Ever wander into your favorite tavern and wonder who might have a gun?

On July 1, a new law went into effect that made it easier for drinkers to carry guns into bars.

Under changes to the state’s concealed carry law, no longer does someone have to go through a permitting process and gun training to be able to put a gun in a jacket pocket or in a handbag

Topeka — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is proposing a new regulation that would allow his office to purge more than 30,000 incomplete voter registration applications, most of which are being held in suspense because those applying have not yet provided proof of U.S. citizenship.

A public hearing on the proposed change is scheduled for Sept.

2 in Topeka.

The proposed change deals with a law passed in 2011 that requires new voters in Kansas to show proof of U.S. Secretary of citizenship in order to State Kris register. The law took Kobach says effect in 2013, and it more than applied for the first 30,000 time in state and fedincomplete eral elections during voter last year’s mid-term applications are being held elections.

In a phone interview in suspense and should be Saturday, Kobach said the proposal is meant flushed. to save county election officials time and expense. He said there are people on the list who tried to register as far back as 2013, many of whom have since moved, but counties are told they need to continue sending reminders to those voters to submit their citizenship documents.

“Right now (the counties) can’t take them off that way,” Kobach said. “The way the regulations are structured now, they’re still sending (reminders) out to everybody on the list.”

Under the proposed change, voters would have 90 days after they file their applications to register to provide the required citizenship documents — either a birth certificate, U.S. passport, naturalization document or

“It is basic common sense,” Werner said. “It was a dangerous setback for public safety in Kansas.

Sgt. Kristen Dymacek, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman, said while the sheriff’s office supports the right of all citizens to have firearms, there are concerns that citizens carrying concealed weapons with minimal qualifications could be a safety risk.

“Under the new law, citizens are allowed to carry a concealed weapon without training, without any identification such as a concealed carry license, and without proper instruction on how to react if they have an encounter with law enforcement while carrying concealed,” Dymacek said. “This could lead to some potential safety issues for everyone involved.”

Robinson said the gun training is one more way to ensure that someone who shouldn’t have a gun doesn’t.

“If we feel that person doesn’t take safety seriously or has a bad attitude or can’t shoot, we had the right to say they can’t have the permit,” Robinson said.

Meanwhile in Lawrence, the bar industry says it will be keeping a watchful eye out for people carrying guns.

“I haven’t seen anyone carrying a gun, but certainly that doesn’t mean that they aren’t,” said Alisha Cronise, a bartender at Harbour Lights in downtown Lawrence.

Some bar owners said they had considered placing the signs at their establishments but were unsure of the proper process.

Eric Berman, who coowns the Jackpot Music Hall with his wife, said he would like to post a sign but he had recently read that the signs had to meet certain size requirements, and he didn’t know what those were.

“There are right signs and wrong signs,” Berman said. “I probably would if I knew where to purchase them.”

Patel Prashant, assistant manager of the Eighth Street Tap Room, also was aware of the new law, and said the bar’s policy was not to serve alcohol to people with guns.

“There are more guns in people’s hands today than there are in the military,” Prashant said. “Obviously we prefer not to have a rumble or tumble especially with guns. It’s never come down to that and hopefully it never will.”

there is almost nothing the security staff could do about it.

That’s because, at about the same time those security devices were being installed, the Kansas Legislature enacted new laws making them all but obsolete.

Today, it is perfectly legal for almost anyone in Kansas to carry concealed, loaded handguns in public and in most state-owned buildings. And one of the new laws enacted just this year says those people don’t need a permit or specific gun safety training to do it.

“The way the new law reads, you can carry

a concealed weapon in there as long as you meet state and federal standards,” said Capt.

Andy Dean, supervisor of the Capitol Police division within the Kansas Highway Patrol, which manages security at the Statehouse and other state office buildings in Topeka.

Rep. Steve Brunk, RWichita, who chairs the House Federal and State Affairs Committee, says the law is rooted in the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights of the Kansas Constitution, which afford citizens the right to bear arms as a matter of self defense.

“Criminal citizens, they don’t follow any restrictions, so the only people that we put restrictions on are the

law-abiding citizens that could be a deterrent to the crime,” he said.

Debate over body cams continues

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

As Kansas legislators re-examine whether to require police officers in the state to wear body cameras, Lawrence officials are weighing the benefits and drawbacks of implementing the technology at the Lawrence Police Department.

During the 2015 legislative session, Kansas lawmakers proposed requiring officers on pa-

trol to use body cameras, but identical bills in the House and Senate failed in committee. The Associated Press reported last week that the Joint Committee on Corrections and Juvenile Justice Oversight plans to look into the issue this summer and fall to possibly take up the proposed mandate again in 2016.

other document allowed under the law. After that, the application would be rejected and the voter would have to submit a new application in order to register.

That’s one of two changes Kobach’s office is proposing. A second change would provide guidance to state and local election officers about how to assess citizenship and identification documents for people whose names have changed because of marriage, divorce, change of gender or other reasons.

The 90-day requirement would be a significant change because under current practice, voters can submit the required documents — even by emailing a cellphone photo of them to their county election office — right up to Election Day, regardless of when they originally applied to register.

Kobach said the pro-

equipment, audio- and video-equipped interview rooms and portable audio stick recorders to record interactions with the public, Khatib said.

Neither the LPD nor the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office has body cameras, but the Kansas University Public Safety Office has been using the technology since August of last year.

At a city commission study session on July 20, officials discussed a city memorandum on body cameras that Khatib submitted to former City Manager David Corliss in February. In it, Khatib advised that while there are several benefits to body cameras, careful examination should be made of the effects the cameras could have on law enforcement.

The issue rose to national attention last year after the shooting death of an unarmed 18-yearold black man by a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo., drew outrage and criticism of the use of deadly police force. Khatib in May required all officers to read the U.S. Department of Justice’s report on the incident, and concluded that a major problem with the Ferguson Police Department was its poor relationship with the community.

In his memorandum, Khatib said having officers wear body cameras “can increase the quality of interaction with the public” and that residents who know they’re being recorded may be less likely to act aggressively

. posed 90 days is more generous than what’s offered by either of the other two states that have similar proof-ofcitizenship laws, Arizona and Georgia, which give applicants only 3045 days to complete their registrations.

Marge Ahrens, copresident of the League of Women Voters of Kansas, said that organization opposes the proof-of-citizenship law in concept, and it plans to oppose the proposed change.

“First of all, we do see proof of citizenship as a barrier to poor persons being able to vote,” she said. “The second thing is, we see the right to vote as very sacred, and it belongs to all citizens, and we stand for encouraging those citizens to vote. That’s what the league is all about, and that’s what it has been about since 1920.”

Ahrens said she obtained a recent list that shows 34,986 voter applications currently being held in suspense. Of those, she said, 87 percent, or slightly more

than 30,000, are being held because of the proof of citizenship law.

The remainder are incomplete for other reasons, such as being illegible or missing applicants’ signatures.

The proof-of-citizenship law was enacted in 2011 at the urging of Kobach, a Republican who had just been elected after running on a strong anti-illegal immigration platform. But it did not take effect until January 2013. The first state and national elections held in Kansas under the new law were last year’s midterm elections for Congress, governor, other statewide elected offices and the Kansas House of Representatives.

An analysis by the Journal-World showed that a few weeks before the November election, more than 23,000 wouldbe voters’ applications were being held “in suspense” because of the proof-of-citizenship requirement.

That analysis also showed the law had a disproportionate impact on young voters,

and voters who lived in low-income neighborhoods with large African-American populations. It also showed that unaffiliated voters made up the largest group of voters in suspense, while would-be Republican voters made up a disproportionately small share of the group.

Kobach has argued the law ensures that only those people who are legally entitled to vote can cast ballots, and that it prevents people who are not U.S. citizens from voting.

Another new law enacted this year gives Kobach’s office authority to prosecute election crimes. He has said he intends to begin such prosecutions next month.

Critics have argued instances of actual voter fraud are extremely rare in Kansas and do not justify blocking tens of thousands of registration applications.

toward officers. Additionally, they may help to “increase public trust and build confidence in officer accountability.”

But in Lawrence, that trust already exists, Khatib said. He wrote in the memorandum that because the LPD “has an excellent relationship with the community and court system,” the need for body cameras is not as urgent as it might be in other communities.

“It may be prudent to take a ‘wait and see’ approach before expending a considerable amount of additional funding on equipment and personnel only to have to change direction as technology, policies and laws continue to develop,” Khatib said.

In May, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom urged Kansas law enforcement to apply for a U.S. Department of Justice funding

program designed to help outfit officers with body cameras. The pilot partnership is part of President Barack Obama’s proposal to invest $75 million over three years to purchase 50,000 body cameras for law enforcement agencies.

But Khatib wrote that even if the city could find funding for the approximately $150,000 needed to purchase the cameras, there would likely be greater costs in the future. More funding would be needed for storage and additional personnel to work with the cameras, Khatib said, and it would likely cost another $150,000 every three to five years for technology replacements.

“The availability of startup funding such as grants do little to mitigate the true long-term costs,” Khatib said.

The police chief prof-

fered that perhaps those funds would be better utilized in other areas of law enforcement, such as hiring additional detectives or school resource officers.

“Body cam implementation should also be examined against what other service improvements could be realized with the same amount of funding,” Khatib said.

Still, Khatib conceded that the use of body cameras could have several benefits for keeping the peace in Lawrence. He said reviewing body camera footage could help the department by serving as a training aid for officers, or help the department assess a citizen complaint’s validity. Further, the tech-

BRIEFLY KBI: Man, 23, attacked officer

A 23-year-old Lawrence man was arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer and several other charges Friday evening.

About 7 p.m. Friday, Shaunte James Russell, who turned 23 on Saturday, was noticed driving erratically by Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents who were in the area of Sixth and Maine streets conducting an unrelated investigation, said Frank Papish, assistant director of the KBI. Russell reportedly used his vehicle toward an agent’s vehicle in an aggressive way, Papish said. During Russell’s arrest, the vehicle was searched and drugs were found, according to Papish. Russell’s 1-and-a-halfyear-old son also was in the vehicle.

nology could assist prosecutors by documenting events as they happen.

But along with those benefits could come problems, Khatib said. If people become used to the idea of expecting body camera footage, Khatib said, prosecutions could be hindered if technology malfunctions and jurors question the testimony of an officer who did not have footage available.

“This could negatively impact prosecution for no reason other than casting of doubt on the officer’s testimony due to the perception that anything missing must be due to nefariousness,” Khatib said.

Khatib also urged city officials to gauge officer acceptance of the tech-

He expressed concern that officers under constant surveillance via their body cameras may suffer added “stress and dissatisfaction” in that type of work environment.

As of now, there are no plans at the state level to force Kansas officers to wear the technology anytime soon. But Khatib wrote in his memorandum that as long as “expectations remain realistic and the limitations (of body camera usage) are understood,” body camera implementation could be successful.

Missing the mark Kansas officials shouldn’t be too quick to blame the messenger for inaccurate revenue estimates.

I

t can’t be an easy job to accurately estimate how much revenue a state will collect in a given time period — and that process must be even more difficult in a state like Kansas, whose tax policies have undergone significant change in a relatively short time.

During a recent press conference to outline additional spending cuts for the current fiscal year, Budget Director Shawn Sullivan didn’t seem particularly satisfied with the work of the state’s Consensus Estimating Group, which is responsible for predicting state revenue. In fact he said he planned to look at how other states handle their estimates and see how Kansas might improve its process.

His frustration is somewhat understandable. Over the last year, monthly tax collections have come up short of the group’s estimates 10 times and exceeded the estimates only twice. Some of the estimates were only slightly off, but in four months, revenues were at least $20 million below expectations. Because the revenue estimates are the official basis used by lawmakers when they are formulating the state budget, such shortfalls have a serious impact on the state’s bottom line, forcing the governor to cut expenditures or dip into state reserves.

Why has the Consensus Estimating Group had so much trouble getting it right? The official group is made up of representatives of the Division of the Budget, Department of Revenue and Legislative Research Department along with one economist each from Kansas University, Kansas State University and Wichita State University. The group evaluates a number of economic indicators in making their estimate. Are they misreading the data or being too optimistic in their predictions? Are they in denial over the actual effect of the huge income tax cuts?

Any of those could be true, but it also seems likely that significant shifts in the state’s tax structure has made it more difficult to make accurate estimates.

The traditional “three-legged stool” that spread state tax burdens fairly equally among property, sales and income taxes has been upset. Income taxes were cut; sales taxes were raised to try to take up the slack, and it’s understandable that such changes would alter revenues in ways that are difficult to predict.

It doesn’t hurt for Sullivan to look at what other states are doing and see if there are ways for the Kansas group to improve its accuracy, but state officials may also have to concede that new tax policies — not the tax estimators — are the primary source of the problem.

Broad support would benefit Iran deal Washington — Can an American president make big, historic changes in the country’s direction with a relatively narrow base of political support? That was the challenge President Obama faced when he pushed health care reform through Congress and it’s the same problem he faces now in trying to win support for a breakthrough nuclear deal with Iran.

Obama was confident and combative as he made his case this week on Iran. He delivered a powerful speech enumerating the virtues of the agreement. But he included some partisan lines that riled opponents (and some fence-sitters, too), and it’s questionable whether the speech, masterful as it was in analysis, will add any votes of support.

Iran is an issue on which Obama is so hot he’s combustible. It fuses the big foreign-policy themes of his presidency: the need to work with international partners and engage adversaries; the danger of an Iraq war “mindset” that prefers military solutions to diplomatic ones. Rarely has Obama seemed so convinced that he’s right and that the contrary view, as he put it Wednesday, “doesn’t make sense.”

This moral certainty powered his speech Wednesday at American University, chosen as a venue to evoke President John F. Kennedy’s famous address there that laid the foundations for detente with the Soviet Union.

Obama said he’s faced some

On the substance, I agree with Obama.

