Costly upkeep

ome American Indian same-sex couples have been getting married, legally, by their tribal governments for years.

That wasn’t an option for Darla and Mattisa Harrison, of Lawrence, however. l l l

Even after Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling it still wouldn’t be, as the decision does not apply to tribal law, experts say.

THE HARRISONS — Darla, 60, left, and Mattisa, 40 — of Lawrence were married in what they call “the white man way” at the Douglas County Courthouse in March. In Indian Country, their union is a trickier legal proposition, even after Friday’s landmark ruling.

In the latter stages of his career, if Bruner walked into a delivery room at LMH, chances were good that it’s because things had gotten a little difficult.

EilEEn MalonEy olandEr Eileen Maloney Olander, age 86, quietly and comfortably passed away in her home on June 19, 2015, after a short illness. Eileen, fondly known as “EMO”, was born and raised in Lawrence, KS, daughter of Owen W. “Pat” and Blanche Simons Maloney. She was the granddaughter of Gertrude and W.C. Simons.

She attended Holland Hall High School in Tulsa, OK and the University of Kansas in Lawrence. Following her marriage to Carl E. Olander Jr., she moved to Wichita, KS, where she lived for 35 years.

She loved spending her summers in Lake City, CO and in 1989, she moved to Phoenix, AZ. EMO is survived by her 3 devoted children.

Wayne (Rees), Lynn Brown (Britt) and Kristen; 4 beautiful grandchildren, Emerson Olander (Magali), Evan Olander (Susan), Greg Winkleman, and Sara Winkleman Ortega (Stevie); and 2 great grandchildren; Charlotte and Mae Olander.

They are all scattered throughout the United States, but so close in spirit.

EMO was a bright, talented and generous woman.

She would like to be remembered for her affiliation with Kappa Kappa Gamma, the Junior League, her 25 years of service with the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association and Paradise Valley United Methodist Church. In Wichita, she taught private investment class to women titled, “Money Talks”, and owned and operated the

first Wichita needlepoint shop with two of her dearest friends. She also took pride in having tutored public school children, as well as, immigrants through the Literacy Volunteers Services in Phoenix.

EMO had a special gift of making friends and charmed people wherever she went. She never hesitated to say hello to a stranger or whistle a happy tune on a busy sidewalk. EMO will be deeply missed on earth, but remains forever in our hearts.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00pm on Wednesday, July 8, 2015 at Paradise Valley United Methodist Church, 4455 E. Lincoln Dr., Paradise Valley, AZ. A church reception will follow.

In memory of Eileen M. Olander, and in lieu of flowers, contributions to one’s favorite charity are in order, or to Kansas University Endowment Association (w w w. k u e n d ow m e n t . org), the Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation for scholarships, (www. kappakappagamma.org/ foundation) and Paradise Valley United Methodist Church.

Man guilty of attempted murder Wichita — A Wichita man has been found guilty of trying to kill his wife and two sons.

The Wichita Eagle reports Pettix McMillan was convicted Thursday of three counts of attempted first-degree murder.

The Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office says McMillan could be ordered to serve 12 1/2 years to more than 54 years in prison when he’s sentenced later this year.

Prosecutors said McMillan shot his wife in her arm and neck during an argument in the garage of their home on March 24, 2014, and then turned the gun on their 5- and 13-year-old boys. All three survived.

The prosecutor’s office says he was convicted after a four-day trial. Officers testified there had been several domestic violence calls to the home, including one six weeks before the shooting.

No penalty for jury duty-skipping judge

Wichita — A federal judge does not plan to punish Sedgwick County District Judge Michael Hoelscher for not showing up for jury duty in federal court.

U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren wrote in a scathing order Friday he believes judges and other public officials should comply with laws with which they expect others to comply. He noted federal judges here have shown up for jury service in state courts. But Melgren withdrew his earlier order requiring Hoelscher to show cause for failing to appear June 15.

The turnabout came after Hoelscher retained an attorney who argued that sitting tion at New York Elstate court judges are barred ementary School.

Reflection room rules

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

“The creation of this space will fill a great need on campus, allowing students to reflect, meditate and pray in a proper and peaceful location,” incoming Student Body Vice President Zach George said in a Student Senate statement announcing the room. “It is a small but important step toward making the University of Kansas a safer, more inclusive and diverse college community.”

George said establishing the room was a yearlong process involving the Student Senate, KU Office of Diversity and Equity, KU Memorial Unions, KU employees and Huma, who led the effort.

The alcove is envisioned as a temporary home for the reflection room until a permanent one can be established, said Nate Thomas, KU vice provost for diversity and equity.

“I’m really proud of the fact that students, faculty and staff all across campus were so united in this effort and offered their ideas and perspectives, as well as their support,” Thomas said in an email. “We’ll continue the process to create a permanent reflection room, and possibly more than one, for people to observe their beliefs.”

Huma, a rising junior from Wichita, is a student senator and served last year as president of KU’s Muslim Student Association.

She said many universities across the country, including others in Kansas, already have such a room.

KU’s Danforth Chapel, in the center of campus,

The following rules apply to the Reflection Room, according to KU Student Senate: Use of this space requires tolerance for all faiths, spiritual beliefs and practices.

To make the reflection room available to the campus community, the following requirements apply: l No sleeping. l Only KU students, faculty, staff and accompanied guests are permitted. l No candles, incense burning or other smoke, fragrance or flame is allowed. l The space is open to all individuals at all times unless specifically reserved for Diversity and Equity Office use. l Noise, conversation and music are prohibited and are to be kept to the strictest minimum. l Use is restricted to purposes of personal reflection, meditation or prayer. is designated as nondenominational and is open to anyone for meditation and prayer. However, the chapel’s days and hours are limited, and Huma said she finds it less welcoming for nonChristians.

“I don’t necessarily see that as a space that would be a safe space — as a person of a different faith, or perhaps no faith — to go inside and meditate,” Huma said.

Other spaces near campus welcome students to reflect or pray throughout the day, including the Islamic Center of Lawrence and Chabad at KU on 19th Street and the ECM on

Oread Avenue.

But Huma said having the reflection room on campus proper is not only more convenient but important to students, on principle.

“It just really shows a commitment to integrating them into the larger Jayhawk community,” she said, “instead of relegating them to a closet or stairwell or some other non-campus area.”

Huma said she appreciated the KU administration and Memorial Union agreeing to open up the alcove, especially since conference rooms on campus are in high demand — which she cited as one of the biggest obstacles to the effort over the past year.

Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel of Chabad said Jewish Center representatives participated in focus groups for the reflection room and agreed it should be accessible and convenient, as well as truly neutral and nondenominational.

“College students have a very, very hectic life with so much pulling them in so many different directions,” Tiechtel said. “I think it’s a beautiful idea to create a space on campus where, amidst the craziness of college life, the students can simply reflect.”

Lehane, who often uses Boston as the setting for his crime fiction, told the crowd he even gets fan mail for movies he didn’t even write. “If a movie is made and it’s set in Boston with a bar and a gun, I wrote it,� he joked of some fans’ misconceptions.

After the talk, Meredith McCarter, of Lawrence, joined others waiting in line to get their books signed by Lehane. McCarter said she thinks storytelling is a lost art and that she enjoyed listening to Lehane’s family stories. “It was hilarious — the realism and the honesty,� she said.

“Now we’re reclaiming our rightful place,” Barrios said. “And a lot of our tribes are respecting that.”

“I did do what was socially acceptable,” she said. “It didn’t fit.”

They believe the spirits led them to one another.

Darla wanted someone to grow old with. She said she had prayed to find a person who shared her commitment to faith, prayer and clean lifestyle — no drinking or drugs.

A few years ago, Mattisa underwent a number of surgeries after a serious car accident. During that time she gave a lot of thought to what she wanted from her life.

I’m complete, she decided, but finding someone would make life even better.

In 2011, Darla and Mattisa met on Facebook and started talking.

They met in person last summer.

Darla went to Mattisa’s home in New Mexico, and the two traveled together to a two-spirit retreat in Montana, they said, where Darla proposed and Mattisa said yes.

They were married March 25 by Judge Kay Huff, several months after Douglas County issued its first same-sex marriage licenses, on Nov. 13, 2014. Just a couple friends and Mattisa’s sister were with them.

Darla and Mattisa are soft-spoken.

You won’t find them at the front of a gay pride parade, they said, and they don’t usually broadcast their lifestyle unless it comes up in conversation.

“They’re both very strong and very sensitive,” said Jeanette Kekahbah, of Lawrence, a longtime friend of Darla’s who witnessed their wedding. “And they’re very respectful of traditional values and connections.”

Darla, as much as she would like to, said she does not dance in men’s regalia because she does not want to offend anyone who is against her way of life. She said she owns eagle feathers, a gift from a friend, but because those are traditionally reserved for male dancers she dances with red tail hawk feathers instead.

At two-spirit retreats she’s attended for many years, she said, she is able to freely dance in men’s regalia.

After the wedding, with Kekahbah drumming, Darla performed an impromptu joyful dance on the courthouse lawn. She said it was to honor her and Mattisa’s union and other twospirit people.

THE PUBLIC SCULPTURE GREEN WAVE lights up the Bowersock Power Company building, 500 South Powerhouse Road, next to the Bowersock Dam on the Kansas River Friday evening.

Some criticize KCP&L Home Energy Report program Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Some Kansas City Power & Light customers say a program that compares their energy use with their neighbors' is a form of "energy shaming" that doesn't help make homes more energy efficient.

But a KCP&L ex-

ecutive defends the Home Energy Report pilot program, saying the critics are a vocal minority and most customers appreciate receiving reports that detail their homes' energy use and offer tips for being more efficient, The Kansas City Star reported.

Baby CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

He would come in for a C-section delivery, or to use the forceps, a bygone device that has become “a lost art” for fetching a baby.

So, in comes The Fetcher. He even comes with his own soundtrack.

Bruner is notorious for singing or humming during C-sections.

“I tell people I love to sing,” says Bruner, who has been a frequent cast member at Theatre Lawrence. “I tolerate acting, and I dance under great duress.”

Somewhere in there, he’s also found time to deliver about 4,000 Lawrence babies. But that part of his career is about to close. On July 1, Bruner will leave his longtime practice of Lawrence Family Medicine & Obstetrics and become a physician at Watkins Health Services on the Kansas University campus.

“I have a delivery scheduled for June 30,” Bruner says. “I’ve told her not to be late.”

Who knows whether she’ll comply? Bruner — who began his practice in Lawrence in 1977 — figured out long ago that convenient timing wasn’t the calling card of this profession. A birthday each year reminds him of that. During the delivery of his wife’s second child, Bruner was overseeing the delivery of twins elsewhere — despite the best efforts of his wife, Kathy.

“I saw the woman out and about a few days earlier, and I told her she was supposed to be on bed rest,” Kathy says. “I knew if she was in labor the same time I was, I knew where Steve would be.”

But it all worked out, and it was much better than the delivery of their first child. Bruner was in a Pittsburg emergency room that day, working unsuccessfully to save a young boy who had become trapped in an icy pond.

There are many other stories to tell of deliveries. In the early years,

Under the program, customers get an outline of their efficient energy consumption goals and a comparison of their energy use with that of 100 neighbors with similarsized homes. The reports also offer tips on how to save energy.

Susanne McDaniel,

Brunner delivered 10 to 20 babies per month.

When the practice added partners, it was closer to five to 10 per month, and now it is down to two or three. I could tell you more stories from those deliveries, but some of them involve placentas and such, and it is difficult for me to write and faint at the same time.

There’s really only one story to tell about why Bruner is giving it up.

“Delivering babies is one of the most fun things you can do in medicine,” Bruner said.

“It is one of the easiest, and it is one of the best reimbursed. I couldn’t figure out why you would ever want to stop doing it. Now that I’m this age, I understand: Sleep. I don’t function as well anymore without sleep.

“I will miss delivering babies. I still really enjoy it, especially if they could all come between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m.”

There’s a lot Bruner will miss. The same nurse, Jan Potts, has assisted him for 35 years.

Patients have stuck with him for generations, in some cases.

“There’s a lot of second-generation ones, and I can think of a thirdgeneration one,” Bruner says.

There’s also lots of memories of change.

“I don’t know if I’ve learned so much about people or just about how much they have

"I know I'm doing the best that I can," she said. "I think they're a waste of paper and a waste of postage."

changed,” Bruner says.

Back in the early days of the practice he remembers having to “basically blackmail mothers” to use a car seat. The same goes with breastfeeding. At one point, the only reason many mothers would breastfeed is because they couldn’t afford the formula.

It is not just the patients who have changed.

Doctors have had to change as well. Think of computers, privacy acts, managed care and countless other items that have given many doctors a major case of heartburn.

Don’t count Bruner among that bunch, though.

“I am a better doctor because of the changes that have occurred around me,” Bruner says.

“But I have doctors tell me that they tell their kids not to go into medicine. I begged my kids to go into medicine. I just think it is the greatest profession in the world.

