Tuition increase tops 2014

AN EXERCISE IN DISASTER

KU’s in-state rate is state’s most expensive of Regents institutions

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

In-state undergraduates attending Kansas University this fall will pay $5,028 per semester in tuition and required fees, which is $174 — or 3.6 percent — more than last year.

Of the total, $467 is fees.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY The increase would have been higher, but KU and the state’s five other Regents universities all were forced by the state Legislature to hold tuition increases to 3.6 percent or less this year, including fees.

Heriford’s worst fears were washed away Thursday night at the annual Best of Lawrence awards ceremony at Abe & Jake’s Landing in downtown Lawrence.

Taking five categories, Ladybird Diner was named Lawrence’s best new restaurant, best diner, best place to get a pie, best restaurant for kids and best new business.

“It feels a little bittersweet because I don’t get to get up and go to work tomorrow,” Heriford said. “But it’s also really encouraging.

I was worried people weren’t going to come back, but now I’m really not worried anymore.”

Thursday night’s event was the celebration of the annual Best of Lawrence contest, created and hosted

by Lawrence.com, Lawrence Magazine, Sunflower Publishing and The World Company. More than 400 unique businesses and organizations were honored in 165 different categories in 2015.

Winners were selected from more than 257,000 votes. All three were record numbers for the contest.

From hamburgers (The Burger Stand) to hotels (The Eldridge), hardware stores (Westlake Ace Hardware) to hairstylists (Brad Hestand, Bzar Salon), voters were put to work in selecting the finest the city has to offer.

After Nick Lerner of

said local agencies also had expenses related to personnel time and use of equipment, but she said the training exercise is worth the investment.

Leaders said Thursday’s exercise was particularly helpful because it involved activating three emergency operations centers: one at Douglas County Emergency Management, one at KU and one at LMH. “Usually one of the first issues that comes up is communications,” Newton said. “We don’t get to practice communications between agencies that often. They’re all used to responding to emergencies.

That’s in a day’s work, but when an incident becomes a certain size, it changes the protocols and some of the communication becomes different.”

The various agencies involved will have debriefings and produce reports in the coming days on what went well and what aspects of the response could be improved, Smith said.

Smith said the county tries to host a major exercise about every two years, although it is dependent upon grant availability.

McGrew Real Estate, 1501 Kasold Drive, was named Lawrence’s best realtor, things became a little emotional, he said.

“I’m so proud. I’m in shock,” Lerner said.

“Ya know, this really is the best of Lawrence.

These are the coolest people in Lawrence, here, right now.”

Trina Baker, bar manager at the Red Lyon Tavern, said the event is always a great indicator of what Lawrence has to offer.

Red Lyon, 944 Massachusetts St., was voted Lawrence’s third best bar, after Free State Brewing Company and the Sandbar, which won first and second place, respectively.

“We’ve always been in the running and we love Free State and Sandbar so we’re not mad at all,” Baker said.

“It means we’re doing something right, and it’s exciting to get that recognition from the community.”

Community recognition is also encouraging, added Heriford. Although there is no set date for Ladybird Diner to reopen its doors, she said, she hopes to return to business before the end of summer.

“We’re coming back strong and with a much-improved menu,” she said. “We’re going to be better, faster and stronger. It’s going to be Ladybird to the Nth degree.”

Tuition CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The Board of Regents approved universities’ tuition proposals Thursday after sending several schools back to the drawing board Wednesday evening with an order to retool proposals to keep total increases under the Legislature’s cap.

At the finale of the recent record-long session, the Kansas Legislature ordered tuition increases for fiscal year 2016 capped at inflation plus 2 percent, or a total of 3.6 percent.

Some universities’ initial tuition proposals offset revenue shortfalls by upping fees, boosting the total amount a student would pay to over 3.6 percent more than the previous year.

But the Board of Regents said no to that.

“We not only want to follow the letter of the law but also the intent of the law,” Regent Shane Bangerter said.

KU’s initial proposal, which the Board rejected, priced standard tuition and fees at $5,092 per semester for in-state undergrads, an increase of $238 or 4.9 percent from last year.

A 3.6 percent increase is notably smaller than tuition increases in recent years at KU and most of the other schools.

KU tuition went up 4.9 percent in 2014-15, 5 percent in 2013-14, 5.1 percent in 2012-13, 6.2 percent in 2011-12 and 9.2 percent in 2010-11, according to numbers from

study in Thursday’s journal Science that looked at 187,570 injection wells over four decades.

It’s not so much the average-sized injection wells but the supercharged ones that are causing the ground to shake. Wells that pumped more than 12 million gallons of saltwater into the ground per month were far more likely to trigger quakes than those that put lesser amounts per month, the study from the University of Colorado found.

Although Texas, Arkansas, Kansas and other states have seen increases in earthquakes, the biggest jump has been in Oklahoma. From 1974 to 2008, Oklahoma averaged about one magnitude 3 or greater earthquake a year, but in 2013 and 2014, the state averaged more than 100 quakes that size per year, according to another earthquake study published Thursday. Since Jan. 1, the U.S. Geological Survey has logged more than 350 magnitude 3 or higher quakes in Oklahoma.

Studies have linked the increase in quakes to the practice of injecting leftover wastewater into the ground after drilling for oil and gas using newer technologies, such as hydraulic fracturing, also known as “fracking.” Recent studies have linked the damaging 2011 magnitude 5.7 quake that hit Prague, Okla., to a nearby high-rate injection well.

Unlike other studies, this new University of Colorado study looked at 18,757 wells that were associated with earthquakes within 9 miles of them and the nearly 170,000 that didn’t have any quake links. Looking for the difference between the two groups, researchers determined that it was how much wastewater was pumped and how fast, said lead author Matthew Weingarten.

Even though quake-associated wells were only 10 percent of those studied, more than 60 percent of the high-rate wells — 12 million gallons or more — were linked to nearby earth-

the Board of Regents.

KU will continue to provide a “compact” rate to incoming freshmen that locks in their rate for four years, though for the first time this year it will be optional instead of mandatory.

The compact rate is higher initially but is not subject to annual tuition increases, so by those students’ senior year their tuition will most certainly be lower than the standard rate.

Next year, incoming in-state freshmen choosing the compact rate will pay $5,412 per semester, $188 — or 3.6 percent — more than last year.

Among Regents universities, Fort Hays State University will remain the cheapest by far. In-state undergrads at Fort Hays State will pay $2,305 per semester in tuition and fees, a 3.2 percent increase from last year.

KU’s out-of-state undergrads will pay a total of $12,353 per semester next year, or $13,329 for the compact rate.

Regents have bemoaned the Legislature’s efforts to control tuition throughout the recent session, including an earlier suggestion to freeze it altogether.

Bangerter and other Regents have said those decisions should fall to them.

Kansas earthquakes

Rick Miller, a senior scientist at the Kansas Geological Survey, said Thursday’s study provides even clearer evidence that disposing of saltwater waste in certain wells is the culprit behind many earthquakes.

“The studies say what we have been speculating, but we really hadn’t had the smoking gun, if you will,” Miller said. “In Kansas we have seen areas that have increases in saltwater disposal having increases in earthquakes. It’s consistent with what we are seeing.”

Miller said that months ago a task force appointed by Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback recommended a new regulation “that basically began the process of throttling back the volumes of fluid that can be injected in those areas that were already showing high levels of seismicity.”

Kansas has seen a large increase in the number of earthquakes since 2013, according to data from the National Earthquake Information Center.

This year already there have been 90 earthquakes with a magnitude 2.0 or greater. For all of 2014, there were 126 earthquakes with a magnitude 2.0 or greater.

In 2013, there were only four earthquakes with a magnitude 2.0 or greater.

And Kansas earthquakes appear to be getting stronger.

This year already there have been 33 earthquakes with a magnitude 3.0. One had a magnitude 4.0.

In all of 2014, there were 40 earthquakes with a magnitude 3.0. Two had a magnitude 4.0.

quakes, the study found.

And of the 45 wells that pump the most saltwater at the fastest rate, 34 of them — more than three out of four — were linked to nearby quakes, the study found.

Physically, it makes sense because “high-rate injection creates much higher pressure over the relative time scale,” said study coauthor Shemin Ge, a hydrogeology professor at the University of Colorado.

Possible other factors Weingarten and Ge looked, such as cumulative amounts of saltwater injected or depth, didn’t show up as significant in the large database.

A different study that just looked at quake-struck Oklahoma, released at the same time in the journal Science Advances, pointed more toward cumulative amounts of liquid rather than high rates. But study co-author Mark Zoback of Stanford said both papers can be right because factors might be slightly different in Oklahoma than elsewhere.

Seismologist Susan Hough of the U.S. Geologi-

cal Survey called the Weingarten study both compelling and hopeful — hopeful because it means that energy drillers can change the way they inject wastewater and thereby lessen the number of earthquakes.

ANALYSIS

In Kansas Legislature, a bill is not always what it appears

By John Hanna Associated Press

Topeka — Legislation funding most of Kansas’ state government for its next fiscal year began as a measure giving wildlife and parks officers more discretion in issuing citations and had two other, vastly different incarnations before becoming a bill containing the bulk of the budget.

Lawmakers’ handling of the measure from its introduction through its signing by Republican Gov. Sam Brownback this week shows how loose the rules for moving bills to passage have become over the past 25 years and how confusing the process can be to follow.

They don’t hesitate to strip out texts and titles of bills and dump the contents into other bills to speed up their legislating. They even have their own jargon for it.

They do a “gut and go� to turn a bill into something completely different, and measures become “shells,� ‘‘vehicles� or even “body donors� — so that the legislative process looks little like what’s taught to schoolchildren in lessons about government. “We learn a lot after junior high as to how the real process works,� said Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce, a Nickerson Republican. “It’s hard for legislators to follow, too.�

Here is a look at how the budget bill became law:

Early life The bulk of the state budget is contained in a version of Senate Bill 112. It was introduced on Jan. 29 by the Senate

Judiciary Committee, at the request of the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism. The bill originally would have given department officers the discretion not to issue citations for misdemeanor violations of wildlife and parks rules.

