Abortion ruling expected to affect Kansas clinics “

Analysis: Brownback’s ‘three-legged stool’ view of Kansas economy no longer accurate
Topeka — rights advocates in Kansas hailed a U.S. Supreme Court ruling Monday that struck down a pair of Texas laws regulating abortion providers. But abortion foes called the decision a “tragedy” that removes legal and medical safeguards for patients. In a 5-3 ruling, the court struck down laws requiring doctors performing abortions to have admitting privileges at a hospital located near the abortion clinic and requiring clinics that provide abortions to meet the same standards as outpatient surgery centers.

uring a meeting last week of the State Finance Council, Gov. Sam Brownback used a common analogy to describe the Kansas economy. “You recall the comment about the Kansas economy is a three-legged stool,” he said. “You’ve got agriculture, oil and gas, and aviation. You and I have been around the state for a long period of time. Those are the three primary legs of the stool.” He made that comment during an exchange with Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, who was pressing Brownback to admit that the tax cuts that the governor championed in 2012 and 2013 have not worked as planned and that those failures are the reasons for the state’s budget shortfalls. But Brownback rejected that idea, arguing that the state is going through a rare cycle when all three of the industries he says are the major underpinnings of the Kansas economy are going through downturns. He cited the recent collapse of oil and gas prices, record low farm commodity prices, and recent mergers and consolidations in the Wichita-area aviation industry. “So your three primary legs of the Kansas economy have been in great difficulty all together,” Brownback said. “Aviation has struggled for several years, but ag and oil were pretty good prior to that, but last year it was in tremendous difficulty.” The phrase “three-legged stool” has been used for decades to describe the Kansas economy. But a review of economic data for the last several years shows that, with the exception of the aviation industry, it is no longer an accurate description of Kansas in the 21st century.
— Laura McQuade, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri Kansas enacted similar laws in 2011, but a state court put those laws on hold, and both sides in the case later agreed to let them remain on hold pending the outcome of the Texas case. “This is a monumental day for reproductive rights, reproductive Please see ABORTION, page 2A
Brownback signs school finance bill Measure ends shutdown threat By John Hanna Associated Press
Topeka — Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback signed legislation Monday to increase aid to poor school districts, an action that meets a court mandate and ends a threat that the state’s public schools might shut down. The bill, which takes effect Friday, increases poor districts’ state funding $38 million for 2016-17 by diverting funds from other parts of the state budget. It also redistributes some funds from

wealthier districts in line with a state Supreme Court ruling last month. The court said the state’s school funding system remains unfair to poor districts, despite three rounds of changes in the past three years. Lawmakers had until Thursday to make further changes, and the court had said that schools might not reopen if no action was taken. The measure had broad, bipartisan support when the Republicandominated Legislature passed it last week during a two-day special session. Both legislative staffers Please see FINANCE, page 2A

STACY JUNE COTTRELL CECIL CHARLES WILLIAM GLENN Charles W. Glenn died Friday morning in his home in Lawrence. He was born in Holton, KS on October 15, 1923, the only child of Carl G. Glenn and Clara Kaul Glenn. After graduating from Holton High School in 1941, he attended Kansas State University. His education was interrupted as he served with the Merchant Marine’s during World War II. Merchant Marines were ineligible for the GI Bill, so he stayed home and custom farmed before he reunited with his beloved brothers at the Farmhouse Fraternity at KState and completed a Bachelor of Science and a Master’s Degrees. He married Dixie Dove Glenn and had two children, Grant (Donna Reynolds) and Jennifer (Larry Hoyle), both of Lawrence. After Dixie died in 2000, he married Normagene Addington, who survives in the home. Education was important to Charles, and he made certain his children had his encouragement and financial support to attain their degrees. During his career he worked as an economist for the USDA, Midwest Research Institute and Butler Manufacturing. He farmed his family farm near Holton until recent years, where he enjoyed driving the old Allis Chalmers tractors that he had purchased in the 1940’s to do custom farming. His father and grandfather had been carpenters and he was skilled enough to build a home west of the Plaza with his own hands and a
little help from some professionals. Charles was active in the Kansas City community, having been president of the Shawnee Mission Sertoma Club, the Shawnee Mission Indian Historical Society, and most of all in his church, where he was a licensed lay reader. Charles loved people, and was a very special and humble person. He made it his mission when he met someone new to find out if they had any friends or relatives from his hometown. He greatly loved his family and would ride the rides at Worlds of Fun with his grandchildren even after he was well into his 70’s. He was especially proud of not only his children but his surviving grandchildren, Alexander (Heather), Charles (Melanie), Margaret Glenn and Emma Hoyle. He is also survived by his seven great grandchildren, Abby, Ellie, Sydney, Caroline, Amelia, Ollie and Noah. He was a wonderful role model for his family as he spent quality time with his children and grandchildren that they will never forget. Services will be at 10 :00 Thursday at St. Michaels and All Angels Episcopal Church in Mission. In lieu of the family Flowers, suggests contributions be made in honor of Charles to the KU Endowment, Dixie Glenn Scholarship Fund. Please sign this guestbook at Obituaries. LJWorld.com.

Eudora OKs electrical utility rate survey different categories of residential, commercial and industrial customers. It was possible that rate structure has gotten “out of line” in the last 15 years, Shepherd said. Identifying true costs are a necessary step in creating a net metering policy and rate, Shepherd said. It would protect customers, too, by providing them the price for which they could sell excess power before they made an investment in solar panels, he said. It will take about four months to complete the
study, Shepherd said. Interim City Manager Barack Matite said the electric utility fund was healthy enough to absorb the cost of the study. Commissioners also approved an ordinance requiring contractors who do business in Eudora to be licensed with the city. It was agreed the city now would establish a fee structure for the permits.

The Supreme Court could rule early next year on a lower-court panel’s decision on whether the state must increase its annual spending on schools by at least $548 million.
and the Republican governor moved with unusual speed because of the deadline; some bills aren’t signed until 20 days after their final passage. “It keeps the schools open,” Brownback said after signing the measure. “Now we can move on forward on other issues that the state faces.” Despite the measure, Kansas faces more legal and political battles over education funding. The Supreme Court could rule early next year on a lower-court panel’s decision on whether
the state must increase its annual spending on schools by at least $548 million. And Republican leaders have committed the Legislature to writing a new finance formula next year. The court’s ruling last month came in a lawsuit filed in 2010 by the Dodge City, Hutchinson, Wichita, and Kansas City, Kan., school districts. Within a half-hour of the signing, their attorneys and the state’s lawyers filed a joint statement with the state Supreme Court telling it
spends. But the Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly that the Kansas Constitution requires legislators to finance a suitable education for all children, whether they live in rich or poor areas. Kansas has struggled to balance its budget since Republican legislators slashed personal income taxes in 2012 and 2013 at Brownback’s urging in an effort to stimulate the economy. Those ongoing budget problems prompted lawmakers to boost aid to poor districts without increasing overall state spending, tapping sources such as motor vehicle fees and funds from a national legal settlement with tobacco companies in the 1990s.

The Eudora City Commission on Monday agreed the city should undertake the first study of its electrical utility rate in 15 years. The $25,000 cost of service/rate study will be conducted by Sawvel and Associates Inc. of Findlay, Ohio, which has done an annual budget review of the electrical department since 2010. The commission started exploring such a study after receiving requests

for net metering from residents who wanted to install solar panels. Net metering allows customers generating electrical power through solar or wind generation to sell power back to their electrical utility during times they produce more power than they use. Trey Shepherd, of Sawvel, said the study would break down Eudora’s electrical delivery costs from such things as transmission, administration and capital upgrades. It would propose appropriate rates for the city’s
that the legislation satisfies the court’s demands for fairly distributed education funds. “We’ve got this chapter behind us,” said John Robb, an attorney representing the four districts suing the state. But he called the issue of whether the state spends enough money on its schools overall “the main course” of the lawsuit. The bill increases aid by less than 1 percent of the more than $4 billion a year the state already

health access, not only by the vote itself but by the content of this decision, which is broad and sweeping in nature,” said Laura McQuade, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri. Abortion rights advocates refer to such regulations as “TRAP” laws, or “targeted regulations of abortion providers.” In its ruling, the majority said, “neither of these provisions offers medical benefits sufficient to justify the burdens upon access that each imposes. Each places a substantial obstacle in the path of women seeking a previability abortion, each constitutes an undue burden on abortion access ... and each violates the Federal Constitution.” Mary Kay Culp, executive director of Kansans for Life, the state’s largest anti-abortion lobby group, called the decision “a real tragedy for women and, as always, for their unborn children.” “No one who truly cares about women, not to mention unborn children, would ever applaud today’s decision,” she said. “It shows in the starkest terms the so-called ‘safe and legal’ fantasy for what it always has been: a cover for abortion at all costs, even the cost of a young woman’s life.” Culp said the ruling will mean that a woman who is hurt or made infertile from an abortion procedure will have no recourse because suing a doctor would require her to publicly state that she had an abortion, and the court would require another abortion provider to testify as an expert witness. “It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see how that usually ends,” Culp said. Kansas has four clinics offering abortion services. Planned Parenthood operates two clinics in Kansas, one in Overland Park and another in Wichita. McQuade said the Overland Park clinic is already licensed as an outpatient surgery clinic and its doctors have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals. But she said that is not the case in Wichita, and she estimated it would cost in excess of $1 million to bring that clinic up to the standards of an outpatient surgery center. McQuade said Monday’s decision does not immediately invalidate Kansas’ laws. She said Planned Parenthood was still reviewing the opinion to decide what legal strategy it will take next. The office of Gov. Sam Brownback expressed disappointment with Monday’s decision. “We are disappointed in the Supreme Court’s ruling, but the Governor will continue the fight to make Kansas a pro-life state,” Eileen Hawley, spokeswoman for Brownback, said in an email. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt’s office said through a spokeswoman only that it was reviewing the ruling. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com. — The Associated Press contributed to this report.