We’re not underpaid.

We’re probably overpaid given the joy that we get.”

That’s why Bruner, 68, decided not to retire. He says he wasn’t looking to leave his practice, but was presented an unexpected opportunity.

He’s overseen a few of those in his career. A baby is often the greatest change many will ever experience in a lifetime.

He’s seen how positive change can be. Maybe

of vehicles where the city has actually spent more on repairs than it cost to buy the vehicles originally.

Assistant City Manager Casey Toomay said past city budgets have recommended several vehicle and equipment purchases, but they’ve frequently been deferred as commissioners work to limit tax increases.

“It is nearly always possible to drive your vehicle for another year,” Toomay said. “The challenge has been that when we have limited resources, we often have deferred vehicle purchases, and now it is catching up with us.”

The City Manager’s office is recommending the City Commission dip into reserve funds by about $1 million to purchase much of the equipment in order to avoid a tax increase in the 2016 budget. But commissioners already have been warned that probably won’t work in upcoming years.

“This may not be a sustainable plan in the future, but it would allow us to address some critical needs in 2016,” said Interim City Manager Diane Stoddard.

A report by the city’s new fleet manager found significant issues with the nearly 750 vehicles and pieces of equipment that are used by city employees.

Among the findings: l The city has multiple departments that are spending more on maintenance and repair costs for vehicles than it actually cost to originally buy the vehicles. The city’s engineering division has 36 percent of its vehicles that fall into that category. Other city divisions

that have more than 20 percent of their vehicles in that category include: streets, traffic engineering, levee maintenance, waste reduction, wastewater and water distributions.

The report found the situation was the result of “unrealistic replacement cycles or lack of funding for scheduled replacement cycles.” l The average age of the city’s fleet in 2013 was 9.5 years, up from 6 years in 2003 and 7.1 years in 2008. l The city spent $1.9 million in 2013 to repair equipment.

That’s up from $1.2 million in 2003 and $1.7 million in 2008.

Toomay noted that doesn’t include costs the city incurs while equipment is down. “Staff definitely has to modify its work when equipment is down,” Toomay said. “It impacts service levels.” l The city needs to better enforce a no-idling policy that currently is not being observed by many departments, and city employees need better instruction on how to treat city-owned vehicles. “As vehicles become older, the human nature of employees tends to lead to less care of the vehicles,” the report found.

Toomay said the city manager’s office this fall plans to devote significant resources to creating a multiyear strategy for the city’s vehicle fleet.

Commissioners are expected to receive a recommended 2016 budget from Stoddard next week. Commissioners then are expected to work on tweaking the recommended budget during much of July. The final budget must be approved by early August.

Tax mistake?

The governor and lawmakers who said the 2012 income tax cuts were bad policy should be trying harder to fix their mistake.

I

t’s a little unsettling to be reminded that even many of those who approved the state income tax cuts that have triggered revenue shortfalls and subsequent tax increases in Kansas knew it was a mistake.

Speaking at the Dole Institute of Politics last week, Senate President Susan Wagle recounted the 2012 events that led to a tax bill that lowered state income tax rates and exempted more than 330,000 business owners and farmers from paying income tax. “The governor was having a struggle getting the bill he wanted through the Legislature,” Wagle said. “And he chose to sign a bill that really slashed income taxes, but was not funded. We knew that we’d have to come back and fix it.”

And yet, two more legislative sessions have passed, and Kansans still are waiting for that fix.

Former Sen. Steve Morris, who was president of the Senate in 2012, tells the story of the tax cuts in a somewhat different way. According to him, the Senate had blocked the large tax cuts and was convinced to pass the bill only after Gov. Sam Brownback assured Senate leaders that the ill-advised cuts would not become law. As Morris recalls, the governor acknowledged that the bill was bad policy and would wreck the state, but urged the Senate to pass it so the Senate and House could negotiate a more moderate proposal in conference committee. Instead of going to conference, the House simply passed the bill and sent it to the governor, who signed it into law.

Morris and a number of other moderate Republican legislators were ousted in 2012 in favor of more conservative GOP candidates.

Wagle, his successor in the president’s chair, basically confirms that Brownback and others knew the tax cuts were a problem. Unlike Brownback and many of her colleagues, however, Wagle is willing to acknowledge that a problem exists and needs to be fixed.

She was among legislators who said this year that revisions to the business tax exemptions should be part of the plan to balance the state budget. Brownback, on the other hand, promised to veto any bill that altered those exemptions. So, instead of producing a real “fix” for the state revenue situation, legislators filled the large budget gap with additional sales and cigarette taxes and transfers from the state highway program and other state funds.

Wagle and Morris have slightly different recollections of the 2012 tax debate, but they agree on the point that Brownback said even at the time that the cuts were too much. An influx of new legislators may have complicated the task, but, given the fact that tax-cut concerns have been confirmed by lagging state revenues in the last two years, why hasn’t Brownback tried harder to change the state’s course?

Flag’s rejection was long overdue “You can always count on Americans to do the right thing — after they’ve tried everything else.”

That’s an observation widely credited to Winston Churchill, though it’s one he may or may not have ever made. Whoever said it, the truth of the axiom has seldom been more obvious than now, as we watch the fall of the Confederate battle flag. It is too early to say whether this will prove lasting. But the signs certainly point toward a seismic shift.

In South Carolina, where the Confederacy was born, a motion to allow debate on removing the flag from the grounds of the state Capitol passed by a vote of 103-10. Alabama has already removed its flag. Meantime, a number of major retailers, including Amazon, eBay and Arkansas-based Walmart, have announced they will no longer carry the flag. Perhaps most amazing, Valley Forge Flag, a 133-year-old flag maker in Pennsylvania, has said it will no longer manufacture it.

We appear to be on the verge of a long overdue national consensus that this American swastika is unfit for human consumption.

And to think: All it took was the blood of nine innocent people.

Leonard Pitts Jr.

“

lpitts@miamiherald.com

The suddenness of the change in attitude toward that flag is bracing, reminiscent, in an odd way, of when the Berlin Wall fell: Nobody saw it coming — it happened.”

Ever since 21-year-old white supremacist Dylann Roof shot up Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, the ground has been shifting beneath that flag, so beloved of the white, conservative South — especially after images emerged of Roof posing with one. “God help South Carolina if we fail to achieve the goal of removing the flag,” said South Carolina senator and presidential aspirant Lindsey Graham last week. He said this just days after telling CNN the flag was “part of who we are.”

The suddenness of the

change in attitude toward that flag is bracing, reminiscent, in an odd way, of when the Berlin Wall fell: Nobody saw it coming — it happened. That said, it is hard to be wholly invested in cheering what is happening here.

Consider: The Confederate battle flag was not somehow made more racist

by Roof’s alleged rampage.

Notwithstanding claims by Graham and others that it has somehow been misused as a racist symbol by the likes of Roof, the fact is, the thing was used as such from the moment the first thread of the first flag was sewn in support of a treasonous regime that was, to borrow Mississippi’s words, “thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery.”

The flag was certainly understood as racist — that was the whole point — by those who resurrected it to signal massive resistance to the Civil Rights Movement. It is still understood that way; why else is it ubiquitous at white supremacist rallies?

So what happened at Emanuel did not change the flag’s meaning; it only made that meaning harder to ignore. And while its fall is significant, you have to wonder if it really marks a fundamen-

tal change in the mind of the white, conservative South.

Particularly since you can’t turn around in Dixie without running into some road, bridge, statue or park honoring some individual who took up arms against the U.S. government in the name of perpetuating slavery — or without meeting someone eager to rationalize that, hiding behind abstracts like “honor” and “duty” to avoid admitting what the Confederacy really was.

The tragedy at Emanuel has forced a moment of clarity into this fog of cognitive dissonance. In days to come, we’ll see just how much that’s worth in terms of real change. Because at some point, the people of the white, conservative South must themselves take responsibility for their own racial education, for facing — and growing from — the truth about their beloved Confederacy.

Consider that it took an act of mass murder before they were willing to reckon honestly with their flag and its meaning. Yes, one is pleased to see that finally come to pass.

But the price of enlightenment seems awfully high.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for June 28, 1915: “Many Lawrence moyears torists and farmers ago are complaining of IN 1915 the blinding electric lights on the big touring cars. The drivers say that when one of the big cars approaches at night the electric lights blind passing drivers so that they cannot see what is ahead on their side of the road. A narrow escape from a collision was averted by sheer luck last Saturday night, a Lawrence man says, when he came nearly running into a horse and buggy after having been blinded by the electric lights on a passing car.”

America moved by victim’s families Washington — After a massacre like the one at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, our immediate reaction is to do something. Something, for politicians, means legislation.

And for Democratic politicians, this means gun control.

It’s the all-purpose, go-to, knee-jerk solution. Within hours of the massacre, President Obama was lamenting the absence of progress on gun control. A particular Democratic (and media) lament was Congress’ failure to pass anything after Sandy Hook.

But the unfortunate fact is that the post-Sandy Hook legislation would have had zero effect on the events in Charleston. Its main provisions had to do with assault weapons; Dylann Roof was using a semiautomatic pistol.

You can pass any gun law you want. The 1994 assault weapons ban was allowed to expire after 10 years because, as a Justice Department study showed, it had no effect. There’s only one gun law that would make a difference: confiscation. Everything else is for show.

And in this country, confiscation is impossible. Constitutionally, because of the Second Amendment. Politically, because doing so would cause something of an insurrection. And culturally, because Americans cherish — cling to, as Obama once had it — their guns as a symbol of freedom. You can largely ban guns in Canada where the founding document gives the purpose of confederation

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

With gun control going nowhere, the psychic national need post-Charleston to nonetheless do something took a remarkable direction: banishment of the Confederate flag …” as the achievement of “peace, order and good government.”

Harder to disarm a nation whose founding purpose is “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

With gun control going nowhere, the psychic national need post-Charleston to nonetheless do something took a remarkable direction: banishment of the Confederate flag, starting with the one flying on the grounds of the statehouse in Columbia, then spreading like wildfire to consume Confederate flags, symbols, statues and even memorabilia everywhere — from the Alabama state capitol to eBay and Amazon.

Logically, the connection is tenuous. Yes, Roof does

pose with the Confederate flag, among other symbols of racism, on his website. But does anyone imagine that if the South Carolina flag had been relegated to a museum, the massacre would not have occurred?

Politically, the murders created a unique moment.

Gov. Nikki Haley was surely sincere in calling for the Confederate flag’s removal.

But she also understood that the massacre had created a moment when the usual pro-Confederate flag feeling — and, surely, expressions of it — would be largely suppressed, presenting the opportunity to achieve something otherwise politically unachievable.

But there’s a deeper reason for this rush to banish Confederate symbols, to move them from the public square to the museum. The trigger was not just the massacre itself, but even more tellingly, the breathtaking display of nobility and spiritual generosity by the victims’ relatives. Within 48 hours of the murder of their loved ones, they spoke of redemption and reconciliation and even forgiveness of the killer himself. It was an astonishingly moving expression of Christian charity.

Such grace demands a response. In a fascinating dynamic, it created a feeling of moral obligation to reciprocate in some way. The flag was not material to the crime itself, but its connection to the underlying race history behind the crime

suggested that its removal from the statehouse grounds — whatever the endlessly debated merits of the case — could serve as a reciprocal gesture of reconciliation.

The result was a microcosm of — and a historical lesson in — the moral force of the original civil rights movement, whose genius was to understand the effect that combating evil with good, violence with grace would have on a fundamentally decent American nation.

The Confederate flags would ultimately have come down. That is a good thing.

They are now coming down in a rush. The haste may turn out to be problematic.

We will probably overshoot, as we are wont to do, in the stampede to eliminate every relic of the Confederacy. Not every statue has to be smashed, not every memory banished. Perhaps we can learn a lesson from Arlington National Cemetery, founded by the victorious Union to bury its dead.

There you will find Section 16. It contains the remains of hundreds of Confederate soldiers grouped around a modest, moving monument to their devotion to “duty as they understood it” — a gesture by the Union of soldierly respect, without any concession regarding the taintedness of their cause.

Or shall we uproot them as well?

More Evidence that Vitamin D Supplements Prevent Infections

In a recent review article, researchers from the MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, discussed the bioactive effects of other compounds found in turmeric root. These other compounds, called curcumin-free turmeric have anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-diabetic properties. One of them, elemene, is being used in China as an adjunct treatment of cancer.

Some of the other compounds include turmerin, turmerone, and furanodiene.

The findings did not focus specifically on colds and flus, but on infections in general.

And while the results of the study did not reach statistical significance, there were unmistakable positive trends. Overall, people taking vitamin D were 28 percent less likely to have antibiotics prescribed for them. Among people 70 years of age and older, vitamin D was associated with a 47 percent lower likelihood of getting antibiotic prescriptions.

