Codes enforcement removes
illegally placed road signs
Inside Today

Banner Senior Staff Writer
Djokovic finally
wins French Open
Serbia’s Novak Djokovic
broke his French Open drought
and won his fourth consecutive
major by defeating Andy Murray
Sunday in Paris. The Los
Angeles Dodgers played long
ball to dominate in a win over
the Atlanta Braves. Due to rain,
the Sunday NASCAR race in
Long Pond, Pa., was rescheduled for today at noon. See
Sports, Pages 11-13.
Cleveland may look just a little
less cluttered today after Cleveland
Codes Enforcement removed illegally placed signs last week.
The sign sweep removes signs
from the road right of ways and
utility poles, which are listed as off
limits for yard sale, political advertisements and all other signs in the
city ordinance.
Codes Enforcement Officer Joel
Prince said the city gives a warning
on the first offense, but the second
offense carries a hefty fine of $141
per sign.
He said utility poles usually
mark the right of way on a road.
Right of way is a portion of land
near a road owned by the city,
county or state.

Prince said the four codes offiALLEN JOHNSON removes a sign from the road right of way during a Codes Enforcement sweep of the area for illegally placed signs. cers are always on the lookout for
sign violations as they respond to
issues and patrol, but specific
times are set aside to search the
entire city for sign violations about
eight to 10 times a year.
Signs that are confiscated can be
picked up a the Codes Enforcement
Office at 474 Second St. S.E.
“That is when they will receive a
copy of the ordinance, so th they
understand where they can place
the sign, and we tell them if they
need help, our help, we will come
out and show them proper placement of a sign,” Prince said.
Some larger signs also require a
permit from the city building
department.
Prince said signs are prohibited
on the utility poles “for the safety of
the utility workers.”
“Everything really needs to be on
private property with the property
owner’s permission,” Prince said.
He emphasized the city will not
go on to private property to remove
a sign.
“We are really out here for the
safety of the motorists. We don’t
want a sight obstruction,” Prince
said.
Those who put out yard sale
signs need to make sure they are
placing them in legally permitted
places and take them down once
the yard sale is over.
Each time a sign is found in the
road right of way, the officer takes
a photo of it. When possible, a letter
is sent to the individual or business
listed on the sign letting them know
they can go get their sign.
Prince said the office usually
keeps the signs for three to six
months.
The first time this happens, the
person receives a copy of the ordinance and is asked to sign something saying they received one. If it
happens again, the person will be
issued a citation.
Prince said the fines can be contested in city court.

THE REMEMBER THE REMOvAL Bike Ride passed through Red Clay State Historic Park on Sunday evening. The
riders, members of the Cherokee Nation, began their journey along the northern route of the Trail of Tears in New Echota,
Ga., and will arrive at their final destination in Tahlequah, Okla., on June 23. Tahlequah became the Cherokee Nation’s
capital after 16,000 Cherokees were forced from their homes in the summer of 1838 as a part of the Indian Removal Act,
which was passed by Congress in 1830. As a result, 4,000 Cherokees died along the Trail of Tears due to starvation, disease and exposure. The Removal Riders are to visit the historic Blythe Ferry area and the Cherokee Removal Memorial
Park in Birchwood today.

Police have very visible
presence, low crime rate
By ALLEN MINCEY
Banner Staff Writer
With only three officers, the
Charleston Police Department
depends on assistance from other
law enforcement agencies when
major events occur. However, for
its size, the department can say
Charleston’s crime rate in the
northern most city in Bradley
County is very low.
“We are probably between 800 to
1,000 citizens. We are about a mile
wide and a mile long,” explained
Police Chief Johnny Stokes. “We
are on the road every day, monitoring the city.”

Kinsey combines love of music, work with kids
By ALLEN MINCEY
Banner Staff Writer
As diehard a Georgia Bulldog
fan as you will ever meet, it is
odd that a song Derrick Kinsey
helped
write
is
about
Tennessee.
Kinsey, chief executive officer
at the Boys & Girls Clubs, has
been with the club for 22 1/2
years, and though he thoroughly enjoys working with the kids
and the staff, he still keeps
involved in songwriting.
“I started writing with people
around town. I started writing
with Joe Joe Collins and helped
with one that he still plays —
PERSONALITY PROFILE
‘Tennessee Lullaby.’”
Kinsey laughs when he talks
about the song Collins wanted
to compose about how he met
his wife, Holli.
“A Georgia guy writing a
Tennessee song. Kind of
strange, huh?” he said. “I couldn’t believe I was writing a song
about Tennessee.”
Kinsey is originally from
Rome, Ga., and his family now
lives in Calhoun, Ga.
Music was not something that
permeated the Kinsey household, so Kinsey had to get
involved in music on his own.
He plays piano, guitar and saxophone.
“I was in a band called
Patmos, from the book of
Revelations,” he said. “I had the
long hair and looked like
(Nirvana’s) Kurt Cobain.”
He said people said the band
was playing “funky punk country,” which he had never heard.
Kinsey said he grew up not real-
ly caring for country music, but
has found his songwriting turns
to that genre now more than
any other.
“I have always enjoyed songwriting,” he said. “I guess my
biggest influences are Coldplay,
Jason Aldean and Zac Brown,
though I like anything from
Peabo Bryson to today’s music.”
Kinsey, 46, said he gets extra
enjoyment from songwriting
when someone is touched by his
music.
“I had one person who listened to a song of mine. While
he said the song needed some
work, he was touched with how

Michael ryne thornburg
Michael Ryne Thornburg, 24,
of Riceville, went to be with Lord
way too soon on, Friday, June 3,
2016.
Ryne was a lifelong resident
of Riceville, born on Nov. 13,
1991, to Mike and Vicki Wright
Thornburg.
He is survived by both of his
parents; as well as two older
sisters: Mitzi Mew and her husband Ashley, of Lawrenceville,
Ga., and Dana Coffman and her
husband, Justin, of Riceville.
He was “funcle” (fun uncle) to
Bryce,
Marshall,
Charlie,
Spencer, and Kenadee. He was
never happier than when surrounded by family.
He had a wonderful family at
Calhoun First Baptist Church,
where he was loved by all. Born
and raised there, he knew this is
where he would always attend.
He was a 2010 graduate of
McMinn County High School.
He attended Lee University and
was a current employee of
Resolute Forrest Products. To
say Ryne was an avid sports fan
would be an understatement.
He never missed an opportunity
to watch his nephews play ball.
As a season ticket holder he
stood by the VOLS through the
good and the bad and was looking forward to their upcoming
season #VFL.
While checking his fantasy
baseball, Ryne would be serenading us all. People loved to
hear Ryne sing whether it be
making a sandwich in the
kitchen, praising the Lord at
church, or walking the aisles at
Walmart. Ryne’s infectious
smile and sweet personality
made everyone want to be
around him. This has been evident by the outpouring of love
by all who knew him. He will be
greatly missed.

Tempers likely to soar
during 6-week summer
congressional session
WASHINGTON (AP) — Both
temperatures and tempers are
likely to run hot as lawmakers
return to Washington for an
abbreviated 6-week summertime
session featuring a handful of
must-do legislation and the rollout of a House GOP campaign
agenda that’s a pet priority for
House Speaker Paul Ryan.
The spring was a little bumpy
for the Wisconsin Republican, yoyoing between his role as the top
elected Republican in the country
in the era of Donald Trump and
manager of the difficult-to-control House.
Both roles have placed Ryan in
difficult spots. He’s openly struggled with the Trump phenomenon — endorsing the New York
billionaire as the GOP’s presumptive nominee on Thursday
despite “our differences” — and
he’s found it difficult to corral
wayward conservatives, just as
his predecessor John Boehner,
R-Ohio, did.
Summertime in presidential
election years is often a time
when Congress lowers its sights
and focuses more on what it has
to do rather than testing the limits of what the political thicket
will allow.
This summer, that must-do list
is short and achievable: Helping
Puerto Rico through its fiscal crisis; funding the battle against the
Zika virus; and reauthorizing the
Federal Aviation Administration.
Ryan has fulfilled promises for
more open House debates, deference to committee chairmen, and
a lighter touch with tea party
conservatives. But the return to
“regular order” has also led to
failure on the budget, delays on
the Puerto Rico and Zika measures, and a small-bore legislative
agenda that’s been overshadowed
by the presidential campaign.
Ryan will begin to roll out his
“agenda project” — a monthslong effort to devise a positive
vision, message and platform for
the party — this week, starting
with a speech and proposal on
poverty.
“We can keep doing the same
things and getting the same
results,” Ryan said Friday in a
video message. “Or instead of
trapping people in poverty, we
can get them on the ladder of
opportunity, reward work, open
our economy so everyone can
make the most of their lives.”
Ryan has a penchant for lofty
rhetoric, but his new job also
demands a focus on the nuts and
bolts of lawmaking, where there
are limits to what he can control.
For instance, it’s taken weeks
for Ryan and others to forge compromise legislation on Puerto
Rico that would establish a control board to oversee a limited
restructuring of the commonwealth’s debt. Puerto Rico missed
a May 1 debt payment and a larger July 1 obligation is looming,
but the hard-won Puerto Rico
legislation appears teed up to
pass the House after a bipartisan
committee vote last month; the
Senate, both Democrats and
Republicans say, is likely to
deliver the House bill to Obama
without any changes.
“That’s a real test for the
speaker. He’s invested a lot of
effort and time in (the Puerto
Rico legislation),” said Rep. Tom
Cole, R-Okla. “I think he’s wise to
have done so and I think he will
ultimately be successful. You
certainly wouldn’t want to go
home for July break not having
got that done. You would certainly like to get Zika done by the
July break as well.”
However, resolving legislation
to fight the Zika virus, passed by
both House and Senate in substantially different form, is more
complicated. A bipartisan $1.1
billion Senate measure is acceptable to the White House and its
Democratic allies, while a $622
million House measure that
passed along party lines has
attracted a veto threat from the
White House as insufficient to
fight the virus, which can cause
severe birth defects.
Not long ago, a logical splitthe-differences compromise to
the Senate’s spending level,
accompanied by spending cuts
demanded by House GOP conservatives, might have been a
slam dunk. That’s still a possible
solution, but it could bleed support from both Democrats and
Republicans, and presents Ryan
with a difficult balancing act. A
move by the House to attach an
unrelated measure on pesticides
permitting requirements is a
complicating factor as well.
Meanwhile, a battle over gay
rights has upended the appropriations process in the House,
which involves 12 annual spending bills for federal agencies. Last
month, Democrats succeeded in
winning an amendment defending an Obama executive order
protecting lesbian, gay, bisexual
and transgender people against
discrimination by federal contractors. That scuttled the
underlying energy and water
measure and may lead Ryan to
adopt a more closed approach in
order to avoid a repeat.
Lawmakers must also pass a
measure to reauthorize the FAA.
A battle over a House plan to spin
off responsibility for air traffic
control operations to a private,
nonprofit corporation has the
House and Senate at an impasse.
With the two key House and
Senate committee chairmen at
loggerheads over the issue, it’s
commonly assumed that lawmakers would opt to pass a
short-term extension of FAA
authority that would kick the
problem into next year.
In the Senate, Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has generally played it safe and has had
the Senate plug away on bipartisan legislation such as a measure to combat opioid abuse and
an effort to revive the moribund
process for appropriating annual
agency budgets. The opioid legislation is in a House-Senate conference committee and could be
ready for final votes before lawmakers leave Washington for the
political conventions in July.
4 dead in New Hampshire apartment fire
MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — A
fire that started on the porch of a
three-story apartment building
early Monday left four people
dead, fire officials said.
Two people were pronounced
dead at the scene and two others
were taken to a hospital, where
they were pronounced dead, the
fire department said. No additional information was released
on the victims.
One firefighter suffered a nonlife-threatening injury. No other
information was released.
Firefighters said they started
getting 911 calls on the building
fire on Wilson Street at about
5:10 a.m. They arrived to find
heavy fire at the building.
The building is in Manchester’s
east side.

Lee University International Piano Festival
and Competition planned for June 12-18
Lee University’s School of Music
will present its 12th Annual
International Piano Festival and
Competition June 12 through 18.
The event, which began in 2005
as a competition for high school
students, was expanded in 2011 to
include opportunities for non-competitors to also study with internationally acclaimed artists.
At the same time, it offers the
public a chance to take in some
brilliant performances. This year,
for the second time, the competition will be divided into two levels:
pre-college and college.
This year’s festival has attracted
19 outstanding young pianists to
the Lee campus. The participants
come from nine different states in
the U.S. and one from People’s
Republic of China, and range in
age from 11 to 26.
Highly praised performers and
teachers Mack McCray, Enrico
Elisi and Shen Lu are the guest
artists for this year’s festival.
Lee faculty Ning An and Cahill
Smith will also contribute to the
festival, which is chaired by Lee’s
Phillip Thomas.
One feature of this annual event
is that the guest artists offer concerts to the community. Lu and
Elisi will present a recital on
Monday evening, June 13, and An,
Smith, and McCray will perform
on Friday evening, June 17. Both
recitals will take place at 7:30 p.m.
in Squires Recital Hall of the
Humanities Center on Lee's campus.
Concerts on Tuesday and
Wednesday evening will feature
selected festival participants. All of
the festival concerts will begin at
7:30 p.m. in Squires Recital Hall
and are free and open to the public.
Festival participants have the
opportunity to learn from faculty
and guest artists in masterclasses
during the day. Faculty and guest
artists will also offer private lessons.
The competition will begin
Thursday, June 16, at 10 a.m.
Winners will be presented on the
morning of Saturday, June 18, following the competition’s final
round which begins at 10 a.m.

