Gunman in Louisiana kills
3 cops and injures 3 others
‘Stop this killing’ is cry in Baton Rouge as nation reels from violence
By Amy Ellis Nutt, Matt
Zapotosky, Mark Berman
The Washington Post
BATON ROUGE, LA. — A lone gunman
killed three law enforcement officers and
wounded three others in Baton Rouge on
Sunday morning, less than two weeks after
the death of an African-American man at
the hands of Baton Rouge police.
The shootings occurred when police
responded to a 911 call that a man, dressed
in black and armed with what appeared to
be an assault-style rifle, was walking near a
shopping plaza about a mile from police
headquarters.
The deaths shocked a nation already on
edge over recent killings by police, a run of
violence that began July 5 in Baton Rouge
and which has now left 10 dead, including
eight law enforcement officers and two
residents killed by police.
Two city policemen and one sheriff’s
deputy were fatally wounded, and another
sheriff’s deputy was critically injured, said
Col. Michael Edmonson, the superintendent of the Louisiana State Police at a news
conference.

Hogan weighs releasing
funds Assembly ‘fenced off’
Priority projects of
legislature, governor await
his release of money
By Michael Dresser
The Baltimore Sun
At Prettyboy Elementary School in
northern Baltimore County, workers are
tearing up worn carpeting and replacing
the floor as part of a $200,000 project paid
for by Maryland’s Aging Schools Program.
All over Maryland, dozens of similar
state-financed projects are in the works in
public schools, but the program could
grind to a halt if Gov. Larry Hogan decides
not to release $6.1 million the General
Assembly set aside for it in this year’s
budget.
The money is part of $160 million the
legislature “fenced off” in the budget,
telling Hogan he may spend the money
only for purposes they specified. But
under Maryland’s strong-executive Constitution, the legislature cannot force the
inside
Baltimore City Council members plan to
begin work this week on legislation that
would rapidly increase the city’s minimum
wage to $15 an hour — a proposal that has
drawn heavy criticism from city agencies,
economists and businesses.
Council members are split on the measure, which would increase the minimum
wage to $15 by 2020. Mayor Stephanie
Rawlings-Blake has not formally opposed
the bill, but the city’s Finance Department
estimated it would cost the city more than
$150 million over the next five years, and
push the unemployment rate as high as 10.6
percent.
“This would return the City to the
unemployment levels of the Great Recession, and virtually all of the jobs lost would
be youth, young adults and unskilled jobs,”
the department reported.
Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke introduced the bill in April amid a national
movement to increase the minimum wage.
The federal minimum wage is $7.25. New
York, California, the District of Columbia,
San Francisco and Seattle all have approved
legislation to push the rate to $15 over time.
Maryland’s minimum wage increased to
$8.75 from $8.25 this month, the first of

governor to spend the money. He could
just add it to the state’s roughly $360
million budget surplus.
Some lawmakers believe Hogan is
determined to withhold the funds, but
spokesman Matthew A.
Clark said the governor
has yet to decide.
“We’re going to look
carefully at the items
they fenced off,” he said.
“We are keeping a very
close eye on revenues in
order to make decisions
that match up with fisHogan
cal realities.”
The decision is part of a broader
struggle between the Republican governor and Democratic-dominated legislature over who gets to decide spending
priorities in the state’s $42 billion operating budget.
The fenced-off money has taken on a
political importance larger than its actual
effect on state finances.
“That’s a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of the

and death of Freddie Gray.
The charges
Rice is charged with involuntary manslaughter, misconduct in office and
reckless endangerment. Circuit Judge
Barry G. Williams dropped a charge of
second-degree assault during the
trial, and prosecutors dropped a second misconduct-in-office charge at

A suspect surrenders to Baltimore police after a standoff inside inside a Burger King restaurant at Washington Boulevard and South
Monroe Street. Four hostages were held during the incident.
Hostages unharmed after being
held in SW Baltimore restaurant
By Colin Campbell
The Baltimore Sun
An armed man suspected in an alleged
recent rape took four people hostage —
including a 7-year-old girl — for hours
Sunday inside a Baltimore Burger King,
where he had barricaded himself following
a police pursuit across the city that ended in
a car crash, authorities said.
After hours of negotiations, the man
released the first two hostages one at a time,
authorities said, then surrendered to police
with his hands in the air and walked out of
the Carroll Park restaurant with the last two
hostages just before 5 p.m.
Keysha MacKall, mother of 7-year-old
Kamya Commander, said she was relieved
her daughter and the other hostages were
unharmed. Kamya smiled as she stood next
to her sipping a Slurpee.
“It’s been like hell,” MacKall said. “My
nerves was all over the place. ... I’m just glad
she’s fine. She’s here.”
The arrest of the unidentified suspect
brought an end to a 51⁄2 -hour standoff in the
hot Sunday sun that prompted Baltimore
Police to request SWAT reinforcements
from Howard, Harford and Anne Arundel
counties. Police said charges are pending.
Officers initially tried to stop the man to
serve him an arrest warrant on the
northwest side of the city about11a.m., when
he sped off and led police on a chase to
Washington Boulevard and South Monroe
Street, police said.
The man’s car crashed into another car at
the intersection about 11:30 a.m. and ran
inside the fast food restaurant, where he
barricaded himself and the hostages, police

said.
The driver of the other car sustained
minor injuries and was treated at a hospital,
police said.
Tactical units lined up, guns drawn, along
the restaurant’s exterior wall Sunday afternoon. An officer with an assault rifle
ordered bystanders to clear Carroll Park.
Police taped off the crime scene a block
away, and the Foxtrot helicopter circled
overhead.
The owner of the Burger King franchise
paced anxiously along the police line. He
declined to be interviewed.
Three others were taken hostage with the
girl, police said: a 67-year-old customer and
two female employees, a 17-year-old and
25-year-old.
“We’re very fortunate this situation
ended peacefully,” Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith said.
The 17-year-old was released about 1:45
p.m., police said. Then came the release of
the 67-year-old shortly before 2:30 p.m.
The suspect made clear in the negotiations that he did not want to hurt any of the
hostages, Smith said. Police negotiators
were in “constant communication” with the
man, Smith said, and his family members
assisted by speaking to him over the phone
during the standoff.
“He made the decision to do the right
thing and that was not to harm anyone,”
Smith said. “He absolutely had the opportunity to do so, but he chose not to do so.”
Ryan Weinberger, 29, of Glen Burnie, said
he was in the dining room as the suspect ran
into the restaurant.
“Don’t come in here!” the suspect yelled
repeatedly after running from the crash,
Weinberger said.
The man appeared frantic and was
talking on a cellphone, Weinberger said.
Weinberger said he had stopped at the
Burger King for lunch on his way home
from dropping his sister off in Pigtown.
Weinberger said he heard the crash and
walked over to the window to take a picture
of it when he realized that police were
surrounding the restaurant and the man
who’d run in was armed.
He was one of three customers who
escaped through a side door after the
suspect came in through the front, he said.
“One of the customers grabbed me and
said, ‘Get out — run,’ ” Weinberger said.
A young girl with pigtails had been
playing a game on an iPhone behind the
counter while Weinberger ordered his
burger, milk shake and onion rings, he said.
Police said Kamya was related to an
employee, but they did not say who. They
did not identify the other hostages.
Valerie MacKall, of Cherry Hill, Kamya’s
great-aunt, was trembling as she arrived.
She was relieved to hear the suspect had
surrendered and her grandniece was safe.
“I’m going to hold her and tell her I love
her, and everything’s going to be OK,” she
said.

GOOD WORKS
McDaniel College
reading clinic
fosters education
and enjoyment
By Emily Chappell
Baltimore Sun Media Group
Public schools have been out for a few
weeks now, but at Robert Moton Elementary School in Westminster, the rooms in
recent weeks have been bustling with
students and teachers.
The rooms were decorated with maps
and flags representing the Summer Olympics — the theme of this year’s McDaniel
College Reading Clinic.
Deb Miller, program coordinator of the
master’s degree program for reading specialists at McDaniel, said the clinic is
designed to help graduate students put into
action what they’ve learned, and at the
same time help local students who could
benefit from a little extra help with reading
skills.
“It’s practice of all the concepts and
content,” she said.
The summer program is a joint initiative
between Carroll County Public Schools
and the college. she said.
The McDaniel effort is also a Title I
federal program “that provides financial
assistance to local school systems and
schools with high percentages of poor
children to support the academic achievement of disadvantaged students,” according to the Maryland State Department of
Education.
The students, who range in grades from
third to fifth, spend four weeks developing
reading comprehension under McDaniel
instructors, Miller said.
Ashleigh Rizzo, a teacher at Robert
Moton and a McDaniel student serving as
an instructor for the program, described it
as a benefit to both McDaniel and the
young students – many of whom hate to see

it end. The program is important, she said,
because it gives special attention to those
who can really benefit from it.
“We invite just the ones that really need
the help,” she said.
Miller said the McDaniel instructors
work primarily to keep the children on a
level maintaining what they’ve learned
throughout the year, and stress exercises to
help make sure they don’t lose that
knowledge over the summer months.
That includes a focus to help them keep
skills developing once the program is over
and before the new school year starts in the
fall. During a session this past week,
instructors gave parents a set of recommendations that mirrored what the children did this summer, Miller said.
“Our goal is that they will then continue
working,” she said.
Of course, some children go far beyond
simply maintaining skills, and show great
progress in their reading and writing
prowess.
Rizzo had some youngsters have improved not only their abilities to read and
write, but are getting more out of what
they’re reading – which makes them
hungry for more.
“They’re actually thinking during reading now,” she said. “And they’re enjoying it.”

A manual of employee expectations and
work processes wouldn’t be noteworthy in
most workplaces, but for the Baltimore
Board of Liquor License Commissioners, a
set of standard operating procedures released Thursday represents its latest step to
remedy longstanding problems within the
agency and improve relationships with
local stakeholders.
The board, which regulates liquor licenses at bars, restaurants and other
establishments across the city, has been
mired in controversy for years, and had no
formal guidelines for its staff before the
manual’s publication. The procedures have
been in draft form for several years and
address a number of problems exposed in a
2013 audit of the agency. They come as
another audit is due to be published.
Although mandated by the state, the new
procedures are part of the board’s efforts to
make the organization more effective and
transparent, commissioners said.
“A lot of the problems that our agency
incurred was that one person would do it
one way, another person would do it
another way and there was this sense that
the process wasn’t fair,” said Thomas Akras,
the board’s deputy executive secretary.
“And by publishing this document, by
training our employees, we can hold them
accountable, and the public can hold us
accountable for being fair.”
The board has been slow to evolve since
the 2013 audit unveiled widespread problems within the agency, including 311
complaints closed prematurely, inspections
handled inconsistently and failure to follow
state law in awarding licenses. Commissioners said part of the delay in righting
those problems stemmed from turnover in
board leadership and staff. The agency has
seen three sets of commissioners in the past
three years.
“When you don’t have commissioners
directing staff and you don’t have staff that’s
permanent and has institutional knowledge
… it trickles down to the administrative
staff, certainly the inspectors and how they
inspect,” commissioner Aaron Greenfield
said.
Greenfield, commissioner Dana Moore
and chairman Albert Matricciani were
appointed in late April by Mayor Stephanie
Rawlings-Blake and City Council President
Bernard C. “Jack” Young after the power of
liquor board appointments was transferred
to the city from the governor.
They replaced chairman Benjamin Neil
and commissioners Douglas Trotter and
Elizabeth Hafey, whose appointments had
not been confirmed by state senators. That
board also helped craft the operating
procedures.
Now, armed with a document that
outlines day-to-day operations, a new
system to track employee performance and
a budget surplus, the agency’s members are
starting to realize the work their predecessors began.
“I do think it’s a turning point. I feel like
the temperature’s coming down,” said
Moore, who previously served on the board
in 2014-2015. “We want to demystify this
board and the work that we do. … And I
don’t think this is a board of ogres; this is a
board of people that care about Baltimore
just as much as anybody else.”
Matricciani said he was pleased to see
the operating procedures were in the
pipeline when he joined the board.
“When I first read the audit from 2013, I
was taken aback at so many serious
criticisms about the way that money was
handled internally … evaluations of staff, the
supervision of inspectors and on,” he said. “I
thought, ‘What did I get myself into?’ ”
The procedures address the daily workings of liquor board staff, no matter how
mundane. They include instructions on
processing license transfers and amendments, docket preparation guidelines, policies for responding to 311 calls, and processes for conducting inspections and reviewing violations.
At the same time, the board has created a
system to track inspectors’ productivity,
which includes monthly goals and breakdowns of the number and type of inspections they complete. Similar to the
Baltimore Health Department’s recent upgrade, the liquor board is hoping to soon
equip its inspectors with tablets that allow
them to upload inspection results in real
time.
Another project that has been in the
works for several years — creating an online
portal that allows the public to view liquor
license files — is set to roll out by the end of
the month. It was due a year ago.
Chrissy Anderson, president of the Fells
Prospect Community Association, said she
would have liked to see those projects come
to fruition sooner, but she’s been largely
pleased with the changes the board has
implemented.
“I do see a major difference,” she said.
“[The previous board] let licensees or their
attorneys kind of run the show, and they’re
not standing for that anymore.”

Near RNC site, man goes
great guns to make point
By Matt Pearce
and James Queally
Los Angeles Times
CLEVELAND — A top
police union official asked
Ohio’s governor to temporarily ban guns outside the
Republican National Convention in downtown
Cleveland after the shooting of several police officers
in Louisiana renewed fears
about the safety of this
week’s political gathering.
But a spokeswoman for
Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a
Republican, said Sunday
that he did not have the
power to suspend the
state’s open-carry laws.
The city has banned a
wide variety of potential
weapons from the protest
zone near the convention —
a list that includes tennis
balls, water pistols and bicycle locks — but cannot
limit firearms.
The dispute over the
open-carry law, which is
similar to statutes in most
other states, came as protesters from a long list of
organizations began to
gather here for demonstrations that are expected
to last at least until Donald
Trump accepts the Republican presidential nomination on Thursday.
Sunday afternoon, a man
with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, a handgun and
ammunition stood in
Cleveland’s downtown
Public Square saying he
was there to exercise his
rights and make a point.
“What are you going to
do, ban everything that kills
people?” Steve Thacker, a
57-year-old IT engineer
from Westlake, Ohio, asked
when someone criticized
his decision to walk
through Cleveland with the
rifle. “The point is to protect yourself. This world is
not the world I grew up in.”
A local resident, Steve
Roberts, 61, who was riding
his bike through the square,
stopped to acknowledge
that Thacker was within
his rights, but asked him to

