Jayhawks forced to switch jerseys to ‘USA’

Exclusive coverage: The United States beat Brazil on Sunday morning to advance to 2-0 in world play in South Korea. For full coverage, including stories, photos and videos, visit KUSports.com/korea. Sports, 1C Contributed Photo

Gwangju, South Korea — The Kansas University men's basketball team had a new look when it represented the United States in a 81-72 victory against Brazil in the World University Games on Sunday.

After FIBA requested that the jersey put "USA" in a bigger role, the Jayhawks put a red patch with a white outline for the letters "USA" across the front of their blue jerseys.

"FIBA asked us to enhance 'USA' on our jerseys, and we gladly did it," said Sean Lester,

KU Deputy Athletics Director.

If the Jayhawks didn't change their jerseys, they could have been forced to forfeit games by rule. The team wore red "Kansas basketball" T-shirts in warmups with a Jayhawk logo below it, but were told to remove the shirts because they didn't say "USA." After retreating to the locker room, the Jayhawks wore their game jerseys for the final 30 minutes of their warmup.

"It was obviously something that was told that we had to do,

which is fine," KU coach Bill Self said, "even though we were given the clearance that our uniforms were good when went through the whole process earlier.”

The new jersey will remain for the rest of the World University Games.

The Jayhawks went to a local shop in Gwangju for their new jerseys.

They dropped them off on Saturday night and picked them up around noon Sunday.

Lawrence soccer fans celebrate World Cup

Within five minutes of opening its doors ahead of the Women’s World Cup final Sunday evening, the Red Lyon Tavern had reached its capacity, and owner Jerry Neverve was shaking his head, turning people away.

“This year it’s been busy for all the matches,” Neverve said.

About an hour Sports: More reaction to before kickoff, a crowd keen to the Women’s World Cup watch the U.S. win. 1C play Japan in Canada waited outside the bar, some wearing American flags fastened capelike around their necks, and soccer chants could be heard echoing down an otherwise quiet Massachusetts Street.

“He’s very smart and he just has the work ethic,” Spooner said. “And his parents are wonderful.

They’re right behind him, coming to every lesson. His mom comes in and takes notes and works with him at the house. He obviously has talent, but it’s a combination of the two.”

While they encourage his tenacity, Liu’s parents said he places large amounts of pressure on himself, especially nearing competitions.

Rather than pushing him harder, the couple tries to help their son release that pressure, Gaisheng Liu said.

“We want him to do well and to practice, but we feel we don’t want to push too hard,” he said. “When he wants to do something, he wants to do it well, but he’s got to make that decision himself.”

When he’s not playing music, Liu said, he enjoys playing tennis, soccer and basketball.

“But not volleyball,” he said. “I don’t want to hurt my fingers.”

Along with sports and other outdoor activities, Liu said he also enjoys his studies. He is currently set to enter the third grade at Quail Run Elementary School.

Liu plans on competing again at Kaufman Music Center in 2017. When he grows up, he wants to be a pianist, a goal both his parents and teacher support.

“I see a bright future for him,” Spooner said. “If this is what he wants to do later in life, I see endless possibilities for him. He has determination, consistency and discipline. And he really loves music.”

Kansas Secretary of Administration Jim Clark, who is retiring this month, requested the bill, saying that in a modern work environment, supervisors need more flexibility to adjust job duties and reorganize positions.

Department of Administration spokesman John Milburn said the change was not aimed at reducing union membership, and that moving positions from classified to unclassified will not automatically remove them from union protection.

“There are some positions represented by KOSE

that are unclassified already,” Milburn said.

Under state law, people in classified positions are protected by the Kansas Civil Service Act, which entitles them to due process hearings before they can be fired or disciplined. That law is intended to make sure that hiring and firing of state employees is based on merit and performance, rather than political patronage.

But whether a position is covered by a union collective bargaining contract, Milburn said, is determined by the specific job description and duties that are performed. He said the Public Employer-Employee Relations Act, or PEERA, sets out which jobs are covered by collective bargaining and which are not.

Milburn acknowledged,

3,000 positions,” Proctor said. “Our unit, from October 2014 to January 2015, lost 500 positions.”

House Bill 2391 was one of two significant bills considered during the 2015 session that dealt directly with protections and bargaining rights of public employees.

The other, House Bill 2096, would have gone much further by eliminating the Public Employee Relations Board and repealing the right of employees to file grievances. It also would have repealed laws providing for mediation, factfinding and arbitration in public employer-employee relations, and it would have limited collective bargaining to just the issues of salaries and wages, eliminating other

however, that it is possible some employees could be removed from collective bargaining if the agency decides to make significant changes in the person’s job description.

“They would still have to work under the PERB designations,” Milburn said.

Proctor, however, said she believes that reducing worker protections and curbing the power of labor unions has been part of the Brownback administration’s agenda since he came into office.

She said KOSE currently represents a little less than 9,000 state workers. That’s down from its peak of about 13,000 members in 2007 and 2008, she said.

“Gov. Brownback bragged in his State of the State address about cutting

Summer of Service teens give back

By Micki Chestnut Special to the Journal-World

K

risten Rawls watched something amazing happen as he served alongside a group of teens who were handing out bags of groceries to hungry families. The teens, who were volunteering for the Penn House mobile food pantry in June, felt awkward at first. But their fear melted as the long line of people,

queued up to receive fresh fruits and vegetables, started to roll through.

“As they started interacting with the families, they started livening up,” said Rawls, a United Way AmeriCorps member who is a Summer of Service team leader, supervising the 73 middle school and high school students who will participate in the popular program this year. “They started having conversations, and some

of the kids started joking around with the people getting food. There was a barrier to them, to interact with people who had high needs, and that barrier was broken down, and it became extremely comfortable.”

Now in its sixth year, the Summer of Service is designed to do just that: Give young people a chance to learn about Please see SERVICE, page 4A

About this story Micki Chestnut is communications director for the United Way of Douglas County, which provides occasional features spotlighting local volunteers and charities supported by the United Way.

When Mark Maxey recently accepted an Emmy Award, he marked a milestone in his media production career, the seeds of which were planted in Lawrence decades earlier.

As a boy growing up across the street from the Centron film studio on Ninth Street, it wasn’t long before Maxey went from riding his bike around its parking lot to being in front of its cameras. Like many in Lawrence during Centron’s era of film production, Maxey played small roles or was an extra. But it was the work behind the scenes that interested him, and it was growing up in Lawrence where he got the first glimpse behind the curtain.

“It was a neat early exposure, when we were just in grade school, to the magic of filmmaking and storytelling and how that all came together,” Maxey said of being able to see how footage was edited.

Fast-forward several decades to the present day, where on June 27 Maxey received an Emmy Award for excellence in television production. Maxey said he was surprised and grateful for the honor.

Longtime doctor, weather prognosticator passes after 60 years of care

By Shawn F. Linenberger Twitter: @LJWorld

Journal-World File Photo

Dr. Philip L. Stevens, aka Tonganoxie Phil, poses with a stuffed groundhog in February 2014, when he predicted an early spring. Stevens, 87, died Thursday.

Tonganoxie — Notable Dr. Philip L. Stevens, who made a name for himself predicting the weather and just last Wednesday marked 60 years of service, died in his sleep Thursday, a day later, family members said. He was 87.

The family physician and local icon delivered babies early in his career while also serving as a family physician all those years.

The past several years, he also was known as Tonganoxie Phil, Kansas’ answer to national weather predictor Punxsutawney Phil. A local radio station would contact Stevens for his weather predictions each February. The Tonganoxie Mirror and the Journal-World continued the tradition after the radio station discontinued the annual report.

Stevens served his patients out of the

Walking in, one could see what it might have looked like six decades earlier, as much of the furniture remain unchanged. He started his practice on July 1, 1955, in the office at 605 E. Fourth St. A 1945 graduate of Oskaloosa High School, Stevens worked on the press at the Oskaloosa Independent newspaper during his high school days.

the needs in Douglas County and discover how they can play a key part in transforming our community through service. Now through the end of July, the students will take part in service learning projects at 13 different nonprofit organizations like the Willow Domestic Violence Center, Operation Wildlife and Theatre Lawrence, and serve as volunteer interns for the Lawrence Humane Society and LINK. Together, they will contribute an estimated 1,600 volunteer hours.

“Exposing young persons to the very real nature of ground-level social services is crucial to developing a healthy community,” shared Kyle Roggenkamp, director of human services at Penn House, where the students also organized donated school supplies for low-income children and sorted clothing and household donations.

“Exposure to the reality of poverty is a powerful way to develop empathy in our community, passion in those who have an opportunity to help,” he explained.

He then was off to Kansas University, where he earned his bachelor’s in 1950 and medical degree in 1954. He also served a year in the Army while in college.

Former Tonganoxie physician Bill Howland asked Stevens whether he wanted to buy his practice, and Stevens jumped at the chance.

“I probably thought about it for two minutes,” Stevens recently told the Tonganoxie Mirror.

He also had plans of making Tonganoxie his family’s home for years to come.

“I intended to stay here for life,” Stevens said. “When we moved into our house 60 years ago, I told Betty, ‘I hope you like this place, because I’m never going to move,’” Stevens said with a chuckle, recalling a conversation he had with his wife. “Honest to God.” Stevens delivered several babies in his first years in the practice. Many still live in the area, such as Connie Torneden, who proudly notes she was on Stevens’ “wall of fame” of composite baby photos.

Stevens delivered babies for eight-plus years, but eventually had to quit because it had become too much delivering at night and then working all day in the office.

For the first 18 years of Stevens’ career, all of his patients were walk-in customers.

“The Emmy is a nice acknowledgement that we’re doing something right,” he said.

DILLON ROWLAND, 16, of Lawrence, cleans up cages while volunteering during his Summer of Service at the Lawrence Humane Society, 1805 E. 19th St. That’s the impact volunteering for the mobile food pantry had on Jonathan Lesslie, one of the Summer of Service volunteers. As a Lifetime Boy Scout, this Free State High School junior has volunteered a lot. But he was surprised by the number of people who needed emergency food assistance from Penn House and was happy he could hand them bags filled with fresh foods like cabbage, peppers and apples.

“It’s been pretty fun, actually,” Lesslie said.

“It’s nice to give back to the community.”

Izabella Fletcher, a

freshman at Free State High School, is participating in Summer of Service for her second year because she had such a good experience last year. “I have a lot of free time in the summer to help the community,” she explained. Volunteering for the mobile food pantry made a big impression on her, she said. “People were almost crying with enthusiasm over getting apples,” she shared. “A lot of families can’t afford a bag of apples. A lot of us take apples for granted!”

In addition to serving, Fletcher said she’s enjoyed building friend-

ships with the other youths in the program.

“It has made me better at talking to people,” she said.

“Volunteer support is the lifeblood of Penn House,” Roggenkamp said. “Summer of Service youth played a vital role in our school kits and mobile food pantry programs. We were short volunteers for our mobile food pantry this month, so not only were they able to learn about food insecurity in Douglas County, they also added to our ability to even run the program for the month of June.”

includes the Lawrence Community Theatre, the Seem To Be Players, the Lawrence Arts Center, and music and theater performances at KU. “I think all of that probably contributed to a love of the visual arts and of storytelling and filmmaking,” he said.

Maxey got involved with the Lawrence Community Theatre as a teenager and continued production work at LCT for a few years after he graduated from Lawrence High School in 1987, working mostly in lighting design, he said.

