Coroner: Slaying ‘overkill,’ ‘personal’ Hearing in 2014 stabbing of woman, 19, continues today

Judge grants attorney general’s stay request; lawmakers grapple with long-term implications

Witnesses testifying Thursday in a 19-year-old Lawrence man’s preliminary hearing on his charge of first-degree murder recounted the brutal way 19-year-old Justina Altamirano Mosso, of Lawrence, was killed in November. Mosso was discovered dead in a bloody bathroom of an apartment leased by her estranged husband on Nov. 9, 2014, detectives testified Thursday. Prosecutors believe that Rontarus Washington Jr., who lived down the hall from the apartment, killed Mosso, and they charged him in January with the death. Lawrence police officer Robert Egidy said that while responding to missing persons reports for Mosso’s cousin and estranged husband, FeMike Yoder/Journal-World Photo lipe Cantu Ruiz, around 7 p.m., he RONTARUS WASHINGTON listens to proceedings Thursday in Douglas County District found Mosso “obviously dead,” Court.

According to prosecutor C.J. Rieg, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation tested those sandals and found a positive match to Mosso’s DNA.

Topeka — A Shawnee County judge on Thursday granted an emergency stay of an order that threatens to cut off all funding for the entire judicial branch of state government. That order appeared to calm fears, at least for the time being, that the entire state judicial system could be defunded immediately. But officials throughout state government spent much of the day focused on how to keep the court system open in the long run if WednesNuss day’s ruling is upheld. Judge Larry D. Hendricks granted the stay at the request of the Kansas Attorney General’s office, and lawyers on the other side of the case supported that motion. Kansas Chief Justice Lawton Nuss says he plans to monitor developments in a lower court case that threatens to cut off funding for the Kansas judicial system. Please see COURT, page 2A

Court

Kansas Chief Justice Lawton Nuss, speaking with reporters during a rare news conference Thursday, was cautious about responding to questions about the case. “That case is still at the district court level, and it’s been our practice not to comment on cases that are still there because they may eventually come before our court and we want to look at things while they’re here with a fresh eye,” Nuss said. “That said, I’ve also been paying attention to some reports which suggest that the Attorney General and indeed one of the lawyers involved in this case at the district court level have indicated they are going to try to take steps to make sure the courts remain funded,” he continued. “In addition to that, I’m sure my colleagues and I will be discussing that funding issue and developments at the trial court level just to see what our options are.” Nuss had originally set up the news conference to discuss the launch of a new project called e-courts that will eventually allow for electronic filing of all documents, motions and decisions in court cases through a web-based system that will be available to the public. But as it turned out, funding for that project is also threatened by Wednesday’s court ruling. The 2014 bill that included the language on selecting chief judges was part of a supplemental spending bill for the courts that included several other provisions. One of them established the “Electronic Filing and Centralized Case Management Fund” and

Wednesday’s ruling, which sent shock waves throughout the court system, dealt with the relatively obscure issue over how chief judges in district courts are selected. But in a move thought to be unprecedented in the Kansas Legislature, lawmakers this year passed a separate budget bill just for the judicial branch and inserted a “nonseverability” clause that tied back to last year’s change in the selection process of chief judges. That meant that if the new law on selecting chief judges was overturned, as it was Wednesday, all funding for the court system would be cut off. The law was challenged by another judge, Larry T. Solomon, chief judge of the 30th Judicial District, who said it violated the separation of powers doctrine as well as Article 3 of the Kansas Constitution, which says, “The supreme court shall have general administrative authority over all courts in this state.” Solomon’s attorneys said Thursday that they would file a separate action seeking to overturn the 2015 nonseverability clause, which was not addressed in Wednesday’s decision. “We have never seen a law like this before and it is imperative that we stop it before it throws the state into a constitutional crisis,” said Matthew Menendez of the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University, who served as co-counsel on the case.

of her hands. One wound appeared to have run completely through both sides of her palm. Mitchell described the nature of the stabbings as “personal” and “overkill.” “When stabbing someone, it’s extremely personal as you’re in their personal space,” Mitchell said. “You have to overcome internal (mental) barriers, and it builds up psychological intensity.” Mitchell said that a person could be driven to commit these “personal” acts by “anger, despair, financial, psychological or sexual” reasons. Mitchell said the nature of the wounds could also be indicative of the assailant simply wanting to ensure the victim was dead. “Cases of overkill often have a sexual component, but (that) not necessarily (mean) that there’s been a sexual relationship (between victim and assailant) in the past,” Mitchell said. “It could be only the emotions and feelings of the assailant.” There were also blows to Mosso’s head, Mitchell testified. He said that white ceramic-type bits were found on Mosso and in her hair. He testified that he thought the fragments could be consistent with the broken toilet-seat lid found in the bathroom. Lawrence police officer Samuel Hiatt testified Thursday that he first encountered Washington on Nov. 9 during a canvass of

the apartment complex. Washington said he didn’t know the occupants of the apartment in question, but said he’d seen Ruiz a number of times — including once when Ruiz allegedly displayed a knife. Ruiz also was interviewed Nov. 9, Detective Sam Harvey testified. Harvey said Ruiz told him that Ruiz and Mosso argued the day Mosso died and she’d demanded Ruiz’s car keys because “he owed her money.” He gave them to her, then left for Manhattan. Harvey said that Ruiz claimed he’d never struck Mosso, but that she had hit him before. Ruiz told detectives that he and Mosso had recently separated after he learned that Mosso was allegedly seeing another man, and Mosso moved into her cousin’s apartment, Harvey said. Harvey testified that Washington was interviewed several times after his initial Nov. 9 interview. Washington told investigators by about the third interview that he had seen Ruiz and Mosso arguing on Nov. 7 — the day Mosso is believed to have died — in the apartment’s parking lot, Harvey said. Washington told police Ruiz left in a truck with a man after the argument and Mosso remained in the parking lot talking on a phone. During a subsequent interview, Washington told detectives that some time after seeing the argument, he walked downstairs and waited for an acquaintance to pick him up, Harvey said.

authorized the use of $3.1 million a year from docket fees to fund the project. But that bill also included a nonseverability clause that said if any part of the bill was declared invalid, all other provisions would be invalid as well. As the judicial committee working on that project got together for its first meeting Thursday, Justice Dan Biles quipped about whether or not funding for the project would still be available. “I guess we’ll find out whether that’s true over the next few days,” he said. Wednesday’s ruling dealt only with that 2014 appropriations bill. Judge Hendricks specifically did not address the 2015 funding bill that tied back to last year’s bill, saying that because this year’s bill “exceeds the scope of this Memorandum Decision and Order, the Court declines to address it.” Hendricks did, however, finish with a general observation about how the legislative, executive and judicial departments of government are often referred to as “branches.” “But what is all too frequently lost in the metaphor, without going too far out on a limb, is that branches must, ultimately, remain connected with one another on some level in order to survive and thrive,” Hendricks wrote. “A sundered branch is a dead branch, lifeless and ineffective. In the view of this Court, our state Constitution is not so inflexible — or so wooden.” — Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

Gonsher confirmed what nearly everyone else in the commercial real estate market has been telling me: south Iowa Street is getting a lot of interest from companies looking to locate in Lawrence right now. “It is clearly where all the nationals want to be,” Gonsher said. “It is a ton of traffic and great visibility. It is clearly the dominant retail corridor in the market, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.” As for the chicken explosion on south Iowa Street, let me bring you up to speed. Buffalo Wild Wings already has opened near 27th and Iowa. Raising Cane’s, a chicken finger restaurant, is slated for a spot at 2435 Iowa St. in the location that used to house Emprise Bank in front of Bigg’s BBQ. Then there is Chick-filA. That restaurant opened Wednesday at its 27th and Iowa location in front of Dick’s Sporting Goods. In case you are wondering, people indeed did camp out in the restaurant’s parking lot to be among the first 100 people in line when the store opened this morning. The first 100 received a voucher for one free Chick-fil-A meal per week for a year. — This is an excerpt from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column, which appears each weekday at LJWorld.com.

After six years, admirers of cowboy culture have reason to dust off their spurs and squeeze into their chaps once again. Ottawa’s Old West Cowboy Days event is back this weekend after a long break. Peach Madl, the event’s organizer and a Lawrence businesswoman, said the event used to be huge and very expensive. When it lost its major sponsor, organizers didn’t want a smaller setup to be disappointing, so it has stayed on the back burner — until this Saturday. “What we used to do was so incredibly crazy and wonderful that we thought we’d get the ball rolling in remembering

He said there would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;bloody riotsâ&#x20AC;? in Leavenworth the first time someone died in a terrorist attack in the community.

Friday, September 4, 2015 were of its review of the two facilities or whether it intends to pursue plans to close the Guantanamo prison. Language in the Defense Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current appropriations bill prohibits closing the prison or moving the detainees without congressional approval, and Republican leaders in Congress have indicated they intend to keep that prohibition in place. One young woman who said she was a student at Leavenworth High School said she was concerned that some prisoners were being held without charges or trials, and she asked what the alternative was if they were not transferred from the prison. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Or do we plan to keep them in Guantanamo Bay and call it a death penalty?â&#x20AC;? she asked. Brownback responded by saying the War on Terror, as it was called during the Bush administration, is different from other wars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before, it was always country-to-country, and at some point in time there is a stop, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an exchange of enemy combatants,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got in this situation.

Boyfriend’s past shouldn’t affect the future Dear Annie: I’ve been in a relationship for five years with a guy who has been very enjoyable company. However, in the past 18 months, rumors have surfaced about him being bisexual. He never told me about this. Finally, I confronted him, and he admitted this was just a whim at a time in his life when he was alone. He’s been divorced for 43 years and claims he never knew why his wife divorced him. He now feels that, since he is with me and the past desires are no longer there, I should just forget about my disgusted feelings and go on as if nothing was ever said. His friends kept dropping these hints, but I ignored them until now. I don’t know if I should continue this

‘Hand of God’ not bingeworthy Sometimes the dramas that take themselves most seriously become unintentionally hilarious. You’d be pretty callous to search for humor in Amazon Prime’s new drama “Hand of God,” but it keeps showing up. The series can be streamed in its entirety beginning today. Judge and civic heavyweight Pernell Harris (Ron Perlman) is first seen speaking in tongues and frolicking in a public fountain. He’s clearly had a breakdown. We later learn that his daughterin-law had been gruesomely raped while Pernell’s son was forced to watch, a trauma that inspired him to put a bullet in his brain. So, when Pernell is brought to the hospital for observation, his comatose son is right down the hall, lingering in a vegetative state. If this sounds too grim for you, believe me, “Hand of God” is just warming up. Apparently, while missing for three days (symbolism alert), Pernell had some kind of religious conversion at the hands of Rev. Paul Curtis (Julian Morris), the kind of minister who thinks nothing of beguiling a $50,000 donation out of a grieving father. This expensive act of charity, the three days’ absence and the incident in the fountain gets the attention of Pernell’s wife, Crystal (Dana Delany), who sashays down to the hospital in a leather miniskirt to visit her brain-dead son and deranged husband. Not unlike her neurosurgeon character on “Body of Proof,” Delany’s Crystal is always dressed to the nines, no matter the location or occasion. And on “Hand of God,” she’s frequently smoking a joint. Fashion-plate Crystal shares zero chemistry with Pernell and frequently seems like she walked in from another drama entirely. And that helps tip this enterprise from tragedy to farce. The real question is why anybody would watch, never mind binge, on a series as odd and unpleasant as “Hand of God.” Do you stick around for the story? Or the laughs?