People gather in grief Sunday at a makeshift memorial to the victims of last week’s
attack in Nice, France. Eight people have been taken into custody since the attack.
In France, more signs
of killer’s radicalization
By Frank Jordans
and Angela Charlton
Associated Press
NICE, France — There is
mounting evidence that
Mohamed Lahouaiej
Bouhlel, the Tunisian-born
truck driver responsible for
the deadly carnage in Nice
last week, had recently
absorbed extremist ideas
and had become radicalized, French authorities
said Sunday.
The image of a religious
extremist is at odds with
the portrait that neighbors
and family members initially painted of a man who
ignored even the most basic rules of Islam by eating
pork, drinking alcohol and
shunning the mosque.
Many of those who
knew him said in the days
after Thursday’s Bastille
Day attack that Bouhlel, 31,
was a difficult person, describing him variously as
aloof and hostile, even violent at times. In March, he
received a suspended sentence for a road-rage incident — not enough to put
him on the radar of
France’s security services.
But officials said Sunday
that Bouhlel, who was
killed by police Thursday,
had apparently undergone
a rapid conversion to radical Islam and carefully
planned the attack that
claimed the lives of at least
84 people, including 10
children.
Hours after the Islamic
State group claimed responsibility for the attack
Saturday, Prime Minister
Manuel Valls said authorities “now know that the
killer radicalized very
quickly.”
Neither Islamic State
nor the French government have provided tangible evidence of a link
between the group and
Bouhlel. But Valls told the
newspaper Le Journal du
Dimanche in an interview
Sunday that the extremist
group “is encouraging individuals unknown to our
services to stage attacks.”
“That is without a doubt
the case in the Nice attack,”
said Valls, warning that
“terrorism will be part of
our daily lives for a long
time.”
Bouhlel rented the refrigerated truck on July 11,
purchased a pistol and was
seen on closed-circuit TV
footage visiting the Prome-
nade des Anglais in the
following days, according
to a French security official, who wasn’t authorized
to be publicly named
speaking about an ongoing
investigation.
On Thursday, Bouhlel
sent text messages to people who may have been
accomplices, the official
said. One of those who
received text messages was
among eight people taken
into custody after the attack. The official wouldn’t
comment on the content of
the text messages or confirm reports that they included a request for more
weapons.
At least two of the three
people detained Sunday
are suspected of helping
Bouhlel obtain the pistol
found in the truck, the
official said.
Most of those taken in
for questioning, including
Bouhlel’s estranged wife,
who has since been released, described him as
violent and unstable. While
they all said he had long
been indifferent to religion,
some described a recent
and very rapid conversion
to radical Islam, the official
said.
leave.
“You’ve shown it — why
don’t you take it back?”
Roberts, who was wearing
a “Stand for Love” T-shirt,
told Thacker. “I find it
offensive.”
The miniature drama
between the men could be
one of many that will play
out as viewpoints collide in
Cleveland this week — not
just left versus right, but
sometimes far-left versus
far-right.
In preparation, metal security fencing stands
around the convention site,
which is protected by the
U.S. Secret Service. The rest
is the responsibility of a
police force including
thousands of officers from
agencies from California to
Florida who have been
sworn in with arrest powers in the city.
“It’s game time,” Cleveland Police Chief Calvin
Williams said Sunday
morning, “and we’re ready
for it.”
Black nationalists drew
an escort of bicycle officers
in helmets and shorts as
they marched through the
city Saturday. Planes towing banners opposing abortion and supporting the
imprisonment of Hillary
Clinton circled the city
Sunday, while on the
ground, hundreds of activists marched through the
streets to protest Trump
and killings by police.
Meanwhile, a small but
raucous crowd began to
chant outside the Cleveland Masonic and Performance Arts Center.
“No Trump. No KKK. No
fascist USA,” the crowd
chanted.
On Monday, one group
of anti-Trump activists
plans to hold an illegal
march to the Quicken
Loans Arena to have a
“clash of ideas” with
Trump supporters. The
city granted the group use
of a public park, but denied
them a permit for the route
it desired, said organizer
Tom Burke.
Cleveland police union
president Steven Loomis,
who called for the ban on
guns outside the Republican National Convention,
said he was not “against the
Second Amendment.”
But recent killings of
police in Dallas and Louisiana, combined with volatile
confrontations that could
occur outside the convention, will create situations
that are too risky for city
police, he said.
City officials canceled a
planned security briefing
for reporters Sunday night
but said nothing about
whether Sunday’s Louisiana shootings would
change the security plan.

ANALYSIS
Political battle
just beginning
on terror front
Candidates differ
on how to tackle
U.S., global crises
By Cathleen Decker
Los Angeles Times
CLEVELAND — Two
successive weeks of political conventions meant to
frame the November choice
for president kick off this
week nearly obscured by
violence and terror here
and abroad.
That has driven a fierce
imperative during both
gatherings, the Republican
convention, which begins
Monday, and next week’s
Democratic one: convince
voters that the party nominee can be an effective
leader in a world that seems
distraught and divided.
The presumptive nominees have offered voters
different responses to that
need.
“Hillary is a weak person,” Donald Trump said
Saturday, referring to Democrat Hillary Clinton during
a meandering introduction
of his vice presidential pick,
Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, in
New York. “We are the
law-and-order candidates,
and we’re the law-and-order party. We’re going to
change things around.”
While Trump talks of
strength, Clinton pushes
steadiness. Her campaign
released a video referring to
Trump as “always divisive,
not so decisive,” as it recounted Trump’s back-andforth contradictions as he
selected his running mate.
That came atop a television ad that showed Trump
telling interviewer Chuck
Todd that he got his military
advice information from
“the shows,” referring to
Sunday news programs.
“Hillary Clinton, a steady
leader in an unsteady
world,” the ad concludes.
In marketing themselves
to American voters, both
candidates are operating
from a posture of political
weakness.
Clinton and Trump are
regarded negatively by a
majority of Americans,
meaning that both are try-

ing to persuade voters who
are, at least at this point,
dissatisfied with their
choice in November.
The lack of popularity on
the part of either candidate
could alter what has historically been the response to
crisis: opting for the most
experienced or publicly stable candidate.
In any other year that
would be Clinton, a former
first lady, U.S. senator and
secretary of state. But concerns about her character
appear to have blunted her
advantage over Trump.
The New York businessman, whose inexperience
with foreign policy and mil-
itary matters might otherwise have disqualified him
during such turbulent
times, benefited during the
primary season as voters
turned away from experience and toward a toughtalking, if detail-free, alternative.
Unknown at the moment
is what would happen if
similar disruptions persist
through Election Day.
Clinton’s and Trump’s
approaches as they try to
surmount the political challenges to the outburst of
violence here and abroad
have diverged along the
same lines seen elsewhere
in the campaign.
Trump played to fear
with an apocalyptic tone
and few concrete solutions.
“Another horrific attack,
this time in Nice, France.
Many dead and injured.
When will we learn? It is
only getting worse,” he said
on Twitter.
Clinton has taken a more
diplomatic tone. The U.S.
had to work with other
nations to defeat terrorism,
she said as she warned
against unilateral actions
that would feed terrorist
recruitment. She used as a
case study the Obama administration’s extensive efforts to find and capture
Osama bin Laden before he

was killed in a U.S. raid.
“It’s a different kind of
war, and we have to be
smart about how we wage it
and win it,” she said during
a telephone interview with
CNN.
A ground war in Syria, of
the sort that Trump appeared to be hinting at,
would only boost the ranks
of terrorists, she said.
“They would love to
draw the United States into
a ground war in Syria,” she
said.
Both candidates face risk
as they confront an environment churning with concern.
Clinton’s campaign has
been operating like a cohesive machine, and she has
confronted crises with a
sense of surety and deliberateness. That can be reassuring to some voters. But to
others, it can seem to telegraph a lack of urgency,
even if there are no swift
solutions to the problem at
hand.
Trump has the opposite
problem. In trying mightily
to adjust to a presidential
campaign, he has demonstrated a capacity for disarray that to some voters
could suggest lack of readiness for the White House.
But the traits they illustrate are easily transferable,
given the world’s turmoil.
From now on, everything
the candidates do will be
viewed through the lenses
of steadiness and strength.

Mourners mark Garner death anniversary
By Michael Balsamo
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Marking
two years since Eric Garner’s death became a flash
point in a national debate
about relations between police and minority communities, his mother joined families of more than a dozen
men killed by police Sunday
at a New Jersey church
before laying flowers at her
son’s grave.
“My heart is heavy today,” Garner’s mother,
Gwen Carr, said as she
stood at his grave site holding a bouquet of yellow
flowers and white balloons.
“I love you my son. You’ll
always be my strength,” she
said tearfully.
Before traveling to the
cemetery in a white limousine, Carr joined the Rev. Al
Sharpton and dozens of
mourners to remember
Garner at a church service
in Elizabeth, N.J. They were
joined by more than a dozen
families whose children had
been killed by police, including the family of Tamir
Rice, a 12-year-old killed in
Cleveland months after
Garner.
“We’re not fighting for
revenge; we’re fighting for
justice,” Sharpton said.
“This is not a battle against
the police; it’s a battle
against wrong.”
Carr said families of all
races need to do more to
support each other and
called for stronger policecommunity relationships.
“Let’s not wait until tragedy knocks on our door,”
she told churchgoers.
Garner’s July 17, 2014,
death had been captured on
video, which showed him
calling out “I can’t breathe”
as New York City police
officers pinned him down
and one held him in an
apparent chokehold. Garner’s dying words became a
rallying cry at protests
nationwide over police killings of black men.
At a church service in
Staten Island, N.Y., on Sunday morning, New York
City Mayor Bill de Blasio, a
Democrat, said society had
to overcome “a history of
structured racism to move
forward.”

Turkey widens
crackdown as
6,000 detained
Response to failed
coup sweeps up
military, judiciary
By Sarah El Deeb and
Suzan Fraser
Associated Press
ISTANBUL — Following
a failed coup against Turkish President Recep Tayyip
Erdogan, the government
moved swiftly Sunday to
shore up his power and
remove those perceived as
an enemy, saying it has
detained 6,000 people.
The crackdown targeted
not only generals and soldiers but a wide swath of
the judiciary that has sometimes blocked Erdogan,
raising concerns that the
effort to oust him will push
Turkey even further into
authoritarian rule.
The plotters on Friday
sent warplanes firing on key
government installations
and tanks rolling into major
cities, but it ended hours
later when loyal government forces regained control of the military, and
civilians took to the streets
in support of Erdogan. At
least 294 people were killed
and more than 1,400
wounded, the government
said.
On Sunday, Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said the
coup had failed and life has
returned to normal. “Another calamity has been
thwarted,” Yildirim said in
Ankara after visiting state
TRT television, which had
been seized by soldiers supporting the coup. “However,
our duty is not over. We
shall rapidly conduct the
cleansing operation so that
they cannot again show the
audacity of coming against
the will of the people.”
Yildirim said those involved with the failed coup
“will receive every punishment they deserve.” Erdogan suggested that Turkey might reinstate capital
punishment, which was legally abolished in 2004 as
part of the country’s bid to
join the European Union.
Even before the weekend
chaos in Turkey, the NATO
member and key Western
ally in the fight against
Islamic State had been
racked by political turmoil
that critics blamed on Erdo-

gan’s increasingly heavyhanded rule. He has shaken
up the government, cracked
down on dissent, restricted
the media and renewed
fighting with Kurdish rebels.
Speaking to a large crowd
of supporters in front of his
Istanbul residence Sunday
evening, Erdogan responded to frequent calls of “We
want the death penalty!” by
saying: “We hear your request. In a democracy,
whatever the people want
they will get.”
Grief-stricken relatives in
Ankara and Istanbul buried
those killed in the coup
attempt, and prayers for the
dead were read simultaneously at noon Sunday at
Turkey’s 85,000 mosques.
Erdogan attended a funeral
for his campaign manager,
Erol Olcak, and his 16-yearold son, Abdullah Tayyip
Olcak. The president wept
and vowed to take the country forward in “unity and
solidarity.”
Observers said the scale
of the crackdown, especially against the judiciary,
indicated the government
was taking the opportunity
to further consolidate Erdogan’s power.
“The factions within the
military opposed to Erdogan who did this just gave
him carte blanche to crack
down not only on the military but on the judiciary,”
said Aykan Erdemir, a former lawmaker from the
main opposition party and
now a senior fellow at the
U.S.-based Foundation for
Defense of Democracies.
“The coup plotters couldn’t
have helped Erdogan
more.”
In a half-dozen cities,
tens of thousands marched
throughout the day after
officials urged them to defend democracy and back
Erdogan, Turkey’s top politician for 13 years. At nightfall, flag-waving crowds rallied in Istanbul’s Taksim
Square, Ankara’s Kizilay
Square and elsewhere.
This month, parliament
approved a controversial
bill to reform two Turkish
high courts, which allows
the government to dismiss
hundreds of administrative
and high appeals court
judges and allow Erdogan
to replace them with judges
loyal to him.
The government alleged
the coup conspirators were
loyal to moderate U.S.based cleric Fethullah Gulen, whom Erdogan has
often accused of trying to
overthrow the government.
Gulen, who lives in Saylorsburgh, Pa., espouses a
philosophy that blends a
mystical form of Islam with
democracy. He is a former
Erdogan ally turned bitter
foe who has been put on
trial in absentia in Turkey,
where the government has
labeled his movement a
terrorist organization. He
strongly denies the government’s charges.
At a funeral in Istanbul,
Erdogan vowed to “clean all
state institutions of the virus” of Gulen’s supporters.
He also called on the United
States to extradite Gulen.
At two weekend news
conferences, Gulen strongly
denied any role in or knowledge of the coup. Gulen
even raised the possibility
the coup attempt had been
staged, saying it had “all the
signs of a movie scenario,”
in order to purge the military of Erdogan’s opponents.
Pakistani man: Killed sister for ‘honor’
By Asim Tanveer
and Zarar Khan
Associated Press
FAISAL KAREEM/EPA
Waseem Azeem says he slipped sedatives to his sister,
Pakistani model Qandeel Baloch, and later strangled her.
MULTAN, Pakistan —
The brother of slain Pakistani model and activist
Qandeel Baloch on Sunday
confessed to strangling her
for “family honor” because
she posted “shameful” pictures on Facebook.
Baloch, who had become
a social media celebrity in
recent months, stirred controversy by posting pictures
online taken with a prominent Muslim cleric. She was
found dead on Saturday at
her family home in the
central city of Multan.
Police arrested her brother, Waseem Azeem, and
presented him before the
media in Multan, where he
confessed to killing her. He
said people had taunted
him over the photos and
that he found the social
embarrassment unbearable.
“I was determined either
to kill myself or kill her,”
Azeem said as he was being
led away.
He said that even though
Baloch was the main bread-
winner for the family, he
slipped her sedatives the
night before and then strangled her in her sleep.
“Money matters, but
family honor is more important,” said Azeem.
Nearly 1,000 women are
murdered in Pakistan each
year for violating conservative norms on love, marriage and public behavior.
The so-called honor killings
are often carried out by
family members.
Such killings are considered murder. But Islamic
law in Pakistan allows a
murder victim’s family to
pardon the killer, which
often allows those convicted of honor killings to
escape punishment.
Regional police Chief
Sultan Taimuri said authorities will seek the maximum
punishment for Azeem,
without providing further
details.
Baloch, whose real name
was Fauzia Azeem, was
buried Sunday.
In postings and public
comments, she presented
herself as a symbol of female empowerment.

Melissa McCarthy stars in director Paul Feig’s
much-scrutinized reboot of “Ghostbusters.”
‘Ghostbusters’ can’t
scare away ‘Pets’
After months of pre-release debate, Sony Picture’s
female-led “Ghostbusters” reboot arrived in theaters
as neither a massive success nor the bomb some predicted, as the much-scrutinized film opened with an
estimated $46 million in North American theaters,
second to the holdover hit “The Secret Life of Pets.”
“The Secret Life of Pets” stayed on top with $50.6
million in its second week, according to studio estimates Sunday.
But all eyes were on Paul Feig’s “Ghostbusters,”
which resurrects the 1984 original with a cast of Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones and Kate
McKinnon. Sony, noting it was the best opening for a
live-action comedy in more than a year, called the
result “a triumph.”
Yet given its hefty price tag — the film cost $144
million to make, after rebates, plus more than $100
million to market — it’s a relatively tepid start for
“Ghostbusters” that will put pressure on the film to
perform well overseas. And that could be a challenge
in some territories that don’t have the same familiarity
with the original “Ghostbusters” films.
For Sony, the stakes for “Ghostbusters” were extremely high. The film is intended to kick off several
future “Ghostbusters” installments.
But the film found plenty of detractors. Some fans
objected to the gender switch, others complained that
the first trailer was subpar and some even fretted that
any new incarnation of the comedy classic (one of the
biggest box office hits of the 1980s) would tarnish
their fragile memories.

