Horse parade loses funding source

———

By Chad Lawhorn

Under consideration: property tax increase of 3.86 mills, various funding requests

@clawhorn_ljw

Here’s your chance to saddle up as part of Lawrence’s horse-powered OldFashioned Christmas Parade.

Organizers of the nonprofit event that draws tens of thousands of people to downtown Lawrence in early December have announced they’ve lost their major sponsor for the parade.

It costs around $25,000 to cover the basic expenses of the parade, such as a meal and lodging for participants and stable rental for the horses. The loss of Wells Fargo Advisors, who had

Santorum stumps for Brownback, calling him protector of values

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Olathe — Republican Gov. Sam Brownback tried to re-energize his campaign Monday by drawing on the support of his one-time colleague in the U.S. Senate, former presidential candidate Rick Santorum, of Pennsylvania.

Speaking to a crowd of supporters, as well as to some teachers who showed

up to protest, Santorum said traditional American values are under assault, and he argued that Brownback is the candidate who would stand up to defend them.

Douglas County commissioners today will consider a proposed budget that includes a property tax increase of 3.86 mills.

Commissioners Mike Gaughan, Nancy Thellman and Jim Flory will go through the county’s budget and approve spending priorities and a tax rate that will be set for a final vote in August. The meeting starts at 8:30 a.m. in the County Courthouse.

For a home valued at $185,000, property taxes would go up $82 under the Weinaug plan. The spending plan also includes a 3 percent pay raise for county employees.

Much of the proposed increase is due to actions by the Kansas Legislature or state agencies, County Administrator Craig Weinaug said.

The Legislature approved a four-year

We all need to get to it.”

The rally in Olathe was held at Cars4Less, a used car dealership that the Brownback campaign held up as an example of the success of the Republican-sponsored tax cuts enacted during his administration. Campaign officials said the tax cuts had enabled it to expand its operations and add more jobs.

State Rep. Paul Davis of Lawrence, the presumptive Democratic nominee, has argued that those tax cuts have not stimulated the economy and will leave the state with a huge budget deficit within two or three years.

But Santorum focused his remarks more on so-

— Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum cial and religious issues, saying traditional values in America are under assault from political forces on the left.

“People don’t think America can be lost,” Santorum said. “If you look at what’s going on in our court system, look at what’s going on in the Congress, and the president with his executive orders ... And you don’t realize what’s happening.”

Also appearing at the rally was Sen. Pat Roberts, a three-term incumbent who faces a primary challenge this year from Tea Party-backed candidate Milton Wolf. In his own remarks, Roberts repeated the theme of American values being

under attack.

“There is a palpable fear in America and in Kansas ... that the America that we love and we cherish and we honor and we profit from is in such a state that it will not be the same America for our kids and grandkids,” Roberts said. “That is the issue of the day.”

Three of the four public polls that have been conducted so far in the campaign show Brownback trailing Davis. The most recent, an automated poll conducted

by SurveyUSA, showed Brownback trailing by 6 percentage points, 47-41 percent.

Brownback said the news media were partly to blame for his cam-

— Elaine VanDeventer, the director for the parade said. “It is tough to organize a parade if your fund balance is at zero.”

The parade has grown into a Lawrence holiday tradition. VanDeventer said her research indicates there are probably only about five other entirely horse-drawn parades in operation in the U.S. The event was named in 2012 as one of the “10 great places to put a spin on the Christmas spirit” by USA Today.

But VanDeventer said the parade needs a new dose of publicity to keep it vibrant. She would like to do some advertising in regional cities such as St. Louis, Omaha, Oklahoma City and other places that are a day’s drive away.

That could increase spectator numbers, but she said the parade really needs to start advertising to horse and carriage owners to ensure the event has plenty of participants in the years to come.

L awrence J ournal -W orld “We need to get the word out to sustain it because some of the participants are getting a bit long in the tooth,” said Patty Kennedy, another organizer of the parade.

The parade currently receives $6,000 from the city of Lawrence through its fund that collects sales taxes from hotel rooms.

The group is likely to have that amount increased to $8,000, based on preliminary discussion by city commissioners. The remainder of the parade’s funding comes from the corporate sponsorship and smaller $200 sponsorships of individual horse and carriage teams.

The parade doesn’t charge an entry fee to participants, in part, because horse owners already spend a considerable amount of money to trailer their horses and vehicles to Lawrence, VanDeventer said. She said organizers also want to be careful about making other changes to the parade because she said the ambiance of the parade is one of its main drawing cards.

“It really is a spectacle,” VanDeventer said. “It is almost like it is a vision of Christmas Past.”

crease contributions to employee pensions; and to hire independent appraisers in tax disputes with industrial property owners.

And reductions in mental health grants at the state level have prompted increases in local spending to assist Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center.

Costs also are going up in several areas. For example, because of capacity problems at the Douglas County Jail, the county budgeted $100,000 this fiscal year to house excess inmates in Johnson County. But that is expected to increase to $250,000 next year due to continued capacity problems and the recent decision by Johnson County officials to increase their daily charges.

Since the county budget proposal was unveiled last week, various groups and interests have made supplemental re-

quests. If approved in total, these requests would raise taxes by more than 6 mills.

Some of those requests include: l $855,926 to hire five new sheriff’s deputies; eight more correction officers for the county jail; and a coordinator for the prisoner re-entry program; l $529,731 for ambulance service to Eudora; l $76,940 for a media information/technology specialist in the district attorney’s office to handle the increased use of computers and electronic media in the investigation, record-keeping, and prosecution of crimes; l $55,474 to restore a fifth agent position in the Douglas County Extension Office; l $29,150 for grants for soil conservation projects.

paign struggling. He said a record number of people are now working in Kansas, and he repeated his claim — which many education advocates dispute — that he has increased “total” education funding each year of his administration.

But he said most of the news stories about his administration have been negative, adding: “We’re not getting a lot of good reporting from the Kansas City Star.”

Also attending the rally, however, were about two dozen teachers in red T-shirts who heckled at some of the remarks. Afterwards, most said they were not impressed by the speeches.

They have been showing up routinely at most of Brownback’s public events this summer to protest his signing a bill to repeal teacher tenure rights, as well as the cuts in base state aid to schools that have been enacted during his administration.

Steve Stemmerman, a

special education teacher at Liberty Memorial Central Middle School in Lawrence, made the trip to Olathe to see the rally and said he thought Santorum injected too much religion into the campaign.

“He wasn’t explaining why things were good for Brownback, just saying that if you have religious conviction, you need to vote for him without any substance behind it,” Stemmerman said.

But Republican activists left the rally feeling enthused.

“I thought it was marvelous,” said Yvonne Starks, a Brownback supporter from Olathe. “I thought it was very important for the American people, the Kansan people, to realize that we have to stop them. We have to stand up, speak up. We have to work. We have to fight back.”

Kansas among states told to clear Medicaid backlog by deadline

By Judy Lin Associated Press

Sacramento, Calif.

— A half-dozen states with backlogs for Medicaid enrollees were facing a federal deadline Monday to create plans for getting those low-income residents enrolled in health coverage.

The federal Centers

for Medicare & Medicaid Services sent letters dated June 27 to Alaska, California, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri and Tennessee asking those states to address gaps in their eligibility and enrollment systems that have delayed access to coverage for poor and disabled people.

The letter was sent

months after the first line for actually clearnational sign-up drive ing the backlog. under President The federal Barack Obama’s government health reform “will remain in law. close contact The letters with states to stated that monitor their those states had progress to en10 days to come sure that they HEALTH up with a reare facilitatsponse plan, but ing Medicaid health advocates say enrollment for those there is no clear dead- individuals eligible,”

agency spokeswoman Marilyn Jackson said in a statement.