ansas lawmakers deserve credit both for what they did do and what they didn’t do during last week’s special legislative session. Their key accomplishment was a school funding plan that should make sure the state’s K-12 public schools are open next fall. Of at least equal importance was the Legislature’s failure to advance a constitutional amendment aimed at limiting the powers of the state’s judiciary. After a false start, lawmakers were able to agree to a measure that will reinstate the previous school funding formula and add about $38 million to next year’s school funding package. As the special session began, legislative leaders had negotiated a plan that would raise those funds from a variety of sources including $13 million from a 0.5 percent across-the-board cut to school districts. Although leaders presented the plan as virtually a done deal, the bill ran into substantial opposition from legislators who subsequently crafted a different plan that found other sources of funding and doesn’t include any cuts to school districts. The measure will keep schools open, but it’s only a short-term solution. Legislators have promised to craft an entirely new school finance system next year, but that, of course, will depend on who is in the Legislature following elections in November. Regardless of what action is taken on a new plan, Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, predicted that continuing revenue shortfalls will force legislators to revisit the funding plan they approved last week. The new Legislature also can decide whether to revive last week’s effort to pass a constitutional amendment to prohibit both the Legislature and the Kansas Supreme Court from closing public schools as a remedy in any school finance case. Fortunately, action to place the amendment on the November ballot was narrowly defeated in the Kansas Senate. Consideration of the amendment during the special session was inappropriate. The measure would have had no impact on the current school finance situation and was introduced primarily as a slap at the state’s judicial branch. The amendment effort was led by Sen. Jeff King, R-Independence, who has decided not to seek re-election. Hopefully the amendment effort also will not be back in the Legislature next year. Congratulations to legislators who were focused on funding state schools and were willing to stand up to legislative leaders who presented an unacceptable funding plan. They produced a relatively positive and efficient outcome to a session that could have been a train wreck.
OLD HOME TOWN
British populism a warning for U.S. London — How fitting. As the Brits cast a stunning vote to quit the European Union, Donald Trump was opening a luxury golf course in Scotland and crowing that Britain did “a great thing.” This historic victory for the British Brexiteers is part of a nationalist trend that is gripping Europe and has spread across the Atlantic. The leader of the “Leave” campaign, the blond, mop-haired Boris Johnson, is a bombastic Trump clone who defied his Conservative Party’s leader, Prime Minister David Cameron. Johnson will probably succeed Cameron, who announced his upcoming resignation Friday. Talking to Leave voters on the Tube, in restaurants and on the street, I heard them regurgitate populist promises made by Johnson, and by his

unofficial backup, the inflammatory Nigel Farage, head of the U.K. Independence Party. Many of these promises are unachievable or based on specious data. By Friday, Farage was already backpedaling on one key pledge — that Brexit would bring a huge cash infusion for Britain’s national health service. But, never mind. “We will get our country back,” pledged the demagogic Farage. “We will get our independence back.” He hopes his party will vastly expand on its sole seat in Parliament, buoyed by many white working-class voters who defected from the Labour Party to vote Leave. (From Scotland, Trump echoed Farage and Johnson: “Come November, the American people will have the chance to redeclare their independence.”) Of course, the differences between Britain and its onetime American colony are
legion. But Americans who worry about the direction of U.S. politics should focus on what caused the political earthquake in Britain and why populists are on such a roll. Public disaffection from mainstream political parties, and from the European Union bureaucracy in Brussels, has been growing for years. Longtime unemployment in former industrial areas created bitterness in the Labour Party’s former heartland, while Cameron’s embrace of austerity further alienated many voters. Both mainstream parties — Labour and Conservative — have lost popular trust and left openings for those who attack the establishment. The Leave campaign produced two convenient targets to blame for economic pain: immigrants and the bureaucracy in Brussels. As a bleached-blonde woman dispatcher complained to me outside the gritty Newbury Park Tube station, echoing the Leave pitch: “People from other countries get priority. We should take care of our own.” Make no mistake, there is an immigration problem in Britain, as social services become overburdened. And the EU bureaucracy in Brussels has failed badly in handling the euro and refugee crises. But leaving Europe offers no silver bullet on either account, and it will do the economy more harm than good. Take immigration. Britain has admitted almost no Syrian refugees, and, unlike other EU members, never gave up border controls. Half its immigrants enter legally

from other European nations. Cameron had already imposed tighter controls on their entry. If Britain now wants to negotiate a separate trade deal with the European Common Market, as it must, Brussels will no doubt demand it keep its doors open to European migrants. As for most of the remaining inflow, a large portion come from British Commonwealth countries such as India. Quitting the EU will do nothing to stop them. Yet nearly every Leave voter I met believed that Brexit would effectively wall off Britain from foreigners and would somehow permit the country to renew its historic standing in the world. Once again, Britannia will rule the waves. Instead, the vote has plunged Britain into uncertain economic terrain. It will lower Britain’s international standing, not raise it. In a globalized world, operating solo provides less clout. It may turn Great Britain into Little England, as Scotland — which wants to stay in the EU — is already pledging to hold another independence referendum. And it will alienate the best of British youth by opening a glaring age gap. Seventyfive percent of voters age 18 to 25 cast ballots for Remain. I spoke with scores of young Brits the night before the vote, at an open house at Space Studios, an artists’ cooperative in Hackney. All said they were voting to stay because they want the right to travel, study, and work freely in EU member states, and they appreciate the collaborative grants for the arts
and scientific research that the EU provides. Most disturbing, the Brexit vote may precipitate the EU’s breakup — to the benefit of populist political parties throughout the continent. The French far right is already calling for a Frexit vote, and other euroskeptic parties on both right and left will follow. Johnson and Trump think this would be fine (and so would Vladimir Putin, who wants to see Europe splinter). Their slogans are, respectively, “Britain first” and “America first.” But for all its flaws, the EU has stood for something much more important than Brussels’ often petty rules. Germany’s Angela Merkel, who lived under communism, gets it. After the results were in, she said, “The idea of European unity is the idea of European peace … after centuries of terrible bloodshed (and this) is not to be taken for granted. In Europe we still feel the effect of wars.” The failure of both of Britain’s mainstream parties to grasp the voters’ mood has left the field to populists who promise voters they will “take back control” from enemies abroad. When — in a globalized world — those promises turn to ashes, we will see whom the populists blame. America’s mainstream parties are suffering from the same ills as Britain’s, but there is still time for U.S. voters to take notice. As tempting as populist promises may be, they will likely mean little once the votes are in. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist and editorial-board member for the Philadelphia Inquirer.
PUBLIC FORUM
Trump questions To the editor: Donald Trump keeps bellowing, “We have to take our country back.” From whom or what? What horrible and disgusting entity is the country threatened with, according to the loud-mouthed TV/media non-sensation? Yeah, there is unemployment. There are those who are uneducated for the modern world, unmotivated, cannot get up in time to get to work and more. They are unemployable. There will NEVER be 100 percent employment. There are political issues that we have much disagreement on and will never be resolved in the news media’s constant drumbeat in their efforts to sell soap, diapers and automobiles. But there are an overwhelming number of good businesses providing jobs for the interested and qualified. Although you hear constant negative blather about Wall Street and the stock market, the financial situation continues to carry on. Oh, yeah, there are potholes in the road to financial affairs, but in the long run our financial system has worked miracles in our economy. What is the rub here? No system that works runs completely smoothly. It is simply the way of things, and nothing is ever perfect. So what is the anointed one of the Republicans talking about? But Trump
is not known for reasonable and sane commentary. I guess we just have to wait it out until November and hope that the American electorate has more sense than to select this media-created anomaly. Fred R. Whitehead Jr., Lawrence
Majority voices To the editor: I often read Lawrence city commissioners quoted saying “that’s not what the people who elected me want” — and it is usually something that they oppose. Things like growth, support for development, expanding retail and the East Ninth Street arts project. I think that it’s important to point out that the biggest vote getter last year garnered only 6,131 votes, about 13.8 percent of registered voters in Lawrence. Once elected, their job should be to represent all the citizens of Lawrence, not just those who voted for them. In an apparent attempt by the commission to do just that, the Ninth Street project was subject to a most extensive process to get input from a large constituency. Many public meetings were held, adjustments made and several commissions recommended moving forward. Indeed it was the most pondered project in recent memory. Despite that and the number of people who spoke publicly in support of
the project, our City Commission continues to ponder on about the project. I wonder if some commissioners are trying to figure out how to appease the less than 15 percent of registered voters who voted for them, rather than hearing the voices of the majority. So the lesson for me is this: We get the commission we deserve if we opt not to vote. Al Horning, Lawrence
Festival success To the editor: As the chair of the Lawrence Arts Center, I am so proud of the entire staff who have worked on top of their full-time jobs to create the Free State Festival, a communitywide event. There was something for everyone — more than 70 art talks, lectures and idea panels, concerts and exhibitions. Support from the City of Lawrence make the free events possible. Nowhere else in the Midwest can we have one week filled with experiences that enhance our creativity and understanding of others, and take us back to reminisce the times in our youth. Thank you to Sarah Bishop, director of the festival, and all of the Lawrence Arts Center staff for an incredible week in Lawrence. Joan Golden, Lawrence

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court delivered its most significant ruling on abortion in a generation Monday, striking down restrictions on Texas clinics and doctors that had created roadblocks for thousands of women and giving abortion rights advocates hope of beating back similar laws in other states. The divided court, acting on the final day of a term in which the death of Justice Antonin Scalia left it shorthanded, ruled 5-3 that the Texas law’s restrictions impose hardships on women seeking abortions without serving any medical purpose. The ruling could have an impact beyond Texas by prompting legislatures and courts to reconsider other limits on abortion. Legislatures across the nation have imposed about 250 restrictions in the past five years. Justice Stephen Breyer ruled for the majority that states cannot impose restrictions that represent an undue burden on women seeking abortions without sufficient health benefits. The restrictions, which threatened to
LONDON British Prime Minister David Cameron laid out the first steps toward the “Brexit” and ruled out a second referendum Monday as global anxiety heightened over the implications of the United Kingdom’s vote to split from the European Union. World markets shuddered in the second day of negative reaction to Thursday’s vote. The British pound has fallen to its lowest value in decades, and the U.K. was stripped of its perfect AAA credit as S&P Ratings took it down two notches to AA. The vote was a “seminal event and will lead to a less predictable, stable and effective policy framework in the U.K.,” the S&P report says. Cameron said the U.K. would seek to retain the “strongest possible” economic ties with the EU. “Britain is leaving the European Union, but we must not turn our back on Europe or the rest of the world,” Cameron said in a speech to Parliament. Cameron reiterated his position that details of the Brexit terms should be worked out by his successor. He had planned to stay on as prime minister until October, but his Conservative Party unveiled an expedited plan to replace him, calling for nominations to open Wednesday, a timetable that would put a new leader in place by Sept. 2. Cameron said he was forming a special commission of civil servants to prepare for the transition. He said he did not expect the status of workers from other countries to change, and he condemned a flare-up in hate crimes targeting Muslims, Poles and other immigrants. Cameron said that, although

Bill Evanina, the nation’s chief counterintelligence executive, urged travelers to carry “clean” devices, free of potentially valuable archives that could be tapped for economic advantage, personal data or security information. Just as the Olympics draw the world’s most talented athletes, Evanina said, the games and other international events represent a “great playground’’ for government intelligence services and criminals, if only because of the “sheer number of devices.”
A little more than a month before the Rio games and in the midst of the summer travel season, the U.S. government will launch a multimedia campaign Wednesday to advise travelers of the increasing threat. The program, “Know the Risk; Raise Your Shield,” warns in part that foreign security services and criminals track visitors’ movements through their mobile phones and are able to control such things as internal microphones remotely, often without the users’ knowledge. “When you travel abroad, assume that your personal information will be breached,” Evanina said.

Those going to the Olympic Games in Brazil are urged to leave their data at home.
Though the campaign is aimed at all U.S. travelers abroad, the approaching Olympics, which traditionally draw thousands of U.S. visitors, offer a focus of concern.
As part of the U.S. government’s awareness campaign, Evanina, through the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, advised Americans traveling abroad, regardless of their destination and purpose, to take a variety of precautions. Among them: uLeave unnecessary devices at home. uBack up data on devices in use and leave those copies in secure locations at home. uChange passwords at regular intervals during travel and on return. uAvoid prolonged sessions on local Wi-Fi networks.