The agreement will provide clear, verifiable limits on Iran’s ability to build a nuclear weapon for at least 15 years.

Those who think more sanctions can gain a better deal are, as Obama said at AU, buying a ‘fantasy.’” tough decisions as president, but in this case the pros and cons are “not even close.”

enough votes to sustain a veto of a congressional vote of disapproval. But he would be wiser to seek a broader base, say by offering a package that lets Congress monitor implementation and verification of the pact.

History tells us that big diplomatic moves abroad work best when they have solid support at home, lest they founder like Woodrow Wilson’s idealistic plan for a League of Nations. But Obama starts from the perspective that in today’s hyper-polarized Washington, such a broad consensus is impossible.

“The degree of polarization that currently exists in Washington is such where I think it’s fair to say that if I presented a cure for cancer, getting legislation passed to move that forward would be a nail-biter,” Obama told a small group of journalists Wednesday afternoon after the AU speech. It was a funny line, but I also heard a cry of despair: The president is convinced he’s right about Iran, but equally convinced that the GOP majority in Congress won’t listen.

Critics seem to be speaking merely from “talking points,” he told us.

Obama was meeting journalists in the Roosevelt Room, one of the White House spaces that’s spooky with history.

A portrait shows “T.R.” on horseback, the American centurion. But on a table behind Obama was a sculpture that better conveyed his current predicament: It portrayed

a bison beset by howling wolves.

“I make it a policy not to anticipate failure,” Obama said sharply, fending off a question about whether war with Iran really was likely if Congress, despite all his arguments, rejects the Iran agreement. But then he went on for nearly 10 minutes to explain precisely why, if the agreement collapses, the U.S. will have no leverage other than military power.

Obama clearly sees the Iran deal as the defining foreignpolicy achievement of his presidency. His model isn’t just JFK’s search for detente with the Soviets, but President Richard Nixon’s trip to China. He talks the way leaders do when they think big and make a controversial decision with “hair on it,” as Obama put it. “When Nixon went to China,” Obama reminded us, “Mao was still in power. He had no idea how it was going to play out.”

Radiating from the face of this sometimes dry, distanced man was rare passion and conviction: Be bold. Engage. Take risks. Write history. “There’s no doubt that after six and a half years, I am much more confident in the assessments I make, and can probably see around the corners faster,” he said.

Yes, but can he bring the country with him? On a project as important as the Iran deal, it’s worth more of an effort to build broader political support.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Aug. 9, 1915: years “The monthly ago meeting of the IN 1915 Social Service League at the Hall at Vermont and Sixth listened to the visiting nurse’s report and made plans for the fall and winter work that is before it.... Much of the contents of the report it would not be advisable to make public. It is no secret, however, that the treasury of the League sadly needs replenishing.... The especial need at this juncture is of garments, especially shoes and stockings for children and other garments necessary to make them presentable and comfortable for school.”

PUBLIC FORUM

Hearing help To the editor: In Lawrence, Southwind theater is part of the Regal chain of movie theaters and has two captioning devices available for those of us with hearing loss: glasses or a small adjustable screen that fits in the cup holder. I did not know this until I attended the Hearing Loss Association of America convention in St. Louis this year, and Randy Smith, senior vice president of the Regal Entertainment Group received the National Access Award.

After returning home, I went to a movie performance at Southwind, and the system with the screen was easy to use and worked very well for me. I was surprised a week or so later to be in Salina, and their Art Cinema had the same device.

After years of trying to understand in movies and getting most of the information from someone else who was with me or then not going to movies at all unless it was a foreign film with open captioning, I finally felt like part of the audience and not just a spectator watching the action. Seeing these movies with provided captioning to me was a celebration of the recent 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Vicki Douglas, Lawrence

Misleading lead

that is probably a good thing. It has now included USA Today as an addition to your daily paper.

But I want to point out a glaring misrepresentation that is being made in the current orgy by many national news organizations about the candidacy of you-know-who.

National news organizations are blaring about the “incredible lead” that this candidate has, but really if you stop and think about it, since when does 25 percent (or so) of ANYTHING amount to a huge lead?

There are still many other candidates who have less amounts in the polls (and “polls” is a whole other subject) and as these other candidates fall by the wayside, as they must, who gets the other 75 percent of this support.?

I seriously doubt that the anointed clown will benefit from the downfall of all the others, but one must be aware that the opinion of the national news organizations that the anointed one is “way ahead” is simply an aberration and misuse of statistics. Mark Twain once said that there are three great misrepresentations: ”Lies, damned lies, and statistics.” Might be time to give some thoughtful consideration to this “Trump”et section of the national news sources.

Fred R. Whitehead Jr., Lawrence

Nuclear deterrence

To the editor: Fellow citizen Joe Douglas has reTo the editor: galed us with his incongruous world This newspaper has a policy to pret- view, including the claim that nuclety much report on local issues, except ar deterrence against the USSR (or for occasional national columnists and its successor state Russia) is an out-

dated model. I guess he didn’t get the memo from President Obama in the National Security Strategy, issued in February 2015. Namely, “No threat poses as grave a danger to our security and well-being as the potential use of nuclear weapons and materials by irresponsible states or terrorists.” Nobel Peace Laureate Obama goes on to declare, “As long as nuclear weapons exist, the United States must invest the resources necessary to maintain — without testing — a safe, secure, and effective nuclear deterrent that preserves strategic stability.”

Citizen Douglas and his personal freedoms are safe from Russian nuclear aggression due to the nuclear capabilities of our Navy and Air Force. On page 2 of the National Security Strategy, POTUS Obama states “we will prioritize efforts that address the top strategic risks to our interests.” “Catastrophic attack on the U.S. homeland” tops the current list of eight strategic risks.

Rather than protesting the abrupt end of World War II by nuclear attacks that on net saved more lives — Japanese and American — than were lost, Douglas might redirect his angst and focus upon Russian aggression from not-a-Nobel-Laureate Putin and the ongoing lack of transparency into the methods to monitor the compliance of Iran with the agreement to stop development of nuclear weapons there. Sound judgment characteristic of sanity is not displayed when one underestimates Russian aggression or overstates Iran’s peaceful motives.

“Building close relationships with my patients and their families is key for me.�

Political equation This year’s gun bill passed both chambers by wide, even bipartisan margins: 85-39 in the House; 31-8 in the Senate.

All four House members and both senators from Lawrence voted against the bill.

But some lawmakers say that’s not a reflection of how popular the issue is, but rather of the power of both the Kansas and National Rifle Associations in Kansas elections.

Today’s forecast, page 6C

Topeka — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is proposing a new regulation that would allow his office to purge more than 30,000 incomplete voter registration applications, most of which are being held in suspense because those applying have not yet provided proof of U.S. citizenship.

A public hearing on the proposed change is scheduled for Sept.

2 in Topeka.

The proposed change deals with a law passed in 2011 that requires new voters in Kansas to show proof of U.S. Secretary of citizenship in order to State Kris register. The law took Kobach says effect in 2013, and it more than applied for the first 30,000 time in state and fedincomplete eral elections during voter last year’s mid-term applications are being held elections.

He said there are people on the list who tried to register as far back as 2013, many of whom have since moved, but counties are told they need to continue sending reminders to those voters to submit their citizenship documents.

“Right now (the counties) can’t take them off that way,” Kobach said. “The way the regulations are structured now, they’re still sending (reminders) out to everybody on the list.”

Under the proposed change, voters would have 90 days after they file their applications to register to provide the required citizenship documents — either a birth certificate, U.S. passport, naturalization document or

Another controversial Donald Trump comment roiled the GOP presidential race Saturday, sparking increased criticism from some Republicans who are hoping to boost the party’s appeal to female voters.

The organizer of the RedState Gathering of conservative USA TODAY activists rescinded his in- Megyn Kelly vitation to Trump to address delegates on Saturday over what he called an indecent attack on Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly that suggested menstruation.

“I don’t want my daughter in the same room with Donald Trump,” said Erick Erickson, editor of the RedState website.

Other Republican presidential candidates backed Erickson’s decision. Former Florida governor Jeb Bush told the RedState attendees that Trump’s comments about Kelly insult all women.

Referring to the Thursday debate in which Kelly asked Trump about insults to women, he told CNN on Friday regarding her: “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever.”

Trump said he meant to refer to Kelly’s nose when he said “wherever,” but Erickson and other critics said it appears that the billionaire believes Kelly asked him tough questions because she was having her period.

The Trump campaign fired back at Erickson for “political correctness” and dismissed him as a “total loser.”

Trump’s remark roils GOP contest

@ByErikBrady USA TODAY Sports JIM THORPE , PA . The man this borough is named for lived one of the most astonishing lives of the 20th century. Remarkably, his story in death is even more astonishing — and very much alive.

Jim Thorpe, the man, is buried in Jim Thorpe, the place — though the man had never been to the place while breathing.

Whether his remains will remain in a roadside mausoleum here, as an appeals court ruled, or can be repatriated to the Sac and Fox Nation in Oklahoma, as the tribe hopes, is up to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Chances are the appeals court ruling will stand, as the high court gets roughly 10,000 petitions each year and hears oral arguments in fewer than 100 of them. Even so, what are long odds

to a man born in American Indian territory in the 1880s who’d one day win Olympic gold medals, play big-league baseball and emerge as an early star of pro football?

This is the story of perhaps the greatest athlete in recorded history and how his octogenarian sons are trying to bring him home for a traditional Sac and Fox burial that was interrupted 62 years ago by their father’s third wife, who arrived with police to spirit his corpse away in a hearse.

The story revolves around Mauch Chunk and East Mauch Chunk — onetime coal-mining towns in northeastern Pennsylvania that agreed to merge and rename themselves as part of an unusual arrangement with Patricia Thorpe after her husband’s 1953 death. The story also re-

Customers joining Verizon will have to pay the full cost of their smartphone if they choose to stick with the wireless carrier, according to new data plans revealed Friday.

Reaction in the Twittersphere was mixed, with some customers praising the move and others

criticizing Verizon’s decision to end smartphone subsidies.

In a statement, Verizon says the new plans — which take effect Thursday — will be available in four forms: uSmall: $30/month for 1GB of shareable data uMedium: $45/month for 3GB of shareable data uLarge: $60/month for 6GB of shareable data uX-Large: $80/month for

Russia spurs anger by destroying tons of banned food Anna Arutunyan

Special for USA TODAY

The destruction of more than 350 tons of food by the government last week angered Russians in a nation where some are struggling to feed themselves and many recall the norm of food shortages just a generation ago.

The food was burned and streamrolled beginning Thursday following a controversial decree

by President Vladimir Putin ordering banned products from Europe and the United States to be eliminated before they can reach store shelves.

MOSCOW

A man stands near banned tomatoes on Thursday outside Smolensk.

“You can’t just destroy food when there are so many people who have trouble feeding themselves,” said activist Olga Saveleva, whose petition on Change.org had gathered over 320,000 signatures since Thursday.

“The media is gleefully showing how this food is being burned.

We have a lot of people going hungry, a lot of people in poverty.

There are veterans of (World War II) who remember the blockade” of Leningrad, when hundreds of thousands of people died of hunger, she said. “This is a mockery.”

Moscow banned a wide range of meat, fruit and milk products from the United States and Euro-

pean countries a year ago in retaliation for Western sanctions on Russia over its annexation of Crimea and incursion into eastern Ukraine.

Russia denies it is involved in the ongoing fighting in eastern Ukraine, despite mounting evidence.

Last month, the government proposed destroying banned foodstuffs that were continuing to seep across the border and onto store shelves.

Putin signed a decree, which went into effect Thursday, ordering the destruction of any such products that had made it into the country. The order does not

affect food brought in by citizens for private use.

Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov admitted on Thursday the incineration of food looked “unpleasant.” But he added it was a necessary measure “considering that this is, simply put, contraband,” according to RIA Novosti.

He said the Kremlin would consider the petition.

Since the decree went into effect, Russian state television has been demonstrating how cheese, fruit and meat were being incinerated and bulldozed into the ground. The measures are “absurd and grotesque,” said Saveleva.

2B v CONTINUED FROM 1B

volves around the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), enacted by Congress in 1990 to rectify the long-standing plunder of American Indian burial grounds by making it possible for remains and sacred objects to be returned to descendants and tribes.

“It was Dad’s wish to be laid to rest on Native American land where he was born,” Bill Thorpe tells USA TODAY Sports. “He told me. He told my brothers.

And I just think we should honor his wishes.”

William Schwab, an attorney who represents the borough, says there’s no record of this wish.

Even so, he says, the borough might very well accede to the brothers’ wishes if the family were united on this. Bill, 87, and Richard, 83, Jim Thorpe’s sons from his second marriage, want their father’s remains returned to Oklahoma; John Thorpe, a grandson from his first marriage, does not. (Jim Thorpe and Patricia, known as Patsy, did not have children.)

Stephen Ward, an attorney who represents the Sac and Fox Nation as well as Bill and Richard Thorpe, says the answer is simple: The borough should keep the name and the mausoleum, just not the remains.

That doesn’t work for Jack Kmetz of the Jim Thorpe Area Hall of Fame. “Without him,” he says, “we’re not Jim Thorpe anymore.”

Ward rejects that reasoning.

“The borough seems to be taking somewhat the view that his remains are some sort of mascot,” he says. “Because it is an Indian, somebody thinks the remains belong to them and they own them. That’s what NAGPRA was intended to address.”

American Indians buried on federal land were long viewed as “archeological resources,” and many museums routinely collected Native American remains and funerary items such as burial clothes and jewelry. NAGPRA provides lineal descendants and affiliated tribes a process for repatriation from museums, which the law defines as any institution or state or local government agency that receives federal funds and has possession of or control over Native American cultural items.

“Our town is named after the greatest athlete who ever lived.

Nobody else can say that. …

What’s left to argue over?”

