Jim Michaels TWO PEOPLE DEAD IN NYC SHOOTING

President Obama has told Congress that the United States will “take whatever means are necessary” to enforce the Iran agreement and prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons, including the threat of military force. “Should Iran seek to dash toward a nuclear weapon, all of the options available to the United States — including the military option — will remain available through the life of the deal and beyond,” Obama said in a letter. The White House sent the letter to Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., who endorsed the Iran agreement Friday, The New York Times reports. The letter comes as the Obama administration closes in on enough support from lawmakers to sustain the agreement in which the U.S. and its allies end sanctions on Iran while it gives up the means to make nuclear weapons. The Republican-run House and Senate could vote for a resolution of disapproval, but Obama would veto it. The administration is getting close to securing enough lawmakers to sustain such a veto.

“All of the options available to the United States — including the military option — will remain available.” President Obama
and other critics of the agreement say it leaves too much room for Iran to cheat and pursue nuclear weapons. In his letter, Obama said the U.S. and allies are poised to “snap back” economic sanctions should Iran fail to live up to its agreement. “In fact, we have a wide range of unilateral and multilateral responses that we can employ should Iran fail to meet its commitments,” Obama wrote.

10 YEARS LATER: THE AFTERMATH OF HURRICANE KATRINA
H
urricane Katrina barreled into the Gulf Coast on the morning of Aug. 29, 2005. The force of the storm and the ensuing collapse of the federal levees surrounding New Orleans caused 1,800 deaths, damaged 500,000 homes, displaced more than 1 million people and caused more than $151 billion in damages along the Gulf Coast, according to figures compiled by the New Orleans-based The Data Center and the city of New Orleans. It remains the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history. Ten years later, New Orleans, which took the brunt of the damage when the levees failed, submerging 80% of the city, is a vastly improved place on many levels. The storm and the ensuing floods radically altered the lives of tens of thousands of people along the Gulf Coast. In New Orleans, a place steeped in tradition, those changes left a lasting impact.

MONEYLINE BLOOMBERG EDITOR OUT AFTER EMBARGO BROKEN Bloomberg News has fired an editor who inadvertently broke an embargo of a Federal Reserve report Wednesday. Chris Wellisz, Bloomberg’s U.S. economic policy team leader, left the Washington bureau Thursday afternoon, according to the ‘New York Post.’ Bloomberg News declined to comment. Agencies often release sensitive and complex reports to journalists on an embargoed basis — a promise to withhold publishing until an agreed-upon time — so that reporters have time to digest the information.

But it did find a discrepancy: the Model S rocketed from zero to 60 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds — “quickest we’ve ever tested,” says Jake Fisher — but not the 3.1 seconds that the company claims. “When it says ‘insane mode,’ it really means it,” Fisher says — even though the number was slightly shy of the company’s claim.

OIL PRICES FALL BELOW $40 A BARREL
SPENCER PLATT, GETTY IMAGES
Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY
Oil prices dipped below $40 a barrel Friday for the first time in 6½ years on the prospect of falling global demand, busting through a key threshold that could signal further declines and market turmoil. The price of West Texas Intermediate for October delivery dropped as low as $39.86 a barrel, the first time it was less than $40 since March 2009. Crude rallied to close at $40.45, but it was still down 87 cents on the day. And some analysts say the drop below $40 likely portends an additional slide into the $30s and continued weakness in the short term. “It’s a very important psychological level,” says Phil Flynn, senior energy analyst with the Price Futures Group. “It really signals that the global economy is in trouble.” U.S. crude prices have fallen for eight consecutive weeks, the longest such stretch since 1986. Fueling Friday’s drop was a report manufacturing activity in China recently tumbled to the lowest level in more than six years. That underscored the recent fall in Chinese stocks and the government’s currency devaluation reflects fundamental weakness in the world’s second-

largest economy. Global supplies, meanwhile, are abundant, with production from both the U.S. and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries at or near record levels. Saudi Arabia has said it would not scale back output to prop up prices. Further pushing down prices was a government report that U.S. oil inventories unexpectedly rose last week. And the start of a refinery maintenance season slated to run through October is throwing more crude onto the market, says Tom Kloza, chief global analyst for the Oil Price Information Service. But both Flynn and Kloza say the bear oil market is likely to be short-lived. Flynn expects the Chinese government to pump more monetary stimulus into the economy to fuel demand. And a report Thursday from research firm Genscape says U.S. drilling cutbacks this year have reduced production by far more than government figures show. Flynn says that should help nudge up prices in coming months. Meanwhile, the end of refinery maintenance in November will likely coincide with the beginning of the winter fuel season, further supporting crude prices, Kloza says. He predicts oil could hover in the $30-$40 range for a couple of months before rising toward $50 by the end of the year.

