A storm, a journey, a parade 10 years after Katrina, transplanted family still finds shelter in Lawrence By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson
When Hurricane Katrina hit the nation’s southern coastline 10 years ago this week, musicians Mike West, his wife and bandmate Katie Euliss and their two children were on tour in Florida. With initial reports trickling in slowly and short of any hard information, West recalls, he and his family originally planned on making their way back to their home in New Orleans. Soon, however, news reports confirmed their fears, West says, as he and his family recognized a shot of their Lower

Currently there are two main options for a Kasold Drive construction project slated to begin sometime next year, said Lawrence City Engineer David
Engineers recommend lane reduction Cronin. The work involves a complete overhaul of the road stretching from Eighth Street south to 14th Street. “The two options are to reconstruct the street as we have typically done with a five-lane section,” Cronin said. “Another option, what we’re calling the ‘Complete Street Option,’ reduces the five lanes to three, including the center turn lane.”

for several federal safety grants, the city would save around $1 million with that choice, he added. Before any action can be taken or before any ground can be broken, planners need direction from the city, Cronin said. While the issue is due to be addressed by city commissioners, it did not appear on the agenda for their Aug. 25 meeting. If commissioners choose to keep the road structured as it is, city engineers would recommend installing a traffic signal at the intersection of Harvard and Kasold roads, Cronin said. The Complete Street Option would involve installing a roundabout at that same intersection. Both options would include a bike lane for cyclists, said Chris Tilden, director of Community Health at the LawrenceDouglas County Health Department. However, the Complete Street Option would allow more room for cyclists. “There will be a several-foot-wide buffer between the lane of traffic and the bike lane,” he said. “Generally we have a stripe but not a wider buffer. It certainly creates greater comfort among the cyclists, in particular the people who are less experienced. The Complete Street Option would also make
travel safer for pedestrians along the stretch, Cronin said. “There’s a school crossing at the intersection of Kasold and Harvard, and crossing the street with five lanes and a signal, you’re crossing 65 feet of pavement,” he said. “With the Complete Street Option you’re crossing about 24 feet total and you have a median. We feel that’s a safer option at that intersection.” While the Complete Street Option would likely make that stretch of Kasold Drive safer, both Cronin and Tilden said they’ve heard concerns about the lane reductions negatively affecting travel times or access for emergency vehicles such as fire trucks or ambulances. Cronin said with current and future traffic projections, the potential lane reductions should neither increase travel times nor impede any emergency responders. The roundabout will keep traffic moving at a steady pace, and the center turn lane will provide enough extra space for any emergency vehicle that may need to cross the stretch in a hurry, he said. Tilden also said that his research has shown similar lane reductions in cities across the country drastically cut down the number of crashes. Those reductions have been particularly effective for roadways like Kasold Drive with an average daily volume of fewer than 25,000 cars.

It was time to look at other options. “We were on tour all through the month or so after the hurricane, then we realized we didn’t have anywhere to go back to,” West recalls. “And a friend of ours in Wichita called us and said, ‘Why don’t you come up to Kansas and give it a go here?’” Taking their friend up on the offer, the family couch-surfed in Wichita for about a month, then decided to search for something a bit more permanent, a bit better fitting. On a whim, West decided to drive east and check out Lawrence. “We had worked up here before and the band was sort of wellliked in the area. It was a viable place for us to make a living,” West says. “We didn’t know any people here or anything. We came here as a shot in the dark.” And the payoff was better than anybody could have imagined, he adds. “People were just so good to us. People we didn’t know,” West remembers. “We went into a neighborhood,
didn’t know anybody there, and they were bringing us pie, beautifully old fashioned things. It was just way more than we expected. We were shellshocked.” Now the family has grown to the couple plus four children, and they’ve long since settled in. West and Euliss continue to make music, and in 2007 they even started a Mardi Gras parade to bring a bit of their old home to Lawrence. Each February, West and his family call up their friends, dress up in their silliest outfits and march up and down Massachusetts Street, entering businesses and picking up more participants along the way. That parade continues to this day, with dozens of participants each year. Thinking back on the hurricane and his family’s transition into Lawrence, West says, they don’t like to occupy themselves with past tragedies. Rather, they give thanks for what’s happened and look to the future. “We don’t dwell on it,” he says. “We’ve got 10 years of living behind us. Many wonderful things have happened. We’re just very grateful for that.”
L awrence J ournal -W orld Those statistics could mean a much-needed improvement for the intersection of Kasold and Harvard roads, which Tilden called dangerous. “It doesn’t really affect average traffic flow, but it does reduce the excessive speeders along the roadways,” he said. “Most studies have shown a pretty significant reduction of crashes, pretty close to 50 percent.” Amanda Albrecht, manager at Tad’s Pizzeria, 1410 Kasold Drive, said she’s not concerned about a lane reduction negatively affecting the business as much as the construction itself. “We have kind of limited entrances to this little strip mall,” Albrecht said. “So I think the act of construction might be more of a hindrance than the actual reduction.” Another alternative to reducing the number of lanes on the road might be to reduce the speed limits, Albrecht added. Cronin said until commissioners give planners further direction on which option to choose it’s not clear how long the construction could take. If the project begins early enough in 2016 it’s feasible to complete the work entirely in that year, he said. Otherwise it’s possible to split the construction between 2016 and 2017. More information on the project can be found online at kasolddrive. com. “All the judges are right in front of you,” he said. “They ask questions and expect your full attention. You can’t just put your head down and make drinks.” Buhler, who moved from Lawrence to attend culinary school in Arizona, currently works as a bartender in New York and has been doing competitions for five years. The top six competitors in World Class will move on to the final challenge, in which each bartender has 24 hours to create a pop-up bar that the judges will visit along with 300 guests. “The bartender will work the bar for four hours, and the best one wins,” Buhler said. The winner becomes the World Class ambassador for the next year, traveling for guest bartender shifts and promoting the competition.

Athletics may be the obvious go-to, but they can be a substantial time (and monetary) commitment for both parents and students. Teacher-sponsored school clubs — with the convenience of being at school and of no or nominal cost — are an evolving and eclectic mix of activities.

Lawsuits blocked in hospital deaths Chillicothe, Mo. (ap) — Relatives are outraged after the Missouri Supreme Court decided wrongful death litigation can’t go forward against a northwest Missouri hospital where a nurse is accused of intentionally killing patients more than a decade ago. The judges cited statute-of-limitations issues in this month’s 4-3 ruling, which shields Hedrick Medical Center in Chillicothe from civil liability. Among the frustrated relatives is David Gann, who said he didn’t sue within the state’s threeyear statute of limitations on wrongful death cases because hospital officials
had told him and other families that the deaths resulted from natural causes. Eight years had passed since his 82-yearold father died before lawyers told him there were suspicions that patients had been killed. “How would you come up with a wrongful-death suit if you didn’t know anything was wrong?� he asked. Gann is part of civil cases that claim nine deaths and 18 medical emergencies were linked to a respiratory therapist who worked four months at Hedrick. Suits allege the employee intentionally poisoned patients with injections of insulin,
a paralyzing drug called succinylcholine or some other substance, causing them to “code blue� and in some cases die. The plaintiffs also claimed hospital administrators concealed her actions. Trial judges originally ruled for the hospital. But an appeals court panel found that because of the alleged concealment, the statute of limitations did not begin to run until later. Saint Luke’s Health System, which acquired the Chillicothe hospital after the alleged poisonings and is a defendant in the lawsuits, has said no proof exists that killings took place.

Chick-fil-A to open its doors Wednesday
M
y doctor already has prescribed the handcuffs, the chains and the shock collar. I guess he thinks it really wouldn’t be a good idea for me to try to win a year’s worth of free Chick-fil-A as part of the fast food chain’s grand opening in Lawrence. But maybe the battery in your shock collar is running low. If so, I’ve got a date for Chick-fil-A’s Lawrence opening. The company plans to open its store on South Iowa Street on Wednesday, a spokeswoman for the restaurant’s PR

company told me. Like it does in all of its markets, Chick-fil-A will host a giveaway where the first 100 people in line when the doors open at 6 a.m. Wednesday will receive one free Chick-fil-A meal
per week for a year. My understanding is that in many markets, lines start to form about 24 hours in advance, and the parking lot of the restaurant looks a bit like a tailgate with tents, grills and chants of “wait ‘till basketball season.” (Maybe that last one is just a local tradition with tailgates.) In case you have forgotten, the new Chickfil-A is located in the parking lot of the shopping center that houses Dick’s Sporting Goods at 27th and Iowa streets. If you have forgotten what Chick-fil-A is, ask
the doctor to turn the collar down one notch. Regardless, the restaurant bills itself as the “home of the original chicken sandwich.” The menu includes several versions of a chicken sandwich, chicken strips, chicken wraps, chicken salads, and a host of side items and ice cream desserts. The restaurant is part of a national chain, but the franchises are independently owned and operated. According to the company’s website, the Lawrence store is operated by Denise Martinek. According