NOTABLE DEATHS ELSEWHERE
WENDELL ANDERSON, 83
Former governor of Minnesota
Wendell Anderson loved being Minnesota’s governor so much that he couldn’t wait
to get to work in the morning. But when he
abandoned the Capitol in a slippery move to
get to Washington, voters never forgave the
youthful Democrat who just three years
earlier won statewide accolades for embodying Minnesota’s strengths on an iconic
Time magazine cover.
Mr. Anderson, a handsome Olympic silver
medalist in hockey, gave up the job he loved
in 1976, resigning so that second-in-command Rudy Perpich could become governor
and name him to fill the U.S. Senate seat
vacated by newly elected Vice President
Walter Mondale. The move was deeply
unpopular and voters decisively ousted Mr.
Anderson two years later in favor of
Republican Rudy Boschwitz.
Mr. Anderson, who died Sunday, was
never elected again, though friends said he
longed to return to public life.
Mr. Anderson’s family issued a statement,
calling the former governor many things: “A
kid from East St. Paul. A Gopher. An
Olympian. An elected public servant of the
highest order. But above all else he was a
Minnesotan. His love for the state and its
citizens was second only to his love for his
family.”
Mr. Anderson reached the summit of
Minnesota politics in 1970 when he won the
governor’s office at age 37.
The next year, he pushed through an
overhaul of school aid and taxes that became
known as the “Minnesota miracle.” In a
special legislative session that stretched
more than five months past normal deadlines, Mr. Anderson outmaneuvered the
conservative-dominated Legislature by rejecting an alternate tax plan he called “the
old way of doing things.”

The outdoorsy governor familiarly known
as “Wendy” landed on the cover of the Aug.
13, 1973, issue of Time, shown hoisting a
trophy fish over the headline “The Good Life
in Minnesota.” The story inside called Mr.
Anderson a “Midwestern Kennedy.”
The son of a sausage delivery truck driver,
Mr. Anderson was born on Feb. 1, 1933, in St.
Paul, where he grew up on the city’s
blue-collar East Side. He played hockey at
Johnson High School and the University of
Minnesota, where he got his law degree
while serving in the Legislature. He was an
Army infantry officer and won a silver medal
as a member of the U.S. hockey team in the
1956 Olympics.
He jumped into politics young, winning
his first election to the Minnesota House in
1958 when he was 25 and moving up to the
state Senate four years later. He headed Vice
President Hubert H. Humphrey’s Minnesota presidential campaign in 1968 before
running for governor in 1970.
Mr. Anderson crushed his Republican
opponent, John Johnson, by better than
2-to-1 to win a second term in 1974.
Mr. Anderson’s fall began when he
resigned as governor on Dec. 26, 1976, to
claim Mondale’s Senate seat.
But the self-appointment was unpopular
from the beginning. He apologized in a TV
ad, saying, “Many tell me it was a mistake,
and I accept your judgment.” Voters rejected
Mr. Anderson by a wide margin in 1978.
His friend, former Democratic Senate
Majority Leader Roger Moe, has said Mr.
Anderson should be remembered for what
he accomplished.
“His tenure as governor will go down in
the history books as probably the six most
productive years in terms of progressive,
forward-looking state government,” Moe
said.

Council to consider boost in minimum wage
COUNCIL, From page 1
several yearly bumps approved by state
lawmakers two years ago to bring the rate to
$10.10 an hour by 2018.
David Cooper, an analyst for the liberal
Economic Policy Institute, called attempts
to predict the cost of the bill “pure
speculation” and a “total shot in the dark.”
Clarke called the Finance Department’s
analysis “worse than hypothetical” with
“absolutely no basis.”
“They’re creating a dramatic number
which is a way for this administration to
oppose this legislation without saying so,”
she said.
Others have expressed concerns. William H. Cole IV, the director of the
Baltimore Development Corp., wrote to the
council that it “would most likely lead to
increased prices for goods and services,
reduced employment opportunities and
possible relocation or closure of some
businesses.”
The Mayor’s Office of Employment
Development said its YouthWorks summer
jobs program, which gave 8,000 city youth
work this summer, would need an extra
$2.65 million to maintain its size by 2020 if
the bill was enacted.
The Greater Baltimore Committee, the
Downtown Partnership of Baltimore and
the Restaurant Association of Maryland all
opposed the measure.
“Baltimore City doing this in isolation is a
significant challenge and would be a
competitive disadvantage for the city,” said
Donald C. Fry, president and CEO of the
Greater Baltimore Committee.
A spokesman for Rawlings-Blake said
she will sign the bill if it passes the council,
but she would hope to coordinate increases
with officials in neighboring counties.
“The mayor knows that any increase has
a broader economic impact than on just one
jurisdiction and hopes that the conversations around increases are coordinated
regionally or even statewide,” spokesman
Anthony McCarthy wrote in an email.
In Baltimore, opponents say fundamental differences in the workforce compared to those of other cities make the
increase problematic.
Only about a quarter of city residents 25
years or older have at least a bachelor’s
degree. The proportion in San Francisco,
Seattle and the District of Columbia is
upward of 50 percent.
“We have a very unskilled labor force,”
said Councilman James B. Kraft, who
opposes the bill. “It’s easy to get rid of those
people, and easy to change those jobs from
full-time jobs to part-time jobs.”
The rate of increase in Baltimore would
be greater than in other cities.
Clarke’s proposal would raise the minimum wage an average of about 18 percent a
year. In the District of Columbia, the wage is
set to increase about 8 percent annually. In
San Francisco, the increase averages 10
percent a year.
In Seattle, smaller businesses were allowed to increase their wages at a slower
rate than larger ones.
“We aren’t even talking apples and
oranges here,” Kraft said.
Economists on both sides say such a
rapid increase is outside the range of what
has been studied.
“It seems crazy,” said David Neumark,
director of the Center for Economics &
Public Policy at the University of California,
Irvine. “I have no problem calling it
reckless.”
The hike is dramatic but not unprecedented, Cooper said. Santa Fe, N.M., raised
its minimum wage by 65 percent — from
$5.15 to $8.50 an hour — in 2004.
Cooper said the concerns voiced then
were similar to those raised about Baltimore’s bill, but have not materialized in
Santa Fe. The unemployment rate there fell
by about a percentage point in the three
years after the hike, according to the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, and per capita income
increased slightly during that same time
period, according to the U.S. Department of
Commerce.
Neumark, a research associate for the
National Bureau of Economic Research,
said minimum wages are “a very ineffective
way of helping the poor.”
“I think politicians want to be seen doing
something on inequality, and inequality has
gotten worse,” Neumark said. “I don’t know
that we know how to help cities in very poor
circumstances, but the minimum wage is
kind of a cop-out.”
Cooper said a minimum wage increase
isn’t supposed to act as an anti-poverty
measure.
“Just because this policy is not going to
eliminate Baltimore’s poverty problem
doesn’t mean it’s not a good thing to do,” he
said.
Clarke said she set the increase to $15
because it’s close to the amount required to
support a working person in Baltimore, and
also fits the national Fight for $15 movement. She said the bill’s passage could
influence the state to increase the minimum
again.
But the council is split. Members Jim
Kraft, Carl Stokes, Rikki Spector and Helen
Holton told The Baltimore Sun they would
vote against the bill in its current form.
Brandon Scott, Robert Curran and Sharon
Green Middleton said they leaned in favor
of it without fully backing it.
Edward Reisinger said he was skeptical.
Eric Costello, Jack Young, Bill Henry and
Nick Mosby said they do not have a
position.
Pete Welch and Warren Branch did not
respond to multiple requests for comment
via phone and email.
The council’s labor subcommittee is
scheduled to begin reviewing the bill
Tuesday in a work session. Curran, the
committee chair, said he expects the bill to
pass out of committee with amendments,
and hopes for a full council vote by
September.
Clarke said she is optimistic that the
discussion will address “legitimate concerns,” and persuade her colleagues to
support the increase.

3 cops killed, 3 hurt by
gunman in Louisiana
SHOOTING, From page 1
The alleged gunman, who was shot and
killed during the exchange of gunfire, was
later identified as Gavin Long, an AfricanAmerican resident of Kansas City, Mo., who
turned 29 on Sunday and, according to
relatives, was in Baton Rouge celebrating
his birthday.
Long served five years in the Marine
Corps as a data network specialist, from
August 2005 to August 2010. Records
released by the Marine Corps on Sunday
showed that he deployed once to Iraq.
In Kansas City on Sunday police officers,
some with guns drawn, converged on a
house listed as Long’s.
With the circumstances of the shootings
unexplained Sunday night, a community
already numbed found itself searching for
new words to describe its horror and
despair.
“Stop this killing. Stop this killing. Stop
this killing,” said Veda Washington-Abusaleh, the aunt of Alton Sterling, the man
killed by Baton Rouge police July 5.
“That’s how this all started, with bloodshed. We don’t want no more bloodshed. ...
Because at the end of the day, when these
people call these families and they tell them
that their daddies and their mommies not
coming home no more, I know how they
feel, because I got the same phone call,” she
said, breaking down in tears during an
interview Sunday by a TV station.
One of the dead officers is Montrell
Jackson, 32, an African-American, married
and with a baby.
Although his name had not yet been
released by authorities Sunday evening,
multiple sources, including relatives, con-
firmed he was among those killed.
The father of Matthew Gerald, a white
officer, also confirmed Sunday that his
41-year-old married son, the father of two
daughters, was another police officer killed.
Before joining the Baton Rouge Police
Department last year, Gerald served in the
Marines and the Army, according to Ryan
Cabral, a friend who served with him in
Iraq.
Jackson’s sister, Jocelyn, was attending
church when she learned that her little
brother was among the three officers killed.
Her pastor had just asked the congregation
to send prayers to her family.
“I didn’t want to break down in church,
but it was just something I couldn’t hold,”
said Jackson, 49. “He was a wonderful
person. A wonderful person.”
A cousin of Long’s, who spoke to The
Washington Post on the condition of
anonymity because he feared for his job,
said Long was quiet, smart and had recently
written a book about his travels around the
world. The man said that Long, as far as he
knew, had not expressed any particular
outrage over the shootings of black men by
police.
“I can’t see my cousin doing nothing like
that,” he said. “Right now, I’m at a loss for
words.”
Of the shooting, Chris Nassif, president
of the Louisiana Union of Police, a statewide association of municipal police departments, said: “It’s just very senseless and
tragic. “You’re seeing law enforcement
targeted for doing their jobs."
Sunday’s gun battle occurred in an area of
Baton Rouge known as Tara, about five
miles from where Sterling was killed.
HILARY SCHEINUK/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Baton Rouge Police run from the emergency room ramp as a man unrelated to the police
shootings is taken into custody near the entrance of Our Lady Of The Lake Medical Center.
Protesters have gathered there nightly.
It was a sunny, breezy morning in Baton
Rouge when shots were heard around 8:40.
Police reported “officers down” at 8:44,
according to Edmonson. Minutes later, the
alleged gunman was also dead.
President Barack Obama on Sunday
asked the nation to refrain from “overheated” political discourse on the eve of the
Republican and Democratic conventions.

profession ... everyone right now, focus on

country rather than divide it further,” he
Governor weighs releasing ‘fenced off’ funds
SPENDING, From page 1
operating budget,” said Donald F. Norris,
who heads the School of Public Policy at the
University of Maryland Baltimore County.
“This is all symbolic stuff, and it’s political.”
Hogan let the July 1 start of the fiscal year
pass without announcing a decision. Before
this year’s legislative session, the governor
vowed not to spend fenced-off money, but
the committees that craft the budget tried
to make it difficult for him to carry out that
threat.
The money for aging schools is not
spending Hogan opposes. In fact, he
allocated that $6.1 million as part of his
capital budget.
But a Senate committee moved the
money to the operating budget, paying for it
with some of the $80 million it trimmed
from Hogan’s proposed payment to the
state’s Rainy Day Fund. The $1 billion fund,
set aside as a hedge against budget reverses,
is still large enough to maintain the state’s
AAA bond rating, but Hogan wanted to add
more.
To prevent the governor from cherrypicking programs, the senators made it an
all-or-nothing proposition. The House of
Delegates agreed. Now Hogan may choose
to spend all $80 million or none of it.
To complicate the governor’s decision,
the lawmakers put in that basket a mixture
of his favored programs and their own.
If he says no, Hogan would deny funding
for several of his priorities, including aging
schools, a statewide public safety communications system and demolition of part of
the Baltimore City Detention Center that
Hogan closed.
To free the money, Hogan would have to
allow spending on legislative priorities such
as helping local school systems with the
cost of employee pensions and improving
compensation rates for physicians in the
Medicaid program.
The Assembly also fenced off $46 million
for programs including rental housing,
neighborhood revitalization and drinking
Spending in limbo
This is some of the money in the $80 million the legislature has fenced off:
HOGAN PRIORITIES
■ $15 million for repair of state-owned buildings.
■ $9.2 million to build a Public Safety Communication System to let police, fire
departments across the state communicate better in emergencies.
■ $6.5 million to demolish buildings Hogan closed at the Baltimore City Detention
Center.
■ $6 million for farmers — a key Hogan constituency — to plant cover crops to
prevent nutrient runoff into the Chesapeake Bay.
ASSEMBLY PRIORITIES
■ $19 million to help most of the state’s local school systems with the cost of
employee pensions.
■ $14 million to increase the rate of reimbursement for physicians under Medicaid to
96 percent of the rate paid under Medicare.
■ $1 million for the Baltimore Health Department’s Safe Streets program, which
attempts to defuse disputes before they lead to violence.
■ $550,000 for lead remediation in the homes of children treated under Medicaid.
water projects. And there’s another $36
million the legislature cut from Hogan
initiatives and directed to other purposes.
But none of that money is “all or nothing.”
Hogan could fund some programs while
declining others.
The Aging Schools Program is an example of why Hogan’s decisions could be
difficult.
The program pays for middle-range
improvements — usually costing $10,000 to
$300,000 — that likely would have to be
deferred if local school systems had to pay
for them on their own.
For Baltimore — because of its high
proportion of old schools — the program if
fully funded would bring in almost $1.4
million over the next year, making it the
state’s largest recipient of such funds.
Baltimore County, which also has many
older schools, would receive about
$875,000, putting it third in the state.
In Baltimore County, the delayed decision is complicating school officials’ plans
for projects similar to the one at Prettyboy.
The program helps pay for projects that fall
between routine maintenance and major
renovations.
“It fills a niche that is so critical for aging
infrastructure, and we would really be at a
loss if we don’t get those funds,” said Pete
Dixit, executive director of physical facilities for the county school system.
The association of local schools boards
wrote the governor in April urging him to
release money for the program. John R.
Woolums, government affairs director of
the Maryland Association of Boards of
Education, said local school systems feel
caught in the middle.
“We’ve never had the Aging Schools
Program in jeopardy before,” he said. “It has
been a painful pill to swallow.”
But Woolums said school systems are
also sweating the $19 million the legislature
wants to offset pension costs.
“Nineteen million would have gone a
long way to easing that burden as well,”
Woolums said. “It would mean a lot to us for
the governor to un-fence that funding.”
said. “We need to temper our words and
open our hearts — all of us.”
Black activists also expressed outrage at
the Baton Rouge police deaths.
“We’re all grieving. We’re still grieving
the loss of Alton Sterling. We don’t value
any life more than any other life," said Ada
Goodly, an attorney and activist with the
National Lawyers Guild in Baton Rouge,
who had been involved in the recent
protests.
The Associated Press contributed to this
article.
Gene Ransom, chief executive of the
state medical society, said physicians are
waiting nervously to learn whether they
will get $14 million in higher compensation
for Medicaid care. He said increased pay is
critical to keeping doctors in the program to
treat low-income Marylanders.
If doctors drop out, he said, “more and
more folks will end up in the emergency
room and in the end we’ll pay more for that
care.”
Clark said that while the governor has yet
to make up his mind, he opposes the
legislature’s tactics.
“Taking money from the Rainy Day Fund
is a bad idea. It’s short-sighted,” Clark said.
“This all-or-nothing approach for the $80
million is little more than political maneuvering and not sound fiscal policy.”
Sen. Richard S. Madaleno Jr., a Montgomery County Democrat, said the majority party adopted its strategy because of the
governor’s “my way or the highway”
approach to the budget.
“He is unwilling to actually negotiate, so
we had to use this mechanism to make sure
these important projects and programs
move forward,” said Madaleno, vice chairman of the Senate’s budget committee.
Norris said the logical resolution in
divided government would be to spend at
least the $80 million.
“They give him what he wants, he gives
them what they want out of the governor.
It’s called compromise,” he said.
But if Hogan refuses to spend the money,
his political base will still be happy, Norris
said.
“He will just annoy the heck out of the
leadership of the General Assembly,” he
said. Norris added, “They’ll probably take it
out on him later.”
Or they could do so sooner. Hogan has a
$20 million request pending before a
legislative committee to award Sunny Day
Fund money to Northrop Grumman Corp.
A meeting to consider that request had been
set for Thursday but has been postponed by
legislative leaders.