The states facing the federal deadline are a mix of those that opted to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act and those that did not.

Obama’s health reform law led to the signup of about 8 million people in private

health care coverage through the insurance exchanges, while an additional 3 million people enrolled in Medicaid, the statefederal program for the poor and low-income.

The federal government initially picks up the full tab for the Medicaid expansion, which was accepted by about half the states.

with the rainy June, which brought 9.16 inches of precipitation, compared with 5.88 inches in a normal June. The rain has continued in July, which so far has had average precipitation. Still, to date, the Lawrence area remains about 3 inches of rain shy of an average year.

“The good news overall is we’ve had an almost magical combination of temperatures and precipitation to allow for the summer crops to fare very well,” said state climatologist Mary Knapp.

“While we’ve had some warm days, we haven’t had persistently warm days, which is perfect for corn and soybeans.”

She added that river and stock pond levels have been inching closer to normal. And she pointed out that while the Kansas River is technically low, that has more to do with water not being released from upstream reservoirs.

In addition, the Clinton Lake conservation pool has filled and seven-day stream flow averages are in the normal range, said Katie Ingels, spokeswoman for the Kansas Water Office.

She also noted that, according to the Palmer Drought Index, the eastcentral climate division of Kansas, which includes Douglas County, is in need of 2.25 inches of precipitation to officially end the drought.

The bill is called a “fee and dividend” proposal, which is somewhat similar to the “cap and trade” model that some Democrats have embraced but most Republicans have rejected.

Under the plan, first introduced by Sens. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., it would assess a fee on carbon-based fuel at the

Lawrence resident Sandy Praeger has made a political career out of trying to expand access to health care, including for the senior population.

Kansas Advocates for Better Care are honoring her for that commitment by giving her the 2014 KABC Caring Award.

Praeger, the Kansas insurance commissioner, has been advocating for

long-term-care issues since she joined the state Legislature in the 1990s. She worked with KABC to pass laws to expand independence, choice and services for Praeger seniors living at home, as well as quality and choice for nursinghome residents.

The fee starts out small, then gradually rises each year, causing slow but predictable increases in the price of carbon-based energy.

Theoretically, supporters say, that would send a signal to markets to invest in cleaner energy alternatives.

However, the tax would be revenue-neutral for the government because 100 percent of the money generated would be rebated to American households, helping them absorb the higher energy prices.

Praeger gives much of the credit to KABC’s late founder, Anna “Petey” Cerf, who worked alongside her on many of these issues.

Doll also discussed land owned in west Lawrence and the possible future construction of new elementary or middle schools.

Should it not be chosen, Doll said the city has expressed interest in participating with the district in a school-park combination where the district would purchase eight to 10 of the site’s 20 acres for a school.

Doll also raised the possibility of selling the northwest corner of Holcomb Park that the district owns.

He also reminded the board that the district owned about 45 acres at 1480 East 800 Road, a mile west of the Kansas Highway 10 interchange, and about 76 acres at 1703 North 1348 Road, where the South Lawrence Trafficway will soon cut along.

“Oh my gosh, this was an incredible year,” Pettengill said. “Quite a few members of Congress said they’d never seen anything like that from a volunteer organization. This was my third year, and each year has gotten a more positive response than before.”

Swiss Lindt buys Russell Stover Geneva — Swiss chocolate maker Lindt & Spruengli says it is buying U.S. manufacturer Russell Stover Candies, Inc., for an undisclosed sum.

Lindt CEO Ernst Tanner said Monday that the purchase provides “a unique opportunity for us to expand our North American chocolate business.” The company says the deal will make it the No. 3 chocolate manufacturer in North America.

Russell Stover, which also owns the Whitman’s brand, is based in Kansas City, Mo., and has four factories — in Kansas, Texas and Colorado.

It has about 2,700 employees and annual sales of around $500 million.

Citigroup to pay $7B in subprime mortgages probe

By Eric Tucker Associated Press

Washington — Citigroup agreed Monday to pay $7 billion to settle a federal investigation into its handling of risky subprime mortgages, admitting to a pattern of deception that Attorney General Eric Holder said “shattered lives” and contributed to the worst financial crisis in decades.

The settlement represents a moment of reckoning for one of the country’s biggest and most significant banks, which is now accountable for providing some financial support to Americans whose lives were dismantled by the largest economic meltdown since the Great Depression.

In addition to a $4 billion civil penalty being paid to the federal government, the bank will also pay $2.5 billion in consumer relief

“

Justice Department officials called the $4 billion component the largest civil penalty of its kind. It will not be tax-deductible.

The $2.5 billion in consumer relief is directed at underwater homeowners and borrowers in areas of the country with high numbers of distressed properties and foreclosures. The sum includes refinancing for homeowners struggling with high interest rates on their mortgages, closing cost help for borrowers who lost homes to foreclosure, donations to community development funds and financing for construction and affordable rental housing.

The deal and others like it will probably benefit hundreds of thousands of Americans, said Associate Attorney General Tony West, though Holder also acknowledged that many people would not be ad-

In the context of the damage done, the damage even described by the attorney general, we’re not even in the same ballpark.”

— Bartlett Naylor, financial policy advocate for Public Citizen to help borrowers who lost their homes to foreclosure and about $500 million to settle claims from state attorneys general and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The agreement does not preclude the possibility of criminal prosecutions for the bank or individual employees in the future, Holder said.

The $7 billion settlement, which represents about half of Citigroup’s $13.7 billion profit last year, is the latest substantial penalty sought for a bank or mortgage company at the epicenter of the housing crisis. The Justice Department, criticized for not being aggressive

enough in targeting financial misconduct, has in the last year reached a $13 billion deal with JPMorgan Chase & Co., the nation’s largest bank, and also sued Bank of America Corp. for misleading investors in its sale of mortgage-linked securities.

Yet the settlement packages pale in size compared to the broader damages caused by the Great Recession. The unemployment rate spiked to 10 percent as millions lost their jobs and their homes, causing losses that totaled in the trillions of dollars. Consumers groups criticized the settlement as a sweetheart deal.

“In the context of the

damage done, the damage even described by the attorney general, we’re not even in the same ballpark,” said Bartlett Naylor, a financial policy advocate for Public Citizen, which represents consumer interests.

The settlement stems from the sale of toxic securities made up of subprime mortgages, which led to both the housing boom and bust that triggered the Great Recession at the end of 2007. Banks, including Citigroup, minimized the risks of subprime mortgages when packaging and selling them to mutual funds, investment trusts and pensions, as well as other banks and investors.

equately compensated.

Citigroup should have the capital needed to absorb the $7 billion settlement, said Gerard Cassidy, a managing director and analyst at RBC Capital Markets. In fact, investors were relieved that the issue was no longer confronting the bank and pushed up Citigroup’s stock price on Monday, and CEO Michael Corbat said the settlement ends all pending civil investigations related to mortgagebacked securities.

But the “unintended consequence” of the settlement is that banks such as Citigroup are less likely to lend, hurting would-be homebuyers with student debt who are seeking a mortgage.

“Banks won’t go near those customers because, in our opinion, the severity of the penalties that they paid,” Cassidy said.

In rush to cut disability benefits backlog, VA made errors

By Matthew Daly Associated Press

Washington — In a rush to cut a huge backlog of claims for disability benefits, the Department of Veterans Affairs is making payments to tens of thousands of veterans without adequate medical evidence that they deserve the benefits, the department’s inspector general’s office said on Monday.

