LABOR DAY

A LIFETIME OF WORK Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

As they retire, the first generation of women to enter the workforce en masse reflect on the changes they’ve seen

By Kim Callahan kcallahan@ljworld.com

“Why are you here? Why aren’t you married?”

Judy Roitman recalls the young man’s hostile interrogation as not so much a question

as an invitation to scram. It was 40-odd years ago, and, it was just one in a torrent of antagonistic remarks, dismissive looks and cold shoulders directed at her, but it lodged in her memory as emblematic.

“My stomach hurt every day

in grad school,” she says of her years at the University of California at Berkeley in the early 1970s. “It was terrible.”

She and the young man were fellow graduate students, in their 20s, and the answer to his question — why was she there instead of being married? — was that, like him, she wanted to be a mathematician. She wanted to have a career, and like many women of her generation — the first to enter the professional workplace in sizeable numbers — she saw no reason why she couldn’t do that and pursue all the other life experiences that were available to men, including having a family.

Roitman is 68 now. She retired this year from Kansas University, after a distinguished career that saw her become a fellow of the American Mathematical Society, an honor bestowed for outstanding contributions to the advancement of mathematics. And she’s also a grandmother.

LAWRENCE POLICE REMOVE A MAN’S BODY from a culvert located east of Constant Park and between the railroad tracks and the Kansas River. The body was discovered Sunday afternoon.

Couple finds dead man’s body in Constant Park Lawrence police unable to identify deceased because of decomposition

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

Lawrence Police are investigating after a man’s body was found in Constant Park Sunday afternoon.

More than a dozen investigators were on the scene Sunday evening after two individuals reported seeing a body laying face-down in shallow water just west of the Vermont Street bridge.

Suzanne Conley, who discovered the body with her boyfriend, Jaime Duran, said the body appeared to be that of an adult male of average height and weight. She did not report seeing any obvious signs of foul play.

“It’s crazy. A very sur-

real moment,” Conley said.

Conley was visiting Lawrence for the Labor Day weekend, showing Duran Kansas University, where she used to attend school. She was on the KU rowing team in 1988 and 1989 and wanted to show her boyfriend where she practiced.

Conley was driving on a gravel road that runs underneath the Vermont Street bridge and parallel to the Kansas River when Duran no-

ticed the man’s torso in his peripheral vision.

“I just happened to glance down and there he was,” Duran said. “I wonder how long he’d been there.”

Due to the amount of decomposition of the body, Sgt. Craig Shanks of the Lawrence Police Department said police are not able to identify the man at this time.

The Douglas County Coroner’s Office will work to identify the man and begin determining his cause of death this week, Shanks said.

Smartphone-based ride-sharing program, Uber, arrives in Wichita W ichita ( ap ) — A smartphone-based ride-sharing service that is popular in many cities has arrived in Wichita.

The Wichita Eagle reports that Wichita is one of 22 U.S. cities where San Franciscobased Uber took to the streets Thursday. The service is now offered in more than 100 cities.

Through the smartphone app, Uber connects prospective passengers with drivers who offer rides in their own vehicles.

The driver and Uber split the money, with about 80 percent going to the driver and 20 percent to Uber.

Poneet Kant, regional general manager for Uber, said the number of Uber drivers serving Wichita is in the double digits and that the company is still recruiting. To ensure passenger safety, Uber conducts insurance

and background checks before allowing drivers to join its network, Kant said.

New Wichita driver Teresa Renecker said Uber is a godsend for her. The 49-year-old worked as a mail carrier before suffering a neck injury, and while she is hopeful she will be transferred to a postal job she can do with her physical limitations, driving for Uber has put her back on the road in the meantime.

“You drive a lot on both of those jobs,” she said.

In some cities, traditional cab companies have strenuously

opposed Uber and its competitors. But so far, that hasn’t happened in Wichita.

Interim City Attorney Sharon Dickgrafe said the city will be considering “whether there’s a need to regulate this industry.” She said the city will contact the stakeholders, including Uber and the taxi companies, as part of that consideration.

Kant said he welcomes the process.

“We’re definitely looking forward to working with the city of Wichita on what might be commonsense regulations that address ride sharing,” he said.

Years ago, all funeral homes were owned by local families. They served friends and neighbors, not just customers. Not true anymore! Today, many funeral homes are large outof-town corporations changing their direction as the wind moves them.

Our funeral home has always been locally owned and operated. And, though the wind may blow, we still know that providing the best possible service and value for our friends and neighbors is the direction we will go.

State’s abuse standards lax, child welfare experts say

High burden of proof could put kids at risk

Wichita — Kansas is the only state in the country that requires clear and convincing evidence to substantiate an allegation of child abuse or neglect.

That standard could be putting children at risk, some in the child welfare field say, The Wichita Eagle reported.

When the Kansas Department for Children and Families substantiates abuse or neglect, it places the perpetrator on a registry that bans

CONAR HARRIS, 9, SPRAYS OFF THE A-26 LADY LIBERTY at the Hutchinson Municipal Airport in Hutchinson Saturday, Aug. 23. Members of the public were able to give the plane a bubble bath as a fundraiser to replace the aircraft’s engine, which quit when the plane came for an air show in June. It will cost approximately $68,000 to replace.

No other state requires such a high burden of proof, according to “Child Maltreatment 2012,” a study by the Administration for Children and Families, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

A survey of states found that most use a preponderance of evidence, a less rigorous standard in which evidence shows it is more likely than not that abuse or neglect occurred.

Kansas used a preponderance of evidence standard until 2004. Since then, it has required clear and convincing evidence that an alleged perpetrator’s actions or inactions meet the legal definition of abuse or neglect.

“It is concerning,” Diana Schunn, executive director of the Child Advocacy Center of Sedgwick County, said of the higher standard now in place.

“It seems odd to me that all of the investigation and services that are done are

focused on the child and when we get to the finding, that focuses on the offender and not so much on the safety of the child,” she said.

Brian Dempsey, director of protection and prevention services for the state department, said the department doesn’t require a substantiated finding to request a child’s removal or to offer services to families.

“Another state may substantiate for the purpose of removing a child from a home or prohibiting someone from fostering children,” said spokeswoman Theresa Freed of state’s department for children and families. “Our effort is for the purpose of prohibiting the person from working in a licensed child care facility. It can’t be said enough, so the public understands, recommending a child be removed from a home is not the same as substantiating.”

But because the state’s

children and families department substantiates so few cases — about 6 percent of all reports of child abuse and neglect — for the purpose of putting people on the registry, the state “could ultimately put children’s safety at risk — not intentionally,” Schunn said.

There are 31,077 people on the central registry, Freed said. To find out if someone is on the registry, you must have the written permission of the person you wish to search. State child welfare agencies making such requests are not required to submit a signed release form.

The Eagle began looking into how the state officials review cases in February as part of its “In Need of Care” series, which featured a 14-year-old girl who was kept in a windowless locked basement room.

from the time she was 9, beating her with a foam hard-core bat and a broken curtain rod. The girl weighed 66 pounds when police removed her from her home in March.

A social worker told a judge that a doctor had diagnosed the girl as a victim of child torture.

Before police removed her and her siblings from their home, the state department had taken eight previous reports about suspected abuse and neglect. None was substantiated.

The girl’s adoptive parents would not be on the registry because the state department did not substantiate any of the reports of abuse.

The Kansas Department for Children and Families makes a finding for every report of child abuse and neglect that is assigned to social workers. The finding either is substantiated or unsubstantiated.

The department used to have three categories of findings — unsubstantiated, substantiated and validated.

The “validated” finding, which was used from 1997 to 2004, meant the incident was severe enough to add the perpetrator’s name to the registry. Substantiated meant that the evidence showed the incident occurred but wasn’t severe

enough to place the person on the registry.

Schunn said she wishes Kansas still had validated as a finding.

“To me, the general public has a presumption that it’s unfounded,” she said of reports of child abuse deemed unsubstantiated by the DCF. She said she would support a lower standard of evidence to substantiate a case and another option, such as validated.

“It gives a more accurate and clear depiction from a public’s eye of what the abuse situation is in Kansas,” she said.

The state switched to a clear and convincing evidence standard in 2004 to be more consistent with state law, Dempsey said.

“We wanted to ensure that we met an appropriate burden of proof before placing someone on the central registry,” he said.

In 2012, Pennsylvania was the only other state using the clear and convincing evidence standard.

But that state’s legislature amended the law, effective at the end of this year, to make “substantial” evidence the standard in child abuse cases.

Virginia used a clear and convincing evidence standard until the ’90s and used three categories of findings — unfounded, founded

and reason to suspect, Virginia Department of Social Services spokeswoman Patrice Hagan said in an email.

The reason to suspect finding was “used when we didn’t have the clear and convincing evidence to say founded but we still suspected a problem,” said child protective services policy specialist Mary Walter.