The bill cleared the committee in late February and three days later, on Feb. 26, passed the Senate unanimously.

First ‘gut and go’ But House members had different plans. Their Judiciary Committee amended the wildlife and parks proposal into another bill, leaving SB 112 available as a “vehicle.�

The House speaker sent the bill to the Veterans, Military and Homeland Security Committee.

The second committee did a “gut and go,� passing a substitute version

that would have shortened the time for state regulatory boards to issue professional licenses to military spouses.

The committee endorsed the substitute, but the House didn’t debate it. It returned to committee as lawmakers started their annual spring break near the end of March.

A little history The veterans committee’s action, stripping a bill of its text and title and replacing it with something new, is common now. But 25 years ago, the tactic provoked outrage, when the House Transportation Committee took a minor bill on that subject and turned it into a measure requiring girls under 18 to notify their parents before obtaining an abortion.

will need to discuss any changes where core drops have taken place,” the email reads. “Please advise, that we have no more resources to fill them, and I will be working on getting staff in for at least (half) shifts if possible to bring units back up to core.”

Part of the problem: a number of workers staffing the units were already working overtime.

Eleven of the more than 30 staff members among the units listed were working overtime. The overtime for six of the 11 had been mandated by the hospital, according to the email.

A 2013 legislative audit of Larned’s sexual predator treatment program found many of the same staffing

issues documented in the May 2015 emails. The audit showed direct care positions were understaffed eight of 13 days reviewed by auditors.

“Additionally, about half of the survey respondents reported that core staffing levels are only sometimes or rarely met. Further, about 35 percent of staff reported that there are rarely or never enough staff on duty during a shift to ensure safety of residents and staff,” the audit reads.

“These survey results and staffing data indicate the program may not be maintaining its own minimum staffing goals on a regular basis.”

The predator treatment program had a staff vacancy rate of 38 percent among

nurses and mental health technicians in February, about an 8 percent increase in vacancies since April 2013, which was within the time period reviewed by auditors.

The Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, which oversees the state hospitals, didn’t answer questions by the end of business Thursday.

A new legislative audit released earlier this year of the sexual predator unit focused on the effectiveness of the program and how its population can be reduced.

Of the approximately 250 people who have been treated in the program, only three have been discharged since it began in 1994. Twentyseven have actually died

in the program.

Rebecca Proctor, director of the Kansas Organization of State Employees, said low wages and poor working conditions have combined to create pervasive and ongoing staffing shortages at Larned.

“No meaningful progress has been made since the 2013 legislative post-audit report. If anything, staffing shortages are higher today. Drops in core staffing result in massive amounts of forced overtime, impacting employee health/ safety, patient safety, and the agency budget,” Proctor said.

“Bottom line: core drops endanger staff, patients, and the community and should be of utmost concern.”

Bosch said, the company would bring gigabit-capacity fiber-optic cable service to Baldwin City.

The company is now on the cusp of realizing that goal. Conduit, through which fiber cable later will be threaded, is being installed in the community and on a route to Baldwin City through two cities RG Fiber will eventually provide service to: Eudora and Lawrence.

The line RG Fiber is installing will extend from existing optical fiber line near Eudora to Lawrence along Kansas Highway 10

and then south to Baldwin City. Fiber cable leased to the east will connect to a building at 1102 Grand Ave. in Kansas City, Mo., the hub through which all regional gigabit traffic accesses the global Internet.

“We’re piecing this together through leases or installing our own,” Bosch said. “We’ll own the 20 miles we’re installing from Eudora through Lawrence to Baldwin City. We’ll light up 10 gigabits, which is overkill but fun.”

The new line from Lawrence will terminate at

RG Fiber’s Baldwin City office and then be distributed out to the community. The first customer will be Baker University, both the campus and the sports complex near Liston Stadium, Bosch said.

It then will spread out in the community along RG Fiber’s line and those the company is leasing from the Baldwin City school district, which link the district office on Chapel Street to the elementary schools on the west side of town and the junior high and high school campus on the commu-

nity’s northeast side.

Baldwin City is the company’s first priority, ahead of Eudora, which will be the next community RG Fiber serves, and then Lawrence, Bosch said. RG Fiber plans to install cable along busy business Lawrence thoroughfares such as North Second, Sixth, 23rd and Iowa streets, Bosch said.

“We’re going to have to hire quite a few fiber installers and customer support people,” Bosch said. “We’re getting quite a response from Eudora and Lawrence.”

ry Committee, objected to Winn’s remarks, saying, “She just referred to this committee as racist.”

Winn denied that she was calling individual committee members racists. She said she was referring to supporters of the bill, adding that the bill was an example of what she called “institutional racism.”

Barker and eight other Republican members of the education panel later signed a formal complaint, which was filed with House Speaker Ray Merrick, R-Stilwell.

The investigating panel is made up of three Repub-

licans and three Democrats. Under rules of the House, the panel can either dismiss the complaint or “make recommendations to the full House of Representatives for reprimand, censure or expulsion.”

According to an agenda for the hearing, the panel will spend five minutes listening to the audio tape of the March 19 meeting.

It will then allow 10 minutes of testimony from the complainants as a group and 10 minutes of testimony from Winn.

Rep. Erin Davis, ROlathe, who chairs the investigating panel, denied a report being circu-

lated via email from the political group Women for Kansas, which alleged that each of the nine complainants would be given 10 minutes of their own.

Davis also said that even if the committee makes a recommendation, the full House would not be able to act on it until the 2016 legislative session begins in January.

But most observers say it’s unlikely the committee will make a recommendation because that would require a majority vote, and the three Democrats on the panel are unlikely to vote to reprimand, censure or expel a member of

their own party.

“The Democratic Caucus fully supports Rep. Winn in this matter,” House Minority Leader Tom Burroughs, of Kansas City, said in an earlier statement. “This investigation is nothing but an attempt by the majority party to silence a minority voice that dared to speak up in opposition to discrimination. She has a constitutionally protected right to voice her opinion on this or any other issue, as do all Kansans.”

went to the Senate, which rejected the changes, so that three senators and three House members were appointed to draft a final version.

But the negotiators were from each chamber’s Judiciary Committee. They stripped the bill of its provisions to help veterans’ spouses and stuck them in another bill.

Senate Bill 112 became the vehicle for a proposal to increase criminal penalties for scrap metal theft.

That version of the bill was ready May 21.

ning July 1 and pass the tax increases necessary to balance it.

As of the end of May, the House hadn’t passed a complete budget, though three members and three senators were negotiating over the final version of spending recommendations for most of state government. They needed a vehicle, something that had passed each chamber.

The House and Senate on June 2 put Senate Bill 112 into the hands of their budget negotiators, and the scrap metal proposal went into another bill.

A day later, the bill contained funding for most of state government, and the House approved it.

The Senate followed suit on June 7, sending it to Brownback.

Special Olympics Summer Games torch passes through Lawrence Staff Reports

An Olympic torch that began its journey in Greece passed through Lawrence on its way to the 2015 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Los Angeles.

The Lawrence leg of the Unified Relay Across America — three routes meandering from east to west across the north, central and south sec-

tions of the United States — made a brief stop at KU’s campus Wednesday morning on its way from Topeka to Kansas City.

The torch was looping through Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma before resuming its westward trek to L.A. and the July 25 opening ceremonies.

EDITORIALS

Housing plan Maybe an expensive study isn’t needed, but city commissioners should collect all the information they need before moving forward on an affordable housing strategy.

H

iring a consultant to study the local housing market and affordable housing issues may not be the best use of $75,000 left over from an earlier housing trust fund effort in Lawrence, but it’s important that city officials develop a plan for how a renewed trust fund would be managed and used before moving forward on the idea.

Without such a plan, the new effort may face a similar fate to a housing trust fund that became inactive about a decade ago because its board was uncertain how best to use the money in the fund.

Organizers of Justice Matters, a local collaboration of religious groups in Lawrence, are eager to get started on the affordable housing issues they have identified. They say it would be a shame to spend $75,000 on a study instead of on concrete action to address the problem.

Instead, they would like the city to appoint a new housing trust fund board right away and let the board decide how to use the $100,000 in the leftover housing fund to get moving on local projects. In fact they have even suggested the makeup of such a board, which would include representatives of the city-county housing authority and several agencies that already deal with affordable housing issues.

It’s great that Justice Matters wants to get to work, but the city needs to have a strategy on how to approach this issue. “Affordable housing” appears to be a two-pronged problem. One is the need to provide permanent housing that is constructed and financed in a way to make it more affordable for lower income residents. The other need is for “transitional housing” for people — young adults who have aged out of foster care, people fleeing abusive homes, former jail inmates — who are getting back on their feet and need temporary housing. Which problem is more pressing? What is the best way to address it?

A number of local social service agencies already are working on these issues.

Groups like Tenants to Homeowners and Habitat for Humanity focus on affordable permanent housing. Groups like Family Promise and the Willow Center are working with people who need temporary housing. Is the main purpose of a housing trust fund to provide an additional revenue stream for these groups, or would its goal be to encourage collaboration that would result in more progress on a variety of housing fronts? Could the city accomplish just as much by simply giving additional money to agencies already addressing the problem?

Affordable permanent and transitional housing may be an issue that deserves more attention in Lawrence, but how best to do that remains unclear. If a community-wide conference on the topic that Justice Matters is sponsoring on July 17 includes a true representation of Lawrence residents and taxpayers, it may help define the problem and suggest a way to prioritize local efforts to address it. However, city commissioners shouldn’t be pushed into making any decisions before they’ve gathered the information they need to set a reasonable strategy on this issue.

Unlike Clinton, Bush bucks party base Washington — The two dynastic candidates told compelling stories recently about why they should be president, but there has been one big difference: Jeb Bush has taken the political risk of disagreeing with his party’s base, and Hillary Clinton hasn’t.

