Courtroom remodeling will require dockets to be shuffled

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

Douglas County District Court Administrator Linda Koester-Vogelsang will add juggler to her job description for the next few years.

A $750,000 phased remod-

eling of the six courtrooms of the Douglas County District Court, Pro Tem Court and jury assembly room is slated to start later this year. The work on the rooms in the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St., will be scheduled so that only one courtroom is closed for re-

“

modeling at a time.

“Our dockets are too full to do more than one courtroom at a time,” Koester-Vogelsang said. “It needs to be done. We want this to be the best for the people of Douglas County.”

KDOT aims to finish east leg of SLT before Thanksgiving

THE SOUTH LAWRENCE TRAFFICWAY, LEFT, is expected to open before Thanksgiving, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation.

and Native American groups vigorously opposed construction of the road through the Baker Wetlands, an agreement was reached to mitigate effects to the area. As part of that agreement, KDOT installed barrier walls along the trafficway.

The walls separate the South Lawrence Trafficway and the wetlands and will minimize noise from traffic. Walls are installed near the intersection of 31st and Louisiana streets and along the same stretch between the freeway and 31st Street.

The multi-use path that runs near the trafficway and along the wetlands side of the wall is also waiting on some repairs before being opened. Several parts of the sidewalk have had to be redone re-

cently, with some of the most substantial work yet to occur near Haskell Avenue.

Water has been running over a segment of the sidewalk near Haskell Avenue, and Qualls said a new pipe is going to be installed and new concrete poured. She said that work will also be done before the November opening.

Once the trafficway is open, it will move existing K-10 onto a new alignment that will begin at the south junction of the U.S. 59 and K-10 interchange and reconnect with existing K-10 in east Lawrence.

used for jury trials.

That limited use will require her to constantly monitor the docket schedule to find the best and most appropriate room for trials, a task complicated because jury trials can be called off or rescheduled with little notice, KoesterVogelsang said.

Many of the courtrooms haven’t undergone any improvements since the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center opened in the 1970s, Koester-Vogelsang said.

“People seemed to have been smaller 40 years ago,” she said. “Police officers with their equipment belts can’t sit in our seats. We need larger seating to accommodate them. We’ll work with an architect to make sure everything is done right.”

Improvements to all rooms will include carpet replacement, new paint and “looping.” That last process is the installation of a system of wires in the floor that transmit clear signals to hearing aids.

Ceilings will be replaced in all courtrooms, and a number are slated to get new furniture and ADA-compliant jury boxes, Koester-Vogelsang

said. Audio systems are to be installed that will allow court recorders, but not the jury, to hear conferences at the bench, and the Douglas County Sustainability Department will help with the selection of energy-efficient lighting, she said.

Signal CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

The traffic light was much discussed this spring as KDOT considered with local jurisdictions four options for the Kansas Highway 10/Kasold Road intersection. KDOT eventually selected an option that will restrict turns to and from Kasold Road and East 1259 Road at the interchange to right-on, right-off.

When the Kasold Road intersection options were being considered in May, KDOT said the only option that would increase traffic at the U.S. 59 intersection enough to require the immediate placement of a traffic signal at CR 458 was the closing of the Kasold Road intersection. However, KDOT officials said the department would continue to monitor the U.S. 59 intersection for the need of a signal.

In a letter to Douglas County Administrator Craig Weinaug, KDOT

.

engineer Steve Baalman writes the highway department now intends to install the signal. KDOT is also requesting county participation “since this project will provide some benefit to county residents that use that intersection.” The $170,000 requested would be a one-time commitment, and the county would not be asked to help with the signal’s ongoing maintenance costs, Baalman states in the letter.

At the meeting, commissioners will also consider awarding an $83,000 contract to Shafer, Kline & Warren to do a feasibility study on a plan to redevelop 90 acres the Delaware Tribe owns northeast of the Kansas Turnpike’s interchange in North Lawrence. Shafer, Kline & Warren was one of three firms responding to the Douglas County Sustainability Office’s request for proposals concerning the survey.

The County Commission approved in May a $67,775 Douglas County Natural and Cultural

LAWRENCE • STATE Heritage Grant for a feasibility study on the property’s development plan.

The study will consider the feasibility of the Oklahoma-based Delaware Tribe’s plan to develop the property as an agricultural experimental station, which would produce for sale high-value crops and heritage seeds the Delaware and other Native American tribes used for food and medicinal plants. The property would also serve as an educational and job training site and a base for nutritional outreach. The contract also calls for Shafer, Kline & Warren to design the proposed elements of the plan and “market analyses of the revenuegenerating elements of the project,” County Sustainability Director Eileen Horn stated in a report to commissioners.

The Douglas County Commission meets at 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St. For a complete agenda, visit douglascountyks.org.

According to the Grinter Farms Facebook page, there was a possibility the farm would open back up to visitors later Monday. Some who posted on a thread on the page said the farm did reopen.

Some motorists were stuck in traffic for two hours during the afternoon traffic crunch, Sherley said.

The Grinters cleared several acres of land for parking to help alleviate people parking along Stillwell Road this year.

With it being a holiday weekend with ideal weather, Sherley said it was the perfect recipe for so many visitors.

Vola said she and her two friends enjoyed the drive from Olathe to the Kansas Turnpike and to the exit at Leavenworth County. That’s when the day started to go bad for Vola, who decided to take in the sunflower field after seeing a television feature on it.

“It’s crazy,” she said.

At about 1:30 p.m., Darrell Lamer sat in his idling car on the highway about two miles west of the sunflower field. He said he lived on Woodend Road in rural Leavenworth County near the sunflower field.

“It’s never been anything like this before,” he said. “They’ve been doing

a lot of advertising this year. They need to have sheriff officers up there directing traffic.”

The popularity of the sunflower field, Labor Day traffic and closure of Kansas Highway 32 between Lawrence and Leavenworth County Road 1 for construction all contributed to the snarl, Lamer said. There was no way emergency vehicles could respond to an incident in the area in a timely manner, he said.

“If there was a fire at my house, it would be gone,” he said.

Opinion

Lawrence Journal-World l LJWorld.com l Tuesday, September 6, 2016

EDITORIALS

Revenue key The election is likely to hinge on Gov. Sam Brownback’s tax policies — and for good reason.

T

ax revenue trends in the state of Kansas continue to register alarms.

Last week, the state announced that revenues for August came in more than $10 million short of projections, the third consecutive month that revenues have been $10 million or more short of estimates.

That’s not a good sign for the state budget, and it’s a terrible trend for many Republican lawmakers running for re-election.

Remember back in May when Gov. Sam Brownback finished the 2016 legislative session by ordering $97 million in cuts in order to balance the budget for this fiscal year? State officials estimated at that time that if revenues came in as projected, the state would end the 2017 fiscal year with a balance of $93 million in the general fund.

Just 90 days after those cuts were announced, revenues are already $57 million short of projections, meaning that $93 million general fund balance has been whittled down to $35 million.

If the state’s budget problems weren’t daunting enough, the state faces a school finance lawsuit that could cost as much as $500 million a year in additional funding for K-12 education. The Kansas Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in that case Sept.

21, and a ruling is expected in early 2017.

Kansas Secretary of Revenue Nick Jordan blamed August’s shortfall on lagging corporate, sales and use tax receipts.

Jordan, who has served as secretary of revenue throughout Brownback’s almost six-year tenure, has become adept at identifying reasons for the state’s monthly tax revenue shortfalls. Sometimes it’s sluggish national trends or unanticipated tax refunds. One month it was layoffs in the aviation and agriculture industries. On multiple occasions it has been lagging sales tax collections and corporate income tax shortfalls.

What it has never been, at least not from Jordan’s perspective, is the state’s tax structure, particularly the steep income tax cuts that Brownback and the Republican leadership implemented in 2012 and doubled down on in 2013.

But where Jordan won’t go, Democrats and moderate Republicans happily will.

“This is another indication that Kansans need to speak up by voting in November to replace those legislators who have rubber stamped Sam Brownback’s irresponsible agenda,” Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley said last week after the August numbers were reported.

As the August primaries have already revealed, November’s elections are likely to hinge on the impacts of Brownback’s tax policies. That’s as it should be — lawmakers should be judged on the ideas and policies they support.

Two more revenue reports are due before the election. A lot is riding on what they reveal.

Time to change Cubans’ special status As a new wave of Cuban migrants floods Florida and Central America, nine Latin American nations have asked the Obama administration to end the U.S. special immigration privileges for Cuban refugees. And while some of these countries have dubious human rights credentials, they may be partly right.

In an Aug. 29 letter to U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, the foreign ministers of Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama and Peru expressed their “deep concern” that the United States’ so-called wet-foot, dry-foot policy is creating a regional refugee crisis.

