JIM BUTLER, OF WELLSVILLE, kneels before the headstone of his son, Army Sgt. Jacob L. Butler, during a visit to Wellsville Cemetery on June 7. Jacob Butler, 24, was killed on April 1, 2003, while serving in As Samawah, Iraq. Jim Butler says that he visits his son’s burial site several times a week and has recently been going more often because he increasingly feels as though the sacrifices made by servicemen and women are forgotten.

IN THIS NOV. 6, 2011, FILE PHOTO, CHAD DEVEREAUX examines bricks that fell from three sides of his in-laws’ home in Sparks, Okla., following two earthquakes that hit the area in less than 24 hours. A study published Thursday by the journal Science explains how just four wells forcing massive amounts of drilling wastewater into the ground are probably causing quakes. The wells seem to have triggered more than 100 small-to-medium earthquakes in the past five years, according to a study.

Study shows how drilling wastewater causes quakes

By Seth Borenstein

“

It’s a study that needed to be done. That Associated Press changes how we might look at the hazard for Washington — A new a particular well.”

study explains how just four wells forcing massive amounts of drilling wastewater into the ground are probably shaking up Oklahoma.

Those wells seem to have triggered more than 100 small-to-medium earthquakes in the past five years, according to a study published Thursday by the journal Science. Many of the quakes were much farther away from the wells than expected.

Combined, those wells daily pour more than 5 million gallons of water a mile or two underground into rock formations, the study found. That buildup of fluid creates more pressure that “has to go somewhere,” said study lead author Cornell University seismologist Katie Keranen.

Researchers originally figured the water diffused through underground rocks slowly. But instead, it is moving faster and farther and triggers quake fault lines that already were likely ready to move, she said.

“You really don’t need to raise the pressure a great deal,” she added.

The study shows the likely way in which the pressure can trigger fault lines — which already existed yet were not too

active— but researchers need more detail on the liquid injections themselves to absolutely prove the case, Keranen said.

The wastewater is leftover from unconventional wells that drill for oil and gas with help of high pressure liquids — nicknamed fracking — and from the removal of water from diluted oil. These new methods mean much more wastewater has to be discarded. While there are about 8,000 deep injection wells in the region, the amount of water injected at the four wells — named Chambers, Deep Throat, Flower Power and Sweetheart — has more than doubled since the drilling boom started about a decade ago.

From 1976 to 2007, Oklahoma each year averaged about one quake of magnitude 3 or more — strong enough to feel locally but too weak to cause damage. But from 2008 to 2013, the state averaged 44 earthquakes of that size every year. So far this year there have been another 233, Keranen said, getting her earthquake figures from

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said Thursday the two adults represent the state’s first identified cases of travel-associated chikungunya virus. Both adults are from Sedgwick County and made separate trips to the Caribbean.

The virus causes fever and joint pain, along with headaches, rash and muscle pain. It’s rarely fatal, but KDHE Secretary Robert Moser says it can be serious and debilitating.

Chikungunya virus has been known for decades in Africa and Asia. The first case directly caused by a mosquito in the Western Hemisphere was documented late last year, in French St. Martin.

The ring staged accidents and filed false theft reports for the insurance money.

Emporia — A technical college in eastern Kansas is taking another step toward energy self-sufficiency with the installation of solar panels.

The Emporia Gazette reports the panels are being put in place this week at Flint Hills Technical College.

The school’s Emporia campus also has a halfdozen geothermal wells, each 200 feet deep, and a turbine to generate wind energy.

Flint Hills moved a few years ago into a new building designed by architecture students from Kansas State University to be energy-efficient. The technical college is enrolled in Westar Energy’s solar program, which helped fund the solar panels.

College officials say that along with saving money on utilities, the school expects to generate enough energy to return some of it to Westar’s grid.

Federal mediator called in on firefighter pay

JAE PHILLIPS AND HER 2-YEAR-OLD SON JERICHO TATUM, residents of the Lawrence Community Shelter, 3655 North 1360 Road, take a break from painting the fence in the children’s playground area at the shelter Thursday. The painting project was made possible by donations from Lawrence residents Marcia Epstein and Allan Martin and with the help of lead painter KT Walsh.

The city of Lawrence and the firefighters union have reached an impasse in pay negotiations, so now the two sides will take their dispute to a federal mediator, it was announced Thursday.

Lawrence firefighters are scheduled to receive a 1 percent pay raise in 2015, but the International Association of Firefighters Local 1596 says Lawrence firefighters are making 8.5 percent less than firefighters in peer cities.

“We are losing ground every year,” said Ryan Hornberger, president of IAFF Local 1596.

City officials disagree with the 8.5 percent figure and say a 1 percent increase in 2015 is enough at this time.

Rain comes too late to help southwest Kansas wheat crop Offerle (ap) — As much as drought-stricken southwest Kansas needed the rain, June’s unusually high amount of precipitation in the region came too late to help the wheat crop but just in time to delay harvesting of the plants that managed to survive.

Usually the harvest would be complete in the region, but many farmers like Ken Burghart in Offerle have been unable to get their combines into muddy fields.

Burghart, of Texas, was in Kansas to help his family harvest in between rains that just seemed to keep coming in June, the Hutchinson News reported.

“We love the rain,” Burghart said, “but we would like it to be timed a little different. We want to it to go away for a week.”

In Garden City, the period of January through May was the driest on record. But in June, the 10.5 inches of rain that fell more than tripled the 3 inches the city normally receives for the month.

Garden City Co-op,

and was the amount in the agreement,” said Assistant City Manager Diane Stoddard.

The current memorandum of understanding between the city and union runs from 2012 to 2015 but has a clause to open negotiations for a wage adjustment for 2015.

Under the agreement, firefighters received a 1 percent increase in 2012, 1.5 percent in 2013, 1.5 percent this year, and are scheduled to receive a 1 percent increase next year.

When the contract started, Lawrence firefighters were making 5 percent less than firefighters in cities such as Lenexa, Olathe, Overland Park, Shawnee, Kansas City, Kan., and others, Hornberger said.

Now they are trailing by 8.5 percent based on research performed by the city and IAFF, he said.

But Stoddard said it is difficult to compare salaries, because each city has a different salary structure.

While the maximum pay

$30 million. The 1.85 mill increase would raise taxes on a typical $170,000 home by about $36 a year.

Corliss’ budget touted Lawrence as being in the midst of a “ribbon cutting year” as an $18 million expansion of the Lawrence Public Library is scheduled to open this month, and the city’s multimillion-dollar recreation center at Rock Chalk Park is set to open in September. But Corliss said more mundane items — such as an increase in employee pension costs and other overhead — will necessitate an increase in property tax rates.

“Pension costs are on the way to being one of the largest expenses in the city budget,” Corliss said. “Our revenues are alive and healthy, but they are not growing anywhere near the rate those expenses are.”

Payments to the two pension funds the city participates in are estimated to increase by nearly 11 percent in 2015, or about $725,000. The

We’ve had days the wheat will be dry, but the fields are so muddy — the guys don’t want to go in and tear up the fields.”

— Ken Jameson, vice president of Garden City Co-op’s grain division

with about 20 elevator sites across southwest Kansas, has taken in only about 2 million bushels — half of this year’s crop — because of the rainfall and high humidity that allowed farmers to cut only four or five hours a day, said Ken Jameson, the coop’s grain division vice president.

“We’ve had days the wheat will be dry, but the fields are so muddy — the guys don’t want to go in and tear up the fields,” he said.

The rain has lowered the wheat crop’s quality, Jameson said, and yields have been poor due to the lack of moisture in the spring. Yields ranged from 2.7 bushels per acre to 70 bushels on dryland acreage north of Dighton that received a few timely rains.

