Sheriff, Nulls plead County gives out same-sex license not guilty of fraud BY BRANT SAPPINGTON
bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
Wednesday was a plea and revocation day for the court, and arraignment for the three individuals was conducted in judge’s Rinehart chambers before proceeding with other cases in open court. Rinehart and the Nulls were arrested June 22 after a grand jury returned the indictments stemming from an investigation by the state auditor’s office of the sheriff’s department’s purchase of six cars from the Nulls’ business, Cars for Less, during the past three years. The auditor’s office said fraudulent quotes representing other vendors were created by the Nulls and submitted by the sheriff to the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors as competitive quotes. The auditor’s office said the six vehicles were salvaged vehicles at the time of purchase and were rebuilt with potentially stolen parts prior to being sold to the county. The auditor issued an unrelated civil demand to the sheriff for $181,161.93 for misap-

Alcorn County Sheriff Charles Rinehart, accused by the state auditor of a bidrigging scheme for vehicles, was arraigned along with two alleged co-conspirators in Alcorn County Circuit Court Wednesday morning. Rinehart, 73, of 10 Rollingwood Circle, Corinth, waived a formal reading of the indictment and entered a plea of “not guilty” on five counts of fraudulently obtaining public funds and five counts of false representation to defraud government. Rinehart, with his attorney, Tony Farese, appeared before Judge Thomas Gardner in the judge’s chambers. He is free on a $25,000 bond. Teddy Cleveland Null, 50, of 2110 Norman Road, Corinth, and Pamela Denise Null, 46, of the same address, each entered a plea of “not guilty” on five counts of conspiracy to defraud the state and five counts of defrauding the state by fraudulent representations. The Nulls are represented by attorney John Ferrell. They are also free on $25,000 bond. The three were directed to meet with their attorneys on Oct. 14 ahead of the November court term.

In other cases before the court Wednesday morning: ■ Edith Spence pleaded guilty to burglary of a building and was given a suspended seven-year sentence on three separate counts and a $1,000 fine on each count. She must pay restitution with co-defendants to three individuals totaling $2,240. The plea stems from a breakin at Northside Storage on Sept. 1, 2014. ■ Austin Wade Martin, 43, of Ramer, Tenn., pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine and was given a suspended three-year sentence with two years of unsupervised probation and a $1,000 fine. He was arrested on Sept. 29, 2014, following a traffic stop of a vehicle in which he was a passenger in Alcorn County. ■ Daniel Bearden pleaded guilty to possession of oxycodone and was given a suspended eight-year sentence with five years of probation and a $1,000 fine. His plea follows an arrest on Dec. 21, 2014.
Prentiss County has issued its first marriage license to a samesex couple. Circuit Clerk Mike Kelley said his office issued a license to a female couple Monday afternoon after receiving a letter from the Mississippi Attorney General’s office informing circuit clerks they could begin issuing licenses. Alcorn County has yet to issue a license to a same-sex cou-
ple, according to Alcorn County Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell on Wednesday. Prentiss County’s Kelley said he is required to obey all laws including the law established by the Supreme Court’s ruling last Friday regarding same-sex marriage. “The law and the Supreme Court have shut down Mississippi’s law and we’re obligated to obey the law.

Officials respond to Langston appeal BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com
Federal prosecutors have responded to a motion by former Booneville attorney Joey Langston seeking to have his 2008 conviction on a federal conspiracy charge thrown out. Langston pleaded guilty in 2008, along with several others, to allegedly attempting to influence Circuit Court Judge Robert “Bobby” Delaughter to rule favorably in a case filed
by Richard “Dickie” Scruggs. Langston was sentenced to three years in federal prison, three years supervised release and a $250,000 fine. He completed all terms of his sentence and was fully released from custody and supervision on April 17, 2014. On April 15 of this year he filed a motion in federal court arguing the conviction was impropPlease see LANGSTON | 2

Motorists will see more troopers on the highways as the state beefs up its law enforcement presence for the holiday weekend. An additional 48 troopers will be on patrol during the holiday enforcement period from 6 p.m. Friday to midnight Sunday. MHP hopes this will help the state fare better than last year’s Fourth of July period, when the state recorded seven fatalities on its highways. “With the new texting and driving law that is now in place, we are encouraging drivers to change driving habits that could put themselves or other motorists at risk,” said Lt. Johnny Poulos, MHP. “Our main concern is in what manner the vehicle is being operated. Therefore, careless and reckless driving laws will be enforced by MHP. Safety checkpoints will be established to prevent impaired driving, promote seatbelt usage, and to ensure safe operation of motor vehicles by licensed drivers.” The new law, which took effect Wednesday, encompasses not just texting but also e-mails Please see TRAVEL | 2

Special quilt raises money for Legion BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Carlean Parker challenged quilter Mary Dell Dicks. The longtime quilter produced. Dicks churned out a patriotic quilt design which will be used to help the American Legion Post 6 Ladies Auxiliary raise money. “I love this one more,” said Dicks as she looked over the Queen-size product. “It’s bigger than the one I did last year and it’s made from actual flags.” Parker came up with the idea of using stars of flags set
for disposal. “The stars and red and white strips of those flags are in the quilt,” said Parker. “It’s special because of that.” “She made a good suggestion,” added Dicks. The quilt is made of 36 stars along with 12 Little Farmer Boys and 12 Sun Bonnet Sue dolls. Chances for the quilt are $2 or three for $5. Proceeds collected from the quilt will be used to fund the many programs sponsored by the American Legion such as Boys State, oratorical contest for high school students and
other numerous programs of the organization. Chances on the quilt will be be sold starting Saturday at the Jacinto Festival. They can be bought at the American Legion booth. The quilt will be awarded on Veterans Day at the legion hall. Last year, the auxiliary made $600 from chances on the quilt. The winner does not have to be present, according to Parker. (For more information about purchasing a chance on the quilt contact Parker at 662-462-3443.)

er because a later federal court ruling stated the statute he was charged under does not apply to his case. He argued the opinion of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in “U.S. vs. Whitfield” states the code section in question does not apply to bribes offered to state court judges in connection with their decisions. In their response filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Oxford, federal prosecutors argue the decision in Whitfield does not apply in Langston’s case and in fact the original prosecution was valid. They further argue that even if his argument were valid he has
waited too long to seek relief. They claim the issue is not one of jurisdiction as he claims and which would remove the time element. Instead the government argues Langston deliberately waited until the statute of limitations on other potential charges that could be filed in his case had run out before seeking the overturn of his conviction, thereby preventing him from potentially being prosecuted on any other charge should the original conviction be overturned. U.S. District Judge Michael P. Mills will now consider the arguments from both sides and determine the next step in the case.

Vickburg seeks former hospital The Associated Press
VICKSBURG — Vicksburg officials are looking for a way to buy the old Kuhn Hospital building to demolish it and turn the property over to a developer to turn the site into a residential area. “Right now, it looks as if the best option would be to take it down, get some kind of CDBG or any other grant and turn into a housing complex with individual houses,” Alderman Michael Mayfield said. Mayfield is taking the lead in the city’s attempts to resolve the problems with Kuhn, which has been abandoned since 1989, when the State of Mississippi closed it as
a charity hospital. Two other charity hospitals in Laurel and Meridian also were closed. Mayfield’s comments followed a brief discussion on the property at a work session of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen Monday in the wake of the abduction and death of Sharen Wilson, whose body was found on the property Sunday night. “The hospital has been, in my opinion, an eyesore to the community even before I took public office, which has been 20 years, now. The residents in that community have wanted it taken down,” Mayfield said. The city has been trying for several years to get the
property demolished, but has encountered a series of problems in the process. “Every time we get right at the door of either acquiring it or taking it down, another road block shows up,” Mayfield said. One problem has been determining exactly who has title to the property. According to Warren County tax rolls, the owner is listed as the Esther Stewart Buford Foundation in Yazoo City, but the 12.8-acre tract has been sold multiple times at tax sales, clouding who has the proper title to the land. Community Development Director Victor Grey-Lewis said assistant city attorney Bobby Robinson is researching county land records to de-
termine who has the title. He said the owner of the property has announced they are abandoning the property for tax reasons. The second issue is asbestos, which has been discovered in the building. Having an assessment to determine the amount of asbestos and having it removed is expensive, City Attorney Nancy Thomas told the board. Also, she said, a portion of the main building’s roof has collapsed. The city applied for an Environmental Protection Agency Brownfields Grant to cover the cost of assessing the building for asbestos, but the application was denied. No one in Mississippi received an assessment grant this year, Grey-Lewis said.

low the law and that’s what we have to do,” he said. Friday’s Supreme Court ruling in the case of Obergefell vs Hodges legalized same sex marriage throughout the country. Initially Attorney General Jim Hood told circuit clerks, who are responsible for issuing marriage licenses in the state, that the decision was not immediately effective in Mississippi due to a hold placed by a U.S. District
Judge in a separate case challenging the state’s constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. However, on Monday Hood issued a letter to clerks saying his guidance on Friday may have been misinterpreted as prohibiting clerks from issuing the licenses. In Monday’s letter he notes if a clerk refuses to issue a marriage license to a samesex couple the clerk could face legal action for the denial due to the supreme court’s decision.
Thursday, July 2, 2015
Today in History Today is Thursday, July 2, the 183rd day of 2015. There are 182 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution saying that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States.”
On this date: In 1881, President James A. Garfield was shot by Charles J. Guiteau at the Washington railroad station; Garfield died the following September. (Guiteau was hanged in June 1882.) In 1915, a time bomb planted in a reception room of the U.S. Senate exploded shortly before midnight, causing considerable damage but hurting no one. Former Mexican President Porfirio Diaz died in exile in Paris. In 1926, the United States Army Air Corps was created. In 1937, aviator Amelia Earhart and navigator Fred Noonan disappeared over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to make the first roundthe-world flight along the equator. In 1943, Bing Crosby and the Ken Darby Singers recorded “Sunday, Monday or Always” for Decca Records. In 1955, “The Lawrence Welk Show” premiered on ABC-TV under its original title, “The Dodge Dancing Party.” In 1961, author Ernest Hemingway shot himself to death at his home in Ketchum, Idaho. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law a sweeping civil rights bill passed by Congress. In 1979, the Susan B. Anthony dollar coin was released to the public. In 1982, Larry Walters of San Pedro, California, used a lawn chair equipped with 45 heliumfilled weather balloons to rise to an altitude of 16,000 feet; he landed eight miles away in Long Beach. In 1990, more than 1,400 Muslim pilgrims were killed in a stampede inside a pedestrian tunnel near Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Ten years ago: Shasta Groene, an 8-year-old girl kidnapped six weeks earlier, was rescued at a restaurant in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho; the man with her, Joseph Edward Duncan III, was arrested and accused of kidnapping Shasta as well as killing members of her family. (Duncan later received three death sentences and multiple life sentences.)

