New RESEARCH on old RAID

College Republicans: End capital punishment

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock

Topeka — The Kansas Federation of College Republicans recently voted unanimously to adopt a resolution calling for repeal of the state’s death penalty law, a sign that capital punishment may be on its last legs in the state.

“More young conservatives like myself recognize that our broken and fallible system of capital punishment in no way matches up with our conservative values,” Dalton Glasscock, a Wichita State University student and chairman of the federation, said in a news release Thursday.

The night of Aug. 21, 1863, William Clarke Quantrill and his band of 300 to 400 pro-Confederacy guerrillas descended upon the sleeping abolitionist town of Lawrence.

During the historic raid, which lasted about four hours, around 180 men and boys were killed and more than 200 buildings were burned to the ground.

Lawrence’s fate was forever changed.

(George Collamore) may have been the only Lawrence mayor to die in office, certainly the only one to be killed under violent circumstances, and we can at least memorialize him by getting the right location where he died.”

here are a multitude of reasons why Lawrence City Hall may be interested in a few more coins.

Sure, there are the obvious budgetary reasons. But these days just as important is that an extra quarter may come in handy for flipping to break 2-2 ties on a shorthanded City Commission. See Tuesday night. Regardless, city commissioners soon will have to decide whether a proposed shopping center south of the South Lawrence Trafficway is a good way for the community to get a few more coins.

Library wins national honor

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @conrad_swanson

The Lawrence Public Library building has been named a Landmark Library as a part of a 2015 contest by Library Journal.

The library was one of 11 on the list of landmark establishments. The publication examined 80 libraries completed between 2010 and 2014.

Library Director Brad Allen said Thursday he was pleased

to hear the facility was on the list of landmark libraries.

“It’s nice to get some recognition on a job well done, and it’s something that’s exciting for the town,” he said.

The magazine describes landmark libraries as those that “have reimagined services, space, collections and programming in ways that engage communities and celebrate creativity.”

“By ending the death penalty, Kansas has an opportunity to promote a culture of life and fiscal responsibility. As Republicans — whether young or old — this is a smart reform that we should support,” he said.

The vote was significant because the law has remained on the books largely because of support from older conservative Republicans in the Legislature.

Eric Pahls, president of the Kansas University College Republicans, said he thinks there is a generational shift occurring among young Republicans who see a conflict between supporting the death penalty and calling oneself “pro-life.”

“I think if, as Republicans, we call ourselves pro-life, that is from birth through natural death, not from birth until we decide your life is less important or less valuable,” Pahls said.

In recent years the death penalty has become more of a divisive issue, even within GOP ranks, largely because of the cost of death penalty trials and the fact that in the 23 years since Kansas reinstated the death penalty, no condemned prisoners have yet been put to death.

Last year, the Kansas Republican Party removed a statement supporting the death penalty from its official platform, but it has not adopted an alternative statement calling for its repeal.

But support for the law has always been thin in the Kansas Legislature.

When Democrat John Carlin was governor from 1979 to 1987, he vetoed at least three death penalty bills sent to him by the Republican-controlled Legislature.

But when Republican Mike Hayden, a death penalty supporter, succeeded him in office, no death penalty bill reached his desk because many of the same legislators who voted for it when Carlin was governor switched positions and voted no once they knew the governor would sign it.

Hayden was succeeded by Democrat Joan Finney, whose position on the death penalty was never clear. She had said she would allow a death penalty bill to become law without her signature if lawmak-

ers could pass a bill.

That finally happened in 1992, her last year in office. The votes were 67-58 in the House and 22-18 in the Senate.

Since then, bills have been introduced in several legislative sessions to repeal the law, but none has ever passed with a majority in either chamber.

Meanwhile, the Kansas Supreme Court has overturned all but one death sentence that it has reviewed. The only death penalty case it upheld was in 2014 in a case involving a man, William Hollister, who had already died in prison of natural causes while his appeal was pending.

During the 2015 session, more Republicans began voicing support for a repeal. But Democrats offered little support, mainly because the main lobby group supporting it, the Kansas Coalition Against the Death Penalty, hired Gov. Sam Brownback’s former chief of staff, David Kensinger, as its lobbyist.

Kensinger also runs a political consulting firm that had actively campaigned to defeat Democratic legislators.

Other Republicans have said they are seeing a shift in opinion among GOP voters.

“Recently, I’ve seen more Republicans reconsider their views on the death penalty and come to oppose it,” said Edward O’Brien, of Tonganoxie, the state party’s Second District vice chairman. “I’m encouraged to see young people, committed to protecting life, leading the GOP in the right direction on this issue.”

The last execution in Kansas took place on June 22, 1965, when convicted murderers George York and James Latham were hanged at Lansing Correctional Facility.

LAWRENCE • STATE

Raid CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

In the 152 years since that deadly day most aspects of the raid have been reported, analyzed, dissected and taught, but recently new details have come to light — including the actual location where the town’s mayor died.

While the raid was meant to wreak general havoc upon Lawrence, Quantrill’s band likely had several specific targets as well, selected for their political beliefs and actions, said Katie Armitage, a Lawrence historian. Among them were the Rev. Richard Cordley; Charles Robinson, the first governor of Kansas; and John Speer, who ran an anti-slavery newspaper.

“The raiders supposedly had a list of leaders they were trying to get, and Mayor (George) Collamore would certainly have been on it,” Armitage said.

While Cordley, Robinson and Speer all escaped the deadly raiders, Collamore did not, Armitage said. Seeking a hiding place, he scrambled into his well as his home burned. And there he died.

“He was overcome by the bad air, the fumes,” Armitage said. “Of course his great friend Joseph Lowe tried to go down and see about him, but fell from a rope and drowned.

And then another helper.

Three men died in that well.”

For the past 50 or so years, Collamore’s home was believed to be located near the intersection of Seventh and Louisiana

streets, said Tom Arnold, a volunteer at the Watkins Museum of History. But after Arnold was given the task of uploading old documents into an electronic database, he discovered that the house was actually a block to the north, at 515 W. Sixth St. “Going through all of (the museum’s) Quantrill’s Raid files document by document, I came across some survivors’ accounts that appeared to conflict with the collective wisdom that the home was at 646 Louisiana,” Arnold said.

After confirming his suspicions with old property records and longburied pieces of information, Arnold said he’s confident Collamore’s home was actually on the northeast corner of Sixth and Louisiana streets.

“The house at 646 Louisiana that everybody thinks is the location he died never had any association with Collamore,” Arnold said. “He may have been the only Lawrence mayor to die in office, certainly the only one to be killed under violent circumstances, and we can at least memorialize him by getting the right location where he died.”

After taking a look at Arnold’s findings, Armitage gave the new information her seal of approval, she said.

While local architect and scholar Dennis Domer said he doesn’t

feel Quantrill’s Raid is at all the most significant piece of Lawrence history, its impact can be seen by taking a simple walk down Massachusetts Street.

So much of the town was burned down during the raid that it changed the face of Lawrence, Domer said. Instead of using timber to build they began looking to iron.

“It was a turning point in Lawrence’s history,” he said. “A rebuilding point especially. Since all those buildings were gone, burned down, most people had to resort to different architecture.”

One of the many reasons why it’s important to remember Quantrill’s Raid, Armitage said, is because of its historical significance, especially with respect to the nation’s Civil War and the great inner turmoil that shaped the country.

“We hope to learn about how these terrible things happened,” she said. “And it would be great if we could avoid them in the future.”

Arnold added that Lawrence’s ability to survive the deadly raid — and thrive afterward — is another thing to keep in mind on the anniversary.

“I think it’s a significant part of the town’s crest, a phoenix rising from the ashes,” he said. “For the town to have survived and come back is a point of pride related to the city’s heritage.”

Old Navy seems to fit into that category, as does Designer Shoe Warehouse. l Two general merchandise stores totaling 17,500 square feet. At one point there had been at least some interest from Sam’s Club in the site. But that’s not enough space to even contain Sam’s wallet.

As we previously have reported an out-of-state development group has filed plans to build a new shopping center at the southeast corner of the SLT and Iowa Street interchange. The project would have about 250,000 square feet of space for new businesses.

No official word on the proposed tenants, but previously the development group has said Academy Sports, Old Navy, Marshalls/Home Goods, Designer Shoe Warehouse and other smaller retailers want to come to the site.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission will hear arguments for and against the project at its Monday evening meeting at City Hall.

The big news on the project this week is that the city’s professional planning staff is recommending approval of the project. But ultimately, city commissioners — whether it be four of them or five of them — will make the final decision on whether the project wins the necessary rezoning and planning approvals.

Impact around town The city staff has done its own study of how the project may impact the local retail market.

It makes an important observation about what to expect in the future: “If this project is approved, other approved, yet undeveloped commercial nodes may have to extend their development time frames in order to attract retail tenants, thus potentially underserving these areas of the community,” the report finds.

This is probably the key political point on this project: How much will it delay development in other parts of town? In particular, there is a concern about whether this development will slow development around Rock Chalk Park. There was

Two 18-year-old men were charged in Douglas County District Court Thursday in connection with an alleged attempted armed robbery early Wednesday morning.

Wesley James Tolbert, of Baldwin City, and Caston James Coleman, of Lawrence, were charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated

robbery and attempted aggravated robbery.

Coleman, who as a juvenile was convicted of felony possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, was also charged with criminal possession of a firearm by a felon.

It also comes at a time when there is internal wrangling within the party over whether it should try to “re-brand� itself going into the 2016 elections, and whether Democrats should offer more concrete proposals on policy issues rather than simply criticizing Brownback and the Republicans over theirs.

On June 4, County Administrator Craig Weinaug told the county’s Board of Construction Appeals that he was recommending to the commission a third-party review.

He wanted the third-party consultant to determine whether building inspectors took actions outside the county’s authority regarding a house that Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach was building in rural northern Douglas County without obtaining a permit.

Jim Sherman, the former zoning and codes direc-

tor, did not require Kobach to pay a fine for building without the permit, and Kobach was given a certificate of occupancy, despite what some employees in the county codes office described as several irregularities in the inspection process, including not having an approved water source.

Sherman resigned from his position on June 29 and accepted a job with the city of Ottawa.

On July 8, the commission asked the staff to look into hiring an independent consultant to examine the county’s Zoning and Codes Department.

