We’ll never know because despite a photo array and screaming headlines in the next day’s paper, Ali played it off as part of the show, falling down in dramatic fashion several more times in a matter of minutes Flash forward some two decades In June 1997, I’m in Chicago, walking down my street I shook his hand and immediately felt like a little boy again I managed to blurt out “You’ve been my hero my whole life, and I’m from Louisville…” when I see a wedding party taking pictures on a patio just off the street The man in the morning coat is the Champ himself, Muhammad Ali His daughter, Rasheda, was getting married, with her twin, Jamillah, as her maid of honor For a few precious minutes, I was the only one watching By the time I came to my senses and ran the block and a half to my apartment to grab my camera and come back, a crowd had gathered on this small section of Dearborn Street I still was able to go up to the wrought iron fence and shoot some photos Between wedding photos, Ali would leave the group and come over Cars were stopped in the middle of the street and fans were crowding the sidewalk as they recognized the man in the formal wear, shadowboxing and clowning around “Ain’t he ugly?” Ali joked in a barely audible rasp while boxing with a man in a morning coat After screwing up my courage, I shook his hand and immediately felt like a little boy again I managed to blurt out “You’ve been my hero my whole life, and I’m from Louisville …” The Champ whose Parkinson’s made him nearly silent by choice, didn’t respond verbally But I saw his eyes light up A minute later, a member of the wedding party, smiling behind his shades, said: “So you and the Champ are homeboys, huh?” “I guess we are,” I said proudly A year or so later, as an editor for USA TODAY in the Washington, D.C., area, I was invited to a book-signing event for Powerful Prayers, a collection of Larry King’s conversations on faith with celebrities including Ali I had brought along photos from the wedding in case I got to meet the Champ again I introduced myself to his wife, Lonnie, who accepted my photos “to give to the girls.” She also brought her husband over to see me I don’t recall that we had a conversation, but he looked at a photo I took of him and signed “Muhammad Ali” in block letters at the bottom Now, Ali, who died Friday at 74, is forever silent But he will always be The Greatest And we will always be homeboys from Louisville Jim Cheng is a copy editor at the Gannett Design Studio in Louisville Women get edge in trustworthiness v CONTINUED FROM 1A case for men,” says Adrienne Kimmell, executive director of the non-partisan institute Voters view Clinton and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump unfavorably by record levels — 54% for her and 61% for him in the latest USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll — but the study indicates that she is more likely to lose votes as a result than he is In a study at Macalester College in St Paul this year, an analysis of media coverage of Clinton, Democratic rival Bernie Sanders and Republican Ted Cruz came to a similar conclusion “Although Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy To reach us, contact Standards Editor Brent Jones at 800-8727073 or e-mail accuracy@usatoday.com Please indicate whether you’re responding to content online or in the newspaper SUBSCRIPTIONS 1-800-USA-0001 Monday – Friday a.m – p.m ET 7950 Jones Branch Dr., McLean, Va 22108, 703-854-3400 Published by Gannett, Volume 34, No 187 (ISSN0734-7456) Regular U.S subscription rates: $25 per month;

just 3% said men were better But studies show that women pay a higher price than men when they aren’t seen as honest, and have a harder time regaining trust if they lose it That’s true in fields other than politics A not-yet-published study by Wharton professor Mary-Hunter McDonnell and others into disciplinary punishments imposed by the American Bar Association, first reported by NPR, found that female lawyers were twice as likely as male lawyers to be disbarred when accused of virtually identical infractions For Clinton, perceptions that she can’t be trusted, stoked by ongoing investigations into her exclusive use of a private email server when she was secretary of State, are seen as one of her biggest liabilities in the campaign Nearly two-thirds of likely voters in a CBS News/New York Times poll last month said Clinton wasn’t honest or trustworthy — though those are the same dismal ratings Trump received Now Trump routinely derides Clinton as “Crooked Hillary.” “When women are pushed off of or fall off their honesty-andethical pedestal, it is very, very hard for them to climb back up, and that isn’t the case for men,” Kimmell says Male candidates face lower expectations they will be honest, and voters are quicker to forgive them when they aren’t “You know that former governor of South Carolina who’s now a member of Congress?” she asks, a reference to Mark Sanford While governor, he was censured by the South Carolina General Assembly for personal misbehavior, then won a House election JUSTIN SULLIVAN, GETTY IMAGES Supporters cheer candidate Hillary Clinton during a Saturday rally in Fresno, Calif four years later “If ‘he’ were a ‘she,’ that couldn’t happen.” ‘A SEA CHANGE’ To be sure, some barriers for female candidates have been lowered In a 2013 book He Runs, She Runs, Dartmouth professor Deborah Jordan Brooks argues that gender stereotypes don’t hurt female candidates, especially as more women seek and win office “When I started out in 1972, it was practically impossible,” recalls California Sen Barbara Boxer, retiring this year after four terms in the Senate and five in the House “I lost a local county supervisor race because people “It’s the ultimate treehouse with a ‘no-girlsallowed’ sign posted on it.” Patricia Schroeder, former Colorado congresswoman, on Hillary Clinton’s run for the White House wrote that I was abandoning my children.” Her memoir, The Art of Tough, was published last week by Hachette “There’s been a sea change,” Boxer said “But are there still challenges; are there still prejudices? Absolutely.” In an interview with USA TODAY two years ago about her memoir, Hard Choices, Clinton predicted that a woman running for president in 2016 would encounter a friendlier landscape than she did in her 2008 bid “It feels different,” she said “It feels like our country, our society — we’ve gone through a learning process.” While there would be “vestiges” of sexism, “I believe it would not be as reflexive It would not be as acceptable.” Clinton starts out having surmounted some of the hurdles female candidates typically encounter “She’s not your typical woman candidate in the sense that the No thing most women have to running for executive office is prove that they’re qualified, prove that they’re competent, and that is not something that Hillary Clinton has had to do,” says Democratic pollster Celinda Lake, who has studied gender politics Clinton’s four-year tenure heading the State Department also has an impact, she says “Traditionally women have more credibility on domestic issues than foreign policy, and of course she is perceived to be extremely experienced on foreign policy.” Still, Clinton faces the same dilemma as other female candidates in trying to come across as decisive and impassioned without being accused of being shrill Debbie Walsh, director for the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University, says commentary on Clinton’s demeanor on cable news shows and Twitter proves the persistence of bias “I mean, the conversation about ‘why don’t you smile’ and ‘why are you yelling at me?’ ” she says “The campaign is filled on both sides with men doing a lot of yelling, and that doesn’t seem to get called out in the same way.” After Trump accused Clinton of playing “the woman card,” he was asked on MSNBC’s Morning Joe to address her response to “deal me in” when it comes to issues such as equal pay and paid family leave He countered by discussing not what she said but how she said it “I haven’t quite recovered from her shouting that message,” Trump replied Lake once did an experiment with a pair of radio ads that contained the same content but had a male voice on one version and a female voice on another While the decibel levels were identical, listeners rated the woman’s voice as being significantly louder “A man is assertive where a woman is aggressive,” Boxer says with an edge of sarcasm STILL, SOME RESERVATIONS Some voters continue to express doubts about a woman as president In a recent NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, one in five of those surveyed said they were “very uncomfortable” or had “some reservations” about Clinton as the first female president (Trump faces challenges as well: in 10 said they were “very uncomfortable” or had “some reservations” about him serving as president without having had experience in the government or serving in the military.) In the survey, nearly one in five said they were “comfortable” with a woman as president, and more than in said they were “enthusiastic” about it At a rally Friday, Clinton reprised language she used eight years earlier, when she concededto Barack Obama “Starting next Tuesday,” she said, “we’re on our way to breaking the highest and hardest glass ceiling.” USA TODAY MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 NEWS 3A E2 BRUSH FIRE ROUSTS THOUSANDS FROM HOMES MICHAEL OWEN BAKER, AFP/GETTY IMAGES Ventura County firefighters examine burned hillsides in Calabasas, Calif., on Sunday About 5,000 people were evacuated and local roads were closed Vehicle accident sparks blaze that has burned more than 500 acres, damaged houses Wendy Leung Ventura County (Calif.)

The first thing Ralph Ticcioni noticed was the faces of the paratroopers Sitting in two rows on the floor of the C-47, the men clad in World War II replica uniforms looked up at Ticcioni, an original paratrooper Seventy-two years ago Ticcioni had looked at the soldiers sitting across from him, who all wore on their shoulders the double-A, red-and-blue patch of the 82nd Airborne, as they flew across the English Channel on a C-47 on the journey to Normandy Their eyes betrayed their anxiety as flak exploded around them, fear of the unknown etched on their faces Not so this weekend in the same skies over Ste Mère-Église as members of the Round Canopy Parachute Team jumped out of two C-47s painted in the D-Day invasion markings to re-create, in a small way, the June 6, 1944, assault on Normandy “Looking at the expressions on their faces, they’re so calm,” said Ticcioni, who was invited to fly with the team and watch them jump Sitting on the floor next to Ticcioni’s seat, Peder Ek smiled and looked up at the D-Day veteran.“I can’t even tell you how excited I am to meet you,” said Ek, a Swede “It’s an honor.” There was something Ek wanted to know — “you must have been terrified?” Ticcioni nodded Yes, he was The 93-year-old New Berlin, Wis., man survived the war, though some of his buddies died in combat and others were wounded He didn’t return to France until last week, when the citizens of Ste Mère-Église, the village near where Ticcioni landed as part of the D-Day invasion, arranged for him to come and participate in a week-long commemoration He has been

invasion “If the Germans had succeeded I wouldn’t be here today They would have burned down the town, which they did in other places And my father being the mayor would have been the first to die.” On Sunday, Ticcioni received the French Legion of Honor medal in a solemn ceremony along with two other recipients — Gen Dwight Eisenhower’s granddaughter Susan and four-star Gen John Nicholson Ticcioni didn’t know he was receiving the prestigious honor until his name was called “I’m overwhelmed Completely surprised I had no idea,” Ticcioni said Ticcioni is a humble man who speaks quietly about his World War II experiences He recounted what it was like to stand up in a plane while loaded down with gear, checking the static line of the man in front of him while the man behind him checked his Then seeing the light inside the C-47 change to green and stepping into the void as the static line yanked open his parachute Ticcioni watched the World War II re-enactors in the C-47 the same thing,

