n May 4, Ron Borchardt taught his final class at Kansas University. For more than 44 years, the 71-year-old pharmacy professor has made it a priority to stay in Lawrence, although his influence has extended far beyond northeast Kansas.

Thinking back to a fashion trend of the 1990s, Liz Topp said she wishes she had a bracelet marked “WWRTBD” to remind her of her mentor. What would Ron T. Borchardt do?

“I often think ‘what would Ron do?’

Kansas’ broad marijuana bill attracts bulk of GOP votes

By Nicholas Clayton The Associated Press

Topeka — Supporters of a broad bill that would ease marijuana laws wending its way through the Kansas Legislature claim it’s a narrow enough set of reforms that conservative Republicans can vote for and demonstrates a shift in the long-running discussion.

Kansas’ GOP-dominated House passed the bill by a wide

margin Thursday, making it the most serious push to liberalize Kansas’ marijuana policies in decades. The bill would decrease penalties for marijuana possession, order a state study of industrial hemp and allow limited production and sale of hemp oil to treat seizures.

Democratic Rep. Gail Finney from Wichita, who for many years has supported comprehensive marijuana legislation, said efforts to “educate” the

move that prompted a lawsuit from the attorneys general in Nebraska and Oklahoma. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said in January that the state was “assessing its options” on the possibility of joining the suit, but his office has declined to comment further.

Only Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia have followed Colorado in legalizing recreational marijuana, but 23 states have comprehensive medical marijuana laws. Twenty-two states have initiated studies of industrial hemp and 14 have legalized some medical use of hemp oil, as the Kansas bill would do.

The state’s first movement on loosening pot laws happened last month, when Wichita

voters approved a ballot initiative last month that drops penalties for firsttime marijuana possession to a $50 fine. The ordinance has not yet gone into force as the state Supreme Court reviews whether it unconstitutionally conflicts with state law.

Although the House bill would not resolve the legal conflict, initiative co-organizer Esau Freeman said he was “absolutely surprised” by the vote and said it shows legislators “are listening to the people of Kansas.”

The original version of the bill would keep first- and second-time marijuana offenders who don’t have serious prior convictions out of jail — a reform that is expected to decrease overcrowded prison populations and save more than $1.7 million over the next two fiscal years, according to state estimates.

The bill also would al-

“

Republicans are companionate toward individuals that have health concerns.”

— Republican Majority Leader Jene Vickrey low state-licensed producers to make hemp oil with no more than 3 percent of the compound THC, which gives marijuana its intoxicating effects. Only about 24,000 residents with severe seizure disorders would be allowed to purchase the hemp oil, according to Rep. John Wilson, a Democrat from Lawrence.

Wilson crafted the medical marijuana language and said he intentionally made it as narrow as possible to make it something that the 97 Republicans in the 125-member chamber could vote for, calling it an “un-sexy,

health-related bill,” on the floor.

Despite that, many conservative Republicans still oppose the bill, saying they worried that it conflicts with federal laws and would be difficult to enforce. Republican Rep. Dick Jones from Topeka warned that even with its narrow focus, the measure would be “a foot in the door” to full legalization.

Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce said he has not had time to review the bill and was “pretty well surprised” it passed in the House. Senate Republicans would be reluctant to reduce criminal penalties, he said, but the bill would have some support.

Even if it is rejected, Finney said, the conversation has changed.

“Kansas is always behind the book, and this is one of those baby steps,” she said. “We’ve got to continue making baby steps.”

L awrence J ournal -W orld “on the front end of helping to develop this new class of product.”

Despite many accomplishments in his field, Borchardt attributes much of his success to others.

“I’ve had these wonderful people who have worked with me over the years,” he said. “Unfortunately, professors often get all the credit, but at the end of the day it’s those students, visiting scientists and post-docs that worked in my lab days and nights and weekends that generated all the data that made me look good.”

This year, Borchardt’s last as a professor, a group of current and former students and colleagues joined together in establishing a $1.8 million pharmaceutical chemistry professorship in his name.

Calling the professorship an honor, Borchardt said he is pleased to know the money will be used either to bring new hires to the university or to retain current faculty members.

The future Borchardt doesn’t like the word “retire.” He prefers to tell people he’s transitioning.

“That’s one of the nice things about academic life is you can continue to be professionally active, and I hope to be well into my 70s,” he said.

“My life has been like driving in the fast lane of the Autobahn, and I very much wanted to figure out how to make a transition into a slightly slower lane and enjoy my family, grandchildren and the things I perhaps missed a little bit of during my career.”

As Borchardt begins to enjoy his well-earned transition, Topp, Thakker and Audus all agree the School of Pharmacy will never be able to replace Borchardt, but those who have worked with him will carry on where he left off.

“I don’t see it as a gap; I see it as an ongoing legacy of Ron,” Thakker said. “All of the people he has touched and trained are out there continuing his legacy in some way. He has passed on the baton and many, many, many of us will continue on.”

A 26-year-old man is dead following a singlevehicle accident that occurred east of Lawrence early Sunday morning.

About 12:10 a.m., Zachary Julo, of Atchison, was traveling eastbound on 1500 Road, right outside of city limits, when his Chevrolet S-10 pickup left the roadway and struck a tree, said Capt. Steve

Buchholz of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Julo was the only occupant of the vehicle, and Buchholz did not know what caused Julo to lose control of the pickup.

Julo required extrication from the vehicle by emergency workers and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The cause of the accident is still being investigated, Buchholz said.

Student project modernizes Lecompton history sites

By Elliot Hughes Twitter: @elliothughes12

A fourth-grade class at Lecompton Elementary is crafting a multimedia component to enliven the historic sites around town.

Sandy Gantz, the teacher of the class, earned a $250 community action grant from Thrivent Financial that will help install QR codes at 15 historic sites in Lecompton. Each code will take smartphone users to a YouTube video created by her students that will expound on the history of the site.

Gantz said it should all be made available sometime in June.

“We have so much history here, I thought it would be nice to get kids involved in learning about their town,” she said.

moderate Republicans in the House to form a working majority and pass a bill, making it possible for conservatives to save face by voting against it.

That’s no longer the case. Conservatives now hold solid majorities in both chambers. And many of them still insist that education funding is a political decision that only the Legislature, not the courts, can decide.

Rep. John Carmichael of Wichita, an attorney and the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, said that this time, a showdown between the courts and the Legislature could have dire consequences.

“We could see not only schoolhouse doors closed because the court enjoins the expenditure of funds under the block grant proposal, but we could also see the courthouse door padlocked,” he said.

Carmichael said he thinks that’s an unlikely outcome. “I think cooler heads will eventually prevail,” he said.

But Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, said it’s more likely that the public will pressure lawmakers to act on school finance before the courts are forced to step in.

“I think what will exacerbate that problem is Manhattan laying off 73 people in their schools,” she said. “Other districts closing early because they don’t have money.

And when you close early like that, parents are not happy because now, that’s a child care issue.”

Saber rattling on both sides Over the past several weeks, both the district court and the Legislature have sent signals

Among the sites where codes will be found will be Constitution Hall, the Democratic Headquarters building and the Territorial Capital Museum. Some videos will show photographs with students narrating. Others will involve short plays.

Students worked with volunteers from the Lecompton Historical Society to make it happen.

“It was very positive,” Gantz said. “(The students) enjoyed it. The adults enjoyed working with the kids and realizing how tech-savvy they are.” that they’re prepared for a battle over school finance.

First, when lawmakers were debating sweeping changes to the school funding system in March, the court indicated it might issue temporary orders, “to protect the status quo.”

It also directed the state treasurer and the director of the Division of Accounts and Reports to be named as defendants in the case, both personally and in their official capacities.

Presiding Judge Frank Theis said from the bench Thursday that those people needed to be named so that individuals responsible for administering the law could be held accountable for complying with any remedy orders the court might issue.

“That was clearly a shot across the bow,” Carmichael said.

Meanwhile in the Legislature, at the same time the panel was hearing testimony Thursday, the Kansas House passed a bill that tied funding of the judicial branch to enactment of several judicial policy measures.

Although none of those policy measures dealt directly with the authority of the courts, some observers said it sent an ominous signal that the Legislature could, in the future, tie judicial funding to other kinds of policies, and even withhold funds if the judiciary does not comply with the Legislature’s wishes.

“It certainly smacks of dangerousness,” said Washburn University law professor Bill Rich.

“That whole concept that you can’t retaliate against judges is a pretty fundamental concept of U.S. constitutional law.

But it’s a little harder to apply to state courts because state constitutions

are all so different.”

Other measures still pending in the Legislature suggest that political animosity toward the court still has not died down since the previous showdown in 2005.