Their formal announcement speeches were overdue but offered coherent accounts of why they should be elected. Despite their elite biographies, each tells the bedrock American story well: Work hard, take risks, be yourself, don’t give

“

The two dynastic candidates’ best hope is to convince the country that they are reliably mainstream leaders, with measured judgment, compared with their relatively inexperienced rivals.”

up. Each conveys the selfconfidence that comes from knowing who you are, and an intuitive sense of how to govern. Each is believable in promising to keep the country safe.

Clinton demonstrated her sometimes overlooked strengths, which include an ability, as she said, “to be resilient ... no matter what the world throws at you,” and a self-deprecating sense of humor. “You won’t see my hair turn white in the White House,” she said. “I’ve been coloring it for years.”

Bush was credible when he said that “leaders have to think big.” But he had some dreadfully predictable lines, promising to “take care of our troops and our veterans,” and warning about a nonexistent danger of U.S. “military inferiority.”

There was a knee-jerk

hawkishness, too, in Bush’s claim that President Obama and Clinton, his former secretary of state, are “leaving a legacy of crises uncontained, violence unopposed, enemies unnamed, friends undefended and alliances unraveling.” This alliterative line was a speechwriter’s gem but largely untrue.

In terms of speechifying, I’d give Clinton the win, narrowly, on points. It’s on substance that she’s worrisome.

She seems determined to run as a born-again populist who can emulate left-wing Democrats, such as Sens.

Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren. In the process, she adjusts positions in ways that vitiate her real advantage, which is that she’s a strong, experienced, centrist politician.

The most obvious example is trade. Clinton could show leadership if she defied political pressure from her party’s base and helped Obama pass a Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement that she knows is in America’s economic and foreign-policy interest. Instead, she apparently listens to the consultants and pressure groups and trims her sails.

Clinton chose a political cop-out during a news conference Monday. “I will judge what’s in the final agreement, but I hope that it can be made better.” That’s hokum. The

basic parameters of TPP are set. The notion that you can go back and renegotiate a significantly better deal is false, even though it makes a good stump line. Suffice it to say that Clinton’s performance on this issue was no profile in courage.

Clinton’s political expediency becomes more striking when you look at Bush’s willingness to challenge the GOP party faithful. He dissents from right-wing orthodoxy on a series of issues, including immigration, climate change and the Common Core educational standards. He can still pander to the base, as on Obama’s normalization of relations with Cuba. “We don’t need a glorified tourist to go to Havana in support of a failed Cuba,” he said Monday, even as he pledged to go himself “in solidarity with a free Cuban people.”

Bush was admirably unpolitical in May 31 comments on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” one of his last major interviews before his announcement. He reaffirmed that he favors a “path to legalized status” for immigrants who are here illegally, rejecting the harsher methods proclaimed (unrealistically) by many GOP candidates.

Bush is also willing to say the unsayable on Social Security reform. This is one of the third-rail issues in

American politics, but Bush said he favored raising the retirement age. When moderator Bob Schieffer asked about the often-taboo issue of means-testing for benefits, Bush answered, “I think it ought to be considered, for sure,” and when asked if he really meant it, responded: “I do so, yes.” This forthrightness was unusual for a presidential candidate, and encouraging.

Bush and Clinton share the dual asset and liability of being familiar brand names.

Each struggled with this paradox this past week. “It’s nobody’s turn,” said Bush, with his mother, the former first lady who had said two years ago “We’ve had enough Bushes,” sitting in the front row. Clinton insisted she wasn’t “singing the same old song ... a song called ‘Yesterday,’” even as she stressed that she had seen the job of president “up close and personal.”

The two dynastic candidates’ best hope is to convince the country that they are reliably mainstream leaders, with measured judgment, compared with their relatively inexperienced rivals. If your name is Bush or Clinton, attempting to reinvent yourself isn’t a convincing campaign strategy.

PUBLIC FORUM

Affordable area To the editor: For nearly 150 years, the East Lawrence neighborhood has provided affordable housing for lower-income residents of Lawrence. And while there has always been a good deal of commercial activity in some parts of the neighborhood, that activity has almost always been compatible with its residential character.

As the City Commission considers ways to reduce homelessness and increase access to affordable housing, they should consider carefully the effects that new development along New Hampshire and Ninth Streets and in the “Warehouse Arts District” will have on the residential nature of East Lawrence, particularly on the remaining affordable housing stock north of Tenth Street.

Bringing the “arts” into East Lawrence and improving infrastructure along Ninth Street are fine ideas that few would object to. But if the nature and intensity of commercial activity changes forever the residential nature of the neighborhood, what has the city gained? And just as importantly, what have the current residents of the neighborhood gained?

Mick Palmer, Lawrence

Rising costs To the editor: Nearly everyone will agree that this session’s “budget process” was a disaster. However, reality eludes many critics. There is only so much revenue the state can collect. Only so many taxes can be raised and levied before people and businesses look elsewhere to live and work. Realistic people looking at the economy know that spending cannot continue to increase across the board.

If we are spending more than 50 percent on education, how much more is “fully funded” going to cost? Should we spend 60 percent or 70 percent of the state budget on education? What would you like to cut: social programs that continually request more funding, judicial and law enforcement that need upgrades and have extensive backlogs, highway/bridge construction whose costs are skyrocketing and facing dwindling revenues due to lower gas tax income?

While it’s hard to say that the current administration has done wonderful things for the state’s economy, perhaps a cost-cutting measure could be applied to the fastest-growing employment sector from the previous two administrations: state government. Maybe the state needs to be more efficient and use less people to do the same job. Maybe our higher education institutions can actually stop deferring maintenance and fix what they already have instead of continuing to build new. Maybe communities should just say “no” and try to live within their means.

Hard choices take guts, but continuing to live above one’s means sends Kansas down the path of Illinois, which only owes some $130 billion it can’t ever hope to pay.

Ken Meyer, Lawrence

Complete streets To the editor: Lawrence needs to adopt a Complete Streets policy. A complete street is a street that provides safe and convenient transportation for everyone such as motorists, pedestrians, children, bicyclists and disabled. Incomplete streets are designed only for motorists while complete streets are for everyone and have bike lanes, cross-

walks with non-visual cues, easy access to public transportation, and wellmaintained sidewalks. Lawrence is a college town and many students rely on bicycles and walking for transportation, but throughout the city there are no bike lanes or crosswalks. This makes transportation unsafe for many.

Not only do complete streets make transportation safer, they benefit the community as a whole. Complete streets do require an initial investment of money, but they provide economic benefits. A community in California invested $10.6 million into building complete streets. The investment initiated $125 million in private investment, had a 26 percent increase in revenue from sales tax, and 800 new jobs were created.

Complete streets promote physical activity by making walking and bicycling safer and more convenient.

When people walk or bike instead of taking their cars, less fossil fuel is burned, so there are less carbon dioxide emissions. Gasoline is also expensive and people can save money by using alternative modes of transportation. Complete street policies benefit the people of a community because they make roads safer for everyone, help the economy, help increase physical activity, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

has been Kansas State Fair general manager for more than 12 years, told The Hutchinson News on Thursday that he is taking a new position as director of marketing and public information for Hutchinson Community College.

Stoecklein has been with the state fair since 1995 and became general manager in 2003. His last day with the fair is July 17.

He says he starts his new job July 20.

Stoecklein says he and his wife attended Hutchinson Community College, and their son, Ryan, will be a freshman this fall and will also play baseball for the college.

Wichita — Kansas is making it easier for a farmer to use his regularly registered vehicles for agricultural operations, while still giving him regulatory exemptions he enjoys on vehicles registered only for farm use.

That is because after July 1, Kansas will offer an expanded definition of “covered farm vehicles” that brings the state in compliance with federal law.

The change allows farmers to use regularly registered vehicles to transport agricultural commodities, livestock, machinery or supplies within 150 miles from their homes. Under the expanded definition, those vehicles would still be exempt from motor vehicle safety regulations requiring a commercial driver’s license, logbooks, drug testing or medical qualifications.

The Kansas Department of Revenue website has a form farmers can fill out and keep in the vehicle.

HATE IN AMERICA Study of violence spots rise in ‘lone wolf’ attacks

People sit on the steps of Morris Brown AME Church while services are held Thursday in Charleston, S.C. Rick Jervis USA TODAY

The shooting of nine people by a white gunman inside a black church comes amid a recent surge in violent hate groups and incidents, in which “lone wolf” attacks are increasingly common, according to groups who monitor hate crimes.

Police arrested Dylann Roof, 21, on Thursday for allegedly opening fire in a Charleston, S.C., church Wednesday evening, killing nine people, including the church’s pastor.

Roof’s Facebook page revealed photos of him wearing a jacket with the patches of flags of apartheid-era South Africa and Rhodesia, the former Zimbabwe — flags popular with modern-day white supremacists.

A study in March by the Southern Poverty Law Center of “lone wolf” and “leaderless resistance” political violence found that 90% of domestic attacks or planned attacks the past six years were carried out by one or two people.

These incidents occurred, on av-

erage, once every 34 days, it said.

Lone wolf attacks are often difficult to detect and prevent because assailants are able to hide their intentions right up to the day of the attack, said Richard Cohen, president of the Southern Poverty Law Center.

“Unfortunately, there are thousands of young men like [Roof ] who are looking for an identity larger than themselves,” Cohen said. “We’ve seen a drifting away from organized white supremacy and the prevalence of lone wolf attacks.”

What makes this case unique is the level of violence behind it.

Although attacks on black churches have been common throughout U.S. history, the recent attack is one of the deadliest — more lethal than the church bombing in Birmingham, Ala., that killed four girls in 1963, Cohen said.

In 2013, the most recent year for which statistics are available, there were nearly 2,300 hate crimes directed against African Americans, down from 2,600 in v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Dylann Storm Roof was captured in North Carolina on Thursday 14 hours after he allegedly shot and killed nine people in a historic black church in downtown Charleston during a Bible study meeting.

Charleston Police Chief Gregory Mullen said Roof was “cooperative” when police in Shelby, N.C., acting on a tip, took him into custody 245 miles northwest of Charleston.