Region/State Across the Region Ripley man killed in 1-vehicle wreck TUPELO — A Tippah County man was killed in a weekend wreck in Tupelo. Guillermo Martin, 21, of Ripley, was killed when his vehicle left the road and rolled over around 10 p.m. Saturday on Briar Ridge Road in Lee County. Martin was the only occupant of the vehicle. He was transported to North Mississippi Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead. Police said Martin was not carrying any identification. Officials did not know who Martin was until his wife called looking for her missing husband.
Pickwick hosting fireworks display PICKWICK, Tenn. — The huge Fourth of July fireworks show above Pickwick Lake returns this year just after dark on Saturday at Pickwick Landing State Park. Best viewing areas are by boat on the lake above the dam, or on land inside the park at the inn or at “The Circle.” Another good loca-
tion is on the north side of the dam under the bridge on the levee.
Ramer planning holiday parade RAMER, Tenn. — Sponsored by the Ramer Ruritans and the City of Ramer, the annual Fourth of July Parade will be held for the 30th straight year. The parade will kick off at 9 a.m. with the line-up in downtown Ramer, followed by the procession up Hwy 57 to the Ramer City Park at 10 a.m. Fun for all ages, the patriotic event will feature floats, equestrians, tractors, trucks, classic and antique cars, fourwheelers, floats, bands, wagons, walkers, scout troops and more. There is no entry fee for the parade and no prizes will be given. Tommy Elam and the Ramer Ruritans will be selling barbecue and Boston butts at the city park. The money raised will help the Ruritans to fund their community projects. (For more information and directions, call 731645-7564 or 731-6455709.)
Head of rights group says emblems treason BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — The national president of a civil-rights group says Confederate symbols represent “treason” and should be removed from public objects, including the Mississippi state flag. Charles Steele Jr., head of the Atlantabased Southern Christian Leadership Conference, said Wednesday at the Mississippi Capitol that Confederate names should disappear from streets and structures. Debate about the prominence of Old South symbols reignited after the June 17 massacre of nine black worshippers at a church in Charleston, South Carolina. “The Confederacy and what it stands for is treason,” Steele said. He said he believes if African-Americans had ever organized to overthrow the U.S. government, they would’ve been killed or deported, and the South needs to stop commemorating the Confederacy. Standing with about three dozen Mississippi residents, including several black elected officials, Steele said Mississippi should remove the Confederate battle emblem from its flag.

Jim Evans agreed. “That flag is known around the world as man’s inhumanity to man,” said Evans, a Democrat from Jackson. Since the Charleston killings, some Mississippi leaders have called for changing the flag the state adopted in 1894, with the Confederate X in the upper left corner. Mississippi House Speaker, Philip Gunn, a Republican, cites his Christian faith in saying the Confederate emblem is offensive and the state needs a flag that would unify people. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant says Mississippi voters should decide the flag’s fate. During a statewide election in 2001, people voted nearly 2-to-1 to keep the Confederate design. Steele, a former Alabama state senator, specified two structures he thinks should be renamed in his home state: Robert E. Lee High School in Montgomery, which was named decades ago for the top Confederate general and now has a mostly black enrollment; and the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, named for a Confederate general who became a Ku Klux Klan leader. Police attacked civil-rights marchers on the bridge in 1965.

BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — A judicial watchdog agency wants to remove a south Mississippi chancery judge in a case that led another judge to plead guilty to obstruction of justice charges. The Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance recommended on Tuesday that the Supreme Court remove Chancery Judge David Shoemake from office, saying Shoemake lied in testimony before the commission. “Respondent has irreparably damaged his own credibility by making false and misleading statements while under oath, and should not have the opportunity to pass judgment on others’ credibility,” the commission said in a statement. The commission wrote that it’s also calling for Shoemake to pay a $2,500 fine and nearly $5,900 for investigation costs. Shoemake, who wants the case dismissed, has denied lying. His lawyer has said in a court filing that the commission broke its own rules by waiting longer than 90 days to notify him of a complaint. “I am disappointed
that this commission has chosen to play politics with such an important matter,” Shoemake said. Shoemake is one of two judges in a chancery district that includes Covington, Jefferson Davis, Lawrence, Simpson and Smith counties. Until May 2014, the other judge in that district was Joe Dale Walker. After resigning, Walker pleaded guilty in October to instructing a federal grand jury witness to destroy documents and then lying to FBI agents. Prosecutors said that Walker, in 2011, directed the attorney he had appointed for a conservatorship to solicit bids from local contractors for the construction of a home for a ward in a case Walker was overseeing. Five bids for construction of the home were obtained, including a bid from Walker’s nephew, Chad Teater, doing busi-
ness as C.T. Construction. Prosecutors say Walker reviewed the bids, finding that Teater’s bid was much lower than the others. Walker instructed Teater to raise his bid and Teater subsequently submitted another that was $23,500 higher, but still lower than the other bids. Due to his nephew’s involvement, Walker transferred the case to Shoemake to accept and approving bids for the construction of the home. The commission wrote that there was no evidence that Shoemake had tried to award funds that were unjustified or that he had benefited financially. However, the commission found the judge “repeatedly failed to exercise diligence and oversight to protect the assets and best interest of the ward,” particularly criticizing his decision to give Teater another $23,000 to cover stolen materials.

ing on the pillars, the stairwells and the elevator shaft. Once that is done, things will appear to move a lot faster,” Aguirre told the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal. The city broke ground on the $10 million, 34,000-square-foot police headquarters in early April. The first 10 weeks of the project were dedicated to giving the twostory building a stable foundation. “They should start pouring the concrete for the first floor in two or three weeks,” said Aguirre. “The construction schedule says the slab on grade will be poured and finished by July 15.” Plans for a new facility date to two city administrations ago, when city leaders issued bonds for a new police headquarters but never took action. Instead, city leaders waited years until a federal investigation related to a contraband cigarette operation ended. Tupelo police assistance with the FBI and other entities resulted in the city acquiring $1.5 million and four acres of land at the future site of the headquarters.

Supreme Court disasters Many people are looking at the recent Supreme Court decisions about ObamaCare and same-sex marriage in terms of whether they think these are good or bad policies. That is certainly a legitimate conThomas cern, for both those who favor Sowell those policies and those who oppose them. Columnist But there is a deeper and more long-lasting impact of these decisions that raise the question whether we are still living in America, where “we the people” are supposed to decide what kind of society we want, not have our betters impose their notions on us. The Constitution of the United States says that the federal government has only those powers specifically granted to it by the Constitution – and that all other powers belong either to the states or to the people. That is the foundation of our freedom, and that is what is being dismantled by both this year’s Obamacare decision and last year’s ObamaCare decision, as well as by the Supreme Court’s decision imposing a redefinition of marriage. Last year’s Supreme Court decision declaring ObamaCare constitutional says that the federal government can order individual citizens to buy the kind of insurance the government wants them to buy, regardless of what the citizens themselves prefer. This year’s ObamaCare decision likewise ignored the actual words of the law, and decided that the decisions of 34 states not to participate in ObamaCare Exchanges, even to get federal subsidies, would not prevent those federal subsidies to be paid anyway, to Exchanges up by the federal government itself. When any branch of government can exercise powers not authorized by either statutes or the Constitution, “we the people” are no longer free citizens but subjects, and our “public servants” are really our public masters. And America is no longer America. The freedom for which whole generations of Americans have fought and died is gradually but increasingly being taken away from us with smooth and slippery words. This decision makes next year’s choice of the next President of the United States more crucial than ever, because with that office goes the power to nominate justices of the Supreme Court. Democrats have consistently nominated people who shared their social vision and imposed their policy preferences, too often in disregard of the Constitution. Republicans have complained about it but, when the power of judicial appointment was in the hands of Republican presidents, they have too often appointed justices who participated in the dismantling of the Constitution – and usually for the kinds of social policies preferred by Democrats. Chief Justices appointed by Republican presidents have made landmark decisions for which there was neither Constitutional authority nor either evidence or logic. The first was Earl Warren. When Chief Justice Warren said that “separate educational facilities are inherently unequal,” he was within walking distance of an all-black public high school that sent a higher percentage of its graduates on to college than any white public high school in Washington. Nevertheless, Chief Justice Warren’s unsubstantiated assumption led to years of school busing across the country that was as racially divisive as it was educationally futile. And now Chief Justice John Roberts, appointed by George W. Bush, gives the federal government the power to order us to buy whatever insurance they want us to buy. With that entering wedge, is there anything they cannot force us to do, regardless of the Constitution? Can the Republicans – or the country – afford to put another mushy moderate in the White House, who can appoint more mushy moderates to the Supreme Court?

Prayer for today My Father, save me from the habit of borrowing. So often I borrow trouble and cannot use it, when the peace that I possess is all that I need. Help me, that I may not miss the glory of to-day, by anticipating the uncertainty of to-morrow; but may I discern my place and have delight in every day. Amen.