High court raises bar on corruption cases Ruling on McDonnell puts politics-as-usual under a microscope Fredreka Schouten @fschouten USA TODAY
The Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling overturning former Virginia governor Bob McDonnell’s conviction makes it much harder for the government to prosecute elected officials for public corruption but not impossible, legal experts said Monday. The court set a tougher standard for wrongdoing, saying that helping a wealthy benefactor gain access to state officials, though “distasteful,” does not necessarily prove illegal quid pro quo. Monday’s ruling “leaves intact the ability of federal prosecutors to go after official misconduct at the state and local level,” said Richard Briffault, a Columbia Law School professor and expert on government ethics. But prosecutors, he said, “have to link up the quid and quo more tightly and show that the gifts influenced real official actions.” The case centers on more than $175,000 in fancy gifts and loans that McDonnell and his wife, Maureen, accepted from a wealthy dietary supplement executive during McDonnell’s tenure as governor. In return for those gifts, which included $20,000 in designer clothing and a $6,000 Rolex watch, they helped Star Scientific CEO Jonnie Williams gain access to university re-
searchers and state officials who could help Williams secure federal approval for one of his products. McDonnell and his lawyers said he never took any official state action to benefit Williams and his company. The justices agreed, arguing against criminalizing elected official’s day-to-day actions. “Setting up a meeting, calling another public official or hosting an event does not, standing alone, qualify as an official act,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in Monday’s decision. “There is no doubt that this case is distasteful,” he said. “It may be worse than that. But our concern is not with tawdry tales of Ferraris, Rolexes and ball gowns. It is instead with the broader legal implications of the government’s boundless interpretation of the federal bribery statute.” Richard Hasen, an expert on election law at the University of California-Irvine School of Law, called the court’s decision “sensible and courageous.” He described McDonnell’s actions as “odious” but said “vague and broad laws criminalizing ordinary politics raise due process problems, selective prosecutions and unfair treatment.” At the time, Virginia law did not bar McDonnell from accepting the gifts, and several election watchdogs said Monday’s ruling means states should move quickly to toughen their public corruption statutes. “Federal bribery law is not enough to protect the integrity of

Former Virginia governor Bob McDonnell leaves the Supreme Court after his appeal in April. Monday, justices overturned his conviction, though they left open the possibility of a retrial.
“Our concern is ... with the broader legal implications of the government’s boundless interpretation of the federal bribery statute.” Chief Justice John Roberts
our democracy,” said Daniel Weiner, senior counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice. “Other common-sense protections, including reasonable limits on both
personal gifts and campaign contributions, are absolutely essential.” Despite Monday’s victory, McDonnell is not in the clear. The justices left open the possibility he could be retried, but prosecutors have not signaled their next steps. In a short statement Monday afternoon, U.S. Attorney Dana Boente, whose Virginia office prosecuted McDonnell, said his office is reviewing the decision. Monday’s decision could complicate an array of pending cases, including high-profile federal corruption charges against New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez. The Democrat is accused of using his office to benefit a Florida eye doc-
tor in exchange for more than $1 million in gifts and campaign contributions. Menendez has maintained he did nothing wrong and has argued that the gifts were the result of a long-standing friendship. Lawyers for former New York Assembly speaker Sheldon Silver said Monday that the McDonnell decision “will be central” to their appeal of Silver’s corruption conviction. The decision “makes clear that federal government has gone too far in prosecuting state officials for conduct that is part of the everyday functioning of those in elected office,” Silver’s attorneys Steven Molo and Joel Cohen said in a statement. Last month, a federal judge sentenced Silver, once one of the most powerful figures in New York politics, to 12 years in prison in a $5 million public corruption case. He was slated to begin serving his prison time this week, but the judge delayed that until Aug. 31, so the Supreme Court could decide the McDonnell case. Several campaign watchdogs sharply criticized the court for setting what they view as an unreasonable standard for proving public corruption. “If you show the facts in the case to any citizen, the citizen will conclude that the public official has sold his office for personal, financial gain,” said Fred Wertheimer, president of the Democracy 21 watchdog group. “This decision is bound to further undermine the already low confidence of citizens in government and public officeholders,” he said.

mayor and Elena Kagan provided the other four votes in favor of abortion rights. Kennedy, the swing vote on the case and the senior justice in the majority, assigned the opinion to Breyer. The state had argued that the restrictions — requiring clinics to meet surgical center operating standards and doctors to have admitting privileges at nearby hospitals — were necessary to protect women’s health. Abortion rights advocates said that by adding delays and distance to the obstacles women face, the medical risks would only rise. “Neither of these provisions offers medical benefits sufficient to justify the burdens upon access that each imposes,” Breyer wrote. President Obama hailed the ruling, which came days after his immigration plan fell to a 4-4 deadlock. “We remain strongly committed to the protection of women’s health, including protecting a woman’s access to safe, affordable health care and her right to determine her own future,” he said. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton called it “exceedingly unfortunate that the court has taken the ability to protect women’s health out of the hands of Texas citizens and their duly elected representatives.” Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented. Alito accused the majority of refusing to apply “neutral legal rules,” such as a prohibition on challenging the same law twice. Thomas went further. “This suit is only possible because the court has allowed abortion clinics

and physicians to invoke a putative constitutional right that does not belong to them — a woman’s right to abortion,” he said. The ruling could have an immediate impact on other cases working their way toward the Supreme Court from Louisiana, Mississippi, Wisconsin and several more states in which restrictions have been challenged by abortion rights supporters.

latures range from 24-hour waiting periods and parental notification laws, mostly upheld by lower courts, to bans on abortion after six or 12 weeks, which courts have blocked. The Texas case loomed large on the high court’s docket this term. It offered the justices their best opportunity in a generation to define more clearly the types of restrictions states can impose under the court’s ruling in 1992 in Planned Parenthood v. Casey. The Texas law was among the toughest in the nation. About half of the state’s more than 40 clinics had closed because of the admitting privileges restriction. Critics claimed further reductions under the surgical center restriction would tempt more women to self-induce abortions, undergo risky procedures or carry unwanted pregnancies to term. The justices have maintained a tenuous balancing act when it comes to limiting abortion rights. They have upheld most restrictions, including a federal ban on late-term abortions, while blocking the most severe consequences of Texas and Louisiana laws that were upheld by the appeals court.

FIGHT FOR FALLUJAH MAY BE OVER, BUT PEOPLE CAN’T GO HOME YET Ammar Al Shamary l Special for USA TODAY
S
FALLUJAH , IRAQ
anaa Abed has spent weeks in a sweltering tent in a refugee camp, waiting for Iraqi forces to liberate this city from Islamic State militants so she can return home. But the mother of four must continue waiting until the city has been fully secured and safe for residents to move back. “My sons are dying in this heat,” said Abed, 41, whose family fled Fallujah after the Iraqi offensive against the militants began in late May. “Life in the camp is daily torture. They want to sleep well, want to eat well, and I can’t do anything for them.” Abed is part of a growing humanitarian crisis involving about 85,000 residents who fled Fallujah in the past month, according to the United Nations. “The people of Fallujah have been suffering under siege for many months without access to food or medical care,” Maha Ahmed with the U.N. World Food Program in Iraq said Monday in a AHMAD AL-RUBAYE, AFP/GETTY IMAGES statement. “Reaching them now with Iraqis displaced from Fallujah live in a newly opened camp where hundreds of refugees take shelter Monday, lifesaving food and other humanitarian south of Fallujah. Although the city has been liberated from the Islamic State, residents have to wait to return. assistance is the absolute top priority,” Iraqi military leaders declared Sunday that the city was liberated, although they were checking areas for mines. After the victory announcement, Iraqis around the country poured into the streets, waving flags and singing. Fallujah, a predominantly Sunni city about 40 miles west of Baghdad in Anbar province, was not destroyed, as happened when Ramadi was taken back from the Islamic State in December, according to the Iraqi military. U.S. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter congratulated Iraq on Monday for freeing Fallujah from the grip of the Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, but he said more needs to be done. “The operation in Fallujah has been a significant challenge,” Car-
ter said in a statement. “It will not be the last. Hard fighting remains ahead, as does the vital task of caring for the residents of Fallujah displaced by ISIL’s violence and beginning to rebuild the city so that its people may safely return.” Some Iraqi soldiers expressed bitterness about the fight. One soldier, Haidar Karim, stood on a bridge in Fallujah where he said the Islamic State killed soldiers when the militant extremists took control of the city two years ago. “We have sacrificed our lives for the sake of the martyrs who were executed by the Islamic State in this city,” he said. “From this bridge, they threw our mate, Mustafa al Athari. I can’t forget
“We are very happy for this fast and clean victory. ... The Islamic State fled very easily.” Ali Hussain
how they brutally did that to a wounded soldier.” Ali Hussain, a member of an Iraqi counterterrorism unit, said, “We are very happy for this fast and clean victory. We were always hearing Fallujah would remain undefeated, but in fact the Islamic State fled very easily and faster than expected.” He said the militants “executed
many soldiers. They killed prisoners in public. And many people from Fallujah were watching happily.” Now is the time to drive the Islamic State out of Iraq, where the group still controls the city of Mosul, said Faleh Hassan AlDarraji, a political analyst and commentator for Iraqi newspapers based in Baghdad. “The loss of Fallujah has created a fundamental break in the structure of the Islamic State, and it means the destruction for the whole group — not just in Iraq but also in Syria,” he said. “Mosul and other areas are still under their control but are not more strongly defended than Fallujah. Taking them back would be way easier.”
That’s little comfort for the thousands of refugees who are stranded outside Fallujah and want to go home and restart their lives. Aid officials said that could take months. “We just do not know which areas are safe and which aren’t,” the Norwegian Refugee Council said in a statement. “We cannot expose these people who have suffered too much already to more harm.” That doesn’t matter to some refugees. “We don’t have a lot in Fallujah now,” Abed said. “My husband’s shop is destroyed, and our house is badly damaged. But we are ready to start again — but in our home.”

None of the 222 passengers and 19 crewmembers was injured, the aircraft’s owner, Singapore Airlines, said. The jet, a Boeing 777, was flying to Milan when it was forced to return to Singapore because of an engine oil warning message. The aircraft’s right engine caught fire after it landed at Changi Airport at around 6.50 a.m. local time, the airline said. — Jane Onyanga-Omara TURKEY, ISRAEL TO SIGN PACT TO RESUME GAZA SHIPPING
Turkey and Israel will sign a reconciliation agreement Tuesday, putting to rest a six-year rift that resulted from an Israeli raid in 2010 on a flotilla of aid ships seeking to bypass Israel’s blockade of Hamas-controlled Gaza. Turkey, which broke relations with Israel after nine Turkish activists were killed while battling Israeli commandos who stormed the aid ship Mavi Marmara, will be able to ship tons of aid supplies to Gaza through Israeli customs officials, who screen for banned items such as weapons and raw materials Israel says Hamas could divert to build missiles, bunkers and smuggling tunnels.