McLinn’s recorded statements could be used in murder trial

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @Caitlin Doornbos

A Douglas County District Court judge has ruled that recorded statements regarding the slaying of a Lawrence businessman were voluntarily made by a teenage defendant McLinn and may be used at her upcoming trial on charges of first-degree murder.

Judge Paula Martin made the ruling Thursday in the case of Sarah McLinn, who is accused of killing Harold M. Sako, 52, in mid-January at Sasko’s Lawrence home, where McLinn, 19, was living at the time.

Thursday’s ruling came

for different categories of firefighters in Lawrence is lower than the peer cities, Lawrence firefighters hit that maximum earlier in their careers, she said.

She said adjusting salary structures is something the city would like to negotiate with the union when talks start on a 2016 pay plan.

But union officials said the city has agreed on the peer pay comparisons when it suits its purposes.

“The city’s decision to refute past practices and pay philosophy sends a message that public safety is no longer a priority for the city of Lawrence,” Hornberger said.

Stoddard disagreed with that assertion. “We believe that public safety is a priority, and we appreciate their services that we all depend on. We have continued to reinvest in employee compensation and in critical safety equipment,” she said.

The results of a meeting with a federal mediator aren’t binding. If the two sides fail to reach an agreement, the issue would next go to the City Commission for a decision. No timetable has been set yet to meet with a mediator.

pects the cooperative to bring in about 40 percent of the normal harvest.

To the north at Scott City Co-op, general manager Gary Friesen said he expects to take in about 65 percent of a normal harvest because of drought and hail damage.

Despite some hassles caused by the June rains, the precipitation has been a nice change, he said.

“While it has created problems with wheat harvest, it has brought on good potential for fall crops,” Friesen said.

North of Garden City, farmer Rodger Funk, 86, said he has seen many dry years, but this one might be the worst for wheat he has ever experienced.

city has faced higher pension costs for years — the increase in 2014 is actually expected to be greater than the 2015 increase — but Corliss said it has become more difficult to absorb those costs into the budget.

Corliss is asking for new property taxes that will generate about $1.5 million in new revenue for the city. The bulk of the increase — $1.3 million — will be devoted to the pension fund issue, increased health insurance costs and other overhead costs related to existing and new employees.

Also contributing to the proposed tax increase is additional operating funds for the expanded library at about $200,000, an additional police sergeant at $125,000 and $100,000 in operating funds for the proposed Peaslee Technical Training Center that would be run by local economic development organizations and area community colleges.

If approved, the increase will mark the fourth consecutive year that the city has increased its property tax rate, with the mill levy rising to 31.89 mills, up

from 26.69 mills in 2010.

City commissioners will have the final say on the city’s budget and its tax rate. Commissioners will discuss Corliss’ recommended budget at a Tuesday afternoon study session. Commissioners are scheduled to finalize the 2015 budget by midAugust.

Here’s a look at the highlights of the recommended budget: l Total spending in 2015 is budgeted to be $188.3 million. The city’s property tax base — the value of all taxable property in the community — is expected to grow by 2 percent, its largest increase since 2007.

Sales tax revenues are expected to increase by about 2.5 percent over estimated 2014 totals. l The budget recommends adding nine new employees to the City Hall ranks: a director of arts and culture; an inspector position for the city’s new rental registration program; a municipal court clerk; a police sergeant; three inspectors in public works; an information technology manager; and an accountant position. Some of the positions will be paid for through general tax dollars, while others like

“

the rental inspector and municipal court clerk will be paid for through user fees. Four of the positions previously had been on the city’s payroll but were eliminated through attrition during the economic downturn.

The nine new employees continue a recent trend of an employee build-up at City Hall. If approved, the new hires will bring the total number of new employees since 2013 to 33, about a 4.5 percent increase in the size of the city’s workforce. l In addition to the full-time director of arts and culture, the budget recommends spending $3 million to improve Ninth Street east of Massachusetts Street as part of an arts-oriented project.

The community recently received a $500,000 national art grant that involves making improvements to the corridor that connects downtown to the Warehouse Arts District. The city is estimating its share of the improvements at $3 million. Corliss is recommending delaying two other capital improvement projects in order to pay for the project.

He is recommending that planned improvements to the develop-

during a Jackson v. Denno hearing, which is conducted to determine whether confessions or statements by a defendant were given involuntarily and, if so, whether they can be used in court as evidence.

McLinn’s recorded interviews with investigators were not played at Thursday’s hearing. Martin listened to them privately to make her determination.

McLinn’s attorney, Carl Cornwell, said the defense did not object to the recordings being played at the jury trial. He reiterated Thursday that his client has never denied committing the crime.

McLinn and Sasko, who owned Cici’s Pizza franchises in Lawrence and Topeka, had been living together at 2905 W. 26th St. Prosecutors allege that in mid-January McLinn drugged Sasko

at the home, bound his wrists and ankles with zip ties and cut his throat with a large hunting knife, nearly decapitating him. They also allege that she wrote in Sasko’s blood on a wall. After the crime, they said, she stole Sasko’s car and fled to Florida, where she was apprehended at Everglades National Park.

Cornwell intends to argue that McLinn should not be found guilty of firstdegree murder by reason of mental disease or defect.

McLinn sat solemnly through Thursday’s fiveminute hearing, looking down at her folded hands in her lap, her dark hair pulled into a bun. Her ankles were shackled together beneath her orange, jail-issued pants.

Her jury trial is scheduled to begin on Jan. 5, 2015.

was not aware at the time that the Utah Highway Patrol had seized 40 pounds of high-grade marijuana from co-defendant Stephen Rector in March 2012. But Park said that Los Dahda did make vague mention of losing a shipment when Park was asked if he knew Pickel had about 38 pounds of marijuana seized during an April 2012 traffic stop in Nebraska.

“Everything was just going chaotic,” Peter Park said in U.S. District Court Thursday. “So I had concerns.”

Finally, Park became one of the case’s many co-defendants arrested on June 13, 2012 — the culmination of an investigation that began in September 2011 by the Lawrence-Douglas County Drug Enforcement Unit and other law enforcement agencies. Park, still in federal custody, said he agreed to cooperate with authorities two days after his arrest, and in five subsequent meetings Park discussed his involvement, what he knew and pored over his detailed business ledgers.

Often jovial this week, Park broke down in court Thursday when Assistant U.S. Attorney Terra Morehead asked him if he knew his potential sentence: 10 years to life for conspiracy and an additional five to life for having had firearms seized in the investigation.

Park pleaded guilty to the two charges in March 2013.

He could face a reduced sentence for his coopera-

tion with law enforcement.

“I have a young family,” Park said. “I didn’t expect it to be … I just made a bad mistake. It’s not just me: I’m hurting my kids and my wife.”

Later Thursday, Los Dahda’s attorney, Richard Johnson, engaged in a heated exchange with Park during cross-examination before the end of the halfday session. Johnson began by questioning Park about his having previously sold to his cocaine customers a substitute cocktail made with bath salts from China, caffeine and an anesthetic.

The tone quickly became confrontational as Johnson repeatedly asked Park if he thought what he did was dishonest and whether he truly knew the substance’s effect on its customers. After several bouts of Johnson talking over Park, Judge Kathryn Vratil interjected, calling the exchange an “argument,” “sarcastic” and “completely improper.”

Johnson also questioned Park’s memory, citing moments when he couldn’t recall all of his employees’ surnames, an investment broker’s name and even his wedding date — which Park was able to recall in court Thursday.

Cross-examination of Park will continue Monday as the trial resumes without further breaks until its conclusion. ­ Reporter Stephen Montemayor can be — reached at 832-7160 or smontemayor@ ljworld.com.

