A federal lawsuit filed
Thursday in Texarkana

The suit alleges that
Leah Rothman and an

using some of the same tactics
pharmaceutical sales forces
used to push their potent pills
into communities—this time,
to get them out.
She drives 100 miles a day
to visit doctors across west-
ern Pennsylvania’s Allegheny
and Westmoreland counties,
where prescription painkill-
ers and their illicit cousin,
heroin, killed more than 600
people last year. Bearing a
smile, educational pamphlets
and sometimes sandwiches,
she is working to help doc-
tors stick to new national pre-
scribing guidelines, give them
tips on how to handle patients
demanding pills and remind
them that opioids aren’t very
good for chronic pain anyway.
“Most people trust their doc-
tors,” said Jones’ boss, Cheryl
Bartlett. “But we haven’t
trained doctors about addic-
tion, how to recognize it early
and treat it in their practices.
Why not help doctors better
understand how to care for
their patients?”
The rate of opioid prescrib-
ing has started to edge down in
recent years, but it remains 56
percent higher than it was 20
years ago, enough to provide
nearly every adult in America
with a bottle of pills. The num-
ber of overdose deaths is still
climbing, from pills that have
been prescribed and from the
surge of even more powerful
opioids like fentanyl on the
black market, where many turn
for cheaper drugs after becom-
ing addicted.
While narcotics can bring
short-term pain relief and help
patients with cancer and in
end-of-life care, they’re often
misprescribed.
Increasingly, the fight to save
lives has put doctors in the
crosshairs: They often feel
they have no good choices
doctor in Monroeville outside
of Pittsburgh, to get patients to
agree to a urine screen to test
for prescription medications
and illicit drugs. Now, with
new guidelines and pocket
cards from Jones that help her
explain the screens, patients
don’t fight her anymore.
Evidence from New York
City’s public health depart-
ment and the Veterans Health
Administration suggests Jones
and others like her can reduce
opioid prescribing, adapting
a tried-and-true tactic from
the pharmaceutical industry
called detailing.
Drug companies send char-
ismatic sales reps to visit doc-
tors with free pens, lunches
and pill samples, along with
sometimes-skewed informa-
tion.
In 2007, Purdue Pharma
agreed to pay more than $600
million in fines for falsely
informing its sales force that
its opioid pill OxyContin had
less potential for addiction and
abuse than other painkillers.
The marketing helped feed a
20-year trend of skyrocketing
prescribing.
Jones, who has a nursing
background, is fighting back
with a charm offensive of sci-
ence-backed facts.
“When I see her coming, I
know I’m going to learn some-
thing and it’s fair,” said Dr.
Rudy Antoncic, an internist in
McKeesport.
Antoncic said he doesn’t
have time to monitor patients
for addiction, discuss overdose
reversal drugs or follow other
steps in new opioid-prescrib-
ing guidelines—so he refers
patients to pain specialists
instead.
“I’m forced to say, ‘Go to the
pain clinic. Let those guys fig-
ure it out,’” he said.
Pain medicine emerged in the
1970s as a specialty. Many pain
specialists prescribe respon-
sibly, but others are notorious
over-prescribers, handing out
medicine to known addicts.
the doctors. Those usually
aren’t covered by insurance so
can be expensive for patients,
Rosenthal said. Physical ther-
apy might be covered, but
co-pays add up.
Many chronic pain patients
with valid opioid prescriptions
become addicted—the best
guess is about 1 in 10, accord-
ing to an analysis of 38 studies.
For patients dependent on
opioids, Jones makes sure doc-
tors know how to taper them
gradually to a lower dose. A
pocket card she gives them
suggests starting off by cut-
ting the dose by a quarter or a
half each week, which prompts
scoffs from most doctors.
Cutting a dose in half “would
not be well-received” by
patients, Rosenthal said.
Start off slower, Jones
nudged, reminding that using
antihistamines or antidiarrheal
drugs can help manage with-
drawal symptoms.
Another big worry for doc-
tors trying to limit opioids for
patients: Some patients may
seek pills from dealers on the
street.
It’s been more than a year
since the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention pub-
lished the first national pre-
scribing guidelines for opi-
oids. The action was followed
quickly by most state gover-
nors signing an unprecedent-
ed Compact to Fight Opioid
Addiction.
The ultimate goal is fewer
deaths, but it may take years.
Research suggests “it takes

somewhere between 13 to
17 years for a new guideline
to get fully implemented,”
said University of Colorado
researcher Robert Valuck,
who coordinates his state’s
response to the opioid crisis.
Among laws aimed at doc-
tors, one of the more promis-
ing requires them to check a
prescription drug-monitoring
database to weed out patients
with multiple doctors, pharma-
cies and prescriptions. Most
states now have these databas-
es. Pennsylvania is among the
few requiring doctors to check
it every time they prescribe an
opioid.
One study found states
requiring such checks, com-
bined with restrictions on
pain clinics, reduced opioid
prescribing by 8 percent and
prescription opioid overdose
death rates by 12 percent, with-
out increasing heroin overdose
deaths.
Doctors tell Jones they love
the new requirement because
it keeps them from being
fooled into feeding addiction.
Some patients even say they
don’t want to be tracked, so
will stop taking opioids. If doc-
tors can change their behav-
ior and patients can change
their expectations, there may
be hope.
“We can’t wait 17 years,”
Valuck said. “The cost to
society is too great. We have
to address this problem as
aggressively as we can.”
Trump to announce plan to stop
the cash flow to Cuban military
By Darlene Superville
and Michael Weissenstein
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Stopping
short of a complete turnabout,
President Donald Trump is
expected Friday to announce a
revised Cuba policy aimed at
stopping the flow of U.S. cash to
the country’s military and secu-
rity services while maintaining
diplomatic relations and allow-
ing U.S. airlines and cruise ships
to continue service to the island.
In a speech Friday at a Miami
theater associated with Cuban
exiles, Trump will cast the policy
moves as fulfillment of a prom-
ise he made during last year’s
presidential campaign to reverse
then-President Barack Obama’s
diplomatic re-engagement with
the island after decades of
estrangement.
Senior White House officials
who briefed reporters Thursday
on the coming announcement
said Obama’s overtures had
enriched Cuba’s military while
repression increased on the
island. The officials spoke on
condition of anonymity to dis-
cuss the policy before Trump
announces it, despite the pres-
ident’s regular criticism of the
use of anonymous sources.
The moves to be announced by
Trump are only a partial rever-