JUNE 6, 2016 Obama Congress faces tests, ticking clock are piling up, set to hit Bills time is running out, and election looms the trail in a big way Donovan Slack @donovanslack USA TODAY David Jackson @djusatoday USA TODAY WASHINGTON An already unusual election is developing another unique feature: an outgoing president who is busy on the campaign trail Little more than seven months before the end of his administration, President Obama is poised to become the most active lame duck campaigner in history, offering a new twist on an often awkward role: a White House occupant watching the election of a successor “They usually wait to pretty much close to the end, when it really starts to heat up,” said Stephen Hess, a former aide to presidents Dwight Eisenhower and Richard Nixon “This man is in it very early, which means he will be in it very long.” Obama has served notice he is willing to work hard to elect a Democratic successor — most likely Hillary Clinton — and defend his own legacy, currently under assault by Republican nominee-in-waiting Donald Trump Trump’s attacks may well inspire toward “a record-breaking amount of intensity, energy and time invested on the campaign trail.” said historian Gil Troy In the past, lame duck presidents have been inhibited from campaigning too much, either because of low approval ratings or friction with their party’s nominees Obama has already made his presence felt, frequently criticizing Trump as temperamentally unfit for the presidency Trump, meanwhile, says that if Obama campaigns again, he is only too happy to return the favor: “Once they attack, then we’re allowed.” WASHINGTON Congress returns from its Memorial Day recess this week to a crucial test of its leadership Republican leaders in both chambers have set a goal of passing government spending bills individually and on time for the first time since 1994 to demonstrate that they can make Congress work But Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and House Speaker Paul Ryan, RWis., face many obstacles and have precious little time to that with only roughly 40 days left in session between now and Sept 30, when the current funding for the government runs out And tied up in the spending battle is emergency funding to fight the mosquito-borne Zika virus as temperatures rise and mosquito populations flourish “The enemy of this Congress is the calendar,” said Jim Dyer, who worked as an aide in the George H.W Bush and Reagan White Houses and for the House Appropriations Committee for 10 years “And if you take the calendar, and then you add to it the election — where every movement and every decision has electoral implications — and then you add into that toxic mix the notion that some of these people may or may not like each other and you get an institution that’s really kind of limping along.” So far, only one of the 12 spending measures has passed both chambers, legislation funding military construction and veterans affairs programs But the Senate and House passed different versions of that bill Right now, the versions are far apart on Zika, with the Senate passing $1.1 billion for the effort and the House approving only $622 million and redirecting money for it from other programs Other bills pose problems In an unexpected implosion L JIM LO SCALZO, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY Lawmakers on Capitol Hill have only 40

killed in Afghanistan Afghan translator also died in attack Daniel Bethencourt Detroit Free Press DETROIT David P Gilkey, a former Detroit Free Press photographer and video editor who built a career out of finding the human side in dire conflicts, was killed while on assignment for NPR in Afghanistan on Sunday, NPR news reported Gilkey was traveling with an Afghan army unit when the convoy came under fire and his vehicle was struck, NPR spokeswoman Isabel Lara said in a statement An Afghan translator, Zabihullah Tamanna, also was killed Two other NPR journalists traveling with them were unharmed “I cannot think of a better person to face danger with than Gilkey,” said former Free Press reporter Joe Swickard, who traveled to Fallujah, Iraq, with Gilkey in 2006 “He was at home on a battlefield under fire, in military situations He kept his cool, and never lost his artist’s eye.” During his 11 years at the Free Press, Gilkey became the “driving force” behind a video series that won the newspaper its first Emmy: Michigan Marines: Band of Brothers, Swickard said As a key part of that series Gilkey and Swickard followed the largest unit of Marines from Michigan and chronicled their daily lives in Fallujah The project covered the soldiers’ daily routines, their cooking, living conditions, their patrols and combat and their funerals Gilkey stood out for his ability to bond with his subjects That assignment was not without its own intense perils While following the Marines on patrol, Swickard remembers sitting one humvee behind Gilkey when a rocket lifted Gilkey’s humvee into the air, as it burst into flames Yet Gilkey emerged, “cleared his head and started shooting video,” Swickard said “His dedication to getting the story was extraordinary.” In his work for NPR, Gilkey traveled to conflicts across the world, including numerous trips to Iraq and Afghanistan His work has been recognized with numerous awards, including the prestigious George Polk Award The White House Photographers Association named Gilkey Still Photographer of the Year in 2011 Contributing: The Associated Press MICHAEL M PHILLIPS, AP David Gilkey, a veteran news photographer and video editor

arrived late at the thea- ter in downtown Los Angeles to see the rematch fight between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston The crowd in the big theater was pushy Finally, we got a seat as the fight was just starting I took off my coat, and as I turned to put it on my seat, I heard the crowd roar I looked around just in time to see Liston being counted out There were those who felt Liston threw the fight The thought that stuck with me was that I had just seen a true champion The years that followed proved it to be true Out of all of his fights, he proved his character the most in his battle with

even Hillary Clinton turned against an Asian trade agreement that she championed while secretary of State Given the evidence that trade stimulates innovation, lowers prices and offers consumers more choice, this has been a big disappointment It has infected both parties and comes off as a highly cynical ploy to win over voters by playing with their emotions However, supporters of responsible trade need to understand why the electorate has turned so sour and find ways to help those left behind by globalization The data show the problem: Manufacturing employment has fallen by nearly million, or about 28%, in the past two decades Meanwhile, the recovery from the Great Recession remains modest, evidenced by the creation of just 38,000 jobs in May But halting pending trade deals, or even repealing existing ones, is not the answer The U.S does not have any commerce agreements with China or Japan And yet those nations consistently maintain the largest trade surpluses with America

through the snow on the screen at the fight unfolding before us For my dad, who left home at age 18 in 1942 and joined the Navy while war raged in both Europe and the Pacific, the boxer on the screen was nothing but a loud-mouthed draft dodger It didn’t matter to him that the boxer possessed lightning in his hands and thunder in his fists, or that he danced around the ring like Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire He was someone Dad rooted against, no matter who the man was fighting — be it Joe Frazier or Alfredo Evangelista I’d puff with pride when the ring announcer would say something like, “Introducing, from Louisville, Ky., he’s wearing red trunks, he weighs 215 here is Muhammad Ali.” It was a generational thing The old man would cheer when the other boxer landed a blow I’d let out a hoot when Muhammad Ali left his opponent flat on his back or staggering against the ropes ‘STRIKE CITY’ For me, Ali was the personification of hope at a time when Louisville needed just that A public relations or advertising guru in town had dubbed it “The City of the Seventies” in a bank’s marketing campaign, but it was anything but that Downtown was ailing as folks had moved to the suburbs, leaving once stately buildings to decay, be torn down and eventually be replaced by parking lots Working-class neighborhoods near downtown had been demolished and filled with bleak government-owned apartment complexes Fourth Street, long the city’s shopping and entertainment hub, was a ghost town Louisville was gaining its reputation as “strike city” because of frequent work stoppages at Ford, General Electric and other manufacturing companies around town The city was being torn apart by riots and protests over a federal judge’s order to integrate the Jefferson County Public Schools, which along with the old Louisville Board of Education had for years adopted an unofficial policy of “separate but equal.” There wasn’t much to be proud of in those days in Louisville Although Ali had long moved his base of operations from Columbia Gym — where Joe Martin PETER ACKERMAN, ASBURY PARK (N.J.) PRESS Bricklaying apprentice in Bordentown, N.J., in 2014 ners — Canada, Mexico and South Korea — have trade agreements with the United States What’s more, there is strong evidence that technology is the main reason for the decline in manufacturing employment Manufacturing output has continued to rise thanks to more automated workplaces and a focus on higher-tech products The only real solution to the decline is to train young people in areas with a more promising outlook, and to retrain workers who’ve lost jobs or fear they might The good news is that, after years of trial and error, government leaders are beginning to get a sense of what works and what doesn’t To that end, President Obama signed a bipartisan law two years ago to eliminate notoriously overlapping or unproductive training programs and give states more freedom to spend jobs money as they see fit Virtually everyone agrees that what works are apprenticeships and similar programs that bring employers into the process early and have workers much of their learning on the job Some successful programs, like one in Wisconsin known as WTRP/Big Step, focus on glaziers, electricians, cement masons and other traditional blue-collar trades Others are branching into health care and other areas not generally thought of as landing spots for people without a college education Two large European insurance companies — Aon and the Zurich Insurance Group — have apprenticeships for people as claims adjusters and other positions in their industry We ought to double down on approaches like these, instead of erecting trade barriers that would terrible harm to the economy or making futile efforts to limit technological advance Candidates for high office should be candid about this And they should get behind programs that might actually some good ALI INSPIRED HOPE, PRIDE My father considered him a loud-mouthed draft dodger It was our first real disagreement DAVID GOLDMAN, AP A historical marker in Louisville stands outside Muhammad Ali’s childhood home, where visitors have been paying respect taught him to punch and jab, and bob and weave — and taken up residence in rural Pennsylvania or Michigan or Cherry Hill, N.J., Ali was still ours ‘LOUISVILLE LIP’ In most of his fights, Ali was introduced as being from Louisville even years after he moved away The Louisville Lip The Greatest of all Time And if you didn’t care about his politics, he was something to be proud of in a city that, at the time, seemed to have little going for it If you did care about his politics, well … He didn’t subscribe to the notion that a black man couldn’t or shouldn’t be outspoken like he was, or that a boxer should shut up and let his fists talk for him Ali wouldn’t allow the government to tell him he had to join the Army and participate in a war with which he didn’t agree He stunned the folks like my father when he explained why he wouldn’t be inducted thusly: “My conscience won’t let me go shoot my brother, or some darker people, or some poor hungry people in the mud for big powerful America And shoot them for what? They never called me nigger; they never lynched me; they didn’t put no dogs on me Shoot them for what?” He made some people uncom- fortable when he converted to Islam and gave up the name Cassius Clay, which he called his “slave name.” He rebelled and advanced civil rights Some anger like my father’s still exists toward Ali When Kentucky House Speaker Greg Stumbo suggested placing a statue of Ali in the Capitol, a number of people emailed and wrote letters opposed to the idea “Ali should NOT be in the Capitol,” one person wrote “That is a spot for statesmen — not for boxers and draft dodgers.” Ali came into my consciousness long after he took Rome and the world by storm, winning the gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Olympic Games and after his battle with the federal government over his induction into the Army He gave me my first opportunity to really disagree with my father about something — him He came for me at a time when he was in his 30s and his boxing skills were beginning to fade, when he used his guile rather than physical superiority to beat boxers much younger and stronger than he And he came at a time when the city needed a hero Joseph Gerth is political writer at The (Louisville) Courier-Journal Chris Edwards The federal government has funded job training programs for decades, but they have never worked very well Examining these programs in 2011, the Government Accountability Office found that “little is known about the effectiveness of employment and training programs.” Other studies have come to similar conclusions If we can’t show that programs work, why fund them? One of the problems is mismanagement The word “boondoggle” was coined in the 1930s to describe federal jobs programs, and a 2011 report by Sen Tom Coburn found that the word still applies When federal training funds flow to local governments and contractors, they often get wasted Coburn found “excessive duplication, a lack of demonstrable results, and outrageous examples (of ) waste, fraud, abuse and graft.” The good news is that private markets provide vast job training U.S organizations spend more than $160 billion a year on worker training and development, according to the Association for Talent Development And individuals are taking charge of their own training: Community colleges award 1.3 million degrees and certificates a year, many to students who pay their own way without federal aid Another source of training is temporary staffing firms, which employ a rotating group of 16 million people a year in offices, hospitals and industrial jobs They provide a great way to gain on-the-job experience in top companies, and they often offer in-house training as well These days, job training and education are moving online More than million students a year now take college courses online Online education has filled the need for lower-cost and flexible options in today’s dynamic economy A new development is the growth in mass open online courses Dozens of top universities, such as Harvard and MIT, have teamed with MOOC firms to provide hundreds of certificate courses on everything from computer coding to dairy farm management Federal job training programs have always been of dubious value, but in the Internet era they have become obsolete Chris Edwards is editor of DownsizingGovernment.org at the Cato Institute Holdout Ryan sells out on Trump for free Christian Schneider Citing the need for party “unity” going into the fall election, House Speaker Paul Ryan ended his holdout last week and finally endorsed Donald Trump for president Perhaps this was inevitable, but it was jarring to see the sellout executed for free During Ryan’s holdout, Trump made no progress toward the goals Ryan said he needed to see from the presumptive GOP nominee In fact, just in the 10 days before the endorsement, Trump floated discredited conspiracy theories about former Clinton adviser Vince Foster’s death and attacked the ethnicity of a judge overseeing the Trump University case Are these what pushed Ryan toward capitulation? Ryan is reminiscent of San Francisco Giants fans who cheered on Barry Bonds during his desecration of America’s pastime Normally sane fans defended Bonds simply because he wore the right color jersey Now that Trump is wearing the Republican jersey, conscious conservatives are losing their minds defending someone who is uniquely unqualified to lead the nation If there existed an organization called People Named Donald Trump, Trump wouldn’t be cognitively stable enough to serve as its president And there will be a long-term price to pay Any time Ryan details his positive conservative agenda, the podium should feature a giant asterisk — that is, House Republicans believe in the pillars of conservatism right up until the point when a puzzlingly hirsute man-baby decides to mock women, minorities and the handicapped When Ryan espouses political civility, ask him about his endorsement of America’s most prominent Obama birther We now know that no person exists who is so disgusting that he is below Republican appeasement Republicans are hoping that supporting Trump is like breaking the speed limit — if everyone does it, nobody will get busted Sure, Republicans may say their ultimate goal is to stop Hillary Clinton, but to replace her with what? A Clinton donor who opposes reforming Social Security and has publicly waxed poetic about single-payer health care? As president, Trump is just as likely to hold a news conference to sell Trump Tangy Barbecue Sauce as he is to announce a plan to rein in government And exactly what was the purpose of Ryan’s several-week nonendorsement period? It wasn’t even long enough to earn him credit in the footnotes of future history books He’ll earn plaudits for delaying his Trump endorsement in the same way an arsonist will get credit for waiting three weeks to burn down a library out of respect for the Dewey Decimal System In 1984, George Orwell writes that in his dystopia, “Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters inside your skull.” Trump is now the proud owner of the Republican Party’s great minds Let’s just hope he kept the receipt so he can return them to their rightful owners after his November decimation Christian Schneider is a columnist and blogger for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "USA TODAY hopes to serve as a forum for better understanding and unity to help make the USA truly one nation."