When the state took away that option, Virginia moved to a less rigorous standard of evidence to protect children.

“We had to eliminate by regulation the reason to suspect finding,” Walter said. The state then asked, “Is this the evidentiary standard we want to maintain?”

The clear and convincing evidence standard, Walter said, “is a more rigorous standard, and it’s more difficult to reach that.”

Linda Spears, vice president of policy and public affairs for the Child Welfare League of America, said of the clear and convincing evidence standard: “I never thought there was a reason to have it to begin with.”

It could, potentially, put children at risk, she said.

SUSAN LINDAHL, BAKER UNIVERSITY executive vice president for administrative services and chief operation officer, leans against Harter Union’s new coffee bar that offers Starbucks coffee and smoothies from Jamba Juice.

Floor-to-ceiling for students.” windows line the area’s southern exposure, and more natural light floods the space from three glass-enclosed student study suites on the area’s east side.

Benefiting from all that light is a coffee bar vending Starbucks coffee drinks.

Susan Lindahl, Baker University executive vice president for administrative services and chief operating officer, said the coffee bar, lounge and student study suites made up the interior portion of the renovations, called the Pat Long Student Activities Center in honor of the university’s recently retired 28th president.

They, and the adjoining exterior patio now under construction, were designed from responses to a student survey.

“We asked students what they would like to have,” she said. “They said they would like a place they could get quick grab-and-go, and of course coffee. We tried to design what’s best for students.”

Although the familiar green-and-white Starbucks Coffee logo is displayed above the coffee bar, it is not a full-fledged Starbucks, said Jeff McCollough, general manager of Sodexo Food Service’s Baker University operation. Students, faculty and other customers can buy all the coffee drinks Starbucks offers, but the coffee bar doesn’t sell Starbucks mugs and Sodexo provides the graband-go pastries available, he said.

Furthermore, the famous coffee vender shares the bar with another national franchise, Jamba Juice, which offers various types of fruit smoothies.

On Monday, the three new study suites at the union’s east end were empty. Lindhal

— Susan Lindahl, Baker University executive vice president for administrative services and chief operating officer

expects that to change as the semester moves on and students gather to prepare group projects. The two smaller suites to the north have tables seating up to six students, and the largest southern suite has a conference table capable of seating 10. All the suites are furnished with whiteboards, connective portals for electronic devices and flatscreen monitors.

“They’re student think tank rooms,” Lindahl said. “It gives students the opportunity to bring all their technology, plug it in on the desktop and connect directly to the screen on the wall.”

The large southern room has a double door that can be opened to add space to the lounge area for special events, Lindahl said.

Although the space was designed for student needs, Lindahl and McCollough encouraged community members to visit and sample the offerings at the coffee bar.

McCollough said one segment of the community already seemed to have discovered Jamba Juice.

“It seems to be a hit with the local kids,” McCollough said. “They’ve been coming in for smoothies and grab-andgo items.”

The new renovations will be more inviting with the completion of the outdoor patio with ADA accessibility, Lindahl said. It was running ahead of its targeted completion date of Oct. 30, which is also the date of new President Lynne Murray’s inauguration.

The architectural firm behind this year’s renovation is GLMV Architecture of Wichita,

Lindahl said. It was the same firm who designed the Susanne Teel Dining Hall, the first phase of the union makeover completed a year ago.

Lindahl said Sodexo suggested the firm that specializes in dining and kitchen design.

Alumni donations covered the cost of current renovations and those of the Susanne Teel Dining Hall, so the university did not have to issue bonds or go in debt for the improvements, Lindahl said.

Sodexo, a French food service company that manages dining facilities at a number of colleges in Kansas, was contracted to take over Baker’s food service in 2013 shortly before the renovated dining all opened.

“We were one of the last independent colleges in Kansas still operating our own food service,” Lindahl said. “It’s not our core mission.”

With its larger purchasing power, Sodexo is able to offer students more, such as glutenfree foods, at a better cost, Lindahl said. It can also call in added staff for big events from its operation at Ottawa University and elsewhere, she said.

Baker did ask that Sodexo offer its employees the employment opportunities and the company continues to hire Baker students as part-time staff, Lindahl said. That has worked out as one of the former Baker employees has advanced in Sodexo and a former student part-timer has joined the company’s staff at Baker since graduating, Lindahl said.

half-century — and the kinds of incidents that might have derailed her dreams, that did in fact derail a lot of women’s dreams and that would be unthinkable to most young women entering today’s workplace — she beholds a “much better,” if far from perfect, world. lll

orn in New York City in 1945, Roitman grew up in a family where women did not have careers. They worked to earn money — her mother was a secretary and some of her aunts were teachers — but they all considered themselves “wives and mothers first” who worked for reasons that had little to do with self-fulfillment.

All through childhood, Roitman wanted to be a high school English teacher. She loved literature — she is now an accomplished poet — and teaching was an acceptable path for women.

She held to that aspiration through her undergraduate years at Sarah Lawrence College, but then took a class in mathematics and discovered a talent and passion for the subject that eventually led her to Berkeley’s graduate school.

The almost all-male environment there was so hostile, she recalls, that “I’d whisper to a male student to ask a question for me in class” because the male instructor “did not take women seriously.”

Berkeley, despite its reputation as a bastion of progressiveness, had yet to hire a female math professor.

“No one wanted to hear from you,” she says.

“It was very clear that women had a place in the culture, and it was to serve men.”

Academic conferences, which should have been stimulating and productive for a young intellectual, were sometimes unbearable. “It was really awful the way women were talked about and talked to,” she says.

Three things happened to gradually turn the tide.

She got a chance to study in Wisconsin with an eminent mathematician who happened to be a woman; she got recruited to be the first female tenuretrack research professor in KU’s math department; and little by little she got more and more female colleagues.

Roitman describes the University of Wisconsin’s math department in the early ’70s as a kind of sanctuary in a sea of sexism. “It was exceptional,” she says, and she attributes that to the energetic presence of Mary Ellen Rudin, a distinguished mathematician who presided in the department “like a force of nature.”

In such an environment, one could focus, at long last, on mathematics, not gender.

Then, coming to Kansas in the late ’70s, Roitman was relieved to find

“a kind of decency here.”

Her male colleagues at KU weren’t exactly “women’s libbers,” but here’s the important thing: She felt that they wanted her to succeed.

“I felt very supported here,” she says, “but I was clearly considered different.” A novelty.

When did that change?

When the department hired a third woman, in 1988.

“If there are two women, everyone’s watching to see if they agree, if they get along,” Roitman says. “Once you have three women, suddenly it doesn’t matter.

Everyone’s ‘just one of the guys’ then.”

KU’s math department now has seven female tenure-track professors and another coming in 2015, out of about 30 total.

It’s nowhere near half, but Roitman at least has to stop to count them — and has to use both hands.

As Roitman embarks on her first year of retirement, it was announced last month that Maryam Mirzakhani had become the first woman in history to win the Fields Medal, the most coveted prize in mathematics.

Roitman was elated — another sign of progress, even if “it took them way too long.” lll

LARISSA LONG retired this year as senior manager for external affairs at Black Hills Energy. She says one of the biggest changes she has witnessed in the workforce is the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993. senior manager for external affairs at Black Hills Energy. Even though she had lucked out with “an easy pregnancy” and did not medically require more than three weeks off, she would have appreciated having the time to bond with her baby and acclimate to life as a parent.

The FMLA, which also allows individuals time off to take care of sick children and parents, applies only to employers with 50 or more employees.

Proposals to require that some or all of the leave be paid have not gained traction.

The wage gap When the Equal Pay Act was signed into law in 1963, women were earning an average of 59 cents on the dollar compared to men, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Today, women earn about 81 cents on the dollar. For black and Hispanic women, the gap is wider.

The Institute for Women’s Policy Research estimates that it could take until 2056 — when today’s young workers are retirement age — for the wage gap to close.

three-word response: “The Mod Squad.”

The late-’60s TV show about hip young cops, one of them a woman, made her want to be one.

Desperately.

“I felt called,” she says with a chuckle of embarrassment. So that’s what she did. She became a cop. And she loved it.

“I was in seventh heaven,” she says. But the joy she has always felt in realizing her lifelong goal doesn’t tempt her to downplay the difficulties she encountered as one of the first female officers on the Lawrence Police Department.

Hadl, 56, graduated from Lawrence High School in 1975 and pursued degrees in crime studies and Spanish and, later, a master’s degree in social work at KU, all with an eye to getting into law enforcement.

She got her foot in the door at the Lawrence Police Department as a civilian crime prevention coordinator in 1979, and when the opportunity shortly arose to go to the Police Academy, she leapt at it.

“I just assumed that I was as welcome as the next person, as welcome as the man standing next to me,” she says.