“I was always the behind-the-scenes guy,” Maxey said.

Maxey moved to Washington, D.C., in 1990 to join a television production company. Maxey, now executive vice president of Yorktel Media Services division, is co-founder and producer of the Washington West Film Festival and producer of the White House Student Film Festival.

Maxey also produces the annual Veterans Day television specials “The Wounded Warrior Experience” and “American Veterans Center Hon-

ors,” the latter of which won Maxey and his coproducer the Emmy.

“We do a lot of work on a lot of different programs, but to have this one in particular be recognized is especially nice just because these are people whose stories deserve to be told,” he said.

With so many years of service in Tonganoxie, Stevens got to know many people — and several generations of patients.

“I just feel real close to a lot of people,” he said.

“And of course they do to me, too.”

Stevens and his wife, Betty, saw many changes in the community through the years.

Their home was built nearly a century ago as a farmhouse. Tonganoxie has grown, and now the home is part of a neighborhood that’s been established for some time.

The couple had six children who grew up in Tonganoxie and now are in various locations.

Philip D. is a physician who splits time between Hays and a spot in New Mexico, while Charles lives in Norway and works as a counselor. Matt is a real estate broker in Kansas City, Mo., while daughter Lisa Scheller is an editor and photographer at the Kansas University Endowment Association. Another son, Dan, is a registered nurse who lives in Tonganoxie. And Loralee, the youngest, is an assistant dean at Johnson County Community College.

Days before his death, Stevens told the Tonganoxie Mirror he loved what he did and planned to keep doctoring as long as his health allowed.

“Well, I would like to never retire,” he said.

Thursday morning, his wish came true.

Lawrence rental prices up 13.4 percent in past year Town Talk B Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

uy stock in Ramen noodles.

(And, trust me, wash the dish when you're done.)

If this new report is accurate, some renters in Lawrence may need to make the cheapo food source a bigger part of their diets.

The real estate website Zillow has released its May real estate report, and it says median rent prices in Lawrence have

increased by 13.4 percent over the last year. One caveat: Zillow only seeks to calculate the average rent rates for homes that are rented, not apartment units. But still, a 13.4 percent increase in rents is significant. I took a look at some other communities, and Lawrence is far outpacing most.

Zillow is a little hit or miss in the communities it monitors, so I’m using a little bit different list

than I normally would. But I’ve tried to find some college communities for comparison’s sake.

Here’s a look: l Kansas City: up 10.2 percent l Topeka: up 2.4 percent l Columbia, Mo.: up 1.2 percent l Iowa City, Iowa: up 0.9 percent l Bloomington, Ind.: up 2.2 percent

l Fayetteville, Ark.: up 7.1 percent l Fort Collins, Colo.: up 10.8 percent.

In case you are wondering, Zillow says the median rental rate for a home — not an apartment — is $1,324 per month.

Street strategy Reducing motor vehicle traffic lanes to promote good health is a questionable strategy.

L

ocal advocates of healthy lifestyles and streets that encourage pedestrian and bicycle usage and safety have come to the defense of new traffic strategies such as the one being considered for Kasold Drive between Seventh and 14th streets.

Planners are looking at reducing this stretch of the four-lane Kasold to two lanes and adding new bike lanes and an expanded multi-use path. Advocates assign many attributes to the plan. Reducing the lanes would actually ease traffic flow, they say, and adding a roundabout at Kasold and Harvard Road would slow traffic, making it safe for bicycles and motor vehicles to share the single lane of traffic around the circle. The overall goal is to encourage more people to travel to various destinations on foot or on a bicycle rather than in a car or truck — a step that would increase their physical health and well-being.

It’s an interesting theory, but it’s also a significant financial gamble for the city. What happens if the city pursues the new idea of narrower streets on Kasold and at other locations and then finds that pedestrian, bicycle and motor traffic doesn’t evolve in the way some advocates are hoping for?

Creating incentives for more people to walk and bike to their destinations is laudable, but perhaps not all that practical. For better or worse, our community hasn’t been designed in a way that encourages that trend. Where are the people who live on or near that stretch of Kasold going to walk or bike to? Some smaller commercial centers are located at Sixth Street and Bob Billings Parkway, but it’s some distance to the nearest grocery store.

Advocates harken back to a time when more children walked or biked to school, but that was when schools served smaller neighborhoods. Other factors, such as personal safety concerns or after-school activities, also enter into a parent’s decision whether to let a child walk or bike to school.

Then there’s Kansas weather, which isn’t always conducive to cycling and walking. Bike lanes and additional sidewalks might increase recreational uses of that stretch of Kasold but they seem unlikely to trigger significant reductions in motor vehicle traffic because more people are biking and walking to school, shopping and other everyday destinations.

Many motorists also continue to have safety concerns about roundabouts.

Motorists are trainable, but they aren’t used to yielding the only traffic lane around a roundabout to a bicyclist, and many people still question whether pedestrians are safer crossing a street at a roundabout where traffic doesn’t routinely stop or at an intersection controlled by traffic signals or stop signs.

Increasing physical activity and decreasing our dependence on motor vehicles are great ideas, but narrowing city streets may not be the best way to promote that goal.

Response as bad as Trump’s diatribe What’s most worrisome about Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s xenophobic remarks about Mexicans is not that he actually made them, but the fact that they seem to have helped him among Republican voters nationwide.

What’s more, the business tycoon’s tirade against Mexico and Mexicans was celebrated by some of his fellow Republican hopefuls, and have yet to be officially denounced as offensive — if not outright racist — by the Republican National Committee.

Obviously, part of the U.S. population is still willing to believe the blatant falsehoods and half-truths uttered by Trump and other politicians who, like populist demagogues in other countries, seek popularity by blaming foreigners for their countries’ economic problems.

According to a Pew Research Center poll, only 39 percent of Americans expressed a favorable view of Mexico in 2013, down from 47 percent before the U.S. financial crisis of 2008. The U.S. economic downturn may have had a lot to do with this downward trend.

In a June 16 speech announcing his candidacy to the Republican nomination, Trump lashed out against Mexico for allegedly flooding the United States with undesirable immigrants.

He said Mexico is sending to the United States “people that have lots of problems, and they are bringing those problems to us. They are bringing drugs, and bringing crime,

Andres Oppenheimer aoppenheimer@miamiherald.com

“

Trump may be a clown, or an unscrupulous politician seeking headlines, but there is no excuse for most of his fellow Republican hopefuls’ silence …” and they’re rapists.” He also said he would force Mexico to pay for a wall across the border. Following his remarks, Univision, NBC and Mexico’s Televisa networks severed their ties with Trump-related Miss USA pageants and other TV shows.

Problem is, Trump’s entire tirade is based on the false premises.

First, portraying Mexican immigrants as criminals is an insult to 34 million American residents of Mexican origin, the overwhelming majority of whom are honest and hard-working people.

Second, implying that Mexican immigrants are flooding the United States is plainly wrong. In fact, the flow of Mexican immigrants to the United States has plummeted over the past four decades,

falling from about 400,000 per year a decade ago to 125,000 nowadays, according to recent figures from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.

Immigration from Mexico has fallen because of the 2008 U.S. financial crisis, lower birth rates in Mexico — where the fertility rate has fallen from about 5.5 children per woman in the 1970s to 2.5 children today — and increased border security measures.

Third, the claim that a wall alongside the entire U.S.-Mexico border would stem the flow of Mexicans is, at best, doubtful: Nearly half of Mexican undocumented immigrants are not crossing the border, but arrive by plane and overstay their visas. A wall would be a huge waste of money, regardless of who pays for it.

Yet, after his misleading statements, Trump rose to No. 2 — behind Bush — among more than a dozen candidates in a new CNN poll nationwide. He was already No. 2 in a previous CNN/WMUR poll in New Hampshire, the first state to hold the upcoming primary elections in February.

Andrew Smith, a University of New Hampshire professor who conducted the New Hampshire poll, told me that immigration is not a big issue in that state, where only 3.2 percent of the population is Hispanic.

“By taking an outsider stance, he attracted attention and press,” Smith said.

“It made him look like he’s somebody who is not afraid

to say things that are in the minds of voters, but that many are hesitant to say.”

What was the reaction of Trump’s fellow Republican hopefuls? Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, openly supported Trump’s remarks, saying that “I think he speaks the truth.”

Most others remained neutral.

Only Jeb Bush, who is married to a Mexican woman, reportedly said at a Saturday event in Nevada that he didn’t agree with Trump’s words, and that they did not represent his values, a Bush campaign aide was quoted as saying by The Washington Examiner.

Republican National Committe Chairman Reince Priebus told a news conference on June 26, 10 days after Trump made his remarks, that the aspiring candidate’s statements were “not helpful.” Hardly a stinging condemnation of what many see as offensive remarks against millions of law-abiding Mexican immigrants.

My opinion: Trump may be a clown, or an unscrupulous politician seeking headlines, but there is no excuse for most of his fellow Republican hopefuls’ silence and, more importantly, for the Republican National Committee not coming out with a formal and unequivocal statement condemning Trump’s insults against the largest U.S. minority group. That’s what’s really troubling about this entire charade!

Racial identity is complicated issue Rachel Dolezal did us a favor. Her black-white switcheroo upset conventional mindsets about racial stereotypes, identity politics, cultural relativism and the nature of the individual.

Dolezal tried to play the race card both ways, suing for discrimination because she was white, presenting herself as black to gain promotion at the NAACP. Her argument was that race doesn’t constitute identity; identity is subjective. In other words, “black” and “white” are in the eyes of the beholder.

Of course, this was unacceptable to African-Americans, who don’t think the realities of racism should be hijacked for crass, opportunistic purposes. Being black is not a matter of choice and mere style, they say. “I wonder what race Rachel would become if she got stopped by the police,” one writer mused.

Dolezal’s metamorphosis caught commentators offguard. Was it a pathetic, insignificant masquerade or a heinous insult to black experience of oppression? Race is such a sensitive, explosive issue, that anyone who ventures an opinion is certain to

George Gurley

“

There may be no scientific basis for racial differences, but we persist in assigning them — from ‘white supremacy’ to ‘black is beautiful.’”

offend or outrage someone.

So they tiptoed around the subject of her black impersonation. One writer concluded that since Dolezal didn’t hurt anyone but herself, she should be left alone to deal with her humiliation.

Comedian Dave Chappelle said he wouldn’t be cracking jokes about Dolezal.

“There’s an emotional context for black people when they see her and white people when they see her,” he said, whatever that meant.

Actually, the Dolezal story

isn’t that unusual. The subject of race always provokes paradoxes, double talk and a kind of intellectual miscegenation. William Styron was attacked by black writers for his Pulitzer-Prize winning novel, “The Confessions of Nat Turner.” They accused him of “cultural appropriation” and trespassing on their turf. Only an African-American could understand and tell the story of the man who led a slave revolt in 1831, they said. Norman Mailer’s essay, “The White Negro,” presented another perspective — the phenomenon of white hipsters who rejected the dominant culture’s conformity, idealized black culture and adopted it as their own. Philip Roth offered another wrinkle in “The Human Stain,” where a black college professor who passes for white gets in trouble with the PC police for using a racial epithet.