After a dud of a May jobs report that Wall Street says likely rules out an interest rate hike later this month from the Federal Reserve, traders start the week once again trying to figure out the Fed’s next move on interest rates and wondering if the U.S economy has enough energy to bust out of its recent soft patch Blame what Wall Street pros say was a “disastrous,” “miserable” and “dismal” new job count of just 38,000 last month for changing investors’ calculus on the timing of the next rate hike and putting them squarely back in data-watch mode The Fed said earlier this month that it would consider hiking rates in coming months if data on jobs and the broader economy kept coming in strong The May jobs report — the weakest since September 2010 — did not meet that criteria So where does Wall Street go from here? First up, investors will be closely following a well-timed speech Monday from Fed chair Janet Yellen They will want to know if Yellen thinks the weak May jobs report was a one-off — a soft patch, a stumble, an aberration — or whether it portends the start of a weaker period for both job creation and economic growth?

And is this the new baseline for a labor market that’s been a pillar of the economy? The short answer: Job growth is expected to slow somewhat now that the economy is approaching full employment, but gains the past two months have been suppressed by myriad temporary factors, from odd weather patterns to Donald Trump “The trend of job growth has downshifted,” says Stuart Hoffman, chief economist of PNC Financial Services Group But Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics,

extension, most state and city labor laws They must be paid at least federal and state minimum wage and receive overtime pay of 1.5 times their regular hourly rate when they work more than 40 hours in a week uExempt employees are not entitled to overtime pay but must meet certain criteria for pay and job responsibilities Rhonda Abrams @RhondaAbrams Special for USA TODAY Beginning in December, about 4.2 million more Americans will qualify for overtime pay under new rules from the Department of Labor If you own a small business and have full-time employees, there’s a good chance these rules will apply to you Hourly workers, lower-wage earners and non-managerial workers now must be paid 1.5 times their hourly wage when they work more than 40 hours in a week Under the new rules, overtime will be paid to many more workers, including those on salary In a nutshell, here’s what the new rules do: uIncrease the minimum salary threshold at which a full-time salaried worker can be exempt from overtime rules from $23,660 to $47,476 annually, or from $455 to $913 weekly uThis level will be adjusted every three years uEmployers can include nondiscretionary bonuses and commissions to comprise up to 10% of the salary level SMALL BUSINESS HOW IT ALL STARTED In the 1930s, in the midst of the Great Depression, workers were often badly mistreated To help protect workers, the Fair Labor and

uFunky weather High winter temperatures led employers to hire more workers early this year, especially in construction, retail and hotels, Zandi says So they needed to hire less in April and May uMarket turbulence Financial markets have bounced back after stocks sold off and corporate borrowing costs spiked in January and February, but it takes time for firms to respond by reining in hiring and investment, Zandi says Some big banks have brought on fewer workers because the market plunge doused mergers and initial public offerings, says Jeanne Branthover, of executive recruiting firm DHR International “If they don’t have as many deals, they don’t need as many people,” she says uPolitical uncertainty Many businesses grow hesitant to hire because of the uncertainty generated by a presidential election But Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, has intensified the paralysis, says Bernard Baumohl, of The Economic Outlook Group Trump has called for imposing tariffs on China and lowering taxes, fomenting CEO fears of trade wars and bigger budget deficits, Baumohl says Branthover says some financial service firms are conserving their 2016 hiring budgets and plan to add workers at year-end after the election clarifies the landscape uWeak economy The labor market may finally be feeling the impact of a weak economy the past two quarters, says economist Scott Anderson of Bank of the West The good news: The economy is expected to rebound in the current quarter HOW TO RESPOND TO THE NEW RULES GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO If you employ salaried, full-time workers who are paid less than $913 per week, you’ll need to decide how to respond to these new rules Some options: Keep salaries the same, but eliminate or reduce overtime Monitor activity and hours to limit overtime Raise salaries to the new minimum, enabling you to require unpaid overtime of qualified employees Keep salaries the same, and pay overtime This is financially beneficial if overtime is limited or irregular and current pay is at the low end of the present minimum Be careful tracking employees’ hours GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO Lower wages, but pay Rules start in December overtime This results in your expenses staying the same, but will certainly create disgruntled employees and high turnover Hire more employees If you regularly need a lot of overtime from current employees, you may want to

purpose of the Fair Labor and Standardsd Act is to protect workers from being exploited, but businesses need flexibility, so FLSA exempts bona fide salaried executive, administrative and professional

hundreds of thousands of dollars a year Once a business has an employee, it’s critically important to know whether that worker is ex- WHAT DROVE THE CHANGE In 1975, the Fair Labor and Standards Act’s overtime provisions protected 62% of all full-time workers; today, overtime provisions protect only 8% of full-time workers The minimum exempt salary threshold was last changed in 2004, when rules regarding executive and managerial jobs were loosened, resulting in many more employees being legally considered exempt Some businesses took advantage of these new rules, resulting in some employees being named “supervisors,” especially in fast food and retail jobs, where they regularly work more than 40 hours a week without additional pay On the other hand, many may question the new minimum threshold After all, a white-collar supervisory or administrative job paying $20 an hour, or about $41,600, may be considered a good job in many parts of the country Often, employers and employees alike would view having employees working some overtime to complete tasks or to respond to email as fair, not requiring overtime pay Among Rhonda Abrams’ recent books is the sixth edition of

had given them the goahead to take back control, hence they forcibly ejected the remaining girlfriend/caregiver, Manuela Herzer In court, she argued that he could not take control from her because he lacked the capacity to so His lieutenants and family might have reasonably argued that he did not have the capacity to give control to Herzer in the first place (along with the $70 million he also reportedly gave her) But, alas, they couldn’t make that argument, because they had been running his companies under the premise that he was yet in control To refute that now meant they’d have been lying to shareholders (shareholders might not have been able to equitably vote their shares, but they have the right to know who was actually voting the voting shares), inviting suits and SEC investigations In court, his lieutenants and family, showing a videotape with a monosyllabic Redstone sputtering obscenities and unable to remember his given name (Rothstein), managed to avoid a finding of incompetence (but not an affirmative finding of competency) On that thin basis, Redstone’s daughter, Shari, who has spent much of her adulthood estranged from her father, recently used her father’s theoretical control — and what one of his doctors has characterized as a “legal mental capacity” — to remove Viacom CEO Philippe Dauman and one of his allies from the trust that, up until then, Dauman controlled He would have legitimately assumed Redstone’s control after his death (In theory, Dauman, if he had acted first in Redstone’s name, might have been able to remove Shari Redstone from the trust) Dauman has been joined in his suit by one of Redstone’s granddaughters, a direct beneficiary of the trust He now argues that, contrary to his recent position with regard to Herzer, that Redstone, held incommunicado, is being unlawfully manipulated by his daughter, who will now be able to run the empire, even though her father has repeatedly cast her out — and even though