Same-sex marriage is just the beginning “Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.” What Winston Churchill said in 1942 following a British military victory in North Africa might also be said about Friday’s narrow 5-4 decision by the Supreme Court legalizing marriage between people of the same sex. That the majority threw a bone to religious people, their churches and institutions, saying they could continue to preach and teach that homosexual marriage is wrong, will almost certainly be challenged by gay activists and secularists whose goal is to drive religious people, and especially Christians, out of the public square. What might be a preview of things to come occurred last week when the Fairfax County (Va.) School Board voted 10-2 to approve a “gender identity” curriculum for children starting in seventh grade. News reports said the crowd that showed up for the vote overwhelmingly opposed the decision, but majorities no longer matter. Minorities rule, except on the Supreme Court. Given their political clout and antipathy to Christian doctrines, some gay activ-
ists are likely to go after the tax-exempt status of Christian colleges that prohibit coCal habitation of Thomas unmarried students, or Columnist openly homosexual ones, as well as churches that refuse to marry them. As with legal challenges to the owners of bakeries that have been in the news for refusing to bake a cake for same-sex weddings, activists who demand total conformity to their agenda will seek to put out of business and silence anyone who believes differently. This is diversity? No, this is enforced orthodoxy of a different kind and thus in violation of the Constitution and the special protection the Founders gave to people of faith. It was Thomas Jefferson, a deist who edited his own version of the Bible, who said, “No provision in our Constitution ought to be dearer to man than that which protects the rights of conscience against the enterprises of the civil authority.” In the Supreme Court’s decision reversing history, tradition and, yes, the bib-
lical authority it tacitly acknowledges in the friezes on its wall honoring Moses and other law-givers, five unelected judges have imposed on more than 300 million Americans what many still believe to be an “abomination.” That may be changing, but the political process, not the court, should decide. In his strongly worded minority opinion on samesex marriage, Chief Justice John Roberts said, “The court is not a legislature.” Nonetheless, the day before, Roberts acted as a legislator in again upholding the Affordable Care Act and its provision for providing federal subsidies to people in states that did not set up insurance exchanges, in violation of the language of that law. Roberts took upon himself the right to interpret what Congress intended, rather than let the law speak for itself. Modern Republican presidents, beginning with Dwight Eisenhower, have had a checkered record when it comes to their Supreme Court appointments. Ike called his nomination of Earl Warren, who quickly tacked left, “the biggest damned fool mistake I ever made.” There have been several other justices
nominated by Republican presidents who have turned out to be liberal wolves in conservative clothing. Their names comprise a judicial hall of shame: Blackmun, Burger, Stevens, O’Connor, Kennedy, Souter and now, at least based on his Obamacare position, Roberts. This never seems to work in reverse, with liberals becoming conservative once on the bench. I asked Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush about this mixed GOP track record during his recent visit to Washington, where he spoke to a conservative gathering. Bush said that if elected president he would conduct extensive interviews with potential nominees to the court to make sure they have a conservative constitutional view of the law. He allowed that even then there were no “guarantees” a justice would remain conservative. If the zeitgeist and politics are more persuasive to some justices than the Constitution and the intent of the Founders, then justices should be held accountable by the political system and their terms limited.

The next gay marriage battle Everyone knows where the debate over gay marriage is going next. Now that the Supreme Court has imposed its edict on the land, the question is whether religious institutions and people of faith will still be permitted to act on moral beliefs that the court has portrayed as bigoted and deeply wounding. In his long prose-poem about love masquerading as a judicial opinion, Justice Anthony Kennedy made a bow to these concerns. He cited the First Amendment for the proposition that religions and those that adhere to them “may continue to advocate with utmost sincere conviction that, by divine precepts, same-sex marriage should not be condoned.” Gee, thanks, Mr. Justice. This assurance is about as convincing as the rest of Kennedy’s airy majority opinion with little or no connection to the Constitution or law – which is to say, people of faith ought to brace for the worst. Kennedy’s statement was carefully hedged to include only advocacy and teaching, a lawyerly wording that

the other lawyers on the court were quick to pick up on. The First AmendRich ment, Chief Lowry Justice John Roberts National pointed out Review in his dissent, actually protects the freedom to exercise religion. That means people of faith acting on their beliefs, not merely advocating them. It’s easy to see the coming clash of moralities. What Kennedy refers to as the “dignitary wounds” of the traditional definition of marriage are also inflicted by the private institutions and people who uphold that definition. In oral arguments, Justice Samuel Alito asked Solicitor General Donald Verrilli whether, on the model of Bob Jones University a few decades ago when it banned interracial dating and marriage, a college that opposed same-sex marriage could be denied tax-exempt status. “It’s certainly going to be an issue,” Verrilli admitted. “I
don’t deny that.” At this juncture, most supporters of same-sex marriage do deny it, although they have a history of making whatever assurance seems necessary, before discarding it in due course. It used to be that prominent supporters of gay marriage pooh-poohed the idea of a judicial imposition of their view on the country. In the Supreme Court’s prior progay-marriage decision, just two years ago, it said that domestic relations were exclusively a matter for the states – before turning around and throwing out state marriage laws not to its liking. If supporters of same-sex marriage truly have no interest in punishing the exercise of religion they find objectionable, they can sign off on legislation to prevent it. Utah Sen. Mike Lee, a Republican, has a bill called the First Amendment Defense Act – yes, it’s come to that – protecting organizations from government retaliation over their opposition to gay marriage. There is unlikely to be a rush on the left to endorse it, when the American Civil Liberties Union is heading in

the opposite direction. It has just withdrawn its support for the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, on grounds that it can be used to protect organizations refusing to get on board with gay marriage. These are only tea leaves. The move against religious groups will surely start small, with some isolated, unsympathetic Christian institution, and then grow until what once had been called unimaginable becomes mandatory. The push for gay marriage is motivated by a moralistic zeal that sees only one point of view as legitimate. If its supporters weren’t patient enough to see their cause through the inevitable fits and starts of the democratic process, they aren’t going to let procedural niceties stand in the way of an effort to bulldoze their way to a more thoroughgoing conformity on the issue. The gay-marriage debate isn’t over; it has merely entered a new phase. (Daily Corinthian columnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.)

New warden, policy after prison escape ALBANY, N.Y. — A new superintendent has been named to run the maximum-security prison in New York where two killers escaped. He’ll oversee a range of new security measures that close gaps exploited by the inmates during their breakout. The state corrections department says Wednesday that 30-year veteran Michael Kirkpatrick is now superintendent of the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora. The previous superintendent and 11 other staff were put on paid leave Tuesday after an internal review of how David Sweat and Richard Matt escaped June 6. The department says searches of inmates’ cells will be stepped up, staffing will be changed to ensure bed checks are more effective and security gates will be installed in the facility’s tunnels. Â
5 years later, man robs same bank ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — A Philadelphia man robbed a New Jersey bank four months after he was released from prison for robbing the same place five years earlier, prosecutors said. Authorities said 54-year-old Keith Ney entered the Cape Bank in Atlantic City on April 23 and gave a teller a note that said he had a gun. Prosecutors said he stole an undisclosed amount of cash. As Ney was fleeing on foot, a bank employee approached a police officer on traffic detail and said the bank had been robbed, authorities said. Ney was immediately spotted and taken into custody. Ney had been released from prison Dec. 9 and was still on supervised release. He was in custody Wednesday and wasn’t immediately available to comment. It wasn’t clear if he had an attorney who could speak for him. Ney is due in court July 14, and he faces up to 20 years in prison if he’s convicted on the
bank robbery charge. He also could face two additional years in prison for violating the terms of his supervised release. Â
Two share pageant title after miscount WINSLOW, Maine — One winner of a teenage Miss 4th of July pageant is upset. The other agreed to share the title but isn’t talking. And the pageant organizer is defending herself from accusations she rigged the results. Molly Lybrook, 17, of Fairfield, said she won the Winslow Miss 4th of July Pageant on Saturday. But organizers discovered votes had been miscounted and declared Caitlin Grenier, 14, of Winslow, the winner. As a compromise, organizers said both teenagers would be crowned winners. The Morning Sentinel reported that Lybrook believes organizer Leah Frost influenced the results. She said Grenier and Frost’s sister are friends. “This is somebody else’s mistake,â€? Lybrook said. “I won fair and square, and if it truly was a mistake, then I’m sorry, but that’s something the person who made the mistake has to pay for, not me — the winner.â€? Â
Store owner takes down anti-gay sign RUTLEDGE, Tenn. — An East Tennessee hardware store owner who put up a “No Gays Allowed� sign in response to the Supreme Court decision allowing same-sex marriage says he decided to take a “bold� stand for his beliefs. Jeff Amyx tells local media outlets that he put the sign up at Amyx Hardwar & Roofing Supplies in Grainger County on Monday because he disagreed with the court’s decision last week. He said gay and lesbian relationships are against his religion. On Tuesday, however, media reports say he took down that sign and replaced it with one reading “We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who would violate our rights of