Moskovitz: Companies get nothing in return

NEWS MONEY SPORTS LIFE AUTOS TRAVEL
SAN FRANCISCO The tech industry threatens to cannibalize itself, forcing its talented and young workforce to pursue work over life with the inevitable end result being compromised results and miserable employees. That’s not the rant of an outsider jumping on the anti-Amazon bandwagon launched by a recent New York Times exposé of the Seattle company’s grinding business practices. It’s the regretful lament of Dustin Moskovitz, one of the founders of Facebook and current CEO of workplace collaboration start-up Asana. “It is with deep sadness that I observe the current culture of intensity in the tech industry,” Moskovitz wrote in a Medium.com essay Thursday titled Work Hard, Live Well. Its sub-headline: Amazon isn’t the only company burning out their employees with unsustainable expectations. Let’s break the cycle. “My intellectual conclusion is that these companies are both destroying the personal lives of
their employees and getting nothing in return,” he writes, citing the example of a recent Asana candidate who described a rival company’s practice of offering company dinners late so workers would stay into the night. “This kind of attitude not only hurts young workers who are willing to ‘step up’ to the expectation, but facilitates ageism and sexism by indirectly discriminating against people who cannot maintain that kind of schedule.” Moskovitz cites research conducted by Henry Ford that concludes fewer hours increased employee output. “The research is clear: beyond 40 to 50 hours per week, the marginal returns from additional work decrease rapidly and quickly become negative,” he writes. So why are some companies driving their workers furiously? “It must be some combination of one, not knowing the research, two, believing the research is somehow flawed or doesn’t apply to them (they’re wrong), or three, understanding that many people see these cultural artifacts as a signal about the intensity and passion of the team.”
“It is with deep sadness that I observe the current culture of intensity in the tech industry,” Asana CEO Dustin Moskovitz writes in a Medium.com essay. ARAYA DIAZ, GETTY IMAGES FOR TECHCRUNCH
Apple rode this bull market up — becoming the USA’s most valuable company in the process. But now, the market’s momentum is taking away a good chunk of what it gave. Shares of Apple were crushed again Friday, falling $6.89, or 6.1%, to $105.76. The stock is now down a bruising 8.5% just this week — making it an even worse performer in an ugly stock market. The fate of Apple is more than a story of a single stock. Apple is the the stock that captures, if not personifies, this bull market. It’s a top holding by individual investors — many of whom are new in the market. Its shares have benefited from the mobile data boom, which fueled much of the bull market. And Apple’s enormous profit margins and surging record cash pile are a testimony of the company’s ability to command premium pricing for its products — and consumers’ willingness to pay up. But the same factors that made Apple so important during the bull market makes it the key stock to watch as the market unravels. The Apple stock crash is reaching proportions that are downright ugly — breaching three important levels that quantify just how this isn’t your typical decline. Apple’s fall has now:
ANDREW BURTON, GETTY IMAGES
uWiped out 2015 gains. Apple has swung into the red for the year, taking away the one security blanket investors have had while the rest of the market suffered. Shares of Apple are now down 3.2% on the year — a rude awakening since the stock had been up as much as 22% through its high this year. Apple is better off than the market, which is now down 3.8% on the year, but the downturn is fast and furious. uPut the stock in a bear market. Showing just how rapid the decline has been, shares of Apple are now down a brutal 20.6% from their high hit earlier this year of $134.50 a share. This is an important level since a 20% decline puts Apple in what’s considered to be the unofficial definition of a bear market. The broader market is down just 6% from its high — showing how much harder Apple has been hit. Seeing a key stock such as Apple join the ranks of stocks in bear markets is an eye-opener for individual investors. Apple is a top holding by individual investors, Sigfig.com says. uShredded $158 billion in shareholder wealth. During the bull market, investors were counting just how many billions they could make from Apple. Bulls were calling for Apple to be the first company worth $1 trillion. But how things have turned south. Investors have seen more than $150 billion in paper wealth vanish. That’s an enormous destruction in wealth, equivalent to wiping out massive companies such as Pepsico or Intel. Analysts remain steadfastly bullish on the stock and the company, which is still the nation’s most valuable at $618 billion. Analysts on average rate the stock “outperform” and have an average 18-month price target of $147.98.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch David Craig @davidgcraig USA TODAY
The stock market is all about numbers. And right now there are a few numbers lurking out there that bear keeping a very close eye on. There are different labels for stock market drops. But the two main categories are a correction and a bear market. And that matters now because we could be talking a lot about those in coming weeks considering the beating the stock market has been taking. Friday, the Dow Jones industrials fell 531 points, or 3.1%, to 16,460 — the lowest close since Oct. 20 — on concerns about global economic growth, falling oil prices and uncertainty about a Federal Reserve rate hike.

Market darling in free fall, but expect rebound Q: Is the Apple stock boom dead? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: Newbie investors didn’t need to know much about stocks to make money. All they had to do is buy Apple. This easy and crowded trade is looking less like money in the bank now. Shares of the electronic gadget maker Friday cratered again, more than 6%, to close at $105.76. Shares of the former stock market darling are now down 21% from their high notched this year — putting it squarely in bear market territory. A bear market is unofficially defined as a 20% or greater decline from a recent high. Apple faithful will figure this is a temporary blip. Shares of Apple are up more than 1,600% over the past 10 years, making the Standard & Poor’s 500’s roughly 70% gain during that time look like nothing. Wall Street analysts are also supporting the stock, saying it will be worth nearly $150 in 18 months. The company also has more than $200 billion in cash and investments, which can be returned in part to investors. But the company is also facing obstacles it hasn’t before: a slowdown in China and a stall in smartphone sales growth. None of the company’s new products have caught on like the iPhone. And shares can crash further. The stock’s last crash in 2012 sent the stock down 43% before recovering.
Intuit shares hit skids after earnings miss, weak forecast Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY
Shares of TurboTax maker Intuit fell sharply amid a broader market sell-off Friday, one day after the software firm reported earnings that fell short of Wall Street expectations and issued a weaker-than-expected outlook. The company’s stock closed down 13.26% at $89.28 a share Friday, the biggest drop in more than a decade. Intuit on Thursday reported fourth-quarter net revenue of
$696 million for the three-month period ending July 31, below the $735.9 million forecast by Wall Street analysts. The company reported a 5 cents a share quarterly loss, better than the 11-cent loss analysts had projected. Intuit said it expects revenue of $4.525 billion to $4.6 billion for the current fiscal year. Although those totals would represent growth of 8% to 10%, they were below the $5.04 billion forecast by analysts. The $3.40 to $3.45 earnings per share guidance Intuit issued for the fiscal year similarly was lower than the $3.82 analysts expected. Moving to sharpen its focus on