NASHVILLE
—
Tennessee
Education
Commissioner Candice McQueen recently surpassed
her goal of connecting with 10,000 Tennessee teachers through a statewide tour of classroom visits.
The commissioner, who initiated the tour as a way
to listen and learn from Tennessee educators, committed to this goal shortly after being sworn in to her
position in late January 2015.
Over the course of the past year and a half,
McQueen has visited more than 74 districts, 121
schools, and has observed classrooms in every region
of the state, from Johnson City to Memphis. After logging 10,662 miles on the road, she has spent time
with teachers, students, and administrators, listening to stories of their successes and challenges while
sharing her experiences across the state on the
department’s Classroom Chronicles blog.
“I’ve learned invaluable feedback from listening to
teachers this past year and seeing first hand how
state policies play out at the classroom level,”
McQueen said. “My biggest takeaway is that we must
continue to elevate and incorporate educators’ and
students’ voices into what we do at the department
and how we make policy decisions.”

Many, but not all,
cacti:
• have spines, or
needles.
• don’t have leaves.
Harsh
environment
The arid, or dry, conditions in the desert
allow about 90 percent of sunlight to reach the
ground, compared to 40 percent in a humid,
or wet, area such as a jungle. We
We know
w that
ultraviolet radiation from the sun can be
dangerous for human skin. But it can harm
the tissues of plants and animals, too.
Plants such as cacti that live in deserts have
adapted, or changed, to survive. For example:
• Cacti have shallow roots that can quickly
take up water from rain.
• They can hold a large amount of water.
• Their spines capture less sunlight than
leaves, making the plant grow more slowly.
* A horticulturist is a scientist who studies the
growth of plants.
Showing off
The cacti you probably think of most are
called saguaros
(sah-W
WAH-rohs).
They are tall,
straight plants that
look like they have
arms. Saguaros
grow only in the
Sonoran Desert of
Saguaro cacti
southern Arizona
and northern Mexico. They can grow to 60 ffeeet
tall, but they don’t begin producing branches,
or arms, until they’rre 50 to 70 years old!
Cacti produce flowers of many different
colors, including white, yellow
and bright pink. The small,
fuzzy bumps you see on a
cactus’s skin are called areoles
(AIR--ee-ohls). They produce
spines, flowers and branches.
Tall cacti that look like
Areoles
columns have a woody skeleton
on the inside that supports their height.
Surrounding the skeleton is tissue that can
expand and contract depending on how much
water is stored. Some cacti have a pleated
outer skin, or epidermis, that can also expand
or contract to cover the tissue.

What is a cactus?
Spines also shade the cactus and protect it ffrrom
predators.
• Their skin may have a waxy surface that
protects them from the sun’s radiation.
Resources

Have you ever pricked your finger on a
cactus? These thorny plants grow in deserts —
regions that get less than 10 inches of rainfall
per year, or where water evaporates quickly.
They also grow in other environments.
The Mini Page visited the Arizona-Sonora
Desert Museum near Tu
Tucson, Arizona,
recently and spoke with a horticulturist* there
to learn more about cacti. (Cacti is the plural
word for cactus.)

14 CSCC ‘welding boot camp’
participants become certified
By CHRISTY ARMSTRONG
Banner Staff Writer
Fourteen
students
and
recent graduates from two local
high schools became certified
welders after attending a new
welding camp offered by
Cleveland State Community
College.
Juniors and seniors from
Bradley Central High School
and Walker Valley High School
were given the opportunity to
take part in a “welding boot
camp” at the college in late
May.
The camp took place in
Cleveland State’s new welding
lab, which was officially introduced with a community open
house that same month.
“It’s nice to see all this hard
work being utilized,” Cleveland
State
welding instructor
Jonathan King said. “This boot
camp was great for the students. It mimicked some reallife situations. ... They were
doing real welds throughout.”
After a week’s worth of
instruction on gas metal arc
welding (GMAW) and metal
inert gas (MIG) welding, students were given the opportunity to test to become an
American Welding Society
Certified Welder.
The tests were offered on May
31, and King said all 14 students passed their certification
tests and now have a credential
which could help them find
employment in welding.
The camp was made available
to Bradley Central and Walker
Valley High School students
only because of a partnership
between Cleveland State and
Bradley County Schools.
Some of the 14 young men
had just graduated from high
school before starting the
camp, but others were able to
become certified welders before
even reaching their high school
graduation day.
Arlette Robinson, career and
technical education supervisor
for Bradley County Schools,
said she is glad high school
students now have a local place
where they test for professional
welding certifications.
She explained both Bradley
Central and Walker Valley have
already allowed students to
gain experience in welding.
Bradley Central offers a track
of four welding courses students can take. Both Bradley
Central and Walker Valley also
offer agriculture mechanics
courses which cover welding.
Through those classes, students can test for student-level
certification
in
welding.
However, Robinson stressed
this is the first time local high
school students have gotten to
test for their professional certifications while still in high
school.
“This is an opportunity high
school students rarely have,”
Robinson said. “No one in
Bradley County
has
ever
offered this. It’s really a big
thing.”
The AWS certification is considered an industry standard
for entry-level welding jobs.
While these students may still
need to gain additional certifications to do certain types of
welding, Robinson said the
basic certification could be
enough to help the recent graduates “get a foot in the door.”
Both King and Robinson said
certified welders are very much
in demand by manufacturing
companies in this area. Both
said their respective departments have been known to
receive calls from area companies looking to hire welders.
This demand, King said, is
why Cleveland State is excited to
not only have a welding lab but
to be able to be adding to the
training it can offer in that field.
The college has offered welding courses for a few years as
part of its electro-mechanical
concentration in its industrial
technology associate’s degree
program. Soon, it is hoping to
offer a standalone certificate
program in welding, which
would give students a college
credential while helping them
test for various industry certifications.
The new program could begin
as soon as this fall, provided
the Tennessee Board of Regents
approves it during its quarterly
meeting June 23.
“We’re hoping to, in the
future, also add an AAS [associate of applied science] degree
in welding,” King said.
In the meantime, the instructor said it was nice to see the
lab being utilized by a group of
students for the first time.
The welding camp included
both classroom and lab
instruction time, and King said
the
students
ultimately
received 30 hours of “handson” experience.
Using individual welding
booths in the lab, students
spent much of that working in
teams of two to complete welds.
Later, they would check others’
work to ensure the metal pieces
they had welded together had
strong enough connections.
Students also learned about
the importance of safety while
dealing with searing torches
and melting metal, using proper equipment like face shields,
gloves and protective jackets.
They also had the chance to
take a field trip to Heatec, Inc.,
a Chattanooga company which
makes heating equipment and
asphalt mixing tanks. There,
students watched the welders
work and received some tips for
their own welding.
“This was a great opportunity,” said Tanner Kincaid, a
recent Walker Valley graduate.
“It’s been great practice.”
He added he was happy to be
getting his AWS certification
and said he now feels better
prepared to begin working as a
professional welder.
Austin Crisp, who will be a
senior at Bradley Central this
fall, said it was “really fun” to
visit Heatec and see profession-

Though he still has a year of
high school to go, Crisp also
said he was grateful for the
opportunity to get a jump start
on his professional credentials.
“It’s a good field to get into,
so I am looking foward to getting started in it,” Crisp said.
Students also noted they
were glad to be able to attend
the camp and take the certification test at a relatively low cost.
Students were only charged
$35 to receive their certifications.

zens and them letting us know
about things.”
“I think our rapport with the citizens mean the most,” Stokes
added. “The citizens here are just
wonderful, and tell us how pleased
they are we are here.”
He said the Charleston Police
Department works well with other
agencies whenever they call for
assistance. They also respond
when Charleston calls needing
help.
“We have to work together, and
we do that very well,” Stokes said.
A situation earlier this year is
proof. The Piggly Wiggly supermarket in Charleston was broken into,
and a safe was stolen from the
business. Several law enforcement
agencies responded to assist the
Charleston team with the investigation. One of those allegedly involved
in the incident was arrested in
Texas and charged with the crime.
There are few crimes that occur
in Charleston, and the officers said
it is because they are seen monitoring the city every hour.
“We don’t have a [measurable]
crime rate in Charleston,” Spandau
said. “As far as thefts, burglaries
and things like that, they are few
and far between.”
Stokes is a former resident of the
city, and not only works with the
Charleston Police Department, but
with Bradley County Fire-Rescue.
Spandau has been with the
Charleston Police Department for
just over four years, and this is the
first year for Johnson. None see the
department as a steppingstone to
get them to a larger department.
“I am happy to be here in
Charleston,” Johnson said. “I just
like the people here.”
Spandau said there is a connection with the residents of
Charleston that you might not see
in a larger city.
“We are proud to work here. We
love our citizens and they are
pleased to have us here,” Stokes
said.
All three of the Charleston officers have gone through the Law
Enforcement Training Academy at
Cleveland State Community
College, and each is certified.
Stokes said along with the support of the community, the
Charleston City Commission and
Mayor Walter Goode have been
helpful in keeping the police
department up-to-date.
“We couldn’t do it without everyone’s help and support,” he
stressed.
with completion expected in
spring 2017.
The location was chosen
because “a lot of business is
developing in that area,” Bhagat
said.
A similar hotel has just been
completed in Chattanooga.
Cleveland already has one
Marriott hotel, Fairfield Inn &
Suites.
Expansion of the hotel industry has been driven by an
increase in tourism to the area
in recent years.
In addition to tourists staying
in Cleveland for rafting trips on
the Ocoee River and other
leisure, Lee University graduations, sporting events, corporate meetings and ministry
events contribute to the number of hotel stays.
Cleveland has also seen an
increase in hotel stays as construction projects have brought
in specialized employees.
“I think residents just don’t
realize how much traffic we
have in our hotels,” Melissa
Woody, vice president for
tourism development for the
Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of
Commerce, said in a past interview. “I am really of the mind
that a rising tide lifts all ships. I
like to think that the more
brands and the more quality
places we have to stay at our
exits, the more people will stop.”
The TownePlace Suites project received a building permit in
April, and was one of five com-

DERRICK KINSEY, chief executive officer for the Boys & Girls Clubs, has been with the organization
for over 22 years, and has seen many children go through the programs there, such as this group of girls
who were all too pleased to have their photographs made with Kinsey.

I wrote about my life in that
song, and he said he was very
sorry about my loss, even
though I had not lost anyone,”
Kinsey said. “The song, though,
was not about me, but the way
it touched him — well, that’s
what music and songwriting are
all about.
“You can become someone
you are not, and that’s what I
hope I bring out in my songwriting,” Kinsey said.
Kinsey ended up being
brought for a visit to Lee
University by his youth pastor.
He eventually graduated with
degrees in business and music.
Music remains important to
Kinsey, but something else that
he experienced at Lee University
was bigger. It was there he met
his better half, Beth. The two
dated for five years and ended
up getting married on Nov. 9,
1996.
The Kinseys work together at
the Boys & Girls Clubs, and he
said “Beth keeps me in line.”
The two have two boys — Gage,
13, and Ian, 11 — both of whom
are into music, with Ian playing
saxophone and Gage the trumpet.
They are also heavy into
sports, on teams at Ocoee
Middle School.
“I guess if I wasn’t at the club,
I would like to be either a songwriter or coach for a living,”
Kinsey said. “I thought at one
time I would get into youth
music ministry, but the Boys &
Girls Clubs expanded and I was
offered a job here.”
Along with the Boys & Girls
Clubs, Kinsey is involved with
recording and event planning
with Adam Lowe at the Venue at
Creekside. He and his wife have
been involved with music at
First Baptist Church, which he
said they have enjoyed.
He does get to participate in
sports at the club, but not as
much as he wishes he could, as
his job leads him more in an
administrative direction. He has
served in many different roles
with the club, with his last position as director of operations.
“I stayed in that role until
(former executive director)
Charlie (Sutton) moved on to
another position within the
club,” Kinsey said. “I have been
in this position for a year.”
Kinsey said with the success
of the seven club locations,
there have been others who
have wanted to emulate that
success.
“We have been approached by
the Copper Basin area that
wants a Boys & Girls Clubs, as
well as Athens, which surprisingly does not have a club,” he
said.
Kinsey said the success of
the clubs is due to “a great
board of directors” and “a very
conscientious staff.”
“It’s a group effort,” he said.
“And we have a great relationship with the local schools and a
great relationship with the
YMCA.”
Kinsey said all of the support
from the community for the
Boys & Girls Clubs is what lets
it run so smoothly and efficiently.
“I am just the overseer of the
clubs’ position, guide and problem solver,” he said. “They make
it go.”