Jackson police get help on hate crimes
Chicago to reveal school district cuts
JACKSON — The city of Jackson will provide training to help law enforcement officers accurately report and document hate crimes. Multiple media outlets report the city council approved the ordinance Tuesday. Councilman De’Keither Stamps says he wanted to get in front of hate crimes and the acts of violence need to be documented more thoroughly. According to FBI statistics, there were 5,928 hate crimes reported in 2013, including four in Mississippi. The city ordinance requires police officers to complete training on the nature of hate crimes, identifying victims and perpetrators of hate crimes and the procedures for recording hate crime statistics. Â
CHICAGO — Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is expected to unveil a comprehensive plan explaining how the nation’s third-largest school district will move forward after paying a $634 million pension bill this week that district officials said it couldn’t afford. City officials say the payment was made through borrowing and budget cuts that could hurt the classroom, including “impactingâ€? 1,400 jobs. Interim Chicago Public Schools CEO Jesse Ruiz says CPS must make $200 million in cuts. He blames state lawmakers for causing further debt. Tuesday was the deadline to make the mandated payment. Emanuel and district officials asked legislators for a 40-day delay they said would provide breathing room to find a longer-term solution. But the Illinois House voted down that plan last week and there wasn’t enough support for another vote Tuesday. Â
No bond in murder of Vicksburg woman VICKSBURG — A judge has denied bond to a Vicksburg man accused in the death of a 69-year-old woman whose body was found at an abandoned hospital Sunday night. The Vicksburg Post reports Warren County Judge Johnny Price denied bail for 33-year-old Rafael McCloud during an initial court appearance Tuesday. McCloud is charged with capital murder and seven other counts related to the death of Sharen Wilson. Authorities say Wilson had been missing since late Saturday. Authorities say her body was found Sunday night by ghost hunters at the old Kuhn Memorial State Hospital. Â
Polygamous trio applies for license HELENA, Mont. — A Montana man has applied for a marriage license so he can legally wed his second wife. Nathan Collier of Billings said Wednesday that last week’s U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage inspired him to try to force the acceptance of polygamous marriages. He says he’ll sue the state if his application is rejected. Collier says Yellowstone County Courthouse officials initially denied the application Tuesday. When he told officials he planned to sue, they said they would consult with the county attorney before giving him a final answer. Collier married his first wife, Victoria, in 2000. He and his second wife, Christine, had a religious wedding ceremony in 2007 but didn’t sign a marriage license.
Piland joined the USM faculty in 2004. His first assignment was to serve as clinical coordinator for the Athletic Training Program. Piland has also served in administrative roles as assistant director for faculty development and research promotion and assistant director for undergraduate studies. Â
Choctaw chief runoff sees close contest PHILADELPHIA — The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians was to count absentee ballots Wednesday to decide the runoff election for chief. Multiple media outlets report the unofficial results from Tuesday’s runoff showed incumbent Tribal Chief Phyliss J. Anderson with a 54-vote lead over former chief Beasley Denson. Tribal officials say 370 absentee ballots remain to be counted. Anderson unseated Denson, the incumbent chief, in 2011 with 56 percent of the vote. She became the first woman to lead the 10,000-member Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, which is headquartered in Neshoba County. Â
Man pleads guilty to drug conspiracy GULFPORT — A Gulfport man will be sentenced in Sept. 24 after admitting to conspiring to possess cocaine with the intent to distribute it in Harrison County. The Sun Herald reports Omar Dancer entered a guilty plea this past week in federal court in Gulfport and agreed to forfeit $30,000 in illegal cocaine proceeds. Prosecutors say the
42-year-old Dancer was party to a scheme to distribute the cocaine in Harrison County over a year’s time starting in February 2014. Â
Administrator joins development agency JACKSON — Meridian chief administrative officer Mike McGrevey will join the Mississippi Development Authority next week as deputy director. The announcement was made in a news release Tuesday by MDA executive director Glenn McCullough. McGrevey will start work at the MDA on Monday. His last day in Meridian is Thursday. McGrevey has worked for Meridian Mayor Percy Bland since February 2014 and is responsible for managing the day-today operations of the city and its 475 employees. Bland says he will name a replacement soon. Â
Walkiah Bluff park renovation begins PICAYUNE — The Pearl River County Board of Supervisors is providing $200,000 for renovation of Walkiah Bluff Water Park in Picayune.

Wildfires plague warm, dry region The Associated Press
New flames ignited in drought-stricken Washington state, not far from where a destructive wildfire reduced homes to rubble. Crews also are battling blazes in California and Nevada. Here’s a look at hotspots around the West:
Washington Just days after a wildfire tore through homes in central Washington, a new blaze in the hot, dry region has burned some buildings and forced about two dozen residents to flee. The fire has charred more than 3 square miles of dry sagebrush and grass near the city of Quincy and destroyed five abandoned buildings or outbuildings, the Grant County sheriff’s office said early Wednesday. No homes have been lost, but several are threatened, according to the fire marshal’s office. Winds whipped the flames through farmland, vineyards and some steep terrain starting late Tuesday. It’s not clear what ignited it, but no injuries have been reported. State firefighting resources helped partially contain the blaze northeast of Quincy, which is roughly 30 miles southeast of Wenatchee. A fire in that city about 150 miles west of Seattle destroyed more than two dozen houses and several businesses and forced evacuations this week. Investigators have ruled out natural causes, such as lightning, but they’re still looking into whether the fire was set on purpose or by accident, authorities said at Wednesday news briefing. Another wildfire in central Washington burned nearly 5 square miles of sagebrush and grass south of the small town of Mansfield, about 40 miles northeast of Wenatchee. That fire was halfway contained by Tuesday night and
no longer threatened homes.
California Firefighters made progress against wildfires burning throughout California, but weather was becoming a potential problem as a heat wave built in some regions and the threat of thunderstorms, gusty winds and lightning persisted elsewhere. A 320-acre blaze that erupted outside the Santa Barbara County city of Lompoc on Monday and forced 1,200 people to flee was threequarters contained and evacuations were lifted, fire Capt. Dave Zaniboni said. The fire broke out behind the Spanish colonial-era La Purisima Mission, but the structures in what is now a state historic park escaped damage. The cause of the fire was under investigation. In the inland region east of Los Angeles, a 49-square-mile wildfire in the San Bernardino National Forest was more than halfway contained. Firefighters worked on hotspots, and some crews were sent to wilderness areas for three- or four-day stints to reduce travel time to and from fire lines.
Nevada Firefighters declared full containment of a lightning-sparked wildfire covering almost 8 square miles of sage and grass in remote northern Nevada. No injuries were reported, and no structures were damaged, Nevada Conservation & Natural Resources spokeswoman JoAnn Kittrell said. The fire was reported Monday on private land north of Interstate 80 about halfway between Battle Mountain and Elko. It spared an area of fragile habitat for the imperiled sage grouse, Kittrell said.
SALT AND LIGHT Those of us who have grown up in the South especially are familiar with the delicious taste of country ham. When my wife and I go out to eat, if there is good country ham available, that is her choice. Perhaps you are old enough to remember slaughtering hogs at home, and the work involved in salting meat down, and preparing the hams, bacon, and other select cuts for curing. There were two reasons for going through that process, weren’t there? One was to preserve the meat; to keep it from spoiling. The second reason, which was really a bonus, is the wonderful flavor it brings to the meat. In our modern homes, virtually every conceivable convenience is available; for a price of course. One of the most used is electric lights. They are found in every room in our house; in the ceiling, in lamps on the floor, lamps on the tables, and under kitchen cabinets. All we have to do to chase away the darkness in any and every corner of our house is just flip a switch or two. Jesus used salt and light to illustrate the permeating influence that is found in the lives of his disciples. “You are the salt of the earth:� “you are the light of the world.�(Matthew 5:13, 14) Salt has a saving quality when applied to meats, and certain other things as well. Salt also has a purifying, or cleansing effect, so long as the salt is still�salty� or good. If not, it is “good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.� (Matthew 5:13) Light dispels darkness. “Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.� (Matthew 5:15) Light keeps us from stumbling, yet some choose to live in darkness because their deeds are evil. (John 3:19) “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.�(Matthew 5:16) Is your salt still good, having that saving, cleansing influence in the lives of those about you. Do your friends and neighbors see Christ in your life, or have you been overcome by Satan and the world? Is your light burning brightly, showing the way to Jesus, or has it been snuffed out by sin in your life? We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Fresh off a Supreme Court victory, President Barack Obama said Wednesday that he’s “feeling pretty good� about the state of his health care law and pleaded for bipartisan cooperation on ways to make it work even better. Obama said he wants to refocus the debate on improving health care quality, expanding access and eliminating waste now that the high court has upheld a key element of the Affordable Care Act. “I’m feeling pretty good about how health care is going,� Obama said before he removed his suit jacket and answered questions about health care from Tennesseans seated at tables in an elementary school cafeteria. Obama’s choice to visit Tennessee was deliberate. The state’s Republican governor, Bill Haslam, tried to expand Medicaid under the health care law to cover more than 200,000 state residents — only to be stymied by state legislators of his own party. Obama argued to his audience — and during a Twitter question-and-answer session immediately
after the event — that health care coverage rates could be vastly improved if more governors and lawmakers would accept the federal government’s offer of billions of dollars of federal money to pay to expand Medicaid to cover millions more low-income Americans in their states. About 20 states, most of them led by Republican governors and including some heavily populated places like Florida and Texas, have refused to expand Medicaid. Obama has accused them of losing sight of what’s good for their constituents. “I think because of politics not all states have taken advantage of the options that are out there,� he said. “Our hope is that more of them do.� The Supreme Court handed Obama a major victory on health care last week when it upheld federal financial aid to millions of low- and middleincome Americans to help pay for insurance premiums regardless of where they live. Obama declared immediately after the ruling that the law is “here to stay.� He cited progress under its provisions but
said more work was needed to “make health care in America even better.� In Nashville, he talked about making sure people know about the law’s benefits, including free preventive care, help for seniors on prescription medication and prohibitions on insurers denying coverage based on a prior illness. While Obama talked up what he says is good about the law, the law’s Republican opponents highlighted what they say is bad about it. “The latest Supreme Court ruling won’t change Obamacare’s multitude of broken promises, including the one that resulted in millions of Americans losing the coverage they had and wanted to keep,� Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Wednesday. “And the ruling won’t change the skyrocketing costs in premiums, deductibles, and co-pays that have hit the middle class so hard over the last few years.� Obama surrounded himself Wednesday with two women who shared their health care stories in letters to him. Accompanying the president aboard the Air Force One flight was
Natoma Canfield, an Ohio cancer survivor who wrote in 2009 about being forced to drop her health insurance after she could no longer afford the monthly premium. After arriving in Tennessee, Obama made room in his limousine for Kelly Bryant, of Nashville, who wrote about finding affordable insurance under the law to treat her breast cancer. He picked her up on the way to the event, even holding an umbrella to shield her from a pounding rain. “I never imagined in my wildest dreams that anyone would read it, let alone him,� Bryant said to introduce the president. “I am living proof of a president who listens and cares about the American people.� Asked about the lack of Medicaid expansion in Tennessee, Obama lamented the politics he said are at play and urged lawmakers to find a “uniquely Tennessee solution.� “It is unfortunate that getting this thing done got so political,� he said. “Washington is kind of a crazy place. But that doesn’t mean every place has got to be crazy.�
Stats: Natural church fires not unusual The Associated Press
GREELEYVILLE, S.C. — The Rev. John Taylor immediately recalled what happened 20 years ago when he learned his church was burning, only days after a mass shooting at a black church in Charleston prompted southern leaders to call for removing Confederate flags. The Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church was burned to the ground by the Ku Klux Klan in 1995, one of many arsons at black churches that prompted President Bill Clinton to create a federal task force that led to hundreds of arrests. “Of course we thought about it. We wouldn’t be human if we didn’t,� he said, standing in the hot sun outside the church’s charred shell on Wednesday. But Taylor also recalled the fierce lightning storm that blew through town about the time the fire began Tuesday night. “I really thought it probably was a lightning strike is what I thought.� Preliminary indications suggest the Mount Zion fire was not the result of arson, according to a federal official who spoke with The Associated Press Wednesday on condition of anonymity, for lack of authority to discuss the
case publicly. More than a half-dozen fires at black churches have burned in the days since a white gunman was charged with murder in the shootings of nine black churchgoers in Charleston. Investigators have determined that several were intentionally set, but have yet to announce any evidence of racial motives. According to the best available national statistics, if these have been the only church fires happening recently, this would be a relatively safe time. An average of 31 houses of worship burned every week from 2007 through 2011, according to a 2013 estimate by the National Fire Protection Association, which analyzed government data and survey results. Among these, arson was relatively rare: Just 16 percent of the estimated blazes at religious structures were intentionally set during the five-year period ending in 2011. That means arsonists set fire to roughly five each week. The figures include a small number of funeral homes and do not distinguish between predominantly white and black congregations. Taylor, who is in his ninth year as the pastor

