Judge orders new trial in dorm rape case
AN ARTISTIC APPROACH TO LEARNING
———
Jury can’t agree on verdict for 1 of 2 former Haskell students accused of 2014 crime By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson
The criminal trial process will start over again for one of two former Haskell Indian Nations University students accused of rape, a judge declared Monday morning. After four days of testimony and several hours in the deliberation room, jurors told Douglas County District Court Judge Paula Martin they would not be able to reach a unanimous verdict in the case. Martin declared a mistrial and scheduled the suspect, age 20, for another court date — 2 p.m. on June 30 — at which his new trial will be scheduled. The suspect faces two felony counts of rape

Arts Center to begin kindergarten program By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde
After 30 years of offering preschool, the Lawrence Arts Center is enrolling its inaugural class of kindergarten students for the upcoming school year. Though the kindergarten curriculum will be based on the academic standards used by Kansas public schools, the program’s director said it will use a creative approach to teach the material. “The children will learn — we know they can, we know they will

The Sunflower Foundation announced it will award Lawrence a grant of up to $110,000 to build a section of the Lawrence Loop, a trail planned to someday circle the city. The grant will be used for a trail north and west of Rock Chalk Park. The 4,130-foot section will connect the South Lawrence Trafficway Trail with the under-construction Baldwin Creek Trail, creating 15 miles of continuous concrete
path, said Chris Tilden, community health director with the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department. The health department has advocated for completion of the Lawrence Loop — envisioned to be a total 22 miles — for the past couple of years. “This year, once the Baldwin Creek Trail is completed, this new segment at Rock Chalk Park is completed, and the SLT trail being built east of Iowa,

HAZEL LORRAINE HUNT Hazel Lorraine Hunt, formerly of Eskridge and Emporia, passed away Friday, June 17, 2016, in rural Lawrence. Hazel was born May 17, 1928, and was adopted by Clyde and Eva Penrice. She attended and graduated from Eskridge Rural High School in 1947. She was joined in marriage to Claude Hunt on December 5, 1948, in Eskridge. She was forever grateful to her parents for their loving kindness through their act of adoption. She expressed her lifelong gratitude by caring daily for her mother and other family members with unmatched commitment. Claude and Hazel moved from Eskridge to Emporia, in 1974, after selling the farm that year. They remained in Emporia until 2005, when they moved to Lawrence. After Claude’s death in 2008, Hazel lived with her son, Marvin Hunt, and his wife Cathy, in rural Lawrence. Hazel’s greatest passion in life was animals, especially cats. She doted over her cats, through the years, and advocated for responsible ownership of abandoned animals. Also, she was an avid bird watcher and jig saw puzzle fanatic. Her creativity and quick acceptance of others were

we will almost double the amount of continuous trail around the city,” Tilden said. “It will be a great recreational path. I think it will also serve as a fairly important source of transportation to link people to priority destinations.” The Lawrence City Commission voted in May to provide the 50 percent match for the grant, if it were awarded. The Parks and Recreation Department estimated the project would cost $275,000 total, and the Sunflower Foundation will reimburse the city up to $110,000. According to an announcement from the foundation, the grant amount depends on bids the city receives from contractors. The remaining amount, $55,000, will come from the Kansas Department of Transportation Federal Fund Exchange Program. To receive the grant, the city must complete the Rock Chalk Park Trail by the end of 2017. This spring, Lawrence lost out on a $600,000 grant through KDOT to complete four small segments of the Lawrence Loop. One of those segments was included in the capital improvement plan drafted by the city last month. As is, the plan allocates $75,000 in 2017 to

Hazel was preceded in death by her husband, Claude, a son, Norman Hunt, two sisters Della Penrice (infant) and Roberta Adams.

build 750 linear feet of trail from 29th Street to the Haskell Rail-Trail to the South Lawrence Trafficway Trail. Another trail project, from Lawrence Memorial Hospital to Peterson Road and North Iowa Street, is listed in the capital improvement plan as going unfunded. That project was estimated at $450,000. After the Rock Chalk Park Trail is complete, there will also be gaps between downtown Lawrence and the Warehouse Arts District, LMH to Stonegate Park and Stonegate Park to the Baldwin Creek Trail. Tilden said it’s likely the health department and city would continue to seek grant funding to finish the loop. Other parts of the loop, such as the Baldwin Creek Trail, were partly financed by grant funding. For that section, the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism will reimburse the city for $320,000 of the $400,000 project. “There are several miles to go, but I’m hopeful if we continue to work at this, at some point we’ll have a completed loop,” Tilden said. “Clearly, there’s an important link between physical activity and health, so we’re really, really happy to see a focus on — and continued development of — this trail system in the community.”

Three adults and one infant were killed in a two-vehicle collision on U.S. Highway 24 about a mile west of Perry on Sunday afternoon. At 3:20 p.m. Sunday, a Ford Ranger pickup truck and a Ford Windstar minivan collided headon, according to a report from the Kansas Highway Patrol. The driver of the Ranger, Ronald D.

According to the report, Heston’s vehicle left the roadway onto the north shoulder and overcorrected; it then traveled back across the roadway and into the eastbound lanes, striking the Windstar head-on at milepost 381.8 on US-24. Ashley Askew was not wearing a seatbelt, according to the accident report. The other two children in the Windstar — Lilly Askew, 3, and Linda J.
Askew, 5 — were in critical condition and taken to Stormont-Vail Hospital in Topeka, according to the KHP report. Jefferson County Sheriff Jeffrey Herrig said he believed one of the children was taken by helicopter and the other was transported by ground ambulance.

to testimony in the case. Prosecutor Catherine Decena argued that the incident was one of brutal betrayal. Defense attorney Sarah Swain, however, said the sexual encounter was consensual and that the woman afterward accused the suspects of rape for reasons unknown. A nurse testified that she found bruising on the woman when she came to the hospital hours after the incident. The defense questioned the lack of usable photographic evidence of the injuries and also questioned other evidence-collecting
techniques by police in the case. During closing statements Swain argued that the evidence failed to prove the suspect’s guilt. Prosecutor Mark Simpson, however, argued that the witnesses’ accounts largely matched the woman’s story, supporting the criminal charges. Jurors began deliberating the case Friday afternoon and told Martin they would be unable to reach a unanimous verdict late Monday morning.
began small, and over the years has grown to its current enrollment of about 120 students ages 2 through 5. Reimond said she imagines the kindergarten program could be a good fit for preschoolers who may not be ready for the all-day kindergarten offered by public school districts, such as 5-year-olds with summer birthdays. “Kindergarten is kind of a bridge year, and some children are not quite ready for the full day,” Reimond said, adding that she thinks a half-day kindergarten program fills a gap. “Families are looking for something different for children who maybe are still a little young.” Two certified teachers will be in charge of the class, which Reimond said will be capped at 20 students. The kindergarten program will take place from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. The monthly cost for
the program is $375, and those who meet certain income guidelines may apply for financial aid. An optional extended day program is also available until 5:30 p.m. Even though the center’s preschool and kindergarten programs only serve students until they are 6 years old, Reimond said she thinks the approach helps teach fundamental skills — such as creative thinking, problem solving and communication — that are necessary for any career they may pursue as adults. “I think those are life skills,” Reimond said. Students must be 5 years old before Aug. 31 to be eligible to enroll in the program. More information is available on the Arts Center’s website at lawrenceartscenter.org.

hen a building is entirely made of sleek glass panels, it’s pretty obvious when one of them is not like the others. So the large shattered panel on probably the most prominent wall of Kansas University’s DeBruce Center, indeed, sticks out like a sore thumb. I heard from a couple friends who visited DeBruce with family over the weekend, spotted the broken window and wondered what happened. I worked in downtown Kansas City, Mo., when The Kansas City Star’s new all-glass press plant opened, as well as the glass bowl that is the Sprint Center. Both have had multiple

windows suspected of being shot out by vandals who apparently couldn’t resist temptation. Fortunately that’s not what happened to the DeBruce Center. “It’s not vandalism, it’s not anything hitting it, it’s the building shifting and settling,” DeBruce Center
director Curtis Marsh said. While “frustrating,” he said, this is something builders indicated was a possibility, although not an expected one. Joints between the large glass panels — Marsh and I are guesstimating each panel is about 12 feet tall and 5 or 6 feet wide — are made to withstand a fair amount of shifting, he said, but apparently there was enough to push this panel beyond its limits. Marsh said the same thing has happened once before, before the building opened. As part of the contract with the builder, crews should be out to replace the pane in the next few
weeks, Marsh said. In the meantime, there are orange cones and safety tape to keep people from walking directly below it. Marsh said there’s a safety glass-like coating designed to keep the panes together but that the cones are there as an extra precautionary measure. The $21.7 million DeBruce Center, all donorfunded, opened in April at 1647 Naismith Drive, connected to Allen Fieldhouse. The building houses James Naismith’s original rules of “Basket Ball.” — This is an excerpt from Sara Shepherd’s Heard on the Hill column, which appears regularly on LJWorld.com.
Pending the results of a competency evaluation, any court proceedings regarding a 17-year-old Lawrence boy accused of killing his grandmother last December have been suspended. The boy, Jaered Long, was arrested in late December after police found his 67-year-old grandmother, Deborah Bretthauer, dead in her apartment with “obvious traumatic injuries.” Long was 16 at the time.
Both Long and Bretthauer lived in the apartment at 1200 George Court. Long faces a single count of first-degree murder in juvenile court. He pleaded not guilty to the charge. On Monday, Douglas County District Court Judge Kay Huff ordered Long to undergo a competency evaluation by Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, according to court records.

BALDWIN CITY
School board hears pitch to raise mill levy for community center By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ
The Kansas Supreme Court’s looming July 1 deadline for legislative action to resolve the state’s school finance equity issue hung over nearly every topic discussed at Monday’s Baldwin City school board meeting. The questions surrounding school funding and the Kansas Supreme Court’s possible actions should the Legislature not address its demand for equitable funding for the state’s school districts was even a consideration during the school board’s discussion on possible mill levy support for a new community center. Superintendent Paul Dorathy said no one could predict what the Legislature would do when it convenes Thursday for a special session on school funding or what the court’s response would be to any legislative action, or lack of it. Possibilities run from the optimistic — the Legislature
reinstating the old school formula it scrapped in 2015 — to the pessimistic — complete courtordered lockout of state public schools — Dorathy said. With that uncertainty and with the absence of two of its members, the board tabled until a future meeting any decision on a request to increase the Baldwin City Recreation Commission’s property tax levy by 2 mills to provide $2.5 million of the $5 million needed to construct a community center. That delay was fine with BCRC director Steve Friend, who said he wasn’t expecting a decision from the board on Monday. He said, however, direction from the board would be needed before he asked the Baldwin City Council to put a sales tax increase before voters, which would provide the other $2.5 million needed to build the community center. There was a possibility such a vote could be scheduled for November, but Friend said it could also be
scheduled as a special election. Board President Nick Harris and Dorathy informed Friend that contrary to earlier statements, the board had no authority to put a question on the proposed mill levy increase to support the community center on the ballot. That would simply take a board action to increase the BCRC’s current mill levy, they said. Because the BCRC has no taxing authority, the 4-mill levy that helps support its annual operating budget is approved through an arrangement with the district board. The only way the asked-for increase would end up before district voters was if there was a successful protest petition in response to the hike, Dorathy said. Friend, too, corrected past misstatements made during earlier community center discussions. A half-cent city sales tax increase would be needed to raise the city’s $2.5 million share of the community center’s cost, not the 0.3 cent increase
previously cited, he said. He also said earlier statements that the district’s mill levy would decrease by 7 mills when the high school bond payment dropped off in 2018-2019 was incorrect. The bond’s retirement would reduce the district’s overall mill levy by 2.5 mills, he said. Progress has been made on a possible community center design with the hiring of Clark-Huesemann Architects of Lawrence and a cost estimate review by Mar Lan Construction, Friend said. As a result, the proposed community center has been scaled back to 25,000 square feet with only a single gym. The design did retain four swimming lanes and an elevated running track, he said. Board member Ivan Huntoon wondered if that was the correct approach. He encouraged the BCRC to plan a building that would fit community needs and not be constrained by a mill levy cap of 2 mills. Friend brought with him
Topeka man pleads guilty in human trafficking case By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson
The former manager of Lawrence’s Club Magic pleaded guilty Monday to conspiring to operate a sex-trafficking business. Sean Hall, 46, of Topeka, pleaded guilty to a single count of conspiracy, admitting he worked with others to operate a prostitution business out
of Topeka, according to Tom Beall, U.S. Attorney for the District of Kansas. Hall and six others were indicted in October 2015. In 2012, Hall began working for Frank Boswell, who was a part-owner of Club Magic. The club, which is now closed, was located at 804 W. 24th St. Alongside Boswell and others, Hall transported prostitutes between
meetings with clients, the release said. He also posted advertisement pictures of prostitutes online and posted reviews of prostitutes online. As many as 20 prostitutes were working for the organization at any given time, the release said. The prostitution business spanned from Kansas to Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, Arkansas,
evidence of community support for a community center in the form of a petition with 250 signatures supporting its construction. Friend said he would learn more about a city sales tax referendum after he addresses the Baldwin City Council on July 5. He would then return to the board, seeking its support for the mill levy piece. When the board will next meet is also uncertain because of the looming court deadline. If the court shuts down school districts, the board would not meet until the issue is resolved. The board took a number of steps to pay teachers and classified employees for work they have or will have already done by the passage of a resolution allowing the use of 2015-2016 carryover funds for their compensation this month. The employees would normally have been paid in July. — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be reached at 832-7166 or ejones@ljworld.com.