“American Masters” (8 p.m., PBS) profiles Althea Gibson, a sharecropper’s daughter from Harlem who became the first African-American to play and win at Wimbledon. Contributors include her fellow Wimbledon tennis champions Dick Savitt and Billie Jean King.

You said this isn’t uncommon and to ask him to spend 15 minutes a day looking into each other’s eyes and listening to one another. Your advice was a bit too soft for this guy. His obsession is one of the shallowest things I’ve heard in a long time. He sounds like someone who needs to get a life. This behavior needs to be stopped cold turkey. It’s like an addiction. It makes a poor substitute for the real things in life. Devoting so much of his time to celebrity gossip is a sign that something’s missing. This man may need help. — Regular

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, Sept. 4: This year you are living under a lucky star. If you can think of a well-founded desire, you can make it happen. Cut out any negativity. If you are single, you will have many admirers and may be hardpressed to maintain that status. If you are attached, the two of you become more playful than you have been in a long time. 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) You might have awaken in a glum mood, but your bounce will quickly return. Tonight: Let it all hang out. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Your generosity becomes evident the more you look at the coming weekend. Tonight: Remain sensitive to others. Gemini (May 21-June 20) The reason you perk up today won’t be as important as the fact that you have returned to being the whimsical person others enjoy being around. Tonight: Lead others into the weekend. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You have pushed yourself so hard trying to get so much done that you could be overtired and a bit withdrawn. Tonight: An early bedtime. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Friends, loved ones and last-minute calls swirl around you. Your activities should include

Person in Phoenix Dear Phoenix: We agree that a fixation on celebrities is shallow, but have you looked at your TV, computer and newspaper lately? We are bombarded daily with celebrity news, updates, babies, divorces, clothes — there’s no escape from it unless you live in a cave. This is a mild addiction (and we suspect most women whose husbands are addicted to golf or fishing would swap in a heartbeat). If her husband can spend at least 15 minutes a day connecting with his wife, it will help enormously. If he cannot, counseling is always useful, but he must be willing to go. — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

EDITORIALS

Solid scores Despite ongoing concerns about state funding, Kansas schools must be doing something right.

or years, one of the most emotionally debated issues in the Kansas Legislature has been how to determine the correct formula or equation for funding the state’s K-12 public schools — where to find the money to pay the bills. During these debates, whether the governor is a Republican or Democrat, there are predictable warnings about how inadequate funding will shortchange students, compromise their education and eventually hurt the state. Also, less-than-ideal funding, according to some, is likely to cause many families to decide not to move to Kansas because of its inferior public school system. It is interesting to note that the Kansas Department of Education reported recently that Kansas high school students had scored better than their peers across the country on the ACT college entrance exam. The report added that a higher percentage of Kansas students appear ready for college courses. The report noted 32 percent of the 2015 Kansas high school graduates taking the test had met all benchmarks for college readiness, up from 28 percent for 2011 Kansas graduates and higher than the national figure of 28 percent for 2015. Apparently, Kansas high school students are doing well despite the doomsayers’ predictions of dire consequences from the state’s K-12 funding. The higher-than-average ACT scores also send an important message relative to the excellence of Kansas teachers and their commitment to their students. Increased funding for K-12 schools and higher education would be welcome, but less-than-ideal funding does not necessarily signal that a governor or legislators do not support education or that the performance and achievement of students will be compromised. The results noted above are great, and students are to be commended. A nagging question: If more funding were to be made available, would it be best to direct those dollars to programs that help underachievers, average students, honor students or teacher salaries? And would added funding result in higher ACT scores?

Democrats still lashed to Clinton Washington — Unless she’s indicted, Hillary Clinton will win the Democratic nomination. That kind of sentence is rarely written about a major presidential candidate. But I don’t see a realistic third alternative (except for one long-shot, below). Clinton is now hostage to the various investigations — the FBI, Congress, the courts — of her emails. The issue has already damaged her seriously by highlighting once again her congenital inability to speak truthfully. When the scandal broke in March, she said unequivocally that she “did not email any classified material to anyone.”

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

We are unlikely to get a straight answer from Clinton. In fact, we may never get the real answer. So Clinton marches on regardless. Who is to stop her?” That’s now been shown to be unequivocally false. After all, the inspector general of the intelligence community referred her emails to the Justice Department precisely because they contain classified material. The fallback — every Clinton defense has a fallback — is that she did not mishandle any material “marked” classified. But that’s absurd. Who could even have been in a position to mark classified something she composed and sent on her own private email system? Moreover, what’s prohibited is mishandling classified information not just documents. For example, any information learned from confidential conversations with foreign leaders is automatically classified. Everyone in national security knows that. Reuters has already found 17

emails sent by Clinton containing such “born classified” information. And the State Department has already identified 188 emails on her server that contain classified information. The truth-shaving never stops. Take a minor matter: her communications with Sidney Blumenthal. She originally insisted that these were just “unsolicited” emails from an old friend. Last Monday’s document release showed that they were very much solicited (“Keep ‘em coming when you can”) and in large volume — 306 emails, according to The New York Times’ Peter Baker, more than with any other person, apparently, outside the State Department. The parallel scandal looming over Clinton is possible corruption involving contributions to the Clinton Foundation while she was secretary of state. There are relatively few references to the foundation in the emails she has released. Remember, she erased 32,000 emails she deemed not “work-related.” Clinton needs to be asked a straightforward question: “In sorting your private from public emails, were those related to the Clinton Foundation considered work-related or were they considered private and thus deleted?” We are unlikely to get a straight answer from Clin-

ton. In fact, we may never get the real answer. So Clinton marches on regardless. Who is to stop her? Yes, Bernie Sanders has risen impressively. But it is inconceivable that he would be nominated. For one thing, he’d be the oldest president by far — on Inauguration Day older than Ronald Reagan, our oldest president, was at his second inaugural. And there is the matter of Sanders being a self-proclaimed socialist in a country more allergic to socialism than any in the Western world. Which is why the party is turning its lonely eyes to joltin’ Joe Biden. Biden, who at 72 shares the Democrats’ gerontocracy problem, is riding a wave of deserved sympathy. But that melts away quickly when a campaign starts. Even now, his support stands at only 18 percent in the latest Quinnipiac poll. For him to win, one has to assume that Sanders disappears and Biden automatically inherits Sanders’ constituency. That’s a fantasy, modeled on 1968 when Bobby Kennedy picked up Eugene McCarthy’s anti-Lyndon Johnson constituency. But Joe Biden is no Bobby Kennedy. And in a recent Iowa poll, Biden’s support comes roughly equally from Clinton and Sanders. Rather than inheriting the anti-

Clintonite constituency, he could instead be splitting it. There is one long-shot possibility that might upend Clinton: Biden pledges to serve one term only and chooses Elizabeth Warren as his running mate — now. One term pledges address the age problem but they are political poison, giving the impression of impermanence and mere transition. Warren cures that, offering the Democratic base — and the Sanders constituency — the vision of a 12-year liberal ascendancy. When asked on Wednesday whether she had discussed such a ticket with Biden, Warren answered “it was a long conversation,” a knowing wink in the form of a provocative nondenial. I doubt a Biden-Warren ticket will happen, but it remains the only threat to Clinton outside of some Justice Department prosecutor showing the same zeal in going after Hillary Clinton as the administration did in going after David Petraeus. Otherwise the Democrats remain lashed to Clinton. Their only hope is that the Republicans self-destruct in a blaze of intraparty warfare. Something for which they are showing an impressive talent. — Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

University leaders see challenges ahead By Gene Budig and Alan Heaps

It will involve the emotional and loud voices of activist faculty and concerned students, perhaps as never heard before. They foresee a tortuous and razorthin presidential election in 2016, one that will see escalating intensity among the campus combatants. The university presidents, contacted over the past two weeks, said they anticipate record heights of participation in student government and in campus political organizations, caused by the unquestioned importance of America’s future direction and questions surrounding topics like soaring costs of a college education and the record number of graduates who leave academia buried in hopeless loan debt. There is no anticipation of states coming to any immediate rescue with added funding for public colleges and universities; most expect more of the same, continued over reliance on higher tuition and fees. Most administrators admit to the importance of maintaining undergraduate enrollments, or growing them slightly, while favoring increases in graduate attendees, especially from out of state locations. These students pay much higher tuition and fees, often two to two and a half times more,

than state residents. This explains why state universities are working to enroll more able international students who often live in campus housing. It makes economic sense, and pragmatic state leg- Budig islators applaud the logic in these especially tough economic times. It should be stressed that a majority of international students have a record of staying as long as it takes to graduate Heaps since many enjoy financial support from their home countries. American businesses have a keen interest in them, too, since the economy is truly global. All of the participants expect interest in schools of business to continue to move upward, with many major universities, like Kansas University, building massive new business school buildings, many funded by private sources. By the same token, the chief executives are distressed with the slippage in interest in the arts and sciences. All of them expressed unquestioned support for the humanities and the fine arts. Faculty share that troubled outlook and believe a college degree rings hollow without a reasonable dose of these historically valued classroom experiences. Several of the presidents ques-

tioned, for the first time, how much longer there will be such high interest in schools of business and industry. There was also some question about future enrollments in schools of medicine, nursing and engineering. There is no doubt that the role and treatment of women on campuses, once again, will rise to the top of the institutional consciousness as it did in the 2014-15 academic year. And it should, especially at a time when the crisis has captured a national media audience and when more than half of the students at these 12 universities are female and the figure is growing. Parents are rightfully queasy over the issue. The chief executives expect heightened focus on the role of bigtime athletics as costs soar and income becomes static. But there are new concerns with the likely threat of diminished attendance at football and basketball games. The threat of overreliance on television revenues is real for presidents and athletic directors. Many in the media are hinting at diminished returns in the not-too-distant future, leaving the colleges and universities with massive bonding debt and few plausible answers. To say the horse is out of the barn when it comes to college athletics is a vast and deeply concerning understatement. — Gene Budig is the past president/chancellor of three large state universities, including Kansas University, and of Major League Baseball’s American League. Alan Heaps was a vice president at the College Board in New York City.