of Mount Zion, said when he heard of the fire, he immediately recalled the blaze two decades ago, for which two KKK members served long prison sentences. Clinton himself came to dedicate the rebuilt church that burned down Tuesday night. Speculation has run rampant on social media. Could white supremacists be reviving this terror tactic? Was someone looking to make a statement after President Barack Obama called for an honest accounting of America’s racial history during his eulogy in Charleston on Friday? Jesse Parker, the mayor of the community of about 400, is urging patience as investigators determine the cause. “We’ll just let them do their jobs and let them bring us the results of how it got started and we will accept the findings,� Parker said. No one keeps an up-todate tally of every church fire in the United States, making exact comparisons impossible. But 84 percent of these fires happen for reasons other than arson. Kitchen equipment and faulty heating and electrical systems are the most likely causes. It may simply be that people paying more at-
tention to church fires now, given this month’s tumultuous events, suggested NFPA analyst Marty Ahrens. “Perception matters,� Ahrens said. “We don’t know all the causes of all the fires that have gone on this week. But if the church arsons had not happened so soon after the tragedy in Charleston, that horrible incident, would it have gotten the same level of attention?� Some intentional fires set in black churches defy simple racial motives. The Clinton task force found whites represented 63 percent of the people arrested for bombing or burning black churches in the late 1990s, but 37 percent were black. Motives also varied widely: Some were vandals or pyromaniacs. Others tried to cover up burglaries or financial theft, or simply held grudges. Only the brick walls remained at Mount Zion Wednesday morning. The glass was gone from its narrow windows. A large white cross on the brick front wall appeared charred. It’s a total loss, but the congregation will rebuild again, Taylor said. “We will rise again. Our dreams are not lost. They are not dead,� the pastor said.
Races make changes to resolve deer issue The Associated Press
ERIE, Pa. — Deer, not deuces, are wild at Presque Isle Downs and Casino, and the racetrack is making changes to get its horses back in the starting gate. Officials plan to resume racing on Wednesday after canceling some races Sunday and all the races Monday and Tuesday because deer were jumping onto the track and creating a dangerous situation. To help resolve the problem, the track planned to remove nearby bushes and trees in an attempt to keep the animals at bay. Also, officials planned to raise the fence around the track, and to start the program a few hours earlier, at 3:05 p.m. The time change is to avoid racing at dusk when deer become more active. A deer ran in front of horses during Sunday’s fourth race. Four later rac-
es were canceled that day. The track holds races Sunday through Thursday. “We’re taking this very seriously,� said Jeff Favre, casino vice president and general manager. “The last thing we want is a jockey or horse to get hurt due to deer.� Sunday wasn’t the first time deer had interrupted a race, and jockeys said they were becoming concerned. Five deer interrupted a race June 22, prompting officials to cancel the final five races that day. “This is a very troubling situation,� said Heriberto Rivera, East Coast manager for the Jockey’s Guild. The union represents more than 1,300 retired and current U.S. jockeys. “You can’t have animals weighing hundreds of pounds crossing in front of you when you’re going 35 to 40 miles an hour,� Rivera said.

Jurassic World still a box office juggernaut Jurassic World, PG13, ****1/2, Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, Director Colin Trevorrow. Length 124 minutes. A new mark has been set with “Jurassic World” as the number one opening day movie of all time and the number one weekend box-office spot for the third week in a row with $54.2 million in sales. I remember how much I enjoyed the first “Jurassic Park” as I could not stop talking about it to anyone who would listen. This time the Jurassic Park is in Costa Rica, and
of course, it does not take long for the dinosaurs to begin to wreck Terry havoc on Burns the individuals at Movie Critic the Dinosaur Park. The film takes about 30 minutes to begin its regular havoc, and believe me the action begins and does not stop until the ending. Tyrannosaurus’ and other dinosaurs’ wreak havoc for everyone and everything on the island.
On a lighter moment, Jimmy Fallon makes a surprise scene with a little of his comic moments. If the reader is not familiar with Fallon, he is the entertainer on the Tonight Show. There is plenty of dinosaur action throughout the “Jurassic World” movie. The kids and the grownups take one heck of a ride as they move along on the land of “Jurassic World.” The first Jurassic Park opened in 1992 or 1993. The Jurassic World even has birds that can kill humans and animals. In other words, the au-
dience will not have any moments of dullness. Do not forget the Raptors as they remind the audience of dogs closing in on rabbits, raccoons, squirrels, Fox, etc. Of course, the audience has to remember that this park is for the company to make money. It seems it does not matter if the visitors have problems staying alive, the entrepreneurs in the park must make money. After all the big companies enjoy making more and more money as we all know. There is nothing like the American way of making more money over the fact
some people are in danger of being killed or hurt. Enough about Entrepreneur’s trying to make more money on any and all moments that are dangerous or safe. The Big Boss Man gets the money no matter what. Some have no conscious for humans as long as the boss makes money and gets his ability to keep the money rolling into the bank. Isn’t it funny how movies mimic the real world of entrepreneurs as they move forward to make more money no matter the dangers of people being there for fun? We do find some individuals who help living
things, people, and any person, or animal that needs assistance. It is an excellent moment as humans and animals work together to help living people, animals, vegetation, and all living things to survive. Apparently, movie fans are enjoying this movie since it has broken records for box office theaters. Next week I am looking forward to writing about a movie that takes a look at life and how we move thru existence. (Terry Burns is the movie critic for the Daily Corinthian. A four-star rating means excellent.)
Beyond Independence Day, never forget the gift of freedom On Independence Day we celebrate the gift of freedom given to us 239 years ago by the founders of our great nation. Freedom is as precious as life itself. However, its true value is rarely appreciated unless it is either threatened or lost. July Fourth isn’t just a day off. It’s more than barbecues and parties. The Fourth of July is a time to renew your gratitude for your good fortune to be living in the greatest country in the world. In 1776 America became the first country to be founded on the recognition of the sanctity of individual freedom. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is the core of America. The power of American freedom unleashed the human spirit as never before. In less than 200 years, Americans had invented, developed, produced, and accomplished more than societies thousands of years old. Our
gift of freedom has enabled Americans to create the highest Bryan s t a n d a r d Golden of living in history. Dare to Live A l Without Limits though the human spirit yearns for freedom, tyrannical regimes have been the norm throughout history. Since the dawn of mankind, people around the world have lived miserable, subjugated lives repressed by monarchs, fascists, tyrants, and dictators who controlled virtually every aspect of their lives. Our founders understood the tactics used by these oppressors to enslave a population through the suppression of freedom. America’s founders knew tyrants had an attitude that they were above the law and better than others. Our
Nothing surpasses the gift of freedom where each individual has the right to determine their own life. founders foresaw that authoritarian individuals would inevitably come along, intent on stealing power and wealth from the people. Authoritarians’ quest for power and control utilizes a strategy of deception. They publicly claim to seek to protect your liberty, while deceitfully working behind your back to eliminate one freedom after another. In America, no one has the right to take your freedom. The yearning to be free from oppression is our core. We recognize freedom as a fundamental, unalienable right. In America, we are free to succeed or fail. It’s an individual choice, not the dictate of any ruling
class. We are free to take personal responsibility for our lives, rather than expecting others to take care of us. It is this freedom, to be the masters of our destiny, which is a precious gift. We have more rights and freedoms than anywhere else in the world. Our freedoms are innate, not privileges granted by government. Every item in the bill of rights is a precious jewel designed to ensure the immortality of our liberty. America was founded to allow each citizen to control his or her destiny without fear of interference by government or others. Our government was intentionally designed to serve the people rather than vice versa.
Our government was specifically structured to play a minimal role in people’s lives. Every American benefits from the gift of freedom. Success has a positive impact on all. It creates a vibrant, growing society filled with opportunity. People are willing to work hard when they are free to benefit from their efforts and able to retain the fruits of their labor. Nothing surpasses the gift of freedom where each individual has the right to determine their own life. What is the alternative? Is it being told what you can and cannot do? Is it having some person or government deciding what, and how much you are permitted to have? Our Constitution was crafted explicitly to protect freedom and prevent government from infringing on individual liberties. The constitution has numerous checks, bal-
ances, and safeguards designed to prevent the rise of tyranny. But our Constitution is only a document. Maintaining our free society requires constant vigilance and participation. There will always be those seeking to subvert the Constitution in order to seize control. If freedom is allowed to fall, one freedom after another is lost, creating a chain reaction that ultimately consumes all of your liberty. Your freedom was hard to get, but it is easy to lose. Although it takes vigilance to protect it, it takes so much more effort to get it back once it’s gone. Only you can ensure that no one steals your gift of freedom.

That’s down from 423 at the end of last year, according to S&P

Manufacturing bellwether A stronger dollar has increased the cost of U.S.-made goods overseas, hurting U.S. manufacturers. At the same time, cheaper oil prices have slashed demand from energy firms for pipelines and equipment. The trend has contributed to a decline in company orders to U.S. factories much of this year. Economists anticipate that the Commerce Department will report today that factory orders declined again in May.