Among them is Senate Bill 297, which would list “attempting to usurp the power of the legislative or executive branch of government” as grounds for impeaching a Supreme Court justice. The bill is pending in the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Other measures introduced this year would change the way Supreme Court justices are selected, and one bill would lower the mandatory retirement age for judges.

The Rummage House, a thrift store operated by St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, currently has an overstock of items and is offering discounts, Haake said. Customers can fill a paper grocery bag with clothing for $5, and all adult and teenage clothing is half-off. The sale runs through the end of May, Haake said.

“You can get really good stuff for people on a budget,” she said.

The thrift store is run by volunteers and is open Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The store

also has clothes for children and household items such as dishes and small appliances.

The store accepts vouchers from several Lawrence community organizations, such as the Willow Domestic Violence Center, the Lawrence Community Shelter, Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center and the Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority. Haake, who has been volunteering at the store for more than 20 years, said the majority of items are paid for with vouchers, but the store is open to anyone.

“We just try to get affordable stuff to the people that need it,” she said.

INDEPENDENT WEALTH MANAGEMENT

Keeping calm for now For the time being, at least, key Republicans in the Kansas House are not worrying about how the court might rule.

“I hope the courts do what’s best for all students,” said Rep. Ron Ryckman Jr., R-Olathe, who chairs the Appropriations Committee. “I would assume that any decision that’s made will not be the final say. We’ll have time to discuss it. We’ll have more input from more people.”

Judiciary Committee Chairman John Barker, a retired judge from Abilene, said any decision from the panel will be appealed to the Supreme Court. “And if the Supreme Court affirms that decision, that’s law.

We follow the law,” he said.

“These are all hypotheticals,” he said. “Let’s wait for the court process. The courts are always slow and methodical. And when they work through their system, then we’ll come back and work through the legislative process.”

try to keep my ear to the ground when it comes to new restaurants in town, and now I’ve found one where you can keep an ear to your mouth, too. A soul food restaurant has opened in the shopping center at 19th and Haskell, and one of its menu items is a unique pig ear sandwich.

Kingfish Soul Food and Bistro opened a couple of months ago at 1910 Haskell. The owner simply gives his name as Kingfish, and who am I to press harder? (Ask the pig how well that works.

Just be sure to speak really loudly.) He said he had worked for about 20 years with the noted soul food restaurant Niecie’s in Kansas City, Mo. He said he was looking for an opportunity of his own, and his wife had connections to the Lawrence area.

“And you guys have never had soul food here before,” Kingfish said.

“People are catching on to it.”

Don’t worry, you don’t have to embrace the idea of a pig ear sandwich in order to be a soul food fan. The menu includes a lot of other dishes you may be more familiar with. Among the top sellers are catfish nuggets and filets, meatloaf, fried chicken and a specialty dish called the Kansas City Po Boy. That involves a sandwich stuffed with catfish, tomato, shredded lettuce and Louisiana sauce.

Kingfish said many of the recipes he learned from his grandmother and uncle, who both were longtime cooks.

He said what’s really neat about the recipes, though, is how they’ve been passed down through the generations.

uct tape and bailing wire have long been the go-to products to fix just about anything. But there is another product on the market that is likely to give these old standards a run for their money: FiberFix. FiberFix is a wateractivated resin-soaked cloth. When used properly, this flexible tape will set up like steel, sealing whatever ails you beneath it.

Step 1: Choose FiberFix to repair broken tool handles, leaky pipes, broken furniture, sports equipment or just about anything else that tape can be wrapped around.

FiberFix is heat and cold resistant, waterproof, paintable and sandable. It is a permanent patch that is nearly impossible to remove.

Step 2: Protect your hands with the disposable gloves that come with each package of FiberFix. If resin comes in contact with skin, wash it off immediately with an acetone-soaked rag. Dried resin is nearly impossible to remove. Handle FiberFix with care.

Step 3: Lightly sand and clean the area to be fixed. FiberFix does best with dry, slightly rough areas, but it can be used on smooth or wet surfaces, too.

Step 4: Fill a shallow pan with potable water.

Submerge the roll of FiberFix in the water for 10 to 15 seconds. Remove the roll and squeeze it to remove excess moisture.

food products, primarily for dogs and cats. The business also will have a professional pet groomer on staff and will feature two self-service wash tubs. (For pets. If you misunderstand that, it’ll get really embarrassing in a hurry.)

“Self-wash stations are a growing trend,” Funk said, as many people are realizing that a pet wash may produce a bigger mess than they want at their homes. “We want to be there when people realize it is a great service.

We’ll provide the tubs and everything they need, and we intend for it to be kind of a spa feel.” (When German Shepherds start offering massages, that is when I’ll be impressed.)

Funk said the store’s pet food business is expected to be big, as well. He said the natural pet food segment of the industry is growing quickly. He said pet owners are recognizing that animals also need higher protein, lower carb diets than what is being provided by many of the standard pet food brands.

“We try to focus on biologically appropriate food,” Funk said. “Big protein and low carbs because dogs and cats are carnivores.”

As for the Earthwise chain, it touts itself as the fastest growing natural pet supply chain in the country. But the Lawrence store will be the first in the northeast Kansas area. The nearest location is in Wichita.

to open three stores in total. He said he is looking for locations in the Kansas City metro area.

But he said he jumped at the chance to first open a store in Lawrence because of the community’s attitudes about health and because a prime location was available in the growing northwest part of the community.

“We’re really excited about the location,” Funk said.

The location is in the same shopping center as the new natural foods grocer Sprouts, although not next door to it. Sprouts is set to open July 1, and Funk said he thinks the two businesses will be compatible because they’ll both attract a health conscious demographic. l l l

A couple of weeks ago, we reported there was a lot of speculation that Lawrence’s Holiday Inn and Convention Center was going to become a DoubleTree by Hilton hotel. Well, it is speculation no longer. The ownership group of the hotel and officials at DoubleTree

by Hilton have confirmed that the brand will change in March.

Hulsing Hotels — the Asheville, N.C.-based company that operates the Holiday Inn — said in a release that it plans a “multimillion dollar” renovation of the entire property. The release didn’t provide many details about what will change with the property,

other than an extensive renovation.

“The dramatic changes are expected to raise the standard for all hotels and convention centers in the area,” the release states.

“The total renovation of the hotel will provide the city with a modern convention facility. Every aspect of the property will be upgraded, including an expansion of the majority of the guest rooms to better accommodate guests.”

Management at the Holiday Inn previously has confirmed that the project won’t involve an expansion of the convention center or banquet space, which currently can host events of around 600 people.

Currently, the hotel has 192 guest rooms, which makes it the largest in the city. No word on whether that number will change, given that it sounds like some of the room sizes will expand.

The hotel also has about 15,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space, which is the largest hotel-based conference and event space in the city.

The DoubleTree brand will bring another upper scale hotel offering to the city. DoubleTree by Hilton has 415 properties across the globe. It is best known for providing guests with a chocolate chip cookie upon their arrival.

EDITORIALS

Haskell guest Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell was a welcome guest who may become a valuable voice in Washington for Haskell Indian Nations University.

A

visit from the head of the U.S. Department of the Interior is an exciting opportunity for Haskell Indian Nations University.

We hope Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell left Haskell with a favorable impression of the school and new enthusiasm for its unique mission. It’s been a long time since Haskell has gotten the attention it deserves from federal officials, and Jewell’s support could go a long way toward promoting the school and securing some much-needed funding.

Jewell came to Lawrence Friday to deliver the commencement address for Haskell’s 2015 graduating class. She was the first Interior secretary to ever speak at Haskell and by far the highest ranking federal official to visit the school in recent memory. Congratulations to Haskell officials who arranged the visit and acted as Jewell’s hosts.

While she was here, Jewell had an opportunity to see the campus and some of its needs. She also talked to the staff and seemed to understand the important role Haskell plays in “Indian country.”

It’s understandable that a school like Haskell could be somewhat overlooked amid the many duties of the Department of the Interior. The department employs more than 70,000 people and manages a $12 billion annual budget. It oversees the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Geological Survey, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and several other bureaus, including the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

Haskell is just one small part of Jewell’s responsibilities, but visiting the campus had to give the secretary a new appreciation for the school, its people, its heritage and its needs. There is no one better to carry that message back to Washington and get the ball rolling on updated regulations and new funding to help build a solid future for Haskell and the students and alumni it serves.

Huckabee an embarrassment to GOP Washington — In the 1950s, during one of his two campaigns as the Democrats’ presidential nominee, Adlai Stevenson was invited to address a gathering of Baptists in Houston, where in 1960 John Kennedy would address a group of Protestant ministers to refute charges that his Catholicism rendered him unfit to be president. This was an opinion vociferously promulgated by Norman Vincent Peale, a broadcast preacher and author of “The Power of Positive Thinking.” The man introducing Stevenson said the candidate had been invited only “as a

“

Mike Huckabee’s second run for the Republican presidential nomination will reveal how much embarrassment can emanate from one small town.” courtesy” because Peale “has instructed us to vote for your opponent.” In response, Stevenson repeated a quip he had made when, in 1952, Peale said Stevenson was unfit to be president because he was divorced. Stevenson said: “I find the Apostle Paul appealing and the Apostle Peale appalling.”