mercial permits approved. This
is a jump from recent months,
which have seen little to no new
commercial construction.
These projects represent
$10.3 million in project value
and generated $23,635 in revenue for the city’s general fund.
Other projects included the
Cook Out Restaurant on 25th
Street, renovations at Life Care
Centers of America, a sales
office on South Lee highway
and a storage building on
Michigan Avenue Road.
The Cook Out Restaurant is
taking shape near the corner of
25th and Keith Street. It will be
a double drive-through serving
barbecue, chicken sandwiches,
hamburgers, milkshakes, etc.
The project should be complete
in two to three months.
While the largest value in
projects was in commercial
building permits, there were
more residential permits than
commercial permits approved
in April.
There were seven permits
approved, three for single-family homes and four for townhouses. The projects represent
$822,000 in value and generated $3,789 for the city. This is a
decrease from the 25 residential projects approved last
month
There were also six permits
approved for additions or alterations. These projects included
a deck, two carports, a garage
and a covered porch.
Obama designates 9
new promise zones
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Obama administration has added
nine communities to its effort to
ease access to federal aid and cut
red tape for areas beset by joblessness, hunger, crime and poor
housing.
The newly selected so-called
Promise Zones include neighborhoods in Nashville, south Los
Angeles, the west side of Atlanta,
parts of Evansville, Indiana; San
Diego, eastern Puerto Rico and
southwest Florida. The Spokane
Indian Reservation and communities near Spokane, Washington,
and the Turtle Mountain Band of
Chippewa Indians and their communities around Rolette County,
North Dakota also were selected.
The list brings to 22 the number of urban, rural and Indian
communities that carry the
Promise Zone designation, a cornerstone of President Barack
Obama’s anti-poverty and urban
development agenda. The designation comes with no guaranteed
new federal money but gives communities an advantage in applying for grants, as well as special
access to federal employees who
act as liaisons and guides
through federal bureaucracy.
House primaries
in Ga., Calif.,
show pressures
buffeting GOP
WASHINGTON (AP) — In two
House Republican strongholds —
a Georgia district sprawling from
Atlanta’s exurbs to the Alabama
line and another in California’s
Central Valley — upcoming elections illustrate the anti-establishment mood faced by GOP candidates.
Dentist and former local mayor
Drew Ferguson is vying for the
Republican nomination in a July
runoff for the open Georgia seat,
calling himself “a conservative outsider” and boasting of spurring
economic development. He sometimes sounds like presumptive
GOP presidential nominee Donald
Trump, saying that border fences
are “not mean-spirited” and supporting halting refugees from
nations “whose populations mean
us harm.”
Yet many religious conservatives
and Washington-based conservative groups such as the Club for
Growth prefer state Sen. Mike
Crane. His opposition to narrow
tax breaks led him to vote against
lowered state levies for filmmakers
— even though television’s “The
Walking Dead” films in the area —
and he’s taken hard-line views
against gay marriage and for making English Georgia’s official language.
In California, House Majority
Leader Kevin McCarthy should
easily dominate Tuesday’s primary, in which candidates of all
parties compete for two spots on
November’s ballot. The $6.4 million that McCarthy amassed for
his own campaign — he’s also provided plenty more for GOP colleagues — crushes the $31,000
raised by his best-financed opponent, conservative Republican Ken
Mettler.
McCarthy aides say he travels
home most weekends anyway and
scheduled a half-dozen Memorial
Day events. Unforgotten is 2014,
when the congressional career of
the previous majority leader, GOP
Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, ended
after a primary ambush by an
unknown, underfunded college
professor, Dave Brat, who’s now in
the House.
Republicans are virtually
assured of keeping the Georgia
and California seats in November’s
general elections, but these preliminary battles underscore the
stakes for the party. Races like
Georgia’s will help determine
whether a fresh influx of ideological rebels will make the already
rambunctious House GOP even
harder for its leaders to steer,
while McCarthy’s contest shows a
lingering unease from Cantor’s fall.
“When you’re head of an organization that has a 15 percent
approval rating, you worry,” said
Tom Davis, a former Virginia congressman and head of the House
GOP campaign committee.
Not one House GOP incumbent
has been ousted this year in primaries, even as the public seems
intensely
unhappy
with
Washington. Their survival has
surprised some, just eight months
after conservatives drove House
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,
into retirement, and as Trump
vanquished political rivals.
At least one Republican incumbent will lose Tuesday: Redrawn
lines pit Reps. Renee Ellmers and
George Holding against each other
for the nomination in one North
Carolina district. With congressional primaries remaining in
more than half the states, other
incumbents in Colorado, Kansas
and Oklahoma could tumble too.
And groups from competing ends
of the party’s ideological spectrum
are engaging.
The American Action Network
and Congressional Leadership
Fund, aligned with party leaders,
helped House Transportation
Chairman Bill Shuster of
Pennsylvania and Ways and
Means Chairman Kevin Brady of
Texas survive primary scares.
According to figures from the
nonpartisan Center for Responsive
Politics, the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce spent $1.8 million
helping Rep. Martha Roby, R-Ala.,
defeat a tea party challenger in a
March primary and helped an ally
win the nomination for an open
Kentucky seat.
On the other side, the Club for
Growth spent $1.1 million to help
conservative businessman Warren
Davidson capture the GOP nomination for Boehner’s vacated seat,
a symbolic triumph, and disbursed $800,000 against Ellmers,
according to the center. The House
Freedom Fund — run by conservatives in the rebellious House
Freedom Caucus — spent more
than $100,000 to help businessman Jim Banks win a Republican
primary in Indiana.
Potentially vulnerable GOP
incumbents have survived primaries in Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois,
Alabama and Georgia.

countries to be prosecuted.
Obama administration rushing
to shrink ranks at Guantanamo
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Obama administration is running out of time and options to
close the Guantanamo Bay
detention center in Cuba, so officials are scrambling to release as
many prisoners as possible and
considering novel legal strategies
that include allowing some men
to strike plea deals by video-teleconference.
Another option would be to
send others to foreign countries
to be prosecuted. But it still
looks to be too late to close the
prison before President Barack
Obama leaves office in January,
denying him the chance to fulfill
a campaign pledge.
There’s the difficulty in transferring prisoners from the U.S.
base in Cuba, questions about
the legality of plea deals and
solid opposition in Congress to
anything that might help Obama
achieve that promise.
“The clock has struck midnight and the American people
have won,” said Sen. Cory
Gardner, R-Colo., who has said
he would oppose any effort to
move detainees to prison facilities in his state. “The president
needs to admit that.”
Later this month, lawmakers
are on track to extend a ban on
moving detainees to U.S. soil.
That would leave the president
with no way to make the January
2017 deadline, barring an unexpected reversal in Congress or a
politically explosive executive
order.
The White House increasingly
is pointing to a parallel strategy:
trying to shrink the number of
detainees in hopes of persuading
lawmakers that Guantanamo is
too expensive to sustain as a
prison.
Of the 80 remaining detainees,
30 have been cleared for an overseas transfer. Most will leave
starting in late June and continuing into July, according to a
U.S. official. Those prisoners will
go to a number of countries,
including at least one in Europe,
said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the
administration had not authorized public release of the information.
Seven additional detainees are
facing trial by military commission, including five charged with
planning and supporting the
Sept. 11 attacks. Three others
have been convicted. But commission proceedings have gone
on at a glacial pace. In April, the
Pentagon put forward fresh proposals for Guantanamo, but
none has been incorporated into
defense legislation moving
through Congress.
The remaining 40 were either
at one time considered for prosecution or held as indefinite “law
of war detainees” until the end of
hostilities in the fight against terrorism that began after the 2001
attacks. The United States started using Guantanamo for suspects in January 2002; at its
peak, the facility held about 680
prisoners.
U.S. officials have chipped
away at those numbers through
the Periodic Review Board, a
multiagency task force that conducts parole-style hearings for
men once deemed too dangerous
to release.
The board did not hold a hearing until November 2013, but
recently it has picked up its pace,
holding more than 20 so far this
year. Outcomes are leaning heavily in prisoners’ favor. If the government keeps up its current
pace of about two per week, it
wouldn’t complete hearings,
much less arrange for transfers,
until December.
The U.S. also is working with
other governments to prosecute
some detainees overseas, the official said. These could be prisoners accused of conduct outside
the U.S. involving offenses
against citizens of other countries. It would otherwise be difficult or impossible to prosecute
these men in an American court.
One possible example would
be Mohammed Abdul Malik
Bajabu, a 42-year-old Kenyan
accused of involvement in plots
in Mombasa in November 2002:
an attack on an Israeli-owned
hotel, in which 13 people died,
and an unsuccessful attempt to
shoot down an Israeli airliner.
The official declined to identify
any specific cases but said there
could be five to 10 in all.
The defense bill up for debate
in the Senate soon includes a
provision that would allow
detainees to enter guilty pleas —
via video teleconference — in federal civilian courts. If a judge
accepts the plea, the detainee
would be sentenced and transferred to serve that sentence in a
foreign prison.
In conversations with advocates, White House officials have
said the Justice Department has
reservations about such guilty
plea proposals. Chief among the
concerns is whether the judge
could accept the guilty pleas as
entered by the defendant knowingly and voluntarily — a
bedrock principle of the
American criminal justice system
— while there is no mechanism
in place to stand trial. The prisoner’s only other choice is continued, indefinite detention.
The White House has not
taken a position, but suggested it
is receptive to the idea. The president believes it is “important
that we have available to us a
variety of tools at our disposal,”
National
Security
Council
spokesman Myles Caggins said
in a statement, which also noted
that federal courts have an “outstanding record” of handling terrorism cases.

SEATTLE (AP) — Dozens of
residents of a Columbia River
town in northern Oregon have

home, after crews made progress
in repairing damage caused by
the derailment of an oil train that

About a hundred people — a
quarter of Mosier’s population —

several cars carrying the volatile
oil went off the tracks.

services, including a waste water

Kassem, a law professor at the
City University of New York.

Tropical Storm Colin heading toward Florida’s Gulf coast
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) —
Tropical Storm Colin was gaining
speed and strength Monday on
its way to strike Florida, threatening rains forecasters said
could cause some serious flooding along much of the state’s
Gulf coast.
A large portion of Florida’s
western and Panhandle coast
was already under a tropical
storm warning when the
National Hurricane Center
announced that a quickly moving depression
The center said it is the earliest that a third named storm has
ever formed in the Atlantic basin.
Colin’s maximum sustained
winds Monday morning had
increased to near 50 mph (85
kph) with some slow strengthening possible during the next two
days.
The storm was centered about
360 miles (580 kilometers) westsouthwest of Tampa and moving
north-northeast near 14 mph (22
kph).
Tropical storms carry wind
speeds of between 39 mph (63
kph) and 73 mph (117 kph).
“It’s going to impact most of
the state in some way,” Gov. Rick
Scott said in a phone interview.
“Hopefully we won’t have any significant issues here, but we can
have some storm surge, some
rain, tornados and some flooding.”
The center of Colin is expected
to approach the coast of the
Florida Big Bend area Monday
afternoon or evening, forecasters
said.
Colin is expected to produce
rainfall amounts of 3 to 5 inches
and forecasters said up to 8
inches possible across western
Florida, eastern Georgia, and
coastal areas of the Carolinas
through Tuesday.
Scott postponed a political
meeting
with
presumptive
Republican presidential nominee
Donald
Trump
scheduled
Monday in New York so he can
remain in the state capital to
monitor the weather.
It is the latest in a series of
severe whether events across the
country, from record-breaking
heat in the West, flooding in
Texas and storms that are
expected to cause problems in
the nation’s capital and midAtlantic region.
Scott warned residents not to
simply look at the center of the
storm, saying the heaviest rain
will be to the east and west of it.
The National Weather Service
in Mobile, Alabama, issued a
flood warning for the Shoal River
near Crestview and warned of
possible widespread flooding in
streams, creeks, and canals.
Wind gusts threatened to bring
down trees and branches and
cause power outages.
The Georgia coast and the
north Florida Atlantic coast were
placed under a tropical storm
watch Sunday evening.
Sand bags were being distributed to residents in St.
Petersburg, Tampa and nearby
cities.
—ARIZONA HEAT
said Phoenix hit 113 degrees on
Sunday, making it the third day
in a row setting record high temperatures in Arizona’s Urban
Heart. Sunday’s high beat the
previous record of 112 degrees in
1990.
Much of Southern Arizona,
from Phoenix to Nogales, is
under an excessive heat warning.
Other western and southwestern U.S. states are experiencing
above-normal temperatures in
the triple-digits.
Officials are warning residents
to stay hydrated and avoid the
outdoors between 10 a.m. and 4
p.m., when temperatures are
highest.