Without improvements, the VA could make unsupported payments to veterans totaling about $371 million over the next five years for claims of 100-percent disability alone, said Linda Halliday, an assistant in-

spector general.

The IG’s office also found widespread problems at VA regional offices in Philadelphia and Baltimore, including mail bins full of disability claims and associated evidence that had not been electronically scanned for three years.

Spot inspections revealed that VA also made errors in one in four claims involving traumatic brain injury, Halliday told the House Veterans Affairs Committee in prepared testimony. The Associated Press obtained a copy of her testimony in advance of the panel’s hearing Monday night.

“Improved financial stewardship at the agency

is needed,” Halliday said.

“More attention is critical to minimize the financial risk of making inaccurate benefit payments.”

Special initiatives designed to remove older claims and speed processing of new claims are worthwhile, Halliday said, but in some cases they “have had an adverse impact on other workload areas such as appeals management and benefits reductions.”

The VA used the hearing to claim “tremendous progress” in reducing a disability claims backlog that reached about 611,000 in March 2013.

The backlog is now about 275,000 — a 55 percent decrease from the peak, said

Allison Hickey, undersecretary for benefits at the VA. Last year, the Veterans Benefits Administration completed a record 1.2 million disability rating claims, Hickey said, and the agency is on track to complete more than 1.3 million rating claims this year. More than 90 percent of the claims are being processed electronically, she said.

The VA has long struggled to cope with disability claims. The backlog had intensified in recent years as more solders returned from Iraq and Afghanistan, and as the VA made it easier for Vietnam-era veterans to get disability

compensation stemming from exposure to Agent Orange.

The VA has set a goal to process all claims within 125 days at 98 percent accuracy in 2015, but so far has fallen far short. The agency now processes most claims within 154 days at a 90-percent accuracy rate, compared with an accuracy rate of 86 percent three years ago, Hickey said. At one point, veterans were forced to wait an average nine to 10 months for their disability claims to be processed.

“It has never been acceptable to VA ... that our veterans are experiencing long delays in receiving the benefits they have earned

and deserve,” Hickey said.

She said the department has spent the past four years redesigning and streamlining the way it delivers benefits and services.

Halliday, however, said her investigators have found numerous problem in handling VA benefits, including faulty claims processing that “increases the risk of improper payments to veterans and their families.”

Inspectors surveying Philadelphia’s VA benefits center in June found mail bins brimming with claims and associated evidence dating to 2011 that had not been electronically scanned, she said.

Jails struggle to deal with alarming number of mentally ill inmates

By Adam Geller Associated Press

Chicago— The numbers, posted daily on the Cook County sheriff’s website, would be alarming at an urgent care clinic, let alone a jail: On a Wednesday, 36 percent of all new arrivals report having a mental illness. On a Friday, it’s 54 percent.

But inside the razor wire framing the 96-acre compound, the faces and voices of the newly arrested confirm its accidental role as Chicago’s treatment center of last resort for people with serious mental illnesses. It’s a job thrust on many of the nation’s 3,300 local jails, and like them, it is awash in a tide of bookings and releases that make it particularly unsuited for the task.

Peering through the chain link of an intake area holding pen, a 33-year-old

man wrapped in a navy varsity jacket leans toward clinical social worker Elli Petacque Montgomery, his bulging eyes a clue that something’s not right.

“They say I got bipolar, that’s all,” he says.

“OK, are you taking your meds?” she asks.

“When I can get them.”

“I’m down here every day,” says Montgomery, deputy director of the sheriff’s office of mental health policy. “Every morning I hear this.”

The Cook County Jail, with more than 10,600 inmates, is one of the country’s largest single-site jails.

But it is not unique. From big cities to rural counties, jails have seen a rise in the number of inmates with serious mental illnesses, most of them arrested for nonviolent crimes.

Unlike prisons — where inmates serve extended sentences — jails hold those

U.S. jails hold about 731,000 people, less than half the 1.6 million in state and federal prisons.

But last year, jails booked in

11.7 million people — more than 19 times the number of new inmates arriving at prisons.

The revolving door greatly complicates the task of screening for mental

illness, managing medications, providing care and ensuring inmate safety.

“Jails are churning people,” says Henry J. Steadman, a former New York state mental health official and consultant to government agencies across the country on how courts and correctional facilities deal with people with mental illnesses. “You can do things in prison, in terms of treatment and getting to know people, that is very difficult to do in a jail because of that constant movement.”

Experts have pointed to rising numbers of inmates with mental illnesses since the 1970s, not long after states began closing psychiatric hospitals without following through on promises to create and sustain comprehensive community treatment programs.

But as the number of those with serious mental illnesses has climbed or sur-

passed 20 percent in some jails, many have struggled to keep up, sometimes putting inmates in jeopardy.

The Associated Press has reported that at least nine of the 11 suicides in New York City jails over the past five years came after operators failed to follow safeguards designed to prevent self-harm by inmates. In one case, a mentally ill man hanged himself from a pipe on his third attempt after orders to put him on 24-hour watch were apparently ignored.

The AP’s investigation into the deaths of two mentally ill inmates at the city’s Rikers Island jail complex — one who essentially baked to death in a 101-degree cell in February and the other who sexually mutilated himself last fall — have prompted oversight hearings and promises of reform.

Tax coordination It may not make a difference, but city, county and school officials should at least make the effort to get together and discuss their combined impact on local taxpayers.

W

hen local taxing units are facing tough financial choices and tax decisions, it becomes even more important for them to work together to try to lessen the impact of those decisions on local taxpayers.

The Lawrence City Commission is looking at a budget that calls for a 1.85mill increase in the city’s property tax levy. That increase is needed for a variety of reasons, including the need to boost pension fund contributions. It also includes increased funds to operate the new Lawrence Public Library and other new initiatives of city government such as a new director of arts and culture and personnel for the city’s new rental registration program. The 2015 city budget funds nine new positions. That seems like a lot for a city with a relatively stable population and tax base.

On top of the mill-levy increase for the budget, city residents also will face higher rates for water, sewer and trash service and may be asked to approve an additional property tax increase to fund a new police station.

On the county side, commissioners are looking at the largest property tax increase in more than two decades: 3.86 mills. Compared with the city, more of the county’s increase is driven by revenue reductions spurred by actions at the state level. Key among those is the loss of the mortgage registration tax, which will be phased out over five years. The fact that the county collected significantly less mortgage tax revenue than expected this year, created an additional budget hole. The state also is requiring the county to increase its pension contributions; expenses at the Douglas County Jail are rising; and more responsibility for funding local mental health services is being pushed from the state to the county level.

So local taxpayers already are looking at a property increase of 5.71 mills, and the Lawrence school district has not yet announced its mill-levy projections. District officials promised they could maintain a flat mill levy despite approval of a $92.5 million bond issue in April 2013, but it remains to be seen whether the loss of some state funding for next year will make that impossible.

Each of these governmental units no doubt sees its own tax proposal as necessary, but local taxpayers have to wonder whether the three units could work together to help mitigate the size of the tax increase that is heading down the pike. Leaders of the city, county and school board have been meeting only on a sporadic basis, and there is little, if any, coordination on services, taxes or spending. Each group has its problems and/or priorities, but maybe, if they put their heads together, they could come up with some creative strategies to cut or at least spread out the expenses being dumped on local taxpayers.

It would be nice if the city, county and school district could at least get together to discuss their combined wants/ needs before the bill for all that spending gets totaled up on local property tax bills.

Ukraine is foreign policy bright spot I’ve got some foreign policy good news. Really.