Roof was suspected by police as the lone gunman within hours of the bloody attack on the Emanuel AME Church around 9 p.m. Wednesday. Mullen said, “We don’t have any reason to believe anyone else

was involved.”

The killer walked into the church and sat with the Bible group for about an hour before pulling out a semiautomatic handgun and firing, reloading and firing again.

Among the dead — three men and six women — was the pastor of the church, Clementa Pinckney, 41, who was a South Carolina state senator. At the South Carolina Statehouse, a black drape and a red rose were put over his desk. Flags flew at half-staff.

One of the victims died after being taken to the hospital.

Three people survived being shot, police said.

Sylvia Johnson, Pinckney’s cousin, said one of the survivors told her that the gunman reloaded five times during the ordeal.

Charleston shooting suspect Dylann Roof, 21, drove a car with a Confederate flag front plate, wore a jacket that sported patches of apartheid South Africa and the formerly white-ruled African country of Rhodesia and had minor run-ins with police.

Roof left White Knoll in 2010 in the middle of ninth grade, which he had been forced to repeat, the school said.

CHARLESTON SHOOTINGS

S.C. KILLINGS ‘HEARTBREAKING’ Obama calls for stricter gun laws after 9 are killed Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON President Obama renewed his call for stricter gun laws Thursday following a shooting spree in Charleston, S.C., that killed nine people.

“We don’t have all the facts, but we do know that, once again, innocent people were killed in part because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no trouble getting their hands on a gun,” Obama said.

Obama’s remarks were not unlike the 13 others he’s given following a mass shooting during his presidency. But this time, he said

the usual condolences could not express “the heartache and the sadness and the anger we feel” about the overnight shooting at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston on Wednesday night.

“Any death of this sort is a tragedy. Any shooting involving multiple victims is a tragedy. There is something particularly heartbreaking about the death happening in a place in which we seek solace, and we seek peace, in a place of worship,” Obama said, with Vice President Biden standing silently at his side.

“We knew their pastor, Rev. Clementa Pinckney, who along with eight others, gathered in prayer and fellowship and was murdered last night,” he said.

“I’ve had to make statements like this too many times. Communities have had to endure tragedies like this too many times.”

It was at least the 14th state-

ALEX WONG, GETTY IMAGES

“I’ve had to make statements like this too many times,” President Obama said in his remarks about Wednesday’s shooting. ment Obama has made following shooting during his presidency, according to CBS Radio’s Mark Knoller.

Obama repeated his call for

Congress to take up gun safety legislation.

“Now is the time for mourning and for healing, but let’s be clear,” Obama said, before addressing

the role of gun laws in mass shooting incidents. “It doesn’t happen in other places with this kind of frequency, and it is in our power to do something about it. I say that recognizing the politics in this town foreclose a lot of those avenues right now, but it would be wrong for us not to acknowledge it.”

Obama made the statement from the White House briefing room before departing on a trip to California to headline Democratic fundraisers and speak to the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

Earlier, Obama phoned leaders in South Carolina to express his condolences.

Charleston Mayor Joseph Riley said Obama called him to offer his support.

“I told the president that the FBI and the ATF and the other federal resources, the Justice Department, have been extraordinary,” Riley said.

Victims include pastors, librarian

A suspect, 21-year-old Dylann Roof, was arrested on Thursday.

On the Facebook page of a sister, Shalisa Coleman, friends and family mourned Coleman-Singleton, who also worked as an athletics coach and speech specialist at a nearby school.

“My life has truly changed,” Coleman wrote among dozens of condolence messages. One, identified as TaMisha Kimble, said, “I love you all. I could have never imagined this. I would not [have] wished this on my worst enemy.”

On her Facebook and LinkedIn pages, Coleman-Singleton is identified as a speech language pathologist at Goose Creek High School, situated in a suburb of Charleston. She studied speech-language pathology at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla, and also attended Montclair State University in New Jersey and South Carolina State University, where she studied similar specialties. In addition, she acted as girls’ track and field coach at Goose Creek High.

According to her Facebook page, Coleman-Singleton lived in another Charleston suburb, Summerville. She wrote that she grew up in Newark, New Jersey’s largest city, where she graduated from Vailsburg High School in 1987. She had two sons, Caleb and Chris, who is a student at Charleston Southern University,

People hug as they pay their respects in front of Emanuel AME Church on Thursday in Charleston, S.C. Nine people were killed in a mass shooting during a prayer meeting at the church. according to his Twitter page, and a daughter, Camryn, who attends school in the same district in which her mother taught.

On Twitter, Chris Singleton asked people to “Pray for my mom please!!!!!!!” In another post, he says, “Something extremely terrible has happened to my mom tonight, please pray for her and my family.”

According to The Gazette, a Summerville-area newspaper, Coleman-Singleton had been employed by Berkeley County Public Schools since 2007.

The paper reported that Singleton’s son Chris was a twosport standout in baseball and basketball at Goose Creek High School and just finished his freshman season in Charleston Southern’s baseball program.

Goose Creek Gators baseball coach Chris Pond told the Gazette that Coleman-Singleton was a very supportive mother to Chris and his two younger siblings and also an “awesome” colleague.

“She was one of the best baseball fans you could have for your team,” he told the paper on Thursday morning. “She loved baseball and loved Chris…. She loved everyone and always had a positive attitude about everything. She’ll be greatly missed.”

and was an advocate for them, always willing to listen to and talk with them,” he said. “She was always there with a smile and ready to help. Mrs. Singleton will be deeply missed by the ‘Gator Nation’ and we can never replace her as a member of our team.”

The other victims were:

Tywanza Sanders, who was

a 2014 graduate of Allen University in the state capital, Columbia, where he got a degree in business administration.

According to his Facebook page, Sanders was originally from Charleston but was living in Columbia. An aspiring rapper who went by the name Fresh Wanza, according to the entertainment site Heavy.com, his songs includ-

ed the titles “Whats Wrong With Just Being Black” and “Making It.” A friend told the site that Sanders was working as a barber at the time of his death.

“He was a quiet, well-known student who was committed to his education,” said Allen University President Lady June Cole, as quoted by The State, a Columbia newspaper. “He presented a warm and helpful spirit as he interacted with his colleagues.“ Cole also described Sanders as an outgoing student with an “inkling toward entrepreneurship.”

“We’re in mourning, and we are praying for the families of the victims,” Cole said. “We hope that everyone will just respect their loss as well.”

Ethel Lee Lance, who was identified by her grandson Jon Quil Lance as someone who had worked at the church for 30 years. The New York Times reported that Lance was a sexton at the church.

Outside Medical University Hospital, the area trauma center where the wounded were taken, Lance smoked a cigarette and talked about his grandmother, the Post and Courier reported.

“I’m lost, I’m lost,” he said.

“Granny was the heart of the family.”

“She’s a Christian, hardworking; I could call my granny for anything. I don’t have anyone else like that.”

bombing in Birmingham, Ala., that killed four girls in 1963, Cohen said.

In 2013, the most recent year for which statistics are available, there were nearly 2,300 hate crimes directed against African Americans, down from 2,600 in 2010, according to the FBI. “The majority of these incidents involve only one or two victims at a time, so they often don’t rise to media attention or engage a debate about terrorism,” said J.M. Berger, a terrorism analyst.

The number of extreme-right

hate groups — which include white supremacists and anti-government militias — and criminal incidents from the groups have surged since 2009, said Mark Pitcavage, director of investigative research of the Anti-Defamation League. The surge is mostly fueled by anti-government groups, which proliferated after the election of President Obama in 2008.

Recent incidents include a shooting in 2012 at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., where skinhead Wade Michael Page killed six people and wounded four others before killing himself, and an

attack last year on a Jewish institution in Overland Park, Kan., by longtime white supremacist Frazier Glenn Miller, which killed three people, including one child.

Early signs — the white supremacist patches, the targeting of a predominantly AfricanAmerican church — indicate Roof is likely the latest on that list.

Like the others, he probably acted alone, Pitcavage said.

“There’s a chance that the suspect in this shooting may end up fitting a classic lone wolf profile,” he said.

Part of the challenge in combating these types of crimes is

that hate crimes tend to be vastly under-reported, said Booth Gunter, a senior editor with the Southern Poverty Law Center. In its most recent Hate Crime Statistics, the FBI reported there were 5,928 hate crime incidents in 2013.

A report released in 2013 by the Bureau of Justice Statistics said there were 293,800 hate crimes in 2012. The BJS study found about 90% of hate crimes were violent and 60% were not reported to police.

“That leads the public to believe this is not the problem that it really is,” Gunter said.

Cynthia Hurd, who was a regional branch manager from the Charleston County Public Library system, which closed its 16 locations Thursday in her honor, according to the Post and Courier.

“Her loss is incomprehensible, and we ask for prayers for her family, her co-workers, her church and this entire community as we come together to face this tragic loss,” the library said in a statement.

Library officials said they were “devastated by the senseless shootings.” They called Hurd “a tireless servant of the community who spent her life helping residents, making sure they had every opportunity for an education and personal growth.”

Hurd worked at the library for 31 years, serving as manager of two branches, both of which will also be closed on Friday, the library said.

Myra Thompson. Her

daughter Denise Quarles declined to comment when contacted by ABC News.

Daniel L. Simmons Sr.,

who was a retired pastor from another church in Charleston. His daughter-in-law, Arcelia Simmons of Newport News, Va., told ABC News that Simmons attended Emanuel AME Church every Sunday for services and Wednesdays for bible study. He is listed on the church’s website as a member of the ministerial staff.

NATION/WORLD RECORD-SETTING STING

HUNDREDS CHARGED WITH MEDICARE FRAUD Cases involve $700M in fraudulent billing Jayne O’Donnell USA TODAY

Federal officials charged 243 people with Medicare fraud Thursday, the most defendants representing the largest financial losses ever to the program.

A “strike force” including the Justice Department, FBI and Department of Health and Human Services and local officials brought cases in 17 districts, including Miami and New York.

The cases include 46 doctors, nurses and other licensed medi-

cal professionals such as physical and occupational therapists. The schemes involved more than $700 million in false billings.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch highlighted allegations involving the owners of a mental health facility in Miami who billed Medicare tens of millions for intensive psychotherapy sessions while only moving patients from one location to another.