Commissioners discussed an outline of goals for the department including: l To complete inspec-

That “schism,” as Reeves has called it, was on full display at the party’s last Washington Days convention in Topeka, where western Kansas Democrats such as former House Minority Leader Dennis McKinney openly criticized party leaders for focusing almost exclusively on urban voters while ignoring places like southeast Kansas, which was once a Democratic stronghold.

McKinney said that attitude was illustrated when Dakota Loomis, the party’s former communications director, posted an online comment about “craphole small towns” in southeast Kansas.

More recently, the party’s new chairman, Larry Meeker, has been actively trying to re-brand the party, but those efforts appear to be ruffling even more feathers.

Meeker was quoted this week in The Pitch, a Kansas City-based alternative newspaper, as saying he wanted to change the party’s name to “Red State Democrats,” dropping the word “Kansas,” while portraying themselves as fiscal conservatives.

In a Wichita Eagle article Wednesday, Meeker walked back from that statement, saying he was misinterpreted. But he went on to say that Democrats need to acknowledge that Kansas is a Republican state. And he tried to distance the state party from the national party by saying the typical Kansas Democrat would be considered a moderate Republican in states like California and Massachusetts.

Whether that comparison is accurate or not, Reeves said it did not sit well with the party’s financial donor base. And it also helped expose another rift within the party over efforts, both in election campaigns and in the Legislature, to form coalitions with moderate Republicans rather than pushing hard for a Democratic agenda.

Those are issues likely to be discussed, although more likely in private conversations than in public speeches, when the party gathers this weekend in Wichita.

Plinsky said at the July 8 meeting that she hoped to bring back a proposal and plan on how to proceed within two or three weeks.

But with recent vacations in the office and other work duties, including getting a county budget approved, drafting the report has taken longer than expected, she said this week.

Larryville Life’s

Weekend Picks These event recommendations were taken from Larryville Life’s Weekend Picks blog, which appears each week on Lawrence.com. For more events, visit Lawrence.com/larryvillelife.

940 Live: Starhaven Rounders Cowboy Cabaret, 7:30 p.m.

Saturday at Lawrence Arts Center “Cowboy Cabaret” seems like an odd and unexpected combination of words, but this event from LAC’s typically-excellent 940 Live music series is shaping up to be a memorable evening.

The Facebook event page promises “a feel good, honky-tonk, variety show, featuring fun and faithful interpretations of classic country and western songs, burlesque performances, audience participation and laughs for everyone.”

We’ve had several good times listening to KC’s Starhaven Rounders play their country covers on the Replay patio. Mix in a bevy of special guests (including Drakkar Sauna’s Jeff Stolz and the members of Maria the Mexican) and this should become a good old-fashioned Saturday night hootenanny.

Reggae by the River, noon to 11 p.m. Saturday at Burcham Park Summer is waning but the music festivals aren’t quite over. Head to Burcham Park for the first-ever Reggae by the River, an event presented by the Lawrence Community Fest organization.

One can of food (but be kind and bring several) is the only cover charge for this otherwise free event

that seeks to collect 5,000 cans of food for needy Douglas County residents.

Twenty food vendors are slated to be on hand, as well as a “Farmer’s Community Vending Village” in the afternoon.

Taproom Poetry Series, 5 p.m. Sunday at the Eighth Street Taproom According to a 2014 piece in The New Yorker, the work of Steve Roggenbuck might be similar to Roggenbuck what Walt Whitman would produce if he were alive and “vlogging.” The New Yorker terms Roggenbuck a true “Internet poet” in that his poetry “is made, distributed, and viewed almost exclusively on the Web, taking the form of tweets, Facebook posts, YouTube videos and image macros.”

In addition to The New Yorker, Roggenbuck’s work has been discussed by media outlets from Rolling Stone to The Guardian, and an exhibit of his videos is currently on display at the New Museum’s 2015 Triennial.

Local writers Liz James and Zach Webb round out the bill along with an open-mic reading.

sion of a firearm charge, he could spend up to 23 months in prison, depending on his criminal history.

Tolbert currently has a pending marijuana possession charge in municipal court, according to prosecutors.

Douglas County Judge Pro Tem James George set both men’s bonds at $75,000 after the state said that amount was “reasonable because firearms were involved.”

When asked, the defendants had nothing to say in regard to reducing that state-requested bond amount.

Both Tolbert and Coleman remained in the Douglas County Jail Thursday.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office declined to release Tolbert’s and Coleman’s booking photos.

suspects had allegedly been seen with covered faces and weapons, including a semi-automatic rifle, outside an apartment in the 1300 block of Westbrooke Street around 4 a.m.

When a responding officer arrived, the group fled, running in different directions and onto the Orchards Golf Course, 3000 Bob Billings Parkway. Investigating officers eventually found the suspects, plus two weapons allegedly discarded by the fleeing men.

According to charging documents, Tolbert and Coleman received the conspiracy charge for allegedly agreeing to commit aggravated robbery “and (driving) to the target’s residence.”

Tolbert and Coleman received the at-

tempted aggravated robbery charge for allegedly “gather(ing) disguises and weapons” and bringing them to “the target’s residence.”

The other two suspects are in custody, as well, but are juveniles. Because of their juvenile status — one is 17 and the other is 16 — police cannot release their names, Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said.

Cheryl Wright Kunard, assistant to the Douglas County district attorney, said she could not comment on the juveniles’ charges.

If Tolbert and Coleman are convicted of conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery and attempted aggravated robbery, they could spend up to 136 months in prison for each count, depending on their criminal histories. Both men have juvenile criminal records, according to prosecutors.

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Envious grandma should put grandson first Dear Annie: I am a 29-year-old married woman with a 14-month-old son.

My husband and I live one hour away from his father and stepmother, “Gladys,” and two hours away from my parents. We all get along great.

When I decided to go back to work, both my mother and Gladys volunteered to watch my son two days apiece.

I pay a neighbor to watch him the remaining day, especially since she has two kids of her own and I want my son to have some socialization.

It’s a perfect setup, and everyone is happy except for my husband’s mother, who lives in another state.

She is furious that I allow Gladys to watch my son, stating that

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

she is “not really his grandma” and that “she will never love him like a real grandma should.”

My mother-in-law wants me to have the neighbor watch my son for the two days Gladys is now taking, and she even offered to pay my neighbor so it would not come out of my pocket.

My husband has a close relationship with his mother and a polite one with Gladys.

Star-studded start to the weekend Selena Gomez will host the 2015 We Day Special (7 p.m., ABC). We Day highlights issues that young people are passionate about and showcases individuals making a difference in their communities. Look for appearances by Jennifer Hudson, Common, The Band Perry, Tyrese Gibson, Demi Lovato, Nick Jonas, Colbie Caillat, Paul Rudd and Macklemore.

In a move both innovative and entirely natural, “The Late Late Show With J a m e s Corden” (11:35 p.m., CBS) will present a show produced inside the YouTube Space LA, a new studio with an audience that TV broadcasters and moviemakers surely envy.

Corden will interview and play along with YouTube personalities with channels of their own, including Jenna Marbles, Tyler Oakley, Kandee Johnson, “the Slow Mo Guys” Gavin Free and Daniel Gruchy, “Epic Rap Battles of History” creators Peter Shukoff and Lloyd Ahlquist, as well as the band Boyce Avenue.

“HelloBeautiful Interludes Live: Jill Scott” (9 p.m., TV One) presents performance footage of the R&B star at the Fillmore Theatre, near Washington, D.C. In interviews, she discusses her latest album “WOMAN.”

“Fox News Reporting: Timeline of Hurricane Katrina” (9 p.m.) recalls the 2005 natural disaster and its aftermath. Look for vintage clips as well as interviews with several Fox News anchors and correspondents, including Shepard Smith, Bill Hemmer and Greta Van Susteren. There are also interviews with former President George W. Bush, former White House chief of staff Andrew Card, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu and former FEMA director Michael Brown.

Directed by Frederick Wiseman, the documentary “National Gallery” (8 p.m., PBS) takes viewers on a threehour tour of London’s majestic art museum. Presented without narration or musical score, the film shifts focus from the Old Masters to craftsmen cleaning old canvases and repairing gilded frames, museum employees quietly buffing the floors and gaggles of school children listening to the drone of tour guides.

Wiseman’s films are often epic in length and languid in pace, with a studied, unobtrusive style. Some viewers delight in his immersive style, while others balk at his “watching paint dry” approach.

Tonight’s other highlights

A conspiracy forms to stop

Kindzi on “Defiance” (7 p.m., Syfy).

Mercenaries have a dangerous agenda on “Dark Matter” (9 p.m., Syfy).

His mother never allowed him to get close to his stepmother, even though she didn’t come into the picture until years after the divorce.

He’s on the fence about this arrangement. But, Annie, I love Gladys. She is a retired kindergarten teacher who is wonderful with my son.

My mother-in-law is giving me a headache over this. I always thought we had a good relationship and her demands really blindsided me.

Now she’s angry that I have allowed Gladys to have a relationship with our son altogether.

I haven’t mentioned any of this to Gladys, but I’m sure she’d be heartbroken.

She truly loves our son and he loves her.

EDITORIALS

Positive legacy CEO Gene Meyer has presided over a period of dynamic progress at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

L

awrence Memorial Hospital has prospered during 18 years of Gene Meyer’s leadership.

Meyer announced this week that he would retire as LMH’s president and CEO in May 2016. He will be difficult to replace, but finding a new top leader for LMH will be easier because of the legacy of support and excellence that Meyer and his staff have built during his tenure.

The last two decades have been a time of considerable turmoil and uncertainty for American health care. Just before Meyer arrived at LMH, the community had weathered an emotional debate and eventual rejection of efforts by Columbia/HCA Healthcare first to invest in LMH and later to build a competing forprofit hospital in Lawrence.

At that time, the future of a non-profit hospital like LMH seemed unsure. LMH was struggling financially and looking for leadership. The press release announcing Meyer’s retirement noted that LMH operated at a loss during his first two years on the job, but since that time, the hospital has grown in many areas, including financial stability.

LMH recorded 211,289 patient visits last year, more than double the 85,000 visits in 1997, the year Meyer was hired.

The LMH workforce has grown from 850 in 1997 to 1,411 today. That staff is needed to handle the dramatic increase in facilities and services now available at LMH, including expanded oncology services, an interventional cardiology program, an acute rehabilitation unit and a wound healing center. These units provide care that local residents previously would have had to travel out of town to receive. LMH also was designated as a Level IV Trauma Center in 2014 and a Primary Stroke Center in 2012.