Now comes the Apostle Mike, determined to save Christian America. Mike Huckabee’s second run for the Republican presidential nomination will reveal how much embarrassment can emanate from one small town.

Hope, Ark., gave us Bill Clinton and the cloud of the Clintonian family seediness that still hovers over public life. Huckabee, another former Arkansas

governor, chose Hope, his hometown, to launch a candidacy that begins with a book, “God, Guns, Grits, and Gravy,” and a postannouncement “factories, farms and freedom” tour. If the presidency goes to the most alliterative candidate, Huckabee wins.

Huckabee, who won Iowa’s 2008 caucuses, aims to become the second person to win two contested Iowa caucuses. Bob Dole, who won in 1988 and 1996, spent the intervening eight years at the center of politics.

Huckabee has spent much of the last eight years at Fox News, which is dandy but hardly the Senate.

In 1998, Huckabee vowed to “take back this nation for Christ.” And to repel Satanic threats to Iowa’s subsidized ethanol industry, which he says is vital because “we need the broadest possible energy portfolio.” Never mind today’s bountiful energy.

Huckabee was unsurprised when a lunatic murdered 20 children and six adults at the Sandy Hook (Connecticut) elementary school in 2012: “We ask why there is violence in our schools, but we have systematically removed God from our schools. Should we be so surprised that schools would become a place of carnage?” So, the slaughter was a consequence of

the 1962 Supreme Court decision against government schools administering prayers? Was the 2012 massacre of 12 people at the Aurora, Colo., movie theater caused by insufficient praying at America’s cineplexes?

Today, Huckabee says, “We are moving rapidly toward the criminalization of Christianity,” and he asserts a biblical duty to pray for the Supreme Court justices pondering the matter of same-sex marriages. Politico recently reported that Huckabee told some conservative pastors that “he cringes whenever he hears people call a court decision ‘the law of the land.’”

He added: “This is not that complicated. There are three branches of government, not one.” To radio host Hugh Hewitt, Huckabee further explained his rejection of the idea of “judicial supremacy, where if the courts make a decision” it is “the law of the land”: “No, it isn’t the law of the land. Constitutionally, the courts cannot make a law. They can interpret one. And then the legislature has to create enabling legislation, and the executive has to sign it, and has to enforce it. ... (State legislatures) would have to create legislation that the governor would sign. If they don’t, then there is not same-sex marriage in that

state. Now, if the federal courts say, well, you’re going to have to do it, well, then, you have a confrontation. At that point, somebody has to decide is the court right? If it is, then the legislation will be passed.”

And if “someone” — who? President Huckabee?

— decides that the court is wrong? In 1957, Arkansas Gov. Orval Faubus decided the federal courts were wrong about integrating Little Rock Central High School, an idea President Eisenhower countered with the 101st Airborne. David A. Graham of The Atlantic notes that if the court rules against a clause of a state’s law defining marriage as a commitment between a man and a woman, this does not invalidate the rest of a state’s marriage laws, so the state’s legislature need not act. Unless, that is, they wish to reassert the pre-Civil War doctrine of “nullification” — the right of states to disregard laws they deem unconstitutional.

For many voters, a party is largely defined by the behavior of its presidential aspirants. For Republicans worried about broadening their party’s appeal, there is one word for Huckabee’s stances: Appalling.

YOUR TURN

Group focuses on housing, mental health

By Rev. Kathy Williams, Rev. John McDermott, Rev. Randy Weinkauf and Rev. Mary Newberg-Gale Justice Matters

Justice Matters is a coalition of 21 faith communities that have crossed racial and economic social lines to come together and address issues of justice in the city of Lawrence. Last fall, we canvassed neighborhoods, trailer parks, and organized over 1,200 people to meaningfully discuss life in our city. We elected first to address issues of affordable housing and mental health, and conducted six months of research into these two matters.

We discovered that the mental health system has eroded across the country, leaving many people with mental illness homeless, in jail, clogging courts, cycling through emergency rooms or victims of suicide. We also learned of perpetual waiting lists in Lawrence for people seeking affordable housing.

That’s just some of the bad news.

The good news is that solutions exist.

Regarding mental illness, three basic ideas emerged. First: collaborative leadership. We have proposed to leaders like David Johnson from Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib, Lawrence Memorial Hospital CEO Gene Meyer, and County Commissioner Mike Gaughan that they draw together other relevant high-ranking officials to craft a comprehensive plan for mental health to meet the needs of the region, and then lead in its implementation. We believe the task of developing a plan together with a deadline and measurable outcomes will foster creative problem-solving, generate ownership, increase partner-

ships, and ultimately lead to a system that works for Lawrence.

Second, we hope Douglas County commissioners will take the lead in creating a place where people experiencing mental health crisis can stabilize and get linked to ongoing treatment. County commissioners called for an investigation into such a place before we even began our research.

We support their initiative on this because we know that crisis leads to tragedy. Suicide is among the top ten causes of death in Douglas County, more common than deaths due to breast cancer and nearly twice as common as car accidents. In addition, half of the homicides in Lawrence last year were linked to mental illness.

Third, we aim to prevent nonviolent individuals from landing in jail due to mental illness. Cities like Memphis have achieved great gains in this area by training law enforcement to handle encounters with people suffering mental illness. Nineteen Lawrence police officers have gone through a similar training, and Chief Khatib recently indicated support for making this mandatory for all officers and staff. We appreciate his leadership in this area, because it is the first line of defense for diverting nonviolent individuals suffering from mental illness away from jail and into treatment. We hope city commissioners will respect Judge Scott Miller’s request for more resources at the Municipal Court to create a mental health and drug docket. With requisite services made available, his court will be able to address the underlying problems that lead people to cycling endlessly through the criminal justice system.

Regarding housing, Lawrence cur-

rently has a waiting list of 624 households seeking affordable housing at Family Promise, Habitat for Humanity, the Douglas County Housing Authority, and Tenants to Homeowners. Four hundred seventy-one other cities have dug their way out of such holes by creating an affordable housing trust fund with dedicated resources. This is a flexible, locally managed, public fund that leverages on average six times its value in other private and publicly funding to build or preserve permanent affordable housing.

Tenants to Homeowners will host a housing conference on July 17 in Lawrence where experts will share how this idea radically impacted the shortage of affordable housing in other parts of the country. We hope all of our city commissioners will attend with the conviction to make such a fund a reality in Lawrence. We offer hope in particular for transitional housing for women fleeing domestic violence, children aging out of foster care, and those in recovery for addiction or mental illness.

Henry Ford famously once said, “Whether you think you can, or think you can’t — you’re right.” We know these are audacious plans but we think Lawrence can rise to successfully address these problems. We encourage the will already present in the community and seek to inspire the will that has not yet arisen. We do so by bringing together 2,000 organized people in support of these ideas.

CIA vet expects attacks U.S. has not done well in subduing the Islamic State WASHINGTON The Islamic State simply inspired the deadly assault by two men on an exhibit of cartoons depicting the prophet Mohammed near Dallas last week, CIA veteran Michael Morell says.

It’s only a matter of time before the jihadist group is likely to be in a position to direct more elaborate attacks on American soil that could result in mass casualties.

“If we don’t get ISIS under control, we’re going to see that kind of attack,” the kind of attack al-Qaeda launched on 9/11, Morell told USA TODAY. U.S. efforts

haven’t been effective in countering the Islamic State’s success in recruiting hundreds of American converts, he says, “and we’re not effective at it because it’s very hard to do.”

Morell was by President George W. Bush’s side at a Florida elementary school in 2001 when the president was told hijacked airliners had crashed into the World Trade Center, and he was in the White House Situation Room with President Obama nearly a decade later when the first word was relayed that Navy

STEVE ELFERS, USA TODAY

Former CIA director Mike Morell says the “Great War” will continue.

SEAL Team Six had killed Osama bin Laden.

LONDON Many popular media notions of what a restless electorate is against (bankers, corporate power, tax dodgers, economic austerity) and what it is for (fundamental change, leveling the

powerful, taxing the rich and big social program promises) came a cropper in the British election last week.

Rather than endorsing this leftward shift in politics — a view arguably now animating the Hillary Clinton campaign for president in the U.S. — voters returned the Conservative Party to No. 10 Downing St. with a heretofore unimaginable majority.

It was, in Britain, a conservative revolt, an unwillingness to play loose with hard-won economic stability, or risk the gains, however small, that have been made over the last few years.