A spokesman for Cedar Point
amusement park in Sandusky
says traffic there was diverted
after a nearby roadway was
closed as a result of downed
power lines and debris from the
storm.
The spokesman says Cedar
Point will be closed Monday as
utility crews work to repair the
downed power lines. The park
plans to reopen Tuesday.
The Sandusky Register reports
the storm also downed trees and
power lines in the city’s downtown area.
—TEXAS TRAGEDY
Fort Hood officials have identified the last of nine soldiers who
died in Texas floodwaters during
a training exercise as a 25-yearold Army specialist from
California.
Army officials on Sunday said
Spc. Yingming Sun enlisted in
2013 and first arrived at Fort
Hood nearly two years ago.
He and eight others who were
previously identified died when
fast-moving waters washed a 2
½-ton vehicle from a low-water
crossing Thursday.
Three others soldiers survived
and have returned to duty.
Heavy and persistent storms
the past two weeks have dumped

New Miss USA is from
D.C.; to take a break
from U.S. Army Reserves
LAS VEGAS (AP) — The newly
crowned Miss USA is a 26-yearold Army officer from the
District of Columbia who gave
perhaps the strongest answer of
the night when asked about
women in combat.
“As a woman in the United

HoRses suRRouNDeD by floodwaters are shown in this aerial
view Saturday in Rosharon, Texas. Parts of Texas have been inundated with rain in the last week, and more than half of the state has
been under flood watches or warnings.
The zoo says it was the first
such breach in Gorilla World’s 38
years of existence, but the exhibit
will reopen Tuesday with a higher,
reinforced barrier. The boy apparently climbed over the barrier May
28 before falling about 15 feet into
a shallow moat.
A special response team shot
and killed the gorilla, 17-year-old
Harambe, after concluding the
boy’s life was at stake.
A Cincinnati police report identifies the boy’s mother as Michelle
Gregg, 32, who works at a preschool near Cincinnati. The child’s
father isn’t named in the report,
and it’s unclear whether he was at
the zoo at the time of the incident.
The boy’s family has said he is
doing well at home after being
treated at a hospital. Police said he
had scrapes on his head and knee.
Police released 911 tapes last
week that highlighted the confusion and panic in the moments
when the boy plunged into the
gorilla exhibit.
“He’s dragging my son! I can’t
watch this!” a woman says in the
911 call. As she pleads for help,
she shouts at her son repeatedly:
“Be calm!”
The police report states that witnesses said the gorilla initially
appeared to be protecting the
child, but after onlookers began
screaming, he became “agitated
and scared” and began dragging
the child.
LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Thousands of people driven from
their homes in the hills northwest of Los Angeles were allowed
to return Sunday night after
crews working in steep canyons
took advantage of cooler temperatures and calmer winds to beat
back a brush fire.
The fire near the prosperous
and semi-rural neighborhoods of
Calabasas was 80 percent contained by sunset — up from 30
percent at daybreak.
Firefighters using aircraft
made water drops along the eastern and southern edges of the
blaze, which was held to just over
500 acres, Los Angeles County
Deputy Fire Chief John Tripp
said.
He said the fire was hung up
on the mid-slope of steep
canyons, making a direct attack
difficult.
“The fire was not down against
a road, it was up against a cliff,”
Tripp said. “So firefighters had to
hike up.”
All the evacuations, most of
them in Calabasas but some in
nearby Topanga, were canceled
starting at 6 p.m.
At the height of the fire, about
3,000 homes were threatened
and about 5,000 residents were
under evacuation orders.
It was sparked by a car crash
that downed power lines.
The fire destroyed one commercial building, Tripp said.
Officials had previously said
three homes had been damaged,
but closer examination as the fire
calmed showed that was not the
case, he said.
Fifty-foot-high flames erupted
on ridges, and embers turned
trees into torches Saturday afternoon.
The fire flared as Southern
California sweltered under temperatures that hit the 90s in
many places.

Center-right economist narrowly ahead in Peru election
AP photo
in this MAy 25 Photo, Mao Yushi writes calligraphy as his wife Zhao Yanling prepares the ink at
their home in Beijing. Targeted by radical Red Guards during China’s tumultuous Cultural Revolution,
Mao Yushi saw his family home ransacked, underwent hard labor and was lashed bloody with copper
wires along with his father. Fifty years later, Mao’s campaign to document China’s turbulent past and hold
the ruling Communist Party accountable continues to win him enemies among die-hard acolytes of Mao
Zedong, who unleashed the Cultural Revolution in 1966 in a bid to revive his radical egalitarian agenda.
Critic of Mao persists in documenting
China’s turbulent and violent past
BEIJING (AP) — As China’s
Cultural Revolution descended
into mob violence, teenage Red
Guards dragged Mao Yushi and
his father, two proud and bookish engineers, out of their home
to sweep a boulevard as a crowd
watched and jeered. The pair
were then lashed with a copperflecked whip until their backs
were flayed. When Mao later
stumbled into work, he didn’t
know blood was still seeping
through his shirt until colleagues
pointed it out.
“I was whipped through my
skin, but I didn’t feel pain
because in my heart I was so
scared I would be beaten to
death,” Mao recalls. “Every day
they pulled dead bodies through
... the market on flat-bed tricycles. A piece of cloth covering
every tricycle, just like that.”
Fifty years later, the prominent
economist’s campaign to document China’s turbulent past and
hold the ruling Communist Party
accountable continues to win
him enemies among die-hard
acolytes of Mao Zedong, who
unleashed
the
Cultural
Revolution in 1966 in a bid to
destroy his political foes and
revive his radical egalitarian
agenda.
The life and career of the 87year-old economist, who is not
related to the late leader, traces
the twists of modern China’s
tumultuous history. He survived
near starvation in the late 1950s
and persecution during the
Cultural Revolution only to battle
a concerted campaign by neoMaoists to vilify him today.
“The one who brought calamity
to an entire nation still hangs in
Tiananmen Square and is still
found on the banknotes we use
every day,” Mao wrote in a 2011
essay that placed him firmly in
the crosshairs of the neoMaoists. “China’s tragicomedy
still hasn’t had its curtain call.”
Mao’s ordeals have only
emboldened his criticism of a
restrictive political system that
gave rise, he says, to a climate in
which rampaging teenagers
could publicly whip him into a
bloody heap five decades ago,
and which continues to impose
one-party authoritarian rule over
an increasingly prosperous and
diverse society.
A former scholar with the
Chinese Academy of Social
Sciences and co-founder of freemarket think-tank Unirule,
Mao’s arguments for market
reforms and individual rights
have brought him an international following, and won him
accolades including the 2012
Milton Friedman Prize from the
libertarian Cato Institute in
Washington, D.C.
Yet, interviewed one recent
afternoon in their west Beijing
home, Mao and his wife, Zhao
Yanling, said they are still paying
the price for his widely circulated
2011 online column criticizing
Mao Zedong as a power-obsessed
sociopath whose legacy continues to warp Chinese society.
Neo-Maoists have left death
threats on his voicemail, held
protest rallies outside his public
lectures and signed petitions
seeking his arrest. One man
threw a shoe at him at a lecture
in eastern China; another barged
into a speech in Washington to
denounce him as a traitor to the
Chinese people. The government
has warned him to be less outspoken but has not employed
harsher methods it has used on
others critical of the leadership.
With this year marking the
Cultural Revolution’s 50th
anniversary, the couple feels particularly under siege. In recent
weeks police have intercepted
suspected Maoists seeking to
confront them at home, said
Zhao, who dreads the sound of
her own doorbell.
“She lives in a state of constant
fear,” Mao said. “So do I.”
Mao was born in 1929. His
father and an uncle were engineers trained at Purdue
University in the United States.
Mao moved 13 times in a dozen
years as he followed the work
assignments of his father, a highranking railway planner.
Although a strong supporter of
the Communist Party following
its violent 1949 takeover, Mao
began openly questioning the
planned economy while pursuing
his own career as a railway engineer. Amid a far-reaching crackdown on dissent, he was labeled
a rightist in 1957 and lost several
pay grades.
Worse was to come. In 1960,
he was sent to rural Shandong
province to be re-educated,
where he discovered the horror of
the massive famine that resulted
from Mao Zedong’s headline
drive to collectivize agriculture
and build up industry. Mao
Yushi and others survived by eating insects and birds, while all
but one in a family of 12 in his
village succumbed to starvation.
An estimated 30 million or more
are believed to have died over
three years in an event that
remains little discussed in the
country.
Eventually reinstated to a
comfortable life in Beijing, Mao’s
existence was again upended on
a steamy August evening in 1966
soon after the start of the
Cultural Revolution. A neighbor
directed a band of Red Guards to
the Mao home, denouncing the
family as capitalists and intellectuals who were ripe targets for
class struggle.
“Don’t speak,” one of the boys,
no older than 16, warned as he
led the family outside, adding
ominously: “If you speak, I’ll dig
another hole in the ground.”
The thuggish youths carted
away furniture, jewelry and
clothes and burned the family’s
ration coupons, leaving just
enough cash for a handful of
meals. In the following weeks,
they returned to whip both the
father and son and shave the
head of Zhao, Mao’s wife, as a
particularly bitter form of humiliation.
Mao Yushi was soon banished
to a locomotive factory in distant
Shanxi Province while Zhao
stayed in Beijing, leaving a portion of their monthly salary in a
milk box outside to fend off the
roving gangs. Mao’s father managed to keep his position in
Beijing.
Mao returned to visit his wife
and two children a few times a
year until Mao Zedong’s death in
1976 finally put an end to the
decade-long paroxysm of violence
and chaos, in which an estimated 1 million Chinese died from
persecution, execution or by
killing themselves.
Amid the 1980s economic
reforms instituted under Deng
Xiaoping, Mao turned to economics. He grew increasingly critical
of the party following the bloody
crackdown on the 1989 studentled pro-democracy protests
focused on Beijing’s Tiananmen
Square.
Armed with his laptop and several blogs , Mao continues to give
his opinions on everything from
state enterprise reforms to efforts
to regulate the housing market.
“All of the mistakes this country has made have been because
there is no freedom of thought or
freedom of expression,” he said.
Ukraine arrests Frenchman for plotting
attacks on Euro 2016 soccer tournament
MOSCOW (AP) — Ukraine’s
intelligence agency has thwarted a
plot to attack the European
Championship soccer tournament
in France by arresting a heavilyarmed Frenchman who wanted to
cross into the European Union,
officials said Monday.
The Ukrainian Security Service,
or SBU, said it had followed the
man since December and allowed
him to purchase five machine
guns,
two
rocket-propelled
grenade launchers, 125 kilograms
(275 pounds) of TNT, 100 detonators and other weapons. He also
bought 20 balaclavas before he
was arrested at the Yahodyn border crossing between Ukraine and
Poland last month, authorities
said.
The SBU “has managed to foil a
series of 15 terrorist attacks which
were planned to target France
before and during” Euro 2016,
said Vasyl Hrytsak, the security
agency’s chief.
The SBU didn’t identify the man
but said the suspect wanted to
protest against his government’s
migration policies and the spread
of Islam. It said he planned
attacks on bridges, railways and
other infrastructure for Euro
2016.
Extremist attacks are a major
concern for French authorities as
they prepare to host the monthlong tournament at stadiums in
the Paris area and eight other
cities from Friday through July
10. Islamic State extremists have
threatened France during the
tournament, but authorities
haven’t confirmed specific dangers.
France is deploying a 90,000strong security force for the tournament, and President Francois
Hollande said Sunday night that
the threat of attacks won’t stop it
from being successful.
The Paris police prefect, Michel
Cadot, declined to comment on
the information from Ukraine,
saying only that “there is no specific threat against any (Euro
2016) site.”
Ukraine’s intelligence agency
had initially planned to keep a lid
on the investigation, but decided
to go public about the arrest after
reports in international media,
Hrytsak told national television.
French regional newspaper
L’Est republicain identified the
man as Gregoire Moutaux and
said investigators raided his home
in Nant-le-Petit near the eastern
city of Nancy in late May. The
source for the man’s identity
wasn’t cited. French television network M6 reported that investigators found T-shirts of an extreme
right group.
However, the Paris prosecutor’s
office, which handles terrorism
cases at a national level, said no
investigation had been opened yet.
Ukrainian authorities released
photos of a fair-haired man, with
his face blurred, holding various
weapons, as well as a video of the
arrest which showed SWAT officers dragging the man out of a
white minivan and putting him on
the ground of what looked like a
parking lot with his face down.
The SBU said the Frenchman
became known to the agency last
year during his stay in eastern
Ukraine, and where he was “trying
to establish ties with Ukrainian
troops under the guise of volunteering.”
Ukrainian troops and Russiabacked separatists have fought in
the east since April 2014, killing
nearly 9,400 people. It wasn’t
immediately clear which side of
the conflict the Frenchman had
stayed with.
LIMA, Peru (AP) — Economist
Pedro Pablo Kuczynski had a
razor-thin lead over the daughter
of an imprisoned former president
in Peru’s presidential election, as
Peruvians nervously awaited
results still trickling in from
remote parts of the Andean nation.
With about half of polling stations counted late Sunday night,
the 77-year-old Kuczynski had
50.6 percent of the votes compared
to 49.4 percent for his rival Keiko
Fujimori, the daughter of jailed former strongman Alberto Fujimori.
While votes from Peru’s hinterland, where support for Fujimori is
strongest, could take days to come
in, Kuczynski supporters were
optimistic they’d prevail after two
unofficial quick counts showed
him winning by at least 1 percentage point. While that is within the
statistical margin of error of the
counts, the pollsters have a track
record of accuracy.
Addressing cheering supporters
from the balcony of his campaign
headquarters, the former World
Bank economist urged them to be
vigilant against fraud at the ballot
box but otherwise sounded as if he
had already been declared the winner.
“We’re going to have a government built on consensus. No more
low blows or fights,” said the econ-

omist, who supported fellow conservative Fujimori in the 2011
runoff won by President Ollanta
Humala.
But Fujimori showed no sign of
conceding defeat.
“We’re going to wait with prudence because all night votes will
be coming in from the provinces,
from abroad and from the rural
voters of deep Peru,” she said while
dancing to her campaign theme
song on a campaign truck parked
outside the Lima hotel where she
awaited results. Many see the election as a referendum on her
father’s iron-fisted rule in the
1990s.
With 52 percent of voting stations counted late Sunday night,
Kuczynski had 4,724,897 votes
compared to 4,613,861 for
Fujimori.
A potential swing vote in a close
race could be the 885,000
Peruvians eligible to vote abroad —
about 3.8 percent of the electorate.
It would be a stunning turnaround for Kuczynski, who managed to narrow Fujimori’s lead by
abandoning his above-the-fray,
grandfatherly appeal and attacking
her as a risk to Peru’s young
democracy.