‘Still an enormous problem’ Flagrant sexism in the workplace has dramatically diminished in the 50 years since the enactment of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the law that prohibited discrimination based on sex and that Schroeder established the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

“Title VII has done a lot of good,” says Kansas University law professor Elinor Schroeder. “It has done away

By Kim Callahan

When Lawrence resident Larissa Long had her baby in 1972, she went to work that day, gave birth that night and was back at her desk three weeks later. Part of that time off was vacation she had carefully saved, not knowing whether the accounting firm she worked for would give her any. To her great surprise, the firm not only chipped in another week or so but paid her for it.

At the time she felt tremendously fortunate. The company didn’t have to do anything for her. This was six years before the federal 1978 Pregnancy Discrimination Act and 21 years before the 1993 Family and Medical Leave Act. A lot of women had lost their jobs or were never promoted because of a pregnancy. Many were never hired on the assumption of a future pregnancy.

And whether and how much maternity leave one received was at the discretion of a woman’s employer and laws that varied by location.

“I would have loved to have had the opportunity of the FMLA” and the 12 weeks off that it provides for new parents, says Long, who, at 67, retired this year as

She was wrong.

Closed minds were more plentiful than open arms, despite her good marks in training. And she was alone. Her attempts to establish camaraderie with fellow cadets were misconstrued as romantic overtures. A male instructor even accused her of having an affair with a male classmate who simply had dared to befriend her “as a fellow Christian.” She was chastised for the nonexistent affair, she says, and was told to end it. Nothing was said to her alleged partner in impropriety.

That sexualized dynamic followed her into the police force, where she said it was a “constant battle” to be recognized as just one of the officers doing a job. “People assumed I was having (improper) relationships when I was just seeking friendships like everyone else.”

“Some of the men,” she said of her early career, “would openly make fun of you. They made (unprintable) comments indicating they had other ideas about what women should be doing. Some simply would not speak to you.”

There were large indignities and small.

When she was partnered with a man for patrol, the man always drove the car, she said.

What did she do about it? “Nothing,” she says.

Lodging a complaint would have just isolated her further — a sentiment familiar to many women working in that era. “I tried to make the best of the situation and always improve myself.”

And she did rise in the department eventually, becoming its first female sergeant in 1991. Like Roitman, she describes the turning point as when other women began to be hired and promoted. When a second female officer made the rank of sergeant, she felt she had a “comrade,” and her own presence began to feel more normal, less novel.

When she retired three years ago, she was lauded by Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib for her many accomplishments, including her involvement with the force’s critical-response team, her certification as a hostage negotiator and her expertise in the area of domestic violence.

She in turn lauds the department today.

“It has come a long way,” she says. “The current leadership is well aware of the importance of recruiting, retaining and promoting women.”

The department now has 18 female officers, which, according to spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley, amounts to almost 12 percent of the total.

Hadl talks glowingly about her career but does regret that she never made the rank of captain.

“I hit that glass ceiling,” she says, attributing her failure to rise higher not to sexual discrimination so much as to “sexual omission,” or a kind of invisibility, especially through the early years, the feeling that

with a lot of overt discrimination and has opened up the workforce and eliminated a lot of invidious employment practices.”

But sexual discrimination and harassment are “still an enormous problem,” says Schroeder, who specializes in employment law.

In 2013, the EEOC, which handles such claims, saw close to 28,000 filed charges of sex discrimination, 7,256 charges of sexual harassment and 3,541 charges of pregnancy discrimination.

New speakeasy is open for business, if you can find it I think I’ve finally been to a speakeasy. I think.

If you remember, we reported last month that paperwork had been filed for a new drinking establishment in the basement of 7 E. Seventh St. downtown, and we mentioned that the rumor was that the place was going to be a “speakeasy.”

It was just a rumor at that time, because I checked and couldn’t find where the business filed an official speakeasy permit at City Hall (just an oversight, I’m sure), but now I can report that the speakeasy element is indeed true. I stumbled into the establishment recently. It is open. I think. As we previously reported, it is called John Brown Underground. I think.

No, it’s not the substance that I think was gin that is causing my confusion. It is the fact that the business has no signs, advertisements or anything else calling attention to its existence.

“It is not an exclusive club, but we’re definitely not advertising,” said Kate Brubacher, the bar’s manager. “We want it to be word of mouth. There is no sign out front and no plans for a sign out front.”

That makes sense. If there is one thing I’ve always said about John Brown, it is that he hated signs. No, that’s not it.

A speakeasy, for those of you not familiar with the term, was a common phrase in the Prohibition

I think people are going to enjoy a completely different vibe than anywhere else in town.”

era to describe an establishment that illegally sold alcohol, or whatever that substance was that was brewed in the bathtub. For those of you who sat in the back row in Kansas History class, let me clear up some confusion and say John Brown was not a Prohibition-era figure. He was a militant abolitionist, but the secretive theme does kind of apply to him. Smuggling slaves to freedom involved some hush-hush type of stuff. Plus, the bar is in a basement, so it kind of literally has an underground theme going. I could do further psychoanalysis on the name, but I think I’ll just let Brubacher try to explain the place.

“I think people are going to enjoy a completely different vibe than anywhere else in town,” Brubacher said. “It helps that we’re in a basement, and we keep the lighting low. There will be lots of hospitality and no pretension. The idea is we wanted some place for the 30

and up crowd. Not a lot of screaming and pop music. We want to keep it kind of mellow.”

The establishment can seat 80, but there is twist to that as well. Forty of the seats are in a back room, whose entrance is cordoned off with a velvet rope. That room is available only by reservation or “invitation.”

In case you’re still trying to picture where this establishment is, it’s in the spot that formerly housed the Game Guy video game store. Because the location wasn’t already a bar, John Brown Underground has to meet the city regulation that at least 55 percent of its total sales come from food rather than alcohol. The city has that regulation to stop a proliferation of pure bar uses downtown.

At the moment, the business has a small menu including pretzels with mustard dipping sauce, a broccoli and cauliflower plate, a sack of nuts, a bratwurst meal and a burger meal. The establishment has a longer list of classic cocktails, and some of them may require some explanation.

“We’re trying to get

people reintroduced to some of those old-time drinks,” Brubacher said.

“Maybe some of what their grandpas drank but they haven’t.”

The drink menu includes some easy ones to understand like a classic martini, a Rob Roy, and a Mint Julep. But there’s also something called a Pimm’s Cup, which uses a British liquor similar to gin and is cucumber based. There’s also something called a Pisco Sour, a Sazerac, a French 75 and Prohibition Punch, which features gin and “barkeep secrets.” Perhaps you are in luck, though, and your grandpa drank Pabst Blue Ribbon, Hamm’s or other such beer. Those and a few craft beers, plus some wine, also are stocked at the bar.

Scott Elliot, who is a partner at The Summit health and fitness club at Ninth and New Hampshire streets, is an owner of the establishment.

He said he had seen some other speakeasy concepts open in other cities, and thinks patrons are searching for places that have a more mellow atmosphere and promote conversation and relaxation. Elliott said he and

Showboat Casino Hotel closes after 27 years in Atlantic City “

In March, when I delivered the sad news of the closing of Carlos O’Kelly’s on 23rd Street, we left my lovely wife soaking in a vat of cheese sauce and repeatedly whispering “Vaya con Dios, Suiza con Pollo.”

Well, I may soon be able to put the vat to other uses. No, Carlos O’Kelly’s isn’t coming back, but a Kansas City-based Mexican restaurant is moving in.

IN THIS JULY 24 PHOTO, DEMONSTRATORS HOLD A RALLY at an Atlantic City, N.J., park before marching on the Boardwalk to protest the closing of the Showboat Casino Hotel on Aug. 31. Showboat is one of two Atlantic City casinos that are shutting down over Labor Day weekend. closed the still-profitable casino to reduce the number of casinos in Atlantic City, which has been struggling with plunging revenue and increased competition in the saturated northeastern U.S. casino market.

The Showboat stopped admitting new customers at 3 p.m. Sunday. At 4 p.m., security guards emerged to tape to the glass doors paper signs that read, “Closed.”

Inside the casino, recordings urged customers to patronize Caesars Entertainment’s three remaining casinos in Atlantic City: Caesars,

Harrah’s and Bally’s.

Caesars Entertainment CEO Gary Loveman wrote in a letter to employees that the Showboat has been in business in Atlantic City for 27 years and Caesars was proud to operate it for 16 years.

“I want to thank the Showboat Atlantic City team for their dedication, professionalism, and commitment to our guests — both throughout the years and especially over the past several weeks,” he wrote.

Obviously it will be a ranch-themed venture combining the influences of World Cup soccer star Mia Hamm and O.J. Simpson judge Lance Ito. Actually, I’m told that is not correct and that we have changed decades.