Jack Kmetz, Jim Thorpe Area Hall of Fame president

U.S. District Court Judge A. Richard Caputo ruled in 2013 that the borough is a museum under that definition. But last fall, a panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that “interpreting ‘museum’ to include a gravesite that Thorpe’s widow intended as Thorpe’s final resting place” would be an absurd result and reversed the district court

JIM THORPE, PA., FIGHTS TO HOLD ONTO NAMESAKE

BILL STREICHER, USA TODAY SPORTS

Jim Thorpe Memorial Park includes a mausoleum with the famous athlete’s remains as well as two statues. Thorpe, perhaps the greatest athlete of the 20th century, died at age 64 in 1953. under the rarely used absurdity doctrine.

The Thorpe brothers and the Sac and Fox Nation petitioned the Supreme Court in June to overturn the appeals court.

Ward, their attorney, says native people have long struggled to have their religious practices and burial customs respected, and he says the high court should take the case to solidify the meaning of NAGPRA as well as to clarify the absurdity doctrine.

Schwab, who represents the borough, says the appeals court found that spousal rights trump tribal rights, and he expects the high court to see it the same way.

“We don’t think this is a case for the Supreme Court to hear,” he says. “We see this as the tribe coming up with facts that are not in the record. I’m seeing this as the case they wish they had, rather than the actual facts of the case.”

‘GREATEST ATHLETE’

The story goes that when Thorpe won the decathlon and the pentathlon at the 1912 Stockholm Games, Sweden’s King Gustav told him, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” The royal sentiment is etched on mausoleum marble.

The International Olympic Committee would ultimately strip Thorpe of his medals for playing semipro baseball for as little as $2 a game in the years before competing in the Games, thereby rendering him a professional in the since-discredited era of amateurism. The IOC returned the medals nearly 30 years after his death.

Thorpe burst to fame as an AllAmerica running back at Carlisle Indian School in central Pennsylvania, roughly 100 miles from his future burial site. In 1911, he

scored all of his team’s points in an 18-15 upset of Harvard. In 1912, after his Olympic triumphs, Thorpe ran roughshod in a big win against Army. Dwight Eisenhower, who played for Army that day, said Thorpe “could do anything better than any other football player I ever saw.”

Grantland Rice put it more poetically: “He moved like a breeze.” More poetic yet was his Thunder Clan name, Wa-tha-huk — “The Bright Path the Lightning Makes as It Goes Across the Sky.” Thorpe played six seasons of Major League Baseball, mostly for the New York Giants, batting .252, while also playing pro football (for the Canton Bulldogs and others) so well that he was an inaugural member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame 10 years after his death. In 2000, ABC’s Wide

World of Sports anointed Thorpe as athlete of the century ahead of luminaries such as Babe Ruth, Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan.

But Thorpe’s personal life did not match his athletic career. He struggled for years with alcoholism. He married three times; the first two ended in divorce. He was married to his third wife at the time of his death, though Bill Thorpe says his father was estranged from Patsy by then.

Schwab says there is no record of that.

Thorpe died of a heart attack at age 64 in California in March 1953 — without a will. Sandra Massey, Sac and Fox historic preservation officer, says it is a profound misunderstanding of their culture to expect wills and other written records.

Bill Thorpe says his siblings and Patsy agreed to burial in Oklahoma and preparations were made for a traditional three-day ceremony under tribal customs and traditions. But Patsy arrived during a ritual feast the night before the burial, evidently upset that the governor had vetoed a state appropriation to build a memorial near the gravesite.

“It was in the middle of a dinner ceremony,” Bill Thorpe says.

“I guess you’d call it a goodbye dinner. And Patsy comes in with mortuary people and some police and took his body. And there wasn’t a thing we could do, being as how she was the wife. We tried to say, ‘Hey, don’t do this.’ ” Massey — whose mother, Henrietta, attended the interrupted feast — says police had no authority on tribal lands and calls the body-taking “psychic terror.”

She says her people believe Thorpe’s spirit cannot be at peace until the full ceremony is concluded.

IN BRIEF AFGHAN CAPITAL HIT BY DEADLY TERROR ATTACKS

A NATO coalition soldier and eight Afghan contractors were killed in an attack on an American military base in Kabul, NATO said Saturday. It was one of three attacks to shock the capital Friday.

The nationality of the soldier in the attack Friday night was not immediately confirmed. CNN and Fox News reported that the servicemember was an American.

The New York Times, citing a U.S. military source, reported that nine contractors died in the assault.

Fighting continued into the early morning hours Saturday after the attack on Camp Integrity, an American base, the Times reported. A number of other NATO servicemembers, foreign contracted civilians and others were wounded in the assault, NATO spokesman Col. Brian Tribus told the Associated Press.

“Death ceremonies are a process,” she says. “What happens if the process is not completed? We never had to contemplate that before. We think he is in limbo.”

Bill Thorpe says Patsy shopped his father’s corpse across the country for a year before making a cash deal, sometimes reported as $500. “She was paid I think under-the-table type,” he says.

Grandson John Thorpe says there’s no record of any payment and that he personally searched for one. Schwab says the allegation that Patsy was paid is no more than folklore.

“When we hear serious legal issues and human rights issues dismissed as folklore, that’s offensive to the Sac and Fox people and this legal team,” Ward says.

“The borough’s position is it’s folklore because it’s not written down. That’s a misunderstanding of Indian traditions. They didn’t have contracts; histories weren’t written.”

John Thorpe thinks Patsy was looking not for money but for a place that would honor the memory of her husband in grand fashion, as his home state had failed to do, though pie-in-the-sky plans for a stadium and a cancer center in Pennsylvania never materialized.

Ward says the interment agreement specifies that Patsy and her heirs will not remove the remains as long as the borough keeps the name Jim Thorpe.

“But Bill and the rest of the family are not her heirs,” Ward says.

JIM THORPE, PA., THRIVES

Mauch Chunk and East Mauch Chunk were prosperous places that fell on hard times as oil replaced coal. The Thorpe tomb never did become the tourist attraction that townspeople had hoped for when they merged, but today the region thrives on tourism — hiking, biking and whitewater rafting in and around one of the most beautiful small towns in America.

Kmetz, of the local sports hall of fame, says Jim Thorpe, the place, honors Jim Thorpe, the man.

“Our town is named after the greatest athlete who ever lived,” he says. “Nobody else can say that. … What’s left to argue over?

They had first shot (to bury Thorpe in Oklahoma) and rightfully so, but the governor reneged on it. We have a signed contract from his wife. What they claim their father said doesn’t hold the same water as the contract we have in our hands.”

Kmetz thinks NAGPRA should not apply to Jim Thorpe — man or place. “Calling us a museum is way out of bounds,” he says.

“There’s no doors at the mausoleum.”

The burial site is set on a knoll on Route 903. There are a pair of statues — Thorpe with a football and Thorpe with a discus — plus historical signposts sketching out that astonishing life story.

David and Michella Priest and their daughter Madelena visited recently, on vacation from Waunakee, Wis. They learned of the burial site only after they’d arrived in nearby Lake Harmony.

“I’d never heard of Jim Thorpe before,” Michella Priest says.

They knew nothing about how Thorpe came to be here — or about how his sons hope to take him home.

“Wow,” David Priest says.

“That’s a crazy story.”

DESPITE DANGERS OF PURSUITS, POLICE TECH IS SLOW TO ADVANCE Departments try newer systems, but obstacles remain Thomas Frank USA TODAY

On May 18, Houston police officer Richard Martin tried to stop a carjacking suspect fleeing police by laying a strip of tire-deflating spikes across the street where the suspect was driving.

The driver swerved his car into Martin and killed him.

Martin’s death illustrates the limitations and danger of technology designed to stop and catch drivers who flee police.

Despite thousands of deaths among fleeing drivers, passengers, innocent bystanders and police in vehicle pursuits, there have been only minor advances in the equipment police use to stop fleeing drivers and avoid casualties. Police chases have been left behind in the modernization that has made standard equipment of Tasers, body armor, police car cameras and portable computers.

“There’s been a lot of advances in police technology in the last 15 years. The pursuit-termination devices we envisioned haven’t kept up with those advances,” California Highway Patrol Commissioner Joseph Farrow said.

The federal government has funded fledgling technologies, but the results have fallen well short of the hype of a 1996 Justice Department bulletin headline, “HighSpeed Pursuit: New Technologies Around the Corner.” The Justice Department has funded systems that would obviate a chase, either by attaching a GPS device to a car and monitoring its movements or by turning off a car’s engine remotely.

Both technologies would probably save lives by precluding highspeed chases, which killed 11,506 people from 1979 through 2013, according to a USA TODAY analysis of federal records. Nearly half of those killed were bystanders or passengers in cars being chased, USA TODAY found.

The overwhelming number of police chases occur after traffic violations and minor crimes. Although some police departments restrict chases, allowing pursuit of only people suspected of violent felonies or other serious crimes, the most commonly used equipment — tire-deflating spikes — has been around for nearly two decades.

“We’re in the 21st century. We should be using 21st-century technology,” said Trevor Fischbach, president of StarChase.

StarChase’s system shoots an adhesive GPS device onto a car exterior, letting police halt their chase and track the car.

The StarChase system is mounted behind the grill of police cars. Officers use a console to fire a GPS tracker while they’re driving.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety has embedded the systems in seven cars and uses them every time an officer can get within 30 feet of a fleeing vehicle, Capt. Chris Hemmen said. After tagging a car, police shadow it

MATTHEW JONAS, THE DAILY TIMES CALL, VIA AP

Firefighters stand at attention as a Colorado State Patrol procession for cadet Taylor Thyfault, 21, passes in Erie, Colo., on May 29. Thyfault was hit and killed May 23 by a driver.

from a couple of blocks away. “As soon as they stop, we’re able to pounce,” Hemmen said.

“My officers don’t like being in pursuits,” Hemmen said. “It’s an inherently dangerous part of this job.”

The $5,000 purchase price has been a major deterrent. “Every agency we speak with, they love the technology,” Fischbach said.

“Unfortunately, it comes down to dollars.”

The devices are used by only 20 of the nation’s 18,000 police departments, including in Austin and St. Petersburg, Fla., Fischbach said.

The Houston Police Department considered using StarChase and took another look after Martin’s death, but it’s not moving forward because police using the system would still have to chase a car to get close enough to fire the GPS tracker.

“You’re still pursuing somebody.

It just calls it off a little bit sooner,” Houston police spokeswoman Jodi Silva said.

A 2014 study of StarChase for the Justice Department found that high-speed deployments were “the major difficulty” with the system and that some police would not want to risk “driving so fast at such a close proximity” to a fleeing suspect.

Police sometimes fail to get a StarChase tracker to stick to a car, either because they miss the target

STARCHASE

Using the StarChase console, police can track a car by computer until it stops, then make an arrest. or because the tracker bounces off the exterior. “We have about a 60% hit rate,” said Austin Police Commander Ely Reyes. In some cases, the thumping sound of a GPS tracker hitting a car prompts the driver to stop.

The federal government began studying police chases after a controversial study in 1968 by Physicians for Automotive Safety said 70% of chases result in a crash.

Recent studies say about one-third of chases result in a crash, and about half of crashes cause an injury or death.

After researching pursuit policies, the Justice Department created a task force in 1996 to study technology that would safely stop fleeing cars. The task force found “no single technology on the horizon” to improve pursuit safety and urged federal support.

The Justice Department gave $380,000 to StarChase and $300,000 to a New Mexico company to build a device that would fire microwaves at a moving automobile, federal records show.

Microwaves would confuse the car’s electrical system and cause the engine to turn itself off.

An advantage of the microwave

system is its ability to work from up to 60 feet away. But that range means the system could shut down all nearby motor vehicles, which forced developer Fiore Industries to refine the system.

puters in police cars. In 2007, 90% of police worked for a department with portable computers — up from 30% in 1990, a Justice Department report shows.

Police body cameras received a boost in December when President Obama proposed $75 million in federal funds to buy 50,000 cameras, which would “build and sustain trust” between police and communities.

Tire spikes, first deployed in 1996, are seldom used because police must know where a fleeing car is heading so they can pull a strip of spikes across a road. A national survey of nearly 17,000 chases since 2001 by the International Association of Chiefs of Police found that spikes were used in 5% of chases.

Then there is the danger. Five days after the death of Martin, the Houston police officer, Colorado State Patrol cadet Taylor Thyfault, was killed when a fleeing suspect swerved to avoid spikes laid by another state patrolman, who was injured.

Suspect Christopher Gebers is charged with first-degree murder.

The Houston driver, Jeffrey Ryan Conlin, fatally shot himself shortly after killing Martin.

In 2012, an FBI bulletin said 26 police officers had been killed deploying tire spikes since 1996 and urged police to “weigh other options” to stop fleeing suspects.

A Justice Department overview notes that spikes “can put both the officers and other motorists in danger” if they drive over the spikes.

Police can use helicopters to track fleeing vehicles, allowing police cars to back off, which usually causes a fleeing driver to slow down in a minute or two.

“A lot of times, the suspect won’t even know the helicopter is monitoring their progress and location,” said Reyes of Austin.

Helicopter pilots can guide police on the ground and use infrared cameras to track suspects who get out of the car and run, Reyes said.

But few police departments have helicopters. A 2007 Justice Department report found that

“We’re in the 21st century.

We should be using 21st-century technology.”

Trevor Fischbach,president of StarChase

The company wants to add a database of all motor vehicles so police could target only the make and model car they’re pursuing, Fiore president and owner Bill Miera said. That’s expensive.

“We need $2 million to $3 million to get a database of all car types,” Miera said, adding that he “kind of stopped” seeking funding after being turned down by venture-capital firms.

“It’s very frustrating that we haven’t gotten to the next stage,” Miera said.

Police increasingly use computers for intelligence-gathering and crime analysis and have routinely installed video cameras and com-

only 201 of the nation’s 941 largest departments had helicopters. The USA has roughly 18,000 police departments.