Ecuador — which released the letter — and Nicaragua are ruled by repressive governments with little moral authority to lecture anybody about political or humanitarian issues.

But the letter should draw attention because it comes at a time when Cubans are fleeing the island in record numbers. The euphoria over the re-establishment of U.S.-Cuba diplomatic ties has faded, and many Cubans have lost faith that there will be a political opening on the island.

Others are fleeing now because they fear that the U.S. special status for Cuban refugees will be terminated after the November elections.

Andres Oppenheimer aoppenheimer@miamiherald.com

“

It’s time for all sides to end Cuba policies that are relics of the Cold War.” At least 46,000 Cuban refugees were admitted by the United States during the first 10 months of the 2016 fiscal year, almost twice the 24,000 who were allowed into the country in 2014, according to the Pew Research Center. Thousands of others have flocked to Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and other countries, hoping to make their way into U.S. territory.

Under the 1966 Cuban Adjustment Act and its 1995 revision — known as the wet-foot, dry-foot policy — Cubans are granted residency and eventually citizenship if they set foot on U.S. land. If they are caught at sea, they can be returned to Cuba.

The special U.S. status for

Cubans has been significantly abused in recent years.

Under a 1980 provision that expedites economic assistance for Cuban refugees, large numbers of Cuban refugees return to Cuba and live the good life there with U.S. taxpayers’ dollars.

Jose Miguel Vivanco, head of the Human Rights Watch advocacy group’s Americas department, told me that “Cuba is a unique case in the region, where those who challenge the government are punished harshly.

But the United States and all democratic countries already have obligations to offer protection and asylum to Cuban political refugees.”

He added that ending the special status for Cubans “would not amount to a human rights setback, as long as the United States and other democratic countries, including the nine that signed that letter, offer refuge and protection to those who are persecuted in Cuba.”

Others, such as Marcell Felipe, head of the Inspire America Foundation, support changing U.S. laws to end abuses by those who return to Cuba, but without eliminating the overall special status for Cuban refugees.

“Cuba is a special case, because everyone in Cuba who does not actively support the dictatorship is subject to repression,” Felipe

says. “If Cubans didn’t have a special U.S. immigration status, most Cubans would not qualify for U.S. asylum.”

My opinion: It’s time to revise the U.S. government’s special status for Cuban refugees. But it should be done as part of a new commitment by all countries in the region to grant asylum to Cuba’s political refugees, and to press Cuba to abide by international human rights laws.

Kerry should meet with the nine foreign ministers who signed the letter and ask them: Are you ready to accept Cuba’s political refugees? Are you ready to press Cuba to free its political prisoners, stop arresting peaceful dissidents, and respect political pluralism, as is Cuba’s duty under the Viña del Mar convention it signed in 1996?

It’s time for all sides to end Cuba policies that are relics of the Cold War. Washington should change its much-abused laws giving special status to all Cuban refugees, and Latin American countries should end their shameful silence on Cuba’s repressive dictatorship, which is at the root of Cuba’s main problems.

These are new times that require new policies by all countries.

Prevention best To the editor: In the last few years I have known two people who suffered from mental illness, one of whom ended up in jail, the other being hospitalized many times outside of Lawrence. Now Douglas County is talking $30 million for a jail expansion, with some mental health amenities included. When I think of the mental health services that could be provided for $30 million (plus the extra cost of staffing an expanded jail) I believe the informed community member would think that prevention is significantly more cost effective than waiting for a crisis with subsequent incarceration.

A residential treatment center for those who need intensive supervision and an environment where they can feel safe would do a great deal toward keeping people out of jail in the first place. In addition, such a place would relieve police officers, prosecutors and jail personnel from having to treat the mentally ill without the necessary professional training that psychiatrists, psychologists and psychiatric nurses have acquired. As we look at alternatives to incarceration in Douglas County, the need for more jail space becomes less and less necessary. Let us put money where it is truly needed; leaving the severely mentally ill to fend for themselves should no longer be an option.

Support youth at events To the editor: I can’t help but think one way we can take a step toward working on our bigger problems is by getting to know each other as a community. A great way to do that is through our school events where we can

support our youth as a community.

Sit in on an amazing choir concert at your neighborhood elementary school. Say “hi” to someone who just might be your neighbor. Enjoy watching gymnastics at the Olympics? Lawrence High and Free State both have gymnastics teams with home meets very soon (FSHS on Sept. 7). Visit the science fair to see how students are developing critical thinking. Middle school and high school tennis action (and other sports) are taking place. Enjoy the orchestra and band music from young children just learning all the way to the symphonic orchestras who epitomize hard work and a love for sharing their talents. These musicians demonstrate so many excellent values while playing beautiful music.

If you haven’t yet, please consider attending some school sports, art shows, science fairs, music and other events to celebrate the students’ hard work and to get to know your community neighbors. Look for more online at the USD 497 website. If you don’t have internet access, drop by the Lawrence Public Library.

Doing backward flips down a 4-inch beam that is 4 feet off the floor takes guts, practice, coaching and support. They can’t win Olympic medals (yet) but can be fun to watch and see what perseverance can do for you.

STATE

.

Tuesday, September 6, 2016

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

— Rep. Melissa Rooker, R-Fairway

Legislators junked such a formula last year in favor of predictable “block grants� that allow the state to better control its spending.

But other provisions represent a radical departure from past policy: stripping local districts of their power to tax while using a statewide property tax increase as a way to prevent poorer schools from falling too far behind wealthier ones.

The key issues involving the new school funding plan are:

Driving the work About 30 school superintendents, business officers and special education directors have been working on the plan for more than a year. Republicans who pushed the 2015 school funding changes through the Legislature always saw them as a two-year fix, and lawmakers expect to write a new formula next year.

The state has been in and out of school funding lawsuits for decades.

The last one, filed by four districts in 2010, is before the Kansas Supreme Court.

The justices will hear arguments Sept. 21 on whether legislators are spending enough money on schools to fulfill a duty under the state constitution to provide a suitable education for every child. “The time for muchneeded school finance reform is now,� GOP Gov. Sam Brownback said during a recent news conference in which he solicited opinions and ideas on education funding.

Break from the past The most notable feature of the administrators’ plan is how it would shift decisions about taxes from local school boards to state legislators.

Local control of schools remains a cherished idea, even as the state has asserted greater influence over funding to help poor districts.

State law allows districts to impose local property taxes to supplement their state aid.

In the name of fairness, it caps the amount at an average of $2,340 per student and provides extra money to poor districts. Critics contend the system still favors wealthy districts that can raise local taxes far more easily than poor ones. “That’s an area that we want to get away from because there are questions about equity,� said G.A. Buie, executive director of the United School Administrators of Kansas.

The administrators’ plan would impose a single statewide property tax, which, along with

state aid, would be meant to cover districts’ full operating costs.

Major objections Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, a Topeka Democrat, called the administrators’ plan a “good starting point� for a debate.

But any proposal to reduce or eliminate local districts’ power to tax would face strong opposition from Johnson County, home to affluent Kansas City suburbs and whose strong schools have attracted families for decades and fueled a post-World War II population boom that still continues, 70 years later.

Rep. Melissa Rooker, a Fairway Republican, said it’s appropriate to cap local taxes in the name of fairness, yet eliminating them is an “absolute non-starter� because local voters should have the option of raising additional funds for extra programs.

Under the administrators’ plan, local districts would have to rely solely on the Legislature to provide enough funds for

schools. “It is mind-boggling that this is coming from school officials,� she said. “I was just flabbergasted.�

It is mind-boggling that this (plan) is coming from school officials. I was just flabbergasted.�

BECOME A FAA CERTIFIED DRONE PILOT

Debate over spending Many educators argue the state is shorting its public schools on their total aid. Although Brownback and some GOP legislators strongly dispute the idea, the Republican-controlled State Board of Education has proposed phasing in an $893 million increase in aid over two years.

The administrators who drafted the plan did not set a target for overall spending. “That’s a separate conversation,� said Jim Freeman, the retired Wichita public schools chief financial officer, who presented the plan during a recent forum for educators.

Obama arrives in Laos as first sitting president to visit Topping agenda is clearing country of unexploded bombs

Special for USA TODAY VIENTIANE , LAOS This capital city, with its wide, tree-lined French colonial boulevards and old-fashioned tuk-tuk threewheeled taxis, takes its turn in the international spotlight as Barack Obama arrived late Monday to become the first sitting U.S. president to visit Laos.

The sleepy, landlocked country of 6.8 million may well be the final Asian stop during his presidency. Obama arrived here after attending the Group of 20 summit in Hangzhou, China, for a series of Asian summit meetings this week.

Obama plans to push for closer economic ties with Laos and Southeast Asia, and raise human rights abuses in the one-party communist state, which suppresses freedom of expression and the media.