Intuit CEO Brad Smith says his company is committed to the cloud.
its popular software for personal tax-preparation and small business management, Intuit said it would sell three other product lines: Demandforce, an automated marketing and communica-
tions software; QuickBase, used for managing company projects and reports; and Quicken, Intuit’s initial accounting software. The planned sales will reduce fiscal 2016 revenue by approximately $250 million and lower earnings per share by roughly 10 cents, the company said. “We are fully committed to winning in the cloud, and we’re focusing our attention and investments on assets that accelerate our ability to deliver our two strategic goals: first, to be the operating system behind small business success; and second, to do the nation’s taxes,” Intuit President and
CEO Brad Smith said Thursday. Users of top-selling TurboTax protested in January after Intuit announced a change that would effectively force them to buy the most-expensive version of the tax-filing software. The company later backtracked on what would have been a 50% cost increase and agreed to issue refunds. In February, Intuit briefly suspended electronic filing of state tax returns via TurboTax following a surge in tax-refund theft in 19 states. The company later said the stolen identification data that enabled the theft increase did not result from an Intuit breach.

‘Unauthorized’ movies tap nostalgia, not dirt ‘Full House Story’ is latest TV valentine Patrick Ryan
@PatRyanWrites USA TODAY
Dare to taint our memories of Full House, and you’re in big trouble, mister. If you didn’t know that Danny Tanner had a sailor’s mouth, or that Uncle Jesse was a womanizer, then Lifetime’s The Unauthorized Full House Story is here to remove your rose-colored glasses. But viewers tuning in for shocking reveals might be disappointed: The network’s Unauthorized movies would rather evoke nostalgia than dig real dirt. “We’ve always thought of them as valentines to these shows,” says Ron McGee, who wrote the Full House movie and last year’s The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story. “Everybody loved and grew up watching these shows. It’s about celebrating that.” Full House is the second chapter in Lifetime’s Unauthorized franchise, which next puts the microscope on Beverly Hills, 90210 and Melrose Place in Octo-
SERGEI BACHLAKOV
The Unauthorized Full House Story cast was chosen in part for the resemblance to actors they portray. Andrea Barber (neighbor Kimmy Gibbler) called the cast photo “creepy.” ber. NBC’s similar Behind the Camera movies pulled back the curtain on series such as Charlie’s Angels, Mork & Mindy and Three’s Company a decade ago, partly inspiring Unauthorized, says Tanya Lopez, a Lifetime senior VP. First up was Saved by the Bell, the high school sitcom that aired in the ’90s. Last September’s tellall film was based in part on cast member Dustin Diamond’s 2009
memoir Behind the Bell. Lifetime owned the rights to the book, which was denounced by his costars for its accusations of drug use and sexual escapades. McGee only used claims he could back up with other interviews, relying instead on public records, TV appearances and magazine stories to shape the narrative. “From a legal standpoint, you need sources on everything,”
McGee says. For example, racier Full House scenes of Bob Saget (Garrett Brawith) and John Stamos (Justin Gaston) are from Saget’s 2014 memoir Dirty Daddy: The Chronicles of a Family Man Turned Filthy Comedian. For legal reasons, Unauthorized movies can’t replicate sets or costumes, but actors and characters are fair game. The network selects actors who resemble the stars they portray. Casting director Blyth Nailling tapped Abbie Cobb, who starred in CW’s 90210 update, to play Beverly Hills star Jennie Garth in the unauthorized movie. “People have compared her to Jennie for her entire life, Nailling says. Days of Our Lives actor Justin Gaston was first considered for his looks and watched the sitcom to study Stamos’ mannerisms and voice. He says, “Whether (Stamos) watches or not? That kind of makes me nervous,” Gaston says. “If he does, I hope he’s happy with how it turns out.” THE UNAUTHORIZED FULL HOUSE STORY LIFETIME, SATURDAY, 8 ET/PT

In-depth guesses First-year Kansas University head football coach David Beaty hasn’t revealed a depth chart, even to his players, but one appears to be falling into place.