WASHINGTON The Democrats on the House Select Committee on Benghazi issued their minority report Monday, absolving thensecretary of State Hillary Clinton of blame in the terror attacks in 2012 in which four Americans were killed. The Democrat-only report, issued after more than two years of a Republican-led investigation that took place mostly in secret, concludes that the U.S. military was not ordered to delay its response on the night of the attacks that began Sept. 11, 2012. “We hope our report will put to rest the conspiracy theories about Benghazi once and for all and return the focus to where it belongs — on the goal of improving the security of Americans serving abroad,” according to the 339-page report. The Democrats released findings independently of any forthcoming report from Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., and the panel’s other Republicans. “We are issuing our own report today because, after spending more than two years and $7 million in taxpayer funds in one of the longest and most partisan congressional investigations in history, it is long past time for the Select Committee to conclude its work,” the Democrats wrote. A spokesman for Gowdy and the GOP committee members said the Democratic report shows that Democrats, not Republicans, were focused on Clinton. “As Chairman Gowdy has said, this is not about one person,” GOP spokesman Matt Wolking said. “This investigation is about the four brave Americans we lost in Libya: (Ambassador) Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. That is how the majority has conducted its thorough investigation, and we

look forward to revealing the new information we have uncovered to the families and the American people.” Gowdy has said the Republicans’ report would be released before next month’s national political conventions. The Democrats, like previous congressional investigators, fault weak security at the U.S. facility in Benghazi and military resources that were not in a position to respond quickly enough to save lives. Clinton, they concluded, did not personally deny requests for increased security at the vulnera-
ble compound, and claims of an order that the military “stand down” in its rescue attempts are unsubstantiated. A large part of the report attacks the Republicans for using the investigation as a political attack on Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. Gowdy and the GOP have denied it was politically motivated, saying the inquiry is meant to be the final fact-based account of the circumstances before, during and after the attacks. The terrorist attacks killed four Americans in 2012. Unsatisfied with previous congressional investigations, the House created a special investigative committee in May 2014. Despite a cordial beginning, the investigation became starkly partisan. Democrats make several recommendations, including that the State Department coordinate with the Defense Department and intelligence agencies to “assess the willingness and capacity of host governments to defend U.S. diplomatic facilities.

All Chauncy Black wanted was a dozen doughnuts to quiet his hunger pangs. Instead, through a chance encounter in a grocery aisle, Chauncy and his grandmother have enough money to transform their lives, assuming they can fend off relatives attempting to get a piece of their good fortune. This story begins June 9, when Matt White, 30, a singer/ songwriter and Memphis native, made his usual trip to the Poplar Plaza Kroger to pick up groceries. As he neared the produce aisle, a teen barely 15 approached him. White listened as Chauncy offered to carry his groceries to the car in exchange for White buying him a box of doughnuts. “I looked at him and realized what he was asking me,” White said, unaware that Chauncy had approached seven other people and had been turned down each time. White began talking to him and realized that Chauncy wanted to work for his food, he didn’t want just a handout. White took Chauncy around the store and bought about $70 worth of groceries. He gave him a ride back to the South Memphis home Chauncy shared with his grandmother Barbara Black, 61. White was devastated by what he saw. “I looked at the bed-

Despite that complication, assuming no other hiccups, Chauncy and his grandmother will have a house with furniture donated by local businesses. And Chauncy will get that new lawn mower. The remaining money will be invested to grow, hopefully taking care of the two for many years. “It’s amazing. It’s amazing,” Chauncy said. “All because of Matt.” NEW MEXICO Santa Fe: Starting July 1, state residents will no longer be able to enjoy museums for free on Sundays.

NEWS MONEY SPORTS VW to pay nearly $15B to settle scandal LIFE AUTOS TRAVEL USA TODAY - L awrence J ournal -W orld TUESDAY, JUNE 28, 2016
$10B will be used to repair or buy back 475,000 diesel cars Chris Woodyard @ChrisWoodyard USA TODAY
Volkswagen will pay $14.7 billion to settle claims over its diesel cars with 2-liter diesel engines,
including plans for buybacks and payments up to $10,000 for each vehicle to owners. The deal is expected to include $10 billion to repair or buy back 475,000 cars equipped with the diesel engines, which it admits it rigged to pass emissions tests. The agreement would cover actions by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and California’s Air Resources Board and is expected to be filed in court
Tuesday. The deal still must be approved by a judge. In addition, the deal requires Volkswagen to pay $2.7 billion in fines and devotes another $2 billion to on clean-emissions technology, sources tell The Associated Press, Bloomberg News and The New York Times. Owners will receive $5,100 to $10,000 in compensation and can either have their cars fixed or bought back to be repaired to
bring them in compliance, it was reported. If owners elect to have their cars bought back, their value would be set to last September when the scandal broke. The date is important because the vehicles have lost value due to the scandal. The deal is expected to be the costliest case of its kind ever for an automaker. And the pain isn’t over: Other investigations and suits are underway that could

drive the German automakers’ costs even higher. At nearly $15 billion, the settlement would come close to the $18.2 billion that VW took as a charge against earnings in 2015 to cover costs of the debacle. Also left unsolved is what’s going to happen with Volkswagen vehicles with 3-liter diesel engines, which were also cited by the EPA as being in violation of pollution limits.

DIET PEPSI’S SWEET DIVORCE DIDN’T LAST LONG Diet Pepsi’s divorce from artificial sweetener aspartame didn’t last long. PepsiCo said Monday it would reintroduce a version of Diet Pepsi made with aspartame, which it had abandoned last year following public pressure over questions about its health effects. The new offering, sweetened with PEPSI aspartame and Ace-K, will be called Diet Pepsi Classic Sweetener Blend. Diet Pepsi sweetened with sucralose and Ace-K — the version that replaced the aspartame kind in summer 2015 — will remain as Pepsi’s primary calorie-free cola, including in fountain drinks.

British shares hit hard over continued ‘Brexit’ uncertainty Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY
Investors hammered British and U.S. bank stocks again Monday amid continuing economic and political uncertainty stemming from the United Kingdom’s surprise vote to leave the European Union. British bank shares took the worst beating, though some ended the day up slightly. Shares of Barclays closed down nearly 21% at $7.03, marking a second consecutive trading day of double-digit losses for the stock. The new drop deepened the 20.5% plunge Barclays shares suffered in U.S. trading Friday after the surprise “Brexit” referendum outcome became known. Investors remained bearish on Royal Bank of Scotland, sending the bank’s shares down 13.6% to a $4.69 close. The drop followed a

British Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne acknowledged Monday that financial market volatility likely would continue.
27.5% plummet in the stock Friday. Shares of Lloyds Banking Group similarly fell 16.5% to a $2.78 close, adding to their nearly 23.3% drop in U.S. trading Friday. Shares of HSBC Holdings fared comparatively better, closing down 4.2% at $29.38. The new declines came hours after Chancellor of the Exche-
quer George Osborne said capital requirements for British banks were “10 times what they were” but acknowledged market volatility likely would continue. Banking analysts at S&P Global Market Intelligence on Friday downgraded recommendations on Barclays shares to hold and Royal Bank of Scotland stock to sell but issued a buy recommendation for Lloyds Banking Group. London-based senior research manager Julien Jarmoszko said Monday the changes were based on financial market stress, widening credit spreads and concern the banks could face impact from a potential downturn in Britain’s housing sector. “We’re in a period of high negative noise now,” Jarmoszko said. “In that atmosphere, investors can act first and ask questions afterward.” U.S. bank stocks also declined Monday. Shares of JPMorgan Chase closed down 3.3% at $57.61. The New York-based global bank’s stock closed down 6.95% Friday. Bank of America shares fell 6.3% to a $12.18 close, adding to their 7.4% drop Friday. U.S. investors sent Citigroup shares
4.5% lower to close at $38.48, deepening their 9.36% plunge in Friday trading. And shares of Wells Fargo closed down almost 1.5% at $45.01 after they closed nearly 4.6% lower on Friday. Major U.S. investment banks also suffered a second consecutive day of post-“Brexit” losses. Shares of Goldman Sachs closed nearly 1.7% lower at $139.51. Similarly, shares of Morgan Stanley fell 3.7% to close at $23.61. The two banks’ stocks closed down 7.1% and nearly 10.2%, respectively, on Friday. Bank of America, Citigroup and Morgan Stanley are among large U.S. banks whose stocks have experienced rising levels of volatility compared with the market as a whole, Keefe Bruyette & Woods said in a Friday research note. JPMorgan and Wells Fargo number among large banks with the lowest volatility. Noting U.S. banks passed the Federal Reserve Board’s annual financial stress tests last week, the report said the strong balance sheets could create an opportunity for investors on the long side “when global events stabilize.”
Chaos erases $1.3 trillion in U.S. wealth Microsoft takes the biggest hit in market value after U.K. vote Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY
Brexit isn’t just a European problem after all. The United Kingdom’s decision to quit the European Union is costing U.S. investors a pretty penny. U.S.-based companies in the broad Russell 3000, including online advertising company Alphabet, software maker Microsoft and global bank JPMorgan Chase, have suffered a collective loss of $1.3 trillion since Friday’s shocker from the United Kingdom, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. Nearly $300 billion in market
value has been erased just from the 30 most-valuable stocks in the Standard & Poor’s 500, the stocks most commonly found in U.S. investors’ portfolios. The dramatic erasure of market value of big U.S. companies shows the double-edged nature of rising global commerce. The initial Brexit shock shredded $2.1 trillion in global market values on Friday for the biggest one-day market value loss ever, Howard Silverblatt of S&P Dow Jones Indices says. That massive Friday loss was followed by a roughly $1 trillion loss again Monday, bringing cumulative losses to $3 trillion — a record two-day loss, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. U.S. losses “are a bad number,” Silverblatt says. “It’s just not as bad as Europe.” The losses spreading from Europe into U.S. markets are a reflection of the “uncertainty that this could be the thing that drops

the global economy into recession, even though the U.S. looks more robust,” says Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Asset Management Group. These losses highlight that the trouble for U.S. investors is that actions by a nation across the Atlantic can set off global asset re-
pricing that costs U.S. investors serious money and reduces the value of U.S. companies. Microsoft has been the hardest hit of any stock since the Brexit shock, with the technology giant dropping $27.4 billion in market value. That’s a blow that has erased 6.7% of the company’s market value in two trading days, sending shares to $48.43 a share. Tech’s global nature and potential hit to earnings due to the strong U.S. dollar makes it especially vulnerable. Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is the third-hardest-hit stock after Microsoft. The stock’s nearly 5% decline to $668.26 a share cut the company’s market value by $23.1 billion in two days. Apple wasn’t spared, either. The maker of digital gadgets is down 4.2%, pushing the stock close to its low and wiping out $22 billion in market value.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
Britain’s vote to exit the European Union has added to the long list of headwinds that have been hounding U.S. stocks since they posted record highs in May 2015. Before Friday’s “Brexit” referendum, investors were worried about a pricey U.S. stock market unable to break out to new highs. A slowdown in U.S. job growth was on the worry list. Federal Reserve angst was on the rise after the Fed said the U.S. economy would not break out of its subpar 2% growth pace until after 2018. Terrorism, the rise of Donald Trump in the U.S. political scene and plunging government bond yields also gave investors pause. Then the “Brexit” storm hit. Will Britain fall into recession? Is
Facts about America’s investors who use SigFig tracking services:
the EU in danger of eventual disintegration? Will the British pound keep falling, slashing the buying power of people in Britain and hurting investor confidence? “It’s the uncertainty going forward that creates the risk-off mentality,” says Tony Bedikian, managing director of global markets at Citizens Bank. Wall Street also is dealing with the consequences of safe-haven cash flowing into the U.S., which again is pushing up the value of the dollar. The stronger greenback marks a comeback of a negative force Wall Street hoped would dissipate: a hit to earnings of U.S. multinationals and a retreat in the price of U.S.-produced crude. Add in fresh worries about “Brexit’s” impact on a hoped-for second-half corporate earnings comeback and what you have is a market with plenty to hold it back.