I’m sure many of you already have been to a Mi Ranchito. According to the company’s website, Mi Ranchito opened its first restaurant in 2004 in Olathe and has grown to six locations including in Lenexa, Overland Park and Gladstone. It looks like the Lawrence location will be its first outside the Kansas City metro.

According to its online menu, it looks like the restaurant will have a large offering of Mexican dishes — combination platters, fajitas, burritos, shrimp tacos, guacamole, and of course, salads served in the only respectable type of salad bowl, a crispy flour tortilla bowl.

When I hear back from the company, I’ll pass along more details about when the restaurants plans to open and other such details.

Atlantic City, N.J. — The show is over for the Showboat Casino Hotel.

The Mardi Gras-themed casino shut down Sunday after 27 years on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. It was one of three casinos closing within the next two weeks as Atlantic City deals with the impact of increasing competition from casinos in neighboring states. Revel will begin a two-day closing Monday, and Trump Plaza is closing Sept. 16.

One of the final songs piped in over the Showboat’s loudspeakers: Queen’s “Another One Bites The Dust.”

“We’re all feeling a little betrayed,” Showboat cook Curtis Wade said. “We’re all walking around in a fog today. We worked really hard to try to keep it operating, and we’re still profitable. We still don’t understand why we were the one targeted to close, and nobody has given us an answer on that. There are too many jobs being pushed out of Atlantic City due to corporate greed.”

Wade will be among the thousands of workers showing up at the Atlantic City Convention Center on Wednesday for a mass unemployment filing.

his staff will continue to make a few tweaks to the concept as they go. He said a small stage area will be used to host perhaps a jazz guitarist or horn player a few nights a week. He said the menu also will expand significantly in the coming days.

But he doesn’t plan on changing the strategy of making the place slightly difficult to find. “We had a couple of guys come in the other night who said they didn’t really know where it was, but when they saw the front door, they figured they had to be in the right place,” Elliott said. “That’s what we want. We want people to experience that feeling of ‘I’ve found it.’”

Dining options Expanded food truck operations could provide an interesting dining option in Lawrence.

F

ears about the competition to existing brick-and-mortar restaurants shouldn’t be a major factor in the Lawrence City Commission’s consideration of whether to approve new regulations that would allow expanded food truck operations in the city.

Currently, food trucks can operate no more than three hours a day in Lawrence. The new regulations would drop that time limitation and allow food trucks to set up in privately owned parking lots on many of the city’s commercially zoned properties. The food truck operators would have to receive permission from the property owners and file a site plan with City Hall, which would review parking requirements and safety issues associated with the plan.

Those certainly are legitimate issues for city government to review and regulate. Food trucks need to operate in a safe manner that doesn’t create a traffic nuisance.

On the other hand, fear of competition for existing Lawrence restaurants isn’t a valid reason to keep the lid on food truck operations. Food trucks have become a popular option in many American cities, but they serve a different purpose than restaurants that offer a sit-down dining experience.

Some commissioners have noted that food trucks don’t face the same property tax burdens as brick-and-mortar restaurants. That’s true but, by that rationale, it would be unfair to allow a small drive-through restaurant to operate in a tiny structure and be in competition with a larger restaurant that has a much larger footprint and a much larger property tax bill.

Food trucks also face different challenges, including inclement weather that likely makes their operation at least somewhat seasonal.

A discussion of the new food truck regulations had been tentatively scheduled for Tuesday’s commission meeting but has been delayed. It’s good for commissioners to consider all the ramifications of allowing expanded food truck service in Lawrence but it certainly seems there is room in the local market for another food option that has proven popular in many other communities.

Ryan’s approach polite, intellectual Washington — To take the measure of this uncommonly interesting public man, begin with two related facts about him. Paul Ryan has at least 67 cousins in his Wisconsin hometown of Janesville, where there are six Ryan households within eight blocks of his home. And in his new book, “The Way Forward: Renewing the American Idea,” he says something few politicians say, which is why so many are neither trusted nor respected. Ryan says he was wrong.

At a Wisconsin 4-H fair in 2012, Ryan encountered a Democrat who objected to what then was one of Ryan’s signature rhetorical tropes — his distinction between “makers” and “takers,” the latter being persons who receive more in government spending than they pay in taxes. He had been struck by a report that 60 percent of Americans were already — this was before Obamacare — “net receivers.” But his encounter at the fair reminded him that, for a while, he and many people he cared about had been takers, too.

The morning after a night “working the Quarter Pounder grill at McDonald’s,” Ryan, 16, found his father, who had been troubled by alcohol, dead in bed.

Janesville’s strong sinews of community sustained Ryan and his mother; so did Social Security survivor benefits.

When GM’s Janesville assembly plant closed, draining about $220 million of annual payroll from a town of 60,000, many relatives, friends and constituents needed the social safety net

“

Since 1999, when he became its secondyoungest member, Ryan has been an intellectual ornament to the House of Representatives — and a headache for risk-averse Republican Party operatives.”

— unemployment compensation, job training, etc.

“At the fair that day, I realized I’d been careless with my language,” he writes.

“The phrase gave insult where none was intended.”

He has changed his language and his mind somewhat but thinks the fundamental things still apply.

“Society,” Ryan writes, “functions through institutions that operate in the space between the individual and the state,” and “government exists to protect the space where all of these great things occur.” Hence government has a “supporting role” as “the enabler of other institutions.” Progressive government, however, works, sometimes inadvertently but often deliberately, to subordinate or supplant those institutions. This de-

pletion of social capital is comprehensively injurious to the culture. And “all the tax cuts in the world don’t matter much if you don’t get the culture right.”

Progressivism aims to place individuals in unmediated dependency on a government that can proclaim, as Barack Obama does: “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

Meaning, people depend on government for what they are and have.

Few of today’s progressives are acquainted with their doctrine’s intellectual pedigree or its consistent agenda.

Progressivism’s founders, however, considered it essential that the nation make progress, as they understood this, beyond the Founders’ natural rights philosophy, which limits government by saying (in the Declaration of Independence) that it is “instituted” to “secure” these rights.

Hence Woodrow Wilson, a progressive who understood his doctrine’s premises, urged Americans to “not repeat the (Declaration’s) preface.” Progressivism preaches that rights do not pre-exist government, that they are dispensed and respected by government as it sees fit and to fit its purposes. Those purposes grow unconstrained by the Constitution that progressives construe as a “living” — meaning infinitely elastic — document.

Since 1999, when he became its second-youngest member, Ryan has been an intellectual ornament to the House of Representa-

tives — and a headache for risk-averse Republican Party operatives. They pay lip service to electing conservatives who will make the choices necessary to stabilize the architecture of the entitlement system and unleash the economic growth that must finance the system’s promises. But they want to let voters remain oblivious about the choices required by that architecture’s rickety condition.

Such Republicans are complicit with Obama, who demonstrated the self-destructive nature of his now-evaporating presidency by his contemptuous, and contemptible, treatment of Ryan on April 13, 2011. After he loftily aspired to teach Washington civility, the White House invited Ryan to sit in the front row at a speech in which Obama gave an implacably hostile and mendacious depiction of Ryan’s suggestions for entitlement reforms. Obama thereby repeated his tawdry performance in his 2010 State of the Union address, when, with Supreme Court justices in the front row of the House chamber, he castigated them for the Citizens United decision, which he misrepresented.

Both times, Obama’s behavior bespoke the insecurity of someone who, surrounded by sycophants, shuns disputations with people who can reply. Ryan, however, has replied with a book that demonstrates Obama’s wisdom in not arguing with a man who has a better mind and better manners.

Ten reasons to value honest labor

1. Never look down on somebody who holds a job and rides the bus to the end of the line. These are the people who labor their whole lives but are never rewarded with tangible success. Not every dog has its day; some simply work their tails off. My father was one of those guys: never missed a day, never missed a beat and barely made a dime. But he taught my brother and me how to get a job done. Old Italians would grab their kids and say, “The more you have in there,” pointing to our heads, “the less you have to put on there,” pointing to our backs. My brother and I benefited from my father’s integrity, his stamina and his gratitude for having a job.

2. Most of the people actually working on Labor Day are the ones who really deserve the day off. Declared a federal holiday in 1894, it’s meant to be a day of street parades illustrating the “strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations” followed by food and festivities for the workers’ families, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Not anymore — at least, not for folks selling groceries, serving food or manning the mall for the back-to-school rush. If you know how to run a register or deal non-violently with customers who bark “Whaddya mean, I might need a different size? I’m a 6. I’ve always been a 6. Get me your manager,” you’ll be required to show up for a double-shift.

3. Of course, some people take Labor

“

Just as every great job has a terrible hidden cost, every terrible job has a wonderful, if small or secret, payoff.”

Day quite literally: My friend Heidi gave birth to her daughter.