The Conservatives painted a picture of a country that was

moving steadily forward in place.

The Labour opposition painted a picture of a floundering nation that needed to be overhauled and rescued by new spending plans paid for by new tax-the-rich schemes — a view rejected in almost every way.

Labour not only got the mood of the country wrong, but so did the news media. Indeed, part of Labour’s problem was likely to have only seen its future, and understood the ambitions of the electorate, through its own favored media. The left-leaning BBC was wrong; the left-leaning Guardian was wrong; digitally centric Buzzfeed, trying to make inroads in Britain by targeting

news to a young audience, was wrong.

The American pollster Nate Silver, famous for his 2012 U.S. polling, also got it wrong. Conservatives, at least those in Britain, don’t necessarily like to admit they are conservatives. And Obama campaign consultant David Axelrod, hired to advise Labour for $500,000 and offering a strategy of economic populism, was wrong.

Houthi rebels agree to temporary cease-fire in Yemen Fighting will halt to allow aid for civilians Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Yemen’s Houthi rebels and their allies agreed Sunday to a five-day cease-fire offered by the Saudi-led coalition that has been conducting airstrikes on the country, Yemen’s state news agency reported.

The cease-fire is to begin Tuesday to allow humanitarian aid to reach civilians in the Arab world’s poorest country. The bombing campaign began March 26.

All sides in the conflict warned they will retaliate if the cease-fire is broken.

Saudi Arabian King Salman canceled plans Sunday to attend this week’s Arab summit at Camp David with President Obama because of the cease-fire. The White House previously said Obama would meet with Salman a day before Thursday’s summit.

Instead, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, who is also interior minister, will lead the Saudi delegation at the summit of Gulf Cooperation Council countries, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said.

The insurgents’ announcement came as airstrikes continued Sunday and hit the residence of ousted president Ali Abdullah Saleh, who backs the Houthis, in Sanaa, the capital.

Saleh appeared on television afterward, standing in front of the ruins. He urged Yemenis to remain steadfast in the face of Saudi aggression and to beware of spies among them. He also recommended a return to talks.

The conflict in Yemen has killed more than 1,400 people, many of them civilians, since March 19, according to the United Nations.

Raúl Castro ready to go back to church Cuban president gushes after meeting with pope Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Cuban President Raúl Castro met with Pope Francis at the Vatican on Sunday and thanked the pontiff for his role in rekindling relations between the United States and his island nation.

The communist leader said he was so impressed with the pope that “I will go back to praying and go back to the church, and I’m not joking.”

“Bienvenido!” the Argentineborn Francis said in his native Spanish in welcoming Castro, the Associated Press reported. The Cuban president, bowing his head, gripped Francis’ hand with both of his, and the two men began private talks. The meeting GREGORIO BORGIA, AP lasted nearly an hour.

The meeting came about after Francis had written a personal letter to President Obama in the fall and a separate letter to Castro, inviting them to “resolve humanitarian questions of common interest,” according to a Vatican statement.

The Vatican received delegations from both countries in October and helped facilitate a dialogue, resulting in a major U.S. policy shift toward Cuba, including a prisoner swap between the two countries.

The pontiff is scheduled to visit Washington, New York City and Philadelphia starting around Sept. 23.

Francis would be the third pope to visit Cuba, after Pope John Paul II in 1998 and Pope Benedict XVI in 2012.

Fidel Castro met with Pope John Paul II at the Vatican in 1996.

Al-Qaeda didn’t die with Osama bin Laden v CONTINUED FROM 1B

ed use of the Internet means “terrorism has gone viral.”

“It was a mistake to think that al-Qaeda died along with bin Laden in Abbottabad,” Morell says. Though al-Qaeda’s leadership in Afghanistan and Pakistan has been decimated, other branches of the group have thrived, including al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, based in Yemen. “They today have the ability to bring down an airliner in the United States,” Morell says. “If that happened tomorrow, I would not be surprised.”

BOND. JAMES BOND.

Morell, 56, sat down with USA TODAY’s Capital Download newsmaker series at the International Spy Museum in Washington. Every 10 minutes or so at a nearby exhibit, the headlights on the sleek, silver-birch Aston Martin DB5 featured in Goldfinger would flip up, and the sound of the car’s (mock) embedded machine guns would fire.

Morell never really operated in the mode of James Bond. When he joined the CIA at age 22 — a native of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, with an economics degree — he worked as an analyst, not a covert operative. If other parents at his children’s back-to-school nights would ask where he worked, he would tell them. “And then they’d run away,” he says, smiling.

For decades, he found himself at the center of the nation’s biggest crises and most perilous challenges in a career defined in large part by the 9/11 attacks.

SHOWING SUNDAY ON WUSA9 AT 8:30 A.M.

Morell’s quick takes In his 33-year career at the CIA, Michael Morell worked for six presidents and dealt with a range of officials in the United States and abroad. He twice served as acting CIA director.

Morell gave his quick takes on several of the policymakers with whom he had dealt. uPresident George W. Bush: “Very bright. Contrary to the public perception, very bright. Very quick gut reaction to issues and my sense almost always right on the money.” uPresident Obama: “One of the smartest people I’ve ever met. Extremely thorough. Asks extraordinarily good questions.

Very open to what people have to say. Willing to change his mind if he hears a good argument. ... (But) people’s weaknesses flow from their strengths. One of Barack Obama’s great strengths is: ‘Ask all the questions. Let’s get all the information on the table. Let me hear from everybody, right?’ One of the weaknesses of that is it takes longer to make a decision.” uSarah Palin: “I gave her

Morell defends the use of socalled enhanced interrogation — critics call it torture — and blasts as inaccurate the report on the program by the Senate Intelligence Committee that found no evidence the techniques produced significant intelligence.

He says the CIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies misjudged

her first national security briefing (during the 2008 campaign). ...

Her questions about foreign leaders, trying to understand what motivated them, how they think, how she could connect with them — I found those questions really insightful. I found that ... she had virtually no understanding of national security issues. And at the end of the day, that wasn’t her fault. She didn’t have experience, right? And my view, sitting there, was that she had been put in a very, very difficult situation.” uEdward Snowden: “I don’t believe Edward Snowden when he says, ‘The reason I did this (leaked NSA data) was because I was concerned about the privacy and civil-liberties rights of Americans.’ ... I think what motivated Edward Snowden is ... he thought he was one of the most brilliant people around, and he believed that the CIA and the NSA didn’t see that brilliance, and he wanted people to see that brilliance, and that’s why he did what he did.” Do you think he’s guilty of treason? “I do.”

combat extremism.

On the attacks in Benghazi, Libya, that left four Americans dead in 2012, Morell questions why the State Department didn’t respond to an increasing threat by bolstering security for its workers, as the CIA did. But he questions efforts by congressional Republicans to suggest some sort of conspiracy was at play in its aftermath. Benghazi is “the poster child of the intrusion of politics into national security.”

Morell argues that the NSA’s mass collection of metadata on telephone calls in the USA, including by millions of Americans not suspected of any wrongdoing, has been “a very important tool” against terrorism, although he acknowledges it’s hard to point to a particular plot it has disrupted. A federal appeals court concluded last week that the program was illegal, and Congress is debating whether to revise the way it works before it expires June 1.

“If it had been there prior to 9/11, there is a good chance we would have seen those 19 hijackers communicating with each other,” he says. A dozen years later, when the scope of the program was revealed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, the political landscape had changed.

“The public’s reaction to it in 2013 was, ‘Geez, can we trust the government?’ That would have been a completely different reaction in 2001, (when) the 9/11 at-

Former president Jimmy Carter cut short a trip to Guyana and was returning to Atlanta after falling ill, the Carter Center said Sunday.

Carter, 90, was in Guyana as an observer for today’s elections.

“President Carter was not feeling well and has departed Guyana to return to Atlanta today,” the statement said. “The Carter Center election observation mission in Guyana is continuing its work and will keep him informed of developments.”

Carter canceled an elections news conference that had been set for Sunday. No details on his illness were released.

Carter and his center have been involved in observation of about 100 elections around the world.

tacks had just happened.” Then, he speculates, “the reaction would have been, ‘This sounds just great, sounds like exactly what we need.’ ” ‘HE’S IN MOSCOW’

Morell is withering toward Snowden: “If he really believes what he says, that the American people need to debate these issues and the American people need to decide whether these programs are right, then he should be willing to come home and have those same American people judge his actions. Where is he? He’s in Moscow.”

He also is scathing about efforts by Vice President Dick Cheney and a top aide, Lewis “Scooter” Libby, to press the argument after the 9/11 attacks that there were links between al-Qaeda and Iraq. When the CIA formally concluded there were not, he says, Libby demanded the agency withdraw the paper.