Never mind that U.S. foreign policy appears irrelevant in Gaza, spineless in Syria, irresponsible in Iraq and grossly stupid in Germany (whoever OK’d our dumb spy efforts there should be fired).

There is one important country where U.S. efforts may yet achieve a positive outcome. I’m talking about Ukraine, where Russia’s Vladimir Putin has just blinked in his efforts to dismantle the country — in large part because Western sanctions (even mild ones) jeopardized his weak economy.

“In a world where everything is going to hell, this is a place where something is working,” says Adrian Karatnycky, a Ukraine expert at the Atlantic Council who just returned from Kiev. “If the United States is looking to reverse a tide of failures, Ukraine is one place where there is a possibility of success.”

Last week, the revamped Ukrainian military took back the key town of Slovyansk, which had been occupied by Russian-backed separatists.

Ukraine has now recaptured around half of the territory that was once held by the rebels in eastern Ukraine, who have pulled back to the two large cities of Donetsk and Luhansk.

So President Barack Obama has gotten lucky. He has a smart partner in Poroshenko, even as Putin is retreating.

tion remains critical. The Kiev government doesn’t want to bomb Donetsk and Luhansk and jeopardize civilians. Putin is still playing a double game, pretending to compromise at peace talks with Ukraine, France and Germany, while failing to force Russia’s separatist proxies to agree to a ceasefire. New sanctions are needed to persuade Putin to end Russia’s proxy war in Ukraine.

Yet the Ukraine situa- would be shattered. That

is the Pandora’s box Putin opened when he sent Russian troops into Ukraine.

The Russian leader has spoken longingly of re-creating the 18th-century Russian empire, which would require Russia to annex large swaths of southern Ukraine north of the Black Sea. He borrowed ideas from the ultranationalist philosopher Alexander Dugin, who advocated forming a Eurasian Union (including Ukraine) that would work to undermine NATO and the European Union. Toward that end, Putin cozied up to Europe’s rising roster of nationalist parties, some of them neofascist (neofascists don’t seem to bother him when he thinks they are useful for his ends).

Ukraine turned the tide Putin’s ultranationalist fantasies present a real threat to Europe. Yet, in a feat worthy of Houdini, Ukraine helped turn a possible disaster into potential good news.

Despite Russia’s military and economic blackmail, Kiev held free elections and chose a highly competent president, a billionaire who’d made his fortune by building a confectionary empire. Poroshenko rallied the country and rebuilt his tattered military with help from thousands of civic activists who raised funds and volunteered to fight. He has offered eastern Ukraine Russian-language rights and a huge amount of decentralized power — the very things that Putin demands but falsely claims that Kiev denies.

Another piece of good news: Putin overreached economically.

Despite his country’s oil wealth, the Russian leader’s mismanagement and the country’s staggering corruption have prevented Russia from reaching a fraction of its potential. With an economy whose size hovers between that of the Netherlands and Italy, Putin could

not afford a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Moreover, his business elite warned him that even limited sanctions have done serious damage to the economy.

The final piece of good news: Putin’s proxies couldn’t rally the Ukrainians, even ethnic Russians in the east who distrust Kiev.

That’s because so many of the rebels either came from Russia (or Chechnya) or were disaffected losers who didn’t represent the communities in which they lived.

Moreover, despite Moscow’s denials, key rebel leaders have been revealed as Russian intelligence agents.

Muscovite Igor Strelkov, the current “rebel” leader in Donetsk, has admitted he served in the FSB, the KGB’s successor organization, until a year ago. Western governments say he is controlled

by Russia’s military intelligence. Other separatist leaders are also linked to Moscow, while Russian fighters and heavy weapons have poured across the border into Ukraine.

U.S. has opportunity So President Barack Obama has gotten lucky. He has a smart partner in Poroshenko, even as Putin is retreating. This is the moment to press Putin to pull back the Strelkovs and broker a real cease-fire, or face tougher sanctions. If Europe won’t join, then Washington should go forward unilaterally. (Another piece of luck: Obama has support for tougher sanctions on both sides of the congressional aisle.)

“Circumstances have given the White House a chance at a do-over, a chance to reassert the inviolability of borders,” says Karatnycky. Given his rash of foreign policy stumbles, Obama would be foolish to pass up that chance. ­— Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial-board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

To the editor: I’m a senior citizen dependent on the buses. I sold my car last year. In the past, I have had as much as an hour between buses and avoided using the buses. Now the bus service is better than it has ever been. Every bus goes to Seventh and Vermont and there is no layover time.

I thought that was a brilliant idea. Going the other direction, the bus takes me everywhere I need to go. If it ain’t broke, PLEASE don’t fix it. How could you get anywhere from 21st and Iowa?

Egypt proposes cease-fire between Israel, Hamas Egypt’s Foreign Ministry announced the threestep plan starting at 9 a.m. with a cease-fire to go into effect within 12 hours of “unconditional acceptance” by the two sides.

That would be followed by the opening of Gaza’s border crossings and talks in Cairo between the sides within two days, according to the statement.

Gaza’s crossings should be opened for people and goods “once the security situation becomes stable,” according to a copy of the proposal obtained by The Associated Press.

Israel launched the offensive July 8, saying it was a response to weeks of heavy rocket fire out of Hamas-ruled Gaza. The Health Ministry in Gaza said 185 people, including dozens of civilians, have been killed, and more than 1,000 people wounded.

There have been no Israelis killed, although several have been wounded

U.S. and Iran press nuclear talks

Ebola crisis in West Church of England to Africa deepens allow female bishops

Vienna — The top U.S. and Iranian diplomats searched Monday for a breakthrough in nuclear talks, their efforts complicated by crises across the Middle East and beyond that have Washington and Tehran aligned in some places but often opposed.

The state of U.S.-Iranian relations was adding a new wrinkle to the long negotiation aimed at curbing the Islamic Kerry republic’s uranium and plutonium programs.

While the two sides are arguably fighting proxy wars in Israel, Gaza and Syria, they’re talking cooperation in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And, perhaps in a first, the nuclear matter is battling for full attention.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif spoke for about two hours around midday Monday, the second day of talks in Vienna. They gathered again in the afternoon, hoping to make progress before Sunday’s initial deadline for a comprehensive nuclear agreement. An extension of the deadline is possible, though there are opponents of that idea on both sides.

Dakar, Senegal — Deep in the forests of southern Guinea, the first victims fell ill with high fevers. People assumed it was the perennial killer malaria and had no reason to fear touching the bodies, as is the custom in traditional funerals.

Some desperate relatives brought their loved ones to the distant capital in search of better medical care, unknowingly spreading what ultimately was discovered to be Ebola, one of the world’s most deadly diseases.

Ebola, a hemorrhagic fever that can cause its victims to bleed from the ears and nose, had never before been seen in this part of West Africa where medical clinics are few and far between. The disease has turned up in at least two other countries — Liberia and Sierra Leone — and 539 deaths have been attributed to the outbreak that is now the largest on record.

The key to halting Ebola is isolating the sick, but fear and panic have sent some patients into hiding, complicating efforts to stop its spread. Ebola has reached the capitals of all three countries, and the World Health Organization reported 44 new cases including 21 deaths on Friday.

London — The Church of England ended one of its longest and most divisive disputes Monday with an overwhelming vote in favor of allowing women to become bishops.

The church’s national assembly, known as the General Synod, voted for the historic measure, reaching the required two-thirds majority in each of its three different houses. In total, 351 members of the three houses approved of the move. Only 72 voted against and 10 abstained.