If a helicopter is not already in the air when a chase begins, it can take so long to get it warmed up and airborne that a fleeing suspect may have eluded police.

Farrow of the California Highway Patrol said that in the mid-1990s everyone assumed police would have technology that would eliminate chases.

“We didn’t make that,” Farrow said. “Companies and departments and agencies are going to have to spend money to find a way to slow these cars down.”

W. Africa’s Ebola survivors face lingering health issues

AHMED JALLANZO, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Many are unable to work due to joint pain, eye trouble or trauma Liz Szabo

USA TODAY

Many Ebola survivors in West Africa are suffering from lingering health problems due to the virus, according to doctors working with the World Health Organization.

Half of survivors have joint pain, which can leave them too debilitated to work, said Daniel Bausch, a member of the WHO clinical care team and an associate professor at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine in New Orleans. About 25% have eye complications, which can range from vision changes to uveitis, an inflammation inside the eye that can lead to blindness if not treated.

But treating Ebola-related eye problems isn’t easy. Sierra Leone — a nation of more than 6.4 million people — has only two ophthalmologists, Bausch said.

Ebola survivors also have dealt with the psychological trauma of the disease, Bausch said.

The Ebola outbreak in West Africa, which began in December 2013, is the largest in history.

More than 27,860 people have

had Ebola in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone and 11,281 have died, according to the WHO. That leaves more than 16,000 survivors. The largest outbreak before this was in Uganda in 2000-01, with 425 cases, only half of whom survived.

“The world has never seen so many survivors,” said Anders Nordstrom, the WHO representative for Sierra Leone. “This is new, both from a medical point of view, but also from a societal point of view.”

In some ways, everyone living in the three countries is a survivor. Virtually everyone knows someone who died from the virus, and everyone has lived with the effects of Ebola on the economy, health care system and society, Nordstrom said.

Doctors don’t have enough experience treating Ebola survivors to know exactly what to expect.

But Alie Wurie, of the Ministry of Health and Sanitation in Sierra Leone, said he’s concerned about what will happen when women who survived Ebola get pregnant.

Doctors don’t know how Ebola will affect pregnant survivors or their children.

Doctors do know that pregnant Ebola patients were at very high

risk of death and very few gave birth to live children, Bausch said.

Most babies were miscarried or stillborn. Many stillborn babies had major anatomical defects.

“We have very few kids who survived,” Bausch said. The WHO plans to release guidelines related to Ebola and pregnancy this week, Nordstrom said.

Ebola cases have been declining in West Africa for the past three weeks, according to the WHO. There were two confirmed cases of Ebola in the week ending Aug. 2, with one each in Sierra Leone and Guinea. That’s the lowest level of cases since March 2014.

Liberia has had no Ebola cases

Almost 2,000 contacts of Ebola patients are under observation in Sierra Leone and Guinea.

Last week was the first in three weeks with no new infections among health care workers, who have been hit hard by Ebola. The WHO has reported a total of 880 cases of Ebola in health care workers, along with 512 deaths.

Health professionals would be some of the first to be vaccinated against Ebola, if a working vaccine is approved.

Results from early tests of an experimental Ebola vaccine show that it is “highly effective,” the WHO said.

Why Turkey joined U.S.-led fight against ISIL Jim Michaels l USA TODAY

Turkey, a moderate Muslim country and NATO member, is a key U.S. ally in the region. But it had long been a reluctant partner in the U.S.-led alliance battling the Islamic State, or ISIL — until recent attacks against Turks helped the government change its mind.

Last month, the United States and Turkey announced a breakthrough to work together in the fight against the Islamic State in Syria. It remains a complicated relationship fraught with risks and competing interests in a region where each country has different allies and chief enemies. Here are key questions and answers about why Turkey joined the fight:

Q Q A: Turkey agreed to let U.S. A: First, the base in Turkey WHAT DOES THE NEW AGREEMENT SAY?

armed drones and aircraft fly from Incirlik Air Base in southern Turkey. The Pentagon said last week it began launching armed drones from Turkey against the Islamic State as part of the agreement. Turkey’s aircraft will join the coalition’s bombing of Islamic State targets in Syria. The two countries agreed to create a buffer zone on the ground along the Syrian border of Turkey.

WHY IS THAT GOOD FOR THE U.S. COALITION?

places U.S. aircraft closer to targets in Syria, where President Bashar Assad’s forces battle the Islamic State and U.S.-backed Syrian rebels and where Kurds fight the Islamic State. The base allows the aircraft, which began to arrive at Incirlik Air Base, to reach targets quickly and linger in the air longer, making airstrikes more effective. Second, Turkey’s active participation provides a political boost to the coalition by bringing in a large Muslim country that carries sig-

nificant political and economic clout in the region.

Q A: Details of a “buffer zone” IS THE U.S. SETTING UP A NO-FLY ZONE?

along the Turkish-Syrian border have yet to be hammered out, but Washington has said it won’t

be a “no-fly zone,” which Turkey has long sought. The U.S. has resisted a no-fly zone because it would require allied aircraft to take down Syrian aircraft that enter the zone or to attack Syrian anti-air defenses if they impede enforcement of the no-fly zone. That could lead to direct combat with Syrian forces. By contrast, a buffer zone would clear only a region along the Syrian-Turkish border of ground fighting, capitalizing on gains Kurdish forces have made against the Islamic State in the area. Turkey and the U.S. have not decided what type of ground force would be used in such an operation. Turkey has said it will not send its troops into Syria, but a Turkish-backed surrogate force might take on Syrian government forces, posing risks for the U.S.-led coalition.

Q A: Turkey would use the agreement as political cover to WHAT ARE THE RISKS?

attack Kurdish separatists, whom the government has been fighting for years. That could pose a problem for the U.S. because the Kurds in Syria and Iraq have been more effective ground fighters against the Is-

lamic State than Iraq’s armed forces — meaning Turkish attacks on the Kurds could hamper efforts to defeat the Islamic State. There are different Kurdish groups in Iraq, Syria and Turkey, but they all have ties, and many share an aspiration to form an independent state, which Turkey adamantly opposes. After Turkey announced its deal with the U.S., it immediately began bombing Kurdish positions in northern Iraq.

Q

DOES AN AGREEMENT WITH TURKEY RISK DRAWING THE U.S. FURTHER INTO THE SYRIAN CIVIL WAR?

A: Yes. The U.S. sees ISIL as the region’s top threat. Washington wants Syria’s Assad out as president, but it wants a political solution to maintain stability in Syria during a transition and avoid chaos similar to what followed the ouster of leaders in Libya and Yemen. Turkey sees the problem differently: It considers Assad’s ouster a top priority. The Pentagon says it has no intention of engaging in direct combat with Assad’s forces, but that may prove difficult if Turkish-backed rebels or aircraft begin attacking Syrian troops.

Key shareholder pitches new leaders Jessica Guynn @jguynn USA TODAY

Influential Twitter shareholder Chris Sacca is backing co-founder and chairman Jack Dorsey as Twitter’s next chief executive.

Sacca on Friday proposed a new leadership slate for Twitter.

He wants Twitter’s head of global revenue and partnerships, Adam Bain, to be promoted to president and chief operating officer, and co-founder Evan Williams to replace Dorsey as executive chairman.

“Naming @jack, @adambain, and @ev will immediately improve employee morale, shore up investor confidence, and move Twitter’s product forward,” Sacca wrote in a tweet.

Investor confidence has deflated since Twitter executives warned that the company was facing a lengthy turnaround.

Twitter shares are trading at alltime lows, flirting with the initial public offering price of $26.

Twitter closed down 2% to $27.04 on Friday.

Warren Buffett: Planning takeover?

IN THE HOT SEAT BERKSHIRE PROFITS SLUMP Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway conglomerate late Friday posted second-quarter profits that were 37% lower than a year ago and missed analysts’ estimates on operating profits. The decline was blamed on lower investment gains and an underwriting loss due to higher claims costs at insurer Geico. Its operating profit fell 10% to $3.9 billion, or $2,637 a share, from $4.3 billion, or $2,634 a share, last year.

On Saturday, The Wall Street Journal was the first to report that the conglomerate is in talks to buy aircraft parts maker Precision Castparts for possibly more than $30 billion. It would be Buffett’s biggest takeover ever.

John Legere helped bring new life to wireless company T-Mobile with his “un-carrier” strategy.

Aggressive approach helped firm rebound, become No. 3 carrier Kaja Whitehouse

T-MOBILE CUSTOMER NUMBERS SURGE John Legere is credited with taking T-Mobile out of the smartphone doldrums after becoming CEO in Q3 2012.

Number of customers by quarter, in millions:

USA TODAY

He’s a brash braggart who’s been kicked out of parties.

He drops F-bombs with ease and enjoys a good Twitter brawl.

This isn’t some rowdy frat boy.

This is John Legere, the CEO of wireless company T-Mobile.

Last week, Legere (pronounced “ledger”) proved his unconventional style is more than just a sideshow when, for the first time in recent history, T-Mobile officially slid past Sprint to become the nation’s third-largest wireless carrier.

T-Mobile ended its June quarter with 58.9 million customers, representing growth of 77% over the second quarter of 2012, before Legere joined. Sprint, by contrast, reported 57.7 million “connections,” an industry term for measuring customers, when it reported earnings on Tuesday.

Taking the No. 3 slot was far from easy. When Legere joined TMobile in September 2012, the unit of Deutsche Telekom had just 33.16 million customers, well below Sprint’s 56.38 million connections, according to industry tracker GSMA Intelligence.

T-Mobile was also leaking customers. A few months before Legere took over, T-Mobile reported 33.16 million customers, down from 33.58 million a year earlier. “When John came to TMobile, that thing was on life support. People were running away from it,” said Roger Entner, a telecom analyst with Recon Analytics.

Legere, 57, breathed life into the company with his “un-carrier” strategy — an aggressive marketing campaign that seeks to eliminate hidden fees and burdensome two-year contracts.

Dorsey is interim CEO at Twitter while the company searches for a replacement for Dick Costolo, who resigned in June after revenue took a surprise hit in the first quarter and the company continued to struggle to attract new users.

Twitter’s board of directors, which is conducting the CEO search, has said it wants a fulltime CEO, ruling out Dorsey as long as he is still running digital payments company Square.

Sacca said Friday that he believes Dorsey can run both companies at the same time.

Dorsey did not provide an update on the CEO search during Twitter’s second-quarter conference call with analysts.

Complicating matters: Square has confidentially filed for an IPO. Advisers for Square’s IPO are making preparations in case Dorsey leaves the company he cofounded to join Twitter, Bloomberg reported.

A Wall Street analyst also raised the possibility earlier in the week. SunTrust Robinson Humphrey analyst Robert Peck said in a research note last week that a “triumvirate of power” was the “most likely outcome.”

Sacca says Twitter should act soon.

“Twitter’s board of directors should put this looming uncertainty to rest by naming those three and letting everyone get back to work,” Sacca said in a tweet.

Twitter showed almost no growth in its core group of users in the second quarter. Those users who sign into the service at least once a month grew to 304 million from 302 million in the first quarter, raising fresh concerns that Twitter is not a “must” service for Internet users.

In a boost for Twitter on Friday, S&P Capital IQ analyst Scott Kessler upgraded Twitter to a “strong buy.” His 12-month price target is $44.

“We acknowledge questions about user growth and company leadership, strategy and execution. However, we see attractive assets, led by the unique namesake real-time broadcast/communications platform with 316 million monthly active users as of June, and including emerging video properties Periscope and Vine,” Kessler wrote.

AGE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE A HURDLE

I

magine for a moment that you’re among the long-term unemployed.

Imagine, too, that you’re on the back nine of your career — say age 55 to 70. What barriers might you face when looking for a job? And what strategies might you use to get re-employed? Here’s what experts say you need to do to land a job.

(49%) were more likely to have begun their search immediately than the unemployed (35%).

Robert Powell

Special for USA TODAY

IMPROVE JOB SKILLS

About one-third (31%) of those responding to the survey said they participated in training or education programs in the previous five years, according to the AARP PPI report.

“Job training did help some job seekers, too, but it is important to make sure the classes are building skills that are actually needed in the local job market,” Koenig says.

USE YOUR NETWORK

“Don’t be a generic Baby Boomer applicant, competing for open positions. ... Instead of searching for jobs, search your memory.”

John Nelson, on the power of networking

GET HELP

If you’re unemployed, consider getting help of one sort or another. Some 45% of job seekers received some type of help during their job search, according to the report. Help with updating or writing a résumé was the most common reported.

DON’T PROCRASTINATE

Being unemployed doesn’t mean you’re on vacation. “Don’t delay looking for a job, and be aggressive in your search,” Koenig says. Consider: The re-employed were more likely to begin their search sooner than the currently unemployed, according to the AARP report, out in March. The differences were significant. The re-employed

YOUR AGE AND DISCRIMINATION

More than one-quarter (26%) of people responding to the AARP PPI survey said employers thinking they were too old was a major barrier in finding employment. Plus, 18% of unemployed job seekers said they felt too old for available jobs.

REGRETS? YOU’LL HAVE A FEW

Also, consider the regrets that the survey respondents expressed. Forty-six percent wish they had been more aggressive with their job search. Many also wished they had saved more before becoming unemployed, gone back to school to complete or get another degree or chosen another field.

DEALING WITH THE BARRIERS

Two tactics to consider: One, broaden your job search by looking for a job in a different field, and two, look for a job with lower pay or benefits.

For his part, Art Koff, the founder of Retired Brains in Chicago, recommends looking for anything but a full-time job.

“We have found that employers are interested in hiring from this age demographic but generally on a part-time, temporary, seasonal or project basis,” he says. “In most of these cases, employers do not have to pay benefits, can hire out of a different budget and can both onboard and, more importantly, off-board with little or no expense by comparison to fulltime employees.”