Numerous studies have found that vitamin D activates a variety of germ-fighting immune compounds, and some research has found that it can lower the risk of colds and flus. Now a team of Australian researchers has found that vitamin D can reduce the need for antibiotics, an indirect sign of the vitamin’s infection-fighting potential.

Rachel E. Neale, PhD, of the Queensland Institute of Medical Research, Australia, and her colleagues gave 644 people, ages 60 to 84 years, monthly supplements containing one of the following: (1) 30,000 IU of vitamin D3, (2) 60,000 IU of vitamin D3, or (3) placebos.

No one took the supplements for more than a year. The dosages were equivalent to taking 1,000 IU or 2,000 IU daily.

L-arginine may beneďŹ t blood sugar

Turmeric compounds may help in cancer

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen tested the effects of L-arginine supplements on both thin and obese laboratory rats. Supplementing the animals’ diets led to a 40 percent decrease in blood sugar in both types of mice.

Numerous studies have focused on the anti-cancer effects of curcuminoids, a group of compounds found in turmeric root. The dried and ground up root is a common spice in Southeast Asia.

WASHINGTON When same-sex marriage spread from coast-tocoast Friday, arriving “like a thunderbolt” in President Obama’s words, it was not because of proponents’ perseverance over four decades or the votes of elected public officials.

It was because nine Harvardand Yale-educated men and women – or, rather, five of them – decided the Constitution’s 14th Amendment provides a fundamental right to marriage, regardless of sex.

Their decision was a monumental victory for the gay rights movement, whose leaders chose

to pursue marriage decades ago not only to reach the altar, but to show Americans who they were and what they wanted: commitment, monogamy, love.

It was an equally momentous moment for the court itself. It took into its hands a process that had played out for decades in less august courtrooms, legislative chambers and voting booths from Maine to Hawaii. What resulted from all that democracy, they reasoned, was a patchwork nation in which couples’ marital status changed as they crossed state lines.

And so Justices Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor

Only with the passing of time, the court majority said, have gay rights come to be ... accepted.

Eurozone officials were bracing for the possibility of a Greek debt default this week after financial ministers rejected Greece’s bid for a credit extension, Reuters reported Saturday.

Greece had asked for the onemonth grace period as a Tuesday deadline loomed for when the government must pay 1.6 billion euros ($1.8 billion) to the International Monetary Fund.

The unanimous refusal came after Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras’ surprise announcement of a referendum on an offer from creditors that his government had rejected.

The Greek Parliament voted early today to hold the referendum next ALEXANDROS VLACHOS, EPA Sunday, the As- Tsipras sociated Press reported.

The swift rejection of a credit extension, Reuters reported, represented a startling demonstration of how Tsipras had alienated the rest of the currency bloc with an 11th-hour announcement that derailed five months of talks.

The euro finance members blocked Greek Financial Minister Yanis Varoufakis from a meeting in Brussels and accused the Athens government of breaking off negotiations, according to Reuters and Wall Street Journal reports.

IMF chief Christine Lagarde said that Greece’s rescue creditors “will continue to work” for a deal, AP reported.

What we know and what we don’t China being called the ‘leading suspect’

Erin Kelly l USA TODAY

WASHINGTON

he biggest and most devastating cyberattack against the U.S. government was revealed this month when the Office of Personnel Management announced that hackers had compromised the personal data of millions of current and former federal employees.

Congress has held five hearings in the past two weeks to try to find out just what happened, but the full impact of the massive attack is still under investigation. Here’s a look at what we know so far.

Q: How many government employees have had their personal information compromised?

A: This remains one of the biggest unanswered questions. OPM Director Katherine Archuleta said the first hack the agency discovered in April involved a breach of the personnel records of about 4.2 million current and former employees. OPM has notified all those people that their data have been compromised.

However, a second separate, but related, data breach was discovered in June as the first was

being investigated. Hackers were able to gain access to records of background check investigations done on current, former and prospective employees who applied for jobs that require a security clearance. Archuleta said OPM and federal investigators are still trying to determine how many people were affected by that attack.

Q: Why has the number of victims been estimated at 18 million in many news reports? v CONTINUED FROM 1B 2B

MALONE , N.Y.

Law enforcement officials, who have already shot and killed one escaped inmate, said Saturday that fellow fugitive David Sweat is probably in bad shape and prone to making a mistake as heavy rains approach and more than a thousand officers press their search for him in a

rugged, 22-square-mile area of dense forests.

The 35-year-old convicted murderer has been on the run since breaking out of a maximum prison three weeks ago with another killer, Richard Matt, 49. But Sweat is now on his own after a U.S. border agent, who flushed out Matt among the tangled vegetation, shot and killed him when he refused to throw down his shotgun, police said.

Franklin County Sheriff Kevin Mulverhill told reporters that Sweat is probably not in good condition after three weeks in the woods with minimal food and shelter.

“He’s going to be tired and he’s going to make a mistake,” Mulverhill said.

Officers have concentrated their search on an area roughly five miles by five miles south of Malone, a town of 15,000 people about 10 miles from the Canadian border.

“If there was not credible evidence that he was in there then we would not have established this perimeter,” the sheriff said.

He added that authorities are not worried about heavy rain that is expected to roll in during the night. “If Mr. Sweat is in there, we’ll find him,” he said.

Matt was serving a 25-yearsto-life sentence for the 1997 kidnapping, torture and hacksaw dismemberment of his boss when he and Sweat cut their way out of the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, N.Y., on June 6.

Sweat was serving a life sentence without parole for killing a sheriff’s deputy.

New York State Police Superintendent Joseph D’Amico said Matt was armed with a 20-gauge shotgun when he was killed.

After son’s death, vice president weighs run for president

Tunisian Prime Minister Habib Essid

Nicole Gaudiano USA TODAY

Vice President Biden has a top concern as he considers whether to run for president: family.

The two-time presidential candidate believes he would offer something unique to the country as president, said supporter Dick Harpootlian, a former South Carolina Democratic Party chairman.

But he said Biden is weighing the needs of his family following the May 30 death of his 46-year-old son Beau, Delaware’s former attorney general.

“He is thinking about (a presidential run),” said Harpootlian, who spoke with Biden on May 19 and has talked more recently with people close to him.

“It’s all about his personal situation — ‘Can I do this and not GETTY IMAGES in any way deny Biden my family what I can give them or do for them?’ This is a decision about his family.”

Biden’s supporters say it would be understandable if he decides to sit out the 2016 presidential campaign. Beau Biden’s death from brain cancer was yet another tragic loss for the 72-year-old vice president. His first wife, Neilia, and 13-month-old daughter Naomi were killed in a December 1972 car accident.

But the vice president has a history of working through overwhelming grief. “No one would blame him if he said, ‘You know, look, it’s just too much,’ ” Harpootlian said. But he added, “He’s a tough guy and he fights his way through tough times.”

“One thing about the vice president that we all know: He’s very resilient,” said William Pierce, executive director of the Draft Biden 2016 super PAC. Biden is expected to announce in August whether he will run.

Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton has a sizable lead in polls.

In a Monmouth University Poll released June 16, Clinton was supported by 57% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters nationwide, compared with 12% for Biden and 12% for Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

Biden would express pride in the Obama administration’s accomplishments if he runs for president, Harpootlian said. But he said Biden realizes some Americans have missed out on the economic recovery because of a financial system that favors the wealthy. “I think he’d spend the next eight years trying to correct that,” he said.

People react Saturday at the site of Friday’s attack in Tunisia, which killed 38 people. The attack at a resort popular with European visitors is likely to hurt the nation’s tourism industry.

3 nations respond after terror attacks Tunisia pledges crackdown; Kuwaiti ruler calls for unity Katharine Lackey USA TODAY

As foreign visitors rushed to leave Tunisia on Saturday after the nation’s deadliest-ever terror attack a day earlier, its leaders vowed to crack down on terrorism.

It was just one of three countries trying to come to grips with terrorism after Islamist assaults also rocked France and Kuwait.

In all, at least 66 people died in the events that occurred just hours apart Friday.

“The fight against terrorism is a national responsibility,” Prime Minister Habib Essid said Saturday as his government announced new measures to combat terror. “We are at war against terrorism which represents a serious danger to national unity.” The Tunisian government will close unsanctioned mosques and organizations that could have ties to Islamic extremism, step up security at tourist spots and deploy troops elsewhere.

Britain said at least 15 of its citizens died in the attack that killed 38 at a beach resort frequented

by European tourists in Sousse.

At least 39 were wounded when the gunman — identified by Essid as Seifeddine Rezgui — opened fire on the beach at the Imperial Marhaba Hotel. He was killed by security forces.

The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack — its second on tourists in the nation this year that’s likely to harm Tunisia’s bustling tourism industry.

The extremist group also said it was behind a suicide bombing that killed 27 during Friday prayers at a Shiite mosque in Kuwait’s capital in the nation’s worst at-

A black female activist in a helmet and climbing gear scaled a flagpole in front of the State Capitol in Columbia, S.C., on Saturday morning and briefly removed a controversial Confederate battle flag.

In a video of the incident, security officers can be heard yelling, “Ma’am, come down off the pole.”

The woman, whom law enforcement identified as Bree Ann Byuarium Newsome, 30, of Raleigh, can be heard saying, “You come against me in the name of hatred, repression and violence. I come against you in the name of God. This flag comes down today.”

After scaling the 30-foot pole and retrieving the flag, she and a male companion were arrested by State Capitol police who waited for her at the bottom inside a small, wrought-iron fence.

As she was being led off in handcuffs, Newsome could be heard reciting the 23rd Psalm.

The flag, which is protected by state law, was hoisted again about 45 minutes later.

Aging system was vulnerable to attack v CONTINUED FROM 2B

A: Members of Congress said FBI Director James Comey told them, in private briefings, that the number of victims is estimated to be 18 million. FBI officials said at a Senate hearing that that number was based on OPM’s own internal memo.

Archuleta said she is not comfortable with that number.

“It is my understanding that the 18 million refers to a preliminary, unverified and approximate number of unique Social Security numbers in the background investigations data,” Archuleta told the Senate homeland security committee. “It is not a number that I feel comfortable, at this time, represents the total number of affected individuals.”

On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz raised the possibility that the actual number of people whose data were breached could be as high as 32 million. He based that assertion on OPM’s 2016 budget request, which says that the agency is the proprietor of personally identifiable information on 32 million federal em-

ployees and retirees.

Q: Have the hackers been identified?

A: Officially, no. Unofficially, yes.

President Obama has not publicly blamed any specific group for the attack. But administration sources have told USA TODAY and other major news outlets that the attack has been linked to Chinese hackers.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., pressed Archuleta on Thursday on why she won’t say that publicly. Archuleta said her agency was not the one to determine that and said she would defer to the State Department.

“Even though it’s all public knowledge that it was China, you’re not ready to tell the committee that you know that it was China that was responsible for the hacking?” McCain asked Archuleta.

However, at a conference that same day, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper did refer to China as “the leading suspect.”

Q: How did the hackers get into OPM’s systems?

The blast also injured 227 people, 40 of whom remained hospitalized Saturday, according to the official Kuwait News Agency.

Conservatives try to regroup Some want to use court rulings to energize base

Kiersten Lucas poses with a cardboard cutout of Hillary Clinton, who’s doing well in polls.

POLL SHOWS CLINTON LEADING ALL REPUBLICANS Hillary Clinton is the heavy favorite to capture the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination — Bernie Sanders’ recent surge in New Hampshire nothwithstanding — and a NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll out last week showed her in a strong position in potential general election matchups as well.

The poll showed her leading each of the top GOP candidates, including Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and Scott Walker, by margins ranging from 8 to 14 points.

This would likely be cause for panic for Republicans if it were October 2016, but of course, the election is still more than 16 months away.

Mary Troyan and Bill Theobald USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Conservatives, their knees buckled by two Supreme Court decisions this week that undercut their agenda, are regrouping and plotting a strategy to use health care and marriage to propel one of their own into the White House in 2016.

“There is sort of that shock of losing. It was not a conservative Supreme Court this week, and that is discouraging to folks,” said Dan Holler, communications director for Heritage Action for America.

“But they also realize that elections are coming up and there is a contested Republican primary.

Most folks we work with and talk to still think there is a real chance to turn things around,” he said.

An anti same-sex marriage demonstrator stands in front of the Supreme Court on June 18.

Heritage Action, the powerful organization of conservative activists, waited just two hours Friday before sending a fundraising email critical of the court’s decision legalizing same sex marriage across the country.

The plea contained a preview of their response on marriage: advocating for legislation to prevent the government from taking ad-

verse action against anyone for their religious belief that marriage should only be between a man and woman.

Holler compared the strategy to how conservatives responded to the Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, when they blocked federal funding for such procedures. “It’s an early way to push back on the decision,” he

ECLECTIC OCCUPATIONS FOR SOME DONORS Earl Holt, the head of a white supremacist group that influenced Dylann Roof, the alleged gunman in the Charleston, S.C., shooting, listed positions like “slumlord” or “retired slumlord” in some political contributions.

