B.B. King Died After Series Of Mini Strokes, Medical Experts Say
LAS VEGAS (AP) — B.B. King's physician and the coroner in Las Vegas say the 89-year-old blues legend died of a series of small strokes attributable to his longstanding battle with type 2 diabetes. Dr. Darin Brimhall and Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg (FYOU'-den-berg) tell The Associated Press the medical term for the cause of death is multi-infarct dementia. It's sometimes referred to as MID, and is also called vascular dementia. Dementia is a permanent loss of brain function that occurs with certain diseases, including diabetes. It usually affects adults over age 55, and can affect memory, thinking, language and judgment. Brimhall says King's strokes resulted from reduced blood flow as a consequence of chronic diabetes — or ...

Left Out
A bunch of 12-year-old kids had their hearts broken this week. Jackie Robinson West, a team from Chicago’s South Side, won the U.S. title at the 2014 Little League World Series. They achieved their dream in dramatic fashion. I remember watching their pitcher give up the go-ahead homer against Nevada in the title game and he was so crushed that he physically doubled-over on the mound. His team fought back and won in an amazing game, and the joy on that kid’s face after the final out was something that made even me jealous.

Bill Cosby Resigns From Temple University Board Of Trustees
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bill Cosby resigned Monday as a trustee of Temple University following a string of allegations that accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting women over many years. The 77-year-old entertainer has been a high-profile cheerleader for his beloved alma mater in Philadelphia and a board member since 1982. "I have always been proud of my association with Temple University. I have always wanted to do what would be in the best interests of the university and its students. As a result, I have tendered my resignation from the Temple University Board of Trustees," Cosby said in a statement released by the university. Board chairman...
Texas Officer Slams Allegedly Drunk Woman To The Ground, Knocking Her Out
A Texas police officer was following protocol Tuesday when he was caught on video throwing a drunk woman to the ground, knocking her unconscious, his police chief said. On cell phone video, a witness captured Round Rock Officer Ben Johnson slamming the woman to the ground in front of her 6-year-old daughter in a strip mall parking lot. Viviana Keith, who was allegedly resisting arrest, hit her head on the pavement and was knocked out, KVUE reported Thursday. Keith's mother and some witnesses to the incident have accused Johnson of using excessive force. But according to KVUE, Round Rock Police Chief Allen Banks said...
I Am Black. Rachel Dolezal Is Not.
By now, most everyone on and off social media has heard about Rachel Dolezal, the white former NAACP leader in Spokane, Washington, who has been publicly misrepresenting herself as a black woman for nearly a decade, and issued her resignation statement today in which she is decidedly evasive and resolutely non-apologetic. Since the story broke late last week, when her estranged white birth parents came forward with the claim that their daughter is "Caucasian by birth," there have been the predictable influx of think pieces -- among the exceptional are those from the Guardian, by my colleague Steven Thrasher, and by Adam Serwer for BuzzFeed -- and ...
Marvel’s New ‘Spider-Man’ Comic Series Will Star Miles Morales
When Marvel's relaunched Spider-Man comic series comes out this fall, a new face will be behind the spidey mask. The new series, written by Brian Michael Bendis and drawn by artist Sara Pichelli, will relaunch with Miles Morales, a half-black, half-Latino teenager, as Spider-Man, according to the New York Daily News. Morales has appeared as a version of Spider-Man in Marvel's offshoot Ultimate Spider-Man series since 2011, which is separate from Marvel's larger Spider-Man universe where Peter Parker is behind the mask. When the limited comic series Secret Wars ends this summer, however, Morales will re-emerge as the official Spider-Man on the page. Bendis, the writer and co-creator of the new Spider-Man comics wants fans to ...
Poll: New Yorkers Overwhelmingly Disapprove Of Cops Turning Backs On Bill de Blasio
Attacks by the New York City police unions on Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) may have backfired. New York City voters across racial lines disapprove of recent protests in which police officers turned their backs on de Blasio at the funeral of two police officers slain in the line of duty, a new Quinnipiac poll says . Black, white and Hispanic voters disapprove of the decision by police officers to turn their backs 69 percent to 27 percent, the poll says. New York voters of all races also disapprove of comments by police union leaders who said de Blasio had "blood on his hands" after two officers were shot and killed in Brooklyn while sitting in their patrol car ...