Utility stocks, derivatives often are safe havens Q: How can I hide from the market pain? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: The market’s vicious sell-off since the “Brexit” vote is reminding investors stocks are risky. Rushing for safety can be the natural inclination, but often is the wrong choice. There are ways for nervous traders to hide from global disruptions. Buying utility stocks seems to be one of the most popular ways for investors to duck from global mayhem but still stay exposed to the U.S. economy. Most utility stocks have very little business outside the U.S. But most utilities also tend to pay market-beating dividends, which not only is a source of return, but a form of income amid market turbulence. The iShares Global Utilities exchange-traded fund (JXI), which owns a basket of utility stocks, is up nearly 7% this year. On top of that stock price appreciation, the ETF is yielding roughly twice the market at 3.8%. Other traders rush to the derivatives market to find tools to help protect them. You can purchase “protective puts,” which essentially are insurance policies to protect you from downside risk. Yet other traders might just sell their stocks and sit on cash. If you’re this worried, though, it sounds like your portfolio is too risky. It might be time to increase your bond allocation over time to reduce volatility.
Even fast-casual eateries feel heat of slowing economy Whether it was Panera Bread, Shake Shack or even Chipotle Mexican Grill, so-called fast-casual eateries have just kept growing despite the restaurant industry’s ups and downs over the past few years. Now, the once-sizzling category has hit a cold spot. Visits to fast-casual restaurants fell 4% in May compared with the same month last year for the first time since NPD Group

“It’s kind of a red flag when you see everything come to a standstill,” says Bonnie Riggs, restaurant industry analyst for NPD Group. “Things just started to slow down, and it really hit in May.” For years, fast casual has been an industry darling because it addressed some of the issues consumers had about traditional fast food — without the full-service prices. In fast casual, the food is freshly prepared, often right in front of the customer. It occupied an important niche between quick service at the low end and sit-down restaurants at the high

end. But restaurants are starting to have a harder time as consumers pull back. And the traffic slowdown isn’t limited to just fast casual. “We’ve seen a sequential slowdown in the industry since late March,” says Bob Derrington, analyst at Telsey Advisory Group. The pressure has led to rampant discounting in the industry. Fast casual, in particular, has been feeling the effects of some of the meal deals from fast-food chains, like McDonald’s recent “McPick 2” campaign, which offered two menu items for $5. Now some fast casuals may fight
back. Chipotle announced a summer loyalty program Monday, offering a free burrito or other entree for every four purchased. Lower payroll growth, gasoline prices making their way back from the bottom and even uncertainty about the election could have factored into poor restaurant performance in the second quarter, says Matt McGinley, analyst for brokerage Evercore ISI. Some consumers, analysts fear, are hunkering down in their own kitchens. “Consumers are making their collective transition and not eating out as much,” says Efraim Levy, analyst for S&P Capital IQ.

After initially dismissing the critics, Timberlake issued an apology. “I really do feel that we are all one... a human race,” he tweeted early Monday. “I apologize to anyone that felt I was out of turn. I have nothing but love for you and all of us.”

News cycle makes ‘Purge’ film even more timely
Brian Truitt @briantruitt USA TODAY
Which gets your vote as the scarier situation: Armed maniacs running around in George Washington and Abraham Lincoln masks in The Purge: Election Year or cable news coverage of the presidential race? While vampires and slashers are well-worn horror tropes, films also have tapped into politics of the day for terror in the aisles. With the fallout of Brexit, the daily goings-on in Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton and showdowns over gun laws in Congress, real life is ripe to mine for screen fright fests. “A lot of us are afraid of politics — we’re very intimidated by it,” says Sam Zimmerman, a curator for the horror-streaming site Shudder. “The way the world is headed and our greatest fears about it — that people at the top will just tank us, essentially — is perfect for subversive storytelling.” Election Year (in theaters Fri-

day) is a timely third chapter of writer/director James DeMonaco’s Purge series, which revolves around the government allowing all crime — from burglary to murder — to be legal for 12 anarchic hours once a year. In the new film, a senator (Elizabeth Mitchell) runs for the Oval Office on a platform that includes ridding the USA of this annual chaos, and she becomes a target for her proPurge opponents. “It takes time for someone to say, ‘What the (hell) are we doing? We need to stand up against this.’ Then the question becomes, ‘Well, how do we battle this? Do we do that with ideas or do we do that with guns?’ ” says DeMonaco, who wrote the Election Year script in 2014 — way before anyone could have anticipated the polarizing potential of the 2016 election. “I’d like the audience to decide what metaphor I’m playing with about violence in our society,” he says. “But I just didn’t know how

Untangling the tangled Prince estate case is going to take longer than expected, the probate judge indicated in Minnesota Monday. As would-be heirs to Prince Rogers Nelson’s millions and their small army of lawyers (nearly two dozen) huddled in court in Chaska, Minn., for a hearing, Carver County District Judge Kevin Eide said he was in no hurry to decide who can get a piece of the superstar’s fortune. The issue at the hearing is how to determine who is and who is not a relative who is eligible to inherit. Among other matters, DNA tests may be required of claimants under Minnesota law. Eide said it would take a while to make those decisions. And he said he may forward the questions to a higher court for legal
guidance, drawing out the process even longer. At the close of the hearing, he indicated his preliminary ruling won’t come for at least two weeks Prince died at his Paisley Park compound in Carver County outside Minneapolis on April 21, the result of an accidental painkiller overdose. His death is still under investigation by the local sheriff. No will has been found. The estate special administrator, Bremer Trust, examined thousands of boxes of documents in four locations, said David Crosby, attorney for the trust. “We’ve looked under every box lid. … The inquiry is coming to a close very soon,” Crosby said. With no will, it’s up to the judge to preside over the organization of Prince’s estate — believed to be worth hundreds of millions and growing every day — and its distribution to his heirs, not to mention preservation and marketing of his musical legacy. Besides his one full sister, Tyka Nelson, and a half-dozen known half-siblings or their descendants, others claiming to be half-siblings

to Prince or his secret children have come forward. Brian Dillon, an attorney for Tyka Nelson, urged Eide to act quickly. “There is some urgency in determining who are the rightful heirs,” Dillon said. “We are now more than 21⁄2 months out from (Prince’s) death.” The estate faces a deadline in January to pay up to 57% of the total valuation in federal and state taxes; meanwhile, the estate cannot earn revenue from the marketing of Prince’s music until the heirs are named. “Delay can damage this estate. That’s a reality of this business,” said Ken Abdo, who represents three of Prince’s half-siblings. At least some of those claiming to be half-siblings (eligible to inherit under Minnesota law) have named as their mutual parent different men than Prince’s known father, John Nelson, who is deceased. Many would-be heirs have cited Minnesota law to demand that any discussion of their possible relationship to Prince take place behind closed doors. Eide has agreed to those demands.

Kansas no longer in acupuncture minority Legislation allows state to regulate needle work By Mackenzie Clark Twitter: @mclark_ljw
T
he consequences of getting acupuncture from someone who is untrained could be serious, but soon the risk of encountering that situation in Kansas soon will diminish. Lawrence acupuncturist Gina Halsey has been working since 2009 to remove Kansas from the list of five remaining states that do not license the profession. It’s been a long process with a lot of red tape, but in the recent legislative session, the Acupuncture Practice Act finally was approved. “This will be a real protection to the public,” Halsey said, and she listed several reasons for that. l Proper training. Licensing will ensure that anyone who is practicing has completed medical and theoretical training, and has undergone supervised clinical training under experienced clinicians. The bill provides a thorough definition of acupuncture: “the use of needles inserted into the human body by piercing of the skin and related modalities for the assessment, evaluation, prevention, treatment, or correction of any abnormal physiology or pain by means of controlling and regulating the flow and balance of energy in the body and stimulating the body to restore itself to its proper functioning and state of health.” Halsey said it’s crucial for acupuncturists to understand proper needle placement, depth and angles. “Safety is an issue if an untrained or undertrained person is performing acupuncture,” she said. “At the