Long-distance couple needs long-term solution Dear Annie: I’m a middle-aged gay guy living in Florida. My partner of six years lives in Boston. He’s a wonderful man, and we’d like to marry and live together someday. Here’s the problem: He doesn’t want to move to Florida, and I’m a bit hesitant about moving to Boston. My partner has lived in Boston his entire life. His job has good benefits. But if I move there, it would be a hardship unless we lived together, since I’m on disability. He’d be stuck paying most of the rent. I also hate big-city traffic and crowds. And while I don’t mind cold weather, I cannot deal with snow. I have told my partner that my town has a booming economy and a lot of places are hiring. How can I convince him to move to Florida? Or

should I move to Boston? — Florida Guy Dear Florida: Pressuring someone to move to a location where they don’t want to be is never a good idea. Although, since winters in Boston generally include a tremendous amount of snow, your partner may decide on his own that he’d like to move to a warmer locale. Otherwise, please don’t insist on it. There is always the possibility that moving in together would
PBS pitches whale of an evening OK, it’s not the Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethon. But it is live. And it very much depends on who shows up to “perform.” I’m talking about “Big Blue Live” (7 p.m., PBS, check local listings), a nature program broadcast like a sporting event. But don’t go looking for one broadcaster with one camera crew. “Blue” will offer any number of live feeds chronicling the diversity of marine life in and around Monterey Bay, California. Viewers can enjoy “Blue” as live television or follow the feeds on pbs.org/big-blue-live, where hosts Dr. M Sanjayan and Liz Bonnin will live-tweet and engage with participants, answering questions and comments as they arrive. Speaking of arriving, be on the lookout for whales, seals, otters, sharks and other finned creatures in this broadcasting hybrid, a combination of a whale-watching cruise, a computer nature-cam and a Reddit thread. A collaboration between PBS and the BBC, “Big Blue Live” will air over three nights this week.
If TV dramas last long enough, they get to compete with their own repeats in syndication. Starting today, CBS dramas “Elementary” and “Person of Interest” will begin airing in earnest on WGN America. Viewers will have plenty of chances to catch one or both of the series in the coming days. Tonight, WGN will air a sixhour helping of “Elementary” (6 p.m.). Tomorrow night, it’s three hours of “Person of Interest” (6 p.m.), followed by a three-peat of “Elementary.” Look for marathons of both series on Labor Day, as they join “Blue Bloods,” another CBS favorite, on the WGN schedule.
“Big Kitchens” (9 and 9:30 p.m., FYI) debuts with a profile of the San Antonio restaurant Big Lou’s, where they serve a pie more than 5 feet in diameter and burgers said to be 15 times the size of a Big Mac. I’m curious about the dimensions of their napkins, not to mention their clientele.
Tonight’s other highlights
First round coverage of U.S. Open tennis (6 p.m., ESPN2).
The top six face elimination on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox).
Bay is put under the microscope on “Switched at Birth” (7 p.m., ABC Family).
The Green Bay Packers host the Philadelphia Eagles in preseason NFL action (7 p.m., NFL).
A cruise ship may harbor rockets on “Scorpion” (8 p.m., CBS).
April’s friends worry about her spendthrift ways on “Chasing Life” (8 p.m., ABC Family).
have a negative effect. Some relationships do better long-distance. Don’t be afraid to mention your concerns and talk about them in practical, honest terms. Does he have any interest in moving to Florida later? Can you wait? We hope you can work out a compromise, but please understand that what you have now could be the best you get. Dear Annie: We have become a society with a beggar’s mentality. While driving through our small town, I approached a red light. There stood people with buckets asking for money to help send their kids’ class to Honduras. This is not the first time I have noticed such begging. I’ve seen kids ask for help to send the dance team to regionals, or to help the senior class have a great prom.

Good reminder Volunteer board members play a critical role in overseeing nonprofit organizations.
T
he scurrying heard around Lawrence after the board of Just Food discovered that about $61,000 in state and federal payroll taxes had gone unpaid was the sound of nonprofit board members across the city checking with their executive directors and board treasurers to make sure their tax payments were up to date. That’s a good thing. Too often, dedicated people join nonprofit boards without fully understanding the responsibility of being a board member. They support the mission of the organization. They are flattered to be asked to serve. They may have even been recruited by someone who told them that the board would require a minimal time commitment. When an organization has a strong and experienced executive director, board members feel comfortable letting that person handle all the organizational “details” — budgets, taxes, wages, employee policies, etc. That works unless or until something goes awry, as it apparently did at Just Food. Then board members may be surprised to learn that the buck stops with them, not the person they hired to run the agency. The story conveyed to the Journal-World by an expert on nonprofit leadership about the board of a small charity whose board members were forced to sell their cars and take out second mortgages on their homes to pay an IRS debt is bound to get the attention of local board members. Hopefully, the experience of Just Food and its board won’t put a damper on local residents’ willingness to serve on nonprofit boards. Committed board members obviously are essential to the operation of important local agencies. However, board members must recognize their responsibility to fully engage with the agencies they oversee. It’s also important to assemble a group of board members who provide different areas of expertise. Not every board member needs to be a financial expert, but everyone needs to understand the organization’s basic financial dealings. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Recognize that it’s better to be an attentive member of one board than a marginal member of three or four. Just Food is a good agency that is working through some difficult problems. It’s probably hard for those board members to see anything positive in their current situation, but one possible silver lining is the fact that their experience is serving as a reminder to other local boards of the responsibilities of their jobs.

Killing Iran deal would hurt U.S., Israel Tens of millions of advertising dollars have been shelled out by conservatives and pro-Israel groups that want to kill the Iran deal. Their efforts are likely to fail. It looks as if President Barack Obama will rally enough Senate Democrats to sustain his veto should legislators vote down the agreement. But here’s what is so disturbing about the kill-thedeal campaign: It harms America’s security and Israel’s. It muddies the debate, and often whips up hysteria, like the video put out by the foundation of John Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, which shows an American family being incinerated by an Iranian bomb. If the critics (including Israeli leaders) really want to offset the deal’s weak points, they should pursue a very different course. First, they need to be honest about the consequences of scuttling the accord. Right now, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, along with conservative lobbying groups, claims the goal of rejecting the current accord is to renegotiate the agreement. This is not in the cards. Anyone who believes otherwise should listen to Brent Scowcroft, the brilliant national security adviser to Presidents Gerald Ford and George H.W. Bush. “There is no credible alternative were Congress to prevent U.S. participation in the nuclear deal,” Scowcroft wrote last week in The Washington Post. “If we walk away, we walk away alone. We would lose all leverage over Iran’s nuclear activities. The international sanctions re-

If the critics of the deal really wanted to strengthen it, they would be pressing the administration to offset its weaknesses, not trying to kill it.” gime would dissolve.” Were the deal to collapse, none of its 10- to 15-year restrictions on Iran’s program would come into play. Tehran would be free to pursue its nuclear program, build more advanced centrifuges, accumulate more highly enriched uranium and restart its Arak plutonium reactor. The ayatollahs would be headed for “breakout capacity” (the accumulation of enough fissile material to make a bomb). At that point, war hawks would be agitating for bombing Iranian facilities. But as Scowcroft notes, “no member of Congress should be under the illusion that another U.S. invasion of the Middle East would be helpful.” Even if the United States joined Israel in striking Iranian nuclear targets, security experts estimate that this would set Iran’s program back only three to five years. If Washington undertook such a course after abandoning the Iran deal without testing its implementation,
it would have no Western allies. Hawks who dismiss such dangers should pay attention to recent leaks in the Israeli press about how Israel backed off plans to attack Iranian nuclear sites in 2011 after top security officials in Netanyahu’s cabinet got cold feet. Apparently, they feared large-scale civilian casualties if Tehran unleashed its Lebanese Hezbollah proxies, with their thousands of long-range missiles aimed at Israeli cities. So despite Netanyahu’s rhetoric, Israeli leaders privately understand that a strike to prevent an Iranian bomb must come only as a last resort. Yet to abandon the Iran deal before it gets off the ground would put the United States and Israel on course for such a strike and at odds with the Europeans, Russians, and Chinese, who were all involved in negotiating the deal. This brings us to the second point: If the critics of the deal really wanted to strengthen it, they would be pressing the administration to offset its weaknesses, not trying to kill it. “The question of whether the deal is good or bad depends on what we will do from now on,” I was told by Ami Ayalon, the former head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s domestic intelligence service. Yes, indeed. The critics are correct to worry about weaknesses in the verification provisions of the accord. Just about everyone expects Iran to cheat, so the question is how to buttress verification beyond the terms of the deal. Ayalon said, “Intelligencesharing is key.” He believes U.S., Israeli, and European intelligence agencies should
“cooperate and share our resources on a daily basis. This is the way to provide what the deal is lacking.” Others stress the need for close cooperation with, and providing additional resources for, the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N. atomic watchdog that will carry out inspections. There are plenty of other useful suggestions being put forward by U.S. and Israeli experts on how to supplement the deal — without scuttling it. These ideas apply to worries about what will happen after key provisions of the accord expire in 10 to 15 years, when Iran will be free to build advanced centrifuges and increase its supply of enriched uranium. Some have proposed that Obama should rule out, now, Iran’s producing highly enriched uranium after the 10to 15-year period, since there is no peaceful reason for it to do so. Others argue that the president should clarify that an Iranian sprint to a bomb in the future would trigger a U.S. strike. Plenty of productive critics argue, rightly, that this deal requires Obama to take a tougher stand against Iranian aggression in the region, lest Tehran think the accord gives it a free pass to misbehave. The point here is that there is ample room for strengthening the deal if critics are concerned about Israeli security rather than election sound bites. “To kill the deal is to kill American leadership in the region and to do a great damage to Israel’s position,” said Ayalon. Amen. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial-board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Kasold configuration To the editor: The proposed Kasold redesign includes a roundabout. I’m given the blanket assurance that roundabouts are safe. That statement seems to make some unwarranted assumptions: 1. Pedestrians will be able to see gaps in the traffic and cross the lane quickly. 2. Cars will stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk. 3. Roundabout safety benefits both cars and cyclists equally. To respond to each of these points: 1. Pedestrians who are visually impaired may not be able to adequately see traffic gaps. Slow pedestrians may not be able to cross the lane quickly. 2. The assumption that cars will stop for pedestrians entering the crosswalk isn’t supported by Federal Highway Safety Administration research that found motorists yielded to pedestrians in roundabout crosswalks 19 percent of the time on average. That’s only one in five cars yielding to pedestrians entering or in roundabout crosswalks. 3. Florida Department of Transportation research shows bicyclists and cars do not receive equal traffic benefits from roundabouts. Accident rates for cyclists who “take the lane” in roundabouts is 15 times higher than either car or pedestrian accident rates. Some newer roundabout designs now include bicycle exit-to-pedestriancrosswalk features. The blanket statement “roundabouts are safe” is too broad. It’s more accurate to say newer designs are safer
than the older designs for some users. Many pedestrians use the sidewalk along Kasold. I don’t think Kasold is a good place for a roundabout. I agree with the Journal-World Aug. 23 editorial that the proposed street reconfiguration isn’t well thought out. Pat Moore, Lawrence
Role models? To the editor: I would like to applaud Jack Ozegovic and Richard Heckler for their insightful views expressed in the Public Forum section of the Aug. 25 Journal-World. In Kansas, we currently have a Republican governor and Legislature who have a penchant for expressing Christian values while making war on the poor and hungry, the disabled, the homeless, voting rights, public education, Planned Parenthood, unions, a cleaner environment, democracy, the arts, numerous social agencies (the lists goes on ad infinitum). “Where exactly, does one find Jesus in this scenario?” asks Mr. Ozegovic. Where indeed? Meanwhile, Gov. Brownback and his right-wing cronies continue to goose-step to the tune of the Koch brothers and the American Legislative Exchange Council (funded by the Koch brothers, among other rightwing organizations). My questions to you, Gov. Brownback, and your Republican-packed Legislature are: “What kind of role models are you
for your children and, for that matter, all the children of Kansas, when your party motto appears to be ‘hurrah for the rich and to hell with the disadvantaged’? Have you no shame?” Rodd Hedlund, Lawrence
Trump bullying To the editor: There are 17 Republicans this year vying for president, each trying to convince us they alone are qualified, competent and capable of being the leader of the free world. Donald Trump, the leader of this “pack,” has distinguished himself with his pomposity, arrogance and condescending behavior towards his fellow candidates, viciously attacking them, criticizing and personally belittling them every chance afforded. Surprisingly, the reaction of all these Republican “candidates” seems to be sit back, remain silent and meekly accept Trump’s personal attacks and bullying tirades against them. They seem more concerned about political correctness than having the guts to stand up against Trump, which makes them all appear pathetically fragile and total “wusses.” Is this who we are looking for as our next president? Is this who we are? If one can’t even stand up to America’s bully, Trump, what happens when Putin, the Russian bully, calls you out in front of the world? Just saying. Curtis D. Bennett, Lawrence