Many of the patients suffered from Alzheimer’s and dementia and couldn’t communicate with alleged therapists or caregivers.

Many of the other schemes

Federal officials charged 243 people ... the most defendants representing with the largest financial losses ever to the program. were equally brazen: uFour people operating companies in Louisiana and California sent talking glucose monitors to Medicare recipients whether

they needed them or not and got more than $22 million from Medicare for doing so. u A Tampa pain management physician was paid more than $1 million for nerve conduction studies and other services that he allegedly never performed. u A Miami home care company received about $2.5 million in payments for services it allegedly never performed. And the six physicians listed as the patients’ doctors almost never billed Medicare for seeing the same patients.

One doctor had only made a claim for seeing four of 188 patients the company said he did. u In Brooklyn, nine people

were charged in two separate criminal schemes involving physical and occupational therapy. In one case, three individuals face charges for their roles in a $50 million physical therapy scheme that was part of an earlier case.

Six defendants were charged in a separate $8 million physical and occupational therapy scheme.

HHS Secretary Sylvia Burwell said the agency is being more proactive about rooting out Medicare fraud, including by doing more checking on providers “at the front end” before they can bill Medicare for services. She called it moving from a “pay and chase to a prevention model.”

Supreme Court OK with restricting license plates, but frowns on treating roadside signs differently based on content

Richard Wolf and Brad Heath USA TODAY

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court came down on both sides of the First Amendment on Thursday, giving state governments the right to deny specialty license plates but limiting local governments’ ability to restrict roadside signs.

The justices ruled 5-4 that states with specialty license plate programs promoting everything from “Choose Life” to “Conserve Water” can prohibit messages they find objectionable — in Texas’ case, the Confederate flag.

At the same time, they ruled unanimously that cities and towns generally cannot treat roadside signs differently based on content — something Gilbert, Ariz., had done by restricting a church’s worship-service signs far more than political and ideological signs.

The decisions came on the court’s busiest day for rulings this term. Racing toward an end-ofmonth deadline, the court issued six rulings on issues ranging from child abuse and drug laws to jury selection and capital punishment.

The flurry of opinions and dis-

PETE MAROVICH, BLOOMBERG

Justice Stephen Breyer sents left the justices with 11 undecided cases, including whether to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide and to strike down a key part of President Obama’s health care law.

Thursday’s marquee ruling by Justice Stephen Breyer was a bit of a surprise: A court that has steadfastly defended free speech rights said Texas could deny a specialty license plate honoring Confederate soldiers and featuring the Confederate flag.

“States have long used license plates in this country to convey government messages,” Breyer wrote for the majority.

Just as the state cannot force drivers to adopt a particular message, he said, drivers cannot force

a state to espouse theirs.

The ruling is a setback for the Sons of Confederate Veterans, which had challenged Texas’ denial of its license plate. Some state residents said the image of a Confederate flag symbolized racism and division, but the group argued it was merely honoring those who fought for the South during the Civil War. “The idea of inclusion, diversity, and tolerance apparently does not apply under law to those of us whose heritage is unpopular in some quarters,” said Charles Kelly Barrow, the organization’s commander in chief.

In the other free speech decision, the court said a town law limiting the size of the church’s signs and the length of time they could be displayed was an unconstitutional, “content-based” restriction for which the town had no justification.

The case was touted by lawyers for Good News Community Church as a major test of religious freedom, but the justices didn’t treat it that way.

Rather, they said local governments must be able to justify the disparate treatment accorded organizations seeking to spread their messages.

The high court Thursday gave state governments the right to deny specialty license plates but limited local governments’ ability to restrict roadside signs.

IN BRIEF WORLD’S OLDEST PERSON DIES AT 116

Jeralean Talley, who was the oldest known person in the world, died at her Inkster, Mich., home on Wednesday night.

The 116-year-old’s prayer was not to suffer, said Michael Kinloch, her longtime friend.

Talley, devotedly religious and a member of the New Jerusalem Missionary Baptist Church in Inkster, turned 116 on May 23.

Talley’s life spans parts of three centuries. She was born in Montrose, Ga. in 1899, and moved to Michigan in the 1930s. Her husband of 52 years, Alfred Talley, died in 1988 when he was 95 years old. The two had one child.

Talley reached the top spot on a list of the world’s oldest people kept by the Gerontology Research Group in April, outliving the average life expectancy — 78.8 years — by more than 37 years.

The commission’s three Democrats who voted for the rules included FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, who proposed them last month, citing the need to update regulations. The two Republicans voted against them, repeating industry claims that the new rules will unleash a flurry of frivolous lawsuits without providing consumers additional protection.

The rules, which take effect immediately, deny industry requests to be shielded from legal liability when making computergenerated cellphone calls and texts to wrong numbers or without a recipient’s permission.

Wheeler said the rules provide “sensible” but limited exceptions for alerts about financial fraud or medical emergencies.

The new rules give telephone service providers a green light to offer consumers call-blocking tools to stop unwanted contact.

Arguably the most popular figure on the planet takes an ocean of admirers to task over ecological plunder Thursday in a longawaited climate encyclical.

Pope Francis makes his case for combating global warming by employing a mix of lyrical phrasing, plain speak and tough love.

He gives the environmental community everything it hoped for: a swift dismissal of globalwarming deniers, along with an embrace of science showing how the planet is suffering and humans are largely at fault.

The trained chemist says he is convinced based on “the best scientific research available today” that global warming, rising seas and the likely fallout of extreme weather events are happening.

He sees fish-depleted seas, barren coral reefs and “thousands of plant and animal species” disappearing every year because of man’s profligacy. “We have no right,” Francis says.

VINCENZO PINTO, AFP GETTY IMAGES

A man holds a copy of Pope Francis' encyclical on climate change.

His more than 180-page encyclical — a letter circulated throughout the Catholic Church — includes poetry: “Soil, water, mountains: everything is, as it were, a caress of God. ... There is mystical meaning to be found in a leaf, in a mountain trail, in a dewdrop, in a poor person’s face.”

There is also brutal observation: “The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth.”

The core of his message, however, is a toughly worded warning about human behavior that the pontiff says is bringing Earth to ecological despair.

Francis places blame not just with global warming deniers but many faithful who are indifferent, resigned or foolishly await technology to solve everything.

Only the world’s poor escape papal wrath. He singles them out as the “excluded,” an “afterthought” in international political and economic discussions.

They are the least culpable for creating the problem, yet suffer most from the consequences: “When all is said and done, they frequently remain at the bottom of the pile.”

summers of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

With that said, there are stocks that have consistently been beating the market. Take Keurig Green Mountain. The stock has gained by an average of 20% over the past five quarters — well above the 1% average gain by the Standard & Poor’s 500 during the same time. Last summer, the stock rocketed 8.1% — blowing away the 1% gain by the market.

This summer, though, could be a big test for the stock’s summer prowess. Shares are under pressure this year following disappointing first-quarter results. But analysts are still thinking this stock can bounce big-time from the current level — and are calling for 39% upside in 18 months.

Some of the top stocks of the summer make logical sense. CF Industries has been a stellar performer during summer — posting average gains of nearly 20% — as investors anticipate the company’s second-quarter profit report.

Traditionally, the second quarter is one of the strongest for the company thanks to the spring seasonal pickup in business. Analysts see 1.7% upside in the stock over the next 18 months — but maybe the seasonal strength will surprise with a little something extra?

And then there’s Apple — which seems to be a stock that works no matter the season.

Shares of the gadget maker have gained 15% on average the past five summers.

The tech-stock barometer led a broad market rally, rising 68.07 points, or 1.3%, to 5132.95, topping its previous closing high of 5106.59 on May 19.

Perhaps more significant than the close was the fact the Nasdaq traded as high as 5143.32 Thursday, finally exceeding its previous intraday high of 5132.52 set March 10, 2000 — the day the Internet-fueled tech stock bubble hit its zenith.

“Investors are partying like it’s 1999,” says Alan Skrainka, chief investment officer at Cornerstone. “We’re seeing an explosion to the upside.”

Both the Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor’s 500 index stopped short of their records. The Dow gained 180 points, or 1.0%, to 18,116 — 1.1% below its May 19 record. The S&P rose 21 points, or 1.0%, to 2121.24, just 0.4% shy of its May 21 high.

Thursday’s gains came after signs from the Federal Reserve on Wednesday that the U.S. central bank might delay its first interest rate increase until December.

“Investors are partying like it’s 1999.”

Alan Skrainka, chief investment officer at Cornerstone

Previously, most economists had expected a hike in September, but now economists for Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are among those who say the Fed appears more likely to raise its benchmark interest rate in December.

Any bullishness about a delay in interest rate hikes was tempered by continued concern about a potential Greek default.

Optimism was in short supply as finance ministers from the 19country Eurozone met with the heads of the International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank.

Greece was told it could not delay its debt repayment to the IMF on June 30 and that its creditors were looking at a plan B — code for a Greek exit from the Euro.

The 19 Eurozone leaders have been summoned to an emergency meeting in Brussels on Monday to try and resolve the crisis.

NBC News said Thursday that it has demoted Brian Williams as anchor of its marquee nightly newscast to a position at MSNBC, a fall from grace for the journalist who was arguably the most popular American TV newsman until he was caught fibbing about his work.

Lester Holt, who has substituted for Williams as the anchor of NBC Nightly News while Williams was serving his six-month suspension, was named permanent anchor for the evening news program.

“I’m sorry. I said things that weren’t true,” Williams said in a

statement. “I let down my NBC colleagues and our viewers, and I’m determined to earn back their trust.”

Williams, who was an anchor at MSNBC from 1996 to 2004, agreed to take a substantial pay cut to rejoin MSNBC, said an NBC official who spoke on condition of anonymity to speak more freely.