AFP/GETTY IMAGES Viacom CEO Philippe Dauman claims Sumner Redstone is being manipulated Voting control by a minority shareholder is generally thought to have started, or at least become respectable, when The New York Times went public in the 1960s The idea here was that the longtime owners of the paper, the Sulzberger family, would remain as the institution’s stewards, with their vote sheltering it from short-term Wall Street demands This structure was adopted by many other newspaper companies, including The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post Then it was adopted by the mogul class, interested less in editorial protections then efficient power, giving Rupert Murdoch and Redstone absolute control over vast companies with a small percentage of the stock Now dual shares have became a favorite structure for tech companies, among them Google and Facebook Mark Zuckerberg might one day be Sumner Redstone While control in such companies can pass seamlessly — it did at The New York Times, although the company’s fortunes have surely lagged under its system of family inheritance, and another generation is now preparing to battle with itself — the far more likely result is a fraught and operatic game of thrones In the Murdoch house, for instance, four votes, each in the hands of his four adult children, without a tiebreaking mechanism, will determine, or be unable to determine, who controls the less than 20% stake in the Murdoch companies that controls 100% As the age of moguls ends — moguls who, by a fluke of personality and circumstance, were able to use other people’s money to create vast empires over which they had personal control — many of their relatives and cronies will, as they always have, anything it takes to hold on to that unique and happenstance

first lady Michelle Obama on the death of Ali When Muhammad Ali died at 74 on Friday, the once-strident, generation-defining voice of defiance that seemed cruelly muted to a barely audible whisper by Parkinson’s disease was silenced forever Or was it? Won’t America always hear Ali’s words — the rhyme and the reason — ringing in its collective consciousness? For more than a half-century, Ali gave a voice to millions who otherwise would have had none Death might have defeated “The Greatest” — Ali, the Muslim name he changed to from Cassius Clay, means “Praiseworthy One” — but not the principles of freedom, justice and peace for which he stood “He was such a great man (that) boxing should be the last thing you want to remember about him,” former heavyweight champion George Foreman, who lost to Ali in the famed “Rumble in the Jungle” in 1974, told USA TODAY Sports “The rest of us were just boxers This man brought something (far greater) I

Sunday, there was concern internally about the notion of overconfidence and how it threatened to haunt them Game on Thursday had been so easy, so effortless when compared to their Western Conference finals battle against the Oklahoma City Thunder that it would only be natural to let up in the kind of way that might invite trouble from LeBron James & Co After all, Game bounce-back wins — nine in a row after trailing in a seven-game series since 2009 — were James’ calling card So much for that And, at this rate, so much for the notion of the Cavs dethroning the defending champs The Warriors’

had a good chance of playing in the 2016 NBA Finals He just didn’t know he would be with the Golden State Warriors He had spent his entire career with the Cleveland Cavaliers until they dealt him to the Portland Trail Blazers at the trade deadline The Blazers cut Varejao, who cleared waivers and signed with Golden State, and he is the first player in NBA history to play for both finalists in the same season “I never thought this would happen,” Varejao said “It’s strange … But now I’m part of the Warriors, and I’m going to whatever I can to help this team win a championship.” Before the 2011 collective bargaining agreement, Varejao could have rejoined the Cavaliers 30 days after being waived, as onetime Cavs center Zydrunas Ilgauskas did in 2010 The Cavaliers traded Ilgauskas, the Washington Wizards waived him and he went back to the Cavs But the 2011 CBA closed that loophole Now, Varejao could get a ring no matter the outcome If the Warriors win, he will get one If the Cavs win, they could elect to reward him for his contributions this season “Andy’s a big part of our organization,” Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said “He had the longest tenure there for a while, and he was a big part of what we’ve done over the last couple years, so it was hard losing Andy And everyone on our side has a great deal of respect for Andy “Just for him to get back to the Finals again with a different team is going to be different for everyone Our guys still have a great relationship with Andy, and we still respect him a lot.” Drafted by the Orlando Magic OAKLAND KYLE TERADA, USA TODAY SPORTS The Warriors’ Klay Thompson drives to the basket against the Cavaliers’ Iman Shumpert in the third quarter BOB DONNAN, USA TODAY SPORTS Anderson Varejao is the first player in NBA history to play for both NBA Finals teams in the same season in 2004, Varejao was traded to Cleveland that summer and became a fixture in the Cavs lineup He averaged 6.8 points and 6.7 rebounds per game in 2006-07, the season the Cavs lost to the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals He had his best season in 201314 at 8.4 points and 9.7 rebounds per game Injuries have slowed his career From 2010-11 through 2012-13, he didn’t play more than 31 games in a season In 2012-13, Varejao averaged 14.1 points and 14.4 rebounds through 25 games But he was diagnosed with a blood clot in his lung and needed surgery In Cleveland, he became one of LeBron James’ closest teammates When James returned to Cleveland, he wanted his friend to stick around, and Varejao signed a three-year, $30 million extension at the start of 2014-15 When the Cavs traded Varejao to acquire Channing Frye in February, James was glad to get Frye but disappointed to lose Varejao “That’s the worst part of the business when it comes to this game,” James said then The trade didn’t impact their friendship, though James was not happy when a referee called a foul on Kevin Love and James thought Varejao flopped in Game “Good things happen to good people,” James said before the start of the series “So either way he would have been part of the Finals He’s done so much in his career He’s sacrificed a lot For him to be in this position is great for him (and) for his family No matter what has happened, he would have been here anyways.” Varejao was beloved in Cleveland for his gritty, do-what-ittakes style and his long, curly hair “I’m pretty sure I still have a lot of fans in Cleveland, guys who respect what I did for the city, for the team,” he said He also anticipates another faction of fans, who might not be thrilled he joined Golden State “I know there’s going to be guys who think I’m a traitor because I came to the Warriors,” he said “It’s not that I said I wanted to be a Warrior They wanted me as well It’s part of the business, the same way that I accepted that they traded me I’m fine with that I’m here now.” Defending champs in strong position v CONTINUED FROM 1C history is even more daunting, as 244 of 261 teams that trailed 2-0 in a seven-game series have gone on to lose And to think, the Warriors barely even needed back-to-back MVP Stephen Curry to get the job done Forward Draymond Green, who did his best Curry impression (28 points, five three-pointers) while playing the tough defense for which he’s known, led the way But with Curry sitting and celebrating on the Warriors bench for much of the third quarter, Green and a motley crew that included Leandro Barbosa, Andre Iguodala, Harrison Barnes and Klay Thompson went on a 30-16 run without him that put them up 82-62 entering the fourth James (19 points, nine assists, eight rebounds) and the Cavs, who struggled again to penetrate Golden State’s superior switching defense (35.4% shooting), are clearly outmatched here Their alleged Big Three was ef- fectively neutralized, as James was mostly contained, Kyrie Irving had 10 points (on 5-for-14 shooting) and forward Kevin Love missed five of seven shots before leaving with concussionlike symptoms in the third quarter There will be clarity in the coming days as to whether Love will be able to play in Game on Wednesday, but it mattered little that he wasn’t there Sunday The Cavs defense put them in prime position early, as they led 21-19 after the first quarter despite James missing all five of his shots and going scoreless in the first quarter of a Finals game for the first time in his career Having held Curry and Thompson to a combined 20 points in Game 1, the Warriors’ dynamic duo had just five points combined to that point (2-for-7 shooting) as Golden State missed 14 of 23 shots and coughed up six turnovers to the Cavs’ one Tristan Thompson willed his way to some key early baskets, and Cleveland survived its own shooting woes (8-for-25) IN BRIEF TRUCK SERIES DRIVER HAS

2016 ENDING CTE IS WHAT MATTERS Answers from study will eclipse NFL controversy Nancy Armour narmour@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports BOSTON Something was lost in the furor over who made what phone calls when and why the NFL went back on its word The day is coming when former players won’t have to wait for an autopsy to explain the mood swings, the memory loss, the depression and, in the very worst of cases, the urge to kill themselves That breakthrough will lead to others An explanation for why some people exposed to repetitive head trauma get chronic traumatic encephalopathy and others not and a test to indicate which group someone falls into Treatments that can slow the progression of the disease that has reduced dozens of former football players — and soccer players and hockey players and members of the military — to shadows of themselves Maybe even stop CTE completely “If we succeed in our goals, then it’s a game changer,” Robert Stern, the clinical core director of Boston University’s Alzheimer’s Disease and CTE Center, said last week after announcing the start of the seven-year study the NFL is accused of trying to quash The NFL has much to answer for when it comes to the concussion crisis But if the CTE study Stern is leading delivers on its promise, the attempts to derail it will be the league’s worst failing Building on other research, the STEVEN SENNE, AP “If we succeed in our goals, then it’s a game changer,” says Robert Stern, who leads a CTE study GREG M COOPER, USA TODAY SPORTS The NFL is accused of trying to quash a study on CTE new study is intended to identify a diagnostic test for CTE A group of 240 males — half of whom played in the NFL, 60 who played in college and 60 who had no exposure to repetitive head trauma — will be put through a three-day battery of tests, including brain imaging, spinal taps and samples of blood and saliva The NFL players and the control group will be retested after three years The tests, which begin next month, will be done at four sites across the country Experts in every aspect related to repetitive head trauma are involved “I think we’re going to really learn a lot and discover a tremendous amount of information that will give us some of the answers of what is CTE in lifetime and, yes, we can diagnose it,” said Martha Shenton, director of the Psychiatry Neuroimaging Laboratory at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and another of the study’s lead researchers “The pathophysiology is anoth- er question,” Shenton added, referring to the progression of a disease “But you can’t look at the pathophysiology until you have an entity that you can identify.” The $16 million study was supposed to be funded as part of the NFL’s $30 million grant to the National Institutes of Health But the league balked at it, according to ESPN, because it is being led by Stern, a critic of the NFL who submitted an affidavit in support of the former players in the classaction lawsuit over concussions But in a sign of the study’s importance and potential impact, the NIH funded it anyway, using taxpayer dollars “I’m really just thrilled that it’s funded That’s really it,” Stern said, declining to further the fray with the NFL “Controversies are not the focus of what I’m doing I’m trying to get those answers as quickly as possible.” That, after all, is what it’s all about The damage to former players has already been done, and the time for trying to dodge the fallout is long over What matters now is finding treatment so the suffering can be lessened and, ultimately, eliminated Researchers are getting close, with the timeline already shrinking from decades to years What the NFL fails to realize is answers — transparency — only help its cause The sooner doctors can tell someone he will or won’t be at risk for CTE, the better it is for the long-term future of the NFL But that’s not possible without first being able to diagnose the disease while someone’s alive, and researchers are confident this study will allow them to that FOLLOW COLUMNIST NANCY ARMOUR @nramour for news, analysis and commentary across all sports Power (and wife) relieved to see skid end Amid tough season,