President Obama’s three-day trip to Alaska this week will literally change the map of the nation’s 49th state. The 20,237-foot Mount McKinley — the tallest mountain in North America — has been renamed Denali, as it was known by Alaska Natives before it was renamed for President McKinley. The mountain has been known as Denali in Alaska since 1975. Under an order signed by Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, the Denali name will also take effect for all federal usage and, therefore, on all official maps. The order was signed Friday, but the White House asked that it be announced Monday as part of Obama’s trip to Alaska to discuss climate change. WASHINGTON

Europe orders summit over migrant crisis Pope the latest voice on the issue as death toll mounts John Bacon @jmbacon USA TODAY
Pope Francis offered a special prayer Sunday for 71 people found dead in a truck in Austria as Hungary announced the arrest of a fifth suspect in the case that again has highlighted Europe’s growing migrant crisis. Also Sunday, European ministers announced a September summit to grapple with the issue. The pope, joined in the Vatican’s St. Peter’s Square by the Cardinal Christoph Schönborn of Vienna, prayed for all migrants around the globe fleeing persecution or social and economic problems. He singled out the migrants who apparently suffocated in a refrigerated truck found parked Thursday on a highway linking Vienna and Budapest. “We entrust each of them to the mercy of God,” Francis said. In Budapest, Hungarian police said a Bulgarian man was the fifth person detained in the truck tragedy. A day earlier, a Hungarian court ordered three Bulgarians and one Afghan held for a month pending further investigation into the deaths of 59 men, eight women and four children. Hans Peter Doskozil, police chief in Burgenland, Austria, said a travel document found among the dead indicated the migrants were Syrians. The scramble of people from Africa and the Middle East has overwhelmed parts of Europe

The Italian coast guard said about 1,600 migrants had been rescued in the Mediterranean and brought to Italy over the weekend, showing the influx of people remained strong. At least 2,500 migrants have died since January, most drowning in the Mediterranean. On Sunday, German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere, France’s Bernard Cazeneuve and Britain’s Theresa May called for a European immigration summit aimed at a unified policy on asylum. The European Union later that day set a summit for Sept. 14. The three ministers also pledged to support a system for registering African refugees fleeing to Greece and Italy. The countries also want a list of “safe” countries drawn up, freeing up funds to aid those in real need, the ministers said.

A camper at Wonder Lake Campground looks at Mount McKinley in Alaska’s Denali National Park.
Denali, “the great one” in the Athabaskan language, was the original name. European Americans renamed it Densmore’s Mountain in the 19th century and, later, Mount McKinley to boost the presidential candidacy of Republican William McKinley. As Jewell noted in her order, “President McKinley never visited, nor did he have any significant historical connection to, the mountain or to Alaska.” The action breaks a 40-year impasse. Alaska has been petitioning for a name change since 1975, but a bipartisan effort by Ohio’s congressional delegation has blocked the effort by introducing bills requiring it to be named after McKinley, born in Niles, Ohio, and buried in Canton. For years, just introducing the bills was enough to block a name change. That’s because the United States Board on Geographic Names has a long-standing policy of not making name changes under consideration by Congress.
Clinton’s poll numbers may be better than some think Other Dems have struggled in August Heidi Przybyla
@HeidiPrzybyla USA TODAY
August can be the cruelest month of the year for Democratic presidential candidates. Just ask Hillary Clinton. The Democratic presidential front-runner’s favorable rating is down to 39% in a recent Quinnipiac poll, from as high as 48% earlier this year. A Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll released Saturday showed
her lead over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders down to seven points in the state that hosts the first caucus early next year. It’s a month that’s been unkind to other Democrats. In August a year before his re-election, President Obama’s approval rating stood at 40%, the low point of his presidency, according to Gallup; in the same month in 1995 Bill Clinton was at 46%, 12 points lower than shortly after he was re-elected. Much of the handwringing in the Democratic Party is over the 61% of Americans who now say Clinton is not honest and trustworthy. It’s evidence of the dam-

age done by a drumbeat of summertime stories about whether she sent and received classified material over her private email server as secretary of State.
“It’s important that she manage this. But it’s way too early to be talking about death knells,” GOP pollster David Winston said. “It’s quite a testimony to the fact that trustworthiness is not the only dimension in which voters think about a presidential candidate,” said Evans Witt, a non-partisan pollster and chief executive of Princeton Survey Research Associates International, noting as well how long it still is until the 2016 general election. It’s a long view of the former first lady’s polling data that explains why it’ll take far more adversity before Clinton and her allies sense real danger. As the
email controversy drags on, her unfavorable ratings could dial further upward. Much of the decline in Clinton’s favorability comes from people who would never vote for her anyway — Republicans and GOP-leaning voters who identify as independent, Witt says. What may matter most is how Clinton ranks relative to her Republican competitors, who’ve yet to face the same intensity of scrutiny. Right now, she’s still either ahead of or within the margin of error vis-a-vis Donald Trump, Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio, three of the GOP’s top performing candidates.

‘Anchor baby’ babble: A waste of time Alan Gomez
@alangomez USA TODAY
MIAMI For the past few weeks, we’ve watched Republican presidential candidates argue about the 147-year-old practice of granting U.S. citizenship to people born in this country. GOP front-runner Donald Trump, who has made opposition to undocumented immigration a hallmark of his campaign, got the birthright citizenship debate started when he called for its elimination, splitting the GOP field in half. Some support Trump, arguing that immigrants are taking advantage of the custom by giving birth to “anchor babies” — children who could eventually help their parents get citizenship. Others argue that it’s a timehonored American practice that should endure. Watching the back and forth, I’m left thinking that it’s all a colossal waste of time. Understand, I’m not choosing sides here. There is unquestionably an entire industry in China designed to help pregnant women get visas to come to the U.S. to give birth. On the other hand, data from the Pew Research Center show that the vast majority of undocumented immigrants who give birth in the U.S. — more than 90% — arrived in the country more than two years before giving birth. The reason this has been such a useless exercise is that no matter what Trump or others say, changing birthright citizenship anytime soon is nearly impossible. Let’s look at the options. First, some opponents of the