Even after the agency refused to back off, Cheney continued to imply a link in public. “The impact was huge,” Morell recalls, contributing to the belief by a majority of Americans that Iraq had a role in the Sept. 11 attacks.

“I was having dinner with my own father a year after the war started in Iraq, and I said something that even raised a question about whether this was the right thing to do or not,” Morell recalls.

“My father slammed his hand down on the table until the silverware jumped off, and he said: ‘But Iraq did 9/11!’ I said, ‘No, they didn’t, Dad. I know. Trust me. I know.’ ” Corrections & Clarifications

NATION/WORLD POLICE SHOOTINGS

Fourth Miss. suspect arrested Officers killed at routine traffic stop Saturday

Tim Doherty and Jason Munz Hattiesburg (Miss.) American HATTIESBURG , MISS .

Authorities confirmed Sunday that a fourth suspect was arrested in connection with the fatal Saturday night shooting of two Hattiesburg, Miss., police officers.

Cornelius Clark, age unavailable, was arrested Sunday afternoon and charged with obstruction of justice, Mississippi Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain said.

Officers Benjamin Deen, 34, and Liquori Tate, 25. were shot and killed during a routine traffic stop. Three suspects were arrested hours later, authorities said.

Strain said Marvin Banks, 29, and Joanie Calloway, 22, were each charged with two counts of capital murder. Banks was also charged with one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm.

In addition, he was charged with grand theft for fleeing in the police cruiser after the shooting, Strain said.

“He absconded with a Hattiesburg police cruiser. He didn’t get very far, three or four blocks and then he ditched that vehicle,” Strain said.

Banks’ brother, Curtis Banks, 26, was charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of capital murder.

Lamar County authorities arrested Marvin Banks at a motel shortly before 1 a.m. Sunday.

Curtis Banks was arrested around 3 a.m. at an apartment complex.

Strain said one officer stopped a 2000 Gold Cadillac Escalade in an industrial corridor about 8:30 p.m. Saturday. A second officer arrived as backup. Hattiesburg residents Tamika Mills and Pearnell Roberts drove past the scene of the shooting, discovered the two officers and called 911.

“Never in my life have I expe-

“So I backed up. That’s when we noticed the officer was down.

We just saw that one, but in the course of me being on the phone with 911, I turned and I saw another officer across the street rolling on the ground. (Roberts) ran across the street to check on him.

ELECTIONS

Republicans have lots of choices to ponder in 2016’s packed field David Jackson USA TODAY GREENVILLE ,

S . C.

Republican primary voters face an unusual test in 2016.

Multiple choice.

The party that usually features well-established favorites in its primary races is now looking at a free-for-all with more than a dozen aspirants, each of whom facing his — and her — own unique test: Standing out in a very crowded field.

“It feels like anybody can just jump in!” said Kirstin Griffin, 43, a Greenville preschool teacher’s aide who listened to some of the candidates at a weekend forum in upstate South Carolina.

“I think it’s good,” she added.

“Everyone has to prove themselves.”

That’s what brought Scott Walker, Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, Bobby Jindal, Ben Carson, John Bolton, George Pataki, Carly Fiorina and Donald Trump to a weekend “Freedom Summit” in downtown Greenville. It’s why Jeb Bush delivered a commencement address at Virginia’s Liberty University, the religious school founded by Jerry Falwell.

In the coming months, candidates such as Rand Paul and Mike Huckabee — and perhaps Chris Christie, Lindsey Graham and John Kasich, as well — will travel to Pizza Ranches in Iowa, high schools in New Hampshire and barbecue pits in South Carolina.

They’ll be giving interviews to local media, making online sales pitches, and — for those who can afford it — cutting spots for local radio and television ads.

Conservative supporters applaud during the Freedom Summit in Greenville, S.C. The GOP is looking at a free-for-all in 2016.

“I am looking for charisma in a candidate. You have to communicate effectively.”

Dan Herren, ad account manager in South Carolina

In August, the crowded Republican field will try to draw contrasts in what likely will be the

most important encounters: debates.

All this activity has a single goal: getting attention from voters in early caucus and primary states.

“I am looking for charisma in a candidate,” said Dan Herren, 43, an advertising account manager for radio stations in South Carolina. “You have to communicate effectively.”

Herren and other South Carolina Republicans who watched candidates at the Peace Center for the performing arts said they want a nominee who can forcefully carry the conservative mes-

sage on issues like immigration, reducing the federal debt and fighting terrorism.

They’re also looking for someone who can actually win the general election in 2016, probably against Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.

“Let’s face it,” Herren said.

“Hillary Clinton is a lot like her husband. ... She can communicate very well.”

Katie Stoddard, 31, a public relations specialist from Greenwood, S.C., said that, right now, the Republican candidates are stuck on “talking points” and giving people “a lot of the same-oldsame-old.” At some point, she said, the GOP contenders will have to start giving voters more specifics.

“Fundraising is going to be big,” she added.

Also big is the series of Republican Party-sponsored debates expected to begin in August.

“That’s going to separate the men from the boys, as they say,” said Peggy James, 78, a retired retail manager from Mauldin, S.C. Sipping a Pepsi in the lobby of the Peace Center, James said candidates have to prove to GOP voters they have sufficient “fire in the belly” for a successful run.

Labour’s courting of youth vote backfired v CONTINUED FROM 1B

clined electorate, were more accurate.

Perhaps the high point of wrongness in the campaign was in the week before the vote. It was the well-publicized, middleof-the-night meeting of Labour’s leader and would-be prime minister Ed Miliband with Russell Brand, the entertainer famous for pseudo-revolutionary positions, 9/11 conspiracy theories and a big social media following. The Brand meeting was reportedly an Axelrod idea designed to court the youth vote. Indeed, there was a surge of youthful registration, but with few of those votes going to Labour.

It was the U.K. Independence Party, the far-right, anti-immigration party that was once assumed would undercut the Conservative vote, that in fact siphoned off many more votes from Labour.

UKIP’s Labour votes were a kind of replay of 1980’s Reagan Democrats.

Labour’s leftward position was not only a wrong move but also a carefully calculated one. Since the days of Margaret Thatcher, the British political grail had been that Labour only had a hope of ruling the country if it forsook its trade union roots and found a centrist, business-tolerant tone.

That was the success of Tony Blair’s new Labour — 13 years in power as Bill Clinton-esque centrists.

Miliband’s promise, on the other hand, was to take Labour back to its left-wing roots and offer voters a clear choice. And Labour’s rejection and rout seemed to be a rather striking demonstration of how, as the right-leaning Daily Mail put it, “Middle England rose up to humiliate the pollsters and save the nation from Red Ed.” Labour’s critique of the British economy — much of it coming from American liberal economists Paul Krugman and Joseph Stiglitz — was that British austerity, by ignoring the benefits of

deficit spending, had produced a shrinking living standard. But that argument had a hard time withstanding the 2 million jobs

created under the Tory (Conservative Party) government and U.K.’s place as the fastest growing economy in Europe. (Krugman, a key figure in policymaking for U.S. Democrats, continued to rail against the British Tories and their economic policies as late as the day of the British election.)

And then there is Scotland, portending a whole different sort of conservatism. The Scottish National Party, itself strongly trade union oriented and traditionally left wing, nevertheless all but

obliterated the Labour Party’s historic dominance in Scotland.

The issue was pure nationalism, arguably at a level never before seen in a developed modern nation. Fifty-six of Scotland’s 59 seats in Parliament are now formally dedicated not to the welfare of the United Kingdom but exclusively to Scotland’s interests.

It was a line in the sand: The English, in a sense, proclaiming their own particular and conservative Englishness, against the breakaway Scots, insisting on their own forceful identity — much of that being about distaste for the English.

Against the background of the liberal faith in ever-quickening social change, the powers of new technology and a conviction that a new generation of progressive thinkers can best rule in a global world, the British seemed rather more happy to embrace the devil they know. In Scotland, too, it was a rejection of the liberal and the global for the new fever of local identity.

Out of nowhere, right in the middle of all the barbershops and beauty salons and the storefront churches that line the road, a quaint little tea shop opened one day.

It sure seemed out of place.

This is McNichols on Detroit’s west side, a faded retail strip with little more than the kind of businesses that remain after all the other ones have left — hair and nail salons, shabby auto repair shops, liquor stores.

The sudden appearance of a place devoted to the delicate manners of an old-fashioned tradition left neighbors scratching their heads. “ ‘Why are you here?’ Someone asked me that,” said Darlene Alston, the owner of Just A Bit Eclectic tea shop. “ ‘Why aren’t you downtown? This is not the right neighborhood for this kind of place.’ ” She was standing behind the counter inside her shop, brewing hibiscus tea for a customer typing on her laptop.

“I think the neighborhood deserves this,” she said, surrounded by dainty tea cups and teapots on wall shelves, inside cabinets and set out on tables.