sal of Obama’s policies, however.
And they will saddle the U.S. gov-
ernment with the complicated
task of policing U.S. travel to Cuba
to make sure there are no trans-
actions with the military-linked
conglomerate that runs much of
the Cuban economy.
By restricting individual U.S.
travel to Cuba, the new policy
also risks cutting off a major
source of income for Cuba’s pri-
vate business sector, which the
policy is meant to support.
Under the expected changes,
the U.S. will ban American finan-
cial transactions with the dozens
of enterprises run by the mili-

it faces the same problem as the
House version since it would
likely deprive millions of their
health care coverage—including
many rural white Trump vot-
ers—by slashing funds, though
more slowly, for the Medicaid
portion of the Affordable Care
Act’s expanded coverage.
Though only snippets have
leaked, the GOP leader seems to
be trying to appease more mod-
erate GOP senators by delay-
ing the House’s 2020 cutoff for
the provision that has provided
more than 11 million Americans
with health care coverage. He
would also remove some of the
state waiver authority on cover-
age and pre-existing conditions
states more time to pick up the
slack.
But McConnell also has to deal
with GOP conservatives like
Utah’s Mike Lee and Kentucky’s
Rand Paul who don’t think the
House bill went far enough in
scrapping the Affordable Care
Act.
Because he is trying to pass
the bill with only GOP senators,
in order to avoid a Democratic
filibuster, McConnell can only
afford to lose two of the 52
Republicans. That would create
a 50-50 tie that could be broken
by the Senate’s presiding offi-
cer, Vice President Mike Pence.
Meanwhile, administration
officials and their Capitol Hill
allies are sounding the same
false note that, as Pence put it,
“Obamacare is collapsing and
taking the American people
down with it.” In fact, the non-
partisan Congressional Budget
Office concluded that mainte-
nance of the current law’s sub-
sidies and required coverage
would be enough “for the mar-
ket to be stable in most areas.”
Trump staged events Tuesday
in Wisconsin and last week in
Cincinnati with “victims of the
Obamacare catastrophe created
fully insured coverage and an
increasing lack of overall pre-
dictability” for its action.
In North Carolina, the head
of another insurance company
was more explicit.
“The information coming
from the administration actu-
ally creates more uncertainty
rather than creating greater cer-
tainty,” said Brad Wilson, chief
executive of Blue Cross Blue
Shield North Carolina, which
filed a 22.9 percent Obamacare
increase for 2018. If the admin-
istration guaranteed it would
pay the subsidies, the increase
would have been just 8.8 per-
cent, he said, telling Vox’s Sarah
Kliff that the North Carolina
market has actually been stabi-
lizing “in terms of price, utili-
zation and the customer base.”
Given the public’s poor recep-
tion of the House bill—recent
polls showed more than half
opposed it, and less than one-
fourth supported it—you’d
think Senate Republicans would
be reluctant to follow a similar
path. But it may well still hap-
pen, though any bill passing the
Senate would have to be recon-
ciled with the different House
version.

Congress in motion: Republicans to satisfy the GOP

What must be done
before August recess hits
Coming back from their
Memorial Day break, members
of Congress resumed work this
week on a lengthy agenda of
actions that they need to com-
plete before going on their long
end-of-summer break, sched-
uled to begin Aug. 1.
The first of these is raising
the national debt limit. Federal
government debt now stands
at $19.9 trillion. It is gauged
to pass its limit by mid-sum-
mer, weeks off. Congressional
action to raise it will set off,
primarily among the majority
Republicans, a titanic battle
between the Freedom Caucus,
who believe not only that the
level of national debt should
not rise further but even begin
to fall, and more mainstream
Republicans.
The Democrats won’t want to
help, first, because they don’t
like how the Republicans want
to spend federal money, more
for defense and less for social
services, and second because
they enjoy seeing the majority
Republicans scrapping among
themselves. The Republicans
want to spend $54 billion more
than the Pentagon asked for on
defense. The Democrats look
for leverage to protect spending
on Medicaid, food stamps and
other social services.
Other priority areas for
Congress include completion of
action replacing the Affordable
Care Act with the American
Health Care Act, Trumpcare.

The Republican successor to
the ACA was passed by the
House of Representatives but
remains bogged down in the
Senate. Prospects for passage
of tax reform, also promised by
President Donald Trump and
on the congressional agenda,
remain cloudy. To Democrats,
who recognize the need for tax
reform, the bill still looks too
much like giving tax breaks to
the rich while doing little for
the poor, whose ranks continue
to grow.
There are also the supposedly
routine spending bills, a dozen
of them, that need to be passed
by Sept. 30 to prevent the fed-
eral government, or parts of it,
and the elements in state gov-
ernment that depend on them,
from being shut down.
Then there is the much-prom-
ised infrastructure bill. Trump
talks about $1 trillion, to fix
locks and dams as well as roads
and bridges.
All of this is supposed to be
completed before the August
break. Americans hope so, but
beaches, lakes and donors and
voters to court will beckon.
In the meantime, the issue
of Russian involvement in
America’s elections will attract
a lot of congressional and pub-
lic attention, as it should, partic-
ularly given its potential impact
on future candidacies.

Though the prospects remain

That’s the Times’ story, and they’re sticking to it
This past Sunday, The New
York Times did a piece on a
conservative activist spreading
snippets of false news boost-
ing President Donald Trump.
Some got picked up by internet
sites and even by Fox News
and radio host Rush Limbaugh.
Here’s the question. When is
the Times going to worry about
its own incessant liberal bias
and a major story of its mak-
ing that was “almost entirely
wrong?”
The quoted phrase comes
from testimony by former
FBI Director James Comey
before the Senate Intelligence
Committee. He was testifying
under oath about a Times arti-
cle based on four anonymous
sources crucifying Trump’s
campaign team on a cross of
what now seem to have been
errors.
The Times said intercepted
phone calls showed “Trump
associates had repeated con-
tacts with Russian intelligence
officials” in 2015. Relying on
sources who are or had been
government officials and could
still be guilty of felonies for
leaking classified information,
the story played a fundamen-
tally important role in giv-
ing credence to the idea that
the Trump campaign worked
secretly with Russians in in
the hacking of Hillary Clinton
Doonesbury Classic
that was added to win House
support from its most conser-
vative members.
McConnell reportedly wants
to delay the Medicaid phase-
out until 2023. But it remains
unclear whether that alone
would attract enough GOP sen-
ators from states where large
numbers would lose coverage.