Expanded high-quality services have helped LMH build a reputation for excellence that has inspired strong community support. Through sound management and private giving, LMH has been able to reinvest more than $201 million in hospital facilities and add 200,000 square feet of new space to accommodate new services. During Meyer’s years as CEO, the LMH endowment has grown from $1.9 million to $11 million.

In his retirement announcement, Meyer was quick to give credit to his leadership team and other members of the LMH staff for their skill and dedication. It’s true that the accomplishments of the last 18 years weren’t achieved by Meyer alone, but his commitment to making LMH a truly excellent community hospital set the tone.

Meyer certainly has reason to be proud of his record and accomplishments at LMH. His leadership has left the hospital in a strong position to attract another top leader who can continue to expand LMH’s reputation and services.

Trump immigration plan off base “This was not a subject that was on anybody’s mind until I brought it up at my announcement.”

— Donald Trump, on immigration, Republican debate, Aug. 6 Washington — Not on anyone’s mind? For years, immigration has been the subject of near-constant, often bitter argument within the GOP. But it is true that Trump has brought the debate to a new place — first, with his announcement speech, about

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

So instead of debating border security, guestworker programs and sanctuary cities — where Republicans are on firm moral and political ground — they are forced into a debate about a repulsive fantasy.” whether Mexican migrants are really rapists, and now with the somewhat more nuanced Trump plan.

Much of it — visa tracking, E-Verify, withholding funds from sanctuary cities — predates Trump. Even building the Great Wall is not particularly new. (I, for one, have been advocating that in this space since 2006.) Dominating the discussion, however, are his two policy innovations: (a) abolition of birthright citizenship and (b) mass deportation.

Birthright citizenship. If you are born in the United States, you are an American citizen. So says the 14th Amendment. Barring some esoteric and radically new jurisprudence, abolition would require amending the Constitution. Which would

take years and great political effort. And make the GOP anathema to HispanicAmericans for a generation.

And for what? Birthright citizenship is a symptom, not a cause. If you regain control of the border, the number of birthright babies fades to insignificance. The time and energy it would take to amend the Constitution are far more usefully deployed securing the border.

Moreover, the real issue is not the birthright babies themselves, but the chain migration that follows. It turns one baby into an imported village.

Chain migration, however, is not a constitutional right.

It’s a result of statutes and regulations. These can be readily changed. That should be the focus, not a quixotic constitutional battle.

Mass deportation. Last Sunday, Trump told NBC’s Chuck Todd that all illegal immigrants must leave the country.

Although once they’ve been kicked out, we will let “the good ones” back in.

On its own terms, this is crackpot. Wouldn’t you save a lot just on Mayflower moving costs if you chose the “good ones” first — before sending SWAT teams to turf families out of their homes, loading them on buses and dumping them on the other side of the Rio Grande?

Less frivolously, it is esti-

mated by the conservative American Action Forum that mass deportation would take about 20 years and cost about $500 billion for all the police, judges, lawyers and enforcement agents — and bus drivers! — needed to expel 11 million people.

This would all be merely ridiculous if it weren’t morally obscene. Forcibly evict 11 million people from their homes? It can’t happen. It shouldn’t happen. And, of course, it won’t ever happen.

But because it’s the view of the Republican front-runner, every other candidate is now required to react. So instead of debating border security, guest-worker programs and sanctuary cities — where Republicans are on firm moral and political ground — they are forced into a debate about a repulsive fantasy.

Which, for the Republican Party, is also political poison. Mitt Romney lost the Hispanic vote by 44 points and he was advocating only self-deportation. Now the party is discussing forced deportation.

It is not just Hispanics who will be alienated. Romney lost the Asian vote, too.

By 47 points. And many nonminorities will be offended by the idea of rounding up 11 million people, the vast majority of whom are lawabiding members of their communities.

PUBLIC FORUM

Think about it Empty gesture To the editor: The near-unanimous assumption that every Republican in Congress will vote to torpedo the nuclear agreement with Iran can only mean that these people are letting someone else make the decision for them. Clearly, there are legitimate differences of opinion on the matter. For example the leaders of France, Britain, Germany, Russia, China, U.S., Iran, the Vatican, and many other nations think it is the best solution available; those of Saudi Arabia and Israel, in rare unison, think not.

The American public is very divided and awash in propaganda from both sides.

Surely someone in the Republican delegation would rationally arrive at the conclusion that the few alternatives pose much greater risks to the U.S. and to world peace and stability — if they would not allow the leadership and deep pockets to lead them by the nose. I want my elected representatives to think for themselves and have the courage of their convictions.

At the onset of the cold war in 1947, Sen. Arthur Vandenberg, R-Mich., pleaded, “We must stop partisan politics at the water’s edge.” Today’s Republican leadership is demonstrating that partisan politics stops at nothing. Must the world suffer for this?

Paul Enos, Lawrence

To the editor: I was surprised to see that our local Hollywood Theater (movies) on south Iowa is searching handbags.

Besides being a violation of our rights, it will be no good against a determined gun smuggler. You need X-rays, metal detectors, and body pat-down searches.

But that would cut into their profits as much as the (badly needed) new seating, so we can be sure it won’t happen. In the meantime, there are better movie alternatives in Olathe and your own living room.

Adrian L. Melott, Lawrence

Political dollars To the editor: It seems not so long ago that Sen. Russ Feingold and others in Congress were leading the effort for campaign reform for national candidates. My, how things have changed, and not for the good. Since the Supreme Court Citizens United decision, billions of dollars have been given with no transparency to super PACs which support various candidates from both parties. Small contributors have been totally turned off.

Something we do know is that energy executive Kelsey Warren and IT tycoon Darwin Deason have donated $6 million and $5 million, respec-

Donald Trump has every right to advance his ideas.

He is not to be begrudged his masterly showmanship, his relentless candor or his polling success. I strongly oppose the idea of ostracizing anyone from the GOP or the conservative movement.

On whose authority? Let the people decide.

But that is not to say that he should be exempt from normal scrutiny or from consideration of the effect of his candidacy on conservatism’s future. If you are a conservative alarmed at the country’s direction and committed to retaking the White House, you should be concerned about what Trump’s ascendancy is doing to the chances of that happening.

The Democrats’ presumptive candidate is flailing badly. Republicans have an unusually talented field with a good chance of winning back the presidency.

Do they really want to be dragged into the swamps — right now, on immigration — that will make that prospect electorally impossible?

Yes, I understand. The anger, the frustration, etc., etc., that Trump is channeling.

But how are these alleviated by yelling “I’m mad as hell” — and proceeding to elect Hillary Clinton?

— Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

OLD HOME TOWN tively, to super PACs backing former Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s White House candidacy, according to the Aug. 18 USA Today. This is a total waste of much-needed money that could be used for our country’s infrastructure and charities that help people. And all that money to a flawed candidate who will never win his party’s nomination, much less the presidency.

Businesses like Capitol Federal, which has donated $20 million toward the construction of the new Kansas University School of Business, show us the way for a much better use of money. And how about Warren Buffet and Bill Gates, who are contributing billions toward world health?

And reaching into history, there was steel magnate Andrew Carnegie, whose name is known all over America for his library contributions.

This writer is totally disgusted with what has happened to our democracy during the past decade. We are now what some people would describe as an oligarchy.

Francisco this morning.... ‘Whether the budget will be lower than next year or not, I can not say, but it will be finished by next Wednesday night.’... The mayor believes that the people of the city want to see a bigger and a better Lawrence, a city with clean streets, with beautiful parks, with modern improvements which go to make a city well thought of, and he is in favor of giving the people what they want. ‘A pinch penny policy is not the thing for Lawrence at this stage of her development,’ he said today, ‘for in some ways Lawrence has already suffered from such policies.’”

“The new system of waterworks approaching completion at the foot of New York Street will supply the Lawrence Paper Company with a million or more gallons of well water daily. The paper plant now uses an average of 900,000 gallons daily, 500,000 gallons of which is drawn from the river directly, and 400,000 from eight twelve-inch bores. So much superior for paper making purposes is the well water that the company finally decided to cut entirely loose from channel water which is always dirty…”

I-70 bridge work to begin next week Road crews will begin maintenance work Monday on the eastbound lanes of the

Kansas Interstate-70 bridge that crosses the Kansas River, the Kansas Turnpike Authority said in a release.

Crews will apply a polymer overlay to help extend the life of the bridge and create a safer driving surface during the winter months, the release said.

The work will begin on the right outside lane, followed by the far left lane. The middle lane will be overlaid at night, requiring the far left and middle lanes.

The maintenance is expected to be finished by mid-September, and the lane closures during the process are expected to impact traffic, the release said.

Critical positions unfilled at VAs Staffing shortages leave veterans waiting for care

About one in three jobs are vacant at nine of the nation’s regional Veterans Affairs health care systems, leaving veterans waiting weeks to get care.

Nationally, one in six positions — nearly 41,000 — for critical intake workers, doctors, nurses and assistants were unfilled as of midJuly, in part because of complex hiring procedures and poor recruitment, according to critics of the nation’s network of 139 hospitals and clinics that treat veterans.

The vacancy data obtained by

USA TODAY

Dan Benishek

USA TODAY through the Freedom of Information Act offer the first look at how serious staffing issues are at some VA hospitals and clinics.

At many locations, unfilled jobs drive up appointment wait times.

USA TODAY’s analysis found that even a 1% increase in job vacancies contributes to more appointments being pushed past a month-long wait.

Some of the highest vacancy rates are for psychologists. In 13 regional health care systems, 40%

to 64% of psychologist positions are vacant. Nationally, about 21% of such positions are vacant.

“It is unacceptable,” said Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., a member of the Senate Veterans Affairs committee. “This is a problem under bright sunlight now, and it needs to be fixed.”

Tester said he was particularly concerned about mental health needs. Data from the Veterans Health Administration show that the health care system in Fort Harrison, Mont., which Tester represents, has a vacancy rate of 44% for psychologists.

More than 5,100 additional

physicians are needed across the VA system. Tester proposed a bill that would increase the number of medical residencies by 1,500, in the hopes those doctors stay on.