Those who are certified then must complete continuing education or professional development to maintain that status, Halsey said. “I actually had a person tell me she practiced acupuncture casually, and she hadn’t even completed any acupuncture school,” she said. “So it will be illegal for her to do that after this law goes into effect.” Halsey also said someone who is not properly trained
might encounter a condition that would be better served by going to a medical doctor or emergency room, and they might not even know when to refer patients elsewhere.
l Insurance on both ends. The law will require that acupuncturists hold professional liability insurance, which Halsey said means further protection to the public. This law does not create an insurance mandate, but many health care plans — Halsey said she’s had patients
that have insurance based in another state, for example — will actually cover acupuncture in Kansas now. “Even though our bill doesn’t mandate that the insurance cover acupuncture, there are people who do have benefits who might be more likely to be able to access this now because there will be licensed acupuncturists,” she said. l Opportunity. With the expansion of insurance, more patients may be able to experience acupuncture for the first time, as Halsey did when she was 19. She was diagnosed with leukemia and was receiving chemotherapy, but one of the side effects of her medications was an irregular heartbeat. She decided to try acupuncture and it solved the problem, she said. Please see NEEDLE, page 2C
Temporary blindness linked to one-eyed phone reading By Maria Cheng Associated Press
London — Warning: Looking at your smartphone while lying in bed at night could wreak havoc on your vision. Two women went temporarily blind from constantly checking their phones in the dark, say doctors who are now alerting others to the unusual phenomenon. The solution: Make sure to use both eyes when looking at your smartphone screen in the dark. In Thursday’s New England Journal of Medicine, doctors detailed the cases of the two women, ages 22 and
40, who experienced “transient smartphone blindness” for months. The women complained of recurring episodes of temporary vision loss for up to 15 minutes. They were subjected to a variety of medical exams, MRI scans and heart tests. Yet doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with them to explain the problem. But minutes after walking into an eye specialist’s office, the mystery was solved. “I simply asked them, ‘What exactly were you doing when this happened?’” recalled Dr. Gordon Plant of Moorfield’s Eye Hospital in London.
He explained that both women typically looked at their smartphones with only one eye while resting on their side in bed in the dark — their other eye was covered by the pillow. “So you have one eye adapted to the light because it’s looking at the phone and the other eye is adapted to the dark,” he said. When they put their phone down, they couldn’t see with the phone eye. That’s because “it’s taking
many minutes to catch up to the other eye that’s adapted to the dark,” Plant said. He said the temporary blindness was ultimately harmless, and easily avoidable, if people stuck to looking at their smartphones with both eyes. One of the women was relieved the short-term blindness didn’t signal a more serious problem like an imminent stroke. He said the second woman was more skeptical and kept a rigorous monthslong
diary tracking her fleeting vision loss before she finally believed him. But she couldn’t stop checking her phone for messages from bed, he said. Dr. Rahul Khurana, a spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, called it a fascinating hypothesis but doubted whether many smartphone users would experience the phenomenon. Khurana, who acknowledged that he’s an avid cellphone user, said that he and his wife tried to recreate the scenario on a recent evening, but had difficulty checking their phones with only one eye.
BRIEFLY Grant helps Just Food Just Food recently added commercial coolers through a LiveWell Community Wellness Grant from the Douglas County Community Foundation. Executive Director Elizabeth Keever said larger, higher-grade coolers were needed to handle the nearly 2,000 pounds of food the community food bank recovers each day. Previously, Just Food used regular refrigerators. “They were at 60 degrees all of the time because we were getting 200 people here a day,” Keever said. “If you open and shut those refrigerators constantly, the food is not safe.” The new commercial coolers are intended to be open and have glass doors so people can shop visually to see what they want before opening the door, Keever said. “Most food pantries in town are stocked with canned goods, so one of the unique things about Just Food and its recovery program is people can get a box of salad or hummus,” she said. “It stores some of the healthiest food that people are able to get.” For more information about Just Food, call 856-7030 or visit justfoodks.org.
Kansas bicycle map updated Whether you want to see designated bike routes in 19 cities in Kansas, traffic volumes along state routes or which county routes are paved, the new 2016-17 Kansas bicycle map will help bicycle riders plan their trips. “This map provides so much information that is specifically geared toward bicyclists,” said Matt Messina, bicycle and pedestrian coordinator for the Kansas Department of Transportation. “Its contents include bicycling statutes, safety tips, suggested routes, future projects and more.” The highways available for bicycles are color-coded by traffic volume. No traffic volumes are shown on the map on interstate routes as bicycling on interstates in Kansas is against the law. New features to this year’s map include the Land and Sky Scenic Byway in the western part of the state and the inclusion of 487 miles of U.S. Bicycle Route 76 (USBR 76), which was designated in Kansas last fall. Pittsburg’s city inset was also added to the back of the map. Maps are available free of charge and can be requested by emailing bikeped@ ksdot.org or calling 296-8593.

Study: 1 in 5 trauma deaths preventable By Lauran Neergaard Associated Press
Washington — Up to 1 in 5 people may be dying unnecessarily from car crashes, gunshots or other injuries, a stark conclusion from government advisers who say where you live shouldn't determine if you survive. The findings take on new urgency amid the increasing threat of mass casualties like the massacre in Orlando. The Orlando shooting happened just blocks from a major trauma care hospital, an accident of geography that undoubtedly saved lives. But a recent call to action found that swaths of the country don't have fast access to top care, and it urges establishing a national system that puts the military's battlefield expertise to work at home. The ultimate goal: Zero preventable deaths after injury, and minimizing disability among survivors, said the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine report. Because no one organiza-

“I was really impressed, and after that I would try acupuncture for any little thing that came up and just loved how it helped me to feel balanced, naturally, without the use of any kind of medications,” she said. According to the NCCAOM, the World Health Organization recognizes acupuncture and Oriental medicine as effective for a wide variety of more than 40 common ailments. Some interesting items from the organization’s list include
tion is in charge of trauma care in America, the highranking advisers called on the White House to lead the effort, but they also said local and state improvements could begin immediately. “The meter is running on these preventable deaths,” said Dr. Donald Berwick of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, who chaired the NAS committee. Trauma is the leading cause of death for Americans 45 and younger, killing nearly 148,000 people in 2014 alone and costing an estimated $670 billion in medical expenses and lost productivity. The report found a patchwork of results, from emergency medical systems — the often-volunteer first responders — that are considered more as transporters than health providers, to death rates that vary twofold between the best- and worst-performing trauma centers. Yet the biggest opportunity to save lives occurs well before reaching a doctor. About half of deaths occur at the scene of the injury or the common cold, weight control, chronic fatigue syndrome, hiccups, injuries from auto accidents, infertility and gingivitis. “Sometimes people will use (acupuncture) in conjunction with medicine and sometimes people try it before resorting to a medication that has other side effects, and it’s just wonderful for that,” Halsey said. The Acupuncture Practice Act was rolled into House Bill 2615, which also impacts several other health care professionals such as physical therapists, behavioral scientists and midwives. Sen. Michael O’Donnell, a Wichita Republican,
en route to the hospital. “The answer’s always been to drive faster or fly faster. We’re almost at the limit of that. Minutes really do count in these critically ill patients. But we can do things to stop bleeding, resuscitate better, while we’re flying or driving faster,” said panelist Dr. John Holcomb, a trauma surgeon and retired Army colonel now at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston. Where the military comes in: The percentage of wounded service members who died of their injuries in Afghanistan decreased by nearly half between 2005 and 2013, the report found. The improvement resulted from systematic study of battlefield deaths that led to new policies — such as equipping soldiers with tourniquets so the wounded didn’t have to hope a medic was nearby in time to stop catastrophic bleeding. Military findings suggest about 20 percent of deaths could be prevented with optimal care, Holcomb said. That translates into “81 introduced the bill and said Sen. Molly Baumgardner, a Republican from Johnson County, also championed the legislation. It was approved unanimously in the Senate, and on a vote of 115 to 7 in the House, on May 13. O’Donnell said he favored the act as probusiness legislation, as it removes barriers for acupuncturists to practice as licensed professionals in the state. “I just believe we need more health care options in the state of Kansas,” he said. “Acupuncture has been around for thousands of years, through many different cultures, and I think that we need people to be
patients a day dying in the United States — every day — that are potentially preventable,” he said. The military still needs improvement, too, the panel said: Nearly 1,000 battlefield deaths between 2001 and 2011 were from potentially survivable injuries. One worry is that hard-won lessons will be lost, leading the panel to recommend that military surgeons keep their skills sharp by doing some work in civilian trauma centers between combat tours. Whether in combat or civilian life, hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable trauma death. Panelist James Robinson, assistant chief at the Denver Health EMS, said that’s one reason bystanders begin “the chain of survival.” There’s an urgent need for improvement, Berwick said. “The shadow of Orlando is on everything we’re doing today. Everything we’re learning about injuries in the battlefield has a lot to do with our preparedness and ability to respond to mass casualties,” he said. able to practice the art of acupuncture.” The law goes into effect Friday, and the state Board of Healing Arts will likely take another year to establish rules and regulations. Starting July 1, 2017, all acupuncturists will be regulated in Kansas. Patients can look for “L. Ac.” for Licensed Acupuncturist to indicate that a provider has met national and state professional standards. Alaska, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota are the four remaining states that do not license acupuncturists. — WellCommons reporter Mackenzie Clark can be reached at 832-7198 or mclark@ljworld.com.

Dear Annie: Several years ago, our son lived with a very immature young woman. We tried to make her feel welcome, but she had no interest in getting to know us. The only thing she ever asked was how much our son would inherit. She then had an affair. Our son asked whether he should leave her. My husband said yes, but I told my son that people make mistakes and it was his decision. He stayed. A few months later, she was worried he might leave, so she lied about using the pill and got pregnant. The baby was christened and baptized with only her family present. We saw the photos on Facebook. When they got married shortly after, they never said a word to us.

We decided not to hold a grudge. We bought a house where they could live for $200 a month in rent, and gave them $40,000 to furnish it. Our new daughter-inlaw said we should let them live there rentfree and they stopped paying rent. They also didn’t take care of the house. So we sold it, and when we didn’t give them the proceeds, she told everyone that we were ter-
Another day at the ‘Zoo’ The summer silly season is upon us. Based on one of James Patterson’s thousands of novels, “Zoo” (8 p.m., CBS, TV-14) returns for a second season of shocking animal behavior. OK, Patterson has “only” written 130 novels! “Zoo” is very much a CBS series — it sticks to winning formulas. The scenery and the cast are generally as good-looking as the scenario is frightening. “Zoo” won’t strain anybody’s gray matter. It’s meant as far-fetched fun, consistent in taking its goofy premise as seriously as possible. O “Zoo” will seem like a PBS documentary compared to “Dead of Summer” (8 p.m., Freeform, TV-14). It’s the umpteenth teen drama set at a summer camp with a tragic, haunted history. What could go wrong? Elizabeth Lail (“Once Upon a Time”) stars as the pretty but brittle Amy, who arrives as the “new” counselor at Camp Stillwater. All of the other 20-something counselors attended the camp back in the day, before it closed for reasons unspoken. Amy’s colleagues are like the cast of a slasher movie or participants on a reality show. We’ve seen them all before: the stud, the preppy, the mean girl, the gay guy, the freak and the hot girl. They’re not fully formed personalities but stereotypes and fodder for whomever, or whatever, is going to eliminate them one-by-one over a long weird summer. You know you’re in murky territory when Elizabeth Mitchell from “Lost” shows up. She’s the fetching owner of the camp, who combines strange “come hither” glances at some of the male counselors with a detached laissez-faire attitude toward grisly events. She doesn’t think there’s anything amiss when Amy finds a deer ritually slaughtered near her cabin. And when Amy finds a dead body in the lake? That’s just another day at Camp Stillwater. It’s the day we get to meet the handsome Deputy Sykes (Alberto Frezza), who looks young enough to bunk up. There’s even a creepy groundskeeper (Darren Moore). He’s quick to frighten Amy and tell her she doesn’t belong at Stillwater. “The longer you stay, the worse it’s going to get!” he warns. Funny, I feel the same way about watching “Dead of Summer.”
Tonight’s other highlights O Swimming finals unfold at the U.S. Olympic Trials (7 p.m., NBC). O Auditions continue on “America’s Got Talent” (8 p.m., NBC). O Buck throws a pre-incarceration party for Miles on “Uncle Buck” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-PG).
rible people and had stolen their money. They now have two children and a third on the way. We are not allowed to see the grandchildren. Our son calls us once a month, but he’s afraid to tell his wife. We just wrote a new will and are giving them nothing. We haven’t told our son this, but we’ve told our other children that they can give their brother a share if they choose. But his wife has also cut off contact with the siblings, as well as our son’s grandparents. It’s been five years. We would still welcome her, but we aren’t holding our breath. Our son says he’s OK with this. He says he’s not abused. Sometimes there is no happy ending. — Resigned to Our Situation
JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS
For Tuesday, June 28: This year you easily could stumble into one power play after another. You might decide that you no longer want to be involved in such situations. As a result, you will look for ways to pull yourself out of them. The only way to win a power play is to not play. If you are single, you are presently in a period where your Romeo or Juliet could walk right into your life. You might discover that a strong bond exists there. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy hanging out together this summer. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ You feel intensely; therefore you might decide to stand up to the status quo. Tonight: Decide to surprise a friend. Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++ What you are visualizing might not be what you want. Don’t jump the gun. Tonight: Keep information hush-hush for now. Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You might be put off by what you perceive as someone’s demands. Avoid a power play. Tonight: Where the party is. Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ Be ready to step up to the plate. Others need you to demonstrate leadership. Tonight: A must appearance. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Reach out for more
Dear Resigned: We are so sorry your son married such an unkind, immature person. Also, that he is too cowardly to take a stand, fearful that she might leave. But that is highly unlikely. We wonder how your daughter-in-law would react if she learned that you might reconsider including them in your will if you were allowed to spend time with the grandchildren. She sounds mercenary enough to think about it. It’s good that you have other children to lean on. Our condolences.