Cueto shelled; Royals fall, 7-2 Boston (ap) — When you’re the defending AL champion and you have a double-digit lead in the division, it’s easy to shrug off a two-game slump. Johnny Cueto had his worst start since coming to Kansas City, the Royals committed a pair of errors, and they managed just four hits against a rookie making his fourth start on Friday as they fell to the Red Sox for the second straight night. “No aspect of our game was tremendously good tonight,” manager Ned Yost said after the 7-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox. “It’s rare
when it happens, but it happens.” The Royals entered the series against last-place Boston with a 141⁄2-game lead in the division and a five-game winning streak. Cueto (2-2) had allowed just six runs in four previous starts for the AL Central-leading Royals. He allowed six earned runs and 13 hits on Friday, striking out three before leaving after six innings. The Royals Charlie Riedel/AP Photo also committed two errors, KANSAS CITY OUTSIDE LINEBACKERS RAMIK leading to another run. “He’s been doing a good WILSON (53) and Josh Martin wrap up Seahawks running back Christine Michael in the Chiefs’ Please see ROYALS, page 4C 14-13 victory Friday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Chiefs hold off Seattle, 14-13 Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid insists he has a handle on who will start along the offensive line when Kansas City opens the regular season, assuming a couple of players get healthy. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll? He remains decidedly noncommittal about his own. Alex Smith threw for 81 yards and a touchdown behind a hodgepodge bunch of blockers — and also tossed an interception that was returned for a touchdown — as Kansas City beat Seattle
14-13 in a preseason game Friday night. “You know what? For being a makeshift group, I thought they were OK,” Reid said of his line, which was missing left tackle Eric Fisher to an ankle injury and right guard Jeff Allen to a knee sprain. “They tightened up a little bit and got better.” Meanwhile, the Seahawks turned over three of their five starters on the offensive line from their preseason loss to Denver, and the result was some patchy Please see CHIEFS, page 4C

If we’re to believe Art Briles was unaware of Sam Ukwua chu’s violent history before allowing him to transfer to Baylor, where he subsequently assaulted a female student, it’s still an indictment of the way Briles does business. If we’re to believe Chris Petersen, it’s something much worse. Either way, Baylor needs the fortitude to seek the truth, something it apparently lacked when investigating the assault of one of its own students. And if the truth is that Briles is lying, then he needs to go. This sordid story, incred ibly, came out of nowhere Friday, a day after a jury found Ukwuachu guilty of second degree assault. If that’s all it had been, it would have been bad enough. But what we’ve learned is that Ukwuachu had been kicked off the Boise State football team after punching and choking his girlfriend. Then after Ukwuachu trans ferred to Baylor, and attacked a member of the soccer team in his apartment, both the uni versity and Waco police failed the victim. And what, exactly, is Briles’ culpability? He tells reporters he had no idea why Petersen, then the coach at Boise State and now at Washington, kicked the defensive end from Pearland, Texas, off the team, other than he was depressed and needed to go home. Petersen’s version is that once he learned Ukwuachu wanted to transfer to Baylor, he picked up the phone and called Briles. “In that conversation,” Petersen said in a statement to ESPN, “I thoroughly ap prised coach Briles of the circumstances surrounding Sam’s disciplinary record and dismissal.” What we have here is one coach saying, “Hey, nobody told me he was a bad kid,” and the other saying, “Oh, no you don’t.” You don’t often see a head coach from a prominent pro gram contradicting the take of another one, but reputations and credibility are at stake. Briles is famous in the coaching fraternity for accept ing transfers who’d been in trouble at their former schools and winning with them. But taking guys who couldn’t make curfew or study hall or smoked too much weed is one thing. A history of violence against women? Intolerable. How do we know? Briles says so. “Nobody is going to do that,” he told reporters Friday. “Bring somebody in with a pri or conviction or really an al legation. Like I said, we made our decision on the knowledge we had two years ago.” Only that’s not what Chris Petersen says. Or what Uk wuachu told Rivals.com. “The Baylor coaches knew everything and were really supportive so I appreciate that,” Ukwuachu said in 2013 after his transfer became official. Five months later, Ukwua chu attacked a student known in court records as Jane Doe. After she came forward with her charges, the student, who has since transferred to another school, was repeat edly failed. First, by university officials, whose investigation was so thin that the judge in Ukwuachu’s trial sustained the prosecution’s motion that the defense couldn’t bring it up. The other failure was in allowing Ukwuachu on the Waco campus at all. Even if Briles is telling the truth, he should have known better. And if he’s lying, he needs to go.