Home-run happy Dodgers
rout Braves, sweep series
Auburn beats
Florida State
to earn berth
in WCWS
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) —
Auburn regained its composure
late to move within two wins of a
national title.
Pinch-runner Morgan Podany
beat a tag at the plate in the bottom of the eighth inning, and the
Tigers edged Florida State 8-7 on
Sunday night in the Women’s
College World Series to advance to
the best-of-three championship
round.
Auburn (57-10) reached the
championship series for the first
time and set a school record for
wins.
“It wasn’t as pretty as we would
have liked,” Auburn coach Clint
Myers said. “It wasn’t as easy as
we would have liked. But I think
you saw the fight. I think you saw
the heart.”
Myers, who won national
championships at Arizona State
in 2008 and 2011, has Auburn in
position to win it in his third year
at the school.
“I believed in the people I work
with, that if they buy in, which
we’ve proven that they have, and
if they work and commit, great
things happen,” he said. “I mean,
we’ve still got softball to play, but
having the opportunity to play for
a national championship is something that we’ve talked about
since we got there, and again, it’s
them buying in.”
Florida State’s Cali Harrod tied
it with a three-run homer in the
seventh.
Auburn’s Madi Gipson singled
in the bottom of the eighth, then
advanced to third on Florida
State left fielder Alex Kossoff’s
fielding error. Auburn’s Whitney
Jordan made solid contact and
sent the ball back to Florida
State’s Jessica Warren, whose
throw home was a bit too late to
get Podany.
Florida State committed three
errors that produced three
unearned runs and left the bases
loaded in the bottom of the sixth
and seventh innings. The
Seminoles (55-10) left 12 runners
on base overall. Alex Powers, one
of Florida State’s best hitters, was
the final out in both the sixth and
seventh innings

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Corey
Seager’s compact swing is carrying the Los Angeles Dodgers while
the veterans try to find their
offense.
Seager homered twice — his
second multihomer game in three
days — and Yasmani Grandal hit
a three-run shot in a 12-6 victory
over the Atlanta Braves on
Sunday that completed a sweep
with the Dodgers’ seventh win in
a row at home.
“It’s one of those things that
you try and do every day, but it’s
working right now,” Seager said.
He went 3 for 5, drove in a
career-high four runs and scored
twice two days after hitting three
homers in Friday’s 4-2 win in the
series opener. The 22-year-old
rookie shortstop edged ahead of
Adrian Gonzalez (.284) as the
team’s top hitter with a .286 average.
“He is the perfect No. 2-hole
hitter for them,” Braves veteran
Jeff Francoeur said. “I can’t
believe how tall he is (6-foot-4)
and he’s got some pop and not
many shortstops have that. He’s
going to be an All-Star for a long
time.”
Scott Kazmir (5-3) overcame a
rocky first inning in which he
gave up two runs before settling
down and allowing three runs
and seven hits in five-plus
innings. He struck out five and
walked one before leaving early
because of cramping in his left
quadriceps.
“Even in warmups it felt like
my quad was tight,” said Kazmir,
who felt worse running the bases
after he went 2 for 3 with a run
scored. “Using my legs a little bit
more it shut down some things.
They got me out of there out of
precaution. I think I’ll be fine.”
Matt Wisler (2-6) took the loss
for the last-place Braves, who
dropped their fourth in a row and
were outscored 20-8 in the series.
“It was a tough series for us
considering that we played pretty
well in San Francisco and then
we get here and these guys are
swinging the bats well at home,”
interim manager Brian Snitker
said. “We just got to keep fighting.”
Wisler gave up eight runs and
nine hits in four innings — his
shortest outing so far — in his
first start at Dodger Stadium. The
right-hander struck out five and
walked three.
“I was pretty bad,” he said. “I

Rain postpones sunday’s
sprint Cup race at Pocono
LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Jeff
Gordon found only greatness,
not boredom, in Martin Truex
Jr’s record run at Charlotte
Motor Speedway.
In the broadcast booth
Sunday, the retired four-time
NASCAR champ said Truex’s
dominant feat last weekend
should be rewarded, not decried
as bad for the sport because of
the way he cruised against no
true competition in the CocaCola 600.
Truex’s record romp was one
of the stock car ages — he led
392 of 400 laps, set a Sprint Cup
record for miles led in a race with
588, and his 160.655 mph run in
the No. 78 Toyota made the race
the fastest one in Coke history.
Let the critics moan.
Truex was too busy celebrating his career renaissance.
“Definitely a great week,”
Truex said. “One of the best I’ve
ever had.”
Even better for Truex, he was
headed to Pocono Raceway, site
of his lone victory in 2015. Truex
dominated off late restarts down
the stretch to snap a 69-race
winless streak last June and
earn a berth in the Chase.
“I think typically past experience at a track is definitely a
good thing,” Truex said.
Truex and his Furniture Row
Racing team had to wait one
more day to aim for a repeat.
Rain washed out the NASCAR
Sprint Cup race and it will now
run at noon Monday. Brad
Keselowski is on the pole and
Truex starts 17th in Pocono’s
first Monday race since 2009.
The 2012 rain-shortened race at
Pocono was marred by lightning
strikes that killed one fan and
injured nine others.
This was the first postponed
race of the season and ninth
since 2011.
Truex’s win in Charlotte
earned him a spot in the Chase
for the Sprint Cup championship
— a spot he parlayed last year
into the four-driver field in the
finale to race for the title.
Truex has proved this season
that his success was no fluke.
His 809 laps led through the first
13 races are 242 more than his
total all of last season and his
two top-five finishes and six top10s aren’t far removed from his
2015 pace.
One a middling driver for two
other teams, Truex has watched
his career blossom at single-car
operation Furniture Row.
“I feel like I’m a better driver
than I’ve ever been,” he said.
“But you (need) a great team and

Gurley set and ready to thrive
in Rams’ Hollywood spotlight
OXNARD, Calif. (AP) — Todd
Gurley has lost more than 10
pounds since his rookie season
with the Rams ended, and he
isn’t exactly sure how it happened.
It wasn’t for a lack of burgers,
though.
Gurley’s new television commercial for the Carl’s Jr. fast
food chain is his boldest step yet
into the magnified spotlight on
him ever since the Rams went
Hollywood.
Alongside No. 1 pick Jared
Goff at quarterback, Gurley
could be the breakthrough star
of their move to Los Angeles —
but the franchise running back
realizes the Rams need to win,
too.
“This is my first offseason,
and I’m in Cali,” Gurley said on
a picture-perfect summer day
after participating in organized
team activities at the Rams’ temporary offseason home in coastal
Ventura County. “We just moved
here. I’m excited (to be) back
doing football and enjoying a
new city. It’s definitely been
exciting, for sure.”
The move to sunny Southern
California has been welcomed by
most players, and Gurley even
got here early: He started working out in Los Angeles shortly
after the Rams missed the playoffs in St. Louis.
That’s a big change from last
summer. While the months
before his rookie season were

saturday’s Games
DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — William
McGirt thought he hit it big when
he won the Cabarrus Classic and
pocketed $16,000, the secondlargest prize on the Tar Heel Tour.
That was in 2007, and it felt
like a lifetime ago compared with
the perks from winning the
Memorial on Sunday.
The victory was worth $1.53
million and a three-year exemption for a guy who once dreamed
of simply having a PGA Tour
card.
Waiting to congratulate him
was tournament host Jack
Nicklaus, who raved about the
bunker shot on the 18th hole
that kept McGirt in the playoff at
Muirfield Village, and the flop
shot from behind the 18th green
that led to a 6-foot putt and his
first PGA Tour victory in his
165th try.
U.S. Open qualifying? Take the
day off.
McGirt moves up to No. 43 in
the world and was assured a spot
in his first national championship.
“It will all sink in at some
point,” McGirt said.
This was a long time coming.
McGirt couldn’t count all the
mini-tours he played and the
self-doubts he ignored, including
a four-month stretch in which he
only saw his wife for four days.
But on Sunday against the
strongest field of the year for a
regular PGA Tour event, McGirt
made his first victory one to
remember.
He played the final 22 holes at
Muirfield Village without a bogey.
His final par in regulation was
the most important, a two-putt
from 65 feet for a 1-under 71 that
allowed him to join Jon Curran
(70) in a playoff at 15-under 273.
McGirt won the way Nicklaus
said he captured so many of his
73 times on the PGA Tour.
“I won half of my golf tournaments watching everyone else
self-destruct,” Nicklaus said.
“And that’s the way you win. I
saw him coming down the
stretch. I saw Jon coming down
the stretch. The two of them
played great. I felt that either one
of them could have won.”
Dustin Johnson dropped three
shots in four holes to start the
back nine, and a fourth bogey on
the 16th ended it for him. Matt
Kuchar was tied for the lead
when he returned from a 90minute rain delay and promptly
hit the lip of a fairway bunker
and made double bogey. He never
recovered. Emiliano Grillo had a
share of the lead until starting
the back nine with four straight
bogeys. Gary Woodland couldn’t
get up-and-down behind the
17th green and made bogey.
Curran, who knows Nicklaus
from being a member at his
Bear’s Club in south Florida,
looked like a winner when he hit

WilliAm mcGirt celebrAtes winning the Memorial in a
playoff Sunday, in Dublin, Ohio.
7-iron out of a fairway bunker on
the 17th hole to 7 feet for birdie
to join McGirt at 15 under.
McGirt was battling his swing
and trying to hang on. He saved
par from a bunker on the 17th.
He had the long two-putt for par
on the 18th hole. And he was in
trouble on the 18th in a playoff,
facing a deep bunker shot to a
back pin.
He expertly used the slope
behind the hole and watched his
shot roll back to a few feet to stay
alive.
“That was a long bunker shot,”
Nicklaus said.
“I don’t want to hit it again,”
McGirt replied.
Playing the 18th for the third
time, Curran misjudged the
strong wind at his back and went
into the gallery above the green,
and his pitch ran down the slope
well past the hole, leading to
bogey. McGirt also went long and
played a perfect flop shot to 6 feet
for the winner.
“Surprisingly, I felt no nerves
standing over that putt and
poured it right in the middle,”
McGirt said.
Johnson finished alone in third
— his fifth finish in the top 5 this
season — while Rory McIlroy (68)
tied for fourth with Kuchar (73),
Woodland (73) and J.B. Holmes
(69).
Jason Day, a Muirfield Village
member and No. 1 in the world,
got to within two shots of the lead
until he tumbled to a 74 and tied
for 27th, matching his best result
at the Memorial. Jordan Spieth
shot 73 and finished 12 shots
behind in a tie for 57th.
McGirt became the third
straight Memorial champion to
become a first-time PGA Tour
winner, and it was the third
straight playoff at Muirfield
Village.
In his 12 years as a pro, he has
played only one major, the 2012
PGA Championship. That was
meaningful, even though he
missed the cut, because he was
coming off a close call at the
Canadian Open in which he
didn’t look at the leaderboard the
final round. He ran into Tiger
Woods, told him what he did, and
he said Woods told him he was
foolish for not looking. McGirt
didn’t make that mistake twice.
And when it was over, his
name was at the top.
The U.S. Open is now on his
schedule. So is the PGA
Championship at the end of July,
and the Masters next April.
“I wondered for years if I would
ever get to the PGA Tour,” McGirt
said. “And then once you get out
here, OK, you’ve played 160
events. Are you ever going to win?
But I think you have to get your
nose bloodied some to learn how
to handle it, and I definitely had
my nose bloodied a few times.”