Former Lawrence City Commissioner Terry Riordan has confirmed he plans to apply for the seat left open by Jeremy Farmer’s July resignation from the commission. Thus far, Riordan is the first person to publicly announce an interest in the vacant seat. The deadline for applying to the city is 5 p.m. Wednesday. City Attorney Toni Wheeler said the city hasn’t yet received any applications for the position. Riordan said he plans to submit his official paperwork early next week. Riordan Riordan, a longtime Lawrence physician, served two years on the commission but lost his bid for re-election in April. Riordan finished fourth in the voting, with the top three vote-winners receiving seats on the commission. Riordan said the fact that he was next in line for the voting should serve as an indication that he has significant support from the community. “Over 4,000 people did vote for me,” Riordan said. “It is not like I just got a few votes. I think it is logical to go to the next person.” Riordan said his experience on the commission also should be a factor for the City Commission to consider in the appointment process. “I’ve had people from all walks of life encourage me to do it,” Riordan said. “I think the city needs someone who has been vetted, someone who has experience.”

its third and final meeting on Sept. 29, city attorney Toni Wheeler said. The application deadline for the position is 5 p.m. Sept. 9. Although no applications have yet been submitted, Committee Member Dennis Constance advised other members to prepare for a last-minute influx of candidates. During Thursday’s meeting, committee members introduced themselves to one another and listened to Wheeler give an overview of how the group must conduct its meetings via the Kansas Open Records Act. Committee members then discussed how they plan to proceed with their next two meetings and narrowing down the field of applicants. On Sept. 10, committee members will receive all applications submitted, Wheeler said. Those applications and letters of reference also will be published on the city’s website. Committee members Brenda Nunez and Mark Preut said they would be looking for a number of different qualities from each applicant. First and foremost, those who wish to serve as a city commissioner must be familiar with Lawrence, they said. “They need to care about Lawrence and the residents of Lawrence,” Nunez said. “They should have some experience in leadership, understand budgeting, understand business and community organizations,” Preut said. “Someone who can build a consensus.” Committee members then will have until their second meeting on Sept. 17 to review the applications in comparison to criteria set forth by city commissioners, Wheeler said. During that second meeting, the group will narrow the field down to as many as 12 semifinalists. At one point in the meeting, the committee spoke about disclosing any interactions with applicants and keeping professional

distance from applicants in order to remain impartial, which is not an easy task in Lawrence, they agreed. “It’s been difficult — you see a friend or a neighborhood leader who said, ‘I’m going to do this,’ and I don’t even hit ‘like’ on Facebook,” Committee Member Melinda Toumi said. Semifinalists will be invited to address the committee during its third meeting and speak to citizens at a public forum, which will take place Sept. 24 and be moderated by the Voter Education Coalition, Wheeler said. Committee members agreed that not only should they be able to ask candidates questions, but the VEC should also accept questions from members of the public. Wheeler said a questionsubmission process has yet to be determined and more information likely will be available during the Sept. 17 meeting. After candidates have been given a chance to make an address and an-

swer any questions presented to them, the committee will select up to six finalists before the meeting is adjourned. “This will be a public meeting,” Wheeler said. “Anyone who wants to stay and listen can stay and listen, including the candidates.” The names of the six finalists will be presented to city commissioners in no particular order during their normal meeting on Sept. 29, Wheeler said. Commissioners then will decide whom they would like to interview. Interview candidates might be one or all of the six finalists or another candidate entirely. On Oct. 1, city commissioners will hold a special meeting to interview their selected candidates, Wheeler said. They will make a final decision and elect the new city commissioner during their normal meeting Oct. 6. — Reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at cswanson@ljworld.com or 832-7144.

Anthrax brings freeze order at biolabs Officials uncover pathogen safety issues at 9 facilities Tom Vanden Brook and Alison Young USA TODAY

The discovery of live anthrax outside a containment area at a military lab in Utah prompted military officials to order an immediate freeze on operations at nine biodefense laboratories that work with dangerous viruses, tox-

ins and bacteria, the Pentagon announced Thursday. The moratorium, first reported by USA TODAY, came after officials took a detailed look at policies and procedures at the labs and found them wanting, according to Defense officials. An ongoing USA TODAY Media Network investigation has revealed numerous safety problems at public and private research facilities that operate in the secretive world of biodefense research. Army Secretary John McHugh ordered the moratorium on the laboratories, including facilities run by the Army, Air Force and

Navy. The Army is the top agency for the labs. McHugh acted out of an abundance of caution, according to the Army. He will have the authority to approve work if needed for national security. McHugh issued his order for the sweeping safety review after lab regulators from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ordered Dugway Proving Ground’s labs on Aug. 31 to suspend work with all “select agent” pathogens because of new revelations about sloppy biosafety practices at the Utah facility. Dugway officials, in testing surfaces in their laboratories, detect-

ed anthrax bacteria on the floors of two rooms where staff had worked with the deadly pathogen. “If proper biosafety procedures had been followed, these surfaces should have been free of the agent,” the CDC said in a statement in response to questions from USA TODAY. “Following the suspension, the Department of Defense has begun an immediate safety review at all DoD labs and facilities involved in production, shipment and handling of live and inactivated select agents and toxins.” The CDC said there is “no identifiable risk to the public” from the Dugway incident.

According to a memo issued Wednesday by McHugh, the safety review involves all labs involved in the production, shipment and handling of any live or inactivated pathogens that are designated as “select agents,” because of their potential to be used as bioterror agents and the threat they pose to public health. The review calls for the military labs to ensure that personnel are properly trained on lab safety procedures and that necessary maintenance is conducted on biosafety level 3 lab facilities that work with some of the most dangerous pathogens.

Despite all of his glaring missteps, NFL commissioner isn’t going anywhere Roger Goodell has more job security than someone inheriting the family business. Seriously. The guy has botched every significant discipline decision he’s made, the last one so badly it was out and out ridiculed by a federal judge. Even his former boss has said he’s gone too far. NFL players can’t stand him, and Goodell probably shouldn’t waste his time waiting for an invite the next time his (former?) BFF throws a pre-AFC Championship party. And yet, he still has a job.

Goodell has made the owners an obscene amount of money. ... There’s no way they abandon the gravy train.

People in the real world have gotten fired for far less so what, exactly, would it take for Goodell to get the heave-ho? Sorry to disappoint the players union and just about every NFL fan, but unless Goodell announces he was the league consultant on Concussion or schedules the next owners meeting at a Red Roof Inn, he’s not going anywhere. Period. End of discussion. You can make all the arguments you want for why NFL v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Donald Trump said Thursday he signed a pledge promising to back the Republican presidential nominee if it is not him, an action that presumably rules out a potential third-party bid. “I have no intention of changing my mind,” Trump said in the lobby of his corporate tower in New York City. “I see no circumstances under which I would tear up that pledge.” The front-running billionaire made the non-binding declaration after meeting Thursday with Republican Party chairman Reince Priebus, who urged all the party’s presidential candidates to sign a formal loyalty pledge. In a written statement, Trump called it “my great honor to pledge my total support and loyalty to the Republican Party and the conservative principles for which it stands. This is far and away the best way to secure victory against the Democrats in November 2016.” The businessman predicted he would win the Republican nomination, saying, “I am leading in all local and national polls — my whole life has been about winning.” Trump’s son Eric tweeted a photo of his father holding a copy of the signed pledge (which Trump or someone else dated incorrectly, writing “August” rather than September). The campaign later distributed a photo of the pledge with the correct month. Signing the pledge removes a potential ballot obstacle for Trump. Republicans in South Carolina and other states require candidates to agree to back the GOP nominee before obtaining spots on their primary ballots. Republicans were concerned a third-party bid by Trump would siphon votes.

Clinton taking a new approach to women’s issues in 2016 Unlike ’08, won’t be separate policy plank Heidi Przybyla USA TODAY

Hillary Clinton plans to launch a new initiative this weekend as she seeks to weave women’s issues into every facet of her campaign instead of using them in a separate silo as she did in her unsuccessful 2008 presidential bid On Saturday, the Democratic front-runner will launch “Women for Hillary” with a two-week effort to enlist the support of

female voters that will include house parties, organizing events and trips by the candidate and her surrogates to early voting states, campaign officials told USA TODAY. She’s also aiming to make a personal connection with women by using a marketing campaign that will offer regular subscriptions for home deliveries of some of Clinton’s favorite household items and branded products, according to Jesse Ferguson, the campaign’s spokesman. Clinton is also hoping to shift attention away from a crush of stories about her use of a private email server during her tenure as

ence on Women in Beijing, in which she proclaimed “women’s rights are human rights.” Just as that address “pushed the envelope” to elevate women’s issues globally, her 2016 campaign is “being more intentionally overt about these issues,” said Lissa Muscatine, Clinton’s chief speechwriter at the time. Clinton will make expanding paid leave for new mothers part of her economic platform by emphasizing its cost to families. And she’ll carry over the global women’s agenda she began at the State Department to incorporate women’s rights into her foreign policy.

My cousin is on migrants’ perilous path Riham Kusa Special for USA TODAY

BERLIN WhatsApp signals a message on my mobile phone. “Take care of my son,” my aunt writes from Syria. “He is now heading to Turkey and soon will be with you.” Like me, my 17-year-old cousin is used to being uprooted. He’s a Palestinian refugee, and a resident of Syria. Because he doesn’t hold a Syrian passport, he can’t simply visit Lebanon and take a plane from Beirut to Istanbul. So he and thousands of others like him regularly embark on buses that make the wearying, daylong journey from Damascus across war-torn northern Syrian to the porous Turkish border. In Aleppo, my cousin phoned his mother. He’d passed through Islamic State and Syrian government checkpoints and was heading to Izmir in Turkey to find a smuggler to take him to Europe. His father had given him all of the family’s savings. The Syrian civil war destroyed their home. Their eldest son is their ticket to salvation. Under German asylum laws, he can bring others in his family into the country until he turns 18. That happens soon, in December. I look for the phone numbers of smugglers in Hungary, a rela-

tively easy gateway to Germany. It’s not hard to find them, but they are cautious. They will ask where you are staying in Hungary. Then you send them your GPS location. If you convince them you’re legitimate, they’ll quote you a price. Otherwise, they stop answering your calls. Then the news breaks: Around 70 migrants have been found dead in the back of a truck in Austria. Everyone here and at home — Syrians, Germans — exchange hypotheses. References to a puddle of blood under the truck leads some to conclude the migrants fell victim to Mafiosi trafficking in human organs. The migrants were stacked like meat in a freezer. Did they scream for help? How hard did they kick the truck’s locked door? Surely they could have broken out. But they didn’t. They preferred to wait, futilely, for the driver to release them. He didn't. I keep thinking about a 1963 short story, Three Men in The Sun by Palestinian writer Ghassan Kanafani. In the story, three Palestinian guys attempt to migrate from Jordan to Kuwait to find work as laborers in the oil fields. To get through the Iraqi desert, they stow away in the empty tank of a water truck. Under the sweltering July sun, the truck driver says he must close the tank hatch for five minutes as he passes through a border checkpoint. But a bored, fat border guard keeps talking and talking. Finally, when the driver cross-

es the border, he pulls over and opens the hatch as soon as it’s safe. The three men inside are dead. The driver calls them over and over again. In response, he hears only the echo of his voice on the tank’s metal walls. He jumps into the tank, finding the dead men’s clothes wet with perspiration. Frightened, he pulls the bodies out of the tank, throwing them to the side of the

road. But he remembers to take the money out of their pockets. As he drives away, he keeps asking himself, “Why didn’t they knock on the walls of the tank? Why didn’t they knock on the walls of the tank?” Fiction is helping me deal with reality. Like every other Middle Eastern expatriate in Europe, I have personal stories about such horrors. I’ve heard of smugglers packing migrants so tightly into trucks that nobody can move. A friend from Syria who came to Germany in a truck said he asked a guy next to him to turn on his mobile phone light so he could tell the time on his wristwatch. The man couldn’t reach his phone in his pocket. Is my cousin in the same predicament? My friends in Greece also trying to get to Berlin? Are they OK? I can only pray they are. What most haunts me most, however, what makes me feel like the truck driver in the short story, is the death of my friend’s little sister. She was an architecture student and a beautiful singer. She drowned in the Mediterranean Sea with 200 other people when their boat sank on its way to Italy last year. I used to hear her practicing when I visited my friend’s house in Damascus. Her name was Maysoun. I still hear her voice. Kusa is a Palestinian-Syrian journalist living in Berlin.