Koff’s advice to job seekers: Tell the recruiter or hiring manger that you would be pleased to work at-will, even when applying for a full-time job.

Lisa Kiplinger l USA TODAY

Getting back into the job market after years, or even decades, is daunting. If the last time you updated your résumé was on a typewriter, there are a few things you really need to know to sell yourself in today’s market.

Kerry Hannon — jobs expert at AARP and the author of Great Jobs for Everyone 50+: Finding Work That Keeps You Happy and Healthy ... And Pays the Bills — shares her top do’s and don’ts.

DON’T DO THIS

uBRING YOUR ‘A’ GAME TO THE INTERVIEW. Position yourself

as an expert and act as if you’re a highly paid consultant there to solve their problem, but stay away from sounding professorial and a know-it-all. Be forthright and clear about why you’re motivated by what the organization does, plus why you think you would be a good fit with their culture. When you interview with someone younger than you, be careful not to come off as condescending.

uDON’T IGNORE THE GAPS. Fill in holes

There’s no race to push the buzzer.

Keep focused on your interviewers and the reality that you’re sitting in that chair to sell solutions to their problems or challenges, not what you want to say next about yourself. At the core of a job interview, it’s about them, not about you.

Listen closely to what they’re saying. You might come off as flip without meaning to do so.

uPAY ATTENTION TO YOUR APPEARANCE.

If you’re considering a lowerpaying job, think beyond salary to other benefits that you value, says author Kerry Hannon.

Tuition reimbursement, flexible work arrangements or vacation days are negotiable perks.

Update your wardrobe and specs, if need be. Get physically fit. It will help you exude a vibrant, can-do spirit and enthusiasm of a younger worker.

uPREPARE FOR THE ‘OVERQUALIFIED’ QUESTION. A

younger, less experienced worker may not balk at a salary that could be a serious cut from what you earned in your last position. If you’re OK making less, say so. For example, if you no longer want to be in a prominent management position, let the interviewer know that you want to get back to basics and focus on work that you enjoy and honing your own skills. Employers worry that you’ll grow bored or ultimately be resentful if you accept a job that pays less and doesn’t have the status of a previous job. Explain why and how the firm would profit by hiring you.

uPRACTICE MOCK INTERVIEWS. Practice interviews with a

read your résumé in 20 seconds, so make sure that it is no more than two pages and tells a story.

see is your most recent 10 to 15 years of experience. Think advertisement, not obituary.

No one wants to read every one of your employment entries over a four- to fivedecade career. Package your earlier experiences into one paragraph at the end of your résumé’s “experience” section and omit dates.

And use only the work history that’s relevant to the job you are applying for now.

uDON’T MAKE RAPID, OFF-THE-TOP-OF-YOUR-HEAD ANSWERS. This isn’t “Jeopardy.”

in your employment history. It’s best to have a good experience to sub for it, say, during a period between jobs — you traveled, volunteered, added a degree or pursued other education. If you were out of the workforce for caregiving duties, you can market that, too: You were skill-building. No doubt you were a “project manager,” supervising a team of nurses, doctors or physical therapists. You were a “researcher” tracking down the best doctors and care. You may have been a “financial manager” in charge of bill-paying and insurance claims.

DO THIS INSTEAD

GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

“Most people have to work at finding a job, and the process can be long, arduous and disheartening,” wrote Gary Koenig, Lori Trawinski and Sara Rix, the authors of an AARP Public Policy Institute (PPI) report. “Many efforts at re-employment never pay off. But some do.”

Networking was an important tool, wrote the authors. Reaching out to their networks of contacts was viewed as the most effective step by the re-employed who took it: 68% said it was either “very or somewhat effective.”

Asking relatives and friends about job opportunities was also effective: 58% said it was “very or somewhat effective.” And 59% said contacting employers directly was “very or somewhat effective.”

Tactics that weren’t effective: checking online and print newspaper want ads, attending job fairs and visiting a public employment agency.

John Nelson, co-author of What Color Is Your Parachute?

For Retirement, agrees that networking is crucial. “Don’t be a generic Baby Boomer applicant, competing for open positions,” Nelson says. “Most hiring managers are younger than you are and naturally choose younger candidates. Unfortunately, the deck is stacked against you.”

So what’s your alternative?

“Instead of searching for jobs, search your memory,” he says.

First, think of all the supervisors and co-workers you’ve had strong relationships with.

“Make an actual list of names, without judging which might be helpful,” Nelson says.

Second, search to see where they’re working now, using Google or LinkedIn. “Most won’t be relevant, but a few of them may be very interesting to you,” Nelson says.

Third, do some research on their current company and position to see where you might fit.

“And finally, with an authentically warm and curious attitude, get in touch with these interesting contacts,” Nelson says.

How is this a better approach? “Instead of being generic, you’re one-of-a-kind,” Nelson says. “Instead of competing, you’re having a conversation. And instead of a younger hiring manager, you’re talking with someone closer to your own age.”

Timmons recalled warmly by friends

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

It’s time to share a few stories about Bob Timmons, the former Kansas University track coach from 1966 to ’88 who died on Tuesday at the age of 91.

Some of these and more — stories galore — likely will be told by folks who attend “Timmie’s” visitation from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m. Monday at Mustard Seed Church (700 Wakarusa Drive) and funeral service at 2 p.m. Tuesday again at Mustard Seed.

U.S. Olympic (1996) pole vaulter Scott Huffman, who is a sales professional with Timmons Sanofi pharmaceutical company, remembers Timmons gathering the team on the Memorial Stadium track in 1984.

“He said, ‘This is what we used to do in the service (Marines)’ and got in a pushup position, arm straight,” Huffman related.

“He locked his arm 90 degrees and said, ‘We can see who can hold it (position) the longest.’ Here’s this older man (60 at the time).

Everybody was laughing.

Coach Timmons nailed that thing and beat every one of us. He said, ‘Until you can do that, you are not in good enough shape.’’’

Huffman was just getting started with his Timmie tales.

“One day, it was probably 1988, he wandered to the vault pit we had in Anschutz (Pavilion),” Huffman said. “We said, ‘Coach, you want to learn to pole vault?’

He said, ‘I never tried it before, what the heck.’ He grabbed a pole and got off the ground. The next day he said, ‘I think I pulled a stomach muscle.’ We said, ‘Coach, you’ve got the technique down.’’’

And this final offering from Huffman ...

“As vaulters, we figured a way we could climb up the walls of Anschutz. Thirty feet in the air we’d jump off a beam into the (vault) pit.

Anschutz was pretty new at the time. We were leaving black footprints on the wall.

Coach Timmons was a little agitated,” Huffman said.

“One day, he said, ‘Come here vaulters. ... I don’t like being called into Floyd Temple’s (assistant AD) office and have him saying, ‘Look at that wall.’

“Coach Timmons had never gotten angry at us before. He turned and walked

Jayhawks put premium on ‘hidden area’

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

By now, roughly seven months into their time in Lawrence, the new Kansas University football coaches have figured out they are going to have to emphasize a bunch of little things if they hope to win games during the first year or two of the transition to head coach David Beaty.

Beaty set the tone for this philosophy and often has talked about emphasizing discipline, valuing possessions and obsessing over quality special teams.

While those things can be handled via film work and reps on the practice field, there’s one element that Beaty refers to as a “hidden area” that might be just as important to shaping this team.

“We always talk about practicing speed when nobody else does,” Beaty said during his 30-minute meeting with the media Saturday.

“Most of the time, (when)

KANSAS RECEIVER LAQUIVIONTE GONZALES (1) taunts receiver Steven Sims Jr. after Sims flinched while squaring up with Gonzales during a hand slap game called No Contact on Saturday at Memorial Stadium. you may walk, we try to jog or run or certainly walk fast.

When we break a meeting in here, those guys don’t walk.

We get out of this room really quick.”

It’s not that Beaty believes the extra sprint from the back of the auditorium to

the door will aid his players’ stamina — though it certainly doesn’t hurt — but more the mind-set behind it. No wasted time. Little wasted movement. Extreme focus on the task at hand.

“We’ll wait when we get there,” Beaty said. “But we’re

gonna hurry to get there. We don’t allow them to get up slow and kind of mosey to the locker room.”

By not allow, Beaty means that literally. And the players know it. Consider the words of red-shirt junior Damani Mosby, a defensive end who has had as good of an offseason as any player on the roster, for proof.

“It’s practicing habits,” Mosby said. “Honestly, I’m scared to walk around here.

If you see a coach around here, you know you’ve gotta at least jog a little bit. To have good habits, you have to work it when nobody else is working it, and that’s something you hear (Beaty) say a lot: Practice when nobody else is practicing.”

First-year wide-receivers coach Klint Kubiak said this style was something Kevin Sumlin did at Texas A&M and current Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury lifted from him as well.

Perez helps Royals edge Sox

KANSAS CITY’S SALVADOR PEREZ, FRONT, braces himself to be doused by teammate Ben Zobrist after the Royals defeated the Chicago White Sox, 7-6, on Saturday night at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Salvador Perez had been scuffling. In a 6-for-32 skid, Perez dropped in two opposite-field, two-out hits to drive in pair of runs and help the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox, 7-6, on Saturday night.

“Salvy is kind of like the Cracker Jack prize,” said Royals manager Ned Yost.

“You never know what you’re going to get from night to night. He can step up there and pop the ball from foul line to foul line. I wasn’t really encouraged or surprised that he’s able to do that.”

White Sox right-hander Jeff Samardzija (8-6) failed to make it out of the fifth, allowing seven runs on six hits, two walks and a hit-batter. In his past two starts, Samardzija has allowed 16 runs and 13 hits in 91⁄3 innings, escalating his ERA to 4.62.

“You play two good teams, and if you’re not on your game, it’s going to come back to get you,” Samardzija said. “It doesn’t change nothing. You’ve got five days and you start again, so we’ll go back to work and be ready next time.”

Perez’s first RBI came in a three-run fourth.

Kendrys Morales, who also had two RBIs, and Perez picked up back-toback run-producing doubles with two out in a four-run fifth. Jarrod Dyson led off the inning with a triple and scored on Mike Moustakas’ sacrifice fly.

Jose Abreu homered to lead off the fourth and sixth innings for his fifth multihomer game for the White Sox, but it wasn’t enough.

Jeremy Guthrie (8-7), who was making his first start since July 29, picked up the victory, although he Please see ROYALS, page 6C

Talib: I’m not jealous of Harris’ success Englewood, Colo. (ap) — Aqib Talib is still at the top of his game. Only, he finds himself often overshadowed by fellow Kansas University alum Chris Harris Jr. Both of the Denver Broncos’ starting cornerbacks had Pro Bowl seasons in 2014, each collecting 17 pass breakups, ALL-PRO a sack and a ’HAWKS forced fumble. n Both Talib Talib had and Hareight more ris had tackles (63 to Pro Bowl 55) and four inseasons in terceptions to 2014, each Harris’ three. collecting 17 But Harris pass breakled the league ups, a sack in opposing and a forced quarterback’s fumble. passer rating Talib had against him eight more (47.8) and tackles (63 didn’t allow a to 55) and single touchfour interdown in 2014 ceptions — and all just to Harris’ months after three. recovering from a torn ACL. “It’s great for me, man.

I love it, man,” Talib said.

“That’s my little brother, you know what I’m saying? It’s like my little brother getting the recognition that he deserves.

Long awaited. So, I’m as happy for him as anybody.

“I’m fixing to play Year 8.

I’ve had all that. I’ve had the hype and all that. Let Chris get it. Let me chill a little bit, you know? Let me chill a little bit and let Chris get all that attention that he deserves.”

With Harris sitting out Saturday’s full-pads practice after tweaking a hamstring, Talib was the one in the spotlight again.

He cut in front of Bubba Caldwell to pick off Peyton Manning’s pass, then didn’t break stride on his way to the end zone.

Only, cornerback Bradley Roby was whistled for being offside.

“Oh well, it’s practice,” Talib said. “So, it’ll still go on the pick board in the room. So, I can’t complain. I’ll let coach worry about that.”

Talib is clearly one of the biggest fans of Wade Phillips’ 3-4 scheme that emphasizes man coverage while turning loose pass-rushers Von Miller, DeMarcus Ware and rookie Shane Ray. Talib likes the way Phillips has simplified things, too.

“Oh, it’s been wonderful. His defense is straight to the point.

Not a lot of thinking but a lot of playing. So, it helps out our whole defense, it allows us to play fast,” he said.

Add in Pro Bowl safety T.J. Ward and newcomer Darian Stewart and Talib believes this secondary could surpass Seattle’s as the league’s best in 2015.

“I don’t feel like we were too far last year. At the end of the year we graded out pretty good. But we want to grade out as the top secondary in the league this year as far as interceptions, yards, all that stuff,” Talib said. “So, with this defense, man, we definitely have a chance to do that.”

MONTREAL’S MICHAEL SAM AND TEAMMATES WARM UP for a Canadian Football League game against the Redblacks on Friday in Ottawa, Ontario.

Sam admits to ‘jitters’ before first CFL game Ottawa, Ontario — Michael Sam became the first openly gay player to appear in a Canadian Football League game Friday night, playing sparingly for the Montreal Alouettes in a 26-23 loss to the Ottawa Redblacks.

“I was focusing on my assignments, actually,” Sam said when asked if he was thinking about the significance of the moment prior to kickoff. “I’m not going to lie, there were some big jitters out there, and I was nervous when I first got on the field. I didn’t get any opportunities to make many plays. I had some good pass rushes, I thought, but close enough is not a sack.”

The 25-year-old defensive end, the 2013 Southeastern Conference defensive player of the year at Missouri, failed to record a tackle.

Sam was selected by the St. Louis Rams in the seventh and final round of the 2014 NFL draft. He was cut by St. Louis and signed by Dallas to the practice squad but didn’t make the Cowboys’ roster.