Warriors whip Cavaliers,
take 2-0 NBA Finals lead
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) —
Draymond Green emphatically
flexed his bulging biceps with big
plays on both ends of the floor,
and these Golden State Warriors
might just be far too strong for the
Cleveland Cavaliers.
That repeat title Golden State
has spoken of since the very start
more than eight months ago is
suddenly two wins from reality.
It will be the only way the
Warriors’ record-setting season
ends right. For now, they sure
seem unstoppable.
Green had 28 points with five 3pointers, seven rebounds and five
assists, while MVP Stephen Curry
scored 18 points despite foul trouble, and Golden State thoroughly
overwhelmed Cleveland 110-77 in
Game 2 of the NBA Finals on
Sunday night.
“There’s no point in celebrating
or jumping up and down saying,
‘Look at us.’ We’re two games
away from winning a championship, but we still have to go out
and get the job done,” Curry said.
“It’s a trap to think that we’ve figured things out, that we have the
perfect formula to beat Cleveland
and they have no chance in the
series. That’s not how we’re supposed to think.”
The 33-point win was the
Warriors’ most lopsided ever in a
finals game — and they have won
the first two by a combined 48
points.
“They just beat us,” LeBron
James said. “We didn’t win anything. No points of the game did
we beat them in anything.”
Once the Splash Brothers
found their shooting touch,
Cleveland couldn’t keep up. Klay
Thompson got hot after halftime
to finish with 17 points as Golden
State became the first team to go

Djokovic
From Page 11
“He’s there, for sure — one of
the best now,” said Marian
Vajda, Djokovic’s co-coach with
Boris Becker, one of the many
stars of the sport who never won
the French Open. “Hard to say
who’s the greatest.”
Of Djokovic’s 11 career losses
at Roland Garros, six came
against Nadal, one against
Federer. Three came in finals,
against Nadal in 2012 and 2014,
and against Stan Wawrinka a
year ago, when Djokovic’s eyes
welled with tears and the arena
feted him with an unusually long
ovation as he accepted his runner’s-up plate.
Djokovic’s 2016 path was
unencumbered by any member
of that trio: Federer withdrew
before the tournament and Nadal
before the third round, both citing injury; Wawrinka lost to
Murray.
Still, Djokovic’s most imposing
adversary might very well have
been the knowledge that the
tournament that meant the most
to him was the only tournament
he couldn’t conquer.
Until now.
“Winning it, you know, I felt
it,” Djokovic said. “I felt the tension and excitement. All the emotions. You name it.”
When Djokovic sketched a
valentine to his fans and then
laid down on his back, it repeated a gesture made famous by
three-time French Open champion Gustavo Kuerten.
“He asked me (for) permission,” Kuerten said with a laugh.
On Sunday — the weather
overcast but dry, unlike so much
of the rainy past two weeks —
the first choruses of “No-le! Nole!” accompanied Djokovic’s
entrance to the court. They
echoed when he skipped to the
baseline for the opening game —
and, louder still, when he broke
to start.
It sounded as if this were
Belgrade, rather than a neutral
site, and Murray complained
that spectators were calling out
between serves.
They really raised a ruckus
when a Murray serve was called
a fault by a linesman, immediately overruled by chair umpire
Damien Dumusois. Because
Djokovic’s return was out,
Dumusois declared Murray led
30-love. Djokovic wanted the
point replayed. Loud boos and
whistles from the stands delayed
play for a full minute.
Murray, trying to become
Britain’s first male champion in
Paris since 1935, soon closed the
opening set. Djokovic was off —
“Nerves kicked in,” he acknowledged afterward — and his forehand offered up seven unforced
errors before Murray made one.
Maybe Murray exhaled after
grabbing the set. Djokovic clearly
found a reserve of resolve. The
dynamic shifted completely.
Murray’s first-serve percentage
dipped and he quickly fell behind
3-0.
“No-le! No-le!”
Now Djokovic was the domineering one, yanking an increasingly exhausted Murray this way
and that with just the right shot
at just the right moment, creating a 24-6 edge in winners over
the middle two sets.
“Flawless tennis,” Djokovic
called it.
Murray’s take?
“He started,” Murray said, “to
free up a little bit more.”
When Djokovic slid to reach a
drop shot and somehow crafted a
cross-court backhand winner at
an impossible angle to go up 4-1
in the third, he raised his right
index finger.
“No-le! No-le!”
Djokovic broke again to begin
the fourth set and, although he
had a few missteps in the closing
games, his arduous journey to
history was soon complete.
Auburn
From Page 11
State coach Lonni Alameda said.
“We had the right people up with
the bases loaded. We had our
chances. That was the game.”
Auburn was in control early.
Carlee Wallace hit a three-run
homer in the first inning, Jade
Rhodes hit a three-run shot in
the third, and Kasey Cooper had
a solo homer in the fourth for the
Tigers.
Auburn led 7-4 in the sixth,
and Florida State had two on and
one out when Auburn center
fielder Victoria Draper stretched
out and robbed Morgan
Klaevemann of what looked like a
sure double.
“Well, when I saw it go off the
bat, I thought, ‘This is going to do
some damage,’” Wallace said. “I
was kind of thinking, ‘Oh, no,’
and she’s like a golden retriever
out there. It’s ridiculous.”
Alameda said there was no
shame in going out in a game
that was so competitive.
“Tip your hat to Auburn,” she
said. “They’re a great ballclub.
They’ve done a great job there,
and it’s just fun to play a competitive game like that. Of course,
you want to come out on the winning side, but it is so fun to be in
those moments, and that’s what
you train for.”
ahead 2-0 in the finals since the
Lakers in 2009 against Orlando.
Now, the series shifts to
Cleveland, and James and the
Cavs must show up for Game 3 on
Wednesday in front of their titlestarved fans down 2-0 to the
defending champs and with forward Kevin Love dealing with a
head injury.
“We’ve got to be tougher,” Cavs
coach Tyronn Lue said.
The NBA said Love experienced
dizziness early in the second half
and left for the locker room to be
re-examined, then was placed in
the NBA’s concussion protocol. He
hadn’t exhibited any symptoms
before then, even after taking an
elbow to the back of the head from
Harrison Barnes in the second
quarter and going down for several minutes before returning following a timeout. He immediately
made a baseline 3-pointer for the
Cavs’ first basket in nearly 5½
minutes.
After a scoreless first quarter
when he missed all five shots but
had five assists, James scored 14
of his 19 points in the second and
also finished with nine assists and
eight rebounds, but seven
turnovers — and he took the
blame. James’ teams had won
nine straight postseason Game 2s
after losing the series opener dating back to a loss in the 2008
Eastern Conference semifinals to
Boston.
“I’m definitely surprised at the
margin of victory tonight,”
Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “It
happens in the NBA, sometimes
things get away from you.
Sometimes shots go in, sometimes
they don’t. ... Everything changes
when we go to Cleveland, we know
that.”
After Curry and Thompson
combined for only 20 points in
Thursday’s 104-89 Game 1 win
on 8-for-27 shooting and the
bench carried the load, they each
hit four 3-pointers and went 13
for 24. And Curry got a postgame
treat: He exchanged jerseys with
Barcelona and Brazil soccer star
Neymar.
Green shot 11 for 20 and made
5 of 8 3-pointers, sparking a suggestion he might apply to be a
Splash Brother alongside fellow
All-Stars Curry and Thompson.
“Stop it,” Green said with a
chuckle.
“Tonight, he’s one of us,”
Thompson said.
The Warriors’ 87 victories
matched the 1995-96 Chicago
Bulls, the team Golden State
topped for the most regular-season victories in NBA history with
73.
Andrew Bogut had four of his
five blocks — Golden State had
nine overall — in the first 7:15
and received a standing ovation
when he came out with 3:50 left in
the first. He went to the locker
room late in the quarter after having hit his hand on the rim early
and grimacing in pain.
Green credited the defense for
holding down James and Co.
While the outspoken swingman
insists he just wants rings and
isn’t yet ready to consider the
Warriors among the best of all
time, the typically quiet
Thompson let loose a little.
“We’re better than the
Showtime Lakers,” he quipped, a
friendly jab at former power forward father, Mychal.
In 10th NBA Finals, ‘Coach’ Van
Gundy clearly a broadcaster
(AP) — Jeff Van Gundy was riding a bus bound for the border, far
from the glamorous side of NBA
life.
Teams take charter flights to
ritzy hotels, and Van Gundy
craves the right opportunity to
run one again. But he also likes
the job he has, providing time for
friends and family that coaching
never could.
So there he is, still sitting courtside at ABC’s NBA Finals broadcast table, far longer than colleagues expected and longer than
anyone else in his role ever has.
“The good part is I enjoy what I
do, more so I enjoy who I do it
with, and I’m really blessed,” Van
Gundy said.
This is his 10th finals, the most
for a TV analyst. Before Van
Gundy and teammate Mark
Jackson, working his eighth,
nobody had done more than six.
Jackson played for Van Gundy,
calls him Coach, and is surprised
Van Gundy is still sitting there
next to him. So is play-by-play
commentator Mike Breen, his
longtime friend who notes just
how long it’s been since that
coach title actually fit.
“It’s now his career, he’s now a
broadcaster,” Breen said. “As
much as he doesn’t want to admit
it, he’s a member of the media and
he’s a full-time broadcaster now
for a decade, which makes me
delighted because he can’t weasel
out of it anymore and say that
he’s not a member of the media.”
Braves
From Page 11
was a bad overall effort by me.”
Grandal broke the game open
in the third with his three-run
blast for a 7-2 lead after Joc
Pederson’s RBI single.
Seager led off the fourth with a
solo shot on Wisler’s first pitch to
make it 8-2. In the fifth, he sliced
a two-out, RBI single to shallow
left, extending the Dodgers’ lead
to 9-2.
“Anytime we got the ball up in
the zone against him, he put a big
swing on it,” Wisler said. “I know
he’s a rookie, but he’s a great hitter.”
Seager wasn’t done yet.
He slammed a two-run homer
— his team-leading 14th — with
two outs in the seventh to make it
12-3. It was Seager’s third multihomer game of the season.
“It keeps happening every day
and I can get used to it,” Dodgers
manager Dave Roberts said. “He
has a short, sound swing, power
to all fields. It starts with his
pitch recognition.”
Unsung players stepping up
big time in Stanley Cup Final
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) —
This is a Stanley Cup Final
filled with stars who have won
the Hart Trophy, Olympic gold
medals and numerous other
awards.
With players like Sidney
Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Joe
Thornton and Joe Pavelski,
the final features some of the
biggest names in hockey.
The one place where those
players haven’t showed up so
far is on the goal-scoring
sheet. In a series that has featured three straight one-goal
games all decided either in the
final three minutes of regulation or overtime, some of the
lesser-known players have
delivered the goals.
“You look through these
playoffs
and
third-line,
fourth-line guys have stepped
up for both teams and scored
big goals,” Sharks center
Logan Couture said Sunday.
“It’s not necessarily that the
big guns have scored the huge
goals for both teams. You
need that when you get to this
point.”
Sharks rookie Joonas
Donskoi was the latest to get
on that list when he scored
the overtime winner in San
Jose’s 3-2 victory in Game 3
on Saturday night that cut
Pittsburgh’s series lead to 2-1.
Game 4 is Monday night in
San Jose.
Donskoi matched the overtime goal scored just one
game earlier by Penguins
rookie Conor Sheary. Before
that, it had been 30 years
since a rookie had scored in
overtime in the final when
Montreal’s Brian Skrudland
did it in Game 2 against
Calgary.
But Donskoi and Sheary
are far from the only unusual
suspects to score in the first
three games. Sharks defenseman Justin Braun has two
goals in the past two games,
matching his total from the
previous 40 contests.
“I’m happy I can finally chip
in offensively,” Braun said. “A
lot of other guys have done a lot
of heavy lifting to get us here.
I’m just trying to do my part.”
Pittsburgh defenseman Ben
Lovejoy, who has 15 goals in
334 career regular season
games, scored one of the
Penguins’ goals in Game 3
and set up the other that was
deflected in by Patric
Hornqvist.
Nick Bonino got the Game 1
winner for Pittsburgh when
the other goals were scored by
rookies Sheary and Bryan
Rust.
And after three games,
After Atlanta took a 2-0 lead in
the first on a RBI double by
Francoeur and a RBI single by
Nick Markakis, the Dodgers tied
the game at 2 in the bottom of the
inning. Gonzalez had a RBI double and Howie Kendrick added a
RBI single, both with two outs.
Hernandez put the Dodgers
ahead for good in the second,
homering for a 3-2 lead.
Braves defensive replacement
Brandon Snyder hit a solo homer
in the ninth, his first since July
29, 2013, with Boston.
Thompson went 1 for 3 with
two runs scored. He’s scored at
least one run in a career-high
four straight games and is batting
.345 in 23 home games so far.
UP NEXT
Braves: RHP Williams Perez (21, 3.86 ERA) starts the opener of
a three-game set at San Diego.
Dodgers: RHP Mike Bolsinger
(1-2, 4.20) starts the opener of a
three-game
series
against
Colorado.
From Page 11
players like Crosby, Malkin,
Thornton, Pavelski, Kris
Letang, Logan Couture and
Brent Burns are all still looking for their first goals.
“You just try to worry about
yourself and make sure you’re
doing your job and as a team
you’re doing the things necessary to give yourself a chance
to win games,” Crosby said.
“It’s tight. Like I keep seeing
year after year, there’s a small
margin of error. Just make
sure you’re competing and
give yourself a chance to create and ultimately produce.”
It hasn’t been like those
players haven’t performed
well. Crosby was dominant
the first two games and set up
a pair of goals that helped
Pittsburgh take the 2-0 lead.
But he got much less generated on the road when the
Sharks were able to match top
defensive pair Marc-Edouard
Vlasic and Justin Braun
against him consistently.
Even a few shifts with Malkin
couldn’t generate many
chances for Pittsburgh.
“We’re playing against good
defensemen,” Malkin said.
“They play so close and so
tight, it’s tough to shoot sometimes.”
Thornton had a few good
chances late, especially after
Couture joined him and
Pavelski on San Jose’s top
line. But Pavelski, who leads
the NHL with 13 playoff goals,
has been mostly silent with no
points and only four shots on
goal through three games.
“It’s tough this time of
year,” Sharks coach Peter
DeBoer said. “Every round,
he’s getting a lot of attention,
just like Brent Burns is getting a lot of attention, just like
Jumbo is getting a lot of
attention. That’s not an easy
role to play. I have no doubt
he’s going to break through
here. He has all year for us.
It’s just a matter of time.”
One of the factors limiting
Pavelski’s effectiveness has
been Pittsburgh’s propensity
to block shots. The Penguins
blocked 38 shots alone in
Game 3, including 12 from
Burns. With fewer point shots
getting to the net, Pavelski
has been unable to utilize his
elite hand-eye coordination to
deflect pucks like he was so
successfully the first three
rounds.
“We’re
creating
some
chances,” Pavelski said. “It’s
just that end result hasn’t
been there. You just stay with
it, keep trying to have the
puck and play with it and get
open. Try to get a few more.”