GOP front-runner Donald Trump has called for the elimination of birthright citizenship. practice have called for a change to the Constitution. Birthright citizenship was established by the 14th Amendment, which was passed in 1868 to ensure that recently freed slaves would become full citizens. Simply proposing a new amendment requires two-thirds majorities in both chambers of Congress or approval from a convention called by two-thirds of the state legislatures. Ratification would then require approval from three-quarters of the nation’s statehouses. That incredibly high threshold helps explain why only one amendment to the Constitution has been ratified in my lifetime, and that one — the 27th, which forbids members of Congress from immediately increasing their salaries — took 202 years to gain
approval. Throw in the very polarized state of Congress, and we can assume this isn’t going to happen. There’s also the possibility of challenging the interpretation of the amendment in court. That’s one option Trump and others have laid out, arguing that we are simply misinterpreting the wording of the amendment. They point to a clause in the amendment that states people must be born in the U.S. and be “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” to receive citizenship. They say undocumented immigrants don’t fall within the jurisdiction of the U.S. government, so their children shouldn’t benefit from it. The problem is that longtime opponents of illegal immigration have been trying for quite a while to figure out a way to challenge the interpreta-
tion in court — with no success. Because nobody can show that they’ve been directly harmed by the child of undocumented immigrants becoming U.S. citizens, opponents of the practice have not been able to establish legal standing in any U.S. court. “If there had been a way to challenge the practice (in court), we would’ve thought of it a few decades ago,” says Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a group that advocates lower levels of immigration and opposes birthright citizenship. Finally, there’s the possibility of passing a new law to bar birthright citizenship. Such a bill could pass the GOP-controlled House. However, with Republicans six votes shy of a filibusterproof, 60-vote majority in the
Senate, passage is unlikely. That means Republicans would need to get that bill through the House, pick up six more Senate seats in 2016 and win back the White House with one of the candidates who supports ending birthright citizenship to avoid a veto. Even if all that happened, the law would immediately encounter a barrage of lawsuits and head straight into a lengthy legal battle that would likely end up before the Supreme Court. That’s it. There are no other options. Trump and others who oppose birthright citizenship couldn’t blow it away simply by issuing a decree. So why are we still talking about this instead of trying to figure out how a president and Congress could actually change our immigration laws to improve what’s widely regarded as a broken system? There are serious discussions to be had about the state of our border: Do we need more more fencing, manpower and technology, or an entirely new strategy? There are plenty of people who fault the current approach, from employers who say they need to import more workers to Americans who claim they’re unfairly being pushed out of jobs by cheaper foreign labor. There are valid questions about sanctuary cities, the treatment of immigrants in federal detention centers and our country’s ability to track who’s coming and going through our ports of entry. Yet here we are, debating something that gets people riled up, something that generates plenty of heat and headlines, but has nearly zero chance of coming to pass. I guess it truly is election season. Gomez is a Miami-based reporter for USA TODAY who covers immigration
Investigators seek motive in slaying of Texas deputy Sheriff links shooting to backlash over recent killings Peter Eisler
@byPeterEisler USA TODAY
Investigators continued to search for a motive Sunday behind the gunning down of a Houston area sheriff’s deputy, apparently by a man who had multiple encounters with law enforcement — but none with the officer he is charged with killing. The suspect in the case, Shannon J. Miles, was arrested Saturday and charged with capital murder. He will likely be arraigned Monday. Miles is accused of fatally shooting Deputy Darren Goforth, a 10-year veteran with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, in the back late Friday. Goforth, 47, was filling his car at a Chevron gas station in the Texas county at the time of the attack. A makeshift memorial with balloons and flowers has popped up at the site.
The case comes amid several highly publicized shooting deaths of police officers in recent months. It marks the 23rd case this year in which a law enforcement officer was killed by non-accidental gunfire, according to data collected by the Officer Down Memorial Page. Last year, a total of 47 officers were killed by non-accidental gunfire. Miles, 30, had a history of previous arrests, beginning with a 2005 conviction of criminal mischief, giving false information to police and resisting arrest, the Associated Press reported. In 2006, he was convicted of disorderly conduct with a firearm. He was convicted of evading arrest in 2007, and his most recent conviction came in 2009 for again resisting arrest. However, Sheriff Ron Hickman said there was no indication that Miles had any previous encounters with Goforth. Speaking at a Saturday news conference, Hickman called the shooting “unprovoked” and said police had found no evidence of any rationale for the attack. “The working motive for this at this point is absolute

madness,” he said. “This is just a cold-blooded execution, so how do you protect against that?” Goforth was married with two children. His wife, Kathleen, said he was a man “you wanted for a friend, colleague, and a neighbor.” Hickman linked the shooting to a national backlash over several recent killings of unarmed black people by police officers. Goforth was white and Miles is black. At his news conference Saturday, Hickman said the shooting was related to “very dangerous national rhetoric” that has surfaced since the shooting of an unarmed black man by a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo., more than a year ago. Demonstrations occurred in the Houston area after Sandra Bland, a black, 28-year-old Chicago woman, was taken into custody after a traffic stop in nearby Waller County and subsequently found hanged in her jail cell last month. The death was ruled a suicide, but Bland’s family disputes the finding. Hickman suggested the public dialogue over policing and race relations has grown too heated
IN BRIEF SLAIN TV JOURNALISTS’ BOSS URGES HELP FOR MENTALLY ILL
The manager of two TV journalists slain during a live broadcast last week urged Americans to “speak directly to anger” and help those whose mental illness is “a destructive force” that threatens communities. “Anger eats at you, and the results we saw Wednesday can be catastrophic,” said WDBJ-TV General Manager Jeff Marks during a memorial service held in Roanoke, Va., for reporter Alison Parker, 24, and photographer Adam Ward, 27. The pair died Wednesday after a former reporter at the station, Vester Flanagan, ambushed them during a live shot near Roanoke. Flanagan killed himself hours later as police chased him about 200 miles northeast of the shootings. At Sunday’s service, Marks said he found himself “angry at the miscreant,” without naming Flanagan. But he said he was also angry at the USA’s mental health system, as well as its easy access to weapons. Americans, he said, must “embrace mental illness, just as we do with cancer or ALS or heart disease. Mental illness
and may have had a role in Goforth’s shooting. “When rhetoric ramps up to the point where cold-blooded assassination has happened, this rhetoric has gotten out of control,” he said. Goforth’s death comes a week after the unprovoked shooting of a state trooper in Louisiana. In that case, Kevin Daigle, 54, is accused of killing Senior Trooper Steven Vincent, 43, with a sawedoff shotgun blast after the trooper pulled him over for a traffic stop near near Bell City. Both the suspect and the trooper were white. The 23 non-accidental shooting deaths of police officers through August translates into a nationwide rate of about 2.9 such killings a month this year, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page. In 2014, with 47 fatal shootings of police officers, the rate was about 3.9 a month. At the suburban Houston gas station where Goforth was shot, a makeshift memorial of balloons, flowers and signs of support continued to grow. Contributing: Jessica Estepa

NATION/WORLD Alaska company to ship water to Calif. But infrastructure, cost might make it too hard to deliver Doyle Rice
@usatodayweather USA TODAY
An Alaska company is planning to be the first to ship massive amounts of fresh water to drought-plagued California, potentially as much as 10 million gallons a month. “We are prepared to deliver bulk water now, and we are currently working with customers who hope to be able to take delivery by the end of the year,” Alaska
Bulk Water CEO Terry Trapp said in an email. Trapp, who used to run a bottled water company, would perform the feat by shipping the water on a tanker. The water would be taken from the Blue Lake in Sitka, where the company has rights to up to 9 billion gallons of “some of the most pure water on Earth,” he said. California’s drought is now in its fourth year, and 97% of the state is experiencing dry conditions, sparking water shortages and huge wildfires. Even though it’s been unusually hot and dry this year in Alaska — which is suffering one of its worst wildfire seasons on record — there’s plenty of water in Sitka, Trapp said.
“We are currently working with customers who hope to be able to take delivery by the end of the year.” Terry Trapp, CEO, Alaska Bulk Water
“Sitka resides in a temperate rainforest and has not had any problems with drought,” he said. Sitka receives about 100 inches of rainfall per year. The hang-ups? Finding available, affordable ships and developing the infrastructure to offload
the water on the other end. “Alaska Bulk Water is working with several shipping companies to help provide vessels for transporting water to its customers,” Trapp said. “We have met with many of the municipalities and industries in California, and many of them would like to have our Alaska water.” Water experts in California are skeptical, not necessarily because of the idea but as a result of the cost. Ideas like this “are technologically feasible but economically unreasonable,” said Peter Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute, a global water think tank in Oakland. He lumps Trapp’s idea in

with others such as shipping water in pipes from the Great Lakes, large-scale “mining” of groundwater far underneath the Mojave Desert, or towing icebergs from the Arctic. “There are no shortage of people with ideas about how to ship water around with no economic savvy,” he said. Other somewhat realistic options already deemed extraordinarily expensive, such as the desalination of ocean water, would still be far cheaper than bringing water by ship from Alaska to California, Gleick said. But Trapp points out that “this is a new industry, not unlike the development of infrastructure in the oil industry in its early days.”

his French city is long hailed as the gastronomy capital of the world, blessed with Michelinstarred restaurants, celebrity chefs and top culinary schools where people learn to appreciate the finest delicacies since childhood. But the notoriously food-fussy Parisians have now developed an appetite for an unlikely culinary offering — food trucks selling gourmet burgers, tacos and pulled pork — to the chagrin of French officials, who reluctantly began to sanction them. It’s more than a fad. “Food trucks are a new culinary trend and must get real recognition as part of French gastronomy,” Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said. Authorities this year gave the OK to a select number of food trucks to trade regularly at 40 designated areas of Paris for one year starting in July. The successful 56 trucks were chosen from 158 applications, based on quality, respect for the environment and the potential to create jobs. That’s good news for the hungry customers of Californian Kristin Frederick, 34, credited with starting the trend here. Four years ago, the graduate of the prestigious culinary school Ferrandi in Paris began selling gourmet burgers — such as the “Bleu” with Fourme d’Ambert blue cheese, caramelized onions and port wine sauce — from her Camion Qui Fume (Smoking Truck), inspired by the foodtruck scene in Los Angeles. “I knew I wanted to do a food truck, but I had never cooked a burger in a professional setting,” she said. “And at the time, there was no restaurant specialized in gourmet burgers in Paris.” At the time, municipal laws restricted such food trucks to special events, such as concerts, fairs, street markets and privately owned spaces. That made truck
BÜGELSKI
Food trucks, such as Bügelski, inspired by North American delis, are becoming popular in Paris. owners rely on social media and food bloggers to advertise their next stop to the growing crowd of curious Parisian street-food fans. Despite strict regulations that effectively deterred any competition for sit-down restaurants, and the snobbery toward street food, Frederick found lines of people waiting patiently whenever she could open for business. “At first I thought maybe I would sell 30 or 40 burgers a day, but it just exploded. It was insane,” she recalled. “We got a reputation for waiting for hours for a burger because at the time I was alone in the truck, and there were a 150 people in front of me.” The runaway success of Frederick’s truck didn’t go unnoticed. It was followed in 2012 by La Cantine California, the brainchild of San Franciscan Jordan Feilders who introduced Parisians to tacos and enchiladas, and later by a wave of French entrepreneurs. “When I saw the first food trucks in Paris I said, it’s time to do it,” said Cyril Dedieu, 33, owner of Bügelski, a food truck in-