Sam agreed to a two-year deal with the Alouettes this summer. He left training camp June 12, citing personal reasons, and sat out the team’s first five games.

SOCCER

Sporting upends Toronto, 3-1 Toronto — Benny Feilhaber scored on a penalty kick and also had an assist in Sporting Kansas City’s 3-1 victory over Toronto FC on Saturday.

Sporting Kansas City (10-4-7) stretched its unbeaten streak over Toronto FC (9-9-4) to six games and ended the Canadian team’s home undefeated streak at four.

Feilhaber opened the scoring on the penalty kick in the 20th minute for his eighth goal of the season.

Micheal Bradley tied it for Toronto in the 22nd, and Kansas City pulled ahead in the 29th on Krisztian Nemeth’s header off Feilhaber’s free kick. Nemeth also has eight goals this season.

Jacob Peterson completed the scoring in the 87th minute.

back here. Little by little, we’re talking more with him. He’s trying to make contact with us and that’s a good sign.”

Pierre-Paul has yet to sign his $14.8 million franchise tender, so he is not under contract.

Chiefs make personnel moves St. Joseph, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs have waived wide receiver Armon Binns and linebacker Sage Harold and signed offensive tackle Anthony Dima and wide receiver Adam Drake in a series of moves Saturday.

Binns had not been practicing after hurting his knee earlier in training camp. Harold was considered a longshot to make the roster at linebacker.

Dima signed with the Cleveland Browns after going undrafted last year and also has spent time with the Houston Texans. Drake led the Football Championship Subdivision in yards receiving last season at Eastern Illinois with 93 catches for 1,321 yards and 12 touchdowns.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Pitino takes jab at Trump Louisville, Ky. — Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino is taking a jab at Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump.

The Hall of Famer will coach Puerto Rican junior and national teams in a six-day exhibition series against his Cardinals next week before preparing them for the FIBA Americas Championship in Mexico City later this month. That upcoming trip gave Pitino a chance to lob some political shade toward the billionaire developer, who has been criticized for making insensitive comments about Mexican immigrants in a speech announcing his candidacy.

Pitino didn’t mention Trump by name, but there was no doubt who he was referring to Thursday when he joked that “unlike some political candidates, we love Mexico.”

Coughlin speaks with JPP

East Rutherford, N.J. — Giants coach Tom Coughlin said after practice on Saturday that he finally spoke with injured defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul.

“I spoke with him late Friday afternoon,” Coughlin said.

Pierre-Paul, who led the team with 121⁄2 sacks last season, suffered a serious hand injury in a July 4 fireworks accident.

“Do I know more about how he is? No. He said he’s not going to come here until he’s ready to play,” Coughlin said.

Jimenez’s 61 ties for lead Calgary, Alberta — Miguel Angel Jimenez eagled the par-5 18th hole Saturday to match the course record of 9-under 61 and tie Colin Montgomerie for the second-round lead in the Shaw Charity Classic.

Jimenez matched Fred Couples’ course record set last year. The 51-year-old Spanish player made seven birdies in a nine-hole stretch in the middle of the round.

Montgomerie, the first-round leader after a 62, birdied the 18th for a 66 to join Jimenez at 12-under 128 at Canyon Meadows. The Scot had an eagle, five birdies and three bogeys.

away. You could see he was mad. Five minutes later he was chuckling.

He said, ‘You are actually a pretty good group of guys.’ He said (jokingly), ‘I’ve got to keep in mind you are not guys I had in the ’60s and ’70s. They’d burn down the Union.’

He said it was not that bad an offense. Don’t do it anymore.” l Jerry Waugh, a Beta Theta Pi fraternity brother of Timmons at KU, remembers a major event in Timmons’ life in the spring of Timmons’ senior year at KU (1949-50).

“He was to go back and run a family business (his grandfather’s bank) in Pittsburg. It was what he was supposed to do as elder of three children,” Waugh said. “He didn’t want to do that. He wanted to coach. He went to Pittsburg to tell his mom and dad he wasn’t going to run the business, which had to be a tough thing to do.

“He came back (to KU) the next weekend and started to become a coach. He began to buy books and studied to be a coach. He made himself a coach. I always admired him for that.

“He started at the bottom in Caldwell, Kansas, as basketball and track coach (in 1950). When he was there, I was at Emporia coaching basketball and track — my first job. I knew real quick I needed to find a track coach and Timmie was the guy. I talked him into coming to Emporia and taking over as track coach. Then he went to East High (in Wichita) and had so many state champions in track and swimming. He started the Wichita swim club.

It’s always been a great AAU swim club.

“He and I talked at that time about going to Arizona. I was selling rings. I didn’t have a job.

I stopped by East High and said, ‘Timmie lets go to Arizona.’ He said, ‘I can’t leave now. There’s a runner at East. He’s going to be a real good one.’

That was Jim Ryun (future Olympian),” Waugh added. l Don Steffens, public address announcer at the Kansas Relays every year since 1975, has known Timmons 54 years. Timmons named one of the gates at his famed Rim Rock CC course after Steffens.

“I saw coach Timmons at the state cross country meet two years ago. The year prior to that I went to his house.

He had stuff that was old — books he wrote, thoughts he had. He said, ‘Don if you want this stuff, take it.’ I said, ‘No coach. I can’t do that.’ This is some important stuff that probably should be in the library.

“Coach Timmons kept all the workouts throughout his high school coaching career. He has all of Jim Ryun’s workouts with times and splits in books in his basement. If some coach ever wanted to come in and see Jim Ryun’s workouts, coach Timmons could show every workout he had in high school cross country and track.”

“He was so into detail, planning. He’d have three to four color-coded

sheets where he’d ‘prognosticate’ the scores (of the meet coming up),” Steffens added. “He was nutty about it. He’d have different colors representing different things that could happen.”

Another Steffens story: “There was a guy Tyke Peacock who played basketball and was a high jumper at KU. One Saturday (in February, 1982) he was in a basketball game (against K-State). Timmie flew him into Lincoln after the game for the Big Eight (Indoor) championship. In those days coaches could say, ‘He’s here (before start of events)’ and he’d be signed in.

“Tyke walked in (late) with the bar 7-3 and won it at 7-5, He was probably the most natural high jumper I’ve seen. He gave the quote, ‘I would trade a gold medal in the Olympic Games for one basket in the NBA.’ Shortly after that he got booted off the (track) team for not coming to practice,” Steffens added.

Steffens, in relating one final story, said Timmons did not like discussing the circumstances of getting the job at KU. Legendary coach Bill Easton, a good friend and mentor of Timmons, was fired by AD Wade Stinson in 1965 for purchasing a pole vaulting box without Stinson’s knowledge. Timmons in the spring of ’65 had accepted the head-coaching job at Oregon State but got out of that agreement to become Easton’s replacement at KU. “A lot of Texas schools stayed away from the Kansas Relays in protest after coach Easton got fired. They created the Baylor Invitational in 1966, done as a direct slap to that (Stinson’s) decision. Coach never talked about it. I tried to bring it up a time or two to learn about it. He wouldn’t talk about it,” Steffens said. l Now my story: I was a student-reporter for the University Daily Kansan conducting business in Allen Fieldhouse during the Timmons era when Timmie passed by in the hall with a high school track recruit.

I said hello to Timmons, who knew me (just barely) from covering a few of the Jayhawks’ meets.

Timmons introduced me to the recruit who, I was told, was interested in Journalism. I discussed KU’s Journalism school with the prospect for a few minutes before we all went on our merry ways.

Imagine my surprise a few days later to get a letter from Timmons, delivered to my residence at AKL fraternity, 2021 Stewart Avenue. Timmons looked up where I lived to send the letter.

“Dear Gary, Thank you for your help with the recruiting of Mike Fowler. We appreciate your taking valuable time to explain facts and figures related to Journalism. Best wishes, Bob.” I saved that letter and still have it in my possession today. Suffice it to say I was impressed/ touched that a famous college coach like Timmons would go out of his way to thank a lowly student (me) for such a small deed.

Little acts of kindness are the things we remember about people and that little act is one I’ve chosen not to ever forget.

Baker coach has formula for success ————

Exon directs men’s, women’s golf, finds time for kayaking

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Baldwin City — Baker University golf coach Karen Exon has always been an advocate of good sportsmanship, high-level fitness and being educated when it comes to the game she loves.

Those three characteristics have helped Exon guide the Baker women’s golf team to three consecutive Heart of America Athletic Conference championships, but they also help her excel personally in another sport.

Exon recently completed her fourth Missouri River 340 kayak race, which starts in Kansas City, Kansas, and ends in St. Charles, Missouri. She finished in a tie for second in the women’s solo division, clocking in at 56 hours and 54 minutes for the 340-mile race.

“I enjoy testing myself, and I appreciate what it takes for others to test themselves,” Exon said.

“If it’s a sport and there’s an expectation of good character and integrity, I really enjoy it.”

Good sportsmanship At 7 a.m. on July 28, Exon and 341 other kayakers took off from Kaw Point, where the Kansas River terminates at the Missouri River.

Exon battled extreme heat near the beginning and end of the race and had to maneuver through an evening thunderstorm during the middle stages of the event, but she found herself in a battle for second with the finish line quickly approaching.

Susan Tetter had a 15-minute lead on Exon late into the second day of the race, but the Higginsville, Missouri, native suffered from heat exhaustion and hypothermia. Exon was able to catch and pass Tetter with less than 50 miles to go, but she realized it would come down to the wire.

With 26 miles to go, the two began talking to each other for a few miles, and Exon found out Tetter was “bonking,” meaning that she was hitting a wall.

“When you bonk in an endurance sport, you are totally out of gas,” Exon said. “You are beginning to have real trouble. She was bonking. She just could not keep paddling.”

Despite her competitiveness, Exon could not allow herself to paddle away from Tetter.

“We both had our trials and tribulations, and I said, ‘What do you think about we help each other out and we paddle in together and we just tie for second?’ And she said, ‘Oh, I would really appreciate that,’” Exon said.

“That’s one of the cool things about endurance racing and ultra-marathon racing on moving water. It’s an unwritten

Fitness fanatic As a college golf coach and the president of the Kansas Women’s Golf Association, there is not a lot of time for Exon to practice kayaking, especially during the school year.

After coaching the BU women’s golf team to 26th place at the NAIA Championships in late May and working as a grounds and rules official for a tournament in Salina in early June, the Topeka native had only about five weeks to focus strictly on kayaking before the MR 340.

Exon, 62, is able to maintain a strong core between playing golf and cross-training, to go along with the time she

spends kayaking. Even when Exon is able to get off her feet while at home, that does not mean she isn’t able to get some exercise in.

“I’ve got a nine-pound bar that I could sit all day long in a paddle position and do a simulated double-weight paddle stroke with that,” she said. “If you can do that right in the front of the TV for 20 minutes and then go out and paddle on the lake or paddle on the river, you’d think that was a walk in the park.”

Exon credited her fitness as a big reason why she was able to race her second-fastest time in the MR 340 despite the tough weather conditions.

She was still feeling the effects of the 340mile trek a week removed from the race, though.

“When we go for 5560 hours on two hours

and 30 minutes of sleep and you’ve paddled at least 46 hours of that, if not more, and every hour you paddle, you burn 675 calories,” Exon said, “there’s no way to replace the calories that you burn. If you do the math, that’s like 30,000 calories thereabouts that you’re burning. For about a week after the race, you continue to drop weight, and I’ve dropped now about eight pounds, which is not altogether bad.”

Student and teacher Exon takes pride in what she is able to accomplish in both kayaking and golf, but her top priority is getting the most out of her athletes on the men’s and women’s golf teams at Baker.

Exon began her time at Baker in 1989 as a professor of history and politi-

cal science and then became the women’s golf coach in 1998 for the program’s inaugural season.

“I started the women’s golf program from nothing,” Exon said. “I agreed to start the program in 1997. In the spring of ’98, I took it to the very first Heart of America conference championship.”

In 2005, Exon took over the men’s golf program as well.

She helped the BU men’s squad to runnerup finishes in the HAAC in 2013 and 2014. After six years of coaching both the men’s and women’s golf teams along with teaching, Exon knew she had to give something up after the 2010 spring season.

“I had opportunity to take an early retirement.

At 21 years at Baker, I had never had a sabbatical because you don’t take a sabbatical when you coach,” Exon said.

“There’s just not time, there’s not manpower.

Your program would suffer if you did. So after 21 years, I needed a break. Life has been good.”

With both teams experiencing a fair share of success since Exon retired from teaching, life has been good for her student-athletes, too.

Senior Lindsey Mateer, a 13-time HAAC Golfer of the Week and 2015 individual conference champion, has been a key contributor to the Wildcats’ recent success. Mateer entered her freshman campaign fairly new to golf compared to some of her teammates, but she said Exon gave her much-needed

confidence to help her game blossom.

“She has believed in me every step of the way, and when I didn’t really believe in myself, I feel like that is how she has helped me out the most in my collegiate golf career,” Mateer said. “I started (golfing competitively) really late, so I wasn’t the best coming in freshman year. I have improved tremendously with her help.”

Mateer has also gained knowledge about golf from Exon, and the coach’s golf expertise has not gone unnoticed by others around the nation.

In February, Exon was given a two-year term as a volunteer as a rules official for the United States Golf Association.

“When the USGA finds out that you’ve scored well enough on the Rules of Golf exam and attended enough of those workshops, they’re going to want you to be a rules official at USGA qualifiers and championships,” Exon said with a laugh.

Exon has got the message across to her athletes that school comes first before golf.

Mateer and teammate Emma Tinsley were Daktronics-NAIA scholar athletes after maintaining a cumulative grade-point average of 3.5 or higher.

“Every single studentathlete in my program, whether they are a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, has exuded through the year measurable growth as a person: academically and athletically,” Exon said. “I’ve been privileged to be a part of that at some level and to witness it.”