Magley breathes new life into NBL The pressures of running a professional sports league can turn a commissioner into a suspicious robot devoid of humor and fluent in corporate-speak. And then there is David Magley, commissioner of the National Basketball League of Canada and a former Kansas University basketball player coached by Ted Owens. Magley “Normally you want the face of the league to be young and good-looking,” Magley said in a Monday night phone interview from Bradenton, Fla., his offseason home. “I’m an old and fat commissioner. Not a pretty face for a league. I look like an aging Al Bundy.” Magley, 56, happens to have a rich basketball tradition — Mr. Indiana as a senior in high school, Academic All-American as a senior at Kansas — and a fertile business mind. When the league was in crisis, the owners turned to Magley, figuring that combination could pump some life into it. Magley, whose first year in the NBL of Canada was as coach of the Brampton A’s, prefers to tell another version of how he ended up in the league’s top position. “We were up 3-1 in the semifinals, and we lost,” Magley said. “So the owner said, ‘I think you need to be the commissioner.’” He was joking, which Oklahoma City Thunder coach Billy Donovan and Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr would be glad to hear. The eight-team professional league reached a low point when Game 7 in 2015 never was played. “Two teams showed up at the same time for a shoot-around for Game 7, a fight broke out, one team refused to play, and it ended up being a forfeit,” Magley said. “It was scary. The league was in a perilous position.” Magley cited a parable in the Bible — two women claiming to be the mother of one baby, King Solomon saying the only fair way to solve the dispute was to cut the baby in half, which caused one woman to cry out to give the baby to the other woman, thus revealing herself as the real mother — as an analogy for what happened next. “Everybody wanted to win so badly that they were tearing each other apart,” Magley said. “After that, they all decided to work together.” And Magley was the one brokering the peace for the league that will expand to 10 teams for next season. “Not a single punch was thrown this season, and we had a great seven-game

FREE STATE HIGH QUARTERBACK DALLAS CRITTENDEN DROPS BACK TO PASS during a Baker University football camp on June 14 at Lawrence High.
Hayden transfer taking snaps at QB By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com
When Free State High football coach Bob Lisher announced an open competition for quarterback at the beginning of the summer, Dallas Crittenden wasn’t worried. Actually, Crittenden was excited. He thought the competition would bring out the best in him. Nearly a month into summer workouts with a few teams camps, Crittenden has emerged as the likely starting quarterback for the upcoming season. The senior transfer from Topeka Hayden led
the Wildcats to the Class 4A-I state semifinals last year, throwing for 1,385 yards and 13 touchdowns with a 61 percent completion rate. “He’s grown quite a bit,” Lisher said of Crittenden. “He’s still learning. We have a lot of stuff that he hasn’t done before. Sometimes he looks really, really good. Sometimes he doesn’t look so good. But that’s expected when you come out from a different offense.” Crittenden won’t be handed the starting job — Lisher said the competition will continue in the fall — but Crittenden has taken most of the snaps with the first-
team offense in practices and scrimmages. Free State junior Gage Foster, who was the school’s backup quarterback last season, works with the secondteam offense and plays running back on the first team. Sophomore Jordan Preston has worked primarily with the junior-varsity offense, receiving a full slate of repetitions. Crittenden has impressed his teammates with his arm. The 5-foot-10 right-hander is capable of throwing on the run and firing the ball with enough zip to squeeze it into tight areas. Asked if he thinks his
height is a disadvantage, Crittenden breaks into a smile and replies with a quote from one of his favorite quarterbacks, “Drew Brees said, ‘There’s no such thing as being too short for quarterback.’” One of the reasons Crittenden still has to earn the job completely is because he is still adjusting into the offense. At Hayden, he was primarily under center in the wing-T offense and described himself as a pocket passer. Now, he’ll be taking snaps out of the shotgun. That Please see FIREBIRDS, page 3D
MSU’s Newman visits Lawrence today By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
As expected, five-star guard Malik Newman ended up being a one-and-done at Mississippi State, just not the way the basketball world envisioned. Newman, a 6-foot-3, 190-pounder from Jackson, Miss., who arrived at MSU as Rivals.com’s No. 8-rated player in the recruiting Class of 2015, declared for the 2016 NBA Draft after averaging 11.3 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists for the (14-17) Bulldogs. After receiving so-so reviews at the NBA Combine and in individual workouts with the Chicago Bulls, Milwaukee Bucks, Brooklyn Nets and New York Knicks, he pulled his name out of Please see KEEGAN, page 3D the draft, then promptly an-
nounced plans to transfer from the SEC school. Newman — who chose MSU over Kentucky, Kansas University and North Carolina State the first time around — today as a prospective transfer begins his fifth and final official recruiting visit to KU. He already has trekked to Oregon, Western Kentucky, Miami and N.C. State. “Injuries (turf toe, back) slowed Malik down this year,” ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla told Zagsblog.com. “He had a couple moments of brilliance at the Combine (where he averaged 6.5 points and 1.0 assists in two games), but I think it’s best to put together a solid sophomore season.” Newman — he hit 39.1 Chuck Burton/AP File Photo percent of his shots last season (37.9 percent from IN THIS OCT. 21, 2015, PHOTO, MISSISSIPPI STATE’S MALIK NEWMAN LISTENS TO A QUESTION during the Southeastern Conference men’s basketball media day in Please see HOOPS, page 3D Charlotte, N.C.

Governor: Games could be ‘failure’ Rio de Janeiro (ap) — Rio de Janeiro’s acting governor warned Monday that the Olympic Games could be a “big failure,” because of budget shortfalls that threaten to compromise security and mobility during the games. In an interview with Rio’s O Globo daily, Francisco Dornelles said the state is still awaiting a 2.9 billion Brazilian real ($860 million) payout from the federal government aimed at shoring up state coffers ahead of the Aug. 5-21 event. The funds were allocated last week but have not yet reached the state, and Dornelles warned that without them, police patrols may grind to a halt by the end of the week, for lack of gas money. “How are people going to feel protected in a city without security,” Dornelles was quoted as asking. “I’m optimistic about the games, but I have to show reality,” he said. “We can have a great Olympics, but if some steps aren’t taken, it can be a big failure.” Rio has been particularly hard-hit by the recession besetting Brazil, which saw the economy shrink by around 4 percent last year and joblessness spike. The state is highly reliant on sinking oil royalties, and prior governments awarded billions in tax exemptions that resulted in near-empty coffers. Another worrying issue for Dornelles is the metro line that was meant to ferry tourists to the main Olympic venue in the far-western Rio area of Barra da Tijuca. Promised for late last year, the metro is still not ready. A nearly 1 billion real ($290 million) federal loan aimed at finishing the project has also not yet been released. “I’ve said that without security and without the metro there will be difficulties,” Dornelles was quoted as saying. He also called the situation in the state’s health care system “calamitous,” and said the policy of deferring or paying state workers’ salaries in installments “is a form of slave labor.” Formerly Rio’s vice governor, 81-year-old Dornelles was thrust into the hot seat after Rio Governor Luiz Fernando Pezao was diagnosed with nonHodgkin’s lymphoma and took medical leave earlier this year. Asked how it’s been to deal with the state’s financial crisis, Dornelles responded, “for me, it’s been a mess.” “I’d already decided to end my political career,” he said, adding he’d only accepted the offer to become Pezao’s running mate because he thought he’d only have to take over “from time to time.” “And suddenly this bomb fell into my hands,” he said. Rio Mayor Eduardo Paes last week went on a PR offensive, insisting the Olympics were not responsible for the state or federal financial debacles. Paes insisted the state and federal governments’ investment in the games were minimal, and that the city — which he said had shouldered the lion’s share of responsibility for the event — was in good financial health.

BRITAIN’S MARCUS WILLIS, RANKED NO. 772 IN THE WORLD, celebrates his 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 victory over 54th-ranked Ricardas Berankis on Day One of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships on Monday in London.
Teacher claims stunning Wimbledon victory London — Marcus Willis originally was scheduled to spend Monday teaching tennis to a group of 5-to-10-year-old kids, among others, at Warwick Boat Club in central England. Instead, Willis wound up with grander, and more lucrative, plans: playing — and winning! — a match at Wimbledon. And Wednesday, Willis’ students will need to find a substitute yet again, because he will be busy at the All England Club, standing across the net from none other than Roger Federer in the second round. Now there’s something to brag about to friends: “The guy who coaches me is playing Federer at Wimbledon.” Quite surreal, to choose the pitch-perfect word Willis used more than once to describe the series of events that brought him to this point. He is, after all, a 25-year-old with admittedly something of a beer gut who resides with his parents — “Living the dream,” Willis joked — makes about $40 an hour for giving tennis lessons when he’s not competing at local club tournaments, is ranked 772nd and never had played a tour-level match until Monday. His 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 victory over 54th-ranked Ricardo Berankis before a wildly supportive and singing crowd of fellow Brits at tiny Court 17 was by far the most intriguing development on Day 1 of the grass-court Grand Slam tournament. There were ho-hum straight-set victories for past champions Federer, Novak Djokovic and Venus Williams, for example, and a halfdozen exits by lower-seeded players. Willis truly made news, becoming the worstranked qualifier to reach the second round at any major since No. 923 Jared Palmer at the 1988 U.S. Open. “One of the best stories in a long time in our sport,” said Federer, who beat Guido Pella 7-6 (5), 7-6 (3), 6-3 in his return to Grand Slam tennis after missing the French Open with a bad back. Willis’ take on his surprising success: “This doesn’t happen, really.” So how DID it happen? As a teen, Willis appeared to be an up-andcoming junior, reaching the third round of the Wimbledon boys’ tournament in 2007 and 2008, but injuries and what he describes as a lack of dedication derailed his career. “Tore my hamstring twice. Hurt my knee earlier this year. Had a bit of a rough phase. I was down, struggling to get out of bed in the morning,” Willis said. “I was a bit of a loser. I was overweight,” he said. “I just looked myself in the mirror (and) said, ‘You’re better than this.’” He says he was close to abandoning hope of a pro career, considering a move to Philadelphia to teach tennis, when his new girlfriend told him to keep trying to play. “I met the girl. She told me not to (quit), so I didn’t,” Willis said with a smile. “Do what I’m told.” Fast-forward to this month, when he was the last man invited to participate in a playoff for British players to earn a wild card into Wimbledon qualifying. Willis won three matches there, then another three in qualifying to get into the main draw. And then the left-handed serve-and-volleyer defeated Berankis by saving 19 of 20 break points and hitting 14 aces while using what
LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps
he describes as an “unorthodox” mix of spins. Afterward, Willis raced to the stands to kiss his girlfriend before being swallowed by a group hug from a bunch of longtime friends. By getting to the second round, Willis is guaranteed at least 50,000 pounds (about $65,000). Not bad for someone whose prize money in 2016 had been about $350 — and that figure includes singles and doubles. His career earnings when he arrived at Wimbledon were under $100,000. “I’ve got to understand it’s not going to be like this every week. The reality of the tour — it’s brutal. It’s cutthroat,” Willis said. “I want to be a top-100 tennis player. I want this, week-in and week-out. It’s going to take a lot of hard work, and I’ve got a lot of improving to do as well.” Next up is Federer, whose record 17 Grand Slam titles include a record-tying seven at the All England Club. “I’m not sure he can play on grass,” Willis said with a perfect deadpan delivery. Then he continued: “I get to play on a stadium court. This is what I dreamed of when I was younger. I’m going to go out there and try to win the tennis match. I probably won’t. I might not.” Sure. But given all that’s gone on for Willis lately, who’s to say?