City seeks more input on Parks & Rec plan By Nikki Wentling Twitter: @nikkiwentling
Lawrence released a survey to its website Monday, asking for more public input as the Parks and Recreation Department crafts its 10-year master plan. Parks and Rec started an effort this winter to create a new master plan to outline a list of projects and priorities for recreational services in Lawrence. Its current master plan is 20 years old. The city hired a
consulting firm, GreenPlay LLC, to complete the update, and it has so far held numerous focus groups and two public input sessions. Consultants are currently waiting for responses to a random, statistically valid survey mailed to 4,000 Lawrence households last week. Results from the online survey, though not statistically valid like the mailed one, will be gathered and included in a final report. In part, the survey asks what values should be
prioritized in long-term recreation planning. It also asks what types of facilities and infrastructure people care about — such as skate parks, pools, playgrounds, trails and athletic fields — and if current facilities are meeting people’s needs. It asks for opinions on new amenities suggested by people at public meetings, including an outdoor amphitheater, a roller rink, new pool, ice rink, archery range and botanical gardens.
Patel was scheduled to be sentenced in Lawrence Monday, but had not been transferred from Larned State Hospital, said defense attorney John Kerns. A previous sentencing hearing for Patel was rescheduled in May because the mental health evaluation had not yet been completed. Other court hearings have also been rescheduled for Patel, who is a native of India, because he does not speak English and has difficulty understanding court proceedings. Patel is now scheduled to appear in court at 1:30 p.m. July 8. Depending on Patel’s criminal history, he could face up to 22 years in prison. — Public safety reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at 832-7284 or cswanson@ljworld.com.
County to host public hearing on wind turbine regulations By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ
On Wednesday, the Douglas County Commission could end a two-and-a-half year internal planning effort when it considers regulations for wind power turbine towers and systems. Commissioners will consider a text amendment to county code that allows and regulates large commercial wind turbines through the county’s conditional use process. The public hearing on the text amendment will be at the 6 p.m. time slot the commission reserves for issues expected to garner public comment. The proposed text amendment addresses a gap in the county’s regulatory language, which came to light when NextEra Energy of Florida applied for a conditional use permit to install two meteorological towers to measure wind speeds in southern Douglas County. This caused considerable comment from area residents concerned about the building of

description program they worked together to incorporate into the exhibit. Bestowed by the American Council of the Blind and its Audio Description Project, the award honors outstanding contributions to the establishment or continued development of audio description programs. “No one should have to give up attending arts and culture events because they lose their sight,” said Jennifer Nigro, volunteer coordinator for Audio-Reader. Audio tours of museum exhibits are common, but
towers near their property. In response, the County Commission has approved a series of moratoriums on wind-generated energy systems since December 2013. The last, which expires July 31, was approved in April. Commissioners also asked for a staff review of wind energy, which was presented at a work session in February 2014. The text amendment before commissioners on Wednesday is a revised version of one presented in April. Like the first version, the measure establishes a two-tier approach to regulating wind generation towers. Smaller turbines generating 50 kilowatts or less for personal or small commercial on-site use would be considered through the county’s building permit process. When the amendment was first considered in April, Lawrence-Douglas County Metropolitan Planning staffer Sandra Day said many of the large tower turbine regulations, such as setback and public notification
even those are usually geared toward a seeing audience. “Celebrating Opportunity” comes with audio recordings that include not just information but also descriptions of exhibit pieces that the target audience is unable to see for themselves. Each panel of the exhibit features a QR code, which an attendee or a companion can scan using a smart phone and hear a recording of Audio-Reader volunteer Doug Washburn describing images and talking about their significance, Nigro said. Users just need to download a QR code-scanning app on their phones. “I’m pretty sure that
requirements, were borrowed from the county’s conditional use permit for communication tower regulations. Commissioners tabled the item so that staff could further flesh out language on small turbine use and to have planning staff review whether the county could expand protest petition rights for large commercial applications beyond what is required by state statute. Commissioners also expressed interest in reviewing the county’s revenue potential from large commercial wind towers. The text amendment’s original language required that public hearing notifications be mailed to all property owners in the county’s unincorporated areas within a 1-mile radius of a property on which a wind tower was proposed. However, only those living within 1,000 feet of the property would have the right to sign a protest petition challenging its approval, a move that would require all three commissioners to vote in
this is the first audio description of a museum exhibit here,” Nigro said. “Visitors who are unable to see or read standard print can still experience the visual elements.” “Celebrating Opportunity for People with Disabilities: 70 Years of Dole Leadership” remains open at the Dole Institute until July 10. Nigro said Audio-Reader plans to record and implement the same description program for another Dole Institute exhibit opening later this year. Audio-Reader provides recordings of newspapers, books and magazines to people in Kansas and parts of Missouri who are blind or have other visual or physical impairments that
favor of the application. That was one of the provisions commissioners wanted addressed, if the county had the ability to do so through home rule. “Notice without some remedy is kind of shallow,” Commissioner Jim Flory said in April. “This is a different thing than anything we’ve ever dealt with. Communication towers are a piece of cake compared to wind turbines.” The revised text amendment before commissioners retains the 1-mile notification but doesn’t expand protest rights to those property owners beyond the 1,000-foot radius. However, staff wrote in a report to commissioners that the County Commission has the authority to give protest petition rights to those living in a 1-mile radius. That would create the possibility of two separate protest petitions, both of which could force a supermajority vote, staff wrote. As for revenue possibilities, staff wrote that commercial wind towers were eligible for lifetime property tax exemptions before

2015. Therefore, counties negotiated payment in lieu of taxes arrangements with their owners. The Kansas Legislature has now changed the law and those towers approved after Jan. 1, 2017, are eligible for only a 10-year tax exemption. Staff wrote it was not yet known what effect the statute change would have on the county’s right to negotiate payment in lieu of taxes agreements with wind turbine owners. The conditional use permit would stipulate that towers be set back from adjacent property lines a distance equal to 110 percent of the tower’s height plus the length of blades and that no residential structures can be closer to towers than 1,500 feet.

Trump veep not an easy choice
EDITORIALS
Elusive consensus
By Doyle McManus Los Angeles Times
Deep divisions apparent in legislative committee meetings last week will make it difficult for legislators to reach agreement on how to respond to a court order on school finance.
A
fter two days of meetings last week, members of Kansas House and Senate Judiciary committees failed to reach any consensus on how to respond to a Kansas Supreme Court ruling that declared the state’s current school finance formula unconstitutional. Those committees obviously are not the last word on this issue, but their lack of agreement doesn’t bode well for the legislative special session that begins on Thursday. Lawmakers will come back to Topeka just a week before the court’s June 30 deadline to revise the school finance system or risk having funding cut off for K-12 schools across the state. The looming deadline may inspire a greater spirit of compromise among legislators, but deep divides that marked last week’s committee meetings show that the Legislature has a long way to go to come up with a reasonable response to the court’s order. Gov. Sam Brownback and some legislators are willing to reinstate the old finance formula, which met the court’s standard for equitably distributing school funds. That would cost the state about $38 million. However Johnson County legislators are adamant that any formula must include a “hold harmless” clause that keeps any district — including many in Johnson County — from having their funding cut. Such a clause not only would cost the state an additional $11.7 million, it would preserve funding inequities that likely would make the court reject the plan. Some legislators still were looking for ways to defy the court order. In fact, the most solid action that came out of last week’s committee meetings was a Senate Judiciary Committee recommendation that the special session include consideration of a constitutional amendment prohibiting the court from closing schools as part of school funding litigation. Such a measure probably is an unconstitutional infringement on the court’s powers, and, since it couldn’t be voted on until November, would do nothing to resolve the current funding dilemma. When Brownback set the special session for Thursday, he indicated that legislators might find it easier to coalesce around a strategy as the June 30 deadline grew closer. He and legislative leaders even expressed the hope that the special session would last just one or maybe two days. If lawmakers can agree to a plan that provides additional funding and addresses the court’s equity concerns in a day or two, that would be great, but judging from last week’s meetings, such an agreement seems a long way off.

Help wanted: Seasoned Republican politician with Washington experience. Must have high energy, conservative credentials and a strong stomach. Job requires working for mercurial boss who provokes needless crises without warning. On paper, you’ll be his deputy, but this chief executive prides himself on ignoring others’ advice. The successful candidate will roll with the punches and subordinate his/her public image to the boss’s whims. Four-year, no-exit contract; once you’re in, you’re in. Would anybody want this job? As Donald Trump’s scorched-earth style has driven his poll numbers downward, the question isn’t only whom he’ll pick as his running mate; it’s also whether leading Republicans are willing to shackle their futures to his. “If you take the job, you’re betting your reputation and your career on Donald Trump,” said Vin Weber, a former Republican congressman from Minnesota who, it must be noted, is not a fan. The presumptive nominee has “an albatross around his neck,” agreed David Winston, a longtime GOP pollster. “The share of voters who have an unfavorable opinion of Trump is higher than we’ve ever seen for a presidential candidate. That means he isn’t just vetting potential running mates; he’s going to have to recruit them.” If Trump loses the general election, his No. 2 risks collecting a share of the blame. If Trump wins, the new vice president gets to spend four years contending with a boss whose reality TV catchphrase was: “You’re fired.” Small wonder that the list of prominent Republicans who don’t want to be considered is as long as those who are signaling interest. Nominees often find their running mates among the rivals they defeated in the primaries, but Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Marco Rubio and Gov. John Kasich are all in the “not me” camp.
“
Small wonder that the list of prominent Republicans who don’t want to be considered is as long as those who are signaling interest.”
Trump has said he would like a vice president with experience in Congress, “somebody that can help me with legislation.” But some of his party’s top figures on Capitol Hill don’t appear interested, either. House Speaker Paul Ryan would be a logical candidate; he was Mitt Romney’s running mate in 2012, and he’s beloved by many conservatives. But while Ryan has formally endorsed Trump, he has repeatedly criticized the real estate mogul, slamming his criticism of a Mexican American federal judge as “the textbook definition of a racist comment.” Besides, Ryan is passionate about cutting future spending on Social Security and Medicare; Trump disagrees. That marriage isn’t going to happen. The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Sen. Bob Corker, has traveled to Trump Tower in New York to offer foreign policy advice. But if Corker was initially interested, he’s sounding less enthusiastic now. Last week, the senator said he was disappointed by Trump’s statements after the mass shooting in Orlando, Fla., in which the presumptive nominee accused U.S. Muslims of harboring terrorists and suggested that President Obama might secretly sympathize with extremists. “In an effort to be constructive, I have offered public encouragement (to Trump), but I must admit that I am personally discouraged by the results,” Corker told me. Who would take the job? Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House, has been virtually campaigning for the role. “Trump was right” about Orlando, he told conservative columnist Byron
York. “Trump has been warning again and again that this has been getting more dangerous.” Trump and Gingrich are also in broad agreement on domestic policy; like Trump, Gingrich criticized Romney and Ryan for proposing cuts to Medicare spending in 2012. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, one of the first primary candidates to endorse Trump, seems eager too — all too eager. He’s become a fixture on Trump’s campaign, to the extent that The New Yorker reported that he “has transformed himself into a sort of manservant,” delivering the candidate’s lunch from McDonald’s. (The governor’s office issued an indignant denial, at least about the lunch.) Trump has said he would consider Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, the first member of the Senate to endorse him. But Sessions has pointed out that he’d be a bad strategic choice, since the GOP shouldn’t need extra help in the Deep South. The presumptive nominee has also said he likes Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, a governor with solid conservative credentials; she has said she’s honored to be considered. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not unprecedented for politicians to decline an offer to run for vice president. It’s not even unusual. According to Joel K. Goldstein of St. Louis University, no fewer than seven Democrats turned down then-Sen. George S. McGovern in 1972, including Sens. Edward M. Kennedy and Walter F. Mondale. Kennedy went on to serve as one of the most powerful senators of modern times. Mondale served as vice president under Jimmy Carter and became the 1984 Democratic presidential nominee. So it doesn’t hurt a politician’s career to turn down the second spot on the presidential ticket. But it’s definitely not a good sign for the candidate at the top. — Doyle McManus is a columnist for the Los Angeles Times. His email address is doyle.mcmanus@latimes.com.