ArchWelby bishop of Canterbury Justin Welby said the long-awaited change marks the completion of a process that started more than 20 years ago with the ordination of women as priests. He called for tolerance and love for those traditionalists who disagree with the decision.

British Prime Minister David Cameron called it a “great day for the Church and for equality.”

Opponents argued that allowing women into such a senior position in the church goes against the Bible. Others warned that the church should not be guided by secular ethics.

Jerusalem — Egypt presented a cease-fire plan Monday to end a week of heavy fighting between Israel and Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip that has left at least 185 people dead, and both sides said they were seriously considering the proposal.

The late-night offer by Egypt marked the first sign of a breakthrough in international efforts to end the conflict.

Hamas’ top leader in Gaza confirmed there was “diplomatic movement,” while Israel’s policy-making Security Cabinet was set to discuss the proposal early Tuesday. Arab foreign ministers discussed the plan Monday night at an emergency meeting in Cairo, and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was expected in the region Tuesday.

by rocket shrapnel, including two sisters, ages 11 and 13, who were seriously hurt Monday. Ahead of the Egyptian announcement, there appeared to be no slowdown in the fighting, with Hamas for the first time launching an unmanned drone into Israeli airspace that was shot down.

The violence followed the kidnappings and killings of three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank last month, as well as the subsequent kidnapping and killing of a Palestinian teenager in an apparent revenge attack, along with Israeli raids against Hamas militants and infrastructure in the West Bank.

Israeli officials have said the goal of the military campaign is to restore quiet to Israel’s south, which has absorbed hundreds of rocket strikes, and that any cease-fire would have to include guarantees of an extended period of calm.

Growing in blink of an eye

TOP: EARL NEHRING, OF LAWRENCE, was the primary caregiver for his wife several years ago, and he found assistance through the caregivers support group at the Lawrence Senior Center. After his wife’s death, he continues to attend the group to support others who are now caregivers. ABOVE: CHUCK KELLY, 74, gives his wife, Barbara, 76, a smile.

Support group cares for those who give of themselves

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @gilesbruce

Baldwin City — “Hey, hey, hey,� Barbara Kelly said, signaling that she was ready to eat.

Her husband, Chuck, tucked a napkin into the neck of her shirt. He mixed her some chocolate milk. After a nurse brought over a plate of pureed carrots and potatoes, he started spooning them into her mouth. “Doesn’t that look

appetizing?� he said. “Mmm.�

It’s a routine Chuck has grown used to. Since his wife’s move to the Baldwin Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center last September, he has been feeding her supper a couple times a week.

But in the years prior to that, he cared for her at their Lawrence home, where she might still be, had an infection not caused her to be hospitalized.

That’s when he first found out his wife had dementia. Be-

fore that, he just thought she just getting old and senile. But doctors recommended that he place in her a care facility.

What if they hadn’t, he now wonders? Would he have accidentally fed her the wrong thing or not enough? Would she have hurt herself? Would he have eventually taken matters into his own hands, like the Lawrence man who killed his wife last year because of her deteriorating health?

Chuck says he now ponders

these questions regularly, and wonders how many other seniors are out there who haven’t had the kind of intervention that may have saved his wife’s life.

Barbara grabbed the silverware of the woman sitting next to her. “That’s our neighbor’s,� he said, taking it back.

When she reached for them a few minutes later, he again corrected her. “Those are Mable’s,� he said, displaying Please see CARE, page 2B

KU Hospital now implanting nonsurgical pacemakers

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @gilesbruce

Kansas University Hospital recently began implanting nonsurgical pacemakers that experts say cut down on procedure and recovery time, leave patients without visible scars or lumps, and reduce the risk of infection. “This truly ‌ is a paradigm shift in our ability to pace the heart in a much better way than what

we’ve done in the past five to six decades,� said Dhanunjaya Lakkireddy, the electrophysiologist at KU Hospital who implanted the first device in June, as part of a clinical trial.

KU Hospital is the first hospital in the region, and one of only about 50 in the United States and Canada, to offer the procedure, which is for people whose heart rate is too slow.

The devices, which are about one-tenth the

size of regular pacemakers, are implanted through a vein in the leg then, with a steerable catheter, screwed directly into the heart.

The procedure takes about half as long as implanting a traditional pacemaker, while the recovery process is about two days compared to one or two weeks. More importantly, Lakkireddy said, the devices have the potential to significantly cut down on

pacemaker-related infections.

And with traditional pacemakers, there is wear and tear on the wires, or leads, which eventually need to be replaced. The new devices don’t contain leads.

For now, the technology is limited to single-chamber pacemakers, which make up about a quarter of pacemaker patients. But Lakkireddy believes that devices covering multiple chambers, as well as lead-

less cardiac defibrillators, are only a matter of a few years away.

The price of the highertech devices is slighter more than the traditional ones, but Lakkireddy thinks the savings will happen in the long run. “If you can minimize the rates of infection, rehospitalization, repeat procedures for lead extractions and the number of days of work lost in the process, I think this is a definite winner, all in all,� he said.

Babies grow fast.

That point seems pretty apparent, but when you’re around your daughter every day, like I am, it can sometimes be difficult to notice. “Is she getting bigger?� her mother asked on a recent day. She’s around our daughter more than I am, so I forgave her for posing such an obvious question. For me, it seems like every time I go to work my little girl gains a pound.

People tried to explain this growth spurt to me back all those many months back, when my kiddo was just a red-faced, shriveled-up newborn. I had heard that babies triple their birth weight in the first year.

But it’s hard to comprehend until you actually experience it.

After about the sixth month, things just took off: Eating. Sitting up.

Crawling. In fact, my daughter is already twice as big as she was in this photo and happily married (well, not “in fact.�)

Accompanying this growth spurt was a burst in the number of activities she could do.

One recent morning I awoke to find her awake and standing up in her crib, staring back at me.

Another day, she was sitting on the floor in front of me, and when I looked away for a brief moment she was on the other side of the room. (Did she just teleport over there?) It’s fair to say we no longer have anything on the ground that can be tipped over.

As a new parent, you quickly find out that much of the advice you get from friends and family members is true.

Like when they tell you to appreciate the time when your baby can’t get around on her own. Well, Please see DADDY, page 2B

Care CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

the monk-like patience of someone who’s been doing this for a while.

Support group helps To deal with this emotional roller coaster, Chuck Kelly has turned to the caregivers support group held twice a month at the Lawrence Senior Center. The group is made up of current and former caregivers who share their experiences about topics like how to take away your loved one’s car keys, pick the right nursing home and dealing with loneliness.

Support systems like this one should become even more critical in future years, with the retiring baby boomer population and increasing number of dementia diagnoses. Dementia is already the most common reason people seek out the local meeting.

Earl Nehring, a retired Kansas University political science professor, started attending the group in 2001, when he was caring for his wife, Harriet, who had dementia. Even after her death six years later, he kept going to the meetings. “Hopefully those who have been through the experience can provide a little moral support and practical advice,� said Nehring, who is a spry 94.

Janet Ikenberry, the Douglas County Senior Services staffer who leads the meetings, said the group has so many longtime members, people who are no longer caregivers themselves, makes it unique. “The group has always felt there’s real value for those people continuing to attend to share their information,� she said.

Ikenberry said some of the major lessons to come from the group are that caregivers must watch out for their own physical and mental health while caring for a loved one, and that whatever emotions they’re feeling are OK. “The main theme is to be gentle with yourself,� she said. “You do the best you can every day, and some days are better than others. Caregiving is such a tough job, but it’s done out of love and commitment.�

Not just couples The group isn’t just made up of people who

care for their spouses; there are also those caring for adult children or elderly parents.