Brother-in-law’s behavior damages relationships WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD
FORT KNOX
PICKLES
Dear Annie: I am gay. Two years ago, my partner of 34 years told me that my brother-in-law had touched her breasts inappropriately. I didn’t believe her and we had a huge fight over it. She never confronted him or told my sister, and she has continued to socialize with my family. Last weekend, we attended my niece’s graduation, and much to my horror, my brother-in-law rubbed his hand across my butt. Worse, I then had to get into the same car with him. I was shocked and said nothing, even though I was terribly upset. I avoided him the rest of the weekend, but things haven’t been quite right since. A year ago, I moved to another state and spend vacations with my sister and her family, either in her home or mine. Now I’m not sure I should continue. I do not understand why he did this or what to do. Was it an act of power or hate or some kind of midlife crisis? This is my sister’s husband, whom I have respected through the years. I now doubt everything about him, including his fidelity to my sister, his morals and whether he has touched other females in the family. I am close to my sister and don’t want to hurt her.
Annie’s Mailbox We are not young anymore and don’t have a tremendous amount of time left to be near each other. But I am not comfortable with the idea of staying in the same house with him. How do I explain that to my sister without causing more harm? — Confused and Angry Dear Confused: There is another possibility. Sometimes, sudden and peculiar changes in behavior or a loss of inhibition can indicate a medical problem, including a small stroke or early signs of dementia. In all the years you have known him, your brother-in-law has never behaved this way toward you. Please talk to your sister. Say that you’ve noticed some disturbing changes in your brother-in-law’s recent behavior and that you worry he may have some physical or neurological problems. You will have to tell her what you mean, but do so with concern and caring, instead of accusations and con-
demnation. Suggest to her that she get him to a doctor for a complete work-up and evaluation. Dear Annie: This is for “Had Enough, Thanks,” the 68-year-old woman whose husband still wants to have sex, but she isn’t interested. I have the opposite problem. My husband is in his late 60s, and I am 10 years younger. We have only been married for five years, and he has had no interest in sex or any other type of physical intimacy. He even told me that he has no need for this anymore and could easily live the rest of his life without it. This has caused extreme problems, as I still have a strong need and desire for marital intimacy. Though I truly love him, it is almost more than I can bear to face the rest of my life with virtually no human touch. — Married, Living Alone Dear Married: We’re certain a lot of women will tell you that in a few years, you may feel the same way your husband does, but that’s not necessarily true. And in the meantime, you are miserable. Is your husband willing to discuss this with his doctor or a counselor? If not, counseling might help you make some decisions.

Readers defend parents who disapprove of cohabitation D E A R READERS: I printed a letter from a parent, “Against the Tide in New Jersey.” He said his Abigail “ i ndepenVan Buren dent, intelligent, loving” Dear Abby daughters (both in their late 20s) have dated their boyfriends for five years and had recently moved in with them. The man also said he and his wife approve of the young men. One daughter is planning to have an open house and invited her parents. The writer said his daughter is upset because he and his wife refuse to attend because cohabitation is against their beliefs. He said he and his wife “understand her decision,” but their daughter doesn’t appear to respect theirs. He asked, “Are we wrong?” I responded yes, because it’s no longer unusual for couples to cohabit before marriage. I asked how long they plan to continue punishing the daughter and said I don’t think they have anything to gain by doing so. Thousands of angry readers wrote to comment. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: Cohabitation is NOT a substitute for matrimony. I realize it is “not unusual for couples today to live together.” However, you must certainly be aware that many religious people regard doing so as a sin against God. Should the parents compromise their beliefs to attend, simply because their daughter’s relationship is “progressing nicely”? Why do you feel that standing up for their beliefs is “punishing” their daughter and her live-in? I wish you would address this again. -- DIANNE IN LUBBOCK, TEXAS DEAR DIANNE: I try to deal with things as they are, and not as some people think they ought to be. Today many couples have chosen to live together before marriage. Some are trying to avoid the unhappiness they saw in their parents’ marriages. Others realize that you don’t really know someone until you have lived with him or her. Divorce is messy, not to mention expensive on many levels, and they want to avoid the pain if possible -- although few separations are painless. I believe that parents should choose their battles carefully after their children become adults. What these parents are do-
ing may eventually isolate them from their daughters. Acting as they are, there may be other happy occasions they’ll be skipping. This one is just the first. DEAR ABBY: If the letter writer and his wife accept an invitation to someone’s house, do they check first to make sure their hosts share their “values,” that they vote the same way, are against gay marriage, have the same religious beliefs? If they don’t take that same care with everyone they know, they are being unfair to their daughters. For five years they were apparently comfortable with the daughters living at home or in their own apartments and having sex with their boyfriends on the sly. Now that the young women are honestly acknowledging the sexual relationship and formalizing it by living together openly, suddenly there’s a problem. There’s a stench of hypocrisy here. -- ONLINE DEAR ABBY READER Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). The wise don’t care about being first in line. Whatever your place today, you’ll hold it with the kind of detached confidence that attracts the very best. Your way will be made easily. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’d like to have more selfdiscipline. This isn’t a matter of forcing yourself to do what you don’t want to do. It’s about building rewards so luscious that they motivate you to follow through with your intentions. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). What the day needs is an invigorating challenge to kick things off on the right note. Instead of making a list of things to do today, make a list of things to do before 1 p.m. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re getting better, mostly because when you discover your errors, you rejoice at another opportunity to improve. This attitude will take you to mastery.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This is the time of year when the Facebook pages are filled with vacations that look more glamorous than yours. Just know that everyone feels that way. As a matter of fact, someone is envying your posts today. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Whatever your game, this is the start of a hot streak. Between here and the weekend, there will be several small wins that add up to something you’ve wanted for a long time. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll be choosing quickly and sometimes wrongly. That’s fine, too. Wrong choices lead to right choices as long as you’re committed to learning from them. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you fear losing something, you hold onto it too tightly. What if you were to go the other way and let go? It might not be time yet, but you have to admit that this fear is no fun to live with.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s said that fate doesn’t like to be tempted. And yet there is a curious provocateur in you who wants to push the fates and see just how far they will go before they retaliate. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Keeping your skills current requires some dedication, and you’re willing to put in the work. Doing so before it’s really necessary will give you an advantage later. You’ll be ready for an opportunity. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Most people fail more than they succeed. Great people have failed greatly. Failure is part of life, and fearing it can only hold us back. Befriend it instead. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). With an enhanced ability to organize the future, you’ll create a scenario so grand that even you are not sure you’ll be able to pull it off. Leave room for spontaneous magic.

TURN BACK THE CLOCK July 2, 1977 Jim Spencer of the Chicago White Sox becomes the only player other than Lou Gehrig to have two games of eight RBIs. The ďŹ rst baseman, who also had an 8-RBI game on May 14, 1977, begins his day by grounding into a 3-6-3 doubleplay. He follows that with a grand slam, a three-run homer and a run-scoring single.
TRIVIA CORNER
St. Louis getting heroics from seemingly different players each day. Ready to invade Cincinnati for All-Star Game. Opponents batting just .228 in June. Would be ďŹ rst place in NL East or West. Won 17 of last 21 games vs. NL East. Schedule lightens up to close out ďŹ rst half. Most at-bats with runners in scoring position in National League. O’s storm their way into ďŹ rst place in competitive AL East. Lost twice in extra innings last week. Best slugging percentage (.474) in June. Now only one game separates fourth-place Jays from ďŹ rst. Offense may actually be getting worse. Slumped to 10-16 in June. Allowed just three runs or less in nine of their last 12 games. Scored just six runs during current ďŹ ve-game losing streak.

Had productive 21-8 stretch before a recent 1-7 mark left them at .500. Blown ďŹ ve of seven save chances this month. Fans shouldn’t expect any major moves to bolster playoff chances. Opportunity missed: 4-5 vs. Padres and Rockies recently. Tough trip coming up at St. Louis and Pittsburgh. Bullpen ERA a run better than starters’. Last in majors in both on-base percentage and slugging in June. Batting just .205 with runners in scoring position. Believing they can actually get back in the playoff hunt. Opponents have hit 46 home runs in 26 games this month. Kipnis and Brantley batting .320, rest of team .232. Too talented to have worst record in American League. Giancarlo Stanton injury is a killer. Have a chance vs. Phillies and Reds this week to right the ship. Manager Ryne Sandberg ďŹ nally had enough.
On June 26, Milwaukee starter Kyle Lohse pitched six innings, earning a win over the Minnesota Twins. Lohse became the 14th pitcher who has beaten all 30 teams. Can you name the only other two active pitchers who have wins over all 30 teams? Written and compiled by Charlie Miller. Follow Charlie on Twitter: @AthlonCharlie. Email: Charlie.Miller@athlonsports.com TRIVIA ANSWER: A.J. Burnett of Pittsburgh and Dan Haren of Miami are the only other two active pitchers with wins over all 30 teams.
2B Kolten Wong, St. Louis Wong is growing into a superstar both offensively and defensively every week.
The Cubs’ corner inďŹ elders, Anthony Rizzo (left) and Kris Bryant should be All-Stars long beyond the 2018 season.
The New York Mets’ hitters weren’t exactly torching the league over the ďŹ rst few months of the season. But the team is trending in the wrong direction, bad enough to drive even Casey Stengel batty. Over their last 13 games, the Mets are batting just .188 with 29 runs. They’ve whiffed 94 times and have only 80 hits. But thanks to excellent pitching efforts, the team managed to win six of those 13 games... The Boston Red Sox are on the cusp of being completely out of the playoff race in the American League. The lack of pitching has been the primary culprit for the Red Sox woes, but designated hitter David Ortiz is in the midst of a struggle of his own. This season, Big Papi is batting just .115 against left-handed pitching, with no home runs, only four RBIs and one walk...Paul Goldschmidt of Arizona is putting together another tremendous season. With 20 homers and 13 stolen bases, he has accomplished something that’s been done only 13 times since 2000 by a ďŹ rst baseman. This marks the third season that Goldschmidt has as many as 20 home runs and 13 stolen bases. Albert Pujols and Derrek Lee have done it three times each. Ryan Klesko has pulled it off twice and Joey Votto has one 20-13 season. If Goldy reaches 30 home runs and 20 steals (both totals likely), he will join Klesko and Lee as the only 30-20 ďŹ rst basemen this century...Unlike every other team in the American League, the Minnesota Twins don’t seem to mind facing Chris Sale of the Chicago White Sox. The ace lefthander is 1-3 with a 6.46 ERA against the Twins this season. He’s 5-1 with a 1.88 ERA against every other team...Last week, Nick Markakis booted a single, allowing Denard Span to move up an extra base. That ended a 398-game errorless streak for Markakis, a major league record... On June 25, starting pitchers Rubby De La Rosa of Arizona and Jorge De La Rosa of Colorado opposed each other. It marked the ďŹ rst time two De La Rosas had faced each other in the majors. Neither factored in the decision but Rubby left after seven innings with a 2-1 lead. According to Elias, the surname of pitchers to face each other most would be Smith, which has happened 21 times. Shocker.