Sprint Cup

against these drivers against
these teams. You’ve got to have it
all.”
The June 2015 Pocono race
was replayed on Fox Sports 1 —
spoiler alert, Truex won — on
Sunday and showed him breaking through for his first Sprint
Cup victory in two years.
The win was particularly emotional for Truex. He slapped the
top of the No. 78, thrust his right
fist toward the sky and bounded
straight into his girlfriend’s
arms. He hugged and kissed
Sherry Pollex and lifted her into
the air, a needed celebration for
the couple as she fought ovarian
cancer.
Pollex, diagnosed with Stage 3
ovarian cancer in August 2014,
is in remission.
“I went through a lot,” Truex

said. “We went through a lot.”
Truex is a hunting buddy with
Dale Earnhardt Jr. and his easygoing personality has made him
a popular driver in the garage.
Rival drivers, owners, crew members popped by for high-fives and
congratulatory greetings on pit
road last year.
After Charlotte, it was even
more texts and tweets to read
after claiming his little slice of
history.
“I still just can’t believe how
many laps we led, and just the
miles,” he said. “Just thinking
about all the greats that have
come and gone through NASCAR
— all of our heroes, my heroes —
to think that I’ve led more laps in
a race than anyone ever has or
more miles is just a really cool
thing for me.”
the veteran assistant’s style.
“It feels good being back out
here,” Gurley said. “Last year
this time, I wasn’t.”
Indeed, Gurley’s 2015 rise to
become the Offensive Rookie of
the Year began with several
months in which he couldn’t
practice regularly with his teammates.
He was limited largely to
straight-line running in the
months of offseason workouts
after the Rams risked the 10th
overall pick on his game-breaking talent. Gurley stood on the
sidelines with the Rams’ athletic
trainers while his teammates
practiced, and he didn’t play in
their first two regular-season
games.
After a quiet start in their
third game, Gurley literally hit
his stride and quickly captivated
the league with his elusiveness
and speed. He had four straight
100-yard games before settling
into a steadily productive groove,
finishing with 1,106 yards rush-
ing — 4.8 yards per carry — and
10 touchdowns.
Gurley doesn’t turn 22 years
old until August, and he feels
he’ll be more useful as a vocal
leader in the weight room than
on the field. He is focused on
refining his technique while
increasing his role in the Rams’
passing offense, which was the
NFL’s worst last season.
Gurley has already secured a
few endorsements beyond the
Carl’s Jr. deal, including a sponsorship with a candy company.
More deals are undoubtedly
coming in a city that loves a
charismatic winner — and just
lost Kobe Bryant to retirement.
And Gurley isn’t looking to
increase his intake of cheeseburgers and candy to recoup
that lost weight, either.
“It’s probably just having the
first offseason not doing anything for about a month or two,”
Gurley said of his diminished
bulk. “I feel fine how I am. I’m
not going to add weight.”

Happy Birthday: You need to take
more time out for yourself. Focus on
any personal changes you want to
make. Stepping back from situations
By Ned Classics
By Conrad Day
that are less than satisfactory will help
you see clearly and allow you greater
freedom to rethink and restart. Protect
against indulgence and letting others
influence you. Be the master of your
own life and determine what's best for
you. Your numbers are 4, 17, 24, 27,
31, 37, 45.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take
care of personal matters on your own.
Interference will leave a sour taste in
your mouth. The more self-sufficient
you are, the easier it will be to make
decisions that will benefit you. A physical change is best handled cautiously.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Observe
and respond. A partnership has the
potential to grow into a successful collaboration. Share your plans with
friends, relatives and those who will be
affected by your decisions. An opportunity to advance is heading your way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don't
count on receiving help from others.
Prepare and organize how you want to
execute your future plans and do so on
your own. Someone you know will be all
talk and no action. Look out for your
own best interests.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): The
more cooperative you are, the easier it
will be to manufacture the scenario you
want to see unfold. Speak from the
heart and others will take notice. A
unique look at an old idea will spark an
opportunity to forge ahead.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take care of
your personal interests and responsibilities. If you leave your affairs to someone else, you will be disappointed.
Bring about personal changes that will
enable you to gain better control of
future prospects.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Get
involved in group endeavors or situations that will provide you with the information necessary to make quality
moves. Refuse to let anyone control
your life or dominate your time. Take
responsibility for your own actions, not
someone else's.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Strive for
personal perfection in all that you do,
and you'll make it impossible for anyone
to make you look bad. A serious
approach will enable you to make personal choices that are in your best interests. Romance is on the rise.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Listen
and learn. Take part in community
events or other cultural activities that
will open your eyes to how others live.
Residential changes will bring about
positive changes and inspiration. Share
your plans with someone you love.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
You will have to watch your spending
and avoid sharing personal information
with people who may wish to pry into
your affairs. Don't mistake snooping for
gestures of friendliness. Size up situations based on facts. Romantic encounters are best handled carefully.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Keep life lively. Speak up, share
thoughts and express what's on your
agenda. You can make a difference in
your personal and professional dealings if you strive for equality, understanding and cooperation. Set guidelines and stick to them.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do
what you enjoy most. Concentrate on
home, family and turning something
you do into a moneymaking pastime. A
change in the way you make a living will
lift your spirits and help build your confidence. Romance is encouraged.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20):
Helping others is an act of kindness, but
before you offer assistance, find out
what's required. Someone is likely to
take advantage of you if you don't ask
questions or understand what is being
offered. Protect your assets.
Birthday Baby: You are astute and
versatile. You are a flirt and a risk-taker.

Monday Best Bets
8 p.m. on (WDEF)
Mom
Having apparently helped Jodi (guest star
Emily Osment) get her life back on track,
Christy and Bonnie (Anna Faris, Allison
Janney) eagerly — maybe too eagerly —
seek another person they can assist in
“Mozzarella Sticks and a Gay Piano Bar.”
Judy Greer (“Married”) guest stars as their
next candidate. Mimi Kennedy and Jaime
Pressly also star.
9 p.m. on (LIFE)
Devious Maids
“Once More Unto the Bleach,” the Season
4 premiere, opens in the aftermath of the
inferno that destroyed the Powell mansion
in the Season 3 finale. That tragedy leaves
Evelyn Powell (Rebecca Wisocky) devastated as her previous life of privilege literally
goes up in smoke before her eyes. Marisol
(Ana Ortiz) somewhat cautiously lends her
support to this woman who once was her
nemesis. Carmen’s (Roselyn Sanchez)
nascent singing career hits another speed
bump.
9 p.m. on (TNT)
Rizzoli & Isles
The premiere of the seventh and final season of this police procedural picks up the
action in the aftermath of a shooting that
figured in the Season 6 cliffhanger, as the
team tries desperately to find Alice Sands
(guest star Annabeth Gish) and bring her to
justice before she destroys Jane’s (Angie
Harmon) life with her twisted obsession in
“Two Shots: Move Forward.” The story continues in another new episode that immediately follows. Sasha Alexander also stars.
10 p.m. on (LIFE)
UnREAL
Since it’s been taken a lot more seriously
than many of Lifetime’s series and movies,
it’s no surprise that this Peabody-winning
drama returns for Season 2. The show
again targets actual dating competition
programs — and you can name them as
fast as we can — with an African American
bachelor at the center of the fictional “Everlasting” this time. Shiri Appleby and Constance Zimmer are back as producers Rachel and Quinn. Craig Bierko still co-stars.
10:01 p.m. on (WTVC)
Mistresses
Harry (Brett Tucker) gets a visitor — and
the series gets a new cast regular — as
Tabrett Bethell plays his sister, Kate, in the
new episode “Mistaken Identity.” Her arrival
complicates Harry’s relationship with Joss
(Jes Macallan), especially when Kate reveals problems in her marital engagement.
April (Rochelle Aytes) gets a big professional chance, while Karen (Yunjin Kim) debates her own occupation. Jerry O’Connell
and Tia Mowry-Hardrict guest star.

You can agree or not: We live by God’s grace
Sometime back I ran across a very
interesting quote about death by the
famous American actor Joseph Jefferson
(1829-1905), who said, “We are but tenants — and shortly the great Landlord
will give us notice that our lease has
expired.”
To be sure, that's a novel way of looking at death, but it's true; at some point
in time our lease will be up and we will
all die.
One of the disadvantages of getting old
is that, as the years pass, many of our
best friends will die before we do. You
know, in one way death is a funny thing,
not laughing funny, but peculiar or hard
to understand. One day you are with
someone and even make plans for the
future, but they die and you never see
them again, unless you see them in
Heaven.
One of the reasons death is on my
mind is because over the past few years
we have witnessed more death and
GUEST
ColUmniST

Davidson
destruction, all across the world and
here in our country, than I can ever
remember in my lifetime. We have lost
some close friends to death here in our
community. Also the tragedy of the
World Trade Center, war in the Balkans,
Afghanistan and Iraq, the tsunami in
Southeast Asia, the earthquake in
Pakistan and the major hurricanes that
hit the Gulf Coast, especially the city of
New Orleans, have all taken a great toll
in human life.
What this says to me, and I hope it's
something that you will at least think
about if you have not already, is that we
live by God's grace. In addition to being
a feminine name, the word grace means
"unmerited favor" or something we didn't
do anything to earn.
From the moment we were born, we
have no guarantee that we will live
another hour, day, week, month or year.
We just live by God's grace. To me, and
this is something you will have to decide
on your own, we should be grateful for
each day we have, and do our best to
make the most of it.
There are a couple of verses in the
Bible that talk about this, and if you are
not familiar with these verses I hope you
will take a few minutes and look them
up. In James 5:13-14, it says, "Yet you
do not know what your life will be like
tomorrow. You are just a vapor that
appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, 'If
the Lord wills, we shall live and also do
this or that.’”
I heard one of the announcers during
the 2005 Sugar Bowl game make a statement that really hit the nail on the head.
The Sugar Bowl has been played in New
Orleans every single year, without exception, since 1935, but Hurricane Katrina
changed that and the 2005 game was
played in Atlanta. The announcer said,
"Next year, God willing, we will be back in
New Orleans." The announcer understood
that if God had other plans, the game
would be played somewhere else, if it
would be played at all.
Now I am not saying that we should
make the statement “if God wills" every
time we say something or make a statement about our future plans, but we
should always have an awareness that
God is the One in control, and we only
live by His grace. When it comes to
death, it's hard for me to understand
why He takes godly, righteous people
and leaves those behind who are vile
and evil. The only thing I have ever been
able to come up with is He is leaving
them behind to give them a chance to
repent, and come to Him before it's too
late.
Every so often I get letters from atheists and agnostics who do not believe in
God and I always respect their views and
respond in kindness. However, all the
polls I have seen indicate that more than
85 percent of the American people do
believe in God. We are people of faith.
That's our heritage and also where our
hope comes from.
While this is personal, and you do not
have to agree, when it comes to my
hope, these words to a song say it all:
"My hope is built on nothing less, than
Jesus’ blood and righteousness."