Goodell’s style is what NFL owners want v CONTINUED FROM 1B

owners ought to dump Goodell — and there are plenty — but there are 10 billion reasons why they won’t dream of it. Or 1.4 billion, take your pick. Those numbers, of course, refer to the NFL’s estimated revenues last season and the sale price of the Buffalo Bills last year. Goodell has made the owners an obscene amount of money during his time as commissioner, and there’s no way they abandon the gravy train simply because they’re going through an extended run of bad PR. Don’t forget, too, that Goodell’s dictatorial style is exactly what the owners want. Every other major sports league allows for independent arbitration when players appeal punishments related to off-thefield conduct. Players may still wind up being unhappy with the final results, but the system gives everyone a feeling that they’ve had a fair shake. That’s not the case in the NFL, where Goodell is the judge, jury and executioner. It’s a system that’s inherently flawed, even when Goodell is right. Instead of actual justice, or even punishments that have some meaning, it leads to protracted and bruising legal battles that wind up overshadowing the original issue. Take Deflategate. I still believe the New England Patriots were

PROSECUTOR TO SEEK DEATH PENALTY FOR DYLANN ROOF

A South Carolina prosecutor said Thursday she will seek the death penalty for the man accused of killing nine black churchgoers in a June shooting rampage. "This was the ultimate crime, and justice in our state calls for the ultimate punishment," Charleston Solicitor Scarlett Wilson said at a brief news conference. Dylann Roof, 21, is charged in state court with nine counts of murder for the attack at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston. The victims had gathered for an evening Bible study, and Roof joined them for several minutes before he drew a gun and began shooting. Survivors told police that Roof, who is white, shouted racist epithets during the massacre. Roof reportedly told at least one survivor that she was letting her live so she could tell others what happened. — John Bacon GUATEMALA LEADER RESIGNS AMID CORRUPTION PROBE

while collaborating on a disciplinary process that’s both effective and reasonable. “It’s important to the ownership,” Goodell said when asked at last month’s owners meeting if keeping final say on disciplinary matters was important to him. “The authority of the commissioner is to protect the integrity of the game and in particular the personal conduct policy outside of that. That’s my job, it’s my responsibility. I take it seriously, the ownership knows that. “There’s been no discussion of changing that,” he added. “The ownership has no inclination.” So there you have it. Goodell takes the hits so the owners don’t have to. He is, in the words of Cris Carter, their Fall Guy. And before you get too indignant on the union and players’ behalf, remember that they agreed to this. The commissioner’s power was at issue when the current collective bargaining agreement was being negotiated in 2011, with numerous players expressing concern about Goodell’s reach. But when it became a choice of sacrificing their paychecks or their principles, the players almost unanimously chose the latter, with only the Pittsburgh Steelers voting against the CBA. It’s a bad setup, and everyone can forget about it getting any better because Goodell isn’t going anywhere.

NATION/WORLD KENTUCKY OFFICIALS WILLING TO ISSUE MARRIAGE LICENSES Mike Wynn and Chris Kenning

The (Louisville, Ky.) Courier-Journal ASHLAND, KY.

Five of six deputies in the office of a Kentucky county clerk found in contempt of court agreed to process paperwork for gay couples who want to wed, starting Friday. Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis refused to issue marriage licenses despite a Supreme Court decision in favor of gay marriage. U.S. District Court Judge David Bunning placed Davis in the custody of U.S. marshals. Davis said through her lawyers that she would not authorize any of her employees to issue licenses in her absence. The holdout among her deputies was Davis’ son, Nathan, who works in his mother’s office. The other deputy clerks had reservations, some based on religion, like Davis’ objections, others about

convicts me and conflicts with my duties.” As word of Davis’ arrest spread among a crowd of more than 100 protesters outside the courthouse, cheers and chants erupted. “I’m glad the court sent a strong message that you have to follow the law,” said Timothy Love of Kentucky, one of the plaintiffs in the Supreme Court case that legalized gay marriage. Those supporting Davis decried the decision, One man fell on the courthouse steps to pray. “It’s very unjust,” said the Rev. Randy Smith of Morehead, Ky., where Davis’ office is located. “Religious liberty has been trampled on today.” Inside the courtroom, lawyers with the Orlando-based Liberty Counsel, which represents Davis, argued that she met a legal test for protection under federal law because her convictions created a “factual inability” to issue licenses to same-sex couples.

their legal authority to sign off on forms without Davis’ consent. Attorneys questioned whether any licenses issued in Davis’ absence would be legal. Bunning said couples would have to decide whether to take that risk. He indicated that he would lift the contempt charge against Davis if deputies issued marriage licenses. Allowing Davis, who has said she is an Apostolic Christian, to defy a court order could create a ripple effect among other county clerks, he said. Two other clerks in the state stopped issuing marriage licenses but have not had lawsuits filed against them. “Her good-faith belief is simply not a viable defense,” Bunning said. “Oaths mean things.” He said he also has deeply held religious beliefs. Davis, who was tearful at times, testified that she could not obey Bunning’s order because God’s law trumps the court. “My conscience will not allow it,” Davis said. “God’s moral law

Lawyers for the couples repeatedly pressed Davis to admit her policy is the result of a personal choice. Bunning agreed and said fines for Davis, who makes $80,000 a year, would not be enough to ensure she would follow his orders. He raised concerns that supporters, who she said are raising money for her, would pay any fine he levied against her, hampering its force. “I don’t do this lightly,” he said. “It’s necessary in this case.” Chris Hartman, head of the Fairness Campaign advocacy group, said he thought the judge would levy fines but hoped that jailing Davis would act as a strong deterrent for others who might refuse to follow the law. Ashley Hogue, a secretary from Ashland, held a sign outside the courthouse that read, “Kim Davis does not speak for my religious beliefs.” “This is so ugly,” she said, wiping away tears. “I was unprepared for all the hate.”

WASHINGTON Law enforcement’s initial response to last year’s explosion of civil unrest in Ferguson, Mo., was plagued by a lack of leadership, a pre-existing broken relationship with the community and myriad tactical errors that only “inflamed tensions,” a Justice Department review released Thursday concluded. The review, which focused on the actions of the Ferguson Police Department, St. Louis County Police Department, St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department and the Missouri Highway Patrol, offered a deeply critical account of a largely “uncoordinated and incomplete” effort to establish control during the turbulent first 17 days after black teenager Michael Brown was fatally shot by white Ferguson officer Darren Wilson. Ferguson police were singled out for the harshest assessment. Federal officials concluded that the agency “had no agency-wide efforts in place to manage the community reaction.” “In addition, the fact that longterm relationships with the community were seemingly not developed over time led to devastating effects,” the 162-page report stated. “The absence of trust between the police in Ferguson and many in the community

negatively impacted the response of all agencies involved and was a barrier to responding agencies’ efforts to communicate effectively with the community.” In the days immediately after the shooting Aug. 9, Ferguson officials struggled to manage a growing public storm before most of the authority was turned over to the Missouri Highway Patrol. Among the most criticized tactical decisions was the choice to send military-style vehicles and weapons into the fray. “The use of military weapons

larly where racial tensions exist. “The use of canines for crowd control in Ferguson was an inappropriate and ineffective strategy,” the report concluded. Ferguson police officials were not immediately available for comment Thursday. Ronald Davis, director of Justice’s Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) unit who oversaw the federal review, said last year’s rapidly unfolding events posed “unprecedented challenges” for law enforcement. He hoped the pointed review,

Federal authorities also seized on the use of canine teams by three of the agencies, indicating that such a tactic “invokes powerful emotions in many observing citizens and protesters, particu-

which contained 113 “lessons learned,” would serve as a “road map” for the nation’s 16,000 police agencies. “We know that the truth often hurts, but ignorance is fatal,” Davis said, adding that local authorities requested the review. Davis said no “one fatal error” was to blame for the deeply flawed response.

As Labor Day nears, many workers aren’t celebrating

As Labor Day approaches, Capital Download sits down with Labor Secretary Thomas Perez to talk about stagnant wages, the ‘gig’ economy and the 2016 presidential race. Questions and answer have been edited for length and clarity. Q: It’s almost Labor Day, but a lot of American workers aren’t celebrating. Unemployment is down, but wages remain stagnant. Is this the new normal? Perez: Absolutely not. We’ve made a lot of progress. We’ve had 65 consecutive months of private-sector job growth, to the tune of 13 million jobs. But there are still way too many people who either want a job and don’t have one or people like those I met in Detroit just a few days ago, fastfood workers. I met a woman working 30 hours a week, trying to make ends meet, three children. And she slept the night be-

fore I met her in her car because she’s homeless. We can do better. We can build a nation of shared prosperity. And that’s the unfinished business, making sure the wind that’s at our back economically results in shared prosperity. Q: What can government do? Perez: We need tighter labor markets; we still have slack in the labor markets. ... We’re fighting hard to increase the minimum wage. ... We’ve doing an overtime regulation, so that potentially 5 million people who are working overtime but not getting paid can benefit. Q: Some Americans are doing well in this recovery: the people at the top. What are the effects of the growing disparity between the wealthy and the middle of the workforce? Perez: That’s the unfinished business of this recovery. When you look at historic data, for decades after the Second World War, when productivity grew, real wages grew. Workers shared in the prosperity of the productivity that they had so contributed to. Then starting a few decades ago

“Workers all too frequently have been taking it on the chin. They’re working hard and falling behind.” Labor Secretary Thomas Perez JACK GRUBER, USA TODAY

— this predates the Great Recession — productivity and real wages started to move in different directions. Workers are baking the pie of prosperity but they’re not sharing in those dividends. That’s what we’re trying to do, is level the playing field. Because all too frequently, the system gets rigged against workers. Q: The White House has announced a Summit on Workers on Oct. 7. What’s the goal? Perez: Workers all too frequently have been taking it on the chin. What we want to do is call attention to the fact that when workers and business work together you can do well by your shareholders and you can do well by your customers, that’s how we create a virtuous cycle.

NOW SHOWING AT USATODAY.COM

More from Capital Download’s conversation with Labor Secretary Thomas Perez.