Bassitt makes emergency start for A’s in loss to Rockies The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. —Chris Bassitt was in Nashville early Tuesday morning when he learned he was going to pitch on short rest in Oakland that night. Hours later, he was on his way up from the minors. Bassitt gave the Athletics a solid outing in a pinch, but it wasn’t enough as the Colorado Rockies edged Oakland 2-1 for their first interleague victory this season. AL ERA leader Sonny Gray was scratched from his scheduled start for the A’s because of illness.
“I felt OK,� Bassitt said. “Short rest is never good for anybody. I’m used to throwing a side on the fourth day, so I told myself, all right, this will be a really extended side.� Four days after throwing five shutout innings in a no-decision against TripleA Oklahoma City, Bassitt nearly repeated his effort in his A’s debut. He pitched five innings, giving up a run and five hits. He struck out three and did not walk a batter. “I don’t know that we could ask for much more,� Oakland manager Bob Mel-
vin said. “He threw strikes, got outs, mixed his pitches, and used different velocities with his two-seamer and four-seamer.� Colorado broke through when Charlie Blackmon’s two-out single in the fifth drove in Ben Paulsen on a pitch Bassitt termed “a terrible curveball.� “He’s way too good of a hitter to make that mistake,� Bassitt said. “It was a bad pitch and he made me pay for it.� Bassitt said he didn’t have much feel and just wanted to throw strikes and hope for the best.
“As long as I don’t walk guys, I like my chances,� he said. “I’m just worried about whenever they call me, I want to be ready to help this team win.� Wilin Rosario singled for the Rockies in the seventh and scored on a wild pitch by Fernando Rodriguez. Colorado had been 0-7 in interleague games this season and had lost 14 straight in American League ballparks before Jorge De La Rosa (5-3) and two relievers combined on a six-hitter. LaTroy Hawkins worked the ninth for his second
save. Hawkins was needed to close after John Axford was placed on the family medical emergency list. Bassitt (0-1) retired his first 10 batters and didn’t allow a baserunner until Troy Tulowitzki flared a single to left that landed just in front of a charging Mark Canha. Ben Zobrist had two hits and scored Oakland’s run in the eighth on Billy Butler’s two-out single off reliever Tommy Kahnle. Nolan Arenado singled in the fourth to extend his major league-leading hitting streak to a career-high
17 games. Tulowitzki has hit in 14 straight for the Rockies, who snapped a three-game skid. Trainer’s Room Rockies: RHP Christian Bergman was placed on the 15-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation. LHP Yohan Flande and RHP Justin Miller were called up from TripleA Albuquerque. Athletics: INF Max Muncy was optioned to Triple-A Nashville to make room for Bassitt on the roster. Muncy was batting .203 with two homers and six RBIs in 34 games with Oakland.

Pittsburgh interested in hosting Super Bowl The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping to turn the 2023 Super Bowl into a home game. The franchise submitted an application at the owner’s meetings in May for the right to bid on the 2023 Super Bowl. It’s the first time the Steelers — whose six Super Bowl victories are the most in the NFL — and city have sent in an application to host the title game. The NFL will not open up the actual bidding for the game until 2018. The vote on who will host the 2023 Super Bowl won’t come until 2019. Team president Art Rooney II met with Pittsburgh leaders on Wednesday to provide an update and also caution that things remain in the exploratory stage. “The application is an early step in the bidding process, and we will continue to meet with representatives of the Mayor’s Office, County Executive’s Office, VisitPittsburgh, Allegheny Conference as well as other community leaders to review the requirements with the hopes of submitting our bid to host Super Bowl LVII in 2023,” Rooney said in a statement. City and team officials will visit previous Super Bowl host cities as part of their due diligence, including cold weather hosts like New Jersey. Rooney told The Associated Press in January 2014 that he was open to approaching the city about hosting one of the world’s biggest annual sporting events at some point. “It takes a lot to host the Super Bowl. We would have to put together the support from private and public sector,” he said. Heinz Field is nearing the end of an offseason expansion that will bring capacity over 67,000. It opened in 2001.

Venus nears Serena showdown The Associated Press
LONDON — Venus Williams is no longer the player she once was, on account of the passage of time and the day-to-day ups and downs of an energy-sapping condition. At age 35, 21 years removed from her first professional tournament, Williams still possesses a dangerous serve, along with the muscle memory that comes with seven Grand Slam singles titles, five at Wimbledon. And so while it is her younger sister Serena who is ranked No. 1, has 20 major titles and owns a 23-match Grand Slam winning streak as of Wednesday, the elder Williams is still in the draw at the All England Club, too — and the siblings
are closing in on what would be their 26th all-in-the-family matchup on tour. “She probably comes back here and, you know, I think, she almost feels like this is home,” said David Witt, Venus’ coach. “When you have confidence, you have everything. That’s with any sport. And I guess when she gets here, it’s a confidence thing.” On the hottest day on record in Wimbledon history, with the temperature topping 95 degrees (35 degrees Celsius) — and a terrific day for American women — both Williams sisters won secondround matches: 16th-seeded Venus beat 95th-ranked Yulia Putintseva of Kazakhstan 7-6 (5), 6-4, while top-seeded
Serena defeated 93rd-ranked Timea Babos of Hungary 6-4, 6-1. Two more wins, and the siblings will meet in the fourth round. “She poses a big threat for me,” Serena said about Venus. They pulled out of doubles on Tuesday, citing “soreness” for Serena, who wants to focus on her pursuit of a fourth consecutive Grand Slam title. Four other women from the U.S. won Wednesday, including two real surprises: 158thranked qualifier Bethanie Mattek-Sands eliminated No. 7 Ana Ivanovic, the 2009 French Open champion, 6-3, 6-4; and 47th-ranked CoCo Vandeweghe, the niece of for-
mer NBA player and executive Kiki, beat No. 11 Karolina Pliskova 7-6 (5), 6-4. Also advancing: No. 21 Madison Keys, who finished off a match suspended because of darkness at 2-all in the third set a night earlier, and Sloane Stephens. A pair of U.S. men moved on, too: No. 17 John Isner and 105th-ranked wild-card entry Denis Kudla, who followed up his victory over No. 28 Pablo Cuevas by getting past 18-year-old Alexander Zverev. “A few years ago, I was being asked, ‘What happened to U.S.A. tennis?’ And I said, ‘Well, it comes and goes.’ I Please see VENUS | 13

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee is opening its doors to the Nike swoosh while bidding farewell to the Lady Vols nickname and logo in all but one sport. Nike took over as Tennessee’s main apparel provider Wednesday as part of an eight-year contract worth about $35 million in money and gear. Tennessee had been an Adidas school since 1997. Rather than holding a press conference to mark
“Smokey gray” alternate uniforms for several teams. The football team’s alternate uniform also features a gray helmet with a silhouette of the Smoky Mountains. Athletic director Dave Hart said on the video that seeing the reaction of the studentathletes wearing the new Nike uniforms “gives me goosebumps.” Those new uniforms will only include a Lady Vols logo in one sport. Tennessee announced in
November that all its teams other than the women’s basketball squad would be called the Volunteers and would adopt the “Power T” logo used by the men’s teams starting in 2015-16. School officials said they made an exception for the women’s basketball team out of respect for that program’s championship legacy and tradition established by former coach Pat Summitt. The move took effect Please see CONTRACT | 13

After each introduction, a Nike official explained the uniform design. “When Nike speaks, everybody listens,” Tennessee football coach Butch Jones said on the video. “We’re proud to be great partners with them moving forward.” The new gear includes
Kevin Love has unfinished business in Cleveland and Tyson Chandler will be conducting his in Phoenix. The first full day of NBA free agency featured skyrocketing salaries and a flurry of moves, though no decision yet from LaMarcus Aldridge. Players and teams agreed to more than $1 bil-
lion worth of deals. Love made his quickly, opting to stay with the Cavaliers on a five-year deal that could be worth more than $110 million. He revealed his decision in a piece in The Players’ Tribune. “We have unfinished business and now it’s time to get back to work,” Love wrote. Jimmy Butler and Mike
Dunleavy also stayed put in Chicago for around $115 million combined, and Goran Dragic is remaining in Miami. But plenty of players were on the move with salaries soaring ahead of next year’s new TV contracts that might make Wednesday’s action seem tame next summer. “I LUV that the players are
bank rolling, capitalize and seize the moment,” Hall of Fame guard and TNT analyst Reggie Miller wrote on Twitter. “Trust me the owners and the league are making money, so should you.” Chandler will get his in Phoenix, taking $52 million over four years to leave DalPlease see NBA | 13
Fernandez makes return to Marlins following 13-month layoff The Associated Press
MIAMI — Miami Marlins ace Jose Fernandez says his long layoff was a life lesson, even if it was lousy for his career. Now he’s back, saying he’s a better person for having made the taxing, tedious recovery from Tommy John surgery. He’ll pitch for the first time since May 9, 2014, when he faces the San Francisco Giants on Thursday. “I’ve been waiting 13 months,” said the 22-year-old Fernandez.
“If I’ve learned something, it’s how to be patient at my age.” Fernandez has always been in a hurry. He pitched only 27 games in the minor leagues, joined the Marlins at age 20 and became NL Rookie of the Year at 21 in 2013. He was the Marlins’ opening day starter last year, but his ascent was interrupted by an elbow ligament injury that required reconstructive surgery. Then came the wait to return. Is Fernandez proud of his pa-
tience? “The first four months, no chance,” he said with a laugh. “Now I feel like I’ve gotten a little better, not only for pitching, but for life.” Fernandez won’t be the only pitcher making a comeback Thursday — Giants right-hander Matt Cain will start for the first time since July 2014. Cain underwent elbow surgery last year and has been sidelined this season with a strained flexor tendon. Another starter
on the disabled list, Jake Peavy, is scheduled to rejoin the San Francisco rotation Friday. While the World Series champion Giants have stayed in the thick of the playoff chase despite a wave of injuries, the Marlins are hoping Fernandez can turn their season around. Despite high expectations, they have fallen into a deep hole in the NL East standings and are without injured slugger Giancarlo Stanton for four to six weeks. At a minimum, the dynamic
Fernandez should improve the mood in the clubhouse and stir fan interest. The Marlins expect a crowd of 25,000 to 30,000 for Thursday’s noon start. “This team, this organization, this city should be excited to have a guy of his ability back in the rotation,” manager Dan Jennings said. “I know he’s excited, and we’re excited about him coming back.” Fernandez will get six days’ Please see FERNANDEZ | 13