The White House said unexploded ordnance will be a focus of Obama’s visit, and it has signaled a stronger financial commitment to help clear deadly bombs that litter large swaths of the countryside.

Activists dealing with the problem see the president’s visit as an opportunity to bring it to the world’s attention. “We’re hoping v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

A brewing controversy awaited President Obama as he arrived Monday because of “colorful” comments from outspoken Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte.

The firebrand Duterte warned Obama not to question him about his country’s extrajudicial killings in a war on drugs.

More than 2,000 suspected drug users and dealers have died since Duterte took office June 30.

AFP/GETTY Duterte said IMAGES Obama must Duterte not throw questions at him, or “son of a bitch, I will swear at you in that forum,” the Associated Press reported.

“Clearly, he’s a colorful guy,” Obama said Monday after the Group of 20 summit in Hangzhou, China.

The White House later announced that Obama will not meet with Duterte.

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign may be a case study in the kind of missteps that can be particularly punishing for U.S. political candidates who are women.

Just like society assumes most men are competent, the public gives women the benefit of the doubt on ethics and honesty, or a “virtue advantage,” according to a 2014 handbook titled Keys to Elected Office: The Essential Guide for Women that was updated this year. The handbook, published by the Barbara Lee Family Foundation, is based on 20 years of research on public perceptions of female candidates. When that perception is tarnished, the results for women can be devastating, the handbook warns.

In the 2016 race, both majorparty candidates are dealing with ethics issues — Clinton over her use of an email server and her relationship to donors of the Clinton Foundation and Donald Trump over lawsuits from former students and contractors. Last week, the FBI released more records about the email investigation, and The Washington Post reported that Trump paid the IRS a penalty over an illegal campaign donation.

Recent research includes a Yale School of Management study that found the public is more willing to accept a mistake by a leader in a gender-appropriate role. A New York University Stern School of Business study found women in power are seen as less trustworthy than men in the same positions, and a study in the Social Behavior and Personality journal found women’s mistakes tend to be noticed more and remembered longer.

Americans want Congress to dedicate funds to fight Zika People fear disease could go worldwide Susan Page @susanpage USA TODAY

Nearly a third of Americans say fears of the Zika virus affect travel or other plans by members of their families, a broad impact that fuels support for Congress to pass funding to curb spread of the disease in the USA. In a USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll, those surveyed by WASHINGTON

more than 3-1, 62%-19%, said Congress should approve additional funding to fight the virus rather than continue to divert funds from other programs. The Senate could vote on a $1.1 billion measure on Zika as early as Tuesday, when lawmakers return after a seven-week recess.

Senate Democrats blocked a version passed by the House because it includes provisions they said would bar funding for Planned Parenthood, which provides health care services to pregnant women and others most affected by the mosquito-borne virus. Dozens of cases of Zika, which can cause devastating birth

defects, have been diagnosed in Florida and elsewhere since Congress left town.

“It does scare me,” said Carol Fisher, 56, a nurse from Teaneck, N.J., who was among those called in the poll. “It has the potential to blow up in a worldwide problem with the way people travel. The idea of containing this to a neighborhood in Miami is just ridiculous. It’s almost like that movie Contagion, where it keeps going and going and going.” (The 2011 medical thriller tracked a mysterious and deadly disease that spread worldwide after a Minnesota woman returned from a business trip to Hong Kong.)

Anthony Fauci of the National Institutes of Health speaks about the Zika virus on Aug. 31 at Georgetown University.

The poll of 1,000 likely voters, taken Aug. 24-29, has a margin of error of +/-3 percentage points.

Last week, Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warned that the health agency is almost out of money to fight Zika’s spread. “The cupboard is bare,” Frieden told reporters.

Three in 10 Americans, including 36% of those who live in the South, the most affected region, say concern about Zika has affected travel or other plans by themselves or family members.

Both Democrats and Republicans were inclined to back additional funding to combat Zika.

Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly dies at 92 Forum she founded says she was devoted to God, family, country

Greg Toppo USA TODAY

ST. LOUIS Phyllis Schlafly, founder of the Eagle Forum who helped defeat the Equal Rights Amendment, died Monday at her St. Louis home at the age of 92.

An outspoken anti-feminist, Schlafly was an advocate of conservative causes and an early supporter of the modern religious right.

Schlafly rose to national attention in 1964 with her self-published book, A Choice Not an Echo, which became a manifesto for the far right. The book, which eventually sold 3 million copies, chronicled the history of the Republican National Convention and is credited for helping conservative Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona earn the 1964 GOP nomination.

She later helped lead efforts to defeat the proposed constitutional amendment that would have outlawed gender discrimination, galvanizing the party’s right wing.

She told The Associated Press in 2007 that perhaps her greatest legacy was the Eagle Forum, which she founded in 1972 in suburban St. Louis. “I’ve taught literally millions of people how to participate in self-government,” Schlafly said.

The Eagle Forum pushes for

low taxes, a strong military and English-only education. The group is against efforts it says are pushed by radical feminists or encroach on U.S. sovereignty, such as guest-worker visas, according to its website, which describes the Equal Rights Amendment as having had a “hidden agenda of tax-funded abortions and samesex marriages.”

The Eagle Forum has about 80,000 members, CBS News reported. As of this week, Schlafly

was still president.

The Eagle Forum called Schlafly “an iconic American leader whose love for America was surpassed only by her love of God and her family.”

“Her focus from her earliest days until her final ones was protecting the family, which she understood as the building block of life. She recognized America as the greatest political embodiment of those values.”

Clinton’s. Yet “we talk a lot more about Clinton’s honesty problem,” Dittmar said. In a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll, 61% said Trump is not honest and trustworthy, and 59% said the same of Clinton.

That’s partly because the Clintons have a “sloppy” history of dealing with their controversies that’s made them “vulnerable to the people who genuinely, sincerely and irrationally hate them,” said Gil Troy, author of The Age of Clinton: America in the 1990s. That said, he sees “a whole other thing” underpinning Clinton’s honesty challenge “that is laden with gender expectations and healthy doses of sexism.”

Jean Harris, a women and politics expert at the University of Scranton, said it’s a product of “how she’s handled things combined with the pedestal effect.”

THE ‘VIRTUE ADVANTAGE’

Women have tried to capitalize on the “virtue advantage” since the Suffragettes ran on the notion that they were inherently good.

It’s something opponents seek to undercut. “Because the cost of an ethical infraction is higher for a woman, campaigns against women candidates often use the well-worn strategy of launching negative attacks on character or values early in the campaign,” the handbook warns.

“When Donald Trump calls her ‘Crooked Hillary,’ whether folks see it as strategic or not, it is,” Dittmar said.

Karlyn Bowman, a public opinion expert at the American Enterprise Institute, said Clinton’s been in the public eye for more than two decades, so her image problems are different from average female politicians who aren’t nearly as well known. Decades of controversy — and her stubborn reluctance to talk to the media about it — fanned the narrative.

One of the first of these issues dates back to a failed real estate company called Whitewater in the 1970s that the Clintons formed with longtime friend James McDougal. Though no investigation found criminal wrongdoing, it made them appear to be part “of that clubby Arkansas community where people did favors for each other,” Troy said.

Younger voters unfamiliar with this history also are skeptical of her honesty and trustworthiness, Bowman said. “Doubts have been been there for the generations,” she said, though she allowed “there may be a double standard.”

Katie Packer, a Republican strategist who advised 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney, conducted surveys in 2014 and 2015 to identify Clinton’s potential vulnerabilities with female voters. “There was huge benefit of the doubt given to her by these women, not necessarily because there was some women’s solidarity, but because they didn’t view her as a typical politician because she was a woman,” she said. “We were demoralized by it. We thought, ‘How are we going to pierce this veil because they don’t blame her for anything?’ ”

date Donald Trump released a statement on her death, saying in part: “Phyllis Schlafly is a conservative icon who led millions to action, reshaped the conservative movement, and fearlessly battled globalism and the ‘kingmakers’ on behalf of America’s workers and families.”

Schlafly earned a bachelor of arts degree from Washington University in 1944, a masters from Radcliffe College in 1945 and a law degree from Washington University in 1978.

As momentum grew in the 1970s for the Equal Rights Amendment, Schlafly became its most outspoken critic — and was vilified by its supporters. Feminist Betty Friedan once told Schlafly, “I’d like to burn you at the stake.” She was chastised in a 1970s Doonesbury comic strip, which hung on her office wall.

“What I am defending is the real rights of women,” Schlafly said at the time. “A woman should have the right to be in the home as a wife and mother.”

Thirty-five states ratified the amendment, three short of the necessary 38.