campaign computers with the
intent of throwing the election
to Trump.
The story did get one thing
right. It said no evidence of
conspiracy had been found.
Among the many things it got
wrong was repeating the phony
tale that Trump once said he
hoped the Russians had stolen
Clinton’s emails.
He did say that if they had
them, they should share them.
But he did this in the context
of the hacking only transpir-
ing because President Barack
Obama was a weak leader. He
was not talking about campaign
emails, but emails on a per-
sonal server when Clinton was
secretary of state. They could
have shown Clinton guilty of
by congressional Democrats,”
trying to take advantage of
Anthem’s announcement it
was withdrawing its Affordable
Care Act participation in Ohio.
However, when Anthem
announced that decision, it
seemed to blame the admin-
istration by citing “the lack of
certainty of funding for cost
obstruction of justice even
though she said they were just
about such things as yoga and
grandkids—no big deal.
The Times is sticking by its
story as well as with its over-
reaching enthusiasm for anon-
ymous sources and printing
classified information. It’s hard
to imagine Comey lying under
oath or being wrong in basic
understandings. Anonymous
sources, while sometimes nec-
essary, cost news outlets credi-
bility because their reliability is
less sure than when going on the
record. Printing classified infor-
mation abets crime and can put
individuals and the public good
at risk, but the Times frequently
puts its own judgment ahead
of officials more in the know,
sometimes maybe being right.
And sometimes not.
Concerning the whole collu-
sion idea, you could say the
Times colluded with Russia by
printing the stories it passed on
to WikiLeaks during the elec-
tion campaign. If the paper did
not do so for the purpose of
sales through sensationalism,
it did so because the stories
appeared to be truthful and to
serve the public interest. The

come but likely made next to

Most GOP senators don’t
face re-election in 2018, mak-
ing them less vulnerable to
a voter backlash. And one

sensible Republicans to act like

about Russia has more to do
with wanting to get rid of him
no matter what than wanting to
preserve democratic norms.
The Times’ own culpability,
which includes writing straight
news stories as if they were
editorials, was made evident
on its front page the day after
Comey’s testimony. The paper
then treated something perfect-
ly legal as surely the end of
Trump’s world. Comey testified
that Trump said he hoped the
FBI would quit investigating his
national security advisor, view-
ing his request as improper. But
presidents have the authority
to begin and end investigations
and have done so repeatedly,
sometimes using their authority
in various ways to the advan-
tage of friends.
The Times actually went so
far in a front-page story as to
ponder the possibility of a crim-
inal prosecution against Trump,
such being the lopsidedness of
the times.
A Times public editor recent-
ly made so bold as to wonder
about some reportorial political
excesses in emails and other
matters, and now she has been
fired with no replacements
scheduled. The unchallenge-
able Times remains a good
newspaper in some respects but
it has abandoned the greatness
of its past.

complaint states. “Defendants’
motive in infringing Peteski’s
copyrights was to smear plaintiff
and extort money from plain-

Peteski is the production com-
pany that owns the rights to
the “Dr. Phil Show,” which stars
psychologist Phil McGraw and
is the highest-rated daytime tele-
vision show broadcast in the
United States, according to the
complaint.
Texarkana lawyers George
McWilliams and David Folsom,
along with Dallas lawyer Chip
Babcock, filed the suit on
Peteski’s behalf in the Texarkana
Division of the Eastern District of
Texas. Babcock and Folsom are

The complaint accuses
Rothman and her unknown
alleged co-conspirator of violat-
ing copyright law by making a
copy of the video file, which was
filmed in 2014.
“The video footage was taken
onboard a private plane,” the
complaint states. “In the video,
McGraw is speaking with a pro-
duction team of the ‘Dr. Phil
Show’ and is preparing to do a
take for an episode of the ‘Dr.
Phil Show.’”
The complaint describes the
alleged copyright infringement
as malicious, willful and in bad
faith.
“Defendants were fully aware
that their actions were wrong
and unauthorized as evidenced
by the fact that defendants bla-
tantly attempted to conceal their
involvement procuring the pur-
loined recording of the video,”
the complaint states.

Mayweather Jr. said Wednesday he will come out of retirement to face UFC star McGregor in a boxing match on Aug. 26.
Mayweather, who retired in September 2015 after winning all 49 of his pro fights, will face a mixed martial arts fighter who has
never been in a scheduled 12-round fight at the MGM Grand arena. The fight will take place in a boxing ring and be governed
by boxing rules.

Deichmann broke his cheekbone in
three places when he was hit by a pitch
in a preseason scrimmage, and since
surgery he has worn a protective cage
that covers the right side of his face.
The Oakland Athletics' second-round
draft pick plans to continue wearing

"It gives me a sense of security," he
said. "I don't have any post-traumatic

The Texas Marshals came into the
game ranked last in team batting

night when the Texarkana Twins'

struck out 16 in a 10-0 victory.
Texas batters banged out 16 hits
Wednesday in beating the Twins,
10-6, with nine hits in the first
three innings.
The Twins slip to 3-13 with the

play the first-place Brazos Valley

“We wanted to win, and I thought
we competed well; We did some
things that we can learn from, and
I won't say I'm disappointed,” said
coach Jake Mitzner. “We had a
rough start, but we finished well.
We could still be playing if that