Williams will work at MSNBC as anchor of breaking news and special reports. He will appear on NBC News as a breaking news anchor when Holt is not available. “Television news stands at a crossroads, and Lester is the perfect person to meet the moment,” said Andy Lack, chairman of NBC News and MSNBC. Williams’ continued employ-

ment with NBC reflects his congenial appeal that made NBC Nightly News the most popular evening network news show in

the USA. The decision by executives at NBCUniversal shows that they were hesitant to pay for Williams’ likely expensive severance and see him take his talent to a rival network.

“This may be a financially shrewd move, but it’s morally bankrupt,” said Mark Feldstein, a broadcast journalism professor at the University of Maryland-College Park and a former journalist at NBC. Williams, who had served as the chief anchor and managing editor of NBC Nightly News, was suspended in February after he was challenged about a statement he made about his reporting tour in Iraq in 2003. Williams said he was on a helicopter that had been forced down. Veterans challenged his story on Facebook. Williams eventually recanted the story.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Matt Krantz USA TODAY

The Federal Reserve is speaking investors’ language. And it’s not Greek.

Investors continue to shrug off scary headlines about Greek debt — comforted knowing the Fed appears prepared to stay accomodative. The result is a remarkably stable market in spite of what normally would be disruptive events.

Yes, there’s plenty of upward action to be found with the most speculative corners of the market.

The tech- and biotech-heavy Nasdaq composite index has pushed to its highest intraday level since the dot-com boom. And the Dow Jones industrial average added 180 points Thursday to 18,116 even as many economists are braced for short-term interest

rates to start increasing as soon as September. But even with the Dow’s move Thursday, it has been remarkably stable despite fears of corrections or other bad things.

So far, the Dow is up 1.6% for the year — but it’s been hovering around break-even all year. The Dow has crossed above or below the break-even mark for the year 18 times so far this year, says Bespoke Investment Group. Never before, since at least since 1900, has the Dow crossed the unchanged line so many times during the year this far in, Bespoke says.

It’s not just the Dow that’s been holding up so well. The Standard & Poor’s 500 hasn’t been up or down by more than 3.5% for the year any time this year. The S&P 500 has never been this stable at this point in a year in history. The only year that even comes close is 1952.

Shares of Fitbit (FIT) surged in its first day of trading Thursday, as the wearable health-tracking device maker made a splash in its initial public offering.

Fitbit, which trades under the NYSE ticker FIT, opened for trading shortly after 10 a.m. ET with an opening price of $30.40 a share. The stock was up 50% from its initial price of $20 during regular trading hours.

More than 40 million shares of Fitbit were traded, putting the

Fitbit’s successful IPO launch came the same day the Dow rose about 200 points, and Nasdaq broke its 15-year-old all-time record high.

Fitbit Chief Financial Officer Bill Zerella said he was happy with the reception the company received on Wall Street.

Strong start, but stock only for speculators Q: Is Fitbit the next GoPro? Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Shares of Fitbit soared 50% on their first day of trading. Investors might wonder if this is the best way to play the mash-up of technology and active living since GoPro. Fitbit, founded in 2007 to help people track how active they are, is attractive to investors primarily because it’s growing rapidly, but also is profitable. The company reported net income of $131.8 million during 2014, reversing a loss of $51.6 million during the previous year. Meanwhile, the company’s revenue has been jumping.

It reached $745.4 million in 2014, up from $271.1 million in 2013.

Shares of Fitbit are off to an even stronger start than GoPro, which sold shares to the public in June 2014. Shares of GoPro jumped 31% on their first day of trading to $31.34 a share. And since that first day close, shares are up another 85%.

Fitbit investors hope that’s the trajectory, too. At the current stock price, Fitbit is worth roughly $4 billion. That means the company trades for roughly 37 times diluted trailing earnings. That’s pricey relative to the market, but below the 66-times P-E of GoPro by the same measure.

Fitbit faces huge dangers from saturation and competition from the likes of Microsoft and Apple. Yes, this stock’s valuation could catch up with GoPro’s, but it’s still only for speculators.

Partnering with (NYSE) gives us some really great opportunities.”

Fitbit offers six wearable health and fitness trackers, with online dashboard and mobile apps that automatically sync with the devices.

The San Francisco-based company faces a crowded marketplace, with competition from other wearable health-trackers such as Nike+, Apple Watch and Samsung Gear. Competitor Jawbone recently sued Fitbit for al-

legedly poaching employees who spilled their sensitive corporate information.

Some analysts say that Fitbit faces a steady competition from the Apple Watch, which customers can now reserve for in-store pickup.

But Charlie Anderson, senior research analyst at Dougherty & Company, said Fitbit’s exclusive focus on health tracking will work to its advantage over Apple Watch over the short term.

“Everything seems to be in Fitbit’s favor — its a new category, and retailers love to sell it,” Anderson said.

Schumer, who is now headlining a seven-city promotional comedy tour in support of her upcoming movie, ‘Trainwreck’ (in theaters July 17), posted the news on her Twitter feed Thursday. “Guess who auditioned for Madonna and got the part?” she wrote, sharing a video of herself as a child singing ‘Like a Prayer.’

LOS ANGELES Even Joy has an off day.

That’s the quagmire facing Amy Poehler, who voices the happiest of emotions in Pixar’s Inside Out. The animated tale (in theaters Friday) takes audiences inside an 11-year-old’s mind, where Joy (Poehler) mans the controls alongside Anger (Lewis Black), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Fear (Bill Hader).

But it’s an odd day to be shilling for happiness, given the voice inside Poehler’s head at this particular moment.

“I’m actually having kind of a sad day,” she says.

“It’s interesting to be feeling that, but nobody knows it — and to be talking about joy. The movie kind of makes you take your emotional temperature.”

Inside Out is an abstract workplace comedy blended into a coming-of-age tale. Riley is a typical , happy child until her parents uproot the family, moving thousands of miles away. When Joy and Sadness get sucked out of mission control into the recesses of Riley’s candy-colored brain, the child finds herself in danger of losing core memories.

Inside Out, like Pixar’s 2009

DAN MACMEDAN, USA TODAY; INSET BY DISNEY/PIXAR

Mindy Kaling, Amy Poehler and Phyllis Smith are the voices of Disgust, Joy and Sadness. triumph Up, plays to kids and parents.

“When your kid is having a freakout or a breakdown, all you want to do is say, ‘It’s going to be OK,’ ” says Poehler, mom to Archie, 6, and Abel, 4.

Office talk with the trio shines a light on perceived emotional boundaries in Hollywood. What emotions can these women show at work? “It’s like No. 172 of things that women have to think about that men don’t really have to think about: How emotional am I being?” Poehler says.

“When (Mindy) got picked up for Season 2, I remember crying when I announced it,” Kaling says. “And I’m happy I didn’t disguise that, because if you’re going to have people working for you

18, 20 hours a day, they need to know that you’re really invested.”

“That was a happy cry, so that’s an accepted cry,” Smith points out. “But if you’re crying because you’re truly angry, you have to control it a bit more.”

But in the world of Inside Out, the message is that every emotion has its place — even gloom. “Inherently, life is hard for everybody,” Kaling says. “I was a child who felt very melancholy and lost, and I was very sensitive. This movie says that’s OK.” And so when Riley can no longer tolerate her new classmates’ jeers, the loss of her hockey team or her dad’s job stress in San Francisco, she goes numb.

“I love that moment when the board goes black and she’s not feeling anything,” Poehler says.

“And you’re like, ‘That’s an option?! Oh, my God!’ ”

Factors to consider when selecting a Realtor Linda a. ditch

Hometown Lawrence

Their smiling faces look up from every page in the real estate section. Buyers and sellers depend on agents to help navigate the real estate maze. The right one will make the process as smooth as possible. The wrong one can jeopardize your home buying or selling dream. How can you tell the difference?

Start with knowing the difference between a real estate agent and one designated as a Realtor. Crystal Swearingen, president of the Lawrence Board of Realtors, explained, “A real estate agent is someone who is licensed to sell real estate but not a member of the National Association of Realtors, and as such is not held to the code of ethics that Realtors must adhere to.”

Also important to know is the

difference between a designated seller’s agent and a designated buyer’s agent. The one found in a house’s listing is the seller’s agent, whose primary responsibility is to those selling the house. When buying a house, look for a buyer’s agent who will represent your interests. Some agents will say they can represent both the buyer and seller in the same transaction, but it is ideal to have one who is only looking after what’s best for you.

Other factors to look at when choosing a Realtor include: Is real estate their full-time job? It is best to choose someone who earns his or her primary income from being a Realtor.

How long have they been in the real estate business? Though newcomers can be good agents, a seasoned veteran offers distinct

advantages.

Is the agent a relative? Family dynamics can impact the real estate transaction. It is better to go with someone else.

Was the Realtor recommended by family or friends? If the Realtor did a good job for them, chances are they will for you, too.

How well does the agent know your neighborhood? Look for someone who sells in your area since they will be well-informed about the current real estate market.

Do they deal with your type of property? If you’re looking to buy or sell a mansion, house, condo or investment property, look for a professional who has experience in that type of listing. They will be familiar with any of the quirks associated with your type of transaction.

Buying and selling a house can be an emotional process for most people so it’s nice to have a Realtor who can understand the process.”

— Crystal Swearingen, Lawrence Board of Realtors President.

Also, feel free to check out a professional with the Kansas Real Estate Commission. You can find out if they are licensed and if there have been any complaints filed against them. (Go to www. kansas.gov/krec for details.).

“A buyer or seller should expect honesty, integrity and communication from their Realtor,” Swearingen said.

“Buying and selling a house can be an emotional process for

most people so it’s nice to have a Realtor who can understand the process, communicate effectively what is going on during the transaction, and assist their clients by providing them the information necessary to make an informed decision.”

ROCK CHALK ROUNDBALL CLASSIC

League-worthy?

THE RED TEAM’S MARIO LITTLE SHOOTS OVER BEN MCLEMORE during the annual Rock Chalk Roundball Classic on Thursday at Free State High. Proceeds from the game, which featured former Kansas University players, benefit families fighting cancer.

Little stellar — like, NBA-caliber — at Classic

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University guard/forward Mario Little has played in the NBA Developmental League, but not yet received a call-up to the big show.