Donald Critchlow, author of Phyllis Schlafly and Grassroots Conservatism, said the defeat of the amendment helped revive conservatism and helped pave the way for Ronald Reagan’s election in 1980.

The Clintons’ history of dealing with controversy has made them “vulnerable to the people who genuinely, sincerely and irrationally hate them,” author Gil Troy says.

There was a possibility. “There was this sense that she was so ambitious that she would do anything to get ahead,” Packer said.

“When the email thing popped up, it was a perfect opportunity to exploit the one thing we felt she was really vulnerable on.”

In the spring of 2011, when Clinton served as secretary of State, her Gallup favorability rating was 66%. That is 26 points higher than today after years of investigations over an attack in 2012 on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya; the revelation of her personal email system while at the State Department; and her 2016 presidential campaign.

Last year, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., credited GOP leaders with dramatically lowering Clinton’s numbers by creating a special Benghazi committee that uncovered her private server.

“Because the cost of an ethical infraction is higher for a woman, campaigns against women candidates often use the well-worn strategy of launching negative attacks on character or values early in the campaign.”

“Keys to Elected Office: The Essential Guide for Women”

“Any time people can paint you as being just like one of the guys, then you come crashing down to earth,” Packer said.

Clinton’s Philadelphia convention was one big choreographed testament to her trustworthiness and character. The six in 10 Americans who still say she is not honest and untrustworthy in-

cludes 24% of Democrats, 94% of Republicans and 63% of independents, according to the USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll.

HER OWN WORST ENEMY

Clinton’s image problems began when, as first lady of Arkansas, she didn’t take her husband’s name. It led to whispering suspicion among other women, Harris said.

As first lady, it was amid the controversy over Whitewater and other issues that her approval ratings went into decline. In April 1994, Clinton held a news conference to address the land deal in which she acknowledged she’d been “less understanding than I needed to be” of the public’s right to such private information and the impression it created that she was trying to cover something up.

It “is probably one of the things that I regret the most,” she said.

The 1990s marked “an unprecedented, organized, well-funded effort to dig up dirt and attack them systematically,” often on personal matters, said Tad Devine, a Democratic strategist who was a top adviser to Clinton’s primary opponent, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Clinton continued what Devine called a “heavy armor” approach, including a distrust and avoidance of the news media that extended to issues clearly in the public domain, including her health care task force. The Clintons came under fire for the firing of White House travel office staff and controversial pardons, including a couple that came after intervention attempts by her brothers, Tony and Hugh Rodham. The Clintons later returned some furniture to the White House after departing in 2001.

They showed “an inability to comprehend how they’re going to be seen and to learn from experience,” Troy said.

“They fall into the same trap where they get all self-righteous, and that leads to even more over zealousness about their privacy, which is at the heart of the email,” or the latest controversy over her private server, he said.

for a strong multiyear commitment to clearance and victim assistance,” said Titus Peachey, board chairman of Legacies of War, an educational and advocacy group on the impact of Vietnamera conflict.

Between 1964 and 1973, the U.S. conducted 580,000 bombing missions over Laos, partly as an effort to cut supply lines along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, a North Vietnamese supply chain that ran to South Vietnam.

An estimated 80 million of the baseball-sized cluster bombs —nearly a third of those dropped — failed to detonate. Less than 1% have been cleared, and more than 20,000 people have been killed or injured since the bombing ceased.

Peachey said his organization is hoping for a $25 million annual commitment from the U.S. for 10 years. “We think that would be the amount needed to really make a significant impact on the clearance task,” he said. “We think there needs to be additional funding for victim assistance.

There are about 12,000 to 15,000 surviving victims of cluster bombs and other ordnance accidents living in Laos, and many of them need lifelong services.”

During the Obama administration, the U.S. has dramatically increased funding for bomb clearance, from about $2.5 million a decade ago to $19.5 million for 2017. Thanks to the increased funds and new survey methods to uncover ordnance, the number of annual casualties has dropped significantly, from 310 in 2008 to 42 in 2015.

For Obama, the visit is also a chance to strengthen economic ties with the formerly estranged country. “Given this president’s commitment to reach out to countries with whom we’ve had complicated histories, we see this as a real opportunity to ... build a real working partnership that can benefit both of our peoples,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said ahead of the trip.

Laos also can play a strategic role in the region as a member of ASEAN, the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations, to help counter an increasingly assertive China in the region.

The visit “offers an opportunity for the U.S. leader to advance the so-called U.S. pivot to Asia” — Obama’s call for less emphasis on Europe, said Curtis S. Chin of the Milken Institute, an economic think tank based in California.

“It is clear that a Chinese presence will continue to be felt in Laos and across Southeast Asia,” he said. “It is critical that U.S. engagement also continue in the region if a rules-based international order and U.S. economic leadership are to be sustained.”

Obama: ‘Gaps of trust’ hurt Syria talks ‘Candid, blunt’ discussions come up empty as G-20 ends Hannah Gardner and Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

President Obama said Monday that negotiations between the United States and Russia to reach a peace deal in Syria are hampered by “gaps of trust.”

“We haven’t yet closed the gaps in a way where we think it would actually work,” Obama said after he met for 90 minutes with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Typically, the tone of our meetBEIJING

ings is candid, blunt, businesslike.

This was no different.”

Obama, speaking at a news conference in Hangzhou, China, at the end of the Group of 20 economic summit, said the two leaders failed to make a breakthrough for a cease-fire in the 5-year-old Syrian conflict. Obama said he instructed Secretary of State John Kerry to continue meeting with Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to work toward an agreement.

The two sides are exploring closer military ties to fight militant groups and reduce the violence but can’t agree on how to implement any pact. The delay comes as a wave of bombings Monday in government-held parts of Syria killed at least 48

people, and the Islamic State claimed responsibility.

Obama said he and Putin also discussed Ukraine and U.S. concerns over cybersecurity.

Those discussions took place as global leaders ended the G-20 summit Monday with a forceful endorsement of free trade.

In a joint statement, Obama, Chinese President Xi Jinping and the leaders of Britain, Japan, Rus-

sia and other G-20 economies pledged to boost sluggish global growth by promoting innovation and to strengthen the global financial system.

“The benefits of trade and open markets must be communicated to the wider public more effectively,” the statement said.

Obama defended the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal he wants to get Congress to approve, despite widespread political opposition. He said the G-20 leaders also discussed unfair currency practices, corruption and global tax evasion. Xi said China would set up two centers to deal with international tax evasion and corruption.

In Syria, making sense of a melange of factions, allies Oren Dorell @orendorell USA TODAY

As the United States and Russia struggle to negotiate terms of a cease-fire in Syria, the five-year civil war has unleashed such an array of fighters that some forces are both allies and enemies, depending on which groups they encounter on the battlefield.

To understand the complexities of a war involving more than a dozen militias and foreign nations, here is a rundown on the combatants, their goals, their allies and their enemies: SYRIAN GOVERNMENT

Syrian President Bashar Assad’s domestic allies include his clan of minority Alawite Muslims, other religious communities, foreign Shiite fighters backed by Iran and Russian help in the form of supplies and air support. His main fighting forces include: uSyrian Armed Forces: The Syrian army has been worn down

by five years of fighting, while the Syrian air force remains a potent force. uNational Defense Forces: This is a paramilitary organization established with Iranian support to hold and control territory. uIran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and foreign Shiite militias: They are responsible for spreading the Iranian revolution and foreign military operations. The main enemy includes Syrian opposition groups and the Islamic State.

ISLAMIC STATE

The al-Qaeda offshoot has seized territory that spans the SyrianIraqi border. Most of its revenue is generated from kidnapping, taxation and oil sales.

Its fighters include local militants and recruits from across the Arab world, Europe and elsewhere.

Its enemies include Kurdish militias, an al-Qaeda group known as the Nusra Front, a U.S.led coalition and sometimes Assad and Russia.

Syrians carry a victim after barrel bombs were dropped on the Bab al-Nairab neighborhood in Aleppo, Syria, on Saturday.

Civil war has raged for five years, involving rival world powers.

SYRIAN DEMOCRATIC FORCES

The U.S. military has stitched together an alliance of Syrian Kurdish and Arab forces to fight the Islamic State. It is led by the YPG, the Syrian arm of the Kurdish Worker’s Party (PKK) in Turkey, which both Turkey and the U.S. State Department consider a terrorist organization.

The group has worked with Russia and has maintained relations with the Syrian government, which shares some territory.

Enemies include the Islamic State, the anti-Assad Syrian opposition and Turkey, which fears

Kurds will carve out an independent enclave along the SyrianTurkish border.