Occupations of political donors aren’t always given the closest scrutiny. Melburn Knox, a San Francisco resident who’s given to Democratic Party committees, has listed “pimp daddy” as his job. “I always wonder whether people read that stuff,” he told USA TODAY. TEXAS MAY NOT BE READY TO TURN PURPLE JUST YET Much has been said about how red states in the Southwest may soon become more competitive, given demographic changes.

However, the pro-immigration Partnership for New American Economy released a graphic that suggests it may not be that easy.

In Texas, for example, it would require historically high levels of turnout from Hispanic and AsianAmerican voters and even worse GOP performance among those groups than in 2012 for the state to turn purple by 2020.

However, with modest turnout increases among Hispanic and Asian voters in certain swing states, Democrats would have a virtual lock unless the GOP fares better among those groups.

Supporters of the Affordable Care Act cheer the Supreme Court ruling Thursday upholding subsidies.

BOTH PARTIES TRY TO CASH IN ON OBAMACARE RULING In Supreme Court rulings, there are winners and losers. But when it comes to political fundraising, everybody can win — at least that was the hope of both parties after the court’s health care ruling on Thursday.

Democrats also looked to capitalize. The Senate Majority Fund said it needed funds to keep the GOP from repealing the Affordable Care Act.

said. “We think that’s where this debate is shifting.”

The group is less enthusiastic about a constitutional amendment to limit marriage only to heterosexuals because it is a long and difficult process.

Arizona Republican Rep. Trent Franks, one of the most conservative members of the House, equated the finding of a right to gay marriage in the Constitution to earlier decisions that found a right for people to hold slaves and to perform abortions.

Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, characterized the gay marriage ruling as one involving religious liberty. “Today’s ruling cannot and must not be used to coerce a church or religious institution into performing marriages that their faith does not recognize. We should respect the sincerely held religious views of our fellow citizens, just as we respect those on the winning side of this case,” Priebus said.

The historic conclusion they reached was couched inside its own history lesson, drawing on the nation’s gradual education in what it means to be gay or lesbian. That they released their verdict on June 26 – the same date that the past two landmark gay rights rulings were handed down in 2003 and 2013 – was not lost on historians.

Kennedy noted that for much of the past century, homosexuality was “treated as an illness” and sex between two men or two women as a crime in some states.

Only with the passing of time, the court majority said, have gay rights come to be understood and accepted. The latest – marriage – is but a logical extension.

That notion was deftly explained 18 months ago when district judge Robert Shelby of Utah issued the first of what became a lengthy string of decisions striking down gay marriage bans. It wasn’t that the Constitution was evolving – a notion embraced by the court’s liberals – as much as “the knowledge of what it means to be gay or lesbian,” he said.

That five unelected lawyers from California, Boston and New York City (times three) could take this leap confounded the court’s fourth New Yorker, Justice Antonin Scalia.

“To allow the policy question of same-sex marriage to be considered and resolved by a select, patrician, highly unrepresentative panel of nine is to violate a principle even more fundamental than no taxation without representation,” he wrote in dissent.

“No social transformation without representation.”

The five justices’ willingness to define marriage for the country – particularly those states that still clung to heterosexual marriage only – reflected a desire to fix a history of discrimination that their four colleagues would leave to the democratic process.

Ending the debate by judicial fiat rubbed Chief Justice John Roberts the wrong way. “The court invalidates the marriage laws of more than half the states and orders the transformation of a social institution that has formed the basis of human society for millennia, for the Kalahari Bushmen and the Han Chinese, the Carthaginians and the Aztecs,” he wrote in dissent. “Just who do we think we are?”

But Kennedy said the democratic process, whether helping or hurting the cause, wasn’t relevant when constitutional rights are in play.

“It is of no moment whether advocates of same-sex marriage now enjoy or lack momentum in the democratic process,” he wrote.

French National Front leader Marine Le Pen, who wants her country out of NATO, visits Moscow’s Red Square in May. She has expressed admiration for Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying he has “a vision of the future” needed for Russia’s prosperity.

Russia and Europe’s extremist parties find common cause Opposition to NATO and EU, respect for Putin fuel alliance Oren Dorell USA TODAY

Russia and anti-immigration extremist parties across Europe are forging an unlikely alliance over their shared antipathy for the European Union and NATO and admiration for President Vladimir Putin’s strongman style of leadership.

In Hungary, Prime Minister Viktor Orban of the right-wing Fidesz party has criticized Europe for seeking to isolate Moscow through sanctions over its actions in Ukraine.

Earlier this month, Britain’s far-right U.K. Independence Party (UKIP) along with Hungary’s Jobbik and France’s National Front voted against a European Parliament measure that calls on political parties to report their funding sources, a move that passed and could lift the lid on suspected Russian financial support for political parties across the region.

Washington, says Russia is using far-right parties to make it harder for Europe to form a united policy front toward Russia on issues such as sanctions.

“For the Kremlin, anything that would destabilize the European Union ... would help it pursue its policies in the European neighborhood,” Polyakova said.

UKIP Deputy Leader Paul

Nuttall said the party opposed the political funding legislation only because it is against outside interference in British politics.

“UKIP supports the laws which are already in place in Britain which prohibit foreign funding of political parties,” Nuttal said.

There have been other signs of Russian support. Leaders from about a dozen far-right parties,

Hungarians protest government corruption in April. The prime minister criticized Europe for seeking to isolate Moscow.

including from Germany and Austria, gathered in St. Petersburg in March for a pro-Kremlin summit that sought to promote the “traditional values” of Putin.

And last year, France’s anti-immigrant, EU-sceptic National Front party accepted a $10 million loan from the First Czech Russian Bank while it was campaigning in local elections. The lender is owned by Roman Popov, an oligarch with ties to the Kremlin.

Russia has also appeared to offer support to Europe’s far-left political parties, such as Greece’s ruling Syriza party, currently locked in last-ditch debt talks with its international creditors in Brussels.

However, that support has come in the form of investment projects and trade agreements, and Russia has issued contradictory statements over whether it would be prepared to offer direct financial assistance to Greece.

In January, Syriza called for an end to “artificial divisions and Cold War alliances such as NATO,” though Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras later said breaking with NATO is not in the country’s interest.

Many party leaders have lauded Putin’s leadership style and strong-Russia policies on Ukraine and NATO, which has ramped up military exercises in Eastern Europe.

While UKIP supports British membership in NATO, for example, party leader Nigel Farage has criticized as provocative NATO and European policy supporting Ukraine’s shift away from Russia and toward Europe.

National Front leader Marine Le Pen, a serious contender for the French presidency in 2017 who wants France out of NATO, has repeatedly expressed admiration for Putin, saying he “has principles and a vision of the future that is necessary to ensure Russia’s prosperity.”

Neil Barnett, a Russia expert at London-based Centre for Policy Studies, has written on the think tank’s blog that the aim of proRussian parties in Europe “is to get elected on a reasonablesounding mandate and then break trans-Atlantic ties.”

He said that in the case of the Jobbik opposition party in Hungary, its leader, Gabor Vona, has spoken of fostering relations with Russia, Germany and Turkey, but not with the United States.

Russia’s backing of anti-immigration parties comes as Russia has been supportive of the Syrian regime of Bashar Assad, whose bloody execution of a civil war there has prompted millions to flee, many of them to Europe.

“It’s ironic that anti-EU nationalist parties are using EU institutions, particularly the EU parliament, to push through their agenda, which by definition is against the very institutions in which they so actively participate and find support,” the Atlantic Council’s Polyakova said.

Switzerland slow in combating money laundering Despite scandals, new laws, some turn blind eye to rules Helena Bachmann Special for USA TODAY

The FIFA corruption scandal is prompting fresh moves to stem money laundering in Switzerland, but the nation long known as a haven for hiding money may be slow to change.

The Swiss government announced new measures this month following the investigation of soccer’s governing body to tighten control over real estate transactions, the commodities industry, foundations and free ports — areas at high risk for laundering schemes that aren’t covered under current law.

Even with improved oversight, scrubbing the nation of all financial corruption is likely to prove difficult. “We still have a long way to go before we can control financial flows,” said Jean-Pierre Méan, president of the Swiss chapter of Transparency International.

As the U.S. and Swiss inquiry into corruption charges at FIFA continues, investigators here are looking into 53 counts of possible money laundering and 104 suspicious bank transactions linked to bidding contests for the 2018 and GENEVA

2022 World Cup. A law that goes into effect next year will allow top executives of sporting federations — like those arrested in the FIFA case — to be designated as “politically exposed persons,” subjecting them to greater financial scrutiny. FIFA and 60 other international sports organizations with headquarters in Switzerland are currently exempt from anti-corruption laws.

If experience is any indication, however, the changes may fall short because financial institutions here have been known to turn a blind eye to regulations.

Even though Switzerland has had anti-money laundering legislation since 1997, tens of millions of dollars in illicit assets have trickled into Swiss banks in recent years.

An investigation this year into money laundering at an HSBC branch in Geneva revealed the bank knowingly broke the law and accepted illegal funds from arms dealers and blood diamond traders. Other recent moneylaundering cases include undeclared millions stashed in an account belonging to Luis Barcenas, a Spanish politician implicated in a corruption scandal, as well as money placed by Malaysian official Abdul Taib Mahmud, which authorities traced back to criminal activities.

“The banks can get away with being negligent and give in to

The government conceded in a June report that the country’s banks, which house around $2.1 trillion, or 34%, of offshore wealth, “are not immune to fraud, embezzlement, corruption” and other crimes mostly committed abroad.

“We’ve got to start enforcing (the laws) we have” on money laundering.

Gretta Fenner, managing director of Switzerland’s Basel Institute for Governance

“This is astonishing, because Switzerland has been struggling for years to get rid of the stigma as a money-laundering haven,” says Mark Pieth, an anti-corruption adviser to the World Bank and a criminal law professor at the University of Bern.

Fenner said the way to stave off money-laundering attempts is obvious: “We’ve got to start enforcing (the laws) we have. I don’t think we are doing enough of that in Switzerland.”

BUSINESS SURVEILLANCE CHINA CUTS RATES In a nutshell: China’s central bank cut its benchmark shortterm interest rate by a quarter point to 4.85% on Saturday, its fourth reduction since November, as policymakers work to make borrowing more affordable and to combat a slowing economy.

The leader: The People’s Bank of China also slashed its oneyear benchmark deposit interest rate by a quarter point to 2%, the bank announced in a statement on its website. The new rates are effective Sunday.

The money: Investors had been anticipating an interestrate move by the bank, but its timing was likely speeded up after China’s stock market plummeted 20% in the past two weeks. Stay tuned.

The ruling could add $20,000 to more than $250,000 in lifetime benefits to same-sex couples.

Robert Powell

Special to USA TODAY

Heterosexual married couples have long been able to use Social Security claiming strategies — such as file and suspend and restricted claim — to maximize their household’s benefits.

But since Friday’s historic Supreme Court decision recognizing same-sex partners’ marriages as a constitutional right, those couples will be able to use the same benefit-boosting strategies, including benefits for spouses, exspouses and survivors of deceased workers, as straight married couples.

And the financial benefits could be immense, according to a report by Financial Engines, a Sunnyvale, Calif.-based investment advisory firm. In fact, the ruling could add anywhere from $20,000 to more than $250,000 in lifetime benefits to same-sex couples, says Christopher Jones, chief investment officer at Financial Engines. Others agree.

From a Social Security-claiming perspective, “these unions ... will be no different than traditional marriages,” says Stephen Stellhorn, president and CEO of MSM Capital Management in Tampa. “Not understanding the basics of Social Security could cause you to leave thousands of dollars on the table over your lifetime.”

In a case study, Financial Engines examined how much in additional benefits one same-sex couple would be eligible for.

In one scenario, Financial Engines profiles a fictitious couple — Henry, age 64, (current salary $80,000), and Logan, age 62 (who has had a lower-paying job interrupted by taking several years off ). If Henry dies at 84 and Logan dies at 90 they would receive total Social Security benefits of $797,280 as two single people if they start collecting benefits at ages 64 and 62.

But if Henry and Logan claim Social Security as a married couple, their lifetime benefits would grow to $938,112, an increase of $140,832. That’s because Logan can now receive spousal and survivor benefits based on Henry’s higher earnings history.

And if Henry and Logan optimize when they claim Social Security they would get more than $1.1 million, some $202,176 more than if they claimed at ages 64 and 62. How would they do that?

With the “file-and-suspend” claiming strategy. According to Jones, Henry, at age 68, would file for earned benefits and immediately suspend — not take — them.

That would let Logan receive spousal benefits while Henry’s earned benefits continue to grow.

At 66, Logan files for spousal benefits, but also files a restricted application to exclude earned benefits. At 70, Henry starts collecting earned benefits. And at 70, Logan switches to earned benefits.