Corliss also is recommending that the city significantly reduce the amount of money it would spend on projects to improve traffic flow on Bob Billings Parkway. Several west Lawrence residents have asked for improvements on Bob Billings Parkway in anticipation of increased traffic loads once the Bob Billings and South Lawrence Trafficway interchange opens in 2016. l The recommended budget includes $100,000 for the proposed Peaslee Technical Training Center, which has been touted by economic development leaders as a key initiative to help attract and grow businesses. But the budget does not include $500,000 for building expenses at the center, which is proposed for an industrial building near 31st and

Haskell. Corliss said the money could be added at a later time, but he wants to see more architectural details about the building project. l Corliss is recommending a $40,000 increase in funding for the Lawrence Community Shelter, which falls short of the $200,000 increase the homeless shelter had sought. The recommended budget also includes $20,000 in increased funding for the Lawrence Humane Society but does not include a $200,000 request for capital improvement funds for the animal shelter. The recommended budget does not include a requested $162,500 in marketing funds for a program by Douglas County Senior Services to attract retirees to the community.

AN AMERICAN FLAG HANGS from his front porch as Curt Somers, of Lawrence, mows his lawn on June 19. “I put it up for the Fourth of July before 9/11, and it’s been there ever since,” he said.

A LIKENESS OF MALCOLM X and Martin Luther King Jr. hangs on the wall behind Martin Watson, owner of Watson’s Barber Shop, 925 Iowa St., on June 19 as he gives a trim to a customer. Watson says he would like to see more black role models who are not athletes or celebrities step up into leadership positions in American society.

CJ BRUNE, a longtime local peace activist, pictured June 24 in her Lawrence home, said, “The hope I see is that the younger the age group is, the more they have developed a sense of community clear back like it was 1964 all over again. The younger people seem to be worried about everybody, including (those) that live down the street, including the people in gated communities. It’s going to take everybody working together to make significant changes.” Watch the video interview at LJWorld.com.

THE CHOICE to have an eagle holding an American shield tattooed across his midsection was made for patriotic reasons, Leavenworth resident Wade Cobb said on June 17 at his home. “My family is pretty patriotic,” he said. “My dad’s side of the family has been (here) since the 17th century. I figure we’re pretty close to American as you can get. We’re proud of our country.”

Arthur shakes up holiday plans along East Coast

By Emery P. Dalesio Associated Press

Kill Devil Hills, N.C. — A strengthening Hurricane Arthur forced thousands of vacationers on the North Carolina coast to abandon their Independence Day plans while cities farther up the East Coast rescheduled fireworks displays threatened by rain from the storm.

After passing over or near North Carolina early this morning, Hurricane Arthur was expected to weaken as it travels northward and slings rain along the East Coast. The annual Boston Pops Fourth of July concert and fireworks show was rescheduled for Thursday because of potential heavy rain from Arthur, while fireworks displays in New Jersey and Maine were postponed until later in the weekend.

Arthur strengthened to a Category 2 storm with winds in excess of 100 mph Thursday evening.

It could be even stronger when it passes early this morning over or near the Outer Banks — a 200-mile string of narrow barrier islands with about 57,000 permanent residents.

The islands are susceptible to high winds, rough seas and road-clogging sands, prompting an exodus that began Wednesday night.

Many island residents, meanwhile, decided to ride out the powerful storm rather than risk losing access to homes connected to the mainland by the highway prone to washouts.

“All the people that I know who live here are staying put,” said Mike Rabe, who planned to stay in his Rodanthe home despite an evacuation order for surrounding Hatteras Island.

The departures of vacationers left things “pretty dead” on Hatteras Island during the normally bustling run-up to the Independence Day weekend, Rabe said. He spent Thursday running errands and helping neighbors prepare their homes for the storm.

Before the storm hit, tourism officials had expected 250,000 people to travel to the Outer Banks for the holiday weekend.

Gov. Pat McCrory sought to strike a balance between a warning to vacationers and optimism that part of the busy weekend could be salvaged.

BRIEFLY Ex-Blackwater guard testifies in case Washington — Former Blackwater security guard Matthew Murphy and now-indicted ex-colleague Paul Slough were friends, having survived the war in Iraq together, creating a bond that under different circumstances might have lasted a lifetime.

But from the witness stand in the Blackwater criminal trial this week, Murphy testified that he saw Slough fire at least two grenades into a car where a woman and her son died, two of 14 Iraqis killed on Sept. 16, 2007, in a downtown Baghdad square.

In three days of testimony, Murphy became the first Blackwater security guard to testify against his former associates in a trial expected to take months.

Slough is charged with manslaughter, attempted manslaughter and violating gun laws, as are two other defendants, Dustin Heard and Evan Liberty. A fourth defendant, Nicholas Slatten, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of the driver of the car. All four have pleaded not guilty.

Jobs report shows U.S. recovery is accelerating

By Josh Boak Associated Press

Washington — A surprisingly robust job market is energizing the 5-year-old U.S. recovery and driving the economy closer to full health.

Employers added 288,000 jobs in June and helped cut the unemployment rate to 6.1 percent, the lowest since 2008. It was the fifth straight gain above 200,000 — the best such stretch since the late 1990s tech boom.

The stock market signaled its approval.

The Dow Jones industrial average surged 92 points to top 17,000 for the first time.

The breadth and consistency of the job growth are striking in part because of how poorly the year began.

“

In the past 12 months, the economy has added nearly 2.5 million jobs — an average of 208,000 a month, the fastest year-over-year pace since 2006.

Economists say the steady U.S. hiring should fuel more purchases of goods from Asia and Europe and strengthen those economies at least slightly.

Much of Europe is suffering from high unemployment. And China is trying to moderate its economy’s growth without slowing it too much.

“If we have some momentum going into the second half of the year, it helps the world economy because we’re big consumers,” said Stuart Hoffman, chief economist at PNC Financial Services.

This has now become a textbook jobs expansion. It is both broad and accelerating.”

— Patrick O’Keefe, director of economic research at CohnReznick

The economy shrank at a steep 2.9 percent annual rate in the January-March quarter as a harsh winter contributed to the sharpest contraction since the depths of the recession.

Yet employers have shrugged off that setback. They’ve kept hiring.

The unemployment rate dipped from 6.3 percent in May to its lowest level since the financial crisis struck with full force in the fall of 2008, when the Wall Street firm Lehm-

an Brothers went bankrupt.

“This has now become a textbook jobs expansion,” said Patrick O’Keefe, director of economic research at the consultancy CohnReznick. “It is both broad and accelerating.”

At least one nagging doubt is dampening the enthusiasm: Can the stepped-up hiring lead to higher incomes?

Wages have yet to outpace inflation for most workers.

Eventually, analysts say, the falling unemployment rate

should cause pay to rise more sharply. But no one knows precisely when.

The jobs report did make clear that, five years after the recession officially ended, the U.S. economy is showing more vitality even as major economies in Europe and Asia continue to struggle.

Last month’s solid hiring followed gains of 217,000 jobs in May and 304,000 in April, figures that were revised upward by a combined 29,000.

Transformational leader A new nontraditional residence hall at Kansas State University will bear the name of one of the school’s most notable presidents.

F

ew American university presidents or chancellors have made such a positive difference in their institutions as did Jon Wefald in his 23 years as president of Kansas State University.

The Minnesota native stepped aside as KSU president in 2009, and, last week, university and Kansas Board of Regents officials announced that a new “transformational” eight-floor, 180,00-squarefoot residence hall at the school would be named Wefald Hall.

In making this announcement, Regent Ed McKechnie said, “This is a transformational hall, which is pretty neat for a transformational guy.”

Regent Fred Logan said, “I think if you look at higher education in Kansas, Jon Wefald, it’s fair to say, was an historic figure and he was an historic president.”

Wefald arrived in Manhattan in the summer of 1986 after serving as chancellor of Minnesota’s state university system.

K-State was down in most every category: enrollment, private fiscal support, faculty morale and the condition of its physical plant. The school also was close to being ousted from the Big Eight athletic conference because its football team had one of the nation’s worst win-loss records.