spired by the delicatessens in New York and Montreal. Dedieu’s first customers in Courbevoie, northeast of Paris, didn’t understand pastrami. Most had never heard of it, so they opted for chicken on a bagel. “One day I pretended we had run out of chicken because of a supply problem,” he recalled. “Some regular customers (tried) the pastrami and liked it so much they have kept ordering it.” Several other food trucks have
appeared since, selling such artisanal street food as mozzarella salads, pulled pork sandwiches, fish and chips, Vietnamese bánh mì and Venezuelan arepas. Food trucks were not unheard of here — pizza trucks ply the Riviera, while vans serving fries are common near the Belgian border. But until July, they could make only fleeting stops in the capital. Now, half of Paris’ 20 arrondissements have provided spaces for food trucks. Officials said they will review the plan within a year. The outer districts of Paris were the first to catch on to the street-food craze. The business district of La Défense is a case in point. “There’s a café where I go often, but I know it’s always there. Here you get the chance to try something different,” said office worker Marcela Lopez, 29, while waiting in line at Aji Dulce, a truck that specializes in Venezuelan street food. “The other day there was a Thai food truck. This is something so open-minded and innovative.”

Sault Ste. Marie lock shutdown stalls supplies Todd Spangler Detroit Free Press
It’s seldom that one of the locks at Sault Ste. Marie has to be taken out of commission in the middle of a shipping season — and rarer still that it has to be drained for repairs. But when an interruption at the Soo Locks doubles from 10 to 20 days as it did this summer, it causes deep concern. All of the ships had to be rerouted through the only lock capable of handling the largest vessels at a time when as much as 9 million metric tons of freight passes through a month. Add to that an unscheduled outage of the only other working lock, the Poe, and the argument is all but made for many why a long-sought new lock is needed, and now. The locks are a vital choke point between the iron ore mines of northern Michigan and Minnesota on Lake Superior, and the steel mills dotted along the lower Lakes. And they were brought to a standstill for an hour as a result of the shutdowns.

NEWS MONEY SPORTS WHAT YOU LIFE SHOULD LEARN AUTOS FROM THE STOCK MARKET’S TRAVEL SELL-OFF
Matt Krantz | USA TODAY
Stock market corrections make investors poorer. But they should also make them tougher and smarter. Learning from big sell-offs can pay off in the future. What a sell-off it was. The Standard & Poor’s 500 entered into a correction this week and fell as much as 12.4% from the market’s high to the closing low on Tuesday. It was the first time investors have been subjected to a correction since 2011. Investors watched as nearly $2 trillion in value was erased from the values of S&P 500 companies in just days. Stocks are racing back — narrowing the losses from the high to 6.7%, but still leaving investors to wonder if the pain is over. One thing’s for sure: Investors got a refresher course on lessons about investing in good times and bad, including:

Armed drones legal in N.D. Police can use Tasers, tear gas from the sky Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY
FRANCISCO Criminals in North Dakota may soon find themselves zapped by Tasers from on high. That’s one of the possibilities presented by the state’s House Bill 1328, which allows police departments to equip drones with non-lethal weapons such as Tasers, tear gas and rubber bullets. Controversy already is swirling around the new law, which went into effect Aug. 1. The original piece of legislation, as presented by state Rep. Rick Becker, was aimed at making sure police obtained a search warrant to use a drone to seek out criminal evidence. But when Bruce Burkett, a lobbyist with ties to area police, was allowed to amend the bill, it was rewritten to specify that drones could carry anything except weapons capable of lethal force. Although Tasers are meant just to stun suspects with jolts of electricity, hundreds have died in the past decade as a result of the weapon. More recently, there’s been increased public concern about the militarization of police departments. Becker will push for the removal of the non-lethal force provision when the state Legislature returns for its next session. He had expressed outrage at a March hearing, saying, “There should be a nice, red line: Drones should not be weaponized. Period.” But he told USA TODAY that he’s pleased that at least some form of drone legislation is on the books in his state. “I brought this issue up in 2013, asking for a prohibition on all (drone-based) weapons, and it was opposed by law enforcement. So when it came up again this year, I was told they wouldn’t oppose it if there was an amendment” about non-lethal force weapons, Becker says. Regardless of what state police may want to do as a result of the new legislation, the high cost of sophisticated drone technology may keep weaponized police drones grounded in the short term. The Daily Beast reported that the Grand Forks County Sheriff Department currently has two drones, both of which are on loan from California manufacturers. At present, they are equipped only with cameras. SAN

along with companies’ earnings and cash flow. Most corrections never turn into full-blown bear markets — and corrections pass soon enough. The past 19 corrections on the S&P 500 lasted only 138 days on average, but more important, investors recovered their losses in just 110 days. If you invest for the long-term, these events are typically just an uncomfortable couple of months. “History suggests the S&P 500 will rebound. We agree,” a Barclay’s Capital report said to clients this week.
DON’T TRY TO TIME THE MARKET. As if investors needed to hear this again: The vicious decline and then sudden upswing was a resounding reminder of the perils of trying to get in and out of the market at just the right time. Investors who panicked and sold on Tuesday locked in a 12.4% decline from the market high, which was at least half repaired in just two days. And that’s not to mention the head-fake rally on Tuesday that chewed up investors who jumped in too early.

May be perfect time for Murdoch to sue over content
JAE YANG AND PAUL TRAP, USA TODAY
Michael Wolff
@MichaelWolffNYC Michael@burnrate.com USA TODAY
From the early days of the commercial Internet, Rupert Murdoch has expressed his frustration and anger over the disingenuousness that has allowed, under the guise of freedom and innovation, a widespread appropriation of otherwise protected content. Once, to no practical effect, he threatened to block Google’s crawlers from searching and indexing his newspapers. Later, he put up one of the industry’s most solid pay walls — impeding his own traffic without raising meaningful subscription income. In a recent speech in Australia, as I noted in my last column, the CEO of Murdoch’s newspaper company, Robert Thomson, harshly castigated the major digital platforms and labeled Google a “pirate” — which, I suggested, sounded like a prelude to a Murdoch lawsuit. MEDIA
That prompted quite an outpouring from people in both the tech and media businesses, asking, “Do you really think he will?” The answer is, I have no idea. Except that when you, or your highest executives, publicly accuse someone of massive copyright infringements, how can you not take action? And, too, from Murdoch’s perspective, there seems little to lose. On the one hand, you have a traditional newspaper industry that has, in a few year’s time, lost more than half of its value, with the decline continuing. On the other, you have a “digital first” movement that, at best, accepts the idea of a defenestrated news business. In this, Murdoch, at 84, has sometimes seemed like a Shakespearean, or ridiculous, figure — railing against what he cannot change. And yet, this is a curious and maybe opportune moment. The digital upstarts that have undermined the entrenched old-line incumbents are now scarily entrenched and hegemonic. In many parts of the world, the tide is turning against them. Google, like Microsoft before it, is now squarely in the cross hairs of European courts and regulators. In-

deed, there are any number of jurisdictions in the world where a copyright suit against Google and Facebook might be a plausible and popular action. There may not be a better moment — or this may be the last moment — to challenge the assumptions that have shifted power in the information business and gutted the economics of many content creators. It’s a Murdoch sort of moment. In 1986, after several decades in which British newspaper unions took power from owners and management, flattening the industry, Murdoch, in the dead of night, moved all of his papers from unionized Fleet Street in London to a protected enclave up
the river in Wapping. In one of the most bitter industrial disputes of the era, he shut out the printers union. Although reviled then by the left and the liberal media, he is now widely regarded as having saved British newspapers for another generation. This may, too, be a moment in which the Murdoch world view could be a bracing tonic. The unsentimental Murdoch sees the world as a struggle among more and less powerful entities. Google and Facebook, controlling 52% of the digital ad market, profit from other people’s content and pay nothing for it, offering a perfect example of the public policy reasons for copyright protection — without it, copyright holders can’t economically exist. Under the guise of new cultural norms and advancements in technology, the indexing and sharing platforms effectively became radio stations playing recordings without having to pay ASCAP, the organization that collects royalties for content owners. And yet, at the same time as Google and Facebook staunchly resist paying copyright holders, significant music and video licensing fees have been wrestled out of YouTube (a Google subsid-
iary); this year, Netflix will pay Hollywood and the TV industry $3 billion in fees; Spotify, the digital platform, pays 70% of its revenue to music labels. Why haven’t newspapers been able to share in this increasingly lucrative game? Partly because the horse has already bolted from the barn. Google says, with seeming reasonableness, that if you don’t like the system, feel free to pull your content out of our index — knowing that, however bleak the new business reality, nobody is going to turn down traffic, the crumbs left on the table. Likewise, Facebook could willingly forsake The New York Times and its members’ ability to share it, without a tremor, or much notice, from its billion users. There is just no leverage left. Except perhaps Murdoch’s willfulness. Is there one more battle here? The ultimate one. News Corp. has more than a billion dollars in the bank. Digital technology has created a climate of invincibility and awe and a kind of Stockholm Syndrome that has overwhelmed the publishing industry. Likely there is only one old man who is immune to that.