Weapons ban
Sad Kansan
To the editor: I know there are members of the National Rifle Association who are rational, humanitarian, reasonable and willing to work toward a solution to curb this senseless waste of life at the hands of anyone bent on destruction. I also know there are members of the NRA who are unwilling to accept any limits on their right to bear any form of destructive weapon they care to own. This idea that by outlawing one type of destructive weapon you will open the door to outlawing all types of firearms is stupid, ridiculous, selfcentered and destructive. I’m sure our legal profession is quite capable of assisting our “do-nothing legislators” in crafting legislation that would help eliminate this mass slaughter of human life while at the same time preserving sensible ownership of firearms. It is time for all reasonable, humanitarian members of the NRA to stand up and fight the rest of the NRA for way-overdue gun legislation to take mass destructive semiautomatic weapons out of the hands of citizens. They were never meant for that purpose if the first place. How many dead bodies will it take to knock some sense into some people’s heads? We’ve had enough. We’ve seen too many tears, vigils, wrecked lives and broken homes. If you “do-nothing legislators” hope to ever do anything more to advance humanity, now is the time to take immediate action to ban the sale of mass destructive weapons. Get busy. Charley Crabtree, Lawrence
To the editor: I just returned from an international conference in Puerto Rico. Seven colleagues posed some version of this question to me: “What is going on in Kansas?” I dare say no other conference attendee had such a question asked of them. It is tiring and embarrassing to hear people ask about the rejection of Medicaid funding, inadequate support for education at all levels, tax policy that favors the wealthy and undermines the Kansas economy, and harsh, mean-spirited and ugly attitudes toward the poor, toward women’s choice to care for their own health care needs, toward the judiciary (the third leg on a functioning democracy), toward LGBTQ persons, loss of funding for home health care for the elderly and disabled, and guns allowed in all public buildings, etc. Frankly, it was both humiliating and sad to be a Kansan. I have NO hope for change as long as Gov. Brownback leads the state and its legislative majority. The only positive in all of this is the certain belief that Gov. Brownback’s legacy will be so negative that he will go down in history as one of the worst governors in Kansas’ long and storied history. Small consolation, but at least it is something.

Traffic woes
To the editor: Lawrence has a traffic problem. Only two streets fully traverse the city east and west, Sixth and 23rd streets.
North to south, we also have only two crosstown streets, Iowa and Kasold. All of us who love this city tolerate this as a necessary inconvenience for having a campus of world class beauty situated in the center of our road grid. What is intolerable are the number of apparent self-imposed traffic jams. Traffic cones around street projects are often placed weeks and sometimes a month or more prior to the beginning of any actual work serving only to create more choke points on our limited crosstown streets (see south Iowa). Then there was the brilliant idea to squeeze one of the most congested portions of Ninth Street down to two lanes. and without citizen complaints, city fathers likely would have imposed this two-lane configuration on Kasold. Finally, we sure seem to have too many traffic lights, and, if they are synced, it frequently seems as though their primary goal is to ensure that all of us have to stop at the majority of the lights. I wonder how much unnecessary exhaust pollution and wasted people time results from these approaches to traffic management. OK, rant over, but I do think we can do better. Bob Augelli, Lawrence

In the midst of a tense standoff with police, Orlando nightclub gunman Omar Mateen calmly claimed credit for the massacre and identified himself as an “Islamic soldier” while calling on U.S. authorities to stop the bombing in Iraq and Syria, according to partial transcripts of the attacker’s telephone contacts with dispatchers and crisis negotiators that were released Monday. “Praise be to God, and prayers, as well as peace, be upon the prophet of God,”

Trump boots campaign manager Aide clashed with campaign officials, candidate’s kids David Jackson @djusatoday USA TODAY
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump fired Corey Lewandowski as campaign manager on Monday, seeking to recalibrate his organization after a stream of criticism about the divisive political operative who directed his presidential bid since its launch a year ago. After a number of advisers — including his children — had raised questions with Trump about Lewandowski’s aggressive style, the campaign issued a short statement early Monday saying only that he “will no longer be working with the campaign.” Trump told Fox News that Lewandowski is “a good man” and “we’ve had great success,” but “I
think it’s time now for a different kind of a campaign.” Lewandowski, who helped engineer Trump’s unprecedented run toward the Republican presidential nomination, downplayed reports of campaign infighting, saying he he was “honored” and “grateful” to have worked with the New York businessman and will continue to support his presidential bid. His strategy was to “Let Trump be Trump,” Lewandowski told MSNBC, and the presumptive nominee has “had his heart and finger on the pulse of the American people for a long time.” Trump, who has been slipping in polls in recent weeks in his race against Democrat Hillary Clinton, met with remaining aides Monday about future campaign plans amid rising Republican anxiety. “Firing your campaign manager in June is never a good sign,” Republican political consultant Kevin Madden said after the announcement.
Corey Lewandowski
GETTY IMAGES
Lewandowski, spotted at the presumptive nominee’s side during last week’s nationwide campaign tour, learned about his fate early Monday. The former campaign manager clashed with many colleagues, according to two people briefed on the dismissal who were not authorized to speak publicly, including senior adviser Paul Manafort and the candidate’s children, who supported the leadership change. Among the complaints: Lewandowski blocked some of the hires Manafort wanted to make in or-
der to beef up the campaign. The campaign manager also fought with members of the Republican National Committee who are assisting with campaign fundraising. Lewandowski’s departure is part of an effort to develop a bigger campaign team headed into the fall contest with Clinton, one that includes more officials with previous campaign experience. After news of Lewandowski’s dismissal became public, Trump aide Michael Caputo tweeted “Ding dong the witch is dead!” Caputo resigned after the tweet became public, saying in a letter to Manafort that it was “too exuberant a reaction to this personnel move.” A Florida police department investigated Lewandowski in March after a reporter from Breitbart News accused him of assault for grabbing her arm following a Trump news conference. The campaign manager was charged with simple battery, but the state declined to prosecute.
No cigar, but coffee to be first Cuban product sold in U.S. Americans can taste the forbidden this fall Alan Gomez @alangomez USA TODAY
The first iconic Cuban product to reach U.S. store shelves will be coffee. Sorry, no rum or cigars just yet. Swiss-based Nespresso announced Monday that it will sell the long-restricted beverage throughout the USA, starting this fall, the latest evidence of warmer ties between the United States MIAMI
and Cuba after five decades of estrangement. The coffee will first be sold as a limited edition, called Cafecito de Cuba, in stores, online and over the phone. Cuba’s best known products — from coffee to rum to the island’s fabled cigars — have been off limits to U.S. consumers for more than 50 years. Opportunities opened after December 2014, when President Obama and Cuban President Raúl Castro announced that the Cold War foes would begin normalizing relations. The Obama administration has since issued regulations allowing

for more trade and travel between the countries. One of the changes allowed U.S. citizens who travel to Cuba to come back with rum and cigars worth no more than $100 combined. Companies eagerly seek rights to sell those two products in the USA, but U.S. law still prohibits wholesale imports. The latest changes included an amended regulation published in April that removed coffee from the list of items barred from being imported from Cuba. Nespresso officials immediately took notice. Guillaume Le Cunff, president of Nespresso USA, said, “We want
consumers in the U.S. to experience this incredible coffee and to enjoy it now and for years to come.” Much of Cuba’s land is managed by cooperatives of small farming operations. They sell their products to the Cuban government, which either distributes the goods on the island or exports them. Nespresso will begin its Cuba experiment by buying coffee beans from European importers, roasting them, then packaging the coffee in pods for sale in the USA. Cuba’s coffee is described as having notes of cedar with a light, caramel finish.

Court rejects weapons ban cases Conn., N.Y. imposed restrictions after attack in Newtown
1 week after Orlando shooting, 4 gun measures fail in Senate Partisan provisions had not been expected to pass Donovan Slack @donovanslack USA TODAY
The Senate on Monday rejected four partisan gun measures offered in the wake of the Orlando massacre, including proposals to keep guns out of the hands of people on terror watch lists. Two Republican proposals would have increased funding for the national background check system and created a judicial review process to keep a person on a terror watch list from buying a gun; two Democratic measures would have expanded background checks to private gun sales and allowed the Justice Department to ban gun sales to suspected terrorists. The Senate voted down similar bills in December after the shooting rampage in San Bernardino, Calif. Under the current party split in the Senate, any successful bid to toughen gun laws would need bipartisan support to get to the 60-vote threshold required. There are 54 Republicans and 46 Democrats and independents who caucus with them. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., suggested Democrats are simply using the issue as a political talking point and said the two GOP measures sponsored by Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Chuck Grassley, RIowa, are “real solutions.” “No one wants a terrorist to be able to buy guns or explosives. No one,” McConnell said. “Instead of using this as an opportunity to push a partisan agenda or craft the next 30-second campaign ad, colleagues like Sen. Cornyn and Sen. Grassley are pursuing real solutions that can help keep Americans safer from the threat of terrorism.” Minority Leader Harry Reid, WASHINGTON

Shortly after the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, the Supreme Court refused Monday to hear a challenge to assault weapons bans passed in Connecticut and New York after the Newtown elementary school massacre of 2012. The challenges were denied without comment from the court. Last December — five days after a terrorist attack killed 14 people in San Bernardino, Calif. — the justices refused to hear a challenge to a Chicago suburb’s ban on such semiautomatic weapons. The Connecticut law was signed by Democratic Gov. Dannel Malloy in April 2013, four months after 20 students and six educators were gunned down at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Expanding on an earlier assault weapons ban in the state, it banned more than 100 types of firearms, along with magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition. Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a similar ban in New York that created a registry of assault weapons in the state, banned their sale and blocked the sale of high-capacity magazines. Assault weapons bans are in place in five other states: California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland and Hawaii. The federal government had such a ban for 10 years, but it expired in 2004. Ever since, Congress has defeated proposed bans, most recently in 2013. Since its landmark 2008 decision upholding the right to possess guns at home for self-defense, the Supreme Court has refused to strike down lesser state and municipal restrictions. Those include bans on carrying guns in public, requiring them to be disabled or locked when not in use, limiting ownership by those under age 21 and restricting interstate gun transfers. In March, the court said Massachusetts probably went too far in banning non-lethal stun guns. The justices did not strike down the ban, but they unanimously reversed a state court ruling upholding it and ordered a rehearing. Federal courts have ruled that statutes such as Connecticut’s and the one in Highland Park, Ill., are not at odds with the Supreme Court’s rulings in 2008 and 2010 permitting handguns to be kept at home for self-defense.