4. Just as every great job has a terrible hidden cost, every terrible job has a wonderful, if small or secret, payoff.

My husband worked at a deli when he was in high school and although he hated standing on his feet seven hours a day cutting fatty meats (including slicing tongue, which unnerves him to this day), he was able to eat his body weight in cold cuts, rye bread and coleslaw. He was a lanky kid; he appreciated the fresh food and the conversations with the customers. The job changed his life.

5. Every job teaches you something apart from the skill you’re using at work. I learned one big lesson when working inventory at Barnes and Noble when it was the world’s biggest bookstore — in a real building on Fifth Avenue. This was long before online ordering: We wrote down ISBN numbers on small slips of paper and went to the warehouse to retrieve titles. It became obvious that certain old volumes had new fans every day because we were always restocking them, while some wildly hyped and well-reviewed new books never sold a copy. It was then that I learned that many slick novels had a shorter shelf life than cannoli.

Let’s say it changed the focus of my lit-

erary ambitions.

6. Every young person should have had a job for an extended period of time where he or she needs to show up on time, in clean clothes, wide-awake, in a convincingly cheerful mood (faking it is fine — nobody cares what your real mood is because it’s not about you) and prepared to complete whatever task is assigned. This is not about being exploited; this is about learning how to separate your public life from your private life. The idea is to learn to slough off the whiny self that moans “I don’t feeeeeel like doing this today.”

7. You can’t “Retire Before You’re Thirty!” any more than you can “Age With Dignity Before You’re TwentyTwo!” That’s just silly talk.

8. We’re told you should follow your dreams and become financially independent, as if these two were twinned.

Avoid building a future based primarily on your inner-promptings without establishing your economic security first. Figure out how to make rent and pay bills: Not even with crowd sourcing will your bliss necessarily lead directly to the bank.

9. There’s no “Major Investors’ Day” for the same reason there’s no “Men’s History Month.”

10. Without ever working or having worked, how can you take a break and feel whole? Here’s to earning our keep.

raeli army violated the rules of war, which include giving adequate warning to civilians, using proportionate force and distinguishing between civilians and combatants. Unlike in many other Gaza battles, civilians were caught by surprise by the sudden fire and sealed exits.

“None of the rules of international humanitarian law was observed,” said Mahmoud Abu Rahma, director of international relations for human rights group Al Mezan.

The Israeli military confirmed that Rafah residents were barred from leaving the area on Aug. 1, but declined comment on the war crime allegations. It denied firing into a densely populated area without regard for civilians, saying precise airstrikes hit targets linked

to militants and artillery — though inherently inaccurate — was only aimed at open fields.

Late on Aug. 2, the suspected capture of the soldier turned out to be a false alarm, and the Rafah episode is one of several under internal military review.

“If we accidentally or mistakenly targeted a civilian situation, it was a mistake, and we are very sorry about that,” an officer from the army’s Southern Command said on condition of anonymity.

In all, 121 Palestinians were killed in Rafah on Aug. 1 and 69 on Aug. 2, according to the Palestinian Center for Human Rights and Al Mezan rights group, which compiled the names. The dead included 55 children, 36 women and five men over the age of 60.

Rafah, Gaza Strip (ap) — The first of August dawned as a day of promise for the Mahmoum clan and thousands of other Palestinians stuck in United Nations shelters in Rafah — thanks to a temporary cease-fire with Israel they could go home for three days.

But the expected respite quickly turned into one of the deadliest and most controversial episodes in the recent war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip. After just two hours, amid fear that Hamas had captured an Israeli soldier, the Israeli military sealed off the Rafah area and began shelling. By the end of the next day, 190 Palestinians were dead, according to a list of names compiled by two Gaza human rights groups, including 14 members of the Mahmoum family.

The Rafah operation is almost certain to be a focus of U.N. investigators and rights groups looking into possible war crimes because it highlights a key concern: The treatment of civilians.

A Palestinian rights group argues that the Is-

KANSAS SOCCER

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kansas football needs blowout More long faces than can be seen at a horse auction colored Memorial Stadium depressed at halftime of last season’s Kansas University football opener, an unimpressive 31-14 victory against South Dakota.

At the half, Kansas held a shaky 14-7 lead, and the game felt so much like the previous year’s seasonopening, 31-17 victory against South Dakota State.

The name of the immobile, inaccurate, over-hyped, under-performing quarterback changed, but the slow, sad song remained the same.

For the fourth year in a row, the humble beginning to a KU football season proved an accurate indication of things to come.

The general feeling that nothing short of Kansas winning its second game, at Duke, will rekindle the interest of a fan base tuning out has some merit to it, but a season-opening blowout reminiscent of the late Mark Mangino years certainly wouldn’t hurt building momentum toward the Duke game.

Kansas needs to dominate Southeast Missouri State from the opening series and never let up until it scores its first victory by 27 or more points since Mangino’s last team opened the 2009 season winning games by margins of 46, 27 and 28 points.

The greatest illustration of how quickly and completely the Kansas football program has declined comes in comparing Mangino’s record in blowouts — defined here as games decided by margins of 27 points or greater — in his final four seasons to the record of his successors, Turner Gill for two years and Charlie Weis for two. Mangino went 14-4 in blowouts in his final four seasons. Todd Reesing started at quarterback in three of those, a huge factor. KU is 0-21 in blowouts since Mangino and Reesing departed. Gill went 0-11, Weis 0-10.

Saturday represents this season’s best chance for Kansas landing on the right side of a lopsided score.

It need not approach the 77-0 score SEMO put on the board last week in welcoming Missouri Baptist to college football, but something along the lines of 42-7 might make the average football fan consider the possibility that it’s not the same old story.

Tom Matukewicz, in his first year as SEMO head coach after serving as defensive coordinator at Toledo, inherits a team that went 3-9 last season. The Redhawks tied for seventh in the nine-team Ohio Valley Conference with a 2-6 record.

Time for a blowout during which Kansas looks fast and organized and plays with the raw nastiness of a football team eager to take out four years of frustration on an overmatched opponent.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SENIOR FORWARD ALI KIMURA (12) CELEBRATES HER GOAL during the Jayhawks’ 4-1 victory over No. 24 Wake Forest on Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

KU gives coach 200th win … and a bath

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Kansas University soccer coach Mark Francis, soaked from the neck down, spat some water out Sunday afternoon at Jayhawk Soccer Complex and smiled as he addressed his team after a 4-1 victory over No. 24 Wake Forest.

“I knew you guys were up to something,” the 16th-year KU coach said, “because you were acting really weird.”

The Jayhawks, as a way to celebrate Francis’s 200th career victory, had just doused their coach with a sneakattack cooler shower. Senior midfielder Jamie Fletcher told him the milestone meant either he’s a good coach or really old.

Francis couldn’t mind the good-natured jab, though.

Not after the way KU played to reach 4-0 for the first time in five years.

“It’s one of the best games

we’ve had on this field, I think, in a long time,” Francis said.

The Jayhawks’ fun began in the 25th minute, when senior forward Ali Kimura perfectly timed her run to avoid an offside call and received a pass from freshman forward Eli Mayr. Kimura juked Demon Deacons goalkeeper Lindsay Preston to fire KU’s first goal into a wide-open net.

Kansas wasted little time in the second half putting

Wake Forest (1-2) away.

Mayr won a 50-50 ball from a defender in the 48th minute and pushed an attack into the box before drawing a foul.

Then junior midfielder Liana Salazar easily rolled a penalty kick into the right side of the net.

Twenty-nine seconds after extending the lead to 2-0, KU sophomore defender Aurelie Gagnet sent a cross in to Please see SOCCER, page 3B

Indians-Royals suspended in 10th RAIN DELAY n Sunday’s stormy game will conclude Sept. 22 in Cleveland

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The race for the AL Central title got another wrinkle Sunday night when Cleveland’s game at Kansas City was suspended in the 10th inning.

Lonnie Chisenhall’s twoout, two-run double gave the Indians a 4-2 lead before rain led to a delay before the

bottom half of the inning.

The teams never took the field again.

The game will resume on Sept. 22 in Cleveland before the start of the last scheduled series between the teams.

Kansas City (74-61) and Detroit were tied for the division lead coming into the

day, with Cleveland (70-64) just 31⁄2 games back after winning three straight and six of seven.

The addition of the suspended game to their September three-game set just adds to the importance of the series for the Royals and Indians.

Detroit lost 6-2 to the Chi-

cago White Sox on Sunday, so the Royals lead the Central by a half-game heading into the opener of a threegame series against Texas on Monday night.

Q: Who knows KU football? A: Sendish

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

You know those game show contestants who get on a roll, answer all the questions right and make it seem as if the other players aren’t even in the room?

That’s Kansas University senior Cassius Sendish in the defensive-back meeting rooms.

And that’s why safeties coach Scott Vestal added a game-show element to their daily meetings.