SYRIAN OPPOSITION

These include perhaps hundreds of militias across Syria with ideologies that include a range of views, from nationalist democrats to hard-line Islamists. They are composed of Arabs, Sunnis, Christians, Druze and Kurds. A small number are considered terrorist groups by the State Department. They include: uNusra Front: Al-Qaeda’s Syrian franchise and rival of the Islamic State supports more

The president was asked about NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s refusal to stand for the national anthem to bring attention to racial injustice.

Obama said it was not an antiAmerican gesture and it was clear that the San Francisco 49ers player is sincere and “cares about some real, legitimate issues.”

Nusra changed its name to Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, claiming to have “disengaged” from all “external affiliations.” The group receives donations from individuals in the Persian Gulf.

Its enemies include Assad, Russia, Iran, Hezbollah, Syrian Democratic Forces and the Islamic State. uAhrar al-Sham: The hardline Salafi Sunni opposition militia works closely with the Nusra Front and the Free Syrian Army, a rebel group led by former army officers.

Allies include Turkey and Qatar.

Congress returns with just weeks to prevent government shutdown Zika funding on agenda, but progress elsewhere is unlikely Erin Kelly USA TODAY

Congress returns Tuesday from a seven-week recess that has left lawmakers with less than a month to fund the federal government and prevent a shutdown. The scramble to solve that problem will not stop Republicans from casting votes on other issues designed to register their opposition to the Obama administration.

Federal agencies from the National Park Service to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention could face closures unless lawmakers vote on a stopgap spending bill to keep the government running past September.

Lawmakers will confront a pressing problem they left behind in July: how to pay for efforts to combat the Zika virus, which is being transmitted by mosquitoes in Florida, has been linked to the death of an infant in Texas and has been declared a health emergency in Puerto Rico.

Republicans and Democrats have spent their recess blaming each other for the failure to agree on a funding bill.

“As the Zika disease spreads, Congress is eventually going to have to come to terms with it and stop politicizing the issue,” said Donald Wolfensberger, a congressional expert at the non-partisan Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars.

In the House, Republicans plan votes on several “message bills” that are almost certain to go nowhere. The House is likely to vote on whether to impeach IRS Commissioner John Koskinen over Republican allegations that he obstructed a congressional investigation into whether the IRS improperly scrutinized Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status.

Democrats and the Treasury Department have called the allegations baseless, and the Senate is unlikely to vote on the matter.

A seaplane flies over a residential area affected by forest fires along the coastline near the Spanish resort of Javea, Valencia region, Monday. More than 1,000 people were evacuated after a wildfire roared through brush surrounding a popular tourist resort on Spain's Costa Blanca.

MULTIPLE ATTACKS IN SYRIA KILL AT LEAST 48 PEOPLE

A wave of bombings in government-held parts of Syria on Monday killed at least 48 people, according to state media.

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility.

The attacks took place in Tartus, home to a Russian naval base; Homs, a central Syrian city with a large military presence; and in a western suburb of Damascus.

Two other attacks targeted Kurdish forces in the northeastern cities of Hasakeh and Qamishli, Syria’s official Sana news agency said.

Monday’s bombings occurred as President Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin failed to agree on a fresh plan to achieve peace in Syria.

— Kim Hjelmgaard N. KOREA REPORTEDLY FIRES THREE BALLISTIC MISSILES

North Korea fired three ballistic missiles into the East Sea on Monday as China hosted leaders from across the world for the G-20 summit, according to reports from the South Korean News Service and the Associated Press.

North Korea test-fired three ballistic missiles from Hwangju in the North Hwanghae province

at around 12:14 p.m. local time, Yonhap News Service and the AP reported, citing South Korea’s joint chiefs of staff. Officials did not elaborate on the range of the missiles.

Though missile and rocket tests are common in North Korea, this one occurred as world leaders gathered in the east Chinese city of Hangzhou for the G-20 summit.

— Steph Solis LOST IN SPACE PHILAE PROBE FOUND IN ‘DARK CRACK’

A space probe that European scientists lost two years ago after it crash-landed on a comet, lost battery power and got stuck in a “dark crack” has been found, the European Space Agency said Monday.

The missing Philae robot was located Friday by cameras attached to the agency’s in-orbit Rosetta spacecraft.

Images showed Philae’s distinctive box shape and two of its three legs wedged underneath a rocky overhang on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.

“This remarkable discovery comes at the end of a long, painstaking search,” said Patrick Martin, ESA’s Rosetta mission manager. “We were beginning to think that Philae would remain lost forever.”

PAUL SINGER, USA TODAY

Congress has a long list of issues and only a few weeks left. promised a vote on some kind of legislation to register GOP opposition to a $400 million cash delivery to Iran made by the Obama administration in January.

President Obama said the money was an overdue repayment to Iran of assets frozen decades ago, and there was no connection to American prisoners released by Iran the same day the payment arrived. The State

“There is so much unfinished business that directly affects the lives of the American people.

That’s what we have to get on with.”

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

Department conceded that the payment was used as “leverage” to assure the prisoners’ release.

Gun control legislation inspired by the mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando in June is unlikely to go anywhere. Supporters and opponents remain stalemated over how best to keep

guns out of the hands of potential terrorists without curtailing the rights of law-abiding gun owners.

Other major issues are unlikely to see significant progress before Congress departs for the elections in October.

The Republican-led Congress is likely to continue blocking a vote on Merrick Garland, who was nominated for the Supreme Court by President Obama after the death of Justice Antonin Scalia six months ago. No vote is likely on the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Congress has not done enough to address issues such as opioid abuse, the tainted water system of Flint, Mich., and gun violence. “There is so much unfinished business that directly affects the lives of the American people,” she said on CBS This Morning. “That’s what we have to get on with.”

After September, the House and Senate will adjourn for October and part of November, leaving only a handful of weeks after the election Nov. 8 before adjourning by their target date of Dec. 16.

“I think Congress is just trying to do the minimal amount needed to keep the government open and then get out of town without looking too bad,” Wolfensberger said.

Dear Annie: I recently started seeing this girl — “Lisa.” We met through a mutual friend — who turned out to be pretty much our only mutual friend. Our social circles couldn’t be more different. A lot of her friends are 20-somethings who don’t have to work because their parents are still supporting them. They’re into partying, staying up all night, taking drugs that enable them to stay up all night, etc. I haven’t really been able to click with any of them, even the guy friends. They don’t have much to talk about except for whatever bar they’re checking out that night.

Sometimes I meet up with them straight from work, still in my office clothes, and

they make snide comments. They wear expensive clothes and name-drop designers as if I’m supposed to be impressed, but I don’t know or care what they’re talking about. Lisa is pretty much the only one in that group who has a job, and she doesn’t do drugs or even drink much, but she enjoys going out. When I’ve tentatively brought up some of these traits to her, she says she

‘Atlanta’ not your typical comedy With the new comedy ‘‘Atlanta’’ (9 p.m., FX, TV-MA), Donald Glover (’’Community’’) gets his own show and a whole city to call his own. He stars as Earnest, a young man trying to improve his lot in life by managing the rap talents of his cousin, Alfred (Brian Tyree Henry), who performs under the name ‘‘Paper Boi.’’ The fact that Alfred does not want or think he needs Earnest’s help is just the beginning of this rather loosely structured look at a music scene and a particular slice of life in Georgia’s big city.

At its best, ‘‘Atlanta’’ features quotably cracked dialogue and narrative misdirection that make movies like ‘‘Pulp Fiction’’ so memorable. Gritty realism and the pervading presence of potential violence give way to intimate comedic moments that, in turn, evaporate into dreamlike reverie. It’s clear that the makers of ‘‘Atlanta’’ don’t want you to think of it as just another television comedy.

O Crackle, the Sony-owned ad-supported streaming service best known for Jerry Seinfeld’s ‘‘Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee,’’ launches ‘‘StartUp.’’ This ambitious new series stars Martin Freeman (’’Fargo,’’ ‘‘Sherlock,’’ ‘‘The Office’’) as a less-than-straight-arrow FBI agent out to infiltrate a band of tech innovators trying to revolutionize the world of digital currency. Unfortunately for them, their seed money comes from Miami’s drug and gang underworld. Despite its techie title, ‘‘StartUp’’ is closer to ‘‘Narcos’’ than ‘‘The Social Network.’’

O ‘‘9/11 Inside the Pentagon’’ (7 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) recalls the day of terror that killed 184.

One survivor can still barely compose herself as she recalls her departure for a staff meeting that spared her and left her colleague to die. An intelligence officer working that day in the massive building remembers hearing about a rogue aircraft bound for Washington and realizing that, from the point of view of a jet traveling 500 mph, the Pentagon made the biggest and most potent target. It took less than five minutes for him to realize that he had been correct.

Tonight’s other highlights

O ‘‘Bachelor in Paradise’’ (7

p.m., ABC, TV-14) and ‘‘Bachelor in Paradise: After Paradise’’ (8 p.m., ABC, TV-14) close up for the season.