Sen. Harry Reid, shown here on June 7, called the Republican gun measures “political stunts” and said they are “meaningless in doing something to stop gun violence.”
“These are amendments to divert attention from real legislation.” Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.
D-Nev., called the GOP measures “political stunts.” “These are amendments to divert attention from real legislation,” Reid said. “Why? So Republicans (can) say, ‘Hey, look, we tried,’ and all the time, their cheerleaders, their bosses at the NRA, are cheering.” The NRA released a statement Monday night deriding the measures: “Today, the American people witnessed an embarrassing display in the United States Senate. President Obama and his allies proved they are more interested in playing politics than
addressing their failure to keep Americans safe from the threat of radical Islamic terrorism.” Democrats say the GOP is out of step with the American people on gun laws. An NBC News/Survey Monkey online poll conducted after Orlando found 61% of those surveyed supported stricter gun laws; 38% opposed them. The survey also found 60% support a ban on “assault weapons” and 38% oppose it. A Monmouth University telephone poll released Monday had a tighter margin, with 52% supporting such a ban and 43% opposing it. Omar Mateen had legally purchased a semi-automatic assault rifle and handgun before launching the rampage at Pulse nightclub in Orlando that left 49 dead and 53 injured. Ahead of the votes Monday, gun violence survivors made the rounds on Capitol Hill trying to persuade senators to vote for
Partial transcripts provide clues to shooter’s intent The FBI has released transcripts of the conversations that took place between Omar Mateen and Orlando police negotiators from inside the Pulse nightclub during the mass shooting that left 49 people dead and dozens more wounded. (OD is the Orlando Police Dispatcher. OM is suspect Omar Mateen.) OD: Emergency 911, this is being recorded. OM: In the name of God the Merciful, the beneficent (Arabic) OD: What? OM: Praise be to God, and prayers as well as peace be upon the prophet of God (Arabic). I wanna let you know, I’m in Orlando, and I did the shootings. OD: What’s your name? OM: My name is I pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State. OD: OK, What’s your name? OM: I pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi may God protect him (Arabic), on behalf of the Islamic State. OD: All right, where are you at? OM: In Orlando. OD: Where in Orlando? (End of call.) Shortly thereafter, the shooter engaged in three conversations with OPD’s Crisis Negotiation Team. 2:48 a.m.: First crisis negotiation call, lasting approximately nine minutes. 3:03 a.m.: Second crisis negotiation call, lasting approximately 16 minutes. 3:24 a.m.: Third crisis negotiation call, lasting approximately three minutes. In these calls, the shooter, who identified himself as an Islamic soldier, told the crisis negotiator to tell America to stop bombing Syria and Iraq and that is why he was “out here right now.” When the crisis negotiator asked the shooter what he had done, the shooter stated, “No, you already know what I did.”
stricter laws. The group included Erica Lafferty, daughter of Sandy Hook Elementary principal Dawn Lafferty Hochsprung who was slain in 2012, and Colin Goddard, who was shot four times and survived the mass shooting at Virginia Tech in 2007. Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., who is locked in a tough re-election battle, took to the Senate floor before the votes Monday and appealed to her colleagues to come together to find a compromise on guns. She said she has been working with fellow Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Jeff Flake of Arizona and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina on a bill that would ban gun sales to the roughly 900 Americans on the no-fly list. “Let’s put aside the gamesmanship and come together to get a proposal that will be effective and get a result for the American people,” she said.

FBI agents investigate near the rear wall of the Pulse nightclub, which law enforcement breached using explosives.
Forty-nine people were killed and dozens wounded at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. The shooter continued, stating, “There is some vehicle outside that has some bombs, just to let you know. You people are gonna get it, and I’m gonna ignite it if they try to do anything stupid.” Later in the call with the crisis negotiator, the shooter stated that he had a vest, and further described it as the kind they “used in France.” The shooter later stated, “In the next few days, you’re going to see more of this type of action going on.” The shooter hung up and multiple attempts to get in
touch with him were unsuccessful. 4:21 a.m.: OPD pulled an air-conditioning unit out of a Pulse dressing room window for victims to evacuate. (While the FBI will not be releasing transcripts of OPD communication with victims, significant information obtained from those victims allowed OPD to gain knowledge of the situation inside Pulse.) 4:29 a.m.: As victims were being rescued, they told OPD the shooter said he was going to put four vests with bombs on victims within 15 minutes. (An immediate search of the shooter’s vehicle on scene and inside Pulse ultimately revealed no vest or improvised explosive device.) 5:02 a.m.: OPD SWAT and OCSO Hazardous Device Team began to breach wall with explosive charge and armored vehicle to make entry. 5:14 a.m.: OPD radio communication stated that shots were fired. 5:15 a.m.: OPD radio communication stated that OPD engaged the suspect and that the suspect was reported down.

Mateen told a 911 dispatcher in Arabic just after 2:30 a.m. June 12. “I am in Orlando, and I did the shootings.” Mateen provided his full name during the 50-second call, then went on to pledge allegiance to the Islamic State and its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Justice Department officials initially redacted the reference to the terror group and its leader when the exchange was released Monday but changed course after a wave of criticism from GOP leaders. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., called the initial decision to edit the transcript “preposterous.” “We know the shooter was a radical Islamist extremist inspired by ISIS,” Ryan said. “We also know he intentionally targeted the LGBT community. The administration should release the full, unredacted transcript, so the public is clear-eyed about who did this and why.” Later, in a joint statement, Justice and FBI officials said they relented because the redactions had “caused unnecessary distraction” from the work of law enforcement authorities. “We also did not want to provide the killer or terrorist organizations with a publicity platform for hateful propaganda,” according to the statement. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said all decisions about the release of the transcript were made by the Justice Department. A short summary of the gunman’s communication during three calls with crisis negotiators indicated Mateen was asked what he had done inside the club, prompting an ominous warning to police. “No, you already know what I did,” he said. “There is some vehicle outside that has some bombs, just to let you know. You people are gonna get it, and I’m gonna ignite it if they try to do anything stupid.” No explosives were found in the gunman’s vehicle or in the club.

The Supreme Court ruled in Utah v. Edward Joseph Strieff Jr. that police can search someone even without suspicion.
Supreme Court’s liberals dissent in 5-3 vote Richard Wolf @richardjwolf USA TODAY
TIM SLOAN, AFP/GETTY IMAGES
“Evidence is admissible when the connection between unconstitutional police conduct and the evidence is remote or has been interrupted by some intervening circumstance.” Justice Clarence Thomas
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court divided largely along ideological lines Monday in ruling that police can seize evidence from an unconstitutional search if they first discover the suspect has one or more outstanding arrest warrants. The court’s four conservative justices, joined by Justice Stephen Breyer, ruled that even if police violate the Constitution by stopping someone without suspicion, an arrest warrant entitles them to conduct a search. In that circumstance, they said, there is no “flagrant police misconduct.”
“Evidence is admissible when the connection between unconstitutional police conduct and the evidence is remote or has been interrupted by some intervening circumstance,” Justice Clarence Thomas wrote. The vote was 5-3. The decision was controversial because in some cities thousands of people have arrest warrants pending against them, mostly for traffic violations. There were 16,000 outstanding arrest warrants in Ferguson, Mo., as of 2015, the Justice Department found during its investigation into the 2014 police shooting of an unarmed, 18-year-old African-American man. Cincinnati recently had more than 100,000 warrants pending for failure to appear in court. New York City
has 1.2 million outstanding warrants. The high court case involved a Utah narcotics detective’s detention of a man leaving a house that was under observation for possible drug dealing. Based on the discovery of an outstanding arrest warrant for a minor traffic infraction, the man was searched and found to have illegal drugs. Thomas noted that the decision does not stop the complainant, Edward Strieff, from seeking other remedies for the violation of his constitutional rights. Still, the decision elicited angry dissents from three liberal justices. Justice Sonia Sotomayor dropped the customary word “respectfully” from her final “I dissent.”

Virginia Raggi faces obstacles to reform as Eternal City struggles Eric J. Lyman
Special for USA TODAY
The Eternal City’s first female executive vowed Monday to “restore legality and transparency to the city’s institutions,” as a final election tally showed her populist campaign winning in a landslide over a candidate representing Italy’s political establishment. Virginia Raggi, 37, an outsider from an upstart political party, won on a tide of voter anger over what many view as the mainstream political system’s ties to corruption and cronyism. Official results showed Raggi won twothirds of the vote in a runoff against Roberto Giachetti. “What choice did we have?” said Renata Filiberti, 79, a retired schoolteacher. “We know the other parties are corrupt. Maybe someone new can save us.” Raggi, formally presented as Rome’s 43rd mayor, is the highest-ranking official elected from the Five Star political movement created seven years ago by comeROME

Mayor Virginia Raggi comes out of the anti-establishment Five Star movement, winning two-thirds of the runoff vote.
dian-turned-activist Beppe Grillo. Raggi, an attorney, inherits a bloated city government with outdated infrastructure, inefficient services and $17 billion in debts. Romans have long complained about the poor state of historical monuments, deteriorating roads, unreliable public transport and infrequent trash collection. Raggi’s victory is the latest example of Europeans rejecting establishment politicians for new
faces, often on the far left or right, in the face of severe economic discontent and concerns about a flood of migrants from the Middle East and North Africa. The Five Star movement, which also won the mayor’s race in Turin, Italy’s fourth-largest city, has emerged as a major opposition party to Prime Minister Matteo Renzi’s political allies, who held onto power in mayoral races in Milan and Bologna. “The Five Star movement has up until now been a rejectionist movement,” said Franco Pavoncello, president of Rome’s John Cabot University. “Now they have to prove they can govern. In Rome, that is never easy.” Grillo, 67, was at Raggi’s side to celebrate her victory. In 2013, Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine called him “the most dangerous man in Europe” because of his populist rhetoric. Now he is guaranteed to have a hand in how the city is governed. During the campaign, Raggi signed an agreement promising to confer with Grillo and other party leaders on major decisions. Raggi’s victory could hurt Rome’s chances of hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics since she has said a bid was “costly, wasteful and unnecessary.”
Heat wave bakes Southwest region Record-breaking temps set in Arizona, likely in other states Doyle Rice
@usatodayweather USA TODAY
A deadly heat wave continued to scorch the Southwest on Monday with more record highs likely in Arizona, Nevada, Utah and California. Heat warnings were in effect Monday in parts of the four states. Record-breaking heat across Arizona shattered records Sun-
day and claimed at least four lives on trails in and around Phoenix and Tucson over the weekend, the Arizona Republic reported. Weather forecasters predicted little relief Monday, especially in western Arizona. Temperatures in Phoenix, Flagstaff, Tucson and Yuma broke daily records Sunday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. Phoenix reached 118 degrees, Tucson hit 115 degrees, while in Flagstaff temperatures hit 93 degrees and Yuma soared to 120 degrees, the fourth-hottest day on record. In California on Sunday, temperatures climbed to 113 degrees in San Bernardino, with Burbank
at 109 degrees. Indio was 120 degrees on Sunday, WeatherBug reported. Death Valley should hit 124 degrees Monday afternoon, the National Weather Service said, which still is 10 degrees below its all-time (and world-record) high of 134 degrees. Widespread triple-digit high temperatures are expected Monday in the Los Angeles area, with potential record-breaking heat, the weather service reported. The high-pressure area responsible for the intense heat will begin to retreat into the southern Plains by midweek, allowing the heat wave to loosen its grip, according to WeatherBug.

MONEYLINE EX-CEO OF VOLKSWAGEN FACES PROBE IN GERMANY German prosecutors are investigating whether former Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn violated securities laws in connection with the automaker’s emissions scandal. Winterkorn and another unidentified former VW executive are the targets of a probe into whether the German automaker promptly notified investors about its potential liability due to its emissions scandal. Winterkorn resigned days after the crisis erupted in September, when the company admitted that it had rigged some 11 million diesel cars worldwide to cheat emissions regulations.