The Dolezal episode seems commonplace in the company of other racial perversions. Obsession with race gave rise to a caste system classifying people as “quadroons,” “octoroons,” “mulattoes.” “griffes.” In “The Commitments,” pale-

faced members of an Irish rock band seeking soul credentials proclaim, “I’m black and I’m proud.” Today, some find cause for contention in the nuances of “Black lives matter” versus “All lives matter.” One writer criticized whites who presume to speak for blacks as “racist anti-racists.”

The most interesting aspect of the Dolezal case is the friction between group identity and individual identity. Identity politics may be a way minorities can win power, but it subordinates the individual to the group. There may be no scientific basis for racial differences, but we persist in assigning them — from “white supremacy” to “black is beautiful.” In a sense, Rachel Dolezal was doing what everyone does: trying to construct a persona that will permit survival and promote success. “Know thyself,” said Socrates. Easier said than done, since the self is a work in progress, ever-changing, contradictory, imperfectly known even by its creator, the enigmatic, evasive “I.” — George Gurley, a resident of rural Baldwin City, writes a regular column for the Journal-World.

Choosing the right product for the job is the first step in creating a visually appealing, structurally sound face-lift for any horizontal wood, composite or concrete surface.

Step 1: Polymer paints are designed for horizontal surfaces and come in a wide range of colors.

Look for a product that states it will fill up to 1/4inch crevices and lock down splitters. One gallon should be enough to cover 75 square feet with the required two coats of product. Cabot Deck Correct and Rustoleum Deck Restore are two of the many products out

Step 5: Shake and stir the product thoroughly.

Work in small sections at a time to ensure a smooth and even application.

Read the manufacturer’s instructions entirely before proceeding.

Step 6: Use a thick natural bristle brush to apply the product to cracks and crevices.

Step 7: Use a 3/8-inch nap roller to spread the first coat of product over each section. Work in long continuous strokes to create a smooth and even application.

David Sweat, one of two killers who eluded capture for three weeks after escaping a maximum security prison in New York last month, was released from a hospital Sunday and returned to prison, authorities said.

Sweat, 35, was released from Albany Medical Center and sent to Five Points Correctional Facility in Romulus, the state Corrections Department said in a statement.

Sweat, who will be placed on suicide watch, fled the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, N.Y., on June 6. He and fellow escapee Richard Matt slipped into the deep forests of northern New York, occasionally breaking into cabins and eluding an intense manhunt by more than 1,000 officers.

The run for freedom ended about 40 miles from the prison and about two miles from the Canadian border. Matt, 49, was fatally shot by U.S. Border Patrol officers June 26. Sweat was shot, critically wounded and captured

by New York state troopers two days later.

The department declined to

Escapee from New York prison will be placed on suicide watch at different facility

reveal details about Sweat’s stealthy transit to Five Points before dawn Sunday. Sweat will remain in the prison infirmary for 24 hours of medical evaluation, the department said.

After his discharge from the infirmary, Sweat will be housed alone in a cell at the Five Points Special Housing Unit within the facility’s 150-bed, 23-hour confinement unit. He will have a bed, writing table, toilet, sink and a facility-controlled shower that the department said will limit movement.

Built in 2000, Five Points houses 1,294 inmates and has 669 employees, including 511 security staff, the department said. It is one of New York’s 15 maximum security prisons and located more than 250 miles from Clinton.

The escape was the first from Clinton in its 170-year history.

Sweat, who claims to be the mastermind, told investigators the effort was so precise he and Matt pulled off a trial escape the night before they left.

Days after Sweat’s capture, the prison superintendent, two highlevel administrators and nine security officials were placed on administrative leave.

The superintendent was replaced a day later.

ATHENS Greece on Sunday delivered a resounding “no” to international creditors’ stringent lending terms, a historic vote that jeopardizes European economic unity and casts the nation of 11 million into an uncertain financial future.

After most of the votes were counted, official results from Greece’s Interior Ministry projected that 61% of voters rejected the terms. The rejection was a far larger repudiation of the lenders’ austerity demands than recent polls had predicted.

As night fell in Athens, thousands of “no” supporters flooded Syntagma Square in front of Greece’s Parliament, waving flags and banners. “No more blackmail,” said supermarket worker Vasilis Rigatos, 45, a “no” voter.

Greek Prime Minister Alex Tsipras said the “no” vote was not a vote for Greece to leave the eurozone, and he wanted negotiations to resume straightaway. “(The vote) is not a mandate against Europe,” he said.

Greece’s left-wing government urged a “no” vote, saying the new tax hikes and benefit cuts demanded by the International Monetary Fund, European Central Bank and European Commission were too onerous for a nation that has suffered a severe five-year depression, the worst slump of any European nation.

Tsipras, whose government was elected this year on a pledge to reject more austerity, called for the referendum in hopes it would persuade the creditors to ease their terms. If they stand firm, Greece may be forced to leave the eurozone and replace the euro with its greatly devalued former currency, the drachma. Such an unprecedented move in the history of the eurozone would make Greek exports cheaper but boost the cost of imports and leave the government without funds to pay for everything from basic services to retiree pensions.

Greece’s left-wing government urged a “no” vote, saying the conditions were too onerous for a nation that has suffered a severe five-year depression.

Progress made in nuclear talks with Iran, Kerry says But differences over key issues remain Oren Dorell USA TODAY

Nuclear negotiations with Iran have made progress over the past few days, yet differences remain on important issues, Secretary of State John Kerry said Sunday in Vienna after meeting with his Iranian counterpart, Javad Zarif.

Foreign ministers from other world powers involved in the talks returned to Vienna on Sunday to seek a deal by Tuesday,

Kerry said.

The United Nations’ chief weapons inspector, Yukia Amano, was to arrive in Tehran on Sunday for further discussions regarding Tehran’s nuclear research, Iran’s Fars News Agency reported. Amano, who heads the International Atomic Energy Agency, spent several days in Iran last week and announced Saturday that he could complete his investigation by the end of 2015.

Iran’s unwillingness to address questions about suspected nuclear weapons research is one of the roadblocks to a deal. Others involve the schedule for lifting international sanctions after Iran

“We are not yet where we need to be on several of the most difficult issues.”

Secretary of State John Kerry

JOE KLAMAR, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

Secretary of State John Kerry says talks could still “go either way.”

agrees to curb its nuclear program and access Iran would provide Amano’s agency to civilian and military sites where nuclear activities are suspected.

In a video Friday on YouTube,

Zarif said the sides “have never been closer” to an agreement.

Kerry said that’s true, but “at this point, this negotiation could go either way.”

“Over the past few days, we have in fact made genuine progress,” Kerry said. “But I want to be absolutely clear with every-

body: We are not yet where we need to be on several of the most difficult issues.” Any deal will be analyzed by experts, “and none of us are going to be content to do something that can’t pass scrutiny,” Kerry said.

The Obama administration seeks a deal that ensures Iran uses its nuclear facilities only for peaceful purposes, as Iran says is its goal, and any effort to develop weapons would be detected early

by U.N. monitors. In exchange for curbs on its nuclear program, Iran wants economic sanctions lifted immediately. The U.S. favors a gradual lifting to ensure Iran complies with the deal.

VOICES

More than affirmative action needed Rick Jervis USA TODAY

AUSTIN It’s been a busy season for the Supreme Court, with recent decisions sparking celebrations among the underinsured and rainbow-themed parties.

Receiving less fanfare was a decision last Monday by the court to rehear a Texas-based case on affirmative action.

The justices heard the case, Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, two years ago, ruling that universities may use race as a factor in admissions to achieve a diverse student body but should employ other “workable, raceneutral alternatives,” if they are available. The case was kicked down to the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, which sided with UT-Austin and allowed the university to continue its affirmative action policy.

The fact that the Supreme Court is now rehearing the case is a sign that this issue could be more narrowly interpreted.

That’s potentially good news for people like Abigail Fisher, the plaintiff, who was denied admission to the university in 2008, despite having a 3.6 grade-

point average and scoring 1180 on the SAT. Fisher, who is white, claims she was passed over for minority students with lesser academic credentials. Fisher went on to graduate from Louisiana State University in 2012 but is continuing the case on principle.

Using race in university admissions is unconstitutional and demeans minority students who have worked hard to try to get into the institutions, says Edward Blum, president of the Project on Fair Representation, which is providing Fisher’s legal counsel. Lowering the bar for some people inevitably means raising it for others, he says.

“It’s polarizing and demeaning and it serves no purpose,”

Blum told me. A fairer approach, he says, is to set aside slots for students from financially disadvantaged families — of all races, including white.

Others agree with him. At least eight states have passed laws restricting affirmative action since 1996, according to the Pew Research Center.

Meanwhile, a growing number of Hispanics are enrolling in colleges. From 1996 to 2012, college enrollment among Hispanics ages 18 to 24 more than tripled (a 240% increase), outpacing increases among blacks (72%) and whites (12%), according to Pew. All this seems to suggest less affirmative action is needed. But although Latinos

are getting into college at impressive rates, an astonishingly low percentage are obtaining four-year degrees: Hispanic students account for just 9% of young adults (ages 25 to 29) with a bachelor’s degree, compared with 69% for white students.

Two decades ago, I was one of those Latino students who found himself thrust onto a four-year university campus — the first of my immediate family to do so. I’m first-generation Cuban-American. My English was fine by the time I got to the University of Florida, but there were days I still felt my cultural upbringing and background were oceans removed from my Anglo

classmates. I nearly quit several times. Affirmation action didn’t help get me into UF, but I did secure minority scholarships and benefited from internship-placement programs that helped propel my career.

“Affirmative action can help in raising some of these numbers by opening doors at top-tier institutions,” says Mark Hugo Lopez, director of Hispanic Research at Pew. Lopez, 48, enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley in the 1980s and excelled. But when it came time to consider a graduate degree, no one from his family could offer usable advice.

Lopez pursued a doctorate in economics at Princeton and now heads one of the more influential research wings at Pew. But it was a summer program at UC Berkeley for minority students that helped him map out his path. “If I hadn’t had that experience, I wouldn’t even consider applying to a top-notch school,” he said.

As justices and scholars debate affirmative action, higher ed leaders should seriously ponder not just how to get more minority students on their campuses — but how to keep them there.

GREECE’S FINANCIAL CRISIS

Path ahead unclear after vote v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Millions of Greeks voted Sunday in the tightly contested referendum, and the outcome of the vote could have far-reaching, but also unclear, consequences for markets and economies around the world.

Japan’s Nikkei index opened down more than 300 points on Monday.

The euro was forecast to start trading about 1% lower against the dollar.

Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis said he would work with Greece’s creditors to find common ground and cut a deal as soon as possible. Whether his negotiating counterparts are willing to take up that conciliatory offer is not clear.

What’s clear is that the outcome complicates matters.

“If, after the referendum, the majority is a ‘no,’ they will have to introduce another currency because the euro will no longer be available for a means of payment,” Martin Schulz, European Parliament president, said on German radio.

Greece’s conservative opposition leader Antonis Samaras resigned after the vote.

“No one can ignore the message of determination of a people taking its destiny in its own hands,” Tsipras said after casting his vote. “Today, democracy conquers fear.”

At a polling station in central Athens, a throng of “no” voters cheered when Tspiras cast his ballot.

In the western Greek city of Patras, housewife Anna Roussou, 45, said she voted “yes” to the austerity terms for getting new loans. “I have three children, I cannot take the risk” of voting against the bailout terms, she said. “Banks are closed. I cannot feed them. Revolution is great, but only when you have the right weapons and friends.”