“In our room, we have a No-Cassius Question, because he’ll literally answer every single question,” Vestal said. “So I’ll be like, ‘OK, what are we gonna do here, and how are we gonna

do this? Cassius, do not answer.’”

It works most of the time but usually just for that one question. After that, the 6-foot, 195-pound safety taps back into his brain and pulls out even the littlest details about what every defensive player on the field is supposed to do in any given situation.

“I used to always joke with him, ‘Man, we’re not playing “Jeopardy.” You can give somebody else a chance,’” joked senior cornerback JaCorey Shepherd.

“That’s just how he is. He understands it. He knows Mike Yoder/Journal-World Photo it. And we listen to him.

Kahne wins in Atlanta; Stewart hits wall SOUTH

Hampton, Ga. (ap) — Kasey Kahne grabbed the lead on the restart following a caution with 23 laps remaining and held off Matt Kenseth in a two-lap shootout to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Sunday night.

Kahne’s first win of the season earned him a spot in the Chase for the Sprint cup. Kenseth also qualified for the Chase on points.

Wozniacki upends Sharapova at Open New York (ap) — Caroline Wozniacki trusts her stamina so much that she plans to return to New York in two months to run a marathon.

Maria Sharapova, usually the one wearing down opponents in the third set, sure couldn’t keep up on a steamy Sunday at the U.S. Open. Wozniacki won 6-4, 2-6, 6-2 in 2 hours, 37 minutes to get back to her first Grand Slam quarterfinal in more than two years — and get back in the headlines for reasons other than her personal life.

“The season for me has been a little bit up and down,” she said in quite an understatement, “and it’s so nice to kind of start feeling like I’m playing the way I want to.”

Because of the heat, the players received a 10-minute break before the final set; Sharapova returned to the court late, arguing with the chair umpire after receiving a time violation warning. Perhaps sensing that she was fresher than the five-time major champion, Wozniacki later complained that Sharapova was dawdling between points.

Her tardiness seemed to swing the Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd’s support squarely in Wozniacki’s favor. When the 10th-seeded Dane broke Sharapova at love to go up 3-1 in the final set, she got a standing ovation from the fans and waved her arms to egg them on. Sharapova had appeared to hit a winner three times on that game’s final point only for Wozniacki to somehow chase down the ball. Finally, Sharapova put a volley into the net.

Wozniacki mixed in just enough aggression with her signature defense to keep the pressure on Sharapova in the final set.

“She’s very good at getting a lot of balls back and making you hit another one,” Sharapova said. “In the end, I went for a little too much.”

She insisted the conditions didn’t bother her. Sharapova had been 17-6 in three-set matches this year, including her come-from-behind secondround victory here.

The fifth-seeded Sharapova’s loss leaves No. 1 Serena Williams as the only woman remaining of the top six. Ninth-seeded Jelena Jankovic was also upset, losing 7-6 (6), 6-3 to 17-year-old Swiss Belinda Bencic.

With mentor Martina Hingis cheering from the stands, Bencic became the youngest U.S. Open quarterfinalist since Hingis herself in 1997.

About a half-hour later, thunderstorms halted play with second-seeded Roger Federer down a break in the first set to Marcel Granollers.

Federer acknowledged the two-hour delay helped him regroup. While Granollers won the first set, Federer dominated the rest of the way, winning 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, 6-1.

Unlike the women’s draw, the men’s side didn’t lose a top10 player until Sunday, when fourth-seeded David Ferrer was upset by Gilles Simon in the third round 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, 6-3.

Sixth-seeded Tomas Berdych and No. 7 Grigor Dimitrov also advanced.

THE UNITED STATES’ RUDY GAY, CENTER, COMPLAINS TO A REFEREE during a 98-77 victory over Turkey in a Basketball World Cup game Sunday in Bilbao, Spain.

United States forced to rally past Turkey, 98-77 Bilbao, Spain — Kenneth Faried scored 22 points, Anthony Davis all of his 19 in the second half, and the U.S. rebounded from a rare deficit at halftime to beat Turkey 98-77 on Sunday in the Basketball World Cup. A night after beating Finland by 59 in its biggest rout ever while using NBA players in the former world championship, the Americans couldn’t take control against Turkey until early in the fourth quarter.

They trailed 40-35 at halftime and Turkey led by six early in the third before the Americans could finally get the game into the quicker tempo they prefer and pull away to win the rematch of the 2010 gold-medal game in Istanbul.

But it was a much tougher one than expected after the Americans hammered Finland 11455 while Turkey was being outplayed for most of its opener by New Zealand before pulling out the victory.

James Harden added 14 points for the U.S. It was tied at 59 with 3:10 left in the third before the Americans closed the period with a 7-1 burst to lead 66-60 after Faried’s basket. The U.S. then ran off 10 in a row to open the fourth and open a 76-60 cushion.

The Americans haven’t lost since the semifinals of the 2006 world championship and outside of their victories over Spain in the last two Olympic gold-medal games, haven’t been in danger much since then.

But they needed a long time to start looking like the team that is so considered the tournament favorite by so many.

It was 16-all after one, and Turkey controlled the tempo in the second quarter, getting to the foul line against a U.S. team that showed moments of frustration with the pace and some calls that went against them. Baris Hersek and Emir Preldzic made consecutive threepointers late in the half to give Turkey a 38-32 lead, and it was 40-35 when the teams went to the locker room.

The Americans are off today before continuing pool play Tuesday against winless New Zealand.

GOLF

Henley leads Deutsche Bank Norton, Mass. — Russell Henley made five birdies in a seven-hole stretch Sunday and had a 6-under 65 to take a one-shot lead in the Deutsche Bank Championship.

For the second straight week, a FedEx Cup playoff event is wide open going into the final round.

This one includes Rory McIlroy.

The world’s No. 1 player had a 64. McIlroy was two shots off the lead at the TPC Boston heading into the Labor Day finish. Jason Day (69) and Chris Kirk (64) also were two behind.

Ten players were separated by four shots.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a third-round 73 and fell 23 spots to a tie for 56th.

Couples playoff winner Calgary, Alberta — Fred Couples won the Champions Tour’s Shaw Charity Classic, chipping in for eagle for a course-record 9-under 61 and beating Billy Andrade with a tap-in birdie on the first hole of a playoff.

The 54-year-old Couples also eagled the par-5 11th and had five birdies in his third straight bogey-free round at Canyon Meadows.

Andrade closed with a 62, making a short eagle

putt on the par-5 18th to match Couples at 15-under 195.

In the playoff on No. 18, Andrade went for the green in two and pulled his approach right of the green and into the grandstand. Couples laid up and hit his third within a foot. After taking a drop, Andrade left his chip 30 feet short and missed his birdie putt.

Ernst claims LPGA title Portland, Ore. — Austin Ernst won the LPGA Tour’s Portland Classic on Sunday with a par on the first hole of a playoff against South Korea’s I.K. Kim. It was the first professional victory for the 22-year-old Ernst, who shot a 5-under 67 in the final round to get to 14 under at Columbia Edgewater. Kim, the first- and second-round leader, carded a 68.

Kim missed an eight-foot par putt in the playoff that handed the win to the American.

Ernst pulled into contention with a 5-under 31 on the front nine, highlighted by a chip-in eagle at the par-5 fifth. Kim made four birdies and no bogeys.

NFL

Pats trade Mallett to Texans Jimmy Garoppolo will be carrying a clipboard for Tom Brady on the New England Patriots’ sideline this season.

The Patriots traded former Brady backup Ryan Mallett to the Houston Texans on Sunday, elevating Garoppolo to the No. 2 job behind the two-time NFL MVP. Garoppolo was a second-round pick in this year’s draft — the highest coach Bill Belichick has ever selected a quarterback in New England.

“We have three good players at that position, three players we have a lot of confidence in,” Belichick said on Sunday just hours before the trade was announced. “It’s a good situation.”

Mallett was 14-for-26 for 161 yards and a touchdown this preseason, and his fate seemed decided when Garoppolo played the entire exhibition finale on Thursday night against the New York Giants. Originally a third-round draft pick from Arkansas, Mallett played four regularseason games in three years with the Patriots, completing one pass.

In Houston, Mallett will move into the backup role created when the Texans cut Case Keenum later Sunday. Keenum had been competing with rookie fourth-round pick Tom Savage for the No. 2 role behind Harvard product Ryan Fitzpatrick.

AUTO RACING

Blaney takes truck title Bowmanville, Ontario — Ryan Blaney edged German Quiroga by 0.049 seconds to win the Truck Series race on the road course at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park.

The win Sunday was Blaney’s first of the season, but third of his career. Blaney and Quiroga drag-raced off the last corner to the finish line after Blaney made a pass in the final turn.

“That was a ton of fun racing with German,” said Blaney. “We raced really, really hard and really clean and that’s how racing should be.