Golf’s final major features different set of stars The Associated Press

Tiger Woods started the year with high hopes and a clean bill of health.

Rory McIlroy was the undisputed No. 1 player in the world, the winner of back-to-back majors and the overwhelming favorite to complete the career Grand Slam at the Masters and expand his trophy case of majors.

The landscape looks so much different going into the final major.

The focus at the PGA

Championship, especially at Whistling Straits, starts with the two players who have attracted the most attention in the majors this year — Jordan Spieth because he is winning them, Dustin Johnson because he is not.

They have been atop the leaderboard in 10 of the 12 rounds at the majors.

Spieth sent golf into a frenzy when two months after his wire-to-wire win at the Masters, he won the U.S. Open to become only the fourth player

since 1960 to get halfway to the Grand Slam. That came at the expense of Johnson, who had a 12foot eagle putt on the final hole at Chambers Bay only to three-putt for par and lose by one.

Johnson looked like the man to beat at St. Andrews when he took a 36-hole lead only to implode on the weekend (75-75) while Spieth made a spirited run at a third straight major.

Tied for the lead with two holes to play, he finished one shot out of a playoff.

So what to make of the 97th PGA Championship when it starts Thursday on the Pete Dye course on the Wisconsin shores of Lake Michigan?

Even with his blockbuster year, the 22-yearold Spieth still feels as though he has something to prove.

“I’ve got a little bit of revenge that I need to get out from having control of The Open Championship with two holes to go and not closing it out,” Spieth said. “...It was a

tough feeling on the flight home.”

But a return to Whistling Straits makes it impossible to ignore Johnson.

Beyond his sheer athleticism and the way he crushes the golf ball, the indelible image from the 2010 PGA Championship was Johnson in the scoring trailer, flipping around the pencil to erase the 5 he made on the final hole to presumably get into a playoff and changing it to a 7 because of a two-stroke penalty.

Whistling Straits has more bunkers than can be counted, and they cover so much of the linksstyled course that spectators are allowed to stand and walk — and even build sand castles — in portions of them. Johnson was on the 18th hole and unaware that he was in one of those bunkers when he set his 4-iron on the stand before the shot.

He was docked two shots for grounding his club, and suffered yet another close call.

The third practice of Kansas football’s 2015 preseason camp featured all kinds of memorable plays and strong efforts from players on the current KU roster.

It also featured a glimpse into the future.

In town on a visit with his father, three-star Houston linebacker Maciah Long orally committed to join the Jayhawks.

Long, who ranks as the 30th-best inside linebacker in the 2016 class and the 93rd-best player in Texas, according to Rivals.com, picked Kansas over offers from several bigtime programs, includ-

ing Ohio State, Missouri and UCLA. He is arguably the biggest pickup in the 2016 recruiting class so far for KU coach David Beaty and company.

Long, 6-foot-3, 234 pounds, credited KU defensive-line coach Calvin Thibodeaux for selling him on Kansas but also said linebackers coach Kevin Kane and Beaty played key roles.

“He did an outstanding job recruiting me, and he kept it real,” said Long of Thibodeaux in an interview with Jon Kirby of JayhawkSlant.com. “He sent me videos about KU and told me a lot about the program. He’s good at his job. We have a good relationship, and we talk a

lot throughout the week.

How he recruited me and what he did, had a big impact on my decision. He worked hard at it and that didn’t go unnoticed.”

In addition to loving the campus, the coaches and the fit, Long said one of the reasons he felt compelled to commit to Kansas on the spot was because of what he saw at practice.

“I liked the intensity,” he told Kirby. “They’ve got some great players who are working hard, and that had an impact on my visit.”

Also in attendance at Saturday’s practice was four-star Lawrence High standout Amani Bledsoe, who recently listed KU as one of his 10 finalists.

gave up six runs on 10 hits, including both of Abreu’s homers, in 52⁄3 innings.

“I couldn’t get over the hump,” Guthrie said.

“I made the game closer than it should have been.”

The Royals led 7-2 after five innings, but the White Sox batted around in a four-run sixth, which included a two-run, twoout Adam Eaton single.

Greg Holland struck out the side in the ninth to claim his 25th save in 28 opportunities.

The Royals are 9-3 against the White Sox this season.

“I don’t know if you expect this,” Whitie Sox manager Robin Ventura said, “but you know guys are going to have a bump here and there. This one, when you score that many against these guys, you have to kind of earn it. For them, they put the runs up. It’s our job to try to stop them, and right now it’s just not happening.”

STORY

New photo studio brings art form back to the community

s a kid, Jay Keim would spend many hours tinkering around his family’s at-home darkroom.

It’s where his father, an avid amateur photographer, taught him the basics of developing images on film. It’s also where Keim, now 60, first fell in love with photography.

Keim, like many of his peers, has worked primarily with digital cameras since the technology’s advent about 20 years ago.

But when the longtime Lawrence resident recently decided to revisit film, he had some trouble finding a place in town to develop it.

“I bought this film camera, figuring there was a darkroom I could use. And it turns out, there wasn’t,” says Keim, who owns and operates the recently opened Lawrence Community Photo Studio at 720 E. Ninth St., Suite 6.

The Lawrence Arts Center has a darkroom, he points out, but it’s open only to those enrolled in classes.

That’s not the case at Keim’s photo studio, where folks can rent out the darkroom, studio space and computers by the hour. “It’s for everyone,” Keim says, even “the digital guys.” Walk-ins are accepted, too, and regular patrons can even purchase membership plans to cut down costs further.

The studio also offers photography-related classes and workshops, sells cameras and supplies, and houses a large gallery space. Anyone is welcome to display work there, Keim says.

He wanted a place where experienced photographers — and those with a fledgling interest in the art form — could have easy access to facilities at a low cost, so he launched an Indiegogo campaign in the hopes of establishing what is now the Lawrence Community Photo Studio.

“We got a little bit of interest from that,” Keim says, but the money really started pouring in once Fractured Atlas, a New York City-based nonprofit that supports artists and arts organizations, took Keim’s project “under their umbrella.”

Because of the group’s 501c status, any donations made to the studio through Fractured Atlas are tax-deductable, Keim says.

Within six months, he met his original fundraising goal of $20,000 and doubled it.

Now, thanks to the additional funds, Keim says he’s going to start offering classes, which originally charged a small fee, for free — “we’re not doing it for the money,” he says.

“It’s pretty overwhelming, really. I’m still blown away by it because I didn’t think was going to happen,” Keim says of the studio’s fruition. “If I could raise enough money on the Indiegogo thing to have a little closet darkroom, I’d be happy. And then here we are a few months later, in this great space. There’s nothing like it.”

Will Rogers and prank calls come to life

T

hree Oklahoma filmmakers are going on a road trip throughout the Midwest to screen their newest projects, and they are making a stop at the Lawrence Arts Center.

The Free State Fest Film Society presents an encore performance of Free State Fest short-film favorite “Calls to Okies: The Park Grubbs Story,” as well as the 60-minute documentary “The Verdigris: In Search of Will Rogers” on Aug. 15.

With one doc being an earnest exploration of a beloved American icon, and the other celebrating illegal, obscenity-laced anarchy, this double feature is opposite in terms of tonality. But Bradley Beesley, who co-directed “Calls to Okies” and executive produced “The Verdigris” is the common thread. It was Beesley’s assistance that helped songwriter Beau Jennings expand the scope of his personal journey to learn more about Will Rogers, who is often a forgotten figure in U.S. history.

“He’s often confused with Woody Guthrie or Roy Rogers,” Jennings says.

“One thing in particular I think people forget about Will was that he was very innovative and set a precedent for what many comedians and political commentators have done since. He was the first public figure to crack a joke about a sitting U.S. president, which at the time was very risky.

He basically created the template for late-night style variety shows. He championed aviation in its infancy. You could even make the argument he was the first ‘blogger.’”

Jennings was born al-

hand for the Q&A, which will no doubt feature lots of questions about the true identity of prank-call ringleader and mystery man Park Grubbs. In “Calls to Okies,” Grubbs is shown confronting the cameraman and appears with a black bar over his eyes.

“It’s not an act,” Steinbauer says. “Park Grubbs was very skeptical of us and with the thought of sharing any personal with our eric@scene-stealers.com information cameras. On our first trip to attempt to interview him, he put his finger most 100 years to the day in our chests and said, after Rogers, and he used ‘If you ever cross me, I will come after you and to visit the Will Rogers your crew and that is a Museum often when he promise.’ He was not jokwas a child. He’s always held his Oklahoma roots ing. He’s a very private dear, and when he moved person and at the end of the day, we wanted to reto Brooklyn, that came spect his wish to remain into even sharper focus. anonymous.”

The intention was to let some of the ambient noise on the journey (wind, traffic, water) become a part of the recordings, and maybe get some images.

The idea for making some music videos came up, and eventually the entire project became a documentary. Jennings will perform some acoustic numbers from the film following the screening as part of a live Q&A. Beesley and “Calls to Okies” co-director Ben Steinbauer will also be on

MOVIE REVIEW

‘Dark Places’ channels its inner Lifetime

By Katie Walsh Tribune News Service

For those who loved the twisty and twisted narrative of last year’s “Gone Girl,” “Dark Places” — also from the mind of novelist Gillian Flynn — just might scratch that itch for mystery. But without David Fincher’s chilly auteurist touch, “Dark Places,” now playing at Liberty Hall, is just one step above a Lifetime TV movie. Not that there’s anything wrong with that: There are many pleasures to be found mucking around in this ooey-gooey murder melodrama, but high-brow this is not.

Charlize Theron, beautiful even in dirty jeans and a battered trucker cap, portrays the deeply troubled Libby Day, the only survivor of her family’s massacre, for which her brother Ben has been imprisoned since she was a child. Libby, down and out, is desperate for cash and gets drawn into an amateur “Kill Club,” a group of hobbyist true crime sleuths, led by Lyle (Nicholas Hoult).

Libby subjects herself to their curiosity for money, but their insistence on Ben’s innocence leads her down the rabbit hole of

her own memory, as she starts to question everything she believed — and testified — at Ben’s trial.

The cast is rather inexplicably stacked with talent, from Oscar-winner Theron to Corey Stoll and Tye Sheridan, who play older and younger Ben, to Christina Hendricks as the siblings’ struggling mother.

The twists, turns and reveals in the mystery sustain interest in the film, which hops between present day to the day of the murders, interspersed with Libby’s flashback of fleeing the house that night.

But, despite all the shocking developments, the resolution is rushed, and therefore farfetched and confounding. Important connections are completely passed over, and it doesn’t seem like the film even believes its own ending.

And once the mystery is over, we don’t have any reason to care about these characters, because no effort has been made to make us care about them, or even get to know them as people.

“Dark Places” is 113 minutes and rated R for some disturbing violence, language, drug use and sexual content.

multiple platinum certifications and a Grammy nomination for their prank calls, “Calls to Okies” was commercially unavailable for 11 years — and then only released on a tiny indie label. (A cassette of that release is currently selling on eBay for $100.)

“The calls certainly have a land-locked, no access to culture, ‘I know a lot of red-necks’ appeal, but many of the Okie hipsters that loved the calls moved to L.A., Seattle and New York City and spread the tapes far and wide,” Beesley says.

“We’ve shown this film in major cities and those folks love the calls and we keep meeting new die-hard fans everywhere we go. The absurdity of the calls captures people’s imaginations and some of the phrases stick with you for life — like, ‘I’m gonna bathe your entire family.’ We

think about that line and laugh weekly.”

This is a sentiment I can relate to, as several lines from this tape have found their way into my daily conversation since I first heard it back in 1991.

The other thing besides the cultural specific-ness of “Calls to Okies” that makes it unique are the surreal places that Grubbs goes to and the fact that many of the callers go right along with it — and sometimes take the calls to a new level of absurdity.

These calls are far funnier and more astonishing than anything The Jerky Boys ever did because they go way beyond pure insults, which was The Jerky Boys’ stock in trade.

To bring the calls to life, Steinbauer and Beesley decided to employ some punk-rock aesthetic animation techniques that are right in line with the guys who made the tapes back in the early ’80s.

“It’s difficult to make

a film about audio recordings, which are inherently non-visual,” Steinbauer says. “Because everyone we interviewed had their own ideas about who Park Grubbs was, we decided to work with a team of very talented animators — Ron Pippin, Shiny Object and Ben Lee — who all brought their own unique rendering of who the man was behind the legendary recordings.”

It’s a strategy that works well, and the screening I saw of the film at Free State Fest in June had people howling with laughter. My only complaint with the movie is that, at 20 minutes, there isn’t enough time to include all of my favorite calls.

“Calls to Okies: The Park Grubbs Story” and “The Verdigris: In Search of Will Rogers” screen at 8 p.m. Aug. 15 at the Lawrence Arts Center, followed by a filmmaker Q&A and live acoustic performance from Beau Jennings. Tickets are $10.

T

his fall, Amazon will release an original series adaptation of “The Man in the High Castle,” Philip K. Dick’s classic depiction of a postwar world ruled by the Nazis and Japanese.

Hearing this, I headed for the basement to track down my old copy, a paperback on the inside cover of which I had scrawled my name and “1995,” the year I read it. No wonder all I could remember was how much I loved it.

Twenty years on I’ve finished it again, just as the calendar marks passage of another anniversary: the 70th since the end of World War II. Set in the San Francisco of a 1962 that never occurred, “The Man in the High Castle” creates as disturbing a counter-factual America as Kevin Willmott’s mock vision of a South victorious in the Civil War, “C.S.A.” Franklin D. Roosevelt has been killed by the same assassin’s bullet that missed him in “our” 1933, and after a subsequent cascade of historical divergences, the Japanese rule the West Coast, a German puppet

SHELF LIFE

DAN COLEMAN regime governs the eastern states and a demilitarized zone encompasses the Rockies. Slavery is legal; the Nazi genocide of Jews continues in America, and the Germans have destroyed Africa in a horrific spasm of racist imperialism.