“This is what a neighborhood should be. It should have places like this.”

Darlene Alston opened Just A Bit Eclectic in 2013.

In a city whose residents feel the neighborhoods have largely missed out on Detroit’s renaissance, few people are opening places like this in a neighborhood like this.

But Alston is gambling that the presence of this little tea shop here might by itself set a different tone, shift the dynamic and suggest to others that life can be made better in the neighborhoods right now, that there’s no need to wait for the city to come help them.

“This can be a bustling business area as well,” she said. “Because they do it in Ferndale, they do it in Royal Oak, they do it in Birmingham. Why not here?”

And in trying to do that here, in this west-side neighborhood, her shop has become more to the community than just a place to drink some tea.

Job growth last month shifted to higher-paying positions in a sign of a broadening labor market recovery.

Professional and business services, construction and health care led the solid 223,000 job gains reported by the Labor Department on Friday. Retail and leisure and hospitality lagged.

Both have been engines of payroll gains through most of the U.S. employment upswing since 2010.

“We’re seeing more quality jobs,” says Diane Swonk, chief economist of Mesirow Financial.

The trend, she says, partly reflects a widening recovery that includes a pickup in full-time positions.

Professional and business ser-

vices added 62,000 jobs in April, with strong advances in computer systems design, management and technical consulting, and architectural and engineering services.

The construction industry added 45,000 jobs, the most in 15 months, and its payrolls are up 4.6% the past 12 months, compared to a 2.2% rise for total U.S. employment. Average hourly earnings in the sector are $27.28 — $2.41 higher than the average for all private-sector workers.

Although single-family housing starts have been sluggish, spending on multifamily building was up 27% in the first quarter, says Ken Simonson, chief economist of trade group Associated General Contractors. Office construction is also up sharply as companies consolidate locations and renovate, he says. And strong

Contractors shed 2 million workers in the recession. But in April, the number of unemployed construction workers looking for jobs hit a 10-year low of 652,000, down from 796,000 a year ago. Simonson predicts construction firms will add about 325,000 jobs

this year, roughly matching 2014’s strong gains.

Health care is also hiring at a brisker pace after cost efficiencies linked to the Affordable Care Act slowed growth in 2013 and part of 2014, says economist Sophia Koropeckyj of Moody’s Analytics.

Many providers have adjusted to the new law, she says. And the legislation is adding millions of new customers to coverage rolls.

The health care industry added 226,000 jobs the past six months, up from 164,000 the previous six months.

Retail, meanwhile, added just 12,100 jobs in April, less than half the average of the previous three months.

Leisure and hospitality added 17,000 and the sector’s average monthly additions of 24,000 so far this year are well below last year’s 40,000.

TRAVEL

Business travelers gripe more

Report says they are more likely to complain than leisure fliers

BUSINESS TRAVELERS MORE VOCAL Although business and leisure travelers report similar satisfaction levels with airlines, business travelers are almost twice as likely to file a complaint.

Charisse Jones USA TODAY

Satisfaction with airlines:

When business travelers aren’t happy, airlines are likely to get an earful.

According to a report from the American Customer Satisfaction Index, those flying on business have the same level of satisfaction with airlines as their vacation-going peers. The industry scored a 69 with both groups of travelers on the ACSI’s 100-point scale.

However, 20% of business fliers said they had lodged an official complaint in 2015, nearly double the 11% of leisure travelers who did the same.

“Business fliers fly more, they pay more ... they have higher expectations of how they’re going to be treated,” says David VanAmburg, ACSI’s managing director.

“They tend therefore to complain more.”

Airlines, in turn, appear to do a better job of addressing business travelers’ gripes. When asked how well their most recent complaint was handled, airlines scored a 59 from corporate trekkers on the ACSI index, while those flying for personal reasons gave the industry 51 out of 100 points.

It makes fiscal sense that airlines might be a bit more responsive to corporate fliers who disproportionately contribute more to their bottom line, VanAmburg says.

“I think the airlines probably have it about right in that they know who they should be focus-

ASK THE CAPTAIN

Systems for oxygen masks are very reliable John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

Q: How often are passenger air masks tested, and how do you know if air is really flowing?

— Terry Miller, Idaho Falls, Idaho A: Most modern passenger oxygen systems use chemical oxygen generators. When the mask reaches its fully extended position, it releases a spring that strikes a cap and initiates the chemical production of oxygen.

This is a highly reliable system.

During heavy maintenance checks, approximately once a year, the generators are inspected. There is also a limit on their total usage.

Q: If oxygen masks are deployed and you’re traveling with an infant, what is the protocol? Are you supposed to “share your air” with the infant? Also curious about the same topic when you are traveling with an animal.

— Ashley Covey, Atlanta A: Most airplanes have an extra mask in each row for an infant, or a passenger or flight attendant walking up the aisle. As mentioned in the safety briefing, put your mask on first before attempting to help others, including an infant.

The additional mask could also be used for an animal.

Q: I have seen movies where the cabin loses pressure and masks pop down.

What would cause this situation? — Dave, Detroit A: There are situations where the cabin depressurizes and the emergency oxygen system deploys, but they’re rare. The causes for a depressurization are varied — the failure of an outflow valve, a failure in the skin of the airplane (rare, but it has happened), or loss of pressurized air. I have only had a depressurization once.

Cox is a retired airline captain and runs his own aviation safety consulting company, Safety Operating Systems.

A report says business fliers are almost twice as likely to file a complaint as leisure travelers. ing on, and with apologies to leisure travelers, it’s not them,” he says. “You’re going to go with where the money is, and that’s what airlines are doing. They’re finding small ways to provide a little better service to those from whom they make the most money.”

The chances that business travelers will have something to complain about also are higher given how often many of them fly.

“Every time you fly, you’re rolling the dice,” VanAmburg says.

“You fly once a month, those chances just mount that the bag might get lost, or the plane is delayed because of a storm, or there’s an unpleasant customer next to you that might make you unhappier with the experience.”

Kevin Mitchell, founder of the Business Travel Coalition, said corporate trekkers expect airlines

to address their concerns. “They come from a corporate cultural perspective that requires accountability,” he says, “and they assume because of their loyalty program status that they will be listened to, and perhaps, compensated in some way for their poor experience.”

Greg Jones, a management consultant who lives in Conroe, Texas, and is a member of USA TODAY’s Road Warriors panel, has lodged complaints. But he doesn’t believe that he should get extra attention just because he’s a frequent flier.

“I do not believe I should get extra service because I’m a frequent flier,” he says. “But we are entitled to good customer service. ... Airlines should do better at customer service because it is good business.”

Victoria Day, spokeswoman for

the trade group Airlines for America, says that is the industry’s goal.

“Airlines strive to provide excellent customer service to all their customers, business and leisure, throughout all steps of the airline journey,” she says. “And all businesses (and) industries tend to have more interactions with their most frequent customers.

Airlines are no different.’

Business fliers tend to be more satisfied once they’re perched in their seat and ordering meals or tapping into in-flight entertainment. The quality of those onboard services got a score of 70 from corporate trekkers, compared with 68 from leisure fliers.

“You’re going to have a larger percentage of business travelers in business class who will be getting, by the airline’s own admission, a higher quality of service,”

VanAmburg says. “That’s why it’s business class and they’re paying more for it.”

But when it comes to the quality of hotel amenities, from entertainment options to the room itself, the views are often reversed. For instance, room quality scored a 79 on the index among business travelers, and an 82 among leisure travelers.

That might have a lot to do with what each group is looking for in a hotel, with business travelers often more interested in convenience than luxury.

For leisure travelers, “the hotel becomes a more intricate part of the vacation,” VanAmburg says, noting that they may seek out a property because it has a pool or spot on the beach. “Business travelers are picking (a hotel) based on how close it is to the airport or to the meeting place.”

Extra, extra! Some airlines push limits Nuisance fees may be behind recent rise in passenger complaints

Airlines are required by law to disclose their fees. But they don’t always do it in a customer-friendly way.

Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

ON TRAVEL EVERY MONDAY

Margaret Waldman’s surprise airline “refund fee” is a mystery. Solving it could be a bad sign

for all of us.

Waldman, a retired writer who lives in Oakland, Calif., decided to cancel a recent flight to Spain, which should have been no problem. The Department of Transportation (DOT) has a 24-hour rule that says most tickets have to be refunded if you notify the airline within a day. Fully refunded.

Instead, Iberia charged Waldman a $25 fee.

“Iberia’s customer service department told me this is standard company policy,” she says. “My understanding is this is against the law.”

Is it my imagination, or are the number of complaints about nuisance airline fees on the rise?

It’s hard to tell. The government doesn’t track complaint data on fees. But it does have a complaint category for “ticketing” and “customer service” — two areas where fee-grievances are likely to be filed. And the number of complaints in those categories climbed from 3,736 in 2013 to 3,966 last year.