had fell, but the outfielder made a

a steal attempt, and another on a

“Texas hit everything today;
we took it to them Tuesday, and

Pitino outraged at NCAA penalties; Louisville will appeal
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky.—The NCAA didn't
feel Louisville went far enough with its
self-imposed sanctions following a sex
scandal investigation, so the governing
body Thursday handed down a few
more.
An outraged Rick Pitino feels the
NCAA went too far.
After completing its investigation of
Katina Powell's allegations that she
and other escorts where hired to have
sex parties and strip for Louisville
recruits and players, antics the NCAA
described as “repugnant,” it benched
the Cardinals men's basketball coach
for five games and imposed several
other penalties.
Pitino's suspension is less than Jim
Boeheim and Larry Brown recently
received for NCAA violations.
Still, Louisville said it is appealing
the NCAA's decision, and even that
wasn't enough for Pitino. He fired a
few salvos at the NCAA after review-
ing the report.
“Not only was this unjust and over
the top in its severity,” the coach said
at a news conference, “but I've lost a
lot of faith in the NCAA.”
Pitino, who has repeatedly denied
any knowledge of former assistant
Andre McGee's interactions with
Powell, wasn't done.
“We are devastated by the news, all of
us are,” the Hall of Fame coach added.
“But moving forward we believe we
will win the appeal because it's right
and it's just, and what went on was
unjust and inconceivable.”
The NCAA suspended Pitino for
five Atlantic Coast Conference games;
Boeheim and Brown each served nine-
game suspensions for their indiscre-
tions.
Louisville had self-imposed several
sanctions, including a postseason ban
in 2015-16.
The NCAA accepted those, and
GOLF | U.S. OPEN
Rickie Fowler leads
U.S. Open on day
of highs and lows
By Doug Ferguson
The Associated Press
ERIN, Wis.—Erin Hills played
like a pushover for a U.S. Open.
Check out the score of Rickie
Fowler, who matched the U.S.
Open scoring record to par for
the opening round with a 7-under
65. Right behind him were 43
other players who broke par,
breaking a championship record
that had stood for 27 years. Adam
Hadwin tied a U.S. Open record
with six straight birdies.
Erin Hills also played like a
beast.
Look no further than Rory
McIlroy, the No. 2 player in the
world, who didn't hit a fairway
after the 10th hole, shot 42 on the
back nine and posted a 78, his
worst score in 27 rounds at the
U.S. Open. Jason Day made two
triple bogeys and closed with a
birdie to avoid the indignity of
shooting 80. He still had his worst
score in a U.S. Open.
There were as many amateurs
who broke par as players in the
top 10 in the world—two each.
On a wild day of highs and
lows—and even a commercial
blimp that crashed and caught
fire outside the golf course during
the round—Fowler emerged with
a one-shot lead over Paul Casey
and U.S. Open rookie Xander
Schauffele in a most peculiar
debut for the 11-year-old golf
course.
"Definitely not U.S. Open-like,"
Marc Leishman said.
Defending champion Dustin
Johnson made only one birdie in
his round of 75. Taking the long
walk to sign his card, he looked
back at the rain-softened course
and mild breeze and said wistful-
ly, "You won't get a better day for
scoring."
No one took advantage like
Fowler.
Fowler, who shared the 36-hole
lead at the Masters in April, never
came seriously close to bogey
because he was never in trouble.
He kept it in the short grass, the
secret to Erin Hills that wouldn't
appear to be that difficult with
some of the widest fairways for
this major.
Fowler's seven birdies were
from no more than 12 feet, includ-
ing three in a row around the
turn. His 7-under par tied the
record to par for the first round of
a U.S. Open held by Jack Nicklaus
and Tom Weiskopf, who each
shot 7-under 63 at Baltusrol in
1980. He also joined McIlroy
(2011 at Congressional) and Tiger
Woods (2000 at Pebble Beach)
as the only players to shoot 66
or better in the opening round
without a bogey.
"It is always cool to be part
of some sort of history in golf,"
Fowler said. "But I'd rather be
remembered for something that's
done on Sunday."
n University of Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino speaks during an NCAA college
basketball news conference Thursday in Louisville, Ky. The NCAA suspended Pitino on
Thursday for five ACC games following a sex scandal investigation. A former men's
basketball staffer is alleged to have hired strippers to entertain players and recruits.
tacked on more. The other penalties
Louisville received include vacating
wins in which ineligible players partic-
ipated, placing the basketball program
on four years' probation, and issuing a
10-year show-cause order for McGee,
Louisville's former basketball opera-
tions director.
The NCAA has not vacated the
Cardinals' 2013 national champion-
ship—yet. And that might be one rea-
son Pitino and Louisville officials are
adamant about appealing the decision.
The NCAA said the school must
determine which games ineligible
players participated in, and that might
include the Cardinals title game.
Players deemed ineligible would be
those involved in the sex parties, which
are considered impermissible benefits.
Compliance consultant Chuck Smrt,
The 44 sub-par rounds broke
the first-round mark of 39 at
Medinah in 1990.
Day fell back when it took
him three chips from behind the
green at No. 4 to get it on the put-
ting surface, leading to the first of
his two triple bogeys.
"I just played bad golf, man,"
Day said.
McIlroy joked earlier in the
week that anyone who couldn't
hit such wide fairways "might
as well pack your bags and go
home." He spent all day in the
knee-high fescue.
"You cannot play this golf
course if you're not in position off
the tee, and I wasn't in position,"
McIlroy said. "Obviously, I paid
the price for it today."
Casey started eagle-birdie and
finished with two birdies over the
final four holes for his 66.
Schauffele had a chance to
tie Fowler for the lead until his
12-foot birdie putt on the par-3
ninth slid by on the right.
The opening round was without
Phil Mickelson for the first time
since 1993. He was in California
for his daughter's high school
graduation, hopeful for enough
of a weather delay to jet across
the country to Wisconsin. But
as the sun rose over Erin Hills,
and the forecast was for no rain,
Mickelson withdrew.
More startling than the low
scores was smoke rising from
about a half-mile away when a
commercial blimp, not affiliat-
ed with the tournament, crashed
into a field and burst into flames.
The pilot, the only one aboard the
blimp operated by Florida-based
AirSign, was being treated for
injuries.
"I was teeing off and I looked up
and saw it on fire, and I felt sick
to my stomach," Jamie Lovemark
said.
On the golf course, there was
only a barrage of birdies.
Hadwin made his six straight
birdies from No. 18 through No. 5.
The Canadian was 100 feet away
for birdie on No. 6 and burned
the edge of the cup on that one,
except that it ran by some 7 feet
and he three-putted for bogey.
The course was set up at
7,845 yards, the longest of any
major. Length wasn't the issue.
It was sporadic storms earlier in
the week that has softened the
greens. One example of that was
Fowler hitting 3-wood into the
green on the 632-yard 18th hole,
with a breeze at his back. His
ball landed on the green and only
rolled out about 10 feet. On typi-
cal U.S. Open greens, that would
have run all the way off the back
of the green.
Still to be determined is what
kind of test Erin Hills can present
the rest of the week, especially
with more rain on the way Friday
and Saturday afternoon.
Associated Press
hired by Louisville when the allega-
tions surfaced, estimated that 108 reg-
ular season games and approximately
15 NCAA wins could be impacted—
including the Cardinals' third national
championship.
“The additional penalties imposed
by the committee were the ones that
surprised us,” Smrt said during a news
conference that included Pitino, athlet-
ic director Tom Jurich and Louisville
interim President Greg Postel.
Postel issued a statement saying the
school believes the additional “severe”
penalties are excessive and plans to
appeal. The university, which self-im-
posed several sanctions, has 45 days
to respond.
“The entire UofL community is sad-
dened by what took place. It never
should have happened, and that is why
n New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram runs through drills during NFL football practice Tuesday in Metairie, La.
FOOTBALL | SAINTS
Ingram motivated by push
from Peterson in backfield
The Associated Press
METAIRIE, La.—Mark Ingram clear-
ly has no intention of playing second
fiddle to Adrian Peterson in the New
Orleans Saints' backfield.
That doesn't mean there will
be an internal rivalry or any ani-
mus in the club's running backs
room, or that Ingram is even sen-
sitive to the considerable attention
Peterson's arrival in New Orleans has r
eceived.
Peterson “is one of the best run-
ning backs that's ever walked on this
planet, especially in our generation,”
Ingram said during Saints minicamp
this week.
“He is a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer,
clearly, right?” Ingram continued.
“I've admired him ever since he was
a freshman at Oklahoma. We're in
the same backfield now and we're
competing and making each other
better.”
While Peterson is 32 and coming
off a 2016 meniscal tear that required
season-ending knee surgery after only
three games, the 27-year-old Ingram
is returning from a 1,000-yard season
rushing and also had more than 300
yards receiving. A former Heisman
Trophy winner with Alabama and
2011 first-round draft choice by New
Orleans, Ingram's career was injury
plagued and relatively unproductive
early on. Last season, however, he
was among the NFL's best in yards-
per-carry at 5.1, which might be the
most accurate measure of how well
he played in an offense that has long
revolved around quarterback Drew
Brees' prolific passing.
the school acted to severely penalize
itself in 2016,” Postel said. “Today, how-
ever, the NCAA Division I Committee
on Infractions went beyond what we
consider to be fair and reasonable.
“We intend to appeal all aspects of
the penalties.”
The long-awaited NCAA announce-
ment reiterated its original view that
Pitino should have known about
McGee's activities with Powell, who
alleged in a 2015 book that staffer
McGee paid her $10,000 for 22 shows
at the Cardinals' dormitory from 2010-
14, a period that includes their NCAA
title run.
The NCAA's release included state-
ments by the panel on its decision,
saying: “The types of activities that
occurred in this case were repug-
nant and threaten the integrity of the
NCAA Collegiate Model, regardless.”
Chief hearing officer Carol
Cartwright also dismissed idea that
the amount of money involved—esti-
mated by the NCAA to be at least
$5,400—was relatively small.
“In this case, we felt that any of the
acts, on their own, would be Level 1
and be inappropriate,” Cartwright said
in a conference call.
Other penalties prescribed by the
panel also include men's basketball
scholarship reductions and recruit-
ing restrictions; a fine of $5,000, plus
the university must return money
received through conference revenue
sharing for its appearances in the 2012
to 2015 NCAA men's basketball cham-
pionships.
The panel had harsh comments
about McGee's actions in its decision.
“The former operations director, the
individual entrusted to keep order at
Minardi Hall, created an environment
that has no place on a college campus
and was directly at odds with college
athletics and higher education,” the
panel said.
Pitino has maintained during the
“Anytime I have the opportunity to
touch the ball regularly, rushing or
passing, I am going to be productive,”
Ingram said. “I know the last three
years I have had the best three years
of my career. I have only been getting
better.”
Ingram said he and Peterson will
keep one another sharp because they
“both want to be the best at what we
do … and we're both going to work our
butts off to make sure that happens.”
“There's no personal vendetta,”
Ingram added. “We just come out here
and compete.”
Ingram said that off the field he and
Peterson have been getting along well
and sharing information about their
approach to playing their position.
Ingram noted that he and Peterson
recently discussed how to balance
patience, vision, decisiveness and
aggression when trying to get first-
down yardage on third and short.
Ingram said putting his head down
and barreling forward toward the first
sign of an opening has been his incli-
nation, but sometimes a choice he
regretted because, “If you would have
followed your read and followed the
guard outside, you would have had a
30-yard run.”
Ingram recalled Peterson telling him,
“I've noticed that in that time you just
have to slow down and trust your
eyes.”
Peterson said he has been impressed
with Ingram.
“He's a hard worker and he's been
helping me a lot trying to pick up
this new terminology,” Peterson said.
“Each running back has their own