The odds on British voters choosing to leave Europe in Thursday’s referendum were always fairly long but have gotten longer after last week’s assassination of a pro-European Union member of Parliament. Even Nigel Farage, head of the U.K. Independence Party and a leading advocate of Britain exiting the EU, conceded that the killing of Labor Party lawmaker Jo Cox apparently by an anti-immigrant fanatic has probably stopped whatever momentum the “leave” proponents had. “We did have momentum until this terrible tragedy,” Farage told British television over the weekend. “When you are taking on the establishment, you need to have momentum.” It was far from certain even before the shocking assassination in northern England last Thursday that the “leave” campaign would actually persuade voters to make the leap into the dark that “Brexit,” as it is known, would entail. In a similar situation two years ago, Scottish voters backed off of a split with England as a referendum on independence lost by more than 10 points. Betting odds for the current referendum had shortened in recent weeks but still gave the “remain” camp a 60% chance of winning. This week they swung back to well over 70%. Polls had emerged giving the “leave” camp a slight edge among those with an opinion but still left a large pool — 10% or more — as undecided, and these were likelier to break for “remain.” New polls in the wake of Cox’s murder have “remain” voters on top again. In any case, British polls have been notoriously unreliable in recent years, calling the Scottish independence vote a dead heat when in fact the “No” to independence prevailed with a comfortable margin. Ultimately, for all the noise about independence and recovering sovereignty, British voters have few compelling reasons to
leave the EU, aside from the vexed issue of immigration. The debate over Brexit, however, has clarified the choice for those who want Britain to enjoy the trade and other economic benefits of the EU — namely, that London should stay and show more forceful leadership in fixing the problems in the EU, starting with immigration. A defeat of the Brexit referendum could give Prime Minister David Cameron greater leverage in exercising that leadership. For one thing, “leave” supporters have already begun talking about a new referendum if this one fails, and Cameron can use that threat for wresting further changes from Brussels. Even if the “leave” vote falls short, the Brexit debate and the fact that a substantial minority of British voters think the country would be better off on its own has changed the dynamic in the EU. Britain, and perhaps a number of other European countries, no longer accept — if they ever did — the goals of full-fledged political and economic integration in a European superstate that is implied in the EU treaties.
“We did have momentum until this terrible tragedy.” Nigel Farage, head of the U.K. Independence Party, on the murder of Labor Party lawmaker Jo Cox
At the very least, there is likely to be an evolution toward a twospeed Europe, with those countries that choose to remain in the euro proceeding toward greater integration and other countries receding back to a looser affiliation with a common market. The principle of subsidiarity — making rules and laws at the level closest to the people — could be restored after essentially being abandoned in the quest for an “ever closer union” that required more decisions to be made in Brussels. In short, win or lose, the Brexit referendum has already changed the trajectory of Europe’s future, putting an end to the idea of a United States of Europe. Brexit may fail, but the changes sought by its supporters may well prevail.

Stocks jumped Monday on Wall Street, building on a massive rally that began abroad, as investors reacted to fresh polls that show the “remain” camp is gaining momentum in the “Brexit” vote, a shift in sentiment that boosts odds and raised hopes that Britain will stay in the European Union. The Dow Jones industrial average, which had been up 271 points early, closed up 130 points, or 0.7%, at 17,805. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index gained 0.6%, and the Nasdaq composite added 0.8%. The new polls have boosted investment sentiment, which is shifting away from the risk aversion that marked last week’s trading, when investors fearing a UK vote this Thursday to leave the EU sold assets that would be hurt most by the uncertainty and economic downside of a Brexit, such as stocks, commodities and the British pound and banks. But fresh poll results released this weekend that show voters that want to stay in the EU are gaining momentum and edging into the lead has raised hopes among investors that a Brexit is less likely. Two polls conducted for the Mail on Sunday said 45% of the respondents wanted to stay in the 28-member EU and 42% wanted to leave. A Sunday

Times survey conducted Thursday and Friday said 44% wanted to remain and 43% wanted to leave. “Brexit momentum is turning to ‘stay’ in the final days of the campaign,” and that is prompting investors to reverse the bearish bets they had put in place last week when risks of a Brexit were higher, Daniel Clifton, an analyst at Strategas Research Partners who specializes in politics and policy, told clients. Markets are rallying on the hopes that a Brexit won’t happen. In Europe, the FTSE 100 index in London soared 3%, wiping out its 1.5% drop from last week.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
When Janet Yellen, the Federal Reserve chair, faces off with members of Congress on Tuesday, the surprise factor might be lacking. Then again, maybe not. Yellen’s semi-annual testimony could be a snoozer. Why? Yellen had a wide-ranging question-andanswer session last week with reporters after the Fed’s two-day meeting broke up. That give-andtake made clear that not only was the Fed holding off on raising interest rates in June, but it was also dialing back the number of rate hikes in 2017 and 2018 amid a recognition that the U.S. economy is likely to maintain its slow 2% growth rate through 2018. With that kind of surprisingly dovish lead-in, it will be tougher
Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:
for Yellen to shock anew Tuesday at 10 a.m. ET, when her prepared testimony is released and Q&A with Senate members gets underway, argues Steven Ricchiuto, chief economist at MSUSA. “The close proximity of (last week’s) policy meeting and (Tuesday’s) testimony further reduces the chances of anything unexpected or undisclosed,” Ricchiuto said in a report. But there is a way Yellen can roil markets: if her testimony diverges from comments last week, when she suggested the Fed’s approach to raising rates might be even more gradual than initially believed. “Even a modest bit of back-pedaling,” Ricchiuto wrote, “will result in an outsized market response.” Congress will also press Yellen on how a vote by Britain to leave the European Union might impact Fed policy and the economy.

New dividends not common, but do your research Q: How can I find new sources of dividends? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: Dividend-paying stocks are among the biggest winners on Wall Street. But some investors want to find the next big dividend payers, rather than piling into the same dividend-paying companies everyone knows about. A simple online search, limited to the past few months, on the term “dividend initiation” likely will generate news on companies that recently have started paying increased dividends. Dividend.com also offers a Dividend Payout Changes feature that allows you to search each day to see which companies altered dividends. Make sure you select the “Initiations” checkbox to show just new dividend payments. Just know new dividends aren’t all that common. So far this year, just 10 companies in the broad Russell 3000 index have begun paying their first dividends, including insurer Navigators Group, online jeweler Blue Nile and tech firm Cabot Microelectronics, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. It’s important to note that not only are new dividends somewhat uncommon, they don’t tend to be large at first. Navigators, for instance, yields just 0.4%, which is well below the Standard & Poor’s 500 average of a roughly 2% yield.
Autoworkers remain on job to meet SUV, truck demand Greg Gardner
Detroit Free Press DETROIT Tens of thousands of U.S. autoworkers will be staying on the job next month instead of having the usual summer shutdown, as demand for pickups, large SUVs and crossovers shows little sign of abating. “We are working straight through July and currently we have five Saturdays scheduled through the summer,” said Brian Hartman, president of United Auto Workers Local 2209, which represents about 4,000 workers
GENERAL MOTORS
General Motors plants, like this one in Wentzville, Mo., are reducing the usual summer shutdown period.
at the GM Truck plant in Fort Wayne, Ind. “We have the capacity to produce 505 trucks per day, and we’re right at the brink of that most days.” For years, General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler pushed and eventually persuaded the UAW to have its members all take vacation during the first two weeks of July. The companies could save on utilities, shrink inventories and employ a small crew of skilled trades workers to install new tooling for the next model year. That’s back when GM and Ford each had four or more U.S. assembly plants churning out
large pickups. Now they have half as many, if that. In the big picture, this is good news. Both management and the UAW benefit because bonuses and profit-sharing, although not paid until next year, are tied to profitability in North America. In the near-term, however, there’s not a big income gain. The UAW has agreed to more flexible work schedules. Three shifts, which most of the pickup and SUV plants are running, enable production. around-the-clock That also minimizes overtime for individual workers, although Saturday work can earn the overtime
premium in some cases. Under UAW contracts, workers are able to take their allotted vacation weeks at other times of the year, and those able to take one or two weeks in July will be paid. Also, Fiat Chrysler will run the Jefferson North assembly plant through the month to get more Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs to dealers. At Ford, four assembly plants, including two in Louisville, one in Chicago and one in Oakville, Ontario, in Canada will be idle the week of July 4 for building maintenance and retooling, but will be producing the week of July 11.

Tavis Smiley’s tale explores the star’s life, death and ‘humanity’ Jocelyn McClurg @jocelynmcclurg USA TODAY

GOOD DAY SAMUEL L. JACKSON The actor will be honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at Sunday’s BET Awards (BET, GETTY IMAGES 8 ET/PT). BAD DAY ‘PENNY DREADFUL’ FANS Sunday’s Season 3 finale will be the series finale. The Showtime series starring Eva Green and Josh Hartnett will not return for a fourth season.
JONATHAN HESSION, SHOWTIME
THEY SAID WHAT? THE STARS’ BEST QUOTES “I’m here to tell you that my butt is not dangerous. And there are many, many more dangerous things that people are happy to broadcast. I don’t know what that says about the world we live in, but it probably says something.” — Tom Hiddleston to ‘W’ magazine on his bum being censored in a scene from ‘The Night Manager’ MIKE MARSLAND, WIREIMAGE
Tavis Smiley had his plane ticket and hotel reservation and was thrilled that he was going to see Michael Jackson’s comeback performance at London’s O2 Arena in July 2009. Smiley, a Jackson fan since childhood, had never before asked a favor of “Miss Katherine,” Jackson’s mother, with whom he was friendly. But the PBS talk show host simply had to see the singer’s final This Is It concert series. Mrs. Jackson said she’d make certain he got good seats. Then, as Smiley writes in his new book, “came June 25.” “It hit me so hard,” Smiley says by phone from Los Angeles, describing how he felt when he heard of Jackson’s shocking death at age 50. “I was just undone. It came out of nowhere.” He wanted to understand how it happened, to literally “get inside Jackson’s head.” And that’s what he and coauthor David Ritz attempt in Before You Judge Me: The Triumph and Tragedy of Michael Jackson’s Last Days (Little, Brown), which arrives just days before the seventh anniversary of the superstar’s death. The non-fiction book takes a novelistic approach, speculating on how Jackson feels, what he’s thinking, and most pointedly, how he cannot sleep in the 16 weeks leading up to his death. “Sometimes we lose sight of people’s humanity,” says Smiley, 51. While the book makes clear that Jackson suffered “any number of self-inflicted wounds,” Smiley says he hopes “it allows us to see him through a different prism, allows us to revel not just his artistic genius but in his humanity.” The co-authors interviewed people close to Jackson such as Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy and Janet Jackson, and called on trial transcripts and other documents, including the case against Jackson’s personal physician, Conrad Murray.

acute intoxication from propofol, an anesthetic. Another new book also publishing Tuesday — 83 Minutes: The Doctor, the Damage, and the Shocking Death of Michael Jackson by Matt Richards and Mark Langthorne — closely examines the case.) Smiley, who wrote a remem-
brance for USA TODAY after his friend Prince’s untimely death, says Gordy said it best in trying to understand why some celebrities succumb to drugs: “Berry said to me, ‘There are moments in the lives of certain iconic figures where, if they’re not careful, they become rudderless.’ ” Jackson was dealing with many pressures in the final months of his life as he agreed to increase the number of London shows from 10 to 50. Smiley says he ended up wondering “how Jackson survived as long as he did. In the last 16 weeks of his life, he’s self-medicating, he’s changing managers
like he’s changing underwear, his father is on his case to do a reunion tour with his brothers, he’s got creditors coming at him.” Smiley, author of numerous books, remains a dedicated fan of Jackson’s music and artistry. He says he has often wondered what that London show would have been like. “I like to think he would have put on a great opening night,” says Smiley, who believes there would have been cancellations in the concert series. “How long he could have sustained that, I do not know. Not with the condition he was in.” Smiley is joining producer J.J. Abrams to develop Before You Judge Me into an “event television series” for Warner Bros. Television.

Rather than Let It Go, Disney is making its Frozen franchise snow. The Mouse House has announced an extension of the brand called Frozen Northern Lights, featuring books, animated shorts and a TV special. It’s no surprise that Disney is capitalizing on the animated movie’s success: After all, the film raked in $1.2 billion globally, won two Academy Awards in 2014 (best animated feature and original song), sold 4.1 million soundtracks and is headed to Broadway in 2018. Frozen Northern Lights is “a brand-new original story and it’s going to feature all of the Frozen fan favorites,” says Andrew Sugerman, executive vice president of Disney Publishing Worldwide. The idea, he says, began as “a partnership with the original filmmakers taking some of the rich storytelling that was in
DISNEY
Frozen Northern Lights will include four animated shorts from the Lego Group, along with books and a TV special. the film and finding a way to bring a new story to life that lived within the overarching Frozen franchise.” The bonanza will launch July 5 with a 224-page book, Journey to the Lights by Suzanne Francis, to be published by Random House. Nine more books are planned
through the end of 2017, and the first kicks off with beloved original characters Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven — plus a new protagonist named Little Rock — as the gang aims to restore the glimmer of the Northern Lights. This November, Frozen Northern Lights will get the Lego treatment with four new animated
shorts from the Lego Group, airing on the Disney Channel. They’ll feature the film’s original voices, including Kristen Bell (Anna), Idina Menzel (Elsa), Jonathan Groff (Kristoff ) and Josh Gad (as the snowman Olaf ). A TV special presenting the shorts will also air on the Disney Channel around Thanksgiving. Why Lego-ize Elsa and friends? Their wit and humor fit, says Sugerman. “We thought it was a unique take on the storyline through their eyes,” he says Social media is getting in on frigid fun, too: Disney will soon launch the Instagram account @DisneyFrozen. This isn’t the first time that Disney has added fresh powder to Frozen since the film’s release in 2013. Last year, the seven-minute Frozen Fever short was released in theaters in front of Disney’s live-action Cinderella starring Lily James and Cate Blanchett. (In that tale, Elsa decided to throw her sister Anna a birthday bash, only to be derailed by a cold.) “It really comes down to quality of storytelling,” says Sugerman. “If we can create great stories that stand on their own and take these characters deeper into the world, then everything will evolve from there. With Northern Lights, we feel like we did exactly that.”