TIGER WOODS LINES UP A PUTT ON THE 17TH HOLE during the second round of the Wyndham Championship golf tournament on Friday in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Woods grabs share of lead at 11-under Greensboro, N.C. — Tiger Woods signed up for his first Wyndham Championship knowing a win would definitively keep his season from ending. He’s halfway there. Woods shot a 5-under 65 on Friday to share the second-round lead with rookie Tom Hoge. “I’m only at the halfway point,” Woods said. “Only 36 holes. We’ve still got a long way to go.” Woods and Hoge were at 11-under 129. Hoge shot a 67. The sport’s biggest name put himself in prime position to contend for his first victory in more than two years, one that would send him into the FedEx Cup playoffs. Woods followed his best round since 2013 — a first-day 64 — with one almost as good. He made his big move up the leaderboard on the back nine, with birdies on Nos. 12 and 13 and an eagle on the par-5 13th that gave him a share of the lead. “I just couldn’t get anything out of my rounds (before this tournament) and a couple lucky bounces here, take advantage of those opportunities — it’s just the flow,” Woods said. Now he’ll spend today playing with an unfamiliar rookie. Asked if he would recognize Hoge to see him, Woods responded: “No, I wouldn’t. What is it, or him?” “I come out here, I don’t really know a lot of people.”
a touchdown pass in the fourth, and the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner is showing more improvement early in his second season. Pettine has not yet named his starter for the Sept. 13 season opener, but said the performances by McCown and Manziel did not change the depth chart.
Golson has shoulder surgery Latrobe, Pa. — Pittsburgh Steelers rookie cornerback Senquez Golson underwent shoulder surgery on Friday and is out indefinitely. The second-round pick out of Mississippi has been on the physically unable to perform list since training camp began nearly four weeks ago. Coach Mike Tomlin said Friday he’s not certain what path the Steelers will follow when Golson begins rehabilitation. Golson was a full participant in organized training activities and minicamp during the spring but showed up to camp at Saint Vincent College with the shoulder issue. Tomlin praised Golson’s effort but said the shoulder had gotten to the point where it was time to get it fixed. Pittsburgh took Golson with the 56th overall pick in the draft following the retirement of veteran Ike Taylor. The Steelers will host Green Bay in a preseason game Sunday. COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Cornerback: 1. Brandon Stewart, 6-0, 171, Jr.; 2. Ronnie Davis, 6-0, 192, Sr. Comment: It might take him time to refine his technique and adjust to the better competition, but Stewart projects as the team’s best corner. Cornerback: 1. Tyrone Miller, 6-0, 180, Fr.; 2. Matthew Boateng, 5-11, 176, So. Comment: It didn’t take long for the coaching staff to become high on Miller, and nothing he has done since has changed anybody’s mind. Strong safety: 1. Fish Smithson, 5-11, 193; 2. Michael Glatczak, 5-10, 173, Sr. Comment: Smithson has a nose for the ball and picked up valuable experience last season. Free safety: 1. Bazie Bates, 6-1, 186, Jr.; 2. Allen. Comment: Bates is one of the squad’s loudest talents, a hard-hitter with the speed and agility to stay with talented wide receivers. Punter: 1. Eric Kahn, 6-5, 204, Sr.; 2. Ruben Guzman, 5-8, 190, Sr. Comment: Kahn needs to perfect a quicker release, or Guzman, a lefty who hangs them really, really high, could move ahead of him.
Loneker turning heads at camp spots on the offensive line, Beaty said O-line coach Zach Yenser had to get creative this month. “Offensive-line-wise, we’re still short-handed,” Beaty said. “So those guys have to be versatile. They’ve gotta play every position. We kind of are looking at it like we’re coaching NFL guys, and you’ve got eight guys available, and they have to be able to play multiple positions. Coach Yenser has done a really good job of doing that and making sure we prepare guys to play all those spots.”

He can’t officially play for the Kansas University football team for another year, but one newcomer added to the team this summer already has impressed head coach David Beaty enough to earn some praise near the end of preseason camp. “His name is Keith Loneker,” the first-year KU coach said Friday. “And, man, all he does is make plays.” Loneker, a Free State High graduate and the son of former KU and NFL offensive lineman Keith Loneker Sr., transferred to KU from Baker, where he earned freshman All-American honors last season. He has to sit out this season as a walk-on, but you wouldn’t be able to tell it based on his performance in camp. “Every time I look up, he’s making a play, or he’s making it hard on our first group with regard to what he’s doing in the scout position,” Beaty said of the 6-foot2, 225-pound sophomore. “He makes it very difficult. You cannot take a play off with Keith out there because you’re gonna be made to look KU SCHEDULE bad. He will expose you.” It’s not just the tackles Sept. 5 — South Dakota State, and reads that Loneker 11 a.m. (FOX SPORTS) Sept. 12 — Memphis, 6 p.m. has made that have im(JAYHAWK TV) pressed Beaty.

The top six are pretty well set in stone: Tre’ Parmalee, Joshua Stanford, Steven Sims, Quincy Perdue, Shakiem Barbel and Derrick Neal. After that, Bobby Hartzog, Darious Crawley and Chase Harrell appear to be battling to fill in the next three spots. “They’re competing,” Beaty said. “It’s a battle out there.

It was kind of a crack-type deal. We gotta hold him back. He’s one of those great-work-ethic guys. Hopefully we can get him back here in a couple weeks.”
Youth will be served With the overall numbers down and depth hurting in some areas, Beaty made it clear Friday the Jayhawks would not hold anyone back this fall based on age. “We’re gonna play some young guys this year,” he said. “There’ll be a bunch of ’em we’ll play.

She fees are waived for is one of our pets of the week. pets of the week! Hurry in.
Bella
Bella seems to be enjoying her stay with us. Picture time was a party with her. She is a cute little 2 year old Rat Terrier mix and has a tri colored coat. (Eyebrows are included.) She has experience with cats, dogs and children. Older children are preferred. Little ones are just too high maintenance for her. If you would like to meet this wiggle worm, bring all interested parties to meet her.
layla
Layla is a sweet little Pit Bull mix with an adorable face. She always looks worried and concerned, but she warms up quickly, especially when she gets to cuddle with you. She is a little over 1 year old and has a black and white coat.. She has adjusted well to being here, but would be much happier with her own family and home. With some TLC and time, it will be like she was always with you.
Jerry
Jerry came in with two other dogs (siblings?). He is one of the dogs who will need a patient and caring adopter to help him come out of his shell. He is a little Beagle mix and has a black and tan coat. He would do much better in a home with another dog, but may not do well with small children. He is starting to come around in the adopt area, so come take a look.
CiCily
It’s a good thing Cicily has had 5 years to learn how to be patient. She has been here since April and we can’t figure out why. She is a gorgeous Domestic Long Hair with black and white colors. She loves to be brushed and won’t turn down a snuggle if you are so inclined. If you don’t have a carrier and collar, you can purchase them here fees are waived for to take her home.