We had a problem last week (at Bristol) and just fate would have us racing each other for the win this week. That’s awesome. That’s what racing needs to be, it was so fun racing with him and battling it out with him.”

BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

N.C. prep Ingram has KU in final six

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Brandon Ingram, a 6-foot-8, 180-pound senior small forward from Kinston (North Carolina) High, on Sunday night cut his list of schools to six: Kansas University, Kentucky, UCLA, North Carolina, Duke and North Carolina State.

Ingram, who is ranked

No. 18 in the Class of 2015

by Rivals.com, will visit KU for the Oct. 10 Late Night in the Phog. He recently visited UCLA, Duke and North Carolina.

He’ll attend Kentucky’s Big Blue Madness on Oct. 17.

Duke.247sports.com reports that Ingram grew up a Duke fan, but the past two standouts out of Kinston — Jerry Stack-

house and Reggie Bullock — wound up at UNC. Stackhouse is Ingram’s AAU coach.

Ingram has led Kinston High to three straight Class 2A state titles. He had 28 points — 23 in the second half — in a 67-57 title win over North Rowan High in the 2014 state title game.

“Ingram’s game is similar to that of a Kevin

Durant,” an NBA scout told Zagsblog.com. “He has the long and slender frame and he struggles defensively like Durant did early in his high school days. His shooting stroke is a big-time plus for him because he lacks strength and cannot always finish through contact.”

Of his own game, Ingram told Zagsblog: “My versatility is something

I pride myself on. I can play on the perimeter, go inside against smaller defenders, shoot over the top of anybody and attack the basket.

“I am looking for a program that has a great coaching staff that can make me better. It’s also important that the coaches prepare me for the next level after college basketball,” he added.

l

Svi scores four in loss: KU freshman Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk scored four points off 1-of-4 shooting (2-of-5 from the freethrow line) in Ukraine’s 81-76 Group C pool play loss to Finland on Sunday at the World Cup in Spain.

He was 0-for-2 from three and had four fouls in 10 minutes. Ukraine is 1-1 at the tourney.

CHIEFS QUARTERBACK ALEX SMITH CALLS A PLAY AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE during the first half of a preseason game against the Vikings on Aug. 23 in Kansas City, Missouri.

Source: Chiefs, Smith reach deal ————

QB gets $68 million extension Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — When he was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs last offseason, quarterback Alex Smith professed his admiration for coach Andy Reid and his excitement at playing for the storied franchise.

Now, he could have that opportunity for at least four more years.

Smith signed a $68 million extension Sunday to remain with the Chiefs through the 2018 season, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team did not disclose the terms of the contract.

Smith, who is due $7.5 million this season, will receive $45 million in new guarantees.

“It was a priority of ours to get this deal done and keep Alex in a Chiefs uniform long term,” Chiefs general manager John Dorsey said in a statement. “Alex is a proven leader on and off the field. He is a special individual with a lot of ability and we are fortunate to have him here.”

Smith and his agent, Tom Condon, had been discussing an extension for several months, and both sides were hopeful that a deal would be reached by the regular season. But with the Chiefs opening against Tennessee next weekend, time was quickly running out.

“John and his staff along with Tom and his group have worked hard to get this deal done.

They’ve done a nice job,” Reid said in a statement.

“Alex is a smart, talented football player that has adapted well to our offensive scheme. He also, obviously, has had a tremendous amount of success as a quarterback in this league. We as a team are very happy to have Alex as our quarterback.”

The Kansas City Star first reported that Smith had reached an agreement.

The former No. 1 overall draft pick joins a wave of quarterbacks who have recently signed long-term extensions, including the Bengals’ Andy Dalton and the 49ers’ Colin Kaepernick.

K.C. claims DT Square The Associated Press

Kansas City, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs claimed defensive tackle Damion Square off waivers and released tight end Richard Gordon as they began final assembly of their roster for the season opener.

Unlike last year, when the Chiefs were atop the waiver claim priority list, they were just 23rd in line this season. That means 22 other teams skipped on Square, who was active for 10 games with Philadelphia last year but was among the Eagles’ final cuts Saturday.

Gordon was the fourth tight end kept by the Chiefs and was unlikely to be kept long.

The Chiefs also began assembling their 10-member practice squad, reaching deals with eight players: offensive linemen Ben Gottschalk and Ricky Henry, wide receivers Darryl Surgent and Fred Williams, running back Charcandrick West, linebacker Nico Johnson, defensive lineman Kona Schwenke and fullback Jordan Campbell. well in the preseason, throwing two interceptions in the red zone in his final outing against Minnesota. But he’s been hampered by an offensive line in turmoil, an injury to running back Jamaal Charles that kept him out two weeks of training camp, and a suspect group of wide receivers that will start the season without suspended star Dwayne Bowe.

“I feel good. I mean, I feel great,” Smith said last week. “We got some good work, some things to learn from to get better, but I do — I do feel confident in what we’re doing.”

Tukwila, Wash. (ap) — Vlatko Andonovski is glad the last 10 minutes of the National Women’s Soccer League title game is over. The stress was almost too much for the FC Kansas City coach.

Amy Rodriguez scored twice, and Kansas City held on during a wild finish to capture the NWSL championship with a 2-1 win over Seattle Reign FC at Starfire Stadium on Sunday.

Megan Rapinoe capped a crazy sequence — one that saw a shot hit the crossbar and another blocked in the box — with a goal in the 87th minute for Seattle to make for a frantic final few minutes in which two attempts at an equalizer went wide.

“I think the last 10 minutes shortened my life for 10 years,” Andonovski joked.

It is the first title for Kansas City, which knocked off the league’s defending champion, the Portland Thorns, in the semifinals.

“Unbelievable,” defender Kassey Kallman said of the title. “I mean this is my first professional championship game and it’s my first championship winning it, so it’s pretty great. I love the team ... it was such a hard fought game and I couldn’t think of a better girls to spend the day with.”

Rodriguez got behind the defense in the 21st minute and beat Reign keeper Hope Solo with her left foot to open the scoring.

Last season’s scoring champion scored what would prove to be the game-winner in the 56th minute after Lauren Holiday, the game’s MVP, provided a timely cross into the box. Rodriguez had to leave the game in the 63rd minute due to cramping, but Andonovski said she would have subbed off shortly anyway.

The Reign controlled the game from the outset, but were unable to find quality shots on goal.

Seattle had free kicks just outside the penalty area twice in the second half, but was unable to convert.

“It’s just pure disappointment right now, I think,” Seattle midfielder Kim Little said. “We did all we could to win the game, but I think today they took their chances, and I think although we had more and maybe dominated the game. We couldn’t take ours.”

The Reign were the NWSL regular season champions, losing just twice. They scored a total of five goals against Kansas City in three previous matches this year.

“It’s a battle,” Andonovski said. “It’s not just two best teams, we were playing the best team in the league, hands down. … We knew it was going to be a battle all the way through and we came to battle.”

KANSAS FRESHMAN FORWARD ELI MAYR (13) GETS SOME AIR as she leaps to deflect the ball off of the foot of Wake Forest defender Jenna Romano during the Jayhawks’ 4-1 victory Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

Soccer CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Kimura, who re-directed it into the back of the net.

“We got that momentum going,” Kimura said after scoring her third goal of the season, “and we just fed off that. It was great.”

The senior from Overland Park could’ve scored a third time in the final minute, when she broke free for a one-on-one with Preston, but she chose to feed Salazar on the left side, giving the Colombian junior her fifth goal of the season.

Salazar said the pass didn’t surprise her.

“We’re not a selfish team,” she said. “If that’s

Sendish CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

knows what everyone else is doing? It helps. It helps a lot.”

It’s no accident.

Sendish, perhaps more than any other player in the program, puts a premium on studying and truly enjoys that aspect of the game.

“How you do something is how you do everything,” Vestal explained. “Are you the guy that sits in the back of the room and slumps? Then that’s how you’re gonna be on the field. That’s how you’re gonna be in the classroom.

Cassius is Front Row Joe in every single meeting.

He stalks you with his eyes in the meeting room.

It’s almost unnerving.”

easier, that’s what we’re gonna do.”

Kimura said it would’ve been awesome to net a hat trick, modestly adding that Salazar had an easier shot.

“It’s more important the team scores, rather than me scoring,” Kimura said. “We just look for each other, play off each other and get the job done.”

As much as Francis — 200-152-23 in his 19 years of college coaching (three at South Alabama) — loves that KU is averaging 3.0 goals a game, he thinks the Jayhawks also possess the intangibles to carry them much further than in 2013, when they finished 7-11-2.

“You saw it today.

There’s people slide-tackling, there’s people grab-

bing people, there’s people chasing, there’s people hustling,” Francis said. “I think we’re a pretty good soccer team, but to be honest with you, I think we’re gonna win more games because of the fight and the hustle factor.”