SUMMER SAFETY FOCUS
THE ULTIMATE FIRST-AID KIT FOR PARENTS By Mackenzie Clark Twitter: @mclark_ljw
E
ven when parents are taking precautions against heat and proper measures to prevent sunburns, kids are bound to end up with injuries and illnesses over the summer. John Drees, safety educator and registered nurse with Lawrence Memorial Hospital, said whether it’s falls at the pool, scrapes from playing around the dock at the lake or bee stings, those “boo-boos” are going to increase along with summer activity. “Being outside, we tend to engage more with the physical environment, and there’s more possibility for injury,” he said. Drees and Dr. Lee Norman, family practitioner by trade and chief medical officer
at Kansas University Hospital, offered some practical tips for parents: what supplies to have where, and when to seek help.
What you need, and where Parents will likely need different supplies on hand whether they’re at home or on the go — they’re not all interchangeable.
In the home Firstly, Norman said a thermometer is key — newer ones that read the temperature from the temporal artery in the forehead work well. If someone gets sick, one of the first things a medical professional will ask is whether they have a fever. “I’m just amazed when I talk to parents, for example, how
many times they don’t have a thermometer,” he said. Secondly, he said if a kid does have a fever and isn’t dehydrated, he would usually recommend lowering the fever with Tylenol — and he suggested keeping a dosage chart in the medicine cabinet along with a device to measure the right dose depending on the size of the child. “Believe it or not we see people come to the emergency department because it may be a fever, they don’t know, and they don’t have any Tylenol at home,” he said. He also said multisymptom cold medications are “kind of handy.” Next, he recommends a cream to take care of simple skin rashes, such as a hydrocortisone cream, and diaper rash cream for babies. He
also suggests a topical antibiotic, such as Neosporin or bacitracin, to put on any skin injuries that could become infected. Norman said the little blue suction bulbs come in handy for babies, as well. “Sometimes babies get colds and they get fussy. Their nasal passages are blocked up,” he said. “It’s easy to put a drop of saline in their nose and just suck the gunk out of their nose with a nasal aspirator.” He also suggests keeping a pair of tweezers handy, particularly for splinters. A squirt bottle of eyewash can also be helpful in case of a splash of chemicals or anything getting in the eyes. Drees and Norman agree pre-packaged first-aid kits — Drees cites Johnson & Johnson as one company
that packages them — can be very helpful. Simple things such as wound dressings, antibiotic ointment, gauze pads, tape and bandages are good to have at home. Along the same lines, Norman said, tongue depressors can be taped up and used as splints if a kiddo jams a finger. Finally, even if kids won’t eat their vegetables, they could still help their health — Norman said a bag of frozen corn or peas will work as a makeshift ice pack. There are also gel ice packs available in stores. It’s best to get something that will bend to contour the area of a bump or bruise that’s starting to swell, Norman said, and to wrap those in a dish towel and alternate holding them on Please see KIT, page 2C

Bert Nash Summer Program takes ‘holistic approach’ By Jeff Burkhead Special to the Journal-World
School’s out, and that means it’s time for the Bert Nash Summer Program. The program, called Healthy Bodies Healthy Minds, runs through July 28 and will involve about 75 kids. “We have a lot of kids this year,” said Rhonda Stubbs, who oversees the program and leads the group for elementaryage kids. There are also groups for middle school and high school youth. The groups meet three days a week. “The goal of the summer program is to provide positive interactions with other kids in the community,” Stubbs said. “We teach them

THE BERT NASH SUMMER PROGRAM includes lots of outdoor time and group activities. social skills, interpersonal skills, coping skills. We encourage healthy daily living and finding ways to manage symptoms in a positive environment.” Frances Rico leads the two groups for older kids.
“The summer program targets a holistic approach to being mentally and physically healthy,” Rico said. “We provide the integration of physical activity, nutritional education and life-skills training.”
Kids in the elementary group are referred for the summer program by their therapists. Middle school and high school kids are also referred by a therapist or by a WRAP worker. WRAP (Working to Recognize Alternative Possibilities) is a Bert Nash program that places a clinician in the school. Thanks to a grant from the Outside for a Better Inside organization, which focuses on the therapeutic benefits of being outdoors, the summer program was able to purchase outdoor equipment for the kids to use. The WRAP program also recently received funding from the Shumaker Family Foundation and the Lawrence Breakfast Optimist Club.
“We’re going to be using the Sandra Shaw Community Health Park a lot this summer,” Stubbs said of the city park, located just north of the Bert Nash Center and named for the Center’s former CEO. “I always love to see the growth of the children and how they interact together,” Stubbs said. “When they are able to do a skill without prompting … that’s that ah-ha moment when you know they got it. We had a kid last year who had trouble with anger and one day when he was upset he started using his breathing skills. He was like, Miss Rhonda, I did it, I did it. Just being able to have the kids feel good about themselves, you always love to see that.”
How’s your bone health? By Aynsley Anderson Sosinski Lawrence Memorial Hospital
The National Osteoporosis Foundation estimates that 54 million people in the United States have either the disease osteoporosis or low bone mass, also known as osteopenia, which if left untreated could go on to become osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a debilitating disease leading to fragile bones that can easily fracture. The bones most commonly affected are those of the spine, hip and wrist. In someone with significant osteoporosis, even a mild stress such as a sneeze can potentially cause a bone fracture. Osteopenia and osteoporosis and what you can do to prevent these conditions will be the topic of a free Wellness Friday presentation at 9:30 a.m. July 8 at the Lawrence Memorial Hospital Performance and Wellness Center at Sports Pavilion Lawrence, 100 Rock Chalk Lane. No advance registration is needed; just drop by to learn more. About 85 percent of our bone mass is formed by age 18 to 20, but some continuation of thickening and widening occurs until late 20s or early 30s. Lifetime peak bone density is thought to be reached at about age 30. It is key that parents encourage the building of a strong bone density platform in their children and adolescents, since little bone density growth occurs after the late teens. Studies show that many girls and young women consume less than half the recommended daily amount of calcium, one of the keys to building strpmg bones. The higher the peak bone mass built in early life, the more bone density one has in the bank for “down the road,” when with aging, some bone loss inevitably occurs. Unless steps are taken to minimize this bone loss, women recently post-menopausal are especially at risk. This is due to decreased estrogen production, as that hormone is thought to be bone density protective. Other risk factors for osteoporosis include: Caucasian or Asian race; a slender or smaller frame; a family history of osteoporosis particularly in a parent or sibling; smoking; history of disordered eating; taking certain medications, typically for long periods; some cancer and other medical treatments; a low calcium intake, particularly in Please see BONE, page 2C

Norman also suggested putting a kid in a bathtub of warm, soapy water to let the wound soak, and gently brushing it with a washcloth. “A warm, moist washrag on it actually feels kind of good and cleans it at the same time, and you can get the kid’s confidence when you do that,” Norman said. A cut may need stitches if you can see down into it, or if you can see any other kinds of tissues in the wound, Norman said. Squirting of blood is also a pretty sure bet. Drees said you may also consider stitches if the cut is on part of the body that will move a lot and could be repeatedly opened “If in doubt, you’re probably going to fall on the side of going ahead and at least checking with your personal physician, or if you don’t have that ability, going to the emergency room

Once bones have weakened, signs or symptoms that may occur include back pain, loss of height that sometimes leading to the characteristic “dowager’s hump” and fractures. Osteoporosis can affect both men and women, with women being more affected. It is thought that one-half of women and one-quarter of men over 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetimes. With increasing age, recovery from a bone fracture can take longer and many never recover,
BRIEFLY Kansas offers free help to smokers Smokers in Kansas can get free medications, such as Nicotine Replacement Therapy products in the form of gum, lozenges or patches, from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) Tobacco Quitline from now until July 1, or while supplies last. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Tips From Former Smokers national tobacco education campaign will encourage smokers to call the Kansas Tobacco Quitline at 1-800-QUIT-NOW for free help getting medication and quit assistance. To take advantage of the free offer, tobacco users must enroll in the Quitline with a trained coach and be medically eligible to receive the free medication. “We want all tobacco users to know that although quitting is hard, they can do it,” said Jennifer Church, community health promotion section director for KDHE. The KDHE states that nearly 70 percent of all cigarette smokers want to quit, and research shows quitting at any age has significant health benefits, such as a lower risk for lung cancer and reduced risk for heart disease and stroke. Smoking is the leading preventable cause of disease and death in the United States and Kansas, killing nearly half a million Americans each year. For more information on quitting, visit ksquit.org.

or if they do, cannot live independently again. Steps to better bone health The National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends these steps for bone health and osteoporosis prevention. 1. Get the recommended daily amount of calcium and vitamin D for age and gender. Vitamin D helps calcium absorb into the bone and is available through sun exposure, fortified foods and beverages or a supplement. 2. Engage in regular weight bearing, strength training, and balance activities and exercises. Balance exercises such as tai chi, can help prevent falls and thus bone fractures. LMH Therapy Services offers four levels of Tai Chi for Balance classes at the LMH Performance and Wellness Center. Call 785-505-5840 for more information. 3. Avoid smoking or using excessive alcohol.
4. Have a conversation with your health care provider about bone health and what measures you personally should take to prevent or treat osteopenia or osteoporosis. 5. Have a bone density test as recommended by your health care provider and take any supplements or medications prescribed to prevent or treat the disease. Lawrence Memorial Hospital offers two types of testing for osteoporosis and its risk. A bone mineral density test, often called a DXA scan, can detect whether an individual has osteopenia or osteoporosis, and also predict the risk of having a bone fracture. This testing, which requires a physician referral, is the gold standard diagnostic test for osteoporosis. Talk with your health care provider as to whether and when this test might be advised for you. Also investigate from your

or urgent care, whatever it might be, but you may need to get that wound closed,” Drees said. If a cut may need stitches, it’s best to go as soon as possible, particularly if it’s on the face, Norman said. l Burns: First, get the burning substance off, Norman said. Run it under cold water right away to drop the temperature back to normal. “No, you don’t need to put butter on them. No, you don’t need to put ice on them,” he said. “A cool compress works very well, and then if it’s one that doesn’t need to be seen by a doctor, then just put some antibacterial ointment on it, and just a loose gauze dressing over the top.” He said with burns, doctors will look at the degree. A reddish burn with no blisters, such as a sunburn, is a first-degree burn; second-degree burns start to blister and will probably need to be seen by a medical provider. Third-degree burns are “obviously charred, badlooking things and need to be seen right away. Those are emergency conditions,” Norman said. l Stings: For most
people, bee and wasp stings aren’t a huge deal, Norman said. He suggests using a toothpick to flick off the stinger if it’s left in the skin, rather than trying to pinch it with tweezers or your fingers because there could still be a venom sac in it. Once the stinger is gone, put some ice on the site and wash it well. Ice will slow the spread of the venom, Norman said, and once again, hydrocortisone cream can come to the rescue. Benadryl can also help with itching, he said. A very small percentage of people have allergic reactions to stings and their airways may start to close up. In this case, call for an ambulance immediately. l Bumps and bruises: Not a whole lot can be done, but an ice pack, as mentioned above, can help. Broken bones, on the other hand, are a different story. Obvious fractures or bony deformities probably need to be seen by a doctor right away, Norman said. — WellCommons reporter Mackenzie Clark can be reached at 832-7198 or mclark@ljworld.com.