Marilyn Roy, 63, of Lawrence, is now the primary caregiver for her mother who has Parkinson’s disease. She often gets frustrated when her mother rebuffs her assistance.

For example, she once replaced her mother’s microwave, which had become old and unsafe, with a new one, putting the old appliance in her basement.

When Roy’s mom found out, she gave away the new microwave and put the old one back in its place. “I needed emotional support because my mother was just rejecting everything, right and left,� Roy said. “I came to find out it’s pretty typical among the older folks that are set in their ways and suddenly has changes happen like this.�

Christine Adams, a 57-year-old gallery assistant from Topeka, says she started going to the meeting several months ago when she was feeling

The caregivers support group meets from 2:15 to 3:45 p.m. the first and third Mondays of every month at the Lawrence Senior Center, 745 Vermont St. “low and beaten down, depressed.� A few years earlier, she found out her mother had dementia — and that she would become her caregiver. She studied up on the disease, researched nursing homes and took over her mom’s financial affairs. Then one day, her mother no longer knew who she was. Adams was feeling overwhelmed. “The group helps me tremendously,�

Adams said. “I get to talk to people who understand and have been or are going through this. They listen and encourage me.�

‘You’re just lost’ All these years later, Chuck Kelly still can’t be-

After the doctors recommend she enter a care facility, Kelly called nursing homes but most wouldn’t accept her since the couple didn’t have long-term-care insurance. He finally found Baldwin Healthcare and Rehabilitation, which referred him to a Lawrence attorney who helped him figure out how to pay for his wife’s care. The lawyer then told him about the local caregivers support group. If not for that chain of events, Kelly would likely still be in the dark about all of these issues.

The fellow group members help Kelly deal with the emotions of having a spouse who is fading away, and the loneliness that comes with it. “I think the hardest part is at night. All of a sudden, you look over at that chair and she’s not there,� said Kelly, 74. “She’s gone, but she’s not gone.

You can’t grieve. It’s like you’re in limbo. I’d like to go on that Oregon Trail, but I can’t go and leave

her here. I can’t go on and check the sports bars because I’m still married and have a wife.�

At the Baldwin City nursing home, it was time for dessert. “Do you want some of these?� Chuck said. “I think they’re peaches.� “OK,� said Barbara, whose speech was mostly nonsensical or inaudible during the recent visit. She started trying to scoop the peaches herself. “Hold on a minute, hold on,� Chuck said, grabbing the spoon from her.

Barbara shrugged and rolled her eyes, like many a wife before her has to her husband.

She then reached for her chocolate milk. He handed it to her. “Oh, thank you,� she said, as her husband of 56 years kissed and rubbed her hand. “We had a good time in life, huh?� he asked her, not expecting a response. “A beautiful, beautiful life.�

that time for me has officially ended.

At first, my baby would sit in her crib or car seat and cry if she was hungry or needed her diaper changed.

Now, if she needs something, she’ll crawl up to me, pull herself up by my pant leg and stand in front of me, yelling, until I meet her demand.

And until you have a baby, you’ll never know how fast your reflexes truly are. Say you and your little one are sitting on the couch together: You might divert your attention elsewhere momentarily, but as soon as she gets too close to the edge you will scoop her up with the speed of the world’s fastest pickpocket.

So if you’re the parent of a newborn, get ready for rapid-fire growth at any moment. If you have already entered that phase, you have officially given up extended periods of sitting. But look at the bright side: At least you’re no longer a couch potato. Crawling babies whip you into shape real fast.

During a stint in the military, he traveled to Boston, where he met his future wife at a night club. Both of them loved to dance. They married, even though she was several years older.

They moved around the country because of his job as a lineman, eventually settling in Lawrence.

In recent years, as he cared for his wife at home, he believed her diminishing mental capacity and increasing anger were a result of old age.

It was frustrating, but he had no idea what his options were, or whether any even existed. “You’re just lost,� he said. “You want to do something, but you don’t know where to turn to, who to ask.�

Her condition continued to regress. He thought he was doing what was best for her — until he found out he wasn’t.

Allow gaming in small doses Dear Dr. Wes & Kendra: We’re deciding how to handle screen time for our sons, especially video games. They don’t seem very interested in social media yet. You did a column a few months ago about how badly boys are doing in our society now, and we wondered if you think gaming plays a role in that.

Kendra: Because video game interaction is by definition not personto-person, young teens may not develop social and communication skills needed to succeed. However, gaming isn’t solely to blame for the direction boys in my generation are moving.

My friends, both male and female, and I recently realized that girls are typically the ones to plan social events, especially during the summertime.

While a summer exclusively socializing isn’t entirely beneficial for either gender, I see it as more productive than one spent in a basement playing video games.

Speaking as a girl who actually enjoys gaming, I do understand the feeling of accomplishment in finishing a certain level or “grok-ing” (mastering) a game. But as someone working two summer internships, I feel far more accomplished after finishing a project my boss has assigned me to do.

Although your sons may not be old enough to get payroll jobs, they may find work opportunities in the neighborhood or in unpaid volunteer positions. Even if they just volunteer at a nonprofit, or mow lawns or do chores a few hours each week, those are hours not spent staring at a screen. The goal for this season should be to allow teens a balance of productivity, socialization and lazy time. (It is summer, after all.)

So, while I believe gaming is likely not the sole cause of lackluster boys in today’s society,

gaming, but they don’t adjust their lives around it as boys often do. While many girls are addicted to Tumblr, Instagram and other social media, they seem more able to disconnect in order to do what needs to be done, just as Kendra describes.

Moreover, girl-culture hasn’t been modified by these new technologies in the same way boyculture has. Yes, girls engage in social media I think excessive time bullying, and many seem spent doing anything that permanently attached isn’t productive is a bad to their tiny smartphone idea for young people, keyboards, but consiseven during their time tently when they get to out of school. college or trade school, Wes: I’ve changed my those obsessions either views on this topic a lot moderate or become useover the last year.

NBA STAR LEBRON JAMES PLAYS BASKETBALL with high school athletes during the LeBron James Skills Academy on Wednesday in Las Vegas. College athletes, including Kansas University’s Perry Ellis and Kelly Oubre, were also invited to the camp.

Ellis teams with James, faces top talent at camp

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University junior forward Perry Ellis, who was running the court as a teammate of future Hall of Famer LeBron James in a game at James’ skills camp last week in Las Vegas, knew what to do after accepting a flashy pass from the Cleveland Cavaliers’ phenom.

Convert.

“He threw a behind-theback pass. I was on the wing.

I hit a jump shot. That was fun,” Ellis said Monday in Allen Fieldhouse.

“He (James) told me ‘good job’ out there. It was good.”

Ellis, who along with KU teammate Kelly Oubre was an invited guest at the 2014 LeBron camp, had been up close and personal with James one other time.

“I went to the camp in high school.

I remember in high Ellis school being so nervous,” Wichita Heights grad Ellis said. “There were a lot more players, 100 or so high school players thrown on teams. I’ve grown a lot. There were less

players (30 college invitees as well as 80 high schoolers).

I’ve gotten more mature. I was a lot more comfortable.”

Ellis said he was granted no inside information regarding James’ decision last week to leave the Miami Heat for the Cavaliers in free agency.

“Honestly, it was pretty quiet. There wasn’t much commotion about it,” Ellis said. “He wasn’t making a big deal about it. He was trying to work with the campers. It was a quiet deal out there.”

Ellis, who also attended the Nike big man camp in June in New Jersey, played a lot of small forward at the LeBron camp.