Hjelmgaard reported from London and Skoulis from Patras

People celebrate in front of the Greek Parliament in Athens on Sunday as the “no” campaign appeared headed for victory.

Greeks who voted ‘no’ celebrate historic win Optimism abounds in vetoing bailout terms Nikolia Apostolou Special for USA TODAY

ATHENS The votes were still being counted. The margin of victory from early polls was thin.

That didn’t stop tens of thousands of Greek “no” supporters from gathering at Syntagma Square near Parliament on Sunday night to cheer Greece’s apparent defeat of international creditors’ stringent financial bailout plan.

They sang, chanted “no,” whistled, performed traditional dances and waved flags in anticipation of victory that seemed assured.

“It is a much better day. I am optimistic,” declared Vasilis Rigatos, 45, a supermarket employee who turned out at the square.

“The prime minister has promised we are going to have an agreement with EU members in

48 hours. I am expecting it in no less than two weeks. I believe (Prime Minister Alex) Tsipras is stronger now. OK, we have a problem with our banks, but Greeks are survivors.”

More than 75% of the vote was counted four hours after polls closed at 7 p.m. (noon ET).

In the fiercely contested referendum on whether to accept the bailout terms, the “no” camp maintained a steady lead with about 60% of the vote, according to an official projection from the Interior Ministry.

Final results were unlikely until after midnight, but revelers said they sensed victory.

“For me, voting ‘no’ means freedom. And with the vote we gave the captain (the prime minister) the way to govern the ship,” said Yannis Kovesis, 23, who works in a warehouse and showed up sporting a Greek flag.

“We have been very disappointed with the previous politicians. It was important for Greece to vote ‘no’ because for

the past five years, we’ve been saying ‘yes,’ and as a result, we had thousands of people committing suicide, many unemployed, very ugly things in Greece, and now we’re saying ‘no’ because we want something different.”

His brother, Kostas Kovesis, 21, said: “We want a Greece that’s free. What I’m interested in is not if things get better or worse.

What I’m interested in is that Greece is free, without the European-imposed austerity.”

He did not address the uncertainty Greece might face if the creditors refuse to relax their terms for renewed lending.

Those who voted for the bailout package had nothing to cheer about Sunday.

“I am very anxious,” said Eleni Koutroumpa, 36, an accountant in Patras in western Greece. “Our government plans to leave the euro and return to a drachma. This is a great danger for our nation.”

NATION/WORLD

Republicans hit Trump over Mexico comments Candidates: Remarks ‘not reflective’ of GOP David Jackson USA TODAY

As Donald Trump climbs in some polls, other Republican presidential candidates are criticizing the businessman over his comments that too many migrants from Mexico are rapists, drug dealers and criminals.

“I’ve said very clearly that Donald Trump does not represent the Republican Party,” Rick Perry said Sunday on ABC’s This Week.

“I was offended by his remarks.

Listen, Hispanics in America and Hispanics in Texas, from the Alamo to Afghanistan, have been extraordinary people, citizens of our country and of our state.”

Mike Huckabee said on CNN’s State of the Union that Trump “made a severe error in saying what he did about MexicanAmericans, and it is unfortunate.”

While stumping Saturday in New Hampshire, Jeb Bush said that everybody wants to protect the borders, “but to make these extraordinarily ugly kind of comments is not reflective of the Re-

publican Party. Trump is wrong on this.”

Responding to Bush, Trump said his focus is on illegal immigration and that “Jeb is mischaracterizing my statements only to inflame” people against him. “I believe in securing our border by building a wall, which will protect our safety, economy and national security,” Trump said.

At his campaign announcement last month, Trump said Mexico is not sending “their best” people into the U.S.: “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

In an interview that aired on

“They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime.

They’re rapists.

And some … are good people.”

Donald Trump on Mexican immigrants

Fox News Channel’s MediaBuzz Sunday, Trump stood by his controversial comments: “I can’t apologize for the truth.”

Since his announcement, Trump has finished second to Bush in a number of early polls.

Business groups have cut ties

with Trump over the comments, and his Republican opponents are pouncing.

“Trump’s comments are not just offensive and inaccurate, but also divisive,” Marco Rubio said over the holiday weekend.

Others demurred on Trump.

Rick Santorum said on CBS’ Face The Nation he doesn’t agree with Trump’s “verbiage,” but Trump is raising legitimate questions about illegal immigration.

Ted Cruz, in an interview on NBC’s Meet The Press, said Trump is “bold” and “brash,” and that the Washington media is only interested in seeing Republican candidates attack each other.

BUSH FACES FAMILY HISTORY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE Name ‘an issue’ in key state, but not insurmountable David Jackson USA TODAY

AMHERST, N. H .

The New Hampshire primary has been both heaven and hell for the Bushes.

Now, Jeb Bush is in political purgatory, Granite State-style.

The successes and failures of his father and brother hang over the former Florida governor as he faces what might be a must win in February’s New Hampshire primary — and voters who lined a July Fourth parade route this weekend in Amherst had plenty of advice for the latest Bush presidential candidate.

“Change his name?” joked Donni Hodgkins as she helped prepare a float sponsored by the Souhegan Valley Republican Women.

“I hate to say that,” added Hodgkins, who is staying neutral in the Republican race. “But I think that is the biggest hindrance for him. A lot of people don’t want a dynasty.”

Bush heard a few catcalls as he greeted residents along the noisy parade route — “no more Bushes!” shouted one critic — but others had no problem with the idea of a third Bush in the White House.

Micah Dyson, an Atlanta-area resident visiting family members in New Hampshire, attracted the attention of the candidate with a T-shirt reading, “Bush Hat Trick.”

The family name is probably “an issue,” Dyson said, but not an insurmountable one: “He’s got to represent himself. He’s got to make sure he’s his own man.”

Jeb Bush has long said he is different from his father and his

KAYANA SZYMCZAK, GETTY IMAGES

brother and that he plans to make his case with traditional New Hampshirestyle retail politics: voter by voter.

People in New Hampshire literally tell you “ ‘nice first meeting — after we meet four or five more times, you know, I’ll consider supporting you,’ ” Bush told reporters after marching in holiday parades in Amherst and Merrimack.

“I intend to be here regularly,” Bush said.

The Bush family, which has roots in New England, has been part of New Hampshire’s political landscape for decades now.

The state ruined one Bush candidacy and nearly ruined another.

It also launched the family patriarch, George H.W. Bush, toward the White House in 1988.

“It’s a mixed bag,” said Dante Scala, a political scientist with the University of New Hampshire.

Back in 1980, George H.W. Bush launched his presidential campaign career with an upset win in Iowa, defeating favorite Ronald Reagan. The elder Bush roared into New Hampshire with what he called “Big Mo,” only to get blown out by a re-energized Reagan.

Bush, then Reagan’s vice president, returned to the New Hampshire primary eight years later, this time coming off a third-place finish in Iowa. A win over Bob

Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush greets supporters in Amherst, N.H.

ROBERT DEUTSCH, USA TODAY

George H.W. Bush's victory in the 1988 New Hampshire primary was key to his winning the Republican nomination that year and, ultimately, the presidency.

“ ‘Nice first meeting — after we meet four or five more times, you know, I’ll consider supporting you.’ ” Candidate Jeb Bush on what New Hampshire residents tell him

Dole rebooted his campaign, and he went on to claim the White House.

His eldest son, George W. Bush, hit the streets of New Hampshire in 2000 but lost big to

maverick Republican John McCain. The second Bush needed a win in South Carolina to steady his campaign.

Looking to Jeb Bush’s bid in New Hampshire, some analysts said he might benefit more from his father’s example, emphasizing economic issues and bidding for independent voters who are eligible to vote in the Republican primary.

Though the senior Bush had called Texas home for decades, many New Hampshire residents saw him as a fellow Northeasterner. After all, he grew up in Connecticut and had a home in Kennebunkport, Maine.

George W. Bush owned a ranch near Crawford, Texas. New Hampshire voters tended to see him as pure Texan, and his social conservatism did not play as well in a state where economic issues often hold more sway.

One way or another, New Hampshire is likely to be pivotal for Jeb Bush’s presidential bid.

The Iowa caucuses begin the Republican nomination contest, but a neighboring governor — Scott Walker of Wisconsin — is considered the favorite there.

New Hampshire’s primary follows Iowa, and Bush figures to be the best-funded candidate in the race. Scala said “the ramifications of a loss for him would be severe.”

Independent voters could be decisive in what figures to be a complex Republican race. Turnout in the Republican contest could depend on whether the Democrats have a close race.

David Paleologos, the director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center, said Bush’s campaign also needs to figure out the voting percentage they will need to win the New Hampshire primary — a relative small number, given the fact there could be as many as 16 major GOP candidates on the ballot.

“You’ve got to believe that the threshold for winning is some place in the 20s,” Paleologos said.

Longtime New Hampshire Republican operative Tom Rath, who supported both George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush and has not yet endorsed in this race, said doing well in New Hampshire is “sort of a ticket to admission to the rest of the campaign.”

Having participated in New Hampshire primaries since 1964, Rath agreed that a number in the high 20s could win for Bush or any of the other candidates.

“This is the most open race I’ve seen,” Rath said.

Said Ingrid Michaelis, an Amherst realtor who won’t decide who to support until late in the race: “I want to see all the candidates as they come through.”

IN BRIEF 2 KILLED, 3 MISSING AFTER JULY 4 BOAT CRASH

Two people died and three remained missing Sunday after a pontoon boat smashed into a bridge on the Ohio River near Louisville, authorities said.

Louisville Fire Chief Greg Frederick told USA TODAY that four people were rescued after the boat hit a work barge at a bridge construction site late Saturday, before the start of an Independence Day fireworks display.

Frederick said video shows the boat hitting the barge, then some of the passengers climbing aboard it to safety. He said hopes were dim for the missing. “The river conditions, with all the recent rains, are pretty hazardous and we could not put divers in the water to search,” Frederick said.

The four known survivors were

hospitalized in stable condition, he said. Two adults and one child were among the missing. Frederick said the capsized pontoon boat was towed back to shore.

Chris Poynter, spokesman for Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer, said about 20,000 people had gathered in boats and along the shore of the city’s Waterfront Park.

wed, although The Guardian said it would not reveal which two at the request of the girls’ families.

Tasnime Akunjee, a lawyer representing the families, said the families were grief-stricken.

“It has caused a lot of distress.

It entrenches their lives in Syria, rather than in Britain,” Akunjee told The Guardian.

The Guardian said the married girls were allowed to pick husbands from a group of candidates, believed to be in their 20s, provided by leadership of the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS. The girls had been good students before reading about ISIL online. During a term break in February, the three girls flew to Turkey, which has a border with Syria often used by people seeking to join the Islamic State. They were believed to have crossed into Syria within days.

Alamo, missions now heritage sites Greg Toppo USA TODAY

The Alamo and four Spanish colonial Catholic missions in Texas are being designated U.S. World Heritage sites by the United Nations, joining other key landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, Philadelphia’s Independence Hall, Yellowstone and Grand Canyon national parks and Monticello, Thomas Jefferson’s Virginia home, among more than 1,000 others worldwide.

The designations, announced Sunday, mark the first time a Texas site has been deemed of “outstanding cultural or natural importance to the common heritage of humanity” by UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

Elsewhere, Britain’s Stonehenge, India’s Taj Mahal, Cambodia’s Angkor Wat and the Great Barrier Reef are also on the list.