“He’s very talented. Just watching him tonight ... he can get places. He can shoot the basketball. In terms of athleticism, ability to guard and get a shot, he can definitely do all those things,” assessed former Kansas University and NBA guard Rex Walters.

Walters, the 45-year-old coach of the University of San Francisco Dons, hit a three-pointer and scored five points, while the 6-foot-6, 27-year-old Little went for a game-high 34 points in the Red Team’s 102-91 victory over the Blue squad in a festive Rock Chalk Roundball Classic/KU alumni game on Thursday at Free State High.

Little started the 2014-15 season with Oklahoma City’s

REX WALTERS HEADS IN for an easy layup.

D-League team, but in search of making good money finished the season in Spain’s pro league.

Why hasn’t he received a shot with an NBA team?

“I don’t know,” Little said.

“Everybody gives me kudos and tells me to keep working.

That’s what I continue to do.

Sometimes it’s about timing.

It’s just about timing.”

Little hit six threes Thursday night and outscored everybody on the court, including Blue team member Ben McLemore of the Sacramento Kings, who had 33 points, including a batch of spectacular dunks. Tyshawn Taylor had 21 for the Blues, while Cole Aldrich and Tyrel Reed had 20 and Elijah Johnson 19 for the Reds.

Asked about his ability to put the ball in the basket, former national juco player of the year Little said: “It’s different levels. Here in a game like this, it’s easier. Up top where I’ve been trying to get, it’s a little more difficult.

I do what I can. I enjoy it, though.”

Little, who also has played in Ukraine, may be in the best shape of his life. He’s normally listed at 210 pounds.

“I’m healthy, not as heavy as I was at KU,” he said. “I’ve been playing a lot, gaining Please see CLASSIC, page 3C

Guard Graham hurt at camp, will miss trip to South Korea Kansas University sophomore point guard Devonté Graham suffered a partially torn quad tendon above the knee in Wednesday’s KU campers game and will have his knee immobilized three weeks, coach Bill Self said Thursday night.

Graham will not need surgery, Self said, but Graham will definitely not play in the upcoming World University Games. Self on Thursday night was not sure which knee was injured.

“He is totally immobilized for three weeks, then we’ll see how long it takes before he’s back playing,”

Self said. “He’s lost to us for South Korea. He will not play in South Korea. I feel bad for Devonté, because he’d been playing great. He may or may not go on the trip, but he won’t play.”

Self said he would try to find another guard from another school to bring on the trip.

“I haven’t talked to anybody,” Self said. “We have to find somebody not in summer school and can be gone three weeks. I don’t know how big our pool is.”

Graham scored five points in the first half of Wednesday’s campers game. It is not known if the 6-foot-2 Graham hurt himself coming down from a vicious slam dunk. He did not play in the second half.

Ailing Woodland hospitalized University Place, Wash. (ap) — Gary Woodland has been admitted to a local hospital and diagnosed with a virus after playing in the first round of the U.S. Open at Chambers Bay. Woodland’s agent, Mark Steinberg, said in a statement Thursday afternoon that Woodland had been admitted to Tacoma General Hospital.

Steinberg said Woodland, a former Kansas University golfer, had not been feeling well since Sunday. He thought he was feeling better, but then began to feel worse again in the last 36 hours. Woodland received IV fluids on Thursday

Chiefs enjoying offseason stability Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — With minicamp over, the Chiefs are set to experience two major firsts when the team reports for training camp in late July.

The upcoming season marks the first time in 12 years the Chiefs have the same coaching staff for a third straight year.

“Continuity is a big thing,” coach Andy Reid said. “Dorse (general manager John Dorsey) has done a good job keeping players around here, too, so that helps.

“But we all kind of know as a coaching staff where we’re going, what direction we’re going in and I think that’s important.”

Continuity also applies to quarterback Alex Smith, who for the first time in his 11year career has the same head coach, offensive coordinator (Doug Pederson) and quarterbacks coach (Matt Nagy) in three straight seasons.

That stability has made a difference for Smith, who hasn’t been in a consistent environment in consecutive years since his college career at Utah.

“You’re just so comfortable, you know what to expect coming into work,” Smith said. “But then on the field, it’s hard to quantify. I think all the little details add up over those couple of years that you’ve kind of memory banked, and then you’re out on the field and it’s not just you that’s further along, I think the reality is you have a bunch of guys around you that it’s the same case. All of sudden, they’re in their third year of the system and that’s a rarity in the NFL.” Smith understands the scarcity after experiencing a headspinning carousel of four head coaches, seven offensive coordinators and six quarterback coaches in eight seasons with the San Francisco 49ers before being traded to Kansas City in 2013.

The former first overall pick of the 2005 draft had his career stall in San Francisco, a period that didn’t go unnoticed to Ohio State coach Urban Meyer, who coached Smith at Utah.

“I think especially for a player like Alex, he’s a very cerebral guy that once he figures it out, in my opinion, there’s no stopping him,” Meyer said during a telephone interview.

“The problem is — the obvious — if you change coordinators and systems, and then all of sudden they were also going through a little bit of a talent issue there where they just weren’t very good on either side of the ball, and the first guy to take a hit is the quarterback.

“I was getting asked a lot of questions about that, ‘Why is Alex struggling?’” Meyer added. “And I kept thinking to myself, if Alex Smith can’t play quarterback in the NFL, then I will never have one. He’s a prototypical quarterback, great intelligence, arm delivery and the way he manages and leads a team.”

KANSAS CITY STARTING PITCHER YORDANO VENTURA THROWS DURING A GAME against the St. Louis Cardinals on June 12 in St. Louis. On Thursday, the team placed Ventura on the 15-day disabled list because of right ulnar nerve inflammation.

Another Royals starter lands on disabled list Kansas City, Mo. — Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura has been put on the 15-day disabled list because of right ulnar nerve inflammation.

Ventura, Kansas City’s opening-day starter, is 3-6 with a 4.68 ERA in 12 starts. He left his June 12 outing with weakness and numbness in his right hand and fingers, then experienced hand cramps after a bullpen session Wednesday.

Ventura joins left-handed starters Danny Duffy and Jason Vargas on the disabled list.

The AL champions recalled right-hander Yohan Pino from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday, and he is to take Ventura’s turn today against Boston. Pino was 4-2 with a 4.93 ERA with Omaha and 0-1 with 0.64 ERA in six relief appearances this season with Kansas City.

“I take these allegations very seriously,” Fenves said.

Chiefs safety’s cousin killed Kansas City, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs safety Sanders Commings lost his cousin, Clementa Pinckney, who was shot and killed Wednesday night in Charleston, S.C. “We are grieving for he and his family members,” head coach Andy Reid said.

Reid said there is no medical update on strong safety Eric Berry, who recently finished lymphoma treatments.

Reid said the Chiefs and outside linebacker Justin Houston’s representative continue to talk.

“We’ll continue to move on and hope that he is here at the beginning of camp,” Reid said of Houston.

Cornerback Sean Smith was excused for the final day of minicamp for personal reasons.

Austin, Texas — In the wake of allegations of misconduct within the men’s basketball program, new University of Texas President Greg Fenves has ordered a sweeping review of all academic services in the athletic department.

“Academic integrity is the core of everything we do,” Fenves said.

Fenves had been on the job just a few days when the Chronicle of Higher Education last week reported allegations of misconduct involving three former men’s basketball players dating back to 2006.

The school immediately hired an outside investigator to probe the allegations, which Fenves said could take a “couple of months.”

He said nothing has been discovered in the first few days of that investigation that he would consider a major concern.

Fenves was the school provost and oversaw admissions before he was promoted to

Fifty Kansas University freshmen were named to the All-Big 12 Rookie Team, the league announced Thursday.

Oklahoma, with 60, was the only school with more student-athletes on the team, which recognizes new, first-time incoming freshmen who have completed 24 semester hours of non-remedial coursework and achieved a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.00.

Additionally, the student-athlete must have participated in at least one of his team’s scheduled contests and must have been a member of that respective team for their sport’s entire NCAA Championship segment.

SCOREBOARD Baseball Astros win fifth straight MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP

The Associated Press

Interleague Astros 8, Rockies 4 Denver — Preston Tucker homered and drove in three runs, pinch-hitter Domingo Santana got his first major-league home run, and Houston beat Colorado for its fifth straight win.

Carlos Correa stole three bases, and George Springer extended his hitting streak to 11 games as the Astros swept the four-game, home-andhome series with the reeling Rockies. The Astros hit six homers in two games at Coors Field, raising their AL-leading total to 97.

Collin McHugh (73) treated himself to an early birthday present by getting the win despite allowing three runs, four hits and a season-high five walks in six innings.

McHugh, who turns 28 today, settled down after surrendering a three-run homer to Carlos Gonzalez in the first.

Red Sox 5, Braves 2 Atlanta — Clay Buchholz pitched seven strong innings, and Boston, after benching third baseman Pablo Sandoval, beat Atlanta for its second win in 10 games.

Manager John Farrell didn’t play Sandoval after the former World Series MVP used his Instagram account Wednesday night during a loss to the Braves. Sandoval apologized to the team before the game, and Farrell said he won’t be fined or suspended.

Buchholz (4-6) gave up two unearned runs and six hits. Koji Uehara worked the ninth for his 14th save.

Shelby Miller (5-3) took the loss.

The Red Sox ended a seven-game road losing streak.

U.S. OPEN

Stenson, Johnson lead University Place, Wash. (ap) — One mystery was solved Thursday in the U.S. Open.

Chambers Bay can be as hard as the USGA wants it to be. Henrik Stenson and Dustin Johnson shared the lead at 5-under 65, and the other 23 players who managed to break par in a gentle debut of the new golf course off Puget Sound agreed that it likely will only get tougher the rest of the way.

Another mystery deepened. Tiger Woods.

In a hole deeper than that bunker he found by topping a 3-wood on his final hole, Woods sunk to another low with the highest opening round of his PGA Tour career and his worst score by three shots in two decades at the U.S. Open. He shot an 80, which would have been even more shocking if he hadn’t had two scores even worse already this year.