Oprah returns to OWN Oprah’s back! Or is she? Winfrey’s part in the new melodrama “Greenleaf” (9 p.m., OWN, TV-14) marks her first appearance in a recurring television role in more than two decades. Set among a preaching family and their Memphis megachurch, “Greenleaf” has just about everything you want in a prime-time soap opera. Family secrets, greed, adultery, backstabbing, hypocrisy, investigations and power plays abound. The sparks begin to fly with the return of Grace “Gigi” Greenleaf (Merle Dandridge), who left the family and its “business” to become a successful reporter in Arizona. After 20 years, she’s back with a daughter of her own and a journalist’s training, affording her an interesting vantage point on her parents and pillars of the community, Bishop James (Keith David) and Lady Mae (Lynn Whitfield). Winfrey plays Mavis, Grace’s aunt, another family member on the outs, who offers her niece a welcoming ear. Imagine, a character played by Oprah Winfrey dispensing advice! “Greenleaf” is also departure for OWN in being the first scripted series on the network not associated with Tyler Perry. As welcome as that sounds, the dialogue on the show is too consistently exalted to be taken entirely seriously. Winfrey and her brand have always alternated between entertainment and uplift, guilty pleasure and noble edification. It’s easy to forget that she began her public career in the thick of the tabloid TV era, battling for ratings and sleazy guests with the likes of Geraldo Rivera. Since departing her syndicated daytime talk show perch, it seems Winfrey has misplaced her golden touch, or forgotten that people used to watch her show for fun, gossip and celebrity, as well as book club recommendations. Winfrey has even discussed “Greenleaf,” and its promotion in terms of her overall “mission.” Perhaps the fictional characters on this show are not the only ones engaged in a ministry.

Golfer Thompson rolling to Wichita As Twitter was blowing up with some of the world’s greatest golfers mocking the USGA for messing with Dustin Johnson’s head for telling him in the middle of his final round Sunday that he might be assessed a one-stroke penalty after he finished, another professional golfer who had a good week was behind the wheel of his car, making his way from Nashville back to Lawrence. Until this past week, this had been the summer of near misses for Chris Thompson. He missed making it out of a local U.S. Open qualifier by a stroke, missed qualifying for the Byron Nelson by a stroke and had a number of other close calls that went the wrong way, including a shot at what would have been his first sub-60 round when he broke his own Lawrence Country Club course record with a 60. Thompson left nothing to chance at the qualifier for the Nashville Golf Open, a Web.com Tour (one step below the PGA) event. He fired a 9-under 63 to qualify, made the cut in his first Web.com tournament of 2016. Not only that, he finished tied for 23rd, a big number because the first 25 finishers automatically qualify for the next tournament on the Web. com tour. So after not qualifying for any Web.com events, he will play in two in a row. A two-time All-American at Kansas University, Thompson, who turns 40 on July 11, will be in the field at the Air Capital Classic at Crestview Country Club in Wichita. He returned to Lawrence past midnight Sunday, did some laundry, went to his son’s baseball game Monday night and planned to drive this morning to Wichita to get in a practice round at Crestview for the four-day tournament that runs Thursday through Sunday. Since Gary Woodland fell short of qualifying for the U.S. Open, Thompson didn’t have another Jayhawk for whom to root, but said he did have a rooting interest. “I’d like to see Dustin Johnson win it,” Thompson said by phone during his drive from Nashville. “He’s an incredible talent. If he gets this one, he gets the monkey off his back and

Experience should lead to more scoring By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com
Last year, scoring goals was one of the biggest problems for Lawrence High’s boys soccer team. Now it’s expected to be one of the team’s strengths. The Lions, who had more than 40 players practicing on their home field on Mon-
day morning for one of their summer workouts, return plenty of offensive firepower for the upcoming season. That includes seniors Ebrahim Diagne, Cain Scott, Hosam Aldamen and Avery German-Martinez, and junior Quentin Harrington. Diagne ranked second in the Sunflower League last year with 10 goals.
“I’m really excited because we have, like, seven or eight returning starters,” senior centerback/midfielder Charlie Carr said. “I feel like we can have a really solid team because players have been there. We definitely want a better record than last year, and I think that’s going to be our motivation.” The Lions had a 4-12-1 re-
cord last year, opening the season without a goal in the first four games. They eventually found their offensive rhythm by the end of the season, but now they are trying to raise expectations and make sure they start the season on a strong note. Please see SOCCER, page 3D
Ellis completes final workout before draft By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Perry Ellis worked out for the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday, then returned to his hometown of Wichita to relax a bit before Thursday’s NBA Draft. He’ll watch the proceedings on TV with family and close friends in Wichita. “Exhausting but fun,” Ellis, the eighth-leading Please see KEEGAN, page 3D scorer and 12th-leading
rebounder in Kansas University hoops history told NBA.com, referring to traveling to facilities in Philly, plus Milwaukee, Atlanta, San Antonio, Phoenix, New Orleans, Toronto, Boston, New York and Los Angeles for both the Clippers and Lakers. “It’s fun because not many people get to go through it. It’s a once-ina-lifetime thing. I’m just enjoying it and working
hard,” the 6-foot-8 forward added. To csnphilly.com he added: “It felt like time was moving so slow through these workouts, but it’s finally over. You hope hard work pays off.” Through the process, Ellis has managed to accumulate a batch of NBA apparel in his size. “From each workout we get a bag of gear. It’s pretty cool to take it home and

COMMENTARY
Steph Curry failed. Let’s just say it plainly. The NBA’s reigning, unanimous Most Valuable Player got badly outplayed by the NBA Finals MVP on Sunday night, and that’s the biggest reason Cleveland shocked Golden State and won a thrilling Game 7 on the Warriors’ home floor, 93-89. While Cleveland’s LeBron James played like a superhuman while finishing off the best basketball game of his career given the enormous stakes, Curry was utterly human. Curry scored 17 points in Game 7, which was barely half his 30.1 regular-season average. He was 1-for-6 in the fourth quarter, when everything was on the line. He threw a lefthanded, behind-the-back pass straight out of bounds at a critical moment. During one late timeout, he kept hitting himself in the head in frustration, trying to bang some sense into himself. Curry never did get himself fixed, though. He had chances, getting the sorts of shots he has made all season for a Golden State team whose 73-9 regular-season record was the best in NBA history. I predicted before these Finals began that Cleveland would win the series in seven games, but I never, ever would have predicted that Curry would have played like that in a Game 7. But he did. And at the end of this regular season, Golden State now looks a whole lot like Curry’s favorite NFL team did in February. Just like the Carolina Panthers, Golden State finished in second place after a remarkable regular season and must spend the offseason puzzling out the “What-ifs.” So what next? To answer that, I remind you of another time, seven years ago, when Curry also failed. Everyone remembers Davidson’s run to the NCAA Elite Eight in 2008, when Curry was a baby-faced sophomore. Few people ever talk about 2009, when Curry and Davidson lost two huge games in a month to College of Charleston and didn’t even make the NCAA Tournament. What happened? Almost exactly the same thing. Don’t let anybody tell you Curry hasn’t experienced this before; it’s just that a lot fewer people saw it last time. So Curry failed. Twice. This happens to every athlete. Shoot, even now, LeBron James’ NBA Finals record is still only 3-4. Curry is 1-1. Curry then went pro, got better, rehabbed injuries, changed the NBA game’s entire offensive mindset and won two NBA MVPs and one team championship. He doesn’t know how to quit or settle, and he won’t do it this time, either.

DUSTIN JOHNSON, RIGHT, TALKS TO A RULES OFFICIAL ON THE FIFTH GREEN during the final round of the U.S. Open golf championship on Sunday at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pa. Johnson ultimately won the Open.
USGA ‘regrets’ handling of Johnson’s penalty The United States Golf Association said Monday it regrets the distraction caused to Dustin Johnson and the rest of the U.S. Open field by waiting until the end of the final round to assess a one-shot penalty that had no bearing on the outcome. While it is common for penalties to be assessed at the completion of a round, it is not always common for USGA rules officials to go out to the course to inform a player of a potential violation. Jeff Hall, the USGA’s senior director of rules, went out to the 12th tee Sunday at Oakmont Country Club to inform Johnson he could be penalized for a possible rules violation that occurred earlier in the round. Johnson alerted a rules official on the fifth hole that his ball moved as he was getting ready to putt. Johnson told the official he did not touch or cause his ball to move — a position he maintained after winning the championship by three shots. At the time, no penalty was assessed. But after his round, Johnson was penalized for the infraction, adding a shot to his winning score (276) and reducing his margin of victory by one. Here is the statement issued by the USGA: “Upon reflection, we regret the distraction caused by our decision to wait until the end of the round to decide on the ruling. It is normal for rulings based on video evidence to await the end of a round, when the matter can be discussed with the player before the score card is returned. While our focus on getting the ruling correct was appropriate, we created uncertainty about where players stood on the leader board after we informed Dustin on the 12th tee that his actions on the fifth green might lead to a penalty. “This created unnecessary ambiguity for Dustin and the other players, as well as spectators on-site, and those watching and listening on television and digital channels. “During any competition, the priority for Rules officials is to make the correct ruling for the protection of the player(s) involved and the entire field. In applying Rule 18-2, which deals with a ball at rest that moves, officials consider all the relevant evidence — including the player’s actions, the time between those actions and the movement of the ball, the lie of the ball, and course and weather conditions. “If that evidence, considered together, shows that it is more likely than not that the player’s actions caused the ball to move, the player incurs a one-stroke penalty. Officials use this “more likely than not” standard because it is not always apparent what caused the ball to move. Such situations require a review of the evidence, with Decision 18-2/0.5 providing guidance on how the evidence should be weighed. “Our officials reviewed the video of Dustin on the fifth green and determined that based on the weight of the evidence, it was more likely than not that Dustin caused his ball to move. Dustin’s putter contacted the ground at the side of the ball, and almost immediately after, the ball moved. “We accept that not everyone will agree that Dustin caused his ball to move. Issues under Rule 18-2 often require a judgment where there is some uncertainty, and this was one of those instances. We also understand that some people may disagree with Rule 18-2 itself. While we respect the viewpoints of those who disagree, our Committee made a careful and collective judgment in its pursuit of a fair competition played under the Rules of Golf.
LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps
“In keeping with our commitment to excellence in all aspects of our work on behalf of the game of golf, we pledge to closely examine our procedures in this matter. We will assess our procedures for handling video review, the timing of such, and our communication with players to make sure that when confronted with such a situation again, we will have a better process.”

ISU adds transfer from UT Ames, Iowa — Iowa State coach Steve Prohm says Tennessee transfer Ray Kasongo has joined the program. Kasongo, a 6-foot-8, 245-pound forward from Toronto, will sit out next season per NCAA transfer rules. He has two seasons of eligibility remaining. Kasongo played in 22 games for the Volunteers last season, averaging 1.4 points and 1.5 rebounds after transferring from the College of Southern Idaho. Kasongo will give the Cyclones some much-needed size once he becomes eligible. Iowa State recently signed a pair of one-year graduate transfers, Merrill Holden and Darrell Bowie, as fill-ins following the graduations of Georges Niang and Jameel McKay.

DA not prosecuting ’Bama duo Monroe, La. — The district attorney’s office has decided not to prosecute Alabama offensive lineman Cam Robinson and reserve defensive back Laurence “Hootie” Jones on drug and weapons charges. Prosecutor Neal Johnson cited insufficient evidence in court documents filed on Monday. Calls to the district attorney’s office by the Associated Press were not immediately returned. Robinson and Jones were arrested in the early morning of May 17 for the misdemeanor charge of carrying a weapon in the presence of narcotics. Robinson also was charged with felony possession of stolen firearms. Robinson is an All-Southeastern Conference left tackle for the defending national champions. He’s projected as a high NFL Draft pick going into his junior season. Jones is also a junior but has played sparingly. Monroe police said the players were arrested after an officer smelled marijuana coming from a parked car in a closed public park. When the officer approached the car, he saw a handgun in Jones’ lap, police said. A search of the car then turned up marijuana and a handgun that had been reported stolen in Baldwin County, Alabama.