xtended-stay hotels used to be considered drab places for employees being relocated or families in between homes. “It was the down-market product,” says Brian McGuinness, global brand leader of Starwood’s Specialty Select Brands. But in light of the rising stardom of apartment rental site Airbnb, hotel companies are realizing travelers want to feel like they’re home even when they’re on the road for long stretches of time for work. As a result, major hotel chains, including Starwood, Hyatt and Marriott, are expanding and modernizing their extended-stay offerings. Think more modern guestroom design, lobbies that look like living rooms, outdoor lounges, evening social hours and organized activities. “The extended-stay model is changing,” McGuinness says. It’s also growing. The number of extended-stay rooms in the USA went from a little more than 200,000 in 2001 to nearly 380,000 today, according to STR, which tracks supply and demand data for the hotel industry. PKF Hospitality Research’s analysis of the STR data found that over the past decade, about one in every five new rooms in the USA has been an extended-stay product. Extended-stay rooms are generally defined as having a kitchen
that includes some form of a stove or cook-top. Starwood’s Element, an environmentally friendly extendedstay hotel chain with sleek rooms and fun lobbies, has grown to 19 properties since its debut in 2008. McGuinness says that number will triple by 2018. Marriott expects the number of Residence Inns to reach 1,000 by 2020, mostly in North America. InterContinental Hotel Group’s Staybridge Suites brand has 216 hotels open and 106 in the pipeline. Its Candlewood Suites brand has 330 hotels open and 92 in the pipeline, says Heather Balsley, senior vice president of Americas Brand Management for IHG. Chuck Dexter Jr., a computer engineer in Yorkville, Ill., says he likes staying at extended-stay hotels while on a business trip because he has a kitchen to cook in when he doesn’t eat out and the staff gets to know him better. “Extended-stay hotels serve the purpose of home away from home for people that need a temporary relocation to work,” he says. Many of the properties are popping up in urban centers. In the past, extended-stay hotels were more commonly found in suburbs or near airports. Hyatt House, for instance, this year moved into more urban locations such as downtown Salt Lake City, Atlanta and Seattle. Hyatt Houses also can be found in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City and in downtown New Orleans. “They never would have done that 10 years ago,” says Bruce Ford, senior vice president at

Lodging Econometrics, a research firm. “They didn’t have a strong demand to support it and say it would work. But when they began to test it, it proved to be wildly successful.” Airbnb apartment rentals are starting to chip away at some of that success. Hoteliers say they can provide a better alternative to Airbnb because they can offer more amenities and services. They also have rewards programs. “An extended-stay hotel can deliver unique, personal touches and service amenities that Airbnb and other home-stay businesses simply cannot, such as front-desk staff, maintenance staff, etc.,” says Bill Duncan, global head of Homewood Suites and Home2 Suites by Hilton. These hotel heavyweights also face competition from smaller, independent companies such as ROOST Apartment Hotel, Redbury and Sonesta. Those brands came up with their own boutique versions of extended-stay hotels. Sonesta’s ES Suites is rapidly growing, having nine openings in the past month, says Mike Wohl, vice president of operations. Personalized service is what sets it apart from other hotels, he says.

the runways, taxiways and ramp, and wing-tip clearance were reviewed and found to be safe. The 787 would fly the same profile as other arrivals into DCA. The runway landing distance available would determine the landing weight. The 787 stops very well, resulting in a “routine” landing profile. The passengers would not notice a difference. On takeoff, the 787 would perform normal performance calculations. The wind, temperature, runway length, obstacles and climb performance would determine the maximum weight for takeoff. Other than being a bit larger than other DCA traffic, the 787’s visit would be routine. Q: Sometimes with a full flight on a large aircraft it seems as though the takeoff is going to use the entire runway. What is the minimum safety margin between needed takeoff roll and runway length? — Walter, Charlotte A: Takeoff performance calculations always ensure the airplane can stop on the runway if necessary up to the commit-to-fly speed, known as V1. After that, the airplane accelerates to takeoff speed, known as Vr, and climbs to a minimum of 35 feet by the time it reaches the end of the runway or clearway. The ability to stop if necessary and take off safely is the legal requirement, but there is no specific margin specified. Cox is a retired airline captain with US Airways.
Car rental counters don’t have to be such a hassle Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY
If you rent a car this summer, don’t forget to pack your patience. Kristin Brocoff wishes she had when she rented a car in Albany, N.Y., recently. Her family was visiting the nearby Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, and when ON they landed, she TRAVEL EVERY faced a three-hour MONDAY line at the Budget counter. “When we finally reached the front of the line, a representative told us there were no cars left,” recalls Brocoff, who works for a technology company in Las Vegas. “They’d be bringing more in from a nearby town.” Most car rental customers experience little or no wait for their wheels, but during peak times — such as special events or the upcoming Labor Day weekend — a lengthy wait is inevitable. But a
little insider knowledge and advance planning can help you shortcut the line. Delays are difficult to predict, in part because customers are hard to predict. Unlike dealing at airlines, which have strict refund rules, you can walk away from most car rental reservations with no financial consequences. That makes accurately forecasting a wait difficult, sometimes impossible. “There are also unpredictable factors, such as weather conditions affecting rental returns and flight arrival delays or ‘courtesy bus’ delays due to airport traffic or local road congestion. All of which can impact counter lines,” says Neil Abrams, a car rental consultant. Bottom line: There’s no such thing as an “average” wait time in the industry. There are too many variables. There are solutions. If Brocoff had been a member of the Avis First program (Avis owns Budget), she would have never seen the line. The “First” program, like other preferred customer programs offered by car rental companies, lets you give
Tips for reducing your wait time uThere’s an app for that. The National Car Rental mobile app lets you modify any reservation feature, including car class, arrival time or day, and payments. Plus, Emerald Club members can receive alerts and directions through the app to help avoid potential delays. uSwitch car rental companies on the fly. You can cancel your reservation without penalty and book at a car rental company with less of a wait time. That’s a classic winwin situation, because it frees up your car for a future renter and puts you in a vehicle faster, but from another company. uAvoid peak rental times. If you’re renting at an airport, the worst times are just before busy holiday weekends like Labor Day, at a time of day when most flights arrive. Even the best-managed car rental location doesn’t stand a chance. Instead, take the redeye and get first choice from the morning’s inventory.
Avis your rental preferences, then sets aside a car for you. That’s right, no line. Inderpal Singh, a management consultant based in Detroit, uses Avis First every time he rents a car. “It literally saves me 20 minutes per trip,” he says. National’s Emerald Club works in a similar way. You give the car company your rental preferences and reservation information, then go directly to the “Emerald Aisle” at one of 65 locations in the USA and Canada. If you belong to National’s club and reserve a midsize car, you can select any vehicle in the aisle — even if it’s in a higher class — and still only pay a midsize rate. Even if you don’t participate in a rental company’s loyalty program, you can find ways around that line. Companies such as Hertz have rental kiosks that can be far faster than dealing with a human agent at the counter. On a recent visit to Denver, I witnessed a short line at the Hertz rental counter but no line at a bank of new kiosks. The electronic interface allowed me to finish my reservation remotely, by videoconference, and in half
the time it would have taken me in the normal line. Total time saved: at least 10 minutes. That tactic works as long as you’re not renting in a city of early technology adopters. When Cathy Duffy, a college professor from Racine, Wis., rented a car from Hertz in Los Angeles recently, she was met with a long line and only a few representatives staffing the counter. Then two agents suddenly left to go on break. An employee stated that she could always try the kiosk “but noted that the wait time even for self-service was about 15 minutes.” You can also expedite the process by knowing what you want, says Sharon Faulkner, executive director of the American Car Rental Association. “Know what coverage you want or don’t want in advance,” she says. “Know what gas return policy you want to sign up for or decline. Be prepared to actually accept the vehicle you reserved.” Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler. Contact him at chris@elliott.org or visit elliott.org.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?
Donna Freydkin USA TODAY
H
er mom was the sovereign of snark. As the co-host of E!’s oftenscathing Fashion Police, Joan Rivers unleashed many sartorial gems. When critiquing Christina Aguilera in Atelier Versace at a 2010 black-tie gala, Rivers said: “It looks like Snooki goes blond.” She didn’t approve of Natalie Portman’s purse accessory for a black Dior at the 2010 Black Swan premiere: “What I didn’t like is that she’s carrying a book. That says, this movie sucks, I’m so bored, I’m going to read through it.” And after the 2011 Golden Globes, Rivers pronounced Michelle Williams the worstdressed. “Look in the mirror. Valentino hates your (expletive) guts. It’s terrible.” Monday (8 p.m. ET/PT), Rivers’ daughter, Melissa, steps into her stilettos as a co-host of the revamped Fashion Police, which returns to weigh in on MTV’s Video Music Awards, joining Giuliana Rancic and Brad Goreski, after Kathy Griffin and Kelly Osbourne exited.
Friday marks the first anniversary of Joan Rivers’ death after surgical complications. “Everyone keeps asking me what I’m going to do on the 4th. My answer is, let me get through the 31st,” Melissa Rivers says. “I’m not allowing myself to go down that path mentally. I think it’s a rabbit hole for me. I haven’t really thought about it, because denial is more than a river. I started scattering her ashes last week. My focus has been much
“I just hear her in my head going, ‘Melissa, please, I had an amazing life and stop wallowing.’ ” more on the day to day, rather than saying, ‘Oh, my God, it’s been a year.’ I just hear her in my head going, ‘Melissa, please, I had an amazing life and stop wallowing.’ The best thing I could do to preserve legacy is to keep going and move forward.” Rivers, a contributor to the show, says it’s time to reclaim the fun. “We had an amazing four years where it was so much fun. Every-
one was excited to be there,” she says. “We have to find the heart and we have to find the fun. We want to get back to the fun. We’re talking about fashion. We’re not talking about the Iran nuclear deal.” Her comedy will be different from her mother’s. “My mom always said I made her laugh,” she says. “I don’t know if our humor is similar. I’m drier. I’m continuously amused by absurdity. What are these people doing?” She says Rancic’s controversial comments about Zendaya’s dreadlocks at this year’s Oscars are ancient history. “We’re going to leave that behind,” she says. “What’s fascinating to me is how the story won’t go away. “On the one hand, that’s a huge compliment. On the other hand, let’s move forward. My mother’s death spun everyone in very different ways.”