Q: Does the new ‘gig ’ economy require different approaches by Washington? Perez: One thing that’s important to do ... is to avoid the trap of false choices. I see a number of candidates on the Republican side for president saying you either innovate or you regulate. They hail an Uber and use that to say, ‘See, if we just get government regulation out of the way, we can create prosperity.’ That’s a false choice. ... It’s not either innovate or regulate. One idea that’s been proposed,

how do you make sure there’s a safety net for people, health insurance and other things? Because one aspect of the gig economy for a lot of people is they’re basically walking the high-wire without a net. There’s been a lot of discussion about how to create these ‘leave banks’ and I think there’s emerging innovation there. Q: The administration had a knock-down, drag-out fight with organized labor over Trade Promotion Authority. Labor lost. What does that tell us about labor’s clout? Perez: Trade has always had bipartisan support and bipartisan opposition. So what we saw in the most recent debate was not new. ... We agree on 98% of the agenda for building shared prosperity in America. This happens to be that 2%. Q: Should Joe Biden jump in? Perez: The vice president will have to make that decision. I absolutely think the world not only of the vice president but also his wife. ... I’ve been blessed to call him a friend and a mentor, and the same with Dr. (Jill) Biden.

But market turmoil may keep board from raising interest rates Paul Davidson @PDavidsonusat USA TODAY

It could take a blockbuster payroll report Friday to nudge the Federal Reserve into raising interest rates this month, but after recent market turmoil, some economists say the Fed won’t move even if the job gains are eye-popping. “September is most probably off the table,” economist Jesse Hurwitz of Barclays Capital says. The Fed hasn’t raised its benchmark rate since 2006, and it has

“They certainly don’t want to be blamed for causing a crash.”

hovered near zero since the 2008 financial crisis. Economists expect the Labor Department to report that employers added a solid 218,000 jobs in August, in line with the 211,000 average monthly additions so far this year. Payroll processor ADP said Wednesday its own sampling showed businesses added 190,000 jobs last month. But Hurwitz says even 300,000 gains, a further drop in the nearnormal 5.3% unemployment rate and accelerated wage growth won’t move the Fed’s needle. His reasoning is simple: It takes at least a couple of months for battered markets to affect the real economy, and the impact likely won’t be evident in economic reports released before the Fed’s Sept. 16-17 meeting.

Jim O’Sullivan, chief U.S. economist of High Frequency Economics, agreeing that a September rate hike is unlikely, especially since such a move would further stoke a bear market

Stocks have fallen nearly 7% the past couple of weeks, oil prices have been volatile and the dollar has strengthened, developments triggered mostly by China’s economic slowdown. Falling equity prices can dampen the confidence and spending of consumers and businesses. Meanwhile low oil prices can hurt energy investment, and a rising greenback can curtail exports, in-

tensifying recent trends. All told, Hurwitz says, the market stress is likely to shave two-tenths of a percentage point off economic growth and raise the unemployment rate by a similar amount over the next 18 months. Noting that inflation is expected to remain stubbornly below the Fed’s annual 2% target the rest of the year, Hurwitz says he doesn’t expect the Fed to hoist rates until next March. Jim O’Sullivan, chief U.S. economist of High Frequency Economics, agrees that a September rate hike is now unlikely, especially since such a move would further stoke a bear market. “They certainly don’t want to be blamed for causing a crash,” he says. But he says a report of more

MONEYLINE TRADE DEFICIT DROPS 7.4% The U.S. trade deficit fell in July to the lowest in five months as exports posted a small gain while imports fell, reflecting a big drop in shipments of consumer goods such as cellphones. The deficit narrowed to $41.9 billion in July, a 7.4% decline from a June imbalance of $45.2 billion, the Commerce Department reported Thursday. Exports were up 0.4% to $188.5 billion, helped by stronger sales of U.S.-made cars and machinery, while imports declined 1.1% to $230.4 billion. So far this year, the deficit is running 3.6% above last year’s level.

NEW IPHONE MALWARE HITS JAILBROKEN PHONES News of scary new iPhone malware dubbed “Key Raider” is trending, but there’s a caveat — it only hits phones that are jailbroken. “The average iPhone user is not affected,” said Tyler Reguly of Tripwire, a security company. Jailbreaking refers to removing the operating system hardware restrictions on an Apple device. It’s done to allow downloads of non-Apple approved apps. The malicious software steals Apple account usernames, passwords and device information by intercepting iTunes traffic on the user’s device.

Jaguar announced Thursday that it is cutting list prices in a bid to hit harder at the core of the luxury market, an unusual move in a snooty upscale market that risks the brand’s air of exclusivity. “Our pricing has consistently been at the top of the luxury segment,” says Rob Filipovic, head of product planning for the Jaguar Land Rover in the U.S. “We no longer want to be a high-priced outlier in the luxury market.” As a result, the 2016 Jaguar XF 35t midsize sedan with a V-6 engine will be base-priced at $52,885, including shipping, down 9% over the lowest-priced 2015 model. The 2016 XJ flagship sedan will start at $75,395 with what Jaguar says is $7,000 more in goodies — standard ventilated seats, a fancier sound system, LED headlights with automatic high beams and more.

Top 10 largest monthly decline

than 250,000 employment gains Friday at least raises the odds of the Fed pulling the trigger in two weeks. Paul Ashworth of Capital Economics says such a showing likely would convince the Fed to act. He expects virtually no impact of recent market gyrations on U.S. economic growth, though he says the central bank could be persuaded to hold off by reports of further troubles in China. Weakness in the world’s second-largest economy can have widespread effects on global trade. At the same time, Ashworth says, job gains below 150,000 would add to fears of a slowdown and likely ensure the Fed doesn’t make a move. “If it’s around 200,000, it’s essentially a toss-up,” he says.

AAA expects 30.4 million people to hit the road this holiday weekend.

Paul Davidson USA TODAY

ith stock markets hitting some major bumps recently, cheap gasoline should provide Americans a far smoother ride this Labor Day weekend and the likely prospect of $2 pump prices by Christmas. Average regular unleaded will cost the least for the Labor Day break since 2011, AAA says. The national average was $2.44 a gallon Thursday, down nine cents over the past week and $1 below the year-ago price. Prices have fallen sharply in recent days and are expected to continue to edge down through the weekend after BPs refinery in Whiting,Ind. — the largest in the Midwest — was repaired in late August, increasing gasoline supplies, says AAA spokesman Avery Ash. The facility was unexpectedly shut down earlier in the month. The lower costs are coming despite what AAA expects to be the busiest Labor Day weekend for motorists since 2008, with 30.4 million travelers hitting the road, up 1.1% from a year ago. Credit solid job and income growth, along with bargains at the pump.

Oil prices have been volatile recently, dropping below $40 a barrel early last week for the first time in six years and then rallying as much as 28% in recent days on reports of lower-than-estimated U.S. production and possible cuts in output by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. West Texas Intermediate futures closed up 50 cents Wednesday at $46.75 a barrel. The recent oil rally could filter into gasoline, modestly propping up prices even after the holiday weekend, Ash says. Yet pump prices are headed down in coming months, analysts say. They remained higher than the fall in oil would suggest because of the most active U.S. summer driving season in eight years and requirements for reformulated summer gasoline blends, experts say. Both will be over by mid-September, pushing down gas prices, and the slide will intensify after seasonal refinery maintenance ends in mid-October, says Gregg Laskowski, a senior petroleum analyst at gasbuddy.com. “We definitely believe gas will follow a downward trend for the remainder of the calendar year,” Laskowski says. Gas, he says, are likely to fall below $2 a gallon nationally will by December.

JAGUAR

Jaguar’s entry-level, lowerpriced compact XE sedan will start at $35,885.

The move comes as Jaguar introduces two lower-priced models that it believes together could make up as much as half of its coming sales. The entry-level compact XE sedan and F-Pace SUV both are aimed at bringing newer, younger buyers to the storied British brand. They expand the lineup to five models. The new XE will start at $35,885, which Jaguar says will put it in the heart of the market. No pricing has been announced on the F-Pace. But in cutting prices, Jaguar has to make sure it is not seen as watering down its image as an elite brand — the transport of choice for British royalty and rock stars — in a crowded luxury marketplace. Jaguar, which traditionally has sold cars instead of trucks, has suffered in a market where buyers have turned in droves toward SUVs. It sold 10,221 cars through the first eight months of the year, down 4.4% from the same period last year, Autodata reports. By contrast, companion brand Land Rover, which markets only SUVs, sold 42,548, up 20%. The new F-Pace, making its formal debut this month at the Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany, will give Jaguar a foothold in the crossover market, but it’s yet to be seen whether it simply takes away sales that might otherwise have gone to Land Rover.

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

It’s almost gametime. No, not Jets football. We’re talking “Jobs Friday” — the big game on Wall Street — which is being billed as the most important release of U.S. jobs data in a very long time. What’s got Wall Street analysts so pumped up for the big August jobs report? Two words: The Fed. What’s the Federal Reserve got to do with all the hoopla around how many jobs the nation created last month? A lot. If jobs come in super strong it could boost the odds of a Fed interest rate hike when the central bank meets again Sept. 16-17. Low rates, of course, have helped power stocks higher the past six years. Here’s the morning line, Wall Street’s version of the under and

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

over, for tomorrow’s jobs number: Economists are expecting roughly 218,000 new jobs created last month and unemployment to inch down to 5.2% from 5.3%. The expectation is for the economy to again pump out more than 200,000 new jobs and send yet another message that U.S. job growth is healthy. And the Fed is on record saying they’re waiting for more improvement in employment before hiking rates. But here’s the rub. Even though U.S. data, ranging from employment to auto sales to the services part of the economy, are coming in strong and point to the first hike since 2006, there’s a big elephant out there: China. Beijing’s weakening economy and wobbly stock market and what it means for market stability is a wildcard. A strong jobs report will make the Fed’s decision on rates that much tougher.

Commodity prices could keep comeback at bay Q: Is the pain over for Joy Global? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Talk about a business that’s more pain than joy: supplying equipment to the commodity industry. Falling commodity prices are putting a squeeze on the entire industry. Weak demand for commodity gear is causing a startling lack of joy for investors in Joy Global. The company makes equipment used primarily to extract commodities such as coal. The business is struggling mightily — both fundamentally and on the stock market. Shares of Joy are down roughly 70% over the past year as earnings dry up faster than expected. The company reported a quarterly profit of 54 cents a share, missing expectations by 12%. More concerning is the company isn’t seeing a bounce-back anytime soon, only continued weakness. The company told investors it expects to earn $1.80 a share in fiscal 2015, down from the previously expected range of $2.50 to $3 a share. Analysts are holding out a lofty price target, saying the stock should be worth $40.32 a share in 18 months. If that’s correct, it would be 116% potential upside. But analysts also don’t seem all that sure the bet is worthwhile — as the average rating on the stock is “hold.” New Constructs, which compares stock prices to expected future cash flows, rates the stock “neutral.”

A year later, CVS says no-cigarette policy was a success Jayne O’Donnell USA TODAY

The decision to stop tobacco sales at all of its drugstores a year ago caused people to buy 95 million fewer packs of cigarettes in 13 states, CVS Health says in a new study out Thursday. The new study compared total sales of tobacco products at all types of stores in the 13 states where CVS has more than 15% of market share with sales in states that don’t have any CVS stores. The study, conducted by CVS’ Health Research Institute, evalu-

CVS

CVS says 95 million fewer packs of cigarettes have been sold.

ated cigarette pack purchases at drug, food, mass merchandise, dollar, convenience and gas station stores in the eight months after CVS stopped selling tobacco

products. Over the same period, the average smoker in these states purchased five fewer cigarette packs. During 2014, nearly 264 billion cigarettes were sold in the U.S., a decrease from 273 billion sold in 2013, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The CVS study also showed a 4% increase in nicotine patch purchases in the 13 states in the period immediately following the end of tobacco sales, which the company says shows there was also “a positive effect on attempts to quit smoking.” CVS and its foundation also announced Thursday that it is

funding a new school-based tobacco-prevention curriculum through the textbook company Scholastic. The effort might have been able to influence Troyen Brennan, a physician who is CVS Health’s chief medical officer. In an interview, Brennan said he smoked for a few years while in his teens. Brennan says he expects the study results should address critics who said CVS’ move was “not going to make a difference overall.” But at least one critic says CVS is making a questionable leap by taking credit.