On the House side, Rep. Dan Benishek, R-Mich., a surgeon who worked part-time as a contractor at a VA facility for 20 years, has proposed legislation that would streamline hiring and improve accountability.

“Frankly, it’s a management problem,” Benishek said in July.

“When you have to recruit 41,000 people — there has to be a coordinated plan. And when you ask them, there’s nobody in charge.”

According to the VA, hiring in the past year matched the 9% attrition rate, and the department actually added employees.

The agency hired an additional 1,000 physicians and 2,700 nurses in a 13-month period ending May 1.

July was Earth’s hottest month on record, NOAA says Extreme heat mostly outside United States Doyle Rice USA TODAY

July was the hottest recorded month worldwide — and it comes at a time when worries over manmade global warming are reaching a boiling point.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced Thursday that the temperature in July, when averaged for all locations around the planet, was 61.86 degrees. That’s the hottest

since records began in 1880.

July is typically the hottest month of the year. The previous hottest months were in July 1998 and July 2010.

Bandar Mahshahr, Iran, set one of the world’s most extreme heat records on July 31. The air temperature of 115, combined with a dew point of 90 degrees, created a heat index of 165, NOAA said.

The NOAA announcement comes on the same day that the American Geophysical Union (AGU) released a study saying that man-made global warming has made California’s historic drought 15 to 20% worse than it would have been otherwise.

MASSIMO PERCOSSI, EPA

Tourists in Rome use fans for relief during a heat wave July 4.

The warming effect will also likely make future droughts even worse, and California could face nearly permanent drought conditions by the second half of this century, the study said.

Global “warming changes the baseline amount of water that’s available to us, because it sends water back into the sky” through evaporation.

A. Park Williams, bioclimatologist

The warming temperatures are making the drought worse because the extra heat draws mois-

ture out of plants and soil, exacerbating the dryness.

“A lot of people think that the amount of rain that falls out of the sky is the only thing that matters” in a drought, said lead author A. Park Williams, a bioclimatologist at Columbia University. “But (global) warming changes the baseline amount of water that’s available to us, because it sends water back into the sky” through evaporation.

The United States was one of the few spots that didn’t see the extreme heat in July, along with portions of western Asia. The USA did have a slightly warmer-thanaverage July, but no states set a record high, according to NOAA.

Hurley, Va., embraces Confederate symbol the end zone, where the battle flag was long ago painted into rock, the faded remains still visible if you know where to look, leaving stunned viewers to ponder how on earth the painter got up there.

“Got to be 150 feet, easy,” Blankenship says. “That’s what’s called loving your flag.”

Those who oppose it say the rebel flag stands for the fight for slavery in the Civil War — and the fight against civil rights a century later. Blankenship brands that as political correctness and agrees with Donald Trump, who said in a different context in this month’s Republican debate that political correctness is a big problem in the country.

“Everything he says, I like,” Blankenship says. “It’s like he’s reading my mind.”

forearm, where he cradles the ball on each carry.

“It doesn’t mean racism to me,” Spencer tells USA TODAY Sports. “I just look at it as a flag.

It’s our mascot. It just means our school.”

That’s the party line in Hurley, a tiny coal-mining community tucked into the southwest corner of Virginia, south of Kentucky and west of West Virginia, where longtime citizens say they just want to be left alone to rally around a symbol that’s been with them for as long as they can remember.

“It means heritage, not hate,” Hurley High principal Pam Tester says. “You won’t find a single person in Hurley who thinks different.”

And that includes Spencer, who wears his heart on his sleeve and his tattoo under it. In a community that’s overwhelmingly white, the artwork on his arm is often offered as Exhibit A for the defense.

“We got one black kid, and look at his arm,” says Steve Blankenship, whose grandson plays for the Rebels.

Much of the rest of the nation sees the battle flag as an unfurled symbol of slavery and segregation. “That’s not what it means here,” Tester says. “Never. Virginia is for lovers.”

Renewed scrutiny of the rebel flag in public spaces emerged this summer after the massacre of nine churchgoers in South Carolina. The alleged white supremacist gunman posed with a Confederate battle flag in a photo taken before the shooting. Since, South Carolina removed the flag from its statehouse grounds and Alabama did the same. Mississippi retains the battle flag that’s incorporated in its state flag, though football coaches at Ole Miss and Mississippi State are among those who say it should go.

Rebels is the nickname at roughly 200 high schools across the USA, and these days several are reviewing the name and attendant imagery. Southside High in Fort Smith, Ark., is phasing out its Rebels name and ending Dixie as its fight song. Vestavia Hills High in Alabama is rebranding its Rebels, keeping the name but eliminating some of the symbols.

No such introspection is apparent in Hurley, an unincorporated community in Buchanan County, one of Virginia’s poorest.

The county was founded in 1858, just before the Civil War, and according to the 2010 census had a population of a little more than 24,000, roughly 97% white.

Hurley’s population is estimated a bit above 3,000. On game nights, it can feel as if all of them are at The Cliff, a one-of-a-kind stadium where Smiley Ratliff Field is blasted out of rock. Behind one end zone, and behind most of one sideline, is sheer stone.

Tester says dynamite cleared the way for this field of dreams in the early 1980s. “We’re miners here,” she says. “We know how to do that.”

It’s the sort of can-do spirit that animates mountain pride hereabouts: When you can’t find 100 yards of flat earth, you make it. But coal is disappearing as a way of life, and that means less

SMILEY RATLIFF’S LEGACY

Smiley Ratliff Field is named for the founding father of Hurley High football — and of the school’s rebellious nickname.

His name was Arthur M. Ratliff Jr., though everyone called him Smiley. He coached the first Rebels squad in 1951 that played just four games with borrowed equipment, according to Sam Varney, 80, who played on the original teams. The school’s first full season in 1952 brought its first championship.

“We went from nothing to champions,” Varney says. “Smiley often said his assistant coaches were Genghis Khan, Napoleon and Robert E. Lee.” Ratliff had more winning seasons in 1953 and 1954 and then left coaching to make his fortune in coal before branching into banking and real estate holdings.

The Washington Post ran a profile of him in 1982 that said he parlayed a $1,500 bank loan into an estimated $100 million empire by mining coal with the same hellfire abandon he’d used to outflank opposing football teams.

The story describes a man who hated Franklin Roosevelt for eroding initiative, Earl Warren for destroying justice, Elvis for ruining music — and government for overregulation. “I’m a general on the battlefield of life,” Ratliff told the Post. “Why, hell, God created me to win.”

Ratliff’s ancestors fought for the South in the Civil War, and “he told me he was born too late” to fight in it himself, Varney says, though Ratliff did fight in World War II and Korea, earning an array of medals for his service.

Ratliff died at 83 in 2007. His legacy is The Ratcliffe Foundation, harkening to an earlier spelling of the family name. The foundation has net assets of more than $24 million, according to its most recently available IRS 990 form. Varney is one of its officers.

Among its beneficiaries some years is Hurley High, where a field house named for Ratliff is filled with the latest weightlifting equipment — and more than a dozen images of the rebel flag.

Ratliff thought that flag “denoted courage, valor and states’ rights,” Varney says. “It was not adopted really for anything connected with slavery or hatred or anything that those who are being vocal about it say.”

What would Smiley think

else and takes care of one another — and how the battle flag is part of all of that as a symbol of spirit, tradition and pride.

“We don’t mean any disrespect at all,” he says.

Tester’s assistant coaches are not Napoleon, Kahn and Lee but Brandon Davis, Dustin Waynick and Travis Quinley.

“I’m 33 years old, and the (front) doors have always had the flag,” Davis says. “Once, when we got new (doors), people started calling to see how soon the flag would be painted back.”

Hurley has an enrollment of 180 boys and girls in grades 9-12.

That makes the Class A school one of the state’s smallest to field a football team. Tester says he has a roster of 40 this season, including ninth-graders, and that every team the Rebels play is bigger — notably Class AA Grundy, bitter rival down the road.

Grundy players stomped and spit on a rebel flag when they won a tight game in 2013, tight end-

The symbol adorns the football team’s helmets as well. “It means heritage, not hate,” principal Pam Tester says. about statehouses and high schools retiring the battle flag?

“You can’t print that,” says Varney, who’s pleased local sentiment is to keep it flying high in Hurley. “To change it because someone else doesn’t like it,” he says, “goes against the grain of mountain independence.”

linebacker Josh Mullins says, turning the tone of this mountain feud into something even fiercer.

The Rebels took revenge in 2014 with a 66-8 stomping, Hurley’s first win in the series since 1991.

“We’re like a small-town Texas team you read about,” Quinley says. “We’re just tucked away in the Appalachian Mountains.”

CHOOSE THE MEANING

It is Friday night in mid-August, “Meet the Rebels” night at The Cliff. Hundreds pay $3 to be there for an evening of bows and smiles, sort of like a football game if it ended after the introductions.

Fans munch on chili dogs and popcorn. Parents and grandparents watch the festivities under rebel flags flapping in the breeze atop the bleachers.

The players gather in the locker room before introductions, and Pastor Eugene Whited of Blackey Baptist Church offers a sermon near the mount. He tells the team football is like the game of life and they should remember Philippians 4:13, how they can do all things through Christ, who strengthens them.

Minutes later the pastor offers a prayer over the stadium sound system. Then, showtime: The Rebels charge onto the field, Mullins carrying the battle flag as if into battle, and the crowd roars.

The vibe is small-town sweetness, but as the night winds down Rebels fans Darwin Bailey and Roger Hurley introduce themselves to a reporter to ask some pointed questions. They wonder why USA TODAY Sports is here.

They worry that any publicity will be negative publicity, because outsiders can’t truly understand their love of town, team and flag.

“It has nothing to do with hatred or anything else they want to say,” Bailey says. “We’re one big family here. You can see that tonight.”

Roger Hurley says a national story can only lead to no good.

“When this hits USA TODAY, we’re ruined,” he says, predicting protesters from elsewhere will arrive before this season is out.

“Why punish the kids?”

Buchanan County’s motto is “Nature’s Wonderland.” Hurley offers echoes of Alice’s.

Humpty Dumpty tells Alice in Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There: “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.”

Substitute symbol for word, and you have Hurley and its rebel flag. Here, residents believe that flag means what they choose it to mean. They don’t much care whatever it might mean to a wider world they’d rather not hear from. They just want to watch their Rebels score touchdowns at The Cliff, where that flag painted high on rock face fades ever so slowly into history.