USA TODAY Sports Imagine trying to cram 500 jigsaw pieces into a 100-piece puzzle Welcome to the U.S men’s gymnastics selection committee’s nightmare The Olympic qualifying process is halfway complete, and there’s no more clarity than when it began Actually, there might be even less Sam Mikulak and Jake Dalton, penciled in for the five-man Rio team by pretty much everyone before nationals, lived up to the expectations Mikulak won his fourth consecutive U.S title Sunday, and he did so in the kind of commanding fashion that would make him an all-around contender in Brazil Dalton was third and also finished in the top three on vault, floor and still rings After that, however, very little went according to form Donnell Whittenburg, a medalist in last year’s world championships and the leader after prelims, dropped into a tie for fifth after falls on high bar and pommel horse John Orozco, a 2012 Olympian, was 10th, while reigning Olympic all-around bronze medalist Danell Levya wasn’t even among the 13 who automatically qualified for trials Leyva, who was 16th, made the HARTFORD MADDIE MEYER, GETTY IMAGES Sam Mikulak was second in parallel bars en route to winning his fourth U.S all-around title His commanding performance makes him a near-lock for the Olympic team trials as an at-large pick Meanwhile, veteran Chris Brooks, a perennial alternate, was as solid and steady as a metronome in finishing second Fellow bubble dwellers Paul Ruggeri and Marvin Kimble made strong cases for themselves, too, as did Yul Moldauer, who won the NCAA title in April as a freshman “It’s not surprising, because we know we have so much depth, but it is surprising it got so mixed up at the end,” Dalton said “But it’s great for the team, because it’s showing how strong we are.” MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Rich Dodgers can afford to be artful Willing to gamble, club eats $35 million in dumping Crawford Gabe Lacques @GabeLacques USA TODAY Sports When embattled Frank McCourt sold the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2012, the city hailed the inclusion of basANALYSIS ketball legend Magic Johnson in the new ownership group Four years later, it’s clear managing partner Mark Walter is the franchise’s true magic man His deep pockets can make bad contracts, ill-conceived gambles and impetuous decisions vanish into thin air, the latest example coming Sunday, when the Dodgers designated outfielder Carl Crawford for assignment The Dodgers still owe Crawford $35 million for the rest of this season and 2017 In essence, Crawford’s contract was the poison pill the Boston Red Sox insisted the Dodgers ingest when they sent Adrian Gonzalez, Josh Beckett and Nick Punto west in a nine-player 2012 deal that altered the course of two franchises Gonzalez was the cornerstone the Dodgers needed after years of neglect under McCourt, and he has not disappointed, producing a 809 on-base-plus-slugging percentage in four seasons But to get him, the Dodgers took on $32 million-plus owed Beckett and about $108 million due Crawford, already in a steep health and production decline in just the second year of a sevenyear $142 million deal When the Dodgers acquired Crawford, it seemed inevitable this day would come What we didn’t realize was the Dodgers’ willingness to eat salary with the volume and enthusiasm their fans inhale Dodger Dogs A front office led by Andrew Friedman and an all-star cast of lieutenants endeavors to operate efficiently and creatively, yielding enhancements such as Japanese right-hander Kenta Maeda and outfielder Trayce Thompson Yet as Friedman and Co exploit market inefficiencies on one hand, on the other the franchise does not shy away from the big bet Consider their forays into the international market, where draft position doesn’t matter and fi- nancial might — and the willingness to pay steep penalties to Major League Baseball — means the world uThey guaranteed Yasiel Puig $42 million just weeks after Walter and Co bought the team uThey guaranteed $62.5 million (almost half of it in a signing bonus) to another Cuban outfielder, Hector Olivera, in 2015 uThey signed Cuban infielder Alex Guerrero to a four-year, $28 million deal in 2013 and designated him for assignment last week uThey signed Cuban shortstop Erisbel Arruebarruena to a five-year, $25 million contract in 2014 and have twice suspended him for insubordination uThey signed Cuban righthander Yaisel Sierra to a $30 million deal, and he might ultimately profile as a reliever, not a starter As one of the richest clubs in a $10 billion industry, the Dodgers have proved there are far fewer ramifications to miss very badly on a big investment Take Olivera The power-hitting Cuban didn’t even get 100 minor league plate appearances before the Dodgers determined he was a bust So they spun him off to the Atlanta Braves three months after signing him, shrugging off $30 million sunk into a player who never made it anywhere near Chavez Ravine Puig turned out better, producing a 925 OPS in 2013 and an AllStar first half in 2014 He faded badly, however, and beset by injury has just a 248/.306/.406 slash line this year and last As he plays his way toward the margins of the roster, it’s not hard imagining, perhaps via trade, the Dodgers eat some of his salary, too Remember Andre Ethier? He got an $85 million extension two months into the Walter era but has been on the disabled list all season and, at 35, it’s hard to imagine him central to the club’s 2017 plans No matter — he’s still owed $20 million It’s possible the aforementioned players will stick around for the duration of their deals, and many of them provided meaningful returns on the investments in them Yet as the Dodgers strive to build what club President Stan Kasten often calls a long-term, sustainable baseball empire, it’s also clear there will be many more days like Sunday, when Crawford was ejected with a $35 million parachute Because of the unforgiving three-up, three-count format in team finals, picking the Rio squad is not as easy as simply taking the top five after scores from nationals and trials are combined The Olympic trials are June 23 and 25 in St Louis Teams need three big scores on each of the six events, so the selection committee will be crunching numbers to make sure the strengths and weaknesses of their five balance out It’s why only the top two after trials are guaranteed spots in Rio — but only if they’re also in the top three on at least three events It’s also why someone such as Brooks, whose best events are ones in which the Americans are strong, has been passed over before in favor of someone who can put up a big score on, say, pommel horse, a U.S weakness “I’ve thought I’ve made my case for that many times and ended up in the alternate position,” Brooks said when asked if he thinks he’s convinced the committee he needs to be on this U.S team “I need to continue proving myself as a worthy competitor.” For years, the U.S men have said they have so much depth that there were a dozen guys who could make a world or Olympic team In reality, however, it was really more like six or seven, with one spot actually up for grabs But between some of the big names struggling and the unexpected impressive performances, there are about a dozen possible scenarios, using 10 gymnasts Mikulak, the first man to win four U.S titles since Blaine Wilson won five in a row from 1996 to 2000, is the only one who could be considered a lock right now “They are not making it any easier on us,” national team coordinator Kevin Mazeika said “But that’s a good thing.” There’s a good chance trials will only make the headache worse Some who had great meets here will get flustered at the thought of an Olympic berth being so close Some who struggled will be motivated to redeem themselves Leyva, for one, fully intends to make life miserable for the committee He has a history of rallying after poor meets, including in London, where he was on the allaround podium two days after the Americans finished a disappointing fifth in the team competition “That’s a pretty big comfort,” Leyva said, his voice hard with determination “People tend to forget about that I don’t mind being the underdog.” In other words, buckle up Nothing is close to being settled FOLLOW COLUMNIST NANCY ARMOUR @nrarmour for commentary on the latest in major sports Deadline be darned Pitching market thin, so White Sox strike early with Shields Bob Nightengale bnighten@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports The Chicago White Sox knew the standard protocol was to wait six weeks, deciding what to much closer to the trade deadline But they couldn’t afford to stay patient They knew that summer might offer the worst inventory of available starting pitching at the trade deadline in decades A year ago, the likes of David Price, Johnny Cueto, Cole Hamels, Mike Leake, Scott Kazmir, Alex Wood and J.A Happ were traded in July This year, the market is so ugly that 36-year-old Rich Hill of the Oakland Athletics could be the best of the bunch Perhaps by a long shot So the White Sox feared if they waited any longer, after losing 17 of their last 23 games, they could be out of the race by the time the Aug deadline rolled around So they kick-started the market, buying low on struggling San Diego Padres starter James Shields, a move that might prove impetuous or incredibly forwardlooking The White Sox gave up two fringe prospects in pitcher Erik Johnson and shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr and are paying just $27 million of the remaining $61 million owed on Shields’ contract If Shields pitches great down the stretch and decides to opt out of his contract, the White Sox are on the hook for only $5 million, according to a person with direct knowledge of the deal He spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to publicly divulge financial details Shields, 2-7 with a 4.28 ERA this year, is no longer the ace who led the Kansas City Royals to their first pennant in 29 years in 2014 Yet he’s the only pitcher in the major leagues who has pitched at least 200 innings the last two seasons, stretching to nine his streak of 200 inningsplus seasons He’s back in the American League Central, where he went 27-17 with a 3.18 ERA over 2013 and 2014, and no longer is needed to carry a staff “He has proven he can be an JAKE ROTH, USA TODAY SPORTS James Shields was 2-7 with the Padres before Saturday’s trade elite starter in the American League historically, but that’s not necessarily what we’re asking of him,” White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said “With the way our rotation sets up for the next few years, we just need him to be a nice, stabilizing presence in the middle of it He has a very long track record of durability and performance.” Good luck finding that in this year’s emaciated trade market It’s no wonder that the New York Yankees, if they’re out of the race, might be sellers for the first time since 1989, when they traded Rickey Henderson to the Oakland Athletics and Mike Pagliarulo to the Padres Yankees starters Nathan Eovaldi and Michael Pineda, who are a year away from free agency, could be available If the Yankees are not in striking distance of first place by Aug — and at 26-30, their most compelling race might be with the Tampa Bay Rays to avoid the cellar — they will have every contender calling about their relief power trio of Aroldis Chapman, Andrew Miller and Dellin Betances You don’t think Theo Epstein and the Chicago Cubs — and almost every other contender — won’t salivate at the thought of having one of them anchor their bullpen in October? “Frankly, we felt (pitching) was going to be fairly difficult to address in the coming weeks leading up to the trade deadline,” Hahn said “Given the supply and demand out there, we felt it was an important one to move on early.” It’s little wonder the Padres, who are 23-34 this season after going 74-88 in 2015 following a trade and free agent spree, are so popular Starters Andrew Cashner and Tyson Ross — the latter trying to come back from an inflamed shoulder — and the entire San Diego bullpen are available Of course, so are high-priced outfielders Matt Kemp and Melvin Upton Jr “We haven’t been good enough the last year and a half as a group, as a team, as an organization,” Padres GM A.J Preller said “We talk about it a lot.” Those talks have always been kept private Padres executive chairman Ron Fowler went public He blasted his players, calling them “miserable failures,” on their flagship station, The Mighty 1090, three days before the Shields trade “We rolled the dice on some major league signings, major league trades,” Fowler told host Dan Sileo “We collectively have to look at that and say it didn’t come together as well as we wanted.” The Yankees, Arizona Diamondbacks, Detroit Tigers and Los Angeles Angels soon might be singing in the same choir, hoping to know by August whether they are contenders or are simply fooling themselves The White Sox jumped in first We might not have to wait long to know who’s next FOLLOW MLB COLUMNIST BOB NIGHTENGALE @BNightengale for commentary, analysis and breaking news 6C SPORTS Djokovic climbs up major ladder v CONTINUED FROM 1C What Novak has done and is doing warrants a big jaw drop from sports fans.” Djokovic dropped 14,000 jaws inside Court Philippe Chatrier, winning in four sets against world No Andy Murray It was a victory that further cemented him as the best tennis player in the world, and it reignited the discussion: Is he the best ever? Djokovic is halfway to the calendar Grand Slam — winning all four majors in the same year — after his victory at Roland Garros Courier, in 1992, was the last to win the first two majors consecutively in men’s tennis Djokovic continues to sneak up on Federer (17), Rafael Nadal (14) and Pete Sampras (14) in the major titles column His count: 12 “He is getting close to Federer and close to Nadal,” said one of his coaches, Marian Vajda “He is one of the best players (in history) This is a very, very special Grand Slam to win We’ll see what the future brings I don’t know if he can get to 17, but he is at 12, so this is an important time to enjoy.” At one point in his career, Djokovic said he rued the fact that he was a part of the Federer-Nadal era Flailing and frustrated, he was left wondering if he would ever break through the ceiling that Roger and Rafa had so carefully built “I realized that in life everything happens for a reason,” Djokovic said Sunday, his trophy next to him “You’re put in this position with a purpose, a purpose to learn and grow and evolve I realized that I needed to get stronger and accept the fact that I’m competing with these two tremendous champions.” While Federer and Nadal have spent much of their careers setting records, Djokovic is busying himself with breaking them While they, Murray, Stan Wawrinka and others continue to challenge Djokovic, his destiny in tennis seems to be within his control Can he win the calendar Grand Slam? The Golden Slam (with an Olympic gold added in)? “I really think everything is achievable in life,” Djokovic said “Whether or not I can reach a calendar Slam, that’s still a possibility.” Djokovic drew a heart in the clay, thanking the Parisian fans as he laid in it It was an ode to Gustavo Kuerten, a three-time winner here Kuerten thinks Djokovic has a shot at going 4-for-4 in 2016, too “Every time you ask if he’s going to win the tournament, I say, ‘If he’s in it, he is the favorite,’ ” Kuerten said “He will be the favorite the next couple of years.” That is perhaps the most dangerous thought: As Federer (back) and Nadal (wrist) fight injuries and Murray (10-24 lifetime against Djokovic) has a difficult time solving Djokovic, the 29year-old Serbian only looks to more Courier said the calendar Slam — which Serena Williams was two matches away from completing in 2015 — becomes a discussion after Wimbledon, and of course only if Djokovic wins there And then for Djokovic? The sky is the limit “If he gets into calendar Slam position, you saw how difficult it was to close this match out trying to something he’s never done before,” Courier said “If he gets to the U.S Open, he’ll be in that position again in trying to something that he — and he’s done almost everything — has never done That hits different people different ways It hit Serena hard But he certainly has the game to get it done.” Williams lost to Garbine Muguruza in Saturday’s women’s final, falling short of tying Steffi Graf’s Open-era record of 22 Grand Slam titles As the major titles continue to pile up, Djokovic is becoming the foe that rivals don’t want to face “What he has achieved the last 12 months is phenomenal,” Murray, his voice cracking, said on court of Djokovic “Winning all four of the Grand Slams in one year is an amazing achievement.” USA TODAY MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 McGirt wins Memorial GOLF First PGA Tour title comes in 165th start Steve DiMeglio @Steve_DiMeglio USA TODAY Sports DUBLIN, OHIO A few years back William McGirt took to heart some advice from Tiger Woods Sunday he grabbed hold of his first championship hardware from Jack Nicklaus McGirt knocked in a 6-footer for par on the second playoff hole to defeat Jon Curran and win the Memorial at Muirfield Village With a bogey-free 1-under-par 71 and then two pars in the playoff, McGirt won his first PGA Tour title in his 165th start He and Curran, who shot 70 and was trying to win his first Tour title in 55 starts, ended regulation play at 15 under It was the third consecutive year a first-time winner won at Jack’s place, as McGirt joins Hideki Matsuyama (2014) and David Lingmerth (2015) in that span McGirt, who said he had played so many different mini tours throughout his years that he couldn’t recall all of them, said it was “pretty darn cool to get win No 1” on the PGA Tour JOSE MAIORANA, USA TODAY SPORTS William McGirt, left, celebrates Sunday with his caddie “It’s been year after year of practice and getting your nose bloodied and learning from it,” said McGirt, 36, who earned a three-year exemption and trips to the U.S Open, PGA Championship and 2017 Masters with his victory “I wondered for years if I’d ever get to the PGA Tour Then when I got out here I wondered if I’d ever win “I kind of had the jitters with the golf swing but felt great with the putter The putter saved me this week.” It was the second playoff loss on the Tour for Curran, who fell in the 2015 Puerto Rico Open to Alex Cejka While disappointed that he lost, he gathered more experience that will guide him going forward “It’s tough to be in a playoff,” said Curran, who was Keegan Bradley’s golf teammate in high school “It’s kind of surreal sometimes It might not be for a lot of guys, but for me it was kind of surreal for me to be here at really the biggest stage I’ve been on and to be in a playoff.” Dustin Johnson (71) finished one shot out of the playoff and in third at 14 under At 13 under were world No Rory McIlroy (68), J.B Holmes (69), Gary Woodland (73) and Matt Kuchar (73) McGirt began the day one shot out of the lead and one of 20 players within four shots of the lead He was one of six who held at least a share of the lead in the final round, which was delayed for 90 minutes by foul weather While he only made one birdie — coming on the par-5 fifth — he made two clutch par saves in the playoff, the first from a greenside bunker, the second from nasty rough to the left of the green Advice from Woods has helped McGirt When he lost the 2012 RBC Canadian Open by one shot, he admitted to Woods that he had not looked at the scoreboards during the final round Woods, in so many words, got his point across and punctuated his counsel by telling McGirt he was an idiot “After the discussion, I’ve looked every chance I’ve had,” said McGirt, who added that since he spoke with Woods he always had wanted to know where he stood when he was on the golf course The so-called Big Three — world No Jason Day, No Jordan Spieth and McIlroy — had varying degrees of success Day finished with a 74 and in a tie for 27th Spieth shot 73 and fell to a tie for 57th USA TODAY MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 SPORTS 7C Bisping goes from heel to hero E6 Middleweight wins Rockhold’s title Martin Rogers mjrogers@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports INGLEWOOD, CALIF No sooner had Michael Bisping claimed one crown Saturday night than he found himself in immediate danger of losing another For close to a decade the British middleweight has been the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s resident heel, a willing bad guy known more for his loud and boorish behavior than any real likelihood of becoming a superstar That changed Saturday when the 37-year-old suddenly became the top dog in the middleweight division with a huge upset by knocking out Luke Rockhold with a pair of power punches just after the midway point of Round in UFC 199’s main event And in that instant, he was given a firsthand example of a prin- ciple so ingrained that it should probably be etched in the Constitution — America loves a winner It doesn’t matter if he curses and boasts and acts like an (expletive), an admission Bisping was content to own up to Just win, baby, and you can what you (expletive) want The use of the expletives is an attempt to give insight into what to expect from Bisping the fighter The man from Manchester likes a swear word the way David Beckham appreciates his hairbrush — it is a necessary tool in the brand and persona Now, remarkably, Bisping is not only a champion but also, quite possibly, no longer the go-to bad guy after years of being roundly booed whenever he stalked the octagon or held a microphone That was the only thing he lost, that derision and disdain, this time seeing the crowd at The Forum swallow its jeers and show its appreciation In an instant, with the punches that crumpled Rockhold, Bisping might have morphed into a Rocky-type figure, the underdog who somehow made his dreams come true against the odds In the moments that followed his finest hour, Bisping didn’t yell for Adrian (though he did, quite sweetly, invite his family into the octagon to celebrate with him) Instead, he laughed and joked and bragged and swore and, most important, made fun of himself, calling himself an (expletive) and an (expletive) and (expletive) while enjoying the moment “I know I’m an (expletive),” he said “I can’t help it But I am just an average guy, and this is the greatest thing, apart from my family, that could ever have happened to me.” Bisping taunted Rockhold, too, unable to shed the braggadocio after all of this time, sniping that continued into the post-fight news conference more than an hour later and probably all the way to a rematch down the line But you can get away with it when you’re the champ, and The Forum chuckled along with him, enjoying the irony and respecting the journey It was the strangest of roads trodden, too, a career’s worth of struggle boiled into a mere two weeks of preparation Bisping only got his chance because Chris Weidman pulled out with a late neck injury Weidman and Rockhold were initially slated to repeat their clash from De- cember at UFC 196, which resulted in Rockhold destructively yanking away the title “This has been a lifetime’s work, and I understand why people didn’t believe in me, but I knew I could it,” Bisping said “I have been considered a bad guy over the course of my career I know I have I have acted like an idiot I know I’ve said things, and I look back and cringe at some of the things I have said in the past And I will cringe at some of the things I said tonight “Everyone wants to be liked, come on, but as a fighter we are trying to generate hype and money Whether people like you or not, the last thing you want is an indifferent clap when you walk in.” FOLLOW COLUMNIST MARTIN ROGERS @mrogersUSAT for commentary and insight on sports FOR THE RECORD NBA June All Times ET