“CVS only sold a very small percentage of the nation’s cigarettes to start with, and financial analysts have said the impact of CVS’ move wouldn’t have a major impact on smoking rates,” says Jeff Stier, a senior fellow at the free market-oriented National Center for Public Policy Research. “But the bold claim that its decision to stop selling cigarettes actually got a significant number of smokers to just buy the mostly ineffective nicotine patches and quit smoking, only illustrates how little the company knows about the difficulty of quitting.”

Prince’s ‘HitNRun’: Own the hits and run the show Arienne Thompson @ByArienne USA TODAY

CHANHASSEN, MINN.

Prince has some advice for up-and-coming artists that music industry bigwigs probably don’t want disseminated: “Stop signing contracts. You don’t belong to people; that’s over with,” he says during USA TODAY’s three-hour visit to the 57-year-old’s Paisley Park compound in suburban Minneapolis. Of course, his disdain for the traditional artist-label relationship is well-documented and decades long, but his passion for the more David-and-Goliath aspects of the topic is as fiery as ever. How fiery? Well, here’s what he says about voiding his membership with the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers — the body that pays royalties to musicians whenever their music is played: “To actually tell ASCAP, ‘Why am I a member of this? I don’t have to stay there, do I?’ When you examine what they are, why should any of us be a part of it? … We’re not against anything — it’s what we’re for.” It’s that kind of thinking that led Prince to another rule-breaking musician — Jay Z — whose mission to disrupt the paid streaming service model by investing in Tidal sounded like music to Prince’s ears. Prince, whose unflinching, don’t-mess-with-my-money attitude belies his elfin appearance, says he chatted with other digital music companies before selecting

NPG RECORDS

Prince’s new album, HitNRun, is available exclusively to Tidal subscribers.

Tidal as the exclusive home for his new album, HitNRun, available to subscribers Monday. The album will live solely on Tidal. So, why Jay Z? Because he gets it, Prince says. “Jay Z didn’t want to get the same wages (as everyone else),” he says. “God’s not broke, why should we be? I’m not mad at anybody for being successful. “A lot of us grew up broke, and we’re not trying to go back to it. And we don’t wish that for anybody else.” Despite its A-list backing, Tidal has been slow to get off the ground, but you won’t find Prince in the chorus of critical voices, which includes musicians Mumford & Sons and Lily Allen, who

have slammed its $9.99 to 19.99 monthly fee as too expensive and unfair to fans. “I’m not going to criticize Jay Z. I didn’t spend my money,” Prince says. “Can you see me in the newspaper saying something negative about Tidal?” Besides, in addition to its artist-owned DNA, Tidal’s high-definition sound quality was a plus for Prince, a consummate musician who wants listeners to really hear his music. “We take the time to make music. It’s actual people playing. You can hear all the humanity in it. “This is a top-of-the-line, sonically exquisite piece of work. You hear all of the effort.” There’s something else Prince wants listeners, fans, fellow artists and black America to hear: his message about pride in ownership. “(Fans) care about blackowned, don’t they? Go over (to other services) if you want. Any sort of ownership we have is really important,” he says about Tidal and its competition. “When you own your own community, you pay for your police department. “Police were created to protect property of white folks. They were originally slave catchers. … When you get your own studio, now what are (labels) going to provide for you?” He does own his own studio, in fact, and when it comes to the music he creates within its walls, a smirking Prince has the perfectly Prince-ian retort to this reporter’s (somewhat impatient) request to hear HitNRun in its entirety. “Did you bring money?”

Lawrence real estate market continues upward trend By Liz WesLander

Hometown Lawrence

The summer season has been hot for the Lawrence real estate market, and July was no exception, with numbers up nearly across the board. New construction, which experienced its first increase in a long time in June, saw continued growth in July as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People were still out buying in July and getting more home for their money due to the lower interest rates,â&#x20AC;? said Crystal Swearingen, President of the Lawrence Board of Realtors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The market is again improving with more home sales this July over July last year. Some of the best news is showing up in new construction.â&#x20AC;? Home sales in Lawrence totaled 170 units in July 2015, up

from 148 in 2014, representing an increase of 14.9 percent. Among existing homes, 157 units sold in July, an increase of 12.1 percent from 140 units that sold in 2014. The average sale price of existing homes was $198,117. This represents an increase of 9.9 percent from the July 2014 average price of $180,235. For new construction, 13 sales occurred in July, up from eight units the prior year, an increase of 62.5 percent. The average sale price of new homes in July was $311,038, down 16.7 percent from the same period last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;New construction is staying strong, and new home listings are up 28 percent from last year,â&#x20AC;? said Swearingen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are seeing an increase in new construction

in the city and even in already developed areas.â&#x20AC;? Swearingen said that local realtors have also recently noticed an overall jump in the price ranges that are being considered by first time homebuyers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where we used to think under $125,000, people are coming into the market at $140,000,â&#x20AC;? said Swearingen. There were a total of 108 contracts for sale written in July 2015, up from 97 in July 2014. This is an increase of 11.3 percent. Contracts written during the month reflect, in part, sales that will close in the near future. The inventory of active listings in the city of Lawrence stood at 316 units at the end of July,

This home at 726 Louisiana Street in downtown Lawrence is listed at $475,000. July market statistics from the Lawrence Board of Realtors show prices and sales are on the rise.

which is down from 417 homes that were on the market at the end of July last year. At the current rate of sales, this figure represents merely 1.9 monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; supply of homes on the market. A balanced market will have 5 to

6 monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; supply of homes on the market. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Liz Weslander writes about the Lawrence real estate market for Hometown Lawrence. Contact her at lizweslander@hotmail.com.

The blessing and the curse of a company that’s almost 65 years old is you’ve got a lot of history. Sometimes you get very comfortable - I won’t say complacent - in the style and persona of your company. The real estate industry is changing so fast, and we’re balancing the legacy systems of the past with the demands of the future. We’re in the Midwest, so we’ve still got the newspaper and the open houses. But we’ve got to have the Internet, and we’ve got to have Facebook.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR CLINT BOWEN instructs players at a KU KANSAS OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR/QUARTERBACKS COACH ROB LIKENS snaps a ball football practice in this photo from Aug. 8. during practice in this file photo from April 14.

Bowen expects defense OC Likens can’t wait to be tested by SDSU to reveal Air Raid The Kansas University football team’s two top assistants walked into Mrkonic Auditorium to meet the media, and several reporters rushed to offensive coordinator Rob Likens. I decided to approach defensive coordinator Clint Bowen to see if maybe he had chicken pox. Nope. He’s healthy. It’s just the way it goes. Offense sells. Defense tends to be discussed when it doesn’t do its job. Bowen pointed to the crowd’s reaction at spring intrasquad games as an illustration of that. “When does the crowd cheer?” he asked.

When a touchdown is scored. “Why aren’t they booing?” he joked. “Our defense just got scored on. Shouldn’t they be booing?” Good point.

First-year Kansas University offensive coordinator Rob Likens has been waiting for Saturday’s season opener against South Dakota State for a long time. “I just kind of want to see how good we are, because you really don’t know when you’ve been going against the same guys,” Likens said earlier this week. “I can’t wait to get out there and kind of see where we are.” It has been five seasons since Likens last called plays on a fulltime basis. And even that was at

Free State High football players still remember their 42-14 loss to Hutchinson in the Class 6A state semifinals last season. They’re ready to make up for it. The Firebirds open their season against Shawnee Mission West at 7 p.m. today at FSHS. “We kind of left a bad taste in our mouth after that loss to Hutch,” senior defen-

Former Lawrence High wrestler Reece WrightConklin, a three-time Class 6A state champion, died Thursday morning in a motorcycle crash in west Wichita. Wright-Conklin, 21, was driving to his parttime job at PetSmart when he crashed his Honda 600 sport bike into the side of the building, Wichita police Lt. Joe Schroeder told the Wichita Eagle. He was taken to a local hospital shortly after 4 a.m. in “extremely critical condition” and later died. Wright-Conklin wrestled at Newman Please see EX-LION, page 10C

a much different level when he was OC at Central Connecticut State. Beyond that, Likens, a longtime disciple of the Air Raid offense he and head coach David Beaty brought with them to Kansas, seems awfully curious to see how his stamp on the vaunted attack looks in live action. Because he has scripted the first 10 or so offensive plays — and he did it roughly a week and a half ago — Likens has an idea of what it might look like early in the game. But he admits that if Please see LIKENS, page 10C

sive lineman and tight end Darian Lewis said. “I’m really excited to get back out there and play.” The Firebirds beat the Vikings, 20-14, in their season opener last season. That game has special meaning for senior linebacker and running back Sam Skwarlo, who suffered a Lisfranc tear in his left foot, ending his season. During the preseason, Skwarlo has run through defenders with power and

physicality, looking like he’s making up for lost time. “Especially since I got hurt in that last game, I want to prove something to them or something of that sort,” Skwarlo said. “Very excited. It’s felt like forever.” SM West returns eight players on defense — five linebackers — and seven on offense after posting a 6-5 record last season.

Big 12 No. 2 TCU 23, Minnesota 17 Minneapolis — Trevone Boykin threw for 246 yards and a touchdown and ran for 92 yards and another score to help TCU outlast Minnesota on Thursday night. Boykin started his Heisman push by completing 26 of 42 passes. But he also threw an interception and the Horned Frogs had a difficult time getting their frenetic offense rolling against Minnesota’s determined defense. Their 23 points were their fewest scored since Nov. 9, 2013. Jaden Oberkrom made three field goals, including a 53-yarder, and Josh Doctson had eight catches for 74 yards and a touchdown for TCU. Mitch Leidner threw for 197 yards for Minnesota. His touchdown pass to K.J. Maye with 1:32 left pulled the Golden Gophers within a touchdown, but TCU recovered the onside kick to hang on. Boykin wasn’t particularly sharp in the opener. He missed two wide-open receivers down the field for easy touchdowns, including Shaun Nixon all alone in the end zone in the fourth quarter. TCU 10 Minnesota 0 First Quarter TCU-FG Oberkrom 53, 6:58. TCU-Doctson 11 pass (Oberkrom kick), 5:46. Second Quarter Minn-FG Santoso 42, 5:22.

1998 — The New York Yankees reach 100 wins on the earliest date in major league history — five days before the 1906 Chicago Cubs and 1954 Cleveland Indians — with an 11-6 victory over the Chicago White Sox. The ’06 Cubs set the major league record for fewest games to reach 100 victories (132). 2002 — Argentina pulls off a victory once considered nearly impossible, defeating the United States 87-80 in the World Basketball Championships at Indianapolis. It’s the first loss for a U.S. team since the Americans began sending NBA players to international tournaments.