U.S. seeks sites to hold Gitmo detainees Pentagon considers S.C. and Kansas but is facing opposition Tom Vanden Brook and Ray Locker USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Pentagon teams are examining sites in the United States to move terror detainees currently held at the naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Thursday.

The first two sites are the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., and the naval brig at Charleston, S.C., Carter said.

“That does not mean those sites will be chosen,” he said.

The teams will look elsewhere for potential sites in the United States, Carter said, but he did not identify them.

Study sparks debate on breast cancer treatment Jennifer Calfas USA TODAY

A new study released Thursday sparked a debate on the importance of treatment options for women diagnosed with the earliest stage of breast cancer.

The study found that treatment such as radiology for women diagnosed with with DCIS — ductal carcinoma in situ — or stage 0 breast cancer does not eliminate the threat of breast cancer at 10 years. However, researchers studied 100,000 women diagnosed with DCIS for 20 years, and found 97% of them did not die from breast cancer after undergoing treatment.

About 60,000 women are diagnosed with DCIS each year, according to the American Cancer Society. Stage 0 breast cancer is non-invasive and is located only in the milk ducts of the breast, says breastcancer.org.

The study, published in

The study found treatment of stage 0 breast cancer does not eliminate the threat of breast cancer at 10 years the JAMA Oncology journal, reignited a debate as to whether or not DCIS qualifies as cancer, and encouraged doctors to research the risks of DCIS more to determine the best treatment options for patients.

Authors of the study argue DCIS should be considered cancer and should be treated as such, while others say aggressive treatment may not be necessary.

Steven Narod, the lead author of the study and a researcher at the Women’s College Research Institute in Toronto, said the 3% of women who died over the 20 years passed away after the DCIS spread throughout their bodies before the lump in their breasts was removed.

“If this can spread prior to the removal and kill you, that’s cancer,” Narod said. “If that’s not cancer, I don’t know what is.”

However, for others, the findings from the study suggested aggressive treatment, such as lumpectomies, lumpectomies with radiology and mastectomies, is often not necessary.

The study also found DCIS-related death rates were twice as high for African-American women and women younger than 35 when diagnosed.

Charleston, said a senior defense official speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. The Pentagon is waiting on a report from the federal Bureau of Prisons on alternatives, the official said.

Carter said there are two types of Guantanamo detainees: Those who are eligible to be transferred to other nations, and those who must continue to be held.

As long as detainees are held at Guantanamo Bay, Carter said, they remain a focal point for jihadi propaganda and agitation.

There has been no pressure from the White House to transfer detainees at a faster rate, he said.

“I see it exactly as the president does,” he said.

Carter’s comments drew criticism quickly from Gov. Nikki Haley, R-S.C., who said she would fight any attempts to move detainees to her state.

Vacancy rates, longer waits Critics say VA hiring practices contribute to ‘nightmare’

David Jackson

Former president Jimmy Carter said Thursday he will fight the cancer that has spread to parts of his brain and planned to get his first radiation treatment that day.

Examinations that began with the discovery of cancer during liver surgery have revealed “four spots of melanoma on my brain,” Carter told a news conference at his presidential center in Atlanta.

“It’s in the hands God, whom I worship, and I’ll be prepared for anything that comes,” Carter said.

“I’m ready for anything and looking forward to a new adventure.”

The nation’s 39th president told reporters he had hoped the cancer would be confined to his liver, and at one point believed he had only “a few weeks left.” Carter repeatedly said he is now “at ease” with the diagnosis, and is sustained by his family and religious faith.

“I’ve had a wonderful life,” Carter said.

“I’ve had thousands of friends.”

The 90year-old former president, whose volunteer activities have included building houses, monitoring elections, and helping to develop impoverished nations, said the illness will force him to cut back “fairly dramatically” on his work with the Carter Center, though he will continue to raise money for the center and oversee some of its activities.

Since announcing last week that he had cancer, Carter said he has spoken with presidential colleagues Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush, as well as Vice President Biden and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. After the news conference, Obama tweeted that Carter “is as good a man as they come.

Michelle and I are praying for him and Rosalynn. We’re all pulling for you, Jimmy.”

Facing the ordeal with cheer and good humor, Carter said he has had only slight pain, and “I haven’t felt any weakness or debility.”

After Thursday’s radiation, Carter said he will have four more treatments to be scheduled at three-week intervals.

A decade ago, patients with the type of cancer afflicting Carter faced a very bleak diagnosis. But immune-boosting drugs approved in recent years offer much more hope to patients with mela-

In Fayetteville, N.C., a quarter of all pending appointments at the veterans hospital are scheduled at least a month past when patients ask to be seen — wait times that are among the longest of any VA facility in the USA.

That includes 59 physician positions and 31 psychologists.

“This is something we’ve been dealing with for more than a year,” said Fayetteville spokesman Jeffrey Melvin of the long wait times. “A lot of that stems from ... lack of providers.”

noma that has spread to other parts of the body.

“The advances in the last five years have been astounding,” said Anna Pavlick, professor and codirector of the melanoma program at New York University’s Perlmutter Cancer Center, who is not treating Carter but is aware of what treatments he's getting. “Patients may go on and have a complete response” to treatment.

A former peanut farmer who became governor of Georgia, Carter won the presidency in 1976 after one of the most surprising long-shot campaigns in political history.

After one term beset by economic problems, poor relations with Congress, and a hostage crisis in Iran, Carter lost the 1980 presidential election to Republican Ronald Reagan.

A botched rescue mission to Iran marred Carter’s final year in office. During his news conference, Carter said that “I wish I had sent one more helicopter to

get the hostages out,” and that a successful rescue would have reelected him.

Carter’s presidency is remembered for a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt, and his emphasis on human rights in foreign policy. He is credited with restoring integrity to the presidency after the traumas of Vietnam and Watergate.

Asked about the Middle East today, Carter said he still hopes to see peace between Israel and her neighbors, though the prospects at present seem dismal. “The whole process is practically dormant,” he said.

Since leaving the White House, Carter’s volunteer work across the world has redefined the role of former presidents. He said cancer was discovered during an exam that followed a cold he contracted while monitoring elections in Guyana.

Carter announced last week that “recent liver surgery revealed that I have cancer that now is in other parts of my body.”

In a written statement, the former president said, “I will be rearranging my schedule as necessary so I can undergo treatment by physicians at Emory Healthcare.”

Jean Schaefer of the Phoenix VA says hiring a person can take up to eight months. Laurie Butler, former acting chief of Human Resources, calls the process ridiculous.

Fayetteville is one of nine facilities that have medical employee vacancy rates over 30%. Nearly 30 more have vacancy rates of 20% to 30%.

The data, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request, show some professions are drastically short-staffed. Psychologists, scheduling assistants and physician assistants all have vacancy rates above 20% nationwide.

Critics say the agency’s hiring practices have mired regional facilities in red tape.

“The whole hiring process is ridiculous,” said Laurie Butler, who was acting chief of Human Resources at the Phoenix VA before retiring last year. There, a quarter of all clinical jobs are vacant.

Phoenix VA spokeswoman Jean Schaefer said hiring one person can involve up to 18 steps and take four to eight months. By that time, candidates have often accepted a job elsewhere, others said.

“It’s a bureaucratic nightmare,” Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., said.

“We do not have to re-create the wheel every time we hire a damn nurse or psychologist or a medical director.”

Apple, Disney fading fast among former supernovas Superstar stocks leading the dive Matt Krantz USA TODAY

It’s easy to ignore the market’s troubles — as long as your hot stocks aren’t affected. But a surprising number of former superstar stocks aren’t just getting sucked into the market’s declines but leading the dive.

The count of former market darlings that are now suffering big-time as the market struggles is big: 102 stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500, including Apple, Urban Outfitters and Skyworks Solutions, are down 10% or more from record highs set this year, a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Capital IQ found. A 10% drop is considered a correction.

The pain gets even deeper.

There are 18 stocks in the S&P 500 that set record highs this year that are now down 20% or more from those all-time highs.

Talk about a fast and painful reversal: going from being a leading stock to one that’s down 20% or more — the unofficial definition of a bear market.

Rapid deterioration in stocks that were leaders is a big warning sign. “There’s still denial going on, but this is what happens in late stages” of bull markets, says Ken Winans of Winans International. “The darling stocks start to get hammered.”

The biggest and most dramatic example is gadget maker Apple.

JAE YANG AND VERONICA BRAVO, USA TODAY

Wall Street logged a third straight day of losses Thursday — the Dow tanking 358 points, its biggest point plunge since Nov. 9, 2011 — as investors grappled with fresh questions about the timing of the Federal Reserve’s first interest rate hike, slowing global growth and oil in danger of falling below the key $40-a-barrel mark.

The Dow Jones industrials ended down 2.1% to 16,990.82 — its first close below 17,000 since Oct. 29 — following a 163-point drop Wednesday. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 2.1% and turned negative for the year. The Nasdaq composite tumbled 2.8%.

Fear is starting to rise in the market. A closely watched Wall Street “fear gauge,” dubbed the VIX, rose 26% Thursday, its highest level since July 9, but still well below its 52-week peak.

The concerns dragging down sentiment were many of the same worries that have been troubling investors since last week: uInterest rate uncertainty in the U.S. That was not resolved Wednesday by the release of the minutes of the Fed’s July meeting. The nation’s central bank said conditions for a rate hike have yet to be achieved, raising fresh questions as to whether the Fed would hike rates for the first time in nearly a decade at its September meeting. The Fed also raised concerns about the fallout from China’s lagging economy and persistent low inflation. uRout in oil market. A barrel of U.S.-based crude is flirting with falling below $40 a barrel for the first time since early 2009. In Thursday trading, West Texas Intermediate crude fell within 21 cents of $40 per barrel, but rebounded in later trading and was up 15 cents to $40.95. Crude is being pressured by data showing a bigger weekly inventory build in the U.S., continued oversupply and concerns about slowing growth in China.

“The trend (for oil) remains bearish,” Sam Stovall, U.S. equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ, warned in a research report. uChina angst. The main risk facing markets continues to be China and signs that its economy — the world’s second biggest — is slowing faster than previously thought. Markets also are still grappling with the fallout of Beijing’s surprise decision last week to devalue its currency, a move that has created turmoil in markets, especially emerging markets that do a lot of business with China. “China is causing some angst,” says Michael Farr, president of money-management firm Farr, Miller & Washington. “People may (also) be worried about the continued bludgeoning of the energy complex.”