investigation he had no knowledge
of the activities described in Powell's
book, “Breaking Cardinal Rules:
Basketball and the Escort Queen.”
The NCAA had said it in an earlier
response to the school that Pitino
didn't seem to want to know what his
assistant was doing.
Postel repeated his support of Pitino
on Thursday.
“This ruling is also unfair to Coach
Pitino,” Postel said, “who we believe
could not have known about the illicit
activities.”
The NCAA, once again, disagreed.
“He essentially placed a peer of
the student-athletes in a position
of authority over them and visiting
prospects and assumed that all would
behave appropriately in an environ-
ment that was, for all practical purpos-
es, a basketball dormitory,” the report
stated.
“Further, he delegated responsibility
for monitoring the former operations
director to his assistant coaches, who
later stated they were unaware it was
their job.”
There are references throughout the
report to similar cases involving a
lack of appropriate coaching oversight
at other big-name schools—Miami,
Syracuse and Indiana among them.
Boeheim, the veteran Syracuse coach,
SMU's then-coach Brown, were each
suspended for failing to keep track of
how their players were receiving aca-
demic help.
McGee did not cooperate with the
NCAA investigation, a fact Postel
emphasized in his statement.
“The person responsible for these
activities, Andre McGee, long ago
left the university, and he has yet to
cooperate with investigating officials.
We are disappointed that he was not
cooperative,” Postel said. “In contrast,
UofL did cooperate. … We have been
open and transparent throughout this
process.”
Associated Press
style, so there might be things that he
sees that I might miss and vice versa.”
Meanwhile, Brees is pleased by the
prospect of being able to enter games
with both veteran running backs in the
game plan.
“Obviously, there is a ton of excite-
ment around the signing of Adrian
Peterson, but let's not forget that we
have Mark Ingram,” Brees said during
minicamp this week. “The combina-
tion of those two guys is what makes
us even more formidable.”
Brees led the NFL in passing last
season . At 38, he is showing no sign
of slowing down, but doesn't seem to
mind the idea that New Orleans might
be more inclined to run the ball than in
recent seasons.
Center Max Unger, who sat out mini-
camp this week while rehabilitating
from foot surgery, said that as much
as the Saints have tended to throw,
they always wanted to be proficient
at running the ball when the situation
calls for it.
“Obviously, with the guys we have
in our backfield now, that's going to
be maybe a little bit more appealing,”
Unger said.
Added right tackle Zach Strief: “It
probably makes sense to try and take
some of the burden off of Drew, to
try and keep him clean and that goes
hand in hand with running the football
effectively.”
Notes: Veteran defensive tackle Tony
McDaniel, who started 10 games for
Seattle in 2016, said he has signed to
remain with New Orleans into training
camp after participating in minicamp
this week on a tryout basis.