In the next 23 years, a huge transformation took place under Wefald’s leadership. Student enrollment grew from approximately 16,000 to more than 23,000; new buildings were added on the campus; research funding climbed from $18 million a year to nearly $134 million; private fiscal support grew from about $6 million a year to close to $100 million; faculty excellence was upgraded, student academic achievement in various national competitions topped most other public universities; and morale, enthusiasm and school spirit soared.

From being on the brink of dismissal from the Big Eight Conference, the KState Wildcats football team became a winner, bringing home conference and post-season bowl championships.

Wefald turned the school around!

He put together a good, hard-working and talented support team and was an enthusiastic, full-time recruiter and supporter of the university. He made a point to balance his efforts to strengthen the school, making sure the physical plant, faculty, students, academic and athletic programs all were treated fairly.

Wefald served far longer than most university presidents and chancellors.

Today, university leaders usually serve between five and seven years. It is a tough and demanding job.

It is entirely fitting that the new 540-student “transformational” residence hall, which is designed with a nontraditional environment, will carry the name of Wefald, a nontraditional and sometimes maverick university president who got things done.

Court unanimous but divided Washington — Even when Supreme Court decisions are unanimous, the justices can be fiercely divided about fundamental matters, as was demonstrated by two 9-0 rulings last week. One overturned a Massachusetts law restricting speech near abortion clinics. The other invalidated recess appointments that President Obama made when the Senate said it was not in recess. In the first, four justices who concurred in the result rejected the majority’s reasoning because it minimized the law’s constitutional offense. In the second, four justices who concurred with the court’s judgment that Obama had exceeded his powers argued that the majority’s reasoning validated the Senate’s long complicity in practices that augment presidential power by diminishing the Senate’s power to advise and consent to presidential nominations.

A provision of Massachusetts’ law stipulated 35-foot zones around abortion clinics, from which spaces people wanting to engage in sidewalk counseling — urging women to forgo abortions — would be excluded. Another provision that makes it a criminal offense if someone “knowingly obstructs, detains, hinders, impedes or blocks” persons approaching abortion clinics raises no First Amendment problems.

The challenged provision, however, proscribes persuasion in a public place, speech which unwilling listeners can walk away from.

The court unanimously held that the state may not protect persons seeking abortions from peaceful attempts

“

The Constitution’s purposes and architecture were sacrificed twice to produce 9-0 decisions.” to change their minds. But Chief Justice John Roberts, practicing judicial minimalism, argued only that the Massachusetts law was unnecessarily broad for protecting public order. Roberts wrote that the buffer zone — a euphemism for a no-speech zone — is “content neutral” because it does not discriminate against a particular point of view. This nonsense may have been necessary for preserving unanimity with the more liberal justices — Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

Justice Antonin Scalia, however, in a concurrence that was 95 percent dissent, called Massachusetts’ law “unconstitutional root and branch” because, far from being content neutral, it pertains only to abortion clinics, it predictably will restrict only persons speaking against what the clinics do, and it restricts them in places — public sidewalks — where free speech is protected. Justices Antho-

ny Kennedy and Clarence Thomas joined Scalia’s concurrence and Justice Samuel Alito wrote a similar one.

The second 9-0 decision rebuked Obama for one of his anti-constitutional excesses. But that foreordained result was less important than the peculiar reasoning that perhaps was necessary to make unanimity possible.

A Washington state business, having received an adverse ruling from the National Labor Relations Board, argued that the board had an illegitimate quorum.

Obama had made recess appointments to the board when the Senate was holding (as it has done with the consent of both parties) pro forma meetings — and conducting some business — every three days to establish that it was not in recess.

Obama, with his characteristic constitutional crudeness, is the first president to assert that he can declare the Senate in recess during three-day sessions, which the Constitution stipulates is the maximum time the Senate can adjourn without the House’s consent.

The Recess Appointments Clause says: “The president shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate.” Note the words “happen” and “the” — the definite article — before “recess.” Nevertheless, for much of the nation’s life, presidents have been making, without strenuous Senate objections, intra-session as well as inter-session recess appointments to fill vacancies that did not occur

during the recess.

The court did not quite rule that tradition validates departures from the Constitution’s text. But neither did it say, as it should have, that even long-standing practices should end when they are deemed to conflict with an unambiguous text. Instead, Breyer practiced a perverse form of judicial restraint, decreeing that a recess of less than 10 days is “presumptively” too short for recess appointments. In another dissent-as-concurrence, Scalia, joined by Roberts, Thomas and Alito, noted that Breyer’s presumption leaves presidents with much more latitude than the Constitution’s text stipulates.

Unanimity is not only spurious, it is injurious when purchased at the price of compromises that suggest disingenuousness. The Constitution’s purposes and architecture were sacrificed twice to produce 9-0 decisions. One denied the obvious — that Massachusetts’ law was written to impede antiabortion speech. The other flinched from the fact that the Recess Appointments Clause requires judicial enforcement, not Breyer’s judicial embroidery to allow continuation of behavior that both elected branches under both parties have found convenient. Two conservative priorities, defending freedom of speech and curtailing arbitrary exercises of presidential power, were undermined by judicial minimalism — aka judicial restraint — that conservatives praise more frequently than thoughtfully.

Don’t celebrate war To the editor: The Star-Spangled Banner is sung at sporting events, ball games and Fourth of July celebrations around the country with great gusto by fans in the stands with words like “the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air.” Fantastic fireworks displays follow, designed to thrill and delight the masses and are enjoyed by all with one exception: a combat veteran.

For these men, the streaming trails of fire, the shattering explosions, the bright flares, the bombs bursting and detonations of high explosives take them to a dark place in their soul, long kept distant. It brings feelings of loss, of melancholia, a powerful overwhelming sadness, and despair, a regret that innocence lost so long ago will never return.

Veterans have seen real fire trails and the walking shadows of phosphorous flares, heard the exploding sounds of death and personally experienced the painful, tragic results from brutal war up front and personal.

To veterans, war is not something to celebrate; nor a song to sing.

Curtis D. Bennett, Lawrence

Precious rights To the editor: As we celebrate the Fourth of July it is important to remember that, before the sales and the fireworks, it was in a time of uncertainty and some fear that it came about.

In 1761, a lawyer named James Otis argued that the Bill of Rights, Magna Carta and the Common Law prohibited the agents of the crown from using writs of

assistance (general warrants) to search whomever, wherever and whatever they chose. He did not prevail in that case for the subjects living in Massachusetts.

Rather he started a period of petition and civil disobedience among the subjects which culminated in armed rebellion in April of 1775.

In July of 1776, a group gathered in Philadelphia and signed the most significant paper in the history of the united colonies. It began, “The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America.”

At that point the subjects of His Majesty’s colonies became citizens of States. Seven years of war lay ahead before that citizenship was secured.

Those in Philadelphia knew they faced the noose but they signed anyway.

“And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”

Citizenship does not grant rights — those come from nature and nature’s god. But citizenship imposes duties to stand up those rights against those who would infringe them and assure that those rights remain for all in the republic and for posterity.

Earl Haehl, Lawrence

Environmental aliens To the editor: Upon driving past K-10 in east Lawrence the other day, I did a double take.

Like an alien invasion from “War of the Worlds,” giant metal cranes stuck their heads out of the forest like extraterrestrial invaders. And like said invaders,

these cranes encroached upon the land, ready to clear it for the South Lawrence Trafficway.

On the other side of the road, steady plumes of hazy smoke slowly drifted up toward the sky; the trees below seemed to suffocate in response. A few days later, I saw that the vegetation was gone as the bare, pavement-ready ground replaced it. The environmental destruction along K-10 makes the $174,723,000 South Lawrence Trafficway seem meager; after all, how can you put a price tag on Mother Earth?