Bashful
Once again we find ourselves with a beautiful little Cockatiel to hang out with in the adoptions office. We don’t know if this sweetie is a male or female, but we are told that he/she is about 4 years old. Bashful can say a few things,”pretty baby” being one of them. When it comes to whistling, Bashful is quite the mimic. You will need to bring a small cage to transport this little one home.
Blanston
See this face? This is the face of a cat who is content in his surroundings. Blanston is a 2 year old Domestic Short Hair with brown and black tabby markings. He came to us from another agency and is waiting quietly for his new family to come in and adopt him. If he can adjust this well to the busy life of the shelter, he should be able to adapt quickly to your home.
BlanCo
If you have a dog and are thinking of getting another, Blanco would love to meet you both. He is a fun Pit Bull mix with an almost all white coat. He has some spots on his ears and would like for you to know that he is 2 years old. Life in the shelter keeps him busy, but he is ready to find his forever family and become the couch potato he has always wanted to be.
Beaty said. “It’s hard to go through spring ball with three corners.”
Can’t adopt? then please donate! Call, e-mail or Come Visit! help us help them!
lego
One of things people often ask about our dogs is “are they housebroken?” Lego is one that we can say with certainty that she is. She does well with other dogs and older children would be more her cup of tea. She is a beautiful 5 year old Labrador Retriever with a shiny black coat. If it sounds like she would be a good fit for your fees are waived for home, come meet her today.

Koda may or may not grow into her ears, but that doesn’t change the fact that she is a sweet and playful Labrador Retriever mix. You will also notice that she is all legs and wiggles. Her legs she will grow into, her wiggles could last a lifetime. She is 10 weeks old and has some more growing to do and would also benefit from some puppy training classes.

diesel
Diesel is on the lookout for someone who will take advantage of the dog training classes that several of the local trainers offer. He’s only 1 year old and wants to be the best big dog in town. He’s a black Labrador Retriever and weighs an impressive 72 lbs. He has been around other dogs, but will need to have a meet with any dogs already in the home. Are you ready to help him live up to his potential?
Beatrix
Beatrix came in with a large group of cats who had been seized by the state. Sometimes cats from these situations are under socialized and it can take time for them to be adoptable. She was one of the ones who was able to move up as soon as there was a spot for her. She is in the Catopia room and is doing great. She does well with other cats and is a sweet 1 year old Domestic Short Hair.

Johnny
Johnny loves his tummy rubs. And hot dogs. And cuddles. It would be really easy to spoil this little 4 year old Jack Russell Terrier and I doubt that he would have a problem with that. He has a tri colored coat and a little nubby tail. He is a shy fellow, but that doesn’t keep him from letting you know how much he likes your attention. He was a stray, so we don’t know if he likes cats.