Political priorities over
criminal justice reform
Your latest article highlighting the necessity to renovate the Baltimore City Circuit
Courts (“Baltimore Circuit Court considers
private partnership for long-desired new
facilities,” July 14) was both timely and
eye-opening. As both a political activist
involved in the fight for upgrading these
dilapidated buildings for years, as well as a
state employee subject to these deplorable
conditions on a daily basis; I find it appalling
that the current Rawlings-Blake administration would make an arena, convention
center and soccer complex a greater
priority than upgrading the age-old facilities that house their elected colleagues,
hundreds of employees and thousands of
city residents who are forced to have to
endure such horrendous conditions.
If we are serious about reforming our
criminal justice system, we must begin by
making sure that judges are no longer
subject to having to ride the same elevator
as the convicted felons they just sentenced,
and that citizens performing their civic
duty as jurors aren’t subject to the same dire
conditions as prisoners in a third-world
country. We must get serious about reform
by providing the necessary resources to
upgrade an antiquated computer system
that looks to have been around since the
Reagan administration, which has city
judges still issuing prison orders by way of
carbon copy paper instead of the 21stcentury systems used by surrounding jurisdictions.
It’s time we stop with the political
double-talk and the double-edged sword of
inefficient government, due to misguided
priorities that always seem to put the
desires of a few ahead of the needs of the
masses.

Stand up for racial justice
In light of the deaths in Baltimore of
Freddie Gray and Tyrone West and others
as well as Michael Brown, Tamir Rice,
Sandra Bland, Eric Garner and most
recently of Philando Castile and Alton
Sterling, it is beyond time to say enough is
enough (“Race and police shootings,” July
9). Outrage, anger, sadness, despair — the
emotional responses can be overwhelming.
For those of us who are white, we can easily
choose to not pay attention, to brush the
news reports and our feelings aside and get
on with our day. But then we must be
willing to live with the consequences. How
many deaths does it take? How many lives
lost, whether at the hands of police or from
community or domestic violence, before we
wake up and take a stand? Our lack of action
perpetuates white privilege and white
supremacy in our country. If we do not act
against it, we are complicit in it.
So what can we do? First of all, wake up
and notice the differences in the ways that
white people and people of color are treated
in our society. Believe people of color when
they talk about discrimination and racism
they have encountered. Be brave and have
the sometimes difficult conversations with
other white people — your friends, your
family, your co-workers, your neighbors —
to raise awareness and find ways to act
together to bring about change. Educate
yourself — local groups like Baltimore
Racial Justice Action and Baltimore’s chapter of Showing Up for Racial Justice are
great resources for learning more and
connecting with like-minded people. Demand that our local officials do more to end
police brutality. Baltimore’s recently updated use of force policy is a start. “Building
From the Ground Up: A Toolkit for
Promoting Justice in Policing,” compiled by
the Center for Popular Democracy and
Policy Link has even more steps our city can
take. Locally, we can follow and support
groups like Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle
who are advocating and organizing for
police reform.
What we stand to gain is a strong, vibrant
community where we’re all better off
because we’ve broken free of a society that
has wasted far too much time, money,
resources and energy holding people down.

A terrible loss in Roland
Park
Molly Macauley’s shocking death is so
sad and frightening (“Police seek clues in
fatal stabbing,” July 12).
I did not know her, and yet I feel a great
sense of loss. She was an incredible and
highly educated individual and an avid
environmentalist. There was so much more
for her to add to all our lives.
Walking her two dogs in her secure
Roland Park neighborhood was probably a
nightly activity that most of us take for
granted during our cool Baltimore summer
evenings. This is a terrifying wake-up call
for people like me who assume that we are
safe in our own neighborhoods and have
some measure of security when with our
dogs. I walk my dog usually around 10 p.m.
and live in a gated community but the
gatehouse is unattended.
Molly’s death feels very personal to me.
I’m sure it will spark outrage in the
immediate community and possibly citywide as a pathetic sign of our times. My
heart goes out to her family and friends and
her two rescue dogs, all of whom will miss
her brilliance and be forever saddened by
her loss.

Still a menace
Our view: It’s past time Baltimore cracked down on illegal dirt bikes
B
altimore is famous — or infamous — for the dirt bike
riders who roar through its streets running red lights
while performing high-flying wheelies and other
death-defying stunts. But what has long been tolerated as a
colorful, if illicit, aspect of local outlaw culture more recently has
taken a darker turn. Besides terrorizing pedestrians and other
drivers, riders are killing and injuring themselves as well as
passersby with their scofflaw antics, and gun crimes associated
with the bikes are rising too. Dirt bikes are no longer just a noisy
inconvenience and nuisance in traffic but an increasingly serious
public safety threat as well.
That’s why police Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis
announced the creation of a specialized task force last week
charged with investigating crimes involving the illegal bikes. Mr.
Davis called the riders “gun-toting criminals who travel
throughout the city recklessly, lawlessly and with impunity.” That
a mouthful that might have sounded needlessly alarmist a few
years ago. But today it’s a view that’s widely shared among
law-enforcement officials and a public fed up with young riders
notorious for thumbing their noses at the law.
In just the last few weeks there have been a string of serious
incidents involving collisions between dirt bikes and pedestrians
or other vehicles. One rider was badly injured when he crashed
head first through the windshield of a parked car. A pedestrian
struck by a careening biker while crossing the street was likewise
nearly killed. And in several cases accidents have led to violence
or the threat of it. A military veteran who accidentally hit an ATV
was later pulled from his car and beaten by the rider’s
companions; a female driver involved in a minor fender bender
with a bike was threatened at gunpoint by its owner. None of
those incidents squared with the oft-heard claim that dirt bikes
are mostly just harmless fun.
Until now, most of the conversation about dirt bikes has
focused on their recreational appeal. At one point city officials
even considered the idea of building a dedicated park where
riders could show off their prowess without endangering the
public. For a variety of reasons that was never a practical
alternative. For instance, how would riders transport their bikes
to the facility if they couldn’t legally drive there on the streets?
Moreover, half of biking’s appeal lies in its scofflaw ethic; would
riders give that up even if they had such a facility?
All those question have been superseded, however, by a
growing element of criminality in the bikers’ ranks. In recent
weeks homicide detectives have investigated two separate
incidents in which riders were fatally shot while sitting on their
bikes. There have also been a number of hit-and-run encounters
in which riders have fled the scene of accidents. Last week, police
displayed several illegal bikes seized from riders or from the

occupants of the so-called “trail cars” that accompany them on
the streets to photograph their stunts. They also showed a video
of a young rider carefully wiping the shell cases of bullets before
loading them into his gun so police couldn’t recover his
fingerprints as evidence.
Police say they can only speculate as to the reasons why riders
appear to be arming themselves. What they do know, however, is
that the guns are illegal and that they potentially pose a threat to
anyone who encounters their owners, including police officers.
Getting those illegal guns of the streets will be as high or higher a
priority for the new task force as seizing any illegal bikes they
find.
For two years running, police officials have promised to crack
down on illegal dirt bikers and their riders and wound up without
much to show for their efforts. What’s different this year is that
the department has established a dedicated unit of four officers to
tackle the problem in close cooperation with prosecutors from
the city state’s attorney’s office. The team will focus on gathering
intelligence about where illegal bikes are being sold, stored,
gassed up, repaired and ridden. It’s almost impossible to believe
the department hasn’t launched such a coordinated effort until
now, but better late than never.
One thing that won’t change is the department’s long-standing
policy of not chasing dirt bikes through the streets when police
encounter them. Officials say that puts innocent bystanders and
other drivers at far too great a risk of serious injury or death. But
it’s clear the police can’t just keep doing the same things they’ve
done in the past and expect a different result. The department
owes it to the community to get it right this time.
The Trump-Pence platform
Our view: Republicans are not only steering their party to the Midwest, they’re
turning back the clock as well
D
onald Trump’s decision to name Indiana Gov. Mike
Pence as his running mate Friday after a week of visiting
candidates and their loved ones (like those late-season
hometown episodes of “The Bachelor”) triggered the usual kind
of instant analysis vice presidential picks get. One could hear the
collective sigh of relief from Republican leadership on Capitol
Hill as far away as the Inner Harbor — Governor Pence is one of
them. Hurrah for them.
But for all the attention paid to the No. 2 post — and let’s face
it, with such strong personalities on the top of the ticket this year,
Democratic and Republican, that selection has probably never
been less relevant to the general public — easily lost is another
major decision. It may not have received nearly as much
attention as the veep stakes, but the GOP has been crafting a
party platform in advance of their national convention this week
in Cleveland, and it’s a doozy.
It’s one thing for Mr. Trump to choose a fellow middle-aged
white male (albeit a blander, less vulgar version than himself )
for his ticket, it’s another to accept a platform that appears just as
lifted out of the “Mad Men” era. The authors clearly haven’t
witnessed any social change of the last decade or more they
wouldn’t want reversed. So much for that 2012 post-Mitt
Romney view that the Republican Party needs to broaden its
base and appeal to minority and non-traditional voters.
How anti-21st-century is it? The platform would reverse the
2012 Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage, encourage
Bible instruction in public schools, bar women from serving in
combat roles, view pornography as a public health “crisis,”
support state laws to restrict transgender bathroom rights and
repeal all taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood no matter to
what purpose that money would be used.
LGBT groups have already correctly identified the party
platform as the most hostile toward their cause of any in the
party’s 162-year history. It’s as if the committee of delegates that
crafted the document were so distrustful of their presidential
candidate on social issues (perhaps because he once tweeted his

David Furnish, not to mention favored a woman’s right to
choose) that they felt the need to set even stricter boundaries
than usual.
Some of the platform changes from years past are obvious
efforts to align the GOP with Mr. Trump’s peculiar world view.
There is a call for an actual “wall” covering the entirety of the
nation’s southern border, and it uses the same kind of anti-trade
language that the candidate espouses calling for agreements that
“put America first.” Such a wholesale rejection of the party’s
historical support for free trade may not be shocking, but it’s still
troubling to see the same “America first” slogan intended to keep
the United States out of World War II in 1940 promoting
isolationism in 2016.
The party platform also offers up a wholesale rejection of
climate change science, going so far as to recommend “clean”
coal, as if such a thing actually existed and the world wasn’t
currently facing a worsening environmental crisis from excess
carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
While carbon capture is theoretically possible (essentially
storing carbon dioxide generated by burning coal underground
and thus making it “clean”), it certainly hasn’t been proven
economically viable. And, of course, if one rejects climate change
science, why bother protecting the planet from rising sea levels
and other ill effects of global warming at all?
No Republican candidate for public office, including Mr.
Trump, is bound by the platform, of course, but it’s regarded as
an important insight to the party’s core beliefs. If so, the party’s
core is stranded somewhere in the 1950s when it was the norm
to deny rights to gays and lesbians, and “conversion therapy”
was considered the best response to such inclinations (yes, the
platform actually supports conversion therapy). Missing is any
evidence that the GOP is interested in broadening its appeal to
women, Hispanics or blacks, the groups that Mr. Romney failed
to attract in sufficient numbers four years ago. This isn’t your
parents’ GOP, it’s your grandparents’.

Musical pathways to success
By Fred Bronstein
O
ver the past year, there has been
much public attention focused on
the unmet needs and lack of
options for Baltimore’s youth, and rightly
so. It’s a huge and critical challenge. The
simple fact is that the systemic issues that
have marginalized so many of our city’s
young people require many different kinds
of solutions. As our city and community
look to find and craft those solutions, the
impact of music programs demonstrates
the difference that music and the arts can
make in the lives of young people.
Take for example the case of 14-year-old
Nyshae Cheatham, who boarded a Grand
Rapids-bound flight at BWI this past
weekend with her saxophone, dreams of a
life in music and the support of an entire
network of arts education programs serving
Baltimore youth. She is one of over a dozen
students from Baltimore City whose hard
work, talent and dedication have earned
them scholarships to attend Summer Arts
Camp at the prestigious Interlochen Center
for the Arts in Michigan, far from her West
Baltimore home.
Nyshae’s path to Interlochen began in a
Baltimore City Public Schools music program, then on to the Baltimore Symphony
Orchestra’s OrchKids, followed by entrance
into the Peabody Preparatory’s Tuned-In
program, which provides gifted young
students who would not otherwise have the
means with tuition-free opportunities to
study an instrument. This fall she will
enroll at the Baltimore School for the Arts.
These and other complementary programs
together comprise a pipeline of arts education in Baltimore that is creating a musical
pathway for city schoolkids — in some cases
leading to college and professional careers
that they otherwise could only have
imagined.
The combined success of these and other
programs can be counted in the individual
stories of students like Nyshae and like
Brandon Woody, a trumpeter who grew up
in East Baltimore and is one of only five jazz
students recently selected as a fellow at the
Dave Brubeck Institute at the University of
the Pacific. And like Osi Atikpoh, the child
of Nigerian immigrants, a current Baltimore Scholar at the Peabody Conservatory,
a BSA and Tuned-In alumnus and current
teacher for OrchKids and Tuned-In.
Success can also be counted in numbers.
OrchKids and Tuned-In had more students
accepted by Interlochen this summer — 13
— than any other comparable programs in
the country. And seven Tuned-In/OrchKids students were recently awarded
positions with the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s National Take-a-Stand Festival,
receiving full tuition scholarships to partic-
JAMIE MCCARTHY/GETTY IMAGES
ipate in summer music camps at the Longy
School of Music of Bard College and the
Aspen Music Festival.
The academic results are equally impressive. OrchKids participants are recording
more regular attendance and better grades
and test scores than Baltimore City Public
Schools students’ average. And all of the
Peabody Tuned-In students from the
program’s first two graduating classes
matriculated to college, far exceeding the
44 percent citywide average. Colleges of
choice included Oberlin, Wellesley, the
Peabody Conservatory, SUNY Purchase,
the University of Maryland, the New
England Conservatory, Towson University
and more, with many of the students
pursuing music studies.
The simple fact is that music and the arts
provide opportunity, focus, direction, a
sense of purpose and the chance to develop
a lifelong passion. It’s a matter of access,
and while we can’t change it for the world,
we can change it right here in Baltimore.
Collectively we can provide that opportunity, that purpose, that chance to fall in love
with music in a way that will be a
life-changing experience and provide a
path to a positive, meaningful future. Just
ask Nyshae, Brandon and Osi.