Infrastructure development is very important. At the same time, it must be compatible with environmental conservation, since our natural surroundings also play a crucial role in our standard of living. Infrastructure isn’t all about roads and buildings; it’s also about the environment and, more importantly, coexisting with our surroundings. Razing parts of a forest takes only a few months or years, while regrowing it takes decades and generations.

The vegetation in our world is decreasing, so do your part in conserving it! After all, unlike the aliens in “War of the Worlds,” we have no other planet in which to take refuge.

Dear Readers: Happy July 4! Here’s a little history of the Liberty Bell: The Pennsylvania Assembly ordered the Liberty Bell in 1751 to commemorate the 50-year anniversary of William Penn’s Charter of Privileges, the original Constitution of the state of Pennsylvania. On Nov. 1, 1751, a letter was sent to order a bell from Whitechapel Foundry in London and to inscribe on it a passage from Leviticus: “Proclaim LIBERTY throughout all the Land unto all the Inhabitants thereof — Lev. XXV X.

By Order of the ASSEMBLY of the Province of PENSYLVANIA for the State House in Philada.”

The bell was hung on March 10, 1753, and cracked the first time it was struck. At the time, it was thought that the bell was too brittle. Two Philadelphia foundry work-

ers named John Pass and John Stow were given the cracked bell to be melted down and recast. They added copper in an attempt to make the new bell less brittle.

No one liked the sound, so Pass and Stow tried again. In November, the sound still wasn’t good enough, so a new one was ordered from Whitechapel. When the new bell arrived, it sounded no better than the other one, so the Whitechapel bell ended up in the cupola on the State House

The Liberty Bell tolled when Benjamin Franklin was sent to England to address Colonial grievances, it tolled when King George III ascended to the throne in 1761, and it tolled to call together the people of Philadelphia to discuss the Sugar Act in 1764 and the Stamp Act in 1765.

In October 1777, the British occupied Philadelphia. The Liberty Bell was hidden in the floorboards of the Zion Reformed Church in Allentown. According to tradition, it continued tolling for the First Continental Congress in 1774, the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775 and on July 8, 1776, when it summoned the citizenry for the reading of the Declaration of Independence.

Starting in the 1880s, the bell traveled to cities around the country “proclaiming liberty” and inspiring the cause of freedom. Each year, the bell is gently tapped in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

its archrival.

After their talks Thursday, South Korean President Park Geun-hye told reporters that she and Xi agreed on the need to rid North Korea of nuclear weapons and would resolutely oppose any more nuclear tests.

North Korea is thought to have a handful of crude nuclear weapons and has conducted three atomic tests since 2006, the most recent last year.

Xi also called for negotiations to end the North’s nuclear program and the uncertainty that lingers on the Korean Peninsula.

Seoul, South Korea — With a single meeting Thursday, the leaders of China and South Korea simultaneously snubbed North Korea, bolstered their already booming trade relationship and gave the U.S. and Japan a look at Beijing’s growing influence south of Jinping the Korean Demilitarized Zone.

There were smiles, cheering schoolchildren and red carpets as Chinese President Xi Jinping began a two-day visit to Seoul.

North Korea, meanwhile, welcomed the leader of its only major ally and crucial source of fuel and food to the Korean Peninsula with a flurry of recent rocket and missile tests, the latest on Wednesday. The launches, as well as a vow Thursday by North Korea’s military to conduct more

Dempsey laid out a grim assessment of the Iraqi security forces, saying that while they are capable of defending Baghdad, they don’t have the logistical ability to launch an offensive. ISIS, meanwhile, has made significant and rapid advances but is now stretched in its ability to control the land it has taken, he said.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, speaking at the same Pentagon news conference, announced that about 200 U.S. military advisers are now in Iraq assessing the situation, and they have opened a second joint operating center in the north in Irbil.

Lou Gehrig glove could sell for $200K Greenwich, Conn. — It was some 80 years ago that Lou Gehrig and the 12-year-old son of

a songwriter got bored with talk of music and opted to play catch instead.

The legendary New York Yankees slugger and the boy were fast friends and next time they tossed the ball around the front yard, Gehrig brought Howard Henderson — a fellow lefty — a better glove.

The autographed mitt — “To Howard. I hope you have much luck with this glove as I did.

Lou Gehrig.” — will be auctioned off July 15. It is expected to sell for between $200,000 and $300,000.

Henderson, now a retired architect who lives in Greenwich, turns 92 on Friday. That’s also the 75th anniversary of Gehrig’s famous July 4th farewell speech at Yankee Stadium, in which he called himself “the luckiest man on the face of the Earth” despite being diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

on the state of Iraq and the U.S. military’s effort there, Dempsey said the U.S. is still assessing the situation, and American troops are not involved in combat.

“This is not 2003. It’s not 2006. This is a very different approach than we’ve taken in the past,” Dempsey said. “Assessing, advising and enabling are very different words than ... attacking, defeating and disrupting.

We may get to that point, if our national interests drive us there, if ISIS becomes such a threat to the homeland that the president of the United States, with our advice, decides we have to take direct action. I’m just suggesting to you we’re not there yet.”

Washington — The U.S. is not close to launching a military assault against an Iraqi insurgent group but “may get to that point” if the militants become a threat to the American homeland, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said Thursday.

Gen. Martin Dempsey told Pentagon reporters that he does not, at this point, believe the U.S. needs to send in an “industrial strength” force with a mountain of supplies to bolster the Iraqi troops as they battle the fast-moving Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, insurgency. Instead he said the most urgent need still is a political solution centered on a more inclusive Iraqi government.

“That’s obviously one possibility, but it’s not one that personally I think the situation demands,” Dempsey said when asked about plans to send more troops. “I think the situation demands first and foremost that the Iraqi political system find a way to separate the Sunnis who have partnered now with ISIL, because they have zero confidence in the ability of Iraq’s politicians to govern.”

Wayne who?

Kansas RB Mann plans to play

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY STANDOUT WAYNE SIMIEN LEADS PARTICIPANTS in his Called to Greatness girls basketball camp on Thursday at Lawrence High. Simien will hold a boys camp July 8-10, also at LHS.

Simien relatively unknown now

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

There was a time when Kansas University basketball standout Wayne Simien, an All-American and Big 12 Player of the Year in 2005, couldn’t go anywhere in Lawrence without getting recognized.

At the conclusion of a three-day basketball camp for girls Thursday at Lawrence High, the man who produced 38 career doubledoubles for the Jayhawks said that’s no longer the case.

“I’ve been removed far enough that kids don’t even remember when I was playing,” the 31-year-old Simien said, “which is why it’s the Called to Greatness Camp, not the Wayne Simien Camp.

Like, ‘Who’s Wayne Simien?’

But again, that’s just fine, because it’s more about the message and the skill than it is about the person. I don’t

want to make this about personality or reputation.”

Simien’s job as the KU campus minister for Called to Greatness keeps him around the program’s current basketball players while he aims to help students and studentathletes “navigate the waters of college that are sometimes turbulent.”

One couldn’t tell by looking at him, but the 2005 firstround NBA Draft pick of the Miami Heat only plays basketball about once a year and stays fit with all the exercises and nutritional disci-

pline Kansas strength coach Andrea Hudy “beat over” his head. Chasing around his five young kids does the job, too — “That’s a calorie-burner,” Simien added.

He hasn’t gone up against any of KU’s incoming freshmen in pick-up games, but the one-time big man on campus has seen a few of them play in person and is excited about Bill Self’s haul of post Cliff Alexander, point guard Devonté Graham and wings Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and Kelly Oubre.