FREE STATE SENIOR ALLIE KNAPP GETS UP to spike against Lansing on Thursday at FSHS.

FSHS splits opening tri By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Free State High volleyball players weren’t happy with how they played against Lansing in their season opener on Thursday. Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait long to take out any frustration on another team. The Firebirds split their home triangular with a loss to Lansing (2510, 25-23) and a victory over Topeka Seaman (2515, 25-18) at FSHS. In the first match against Lansing (2-0, ranked No. 6 in Class 5A), Free State struggled to find much rhythm on offense, firing shots out of bounds. In the second set, the Firebirds led, 2219, but lost five straight points and their chance at forcing a third set. When the Firebirds took the floor against Seaman, the difference was drastic. They were polished offensively, tossing strong passes to senior Allie Knapp and juniors Naomi Hickman, Emma Barberena, Larissa Gaumer and Payton Gannaway for kills all over the court. “A switch clicked, and I think that we all just kind of realized that we shouldn’t be waiting any longer to play,” said Knapp, who had four kills and a team-high eight digs against Seaman. “We were playing so nervous and so tense. We were all playing so individually that first game. I think we just decided we gotta play as a team to win, so that’s what we did.” Near the beginning of the second set against Seaman, the Firebirds went on a roll, winning 12 of 14 points. They forced the Vikings (0-2, ranked No. 7 in 5A) into several attacking errors with their tall and athletic blockers:

Hickman, Gaumer, junior Natalie Clarke and senior Rebekah Andersson. Meanwhile, junior setter Jenalee Dickson and senior setter Lauren Johnson found the 6-foot5 Hickman, who smashed a couple of kills at the middle of the net. Hickman led the Firebirds with six kills against Seaman, while Barberena added five. “As soon as we established our middle, that changes the game,” said FSHS coach Amy Hoffsommer, who earned her first win with the Firebirds. “That’s typically what offense wants to do is establish their middle first and then work out from there. You have a lot more one-on-one blocking that way. That’s what wins.” In between matches, the Firebirds talked about becoming more aggressive on offense and trying to have more fun on the court. “We play so much better when we’re relaxed,” Knapp said. “That’s what we’ve been talking about every day at practice … just playing as a team, staying relaxed, and it’s really helped us. We just kind of sat down together and just realized, ‘Let’s just do this.’” Facing two highly ranked opponents, the Firebirds wanted to see how they stood against top competition. After their first win of the year against Seaman, they know they have plenty of things to work on but were happy with their start. “I’m excited for the season,” Barberena said. “I hope most of our games are like that.” Free State will play in the Shawnee Mission North quad at 5 p.m. Thursday.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Royals skipped their normal batting practice before Thursday night’s game against the Detroit Tigers, a prudent move considering how hot they have been at the plate lately. They wound up getting plenty of swings in during the game anyway. Lorenzo Cain hit a three-run homer, Paulo Orlando added a tworun shot, and Kendrys Morales drove in four as Kansas City routed Detroit 15-7 to wrap up another series win. Ben Zobrist drove in two runs for the Royals, whose 15 runs and 20 hits were their most since piling up 21 hits in a 16-8 victory at Colorado on July 3, 2011. “It was definitely a long game,” Cain said, “but we’ll take that kind of win.” Chris Young (10-6) got the victory with two scoreless innings in relief of Edinson Volquez, who yielded six runs, eight hits and a walk in three innings — but still put on a smile. “It’s just part of the game,” he said. “Just a bad day.” Not as bad as Matt Boyd’s day. The Tigers starter was hammered for six runs before getting the hook four batters into the second inning. The last batter he faced was Cain,

6-foot-4 quarterback Adam Rellihan, running back Jason Meeker and receivers Ben Karlin and Isreal Watson. For the Firebirds, the biggest question in the offseason was replacing the majority of their offensive and defensive lines after losing several starters to graduation. Seniors Tanner Liba (offensive line) and Jalen Galloway (defensive line) are the only returning starters. Lewis moved to defensive line in the summer. “Considering we have a new defense and ev-

ROYALS CENTER FIELDER LORENZO CAIN (6) IS CONGRATULATED by teammates Ben Zobrist (18) and Eric Hosmer, right, after hitting a three-run home run during the second inning of the Royals’ 15-7 victory over the Tigers on Thursday in Kansas City, Missouri. whose skyscraping homer barely cleared the wall in left field on its descent for his second in two nights. “I just couldn’t throw stuff where I wanted to,” Boyd said. Reliever Kyle Ryan (13) was tagged with the loss as Detroit pitchers allowed 61 runs during a 1-5 trip through Toronto and Kansas City, two teams in the thick of the playoff hunt. “You better learn from it,” Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. “You better try to get better ‘cause if it gets any worse, I don’t know what we’ll do. This was a very tough road trip for the pitching staff. We do have some young

guys, but we’ve got to work to get them better.” Nick Castellanos drove in three runs for the Tigers while James McCann drove in two. After dropping the series opener, the Royals managed 34 hits and 27 runs in taking the next two games. That allowed the AL Central leaders to extend their unbeaten streak to eight series. The teams combined for 34 hits while leaving 18 on base in a game that lasted 3 hours, 58 minutes. The first inning alone included 76 pitches — 38 each side — along with seven hits, five runs and two visits from pitching coaches during a 46-minute marathon.

talk unless we implement it and play. I think we can do that. We have a lot of talent. We just have to show it.” LHS senior quarterback Alan Clothier has worked on his passing throughout the offseason, hoping to add some explosiveness to the offense. The Lions also have senior JD Woods, junior Trey Moore and sophomore Dante Jackson in the backfield. Woods led the Sunflower League with 1,667 rushing yards last year, adding 20 touchdowns. Defensively, the Lions are loaded with speed and strength. All-state returner Amani Bledsoe, one of the top recruits nationally, leads a po-

They also return three starting linebackers: seniors Price Morgan, Tanner Green and Konner Kelley. However, they won’t completely be at full strength. The Lions will be without cornerback

Even with the new linemen, the Firebirds have plenty of familiar faces at skill positions, including senior quarterback and safety Bryce Torneden, a North Dakota State commit; linebackers Paul Bittinger, Jay Dineen; and cornerback Zack Sanders. After a long offseason, the Firebirds are ready to see how they stack up against another team. “We’ve been going at it pretty hard all summer, then the last two weeks, obviously, in practice,” FSHS coach Bob Lisher said. “This week, we finally got some August heat in September. We’ve got to get used to that, as well. But it’s good. We need to play. These guys need to get out and play and see where we’re at.”

Jared Dudley, linebacker Matt Jacobsen and defensive lineman Peter Afful because of injuries. “We’ve been planning on this class,” LHS coach Dirk Wedd said of the seniors. “Eleven of them lettered as sophomores. That’s unheard of. Now we took our lumps. Last

year they were pretty much the leaders of that football team because most of them started.” Blue Valley West (ranked No. 4 in Class 5A in the coaches’ poll) crushed Lawrence in last year’s season opener, 3713. The Jaguars return six starters on offense and five on defense, including 6-foot-4 quarterback Nathan Wiles, a University of Oklahoma baseball commit, and cornerback and receiver Mark Collins Jr. The Lions want to show how much potential they have, but more than anything, they’re just happy to be returning to the field. “Oh, man, this has been a very long week for me,” senior receiver and cornerback Ivan Hollins said. “I’ve been counting down since the summer. I’ve been waiting for this game for a long time.”

bury Academy picked up a pair of volleyball victories on Thursday at Jackson Heights High. Seabury (3-0) beat Jackson Heights, 25-16, 25-17; and Onaga, 25-19, 22-25, 25-17. “Tonight, much like Tuesday versus Atchison, was a total team effort,” Seabury coach Chrissy Leuty said. “The best thing about this team is that it is not a one-man show. I have six starters that all carry a chunk of the load and are all able

to. There is not one girl on the floor that I do not trust with the ball in her hands when the game is on the line.” Regan Zaremba had 24 assists and six digs; Lindsey Hornberger added 13 digs, 11 kills and five aces; Vivian Aubel had eight digs, seven kills and six aces; and Celia TaylorPuckett contributed five digs, three kills and two aces.” Seabury will play Saturday in the McLouth Tournament.

NFL ROUNDUP

Tebow tosses two TDs The Associated Press

Jets 24, Eagles 18 East Rutherford, N.J. — Tim Tebow threw two touchdown passes and an interception in his final opportunity to make Philadelphia’s roster, and the Eagles fell to New York on Thursday night. Tebow, competing with Matt Barkley for the No. 3 quarterback job, flashed some of the playmaking and inconsistency that have made him so polarizing. He finished 11-of-17 for 189 yards, and added 32 yards on four rushes.

Packers 38, Saints 10 Green Bay, Wis. — Rookie quarterback Brett Hundley threw for four scores, and Myles White made a case for a spot on the Packers’ injury-stricken receiving corps with two touchdowns. Panthers 23, Steelers 6 Pittsburgh — Jordan Todman ran for a long touchdown, and Carolina’s defense shut down the Pittsburgh backups. Buccaneers 22, Dolphins 17 Miami Gardens, Fla. — Jameis Winston sat out, and DeVante Parker played. Some Bucs starters played briefly, but No. 1 overall draft pick Winston took the night off after warming up. Almost all of the Dolphins’ starters sat out, and they didn’t play either of their top two quarterbacks, Ryan Tannehill or Matt Moore. Jaguars 17, Redskins 16 Landover, Md. — Jason Myers kicked a 47-yard field goal with 3:32 left in his debut as Jacksonville’s starter. Lions 17, Bills 10 Detroit — Rookie Zach Zenner, fighting for a roster spot, ran for a goahead, three-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. Giants 12, Patriots 9 Foxborough, Mass. — Chris Boswell kicked four field goals, and New York defeated New England, Titans 24, Vikings 17 Nashville, Tenn. — Marcus Mariota threw a 59-yard touchdown pass to Harry Douglas to cap his only series. Bears 24, Browns 0 Chicago — David Fales made his case to be Chicago’s third-string quarterback, throwing two touchdown passes. Cowboys 21, Texans 14 Arlington, Texas — Ben Malena ran five yards for the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter. Cardinals 22, Broncos 20 Denver — Playing in a final preseason game for the first time since 2009, running back Chris Johnson ran 11 times for 45 yards. 49ers 14, Chargers 12 Santa Clara, Calif. — Bruce Ellington showed he appears back to full strength.

Judge’s ruling clears way for Brady New York (ap) — Tom Brady learned Thursday he will start the season on the field after a judge lifted the league’s four-game suspension of the star quarterback for a scandal over deflated footballs, saying he was treated unfairly by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. The league quickly appealed. U.S. District Judge Richard M. Berman criticized Goodell for dispensing “his own brand of industrial justice” as he found multiple reasons to reject the suspension one week before New

England’s Sept. 10 opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Super Bowl MVP has insisted he played no role in a conspiracy to deflate footballs below the allowable limit at last season’s AFC championship game, a 45-7 rout of the Indianapolis Colts. The judge cited “several significant legal deficiencies” in the league’s handling of the controversy, including no advance notice of potential penalties, a refusal to produce a key witness and the apparent first-ever discipline of a player based on a finding

White Sox rally past Twins, 6-4

Bengals 9, Colts 6 Indianapolis — Tom Obarski made a 28-yard field goal with 2:49 left, and the Bengals’ defense kept Indianapolis out of The Associated Press the end zone. Falcons 20, Ravens 19 Atlanta — Sean Renfree threw a touchdown pass and led another scoring drive to overshadow the preseason debut of Rex Grossman.