Opry. She’s recorded country
music CDs and often performed
with Henry Matthews and his
Country Plus band as either
backup or up front. Songs of
hers like “Higher Ground” have
proven popular, while she’s also
performed a tribute to Connie
Smith.
“She’s really talented, has a
wonderful voice and does a
really great show,” said Charlie
Evans, who is partners with J.J.
Calicott for BrightStar Theaters.
BrightStar has also started
auditions for what they’re call-
ing Texarkana Has Talent. With
one audition down, another was
scheduled for last night and a
third is scheduled for Thursday,
June 29. It’s free for the public
to attend and support their tal-
ented friends or just come out
to see local performers.
“We had a good turnout. We
had a dozen or so people who
showed up for the initial audi-
tion. We had some that were
really, really good talents,”
Evans said.
After the final elimination
round, they hope to make a
decision on which talented
Texarkanians will perform for
a Texarkana Has Talent main
show next month.
“We haven’t set a date yet
for the July show, but that’s
the direction that we’re going,”
Evans said. If people would
like to sign up for the final
audition near the end of June,
contact BrightStar through the
Texarkana Has Talent tab on
the new venue’s Website.
“One of the things that we
talked about from the very
beginning is we want to support
local talent here in Texarkana,”
said Evans, noting this is
Texarkana’s version of shows
like “The Voice” or “America’s
Got Talent.”
Evans said BrightStar has
received a lot of positive
response about Texarkana Has
Talent. About a dozen perform-
ers came to the first audition,
about half of them singers,
performing with either a back-
ing track or an instrument. A
dancing duo did an interpretive
dance, plus The Scholars played
drums for an African heritage
performance.
“We really enjoyed those
guys,” Evans said, noting
BrightStar will have outside
judges for the main Texarkana
Has Talent show. Once they
have a good, solid core of per-
formers, they’ll be ready to
stage that event.
To see the talent Texarkana
has to offer, check out BrightStar
Theaters and keep track of their
scheduled shows.
(Admission is free to see
Texarkana Has Talent audi-
tions. For the Gena Roberts
Hamilton show, tickets are $15
general admission or $10 for
seniors, students and military
personnel. More info and tickets:

from crime to slime and reading time.

Expect children to learn how
to use their reasoning skills to
figure out various capers, figur-
ing out clues and participating
in scavenger hunts. They’ll even
dig through some trash—well,
fake trash—to sift for clues.
“And seeing what you can
deduce from that,” said Velvet
Hall Cool, TMS board presi-
dent. The week will be capped
off by a mystery to solve.
School-aged children are ideal
for these camps, said Cool. The
target is ages 8 to 12, but as long
as they’re in school they can
participate, she said. “Younger
than that it’s probably going to
be a little over their heads.”
Then in July the campers
move on to making a mess,
slime-style. It’s going to be ooey
and gooey and sticky, said Cool.
“So all the messy kids are
going to really love that,”
Womack said, calling it a time
to focus on gross-ology. “All the
nasty things kids love.” They’ll
make various kinds of slime, for
one thing.
“Making it yourself is just cool
nowadays,” she said. They’ll
grow things in petri dishes and
hold scavenger hunts where
kids have to dig and get dirty.
There’s a science angle to this
camp.
“A whole week of gross stuff,”
Womack said. “I feel like that’s

love getting dirty and messy?”
Then in August, for the qui-
eter kid, it’s time to focus on
reading and creativity. “Reading
time’s not as tedious as it
sounds. We’re actually focusing
on imagination,” Womack said.
The camp will teach children
how they can use their imag-
ination to play with activities
built from the stories they read.
Mask making, a writing work-
shop and puppet making are all
possible activities.
“Each day is going to be
themed around different books,
so all the activities each day
will coordinate with the books
that we’re reading that day,”
Womack said. “Our first day is
going to be Dr. Seuss themed, so
you can only imagine the possi-
bilities that come with that.”
Children aren’t made from
cookie cutters and the museums
system wants to offer activities
that would interest a variety of
individuals, said Cool.
“We’ve had really good suc-
cess with our summer camp last
year and with our Skyscapes

Park series continues with The Purple
Hulls, who come from Kilgore, Texas.
Identical twins Katy Lou and Penny Lea
Clark make up this duo. The name origi-
nates from the purple hull pea farm where
they were raised.
“They’re a little more regionally known,
both in Texas and in Arkansas and the
whole Four States region,” Williams said.
They play similar music to the Silvey and
McWilliams family bands, but their blue-
grass is more modern, he said.
The Purple Hulls discovered an audience
for their music here near their home after
performing in Nashville, Tenn., so began
touring in their own backyard, he said.
“They’ve been well-received throughout
wherever they go,” the curator said.
The last of three Music in the Park
concerts is Aug. 19 with concert violinist
Oksana Pavilionis. Originally from Russia,
she now calls Arkansas home. She can
play the classical greats we’re familiar with
but also Arkansas fiddle music. Williams
said she performs with symphonies in
Texarkana and in Conway and Fort Smith,
Ark.
Her repertoire for the night will consists
of period pieces from the 19th century
but also modern solo violin works, said
Williams.
The Music in the Park series has been run-
ning for about the past nine years. Concerts
are held outdoors on the 1874 Courthouse
lawn, unless there’s poor weather in which
case they’re moved inside to to the court-
house proper.
“I think people enjoy it because it’s a casu-
al atmosphere where people can come out
and enjoy music in a casual way,” Williams
said. It also connects the region’s history to
music we know, another attractive aspect.
The series helps maintain awareness of
artists in our own backyard.
“We always try to promote at least one
music group in the Ark-La-Tex region,”
Williams said.
Lawn chairs are recommended. The gift
shop will be open and Williams’ Tavern
Restaurant will also be open from 11 a.m.
to 7 p.m.
The project is supported in part by the
Arkansas Arts Council.

Many times a recording ses-

writer had in mind when the
song was written. And accord-
ing to Deborah Allen, such was
the case for John Conlee’s 1983
No. 1 “I’m Only In It For The
Love.”
Allen commented, “I came
up with this lick while fool-

showed it to Rafe Van Hoy and
Kix Brooks. And we just start-
ed writing the song and before
we knew it, it was finished.
We played the song for produc-
er Bud Logan and he said he
Conlee commented, “It’s
always been a problem for me
to find uptempo songs that say
something or feel good to me,
but that song did strike me.”
John Conlee’s MCA sin-
gle “I’m Only In It For The
Love” came on the country
music charts June 25, 1983, and
made it to the top of the list on
September 10th.
The single was Conlee’s
fourth No. 1 and his second in
a row. It was his 15th charted
song and was on the charts for
20 weeks.