O A cure is near on a twohour ‘‘Zoo’’ (8 p.m., CBS, TV14). This series will return for a third season next summer.

thinks her friends are funny. She admits some of them can be a little rude at times, but she always insists “they mean well.”

My friends all work and, for the most part, would prefer a movie night at someone’s house to a club.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Tuesday, Sept. 6: This year you experience a new beginning with a key friendship. If you are single, you could attract many people; however, the one you choose might be very controlling. If you are attached, the two of you bond on a deeper level and transform the nature of your relationship.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) +++ Deal with others directly.

You might sense where someone is coming from, and it could force your hand in some way. Tonight: You decide what you need.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ You naturally defer to others, especially if they are demanding and critical. Tonight: Evaluate a new piece of information.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You will go with the flow and make needed adjustments.

Emphasize day-to-day rituals. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++++ Others might not be embracing your ideas, but listen to their suggestions anyway. You are likely to hear a good idea or two. Tonight: Pretend that it is the weekend.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) +++ Deal with a personal matter first, or risk being distracted all day long. Tonight: Get some much-needed rest.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ Reach out to someone

be a scientific fact, the essence of the statement is true. The company we keep is an expression of our values.

If you don’t like this girl’s friends, then my guess is that when you get to know her better, you won’t like her. Even if you find you really do like her, there will most likely be problems, because it’s important you like the friends of the person you’re dating. If you don’t like them, you’ll come to resent it whenever she spends time with them. You’ll be unhappy; she’ll be unhappy. That’s not the stuff of a healthy, harmonious relationship. Consider moving on.

Well Commons YOUR HEALTH YOUR COMMUNITY YOUR STORY

Many treatment options are available for varicose veins, from the nonsurgical to the more invasive, depending on your circumstances.

VARICOSE VEINS

There’s much more at stake than mere vanity Shutterstock

By Amy Northrop

T

hey might look like red and blue spider webs subtly tattooed on your legs and thighs. Or they may more resemble the gnarled branches of an old tree. Regardless, those varicose veins can often be more than just unsightly; they may cause pain, swelling and medical problems.

Varicose veins develop when the valves that allow blood to flow through the veins weaken, causing blood to stop or pool in the vein. As the blood collects, the veins dilate and enlarge, turning a bluish color because of the blood pooling and deoxygenation in that area.

“The smaller, superficial veins, often called spider veins, are more visible because they’re closer to the skin’s surface,” said Dr. Dale Denning, medical director of the Lawrence Vein Center. “However, this is often just the ‘tip of the iceberg’ because larger, deeper veins

30 to 40 percent of people are affected are often feeding into these more superficial veins. It is important to treat these larger feeding veins in order to correct the problem.”

Denning has provided vein care since 2005. He is a diplomat of the American Board of Phlebology and a fellow of the American College of Surgery.

He spent 20 years as a general surgeon at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

He says that swelling or pain in the leg may also be the result of a blood clot, known as deep vein thrombosis. If this clot were to break free and travel to the heart or lungs, it could block blood flow causing a serious, medically urgent condition such as a pulmonary embolism, or even death.

There are a number of

causes of varicose veins, which affect 30 to 40 percent of the population — men and women alike.

“Heredity is one of the main risk factors for developing varicose veins,” said Denning. “However, there are a number of lifestyle changes you can make that will lower your overall risk of developing vein disease too.”

Examples include: l Maintain a healthy weight. l Eat a wellbalanced diet. l Get regular exercise — walking, jogging, dancing, or bike riding — all activities that use the leg muscles. l Don’t smoke. l Avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time.

The Lawrence Vein Center is a full-service treatment center, dedicated exclusively

to vein health. Cosmetic, nonsurgical, and minimally invasive vein treatment procedures, including sclerotherapy, VeinGogh, VenaCure EVLT™, and microphlebectomy, are available. These methods have a much shorter recovery period, less post-procedure pain, less bruising and swelling, and a lower overall risk of complications.

If you have pain, swelling or heaviness in your legs, especially to the extent that you feel your quality of life is compromised, schedule a consultation with the Lawrence Vein Center at 785-856-VEIN (8346). Or attend one of its free screening events this fall. (Free screenings are not available to Medicare and other federal health care beneficiaries.) Information is available at www.lmh.org/ veincenter.

Study looks at yoga’s ability to offset Parkinson’s symptoms

By Allie Shah Minneapolis Star Tribune

Minneapolis — It took a while to get to downward-facing dog.

First, the eight men and women at a recent class at Tarana Yoga Studio in Minneapolis engaged in “joint warm-ups,” circling their wrists three times in each direction.

Next, they carefully moved into standing poses, keeping a chair at the edge of their yoga mats to steady themselves as needed.

Finally, their bodies limber, they tilted their hips back with hands and feet planted on the mat — expertly performing the challenging downwardfacing dog pose.

The minutes ticked. No one flinched.

Held twice a week, the experimental class is part of a study being conducted by the University of Minnesota to find out if yoga is an effective tool for managing Parkinson’s disease.

Corjena Cheung, a professor at the university’s School of Nursing, said she hopes to build on her previous research examining yoga’s effects on osteoarthritis. The results of that study were so promising — increased mobility and less fear of falling — that she wanted to explore whether yoga could help with Parkinson’s, too.

Yoga is one of the leading alternative therapies used by Americans, according to a National Institutes of Health survey on alternative medicine use.

Cheung’s work would add to a growing body of science on the popular practice’s impact on Parkinson’s disease — a degenerative brain disorder involving the nerve cells responsible for voluntary movement. The condition is diagnosed in about 60,000 Americans a year.

Tremors, a shuffling walk, muscle stiffness, depression and dementia are among the symptoms.

The focus on yoga as a possible therapy for Parkinson’s stems from its gentleness and its emphasis on breathing, strength and flexibility.

A University of Kansas Medical Center study found a visible reduction in tremoring and improvement in the steadiness of gait in people who participated in yoga sessions, according to the American Parkinson Disease Association. In her osteoarthritis and yoga study, Cheung found that participants were better able to cope with their symptoms by doing yoga rather than aerobic strength exercises.

Yoga teaches them how to cope with the disease and work with what they have and build on it.”

The classes start out with slow, basic exercises done sitting, standing or lying down. Gradually, the participants build up to more difficult exercises and poses. In addition to the usual yoga props of a mat and block, there are chairs to help maintain balance and small sandbags to help control hand tremors.

“They can use the prop to help them get to where the ideal pose is for them,” Cheung said, adding that she’s heard that some of the people are now doing yoga at home, too.

Eager volunteers For this study, she recruited participants through local support groups for people with Parkinson’s. It was an easy pitch.

“People are very motivated,” she said.

There are 20 people involved in the study. Half of them were told to make no change in the way they manage their symptoms.

The others are doing yoga.

Cheung will measure their stress levels by giving them a blood test and checking for the presence of certain stress hormones.

She also will examine their motor functions, checking their range of motion, stride length, balance and gait.

Five yoga experts who had experience teaching yoga to people with physical limitations helped design the hourlong classes, which will go on for six months. Cheung said she suspects that by the end of the experiment, the results will show that yoga improves motor function and reduces stress for people with Parkinson’s.

But for now, all she knows for sure is that the participants seem to be enjoying themselves.

“The fact that yoga includes both physical as well as the breathing and relaxation piece, I think that has added benefits for people with Parkinson’s,” she said. “They are suffering from not only the physical limitations.

Bob McGonigal, 72, balanced on one leg and bent the other to form a figure 4. He held the pose, standing perfectly still.

“That’s called the ‘tree pose,’?” he said. “When we first started, I couldn’t do that.”

He, too, came to the study in search of alternative ways to manage his Parkinson’s. The Bloomington man was diagnosed in 2010 and has tremors in his arms.

Steve Knudsen, 69, of Burnsville, Minn., said he’s found that his body is more flexible after an hour of yoga. “There are a lot of possibilities with this,” he said.

Fast, friendly service!

Tired of all the hurdles?

Come see the Jayhawk Pharmacy difference, where you aren’t just a number, you’re a friend.

Exercising optimism Although the study won’t wrap up until December, the participants have reached their own conclusions about yoga.

Jerri Smith is encouraged. The 58-year-old St. Paul, Minn., woman is new to yoga but not to Parkinson’s. She was diagnosed six years ago.

She said she agreed to participate in the study because she wanted to see whether yoga would help her symptoms.

“It’s good to calm my mind down,” she said.

“Also, I have a lot of [muscle] cramps and spasms.

My back is really stiff.”

After a session last week, she reported that her muscles no longer feel so tight.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Reinforcements Booker could provide boost for KU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas commitment Marcus Garrett took his official visit to Lawrence over the weekend and in addition to playing a little 21 and twoon-two with a few current members of the KU squad at the basketball court inside McCarthy Hall, the Dallas native played a small role in helping the KU coaches recruit more talent.