claims that the only thing she did not do
was have “sex with a boyfriend.”)
Ms. Schumer, on the other hand, got up
early and went to Ms. Wintour’s office at
Vogue, where she directed the fashion and
accessories editors to change all clothes for
an upcoming photo shoot — aiming for
comfort as opposed to style.
Needless to say, a strange tableau
emerged.
British writer/professor David Lodge
has written several amusing and bestselling novels on the academic exchange
between British English professor “Philip
Swallow” (a thinly disguised version of Mr.
Lodge) and an American English professor
“Morris Zapp” (who many — including the
character Morris Zapp — say was based on
former Hopkins professor Stanley Fish).
The differences between their heritage,
their ideas and their lifestyles are often
hysterically funny.
The first novel in the series is called
“Changing Places.”
One of the many reasons we read novels
is to expose ourselves to others’ lives.
Unfortunately, many still think that most
people are like them and their friends. For
others, the grass is always greener; however, getting closer to different people often
proves the opposite.
Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor
Elie Wiesel recently died at 87. His
acclaimed memoir “Night,” which is often
hard to read for the atrocities described,
but necessary to understand man’s inhumanity to man, has become part of the
curriculum in many high schools and
colleges.
Knowing people whose lives are different from ours, develops empathy, a trait
sorely lacking in many people today. For
example, how much more footage do we
need to see on TV of uprooted men,
women and children — people starving for
food and water — fleeing from violent
countries, yet with no other place to go,
before we feel something for them?
Why would we, as a democratic country
started by immigrants and strengthened by
immigrants, want to prohibit new immigrants from entering? A
s for the terrorism argument — think
Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols
(Oklahoma bombers), Eric Rudolph (1996
Olympic games in Atlanta), unibomber
Ted Kaczynski, Adam Lanza (Connecticut
schoolchildren shooter) not to mention
those who killed innocent abortion physicians — and the list goes on.
All were Americans; all were murderers.
Often, however, it is not so much
ethnicity, religion or race that divides us
but socio-economic class. Some 60 to 70
years ago, the middle-and upper-middle
classes left the so-called crowded, crimeridden cities for the suburbs. Then,
DOONESBURY BY GARRY TRUDEAU
approximately 30 to 40 years later, their
children grown, those who could afford to,
moved back to the cities to enjoy the
proximity of culture and entertainment.
The younger, more affluent men and
women — that is, the young professionals
began moving into so-called poorer city
areas, “gentrifying” those areas, while
forcing many long-time poorer resident to
move — often to projects, to Section 8
housing, isolating them even more.
Actress, playwright, NYU professor and
National Humanities Medal awardee
Anna Deavere Smith, originally from
Baltimore, has come up with one way to
solve the “us versus them” dilemma. In her
one-woman show, “Notes From The
Field,” she plays multiple parts in order to
examine the chasm between the rich and
the poor.
At the end of some performances, Ms.
Smith invites members of the audience to
fill out pledge cards offering to walk a child
to school, to volunteer for a social service
organization or to donate money to related
research projects.
Whereas not everyone is able to physically change places with someone who is
different from him or her, we should try to
be able to imaginatively change places, to
put ourselves in someone else’s shoes, so to
speak, which can serve to make us better
people, a better nation.

City Council
should oversee
police disciplinary
board composition
By David A. Plymyer
D
uring this past legislative session,
the Maryland General Assembly
made changes to the Law Enforcement Officers’ Bill of Rights that will
allow civilians to sit on police department
hearing boards starting Oct. 1. What
lawmakers didn’t do, however, was remove the composition of trial boards from
the collective bargaining process.
So now, the Baltimore Police Department union is reportedly refusing to sign
new collective bargaining agreements
with the city to replace those that expired
June 30 at least in part because members
of the union don’t want civilians involved,
despite the fact that citizen participation
could improve transparency and community relations with officers — something
the BPD sorely needs.
And so, negotiations continue, along
with a lot of hand-wringing. But there
may be another option no one is talking
about: It appears the City Council has the
power to end the practice of submitting
the composition of hearing boards to
collective bargaining and therefore free
officials from having to go hat in hand to
Lodge No. 3 of the Fraternal Order of
Police.
State law does not require the composition to be submitted to collective
bargaining, providing only that it “may”
be negotiated. The use of the word “may”
rather than “shall” makes clear that the
decision to negotiate the method of
forming a board rests with the city. And
the council has the power under the city
charter to place reasonable limits on the
scope of collective bargaining.
There already is an ordinance enacted
pursuant to that power reserving to the
city the “exclusive right” to “suspend,
demote, discharge, or take any other
appropriate disciplinary action against its
employees for just cause and in accordance with the provisions relating to Civil
Service of [the city] Charter and other
applicable laws.” The “exclusive rights” of
management should be expanded to
include the right to decide upon the
method of forming a hearing board under
the LEOBR.
When the LEOBR was enacted in 1972
it revolutionized police discipline by
taking away the authority of police chiefs
to initiate disciplinary action against their
officers and turning it over to hearing
boards consisting of other officers appointed by the police chief. The FOP
eventually persuaded the General Assembly to allow cities and counties to
negotiate “alternative” methods of selection intended to dilute the authority of
chiefs over the selection of members.
Alternative methods were negotiated by
the city and Lodge No. 3 that did as
intended, and the quality of the boards
and their decisions deteriorated accordingly.
In the “Strategic Plan for Improvement” issued by the BPD in November
2013 the department observed that, although recent improvements had been
made, BPD hearing boards had “a bias
toward inappropriately lenient verdicts
and inappropriate ‘not guilty’ rulings.
These biases occurred largely because
officers of similar rank to the accused
worried that they would endanger themselves if they were to render a strong
verdict should they themselves be accused of similar offenses.” Civilian members would not have the same concerns
and therefore may not have the same
biases.
Civilian membership on hearing boards
is not a panacea but is something that a
great number of citizens believe is necessary to restore trust in the police disciplinary process.
Those citizens have the right to have
the issue of citizen membership decided
in the legislative arena where they can be
heard rather than through a collective
bargaining process from which they are
excluded.
The City Council is going to have to step
to the plate and take back decisionmaking authority that it never should
have surrendered.

County attorney in 2014 and also served

BILL O’LEARY/WASHINGTON POST
Microbiologist Patrick McGann, left, and his team at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research have found evidence of a dangerous antibiotic-resistant gene called mcr-1 in E. coli.
‘Slow catastrophe’ as golden
age of antibiotics nears end
Disease-causing
microbes have
evolved to resist
even the most
potent meds
By Melissa Healy
Los Angeles Times
BETHESDA, Md. — In early
April, experts at a military lab
outside Washington intensified
their search for evidence that a
dangerous new biological threat
had penetrated the nation’s borders. They didn’t have to hunt long
before they found it.
On May 18, a team working at
the Walter Reed Army Institute of
Research in Maryland had its first
look at a sample of the bacterium
Escherichia coli, taken from a
49-year-old woman in Pennsylvania. She had a urinary tract infection with a disconcerting knack
for surviving the assaults of antibiotic medications. Her sample was
one of six from across the country
delivered to the lab of microbiologist Patrick McGann.
Within hours, a preliminary
analysis deepened concern at the
lab. Over the next several days,
more sophisticated genetic sleuthing confirmed McGann’s worst
fears.
There, in the bacterium’s DNA,
was a gene dubbed mcr-1. Its
presence made the pathogen impervious to the venerable antibiotic colistin.
More ominously, the gene’s
presence on a plasmid — a tiny
mobile loop of DNA that can be
readily snapped off and attached to
other bacteria — suggested that it
could readily jump to other E. coli
bacteria or to entirely different
forms of disease-causing organisms. That would make them
impervious to colistin as well.
It was a milestone public health
officials have been fearing for
years. In a steady march, diseasecausing microbes have evolved
ways to evade the bulwark of
medications used to treat bacterial
infections. For a variety of those
illnesses, only colistin continued to
work every time. Now, this last line
of defense had been breached as
well.
A second U.S. case of E. coli with
the mcr-1 resistance gene was
reported this month in the journal
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy. Researchers are still working to determine whether it, or any
of 18 other samples from around
the world, contained the gene on
an easy-to-spread plasmid.
The golden age of antibiotics
appears to be coming to an end, its
demise hastened by a combination
of medical, social and economic
factors. For decades, these drugs
made it easy for doctors to treat
FOTOLIA
The gene was discovered in a Pennsylvania woman’s infection. A second U.S. case has been reported.
infections and injuries. Now, common ailments are regaining the
power to kill.
Harvard University infectious
disease epidemiologist William
Hanage cautioned that “we will
not be flying back into the Dark
Ages” overnight. Hospitals are
improving their infection control,
and public health experts are
getting better at tracking new
threats. But in a race against
nature, he said, the humans are
losing ground.
“We’re seeing more drug-resistant infections,” Hanage said. “And
people will die.”
In 1928, British bacteriologist
Alexander Fleming discovered
that an errant penicillin mold
growing in one of his petri dishes
had the power to kill staphylococcus, a type of bacteria that causes
pneumonia, skin infections and
food poisoning. It took scientists,
industrialists and the pressures of a
world war to convert the mold into
a mass-produced medicine, which
was ready in time for troops to
pack on D-Day.
More than 100 antibiotic compounds have been introduced
since. But almost as soon as they
were given to patients, scientists
began finding evidence that disease-causing bacteria were developing resistance to these new
wonder drugs.
Bacteria meet, mate, compete
and evolve inside living bodies.
When an antibiotic is added to the
mix, only the strongest survive.
Humans have accelerated this
natural process by indiscriminately prescribing antibiotics and
by routinely feeding the drugs to
livestock, scientists say. Multiply
the number of humans and animals taking these drugs and you
multiply the opportunities for antibiotic-resistant strains to emerge.
Until very recently, few made
the connection between antibiotic
use in individual cases and the
emergence of antibiotic resistance,
said Dr. Susan Bleasdale, an infection-control expert at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Patients with earaches, sinus pressure and sore throats demanded
antibiotics, and physicians tended
to oblige.
The results have been deadly.
Each year, more than 2 million
people in the U.S. are infected with
a bacterium that has become
resistant to one or more antibiotic
medications designed to kill it,
according to the federal Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention. At least 23,000 people die as a
direct result of antibiotic-resistant
infections, and many more die
from other conditions that were
complicated by an antibiotic-resistant infection, the agency says.
As medicines such as tetracycline, erythromycin and vancomycin lost much of their effectiveness,
colistin continued to overwhelm
trouble-making bacteria such as
salmonella, Klebsiella and E. coli.
Colistin is toxic to the human
kidney, and doctors largely
stopped using it in the 1970s when
safer medications became available. But now that so many antibiotics have lost their ability to
vanquish E. coli and other bacterial
invaders, colistin has become the
only hope for some desperate
patients.
The slow, steady march of
antibiotic resistance doesn’t cause
people to bleed to death in the
streets, the way the Ebola virus
does. It doesn’t cause heart-rending birth defects, as the Zika virus
does.
And it rarely makes headlines. A
survey released in June by the
Infectious Diseases Society of
America found that only 30 percent of Americans believe that
antibiotic resistance is a significant
problem for public health.
Yet, officials at the World Health
Organization warn that gonorrhea
“may soon become untreatable”
because of growing resistance to
the antibiotic ceftriaxone, a member of the cephalosporin class. The
WHO also notes that extensively
drug-resistant tuberculosis is now
circulating in 100 countries and
that worldwide resistance to carbapenem antibiotics has weakened
physicians’ last line of attack
against life-threatening intestinal
enterobacteriaceae infections.
“It’s a slow catastrophe,” said
Army Col. Emil Lesho, director of
the Defense Department’s Multidrug-resistant Organism Repository and Surveillance Network.
The problem goes beyond treating infections. As bacterial resistance grows, Lesho said, “we’re all
at risk of losing our access” to
medical miracles we’ve come to
take for granted: elective surgeries,
joint replacements, organ transplants, cancer chemotherapies.
These treatments give bacteria an
opportunity to hitch a ride on a
catheter or an unwashed hand and
invade an already vulnerable patient.
The struggle to sustain the
effectiveness of antibiotics is a
never-ending arms race. If human-
kind were regularly finding new
anti-microbial agents and turning
them into medicines, there might
be less cause for worry. But
researchers haven’t identified a
new class of antibiotic medication
since 1987. As a result, while
bacteria have continuously evolved
new ways to thwart antibiotics, the
medicines have not gained new
mechanisms to fight back.
The economics of drug development are partly to blame.
To offset the millions of dollars
they pour into research, clinical
trials and the Food and Drug
Administration approval process,
pharmaceutical companies aim to
develop blockbuster drugs, said Dr.
Anthony Fauci, director of the
National Institute of Allergies and
Infectious Diseases. An ideal candidate would be used by millions of
people every day for the rest of
their lives, like pills to keep cholesterol in check.
Antibiotics won’t pay the
freight. They should be prescribed
sparingly and only used for about a
week. They could be rendered
obsolete at any time by resistance
genes. Worst of all, they compete in
a field of inexpensive generics.
Without government policies
that encourage investment in the
antibiotics, “there’s very little incentive” for companies to do it
themselves, Fauci said.
Other approaches can help.
Under Fauci, the NIAID is funding
the development of tests that
would speed the diagnosis of
infections and prompt more careful use of antibiotics by physicians
and hospitals.
New vaccines to prevent bacterial infections are under study, and
existing vaccines could be more
widely used. The use of bacteriakilling viruses — an approach
called phage therapy that revives
an idea largely abandoned in the
1930s — is getting a second look.
The Pennsylvania patient
whose infection was impervious to
colistin was able to beat back the
bacteria in her urinary tract with
the help of other antibiotics.
Others have not been so lucky.
Hospital patients infected by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are twice
as likely to die as those infected by
the nonresistant strains of the
same bacteria, studies show.
Experts say it’s just a matter of
time before other disease-causing
bacteria pick up the fateful mcr-1
gene. Since its discovery was first
reported in China in November
2015, it has spread to human,
animal, food and environmental
bacteria on every continent.
“It’s not apocalyptic until it is,”
said Peter Pitts, president of the
Center for Medicine in the Public
Interest and former associate commissioner of the FDA. “Shame on
us if we wait till bodies are in the
street.”