“I would say it was a challenge. There were a lot of wings and guards there,” the 6-foot-8 Ellis said, indicating West Virginia’s Juwan Staten, Iowa State’s Georges Niang and Texas’ Isaiah Taylor all attended.

“I had to get out there and guard those guys a lot, which will help me, and I need to learn to do that.

That was a big part of it for me, confidence. It’s definitely a confidence-booster going to these camps. Competing with all these guys, it definitely helps you out mentally,” Ellis said.

Three-time bowl champ Stuckey believes KU on rise

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Former Kansas University standout Darrell Stuckey likes what he’s seen of the 2014 KU football team.

“I’ve been working out with them, actually,” Stuckey said during a break at his youth camp on Saturday at Free State High. “I had an opportunity to speak to them, and it was phenomenal. They’ve been working hard all offseason, and

they’re willing to do what it takes to win, and they have to have that vision to get there and to all buy in and actually get to know each other, beyond football, because it makes you work that much harder. It makes you more willing, as a player and a teammate, to do what it takes to win.”

Although he has limited knowledge of the current KU roster and coaching staff, Stuckey said the state of the program now re-

minds him an awful lot of what he walked into prior to the 2005 season.

Then-KU coach Mark Mangino and the Jayhawks broke through in 2003 by landing a spot in the Tangerine Bowl, where Stuckey’s current teammate, San Diego quarterback Phillip Rivers, led North Carolina State to a rout of the Jayhawks.

“I tell him all the time, ‘That’s wrong what you did to my boys,’” Stuckey joked.

“But at that point, we were just happy to be there. After that, when we went to the Fort Worth Bowl (2005), we learned from that, and we went there to win.”

The Fort Worth Bowl victory — 42-13 over Houston — was the first of three bowl wins for Stuckey during his time as a Jayhawk.

COMMENTARY

Tonight, the Minnesota Twins are hosting the All-Star Game for the third time. The first time they did, in 1965, the National League squad represented quite possibly the most talented team in baseball history.

That ’65 NL team had Cubs outfielder Billy Williams, en route to 3,000 career hits; Cubs third baseman Ron Santo, a Gold Glover with a big bat; Reds outfielder Frank Robinson, soon to become the only man to win the MVP award in both leagues; and Roberto Clemente, the Pittsburgh rightfielder whose intensity still resonates.

All made the Hall of Fame.

And for the NL at the 1965 AllStar Game, all were reserves.

The NL starting lineup that day in Minnesota: Leadoff was Willie Mays, unsurpassed for all-around virtuosity. Second was Hank Aaron, who is first all-time in RBIs. Third was Willie Stargell, the fearsome left-handed Pittsburgh slugger.

Philadelphia third baseman Dick Allen hit cleanup, followed by Milwaukee Braves catcher Joe Torre and Cubs first baseman Ernie Banks. In the Nos. 7-8 spots were Reds second baseman Pete Rose and Dodgers shortstop Maury Wills.

Of those eight starting position players, all won the NL MVP at least once except Allen, who in his first year away from the NL won the AL MVP. Batting ninth and pitching (the DH was several years away) was Giants right-hander Juan Marichal, exotic with his sky-scraping leg kick and his bottomless array of pitches.

Marichal got the nod over Sandy Koufax and Bob Gibson.

In the first inning, Mays led off with a homer and Torre hit a two-run homer. Marichal singled in the second and scored on a two-run homer by Stargell.

Marichal handed a 5-0 lead for the fourth to Reds fireballer Jim Maloney, who twice that season held a team hitless for 10 innings.

The AL scored a run off Maloney in the fourth, then caught up against him in the fifth on two-out, two-run homers by the Tigers’ Dick McAuliffe and the Twins’ Harmon Killebrew. Metropolitan Stadium rocked as hometown hero Killebrew circled the bases on his tying drive.

Koufax kept the tie with a scoreless sixth. Santo drove in Mays in the seventh to put the NL ahead. The NL still led by a run when Phillies manager Gene Mauch summoned Gibson for the eighth.

With the NL ahead by a run, Gibson gave up a leadoff double in the ninth to Minnesota’s Tony Oliva. A sacrifice attempt was popped up.

Gibson then fanned Killebrew and the Yankees’ Joe Pepitone to save the 6-5 win.

This was the first All-Star Game for Rose, who came to symbolize the NL dominance in All-Star Games that extended into the 1980s. But the NL would never reassemble a galaxy as glittering as in 1965.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR BILL HANCOCK POSES with he College Football Playoff National Championship Trophy on Monday in Irving, Texas.

‘Piece of art’ awaits college football champ Irving, Texas — A rising gold footballshaped trophy will be the prize for the national champion in the new College Football Playoff.

College Football Playoff executive director Bill Hancock unveiled the more than 2-foothigh trophy Monday. Made from 24-karat gold, bronze and stainless steel, the bottom of the trophy is shaped like a football and rises to form an actual-sized ball at the top. There are four laces, reflective of the four teams that will make it to the playoffs.

When addressing the cost of the trophy, Hancock called it a “priceless one-of-a-kind piece of art.”

The trophy, which weighs about 35 pounds, is designed to be hoisted from its foot-high bronze base that weighs another 30 pounds.

Hancock took a selfie with the trophy sitting in its base, but said the first hoisting will be reserved for the winner of the first national championship game Jan. 12 in Arlington, Texas.

“It can be lifted out of the base and hoisted in quite an inspirational manner,” Hancock said.

The trophy will be taken to different locations before the season, including Los Angeles this week, and showcased at several college football games during the season.

OLYMPICS

Groundbreaker dies at 90 Albany, Ga. — The first black woman to win an Olympic gold medal, Alice Coachman Davis, has died at age 90 in south Georgia.

Davis’ daughter, Evelyn Jones, says her mother died early Monday morning in Albany.

Davis won Olympic gold in the high jump at the 1948 games in London. She was inducted into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame in 2004.

Davis attended Tuskegee University and won 25 national track and field championships — including 10 consecutive high jump titles.

She was the only American woman to win a gold medal at the 1948 games and retired at age 25 after winning Olympic gold.

TOUR DE FRANCE

Nibali back in yellow Plancher-Les-Mines, France — After just 10 stages, the two pre-race favorites have crashed out of the Tour de France. And Vincenzo Nibali is wasting little time in showing that he’s now the man to beat.

On Monday, the Italian narrowly dodged a spill by Alberto Contador that left the two-time Tour champion with a fractured shin. Nibali went on to barrel past a panting breakaway rider to win a fog-and-rain coated, up-and-down Stage 10 and recover the yellow jersey that he had lost only a day earlier.

It didn’t come easily.

“This was the hardest stage I’ve ever done in a Grand Tour, with seven climbs and so many crashes,” said Nibali.

Contador’s mishap has given this 101st edition of cycling’s greatest event a dubious distinction of being the first in recent memory to force out its two top stars to crash injuries. Five stages earlier, reigning champ Chris Froome quit because of a broken wrist and hand sustained in a string of spills.

As the race enters its first rest day on Tuesday, Nibali — who has already won the Span-

LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps

ish Vuelta and Italian Giro — looks on his way to winning his first Tour with just under two weeks to go.

When Stage 10 began, many race pundits — and Nibali himself — expected Contador to try to erase his 21⁄2 minute deficit to the Italian by attacking on the ride to the finish atop La Planche des Belles Filles ski resort. As FDJ.FR team manager Marc Madiot put it: “This is the day for Contador to put Nibali into trouble.”

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Georgia F Morris booted Atlanta — Georgia forward Brandon Morris has been kicked off the basketball team following his arrest on a marijuana charge.