A likely culprit: Nuisance fees.

This relatively new strain of surcharges, quietly imposed on unwitting airline passengers, are often hard to explain and even harder to justify. They can include extras like Waldman’s refund fee, mandatory-looking airline seat fees or higher fees for items passengers already pay for, like luggage.

Waldman’s puzzle took a little time to solve. Turns out the flight for which she wanted a refund was within Europe. So the DOT’s 24-hour refund rule — which requires reservations to be held at the quoted fare without payment, or canceled without penalty, for at least 24 hours after a reserva-

ANTONIO HEREDIA, BLOOMBERG

HOW TO NOT GET STUCK WITH A NUISANCE FEE uFly the airlines that are up front about prices. Carriers such as Southwest Airlines include the price of two bags in their fare. “Ultra” low-cost airlines like Spirit Airlines and Frontier Airlines charge extra for anything that isn’t nailed down, including a carry-on bag.

JetBlue has built a reputation as an airline that didn’t nickeland-dime passengers, but it’s shifting to a fee-based fare system.

tion is made — didn’t apply.

Consuelo Arias, a spokesman for Iberia, said the airline allows passengers to hold a reservation for a day. After that, it imposes a refund fee on certain tickets.

Arias said Iberia had done Waldman a favor by refunding her ticket. Technically, it was completely non-refundable.

“Once the ticket has been issued, the normal fare conditions apply,” he says. “This ticket wasn’t refundable, nor could it be changed. We did refund it, but did apply the refund fee.”

uRead the fine print. Airlines are required by law to disclose their fees. They don’t always do it in a customer-friendly way, so you have to pay close attention when booking online, or ask questions when buying a ticket by phone. That’s where the nuisance fees flourish. Make sure you cover the basics, such as luggage fees, seat reservation fees and charges for items like boarding passes.

money for a seat assignment.

“When did they start charging for seats?” she asks. “That’s news to me.”

Technically, Frontier charges extra if you want to reserve a seat, according to the airline.

But that’s not the message LeBon received. When she refused to pay $4 to $16 per seat, a large pop-up appeared on her computer screen. “ARE YOU SURE?” it asked. “Ensure you aren’t separated from your pals or family.

Prices may be higher at check-in.”

To her, that looked like Frontier

Not everyone is down on the new fees. After all, when fees rise, fares sometimes fall.

All of which brings us to Frontier Airlines. It’s been exploring the “frontiers” of fees lately, much to the displeasure of passengers such as Cherylyn LeBon. She paid $868 for four tickets from Washington to Las Vegas on the Denver-based airline recently.

LeBon, who is traveling with two young children, expected to pay more for her luggage, but when she finished her reservation, it also asked her to shell out extra

might charge her even more for a seat when she got to the airport, at best — and at worst that it would ensure she would be separated from her family if she didn’t act now. So she paid $16 for each seat.

Frontier is pushing the limits when it comes to other fees, too.

Earlier this month, it raised luggage fees, even though fuel prices had fallen. Fees for bags paid for through Frontier’s call centers, at

the airport, or through another website, jumped by $5 a bag. And the “gate check” fee for a bag carried to the gate that exceeds the permitted dimensions for carryon luggage rose from $50 to $60, according to the airline.

Lately, airlines haven’t even bothered to explain these surcharges. They do it because they can.

Of course, not everyone is down on the new fees. After all, when fees rise, fares sometimes fall. Nash’s position, after first being stung by Spirit Airlines’ notorious fees.

“Now that I’ve been flying them a few times, I appreciate that I only pay for the services I want,” says Nash, an education consultant from Madison, Wis. “I do not pay $3 for a can of soda.

Once I learned their system, I appreciate their bare-fare approach to only pay for what is actually important to me.”

The only clear winners in this game are the airlines. Most passengers will pay higher prices.

ROYALS REPORT A ROYAL CHRISTENING Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella, the 5-month-old twins of Prince Albert II of Monaco and his wife, Princess Charlene, were baptized to much fanfare Sunday in Monaco. The couple stepped out after the ceremony and held their children, clad in white christening gowns and bonnets, as thousands cheered, hoping to get a look at the royals.

A female rocker from the 1980s is getting a modern makeover but is still truly outrageous.

The live-action Jem and the Holograms movie (in theaters Oct. 23) brings the glam and glitter of the 1985-88 musical cartoon — and Hasbro doll line — that little girls were wowed by 30 years ago while also creating a coming-of-age origin story for the YouTube generation.

Director Jon M. Chu (G.I. Joe: Retaliation) says the film is bigger than the rise of Jerrica Benton (Nashville’s Aubrey Peeples) as a pink-haired pop princess.

“It’s actually about young people who are going to be inundated with this idea of fame and fortune, and within all that, how do you stay true to who you really are?” he says. “That’s the real soul of the movie.”

Adds Peeples: “The whole thing is just quirky and cool and badass.”

The music is still contagious and Jem also throws in a hefty bit of ’80s nostalgia — and not just the frequent use of keytars. “Brat Pack” veteran Molly Ringwald even plays Aunt Bailey, the guard-

ian of Jerrica, her sister Kimber (Stefanie Scott) and foster siblings Aja (Hayley Kiyoko) and Shana (Aurora Perrineau), who make up the Holograms group.

Jerrica is definitely a 21st-century sort of girl, who finds ways to make music even though she’s frightened of the stage, Chu says.

Though she doesn’t want to be “out there” as a superstar, Jerrica is forced to embrace the over-thetop Jem alter ego to take care of her family after her father’s death, says Peeples. “In a way, it helps her hide and have the confidence to (perform).”

Still, Chu adds, Jerrica worries that people will judge her because she doesn’t see herself as Jem. “We see the transformation as she gets brought into it, getting seduced by it, and at the same time trying to find her real self in

Ryan Guzman co-stars as the love interest Rio, while Juliette Lewis is the antagonist Erica Raymond, a Starlight Music record executive and the kind of person “tempting you with everything you really do want and need deep down somewhere in your dark place,” Chu says.

Executive-produced by micro-

budget filmmaker Jason Blum and Justin Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun, whose contacts Chu raided to commission original songs, Jem was a hard property to tackle, Chu acknowledges.

For every fan of the retro cartoon’s random music videos, villainous punk-rock Misfits and hologram-with-a-headband Synergy, there’s somebody new who has no clue what Jem is or was.

The key for Chu was finding a way to explore the Jerrica/Jem dynamic in 2015. “How can you even have a secret identity with all this social media?” the director asks. “It dawned on us: Wait, everybody has a secret identity.

The idea of ‘Who are you really?’ is more relevant today than ever.

“That’s what inspired me to say, ‘Let’s roll the dice and try to make this movie.’ ”

NBC will add six new series to a fall schedule that sports just a single hour of comedy — on lowrated Fridays.

The lineup, to be unveiled to advertisers Monday, includes a planned revamp of Heroes, its 2006-10 drama, with a largely new cast, and a live variety series hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, based on a U.K. format, that includes sketches and music.

New dramas are Heartbreaker, with Melissa George as a heart surgeon; The Player, about a Las Vegas security expert starring Wesley Snipes and Philip Winchester that will follow The Blacklist; and Blindspot, about an amnesiac whose tattoo-covered body has clues to crimes, which gets the network’s best time slot, Mondays after The Voice.

Jamie Alexander will star as Jane Doe, an amnesiac whose body tattoos are a road map to crimes, in Blindspot.

Fridays, paired with People Are Talking, about a friendship of two couples, starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tone Bell.

Among midseason series, NBC has : a sequel to Coach, the 1990s sitcom; Chicago Med, a second spinoff of Chicago Fire; and Shades of Blue, with Jennifer Lopez as a New York detective.

In a weak freshman class, only Debra Messing’s The Mysteries of Laura will be back for a second.

Bunker mentality

Practice facilities new twist at Eagle Bend

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

One of the most difficult things about attempting to solve the game of golf is that it can be difficult to recreate on-course challenges in a practice environment.

That might not be quite as tough for Lawrence golfers starting this summer thanks to Eagle Bend Golf Course superintendent Darin Pearson and his staff and supporters.

Pearson, now in his fifth year in charge of the evermaturing course, has upgraded Eagle Bend’s practice facilities by adding a practice area just south of the driving range and north of the clubhouse. The new facility features an 11,000-square-foot

Pearson, who has led the charge to upgrade everything from the course’s fairways and greens to snack bar and pro shop, said he never imagined he would be able to dive into a project like this so quickly when he first took over. But the combination of wanting to continue to spruce up the course and emphasize Eagle Bend’s status as a learning center fast-tracked the idea.

Local ‘palace’ to host hoops tourney

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Plans continue for the Sunflower Showcase — a fixture at Okun Fieldhouse in Shawnee the past several years — to be moved to the new Sports Pavilion Lawrence at Rock Chalk Park this summer.