“Investors are increasingly concerned about global growth being undermined by China’s decelerating economy,” says Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott.

workplace dissatisfaction was brought into stark relief recently with The New York Times article

on Amazon’s aggressive workplace environment, based on interviews with former employees.

According to TINYpulse’s poll of 5,000 engineers, developers and other IT specialists working at 500 TINYpulse tech and nontech company clients, tech workers are less happy than workers in other sectors in every key category. For example, only 36% of tech workers say they see opportunity for professional growth, compared to 50% of other workers, who include plumbers, architects and public school teachers.

The dour response was similar for other questions, including, “Has a supervisor recognized your work recently?” (69% for tech, vs. 75% for non-tech workers); “Can you recite your company’s mission and values?” (28%

vs. 43%); “Do you have a highquality relationship with your coworkers?” (47% vs. 56%); and “Are you very happy at work?”

(19% vs. 22%).

In answering the question about professional development, respondents’ displeasure was explained by these reasons, in descending order: opportunities for growth aren’t clear; there aren’t opportunities for growth; and the opportunities or their requirements are inconsistent.

“There’s widespread workplace dissatisfaction in the tech space, and it’s undermining the happiness and engagement of these employees,” the survey concludes.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

Late summer swoon. August blues. China syndrome. Interest rate tantrum. Go-nowhere market. No matter what you blame the recent U.S. stock market weakness on, it’s hard not to notice that it’s a blah market.

And with no economic data set for release Friday, investors will be focusing solely on financial market data in stock, bond and currency markets to see whether there are any signs of stabilization that might suggest that the market’s recent summer doldrums are nearing an end or whether the recent pain is likely to continue.

The key thing to watch is what happens in China when markets open. Will the hard-hit Shanghai

Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:

Is the currency stable or sliding again following last week’s surprise move by Beijing to devalue the currency in an effort to jump-start its slowing economy?

How do European stock indexes react to what happens in Asia?

Is there a bounce in shares in Germany? Paris? London?

What about hard-hit emerging markets stocks? Do they mount a rebound?

Finally, how do key U.S. stock indexes perform? Can the Dow Jones industrial average bounce back from back-to-back tripledigit declines? Is there talk of the market being oversold and due for a bounce? Or a breakdown below the low range of the recent trading range?

IN-DEPTH MARKETS COVERAGE USATODAY.COM/MONEY

If markets have you worried, it’s time to diversify Q: Should I be ready to bail on stocks?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: The markets don’t look great. The Dow Jones industrial average Thursday sank 358 points — the biggest one-day point drop since Nov. 9, 2011. The Standard & Poor’s 500 is down 4.6% from its all-time high.

The pain goes beyond numbers.

Household-name stocks that are the market to many beginning investors, like Apple and Disney, are struggling recently. Even some new and promising tech stocks, like Twitter, are suffering. Twitter shares dropped below the price at which the stock was sold to the public. Investors fret the Federal Reserve may push up short-term interest rates, which could cool the economy. China’s economic gusto is fading.

It looks bad — but doesn’t mean you should sell. The fact that you’re worried indicates it is overdue to examine your portfolio. If you’ve let a single hot stock overrun your portfolio, it’s a good time to put it back in the proper proportion of your holdings.

Make sure you have an adequate rainy-day fund that will cover at least three to six months of expenses. Make sure you’re diversified not just with U.S. stocks, but also bonds and foreign stocks, which have already been beat down.

None of these things are new. It’s just that during bull markets, investors often trade speculation for prudence.

Pension ‘advance’ firms sued over deceptive practices USA TODAY

Online ads offering advance payment on future pension income may have seemed like a financial lifeline for some senior retirees and military veterans.

But a lawsuit filed Thursday by federal and state regulators charged that the offers by California-based Pension Funding LLC and Pension Income LLC in reality came with high interest rates — a detail never disclosed.

CFPB Director Richard Cordray

Protection Bureau and the New York State Department of Financial Services accused the firms and three present or former executives of deceiving consumers by

characterizing the transactions as advances, not loans.

“These companies duped consumers into taking out pension loans by deceiving them about the terms of the deal,” CFPB Director Richard Cordray said.

A joint telephone number for the firms had been disconnected, and corporate representatives could not be reached.

The companies paid to steer Internet search traffic to their websites by targeting consumers who conducted Google browser searches for such phrases as “pension loan” or “sell my pension,” the lawsuit charged.

ALL THE MARKET ACTION IN REAL TIME. AMERICASMARKETS.USATODAY.COM

The company websites described “tailored financing programs” in which the firms purported to make lump-sum payments for eight years of future income from consumers’ pension payments, the lawsuit alleged.

“This pension payment is not a pension loan; it is a pension lump sum,” the websites allegedly stated. The sites also allegedly promised “(n)owhere else can you leverage your military, civil service or corporate pension to secure near-immediate cash.”

The scheme ran from 2011 until about December 2014. The firms told applicants the purport-

ed advances were better than a home equity line of credit or credit card, the lawsuit charged.

However, the transactions represented loans that on average had an effective annual interest rate of 28.56%, the lawsuit charged. The companies made their entire profit and deducted all fees at the inception of each deal, the lawsuit charged.

“This scheme involved false advertising, illegal loans at high interest rates and other abusive tactics,” said Anthony Albanese, acting superintendent of the New York Department of Financial Services.

HOW WAS YOUR DAY?

JASON MERRITT, GETTY IMAGES

GOOD DAY JENNIFER LAWRENCE Cha-ching! The ‘Hunger Games’ star has landed atop the ‘Forbes’ list of Hollywood’s highest-paid actresses. Lawrence, 25, raked in $52 million before taxes over 12 months, $16.5 million ahead of Scarlett Johansson’s $35.5 million.

Melissa McCarthy ($23 million), Chinese actress/singer Bingbing Fan ($21 million) and Jennifer Aniston ($16.5 million) round out the top five.

GOOD DAY KELLY CLARKSON The singer just couldn’t help herself as she blurted out some big news at her solo show Wednesday night at Staples Center in Los Angeles: “I’m totally KARWAI TANG, pregnant,” she WIREIMAGE announced as the audience cheered. The singer, who gave birth to daughter River Rose last year, hadn’t intended on sharing the news. “That was unplanned. I’m honestly so hormonal today,” she said. “We’ve told our family. Well, some of them, not all of them. But I was crying and I didn’t want you to think I was crazy.”

Eisenberg and Stewart have an ‘Ultra’ reunion

Actors’ profiles have risen since ‘Adventureland’ Patrick Ryan

@PatRyanWrites USA TODAY

Jesse Eisenberg has a simple rule of thumb when it comes to co-stars.

“If you meet somebody sane and they’re in a movie, try to sign on immediately,” he says of pal Kristen Stewart, with whom he reunites in stoner action comedy American Ultra (opens Friday).

“That’s a really good point,” Stewart says. “Some actors are insane people capable of pulling off convincing, normal-people parts.” But with Eisenberg, “we’re nerds. Nobody would ever entertain the 10 minutes it took for me to explain some thought you should probably keep to yourself, but Jesse will listen to it all.”

“I mean, it’s only 10 minutes!

Come on!” Eisenberg grins, jokingly throwing his hands up.

Since playing sheepish, smitten theme-park attendants in the 2009 romp Adventureland, the young actors’ profiles have risen immensely: Eisenberg, 31, earning an Oscar nomination as Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network, and Stewart, 25, tackling ambitious roles in mostly well-received dramas post-Twilight. But they’d been hankering for the chance to reunite onscreen. In the genremashing Ultra, they tote guns and ganja as amorous pot smokers NEW YORK

TODD PLITT, USA TODAY

“If you meet somebody sane and they’re in a movie, try to sign on immediately,” Jesse Eisenberg says of Kristen Stewart.

Phoebe and Mike, who turns out to be a lethal secret agent.

“I knew it was going to take a pretty smart guy to hold it together and that Jesse could do that,” says Stewart, who committed almost immediately after reading the script. “It felt like a continuation of the dynamic we had done before, and I loved that.”

But Ultra was a different roller coaster entirely. Not only did they have to throw punches and launch grenades to fend off government operatives, they also had to learn to wield more unorthodox weaponry, most memorably a throat-slashing spoon.

“I wanted to believe that Jesse and Kristen could do this and for them to do as much (stunt work) as possible,” says director Nima Nourizadeh, which required boot camp weeks before shooting in New Orleans.

With Mike on the run from CIA assassins for most of the film, it was non-stop action for Eisenberg. But the bulk of Stewart’s fisticuffs are saved until the end, when a dinky grocery store becomes the backdrop for an explosive, bloody showdown.

“I could only show my true badassery colors once or twice in the movie,” Stewart laments.

“Jesse literally has stunt after stunt and all this choreography, and I had 30 seconds that I worked on for like two weeks, which was really fun. I take two guys down — ultimately, my strongest hit is with my elbow.”

“I would say that’s your strongest body part,” Eisenberg says wryly.

“Yeah, that’s probably my moneymaker right here,” Stewart chuckles, lifting her arm and pointing. “No, literally.”

Factors to consider before your next move

By Linda a. ditch

Hometown Lawrence

When moving to a new home, most people think do-it-yourself is cheaper. However, that is not necessarily true. Can you get enough people to help? What if your help damages to your stuff?

There are the truck rental and fuel costs, plus trying to figure out just what size truck is needed.

If you do decided to handle the move yourself, start by deciding how big the truck needs to be.

Imagine the nightmare of a full moving truck with a pile of stuff still waiting to be loaded. In the moving world, a cubic foot is the measurement norm. The problem is figuring out how many cubic feet you need to hold all your stuff?

The rule of thumb is to allow 150 to 200 cubic feet of truck space for each furnished room.

Most rental companies have a chart that estimates what size

home fits in each truck. For example, a three to four-bedroom house will require a 24-foot truck.

Plus, rental company websites often have calculators to help you come up with the right size.

However, those are just average figures, so you need to consider just how much stuff you have packed into each room. Plus, as amateur movers, you may not pack the truck to utilize all of the available space. This is why the second rule of thumb is to order a truck at least 10 to 15 percent bigger than you think you’ll need.

When in doubt, pick a bigger truck.