4 charged in escape of
Florida murder suspect
By Mike Clary and
Tonya Alanez
Sun-Sentinel
AP
Ahead of Monday’s meeting, grandmothers in Durban, South Africa, Saturday demand
more government support as caregivers for children orphaned by the AIDS epidemic.
AIDS conference shows
S. Africa’s dramatic turn
By Cara Anna
Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG —
The first time the world
went to South Africa for a
conference on AIDS, the
country’s leader shocked
attendees by questioning
whether HIV really caused
the disease.
Then-President Thabo
Mbeki walked out of the
room as an 11-year-old boy
with AIDS addressed the
crowd in response, pleading for treatment and
understanding in a region
where the epidemic was
taking its harshest toll.
“Don’t be afraid of us.
We are all the same,” Nkosi
Johnson said. He died the
next year.
South Africa’s official attitude to AIDS at that
meeting in 2000 and for
several years afterward set
back the country so badly
that more than 330,000
people died because the
government withheld HIV
drugs, a Harvard study
found.
On Monday, the return
of hundreds of AIDS researchers and activists to
Durban will highlight how
radically the country’s outlook has changed.
South Africa now is a
global proving ground for
treatment and prevention,
including a study of an
experimental HIV vaccine
set to begin later this year.
Today, the country says
its HIV drug treatment
program is the largest in the
world. Life expectancy,
which sank as the epidemic
grew, rebounded from 57.1
years in 2009 to 62.9 years
in 2014. And President Jacob Zuma has publicly
tested for HIV to push back
against stigma.
But South Africa still
leads the world in infections, with 6.8 million people living with HIV. Only
half receive treatment.
“The government is trying (its) best,” said Charity
Mathe, who lives with dozens of mothers and children affected by HIV at
Nkosi’s Haven, a Johannesburg-based project
named for the boy who
challenged the president in
2000.
More solutions are

Gates warned an audience

$5 billion in Africa over the
next five years.
Sunday night. “If we fail to
act, all the hard-earned
gains made in HIV in subSaharan Africa over the last
15 years could be reversed.”
South Africa now wants
to double the number of
people getting treatment,
part of a global goal to have
90 percent of infected people on treatment by 2020.
In the Johannesburg
community of Alexandra,
one project is taking on that
challenge by trying to make
drug delivery convenient.
What looks like ATM

FORT LAUDERDALE,
Fla. — Four people have
been arrested and charged
with helping a murder suspect pull off a daring escape from a Florida courthouse Friday in a wellplanned operation that included a fake police uniform and twins acting as
accomplices, authorities
said.
But Dayonte Resiles, the
21-year-old accused of
stabbing a woman to death,
remained on the loose Sunday.
Broward County Sheriff
Scott Israel said Resiles’
18-year-old girlfriend, LaQuay Stern, parked her
silver BMW under a bridge
next to the Broward
County Courthouse on Friday, where she waited with
Winston Russell, 22.
Meanwhile, two 17-yearold twin brothers went into
the courtroom where Resiles was awaiting a hearing on whether he would
face the death penalty in
his upcoming trial on
charges that he murdered
Jill Halliburton Su, a member of the Halliburton business family, during a home
invasion robbery almost
two years ago.
As Resiles slipped out of
his handcuffs and ankle
shackles and broke for the
door, Israel says at least one
of the twins coughed into a
cellphone to signal Stern
and Russell that he was on
his way.
Resiles, while in the hallway, shed his jail jumpsuit,
fled out a courthouse door
and into Stern’s car, Israel
said. There, Russell gave
him clothes and kept for
himself in a bag a generic
police uniform, Israel said.
The uniform’s purpose is
unknown, Israel said.
Stern and Russell then
drove Resiles to an apartment from which he disappeared, Israel said.

$20,000 are being

capture.
“The fact that
Resiles remains at Resiles
large tells me
there are more people aiding and abetting him in his
escape,” Israel said during
a news conference.
He said that the manhunt for the suspected
killer was being hampered
by people in the community who have failed to cooperate with authorities.
In custody are Stern of
Palm Bay; Russell, of Sunrise; and twin brothers
from West Palm Beach.
Stern and Russell were
taken into custody late Saturday in Deerfield Beach,
according to the Broward
Sheriff’s Office.
The brothers were arrested in West Palm Beach.
According to arrest
documents, the escape was
planned during several
phone calls and visits Resiles had with Stern and
Russell.
The documents say
Stern and Russell confessed and laid out the plan
to investigators.

Syrian soldiers block road to
rebel-held parts of Aleppo
BEIRUT — Syrian government forces closed the
only road leading into and
out of rebel-held parts of
the northern city of Aleppo
on Sunday, besieging hundreds of thousands of people and giving President
Bashar Assad’s forces one
of their biggest successes
since the five-year conflict
began.
Sunday’s push raised
worries among the city’s
civilian population of a
humanitarian crisis as
many feared food and
medicine will run out in
Aleppo within a short time.
The siege marks the
biggest victory for the government in Aleppo since
rebels captured parts of
the city in the summer of
2012. Aleppo, Syria’s former commercial center
and the country’s largest
city, has been divided and
contested since then.
Aleppo and its suburbs
have seen intense fighting
in recent months, with
Syrian troops and their
allies advancing with the
aid of Russian airstrikes.
Earlier this year the government launched a largescale offensive that captured much of the city’s
northern outskirts.
The capture of the road
came as Russia and the
United States, who support rival parties in the
conflict, are negotiating a
possible military partner-
ship over Syria. Both countries have been trying to
end the conflict in Syria,
now in its sixth year.
An eventual government victory in Aleppo
would be a major turning
point in the conflict in
favor of Assad.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights said government
forces and members of
Lebanon’s Hezbollah
group reached the Castello
road early Sunday. Government forces reached a
point where they could fire

Report: Al-Qaida commander in Mali dies in raid
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast
— A group that monitors
online extremist activity
says al-Qaida’s North Africa branch has reported the
death of a commander in
Mali.
The SITE Intelligence
Group on Sunday quoted a
statement from al-Qaida in
the Islamic Maghreb say-
ing Abu Bakr al-Shinqiti
was killed during a raid on
a Malian army barracks
near the border with Burkina Faso. SITE said he
was Tunisian.
The statement did not
specify the date or location
of the raid, nor did it report
any Malian casualties.
On July 10, an official in
Mali’s Koro region near the
Burkina Faso border said
gunmen had killed two
Malian soldiers in a raid on
a military checkpoint.
Northern Mali was occupied in 2012 by al-Qaida
and other jihadist groups
before a French-led military operation drove them
from cities and towns.
DUBAI, United Arab
Emirates — Saudi Arabia’s
guardianship system,
which bars women from
traveling abroad, obtaining
a passport, marrying or
exiting prison without the
consent of a male relative,
remains the most significant impediment to realizing women’s rights in the
kingdom, according to a
report released Sunday by
a leading human rights
group.
The Human Rights
Watch study takes on increasing significance as the
kingdom works to implement its “Vision 2030” and
“National Transformation
Plan” to wean the country
off its dependence on oil,
including government targets to boost women’s participation in the workforce.
The report also comes
just seven months after
Saudi women were allowed the right to run and
vote for the first time in the
country’s only local elections.

BRITISH OPEN
A classic duel ends with
Stenson’s classic round
Henrik Stenson kept hitting the best shots of his life, one
after another, because there was no other way to beat Phil
Mickelson in a British Open duel that ranked among the
best ever in golf.
Stenson’s final stroke Sunday was a 20-foot birdie putt
on the 18th hole at Royal Troon — his 10th birdie of the
Mickelson
round — which give him an 8-under 63 to match Johnny
Miller for the lowest closing round by a major champion.
Stenson finished at 20-under 264, the lowest 72-hole score ever in a major.
Mickelson, a runner-up for the 11th time in a major, shot a 65 and posted a score
(267) that would have won all but two Opens over more than a century.

Bundy gets ‘ambushed’
In first major league
start, he allows four

In his first major league start Sunday, Dylan Bundy gave up three home runs in 31⁄3 innings, as many as he had allowed in 38 relief innings
this season. “Had a good fastball, but the command of it wasn’t there like I wanted it to be and they took advantage of it,” Bundy said.
ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. — Dylan Bundy’s first major league start Sunday against
the Tampa Bay Rays was met with
extraordinary anticipation.
Manager Buck Showalter acknowledged
sensing a buzz inside the Orioles clubhouse
in the days leading
up to Bundy’s first

more than ever, it
also served as a reminder that there are several lessons the
23-year-old will learn as he progresses
toward his future as a big league starter.
“Just like when he first started out, [he
had] some scuffles in the bullpen, some
good [results] and some bad,” Showalter
said. “And then his last three or four [were
good] so it was time for the next step. He’s a
smart guy. He’ll learn. He’s competitive. It’s
kind of like Kevin Gausman. You learn and
you go forward.”
Bundy allowed four runs on three home
runs over 31⁄3 innings — as many homers as
he allowed in 38 relief innings this season —

Anti-doping leader: Russian probe
has not been compromised
By Eddie Pells
Associated Press
Suggestions that the release of draft
letters urging Russia’s total ban from the
Olympics have compromised the investigation into Russian doping are nonsense, an
international anti-doping leader said Sunday.
The Institute of National Anti-Doping
Agencies is one of a handful of anti-doping
and athletes’ groups to draft letters calling
for the ban. They plan to send the letters to
the International Olympic Committee only
if the investigation, due out today, reveals
evidence of state-sponsored doping
throughout Russian sports.
A group of Olympic leaders, including
IOC members and swimming’s international federation, have released statements
suggesting that the draft letters have
undermined the credibility of investigator
Richard McLaren’s report.
“It is very disappointing to see prominent
Olympic stakeholders attempting to get
another family member banned from the
Olympic Games in this rather underhand
way,” said Spyros Capralos, president of
Greece’s Olympic committee.
But iNADO CEO Joseph de Pencier said
his organization has neither communicated
with McLaren nor tried to influence his
work; he said he knew of no iNADO
members’ contacting McLaren, either.
The weekend back-and-forth about the
draft letters illustrates the stakes of McLaren’s report and the IOC’s reaction to it.
Anti-doping leaders and groups of ath-
letes are calling for a full Russian ban from
the coming Olympics in Rio de Janeiro if
McLaren’s report substantiates and expands on preliminary findings that already
have been released. Meanwhile, IOC President Thomas Bach says a balance must be
struck between “collective responsibility
and individual justice.”
Preliminary findings from the report,
released in June as part of a probe into the
Russian track team, which already has been
suspended from the games, said there was
“mandatory state-directed manipulation of
laboratory analytical results operating within”the Moscowanti-doping labfromatleast
2011 through the summer of 2013. Those
findings also said Russia’s “Ministry of Sport
advised the laboratory which of its adverse
findings it could report to WADA, and
which it had to cover up.”
The planned release of the report today
comes 18 days before the start of the
Summer Olympics.
A statement sent Sunday by swimming’s
governing body, FINA, said the iNADO and
other letters were “based on the findings of
theMcLarenReport,whichismeanttohave
been independent and confidential. Such
breaches of confidentiality and the perception of a breach of independence of the
report undermine its credibility.”
Zlatko Matesa, president of Croatia’s
Olympic Committee, said the “premature”
movement to ban Russia “is not in the
Olympic spirit and casts a shadow over the
integrity of the McLaren report.”
But dePencier said iNADO had no more
information than anyone else.

Maryland earned a 13-5 victory over the Mid-Atlantic in the rain-shortened Mid-Atlantic High

Anne Arundel County on Saturday. Archbishop
Spalding had a Crab Claw Classic-best four players on the Maryland team. All four players — Nick
Vermillion, Justin Pelletreau, Peter Godrick
and Nick Benitez — contributed in Maryland’s
11-run third inning that turned a 4-2 deficit into a
13-4 lead. Pelletreau was hit by a pitch to start the
inning, Benitez, who was named Maryland’s top
fielder for his performance at Friday’s combine,
walked and Godrick singled to load the bases. All
three would score. Vermillion singled in a run and
then scored on Jack Glock’s three-run, insidethe-park home run that capped the 11-run rally.
Chesapeake senior Roland Siwinski made his
second straight appearance in the 14th annual
game, pitching a scoreless inning and hitting a
two-run single in the third. Severn’s Jordan
Mathis also had a bases-loaded walk in the third.
The game was suspended in the top of the fourth
inning because of lightning and ended early because of poor field conditions brought by heavy

TROON, Scotland — Phil Mickelson can
count the heartaches and disappointments.
He can second-guess himself for his shots
on the 18th hole at Winged Foot in 2006 or
his poor wedge play down the stretch at
Merion in 2013.
In his mind, those were U.S. Open titles
that he frittered away.
On Sunday in the British Open at Royal
Troon, Mickelson shot a bogey-free 6under-par 65 and lost to the round of a
lifetime by someone else.
Henrik Stenson’s 8-under 63 tied Johnny
Miller for the lowest final round in major
championship history. The Swede’s winning total of 20-under 264 was the lowest
72-hole score ever in the majors.
The two-man duel was scintillating stuff,
a back-and-forth match that will go down as
among the greatest in history. Stenson
didn’t get the lead for good until the 14th
hole, and then he seized the claret jug
emphatically with three straight birdies.
Yet Mickelson, 46, was going to need
time to process whether all that great play
meant much since he lost, though his
previous five major wins will no doubt be of
some long-term comfort.
Mickelson’s 17-under total would have
won all but two Opens over the past century.
In the first round, if his birdie putt on the
18th hole had not spun out of the cup, he
would be the first player in history to shoot
62 in a major.
“You know,” he reflected, “it’s not like I
have decades left of opportunities to win
majors, so each one means a lot to me. And I
put in my best performance today. Played
close to flawless golf and was beat.”
The thought Mickelson said he was left
with: “What do I need to do?”
Maybe birdie every hole. Mickelson
managed four birdies and an eagle Sunday,
but Stenson overpowered him with 10
birdies.
Stenson, 40 and ranked No. 6 in the
world, became the first Scandinavian to win
a major because he enjoyed the usual
precision with his irons while finding a
putting prowess he’d never displayed before. Moreover, he showed a resolve that
he’d never tapped into this deeply.
“It’s not something you want to run
around and shout, but I felt like this was

going to be my turn,” Stenson said. “I knew I
was going to have to battle back if it wasn’t,
but I think that was the extra self-belief that
made me go all the way this week.”
In conditions that were tough and windy
early, but turned benign and sunny on the
back nine, Stenson and Mickelson lapped
the field. J.B. Holmes closed with a 69 and
finished in third, 14 strokes behind Stenson.
The match was being compared to the
1977 British Open showdown between Jack
Nicklaus and Tom Watson at Turnberry,
dubbed “The Duel in the Sun.” Watson
prevailed by a shot over Nicklaus and 11
over third-place Hubert Green.
“I was thinking about that,” Mickelson
said with a slight smile. “I know I wanted to
be more of Tom in that case than Jack.”
Down by one shot at the outset, Mickelson immediately reversed the score when
he hit his approach to within 1 foot at No. 1
and Stenson three-putted. Over the next 10
holes, they halved with par only twice while
combining to score nine birdies, an eagle

and one bogey.
They traded birdies at No. 10, but Stenson
fell into a tie when he bogeyed 11 with a
three-putt. It stayed that way until Stenson
made an 18-foot birdie putt at 14.
“That stung,” Mickelson said.
Then came the crushing blow — Stenson
putting from off the green, at least 40 feet,
and making birdie at 15.
“Absolute bomb,” Stenson said.
Mickelson had a chance to tie when he
gave himself an eagle putt at 16, but his ball
broke off an inch from the target and hung
on the edge. He had to settle for birdie, and
Stenson matched him with a 5-foot birdie.
“I really thought I made eagle on 16,”
Mickelson said. “I don’t know how that
eagle putt missed. … But it seems there have
been a couple of putts like that this week.”
He smiled, obviously referring to the
Thursday putt on 18 for 62.
It was that kind of week for Mickelson:
Being great just wasn’t good enough.