KANSAS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK
Texas F Bolden plans 2 KU visits By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Kansas University basketball recruiting target Marques Bolden has scheduled two trips to KU. Bolden, a 6-foot-10, 240-pound senior forward from DeSoto (Texas) High who is ranked No. 14 nationally in the Class of 2016 by Rivals. com, will visit officially on Sept. 25-26. He will make an unofficial visit for Late Night in the Phog on Oct. 9. Bolden told Jayhawkslant.com he wants “to get a closer look at Kansas. I talked to coach (Jerrance) Howard and he suggested that I come at a time when there weren’t any other recruits and then I’ll visit for Late Night unofficially when
all the other recruits are on hand as well. “I’m just looking forward to talking to coach (Bill) Self and really just getting a feel for Kansas and everything like that,” Bolden added. “Kansas is a very serious option for me.” He will visit Duke on Sept. 18-19, which follows his recent unofficial trip to Durham, North Carolina. He also is considering Kentucky, Texas, Wake Forest, Louisville, Baylor, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and UCLA. l
Jackson wins slam dunk: KU recruiting target Josh Jackson, a 6-7 senior shooting guard from Prolific Prep in Napa, California, won the Under Armour Elite 24 slam dunk contest Friday on
Pier 2 under the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. Jackson, who is ranked No. 1 in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, defeated future Baylor player Mark Vital (6-5 from Dallas, ranked No. 72) in the finals. Jackson’s winning dunk is available at http://ljw.bz/1JbuHZm Jackson — he recently scored 50 points and grabbed 16 rebounds in the Big Strick Classic in the Big Apple — has visited Maryland and tells Zagsblog.com he wants to visit KU, Arizona and Michigan State. He also has UCLA, UNLV and Villanova on his list. “I’m going to take an official visit to Kansas. I’m just not sure when yet,” he told Zagsblog.com. “It’s more than likely go-
ing to be a late decision (to pick a school).” No. 11-ranked Terrance Ferguson, a 6-6 shooting guard from Tulsa, Oklahoma, who recently committed to Alabama, won the Elite 24 three-point contest. Eudora High junior Mitchell Ballock competed in the event but did not make the finals. He has been offered by KU, Kansas State, Iowa State, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Indiana, UNLV and others. The Under Armour game is set for 6 tonight on ESPNU. Team EZ Pass will consist of DeAndre Ayton, Troy Brown, Hamidou Diallo, Trevon Duval, Ferguson, Dewan Huell, Frank Jackson, Josh Jackson, Justin Jackson, T.J. Leaf, Thon Maker, Seventh Woods.
Team Doo Be Doo: Edrice Adebayo, Rawle Alkins, Jarrett Allen, Udoka Azubuike, Jalek Felton, Markelle Fultz, Wenyen Gabriel, Mario Kegler, Shamorie Ponds, Billy Preston, Kobi Simmons and M.J. Walker. l
Duval excelling: Trevon Duval, a 6-1 junior point guard from St. Benedict’s High School in New Jersey who is ranked No. 5 in the Class of 2017, has been dominating Under Armour Elite 24 practice sessions, Zagsblog. com reports. He is considering KU, Arizona, Indiana, Louisville, UNLV, UCLA, Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina State, St. John’s, Maryland, Cal, Syracuse, Rutgers, Seton Hall and others. Delaware native Duval
KU women home — a lot J-W Staff Reports
Kansas University’s women’s basketball team will play 17 of 29 regularseason games within the friendly confines of Allen Fieldhouse this season. Much to the delight of first-year coach Brandon Schneider. “My first visit to Allen Fieldhouse was in the fall of 1995,” Schneider said during his introductory press conference. “I was a first-year coach, and I called ahead to get permission to come and attend a men’s basketball practice. Before I even stepped on the court, I began to feel it. You know, the goosebumps, the hair on the back of your neck (standing up). There is a wave of something special about this place.” Including two exhibition games — starting with the Nov. 1 meeting with Pittsburg State — KU will play 19 games at AFH. “I’ve always thought that Kansas did a terrific job of putting together a tough nonconference schedule that wasn’t just made up of nine or 10 guarantee games,” Schneider said. “There are other BCS opponents on the schedule and two very good opponents from the Big East. I think that the administration does an awesome job of putting together a schedule that has lot of considerations with RPI and
things that put us in a position to be prepared for not only Big 12 play, but also for consideration for the NCAA Tournament should we have a quality season.” Following a second exhibition Nov. 8 against Emporia State — the school Schneider coached to a national championships in 2010 — the Jayhawks will kick off the regular season Nov. 15 against Texas Southern. Although KU will hit the road for three consecutive games — Nov. 23 at Arizona, and the Nov. 2728 trip to face Cal State Fullerton, then either SMU or Northern Illinois in the SMU Thanksgiving Classic in Dallas — Kansas will play six in a row at Allen before opening the Big 12 season Dec. 30 at Oklahoma. “When we got the schedule we started to see some light at the end of the tunnel and we are getting closer and closer to being able to practice and start preparing for what is going to be a challenging season, both in non-conference and conference action,” said Schneider. “We are very excited and enthusiastic about the upcoming season.” The Jayhawks begin their 2015-16 campaign with Late Night in the Phog, which is hosted along with Kansas men’s basketball, on Oct. 9 at Allen Fieldhouse.

He recently helped Australia’s Under 17 National Team win a silver medal at the FIBA Under 17 World championships. He averaged 18.9 points and 11.6 boards per game. The Wildcats also added 6-4 point guard standout Jamal Murray, the No. 9 rated player in the Class of 2015, this summer.

job since we got him,” center fielder Lorenzo Cain said of the righthander who was acquired from the Cincinnati Reds just before the trading deadline. “Unfortunately, I just speak for myself, I played terribly.” Henry Owens made the longest start of his short career, pitching eight innings of four-hit ball. Blake Swihart had four hits and Mookie Betts three for the Red Sox, who tied a season high with their fourth win in a row. A 23-year-old lefty who is one of Boston’s top pitching prospects, Owens (2-1) was making his fourth career start since being called up from Triple-A Pawtucket on Aug. 4. He pitched well in his first two outings, but gave up seven runs and 10 hits in a loss to Seattle on Sunday. Owens allowed Kansas City one earned run and four hits and a walk, striking out four in eight

innings. The Red Sox got to Cueto for three runs in the second inning, two in the fourth, and two more in the sixth. Josh Rutledge hit a two-run homer for Bos-
ton. Alcides Escobar hit a solo shot for the Royals.
Bad plays Boston led 4-1 in the fourth when Betts lofted a blooper to right-center. Cain ran hard for it, and when he tried to scoop it up on one hop he swatted it away, into right field. Betts took second, and Swihart scored from first. The Royals also made an error in Boston’s threerun second, when Escobar just failed to field a relay throw from the outfield. Hot catcher Swihart, another 23-year-old rookie, had his second career four-hit game, and he was in the middle of all three Boston rallies. He doubled in a run and scored in the second; he singled in a run and scored in the fourth; and he singled to start the sixth-inning rally, scoring on Rutledge’s homer. “He’s a great student of the game,” said Red Sox bench coach Torey Lovullo, who is filling in as manager while John Farrell is being treated for lymphoma. “He pays attention, and we feel like it’s a really good sign of things to come.”
Lincoln, Neb. — Nebraska scored two goals in the opening 14 minutes, and No. 23-ranked Kansas University dropped its soccer season opener, 3-0, Friday at Barbara Hibner Stadium. “We were obviously very slow to get going at the start of the game,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “Our speed of play was way too slow in the first 15 minutes, and we couldn’t get into any kind of rhythm. After the first 20 minutes, though, we settled down and had some opportunities, and (the better play) was all us in the second half. We had eight shots and their keeper had to make some really nice saves. I thought there were some good things that we did, but we need to come out ready to play from the first whistle. We have to learn from today and move forward.” Senior forward Katie Kraeutner scored the Cornhuskers’ first goal in the ninth minute, and four minutes later senior defender Jaylyn Odermann flicked in a header after a well-placed cross found her inside the KU six-yard box. Kansas, allowed multiple goals just three times all of last season. Kansas had outshot the home team 13-7, with six shots for each team going on target. KU will travel to Minnesota on Sunday. Match time is 2 p.m.