The decision caps a nineyear campaign by Texas and San Antonio to have the early 18th-century missions listed as cultural landmarks.

The company plans to boost production to 7,000 cars annually, a figure still below the demand.

EURO VOTE MAY FUEL WILD RIDE Stocks could tumble while bond prices rise, analysts say

CHRISTOPHER FURLONG, GETTY IMAGES

Paul Davidson USA TODAY

Financial markets are braced for more turbulence this week after Greek voters on Sunday resoundingly rejected the bailout terms demanded by Athens’ creditors, increasing the likelihood that the debt-wracked country will exit the euro.

“I think the equity market sells off” Monday, said Daniel Morris, global investment strategist for financial services firm TIAA-CREF. Sunday night, futures markets pointed to a slide on Wall Street Monday of close to 1.5% in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index.

Many analysts expected a closer contest and a victory by bailout supporters, he said, so “the vote was worse than people expected.”

That, Morris said, likely means Greece’s left-wing government will be emboldened and less willing to accept any harsh conditions put forth by its creditors — the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the European Commission.

Last Monday, after Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras announced the referendum, European stock markets fell about 4% and the S&P 500 in “I think the equity the U.S. dropped 2%.

David Joy, chief marmarket sells off” ket strategist for Monday. Many Ameriprise Finananalysts expected cial, said declines on Monday could be a closer contest bigger as fear and and a victory by uncertainty grip bailout markets, driving investments to safe assupporters, so sets such as U.S. “the vote was worse than people Treasuries.

That would push expected.” up bond prices, and drive down yields, Daniel Morris, global investment strategist for financial services firm not just in the U.S. TIAA-CREF but also in financially sound eurozone countries such as Germany. Morris estimates yields on U.S. Treasuries could fall as much as 15 basis points. Meanwhile, bond yields in struggling eurozone

countries such as Italy, Spain and Portugal will likely rise.

The prospect of a Greek exit from the euro ignites fears that those cash-strapped eurozone countries could follow. Analysts said that’s likely to further hobble the euro Monday and strengthen the dollar, potentially crimping the exports and earnings of U.S. multinationals that draw a big share of their revenue from the eurozone. Futures trading had the euro off 1% vs. the dollar Sunday night.

In the short term, the ECB should continue to provide emergency funding to Greek banks but it will probably not increase the cap, economist Iscaro Diego of IHS Global Insight predicts. That, he said, raises the odds that

People celebrate in front of the Greek parliament on Sunday as early opinion polls predict a win for the “no” campaign in the Greek austerity referendum.

Greek banks will run out of cash within days and not reopen as scheduled July 7.

Yet all three analysts expect Greece and its creditors to resume talks as Athens seeks fresh bailout money. Despite the turmoil, Morris said he believes a deal eventually will be reached that allows Greece to get some debt relief and stay in the euro. As a result, the expected drop in stocks this week “is essentially a buying opportunity,” he said.

Joy said he doesn’t think stocks will bounce back quickly, noting that talks could drag on for weeks or months. Still, he said he doesn’t believe the effect of the impasse on U.S. stocks or the dollar will be enough to keep the Federal Reserve from raising interest rates from near zero levels in September.

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras speaks to the news media after voting Sunday in the referendum in an Athens suburb. He had urged people to vote no.

For investors, Puerto Rico’s debt crisis casts a cautionary spotlight on bonds issued by distressed governments.

Long hailed for their “tripletax-free” status — exempt from federal, state and local income taxes — Puerto Rico bonds have fallen out of favor with investors amid the island’s economic crisis.

After Puerto Rico Gov. Alejandro Garcia Padilla said June 29 the commonwealth’s $72 billion in bond debt is “unpayable,” concerns about a default escalated.

Puerto Rico celebrated a small win two days later when bondholders reached a deal to avoid a default on a $415 million debt payment, but it’s only a temporary reprieve. Investors and the island must come to an agreement on the electric-utility Prepa’s debt restructuring by September.

For now, investments in Puer-

Long hailed for their “triple-tax-free” status — exempt from federal, state and local income taxes — Puerto Rico bonds have fallen out of favor. to Rico debt are safe. But if the island opts to conserve cash and stop paying debts, watch for a firestorm of lawsuits.

It’s a risky game to jump in now. Matt Fabian, managing director of Municipal Market Advisors, said Puerto Rico debt investors have been limited mostly to sophisticated hedge funds in recent years. And hedge funds are quick to sue governments that default on debt payments. One case in point: Hedge funds have sued Argentina over it in 2001.

Garcia Padilla has called for Congress to let the island’s governmental entities file for municipal bankruptcy, which is currently available only to ones in the 50 states.

Congress has yet to act, but if it changes the law to give Puerto Rico access to Chapter 9, bonds could be at risk. Insured bonds give bondholders some measure of safety because in the event of a default the insurers have agreed to make up the difference.

But most Puerto Rico bonds are uninsured, experts say, potentially exposing bondholders to significant cuts in interest payments should bankruptcy occur.

Even without bankruptcy, experts say it’s extremely unlikely that Puerto Rico can meet its obligations without reducing its overall debt load.

FDA OKs Theranos’ finger-stick blood testing Marco della Cava USA TODAY

In a ringing endorsement of its technology and a counter to its critics, Silicon Valley bio-tech company Theranos announced Thursday that its proprietary blood-testing system has received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration.

The FDA has granted approval to Theranos’ finger-stick method and, more specifically, for its testing of the herpes simplex 1 virus.

“In order to realize our vision of early detection, lab tests must meet the highest quality standards, standards that are comprehensively set by FDA,” Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes said in a statement.

“FDA review is a uniquely rigorous process we undertook voluntarily because we remain SAN FRANCISCO

deeply committed to ensuring that our systems and all of our laboratory developed tests are of the highest quality, and that patients and their physicians have access to the most accurate information about their health.”

Holmes, a Stanford dropout, founded Theranos in 2003. It operated in stealth for a decade while perfecting a method of running complex blood tests based not on vials of blood but rather a mere drop or two.

For the past year, the company has been operating dozens of labs in Walgreens Wellness Centers in Arizona, as well as another near its headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif. It aims to eventually roll into all of Walgreens’ 8,200 stores.

The long-stated mission of Holmes, 31, who is a billionaire on paper due to the company’s $9 billion valuation, is to empow-

Theranos’ Nanotainer, shown here full of blood, just got approval from the FDA. er patients to take control of their own health by providing inexpensive blood testing that — if interpreted by physicians in a timely manner — can catch diseases in their earliest stages.

Theranos’ HSV-1 test costs $9.07 and is one of 153 tests Theranos makes available for less than $10.

Bloodwork labs do not need FDA approval, but Theranos de-

cided to seek it in part to respond to critics who have blasted the company’s secrecy, including how it has not revealed any information about how its machines run sophisticated tests based on a significantly reduced amount of patient blood.

A few months ago, Stanford School of Medicine professor John Ioannidis accused the company in a Journal of the American Medical Association editorial of practicing “stealth research” and called for a more transparent company policy.

The FDA approval news is timely for Theranos. On Friday, a bill it co-sponsored in Arizona goes into effect, allowing patients in that state to order their own blood work while protecting doctors from lawsuits, as the responsibility for interpreting the results of the tests lie with patients.

all it Murphy’s Law, poor scheduling or just bad luck, but the shortest connecting times at some airports seem to require the longest race between gates.

A bulky carry-on, tight shoes and dawdlers in the walkways can make the trek seem even longer.

So USA TODAY set out to find the longest potential gate-to-gate walks passengers might have to make at U.S. airports, excluding segments where the only way to keep going is by train, shuttle, cart or bus.

Many airports have those measurements handy and are happy to share them. A hearty staffer at LAX actually joined me — and my measuring wheel — for a hike through the terminals. And most every airport that responded wants to reassure passengers that, in most cases, motorized carts, wheelchairs, moving walkways and other assistance is available for those dreading the distances.

Here is a round-up of longest walking distances you might encounter — by choice or by chance — between gates at some major U.S. airports.

It’s about a 1/2-mile walk from the south pier of Terminal E to the west pier of Terminal C at Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport, “but that would entail different types of flights and it would probably never happen that someone would need to do that walk,” said Bill Begley, IAH spokesman.

The longest walkable concourse at Denver International Airport is Concourse B, which is 3,300 feet long. Heading from there to other concourses requires hopping on a train.

At Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, a walk from the far end of the A Concourse, across the central terminal and out to the end of the D Concourse tallies to 3,885 feet, or about .7 miles.

The longest walk between gates at San Francisco International Airport would be from the end of Terminal 2 (Gate 55) to the end of the International Terminal (Gate 101).

“This walk would be 4,031 feet

TAKE A HIKE Airports with the longest walks between gates

Most every airport wants to reassure passengers that there are carts ... moving walkways and other assistance available.

(about .76 miles),” said SFO spokesman Doug Yakel. “But I should note that this route doesn’t have to be walked. There’s the AirTrain light rail system connecting the terminals and moving walkways along the way.”

It’s slightly more than 3/4 of a mile — 4,068 feet — between the farthest point of the A gates to the farthest points of the C gates at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas.

“That’s a worst-case scenario figure,” said McCarran spokesman Chris Jones, noting that few travelers would actually make that walk because LAS is not a major connecting airport. “Also, that path of travel between A to C

includes no less than four moving walkways that cover a sizable portion of that stretch, as well as a tram ride for another portion, if so inclined.”

At Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, a passenger could walk 5,536 feet (about 1.04 miles) from Concourse C in Terminal 1, through the 745-foot underground pedestrian tunnel, past all the gates in Concourse B and back out to the end of the L Concourse in Terminal 3 At Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, the furthest walkable distance between gates is in Terminal 1 and is approximately 5,700 feet, or about 1.08 miles.

Great customer service comes in many forms Travelers share stories of those who did the right thing Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Finding great customer service on the road isn’t as hard as it seems. Just pay attention to employees when no one else is looking.

What do the agents behind the counter do when you, their supervisors, and ahem, consumer advocates like me, aren’t watching?

Do they go the extra mile even when there’s nothing to be gained and without being asked? Or do they throw the book in your face?

It’s worth asking, now that the travel industry’s customer service report cards have been issued by the likes of the American Customer Service Index and JD Power.

The results were mixed. Some companies performed well, but many didn’t. If you fly often, I don’t have to tell you.

I receive lots of complaints from readers.

But the stories that impress me the most are the ones about companies that do the right thing with little or no prompting.

After a recent Viking river cruise, David and Veronica James arrived at the Prague airport to discover their flight home had been canceled. They tried to reschedule their flight, but couldn’t.

“Not knowing what else to do, we called the program director of our cruise on the cell number he provided and explained the situation to him,” they remember.

Even though their cruise had already ended, the director helped get them to the right flight, and in real time.

BUSINESS TRAVEL EVERY MONDAY

HOW TO PERSUADE A COMPANY TO DO THE RIGHT THING uInvoke its contract. Although they may not tell you about them, most travel companies have contracts that outline your rights. For example, your cruise line’s ticket contract outlines your rights.

Citing the contract is the fastest way to get what you want. uAppeal to its customer service record. Even the companies with the worst customer service reputations are still in the hospitality business. A gentle reminder that they are in the business of serving people is often all it takes to get the service you deserve. uGo up the chain. Ask to speak with a manager, and if that doesn’t work, send an appeal to the company’s corporate headquarters. Eventually, you might get a “yes.” (And if you don’t, email your complaint to travel@usatoday.com and we’ll try to help.)