NOTES
‘Beef’ cools off after hot start, but relishes cheers
London’s Johnston finishes
eighth; Stricker, at age 49,
gets to play again next year
By Tod Leonard
San Diego Union-Tribune
TROON, SCOTLAND — The roar could
be heard for hundreds of yards on the
grounds at Royal Troon. When Andrew
Johnston holed a birdie putt on the first
green of the British Open on Sunday, the
gallery was stirred into a frenzy.
“Beef” was off to a roaring start, and
there was a glimmer of hope that he might
be the Open’s next “Champion Golfer of the
Year.”
It wasn’t to be, as Johnston struggled in
shooting a 2-over-par 73 that dropped him
into eighth place at 3-under.
Still, in the last 200 yards of his walk up
the 18th, Johnston heard a rousing ovation
and the chants of “Beef! Beef! Beef!” He
took off his hat and raised his arms
triumphantly.
“I’ll remember it forever,” said the
27-year-old former mini-tour player from
North London.
Johnston birdied three of his first four
holes, but couldn’t make another after that,
and scored 38 on the back nine.
“It was probably slightly disappointing
the way I played,” Johnston said. “I started
off pretty good, but I don’t think my short
game was good enough today. I didn’t putt
that well. There was a better score to be
hand, but I gave it my best and that’s what I
come off with — no regrets.”
Stenson dedicates win: In his remarks at
the awards ceremony, Henrik Stenson said
he was dedicating his win to an American
friend, Mike Gerbich, who died of cancer
at age 74 on Wednesday in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Stenson posted a picture on Instagram of
himself, looking very young, posed with
Gerbich at a golf outing.
The two met in Dubai years ago.
“He was a very keen golfer and a great
man,” Stenson said at his news conference.
“He’s always been there as a big supporter
of mine, and in good days and bad days he
always sent me messages and been out at
some events.”

pretty cool things.”
Stricker tied for second in June in the
FedEx St. Jude Classic. His best finish in a
major is second in the 1998 PGA Championship.
Stricker rocks at 49: Steve Stricker may
be playing a limited schedule at the age of
49, but he’s showing no signs of letting up
competitively. He shot 69 in the final round
— with a double-bogey on the par-3 17th —
and finished alone in fourth place at
5-under.
As a top-10 finisher, Stricker will be
invited back to the British Open next year. It
also ensures his return to the Masters.
“It’s a lot of spinoffs,” Stricker said.
“That’s the great thing about playing golf

out here professionally. There are a lot of
carrots dangling. When you’re playing well,
you’re rewarded and you get to do some
Monty’s quick round: Troon member
Colin Montgomerie had a strange final
round. Last in the field after Saturday,
Montgomerie was the first off the tee
Sunday and played with a marker, Troon’s
head pro. He had been honored to be the
first player off the tee Thursday morning.
On Sunday, he played in 2 hours, 50
minutes, shot 76 and finished at 17-over.
“Everyone in the scorer’s tent and even
our own scorer said that was refreshing,
and it’s the way to play golf,” Montgomerie
said.
“I’m tired now, very tired,” the 53-yearold said. “I’ve been the leader in the
clubhouse again — second time this week.”
Cancer survivor Southgate finishes in
tears: With his family watching, cancer
survivor Matthew Southgate was in tears
as he approached the 18th green. A
traumatic 12 months for the Englishman
was ending on a high.
Southgate was about to complete a final
round of 2-under 69 that saw him finish tied
for 12th, a year to the week that he
underwent surgery after being diagnosed
with testicular cancer. At that point, he
thought his golfing career was over.
“Words cannot describe how that felt
walking down that last hole,” the 27-yearold Southgate said. “Sixty-nine is a hell of a
score for me on a day which meant so
much.”
Within weeks of the operation, Southgate was back playing — against his doctor’s
advice — and initially using his girlfriend’s
lighter clubs. He got through tour school to
keep his place on the European Tour, had a
fourth-place finish at the Irish Open in May
for the biggest pay check of his career, and
then qualified for the Open last month.
With a 1-under 283, he finished higher
than players such as top-ranked Jason Day
and Jordan Spieth. It nearly earned him an
exemption into next year’s British Open at
Birkdale. Southgate missed out by one
stroke.
“It’s been a roller-coaster year for me,”
said Southgate, who was told recently that
doctors were happy with his recovery and
that he doesn’t have to go to see them as
regularly.
“I always had the belief inside I’d get over
the health issues and be back in an Open
Championship, but to do it within the year
and to have my family here it is a big
achievement for me. If you had asked me
last year, I’d have said it was possible for me
to qualify. But to finish up there comfortably
in the top 20, no one would have had a
one-pound bet on that.”
This week, Southgate has been wearing a
wristband with the words “Hattie’s Heroes”
on it. His 3-year-old niece, Hattie, was
diagnosed with leukemia in 2014 and is
coming to the end of her chemotherapy.
Southgate left Troon with a message: “For
any youngsters out there who want to do it,
just go for it and stick with your dreams.”
Top players not in contention; “Postage
Stamp” not so scary: Among the top four
ranked players in the world, Rory McIlroy
fared the best. He closed with a 67 and tied
for fifth at 4 under. A year after coming
within one shot of a playoff in the Open,
Spieth tied for 30th. He shot his best score
of the week on Sunday with 68. Day (71) tied
for 22nd at 1 over. … The “Postage Stamp”
par-3 eighth hole wasn’t such a beast. It
ranked as only the 11th-hardest hole for the
week. There were 11 double-bogeys and 10
“others” scored in four rounds. Matt
Kuchar’s 7 on Sunday tied for the secondhighest score at the eighth since 1997.

PIRATES 2, NATIONALS 1 (18)
‘Tired’ Marte blasts winner in 18th
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — After more
than five hours of baseball between his Pirates and the Nationals, Starling Marte had all he
could take.
“Too many innings,” Marte
said. “We were tired. It was time
for a home run.”
Marte’s solo shot off Oliver
Perez in the 18th inning Sunday
gave the Pirates a 2-1 victory. The
only longer game in the majors
came July 1 when the Indians
beat the Blue Jays in 19 innings.
“I just love the grit of our club,”
said manager Clint Hurdle,
whose Pirates snapped a three-
game losing streak. “I don’t know
if it builds character. It definitely
reveals character.”
It took 17 pitchers combining
for 540 pitches in a game that
lasted 5 hours, 48 minutes. It was
close to ending a lot earlier. The
Nationals were down to their last
strike in the ninth inning when
pinch hitter Daniel Murphy hit a
tying home run.
Murphy, who was out of the
lineup for the third consecutive
day with a sore left hamstring,
took All-Star closer Mark Melancon deep on a 2-2 cutter.
In extra innings, it turned into
a battle of attrition.
The Pirates could have taken
the lead in the 16th on a double by
Josh Harrison, but a perfect relay
from Nats center fielder Michael
A. Taylor to shortstop Danny
Espinosa to catcher Wilson Ramos nailed Eric Fryer at the plate.
“It’s the best relay in the
history of the game in the 16th
inning,” Hurdle said. “Ever.”
Marte’s home run came on a
swing the Nationals didn’t even
want him to get. Manager Dusty
Baker wanted to intentionally
walk Marte but couldn’t get the
signal to Ramos in time.
“I didn’t put the (four) fingers
up soon enough to walk him,”
Baker said. “Before I could, he hit
the first pitch out of the ballpark.”

■ Reds: Billy Hamilton dashed

passed ball with two outs in the
ninth for a 1-0 victory over the
Brewers. Will Smith’s curveball
glanced off Lucroy’s glove.
“That’s what (Hamilton’s) speed
does,” Smith said. “It makes you

Peraza stealing in the second.
Peraza had been 13-for-13.
■ Marlins: Ichiro Suzuki doubled

two-run walk-off home run
clinched a 4-2 win over the
Royals. Rookie Michael Fulmer
allowed two runs on six hits in
eight innings and struck out five.
■ A’s: LHP Rich Hill, a prime
trade candidate, was removed
after just five pitches against the
Blue Jays with a blister on his left
middle finger. Josh Donaldson’s
two-run double in the ninth gave
the Jays a 5-3 victory.
■ Astros: Jose Altuve homered
among his four hits and drove in
three runs and Carlos Gomez hit
a grand slam to pace an 8-1
victory over the Mariners. Altuve
raised his AL-leading average to
.346. Collin McHugh struck out
10 in six shutout innings.

GAME RECAP RAYS 5, ORIOLES 2
By Eduardo A. Encina
The Baltimore Sun
Hart makes major league debut:
When Orioles left-hander Donnie
Hart was introduced — and the
crowd was told he was making his
major league debut — before the
bottom of the sixth inning, the
25-year-old reliever could clearly
and left the game after reaching
his pitch limit of 70 in the Orioles’
5-2 loss to the Rays. Tampa Bay
ended an eight-game losing
streak.
Not only was Bundy’s arrival in
the starting rotation the realization of the organization’s future
becoming the present, but an
exciting moment given the indirect path Bundy took to this
point, from his fast-tracked but
brief major league debut to the
three injury-plagued seasons that
followed, including Tommy John
surgery in 2013. Confident those
health concerns were in the past,
the Orioles let Bundy start and
received mixed results.
“He’s got a good arm,” Showalter said. “Obviously, we know
that. He got a couple of pitches
they blocked the other way.
[Evan] Longoria ambushed him,
for one. It’s all a part of the
process. . … He’s thinking like a
pitcher, he’s not thinking about a
lot of things that have been
challenging him. Now, it’s about
the competition, trying to give us
a good chance to win. More times
than not, giving up four, we’ll be
in that game a little bit more than
we were today.”
He threw 12 of 18 first-pitch
strikes, working ahead of the
Tampa Bay hitters often, but the
Rays obviously did their homework on Bundy, hitting all three
homers on mid-90-mph fastballs,
including two opposite-field
blasts on two-strike counts on
fastballs on the outside part of

Donnie Hart, called up Friday from Double-A Bowie, makes his major league
debut in the sixth inning of Sunday’s game. He got two outs before leaving.

from the seating bowl.
“That’s the one person I can hear
no matter how many people are in
the stands,” Hart said. “I heard that
and kind of smiled a little bit inside
and said, ‘It’s time to go to work.’ It
was fun.”
Showalter had been looking for a
good opportunity for Hart to get his
first major league appearance since
joining the team Friday from Double-A Bowie. An opportunity
emerged in the sixth inning against
a part of Tampa Bay’s lineup that
had three straight left-handed hitters.
The sidearm-throwing Hart

ORIOLES, From page 1
FRI
NOTES
Bundy out early; offense can’t cash in
ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. – At
least one time each trip to St. Petersburg, Orioles manager Buck
Showalter mentions how Tropicana Field — with its vast foul
ground, deep power alleys and
controlled conditions — has
morphed into more of a pitcher’s
ballpark over the years. And the
Orioles won a pair of low-scoring
games to start their three-game
series against Tampa Bay this weekend.
But the Orioles couldn’t complete a sweep of the reeling Rays,
dropping a 5-2 decision Sunday as
Tampa Bay ended its eight-game
losing streak in front of an announced 16,161.
Former first-round draft pick
Dylan Bundy allowed four runs —
including three homers — over 31⁄3
innings in his major league debut as
a starter, and the Orioles’ offense
couldn’t capitalize on several opportunities to break through
against Rays right-hander Jake
Odorizzi.
“It was more about us not
scoring any runs today,” Showalter
said. “We had a couple opportunities and could have cashed in on and
didn’t. Odorrizi was good.”
The Orioles (53-37) were 0-for-7
with runners in scoring position.
They opened the game by putting
two runners in scoring position
when Adam Jones’ leadoff single
was followed by Jonathan
Schoop’s double, but they scored
just one run that inning, on Manny
Machado’s sacrifice fly. Chris Davis and Mark Trumbo struck out.
Schoop was stranded in the third
after his second double of the day —
this time with one out. Machado
grounded out and Davis struck out
to end the inning.
Davis then stranded the bases
loaded with a shallow flyout to end
the fifth — an inning that opened
with back-to-back singles from
No. 8 hitter Joey Rickard and No. 9
hitter Caleb Joseph.
“We had him on the ropes a few
times and just couldn’t cash in,”
Joseph said of Odorizzi, who allowed just two runs on seven hits
over six innings, striking out seven
and walking one.
THU
the plate.
“They were pretty much where
I wanted them,” Bundy said.
“These guys are good hitters up
here, we just got to be able to make
better pitches. It’s the most pitches I’ve thrown up here in my
career, so that’s a positive. Had a
good fastball, but the command of
it wasn’t there like I wanted it to
be and they took advantage of it.”
One of Bundy’s biggest improvements this season has been
using his changeup to keep the
ball on the ground — and in the
ballpark — but he induced just one
ground-ball out on Sunday.
“The Rays are aggressive and
were looking to get on that
fastball,” Bundy said.
“One ball, I think, was on the
ground [for an out], so that’s not
very good from a starter. I’ve got to
work on movement of it and
getting the two-seam over the
plate and keep the ball down.”
A Rays team that had scored
just five runs over their previous
four games jumped on the rookie
quickly. With the Orioles (53-37)
leading 1-0 in the bottom of the
first, Longoria turned on a 97-mph
fastball on a 1-0 count, sending it
an estimated 419 feet into the
left-field stands for his 31st career
homer against the Orioles. Longoria later homered off reliever
Odrisamer Despaigne for his 17th
career multi-homer game.
Bundy was one strike from
getting out of the second inning
unscathed before Oswaldo Arcia
homered on a a full-count, 95mph fastball on the outside corner
Kiermaier on four pitches, the last
a 75-mph slider that Kiermaier
swung through. The Rays pinch-hit
for the left-handed-hitting Oswaldo Arcia, and Hart walked off the
field to a loud ovation from the
Orioles contingent behind the
third-base dugout.
“It’s nice,” Hart said. “I saw the
lineup today and saw the three
lefties in a row and kinda knew
those were the guys I would get. It’s
nice it worked out in a fresh inning.”
It was important to give Hart a
look before the Orioles left for New
York, where he might be needed
again against a Yankees lineup with
its share of lefthanders.
Hart was given a game ball as a
keepsake of his debut.
“It’s going to go to Mama Hart,”
he said.
Alvarez homers in his second
straight game: Designated hitter
Pedro Alvarez’s solo homer in the
sixth inning off Odorizzi was moot,
but another sign that Alvarez’s bat is
heating up.
Alvarez took a 1-2 elevated sinker
the opposite way into the left-field
seats for his second homer in as
many starts. He homered in Friday’s series opener, and missed a
second home run that night by
inches when one of this hits
bounced off the top of the railing
above the left-field fence.
Alvarez is hitting .315 with nine
homers and 20 RBIs in his past 26
games.

to give the Rays a 3-1 lead. Brad
Miller then homered to lead off
the third inning, hitting an 0-2,
95-mph outside fastball the opposite way to left field.
“You’re trying to work in the
off-speed pitches there,” Orioles
catcher Caleb Joseph said. “When
a guy is really throwing it by guys,
you run into the issue of not
wanting to speed their bat up, but I
think he just missed on a couple of
pitches. A couple of opposite-field
homers. I don’t think that’s going
to be a very common thing when
Dylan is on the mound.”
Bundy was carrying a strong
fastball that sat at 95-97 and hit
98 mph on the stadium radar gun
multiple times. But the control
he’s displayed this season in relief
— he was averaging 2.8 walks per
nine innings — wasn’t there Sunday, when he issued four walks.
“I thought his stuff was really
crisp,” Joseph said. “I thought he
had a nice tempo out there. He left
a few balls out over the plate. He
didn’t give up many hits, but when
they did, it seemed like they hit the
barrel pretty hard. I thought
tonight, or today, was not a good
idea of what we’re going to get.
He’s going to put together some
really nice innings for us and it’s
just a matter of their bats waking
up at the right time. I thought his
stuff was really crisp. I thought he
did well.
Bundy reached his season high
of 57 pitches after three innings,
and left the game after issuing
back-to-back one-out walks to
Arcia and No. 9 hitter Curt Casali.
His intended pitch count was
between 70 and 75 on Sunday
with the hope he can continue to
work it up as he continues to be
stretched out.