JOSH EDELSON, BLOOMBERG

KEEP IN MIND

So given all that, what advice do experts have for same-sex couples?

LEARN WHAT’S AT STAKE.

Just like heterosexual married couples, same-sex married couples should learn what Social Security benefits are available to them and start analyzing how to optimize their household’s overall benefits, Jones says.

VISIT THE SITE.

Visit the Social Security Administration’s website for same-sex couples — ssa.gov/people/ same-sexcouples/. That site offers information about the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and Social Security, Supplemental Security Income and surviving spouse claims.

John Lewis, left, and his husband, Stuart Gaffney, plaintiffs in the 2008 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) case, hold flags and a sign reading "Love is Supreme" outside San Francisco City Hall after the U.S. Supreme Court samesex marriage ruling on Friday.

DON’T RELY ONLY ON SOCIAL SECURITY.

Kurt Czarnowski of Czarnowski Consulting in Norfolk, Mass., says he would give any married couple the same advice: “Recognize that Social Security provides a base of financial protection that was never intended to be someone’s sole source of income in retirement,” he says. Use the planning tools that are available to help understand what Social Security will provide, and then take steps to supplement what the program will provide. For the average worker, the Social Security payment is only intended to replace about 40% of pre-retirement earnings.

KEEP ON WORKING.

According to Czarnowski, Social Security retirement benefits are calculated by averaging someone’s highest-earning 35 years of work — regardless of when they occur. “As long as someone continues to work and pay into the system, and their earnings are higher than the lowest of the 35 years that Social Security had been using to calculate their benefit, then the person’s benefit will increase,” he says. “And after full retirement age, work never hurts, because additional earnings at a low amount will not cause a reduction in the benefit amount.”

Digital divide decreasing but not gone

Elizabeth Weise USA TODAY

The digital divide in the United States has decreased significantly since 2000. Rates of Internet use and the advantages it brings have increased significantly across the entire population.

But those without high school diplomas, African-Americans, Hispanics and people living in lower-income households still lag when it comes to accessing the online world.

As of 2015, 84% of American adults use the Internet, a survey released Friday by the Pew Research Center found.

Those living in households earning more than $75,000 and English-speaking Asian Americans have the highest rates of Internet use, at 97%.

Next came Americans aged 18 to 29, at 96% and college-educated adults at 95%.

“There are two broad trends in these data,” said Maeve Duggan, a research associate at the Pew Research Center. “The first is that the groups traditionally leading the way in tech adoption – the young, highly educated and relatively well off – are now nearly all internet users.”

But while groups traditionally less likely to be early adopters have steadily increased their Internet use, “digital differences still remain,” she said.

In 2015, 66% of people who hadn’t completed high school were online. That’s up from just 19% in 2000 but still lags significantly from the 95% of college educated Americans who are.

Hispanics and African-Americans are somewhat less likely

As of 2015, 84% of American adults use the Internet.

than whites and English-speaking Asian-Americans to be online.

Among Hispanics, 81% are online. For African-Americans, the figure is 78%. Eighty-five percent of whites are online.

Men and women have achieved parity when it comes to Internet use, with 85% of men and 84% of women reporting they are online.

Americans who live in rural areas are slightly less likely to be online than their suburban or urban compatriots, 78% as compared to 85% for city and suburban dwellers. Seniors have increased their Internet use significantly. In 2000 just 14% of those 65 and older were online.

Today that figure is 58%.

The results are from a compilation of 97 surveys and more than 229,000 interviews conducted by Pew Research Center from March 2000 to May 2015.

RETIREMENT

Couples should discuss visions of retirement Nanci Hellmich USA TODAY

Couples don’t always have the same dreams for retirement, and it usually takes some negotiating to come to terms with what they’re going to do.

When couples have different ideas about retirement, they need to lay everything out on the table and both partners need to say what’s important to them and discuss whether they can afford to do it, says Pepper Schwartz, AARP’s love and relationship expert.

“For lack of a better word, couples need to do some horse trading — ‘I’ll give you this, if you give me that.’ You really have to negotiate in good faith. Maturity and communication skills are very important,” says Schwartz, a professor of sociology at the University of Washington.

Many of the decisions are going to be based on your financial situation, she says. Some people may have enough money to do what they’d like, while many others are going to struggle to maintain their quality of life, she says.

Schwartz has heard lots of stories from couples who’ve figured it out. Take the husband who wanted to live in Italy, and his wife, who liked American city life. They compromised and go to Italy for a month each summer.

Or the wife who wanted to spend a lot of time visiting their children and grandchildren, and he wanted to do other types of travel, so they’re trying to do both while also working part-time to help cover the costs.

And there’s the wife who is enjoying her volunteer job exercising animals for the Humane Society while her husband is at home doing his hobbies. They enjoy doing their own activities and still make time for each other.

For many people, the negotiations begin with a discussion of when to retire. One spouse may want or need to work a little longer while the other one is ready to call it quits, Schwartz says.

It’s important to talk, talk and then talk some more, says Mary Karapetian Alvord, a psychologist in Rockville, Md.

HE

imagines summers spent fly-fishing in a cold mountain lake and winters by the fire reading his favorite books.

SHE

envisions summers playing with the grandchildren in their backyard and winters volunteering for her favorite charities.

TALKING POINTS TO CONSIDER Some suggestions for couples who are negotiating their retirement dreams:

CREATE A LIST OF CHARACTERISTICS FOR RETIREMENT that

each spouse desires, Frank Farley, a psychologist at Temple University, says. Categories could include physical living arrangements, the type of cultural or sporting events you want to attend, exercise activities you’d like to do, volunteer work and desired proximity to loved ones.

Mary Karapetian Alvord, a psychologist in Rockville, Md., agrees.

She advises creating a long list of possibilities for retirement and then going through it together and evaluating what you each really want to do.

TALK WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS who would have an interest in your decisions, Farley says.

“The role of family, loved ones and friends is often crucial.”

PRUDENTLY PRUNE YOUR RETIREMENT DREAM LIST. Have “a give-

and-take where each agrees to compromise, or the dream of retirement becomes a nightmare,” Farley says.

“Each must realize this may be a final move, a lifechanging deliberation against an unforgiving clock.”

CARVE OUT SOME SPECIAL TIME WHEN YOU JUST LISTEN TO EACH OTHER, or take turns

“For lack of a better word, couples need to do some horse trading. ... You really have to negotiate in good faith.”

Pepper Schwartz, AARP’s love and relationship expert

Talk about everything, including your expectations for retirement, your “want to-do list” and your “need to-do list.” Talk about what your new schedule will look like, how you’re going to divvy up tasks and how your identity is going to change, she says.

As you are going through this new stage and adapting to it, you have to use several basic social skills: Negotiate, compromise, take turns and share, Alvord says.

Fortunately, marriages that

have survived to the point of retirement usually have involved the negotiation of a lifetime of differences, and spouses have often grown closer in their preferences and more like each other, says Frank Farley, a psychologist at Temple University.

“Splitting up over retirement decisions would be quite rare.

Usually neither spouse wants to walk away to a solitary retirement. That would be a scary prospect for most.”

doing something that the other person really likes, Alvord says.

You may not share the interest, but you can still participate in it with your spouse.

TELL YOUR SPOUSE HOW MUCH YOU APPRECIATE

what they’re doing and offering you at this stage of life, Alvord says. If they garden then say, “I really love that you garden because I enjoy looking at it.”

Or if they walk or bike with you, then tell them how much you enjoy doing that with them.

Most workers saving for retirement in a 401(k) plan aren’t following the time-honored advice to rebalance their portfolios, the process of rejiggering the portfolio back to the mix of stocks, bonds and cash established as a blueprint. In fact, just 15% of defined contribution retirement plan participants rebalanced in 2014, according to Aon Hewitt’s analysis of 138 defined contribution plans, representing 3.5 million eligible workers.

WHY REBALANCE?

“If you believe that asset allocation is the best way for most investors — and advisers — to manage risk in a portfolio, disciplined rebalancing needs to be an integral part of the investment process,” says Brian Ullsperger, a certified investment management analyst at Andersen Tax in McLean, Va. Others agree.

“Having a ‘rebalancing strategy’ and sticking to it over time is extremely important because it tends to reduce your tail risk and can lead to improved risk-adjusted returns,” says Christian Koch, a certified private wealth adviser with KAM South in Atlanta.

John Nersesian, a

It’s not as hard as you think and it may be more crucial than you know

certified investment management analyst with Nuveen Investments in Chicago, says, “rebalancing can provide a modest increase in returns, but is most effective at reducing volatility — a key to success during retirement distribution.”

Another reason to rebalance: Your risk tolerance, time horizon or investment goals have changed, says Ron Surz, a certified investment management analyst and president of Target Date Solutions in San Clemente, Calif.

SET A TARGET ALLOCATION.

Your goal is to save as much as possible and to give this savings the opportunity to grow through investment, says Dan Galli, a certified financial planner in Norwell, Mass. “ You need to decide what level of ‘excitement,’ otherwise known as market volatility, you are willing to live with,” Galli says.

“This will determine the percentage of stocks that should make up your account.”

Conservative investors must be willing to accept lower long-term average returns because they are taking on less risk, while aggressive investors who are seeking higher potential returns must be willing to accept greater volatility.

“Most participants fall somewhere between,” Galli says.

SET THRESHOLDS.

“Once you have set your asset allocation don’t allow your portfolio to drift too far from your targets,” says GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

Jorie Pitt, a certified financial planner with AHC Advisors in St. Charles, Ill. “The consequence can be a portfolio that is more conservative or aggressive then you originally put in place.”

Pitt says the need to rebalance will be dictated by market conditions. “Once your portfolio allocations have drifted a certain percentage from your original targets — say 10% or 20% — then you should rebalance.”

SET TARGET DATES.

Another way to go about rebalancing: Do so according to a predetermined schedule, say once per year, once every six months, or once every quarter.

“If you have to do it yourself, annually may be the way to go,” says Galli, who always suggests late January. Why? “I have all my end-of-the-year statements available to review,” he says.

But even if you don’t use this method, consider setting specific times throughout the year when you’ll check to see if your portfolio needs to be rebalanced. “You don’t want to check your asset allocation every day or every week because you want to give the market movements time to even out,” says Pitt, who warns that rebalancing too often leads to higher trading costs.

SET IT AND FORGET IT.

If you don’t want to create a rebalancing plan or you’re having trouble sticking to your plan, you’ve got options. One, invest in a target-date, target-risk or balanced fund that automatically rebalances. “Simplify the asset allocation and rebalancing decision,” says Randy Bruns, a certified financial planner with HighPoint

“The beauty of rebalancing is that it forces you to buy low and sell high, something that is often hard for us to do.”

Jorie Pitt, a certified financial planner with AHC Advisors

Planning Partners in Downers Grove, Ill. “That means using single-fund solutions or model portfolios if available. These funds likely hold a more diverse allocation than you can build on your own ... and they automatically rebalance so you don’t have to.”

Two, sign up — if your plan has this feature — to have your portfolio automatically rebalanced by the plan provider.

SEE THE FOREST, NOT THE TREES.

Don’t try to find the absolute best strategy. Instead, pick one and use it. “There’s no clear evidence that one particular rebalancing strategy works better than another,” Bruns says. “Decide upon a strategy and stick with it.”

BUY LOW, SELL HIGH.

When it comes to the actual act of rebalancing, there are a couple ways to go about it. One, says Pitt, sell off some of what has done well — since it will be above your original target allocation — and then purchase some of what has not done as well — since it will be below your original target allocation.

“The beauty of rebalancing is that it forces you to buy low and sell high, something that is often hard for us to do,” Pitt says.

There are consequences. A 50/ 50 stock-to-bond allocation in the early 2000s, unchecked, became a 70/30 allocation by 2008, Ullsperger notes. “That is far more risk than originally planned for and probably more than required,” he says. “As investors found out, if they don’t rebalance, Mr. Market does it for them, often with far more painful results.”

Jayhawks all set to begin adventure

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Let Kansas University’s overseas basketball adventure begin. ...

KU/Team USA’s 12 players plus the injured Devonté Graham, four coaches and six support staff members early this morning were to fly from Kansas City International to Detroit, on to Seoul, South Korea. Then they were to board a train to Gwangju with an arrival time at World University Games Village about 2 a.m., Korea time, Tuesday.

“Detroit to Seoul is roughly 13-14 hours. Coach (Bill) Self is already loading up on movies and those things for the trip,” said Fred Quartlebaum, KU director of student-athlete development.

He will work as assistant coach with Jerrance Howard and video coordinator James Cox during the July 3-14 Games in Gwangju. KU assistants Norm Roberts and Kurtis Townsend and director of operations Brennan Bechard remain in Lawrence for the July recruiting period.

“It should be a fun time. I think it will be a great time for us to just bond even on that long flight,” Quartlebaum added.

Each apartment suite in the Village will sleep up to seven members of the traveling party.

“We’re just honored and thrilled to be over there.