Muhammad Ali, shown training in 1972, “He brought psychological warfare (to boxing) before anybody knew what it was.” Ali used platform to make difference around world v CONTINUED FROM 1C simple: ‘Just let me eat and sleep where I want.’ ” Ali died of medical complications related to his debilitating disease at a Scottsdale, Ariz., hospital, not far from his home in Paradise Valley, Ariz Quite simply, there has never been an athlete before, or since, who shook America by the collar and made the nation pay attention the way Ali did As Ali himself said: He was black, and he was beautiful He backed up his then-fathomable public boasting with monumental triumphs, in and out of the boxing ring “He brought psychological warfare (to boxing) before anybody knew what it was,” former lightweight champion Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini told USA TODAY Sports “He was a genius.” But it was out of the ring as an indefatigable fighter for justice and equality for all people where Ali was historically incomparable He was a forceful proponent of civil rights, black empowerment and social justice He will be remembered not so much because he was the first man to win the heavyweight crown on three occasions or for his magnetic aura but as someone who boldly sabotaged his career at its zenith He walked away from one of the most powerful positions in sports when he willingly was stripped of his heavyweight crown in 1967 for refusing military induction during the Vietnam War As Cassius Clay, which Ali called his “slave name,” he was raised a Baptist in a lower-mid- 1972 AP PHOTO Ali and ABC sportscaster Howard Cosell had a two-man act over the years that was beneficial to both of their careers dle-class neighborhood of Louisville and had limited formal education He was an enormously gifted, dedicated athlete who was encouraged to take up the sport by a Louisville policeman who operated a boxing gym Thus began an unprecedented, extraordinary journey from humble beginnings in the segregationist South to gold medalist in the light heavyweight division in the 1960 Rome Games to worldwide acclaim as a conqueror of Sonny Liston, Foreman and Joe Frazier in epic ring confrontations As Clay, he stunned the boxing world in 1964 with an upset of heavyweight champion Liston, a 7-1 favorite, in Miami Beach Subsequently, befriended by civil rights activist Malcolm X, Clay changed his name to Ali and his allegiance to the Nation of Islam Eventually, his metamorphosis prompted Ali to eschew his blackseparatist views of the turbulent 1960s and seek spiritual enlightenment by adopting the non-violent values of traditional Islam The seminal moment came April 28, 1967, when Ali steadfastly refused to step forward — on three separate occasions — for his Army induction He had asked the government to reclassify him as a conscientious objector based on his religion The Justice Department denied his request It had been his religious and social convictions that led Ali to famously conclude, “Man, I ain’t got no quarrel with them Viet Cong,” later explaining, “No Viet Cong ever called me a nigger.” Ali was arrested The World Muhammad Ali Born: Jan 17, 1942, in Louisville Died:

champion, and state commissions rescinded his license to fight He did not box for 31⁄2 years His triumphant comeback was completed Oct 26, 1970, when he bludgeoned Jerry Quarry with a third-round stoppage to reclaim the lineal title in Atlanta (Georgia had no boxing commission) For three decades, Ali courageously battled Parkinson’s disease without complaining or seeking pity Exceedingly frail with an eerie stillness in recent years, he endured muscle tremors, a wobbly gait and slurred speech, but he refused to hide his challenges from the public, instead serving as a source of inspiration His medical diagnosis was made public in 1984, but Ali began to suffer symptoms years earlier The world got a vivid glimpse into his courageous life at the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta, where Ali, with trembling hands, lit the Olympic caldron All the while, Ali was donating considerable time and effort to social causes and charitable missions throughout the world Among his efforts was the establishment of the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Research Center in Phoenix and the Muhammad Ali Center, an educational and cultural institute in Louisville The planet is now a little less humane, a little less compassionate and a lot less fun than it used to be when Muhammad Ali floated through the world like a butterfly and stung like a bee NHL Jones could be special acquisition Kevin Allen kmallen@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports SAN JOSE Whether the San Jose Sharks come back to win the Stanley Cup Final, the offseason acquisition of goalie Martin Jones has to be considered one of the top trades in their history As their appearance in the Final proves, Jones has changed this team’s outlook today — and for years to come The Sharks dialed up their determination in the 3-2 overtime win in Game 3, but Jones’ play is the primary reason this series is 2-1 and not 3-0 The Sharks are playing in their first Cup Final Before this series, I said the Pittsburgh Penguins owned so much speed and offensive might that Jones would need to post at least a 935 save percentage to beat them In Game 3, the 26-year-old stopped 40 of 42 shots for a 952 save percentage Jones has stopped 106 of 113 shots in this series for a 938 save percentage He had a 918 save percentage in the regular season Jones plays with a discreet cockiness that fuels San Jose He owns an aura of self-confidence that suggests he’s always in control With him in net, the Sharks have faith games will never get out of hand, regardless of whether they are at their best Jones has refused to allow the Penguins to build an insurmountable lead In Game 3, Pittsburgh grabbed two one-goal leads, but Jones never let it get to two “He’s really calm,” San Jose forward Chris Tierney said “Everyone says the same thing about Game Monday Pittsburgh Penguins at San Jose Sharks, p.m ET, NBC him — you see it on the ice and away from the rink — he’s the same guy He comes in and does his thing He never panics, never has too much to say It’s pretty calming to have a guy like him around.” Sharks general manager Doug Wilson gave up their 2016 firstround pick and a prospect to acquire Jones from the Boston Bruins last summer The Bruins had acquired Jones from the Los Angeles Kings in the Milan Lucic deal Not many of last summer’s acquisitions have had such a drastic impact on one team The Sharks gave Jones a three-year contract worth $3 million a season in June, and that makes him one of the league’s best goalie bargains When the Sharks traded goalie Antti Niemi’s rights during the 2015 draft, they hoped to acquire a goalie who could elevate their competitive swagger Jones had been Jonathan Quick’s prized understudy in Los Angeles, but no one was sure how he would perform as a No “That was the million-dollar question,” San Jose coach Peter DeBoer said “You never know how a guy is going to handle the starting job playing every night until you throw him into it.” The Sharks played 21 of their first 34 games on the road, and they had to deal with injuries to players such as Logan Couture “We were under heavy pressure in a lot of those games,” DeBoer said “(Jones) just kept playing well Even when he didn’t play well, he bounced back quickly It didn’t bother him I think that’s when we started to see what he was capable of.” Now the Sharks trust in his ability to keep them alive in a playoff series “We have all of the confidence in the world in him, because he makes key saves,” San Jose captain Joe Pavelski said The Sharks’ acquisition of Joe Thornton in 2005 for Marco Sturm, Brad Stuart and Wayne Primeau is the most important trade in franchise history Thornton became the face of the franchise and is still playing at an elite level The Jones trade is unlikely to ever surpass the magnitude of