Joined Garrett for one day of his visit by four-star Orlando prospect Chaundee Brown, an undecided 6-foot-5 shooting guard who also was on his official visit, Garrett and Brown got to experience life in the shoes of a Jayhawk at the same time.

“He liked it a lot,” Garrett said of Brown in a phone interview with the JournalWorld. “He was surprised that a lot of people on campus knew his name and wanted pictures with him and that kind of stuff. I just told him, ‘You were only here a couple days but if you come here it’ll probably be like that every day.’”

Garrett, who said he liked being in the position to help sell his future school to Brown, said he answered whatever questions Brown asked but left most of that to the Jayhawks who already have played for Bill Self.

“He was asking me why I committed here, what I liked about the coaches and the program,” Garrett said of Brown. “I just told him it’s a great basketball program and it really doesn’t get any better.”

Asked if he and Brown talked about what was next in Brown’s recruitment, Garrett said he thought Brown still would take his other official visits to Maryland, Florida and possibly Wake Forest. But he also said he got the feel that KU was in good shape.

“I’m thinking he’s coming,” Garrett boasted.

As for Garrett, the 6-4 combo guard from Skyline High who committed to Kansas in early August spent most of his time hanging out with Devonte’ Graham, Malik Newman and Lagerald Vick. He, himself, had a few questions about what it was like to play ball at KU, but reserved most of his inquiries for his extensive one-on-one time with the KU coaches.

“It was great just being around those guys,” Garrett said of the current Jayhawks. “They said coach Self cares a lot about his

KANSAS WIDE RECEIVER JEREMIAH BOOKER CUTS UPFIELD DURING KU’s Fan Appreciation Day practice Aug. 20 at Memorial Stadium.

For all the touchdowns and highlight plays the Kansas football team’s passing attack put together in a season-opening blowout, the Jayhawks might get a boost from another target Saturday against Ohio.

KU actually played slightly shorthanded while walloping Rhode Island, 55-6. Wouldbe starting receiver Jeremiah Booker couldn’t join in on the fun, head coach David Beaty revealed, due to injury.

“Jeremiah, man. I’ll tell you what. You’re talkin’ about a hard-workin’ dude. He really is,” Beaty said Monday morning on the Big 12 coaches media teleconference. “I know that he was crushed not getting on the field. But, you know, he had kind of a high ankle sprain that he was dealing with and he wasn’t completely ready yet, and hopefully he’ll be back ready to go full tilt this week.”

As a true freshman in 2015, Booker played in eight games, started six and caught 23 passes for 228 yards.

Beaty and his staff expect the 6-foot-2, 195-pound receiver from College Station, Texas, to play a greater role in KU’s offense as a sophomore, and the head coach hopes that will begin this week — assuming Booker gets cleared to play versus Ohio (1:30 p.m. kickoff Saturday at Memorial Stadium).

“We think he will be. He

Royals top Twins, seek late surge

Minneapolis (ap) — Coming off a disappointing homestand, and on the edge of the AL wild-card race, the Kansas City Royals can’t afford to let too many more opportunities slip away.

The defending World Series champions regained their winning touch Monday, despite Brian Dozier hitting three home runs for > HOOPS, 3D Minnesota. The Royals got

Jarrod Dyson had three hits and scored three times for Kansas City, which won for the second time in six games.

“We put ourselves in a tough position, but we still believe that we can pull this thing off,” Hosmer said.

Kansas City started the day four games out of the second wild-card spot.

The Royals went 2-4 in their last six games with New York and Detroit, with each of the losses a close one.

“We could be talking about a major run right here.

We quite possibly could have been 6-0 at home,” manager Ned Yost said.

“We still feel that we’re not out of this thing by any stretch of the imagination.”

RORY MCILROY TEES OFF ON THE THIRD HOLE during the final round of the Deutsche Bank Championhip on Monday in Norton, Mass.

McIlroy rallies for Deutsche Bank victory Norton, Mass. — A new putting coach. A new putter. The old Rory McIlroy.

McIlroy rallied from six shots behind Monday and closed with a 6-under 65 for a two-shot victory in the Deutsche Bank Championship, the 20th victory of his career worldwide and his first this year on the PGA Tour.

“Things can turn around very quickly in this game,” McIlroy said.

In his case, it only took 69 holes. McIlroy, who missed the cut in the PGA Championship and was an afterthought last week when the FedEx Cup playoffs began, already was 4-overpar just three holes into this tournament at the TPC Boston. He managed to get back to even par at the end of the opening round, and he was on his way.

He shot 67 on Saturday, 66 on Sunday and then raced by a faltering Paul Casey on Labor Day in strong wind from remnants of Hermine.

McIlroy closed out the front nine with three straight birdies to take the lead for the first time. He regained the lead with a 20-foot birdie putt on No. 12, and then drilled a fairway metal into the wind and over the hazard on the par-5 18th to set up one last birdie from the bunker.

Casey, who started the final round with a three-shot lead in his bid for his first PGA Tour victory since 2009, closed with a 73. Casey had a 60-foot eagle putt on the final hole that would have forced a playoff. It went 8 feet by and he missed the meaningless birdie putt.

The only consolation for Casey was his runner-up finish moved him from No. 59 to No. 10 in the FedEx Cup, assuring a spot in the Tour Championship for the first time since 2010.

PGA champion Jimmy Walker closed with a 70 to finish third.

The top 70 advance to the BMW Championship, which starts Thursday at Crooked Stick in Indiana.

Former University of Kansas golfer Gary Woodland shot a 67 and tied for 15th at 8-under 276, seven strokes behind McIlroy. Woodland is 21st in the FedEx Cup standings.

McIlroy, who finished at 15-under 269, moves back to No. 3 in the world.

He fell out of the “Big 3” conversation earlier this year when Dustin Johnson won the U.S. Open, Henrik Stenson won the British Open, and McIlroy kept sliding, largely because of his putting. His only victory was the Irish Open in May, and when he missed the cut in the PGA Championship, he sought out popular British putting coach Phil Kenyon. McIlroy also switched putters last week at Bethpage Black, though he was at the bottom of the pack in putting.

Not this week.

He didn’t need to make everything in the final round, with his driving and short game setting up three early birdies. But he made an 18-foot birdie on the par-3 eighth, and followed that with a 10-footer on the ninth to make the turn in 31.

As the wind picked up, no one could stay with him.

Walker was within two of the lead when his drive bounced into the woods right of the 10th

By David Wharton

A hint of defiance marked Bob Stoops’ voice as he spoke from the podium.

His third-ranked Oklahoma Sooners had just lost their season opener, upset by No. 15 Houston, and Stoops kept that trademark white visor tugged down tightly over his eyes.

“I’ve still got a strong belief in our team,” he said. “We’ve still got a chance for a great year.”

Coaches are supposed to talk like that but, in this case, he might be right.

College football is venturing into new territory — or at least testing the waters — with marquee programs motivated to schedule quality opponents, rather than pushovers, in the early going.

This opening weekend ranked among the best in recent memory, featuring a slew of games between top 25 and power conference elite.

It helps that the fledgling College Football Playoff leaves some wiggle room for teams to lose in nonconference play and scramble back for a shot at the national championship.

A few days ago — before UCLA suffered an overtime defeat at Texas A&M — coach Jim Mora mused about a landscape where powerhouses aren’t afraid to square off in September.

“I think it’s beautiful,” Mora said. “You talk about generating interest in college football right off the bat.”

Not that everyone has bought into this outlook.

Among top 10 schools, sixthranked Ohio State opened against Bowling Green and No. 7 Michigan crushed an outmatched — if not travel-weary — Hawaii.

The downside to starting against a big-time opponent is obvious. As Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher put it: “You don’t get a chance to grow into the season.”

But slotting UC Davis or Northwestern State into the schedule never had much appeal to fans or broadcasters, both of whom are more eager to pay for high-profile games.

The playoff system allows for a stumble out of the gate if only because teams don’t have to make it all the way back to No. 1 — they merely have to be among the top four.

The selection committee has emphasized strength of schedule when it comes time to choose those teams, so Stoops wasn’t the only losing coach who saw reason to hope Saturday.

After his fifth-ranked Louisiana State fell to unranked but dangerous Wisconsin, coach Les Miles talked about motivating players to rebound: “I think they are just going to have to come back to work and find a resiliency.”

“Quality loss” might be the key phrase. LSU and its 16-14 defeat at Lambeau Field will look a whole lot better to the committee in December if Wisconsin keeps winning.