Thus vanquished, ordinary Americans struggle on as secondclass citizens, turning for guidance to the “I Ching,” an ancient Chinese oracle whose wisdom, in the form of opaque, poetic passages, can be divined by tossing coins or manipulating yarrow stalks.

Another mysterious book seems to be on everyone’s mind, as well: a novel called

“The Grasshopper Lies Heavy,” which presents a strangely realistic mirror world, in which the Allies won the war, and whose author, the so-called “man in the high castle,” lives secluded in a mountain fortress, toward which a dreamlike pilgrimage provides much of the action in the book we’re reading.

If that’s not enough bookwithin-a-book for you, Dick used the “I Ching” to write “The Man in the High Castle,” so while we sometimes hear an author say that a book “wrote itself,” this is the only book I know of written by another book.

Dick was not afraid to accept the help; he would later draw inspiration from an extraterrestrial consciousness he called “VALIS” (Vast Active Living Intelligence System) with which he claimed to communicate directly, and his 944-page “Exegesis,” not exactly a cover-to-cover read, veers between coherent and bat-guano bonkers.

Dick struggled with those extremes in his own life, an eventful tangle of Benzedrine-fueled word binges, financial woes, failed marriages, and a suicide attempt.

“The Man in the High Castle,” published in 1962, won the Hugo and is generally considered to be the masterpiece among his many novels and short stories.

That body of work may have spawned more films than any other, including treatments by such heavyweight directors as Richard Linklater (“A Scanner

Darkly”), Steven Spielberg (“Minority Report”), and Ridley Scott, who is executive producer of the new Amazon adaptation, and whose “Blade Runner” is based on Dick’s novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”

I’m not sure what I like most about “The Man in the High Castle”: it’s at once a straightforward suspense novel, historical thought experiment, and morality play.

But most of all, it’s just plain weird, and gets you pondering all the many ways things could have turned out, for your country or yourself, but for a bullet’s straying a few more feet, a help wanted ad ignored, an email unsent.

I think of my wife’s grandfather, who survived a bad Nazi shot to appear in a photo seven decades later with his 12 great-grandchildren, my son and daughter among them. I think of all my own decisions, accidents and accidental decisions since the last time I read “The Man in the High Castle,” and wonder what other alternatives may be playing out through time in universes unseen.

Then my head starts to hurt. I write “2015” in my old copy and put it back on its basement bookshelf. Better leave questions like that to the “I Ching.”

BOOK REVIEW

In ‘Days of Awe,’ novelist Lauren Fox finds wit in losses

By Jim Higgins Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Like that lethal dude Liam Neeson plays in the movies, novelist Lauren Fox (“Still Life With Husband,” “Friends Like Us”) has honed a very particular set of skills.

She takes women who are falling apart and pulls wit, snark, pith, and occasional insight out of them.

No contemporary novelist makes me stop as often to mark or admire one of her sentences. Plenty of people can write limpid or fancy prose, but Fox ladles out one flavorful reduction of human angst and misery after another.

The possible line of inspirational coffee mugs derived from her new novel, “Days of Awe,” will include such perky thoughts as “You can’t preserve anything; every happy

moment is already on its way to becoming nostalgia” and “Death smashes a crater into your life, and you’re left alone to sort through the rubble.”

“Days of Awe” draws its title from the period of the solemn introspection urged upon Jews between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, though Fox’s narrator, Isabel Applebaum Moore, also experiences gentler moments of wonder and appreciation.

Occasionally, her novel makes me think, perhaps incongruously, of Ford Madox Ford’s “The Good Soldier,” another sad story of two couples falling apart.

The novel opens at the funeral of Josie, Isabel’s

fellow middle-school teacher, who died in a late-night car crash. “She would always be my wild, grieving, huge-hearted, selfish, confident, insecure, extravagant best friend,” Isabel tells us.

M o v i n g backward and forward, Isabel recounts the history of their friendship while unraveling the skein of events and decisions that led to her death.

Josie had been married to Mark, Isabel’s childhood buddy and Hebrew school classmate; Izzy and her husband, the gentle gentile Chris, often hung out with them. The more outgoing Josie seizes Isabel as a BFF on the day they meet,

bonding over inanities at a faculty meeting; readers will detect, almost immediately, edgy and manic notes in her behavior.

Intersecting the horizontal axis of the couples, Fox gives us the vertical of Izzy with her mother Helene and her daughter Hannah, 11 at the outset.

Were “Days of Awe” the pilot script for a TV series, elderly actresses would throw elbows to audition for Helene, who escaped the Holocaust as a little girl, unlike her relatives, and lets no one, particularly Izzy, forget that. Eyeballing a contender for Izzy’s affection, Helene whispers to her, “Is he the kind of person who would hide us in an attic?” Hearing about a blond girl assigned to work with her seventh-grade daughter on a school project, Helene muses, “Krakowski.

Just make sure her family didn’t put our family into the ovens.”

But Helene, in the aftermath of a stroke, faces her own diminishment gloomily, unnerving Izzy, the 43-year-old daughter who still depends on her emotionally.

As for the stormy Hannah, she is Izzy’s only child, born in the midst of multiple miscarriages. In a novel that depicts a woman processing several kinds of losses, none hit harder in fewer words than these: “I didn’t think of them as babies. They weren’t.

They were pieces of me, though: secrets, sweet hazy dreams, the thrumming anticipation of surprises.

I guarded them tenderly, selfishly, and so when they were gone I grieved them like amputations, silent deaths, down, down, deep at the center of me.”

Summer nights, I smelled your pipe tobacco waft onto my patio smelling as sweet as homemade fudge.

We enjoyed nudging with a joke when we met in public, a wave across our yards over decades of shared mowing, kids playing too loudly – then grown, moved on and out.

I didn’t speak to you that last time at the store.

You didn’t see me as you made your way down aisle number three, so I slipped away. I could tell by your stooped form and gray complexion that you were not well.

I bypass newspaper obits, too many familiar names among the list, another just this week.

Neighbors told me of your passing.

I would have come to your funeral you know, or at least have written you a poem.

Instead, here I sit. Still, I wait.

— Ronda Miller, of Lawrence

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION

By Lucas Wetzel

A place for good jazz, eats; Starlight ‘lets it go’

S

ince the days of Charlie Parker and Count Basie, Kansas City has enjoyed a reputation as a jazz town. But these days one of the most reliable venues to see different jazz bands every night isn’t a nightclub — it’s the restaurant and lounge of a swank hotel on the Country Club Plaza.

Chaz on the Plaza, located within the Raphael Hotel at 325 Ward Parkway, is an upscale restaurant and bar that routinely hosts Kansas City’s finest working jazz musicians for evening concerts and weekend jazz brunches.

The granite surfaces, modern furniture and glass panels create a formal but inviting ambiance, and a large-scale mural featuring photographs of Plaza landmarks creates a strong sense of local identity.

Executive Chef Charles d’Ablaing and Sous Chef Ian Denney have created a menu that combines French culinary tradition with regional specialties such as beef tenderloin and a Kansas City Strip Steak.

The cocktail menu is

befitting of a jazz club, with specialties including the Hazy Hayden (Basil Hayden bourbon, cinnamon simple syrup and sassafras, in a smokefilled glass), the KC Manhattan (made with Rieger whiskey) and a peach and basil Moscow Mule.

Dining specials include Saturday and Sunday brunch, a Sunday prime rib special, multi-course dinners for two on Tuesdays for $90 a couple, and a two-course dinner paired with wine or a cocktail on Thursdays for $40 per person. A happy hour running from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday features drink specials and halfprize appetizers.

As for live music, upcoming performers include the Mengel Brothers, a cello and viola duo that performs every Sunday evening; the jazz violin and viola of Kansas City Symphony performer Marvin Gruenbaum along with jazz pianist Roger Wilder (6 p.m. Aug. 12); jazz singer Megan Birdsall (7 p.m. Aug. 14); mambo group Miguel DeLeon

day at Starlight Theatre.

Part of the cast of “Rent” and “Wicked,” Menzel’s most recent star turn came in the form of Elsa in the Disney hit “Frozen,” which featured the hit single “Let It Go.” Tickets are $25 and up at kcstarlight.com.

The next night, Kentucky rockers My Morning Jacket will play a 7:30 p.m. set at Starlight featuring opening group Hippo Campus. MMJ is known for its long sets and energetic performances, and fans of the group can expect to get their money’s worth for the $45 ticket price.

Stubborn husband may need â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;trainingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Dear Annie: My husband likes to unclick his seatbelt as soon as we get out of traffic.

Then the seatbelt-violation warning starts pinging, and goes on and on while we drive up our driveway or into a parking lot.

I told him once that if he wants to ride with me, then he needs to leave his seatbelt buckled until the car is parked. That worked for two trips. Months later, when he removed his seatbelt as we were exiting the interstate, I stopped the car right there and said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I guess you need to get out now.â&#x20AC;? He chuckled, but nothing changed.

We will be driving to Alaska in a couple of months, spending five days in the car together. How am I supposed to survive this seatbelt situation? I already

Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

asked my mechanic to disconnect the warning signal, but he said that would violate my car manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Alaska or Bust Dear Alaska: The reason the pinging is so annoying is to modify the behavior of people like your husband.

Since it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother him, however, we suggest â&#x20AC;&#x153;trainingâ&#x20AC;? him the way you would a child. It does no good for you to threaten to kick him out of the car

Redford narrates new travel series Robert Redford, who barely uttered a word in the 2013 drama â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Is Lost,â&#x20AC;? narrates the new series â&#x20AC;&#x153;America, the Beautifulâ&#x20AC;? (6 and 6:30 p.m., Travel). The actor and environmentalist lends his voice to this travelogue series that puts the spotlight on Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural wonders, both well-known and obscure.

The first installment follows a hang-glider hovering 3,000 feet over the Yosemite Valley. In the second, daredevils walk wires stretched 400 feet above the floor of the Mineral Canyon in Canyonlands National Park, a place where ranchers share territory with artifacts from an ancient American civilization.

The production company behind â&#x20AC;&#x153;Americaâ&#x20AC;? is working on an IMAX film about the National Parks to be released in 2016, so look for gorgeous photography and the kind of soaring camera work thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best appreciated in 3-D.

We interrupt the dog days of summer for a touch of autumn sports. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings meet in the NFL preseason Hall of Fame Game (7 p.m., NBC) in Canton, Ohio. This matchup marks the beginning of pro footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preseason and its emphasis on chatter, prediction and prognostication. The game coincides with the induction of veterans into the NFL Hall of Fame.

The next preseason game on NBC will take place on Aug. 30, when the Arizona Cardinals and Oakland Raiders tangle.

The first regular season â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sunday Night Footballâ&#x20AC;? game takes place on Thursday, Sept. 10, the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opener between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots. This is not to be confused with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thursday Night Footballâ&#x20AC;? airing on CBS and the NFL Network. Its first game is between the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs, scheduled for Sept. 17.

Got that?

The second incarnation of â&#x20AC;&#x153;True Detectiveâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., HBO) wraps up its season. Like many, I was enthralled by the first season of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Detectiveâ&#x20AC;? and baffled and bored by the first two episodes of this current installment. Some have told me that it â&#x20AC;&#x153;got better,â&#x20AC;? some three hours into its tale.

Tonightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other highlights

Karen and George focus

on Niska on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Humansâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., AMC).

Todd must escape new snowdrifts or risk freezing overnight on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ice Road Truckersâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., History). Now thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some summer viewing!

Lori Loughlin and Cheryl Ladd star in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garage Sale Mystery: The Wedding Dressâ&#x20AC;? (8 p.m., Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel).

on the side of the highway if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t follow through. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hollow threat and he knows it. Instead, tell him the car wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t move until he puts his seatbelt back on and sit there as long as you need to. The other option, of course, is for one of you to find a separate mode of transportation.

Dear Annie: Can you tell me how to dispose of an old Bible? I have asked three ministers and they all said they did not know. I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t heard back.

The Bible is simply worn out. The cover is missing and some of the pages are torn. I have three other Bibles and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need more.

One friend told me to just put it in the garbage, another said to wrap it in newspaper and tie it up before putting it in the garbage. I

UNIVERSAL CROSSWORD Universal Crossword Edited by Timothy E. Parker August 9, 2015

donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think putting it in the garbage is right. After all, if we arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t supposed to put our countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flag in the garbage, then why would we do that to a Bible? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no less important. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; O. Dear O.: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve posed an interesting question. There is no single answer for the proper disposal of a Christian Bible too worn to be donated.

However, the general consensus is to wrap it and then bury it. While the Bible itself is not an object of worship, it should still be treated in a respectful manner.

You also can ask your minister if you can bring the Bible to your church for appropriate disposal. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or Annieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mailbox, P.O. Box 118190 Chicago, IL 60611.

For Sunday, Aug. 9: This year you see at least one of your long-term desires become a reality. The tone of your friendships becomes lighter. If you are single, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll meet many potential sweeties, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t commit if you are not sure. If you are attached, the two of you will enjoy relating to each other more than you have in many years.

The stars show the kind of day youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You make a point of explaining recent events in a way that others can identify with. You bring good news wherever you go.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Take your time, and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow others to even think of pushing you. Tonight: Try being a couch potato.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Zero in on what you want to accomplish. Make sure you do what you want right now.

Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Initiate a long-overdue chat with a friend that you have been putting off. Use caution with someone you meet today. Tonight: A must appearance.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your mind seems to drift to different vistas and people.

Think things through before taking action. Tonight: Tap into your imagination.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is the perfect day to isolate the apple of your eye and initiate a long-overdue conversation. Tonight: Dinner for two!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Listen to what others are sharing. Others seem a bit selfinvolved. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be very preoccupied with thinking of someone you care about. Clear your mind. Tonight: At a new dinner spot.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You finally have the time you desire with a loved one.