Dear Heloise: My husband

to take our children on family
vacations that

Right here in

to take the kids
to some of the

fun and informative, and can
broaden the mind of a child.—

RULES TO LIVE BY
Dear Heloise: I recently
graduated from college, and as
a graduation gift, my grand-
mother gave me a handwritten
letter that her father gave her
on her graduation from college.
It was written in 1955, and I have
it framed and on my wall above
my desk to remind me daily of
the words that are as true today
as they were in 1955:
These are Rules to Live By
n Work at something you

that job 10 or 20 years down

‘Rough Night’ is a wild ride with women behaving badly
By Katie Walsh
Tribune News Service
As women achieve more milestones
toward gender parity in film, steps
towards equality don’t always have to
be positive or uplifting images of wom-
anhood. Sometimes, it’s more relevant
when female characters can be just as
raunchy, drunk, morally corrupt and
beloved as their badly behaved male
counterparts. “Rough Night,” from
“Broad City” writers Lucia Aniello
and Paul W. Downs (they co-wrote
the script while Aniello directed and
Downs stars in the film), is the first
R-rated Hollywood studio film direct-
ed by a woman, about women, in
decades. It not only pushes the bound-
ary of questionable behavior, it does a
handstand on top of it, and fortunately,
they just about nail the landing.
“Rough Night” is a riff on the prem-
ise of the 1998 dark comedy “Very
Bad Things,” wherein Jeremy Piven

it is what makes me happy?—Missing
The Show In Michigan
Dear Missing The Show: Have
you ASKED your son why your
presence makes him nervous when
he performs? His answer might be
enlightening. It could be something
as simple as the fact that you are his
mother. Sometimes teens become
self-conscious simply because a
parent is present, which may be
the case with your son. That said, if
you wish to attend his performanc-
es, I think you should, IF you can
do it unobtrusively, preferably out
of his line of sight, and refrain from
giving him feedback.
Dear Abby: Life has me worn out.
I have accomplished more than I
ever thought I could (considering my
upbringing), traveled as much as I
wanted, always strived to be a good
husband and father, a good employer,
a loyal volunteer, a supportive friend
during a wild night of partying. That
film ended up fairly bleak and misog-
ynistic, and “Rough Night” has to do
much more than just flip the genders
to erase the ickiness that comes with
murdering a sex worker. Fortunately,
Aniello and Downs manage to elide
the severity of that act with some clev-
er plotting, and a whole lot of weird
and wacky elements to distract from
that.
“Broad City” is a series that thrives
on the surreal, and in “Rough Night,”
Aniello and Downs inject a lot of that
strangeness into the known generic
universe of the girls’ trip movie. The
film, which starts off a bit rocky, as the
story elements are established, only
gets better and funnier as it builds,
leaning into the craziness as the domi-
nos fall into place.

DALLAS—A top Texas elec-

County elections administra-

U.S. Department of Homeland

600 IP addresses linked to
Russian hackers.
She told The Dallas Morning

found 17 matches for hackers
who tried to gain access.

Kiwanis Club awards $21,600 to nonprofits
By Ashley Gardner
Texarkana Gazette
Kiwanis Club of Texarkana recently
awarded more than $21,600 in grants to
groups that are focused on improving
the community, especially for children.
“We give grants to things that involve
children, especially underprivileged
children. That’s kind of a priority,” said
Wendy Butler-Harmon, Kiwanis Club
president.
Grants also were given to programs
that assist people with disabilities and
veterans.
The awards varied from $334 to $3,000.
The smallest grant is going to a teacher
at Fairview Elementary in Texarkana,
Ark. The money will be used to pur-
chase bands to place on the legs of desks
so that hyperactive children can “move
their feet quietly,” Butler-Harmon said.
The largest grant is going to a camp for
diabetic children.
“Basically, it’s for kids who have dia-
betes and don’t get the opportunity to
mingle with other kids who have diabe-
tes. It teaches them more about diabe-
tes—what they can and can’t eat, what
they can and can’t do—and it gives them
a circle of friends who are like them that
they can interact with once they leave
camp,” Butler-Harmon said.
Money for the grants is raised in the
Kiwanis Club’s Pancake Day fundraiser.

Settlement reached in
Arkansas oil spill case
LITTLE ROCK—Exxon Mobil
has settled a lawsuit over a
2013 pipeline spill that dumped
tens of thousands of gallons
of crude oil into an Arkansas
neighborhood.
Attorneys representing 64
families announced the settle-
ment Thursday. They say terms
will remain confidential.
Exxon told The Associated
Press that it is committed to
paying for the cleanup, but
wouldn’t comment on the set-
tlement’s specifics.
Government attorneys have
said the rupture caused more
than $57 million in property
damage to a subdivision in
Mayflower, about 25 miles
northwest of Little Rock, and
Lake Conway.
The 2013 lawsuit said Exxon
was liable because its 70-year-
old Pegasus pipeline was
unable to handle the pressure
of flowing crude, resulting in a
rupture.
The 850-mile pipeline runs
through Arkansas, Illinois,
Missouri, and Texas. It was
closed shortly after the spill,
but a segment in Texas has
reopened.

FINANCIAL MARKETS
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—U.S. stocks fell
Thursday as technology firms and
small companies skidded. Investors
bought high-dividend stocks, which
pulled the market away from steep-
er losses.
Stocks dropped in early trading as
investors reacted to rising interest
rates in the U.S. while the Bank of
England came unexpectedly close
to raising U.K. interest rates for the
first time in 10 years. Smaller, more
domestically-oriented companies
fell as investors wondered if the
expanding special counsel inves-
tigation in Washington will affect
President Donald Trump’s proposed
agenda of cuts in taxes and regu-
lations.
Elsewhere, technology companies
continued their recent slump, while
shoe retailer Nike and toy maker
Mattel both fell. But industrial com-
panies rose on new signs U.S. man-
ufacturing has steadied, and utilities
and real estate companies did well.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index
lost 5.46 points, or 0.2 percent, to
2,432.46. It fell as much as 19 points
in the morning. The Dow Jones
industrial average dipped 14.66
points, or 0.1 percent, to 21,359.90
after it closed at a record high
Wednesday. The Nasdaq composite
dropped 29.39 points, or 0.5 percent,
to 6,165.50. The Russell 2000 index
of small-company stocks fell 7.49
points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,410.08.

Technology companies, which
have done far better than the rest
of the market this year, continued
to slide. Apple gave up 87 cents
to $144.29 and Alphabet, Google’s
parent company, sank $7.75 to
$960.18. Symantec shed 68 cents,
or 2.3 percent, to $28.41. The stocks
have been slipping since Friday and
the Nasdaq is on track for its second
consecutive weekly loss.
The Washington Post reported late
Wednesday that the special coun-
sel investigating Russian influence
in the presidential campaign is
now examining whether President
Trump tried to obstruct justice.
Allegations of obstruction arose last
month when he fired FBI Director
James Comey.
Trump has touted an agenda
aimed at getting the economy to
grow faster. That could help smaller
companies because they are more
domestically focused and thus more
dependent on economic growth.
Those stocks made dramatic gains
after Trump was elected.
Benchmark U.S. crude fell another
27 cents to $44.46 a barrel in New
York. Brent crude, used to price
international oils, lost 8 cents to
$46.92 a barrel in London.
Wholesale gasoline remained at
$1.44 a gallon. Heating oil stayed at
$1.42 a gallon. Natural gas jumped
12 cents, or 4.2 percent, to $3.06 per
1,000 cubic feet.