Arizona wins opener, 3-0 Omaha, Neb. — JC Cloney pitched a fourhitter, and Ryan Aguilar drove in two runs, leading Arizona to a 3-0 victory over Coastal Carolina in Game 1 of the College World Series finals on Monday night. The Wildcats (49-22) can wrap up their second national championship in five years with a win today. Cloney extended his scoreless innings streak at the CWS to 16.

Messi asked to reconsider Buenos Aires, Argentina — Some fans, players, and even Argentina’s president want Lionel Messi to reconsider. Other supporters on Monday were simply sad that he’s quitting the national team. Messi shocked his native country with his abrupt resignation from international soccer after Chile defeated Argentina 4-2 on penalties after a 0-0 draw on Sunday. “The national team is over for me,” Messi told the Argentine network TyC Sports. “It’s been four finals, it’s not meant for me. I tried. It was the thing I wanted the most, but I couldn’t get it, so I think it’s over.” Messi lifted Argentina’s first penalty kick over the crossbar, setting the stage for another loss in a final. Messi and Argentina lost to Brazil in the 2007 Copa final and to Germany in extra time in the 2014 World Cup final. They lost last year’s Copa final to host Chile on penalty kicks after a 0-0 draw.

Duffy pitches career-best eight innings in KC victory Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — There have been plenty of times over the years when Royals pitcher Danny Duffy would give up a first-inning home run, or fall into a big early hole, and it would cause everything else to slowly unravel. The left-hander showed Monday night just how much he has matured. After serving up Matt Holliday’s two-run shot in the first, Duffy settled in to go eight innings while striking out eight without a walk, sending Kansas City to a 6-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a four-game, two-city series between crossstate rivals. “I think no walks is more of a win for me than anything, outside of the team winning,” said Duffy, who had gone eight innings just once before. “I don’t know. Nothing fazes me anymore.” Kendrys Morales went 4-for-4 and drove in two runs, and Eric Hosmer also had a pair of RBIs as the Royals roughed up Adam Wainwright (6-5) to snap a four-game losing streak to the Cardinals. The Royals scored all their runs with two outs. “We have a little bit of a reputation for that,” manager Ned Yost said, “and it showed up.” Wainwright wasted no time coughing up the lead Holliday had given him, loading the bases for Morales in the first inning. The big designated hitter lined a single to right over a shifted infield to tie the game. Kansas City pulled

Logan Stutz played at Butler County Community College and Washburn University. “As commissioner, I get to the games an hourand-a-half before tipoff, and I’ll shake hands and talk with the fans, ask them for suggestions,” Magley said. “Or I’ll sit down and talk to the players. It’s fun to talk to the players from Kansas. They give you the Rock Chalk and ask what it was like when I played. Lot of respect there. It’s pretty cool.” If a KU player asks what it will take to get to the NBA, Magley might even share wisdom passed along to him from Darnell Valentine, his former AllAmerican teammate. “My first time in the fieldhouse, I’m playing a pickup game, and when
we got done, Darnell went on the line and started running,” Magley remembered. “I went and asked my other roommate, Tony Guy, ‘Is he in trouble?’ Tony said, ‘No.’ I’m looking around the fieldhouse, and coach is not there to see it. Why would anybody run line drills if nobody is there to see it?” He approached Valentine and asked: “Are you in trouble?” Valentine: “No, I’ve got someplace to go.” Magley: “Where?” Valentine: “The NBA.” Magley: “You’re only a sophomore. Why are you doing this now?” Valentine: “That’s why I’m going there and you’re not.” That conversation, Magley said, changed his work ethic. “After that, I started working harder, got into shape, took things much more seriously,” Magley said. “I thought I was a hard worker coming out of high school. Darnell was the hardest worker I’ve ever been around.” He must have rubbed off on Magley, who said he hasn’t taken a day off since he took the commissioner’s job May 28, 2015.

ahead for good in the second, stringing together five singles and a double while batting through the order. Lorenzo Cain provided the lead with a sharp single up the middle, Hosmer extended it with his bounding double down the right-field line, and Salvador Perez added an RBI single to make it 6-2. “It’s tough. You have to tip your hat, really. They did a real nice job with two strikes and two outs,” said Wainwright, who had been 4-0 in six career starts at Kauffman Stadium. “I had two-strike counts on a lot of those guys that had two-out hits,” he said. “I made some good pitches sometimes that they hit, but not great pitches. Not exactly where I wanted them.” Wainwright began making better pitches
eventually, retiring 10 of his final 11 batters. But the damage had been done, and he was pulled after five innings and 102 pitches. It was the third time this season the three-time AllStar has allowed at least six runs in a start, though only four were earned. Meanwhile, Duffy was using pinpoint control to breeze through a lineup that scored 11 runs the previous day against Seattle. He retired his final seven batters, with nobody getting past second after the first inning. “He gave up that tworun homer in the first inning on a pitch he tried to get in,” Yost said. “From there, just a great, great effort by Danny. Just a very solid effort.”

means new footwork, new reads and new responsibilities. He will also run more than he has ever before. “I wasn’t really the quickest last year,” Crittenden said. “I kind of just mainly tried to stay in the pocket and throw the ball. This year, I’m going to try to expand my limits a little bit and try running the ball way more than I did last year.” Lisher added: “He’s very capable of running. He’s fast enough, and he’s quick, so he can do it. It’s a matter of getting comfortable making the read from the gun and keeping the ball when he needs to and getting it to the right person when he needs to.” Crittenden said he
transferred to Free State during the last semester between February and March because of family reasons. A former swimmer, Crittenden was glad his move into the Lawrence area was before the summer. It helped him meet his teammates and become more comfortable. “Just getting to meet the guys and bond with them a little bit,” Crittenden said. “Just pick up chemistry with them. It’s been really great. Had a great time doing it.” Crittenden is looking forward to competing at the 6A level, a jump up in competition. He played a couple of large-class schools last season, but he enjoys the increased “speed of the game.” “He’s making improvement,” Lisher said. “It’s not like he’s not there. He’s doing a pretty good job. But we expect better and he will get better.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP
Bryant’s record day lifts Cubs The Associated Press
National League Cubs 11, Reds 8 Cincinnati — Kris Bryant became the first major-leaguer to hit three homers and two doubles in a game, and Jake Arrieta added a solo shot in the ballpark where he threw a no-hitter in April, leading the Cubs over Cincinnati on Monday night. The Cubs pulled out of their 1-6 slide behind a tandem that has had some huge moments in Cincinnati. Arrieta (12-2) threw his second career no-hitter on April 21 during a 16-0 win over the Reds. Bryant led the way with two homers in that game, including a grand slam that gave him a career-high six RBIs. Arrieta struggled in his return to Cincinnati, giving up a season-high five runs in five innings, but Bryant drove in six again to back the right-hander. Bryant’s 16 total bases were a Cubs record, and his five hits marked a career high. Bryant homered twice off Dan Straily (4-5) and once against Ross Ohlendorf, who also gave up a homer to Anthony Rizzo. Arrieta hit an oppositefield drive. The reigning NL Cy Young Award winner became the league’s first 12-game winner despite his worst outing of the season.

Dodgers 5, Pirates 4 Pittsburgh — A.J.

Scott Kazmir (6-3), who entered with an 11.17 ERA at PNC Park, won despite allowing four runs, four hits and four walks in five innings. Kenley Jansen, the Dodgers’ sixth pitcher, got four outs for his 22nd save in 25 chances. Francisco Liriano (4-8) led by four runs early and took a two-hitter and a 4-1 lead into the fifth, when he was chased by Yasiel Puig’s two-run single.

THE CUBS’ KRIS BRYANT CELEBRATES IN THE DUGOUT after scoring on an RBI sacrifice fly by Miguel Montero in the first inning of the Cubs’ 11-8 victory over the Reds on Monday in Cincinnati. Bryant became the first major-leaguer to hit three home runs and two doubles in a game. Nationals 11, Mets 4 Washington — Ben Revere had four hits and three steals as Washington handed Noah Syndergaard his first loss in more than a month, beating New York in the opener of a three-game series between NL East rivals. Nationals starter Joe Ross (7-4) gave up four early runs, then retired 11 of his last 12 batters. Anthony Rendon had three RBIs for Washington. The Nationals increased their lead over idle Miami to 31⁄2 games, while the Mets are four games back. The Nationals stole six bases, matching their most since the franchise moved to Washington in 2005. Five steals came against Syndergaard (8-3), who had won six consecutive decisions and had not lost since May 6.

Phillies 8, Diamondbacks 0 Phoenix — Vince Velasquez threw five strong innings in his return from the disabled list, and Philadelphia opened a three-game series in Arizona with a rout.

Interleague Indians 8, Braves 3 Atlanta — Lonnie Chisenhall hit a three-run homer, Trevor Bauer (62) gave up two runs in six innings, and Cleveland beat Atlanta for its 10th straight win. Jason Kipnis added a home run in the ninth. The AL Central-leading Indians extended the majors’ longest winning streak of the season. It is Cleveland’s longest run since closing the 2013 regular season with 10 straight wins. The Indians have outscored opponents 68-21 and hit 21 homers during the streak. They had 14 hits and scored at least six runs for the seventh straight game. Chisenhall homered in the fourth off Tyrell Jenkins (0-1). He relieved Braves rookie John Gant, who exited in the third with a left oblique strain.

Rockies 9, Blue Jays 5 Denver — Carlos Gonzalez hit a three-run homer, Jon Gray tossed seven solid innings, and the Rockies beat Toronto to spoil Troy Tulowitzki’s return to Colorado. Tulowitzki went 0-for-4 in his first game at Coors Field since Toronto acquired him from the Rockies last July 27. He received a standing ovation when he batted in the second inning. He stepped out of the batter’s box and doffed his helmet to the 36,491 fans. Edwin Encarnacion homered twice and Devon Travis also went deep for the Blue Jays. Gray (5-3) allowed four runs and struck out eight. Colorado rallied for six runs in the seventh off three relievers. Drew Storen (1-3) hit two straight batters with pitches ahead of Nolan Arenado’s two-run single.