“I’m looking forward

Where Simien was picked in the 2005 NBA Draft, by the Miami Heat

to seeing them in action,” Simien said. “I really like Devonté Graham, because he was the freshman I knew the least about before he came here. I think he and Frank (Mason, a sophomore guard) could be a great tandem for us this year. And, of course, playing the post, I’m partial to big guys. Cliff, he’s pretty raw, but his upside and his athleticism will make him a force to be reckoned with in the Big 12. And I think you pair that with a skill guy, Please see SIMIEN, page 3C

When former Hartnell College running back De’Andre Mann began looking for a place to continue his college football career, he had just one thing in mind — playing time.

The Miami native was not interested in going to a program with the brightest lights, best reputation or biggest name. He simply wanted to play.

To some, that made his commitment to Kansas University a curious choice, given that the Jayhawks were slated to return three running backs with significant experience — Brandon Bourbon, Taylor Cox and Darrian Miller — and added another, four-star freshmanto-be Traevohn Wrench, in Mann’s recruiting class. But that, too, turned into part of the challenge for Mann, a 5-foot-10, 200-pound package of fury who never has shied away from competition.

“As I told the coaches, I’m not planning on red-shirting wherever I go,” Mann said in an interview on signing day in early February. “No disrespect to anybody who’s there, I just believe in my talents, and the coaches told me I’d have an opportunity at Kansas to compete for a starting spot.”

KU coach Charlie Weis was not looking to add a ball-carrier in the 2014 class because of KU’s existing depth at the position. But when the third-year KU coach saw Mann’s film and watched the things he could do, Weis became convinced that going after Mann was necessary. An opportunity was all Mann was looking for, and at Kansas he seemed to find it. The opportunity has only grown in the days since he signed back in February.

Miller has left the team for personal reasons, and there are whispers that Wrench’s academic future looks murky at best. Regardless of what’s happening around him, Mann’s objective now is the same as it has been all along — to prove Weis right Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C

KU recruit not swayed by dad’s alma mater

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Most of her basketballplaying life, people assumed that Tyler Johnson would want to follow in her father’s footsteps and play her college ball at Oklahoma.

It never happened.

Johnson, a 6-foot-2 seniorto-be at Leavenworth High, orally committed to Kansas University on Wednesday and, in doing so, chose a school and program that made her the most comfortable over loyalty to the alma mater of her father, David Johnson.

“My dad wanted me to go anywhere I wanted to go and wherever I thought I’d be the most comfortable,” Johnson said. “He never pushed me to look at Oklahoma or anywhere else. He left it up to me.”

“

My dad wanted me to go anywhere I wanted to go and wherever I thought I’d be the most comfortable.”

— Leavenworth High’s Tyler Johnson, who Wednesday committed to play basketball at Kansas That’s not to say the former Sooner standout and fourth-round pick in the 1987 NBA Draft did not help his daughter along the way.

But Johnson said her father never did anything other than offer guidance, comfort and support during a stretch that got a little crazy at times.

“He knew how to talk to the coaches and how to go through the whole recruit-

ing process,” Johnson said of her father, who played at OU from 1983-87. “That helped me not get overwhelmed and really made things easier.”

An all-state forward a season ago who averaged 15.6 points per game and helped lead Leavenworth to a Class 5A state title, Johnson figures to play the power forward spot for Bonnie Henrickson’s Jayhawks. It’s something she has dreamed of for a long time and something she wanted to nail down early in the summer so she could focus on her AAU schedule and defending her state title during the next 11 months.

“KU’s been recruiting Nick Krug/Journal-World File Photo me pretty much since Day One,” said Johnson, who LEAVENWORTH HIGH’S TYLER JOHNSON, RIGHT, CHALLENGES A SHOT from Free State’s Millie Shade in this photo from Feb. 5, 2013, at FSHS.

Knicks, Lakers meet Anthony New York — The Knicks went coast to coast to let Carmelo Anthony know they want him to stay in New York.

Team officials traveled to Los Angeles on Thursday night to meet with the free agent, a person with knowledge of the plans said.

Team President Phil Jackson and general manager Steve Mills were expected to be part of the meeting.

Anthony was in Los Angeles to meet with the Lakers, who are among the teams hoping to convince the All-Star forward to leave New York. Anthony already visited Chicago, Houston and Dallas this week.

Mavs, Nowitzki agree to deal Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks have agreed on what could be the final contract for the big German.

A person with knowledge of the deal told the Associated Press that Nowitzki would get a three-year contract worth roughly $30 million. New contracts can’t be signed until next Thursday.

Kings to sign PG Collison The Sacramento Kings got some much-needed depth at point guard and a possible backup plan if they lose starter Isaiah Thomas in free agency.

The Kings and Darren Collison agreed to a three-year contract worth about $16 million Thursday, a source said.

Cleveland — Four years after their messy breakup, the Cavaliers and LeBron James are at least talking about a reunion.

Cavs officials met with James’ agent, Rich Paul, this week about the free-agent superstar’s possible return. The sides visited as James continued his family vacation, a person with knowledge of the details told the Associated Press on Thursday night.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the talks.

It was not immediately clear if owner Dan Gilbert was at the meeting.

James recently opted out of the final two years of his contract in Miami. The two-time NBA champion has gone to four straight finals with the Heat.

However, after the team was throttled by San Antonio in this year’s finals, James said he would weigh his options this summer.

One of them could be resigning with the Cavs, the team he spent seven seasons with before leaving in 2010 to join forces with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in South Florida.

James’ decision to leave Cleveland prompted Gilbert to condemn him in a scathing letter to Cavs fans. The owner also told The AP he felt James quit during games in the playoffs.

ESPN has reported that Paul also met with representatives for the Phoenix Suns, Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks.

While James has been out of the country with his wife, Savannah, and their two sons, Paul has been working on the fourtime MVP’s future. Unlike four years ago, when teams flocked to Cleveland to make presentations to woo James, the courtship of him this time has been low key and rather business-like.

The Cavs have waited patiently for their chance to try and convince the Akron, Ohio, native to come home. In the past few weeks, the Cavs have hired new coach David Blatt, selected Kansas swingman Andrew Wiggins with the No. 1 overall pick and gotten AllStar point guard Kyrie Irving to agree to a five-year, $90 million contract extension.

Canada’s Bouchard to play for Wimbledon title London — Eugenie Bouchard could have lost her focus after the fourth game of her Wimbledon semifinal Thursday, when play was delayed for five minutes during Simona Halep’s medical timeout for a left ankle injury.

Bouchard also could have gotten sidetracked when action was halted again, smack-dab in the middle of a tiebreaker, because an ill spectator was being attended to in the Centre Court stands.

And everything really could have unraveled for Bouchard later, as she let match point after match point slip away. Able to steel herself time and again, the singular-of-purpose Bouchard became Canada’s first Grand Slam finalist by beating French Open runner-up Halep 7-6 (5), 6-2 at the All England Club.

“I’m able to not worry about the distractions,” the 20-year-old Bouchard said. “What I do well is I really don’t let it get to me or affect me.”

In only her sixth major tournament, the 13thseeded Bouchard will play for the championship Saturday against 2011 Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova. The sixth-seeded Kvitova defeated No. 23 Lucie Safarova 7-6 (6), 6-1 in the first all-Czech women’s Slam semifinal.

“I know how (it feels) when you hold the trophy,” Kvitova said, “so I really want to win my second title here, and I will do everything (so) I can.”

Waiting in a hallway before walking on court, Kvitova and Safarova chatted, a pair of longtime friends who train at the same club back home. From 6-all in the tiebreaker, Kvitova won 31 of 48 points the rest of the way, using her overpowering serve and forehand that work so well on grass to improve to 6-0 against Safarova.

In a year that zero American men or women reached Wimbledon’s Round of 16 for the first time in 103 years, another Canadian, Milos Raonic, will try join Bouchard as a finalist. The men’s semifinals today are old guard vs. new guard matchups: seven-time champion Roger Federer against Raonic, and top-seeded Novak Djokovic against Grigor Dimitrov.