American League White Sox 6, Twins 4 Minneapolis — J.B. Shuck’s two-run, pinchhit triple in the seventh inning sent Chicago past Minnesota on Thursday, the Twins’ last home game before beginning a key road trip. Eddie Rosario hit a grand slam for the Twins, who fell 11⁄2 games behind idle Texas for the second AL wild-card spot. Minnesota now starts a nine-game swing to division leaders Houston and Kansas City and wraps up at the White Sox. Shuck’s liner off reliever Casey Fien (4-6) made it 5-4 and helped Chicago win for just the second time in 10 games at Target Field this season. Shuck scored later in the seventh on Adam Eaton’s sacrifice fly.

league appealed to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan with a one-page notice from NFL attorney Daniel Nash. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league would not seek an emergency stay, freeing Brady to play while the case is appealed. It could be months before the court considers the case, since the league would have to show it would suffer irreparable harm to speed up the timetable. Goodell will also skip the Steelers-Pats opener next week.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Juco coach touts new walk-on roster as a non-scholarship player. Young, a 2013 Lansing High grad who averaged 10.0 points and 5.6 rebounds his freshman year at KCKCC — he tore an ACL in Game Five a year ago — joined the Jayhawks program on the recommendation of Newton, a friend of KU coach Bill Self and assistant Norm Roberts. “Our relationship goes way back,” Newton said. “Coach Self was one of the coaches in the recruiting process. He and coach Roberts were at Tulsa at the time. They recruited me heavily. Even though I went to Oklahoma, coach Self has always treated me like I played for him. I have so much respect for coach Roberts and Self. “He (Self) has allowed me to watch practice and do some things and talk to him frequently. As I grow in the business, he’s one of the guys I look up to in the coaching world, that I keep in contact with, as well as coach Sampson, who is at Houston.” Newton told Self and Roberts they would be well served to consider adding Young as a walkon. “Clay is a tough kid, one who will run through

a wall for you,” Newton said. “I have two daughters, of course not of Clay’s age. The biggest compliment I could give is, if he wanted to date one of my daughters at an appropriate age, there would be no problem. He has great character, great values. He’s driven for success not only financially, but in life, pe- Young riod. He’s one of those guys you love to be around. “He’s a team player but also stands for something way bigger than himself. He’s one of those great individuals I want in my program and will be a value and asset to any program. He’ll bring that to Kansas. He has a great sense of humor as well,” Newton added. Plus, Young is a lifelong KU fan who desperately wants KU to win and win big. “It’s always been his dream to be at Kansas. I’m really happy for the young man. He gets to live out a dream,” Newton said. “He gets to live

out something he wanted to do as a young kid, a goal he set as a youth.” Young’s life has changed dramatically in 10 months. He tore the ACL in his left knee in the second half of a game against St. Louis CC last Nov. 15. “I had surgery the 26th of November, so it hasn’t been a year yet,” Young said. “After surgery, it took me four months to fully recover. I was back on the court playing by May 1. I had a pretty speedy recovery. I hit rehab hard. I didn’t miss any days. I just wanted to be able to walk and run again. I’m still kind of getting in the swing of things.” Newton was a big help during recovery from the surgery. “I tore mine (ACL) on Halloween 1998 at Oklahoma,” Newton said. “I was back by February of that year and tournament time. Nowadays, for these athletes, outpatient surgery is down to a science. Doctors do a great job building up that tendon so you can get back to work. It’s a 24-hour thing, rest and rehab and six to eight months back on the court and playing. He was a warrior with

that (rehab),” Newton added of Young. Coincidentally, Young believes he would have gone on to play at a Div. II or NAIA school on scholarship had he had a stellar sophomore season and not had to sit out all but the five games at KCKCC. He’s pretty sure he’d rather be a walkon at KU, even though it won’t mean much playing time in actual games. “For some reason, God made whatever happen, happen,” Young said. “I must have torn my ACL for some kind of reason. If I hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here. I’m blessed and thankful to be here.” And KU will be happy to have him here, Newton said. “Whatever the team needs, he’ll do it. He is not a follower. He is definitely a leader. He leads by example,” Newton said. “He’s a great character kid. He comes from a great family in Lansing, deeply rooted in core values. There couldn’t be a better situation for a better kid. The sky is the limit for him. I told him, ‘Use this and network, and you never know where it will take you.’ He’s the type of person who will go far (in life).”

They don’t on the KU defense? have a lot of problems.” “The defensive-end What the Jackrabbits spot,” Bowen said. “We have is stability. have some different “Their head coach type of players in there.

They’re all a little bit different. When you’ve got (Damani) Mosby, (Anthony) Olobia, (Ben) Goodman, (T.J.) Semke and (Dorrance) Armstrong, you’ve got five kids in there that in reality all five of them deserve to be starters. That’s definitely our deepest spot.” Armstrong’s a true freshman who was recruited by heavyweight programs. “Dorrance definintely will play,” Bowen said. “He’s a talented young man, has maturity about him and has done a good job to come in here and learn the defense.” Linebacker Marcquis Roberts, a graduate transfer from South Carolina, started 14 games for the Gamecocks and missed many others because of injuries. Courtney Arnick, who started five games for KU last season, joins him. Sophomore Joe Dineen of Free State High is new to the position, but will

be “a major contributor to our defense,” Bowen said. “He’s done a nice job of learning at linebacker. He’s a kid with a lot of want-to, motor and toughness. He’ll definitely be in there.” Nickelback Tevin Shaw, “pound for pound the strongest guy on the team,” and “just a tough, tough kid,” and starting safeties Fish Smithson and Greg Allen bring some game experience. “Fish is our best guy (at safety),” Bowen said. “He’s the guy that controls the show, knows what he’s doing the best and has the most production. Bazie (Bates) is coming along. He has never played a (Div. I) football game. We have to remember that.” Kansas has very little experience at cornerback, where speedy juco transfer Brandon Stewart and heady true freshman Tyrone Miller will start. “(Miller) came in here and played like a veteran guy from the first day

he stepped on campus,” Bowen said. “He’s not a kid who gets real excited, gets real down, gets real up. He’s a kid who shows up to work every day and has a very natural, instinctual ability to play. The game just kind of falls in place for him.” Kansas has a speed advantage vs. the Jacks, a factor that could keep inexperienced players’ confidence levels from caving. “I’m excited about our defensive line and hopeful on those guys” Bowen said. “I want to see that they can get off on the ball and cause some problems up there with a four-man pass rush. At the same time, I’m interested to see what our DBs can do. We’ve put a lot of emphasis on being smart players, being smart DBs. We need to take that to the game, so I’m cautiously optimistic on both ends.” Cautious optimism beats pessimism, even if only by a field goal.

Likens

one position will have Likens’ attention most often during the opener. “Just the quarterback,” he said of junior starter Montell Cozart. “I’m just interested to see how it all unfolds for our guy. Obviously, it’s the first time he’s gonna be in a game running this offense, so you just don’t know.” One thing Likens does know is that KU’s first opponent will not be a pushover. He said he

thought his players understood that and added that Beaty had done a good job of emphasizing that the Jackrabbits are ranked 15th in the competitive FCS polls for a number of reasons. “What’s gonna be tough is, they’re used to winning, they’re used to going to the playoffs, they’re used to having a winning record, and that’s tough to beat,” Likens said. “Opening up with a team like this, with

how tough they are and physical they’re gonna be, we’re gonna find out a lot about that area of our team. We’ll know. Because they’re gonna bring it out in us, I promise you that.” Added Beaty: “They’re used to playing in this environment. It’s not something that they’re not used to. I know they’re coming in here expecting to get after us from the word go, so we’ve got to be ready to go.”

Kelley Newton, who starred in both football and basketball at Kansas City Wyandotte High in the mid 1990s, would like to have attended a certain university just down the road from his childhood home. “I grew up wanting to go to Kansas. It didn’t happen,” said third-year Kansas City Kansas Community College hoops coach Newton, who, after going unnoticed by KU, played two years at Neosho County CC and two more at the University of Oklahoma, where his two Sooner teams combined for a 53-14 record and two NCAA Tournament berths. “I might not root for Kansas when they play Oklahoma, but on most nights (he cheers for KU),” Newton added, laughing. Newton, who played for Kelvin Sampson at OU, now has even more of a reason to follow the Jayhawks’ fortunes closely. One of his KCK Blue Devils players — Clay Young — on Wednesday was added to the Jayhawk

there’s one thing he has learned during his college coaching career, it’s that even the best-laid plans sometimes run off course. “One thing is certain,” he said. “It’s not gonna go as planned. You know that for a fact. So now you kind of start getting ready

for some things not to happen the way that you want them to happen, and you kind of think ahead to how you’re gonna react to those things.” So much of what Likens and company hope to get accomplished at Kansas depends upon one position. And although he will keep a close eye on how his offensive line holds up, how well his receivers get open and how often his tight ends execute their assignments, that

He was named to the Wrestling USA Magazine AllAmerica team during his senior year. “Reece was awesome,” LHS wrestling coach Pat Naughton said. “He had this magnetism about him when he was going places, and kids just flocked to him for all of the right reasons. He was a hard worker, in and out of the classroom, especially on the mat.” One of the things that made Wright-Conklin unique was his ability to connect with younger kids, Naughton said. Lawrence senior wrestler Alan Clothier jumped i n t o WrightConklin’s a r m s when he Wright-Conklin won a state championship in 2013. Wright-Conklin traveled to the state tournament each year after graduating to cheer on his former LHS teammates and help coach them. Clothier, who has known Wright-Conklin’s family throughout his life, heard he died when a friend pulled him out of class. “I really looked up to him because I saw that he had three state championships, and I wanted to do it and be him,” Clothier said. “Everybody at Lawrence High was like, ‘Oh, Reece is so good.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, he is a good wrestler, and I want to be like him. I want to go to college.’” Wright-Conklin was described as “really funny” by his former wrestling teammates and coaches, but he was able to connect with a variety of students, whether or not they knew anything about wrestling. “He got along with everybody,” Naughton said. “He was just one of those unique guys that really didn’t have a classification like you belong with this. He transitioned into all of the groups. One thing about it, too, he kind of led by example. He was a good leader for all of our young guys.” Wright-Conklin started wrestling when coach Randy Streeter put a flier in his backpack in elementary school about joining the Sunflower Kids Wrestling club, Naughton said. It was a perfect match for WrightConklin, who was known for his strong technique and upper-body strength. He also played football for two seasons at LHS before deciding to focus solely on wrestling. “He was one of my favorite kids,” LHS football coach Dirk Wedd said. “He was just the ultimate team person. Very unselfish and cared about others. That’s why it hurts so bad.”