The Athens-Clarke County Jail said Monday he was arrested early Sunday and later posted bond. He was charged with felony possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.

Morris was suspended for three games last season for a violation of team rules. Coach Mark Fox said on the team’s website that Morris has a “very clear understanding of our expectation. Unfortunately, I’ve had to dismiss him from our team.”

Morris, a junior, was set to return as one of four starters for a team that won 20 games last season before losing in the second round of the NIT to Louisiana Tech. He averaged 8.6 points and 3.4 rebounds.

SOCCER

Cup final sets TV record New York — Even without the home team involved, the World Cup final between Germany and Argentina set a television viewership record in the United States, capping a tournament that exceeded expectations for interest on both ESPN and Univision.

The monthlong World Cup also was responsible for more than 3 billion interactions on Facebook and 672 million messages on Twitter, the social media companies said Monday.

An estimated 26.5 million people in the U.S. watched Germany’s extra-time win Sunday afternoon, the Nielsen company said.

Ellis said he was most impressed with his camp roommate, Sam Dekker of Wisconsin.

“We got to talk some.

He did real well,” said Ellis, who would welcome playing on the perimeter some during his junior season at KU. “He’s definitely putting us (Ellis and Jamari Traylor) around the wing a lot more, to get the feel and see what our options are,” Ellis said of KU coach Bill Self.

Ellis, who will attend the Adidas Nations camp from July 31 to Aug. 4 in Los Angeles, said he hopes all this summer experience will translate to his junior season.

“I haven’t really thought about individual goals. I’m just focused on winning another Big 12 championship,” he said.

“Just keep working toward that, keep on thinking game by game, winning.”

ALL-STAR HOME RUN DERBY

Cespedes repeat winner Minneapolis (ap) — Oakland’s Yoenis Cespedes became the first repeat winner of the AllStar home run derby in 15 years, powering his way past Cincinnati’s Todd Frazier by a whopping 9-1 in the final round Monday night.

Ken Griffey Jr. took the title in 1998 and 1999.

With a serious, determined look on his face the whole time, Cespedes finished with 28 homers. That was four fewer than last year, when he beat Washington’s Bryce Harper 9-8 in the final round.

Cespedes saved his best for last, a 452-foot blast to the third deck above left field that officially measured as the longest of the night.

Athletics third base coach Mike Gallego again pitched to Cespedes, who went deep 32 times in last year’s derby at Citi Field in New York. Gallego’s arm looked nearly out of gas by the final round, which started after 10:30 p.m. local time.

WINNER YOENIS CESPEDES, OF THE OAKLAND ATHLETICS, HITS during the Home Run Derby on Monday in Minneapolis.

Cespedes topped Toronto’s Jose Bautista, and Frazier surprisingly beat Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton in the semifinals.

Bautista and Stanton each earned a bye to the semifinals under the new bracketed format, which gave each player seven outs and pitted the survivors from each side in the final round. Bautista went deep 10 times in the first round, keeping the fans in the second deck above left field on their toes, and Stanton hit six.

That was all, though.

After a long wait for his

next turn, Stanton put up a zero in the semifinals and let Frazier advance with only one.

Oh, but Stanton’s six were beauties.

One landed in the third deck above left field, about a half-dozen rows shy of the very top of the ballpark. Another reached the second deck above the center field batter’s eye, a place never touched by a ball during an actual game here.

Stanton has been credited with three of the 15 longest home runs in the majors this year, includ-

ALL-STAR GAME PREVIEW

Wainwright, Hernandez to start on mound tonight Minneapolis (ap) — Mike Matheny had quite the choice for the National League’s All-Star starter.

There was his own Adam Wainwright, the St. Louis Cardinals ace with a 12-4 record and a 1.83 ERA. And there was the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Clayton Kershaw, 11-2 with a 1.78 ERA and fresh off a 41-inning scoreless streak that ended last week.

He chose Wainwright, who will start tonight at Target Field against the Seattle Mariners’ Felix Hernandez.

“It’s going to be great catching them,” said Milwaukee’s Jonathan Lucroy, the NL starter behind the plate. “A lot more fun than facing them.”

When baseball’s elite met at Citi Field last year, NL batters managed just three hits in a 3-0 loss.

A year earlier in Kansas City, the AL had just six hits in an 8-0 defeat.

Never before had consecutive All-Star games ended in shutouts.

“Guys are throwing harder. Guys have more pitches,” said Philadelphia second baseman Chase Utley, making his sixth All-Star appearance and first since 2010.

The big league batting average is at a 42-year low. Strikeouts are at an all-time high.

Wainwright and Kershaw are on track to become the first pair of qualifying pitchers in one league with a sub2.00 ERA since the Mets’ Dwight Gooden and the Cardinals’ John Tudor in 1985 — the last time Minnesota hosted the AllStars.

“Aside from having the ability to win two World Series with the St. Louis Cardinals, I think this has to be one of the highlights of my baseball career to this point,” Wainwright said. “One of the coolest things I can say I did is to start a big league All-Star game.”

Kershaw understood Matheny’s decision.

“If I’m him, I’m probably going to pick Adam, too. It’s his guy and he had the best half,” Kershaw said.

Hernandez, the first Venezuela pitcher to start for the All-Stars,

also has sterling credentials: an 11-2 record with a 2.12 ERA. He described his task pretty simply: “Just throw zeros out there and get my team to win. That’s all I got to do,” he said.

Back in the great pitching era of the 1960s, the game was different. Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, Bob Gibson and Juan Marichal expected to finish what they started.

“You’re not getting three, four at-bats off of the starter unless you’re in trouble and you’re losing the game,” said Baltimore’s Matt Wieters, elected as a starting catcher but sidelined following elbow surgery. “I think for a while it was trying to get the starter out of the game so you can get to that fifth, sixth, seventh-inning guy. And now those fifth, sixth, seventh-inning guys are throwing upper 90s with a good breaking ball.”

In addition to pitchers, the spotlight will be

on New York Yankees captain Derek Jeter. The shortstop, who turned 40 last month, is playing his final season and was selected for his 14th AllStar game.

Yankees closer Mariano Rivera got an emotional sendoff last year, the All-Stars giving him a solo bow. When Rivera entered in the eighth inning all other players left him the field to himself.

Cal Ripken Jr. was given a tribute at the start of the 2001 game at Seattle’s Safeco Field when Alex Rodriguez told Ripken just before the first pitch to switch positions and move from third base to shortstop, where the Baltimore star spent most of his career. The 40-yearold Ripken then homered in the third inning.

And two years ago, Atlanta’s Chipper Jones was feted with a standing ovation at Kauffman Stadium when he pinch hit in the sixth inning and singled.

What will Jeter’s AllStar finale be like?

“I don’t go into things with expectations,” he

said. “I’m looking forward to playing the game.

I’ve pretty much stopped it right there.”

The game is being played in Minneapolis for the third time, following the NL’s 6-5 win at Metropolitan Stadium in 1965 and a dull 6-1 NL victory indoors at the Metrodome in 1985.

Oakland, a big leaguebest 59-36 at the break, has seven All-Stars for the first time since 1975.

The Athletics have some incentive for an AL victory; since 2003, the AllStar winner’s league gets to start the World Series at home, and 23 of the last 28 titles were won by teams scheduled to host four of a possible seven games.

“I don’t think you can ever underestimate the home-field advantage in a postseason,” said AL manager John Farrell, who led Boston to a sixgame win over St. Louis last year. “To have that final game potentially in your home ballpark, that goes a long way to affecting the outcome.”

The meal and exchanging of gifts is traditional in most families.