Wake finally got a shot past senior KU goalkeeper Kaitlyn Stroud (four saves) in the 82nd minute, when Riley Ridgik scored on a free kick from more than 30 yards out.

Stroud returned to action after a one-game suspension for violating team rules, as did senior defender Caroline Van Slambrouck. Both started and played all 90 minutes.

Kansas plays its first road games of the season next weekend, beginning with a 5:30 p.m. Friday meeting with Colorado.

So impressed with Sendish is KU coach Charlie Weis that he recently proclaimed that the junior-college transfer set to begin his second season with the Jayhawks may not be the best player on KU’s defense but was, without question, the skipper of the secondary.

“Cassius is probably the most natural leader on our team,” Weis said.

“I can’t see one thing about the kid that I don’t like. I’m a big fan.”

A lot of this might be news to most people.

Sure, Sendish was third on the team in tackles last season with 68, and, yeah, his name is one that usually raises an eyebrow and sticks in your mind.

But there’s nothing flashy about what he does on the field.

“The thing with Cassius is, he makes a lot of routine plays,” Vestal said. “It may be a six-yard tackle, but some people miss that tackle, and it becomes a house call.

Cassius does what he’s supposed to do.”

KU linebacker Ben Heeney, the opposite of Sendish in a lot of ways — loud game, well known name, native Kansan — said Sendish was the one player he made sure to communicate with before every snap. The two usually line up on the same side of the field, and Heeney said the comfort that comes from knowing Sendish is behind him is what allows him to let it rip.

“He’s one of the guys I can always count on,” Heeney said. “He’s one of the biggest keys to our defense.”

Royals plan to call up Finnegan Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Pitcher Brandon Finnegan, who was the Kansas City Royals’ firstround pick in the June draft out of TCU, will be among the September call-ups, the club said Sunday.

The previous two Royals players to make their major league debut the

same year they were drafted were Bo Jackson in 1986 and Jeff Granger in 1993.

No player drafted this June has played in the majors so far this season.

Finnegan has a 1.33 ERA, allowing four earned runs in 27 innings in 13 appearances with Double-A Northwest Ar-

kansas and Class A Wilmington.

He has struck out 26 and walked four.

The Royals also will call up outfielders Terrance Gore, who has 47 stolen bases in 54 attempts with two minorleague clubs, and Lane Adams, who hit .269 with Northwest Arkansas.

Reds 3, Pirates 2 Pittsburgh — Chris Heisey hit two home runs, including a tiebreaking shot in the ninth inning, and Johnny Cueto overcame an early jolt to earn his 16th win as Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh.

Heisey’s solo drive with one out in the ninth off Jared Hughes (6-5) helped the Reds avoid getting swept at PNC Park. Heisey began the day with just five homers in 229 at-bats this year.

BAYLOR WIDE RECEIVER KD CANNON (9) CELEBRATES HIS TOUCHDOWN CATCH with teammate Davion Hall during the Bears’ 45-0 victory Sunday in Waco, Texas.

Petty hurt in Bears’ win Waco, Texas (ap) — Bryce Petty took a bruising shot to his lower back on No. 10 Baylor’s first offensive drive in its new riverfront stadium.

The reigning Big 12 offensive player of the year then moved gingerly at times, often grabbing at his back and side between plays the rest of the first half.

Petty still managed to have a big impact in the impressive debut of McLane Stadium, accounting for three touchdowns in a 45-0 victory over SMU on Sunday night. He did not play in the second half.

“It’s nothing that serious. Everything’s good,” Petty insisted afterward.

“I’m already feeling a lot better.”

While he missed on a couple of passes he would usually complete, Petty was 13 of 23 for 161 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran for a score that put the Bears (1-0) up 31-0 by halftime.

“He had a couple of throws — he had guys in space and missed them.

We knew something was wrong, that’s not Bryce at all,” coach Art Briles said.

The way their defense played, the Big 12 champion Bears really didn’t need that much offense anyway.

SMU’s three quarterbacks were sacked a combined eight times.

The Mustangs (0-1) were held to 67 total yards, their fewest since coach June Jones took over in 2008, and shut out for the second time in their last three games.

“What allowed the game to be won tonight, the way we dominated defensively,” Briles said.

Jones’ predecessor at SMU was Phil Bennett, who is in his fourth season as Baylor’s defensive coordinator.

“We scripted a lot of things to get the ball out quickly but we did not do what we needed to do to win,” Jones said. “It’s hard for a quarterback to step back and throw anything when he doesn’t have time.”

On the day a statue of Robert Griffin III was dedicated, Petty extended his streak with at least one touchdown pass to a school-record 14 games, breaking a tie with Baylor’s only Heisman Trophy winner.

Griffin was on hand for the Bears’ first game on campus since 1935. The

Woman questions husband’s justifying of affairs Dear Annie: I have been married for 40 years to a man who had a few affairs in the past that I recently found out about.

We are both seeing counselors, privately and together. At this point in time, I am tired of dealing with this, and our marriage could well end in divorce.

But I am puzzled by what my husband told me. He said he learned in his psychology classes in college that “men are not designed for monogamy.” I have never heard him say anything of the sort in our entire 40 years together. Is this simply an excuse for me to forgive his affairs?

Or is the statement true?

He tells me he is done with other

women, but now I’m not so sure. Should I trust him again? — California Dear California: There is some support for your husband’s statement, but it does not justify affairs. Your husband is not some uncivilized animal with no concern for his partner.

We assume he is an adult and capable of self-control. But we can’t promise he will never have another

Houdini miniseries a 2-night trick The History Channel presents “Houdini” (8 p.m., TV-14), a two-night miniseries biography of the famous illusionist.

Academy Award-winning actor Adrien Brody (“The Pianist”) stars in the title role. ‘‘Houdini” is a handsome production and makes the most of the sleight-of-hand magic of the turn-of-the-century circus, music hall and vaudeville circuit.

We learn a great deal about Harry Houdini’s “illusions” and the trickery involved in slipping out of handcuffs, chains, safes, jail cells and water-filled chambers.

His life also unfolds in flashbacks to his modest childhood in Wisconsin, where Erich Weiss, the Hungarian-born son of Jewish immigrants, watched his rabbi father get fired from his American congregation for failing to speak English. Houdini’s childhood determination to leave Wisconsin behind never allows him to fully escape haunting memories of his father, shown here in less-thansubtle fashion.

CGI special effects show us how Houdini picks every lock and how his stomach muscles contract in pain every time he invites a stranger to punch him in his well-developed abdomen — a foreshadowing of the blow that would later purportedly kill him.

Despite these glances backward and forward and a curious detour into European intrigue when the showman conducted espionage for the U.S. Secret Service, “Houdini” lurches ahead in vaudevillian fashion — one darned thing after another.

It lacks any kind of dramatic tension. There are really no subplots or strong supporting characters to take the burden off the singular focus on one subject.

unless it has to do with work. — Feeling Lonely Dear Lonely: If you have your own office, your status must be higher than that of your coworkers. It is hardly unusual for staff members to associate mainly with those at a similar level of employment.

For your own peace of mind, please find friends elsewhere, and keep the office a place of professionalism.

Dear Annie: I work in an office with six women, and they all have cubicles. I have my own office. My problem is they do not associate with me. One woman in particular seems to run the show. I’ve tried to be friendly and converse with them, but I am snubbed.

I’ve been in the office for seven years.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Sept. 1, 2014: This year you open up to better communication between you and others. Your innate sense of direction mixed with your sensitivity provides a new, dynamic path if you are open to change. If you are single, check out a potential sweetie with scrutiny and perhaps even some cynicism. If you are attached, spending time alone with your significant other will delight both of you.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Deal with someone directly in the morning. A discussion might reveal that there is a lot of common ground that exists between you. Tonight: Look beyond the obvious.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ Others will be domineering. You might not like the implications of this behavior.

Tonight: Talk turkey.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ Act as if you have a special opportunity heading your way, and you are likely to make it become a reality. Tonight: Be a duo.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++++ Your creativity will be in higher demand than you realize.

Tonight: Play it easy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Getting going might take more effort than you realize. You

simply won’t be up for running around. Tonight: Let out your inner wild child.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ You might want to say something that’s been on your mind. Use care. Tonight: And the party goes on.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ Curb a tendency to be possessive or jealous, as it only creates tension. Tonight: Out late.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ++++ You’ll dive into your day full of energy. Tonight: Let someone else pick up the tab.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ Listen to a roommate’s or loved one’s thinking in the morning. An idea might appeal to you. Tonight: As you like it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ Listen to others during a meeting. Goodwill is likely to circulate among you and others.

Tonight: Go with the flow.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ Your words might hurt a friend, even if your intention was not to zero in on this person’s sensitivities. Tonight: Join a loved one for some fun.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ Defer to someone else, and recognize that the issue is much bigger than he or she will be able to visualize. Tonight: Out till the wee hours.