think there were a lot of younger players coming that showed promise,” the 30-year-old Mattek-Sands said. “Sure enough, I think we have a really strong contingent of American players and it’s really good to see.” She is halfway to a calendar-year Grand Slam in doubles with Lucie Safarova of the Czech Republic. Serena, meanwhile, is halfway there in singles, and so far this week has a pair of straight-set victories after playing five threesetters at the French Open. After dismissing Babos on Centre Court — where a small electrical fire in a mechanical room set off alarms once play was done for the day — Serena was able to settle in front of a TV to watch Venus finish off Putintseva. “I always root for Venus,” Serena said. “She’s been through a lot in her career. She’s really playing well.” So far at Wimbledon, that is certainly true, including a 6-0, 6-0 victory in the first round. Against Putintseva, Venus’ 29 winners included seven aces, and she reached 122 mph (197 kph) on a serve in the final game. Venus last won the grass-court Grand Slam
tournament in 2008; three years later, she announced that she has Sjogren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disease that can cause joint pain and fatigue. Her nearly 2-hour match Wednesday was the last on Court 3, and wrapped up at about 9 p.m., by which point it was much cooler than earlier. The Met Office, Britain’s official weather service, said the temperature reached 35.7 degrees Celsius (about 96 degrees Fahrenheit) at its closest observation site, about 1 degree Celsius (2 degrees Fahrenheit) higher than the previous tournament record, set in 1976. Spectators fanned themselves in the stands and used everything from hats to umbrellas to towels for shade. A ball boy collapsed during Isner’s match and was taken away on a stretcher. One player, No. 27 Bernard Tomic of Australia, said he felt dizzy during his victory. Others, including Mattek-Sands, wrapped towels filled with ice around their necks during changeovers. “It’s definitely hot, but nothing crazy. We have played in worse. I think it’s just surprising because it’s happening in England, where it usually doesn’t,” Keys said. “We have played through much worse.”
CONTRACT CONTINUED FROM 12
Wednesday to coincide with the start of the Nike deal. Nike had conducted a brand audit of Tennessee that suggested maintaining the Lady Vols nickname and logo would be inconsistent with the university’s “One Tennessee” theme, but school officials say the university made this decision on its own. The only remaining majorconference school to give all its women’s teams a nickname different from its men’s squads is Oklahoma State, which calls its men’s teams the Cowboys and its women’s teams the Cowgirls. While hundreds of fans were lining up outside a Vol Shop at Neyland Stadium waiting to buy Nike gear Wednesday as soon as the store opened, Susan Whitlow and Sylvia Billingsley wore “Save Lady Vols” T-shirts and collected signatures for a petition to preserve the Lady Vol nickname and logo for all Tennessee women’s teams. “We have to fight for what we think is right,” Billingsley said. “Ninety-nine percent of the people we ask about it, they say, ‘Why is it going away? We don’t understand. We like it.’ By continuing on, hopefully they’ll change their mind once they’ve had a chance to really think about it.” The first person to get in line outside the Neyland Stadium Vol Shop was Rod Fair of Knoxville, who said he arrived Tuesday at 10 p.m. As
the first person in line, he received a gift card for a free pair of shoes. “It was kind of like a spur-of-the-moment thing,” Fair said. “I knew I had to get here. I just love my Vols and I love Nike, so I wanted to make sure I showed up.” Tennessee’s Nike contract actually is worth less financially than its previous deal with Adidas. Under teams of the Nike contract, Tennessee will receive an average of $950,000 per year in cash and a retail value of nearly $3.2 million per year in product. Tennessee also got a $2 million signing bonus. Tennessee received $1.95 million per year in cash and a wholesale value of $1.8 million per year in product in its most recent contract with Adidas. Tennessee associate athletic director Chris Fuller said the wholesale value of $1.8 million would equate to about $3.6 million in retail value. The Nike contract does give Tennessee a higher percentage of royalties than its Adidas deal. Tennessee officials believe its student-athletes preferred Nike and that the company’s marketing muscle and popular appeal could aid recruiting and provide an energy boost. “These deals are a lot more nuanced than just looking at the baseline financial number,” Fuller said. “I think this transition now will be a catalyst for our competitive renaissance. I really do. I think we’re right on the verge.”

GM Dipoto quits after 31⁄2 years with Angels poto’s desire for the Angels to play with more attention to statistical analysis and scouting reports. Scioscia still claims he is working well as a team with Dipoto, but the executive apparently is leaving the big-budget Angels (41-37), who have won four straight games to move a season-high four games over .500. Scioscia repeatedly claimed he didn’t know what was going on with Dipoto during his pregame availability, saying he hadn’t spoken to Dipoto in the past 24 hours. “I think our team is pretty focused,” Scioscia said before Wednesday’s game. “I think you can see that, so I don’t know if there is anything along those lines, as far as a distraction. I think we’ve been playing well on the field, and hopefully that’s our focus.” Scioscia is the longesttenured manager in baseball, running the Angels’
dugout since 2000. He is signed through 2018, but can opt out of the deal this winter. The Angels’ players learned about Dipoto’s impending departure from news reports, but they’ve endured their share of bizarre episodes with mercurial owner Arte Moreno’s franchise. Earlier this season, an angry Moreno traded Josh Hamilton back to Texas, eating an astonishing portion of his $125 million contract just to be rid of the troubled, underachieving former AL MVP who was hoping for a comeback. “All around, a weird year in the front office with what’s going on with Jerry and then what happened with Josh,” left-hander Hector Santiago said. “Definitely one of the weirder years for me.” The 47-year-old Dipoto is a former major league reliever who briefly served
as the Arizona Diamondbacks’ interim GM before the Angels hired him in late 2011 to replace Tony Reagins. Dipoto has had a moderately successful tenure with the Angels, who won 98 games and the AL West title last season in their only playoff appearance under his leadership. His contract option for 2016 was picked up earlier this season by the Angels, who are playing some of their best baseball of a mediocre season over the past two weeks. “I don’t know any of the details,” AL MVP Mike Trout said. “We can’t change our game. We’re going to go out there and play our hardest.” Dipoto capably handled the pressure of working for the willful Moreno, who initiated and made the final decisions on the club’s lavish signings of sluggers Albert Pujols and Hamilton.
rest before his second start, which is also scheduled to be at Marlins Park on July 9 against Cincinnati. One Marlins fan, Andres Salgado, let his hair and beard grow during Fernandez’s hiatus. To celebrate their ace’s return — and raise money
for charity — the Marlins invited Salgado to the ballpark before Wednesday’s game, and Fernandez helped shave his head and face. “Look, he’s becoming a good-looking guy now,” Fernandez said with a grin after turning the clippers over to an actual barber. Yet to be determined is how soon Fernandez
might look like his old self, a pitcher who went 16-8 with a 2.25 ERA in 36 career starts before his injury. Fernandez endured no significant setbacks during his rehabilitation. But Marlins closer A.J. Ramos, who underwent Tommy John surgery while at Texas Tech, acknowledged it’s not a given Fernandez will
immediately excel. “I went through the same thing when I was in college, and it’s a long process,” Ramos said. “When you’re away from the mound for a long time, it’s tough. A lot of it is mental. It’s just about getting over that mental hump and knowing that you can still go out there and compete and not have any issues.”
cap space and re-signed guard Danny Green, who got $45 million for four years. Aldridge was among the top big men available when the market opened early Wednesday morning, considered by many the best one who might consider moving. The Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan was another top big man on that list. There had been specu-
lation Love might bolt after one season in Cleveland, though he had said repeatedly he planned to stay. He said he had been in contact recently with management and his teammates, alluding to spending time poolside with LeBron James. “Yeah, of course I’ve heard the free agency rumors,” Love wrote. “But at the end of the day, and after meeting with my
teammates (it turns out pools are great meeting places) and with the front office, it was clear Cleveland was the place for me. We’re all on the same page and we’re all in.” In a market filled with big men, the little guys were also getting theirs. That includes around $90 million for Dragic in Miami and $70 million for Brandon Knight in Phoenix — where he took
over the ballhandling duties that Dragic handled before he was dealt to the Heat. Khris Middleton also received $70 million to remain in Milwaukee following his strong season. He and Carroll were two of the top wing players available and the Raptors paid well to get the latter, though they also lost forward Amir Johnson to Boston.
The Associated Press
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Los Angeles Angels general manager Jerry Dipoto says he has resigned, but the team is refusing to confirm his departure. Dipoto told the Los Angeles Times and the Orange County Register on Wednesday that he has quit after 3 1/2 years with the Angels, but manager Mike Scioscia and Angels spokesman Tim Mead repeatedly declined to acknowledge any changes ahead of a team meeting before their game against the New York Yankees. Dipoto’s mostly successful tenure apparently came to an abrupt end shortly after details of another team meeting were leaked to Fox Sports. Scioscia and Dipoto previously have clashed over philosophical differences during the GM’s tenure, and the latest dispute reportedly concerned Di-

las, while Atlanta’s DeMarre Carroll agreed to a deal with Toronto for $60 million over four years. Deals can only be agreed to during the first week of free agency. They can’t be signed until July 9, after next season’s salary cap is set. Aldridge was busy meeting with teams for a second straight day while
he decides whether to leave Portland. His representatives wrote on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon that he had made no decisions, even following reports that the Lakers had been eliminated. The Spurs were among the teams hoping to land him and were making moves to entice him. They dealt Tiago Splitter to Atlanta to clear