But the stories that impress me the most are the ones about companies that do the right thing with little or no prompting.

He didn’t have to.

Great service means doing more, even when there’s nothing in it for you.

When a valet backed his BMW into a pillar, leaving him with a $14,000 repair bill, Christopher Kai rented a car from Enterprise.

He says he was floored by the experience.

The agent “saw that I was having a really bad day so he upgraded my rental free of charge,” remembers Kai, a business coach.

“When I returned my rental car a month later, another employee drove me back to the collision center. He was also cordial and professional. It’s always the simplest things that most matter in any conversation. Never thought I’d say this about a rental-car company, but from now on, I will only rent from Enterprise.”

Perhaps the most impressive stories are the ones about unprompted, spontaneous help.

The TSA and airlines, frequent objects of scorn by the readers of this column, showed my colleague Sally Black their compassionate side when she tried to hobble through Boston’s screening area recently.

“I slipped on the escalator on the last day of a conference, hurt my leg and cracked two ribs,” explained Black, who runs the website Vacationkids.com.

Two JetBlue pilots saw her struggling to get through the checkpoint, and even though they could have whizzed through the line by flashing their IDs, they stopped to help. A helpful TSA agent assisted, too. The pilots saw her to the gate, arranged for her to board early and carried her bag on the plane.

“I was so thankful,” she says.

So as you travel this summer, pay attention to those employees who go the extra mile, and reward those companies with your business.

People walk in the American Airlines/ US Airways Terminal at John F. Kennedy Airport last year in New York City.

walkways and trams “no one has to walk that entire distance unless they choose to,” said airport spokesman Patrick Hogan.

According to the brochure for the PHX Fitness Trail at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, it is almost a mile (5,222 feet) between Gate A30 and Gate D8 in Terminal 4, the airport’s largest terminal.

At Los Angeles International Airport, public relations director Nancy Castles not only identified the longest gate-to-gate walk a passenger might make, she walked with me from the southernmost gate (Gate 159) in the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT) to Gate 88 in United Airlines Terminal 8, a distance my measuring wheel clocked at 6,433 feet, or about 1.2 miles.

“Our walk involved going from one end of a terminal to the end of another terminal five terminals away,” Castles said. “But why would anyone walk that distance — or even two terminals away — when LAX offers free, convenient and frequent shuttle bus service 24/7 to help our guests reach connecting flights?”

At Philadelphia International Airport, the longest route on the secure side is between Gate A26 in Terminal A-West to E12 in Terminal E, a distance of 5,838 feet, or about 1.1 miles. For those who don’t take the shuttle bus between Terminals A and F, the walk from Gate A-26 to Gate F-39 in Terminal F is 7.072 feet, or 1.34 miles, and requires rescreening at the security checkpoint.

The longest interior walking distance at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport goes from Gate D6 to Gate A8, a distance DFW officials measured at 1.45 miles, using Google Maps.

And at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), the walking distance from the beginning of the domestic terminal to the international terminal gates is about 10,600 feet, just a smidge over 2 miles.

“But of course, we’ve got moving sidewalks, the automated people mover and many other options for getting around,” said ATL spokesman Reese McCranie.

“You could walk and get a good cardio workout, but there are plenty of other options for those who don’t want to walk.”

A British Airways 747 prepares to land at London’s Heathrow Airport on Feb. 18. As the jet approaches, pilots slow the plane.

Executing a proper aircraft descent John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

Q: How do pilots know when to descend to land on the assigned runway at the correct speed?

— Byron Pope, Detroit A: Pilots plan the descent based on the wind and air traffic flow. Working in partnership with air traffic control, the descent is executed allowing adequate distance to descend and line up with the proper runway.

In addition to the radar guidance from air traffic control, pilots program navigation computers and radios to ensure proper lateral and vertical paths.

Q: What do pilots do to descend? Decelerate, use flaps, or point the nose down?

— Alan Greener, Coconut Creek, Fla. A: Decreasing the power and decreasing the pitch (lowering the nose) are usually the two things done to descend. If a quick descent is needed, the power is reduced to idle, the nose is lowered and flight spoilers (panels on the top of the wing) are extended.

Q: How do pilots know what vertical speed to maintain for the descent, when to start reducing (or increasing) power,

and when to lower the flaps?

— Michael, California A: Pilots can calculate the speed of the airplane (miles per minute), the distance to go and determine the amount of time required (distance/speed).

Knowing the amount of altitude to descend and the vertical speed of the descent, the proper time to begin the descent can be determined. Most modern airplanes do these calculations for the pilot and provide him/her with a top of descent point in the flight management computer.

As the airplane approaches the area around the airport, pilots slow the airplane to match surrounding traffic and to configure for landing. The profile varies from airport to airport, but generally, around 5 miles from the runway, the airplane is at landing speed, with slats/flaps in the landing position, vertical descent speed less than 1,000 feet per minute and the engines powered up properly.

Pilot experience goes a long way in getting all of these parameters done efficiently and in a timely manner.

The 15-track collection features guests including Wiz Khalifa, Cory Gunz and Young Jeezy. Wayne joins the ranks of Madonna, Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé, who have all chosen Tidal as the place to unveil new music.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Through the big eyes of a little boy, director Sanjay Patel has animated his journey from a California kid watching cartoons to a man respecting his father’s Indian traditions.

Making its debut in front of The Good Dinosaur (in theaters Nov. 25), the Disney/Pixar short film Sanjay’s Super Team begins with a scene similar to Patel’s own upbringing in San Bernardino. Sanjay is glued to the TV, and Dad interrupts by ringing his bell for morning meditation.

“I knew exactly what that meant: ‘Turn off the TV, Sanjay, and get your tail over here. We’re going to chant and count mala beads for half an hour,’ ” Patel recalls, laughing. “And I’m like: ‘I don’t really want to do that. I really want to watch Voltron.’ ” But the little Sanjay in Super Team finds something cooler than his superhero show when he joins his father: Three Hindu deities come alive to take care of a pesky monster.

Patel initially pushed aside his immigrant parents’ culture because he wanted to fit in with his American friends. But later he found respect for Indian legends and began illustrating them with

When Sanjay turns away from his TV superheroes and toward his Indian traditions, he finds a whole new level of excitement.

“For kids who come from these backgrounds to see themselves onscreen, it’s exciting for us.”

Producer Nicole Paradis Grindle

skills he learned as an animator on Pixar films such as Toy Story 2, The Incredibles and Monsters, Inc. His new short “felt like this bridge I needed to bring these two things together,” says Patel,

who joins producer Nicole Paradis Grindle for a Sanjay’s Super Team panel Thursday at San Diego Comic-Con. The artwork and filmmaking in Pixar shorts and features have always originated from personal tales, Grindle says. Patel’s animation, however, “very clearly comes from a different cultural place than all the other stories we’ve told before. … And for kids who come from these backgrounds to see themselves onscreen, it’s exciting for us.”

Patel, 41, chose three deities to reference in Super Team: the monkey-like Hanuman, the goddess of power and protection Durga, and the blue-skinned

Vishnu, who represents preservation.

Some might liken them to a Hindu version of the Avengers, or an Indian take on Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, but they’re more meaningful to Patel.

“I kind of have an insider’s point of view, so I see them a little bit differently,” the filmmaker says.

The short doesn’t have any dialogue, so Patel enlisted the help of Oscar-winning composer Mychael Danna (Life of Pi) for a fittingly non-Western soundtrack.

When little Sanjay meets the deities, Danna employs a bansuri, a South Asian flute and spiritual instrument associated with Vishnu, Patel says.

“It’s a choice that only somebody who really understood the culture would make and something for sure my dad would really appreciate.”

Patel recently took his father, who runs the roadside Lido Motel in San Bernardino with his wife, to Pixar’s headquarters near San Francisco to show him Sanjay’s Super Team.

It was a moving and proud experience for both men but also “very karmic,” Patel says. “I’d be the first guy to sell out my dad and my parents’ culture, so it really felt like, man, I found a way back home and champion it.”

It took Patel until his 30s to become interested in Hindu heritage, so he has some patience when it comes to his 2-year-old son, Arjun: “He loves Mickey Mouse right now, and there’s nothing I can do to convince him otherwise.”

There’s no wiping out these dinosaurs.

Jurassic World is anything but extinct, topping the box office for a fourth straight weekend with $30.9 million and stomping over the openings of Magic Mike XXL and Terminator Genisys, according to tracking firm Rentrak.

The prehistoric blockbuster raised its totals to $558.2 million in the USA and almost $1.4 billion worldwide. It passes The Dark Knight ($534.9 million) as the fourth-highest-grossing movie ever stateside.

Chris Pratt and company helped Jurassic World pass The Dark Knight as the fourth-highest-grossing film ever in the USA. time goes on,” says Rentrak analyst Paul Dergarabedian. “It’s a testament to how strongly it’s resonating with audiences.”

Among the newcomers, XXL lacked the magic of its 2012 predecessor. The heavily promoted male-stripper extravaganza got off to a No. 1 start Wednesday

with $9.3 million, but its threeday Fourth of July weekend take amounted to just $12 million ($27.1 million total), good for fourth place.

More troubling was the start of Terminator Genisys, which came in third with $28.7 million ($44.2 million to date). The reboot of the

’80s sci-fi franchise may do little to fire up two planned sequels, although a higher international take could rectify that.

“Bringing (star) Arnold (Schwarzenegger) back was really smart, and Paramount did an effective job of marketing the film,” Dergarabedian says. But “it was a very competitive weekend.”

Pixar’s emotional Inside Out continued its third week at No. 2 with $30.1 million. Although Jurassic won the weekend, Inside walked away with the bigger fiveday holiday haul: $45.3 million since Wednesday, compared with Jurassic’s $43.8 million.

Rounding out the top five, raunchy comedy Ted 2 scraped up $11 million ($58.3 million total).

In limited release, documentary Amy, about singer Amy Winehouse, struck a chord, making $222,000 in six theaters, averaging a strong $37,000 per screen.

Final numbers are expected Monday.

“You guys may not know this, but he nicked his wrist up pretty good in Kansas City. He doesn’t have confidence shooting the ball right now. The ball is not going into the hole. I don’t know if he’s made a three since we’ve been here, if I’m not mistaken. It’s because of his wrist. It’s just sore. But hopefully another day off will get him closer to healthy because he’s so good with the ball.”

Despite a sore wrist, Ma-

son has averaged 13.5 points, 5.5 assists, 5.5 rebounds and two steals per game. He also has drawn 20 fouls.

“He’s out there every possession,” Self said. Mason has played at least 35 minutes in both games. “I thought that for the most part, he did well. We’ve just got to get (SMU senior guard) Nic (Moore) out there taking some pressure off of him.” l

Vick shines in fourth quarter: SMU senior guard Nic Moore fouled out with more than six minutes remaining in the fourth quarter in USA’s 81-72 victory

against Brazil on Sunday.

KU freshman guard Lagerald Vick made the most of the opportunity, picking up extra playing time in the fourth quarter.

Vick drilled a threepointer from the left corner early in the fourth quarter, ending a quick 4-0 run by Brazil.

He added a jumper a few minutes later and put the game out of reach with a three-pointer in the final minute to give the Jayhawks a 10-point lead.