As of now, the 24-year-old Kvitova is the only man or woman born in the 1990s to win a Grand Slam title. If Bouchard becomes the second, she also would be the youngest major champion since Maria Sharapova was 19 at the 2006 U.S. Open.

“It’s what I’ve worked so long for,” Bouchard said, without a hint of irony.

Yes, Bouchard is clearly in a hurry — and, by the looks of her muted post-victory reaction, didn’t appear all that thrilled to get past the third-seeded Halep, who twisted her ankle in the early going and had it taped by a trainer.

“I feel like my job is not done here,” Bouchard said, “so there’s no need for a huge celebration.”

Taking the ball early while standing at the baseline, ending points quickly with flat groundstrokes, she reached the semifinals at the Australian Open and French Open this year before losing to the eventual champions.

“I totally feel like I belong,” Bouchard said.

Halep led 3-2 in the tiebreaker when chair umpire Kader Nouni noticed something was wrong with a woman in a lower-tier seat — it was the warmest day of the tournament, topping 75 degrees (24 Celsius) — and waved both players to the sideline. After a four-minute break, Halep went ahead 4-2. But on the next point, Bouchard hit a net-cord winner — “a lucky ball,” Halep called it.

Bouchard took four of the next five points, too, closing the set with a swinging forehand volley.

Bouchard’s first match point came while ahead 5-1 in the second set, and Halep serving at 15-40. A fan yelled. Bouchard tried to call time and let her guard down, allowing Halep to hit an 81 mph (131 kph) ace. Bouchard tried to persuade Nouni to let them replay the point, but he didn’t. Two more match points came and went in that game.

Then, serving for the match, Bouchard wasted two more chances to end things, before finally converting her sixth match point with a 99 mph (160 kph) service winner.

“It’s not, like, a surprise to me,” Bouchard said. “I expect good results like this.”

PRO FOOTBALL

Chiefs backup OL suspended Kansas City, Mo. — The NFL suspended Chiefs backup offensive lineman Rokevious Watkins for four games Thursday for violating its substance-abuse policy.

The league said it suspended Watkins without pay for the first four games of the 2014 regular season. He’ll be eligible to return to the Chiefs’ active roster Sept. 30, the day after Kansas City’s Monday night game against the New England Patriots.

No details of the violations were disclosed.

The league said Watkins is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games.

Watkins is in his third NFL season. He played in one game for St. Louis in 2012 and three for Kansas City last year, including one start.

St. Louis chose Watkins in the fifth round of the 2012 draft.

Fins’ Jordan banned 4 games Davie, Fla. — Dion Jordan of the Miami Dolphins has been suspended for the first four games of the season after testing positive for a stimulant prohibited under the NFL’s policy on use of performance-enhancing substances.

The Dolphins announced the suspension Thursday. In a statement released by the team, Jordan took “full responsibility” for the positive test.

Jordan was the third overall pick in the 2013 draft out of Oregon. He played in all 16 games with Miami a year ago, with 26 tackles and two sacks.

Jordan will miss games against AFC East rivals New England and Buffalo, as well as matchups with Kansas City and Oakland.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

WR Green-Beckham joins OU Norman, Okla. — Oklahoma has added Dorial Green-Beckham, the standout receiver who was dismissed by Missouri in April.

Coach Bob Stoops announced Thursday that Green-Beckham was added to the Sooners’ roster after signing a financial aid agreement Wednesday. He can immediately enroll in classes and begin team activities.

He would be eligible to play beginning in 2015.

Green-Beckham caught 59 passes for 12 touchdowns as a sophomore last season at Missouri and was one of the top prospects in the nation when he signed with the Tigers. He was dismissed after being charged in October 2012 with marijuana possession in Columbia, Missouri, and later pleading guilty to trespassing.

Stoops said in a statement that Green-Beckham “understands the privilege and responsibilities of representing the Oklahoma football program.”

Blixt begins Greenbrier defense White Sulphur Springs, W.Va. — Defending champion Jonas Blixt shot a 6-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Greenbrier Classic.

Six of Blixt’s eight birdies came on putts of 10 feet or less on the Old White TPC. The Swede also chipped in from the rough for birdie on No. 16.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland opened with a 1-under 69 and sits in a tie for 53rd place.

Stadler leads French Open Saint-Quentin-En-Yvelines, France — American Kevin Stadler shot a 7-under 64 in his French Open debut to take a one-stroke lead over Germany’s Marcel Siem.

Stadler, the Phoenix Open winner in February, had seven birdies in his bogey-free round on Le Golf National’s Albatross Course, the site of the 2018 Ryder Cup.

2009 — Serena Williams beats her big sister Venus 7-6 (3), 6-2 for her third Wimbledon title and 11th Grand Slam championship.

In the fourth all-Williams final at Wimbledon, Serena comes out on top for the third time. Later, Venus and Serena win their fourth women’s doubles title at Wimbledon and ninth Grand Slam doubles title as a pair.

WORLD CUP

Brazil suffering withdrawal Sao Paulo (ap) — The streets seem too quiet, diners and souvenir stores, empty.

For two whole days now, the globe has gone without World Cup soccer matches in this most electrifying of tournaments in decades. There were no matches on Wednesday and Thursday as teams still standing took a break before heading into today’s quarterfinal matches.

All the non-action has left some fans simply bored.

Others are using the time to do simple chores that are impossible to get done when the ball rolls in soccer-loving nations, either because they cannot tear themselves away from the TV or because entire nations like Brazil shut down due to declared holidays on game days.

“I wish every day was a game day,” said Flavio Teixeira, owner of a retail store that sells soccer jerseys and flags. Teixeira was sitting on a plastic chair waiting for customers to stop by his shop right by Sao Paulo’s Fan Fest. “Two days ago, this would have been flooded.

It’s so different.”

It’s not just the emptier restaurants and stores — it’s locals missing the vibe from the rocking Fan Fests and the sight of foreigners dressed in their country’s colors chanting in the street, in subway

“I think I can do it all,” Mann said. “If I gotta run through somebody, I’ll run through somebody. And if I gotta shake somebody, I can shake somebody. Basically, I just feel like I’m

PAULO CESAR DA SILVA, WEARING HIS BRAZILIAN SOCCER T-SHIRT WITH A WEATHERED NO. 10, the number associated with soccer star Neymar, looks out to the ocean as his son Gabriel wades along the shoreline Thursday in Fortaleza, Brazil. After two days off, the World Cup will resume today.

In Colombia, people are filling the match void by talking nonstop of that nation’s epic game with Brazil today. It’s all people discuss in restaurants and at work.

Expecting traffic chaos, Luis Garzon, who works as a private driver, said he used this twoday break to pay bills and buy groceries, all to be ready to pay total attention to today’s match.

“I went to repair my car, I paid the electric bill and went to the supermarket so I don’t have anything to do these next two weeks,” he said, referring to the mad dash

toward the final match on July 13.

In Argentina, 21-yearold law student Camila Fernandez said the Cup had come at the same time as her finals. So, naturally, some teachers changed the dates of their tests so everybody could watch their country play.

“Days without soccer are so boring,” said Fernandez. “The only good thing about not having games is I can catch up with my studies.”

Local newspapers were running tips on what to do during the two days of no games: Play with your children, go to the

movies, or, if you really cannot take the lack of soccer, simply watch the matches again.

Rio taxi driver Christian da Silva Pires said he doesn’t feel like his normal self without the Cup action. There are no matches to listen to on his radio and no passengers rushing to bars or relatives’ homes to watch games.

“I feel strange,” he said while driving his car through traffic. “We’ve gotten used to having games all the time, and lots of them are very emotional. It’s like something is missing from my heart.”

an all-around complete back.”