Dems bristle as some
blame shooting on left
WASHINGTON—It didn’t
take long for the capital’s
post-shooting talk of unity to
begin fraying.
Some Republicans on the
far right are suggesting that
vitriolic rhetoric on the left
could be to blame for the
gunfire that hit a GOP leader
and others at a congressional
baseball practice. GOP Rep.
Steve King of Iowa says that
“the violence is incited by the
leading cultural voices of the
Left.”
“How dare they?” respond-
ed Democratic leader Nancy
Pelosi, citing a year of venom-
ous talk from Donald Trump—
as well as attacks on her in a
special House race in Georgia.
The back-and-forth comes
even as lawmakers of both
parties call for political rheto-
ric to be toned down.

President Donald Trump has
tried to interfere with the
investigation into whether
Russia meddled in the 2016
election and possible Trump
campaign collusion, a new
poll released Thursday
shows. Just one in five sup-
port his decision to oust
James Comey from the FBI.
Following Comey’s block-
buster appearance before
Congress, an Associated
Press-NORC Center for Public
Affairs Research poll shows
68 percent of Americans are
at least moderately con-
cerned about the possibility
that Trump or his campaign
associates had inappropriate
ties to Russia. Almost half of
Americans say they’re very
concerned. Only 3 in 10 say
they’re not that concerned.
Americans largely view
the issue along partisan
lines. Sixty-two percent of
Republicans say they’re
not very concerned or not
at all concerned about any
Russia ties. Though just
over half of Americans say
they disapprove of Trump’s
firing of Comey, the number
grows to 79 percent among
Democrats. Overall, only 22
percent of Americans support
Comey’s dismissal.
For Sandra Younger, a
50-year-old from San Diego,
Comey’s exit reinforced her
suspicion “something fishy”
was going on with the pres-
ident and Russia. She said
it was inappropriate to fire
Comey given that he was
overseeing the Russia inves-
tigation.
“If I had nothing to hide
and someone wanted to
investigate, I would say, ‘Go
ahead, do your thing, I don’t
care, because you won’t find
anything,’” said Younger,
a Democrat who imports
jewelry supplies. She added
of Trump: “He seems to be
buddy-buddy with these epic
creeps.”
President orders more
cash for job training
WASHINGTON—President
Donald Trump on Thursday
ordered more money and a
bigger role for private com-
panies in designing appren-
ticeship programs meant to
fill some of the 6 million open
jobs in the U.S.
Trump signed an exec-
utive order to roughly
double to $200 million the
taxpayer money spent on
learn-and-earn programs
under a grant system called
ApprenticeshipUSA. The
money would come from
existing job training pro-
grams. The executive order
would leave it to industry to
design apprenticeships under
broad standards to be set by
the Labor Department.
“We’re training people to
have great jobs and high
paying jobs,” Trump said at
a White House ceremony.
“We’re here today to cel-
ebrate the dignity of work
and the greatness of the
American worker.”
Trump is directing the
government to review and
streamline some 43 work-
force programs across 13
agencies. Senior administra-
tion officials have said Trump
was reluctant to spend more
federal funds on apprentice-
ships, so the boost would
come from existing money,
perhaps from the stream-
lining process. The officials
spoke Thursday on condition
of anonymity to preview
Trump’s order.
Companies have long com-
plained that they can’t find
trained people to fill highly
technical jobs, and appren-
ticeship programs have
sprung up around the coun-
try. Companies now have
to register with the Labor
Department and adhere to
specific government guide-
lines.

‘Quiet diplomacy’ led to Warmbier’s release
By Josh Lederman
and Matthew Pennington
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—It took months of
"quiet diplomacy," a change in U.S.
presidents and an American diplomat's
extraordinary, secret visit to Pyongyang
to bring Otto Warmbier home.
U.S. special envoy Joseph Yun was
a household name to almost no one
before Warmbier's return to Ohio on
Tuesday, yet he joins an exceedingly
short list of U.S. officials to set foot in
furtive North Korea in recent years.
The last such visit is believed to have
been in November 2014, when former
National Intelligence Director James
Clapper brought home two other jailed
Americans.
New details that emerged Thursday
about Yun's brief visit to the North
Korean capital illustrate the deep level
of estrangement between the U.S. and
North Korea, two countries that don't
have diplomatic relations and have
technically been in a state of war for
more than half a century, despite the
armistice that ended the Korean War.
When Yun finally laid eyes on the
comatose Warmbier in a North Korean
hospital, it was the first time the U.S.
could verify his condition in person
since his sentencing more than a year
earlier, the State Department said.
For Yun, a longtime Asia hand who
joined the foreign service in 1985, the
UNITED STATES | LEGISLATION
Senate signs off on comprehensive
sanctions bill targeting Iran, Russia
By Richard Lardner
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—A frequently polarized
Senate found common ground Thursday as
Republicans and Democrats joined forces to
approve a sweeping sanctions bill that pun-
ishes longtime adversaries Iran and Russia,
putting Congress on a possible collision
course with President Donald Trump.
The bipartisan legislation passed over-
whelmingly Thursday, 98-2, more than five
months after U.S. intelligence agencies
determined Moscow had deliberately inter-
fered in the 2016 presidential campaign.
Lawmakers have long sought to hit Iran with
more sanctions in order to check its ballistic
missile program and rebuke Tehran's contin-
ued support for terrorist groups.
The decisive bipartisan vote could put the
Trump administration in a bind. Secretary
of State Rex Tillerson has offered only tepid
support for the Russia sanctions package.
Yet those penalties are melded with the Iran
punishments. So the White House would
have to reject stricter punishments against
Iran, which it favors, in order to derail the
Russia penalties.
BUSINESS | DOWNSIZING
Nike to cut jobs, sneaker styles
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Nike wants to be more nimble on its feet.
The sneaker maker said Thursday that it plans to focus on
the hottest-selling sneakers, slash the number of styles it offers
and sell more shoes directly to customers online as part of
a restructuring in
which it also will
cut about 1,400 jobs.
Nike said the
moves will help it
offer products to
customers faster as
it is facing increas-
ing competition
from smaller brands
and premium labels.
Another problem:
The running and
basketball shoes Nike is famous for may be outdated.
More people are choosing fashion over function, with sales
of classic sneakers industry-wide climbing 26 percent last year,
according to research from The NPD Group. Meanwhile, sales
of running performance sneakers were flat and sales of bas-
ketball performance sneakers dropped, according to the same
report.
"Nike missed the fashion shift away from performance bas-
ketball to retro," said Matt Powell, the sports industry analyst
at NPD. "They still have not caught up."