Straight Outta Compton continued to rule the box office for the third weekend in a row, holding off a spirited charge by the faith-based film War Room. Compton triumphed again with $13.2 million in a dog-day, lateAugust box office battle, according to studio estimates. The biopic on the ’80s rap group N.W.A has earned $134.1 million in the USA, which makes it the highest-grossing musical biopic ever, passing the lifetime U.S. total of the Johnny Cash story Walk the Line ($119.5 million). “Straight Outta Compton is taking full advantage of being a great movie released at a great time in the movie calendar,” says Paul Dergarabedian, box office analyst for the movie tracking firm Rentrak. “There’s just not a lot of competition out there.” But all eyes were on the stealth box office power of War Room,
JAIMIE TRUEBLOOD
Aldis Hodge, Neil Brown Jr., Corey Hawkins, Jason Mitchell and O’Shea Jackson Jr. led Compton to its third straight No. 1. which took in $11 million. The Christian drama stars T.C. Stallings, Priscilla Shirer and Karen Abercrombie and follows a couple who work to solve their marital problems through prayer. “We are ecstatic!” co-writer and producer Stephen Kendrick said in a statement. “God totally gets the credit for what’s happening. Thousands of people have been praying for this movie. With all of our inadequacy, God keeps
taking what is said to be impossible and makes it undeniable.” With only 11 reviews on the aggregate site RottenTomatoes.com, War Room received a lowly 18% critical approval rating. But its faithful audience scored it an A+ on CinemaScore. Many experts didn’t “see this one coming,” Dergarabedian says. “It shows that when you create a film for the faith-based audience, they will support that movie.”
Zac Efron flopped as an EDM DJ with big music ambitions in We Are Your Friends, which took in a paltry $1.8 million. “This is one of the biggest box office disappointments of the year coming from a major studio,” says Phil Contrino, analyst for BoxOffice.com. “It hurts Efron’s momentum.” Owen Wilson fared comparably better with the opening weekend for his drama No Escape, playing a businessman trying to save his family during a violent uprising in an unspecified country. It opened in fourth place with $8.28 million. That wasn’t enough to put it ahead of Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation in its fifth weekend. Tom Cruise’s fifth installment of the action series took in $8.3 million for a total $170.4 million, good enough for third. Horror movie Sinister 2 rounded out the top five with $4.7 million in its second weekend, which brings its total to $18.5 million. Final numbers are expected Monday.

SDSU likely lone win for KU
AP tos
Pho
It’s that time of year: time to predict the Kansas University football team’s record, and then get ready to duck from verbal darts accusing me of a “negative” slant. And then, on the brink of December, the record shows that I yet again was too optimistic by a game. I’m not going to let that happen again. So, torn between 1-11 and 2-10, I’ll remember my too-positive predictions of the past and go with 1-11. (Las Vegas oddsmakers set the over/ under at 1.5. No wonder it’s such a tough call.) Ranking the 12 games from least difficult to most difficult shows that if Kansas has a better shot of winning games in the first half of the schedule than the downright brutal second half. 1 — South Dakota State, Saturday, 11 a.m.: Tough, tough call, but two factors make me think Kansas will win a close one. First, South Dakota State never has defeated an FBS opponent, which adds a little pressure. Second, the emotional edge goes to the Jayhawks because they want to get their likeable first-year head coach, David Beaty, off to a good start. 2 — Texas Tech, Oct. 17: The Red Raiders change head coaches the way Kansas changes starting quarterbacks. Eighteen years after Glen Mason made him the youngest defensive coordinator in the nation, David Gibbs, 48, took over Texas Tech’s defense in January. Defensive-backs coach for Mason for two years at Kansas, Gibbs takes over a unit that surrendered a Big 12-worst 495 points in 12 games for the 4-8 Red Raiders. If they get off to a lousy start, talk about Kliff Kingsbury’s job security will start, a distraction that could make them vulnerable, even against Kansas, by mid-season. 3 — At Rutgers, Sept. 26, 11 a.m.: Kansas has lost its last 33 games played outside of Lawrence. Do I hear 34, anyone? 4 — Memphis, Sept. 12, 6 p.m.: Tigers quarterback Paxton Lynch moves so well for a 6-foot-6, 230-pound quarterback that he ran for 13 touchdowns last season. He throws (3,031 yards, 22 TDs) better than he runs. 5 — West Virginia, Nov. 21: Big-time play-makers on offense have been the norm for Mountaineers, but that might not be the case this season. 6 — At Iowa State, Oct. 3: In three post-Mark Mangino trips to Ames, KU has been outscored, 75-26. Plus, Cyclones have revenge factor on their side. 7 — At Oklahoma State, Oct. 24: Late-season starter Mason Rudolph looked like world-beater in leading Cowboys to 2-1 record as true freshman. He doesn’t have to beat the world in this one, just the Jayhawks. 8 — At Texas, Nov. 7: In KU’s past four trips to

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY DEFENSIVE BACKS IN THE PRO RANKS INCLUDE PRO BOWLERS, from left, Aqib Talib (Denver), Darrell Stuckey (San Diego) and Chris Harris (Denver).
Jayhawks’ defensive backs need not look far to find pro-level motivation By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com
Every time Kansas University safety Bazie Bates IV takes a seat in Mrkonic Auditorium at Anderson Family Football Complex, the junior from Trinity Valley Community College can look over his shoulders and see largerthan-life reminders of what is possible for a Jayhawks defensive back. The newly decorated room where KU holds team meetings features murals of former Kansas stars Aqib Talib, Chris Harris and Darrell Stuckey — all of whom utilized their time in Law-
rence to showcase their skills and land NFL jobs. The giant images allow current players to recall past greatness, but for Bates they also provide flashbacks to past training sessions in his hometown of Allen, Texas, where he first met Talib, Harris and Bates Stuckey two years ago. It hasn’t been uncommon since then for Bates to show up for an offseason workout and see one of the trio of sprinting KU success stories going
through the same drills as him. The way Bates tells it, once they learned he was jucobound, the loyal Jayhawks seemed to become unofficial recruiters. “They all the time would talk about ‘Kansas this, Kansas that.’ When I was training with them, they would always throw out little stuff,” Bates said, smiling. “And them having success in the league was kind of another drive to commit and be here and be a part of it.” Between the proven accomplishments of Pro Bowlers Talib, Harris and Stuckey and seeing KU corners Ja-
Corey Shepherd and Dexter McDonald taken in the NFL Draft this past spring, there are plenty of examples for KU’s defensive backs to follow. As Bates, fellow safeties Fish Smithson and Greg Allen, corners Brandon Stewart, Matthew Boateng, Ronnie Davis and Tyrone Miller and nickel back Tevin Shaw aim to carve out paths of their own to the NFL, they know helping turn around a downtrodden KU program would be a critical step in the right direction. Bates said the defensive backs consider themselves Please see DBS, page 3C
’Bama making a run at KU target Bolden HIS TRIPS n Marques
Bolden’s visits: Duke (Sept. 1819), Kansas (Sept. 25-26)
By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Alabama has emerged as a major player for Kansas University basketball recruiting target Marques Bolden, a 6-foot-10, 240-pound senior center from DeSoto, Texas, who according to reports made an unofficial visit to Tuscaloosa over the weekend.
New ’Bama coach Avery Johnson recently hired Texas Titans AAU coach Scott Pospichal, who worked with Bolden in the past. Alabama recently received a commitment from 6-6 shooting guard Terrance Ferguson of Tulsa, Oklahoma, who played ball at Prime Prep in Dallas last season.
Bolden, who is ranked No. 14 in the Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, is scheduled to visit Duke on Sept. 18-19 and KU on Sept. 25-26. He also says he will attend Late Night in the Phog on Oct. 9 on an unofficial visit. He recently had to cancel an upcoming Sept. 4 visit to Kentucky because of scheduling conflicts.