protection for Russell Wilson. He finished 9-of15 for 78 yards, most of that coming on three completions to Jimmy Graham. “We’ve got some stuff to clean up,” Carroll said. The play of the game from Seattle’s perspective was Bobby Wagner’s interception, which he returned 25 yards for a touchdown that gave the Seahawks a 10-7 halftime lead. “I just sat back and read his eyes,” said Wagner, who scored his first touchdown since he was a high school tight end. “I’ve never had a pick-six in my life. It felt amazing.” Chase Daniel led the Chiefs (2-0) on an 86-

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP
Fiers fires no-hitter Brewers 10, Nationals 3 Washington — Domingo Santana homered in his Milwaukee debut, and the Brewers took advantage of several defensive miscue. Jonathan Lucroy had three hits and drove in a run, and rookie Jimmy Nelson allowed two runs in 51⁄3 innings against Washington, which fell one game below .500 (6061)
The Associated Press
Interleague Astros 3, Dodgers 0 Houston — Mike Fiers pitched the second no-hitter in the major leagues in nine days, leading Houston over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night. Fiers (6-9) struck out Justin Turner on his 134th pitch to end it and threw his glove high into the air for his first no-hitter and fifth in the big leagues this season. Seattle’s Hisashi Iwakuma tossed a no-hitter on Aug 12. Cole Hamels with Philadelphia, San Francisco’s Chris Heston and Washington’s Max Scherzer also have thrown no-hitters this season. Acquired by the Astros at the trade deadline to help with their playoff push, Fiers has been stellar in his three starts for Houston. This was something else, though. Having never even gotten an out in the ninth inning in his five-year career, Fiers was dominant Friday. He struck out 10 and walked three, retiring the final 21 batters. Nolan Ryan applauded from a suite as Fiers was mobbed by his teammates near the mound after finishing the 11th no-hitter in Astros history. Fiers (1-0) needed little help from his defense until Jake Marisnick had to sprint to catch a long fly ball by Jimmy Rollins just in front of the bullpen in right field for the first out of the ninth inning. Fiers crouched in relief then pointed out to his teammate. The closest the Dodgers came to breaking it up was in the sixth inning, when Turner’s towering shot to left with two outs hooked foul. The 30-year-old righthander allowed a walk in each of the first three innings, but didn’t allow a base-runner after walking Joc Pederson to start the third. It was the first no-hitter by one Astros pitcher since Darryl Kile blanked the Mets on Sept. 8, 1993. Six Houston pitchers combined to throw one against the Yankees on June 11, 2003.

AGENT SPOTLIGHT
What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working?
Realtor
I very much enjoy fishing. A little over a year ago I was fortunate enough to be able to go to Alaska and fish. I caught a 31 lb. halibut!
Denise Breason 785-331-5502 twoneice@aol.com
How long have you worked in Real Estate?
Where did you grow up? I grew up in Eastern Iowa along the Mississippi River. I went back for a family get together last weekend and was reminded of how much I love being close to that awesome river. It brought back a lot of childhood memories. Skiing, fishing and stopping on a sandbar just to enjoy the afternoon sun. What area do you live in now? What do you like most about it? I live west of Lecompton in the country. I felt it was important to raise my sons in the country - investigating the woods and the creeks. I’m fortunate to observe wildlife almost everyday – hen turkey with her 13 babies in my front yard, raccoons on my back porch peering through the patio window at me.
I’ve been in real estate 11 years and still enjoy it as much as I did when I started. What did you do before that? I was in the excavating business. What is your specialty?
What is the most unique property you’ve listed or sold?
I love selling land. Walking a new parcel and seeing its beauty is always exciting for me. I also love working with first time homebuyers.
I find that the property isn’t as unique as some of the sellers. What are the top 3 things that separate you from your competition?
What is the most challenging/gratifying aspect of what you do? Working with first time homebuyers is both challenging and gratifying. Walking them through the process and finally getting them to closing and watching their faces as you hand them the keys to their new home. What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? Too many to mention!
I still love my job after 11 years. I learn something new with each transaction. Real estate is an ongoing learning experience and ever changing. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy or sell a home? Get your real estate information from a professional, not your neighbor, not a relative, not your chiropractor. What do you see in the future for real estate sales/prices? In the near future, I see prices slowly/ steadily going up and staying strong. Why should someone choose you as his or her real estate agent? I will answer your questions honestly and if I don’t know the answer I will find the answer from a reliable source.