“I fought. I fought hard.

And that was my number,” Woods said.

At least this time he had company. Woods beat only two players in the 156-man field. One of them was Rickie Fowler, who shot an 81.

Their scores were hardly a reflection of the way Chambers Bay was playing.

Johnson was flawless and powerful. His only mistake came on his final hole when he pulled a 6-iron on the par-3 ninth over the green and made his only bogey. Stenson, among the cynical of Chambers Bay when he first saw it, birdied four

TIGER WOODS REACTS TO HIS TEE SHOT ON THE EIGHTH HOLE during his round of 80 on the first round of the U.S. Open on Thursday in University Place, Washington. of his last five holes. He poured in a 25-footer on the 18th for his 65.

They had a one-shot lead over Patrick Reed.

Matt Kuchar, Ben Martin and Brian Campbell, the amateur who just finished his college career at Illinois, were at 67. In the group one shot behind was Masters champion Jordan Spieth, a 21-yearold Texan who has been around long enough to know that anything around par is considered good work at a U.S. Open.

“I think if I did it three more times, I’d be in really good position come Sunday,” Spieth said. “No complaints there.’

Rory McIlroy had a rough day. He was frustrated with the bumpy greens and shot 72.

Several tees were moved forward. Several pins were in spots where the slopes

could be used to get the ball close. Complaints — except for the greens — were at minimum.

“My guess was there would be 20 to 30 guys under par after today, and by the end there will be barely any,” Geoff Ogilvy said after his 69. “With a course like this, I would have thought that would be a sensible strategy to keep us all happy on Thursday and then gradually wear us down.”

Woods wasn’t happy, though he managed a few laughs.

“The bright side is at least I kicked Rickie’s butt today,” he said.

Woods said he was on the right path with his new swing, but it was taking time and he was trying his hardest. That’s the message he gave at Memorial after his 85, yet his struggles were never more

Yost Royals’ top skipper

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — No manager in Kansas City Royals’ history has won as many games as Ned Yost.

The latest win came Thursday night, when Alcides Escobar had three hits, and Jeremy Guthrie pitched six effective innings as the Royals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 3-2.

With the victory, Yost surpassed Whitey Herzog as the winningest manager in franchise history with 411. Earlier in the month, Yost moved past Dick Howser, who managed the Royals to their only World Series championship in 1985.

“It’s nice, but again I don’t look at it as an individual achievement,” Yost said “First of all, I don’t feel like I’m in the same class as Whitey Herzog and Dick Howser, one. Two, this is an organizational-wide achievement, and I’m proud to be part of that. Everybody is involved.”

Yost said general manager Dayton Moore could have fired him “two or three times, but didn’t.”

Yost has a 411-427 record to hack out of the rough as Royals manager. on No. 8.

Chambers Bay showed off some of its nuances.

Camilo Villegas took four shots to get out of a bunker on No. 12 that ruined his birdie-birdie start. Jason Day was motoring along toward the leaders until a stiff breeze showed up off Puget Sound and he left his tee shot on the par-3 15th hole some 15 yards short of the green, buried in the sand just beyond a mound of tall fescue. Day still managed a 68.

“It’s only going to get tougher and tougher as the week goes on and everyone knows that,” Day said. “It’s all about the attitude. You have to have a good attitude in U.S. Opens. It’s easy to play yourself out of the tournament real quick here.”

much and didn’t always keep their line.

“They are not the best that I’ve ever putted on,” Rory McIlroy said diplomatically.

Still, the course for the most part looked great on television, even if viewers had trouble figuring out where the fairways ended and the greens began. And that was the most important thing for the USGA, which signed a deal worth nearly $100 million a year with Fox that pushed this tournament into primetime.

There were long views of the water, and the trains running by. There were also plenty of shots of Tiger Woods looking miserable, though that’s pretty much a given in recent times.

Woods even threw a club, though this time he didn’t mean to as it flew up a hillside as he tried

Davis pitched out of a bases loaded, one-out jam in the eighth. He retired Adam Lind on a foul popup then struck out Scooter Gennett looking.

Holland, who gave up three runs, four hits and a walk at Milwaukee on Monday, worked the ninth to earn his 12th save in 13 opportunities.

The Brewers got all their runs in the fifth on Gerardo Parra’s sacrifice fly and Jonathan Lucroy’s two-out RBI single.

Brewers starter Jimmy Nelson (3-8) surrendered three runs and a career-high 11 hits in five innings. In his past two starts, Nelson has allowed 21 hits and 10 runs in 10 innings.

“Right now I’m discouraged because we lost,” Nelson said. “I don’t care how many hits I give up as long as we win. It’s hard to think about anything good right now after a loss.”

Friend always gets her way at the movies Dear Annie: For the past 20 years, a good female friend of mine and I have gotten together every few weeks for walks, lunch and movies.

The problem is, whenever we go to the movies, she always picks. I’m a pretty easygoing person and will see whatever she wants because even if the movie doesn’t sound great, I’m willing to give it a try. But whenever I say I would really love to see suchand-such a movie, she will never go. She gives excuses, like reading a review she didn’t like. In all the years we’ve seen films together, she has never once agreed to see one of my choices.

Don’t all relationships require compromise? I feel like I do all the giving and she does all the taking. Any suggestions? — Had Enough of This

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

Dear Had: Does she do this only with movies? If so, she may simply not be adventurous enough to see anything she isn’t certain she will like, or she may be uncomfortable with certain types of films, such as horror movies or documentaries and too embarrassed to say so. But if she tries to dominate every decision (type of restaurant, where you go walking, etc.), then she has a control-

A derivative but exciting Syfy thriller Science fiction makes more sense to me when people have real jobs. “Blade Runner” was driven by Deckard’s (Harrison Ford) grim task of hunting down wayward replicants.

“Killjoys” (8 p.m., Syfy), a Canadian series debuting tonight, takes a similar approach.

Killjoy is the nickname given to an intergalactic bounty hunter. In a universe colonized by rival nations and corporations, the Killjoys report to a shadow organization that answers to no one.

When the Killjoys are given a warrant to capture or kill, they owe their allegiance to the warrant and the warrant alone.

Their assignments combine mere procedure with interstellar travel and continual physical danger — and provide this futuristic fantasy with plenty of opportunities for martial arts mayhem. Maybe too much. It seems like at least one-third of the pilot involves mixed martial arts in a prison planet “fight club,” or kickboxing action between the Killjoys and their prey. But for some viewers that may be a plus.

The series revolves around John Jaqobis (Aaron Ashmore), levelheaded and handsome, and Dutch (Hannah John-Kamen), exotically beautiful and utterly dangerous. They live and work together, but share no romantic or sexual relationship — for now. Just how long this 21stcentury “Moonlighting” routine endures is anybody’s guess. By the end of the pilot, John’s longestranged brother, D’avin (Luke Macfarlane), joins their ranks.

“Killjoys” might be dismissed as mere hyper-violent eye candy without its adventurous and imaginative take on a universe of weird and wonderful subcultures. The Killjoys’ assignments take them from planets dominated by Sahara-like climates and desert bazaar culture, to posh parties out of Town and Country magazine blessed by what look like Hindu monks, to grim industrial wastelands awash in permanent downpours — a nod, no doubt, to “Blade Runner,” the prime mover behind fantasies like “Killjoys.”

This is not groundbreaking or exactly cerebral television, but the scenery is exciting enough to make one go along for the ride. And speaking of rides, this may be a star-making vehicle for John-Kamen (“Black Mirror,” “The Hour”), who appeared in the London stage musical “Viva Forever,” based on the songs of the Spice Girls.

Tonight’s other highlights

ling personality.

You say she is a good friend. We assume she is pleasant company and there are other things you like about her. You have multiple ways of dealing with this: Put up with her choices and see the films that interest you with other likeminded people; take movies off the list of activities to do together; tell her the next movie is your pick or you aren’t interested; or talk to her, letting her know her intransigence on the issue is building resentment and damaging the friendship.

Dear Annie: Thank you for standing firm on your advice to “Blainville, Quebec,” who thought it was OK for a wedding guest to ask to bring her boyfriend.

I host many events and am amazed by how many people do not un-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, June 19: This year you will be described as having your head in the clouds.

Often people feel as if you are not listening to them because of this tendency. Keep a notebook on you to jot down ideas that pop up at unexpected times. If you are single, you might meet someone who understands you very well.

If you are attached, share more of your wilder thoughts with your significant other.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You simply can’t make a bad choice, as all possibilities seem very desirable. Tonight: Let it all hang out.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Play it low-key, and stay close to home. Should you need to work, try doing so from home.

Tonight: Invite some friends over.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Say what you want, and then do what you want. Others will be unusually receptive to your ideas. Tonight: As you like it.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You will be more in touch with your feelings than you have been in a long time. Tonight: Make it OK to be treated.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You’ll be a receptive ear to a partner or friend. Let your imagination flow. Tonight: Beam in what you want.

derstand that an invitation addressed solely to one person does not automatically include a plus one. It’s not only the budget. It’s the seating arrangements, keeping to the guest limits, accommodations and meals. “Just one more” makes a huge difference, especially when several people want to add someone.

It is wrong to put a bride on the spot by making her feel obligated to incur an additional expense or explain to her new inlaws why she is changing the guest limit. It is never permissible to forego good manners and ask for whatever a person wants. — Massachusetts — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might not have as much say as you would like, so you’ll become more of an observer. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might feel as if nothing can stop you, but you still will need to rethink a situation.

Tonight: Have fun!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Stay on top of an important situation. Your creativity will find the right path once again.

Tonight: As easy as it gets.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might be overwhelmed by all the chatter around you and by the questions directed at you. Tonight: Try a new spot for TGIF! Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll find discussions to be far more rewarding when they are done on a one-on-one level. Tonight: With a favorite person.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Though the attention might be focused on a loved one or a dear friend, you’ll enjoy being less visible. Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be overwhelmed by the many ideas that keep popping into your head.

Tonight: Join friends for TGIF. — The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.