Alabama landfill activists seek
dismissal of $30M slander suit
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) —
Four activists from one of
Alabama’s poorest communities
have asked a federal judge to dismiss a $30 million slander suit
filed by Georgia companies that
claim they were maligned by
complaints about a landfill that
accepted tons of coal ash from a
Tennessee Valley Authority spill.
The American Civil Liberties
Union filed court documents saying the four Perry County residents — Esther Calhoun,
Benjamin Eaton, Ellis B. Long
and Mary B. Schaeffer — were
only exercising their First
Amendment rights in protesting
Arrowhead Landfill at Uniontown.
The four argued that some
claims cited by Canton, Georgiabased landfill operator Green
Group Holdings and a subsidiary,
Howling Coyote LLC, concern
nothing more than posts on a
Facebook page. They also argued
that no one has knowingly made
false claims about the landfill’s
safety.
The companies filed suit in federal court in Mobile in April
claiming they were being slandered by false allegations and
protests over 4 million tons of
coal ash waste shipped from
Tennessee.
The activists compared the
lawsuit to one filed against the
National Association for the

by white-owned businesses seeking to end a civil rights boycott
that began in Mississippi in
1966.
“Unfortunately, this is far from
the first time that a for-profit corporation has sued black citizens
for having the temerity to organize against businesses that they
believe perpetuate racial injustice,” the four argued.
Landfill attorney Michael
Smith said he was reading the
motion and would respond later.
For years, the companies have
defended the landfill as a safe
location to dispose of wastes
including coal ash that polluted
two rivers and hundreds of acres
of land when a dike failed at
TVA’s Kingston Fossil Plant in
2008.
Activists contend coal ash
shipments and pollution from the
landfill have harmed surrounding
Perry County, where unemployment is typically high. The county
was in the heart of the cotton belt
in the antebellum South, and
nearly 70 percent of its 10,500
residents are black.
Opponents have blamed the
landfill for environmental contamination for years and have
compared the landfill operators to
slave owners, claiming the operation is desecrating a cemetery
that dates from the 1800s.
The companies contend the
landfill is safe and approved by
the Environmental Protection
Agency, and they dismiss claims
that coal ash shipped on trains to
Perry County contaminated the
area. In March, the owners
agreed to donate land and help
protect the old cemetery, which
borders the landfill.
The lawsuit contends a group
called Black Belt Citizens

has spread misinformation and
untruths including claims that
the landfill is polluting water in
the area. The group’s website lists

vice president; Long as secretary

TODAY IN HISTORY
(AP) Today is Monday, June 6,
the 158th day of 2016. There are
208 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On June 6, 1944, during World
War II, Operation Overlord, aimed
at liberating German-occupied
western Europe, commenced as
Allied forces stormed the beaches
of Normandy, France, on “D-Day.”
On this date:
In 1799, American politician
and orator Patrick Henry died at
Red Hill Plantation in Virginia.
In 1816, a snowstorm struck
the northeastern U.S., heralding
what would become known as the
“Year Without a Summer.”
In 1844, the Young Men’s
Christian Association was founded in London.
In 1925, Walter Percy Chrysler
founded the Chrysler Corp.
In 1939, the first Little League
game was played as Lundy
Lumber defeated Lycoming Dairy

in
Williamsport,
Pennsylvania.
In 1955, the U.S. Post Office
introduced regular certified mail
service.
In 1966, black activist James
Meredith was shot and wounded
as he walked along a Mississippi
highway to encourage black voter
registration.
In 1968, Sen. Robert F.
Kennedy died at Good Samaritan
Hospital in Los Angeles, a day
after he was shot by Sirhan
Bishara Sirhan.
In 1978, California voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition
13, a primary ballot initiative calling for major cuts in property
taxes.
In 1985, authorities in Brazil
exhumed a body later identified
as the remains of Dr. Josef
Mengele, the notorious “Angel of
Death” of the Nazi Holocaust.
In 1994, President Bill Clinton
joined leaders from America’s
World War II allies to mark the
50th anniversary of the D-Day
invasion of Normandy. A China
Northwest Airlines passenger jet
crashed near Xian, killing all 160
people on board.
In 2001, Democrats formally
assumed control of the U.S.
Senate after the decision of
Vermont Republican James
Jeffords to become an independent.
Ten years ago: Veterans Affairs
Secretary Jim Nicholson acknowledged a stolen computer contained personal data on about 2.2

States had a rare moment of
agreement, using similar language to describe “positive steps”
toward an accord on a package of
incentives aimed at persuading
Tehran to suspend uranium
enrichment. Soul musician Billy
Preston died in Scottsdale,
Arizona, at age 59.
Five years ago: After days of

sweepstakes.
(Santorum suspended his campaign in April 2012.)
Dear Annie: My wife and I are
expecting our fourth child. She is
a firm believer in breastfeeding
and plans to do so when our baby
arrives. Our oldest child, “Travis,”
was 3 years old when his first sibling was born. My wife continued
to breastfeed him along with the
baby, and continued to do so
through the birth of our third
child, born when Travis was 5. I
thought it was a little odd, but I
did not object.
Travis is now 13 years old. A few
weeks ago, he asked his mom if he
could breastfeed like he did when
he was little. He told her he
remembers it and loved how safe
he felt. He said he wants to feel
that closeness with her again.
When she told me, I thought she
was joking. But she was dead serious and had already told him
“yes.” I do not agree with this and
have expressed my concerns.
Travis is a boy in the middle of
puberty who has suddenly become
girl crazy. I cannot help but feel
there is a sexual component to
this. I had hoped her obstetrician
would side with me, but we asked
about it, the doctor replied, “I
admit it is unusual to breastfeed a
child at that age, but it is not likely
it will harm him.”
Am I unreasonable to think a
teenage boy doesn’t belong anywhere near his mom’s breasts?
Please help me learn to accept this
or to get my wife to rethink it. She
has agreed to listen to your advice.
— An Unreasonable Husband
Dear Husband: The obstetrician
was undoubtedly responding solely to the nutritional benefits of
breastfeeding. No, the milk will not
harm him. But emotionally and
psychologically, your wife is setting Travis up for years of psychotherapy.
It’s not like your wife has been
breastfeeding Travis for the past
13 years. This is a recent
request. Yes, of course, there is a
sexual component, even if it’s
subconscious and unintentional.
The boy is 13. Girls are on his
mind. We guarantee female
breasts are on his mind. Mom
should not let him practice on
her. It can create all kinds of
physical sensations and attachments, not only for him, but also
for Mom, none of which is emotionally healthy. Mom - if you’re
listening, please put your child
first. Indulging this request doesn’t do either of you any good. It’s
OK to say “no.” Simply tell Travis
that he’s too old to do what
babies do. Surely, you can help
him feel safe and loved in a more
age-appropriate way. You also
can discuss this with Travis’
pediatrician, who might have a
better handle on a teenage boy’s
emotional health.
Dear Annie: When I eat out, am
I supposed to cut a hamburger in
half before eating? I have done
this, but it makes it so messy to
eat. — M.
Dear M.: Sandwiches (especially hamburgers) can be eaten
whole, unless doing so would
require a bib or a larger mouth.
Most folks would cut a grilled
cheese sandwich, for example, but
if cutting a hamburger makes it
too sloppy, then by all means,
don’t do it.

TENNESSEE BRIEFS
Tennessee Health Department has
tips for summer activity
NASHVILLE (AP) — The
Tennessee Department of Health
is reminding residents about
steps to take as they spend more
time outdoors and in the sun
with summer approaching.
The department says preventing tick and mosquito bites is
always important but especially
so this year with concerns about
Zika virus, which can cause birth
defect. The agency says apply
insect repellant after sunscreen
and repeat often. Also wear loose
and light-colored clothing and
tuck in pants legs and shirts to
form a barrier.
To avoid overexposure to the
sun, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF rating of 30 or
higher, wear a hat and sunglasses and remember the sun is
strongest between 10 a.m. and 4
p.m.
And to avoid dehydrating,
drink cold water when you feel
thirsty and limit caffeinated and
sugary drinks.
Ruling awaited in Tennessee bank
extortions case
KNOXVILLE (AP) — The FBI
and a Pennsylvania man accused
in a series of bank extortions are
awaiting a ruling in federal court
on the legality of search warrants
in the case.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Clifford
Shirley hasn’t said when he
might rule in the case against 43year-old Michael Benanti of Lake
Harmony, Pennsylvania. The
Knoxville News Sentinel reports
Shirley said after a hearing last
week that finding the first search
warrant bad would make all of
them bad.
Benanti is charged in a 23count indictment accusing him of
kidnappings, carjackings, bank
robbery and extortions. The
charges arise from an alleged plot
with co-defendant Brian Witham
to kidnap bank executives and
their families and forcing them to
withdraw money from their
banks.
One of the kidnappings
occurred in Knoxville, one in Oak
Ridge and one in Elizabethton.
Authorities investigating Bledsoe
County Jail inmate’s death
PIKEVILLE (AP) — Tennessee
authorities say they are investigating the weekend death of an
inmate at the Bledsoe County
Jail.
Media outlets report the
Tennessee
Bureau
of
Investigation identified the
inmate
as
33-year-old
Christopher Axmacher. He was
found unresponsive in his cell
Saturday.
The TBI says efforts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful, and
he was pronounced dead at a
hospital.
Autopsy will be performed
in Memphis officer’s death
MEMPHIS (AP) — A man suspected in a downtown Memphis
shooting that left three people
injured fled in a stolen vehicle
that fatally struck a police officer,
police said Sunday.
Justine Welch, 21, faces multiple charges that include firstdegree murder, vehicular homicide, attempted first-degree murder, evading arrest and theft of
property over $10,000, police
spokeswoman
Sgt.
Karen
Rudolph said in a news release.
The release did not disclose
Welch's hometown.
Welch was being held at the
Shelby County Jail. Jail records
didn't indicate whether Welch
has an attorney.
Officer Verdell Smith, 46, was
pronounced dead from his
injuries at 10:43 p.m. Saturday,
Memphis Police Department
Director Mike Rallings said during a news conference.
Police said two people were
taken to the hospital after being
shot at about 10 p.m. Saturday
by the suspect, who then ran to a
retail complex and shot a male
employee.
Memphis police spokeswoman
Sgt. Karen Rudolph said Sunday
the 21-year old employee has
been released from a hospital,
while the other two victims, ages
39 and 57, remained in critical
condition. Their names weren't
released.
Police said the suspect then
fled in a vehicle and later struck
Smith, who had been working
with other officers to clear the
area. The suspect then fled
briefly on foot but was apprehended by police and taken to a
hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Rudolph said the vehicle driven by the suspect was reported
stolen earlier in the day. She said
four incident reports were filed by
police due to the multiple locations, and an investigation is
ongoing.
Rallings said Smith was an 18year police veteran who is survived by a father, fiance, son and
two daughters.
Rallings said the department
mourned the loss not just of
Smith but of other officers killed
in the line of duty, including
Officers Sean Bolton in 2015 and
Martoiya Lang in 2012. In addition, off-duty Memphis officer
Terence Olridge was fatally shot
last October.
NPR journalist David Gilkey,
translator killed on assignment
WASHINGTON (AP) — David
Gilkey, a veteran news photographer and video editor for National
Public Radio, and an Afghan
translator, Zabihullah Tamanna,
were killed while on assignment
in southern Afghanistan on
Sunday, the network says.
Gilkey and Tamanna were
traveling with an Afghan army
unit near Marjah in Helmand
province when the convoy came
under fire and their vehicle was
struck, the network’s spokeswoman, Isabel Lara, said in a
statement. Two other NPR journalists, Tom Bowman and producer Monika Evstatieva, were
traveling with them and were not
hurt.
Secretary of State John Kerry
called the attack that killed
Gilkey and Tamanna “a grim
reminder of the danger that continues to face the Afghan people,
the dedication of Afghan national
defense and security forces to
securing their country, and of the
courage of intrepid journalists —
and their interpreters — who are
trying to convey that important
story to the rest of the world.”
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani
condemned the attack, calling it
cowardly and “completely against
all the principles and values of
Islam and humanity, and against
all international laws.”
In a statement issued by the
presidential palace Monday,
Ghani was quoted as saying the
Taliban ignored the differences
between military, civilians and
journalists, killing Gilkey and
Tamanna as they prepared their
reports on the war.
Ghani on Monday visited
Helmand province, where the
fatal attack on Gilkey and
Tamanna’s their vehicle took
place, offering his condolences to
their families.