U.S. women steamroll Cup final Vancouver, lumbia (ap) —

British CoCarli Lloyd lives for the big moment.

She had her biggest on Sunday night — and gave the United States its third Women’s World Cup title.

Lloyd scored three times as the U.S. jumped to a four-goal lead in the first 16 minutes, and the Ameri-

cans overwhelmed defending champion Japan 5-2 for the team’s first World Cup championship since 1999 and record third overall.

A sellout crowd of 53,341 that included U.S. Vice President Joe Biden roared in approval for Lloyd’s hat trick, the first ever in a Women’s World Cup final.

“It’s been a long journey, my career. I’ve had a lot of people believe in me, in my corner, from day one,” the 32-year-old midfielder said.

“I’ve dedicated my whole life to this. Everything else comes second. But I wouldn’t want to do it any other way.”

When it was over, Lloyd

collapsed to her knees and pumped her fists. Forward Abby Wambach bearhugged teary eyed coach Jill Ellis, lifting her off the Elaine Thompson/AP Photo ground.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The AL champion Kansas City Royals had so many starters voted into the All-Star Game on Sunday that they ran out of seats for all of them.

Not that it was a problem.

Salvador Perez, their affable catcher, simply hopped off the platform and grabbed his own chair from the crowd. With a good-natured smile, he carried it back onto the stage and settled in alongside shortstop Alcides Escobar and outfielders Lorenzo Cain and Alex Gordon.

Cut the Royals some slack, though. This is the first time in franchise history that they’ve had four starters voted into the Midsummer Classic, and the most players they’ve had total since George Brett led five All-Stars onto the 1982 team. The last time Kansas City had any starters was 2000, when outfielder Jermaine Dye was chosen to start.

“I really do feel great,” said Royals manager Ned Yost, who will have his entire coaching staff along with him when he manages the AL squad on July 14 in Cincinnati.

“We’re going to have a blast,”

WIMBLEDON

London (ap) — One fivetime Wimbledon champion is guaranteed to reach the quarterfinals. Another is assured of elimination.

That’s what will happen today when Serena Williams plays older sister Venus Williams for the sixth time at the grass-court Grand Slam in southwest London.

“They’ve been unbelievable for the sport. I’ve said that many times,” said Roger Federer, a seven-time Wimbledon champion who will also be playing on Manic Monday. “Their head-toheads, I don’t know how much that has to do with it.

I think it’s more their individual play.”

Individually and together, the Williams sisters have become two of the greatest champions at the All England Club.

They have each won five singles titles, and have teamed up to win five more in doubles.

Against each other on the grass at Wimbledon, Serena leads 3-2, with all three of her wins coming in finals. Venus won one final, and also won a semifinal match against her younger sibling in 2000 — the first time they met on court at the tournament.

Although Serena is still at the top of her game and going for a true Grand Slam this season, Venus has been struggling for the past few years and was diagnosed with an energy-sapping autoimmune disease in 2011, three years after her last Wimbledon title.

It was the previous year, in 2010, when she last reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon.

But this year, Venus has been nearing her past high standards, winning all three of her matches in straight sets.

“She’s playing so well,” Serena said. “I’m practicing next to her every day and I’m in awe of how she’s doing. It’s a little frustrating because I know I have to play her.”

The Williams matchup is just one of the 16 fourth-round matches on the schedule for today — eight for the men and eight for the women.

RACE CARS SIT COVERED ON PIT ROAD DURING A RAIN SHOWER before the NASCAR Sprint Cup race on Sunday in Daytona Beach, Florida. The race started nearly five hours late and wasn’t completed by press time.

Danny Lee takes Greenbrier in playoff White Sulpher Springs, W.Va. — Danny Lee parred the second hole of a four-man playoff to win The Greenbrier Classic on Sunday for his first PGA Tour victory.

The South Korean-born New Zealander earned $1.2 million and became the ninth firsttime winner on the tour this season.

Lee, David Hearn, Kevin Kisner and Robert Streb were tied at 13 under after four rounds on the Old White TPC course in West Virginia.

Streb shot a 5-under 65 in the final round by making five birdie putts on the back nine with a 56-degree wedge after breaking his putter on the ninth hole. The putter broke when Streb tossed it at his bag next to the green.

He was allowed a replacement putter for the playoff, but he never got to use it after missing the green at the par-3 No. 18. Lee and Hearn made birdie putts on the first playoff hole, also eliminating Kisner.

Hearn then drove behind a tree on the par-5 17th and made bogey. Lee reached the green in three shots and two-putted from across the green for par.

It marked the third playoff in the tournament’s six-year history. A week ago, Bubba Watson won the Travelers Championship in a playoff.

NBA

Lakers to sign Lou Williams Los Angeles — The Los Angeles Lakers say they plan to sign guard Lou Williams, last season’s Sixth Man of the Year, and forward Brandon Bass.

Williams averaged a career-high 15.5 points and helped Toronto win a franchise-record 49 games in 2014-15, his lone season there. The Lakers have upgraded their guard rotation by adding Williams after drafting Ohio State’s D’Angelo Russell with the No. 2 pick.

Bass averaged 10.6 points while playing all 82 games for Boston.

Deals can’t be signed until Thursday, but general manager Mitch Kupchak says Sunday in a release that the Lakers are negotiating with both players and intend to sign them once the free agent moratorium ends.

TOUR DE FRANCE

Froome, Contador have edge Neeltje Jans, Netherlands — In ferocious winds and thunderous rain, Chris Froome and Alberto Contador managed to use the conditions to their advantage on the second stage of the Tour de France.

That gave them the early leg up on main rivals Vincenzo Nibali and Nairo Quintana.

While it’s too soon for anyone to gain a decisive advantage in the race, British rider Froome and the Spaniard Contador are certainly on the front foot in what is widely touted as a fourway Tour battle.

They’re more than a minute ahead of defending champion Nibali and Quintana after both rivals fell behind when the peloton split up in the heavy winds.

“We knew that in stages like today there might be even more differences made than in the mountains,” said Contador, who is bidding for a third Tour title. “I was speaking to Froome and (Tejay) Van Garderen, and I told them that these are the kind of opportunities you have to take.”

Froome crossed the line in seventh place, 1 minute 28 seconds ahead of Nibali and Quintana, while Contador gained 1:24 on those two after placing 13th.

The action-packed trek swept along the spectacular Dutch coastline, with Andre Greipel winning a sprint to clinch a seventh Tour stage victory.

Royals top Twins with walk-off Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Royals manager Ned Yost treats just about every game the same, especially in July, because the reality is that they all count the same at the end of the season.

So when he singles one out, it must have been important.

Eric Hosmer drove in Lorenzo Cain with nobody out in the ninth inning Sunday, helping Kansas City beat the Minnesota Twins 3-2 and earn a fourgame split between AL Central contenders.

“It’s huge. It’s as big a game as you’re going to play in early July,” Yost said, his own head drenched in sweat. “Very seldom do you have a chance to make it a twogame swing.”

The game was knotted two-all when Cain drew a leadoff walk against Blaine Boyer (2-4), who had been summoned to relieve Ervin Santana after a master-

ful return from his drug suspension.

Twins manager Paul Molitor then called upon Aaron Thompson to face Hosmer, who promptly ripped a pitch down the right-field line. Cain sprinted around third base at full speed, and a throw from Torii Hunter in right field was nowhere close to getting him at the plate.

Greg Holland (2-0) earned the win with a scoreless ninth inning.

“This is a good team, and they’re playing well,” said Alex Gordon, who homered along with making several stellar plays in left field. “It’s good to come out with two games, especially when I don’t feel like we’re playing our best baseball.”

Aaron Hicks homered and Miguel Sano drove in the other run for Minnesota.

The victory allowed the first-place Royals to salvage what had been a

rough series against the Twins, who remain in second in the division. Kansas City was shut out in the opener, needed extra innings to win Friday night, then lost 5-3 on Saturday.

Santana certainly didn’t look like he had missed 80 games for testing positive for Stanozolo, a performance-enhancing substance. After winning each of three rehab starts at Triple-A Rochester, he made his former team look like just another minor-league club.

Santana retired the first six batters he faced before issuing a walk, and then got a double play after Drew Butera drove in Kansas City’s first run in the third inning.

Santana only allowed one more hit before Alcides Escobar’s twoout knock in the eighth, though it happened to be a big one: Gordon’s high fly ball that just cleared the right-field wall.

KANSAS 81, BRAZIL 72

L awrence J ournal -W orld

KANSAS UNIVERSITY GUARD WAYNE SELDEN JR. SIGNALS A THREE-POINT BASKET during the United States’ victory over Brazil.

U.S. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

“Just playing basketball,” said Selden, who shot 8-for-14 from the floor, including 3-for-6 from three. “My teammates found me when I was open, and I just knocked down shots.”

The Jayhawks struggled in the first quarter, shooting 27 percent from the field (3-of-11) with nine turnovers. Despite the problems on offense, they only trailed by one point, forcing Brazil into tough shots and cleaning up the glass. Team USA won the rebounding battle, 50-27.

“We came back into the huddle and kind of had to change our mind-set a little bit, kind of refocus in,” KU senior forward Hunter Mickelson said of the difference after the first quarter. “That first quarter was a little bit shaky, just getting into things.

But like I said, once we got back in the huddle, we kind of settled down, refocused and came out better from there.”

Self added of the first quarter: “It was awful.

We had 22 (turnovers) for the game. Perry (Ellis) didn’t have a good game.

Our bigs all got off to a terrible start.”

For the second straight game, the Jayhawks defended well. Brazil shot 39 percent from the field (26-of-67), including 6-of26 from outside the threepoint arc.

“We’re really improving there,” Selden said. “I know we’re Team USA right now, but as Team Kansas, that’s where we struggled at last year and the year before, and we’re really trying to improve that.”

Brazil pulled within eight points in the fourth quarter, cutting the margin to 64-56 with 6:30 remaining. But Selden drilled a jump shot, and junior point guard Frank Mason III grabbed a steal and dished an assist in the paint to Mickelson for

a layup-and-the-foul to start a decisive 9-2 run.

KU senior forward Ellis sat for most of the fourth quarter because of what Self said was a “tweaked ankle,” and SMU senior guard Nic Moore fouled out, leading to extra minutes for Mickelson (11 points and eight rebounds in 25 minutes) and KU freshman guard Lagerald Vick (eight points and six rebounds in 24 minutes).

Senior Jamari Traylor added 10 points and two rebounds in 19 minutes off of the bench.

“We’re not going to have a chance to advance very far if Nic only plays nine minutes and fouls out,” Self said. “But I thought that really our bench carried us to where I thought our starters carried us the other night.”

Mason added four points and four assists in the fourth quarter, helping the Jayhawks pull away.

“Frank did a really good job of getting into the lane,” Selden said of Mason, who had 15 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in 38 minutes. “The bigs really did a good job of spacing out. We found shooters.

Lagerald made real big shots down the stretch.

He played his best game as a Jayhawk so far, and I’m really proud of him.”

But the Jayhawks were sparked by Selden when they had trouble finding an offensive rhythm in the first half. His eight points in the second quarter helped USA go on a 14-0 run over three minutes.

“Wayne looks healthier to me,” Self said.