Casey threw away two shots early in the round with a poor chip on the par-5 second hole and a three-putt bogey on the fifth. He missed a par putt from 5 feet on the 11th that put him two shots behind, and he fell back again with another three-putt bogey on the 14th.

McIlroy now has 12 victories on the PGA Tour, and he takes plenty of momentum to Crooked Stick.

Wait earns defensive honor After leading the Kansas volleyball team to three wins in the KU Invitational last weekend, senior libero Cassie Wait was selected as the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week on Monday.

Wait averaged 6.50 digs per set in KU’s wins against Chicago State, Maryland and Arkansas.

She had 31 digs in the five-set match against Arkansas, the second time in her career she’s recorded 30-plus digs.

With a total of 65 digs throughout the weekend, Wait moved up to second on KU’s all-time digs list with 1,478 career digs, passing Melissa Manda (2007-10).

The Jayhawks (6-0), who remain ranked at a program-best No. 4 in the latest AVCA coaches poll, will travel to Creighton at 7 p.m. Thursday.

TENNIS

Venus Williams falls at Open New York — Venus Williams went from down and out to a point from victory, then back again. In the end, she couldn’t quite get past a woman a dozen years younger and never before at this stage of a Grand Slam tournament.

Williams failed to convert a match point and lost 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (3) to 10th-seeded Karolina Pliskova of the Czech Republic in the fourth round of the U.S. Open on Monday, despite vociferous support from the Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd down the stretch.

“I really played the perfect point there,” the sixth-seeded Williams said about her chance to end things while up 5-4 in the third set, and Pliskova serving at 30-40, “and she managed to stay alive.”

At 36, Williams would have been the oldest woman to reach the quarterfinals at any major since Martina Navratilova was 37 at Wimbledon in 1994.

Williams made it that far at Flushing Meadows a year ago, before losing to her younger sister Serena. This time, they had been on course for an all-in-the-family showdown in the semifinals; Serena followed Venus in Ashe and beat Yaroslava Shvedova 6-2, 6-3 in the fourth round for her 308th Grand Slam match victory, breaking a tie with Roger Federer for most in the Open era, which dates to 1968.

Chiefs’ Charles might miss opener Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Chiefs’ ground game could look quite similar to the way it finished last season when they play the San Diego Chargers in their opener on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium.

That’s because Chiefs coach Andy Reid acknowledged Monday that running back Jamaal Charles is “a stretch” to play after surgery to repair the ACL in his right knee. Charles has been practicing for weeks but did not participate in any preseason games as he works his way back to game speed.

“Jamaal has to keep working through this,” Reid said. “We’ll see how it goes.”

The four-time Pro Bowl selection tore the ligament in a loss to Chicago in Week 5, and had surgery shortly thereafter. He was back on the field for a portion of the Chiefs’ mandatory June minicamp, and that raised hopes Charles would be available for the opener against San Diego.

But with several capable backups, the Chiefs appear in no rush to get him on the field.

“I am full-go right now. I’m out here, I’m practicing, and I can’t be happier about where I’m at,” Charles said last week. “It’s all going to come when it comes. It’s just practice right now and I’m happy to be out

Dozier has eight home runs in seven games and 38 this season, the most by a Twins player since Harmon Killebrew hit 41 in 1970. Dozier’s 10 home runs against Kansas City this year are the most ever by a Royals opponent.

“It would be better to be on the winning side of it,” Dozier said.

Kennedy struggled with command, allowing four earned runs in 5 1/3 innings but is 4-0 in his past five starts.

Morales hit a threerun drive off Jose Berrios (2-5) in the fifth for a 5-4 lead. Hosmer, who had four RBIs, hit a three-run homer in the eighth.

Berrios was called up from Triple-A to start.

The Royals tagged him for five earned runs on nine hits in five innings.

Considered the Twins’ top pitching prospect, Berrios allowed 21 earned runs in 22 innings over five August starts before being sent down.

Dozier has hit a majors-most 24 home runs since the All-Star break.

He struck out five times Sunday. “We talk about young players and the challenge of playing September baseball for the first time,” said manager Paul Molitor. “We’ll try to keep them fresh as we can.”

Up next Dillon Gee (6-7, 4.33) is scheduled to start for Kansas City tonight against Ervin Santana (710, 3.54). Gee was 2-2 with a 3.94 ERA in five August starts and pitched an inning of relief Friday. Santana is 3-1 in his last five starts with a 3.09 ERA.

I could be sitting on the couch watching TV.” The Chiefs kept Knile Davis as their third running back behind Charcandrick West and Spencer Ware when rosters were trimmed over the weekend, giving them insurance if Charles is unavailable.

West ran for 634 yards and four touchdowns.

Ware ran for 403 yards and six touchdowns. Both were impressive enough that they earned new contracts in the offseason.

The big question was whether Davis would stick. He’s had problems

with fumbles throughout his career, and had been passed over by West and Ware last season. But he had a solid training camp, and his ability to return kicks made him a bonus for special teams.

“At the end of the day, I think Knile had a really good camp,” said general manager John Dorsey, who drafted him in the third round three years ago. “He earned himself a roster spot.”

In other news, Reid said Phillip Gaines will start at cornerback opposite 2015 Defensive Rookie of the Year Marcus Peters. Gaines is coming off his own torn ACL, but has been back on the field for a while, and the thirdyear pro at least brings a

modicum of experience to a youthful bunch of defensive backs.

Of the Chiefs’ six cornerbacks, none has been in the league more than two years.

“I’m confident in the guys, but it’s a matter of them doing it,” Reid said.

“We have to see it in games and see how they do, but they’re surely capable of doing a nice job in there.”

Reid also confirmed that pass rusher Tamba Hali and safety Eric Berry will be available against San Diego, even though neither of the veterans participated in a preseason game.

Hali had surgery on his balky knees in the offseason, and the Chiefs in-

tend to treat him with kid gloves all season. Without star linebacker Justin Houston, recovering from his own knee surgery, the Chiefs will rely on the 32-year-old Hali to provide some kind of pressure on the quarterback.

Meanwhile, Berry missed most of training camp after negotiations on a long-term contract broke down and he refused to sign his franchise tender. The All-Pro has only been with the team about a week.

“We’ll get them in there. We know we have guys that can spot them if needed,” Reid said. “I don’t think Tamba will play the full load. We’ll rotate Tamba.”

was close,” Beaty said of Booker trying to play in the opener. “He’s a big part of what we want to do offensively and we didn’t want to take any chances on that thing getting any worse — and we were in a position where we could do that.”

Indeed, KU’s two-quarterback system racked up 399 passing yards without Booker. Sophomore Tyler Patrick, who started in his place, caught five passes for 51 yards, including a 20-yard touchdown from redshirt junior Montell Cozart in the third quarter.

As a team, the Jayhawks totaled six touchdown receptions — Cozart threw three, sophomore Ryan Willis passed for two scores and redshirt freshman Carter Stanley add-

The chance to spend quality time with the coaching staff played a big role in why Garrett chose to visit last week-

More lineup updates Like Booker, Beaty expects senior linebacker Marcquis Roberts and sophomore defensive tackle D.J. Williams back for Week 2 after missing the opener. The coach didn’t state the reason Roberts and Williams — both projected starters — didn’t play in KU’s first game.

Building on a win While Beaty and his assistant coaches obviously were thrilled to get the season started off right, the head coach said one challenge for the rest of the week would be focusing on weaknesses exposed in KU’s first victory.

“You know, sometimes when you win things kind of get glazed over, and as coaches we guard highly against that,” Beaty said.

Garrett will be back for Late Night, but only as an unofficial visitor eager to soak up the scene.

“I just knew there were gonna be a lot of people

at Late Night and I wanted a little more interaction with the coaches,” Garrett said.

Garrett was joined on his visit by his uncle and AAU coach, Matthew Watts. The two stayed at The Oread, which Garrett dubbed, “real nice,” and also attended the KU football victory over Rhode Island.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Indians’ streak halted The Associated Press

American League Astros 6, Indians 2 Cleveland — Rookie Alex Bregman continued his hot hitting with a tworun homer in the third inning, and Houston ended Cleveland’s six-game winning streak Monday night.

Bregman has hit all seven of his homers and driven in 22 runs over his last 19 games for the Astros, who remain two games out of the second wild-card spot in the AL. Mike Fiers (10-6) allowed two runs in five innings and defeated the Indians for the second time this season.

The Indians took struggling right-hander Josh Tomlin out of the rotation last week, forcing them to go with eight pitchers Monday in what amounted to a bullpen game for the AL Central leaders.

Mike Clevinger (2-2) allowed a run in the first and was pulled after 1 2/3 innings.

Jimenez (6-11) struck out six and walked one.

He retired 25 of 26 — the lone baserunner coming on a fourth-inning walk — after giving up Logan Morrison’s three-run homer in the first.