And while ending production is not easy for cast and crew, the R&I stars note the milestone is significant RIZZOLI & ISLES TNT, MONDAY, ET/PT PHOTOS BY DOUG HYUN, TURNER Rizzoli’s executive producer says Harmon (above) and Alexander were a hit because they portray “great female friendships.” “A hundred episodes is a really huge feat these days,” Harmon says “It’s a very fickle business.” Alexander says that while she knew “our pilot had TV magic after a few seasons you start to deal with, naturally, the politics of any studio or network of just television business.” Executive producer Jan Nash, who says the final episodes “will take advantage of the fact that we get to say goodbye,” credits the series’ endurance to its twin perspectives and a cast that “brings a degree of joy to their work that you can really see when you watch it.” But she has one main theory about the show’s appeal: “Great female friendships There are a few, mostly in comedies, now — but there have not been great Always ‘on the verge’ v CONTINUED FROM 1D singer Gene Simmons, who had to apologize after he called Prince’s death “pathetic” in an interview with Newsweek “(David) Bowie was the most tragic (death) of all because it was real sickness,” Simmons said “(Prince’s) drugs killed him What you think, he died from a cold?” Some of those who have succumbed still speak to us, poignantly, from the grave Scott Weiland, former frontman of one of the biggest bands of the 1990s, Stone Temple Pilots, once said his life was a daily boxing match with his demons “I’m still on the verge all the time,” he told USA TODAY in 2011, noting that he was always shadowed — at home and on the road — by a friend entrusted with keeping him sober “I swore, of course, never to go back to heroin, but I never thought that alcohol would be the real nightmare that it actually is And it’s legal.” Weiland died in 2015, age 48, of a toxic mix of drugs, including cocaine, ethanol and the amphetamine MDA He was open about his problems with addition, even writing about it in his autobiography He worked at trying to overcome his addictions, and he still ended up dead of an overdose But it is possible to recover, just not easy, says Jamie Lee Curtis, writing in an essay on Huffington Post last month that she could relate to the reports of Prince’s “toxic” death, because she was once toxic, too “I, too, waited anxiously for a prescription to be filled for the opiate I was secretly addicted to I, too, took too many at once I, too, sought to kill emotional and physical pain with painkillers Kill it Make it stop,” she wrote “I, like all of you, mourn the passing of a great artist but I also mourn the passing of potential artists past and present, caught in this deadly vise.” For comedian Marc Maron, Alcoholics Anonymous helped save ROBYN BECK, AFP/GETTY IMAGES Fans mourn Prince after the singer was found dead at age 57 The cause was an accidental overdose SCOTT OLSON, GETTY IMAGES him from addiction, but it was hard work “If you would have told me back then that I wouldn’t desire a drink or that I wouldn’t desire to drugs at some point in my life, I don’t think I would have believed you,” he said in Slate in 2013 “Even with therapy and A.A it took me 26 years to get 14 years in a row sober I was in and out, in and out.” Shame is a powerful incentive to deny anything is wrong, says addiction specialist Clare Wais- mann of the Waismann Method Treatment Center in Beverly Hills, which specializes in treating opiate dependence “I believe one of the main causes of all these overdoses is the word ‘addiction’ carries negative connotations and associations as if addiction was a living, breathing entity caused by a lack of morals, lack of strength or a flawed character,” Waismann says “This stigma that society has created keeps the ones that need help alone, hopeless and ashamed.” The special problem for celebrities, says Paul Earley, an addiction-medicine specialist and medical director of Georgia Professionals Health Program, is that no one wants to say no to them, not even doctors “Everyone is starstruck; they have problems confronting and pushing a celebrity to get proper treatment,” Earley says “Physicians and friends feed their substance use to be close to the celebrity aura And then the celebrity dies.” Plus, celebs could have more trouble in the recovery process, says Matt Torrington, an addiction-medicine research physician who’s on the staff of the Avalon Malibu substance abuse treatment center in California “It is challenging for a celebrity to attend group support meetings, for instance, because of a lack of anonymity and fear of exposure,” he says “If (having) money is not an issue, they may never hit rock bottom, and nothing stops them until finally, a tragedy occurs.” Like Heath Ledger, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Cory Monteith, Amy Winehouse, Chris Farley, River Phoenix, Janis Joplin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix and, now, like Prince Thus, Prince becomes the lat- female friendships that have been at the forefront” of a drama since Cagney and Lacey.” Still, the series has not been afraid to test its leads’ relationship At the end of Season 2, Rizzoli shot and injured Isles’ Irish Mob-boss father, whose identity had only recently been revealed to Isles It took time for the two to regain each other’s trust But in true Rizzoli tradition, Monday’s premiere resolves the cliffhanger at the end of Season “The shooting will have repercussions on these characters’ lives,” Nash says “By the time we get to the end of the show, we will have really explored who these characters are — mostly who Jane and Maura are — what matters to them and what does that mean for them going forward.” est emblem of a surging problem in America with prescription painkiller abuse, one that results in thousands of deaths each year, most of them unremarked in the media and mourned only by their own families Lessons can be learned, we are told by the experts, but will they? After all, they haven’t so far “We need another Betty Ford,” says Richard Blondell, who specializes in prescription opioid addiction at the University at Buffalo’s medical school When the former first lady announced in the 1970s that she was addicted to alcohol and painkillers, people sat up and listened because “she had the ear of people in power,” he says “Sure, many have died before and many will die again, but those who have learned these lessons (parents of dead children) are not the ones who sit in Congress or state office and have the power to change the system,” Blondell says Epidemics of deadly drug addiction are not new in the USA, says Timothy Huckaby, a recovering fentanyl addict and specialist in pain management and addiction medicine and president of the Florida Society of Addiction Medicine “The sad truth is that this keeps happening because individuals and companies are making huge profits from exploiting a segment of our society that has a brain-reward circuit sensitivity to these brain-altering substances, and once they develop this powerful and often deadly disease called addiction, they have no ability to resist the exploitation,” Huckaby says Torin Finver, director of the Addiction Medicine Fellowship at the University at Buffalo and a recovering cocaine addict, says there is hope (therapy and medications such as methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone) But addiction is an illness centered in the part of the brain that drives instinct and leads to “manipulative” behaviors such as lying, cheating and stealing, which in turn leads to shame and guilt, he says “Celebrities and people in power, because of their smarts and prestige, keep the lies going longer,” Finver says “When they are finally found out and coerced, hopefully, into proper care, they are further along in their disease and often even more difficult to treat.” LIFE 3D USA TODAY MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 The trustfund Gerbil Jerks were not able to cash in MOVIES LOST CHARACTERS OF ‘ZOOTOPIA’ FOUND It’s a jungle out there, and not every animal made the cut But you can meet them now Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY Pity the Gerbil Jerks of Zootopia Fans of the animated Disney hit, which has made more than $1 billion at the box office worldwide, never saw the rambunctious twosome onscreen — nor characters like the Old Goat, a sheep-to-wolf transformer or tough Razorback cops Directors Byron Howard and Rich Moore cut them from the all-animal metropolis in the final version of Zootopia Even the most sophisticated animal society can be a cruel world in Hollywood But the deleted creatures will star as extras on Zootopia’s Blu-ray and digital HD release Tuesday “Just because these characters aren’t in the movie doesn’t mean we don’t love them,” Howard says “We want people to know how fun they were.” The directors placed 64 species in Zootopia But a major story switch changed the film’s primary protagonist from Nick Wilde, the con-artist fox voiced by Jason Bateman, to Judy Hopps, the first bunny in Zootopia’s police force (Ginnifer Goodwin) This killed off some in the Nick-centric world “We had these characters whose sole purpose was to make Nick’s life more difficult,” Howard says “These had to come out to make room for Hopps.” That included the Gerbil Jerks, two unapologetically mean-spirited mammals driving a tiny Italian sports car who would appear out of nowhere, run over Nick’s tail, giggle and high-five each other The Gerbil Jerks were a hit in initial screenings “The Gerbil Jerks were trustfund gerbils that had nothing better to than harass Nick,” Moore says “We were getting laughs with these guys, but with this if you like to then you should probably wear this See garmin.com/ataccuracy ©2016 Garmin Ltd or its subsidiaries PHOTOS BY DISNEY STUDIOS The elite Razorbacks police force is missing in action The Old Goat, right, is checking meters elsewhere the story turned to Judy’s point of view, they didn’t fit.” The Razorbacks, an elite police force, also didn’t fit into the retooled world Fearfully called Sniffers for their sense of smell, this buzz-cut crew kept pressure on Nick but had to go Another Nick story line featured his discovery of a villainous sheep called Wooly who disguised himself as a wolf with the aid of a powerful corset (to hold in excess wool) and a shady lupine costume Even the feeble Old Goat couldn’t make the cast after the directors tried her out in various roles in early versions Old Goat seemed to have found a home as a walker-wielding meter maid Hopps meets on her first lowly assignment “The Old Goat was supposed to be a vision of Hopps’ future if she didn’t get out of that job,” Howard says “But we felt she was gilding the lily.” The Old Goat, too, was digitally sacrificed But the directors don’t fret about the deleted characters’ well-being They’re in a better movie place “They are the stars of their own movies somewhere, where they get lots of screen time and a beautiful close-up,” Moore says “Somewhere, these characters are the Anna and Elsa of their own movies.” 4D LIFE USA TODAY MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 FASHION MOVIES McHale suits up for

ZOOTOPIA’S PORKER MAYOR GETS THE BOOT Filmmakers voted a lion into office and Swinton to jail If you’re going to hand out fashion awards in New York, you’re going to need a topnotch tux “I’m making (mine) into shorts,” cracks Joel McHale, who is actually wearing a custom David Hart suit for Monday’s Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards at NYC’s Hammerstein Ballroom And actually, “I was always a clotheshorse It drove my mom crazy.” McHale is no stranger to the podium; he has hosted events including the 2014 White House Correspondents Dinner, the 2011 Film Independent Spirit Awards and the 2015 ESPYs But this will mark the first time he has cracked jokes in front of sartorial stars such as Anna Wintour and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen How fashion-literate is McHale? “I’ve never been to fashion week,” he acknowledges, but he did get schooled on finer threads while hosting The Soup “There was a clothing budget, so I began to wear some very elegant clothes, some of them I still have,” he says “And I love Bryan Alexander MIKE WINDLE, GETTY IMAGES, FOR P.S ARTS JEMAL COUNTESS, GETTY IMAGES them, from Gucci to Burberry to Zegna, Tom Ford.” (And McHale has opinions on neckwear: “I think I got rid of 150 skinny ties a while ago.”) At the CFDAs, otherwise known as the fashion Oscars, the Olsens’ The Row will compete for the Womenswear Designer of the Year award against Joseph Altuzarra of Altuzarra, Marc Jacobs, Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez of Proenza Schouler and Kate and Laura Mulleavy for Rodarte Menswear nominees are Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne of Public School, Marcus Wainwright and David Neville of Rag & Bone, Tim Coppens, Thom Browne and Todd Snyder fashion McHale’s splurge comes straight from that list “I did buy some Thom Browne dress shirts,” he says “And they are superexpensive.” Also on Monday, the Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement award will be presented to Norma Kamali, while Donna Karan will be honored with the Founder’s Award and Alessandro Michele of Gucci will be given the International award Winners also will be named for accessories and Swarovski awards for womenswear and menswear And since the CFDA Awards are not televised, “I’m sure crazier things will be said than usual,” he says After A-listers pose on the red carpet with their designer dates (and sip champagne on the way to their seats), Michael C Hall will perform a tribute to David Bowie, and Jennifer Hudson will close the show McHale says he was a “big, huge fan of David Bowie He was much more than just a musician He was a cultural icon.” How’s life after The Soup (which McHale hosted for 12 years before it got the ax last November)? Pretty tasty McHale will start shooting his CBS show, The Great Indoors, in August In it he plays a Bear Grylls-type adventure journalist who gets saddled with a desk job after years reporting in the wild He’s now working with Millennials in a Buzzfeed-ish office (with Stephen Fry playing his boss) “It’s about relationships and generations, and is really a workplace comedy,” he says So will that new suit go back on Tuesday? McHale laughs “They built me a suit because I am so much larger than most people,” he says “I don’t know who it would fit other than Frankenstein.” @BryAlexand USA TODAY The Ultimate Father’s Day Gift!

Swinton didn’t die completely A scaled-down version of the pig showed up fleetingly as a prison warden at the end of Zootopia “With many of these characters we cut, we recycle them,” Moore says “And Swinton wouldn’t be the first politician to end up in jail.” Delay Paymeed Availa nt ble Call or click now: www.800soaring.com Ask about our “Let’s Give Something Back” Program We give a free ticket to schools, churches and charities for use in fundraisers USA TODAY’s Affluent Readers Have Mass Buying Power er!

Local Programs CABLE SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE FOX, ET/PT This reality show, once summer’s best, continues with its worst idea yet: a switch to dancers ages to 13 that has disaster and desperation stamped all over it, aside from the usual concerns about children in the genre There’s no doubt some of the dancers will be talented, but SYTYCD was always about much more than talent It was about skill, life experience, artistry — and often, in the costumes, choreography and pairings — sex, something we can assume is now off the table As for the other attributes, those are simply qualities you don’t find in children, at least not anywhere close to the same degree No doubt some of the kids will be cute, and for some viewers, that will be enough But it’s not SYTYCD, and it’s not a show I see any reason to watch DEVIOUS MAIDS LIFETIME, ET/PT This comic soap returns with special guest Eva Longoria, who co-produces the show with Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry And to extend the Desperate connection, James Denton joins Maids in a recurring role Gran Torino Korean War veteran helps troubled teen Clint Eastwood (2009) (7:30) TURN: Washington’s Spies (N) TURN: Washington’s Spies Yukon Men Fur sought Yukon Men Beaver trapping Rugged Justice Intoxicated boater Top Gear Top Gear (N) Yukon Men Goose season Top Gear (N) Obsessed Temp worker develops fascination for employer and tries to seduce him Idris Elba, Beyoncé (2009) Husbands Southern Charm The Real Housewives of Dallas (N) Southern Charm American Dad!