“He’s more bouncy. For a guy his size to play 39 minutes — that’s pretty strong — and then not be tired, his conditioning is off the charts. He’s obviMike Yoder/Journal-World Photos ously worked really hard SMU GUARD NIC MOORE IS COVERED BY DEFENDERS during an 81-72 victory over Brazil on Sunday in Gwangju, South this summer.”

TEAM USA COMES OFF THE COURT TO FANS’ CHEERS after an 81-72 victory against Brazil on Sunday in Gwangju, South Korea.

KANSAS FORWARD PERRY ELLIS (34) HEADS TO THE BASKET for two points. Ellis had nine points in 21 minutes before sitting out most of the fourth quarter because of a “tweaked” ankle.

Ellis ‘tweaks’ ankle

Gwangju, South Korea — Kansas University senior forward Perry Ellis sat for most of the fourth quarter in Team USA’s 81-72 victory over Brazil on Sunday because of a tweaked ankle.

KANSAS GUARD LAGERALD VICK DRIVES against a pair of Brazil defenders.

KU GUARD FRANK MASON III HITS THE FLOOR after a shot from in front of the KU bench.

junior guard Wayne Selden Jr. said. “He played his best game as a Jayhawk so far, and I’m really proud of him.

“Everyone was there when they were freshmen.

They really didn’t know what to do. They didn’t really know their way. This game was a real good foot in the door for him.”

Vick finished with eight points (3-of-6 shooting) and six rebounds in 24 minutes.

“It feels good to win, you know,” Vick said.

“Me coming in, newcomer, learning the system …

I’m just working hard and playing like them.

“My confidence is so high, so it really doesn’t bother me because I’m used to like clutch time.”

Vick was scoreless in eight minutes against Turkey, going 0-for-3 from the floor.

“It’s the first time, I thought, since he’s been here with us that he played to his athletic

Ellis finished with nine points and eight rebounds in 21 minutes.

“Perry, he tweaked his ankle. I don’t know exactly what it is,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “(Trainer) Bill (Cowgill) said it wasn’t anything structural. Hopefully it’s just sore and he’ll be able

to bounce back. The day off will help him, though.”

Junior forward Landen Lucas only played three minutes, committing two turnovers and blocking one shot.

“Landen is fine,” Self said. “There is nothing wrong with Landen physically.”

ability rebounding the ball and quick-twitch,” Self said. “He’s going to be really good. He’s got so much to learn. But I thought he did great. Of course, it’s always good to make a shot to get your confidence, and he made two big ones.” l

Undefeated mind-set: Team USA players are feeling good heading into their first off day with a 2-0 record.

Serbia is the only other team in Pool D of the World University Games with an undefeated record. Serbia beat Switzerland, 58-41, and topped Chile, 69-43.

“We thought in order to have the best chance to get out of this pool, obviously, we needed to be 2-0 at this juncture,” Self said. “Then we need to

obviously play well and win on Tuesday, which will set up a really big game against Serbia. I think we’re doing fine.

“I think the guys are doing fine. Certainly they’re trying hard. I’m amazed at how poorly we’ve played, at times, offensively, but how well we’ve guarded defensively. It’s almost unbelievable what our first-shot defense and our rebounding has been.”

The USA players are off on Monday before returning to the court to play Chile at 2:30 p.m.

(12:30 a.m. CDT) Tuesday at Muan Indoor Court.

The game will not be televised.

“It feels great,” KU senior forward Hunter Mickelson said. “Like I’ve said, our guys have been playing really well. We’re definitely not done yet.”

SCOREBOARD Final All-Star Fan Voting

Elaine Thompson/AP Photo

THE UNITED STATES’ WOMEN’S NATIONAL TEAM CELEBRATES with the trophy as confetti falls after the U.S. beat Japan 5-2 in the FIFA Women’s World Cup soccer championship Sunday in Vancouver, British Columbia.

U.S. women CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

span of about 135 seconds as the U.S. led 2-0 by the fifth minute.

Lauren Holiday boosted the lead in the 14th and two minutes later Lloyd made it 4-0 with an audacious 54-yard, rightfooted shot from midfield that sailed over goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori.

Japan closed on Yuki Ogimi’s goal in the 27th and an own goal by Julie Johnston on an errant header in the 52nd. Tobin Heath scored two minutes later, the third goal off a restart for the Americans.

The U.S. had struggled in the World Cup since winning the inaugural tournament in 1991 and then again at the Rose Bowl eight years later.

Christie Rampone, the only holdover from the 1999 team, lifted the trophy with Wambach, the

35-year-old former FIFA Player of the Year who has said this will be her last World Cup. Wambach was among the most vocal opponents of FIFA’s decision to play the tournament on artificial turf.

With FIFA President Sepp Blatter staying away during a U.S. criminal investigation of soccer officials, the trophy was presented by FIFA Senior Vice President Issa Hayatou of Cameroon, the head of African soccer’s governing body.

Hope Solo won her second straight Golden Glove as top goalkeeper of the tournament. She played despite critics who urged the U.S. Soccer Federation to drop her after she initially faced two misdemeanor counts of domestic violence from a June 2014 altercation at her half-sister’s house, charges that were dismissed earlier this year.

Solo, who hasn’t spoken to the media for most

of the tournament, proclaimed simply: “We did it! Awesome!”

The title, which adds a coveted third star to the American uniform, also vindicated the U.S. Soccer Federation for its decision in April 2014 to fire coach Tom Sermanni, who had replaced Pia Sundhage the previous year, and replace him with Ellis, the Britishborn American who had been an assistant on the coaching staff.

Ellis’ coaching was criticized early in the World Cup tournament when the United States appeared to sputter at times on offense. Shifting Lloyd up top as an attacking midfielder in the semifinal against top-ranked Germany and again in the final, did the trick.

“I want to thank Jill,” Lloyd said. “I know lots of people out in the stands were worried about us.

We all held together. We all stayed the course. We all executed the game plan.”

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Dad fights with, insults sister with anger issues Dear Annie: My father has always been especially unkind to my sister, “Portia.” She always has had behavioral problems, not to mention she is a bit paranoid and has a ferocious temper.

My older sister and I try to show Portia lots of love, but Dad usually deals with her problems with anger, insults and general vitriol. Though he has occasionally shown her support over the years, he usually singles her out as the “problem” child. There have been times when he has screamed and even intervened physically when my sisters have fought, always pinning the blame on Portia.

Recently, Dad’s anger has grown and he reacts testily to every comment or question Portia makes. He even reacts poorly to my mother,

Annie’s Mailbox

and is now talking about moving in with his sister in another state until his depression and anxiety subside.

Dad’s behavior seems really disturbing to me and borders on abuse. Yet my mother submits over and over to his anger. What should we do? — Afraid of Escalation Dear Afraid: There’s not much you can do for your mother, who doesn’t see this as a serious problem. She is

‘Chasing Life’ out of gate early Like many soap operas and series adapted from telenovelas, the drama “Chasing Life” (8 p.m., ABC Family) really knows how to pile on the complications. It’s not enough that April (Italia Ricci) is facing an aggressive form of cancer. She’s barely reconciled to that when she learns that the details of her birth are a tad hazy. Add endless professional complications (like losing her job) and a sudden engagement, and you’ve got a character with a malignancy forced to multi-task.

In the second season premiere, April vows to go with the flow and really enjoy her engagement party. What could go wrong?

Originally scheduled to return in August at 9 p.m., “Life” was moved up to replace the struggling documentary series “Becoming Us,” which has been bumped to 9 p.m. ‘‘Chasing Life” will now follow “The Fosters” (7 p.m., ABC Family). The melodramas on that series have nothing on the “POV” (9 p.m., PBS) documentary presentation “Tough Love.”

This film follows two sets of parents — one in New York and one in Seattle — as they try to regain custody of their children and remove them from the foster-care system. All parties admit to wrong-headed decisions, some arising out of substance abuse. ‘‘Tough Love” shows how they pursue their children through the bureaucratic maze of the child welfare system, where individual judges have remarkable power and discretion in determining just what defines a healthy family environment.

Many documentary and fictional depictions of foster care, including “The Fosters,” put emphasis on foster parents and the abandonment of children.

“Tough Love” shows that at times, loving parents are also in the equation, asking to be given a second chance.

Tonight’s other highlights O The top 20 emerge on “So You Think You Can Dance” (7 p.m., Fox).

O Amateur magicians audition on the season premiere of “Penn & Teller: Fool Us” (7 p.m., CW).

O The squad’s helicopter crashes and sparks a wildfire on “Scorpion” (8 p.m., CBS).

O A witness’s protection is central to a gang-related case on “Major Crimes” (8 p.m., TNT).

O A Navy contractor takes his last breath on “NCIS: Los Angeles” (9 p.m., CBS).

O Bear commends the lads after they complete their 28-day “journey” on the season finale of “The Island” (9 p.m., NBC).

O Drill’s message and mission may finally be clear on “The Whispers” (9 p.m., ABC).

accustomed to Dad’s moods and prefers to avoid confrontation.

Would your father see a doctor about his depression and anxiety instead of waiting for them to “subside” on their own?

Portia’s issues may be genetically linked to her father’s, and she also is likely to benefit from both medical intervention and therapy.

If your father wishes to move in with his sister for a while, then that will provide an opportunity for everyone to calm down. Dad obviously recognizes that he has a problem and that a little distance can help. Perhaps his sister will convince him to talk to his doctor.

Dear Annie: I’m responding to “Feeling Unloved,” the divorced dad whose teenaged kids don’t seem to want to spend time with him:

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, July 6: This year you find that others express their discontentment more often. Avoid getting into power plays by simply not playing.

You have a vision that others cannot grasp. Trying to communicate sometimes might be difficult. If you are single, you seem to know when you meet the right person.

If you are attached, the two of you find much of this year to be very special, particularly once summer passes.

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) +++ Take your time when making decisions; some confusion seems to surround a situation.

Tonight: Read between the lines.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ++++ Others might misread a statement. However, you see the same message in the best possible light. Tonight: Avoid a conflict that is not yours.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ Allow more creativity into the moment. A financial matter could be beyond your ability to handle. Tonight: All smiles.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ You’ll be able to see where someone is coming from by looking at his or her actions.

Tonight: Avoid a skirmish.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ A partner will have a lot to share. You expect some far-out

First and foremost, if your kids are angry or resentful, encourage them to talk about it and simply listen without being defensive or blaming the other parent. It hurts, and it’s hard to hear, but it’s what they need. They are kids navigating a difficult situation they feel powerless to change.

Second, remember that they are teenagers. Most teenagers can be a bit self-centered and focused on friends rather than family.

Finally, don’t expect them to call you. Invite them places, even if it’s out for pizza. And if they decline, then ask them when would be a good time. And don’t give up.

It will get better. — G. — Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annie’s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

ideas from this person. Tonight: Listen to someone else’s story.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ Defer to someone else, and you might be taken aback by how different his or her approach is. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) +++ You could be surprised by your lack of organization right now. Open up to new possibilities.

Tonight: Pace yourself.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) +++++ Reach out for more information. You might not be getting the whole story. Tonight: Act as if there were no tomorrow.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) +++ Remember that often it is a fundamental judgment you make about a situation that results in stress. Tonight: Head home.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ If you find yourself in the middle of an argument, ask yourself why you are pushing others so hard. Tonight: Hang out and relax.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) +++ Do something spontaneous. Remember, everyone sees situations differently. Tonight: Dinner for two.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) +++++ Your imagination will allow you to do the impossible when working with an idea.

Tonight: Just be you.