I’m sure there will be little hiccups along the way (regarding practice gym availability). We’re going to be excited and engage ourselves every single day we’re there,” Quartlebaum said.

The Jayhawks will play an exhibition game against China at 3 a.m., Central time, Thursday, then tip it up for real against Turkey at 10 p.m., Central time, Friday, with that game on ESPNU. “This is fun,” Self said of the upcoming trip. “Seventeen days is a long time to be all serious. We’ll do different things all the time.

We’ll say, ‘Guys, hey be on time, represent yourself and us right and let’s go have some fun.’’’

Self said coaches would scout opponents’ games, but will go into the opener against Turkey with no scouting report.

“We have no idea on rosters, none of that stuff. Even if we did have rosters how would you know what No. 13, his strengths and weaknesses are?” Self said. “We’re not going to be able to pronounce many names. The hardest game to prepare for is the first one, Turkey.

“We won’t have any book on them. We would not have seen them until we get there and they play a game,” Self said. “We may ask other coaches. After that, everybody we play we’d seen play.

We’ll have a decent book on teams but not the first game.”

The players when they are not practicing and sightseeing will be working on assignments in a class on Korean culture they’ve been taking the last three weeks on campus.

“What a great opportunity to put a curriculum together for our guys so when they get over there, they will have a sense of understanding of the culture of Korea,” Quartlebaum said, noting KU’s academic support staff came up with the idea of a class for credit hours.

“The great thing is spending time in the classroom,

Two victories twice as nice for Inglis

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Depending on the day, the course and the competition, cyclist Gwen Inglis sometimes takes an extraordinary approach to her race day.

Saturday at the Tour of Lawrence’s Haskell Campus Criterium Races, Inglis check-marked all the appropriate boxes and entered two events: the women’s masters, for cyclists 40 or older, and the women’s pro race. The feat seemed all the more impressive once she took first place in both.

“Thankfully in this case there was enough time between the races that I was able to put my legs up for a while and take a little nap and have some lunch and that kind of thing,” the smiling Lakewood, Colorado, racer said after cruising to a morning victory, then holding off Britta Siegel, Laurel Ledbetter, Anne Meyer and Katherine Kelter in her

ing for eight hours in the car (Friday), I thought, ‘Maybe I need to get out there and flush some of the junk out of the legs.’”

Inglis didn’t pump a fist or even acknowledge her second victory upon crossing the finish line, because she felt Siegel and the rest of the pack breathing down her neck.

“I didn’t know how close they were, so I didn’t want to take any chances,” she said of celebrating and possibly coming in second. “That’d be a little embarrassing.”

Inglis and her husband Michael try to make the Tour of Lawrence a staple of their yearly schedule. She won the John Young/Journal-World Photo Kansas University campus GWEN INGLIS LEADS THE WOMEN’S PRO RACE during the Tour of race in 2014, as well as the Lawrence Haskell Criterium on Saturday at Haskell Indian Nations downtown criterium in 2011.

Self-improvement Bragg’s priority

By Tom Keegan Twitter: @TomKeeganLJW

The first thing that stands out about Carlton Bragg, the McDonald’s All-American out of Cleveland in his freshman season for the Kansas University basketball team, is his height.

Unlike most college basketball players, Bragg appears taller on the court than in the program, which lists him at 6-foot-9.

“Everyone tells me I look taller in person,” Bragg said after KU’s Friday night exhibition victory against Canada.

Bragg thinks he knows why he hears that so much.

“I continued growing throughout high school and I’m like 6-10, 6-11,” he said.

Please see HOOPS, page 3C When he attempts to es-

tablish position inside, he can look like a player whose body hasn’t quite caught up with his growth spurt.

He’s a little too vertical and too easy for older, stronger players to shove across the lane, as was the case vs.

Canada.

“It’s getting there,” Bragg said of his body tolerating the growth. “The hardest part about it is having knee pains. Playing through the pain. I’m still icing them.”

It’s possible Bragg hasn’t stopped growing.

“I don’t know,” he said.

“That’s a good question. I’ll keep you updated though.”

Polite, personable, eager to please. That’s always Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo subject to change once the hero worship hits him in KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD CARLTON BRAGG, RIGHT, pulls up for a three as the Jayhawks warm up prior to tipoff against Team Canada on Friday night at Sprint Please see BRAGG, page 3C Center in Kansas City, Missouri.

Stigler takes fourth in 400-meter final

BRIEFLY Eugene, Ore. — Kansas senior Michael Stigler came just fractions of a second from punching his ticket to the World Championships as he finished fourth in the 400-meter hurdle final Saturday at the USA Championships.

Stigler, who entered the weekend as the fourth-ranked American in the 400-meter hurdles this year, was looking to claim a spot on Team USA’s contingent at the World Championships to be held in Beijing in August. That would have required a top-three finish in the event final that featured the three-fastest hurdlers in the world this year.

Stigler clocked in with a time of 48.96.

The 21-year-old Lavogez, France’s third-youngest player, ran up to the spot and kicked the ball to Angerer’s left. The 2013 FIFA Women’s Player of the Year — the first goalkeeper male or female to win the honor — dove and blocked the ball with her left knee.

German coach Silvia Neid sighed heavily after the match: “Such a game as this, which was so tough, when you win it that makes you very confident. But we had to play for 120 minutes, we have some injured players we have to rest.”

Like the Americans, Germany has two World Cup titles, in 2003 and ’07. The United States is seeking its first championship since 1999.

CYCLISTS COMPETING IN THE MEN’S MASTERS 40 PLUS AND MEN’S MASTERS 50-59 RACES head down a straightaway adjacent to Haskell Stadium during the Tour of Lawrence Haskell Criterium on Saturday at Haskell Indian Nations University.

climbing,” Inglis said, “but there are a lot of turns and some of them are just really flowing. I found the course a lot of fun.”

Today, she’ll try to win a downtown title to make it three first-place finishes for the weekend.

“We’ll see what we can do, but now I’m kind of marked,” Inglis said.

“They’ll be watching for me.”

Bryan Duvall, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, could have the same issue downtown today after winning the men’s pro race.

Duvall’s neon yellow jersey made him easy to spot as he sprinted toward the finish line Saturday afternoon. Michael Giem and Ryan Gabriel stayed right on top of him, as a swarm of 10 racers all eyed the title in the final sprint down Indian Avenue. Duvall ever so

“When you have enough of those close calls throughout the years,” Duvall said, “you just know. You know?

I was watching (Giem) come up my right side the whole entire time — we kind of look out of our peripheral vision. I knew it was gonna be close

and the line was coming pretty quick. But he was charging hard, too.

I just knew when we got there… He had kind of the dejected look and I had the more positive outlook, so that kind of tells you, too.”

Duvall, 43, considers himself a “premature” sprinter, meaning he prefers charging into the final turn, instead of out of it. He calls his top-end speed “mediocre” compared to some of his con-

temporaries. So he went all out, headed north on Perimeter Road on the last lap, and reached the front of the pack before the 14th and final turn of the course.

“If you can get to the corner first, it puts a little distance between you and the rest of the group,” said Duvall, of the Soundpony Triad Bank team. “It gives you a little bit of a buffer.”

For Duvall, a runner-up in the downtown criterium in 2012, the breathing room made all the difference for the home stretch, as seven other racers finished within a second of him.

The Haskell route, different from the typical KU setup, attracted Duvall to Saturday’s race.

“If I come at all it’s usually just for the downtown crit,” he said.

“But when I heard that this course had so many corners and it wasn’t the usual hill-climb, it sounded like it suited my style and it sounded feasible.”

big doses and the recruiters for agents try to fill his head with notions of getting to the NBA as quickly as possible and making not getting hurt the primary goal of college basketball. Clearly a sharp thinker, Bragg is more equipped to see through all the nonsense and make self-improvement a priority over selfadoration. He already understands that playing well against college basketball players is tougher than it looks on television.

Bragg answered quickly when asked if any Kansas player is far better than he thought he looked on TV. “Perry Ellis. Perry Ellis,” Bragg repeated. “I didn’t know he was that good, that strong, that quick. Watching him on TV you know he’s competitive, but playing against him is a lot tougher. And he’s a great guy in the locker room.”

As for what makes Ellis difficult to guard, Bragg said, “His quickness, his strength, his mobility, everything. Everything about him is strong. And he’s real good in the locker room too. He’s helped me a lot in the weight room, telling me to do extra reps.”

The second thing that stands out about the longarmed, slender Bragg, is how comfortable he looks shooting jumpshots with such smooth mechanics.

His soft touch from the perimeter commands respect from the defense.

But pay too much attention to his scoring ability and he’ll instantly find the open man on the inside, as he did setting up Jamari Traylor with a beautiful feed in the first game. He also brings considerable dribbling skills for a man so young and so tall.

Look for Kansas to run with regularity pick-

and-pop plays to utilize Bragg’s soft perimeter touch.

“Pick and pop, that’s my shot,” Bragg said. “I get mad when I miss it because I work on it every day. Elbow jumper. It doesn’t matter if anyone’s in front of me. I just stay in rhythm.”

His height, high release and the lift he gets on his jumper make the shot so difficult to block. Knowing that, Bragg doesn’t let a defender’s presence force him to bypass the shot or shoot it too quickly. Guarded or unguarded, Bragg looks the same shooting.

At the moment, Bragg has a more developed perimeter game than in the post and he’s not in denial about that.

“My strength,” he said when asked where he needs to make the most improvement. “A lot of people say I’m strong. A lot of people say I’m not strong. I take it as I’m not strong at all. And people try to take advantage of that.”

In some ways, Bragg recalls Rudy Gay as a freshman at UConn, when he averaged 11.4 points and 5.4 rebounds a game. In other ways, Horace Grant in his early years at Clemson is a decent comparison.

Like most freshmen, Bragg won’t be able to turn his considerable potential into production on a nightly basis, but on those nights it clicks, he’ll be a load to defend.

He and the rest of the Jayhawks are fortunate to have had the extra practices in advance of the trip to Korea, as well as the games vs. international competition.

How soon will Bragg develop into a good basketball player?

“I think it’ll be quick,” Ellis predicted after the first exhibition vs. Canada. “I really like his game.

He was out there hustling. He played a great game. Real skilled also.

Bright future for him.”

l Cliff to play for Nets: Former KU forward Cliff Alexander, who was not selected in the 2015 NBA Draft, will play for the Brooklyn Nets for their Summer League teams in both Orlando and Las Vegas.

The New York Post’s Tim Bontemps writes: “It’s unusual for an undrafted player to play for one organization in both summer leagues — a sign the Nets could have interest in bringing Alexander to training camp and possibly beyond, and perhaps having given him some guaranteed money, though there was no confirmation of that.”

“Brooklyn could have interest in keeping him beyond that (summer league),” Tweeted Jeremy Woo of Sports Illustrated.

Yanks hammer Houston The Associated Press

American League Yankees 9, Astros 6 Houston — Brian McCann hit a grand slam and Chris Young homered to give New York an early lead, and Mark Teixeira had a tiebreaking two-run double in the eighth after the Yankees squandered that cushion in a win over Houston on Saturday.

McCann’s slam came in the first. A two-run shot by Young, a Houston native, that extended his hitting streak to a careerhigh 10 games, in the second off Houston starter Brett Oberholtzer put the Yankees up 6-0.

Oberholtzer was ejected with one out in the second inning for throwing at Alex Rodriguez and the Astros got going on offense after that.

Chris Carter and George Springer each drove in a run in the second before Carter homered in the fourth to cut it to 6-3.

Rookie Carlos Correa hit a two-run homer in the fifth and Jose Altuve connected on the next atbat to tie it up.

SSSHHH: Serena is halfway to Slam

By Howard Fendrich AP Tennis Writer

Serena Williams heads to Wimbledon halfway to a Grand Slam.

If it were up to her, no one would notice.

Williams prefers to downplay her chances of becoming the first tennis player in more than a quarter-century to win all four major tournaments — Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, U.S. Open — in the same season.

“I haven’t done well at Wimbledon recently, so that’s the only one that’s kind of eluding me,” Williams said, managing to keep a straight face and perhaps hoping to convince herself as much as anyone who might be listening. “So I’m trying to get to that one, at least make it deep in the second week of that tournament.”

When play begins at the grass-court Grand Slam tournament Monday, Williams will be ranked No. 1, and seeded No. 1, and there is zero doubt that she is far and away the best tennis player on the planet at the moment. Indeed, she might very well be the best in history, a debate that can never be settled on a court, of course.

Already the Year of the Triple Crown in horse racing, 2015 could wind up being the Year of the Grand Slam in tennis and golf, with Jordan Spieth halfway to a 4-for-4 calendar year

at his sport’s major championships.

In tennis, only two men and three women have ever done it.

The last man was Rod Laver in 1969. The last woman was Steffi Graf in 1988.

“Why not?” said Williams’ coach, Patrick Mouratoglou.

“That’s probably the most difficult thing to do in tennis. But

it’s possible.”