While his rushing (2,804 yards in two seasons) and touchdown totals (43) during his career at Hartnell provide ample support for Mann’s claim, his receiving numbers — 27 receptions in 2012 and 33 receptions in 2013 — make his argument as well-rounded as his game.

“He’s your typical running back,” Weis said last February. “But because

he’s short they say he’s small. But he’s not small.

He’s a good 200 pounds.

He’s a stocky kid with a lot of confidence. He’s not coming in here to sit behind all those other guys.

He’s coming in here to try to beat everybody out.

That’s what I really liked about this kid, other than watching how he played.”

Mann said he watched a lot of highlights of former NFL greats Barry Sanders and Walter Pay-

ton and always found himself attempting to incorporate elements of their styles into his own.

That strategy worked well enough, to this point, that it earned him the title of No. 1 juniorcollege running back in the Class of 2014, according to JCGridiron.com.

Don’t think for a second, though, that Mann is overly impressed.

“That’s just on paper,” he said of the top ranking.

“That doesn’t mean anything. You gotta put up and work on the field. It’s cool to have. And I appreciate all of the accolades and recognition, but it comes down to producing on the field and I’m ready to go to work.”

Mann is one of a dozen or so guys in the 2014 recruiting class who arrived on campus in early June. Most of the others are expected to report to KU by mid-July. While all

of them will be given the chance to compete for immediate playing time, few figure to be as ready as Mann to take advantage of the opportunity.

“I really didn’t intend to take a junior-college running back,” Weis said on signing day. “(But) I put on the tape and I watched him and I watched him and I kept on looking to shoot holes in him and there weren’t any holes to shoot.”

Simien

Big 12 trophies, that’ll be great,” Simien said, adding Alexander could develop his skills enough to be an effective scorer, much like Thomas Robinson.

Simien scored 1,593 career points at Kansas (13th all-time). He still enjoys talking basketball, but, after retiring from the pro ranks five years ago, he doesn’t have any coaching aspirations — other than helping out a team one of his kids ends up playing on.

Simien simply hopes to harness his hoops background in his religious work, which he described

as both challenging and rewarding.

“I see myself in this capacity for a long time,” he said.

BRIEFLY Firebirds make all-league soccer Two Free State High girls soccer players earned first-team All-Sunflower League recognition.

Midfielder Maddie Dieker and defenseman Olivia Hodison were placed on the first team. It’s the third straight year Dieker has picked up first team honors and the second consecutive year for Hodison.

Lawrence High goalkeeper Alex Ewy earned second-team recognition, while Free State’s Jessica Ferguson and Kaitlin Dunbar earned an honorable mention.

Kansas City, Kan. — The Lawrence Raiders youth baseball team split a pair of games on the opening day of a two-day showcase Thursday at Kansas City Kansas Community College.

The Raiders beat BTE, 6-5, in the first game before losing, 13-6, to KC Elite-1 in the nightcap.

In the win, the Raiders trailed by a run in the top of the seventh inning before Jacob Seratte hit a run-scoring triple to tie the game. Drew Green brought Seratte around the bases with a RBI double later in the frame for the eventual winning run.

Nolan Prochaska earned the win, pitching 61⁄3 innings before Ryan Cantrell earned the save.

Lawrence committed five errors in the nightcap.

The Raiders (9-15) will face KC Elite-2 at 1:30 p.m. today and tourney host KC Bullets at 3:45 p.m.

stations or on plazas or beaches.

Still, from Brazil to Argentina to Colombia, soccer fans are also taking advantage of the break.

Women headed out to the salon to get nails done and tousled hair tamed.

Others went to malls, most of which close when Brazil plays or when there is a Cup match in their city.

“I hadn’t had time to buy my 2-year-old a Brazil jersey,” said Claudio Ferreira, 43, who works as a security guard in Sao Paulo. “There is always too much going on.”

The biggest reason was her overall comfort with the program. Johnson said staying close to home was a bonus because her parents — her mother, Sally, went to KU — would be able to watch her play more eas-

ily. But the location did not mean as much as the fit.

“It was a difficult decision,” said Johnson, who chose KU over Iowa State. “But I kind of grew up a KU fan, and that was the school I felt the most comfortable with. I wanted to stay in the Big 12, and I loved the campus, I loved the coaches, and I love the girls.”

Johnson is the second Kansan in the Class of 2015 to commit her services to the Jayhawks.

American League Yankees 7, Twins 4 Minneapolis — Carlos Beltran gave the foundering Yankees a jolt with a three-run homer Thursday night, lifting Masahiro Tanaka to his majorleague-leading 12th win and helping New York end a season-worst fivegame skid with a victory over Minnesota.

Zelous Wheeler homered in his big-league debut after eight years in the minors. David Robertson notched his 19th save with a hitless ninth inning, and the Yankees started an 11-game road trip with a sigh-of-relief performance that put their record back at the .500 mark.

Phil Hughes (8-5) was rolling right along against his former team, leading 2-0 until Beltran’s big hit cleared the tall wall above right field following consecutive singles to start the fifth. Wheeler went deep two batters later.

Tanaka (12-3) allowed a season-high four runs.

Tigers 8, Rays Detroit — Max Scherzer allowed two hits in eight outstanding innings, and Detroit backed its star right-hander with three early homers in a victory over Tampa Bay. Ian Kinsler, Victor Martinez and Torii Hunter all went deep as part of a five-run first inning for the AL Central-leading Tigers, who have won 12 of 14. Tampa Bay’s fivegame winning streak is over.

Detroit leads secondplace Kansas City by five games.

Scherzer (10-3) allowed a first-inning sacrifice fly

by Evan Longoria, but that was the first of 10 straight hitters retired by the reigning American League Cy Young Award winner. After allowing a single in the fourth, Scherzer retired another 13 in a row before he was pulled with a pitch count of 106.

Phillies 5, Marlins 4 Miami — Ben Revere scored the go-ahead run when Miami second baseman Donovan Solano bobbled a grounder in the ninth, and Philadelphia rallied past the Marlins to snap a six-game losing streak.

Tony Gwynn Jr. led off the ninth with a walk and eventually scored the tying run against Miami closer Steve Cishek (4-4).

Revere scored easily when Chase Utley hit a grounder and Solano could only get the out at first.

Phillies closer Jonathan Papelbon got his 19th save in 21 chances. Jake Diekman (3-2) got the win despite a shaky eighth, giving up two runs and costing Philadelphia the lead.

Marcell Ozuna had three hits and scored twice for Miami, and Christian Yelich also had a two-hit night for the Marlins.

Diamondbacks 10, Pirates 2 Pittsburgh — David Peralta had three hits, including a two-run homer, and drove in four runs as Arizona avoided a series sweep with a victory over Pittsburgh.

Arizona scored three runs in the sixth and seven in the ninth.

The Pirates are 0-for-8 in chances to sweep opposing teams this season.

They looked primed to get their first sweep as starter Vance Worley retired the first 12 batters he faced and carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning.

Ender Inciarte broke up Worley’s no-hit bid with an RBI single with one out in the sixth. Peralta followed with his third home run of the year which barely cleared the 21-foot-high fence in right field and gave Arizona a 3-2 lead.

Together we make our community stronger As the 2014 Treasurer of the National Association of Realtors, I’ve had the privilege to travel quite a bit lately. Some of my trips were to beautiful American cities. Some were to other countries. I always come back reminded that Lawrence is an amazing place to call home. In the greatest nation ever created. And I am forever grateful to be a part of it.

Investing in real estate, exercising your private property rights, is not just good financial strategy, it strengthens the fabric of our community. We are passionate about Lawrence real estate and we love to share that passion!

We are all part of the family that is Lawrence, Douglas County, Kansas. We talk, we debate, we compete, but in the end we all want our community, our state and our country to be the best they can be.

So on behalf of everyone here at McGrew Real Estate -

Happy Independence Day and Thank You!