The Baltimore Sun
ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. – Orioles pitching prospect Hunter
Harvey is scheduled to have an MRI on his right elbow area today
following his abrupt departure from his most recent start at
short-season Aberdeen.
Harvey, who was pitching in Aberdeen in an effort to build up innings
following sports hernia surgery in May, left Saturday’s game after just
11⁄3 innings and 23 pitches against Batavia.
Harvey, 21, was the Orioles’ first-round draft pick (22nd overall) in
2013. He was working up his inning count, first pitching in the Gulf Coast
League before making his third start with the IronBirds on Saturday. In
his previous start with Aberdeen, Harvey threw a season-high 69
pitches and allowed nine baserunners and three runs — two earned —
over a season-high 31⁄3 innings.
It’s the latest setback in Harvey’s injury-plagued career. He was shut
down one month early in 2014, his first full minor league season, with
forearm soreness and he missed the entire 2015 season, first with a
hairline fracture in his shin after taking a comebacker in a minor league
spring training game and then with more arm soreness.
He received a platelet-rich plasma injection to help his recovery, but
didn’t pitch for the rest of the season.
Manager Buck Showalter said the report he received on Harvey’s
outing showed that the pitcher had been performing well before leaving
the game.
“I was just looking at” the report, Showalter said. “He had good stuff,
good velocity. I’m just hoping it was a precautionary thing. I’m not sure.
… [Player development director] Brian [Graham] just said he had some
soreness there that they didn’t like his description of it, but he was
[throwing] 96. He was good.”
Kim sticking with team: Outfielder Hyun Soo Kim tested his right
hamstring before Sunday’s game and the team determined he had
improved enough to accompany the squad to New York.
There’s still no guarantee that Kim, who strained his hamstring July
10 while running to first base in his first at-bat, will play in the Orioles’
forthcoming four-game series against the Yankees, but he’s close enough
that the team would rather keep him on the travel squad than leave him
in Florida to rehabilitate at the spring training facility in Sarasota.
“He’s closer. He could do a lot of things today he couldn’t do, wasn’t as
good at on Thursday, so that was encouraging,” Showalter said.
Kim, who was listed among the team’s available reserves for Sunday’s
series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays, performed a variety of running
drills before Sunday’s game and Showalter said he did well, only feeling
any tinge of discomfort during the final set of drills.
Kim said Saturday he believed he felt good enough to play. If he
doesn’t play by Wednesday — the last of 10 days a team can backdate a
disabled-list stint — he would likely be placed on the DL. In that case,
Kim would be eligible to return July 26.
Worley to start Tuesday: Despite throwing 12⁄3 innings of relief in
Sunday’s 5-2 loss to Tampa Bay, right-hander Vance Worley will fill the
team’s rotation hole Tuesday against the Yankees, Showalter said.
Worley needed just16 pitches to retire all five batters he faced Sunday,
so Showalter said the outing was treated more like a side bullpen session.
Worley hadn’t made a start since April 15. Since then, he’s been a
valuable weapon in long relief. He has a 2.34 ERA in 342⁄3 relief innings
and a 5.06 ERA in two starts this season.
Around the horn: Shortstop J.J. Hardy extended his hit streak to 10
games Sunday. He is hitting .385/.400/.641 over that stretch. … The
Orioles dropped to 30-10 when scoring first this season.

A weekly look at
the Orioles’ first
championship
For the week
of July 17-23
The Baltimore Sun
Having struggled for two weeks (five wins, six losses), the Orioles
explode, reeling off seven straight victories — including a three-game
sweep of the second-place Detroit Tigers at Memorial Stadium —
that balloons their American League lead to 121⁄2 games. At 66-32,
they are a club-record 34 games over .500.
“If we lose now,” Orioles coach Gene Woodling says, “we should be
run out of town.”
Frank Robinson erupts from a rare slump to hit six home runs, four
of them against the Tigers, to increase his AL lead to 28. All told, the
Orioles batter Detroit for 29 runs and 47 hits, starting with a13-3 rout
on the heels of a road trip from which
they’d arrived at 5 a.m. that day. During
one stretch in the series, they hit safely
in 22 consecutive innings.
Pennant fever? Baltimore has it.
“The Orioles’ magic number is 58,” The
Sun reports. Brooks Robinson, who’d
cooled after a torrid start, hits in nine
straight games and Boog Powell sends
a monstrous homer over the 410-foot
sign in center field at Memorial
Stadium.
There are pitching stars as well. In a
portent of his shutdown performance in Game 1 of the World Series,
Moe Drabowsky pitches four perfect innings of relief, striking out
eight (five in a row) to stave off the Tigers, 10-7. And in a 3-1 win over
Chicago, Jim Palmer stops the White Sox on six hits for his
team-leading 11th victory. He then beckons the media.
“I had my pancakes this morning. That’s my secret,” the
20-year-old right-hander says.

Coaches laud guidelines on pitch counts
High school rules body will
require all states to monitor,
limit pitch counts in 2017
By James Peters
Baltimore Sun Media Group
Looking to lessen the chances of high
school pitchers’ injuring their arms because of overuse, the National Federation of
State High School Associations’ Baseball
Rules Committee announced Wednesday
to “require a pitching restriction policy
based on the number of pitches thrown in a
game.”
The rule change, which will take effect in
2017, requires each state association to
“develop its own pitching restriction policy
based on the number of pitches thrown
during a game to afford pitchers a required
rest period between pitching appearances.”
Before the change, pitchers were allowed to throw a maximum of 14 innings in
a seven-day span or 10 in a three-day span.
“The recommendation is a good thing
for the players,” Arundel coach Frank Hood
said. “Something’s got to be done to protect
the kids. It’s a precaution, but it will be
interesting. In my opinion, if you are
throwing a kid for over 100 pitches and not
giving him ample amount of rest, like three
or four days, you don’t belong [in] coaching.”
The Maryland Public Secondary Schools
Athletic Association oversees Maryland’s
public school teams.
“Ultimately, the NFHS is leaving it up to
the state associations on a pitch-count
policy,” Hood said. “The NFHS and the
MPSSAA are looking at the guidelines of
USA Baseball’s Pitch Smart Program. I have
followed that for years at both Southern
and now at Arundel. I never throw a guy on
just three days’ rest.”
The Pitch Smart Program standards
include a limit of 95 pitches for ages 13 to 16
in a single day with four days of rest before
taking the mound again. That pitch limit
climbs to 105 for 17- and 18-year-olds with
the same rest requirements.
“It’s going to provide some consistency
too,” Old Mill coach Charlie Chaffin said.
“It goes all the way back to USA Baseball, so
I think there are going to be guidelines. I
think it’s going to start from there and filter
down to all the high schools and amateur
levels as well. It’s going to be put in place to
protect the arms.”
Well-intended as the new rule is, Hood
and Chaffin say the measures may be
difficult to enforce.
“The hard part is keeping track of the
pitches,” said Chaffin during a rain delay at
Saturday’s Crab Claw Classic at Joe Cannon Stadium in Anne Arundel County.
“We’re going to have to follow up game
after game and check the accuracy of what
we have and what the other team has. I
don’t really think it’s going to alter the
number of pitches a kid throws in a week
versus if we track innings, but it’s the way
things are going.”
Said Hood: “The big question will be
how it is enforced. Since it won’t be part of
the rule book, it will be outside the umpires’
jurisdiction. But who will be responsible
for the count? Each coach? How will you
resolve discrepancies? Those questions all
have to be answered.”
Ultimately, Archbishop Curley coach
Brooks Norris believes the responsibility
for keeping players healthy is the coaching
staff’s.
“I don’t think there’s any one right
answer,” he said. “I think it’s good to try to
keep kids from getting abused. Counting
pitches instead of innings is a big plus, but I
don’t think it’s perfect. There are some kids
who are bigger, stronger, more physically
mature who can handle a higher pitch
count.
“I think it’s a step in the right direction,
but I think it’s the coach’s responsibility to
take care of the kids, take care of their arms
to make sure they’re not getting overused.
Hopefully, it will help, but who knows?”
Archbishop Spalding coach Joe Palumbo
said that the main problem with overworked arms should not attributed to high
school coaches but to summer travel teams.
He estimated pitchers will throw about
75 pitches in pool play, and if his team
reaches the next round, the same pitcher
will throw another 75 pitches for a total of
150 in five days.
“So many young players get injured and
need surgery at such a young age. It’s
definitely something people need to be
aware of as parents and as coaches,”
Palumbo said. “It’s going to help players
stay healthy long-term.”

Despite numbers, Bundy showed
some promise in Sunday’s start
SCHMUCK, From page 1
work postgame comments, manager Buck
Showalter seemed satisfied with the performance, which would have looked a lot
better if the Orioles had figured out a way to
get a hit or two with runners in scoring
position. The Orioles were 0-for-7 in those
situations, which they’ll attribute to a solid
performance by Rays starter Jake Odorizzi
and be half right.
When the first six hitters in one of
baseball’s best lineups strike out 13 times,
there’s only so much cap-tipping you can
justify.
Here’s what matters: Bundy built up a lot
of confidence on the way to a 2-1 record and
3.08 ERA in 22 first-half relief appearances.
Nothing that happened Sunday should
shake that confidence as long as he knows
the Orioles understand they are grooming
him for a long career as a starting pitcher
and this was the beginning of that process.
It’s not entirely clear just how often he
will slot into the rotation. Showalter
originally hinted at a very conservative
innings limit this season — perhaps as few
as 70. That might have evolved as Bundy

make him the fourth overall pick in the 2011
amateur draft.
Even if the club decides to hold him to,
say, 100 innings this year, that would leave

The decision to move Bundy into the
rotation was made out of necessity, so his
near-term future might be affected by
whatever executive vice president Dan
Duquette does before the Aug. 1 non-waiver
trade deadline. If the Orioles find a way to
acquire a quality veteran starter — which
appears unlikely at this point — Bundy
might fall back into a spot starter-middle

SPRINT CUP NEW HAMPSHIRE 301
Bad days are long past as Kenseth wins
his second straight at New Hampshire
By Shawn Courchesne
LOUDON, N.H. — For the first13
years of his NASCAR Sprint Cup
Series career, Matt Kenseth had
Loudon, N.H., not ranked very high
on his list of happy locales to visit
for events.
In 26 starts for Roush Fenway
Racing from 2000 to 2012, Kenseth
had no victories and only five
top-five finishes and 12 top-10
finishes at New Hampshire Motor
Speedway.
But these days the cozy confines
of the tight 1.058-mile Loudon oval
regularly put a smile on the face of
Kenseth, who joined the Joe Gibbs
Racing stable before the 2013 season.
On Sunday, Kenseth proved
once again that the horrors at the
New Hampshire Motor Speedway
are long in the rear view.
Kenseth rallied from a deep
starting spot and rolled to victory in
the Sprint Cup Series New Hampshire 301.
“It always feels good to win, but
today especially,” Kenseth said.
“Friday I didn’t do a good job
qualifying. We had to start in the
middle of the pack. Our first run
wasn’t great, we adjusted and made
some great changes for run two and
really I felt like we had probably the
best car all day, it just took forever
to get there. It definitely feels good
to get the win.”
Tony Stewart was second and
Joey Logano third.
It was the second consecutive
victory at the track for Kenseth —
who won there last September in
the second Chase for the Championship playoff event — and his
third victory overall in his past six

starts in Loudon.
In seven races at Loudon since
moving to Joe Gibbs Racing, Kenseth has an average finish of 6.1 at
New Hampshire Motor Speedway
and has finished sixth or better five
times, with only one finish worse
than ninth.
“I was looking forward to coming here because we’ve ran really
well here since I’ve came to Joe
Gibbs Racing,” Kenseth said. “It’s
been a real turnaround for me. This
used to be one of my worst places
and now I feel like it’s one of my
better places.”

last week I felt like if all the stars
were aligned we could have won at
[Kentucky Motor Speedway], if
everything went just for right for
us. To be able to come here and win
obviously feels good. I’m just thinking about moving on to [Indianapolis] and hopefully being in the mix.”
Kenseth started 18th in the field.
He was up to fifth by Lap 75. He
went by Martin Truex Jr. for the
lead on Lap 258 and held that spot
until a round of pit stops under
caution. Hamlin stayed out and
assumed the lead, but Kenseth
retook the lead for good on Lap 271.
Busch led the most laps (133)
Sunday, but faded to eighth place
late. Hamlin led five laps and was
ninth. Edwards was 20th. All four
Gibbs teams are already unofficially qualified for the Chase for the
Championship playoff.
“That’s what it’s all about,” team
owner Joe Gibbs said. “… I think
the key is, as you continue to work
during the year, is trying to keep the
performance and try to point to the
playoffs. When you get to the
playoffs you never know what’s
going to happen. You take your best
shot. What you want to do is
hopefully continue to improve as
the year goes on and that’s kind of
our goal.”
More than an hour after the
conclusion of the race, NASCAR
officials announced that Kenseth’s
car failed the postrace Laser Inspection System and will be further
examined this week at the
NASCAR R&D Center in Concord,
N.C.

Said crew chief Jason Ratcliff: “It
seems like this is one of our better
tracks. We’ve had some good runs
here in the last three years and we
always look forward to coming
here. It’s been a track that’s not only
good for the team, but obviously
good for Matt.”
For Joe Gibbs Racing it proved
an important victory. The team had
gone six events without winning,
which stood out as a huge number
considering Joe Gibbs Racing cars
won seven of the first 12 events of
the season. The last win for the
team was Kenseth’s on May 15 at
Dover International Speedway.
Kyle Busch (three wins), Carl
Edwards (two wins) and Denny
Hamlin (one win) have the team’s

overtrick."
"My husband said I should have discarded my ace of
diamonds on the third club. His queen would become an
entry to his good clubs. I had to admit he was right, but I
didn’t agree that I should have found such a bizarre play."
To discard the ace of South’s long suit might have blown a
trick -- vital at duplicate. Still, I would have tried it. I wouldn’t
have passed up a chance for a once-in-a-lifetime play.
DAILY QUESTION You hold: ♠ A Q 3 ♥ K J 4 ♦ K 5 4 2 ♣
K Q 8. You are the dealer. What is your opening call?
ANSWER South in today’s deal opened one diamond. No
doubt his range for a1NT opening bid was15 to17 points, as it
is for many duplicate players. Even so, a case existed for
downgrading the hand. It has only one ace, no long suit to
serve as a source of tricks and no promising spot cards.
Personally, I might have opened 1NT even with a 15-to-17
range.

ASK AMY
AMY DICKINSON
DEAR AMY: I have worked
closely with a co-worker for five
years. She can be warm and
generous, is a hard worker and is
always the first to volunteer for
projects and committees.
She is also incredibly sensitive
and thin-skinned and often perceives slights in benign comments. When this happens, she
flies off the handle. She has
stormed out of meetings in tears
and snapped at co-workers.
I have stopped defending her,
both publicly and privately. But
now and then I still “run interference” for her in an attempt to
prevent her from melting down
and to protect others’ feelings.
She often wants to vent about
how she has been mistreated and
asks for advice about how to
handle these imaginary insults,
butsherejectsanyactualhelpand
seems to only want to be told that
she is right and others are wrong.
She has experienced some
trying personal circumstances in
the past few years, and we work
in a setting that gives workers a
lot of autonomy (i.e. behavior has
to be really egregious for a
supervisor to get involved.) Any
advice? — Emotional Hostage
DEAR HOSTAGE: You have
kindly run interference for your
co-worker for years so that she
will be shielded from the natural
consequences of her actions. No
doubt you have done this for her
because you are a genuinely good
person. Perhaps you’ve also done
this for your own reasons. Her
volatility makes you uncomfortable. You also sound a little afraid
of her moods and behavior.
Emotional bullies get the best
of people by making others check
their own reactions to try to
protect themselves. Over time,
this can make things much worse.
If she is acting out, don’t offer
help or advice. Never “protect”
her from a meltdown. If she is
venting to you and asks for
advice, tell her, “You ask for
advice but you don’t seem to
actually want it. I’m confident
you can figure this out.”
The loose environment at
your workplace gives her a lot of
latitude about her behavior, but
this environment might not be
the best fit for her. If her
unhappiness and behavior at
work interferes with her (and
others’) ability to do their jobs, it
would be time for a supervisor to
offer her a course correction.

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION Every four years, political parties
gather to decide and nominate their respective candidates for the forthcoming presidential election. Those events begin with the first
night of the Republicans’ convening in Cleveland, and along with cable, several broadcast
networks will supply coverage. Of them, PBS
plans the most per evening, with Gwen Ifill
and Judy Woodruff anchoring — and certainly, given the campaigns this time, there will be
much to discuss. 8 p.m. on 22/67 PBS 26 PBS
12 MONKEYS The season finale, “Memory

up the courage to do the unthinkable to save
the world. (TV14) 9 p.m. on SYFY