Odd double play dooms KC
St. Petersburg, Fla. (ap) — A late comeback bid by the Kansas City Royals was stymied by a strange and disputed double play. Batter Kendrys Morales was tagged out near the batter’s box after a play at the plate to end the top of the eighth inning of the AL Central-leading Royals’ 3-2 loss Sunday to the Tampa Please see KEEGAN, page 3C Bay Rays.
Down 3-2 with runners on first and third with one out, Morales hit a grounder that Rays first baseman James Loney fielded along the line in front of the base. Loney threw home, where catcher Rene Rivera tagged out a sliding Ben Zobrist as he tried to advance from third. Thinking the ball was foul, Morales took a step out of the box and never headed
toward first. He was tagged out by Rivera to complete the double play. “You go back and look at the replay, obviously it’s not (a fair ball)” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “We generally don’t run on foul balls.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE COMING AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE
Sonoma, Calif. (ap) — A heartbreaking week. A jaw-dropping final few laps. A tiebreaking finale. A familiar face hoisting the championship trophy. Scott Dixon captured his fourth IndyCar championship Sunday by winning the season finale to snatch the title from Juan Pablo Montoya. Montoya led the standings from the season-opener until the final lap of the year. But in a race worth double points, Dixon dominated and overcame a 47-point deficit to tie Montoya in the standings. The title went to the New Zealander based on number of wins: Sunday was Dixon’s third of the season, while Montoya had two. “There was still a chance, and that’s what we were hoping for,” Dixon said. “I still can’t believe it. We were such a long shot.” Dixon and team owner Chip Ganassi celebrated by leaping from the championship stage to crowd surf. It was one of the few uplifting moments at the end of a somber week following the death of Justin Wilson. Wilson was struck in the head by a piece of debris from another car last Sunday at Pocono Raceway and died a day later from his injuries. Dixon was one of the many supporters who remained in Pennsylvania to stay with Wilson’s family at the hospital. “We all raced with heavy hearts this weekend,” Dixon said. “It’s been a very tough week. It’s such a small community. But Justin would have wanted us to go out and race, and today I gave it my all from when the green flag dropped. Much love to the Wilson family.” The victory was the 100th for Chip Ganassi Racing, while a Team Penske driver failed to win a championship in the finale for the ninth time since 2002. It also marked Chevrolet’s fourth consecutive manufacturer championship since the company returned to IndyCar in 2012. “I’m shocked,” Ganassi said. “We knew we had a car to be at the front, and then a lot of other things had to happen. And they happened.” Indeed, Dixon was third in the standings as he began the race and everyone assumed it was Montoya’s title to lose. And he did. Team Penske was in trouble from the midway point of the race when Montoya hit teammate Will Power. It sent the Colombian to pit lane for repairs and he was mired in the middle of the pack for the bulk of the race. Montoya made a hard charge, ultimately slicing Ryan Briscoe’s lead to 1.6 seconds, but he ran out of time to grab that final spot. He was pragmatic. “It doesn’t matter what happened,” Montoya said. “We had a few ways to win the championship and we just threw it away. We didn’t close it.”

South Williamsport, Pa. — With more than 42,000 fans cheering against them, the Tokyo players found themselves down eight runs in the first inning of the Little League championship game against Lewisberry, Pennsylvania. That brought out manager Junji Hidaka’s inner Yogi Berra and sparked a record rally that saw the Kitasua Little League pound out 22 hits in an 18-11 comeback victory in a battle of undefeated teams. “I told the players it doesn’t end until it ends,” Hidaka said through a translator. Tokyo responded with seven runs in the second, four in the third inning and five in the sixth. Masafuji Nishijima had four hits and six RBIs, and Shingo Tomita hit two of Tokyo’s five home runs. Tokyo’s third pitcher, Nobuyuki Kawashima, held Lewisberry in check most of the game, giving up just one run and two hits over five innings. “Today my fastball wasn’t going fast enough,” said the 12-year-old, who lived for four years in California, and speaks fluent English. “I knew my breaking ball had to be on the corner, down low, where the batters can’t reach too far or it just gets them off-balance.” It was the 10th title for Japan, second behind Taiwan’s record 17. It’s the third title for the Kitasuna Little League team, which also took home championship pennants in 2001 and 2012.
GOLF
Day rolls at Barclays Edison, N.J. — The toughest challenge Jason Day faced Sunday at The Barclays was convincing his peers that golf really isn’t this easy. He’s just making it look that way. Fresh off his first major at the PGA Championship, the 27-year-old Australian powered and putted his way to another blowout against a world-class field, capping off an explosive weekend at Plainfield with an 8-under 62 for a six-shot victory over Henrik Stenson. It was his third victory in his last four starts dating to the British Open, where he left a 30-foot birdie putt short on the final hole at St. Andrews and missed out on a playoff by one shot. Day shot 63-62 on the weekend and finished at 19-under 261. He won two weeks ago at Whistling Straits by three shots over Jordan Spieth with a record score to par at 20-under 268. And the week after St. Andrews, he won the Canadian Open by one shot over Bubba Watson at 17-under 271. Stenson closed with a 66. Watson was third at 11 under after a 69. The victory, Day’s fourth on the PGA Tour this year, moved him to No. 1 in the FedEx Cup and assures that he will be among the top five who have a clear shot at the $10 million bonus at the Tour Championship. Day remains at No.
3 in the world, but now enters the picture with Spieth and Rory McIlroy for golf supremacy. All three will have a mathematical chance to get to No. 1 at the Deutsche Bank Championship next week at the TPC Boston.
Tamulis takes Yokohama Prattville, Ala. — Kris Tamulis won the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic for her first LPGA Tour title. Tamulis played 29 holes Sunday in the twice-delayed tournament, the 186th of her LPGA Tour career. She finished a third-round 67 and closed with a 65 to beat Yani Tseng and Austin Ernst by a stroke. The 34-year-old former Florida State player had a 17-under 271 total on The Senator Course. Tseng had rounds of 71 and 67, and Ernst shot 68-69 with the weather clearing up after delays totaling nearly seven hours the previous two days. Both parred the final hole with a chance to force a playoff. Tamulis birdied four of the first six holes in the final round before finally making her only bogey of the last three rounds. She hadn’t finished better than fourth on the tour.
Maggert Champions winner Endicott, N.Y. — Jeff Maggert won the Dick’s Sporting Goods Open on Sunday for his fourth Champions Tour victory of the year, closing with a 6-under 66 to beat Paul Goydos by two strokes. Maggert took the lead in the Charles Schwab Cup standings, 119 points ahead of Colin Montgomerie. Maggert finished at 14-under 202 at En-Joie. He won the Regions Tradition in May and the U.S. Senior Open in July, both major championships, and took the Shaw Charity Classic three weeks ago in Canada.

Sharapova out of Open The U.S. Tennis Association says Maria Sharapova is pulling out of the U.S. Open on the eve of the tournament because of a leg injury. It’s the second time in three years that the 2006 champion has withdrawn from the year’s last Grand Slam event. Sharapova has not played a match since losing to Serena Williams in the Wimbledon semifinals in July. She withdrew from hard-court tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati in August, citing a right leg strain. Sharapova is a five-time major champion who was seeded No. 2 for the U.S. Open, where play begins Monday. The USTA said Sunday that Daria Kasatkina is the lucky loser who will replace Sharapova in the main draw.

Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia, who is ranked No. 2 in the Class of 2016, will visit KU for the Oct. 9 Late Night in the Phog. He’s also considering Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky and Wake Forest. Giles also won “best face-up game” by those who were polled. According to the panel, the biggest trash talker on the AAU circuit is No. 1-ranked Josh Jackson, a 6-7 senior shooting guard from Prolific Prep in Napa, California. He has visited Maryland and has said he wants to visit KU, Arizona and Michigan State. UCLA, UNLV and Villanova also are on his list. Best dunker is … No. 11-ranked Ferguson, who recently committed to Alabama over KU and many others. Best back-to-the-basket game belongs to … Bahamas native DeAndre Ayton, a 6-11 junior center from Balboa City School in San Diego who is ranked No. 1 in the Class of 2017. He’s considering KU, Kentucky, Arizona, San Diego State, North Carolina, Cal, Michigan, Duke and others. Most likely to break a rim is … senior Edrice “Bam” Adebayo, a 6-9

fortunate to be at KU, and the last thing they can do is let themselves get complacent. “Just seeing that success that used to be,” the 6-foot-1 Bates said, “we want to bring that back here.” That’s one reason KU’s current corners put in extra work and spend part of that time watching video of Shepherd and McDonald. Said Smithson, who played with both 2015 NFL draftees: “They go back and watch them and use what they can take from their game to make their (own) game better.“ Even though the majority of KU’s secondary is untested at this level,

Liana Salazar gave the Jayhawks a 1-0 lead in the 35th minute when she

Porter, who plays for MoKan Elite, has a list of KU, Duke, Missouri, Stanford, Washington, UCLA, Indiana, Virginia, Syracuse and Kentucky. Toughest defensive assignment is … Udoka Azubuike, 6-11 senior center from Potter’s House in Jacksonville, Florida, who is ranked No. 26. Florida State, KU and Duke are said to be leading Florida, Kentucky, Georgetown, Auburn, Cal, Maryland, Texas, North Carolina State and Wake Forest. Best killer instinct belongs to … Rawle Alkins, a 6-4 senior shooting guard rom Christ the King High in Brooklyn, who is ranked No. 15.

they have the same goals as those defensive backs who came before them. Stewart, a 6-foot corner who teamed with Bates at Trinity Valley CC, acknowledges the process of joining former KU players in the professional ranks is long. But he said if he prepares every day and listens to his coaches, he’ll get there. “I think everybody in this room … if you play college football, I feel like you should want to go to the league,” Stewart said, “or else why are you here, you know?” Kansas defensive coordinator Clint Bowen, who coached Harris, Talib and Stuckey, knows the importance of having talented defensive backs in the Big 12. He’ll need to see signs from his unproven corners and safeties beginning Saturday,

The play is not reviewable under the challenge rules. “In my eyes and my mind, it’s a foul ball,” Morales said through an interpreter. “It’s a little bit frustrating. That play should be reviewable. A game shouldn’t be decided on a play like that.” Brandon Guyer and Kevin Kiermaier homered for the Rays, who won for the sixth time in 16 games. “Good win, exciting ballgame,” Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash said. Kiermaier’s sixth-inning homer off Luke Hochevar (1-1) broke a 2-2 tie. It was Kiermaier’s second homer in two games and sixth of the season. Xavier Cedeno (3-1) got the win in relief while Brad Boxberger pitched the ninth for his 32nd save. Four of Kansas City’s seven hits came during a two-run third that included RBIs by Zobrist and Lorenzo Cain. Rays starter Nathan Karns gave up two runs on six hits while striking out five. It was the rookie right-hander’s 19th start in which he has given up two runs or fewer, most in the AL. Kansas City starter Danny Duffy gave up two runs while striking out six in five innings. Guyer led off the third with a homer off Duffy, his sixth of the season. By salvaging the final game of a three-game series, Tampa Bay prevented the Royals from a 7-0 sweep of their season series, a feat they have not accomplished since going 12-0 against Baltimore in 1988.