There are others who could win Wimbledon, of course, challengers such as 2004 champion Maria Sharapova, twotime winner Petra Kvitova or 2013 runner-up Sabine Lisicki.

But as 18-time major champion and ESPN analyst Chris Evert put it when discussing Williams: “I mean, it’s all up to

her. When she is at her best, she is better than anybody else.”

With a versatile and dangerous serve, and powerful groundstrokes, Williams’ game translates quite well to the slick surface at the All England Club, where she has won the championship five times: 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010 and 2012. She also was the runner-up twice.

And yet, here is what Williams had to say shortly after winning the French Open for her 20th Grand Slam trophy and third in a row: “To be perfectly honest, I’ve never really liked grass, and I just don’t know how I’ve done so well on it.”

On her past two trips to Wimbledon, Williams bowed out in the fourth round in 2013, and the third round in 2014.

“The monkey’s on my back. ... I just consistently do terrible there,” Williams insisted, in just a bit of hyperbole.

“Now that it’s a slower surface,” Williams said, “it’ll help me out a little bit.”

Seems safe to say, actually, the speed doesn’t matter.

Nor does the opponent.

What’s really important when it comes to the 33-yearold Williams is how she’s playing and if she is motivated to win.

As she showed during her comeback-filled run at Roland Garros, she can summon the skill and the will to turn any match in her favor, even on her worst days.

“Serena has seemed late in

her career ... to be mentally tougher than she’s ever been,” said John McEnroe, a seventime major champion who will be analyzing Wimbledon matches for ESPN. A year ago at the All England Club, Williams departed under odd circumstances. She lost in the third round of singles to 25th-seeded Alize Cornet, then pulled out three games into a doubles match after appearing disoriented. Williams later blamed an illness.

She has not lost at a Grand Slam tournament since.

That’s a 21-match winning streak, from New York last September, to Melbourne in January, to Paris this month.

Williams is the first woman to win three consecutive majors since — big surprise here — she took four in a row for a self-styled “Serena Slam” in 2002-03.

As for the possibility of completing a true Grand Slam or eventually surpassing Graf’s total of 22 majors, Williams is not all that keen about contemplating such milestones.

“I’m still playing, and when you’re still playing, you’re not thinking, ‘Well, I’m here in the history books, and soon I’ll be there.’ Because then you’ve become really satisfied,” she said.

“And seeing that I’m the kind of person that I want to continue to play well, and I want to continue to win matches, I don’t want to be satisfied. I want to keep going.”

“NUPENNY’S LAST STAND,” AN ART INSTALLATION MADE TO LOOK LIKE A RETRO TOY STORE created by Wichita artist Randy Regier, is part of the Spencer Museum of Art’s At Large program, a series of community art events going on while the museum is closed for renovations.

lot of folks were scratching their heads after a mysterious structure resembling an old-timey toy store sprung up seemingly overnight in an East Lawrence industrial park just over a week ago.

Spencer Museum of Art remains active during renovations with ‘NuPenny’s Last Stand’

By Joanna Hlavacek • Twitter: @hlavacekjoanna

Those who happened to stumble upon the mid-centurystyle monolith posted pictures on social media and soon word began to spread. More and more people stopped by to see it in person but weren’t sure what to make of the thing.

Eventually, the Spencer Museum of Art joined in on the fun, teasing its Facebook and Twitter followers with mentions of a “NuPenny” toy shop accompanied by images of the East Lawrence structure while holding off on giving away its exact location.

“Has anyone in Lawrence spotted a #NuPenny Toy Store?” read a coy Facebook post from the museum on Tuesday.

Clues were being dropped like bread crumbs. But no answers were given until Saturday, when Wichita artist Randy Regier set up shop at the “NuPenny Home Office” in front of the Lawrence Arts Center to interact with curious Free State Festival attendees and draw maps leading to his creation.

Titled “NuPenny’s Last Stand,” the quasi-toy shop located at a dead end of 19th Street in Lawrence VenturePark is actually a traveling art installation made by Regier that has popped up in a similarly unexpected manner all over the country, leaving visitors to decipher why and how it got there.

Saturday’s event — and the installation’s unspecified run in Lawrence — is part of the Spencer Museum’s At Large program, which will continue while the museum is closed until renovations wrap up in mid-2016.

Over the next year, Spencer staffers hope to keep the public engaged with a full schedule of offsite programming and events that include artist talks, performances and familiar kidfriendly favorites like Art Cart and Saturday Art Adventures.

Margaret Perkins-McGuinness, the museum’s director of external affairs, has helped to spearhead At Large since the galleries closed in April.

Is Netflix taking over TV and movies?

SCENE A STEALERS prequel to one of the biggest cult comedy classics of the last 20 years is out on July 31, only it won’t be released in theaters.

And, unlike its predecessor, it’s not a movie.

Unless you binge watch all eight episodes in a row. Which people do.

A lot. And in that case, it would be a really long movie but still not as long as “The Hobbit” trilogy.

“Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp” is a limited-run series debuting on Netflix that takes place before the events of 2001’s “Wet Hot American Summer,” an ‘80s throwback indie comedy that didn’t even crack $300,000 in its small theatrical run. It’s fitting, I suppose, that its revival as a property should also happen outside the walls of movie theaters.

Back in 2001, Paul Rudd hadn’t been cast as “Ant-Man” yet, Amy Poehler hadn’t started “Parks and Recreation” yet, and Bradley Cooper hadn’t even been in a movie yet. The new series sports all of those returning cast members, plus Jon Hamm, Kristen Wiig, Jason Schwartzman, John Slattery and Chris Pine.

Like it did with “Arrested Development,” Netflix is counting on a rabid cult following to engender lots of talk in the press and on social media, and make sure that its reboot hits the mainstream. The company even rebooted AMC’s twice-canceled cop drama “The Killing” for a final season last year.

Sticking with known entities is a smart strategy, especially knowing that viewers will continue to discover these shows as their reputation solidifies.

And where reputations are concerned, it doesn’t get any more prestigious than winning Emmys and Oscars.

In the last two years, Netflix has won seven prime-time Emmys for original series “House of Cards” and “Orange is the New Black,” despite the fact that they don’t run in what’s considered “prime time” and can be binge-streamed from day one.

Netflix has invaded the Academy Awards as well, with its powerful Egyptian revolution documentary “The Square” netting a richly deserved nomination in 2014.

With over 60 million subscribers globally, however, the company is also thinking more internationally. The Wachowskis’ Netflix series “Sense8” is a heartfelt fantasy/drama of intercontinental psychic social justice that spans eight countries — even if it is all in English — while Spanish and French-language shows are on their way.

On Aug. 28, Netflix pulls its biggest gamble to date, releasing “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon II: The Green Legend” on Netflix the same day The Weinstein Company puts it in IMAX theaters

ERIC MELIN

eric@scene-stealers.com across the nation.

In 2000, the Wuxia splendor of Ang Lee’s original garnered four Oscar wins and became the biggest foreign language film ever. You’d think this makes it a safe bet across the world, but Lee’s not directing it.

Instead, choreographer Yuen Woo-ping is helming the picture.

If it has the unexpected picturesque poignancy of the first movie, it may just change the way films are distributed forever, allowing viewers to experience a unique IMAX showing if they are so moved.

If it doesn’t, it could be an expensive flop, and anger theater chains even more than it already has.

Here’s the basic problem I see with Netflix at this critical juncture: Along with HBO, Showtime, AMC and FX, these entities own the best original adult programming around, but no one company owns the majority of it.

HBO has its streaming service HBO Now and is in bed with Amazon Prime, streaming older seasons of its shows there. The former cableonly network also gets a good amount of post-theatrical movie exclusives as well.

The other companies have two or three essential shows each, and none of them wants to play nice with the others.

Therefore, a quandary remains.

Cord-cutters will likely pay for access to at least two streaming networks a month, easy. But will they wait for shows on premium and pay-cable (or satellite) stations to show up there? If not, they will still turn to pirate torrent sites to illegally download the shows and movies they want to see. The industry has yet to curb these habits.

I, for one, always feel the need to keep current, especially since I’m on Twitter all time, where live-tweeting premieres of new episodes is fair game — and pretty much standard these days.

Right now I have a lot of subscriptions and I have to be strategic about which shows I binge, which ones I watch weekly during their first run, and which ones I catch up with later.

When it comes to movies, it’s a similar philosophy: Prioritize the ones to see in the theater, then the ones you know you can catch up on via streaming or Blu-ray.

Netflix was smart to pivot into becoming an original content creator (even if I have to admit

Failure to launch tour at Liberty Hall I think it’s much better to be really involved in the DIY way and take on all those challenges yourself, have full control of them in your own mind, and not have this parental record label glooming over you. I think that’s a better way to do it.”

By Fally Afani Special to the Journal-World

When Failure decided to reunite, they went big.

After a nearly twodecade-long hiatus, the iconic ’90s alternative band is releasing a highly anticipated and impressively lengthy 18-track album, “The Heart is a Monster,” on June 30. So naturally, they’re kicking off a tour just a couple of days after its release.

Their first stop lands them at Liberty Hall on Thursday.

Failure did, however, get to warm up with a reunion tour last year before ever heading into the studio. Guitarist Greg Edwards says that tour is what prompted them to end the split and finally put out some new music.

“We already had decided we weren’t just going to do a reunion tour unless part of that was writing new material and releasing it,” Edwards says.

“That was always the plan. It was never a possibility that we would just go out and do a reunion tour and call it quits. The whole momentum and

were really just a free agent in this chaotic system that had so little valuation of what you were doing. Now, just being completely on your own, even though there are things about that that are scary … it’s a much better place to be. Artistically, it’s superior.”

Edwards also noted how today’s scene leaves bands budgeting tightly and generally breaking even on tours. But that’s what he prefers.

“In the end, in terms of having a career and a life,

A new audience The business end wasn’t the only facet that changed over the years.

Keeping fans’ needs in mind was tricky when Failure headed back into the studio — not just because of the expectations that followed after releasing “Fantastic Planet” in 1996, but because their fan base took on a new form.

In the ’90s, Failure became associated with Tool almost from the very beginning. They grew close and toured together often.

This meant that Failure mostly absorbed the same fan base as Tool.

Edwards says if you asked him what his fans were like a year and a half ago, before their reunion, he would have been completely wrong.

Removed from the urban glamor of Barcelona, Regier fantasized about the kind of “bigcity toy stores” he didn’t have access to in the countryside. The closest he ever got to the toys of his dreams was flipping through the Sears and JC Penney Christmas catalogs, until one day he and his family were invited to dinner at the home of a local artist.

The man had a toy train on his fireplace mantle. And it had a young Randy completely transfixed.

“His kids and my sister were watching TV and playing together, but I remember starring at that train all night because my 9-year-old self had decided that if I stared at it long enough and hard enough, he would realize that no one in the world wanted that train more than I did, and he’d give it to me,” Regier says.

But he didn’t, and looking back decades later, Regier says he’s glad. If Regier had went home with the train that day, he probably would have lost it or destroyed it, or, in the event of completely losing interest in the toy, traded it for something else — either

with Tool, we picked up a predominantly male fan base,” he says. “Over time, over word of mouth, people have passed the record onto friends or their children. We have a much lighter audience.

When I look out, there’s young people, females, things that I wouldn’t have expected just based off of what the core audience was in the ’90s.”

Regardless of their audience’s background, Edwards says the goal is the same.

“The moments of discovering something and creating something that you really like, that you think says something necessary or has something unique in it, that just makes you as an artist feel a certain way,” he says. “That’s enough for me. That keeps me going.

Then, when you add the dimension that it might have an effect on a stranger out in the world, then that’s incredible, too.”

way, he says the incident is what led him on the path to art.

Much like that train on the mantle, “NuPenny’s Last Stand” is meant to invoke longing for the objects displayed behind the glass. The effect is heightened after 8:30 p.m., when the installation lights up from the inside.

But it’s always locked .

You can never go inside Regier’s glowing “Twilight Zone” store to play with the toys, no matter how inviting it may look.

“The fact that I was never able to have it is the reason I still care about it and think about it,” Regier says, recalling the train of his boyhood. “I think a lot about that in terms of the acquisition of things — how much we desire them and how much that fades when they’re acquired or conquered.”

It’s the same reason he doesn’t allow folks inside “NuPenny.”

“I could let people go in and walk around and come back out, but my response to them when they ask if they can is, ‘How would it be any different for you?’” he says.

“I think they would lose something in that.”

BOOK REVIEW

King’s ‘Finders’ is a keeper

By Rene Rodriguez Miami Herald

Many people start reading Stephen King while still in their teens, then get hooked for life.

The experience of your first King novel (especially the old ones, such as “Salem’s Lot” or “The Shining” or “The Stand” or his short story collection “Night Shift”) turns you into an instant addict who always craves more.