Wichita Northwest lineman commits to Kansas football By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
It did not take the Kansas University football program long to move on from recent de-commitments from a couple of Texas offensive linemen in the Class of 2017. With Grant Polley and Jared Hocker recently backing out of pledges to join the Jayhawks, that opened the door for a Kansas kid to accept an offer from the KU coaching staff. Joey Gilbertson, a 6-foot-4, 290-pound tackle from Wichita’s Northwest High, on Monday
announced via Twitter that he had orally committed to KU. Gilbertson said his recent visit to campus for KU’s Friday Night Lights camp helped seal the deal, and he credited Oline coach Zach Yenser and recruiting coordinator Kenny Perry for convincing him that KU was the right fit. “He always tells me I am a defensive lineman playing offensive line,” Gilbertson told JayhawkSlant.com’s Jon Kirby of Yenser. “He said he likes how I fire off the ball and hit people. He loves my physicality.”
Named to the Wichita Eagle’s 2015 All-Metro squad, Gilbertson is one of many Kansas prospects being pursued by the Jayhawks. When he was introduced as KU’s new head coach back in December of 2014, David Beaty said recruiting the state would be a priority, and although last year’s scholarship class featured just one Kansan (Free State High safety Bryce Torneden), the Jayhawks have sent out offers and made runs at several Sunflower State players during Beaty’s first two recruiting classes.

the rest in the second half,” Scott said. “But as a program, overall, we’re looking pretty good. We still have things that we can work on.” Scott played on a club team with Diagne in the spring, and he hopes that extra experience will translate to the field this
fall when they are playing forward together. “We’ve got a real good attack, I think,” Murphy said. “Now it’s going to be just figuring out how do we want to defend behind that? And most of those guys at least have some experience.” Defensively, the Lions
will likely be led by their core of returners Cameron Guy, DJ Davis, Parker King and Spencer Monninger. The Lions practice three times a week, and Murphy said they’ve averaged about 50 players on most days, helped by large sophomore and freshmen classes. When they play in scrimmages, they usually split up into two half fields. “The only challenge with that many kids is just finding enough space for all of the different drills,” Murphy said. “You’d like to have at least some of the drills simulate gametype situations, which requires just a little bit more space.” With so many players working out in the summer, the Lions believe it will only add to their depth for the season. And they hope they can make the most of this upcoming year.
Thompson averaged 291.5 yards off the tee in Nashville, where he said the heat of his putter largely accounted for the fluctuation in his scores. “I putted great the first day and didn’t make any putts the last three days,” Thompson said. He did, however, make a flurry of birdies at the end of his third round, on 13, 15, 16 and 18. Even I never have done that. This is a good time for the quiet, confident, cerebral stick to get hot since he’s playing in a tournament in which he has done well in the past. Thompson earned $19,581 when he tied for seventh in the 2013 Air Capital Classic. To understand what a first-place finish in Wichita would do for Thompson’s career, consider what winning in Nashville did for James Driscoll. He entered the tourney
ranked 144th on the web.com money list and vaulted all the way to 17th with his $99,000 check. The top 25 at the end of the season earn PGA tour cards. Thompson could make a similar leap by winning a tournament, which also would put him in the rest of the tour’s events. Thompson’s good enough to do it, as are a number of other players in the field. It’s just a question of which player gets the hottest with the putter for those four days. While Thompson played his way into the hunt for a title in Wichita, Woodland was in Lawrence, playing in the Lawrence Country Club member-guest as a guest of KU’s Deputy Athletic Director, Sean Lester. “I withdrew from the U.S. Open to play in it,” Woodland joked.
Technically, Woodland wasn’t the only pro in the event, which was played with full handicaps and won by amateurs Terry Clark and Bill Grosdidier. Lawrence resident Greg Sharp took himself out of contention for amateur tournaments when he accepted a $600 check after finishing tied for 33rd in the Colorado Senior Open the first weekend in June at Green Valley Ranch Golf Club. Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway, general manager of the Denver Broncos, finished one stroke better than Sharp in a tie for 29th. Sharp, a mad bomber off the tee known for trying and sometimes pulling off high-risk shots, could have finished ahead of Elway if not for carding a 9 on the 18th hole of in the first of three rounds. “I’m done,” Sharp said of his amateur status.

“The winning mentality is the most important thing we need to develop,” Carr said. “I think we have the skill, but we just need the desire to win.” During the last month, the Lions have played exhibition games against Leavenworth and De Soto. They will play three games Saturday in Salina and will travel to St. Louis for a tournament next month. LHS coach Mike Murphy said the St. Louis tournament attracts “some of the top competition in the whole region.” In exhibition matches, the Lions put more emphasis on development, trying out different combinations in their lineups. “Both of those (exhibition games), varsity played pretty much the whole first half and then

he’ll start piling them up.” Johnson shook the monkey, even if he was assessed a penalty because his golf ball moved toward him on the green when he was taking practice swings with his putter. (How could he have made it move toward him? Nature did that.) Johnson was sure nothing he did made the ball move, but the USGA officials, who handled the whole thing horribly, disagreed. Thompson had no such troubles in Nashville. He carded 66-7469-73 for 6-under total, a finish that resulted in $4,693 being directdeposited in his account and gave him a spot in the Wichita field.
“I hope that opens doors to KU,” Gilbertson told Kirby about being the latest in-state athlete to pick Kansas. “I hope recruits realize it’s not about winning now but also winning later.” Gilbertson becomes the eighth member of the 2017 class to commit to the Jayhawks, and he is the second Kansan to commit to the Jayhawks this offseason, joining Free State High linebacker Jay Dineen. The Wichita Northwest lineman chose Kansas over interest from KState, Louisville, Tulane and Tulsa.

various stops: “What makes you NBA ready?” “(I’m) a guy I feel can do a lot of things. Get out and guard guards, defend bigger guys also. I feel that will be key,” Ellis said. “I can be a 3-, 4-man. It depends on the team, whatever will fit best. I feel I can do a little of both. Whatever the team may need I can mold myself into doing, I think.” On Monday, Ellis’ every move was observed by Sixers director of operations/scouting innovation Vince Rozman. Others to work out: Villanova’s Ryan Arcidiacono, Old Dominion’s Trey Freeman, Buffalo’s Justin Moss, New Mexico State’s Pascal Siakam and Stony Brook’s Jameel Warney. “Perry’s skilled,” Rozman told csnphilly.com. “He’s a really, really good offensive player for his size. He’s versatile. He has a chance. He’s so productive throughout four years of college.” Ellis also visited with his former KU teammate Joel Embiid, the Sixers’ overall No. 3 pick in the 2014 draft. “He was such a smart guy, it was impressive,” Ellis said of 7-footer Embiid. “He picked up things so fast. You could just see his footwork was good. He’s going to be a great player.” As to what he will expect in watching the draft Thursday, Ellis said: “It’s
up in the air. I don’t know. I’m just going to go out there to be with family, just watch and see what happens.” l
Alma maters benefit: Ellis has donated one of his KU jerseys to Wichita Brooks Middle School and one to Wichita Heights High School. KAKE.com reports that Heights will put Ellis’ jersey in its trophy case next to the four state title trophies Ellis helped the Falcons win. Brooks will hang the jersey in a display case next to a working video of a motivational speech Ellis recorded for students. “That was the first thing that I thought about was giving a jersey to my old coaches, old schools. It’s just something, it’s just a great feeling,” Ellis told KAKE.com. “I’m awfully proud of him, and anything we can do to recognize his accomplishments and motivate our young kids out here,” Ellis’ high school basketball coach at Heights, Joe Auer, told the TV station.

Cardinals put end to 5-game slide STANDINGS
National League Cardinals 3, Cubs 2 Chicago — Brandon Moss and Jhonny Peralta homered against John Lackey, and St. Louis stopped a five-game slide by holding off Chicago on Monday. Aledmys Diaz added an RBI single, and Jaime Garcia (5-6) pitched into the seventh inning as the Cardinals got back on track following their first winless homestand of at least two series since 1983. It was their first trip to Wrigley Field since they were eliminated by the Cubs in their NL Division Series last year.

THE CUBS’ KRIS BRYANT WEARS A PITCH from St. Louis starting pitcher Jaime Garcia during the fifth inning of the Cardinals’ 3-2 victory on Monday in Chicago. D’backs 3, Phillies 1 Philadelphia — Shelby Miller threw 62⁄3 sharp innings, Jake Lamb hit a two-run homer, and Arizona beat reeling Philadelphia to complete a four-game sweep. Miller (2-6) allowed one run and five hits, striking out five in his first start since May 24. He had been on the disabled list because of a sprained right index finger. The Phillies went 0-6 on their first winless homestand of six or more games since September 1964.

Trevor Story, Nick Hundley and Charlie Blackmon also went deep for the Rockies, who salvaged the finale of a fourgame series.

CLEVELAND’S LEBRON JAMES, CENTER, HOLDS UP THE NBA CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY alongside teammates Kyrie Irving, left, Kevin Love, rear right, J.R. Smith, right, and Tristan Thompson Monday at the airport in Cleveland.
James delivers trophy to Cleveland Cleveland (ap) — LeBron James stepped off the plane and into a blizzard of red-and-gold confetti before hoisting the Larry O’Brien trophy. It gleamed in the bright summer sun, a symbol of hope and history. As promised, James brought home a championship, the one on hold the past 52 years. “This is for you, Cleveland,” James shouted into a microphone. The superstar, born and raised in nearby Akron, powered the Cavaliers to a never-seenbefore comeback in the NBA Finals, bringing them back from a 3-1 deficit to stun the Golden State Warriors. On Monday, more than 10,000 fans gathered at Hopkins International Airport welcomed James and his teammates, who made a pit stop in Las Vegas for late-night partying before completing this unlikeliest June journey. The Cavs not only defied the odds to make history, but they ended Cleveland’s pro sports title drought stretching to 1964, when the Browns won an NFL title. It’s been a surreal ride for Clevelanders and shortly after showing fans the trophy from afar, James, the four-time league MVP, paraded it around the perimeter of the parking lot so fans behind the chain-linked fences could see they weren’t dreaming. “I kept waking up during the night and saying, ‘Did we really win?’” said Diana Beetler of Oberlin, Ohio. “I couldn’t believe it. I’ve never had a championship since I was born. We’ve been waiting years and years for this.” She watched Sunday night’s game at home with family. “I cried,” said Beetler’s 18-year-old daughter, Zoe. “Everybody cried.”
It seems the entire city choked up after James capped his MVP series with a sensational Game 7, a triple-double performance that will long be remembered for his chase-down block of Warriors forward Andre Iguodala in the final minutes — a rejection that seemed to erase so many bad memories in Cleveland. James’ emotional reaction following the game seemed to strike a chord with everyone. He broke down crying several times, overwhelmed by the magnitude of what he had accomplished and what he knew it meant to Northeast Ohio. “It was unbelievable,” said Indians manager Terry Francona, who helped the Boston Red Sox end their 86-year World Series dryspell. “I almost enjoy that part of it as much. Watching the genuine emotion come out. So often, when guys are talking, it’s saying the right thing. I get it. I’m supposed to do it, too. It’s just part of the job. But to see the genuine emotion come out was pretty cool.” Many of the fans who arrived at the vast I-X Center adjacent to the airport on Monday morning were going on little or no sleep following Sunday night’s riveting victory. The crowd was entertained by music and dancers before cheering replays of the final, frenetic minutes of Game 7 as if they were living them for the first time. Cleveland’s furry mascot, Moondog, body surfed on the massive crowd, which continued to grow up until the moment the Cavs’ 757 jet pulled in about 12:40 p.m., welcomed under two crisscrossing water cannons and deafening cheers.
Cavs coach Tyronn Lue, who took over the team in late January, and several other players paused at the top gangway to film and absorb the wild scene below as fans let loose and sang Queen’s “We Are The Champions.” Following star guard Kyrie Irving and a shirtless J.R. Smith, James was the last player to come through the plane’s door. When he lifted the trophy, Cleveland erupted as it did a few hours earlier after the 93-89 victory.

LeBron lashes out at critics Cleveland (ap) — LeBron James ended his social media blackout by throwing a knockout punch at his critics. One day after ending Cleveland’s 52-year pro sports championship drought, James, who refrains from Twitter and other message platforms during the postseason, posted a rant on Instagram aimed at those who have doubted him. He also took a swipe at the Golden State Warriors, who became the first team to blow a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals, by wearing a blue T-shirt with “Ultimate Warrior” written on the front when the Cavs returned to Cleveland on Monday to a raucous celebration
at Cleveland’s Hopkins Airport. On his Instagram posting, which included him wearing a hat with Kermit the Frog sipping tea — an internet meme used to denote sarcasm and is paired with the saying, “That’s none of my business” — James unleashed a rant as vicious as one of his dunks. Accompanied by a photo of him clutching the Larry O’Brien trophy, James wrote: “They said u lost a step, wasn’t explosive as once was, the best days was in the (rear) view, questioned your drive, your leadership, your commitment, you don’t have killer instinct, going back home is the worst mistake in your career, he got the coach fired, play-