Next, call and compare truck rental prices. This amount is determined by the size of the truck, distance of the move, number of days needed, and if the move is one-way or can you return to the truck to its

original location. Make sure you understand what’s included in the price. Also, check to see if it is cheaper to move on a different day, and don’t forget to order any additional equipment you might need, such as a moving dolly, moving pads or an extra trailer.

When you pick up the truck, you will need your driver’s license and a major credit card. Before you sign any paperwork, check the truck’s condition and note any dents and scratches on the rental agreement. Also make sure the agreement has the correct mileage and fuel in the tank.

Finally, it is time to load the truck. Start with the big stuff first — appliances, furniture, mattresses, etc. Take apart bed frames and any other pieces that can be disassembled, and then tape the loose pieces together so nothing gets lost or mixed

When loading your truck, save lighter boxes to load last and fill gaps.

up. Next, load the biggest and heaviest boxes, followed by the lighter stuff and anything that can be squeezed into nooks such as the space under a table or desk.

Before you return the truck, be sure to fill the tank. Yes, you’re tired after a long day, but the

End game KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

How to kickstart a Kansas kicker As is typical of so many student-section spectators, Matthew Wyman watched the Kansas University football team compete and told himself he could do better.

Unlike the rest of them, Wyman actually backed up his claim by joining the team in his second year in school and winning a game with a 52-yard field goal as time expired, delivering Kansas a 13-10 victory vs. Louisiana Tech, one of three victories for the 2013 Jayhawks.

That was a bright spot, but over the rest of that season and last season, Wyman never convinced the coaching staff it could call off its search for a reliable field-goal kicker. He was unable to find a consistent groove, as illustrated by his two-year extra-point inaccuracy. He made just 38 of 43 freebies and made 14 of 25 field goals.

An honorable mention all-state soccer player at Andover High in Michigan, Wyman played just five games for the football team.

It just recently hit him that football is a year-round sport.

Wyman said other than kicking with his father during the summer, he had not worked with anyone on improving. That changed this summer. When in Michigan, Wyman received lessons from Jason Hanson, who holds the NFL record (327) for most games played with the same team, the Detroit Lions.

“He’s really tuned me up,” Wyman said. “He adjusted my steps a little bit. I always struggle on the hashes, so we really worked on making sure that I have a straight line and finishing straight through the ball. I’m trying to drive my leg up and have a nice follow-through. It’s not about how far it goes. It’s about consistency.”

When in Lawrence, Wyman received kicking tutoring from Kansas Citybased Brooks Rossman, former Kansas State kicker.

“I’ve worked so much over the summer that I didn’t do the past two summers that when I go out there now I know that I’m capable of doing this, and my confidence has skyrocketed,” Wyman said. “I used to be so nervous I’d be like, ‘I need to make this kick.’

This is the first summer I really put my heart into it and really want to be good and own my job. I think we’re going to surprise some people.”

Wyman has been on scholarship since the second semester of last school year, a development he called “a nice surprise.”

He praised KU specialteams coach Gary Hyman for staying on top of him to make sure he made the most of using the summer to improve.

Hyman said that Wyman has become proficient at putting his kickoffs into the right “box,” which will help the coverage team that

KANSAS UNIVERSITY DEFENSIVE END ANTHONY OLOBIA LUNGES ONTO A MAT as he and other members of the KU defense practice on Thursday.

Three vow to to challenge sack record

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Fifteen.

On the surface, it’s just a number. One more than the point total of two touchdowns, a date on a calendar, an age, a jersey number.

But for a trio of defensive ends on the Kansas University football roster, the number carries with it great meaning.

It’s the number of sacks it will take during the 2015 season to move past Ron Warner into first place on KU’s single-season sacks list.

Given that last year’s leader — Wichita native Michael Reynolds — finished with just seven and the Jayhawks, as a team, have topped 15 sacks just twice in the past five seasons, the number seems a bit daunting.

But when you consider that first-year KU coach David Beaty has called and continues to call the defensive-end position the deepest and most talent-rich spot on the squad, it makes sense that setting the record is at least on the minds of these pass-rushing menaces.

“Absolutely,” said junior Damani Mosby when asked if knowing the record was important to him. “We all know we have team goals, but as far as a person whose job it is to get back into the backfield, I want to know who’s got the most, and I want to beat that.

Bottom line.”

For Mosby and fellow juco transfer Anthony Olobia, a junior, the idea is to make a name for themselves immediately. For returning starter Ben Goodman, a senior who is feeling the urgency of one more crack at leaving a lasting legacy, the idea is to prove that his veteran status is worth something. Despite the bouts of trash talk that have unfolded between this trio — Mosby and Olobia are roommates at Jayhawker Towers, and Olobia and Goodman have roomed together during preseason camp — having multiple players who can put pressure on opposing quarterbacks is something new for Goodman.

“It’s definitely exciting,” he said. “I’ve started 24 games

(during my KU career), and I’m still a little nervous, like, ‘Dang, these guys could come in and take my spot.’ So they make me work even a little harder and we just compete.”

Sometimes, like Wednesday afternoon inside the Anderson Family Football Complex, that competition carries on away from the practice field.

Moments after wrapping up their meetings with the media, during which both Mosby and Olobia revealed one of the first things they did after seeing this year’s media guide was flip to page 145 to see what the sack record was, Goodman and Mosby found themselves inside the sportsinformation offices.

When one KU official asked Goodman if he could give Mosby a ride to lunch after finishing a television interview, Goodman quickly said, “No. I want to tire out his legs so he can’t get more sacks than me.”

Mosby rolled his eyes in that “we’ll see” manner, and the two shared a laugh about the whole thing as they walked out the door.

“That type of talk is between me and Ben,” Mosby said. “Anthony knows he’s in that conversation, too, but me and Ben talk a lot about who’s gonna get more. Just a friendly conversation to make sure we’re pushing each other. We’ll call it a gentleman’s bet. But it’s definitely a big deal. Bragging rights.

Let’s stick with that.”

For Goodman, who enters 2015 with five career sacks but finally is playing his natural position again, the extra energy that comes from jawing with Mosby and Olobia has been motivating.

“I really haven’t had this kind of battle,” Goodman said. “I used to talk noise to Toben (Opurum) when he played on the D-line, but that was awhile ago. Other than that, there’s nobody I really trash talked with. I tell (Mosby) all the time that I’m gonna break the sack record, but he’s gonna have doubledigit sacks, too. I don’t care if I have 0.5 more than him as long as I have more.”

Jayhawks will open Big 12 play at home

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

For the first time since the 1997-98 season, Kansas University’s basketball team this winter will open the conference campaign with a pair of home games.

Baylor and Oklahoma will visit Allen Fieldhouse on Jan. 2 and 4 respectively, the Big 12 announced Thursday in releasing the league slate.

KU, which is seeking a 12th consecutive Big 12 crown, then will hit the road for two games — at Texas Tech on Jan. 9 and West Virginia (Jan. 12), before returning home to play TCU on Jan. 16.

Please see KEEGAN, page 3C KU then travels to Okla-

homa State on Jan. 19, meets Texas at home on Jan. 23 and travels to Iowa State on Jan. 25 before having the conference slate interrupted with a home game versus Kentucky on Jan. 30 in the Big 12/SEC Challenge.

After that, KU plays Kansas State at home on Feb. 3, travels to TCU on Feb. 6, plays West Virginia at home on Feb. 9, travels to Oklahoma on Feb. 13 and plays OSU at home on Feb. 15.

Then KU has a two-game road trip: to Kansas State on Feb. 20 and Baylor on Feb. 23. KU will meet Texas Tech on Feb. 27 in Allen, travel to Texas on Feb. 29, then have a Senior Day game against Iowa State on March 5.

KU will play four Big Monday games: at home against Oklahoma and OSU and at Iowa State and Texas.

“I think the league will be great,” KU coach Self said recently. “Stop and look at it with the potential of having two or three teams preseason Top-10 (KU, Iowa State, Oklahoma), I don’t think our league will take a step backward at all.”

To highlight the nonconference season, KU will meet Michigan State in the Champions Classic on Nov. 17 in Chicago. The Jayhawks will travel to the Maui Invitational Thanksgiving week for games against Chaminade and either UCLA-

UNLV, with Wake Forest, Indiana, Vanderbilt and St. John’s on the other side of the bracket.

Also, KU will travel to San Diego State on Dec. 22 and meet Oregon State on Dec. 12 in Sprint Center.

“It’s obviously another solid schedule,” Self said when the nonconference portion was released. “The last two years we played the toughest schedule in the country. This year we feel like, once again, this will be a schedule that will be one of the nation’s best.

Eric Mangini, take a bow for honesty.

Tuesday afternoon, the 49ers’ defensive coordinator was asked the following question: Does he like the NFL’s new rule regarding two-point conversions?

“Yeah,” Mangini said. “Well … I don’t know yet … I don’t know how much I like it yet.

But I’ll circle back with you.”

Mangini, famous for being a deep thinker about the game, clearly subscribes to my shallow-thinker viewpoint: Of all the non-sure things about this upcoming pro football season, the most non-sure thing is the end result of the modified points-after-touchdown policy.

What, the changes sneaked up on you? Don’t feel bad.

They sneaked up on a lot of people. Including Mangini, who admits he was surprised when the NFL’s new posttouchdown options were passed in an owners’ vote last May at a league meeting in San Francisco.

“It’s going to be a pain to get ready for it every time,” Mangini said. “But you’ll have to do that.”

Here’s how the new rules work: — If a team wishes to try a one-point conversion kick after a TD, the line of scrimmage will now be at the 15-yard line. This will turn the usual snoozer of an extra-point kick into the equivalent of a 33-yard field goal attempt.

— If a team instead wishes to try a two-point conversion, it must declare before the snap and the PAT line of scrimmage will be at the traditional 2-yard line.

— In both cases, the plays will be “live,” which means if there’s a loose ball, either team can score two points by picking up the ball and carrying it across the appropriate goal line.

Common wisdom is that most coaches will still go for the one-point kick. I do not believe in common wisdom.

Last Saturday, the 49ers received a quick taste of the fresh and experimental PAT potion in their preseason opener at Houston. After the Texans’ first touchdown, they went for two points — and succeeded on a completed pass. After the 49ers’ only touchdown in the game, head coach Jim Tomsula ordered a standard one-point kick by Phil Dawson.