In an interview, King once told me he was like the church (“The trick is to get ’em while they’re young”), and although he was making a joke, he was also acknowledging the reason he enjoys so many Constant Readers, as he often refers to us in afterwords and introductions.

Yet even if you’ve read almost every novel King has written — and there are so many, only the most hardcore fan has kept up with all of them — his work doesn’t leave an imprint.

Yes, he gives you lots of shivery things and grisly moments to remember with fondness (the handcuffs in Gerald’s Game!), but he doesn’t shape your world view the way other great writers can do.

Ironically, his two nonfiction books (“Danse Macabre” and “On Writing”) are the only ones that really have an impact, affecting how you think about horror film and literature or the art of writing.

That’s not meant as a slam. The kind of sustained entertainment King pulls off in his best books is supremely difficult to achieve, especially when you’re as prolific as he is (compare him to, say, Woody Allen, who cranks out a movie a year, yet only every fifth one or so is one worthwhile).

Despite his phenomenal commercial success, King is still, all this time later, an underrated artist, notwithstanding a recent reappre-

ciation of his work by critics who once dismissed his books as junk — all calories, no substance.

King has been veering away from full-on horror for a while now. “Finders Keepers,” the second book in a trilogy featuring characters he introduced in “Mr. Mercedes,” is dedicated to John D. MacDonald, the celebrated author of crime thrillers and suspense novels who is one of King’s biggest influences.

“Finders Keepers,” in fact, opens with a chapter MacDonald could have written. An elderly man is woken from his sleep by three masked home invaders, who demand he turn over the large stash of cash he keeps locked away in a safe, along with something far more precious: a stack of notebooks containing the last two novels, never published, in the series of books that made him rich.

Two of the intruders are happy with the money. But the third, who peels off his ski mask to reveal “a young man of classic Boston Irish countenance: red hair, greenish eyes, pasty-white skin that would always burn and never tan. Plus those weird red lips” is a monster — a literary psycho.

His name is Morris, and he’s furious at the old man for never completing the series that had so deeply affected his life. Morris saw himself in the writer’s best-known character, and he feels betrayed at the way the saga stopped: The fictional protagonist, a free spirit who lived by his own rules, wound up joining the rat race, settling down in the suburbs with a wife and kids and becoming an ad salesman.

To Morris, a young man who has rejected society because he knows he’s too insane and insecure to ever fit in, that finale was the ultimate betrayal by a writer he had grown to love.

The Fresno Bee

Batman, Superman, Spider-Man and Captain America have become giants in pop culture through comic books, TV shows and feature films.

But, have you heard of Funnyman? What about Man O’ Metal, Mr. Muscles or Pat Parker, War Nurse?

Probably not, unless you are as big a comic book fan as Jon Morris.

The Seattle-based cartoonist and graphic designer behind the comic book blog “Gone & Forgotten” has put together “The League of Regrettable Superheroes” (Quirk Books, $24.95).

The book looks at comic book heroes who have put on a cape or spandex suit to fight crime but never gained the notoriety achieved by others.

“The name ‘regrettable’ doesn’t mean that they were just bad ideas. Some were just weird ideas.

Some were bad execution.

And with others, their publisher just vanished in the night,” Morris says.

His prime example is

the 1939 Centaur Publishing offering “AmazingMan.” The character was well received but Centaur Comics went out of business in 1940.

Morris has seen superheroes leave faster t h a n Superman at a Kryptonite quarry.

His love of comics started when he was young.

His father, a German immigrant, read comic books to learn English.

So while his friends were reading the “Crisis on Infinite Earths” in the ‘80s, Morris was poring over classic comics from the ’40s and ’50s.

That means he knew about good superhero comic book characters, such as the original Captain Marvel in Whiz Comics who took on great powers when his alter ego, Billy Batson, yelled

Secrets of My Soul!

The other night I saw a cloud shape as a scorpion; It reminded me of our kiss we share!

Never in my life Did I feel So close to someone as I did Toward you Making my heart melt!

That day we share the secrets to my soul By looking up at the stars, in the late night sky!

BEST-SELLERS Here are the best-sellers for the week that ended June 21, compiled from nationwide data.

Contributed Photo

STEPHEN KING’S “FINDERS KEEPERS” is a follow-up to “Mr. Mercedes” and the second book in a trilogy.

That first chapter, which ends with a horrific bang, could easily stand alone as a short story (thematically, it is reminiscent of “Misery,” in which the loony Annie Wilkes kidnapped her favorite author after he was injured in an accident and forced him to rewrite a novel in which he killed off her favorite character).

But “Misery” took place largely inside one house and featured a small cast of characters. “Finders Keepers” is much more complex, jumping back and forth in time to follow Morris, who is sent away to prison for a crime, and Pete Saubers, a boy who finds the stolen notebooks without realizing their worth.

What ensues is the kind of cat-and-mouse game King excels at crafting, with Morris coming back to reclaim the notebooks after he serves his sentence.

There are overlaps with “Mr. Mercedes,”

including the vehicular mass slaughter that opened that novel, revisited here from someone else’s point of view, and the reappearance of the retired detective Bill Hobbs and his two young assistant sleuths, who become the main line of defense between the nowpsychopathic Morris and Pete and his family.

“Finders Keepers” is fueled by real-life issues of economic depression and marital strife, which makes the ensuing suspense and menace more palpable. In a paragraph detailing the state of mind of Pete’s mother, King writes: “She and [her husband] Tom have been slowly but surely digging themselves out of two pits: a money pit and a marriage pit. The year after Tom’s accident, they came perilously close to breaking up.

Then the mystery cash started coming, a kind of miracle, and things start-

ed to turn around. They aren’t all the way out of either hole even yet, but Linda has come to believe they will get out.”

That sense of contemporary despair — the constant struggle so many wage daily in order to simply survive, and the sense of hope that follows when you get a glimpse of the end of the tunnel — is what gives “Finders Keepers” its substance and makes it meatier than, say, “Under the Dome,” which was a terrific read but also kind of ridiculous.

This is not to imply that King has gone all Cheever or Carver on us: The book is, first and foremost, a thrilling, taut read. But there’s something relatable about this one that extends beyond recognizing your own life and fears while reading about a doomed romance or an alcoholic clinging to sobriety or a group of kids stalked by a killer clown.

A history of not-so-super comic book heroes

By Rick Bentley

POET’S SHOWCASE

“Shazam,” and the 1966 version of Captain Marvel from M.F. Enterprises whose super power was that his body would fall to pieces when he yelled “Split.”

It takes a lot of comic book reading to become a w a r e of these under-appreciated superheroes. At one time, Morris owned m o r e t h a n 15,000 comic books, but he cut that down to about 200 books that have special meaning to him.

His collection may have gotten smaller, but his knowledge continues to grow.

Some of the more recent regrettable superheroes may have slipped past Morris. He doesn’t read a lot of the modern titles because he didn’t like the change to the ma-

jor characters made by the publishers. But he has been happy that both the Marvel and DC Comics worlds have grown to be more inclusive.

There was a time when all of the comic book heroes were white males.

Now they come in a variety of shapes and sizes, ethnicity and sex. Being diverse doesn’t mean they are all good. Today’s comic book heroes could one day join the cast of regrettable ones he spotlights in his book.

There’s no set rules about what makes a comic book superhero worthy of being regrettable. In the case of DC Comics’ Sonik, the ‘80s superhero got all his power from a super-powered Walkman. Evolving technology was his biggest nemesis.

Morris does have a soft spot when it comes to some of the heroes. Although he talks about the ups and downs of Wonder Woman on a weekly basis in his blog, the Amazon didn’t make his book despite the period where she gave up her powers and was more about fash-

ion than fighting crime.

“I have looked at all the different stuff that didn’t work with Wonder Woman, from the death of her creator to now. She had great periods in the 1940s and 1980s’ mostly it has been difficult for people to decided what to do with her,” Morris says.

Here are a few of the regrettable superheroes that did make into his book: l The Bouncer (1944): The secret identity of the mythological figure is a statue. l Doctor Vampire (1944): He calls himself Doctor Vampire, but he actually fights vampires.

Lasted one issue. l Gunmaster (1960): The Wild West hero has no special powers but lots and lots of guns. l Man-Wolf (1973): An astronaut becomes a galaxy-traveling werewolf. l Prez (1973): A teenager is elected President of the United States and proceeds to save the world. l AAU Shuperstar (1977): The foremost footwear-based superhero.

Book of Garcia interviews coming New York — A book of previously unreleased Jerry Garcia interviews is coming out this fall to mark the 20th anniversary of his death and the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Grateful Dead.

Hachette Book Group imprint Black Dog & Levanthal announced Tuesday that “Jerry on Jerry” will be published in November.

The book will be edited

by Grateful Dead biographer Dennis McNally. The interviews range from Garcia’s memories of childhood to his thoughts on drugs, songwriting and politics.

Garcia died in August 1995 at age 53. Surviving band members are touring this summer.

Daughter Trixie Garcia says the book captures the “fun-loving weirdness and creepy corners” of her father’s interests.

Fourth of July fireworks, and folk art at the Nelson

he Fourth of July is a magical time in America, and especially in Kansas City. In the backyards of the suburbs, kids play with snap pops, sparklers or glowing snakes.

Streets in the Westside neighborhood and Wyandotte County become de facto block parties, as families and neighbors gather to light grills and long strings of Lady Crackers. And, of course, there are many large public fireworks displays throughout the city.

The biggest public display of fireworks can be found at Riverfest, a Fourth of July festival at Berkley Riverfront Park just east of the City Market that lasts from 4 p.m. until the smoke clears around 11 p.m. Riverfest also features several live cover bands, children’s activities, food trucks and drink vendors.

Shuttles are available for those who wish to park in the City Market.

Admission is free from 4 to 5 p.m. and is only $5 per person after that. The fireworks display begins at 10 p.m. For more details and parking information, visit kcriverfest.com.

In nearby Parkville, Mo., just a few miles northwest of downtown Kansas City, the carnival rides return from July 1-4, with Saturday’s events including a parade at 10 a.m. through downtown Parkville, a Navy brass band at 1 p.m., and a fireworks display

Kids unhappy with sister’s new boyfriend Dear Annie: My sisters and I have always been close, but some changes have occurred this year that threaten our relationship.

My youngest sister, “Carrie,� separated from her husband of 13 years and it has been a tumultuous four months for all of us.

She began dating again a month ago, and one relationship has progressed nicely. She has already introduced her new beau to her kids.

But the presence of another person in Carrie’s life has added more conflict to the separation, and we’ve all been affected. Her kids have confided in us how unhappy they are, so we mentioned it to Carrie.

That talk didn’t go over well.

We are planning a small get-together for my great-aunt’s birth-

day and Carrie is planning to bring her (uninvited) new beau. To be frank, my older sister and I aren’t ready to meet him. We’re still knee-deep in the conflict with Carrie and her husband.

While the separation is not the boyfriend’s fault, his presence reminds the kids of their parents’ conflict and hurts them tremendously. It also will affect whatever chances Carrie has to reconcile

‘Humans’ channels classic sci-fi Perhaps AMC’s future is no longer in the past. The cable network changed its brand with the period piece “Mad Men� and has continued to mine history both distant and recent with “Hell on Wheels,� “Turn,� and “Halt and Catch Fire.�

Set in a near future that could be closer than we expect, the eight-part import “Humans� (8 p.m.) has been a huge success in the U.K. A quiet, thoughtful science-fiction series, it’s worth getting excited about. “ H u m a n s � explores a world w h e r e Synths, lifelike humanoid robots, have become commonplace.

They work as domestics, baby sitters and caregivers for elderly shut-ins and also perform manual labor in factories and farms.

Their introduction comes not without concern. What happens when people who derive meaning from work are displaced?

Will machines allow people to become “more� human, or merely angry and alienated?

Made by the production company behind “Broadchurch,� this drama explores these profound questions in intimate settings. When Laura Hawkins (Katherine Parkinson, “Doc Martin�) becomes too distracted by her legal work, her harried husband, Joe (Tom Goodman-Hill), surprises her with a Synth. Laura is supposed to be pleased that Anita (Gemma Chan) keeps the house spotless, prepares three gourmet meals a day and even reads bedtime stories to their daughter. Instead, she’s threatened by the fact that this “tin can� has usurped her role as a mother and has come between her and her husband.

George (William Hurt) is a lonely widower still grieving for his dead wife. His Synth, Odi (Will Tudor), is clearly obsolete and breaking down. But George sees “him� as his only “living� link to his departed spouse.

As if these deeply moving personal dramas were not enough, there’s a murky backstory about an underground population of sentient Synths, robots that have gained self-awareness, identities and a yearning to be more than slaves. And Anita, or some version of her former self, appears to be among them. “Humans� clearly follows a field well explored by books and movies from “Frankenstein� to “Metropolis,� “Blade Runner� to “A.I.� But its focus on the personal distinguishes it from its more fantastic antecedents. Haunting, moving and — for a series about synthetic “life� — deeply humane, it’s simply not to be missed.