Around the league, during the first full weekend of exhibition games, teams attempted 13 two-point conversions and made six of them. Kickers tried 56 conversions from the new 33-yard distance and knocked down 54 of them.

Of course, if this had been the regular season, it is likely that fewer coaches would have risked two-point attempts. Or would they?

All I know is, if a maverick coach (hello, Chip Kelly!) decides to game plan those twopoint attempts like crazy and elicits positive results that lead to a one-point or two-point victory, you can look for other teams to jump on the deuceseeking bandwagon.

Last season, kicks from the previous extra-point distance were converted at a 99.3 percent rate. Meanwhile, fieldgoal attempts from between 30 and 35 yards were good 95.3 percent of the time.

Doesn’t sound like much difference. But consider that around 1,200 touchdowns are scored every NFL season. So you’re talking about roughly 50 more missed extra-point kicks than a year ago. It will be hardly automatic.

TIGER WOODS REACTS AFTER HOLING OUT A CHIP SHOT on the 10th hole during the first round of the Wyndham Championship on Thursday in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Tiger fires 64, trails by two at Wyndham Greensboro, N.C. — Tiger Woods kept saying his game was getting better, even though his results didn’t show it.

On his first day at the Wyndham Championship, his score finally did.

Woods had his best round in more than two years Thursday, shooting a 6-under 64.

Two-time heart transplant recipient Erik Compton, William McGirt and Tom Hoge shared the first-round lead at 62.

Morgan Hoffman, Jim Herman and Derek Ernst followed at 63, and Martin Kaymer, Davis Love III and Carl Pettersson joined Woods at 64.

It was Woods’ lowest score on the PGA Tour since a 61 in the second round of the WGCBridgestone Invitational in 2013. He and the others took advantage of a low-scoring day at what he called a “tricky” Donald Rossdesigned course at Sedgefield Country Club that gave up bunches of birdies after morning showers softened the fairways and greens.

“When it’s like this,” Woods said, “you’ve got to throw darts and go low.”

And while Compton and McGirt threatened the tournament record, the clear story of the day was Woods.

That low score couldn’t have come at a better time for the biggest name in the sport.

He set the tone by holing a 54-foot chip shot on his first hole, the par-4 10th, for the first of his seven birdies.

“Finally,” he said, “I got something out of my round.”

Woods arrived insisting he was playing better than his recent results might indicate.

He had missed the cut in three straight majors and had not finished better than a tie for 17th at The Masters. He’s at No. 187 on the FedEx Cup points list and probably needs a win to move into the top 125 and earn a playoff spot.

Yet he said after last week’s early exit from the PGA Championship that those results belied the improvement he was making in his game.

“I know it’s crazy to say, but I wasn’t playing that poorly at PGA,” Woods said. “Any borderline shot (at Whistling Straits) I never got away with it, and that’s the way it goes. I felt like I was hitting the ball good enough and just kept progressing, and today was just a continuation of it.”

Especially on that first hole.

His shot from the left side of the green landed about 8 feet from the cup and rolled in.

“I went for the shot, and instead of playing something more conservative, the greens were hard and fast, and I wanted to play something long,” Woods said. “I got aggressive with it, and I went for it, and I pulled it off. ... I could see it going in.”

Hoge, playing in the day’s final grouping, made a late charge up the leaderboard, closing his round with a 5-foot birdie putt on the 18th.

GOLF

Icher tops Canadian Pacific Coquitlam, British Columbia — Karine Icher had six birdies in a seven-hole stretch and shot a 7-under 65 on Thursday to take the first-round lead in the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open. The 36-year-old Frenchwoman, winless in 253 career LPGA Tour starts, birdied Nos. 2, 5-6 and 8-11 at Vancouver Golf Club, then closed the bogey-free round with seven pars. Two-time champion Lydia Ko was second after a 67.

COLLEGES

Beebe to consult at Illinois Champaign, Ill. — The University of Illinois has hired a consulting firm led by former Big 12 Conference Commissioner Dan Beebe as it deals with allegations of mistreatment by former athletes. The contract says the Dan Beebe Group was hired this month to help the school “prevent, identify and appropriately respond to misconduct.” The cost will be $50,000 for a year.

The university this year has faced allegations from former football and women’s basketball players of mistreatment by coaches. The basketball players sued. A former women’s soccer player sued the school claiming she was cleared to play too soon after a concussion.

BASEBALL

Giants acquire outfielder Byrd Pittsburgh — The San Francisco Giants acquired outfielder Marlon Byrd and cash Thursday from the Cincinnati Reds to boost their injury-plagued outfield.

A day after losing out on second baseman Chase Utley, whom the Phillies traded to the NL West-leading Los Angeles Dodgers, the defending World Series champions made their own move to boost an outfield that has dealt with injuries to all three starters. San Francisco trails LA by two games.

TENNIS

Djokovic reaches quarters Mason, Ohio — Novak Djokovic rallied to stay alive for the one tournament title that has eluded him, reaching the quarterfinals of the Western & Southern Open with a 6-4, 2-6, 6-3 victory over David Goffin on Thursday.

Djokovic never has won Cincinnati. He’s trying to become the first player to win all nine ATP Masters events in a career. The top-ranked Serb became so frustrated after dropping the first game of the second set that he smacked his racket on the court three times.

Naval officer attends practice Keegan CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Thursday’s practice started with a bit of patriotism for Kansas University’s football team, as Rear Adm. Mark W. Darrah of the United States Navy spoke to the Jayhawks about leadership and the importance of operating as a team.

Darrah requested the opportunity to address the Jayhawks.

Back in the area for a series of speaking engagements, the Shawnee Mission Northwest High and Ottawa University graduate reached out to KU coach David Beaty about attending a practice and talking to the team while he was here.

“I thought it went well,” Darrah told the Journal-World at practice. “I just talked about the need to be a team and how having success isn’t about the individual. I also told them that the tone that coach Beaty has set is the right tone.”

That tone, as has been well documented, is based on effort, discipline,

accountability and energy. Lots and lots of energy.

Darrah, who was given a pile of KU gear before he left practice, reminded the Jayhawks that in good times and bad, their energy can mean a lot to a lot of people.

“There are people out there sitting on the edge of their seats bleeding with them and wanting them to win,” Darrah said. “Guys in combat zones all over the world are tuning in to see if their team is winning.”

Darrah, who will serve as an honorary captain at tonight’s Kansas City Chiefs exhibition game, said the last message he wanted to leave the team centered on how a lot of the lessons he learned as a high school and college athlete helped pave the way for his decorated career.

“Some of these guys will wind up in the military after they’re done playing here,” he said. “And hopefully they’ll take the lessons they’re learning today with them. I just spent a few minutes out there listening to (Beaty), but I can see it and hear it in his voice. He’s got it.”

“We have that kind of competition with everyone,” he said. “We have (defensive tackles) trying to tell us they’re gonna have more sacks than us, and we’re like, ‘No, you’re not. I’m a rusher.’”

If that last part is true, it figures to help the Kansas defense tremendously this fall. The only question remaining is, sack record or not, which one of these

Red Sox put an end to Royals’ win streak Boston (ap) — Danny Duffy didn’t have to look too hard to find out where he went wrong as Kansas City’s five-game winning streak came to an end.

Duffy battled through control problems through the first three innings, and the Royals never recovered as the Boston Red Sox beat the Royals 4-1 Thursday night.

“They capitalized on all my mistakes today. I threw 75 pitches in the first three innings,” Duffy said. “Quite honestly, I thought it was one of my worst starts of the year.

Not at all pleased with it.”

Boston scored one run in the first and added three runs in the third, which was all the offense Wade Miley needed while shutting down the Royals. Ryan Hanigan drove in two runs and scored another on Jackie Bradley Jr.’s triple to help the Red Sox end the Royals’ streak and continue Boston’s recent surge.

“He commanded really well, and he did a great job for them tonight. He made quality pitches when he needed to and did a fantastic job,” said Mike Moustakas, whose solo homer in the fifth was the only run the Royals scored.

Miley (10-9) allowed just one run. The Red Sox are 5-2 under bench coach Torey Lovullo, who took over last week when manager John Farrell announced he is being treated for cancer. Mookie Betts, Travis Shaw and Xander Bogaerts had two hits apiece for Boston.

Miley allowed one run on six hits while striking out six in 71⁄3 innings. Junichi Tazawa pitched the ninth for his second save.

J-W Staff Reports

For the second time this month, Lawrence High senior football standout Amani Bledsoe cut his list of potential college choices.

Bledsoe, the top recruit in Kansas and No. 131 nationally by Rivals.com, listed Kansas University, Missouri, North Carolina State, Oklahoma, Oregon and UCLA as his six finalists Thursday on Twitter.

The 6-foot-5, 270-pound defensive end plans to take an official visit to UCLA on Sept. 19 and to Oregon on Sept. 26.

By NCAA rules, he can take a maximum of three more official visits.

performed poorly a year ago.

Nick Bartolotta of St. Louis, a transfer from College of DuPage, is competing with Wyman and might have the edge on extra points. Wyman is the better option for long field goals, so the remaining issue likely is which kicker will handle the shorter field goals.

When Wyman talks about what has made him inconsistent in the past, he sounds like a golfer burdened by trying to crush every drive.

“I’ve always had a problem with trying to kill this ball and make it go as far as it can, and that doesn’t really matter,” Wyman said. “For kickoffs, that’s really helped me, but for field goals, (Hanson) told me, ‘Kick 80 percent, and keep your head on the ball, instead of going 100 percent and being out of control.’”

As holder, reserve quarterback T.J. Millweard’s job isn’t over once the ball has been kicked.

“They have T.J. tell me if it goes in (between the uprights) or doesn’t go in,” Wyman said, “and have me look at the ball the entire time and just follow on the ground in a straight line so I’m not looking up at all. They’ve really pounded that into me every day, and it’s helped with my consistency.”

Only consistent production in practice can convince head coach David Beaty to send Wyman onto the field when going for it on fourth down is tempting.

If Wyman shows more consistency than in past seasons, his opportunities will increase.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS LINEBACKER DERRICK JOHNSON signs autographs during training camp on Aug. 1 in St. Joseph, Missouri.

Chiefs’ Johnson finally returning to Arrowhead Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The last time Derrick Johnson set foot in Arrowhead Stadium, he crumpled to the turf without anybody around him.