The July 23-26 youth basketball event, which is sanctioned by the NCAA, would bring a number of recruits and major and mid-major college coaches to Lawrence.

That’s because the 12-andunder to 17-and-under agegroup tourney is held during an open recruiting period.

“Once I heard about the new facility being built, I immediately called and booked the July weekend,” said Chad Rader, a Kansas University graduate who collaborated with Missouri grad Mike Enright to bring the event to Lawrence.

“What better place to host a basketball tournament than in Lawrence?

“And it’s a palace,” Rader exclaimed of Sports Pavilion Lawrence.

In previous years, the Showcase has featured teams such as Oklahoma’s Athlete’s First and the St. Louis Eagles, who last year brought Arizona’s Allonzo Trier and uncommitted Jayson Tatum to Okun. Other teams on Nike EYBL circuit as well as the Under Armour Association and Adidas Uprising likely will be on hand.

“We look to bring teams that we’ve built relationships with in the past, which include EYBL and Under Armour teams,” said Rader, who worked for the JournalWorld as a sports writer in the 1990s. “Overall, we look for a nice blend of teams that are local and can appreciate the venue and bring families and fans, along with high-level talent around the country.”

Names of specific teams and recruits attending the 2015 Showcase will be released later.

“College coaches like attending this event because there is good talent in all recruiting classes,” Enright said. “We don’t focus on only seniors-to-be. We’ll bring in good teams with recruits in the 2017 and 2018 classes, too. We’ve had two committed teams tell me that Kansas coaches have contacted them about a Please see TOURNEY, page 3C

Déjà vu: KU gets familiar berth J-W Staff Reports

In what is becoming a rite of late spring, Kansas University’s softball team is headed back to the NCAA Tournament.

In Columbia, Missouri.

With the potential to face former Border War foe Missouri.

The Jayhawks earned their second consecutive NCAA bid — and second straight trip to Columbia — during the tournament’s selection show on Sunday night.

KU (38-13) will face Lou-

isville (30-17) in the opening round of the double-elimination regional Friday at University Field.

“It’s exciting this year because last year we were still on the bubble, and we weren’t sure if we were going to make it in,” KU senior infielder Chanin Naudin said. “But this year was a little bit of a relief to know that we did enough during the season to where it wasn’t such a stress and weren’t sure if our season was over yet. It’s fun to realize that we have more games to play.”

Longtime former conference foe Missouri is the regional host and No. 10 national seed.

“I’m really excited for our team,” KU coach Megan Smith said. “I think they’ve worked extremely hard, played a tough schedule and did an unbelievable job with our tough schedule. So, definitely deserving of the bid, and we’re excited to go back to Columbia to play some great teams from the ACC and the SEC. I am proud of our girls, and we’re going to

Players victory

Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. (ap) — The latest survey was unanimous, not anonymous.

Rickie Fowler can deliver the goods.

Facing a five-shot deficit with six holes to play, Fowler produced the greatest finish in the 34-year history of the TPC Sawgrass. In a three-man playoff on three of the most visually intimidating holes in golf, he never backed down.

And when he faced that nervous shot over the water to an island for the third time Sunday, he was as good as ever.

No, there was nothing overrated about this kid.

Criticized in an anonymous Fowler survey by some of his peers for not being able to win, Fowler answered with a captivating victory at The Players Championship. At a tournament that dresses up like a major, Fowler looked the part in beating the strongest field in golf with an array of shots that won’t be forgotten.

As for that survey?

“I laughed at the poll,” he said. “But yeah, if there was any question, I think this right here answers anything you need to know.”

It was hard work.

He took six shots on the par-3 17th hole, which is not unusual for a Sunday except that Fowler played it three times. And even with the record-setting finish at the Stadium Course — birdieeagle-birdie-birdie on the last four holes for a 5-under 67 — Fowler still had to face Sergio Garcia and Kevin Kisner, who produced big shots of their own.

For the first time, The Players went to a three-hole aggregate playoff starting on the par5 16th, where earlier Fowler hit a 3-wood into the breeze to 30 inches for an eagle that made this moment possible.

They all made pars on the 16th.

Kisner rolled in a breaking 10-foot birdie putt on the island-green 17th to keep pace with Fowler, who hit his tee shot to 6 feet and converted the birdie. Garcia, who in regulation made a 45-foot birdie to give him new life, failed to repeat the putt from about the same range in the playoff. All three players made par on the final hole, which eliminated Garcia.

Fowler and Kisner, who closed with a 69 and lost for the second time in a month in a playoff, headed back to the 17th hole for the third time. The great shots kept coming. Kisner barely cleared the mound and the ball settled 12 feet away.

Fowler answered by taking on the right side of the green and sticking it just inside 5 feet.

Kisner finally missed.

It was the second time in a month that Kisner, winless in 102 starts, lost in a playoff despite making clutch putts.

“Golf is a hard and cruel game,” Kisner said. “But hats off. I mean, shoot, these guys are good, I’m telling you. Don’t give up on anybody.”

Fowler never seemed to miss over the final two hours, and he calmly clutched his fist to celebrate his first PGA Tour victory in three years.

“I’ve been waiting a long time for this,” Fowler said. “Back in the winner’s circle.”

Garcia, who had a two-shot lead heading to the back nine, closed with a 68. He had a 20foot birdie putt to win in regulation that missed badly to the right.

Royals win in 10 Detroit (ap) — Greg Holland worked out of a bases-loaded, nobody-out jam in the bottom of the 10th inning, and the Kansas City Royals held on for a 2-1 win over the Detroit Tigers early today in a game that was delayed 103 minutes by rain.

Omar Infante’s sacrifice fly in the top of the 10th put the Royals ahead, but Holland allowed a

single and two walks to start the bottom half.

Hernan Perez — batting because Miguel Cabrera had been removed for a pinch-runner the previous inning — bounced into a 5-2-3 double play, but another walk to Victor Martinez loaded the bases again.

Holland then struck out Yoenis Cespedes for his sixth save in six chances.

JOEY LOGANO PASSES BY A “SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS” BILLBOARD during the NASCAR Sprint Cup series auto race Saturday at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas.

Are you ready, kids?

————

NASCAR reaches out to next generation Kansas City, Kan. (ap) — On a muggy Saturday afternoon, two children dragged their parents through the garage area at Kansas Speedway, intent on catching up to a hero they had seen only on television.

They weren’t after Jeff Gordon or Jimmie Johnson, though. They were after a giant, yellow Nickelodeon character — better known as SpongeBob SquarePants — whose name was attached to the Sprint Cup race featuring Gordon, Johnson and the sport’s biggest stars that night.

It was exactly what the children’s TV network wanted out of its partnership with NASCAR — and just what NASCAR wanted out of the SpongeBob SquarePants 400.

“You know, you’re always looking for a younger demographic,” Sprint Cup star Clint Bowyer said, “and what better way to attract that younger demographic? I can’t imagine any younger kid not wanting to come to the SpongeBob SquarePants race.”

NASCAR has been trying to reach younger demographics for years, particularly as stars such as Gordon close in on retirement. The fan base that brought about the racing boom of the 1990s and early 2000s has started to age, and filling that void has become a priority.

That’s why a few years ago NASCAR announced an industry action plan designed to attract younger and more diverse fans. It began with a rebuffed website and mobile apps, inviting more mainstream celebrities to races, and providing concerts and other ancillary entertainment.

Johnson’s gamble pays in rain-delayed win Kansas City, Kan. (ap) — Jimmie Johnson pulled into victory lane after his late-race gamble paid off to win the rain-delayed Sprint Cup race at Kansas Speedway, then pulled out his cellphone and tried to dial his wife in the first few minutes of Mother’s Day. “Then I caught her on FaceTime,” Johnson said, “and she was NOT so happy to be on FaceTime with all those people around. I think the signal went out — or she hung up on me.”

There’s a good chance Chandra will forgive him.

Johnson, so dominant on mile-and-a-half tracks, held off Kevin Harvick as the clock struck midnight heading into Sunday. They were chased across the line

by Johnson’s Hendrick Motorsports teammates Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jeff Gordon after a dramatic final few laps.

Most of the leaders had been conserving fuel after pitting with 58 to go, right on the upper end of the pit window, That was just the start of the outreach, though.

NASCAR has also opened its garages to children accompanied by parents on race days, allowing them to get closer to the cars and drivers. It lowered age limits on some regional competitions, giving upand-coming drivers a chance to compete earlier. And it embraced social media, fantasy racing and online simulators such as iRacing that are popular with younger demographics.

right-side tires and fuel, and Martin Truex Jr. got a splash of gas.

“It just dawned on me: We’ve won two races, we’re locked in the Chase, points don’t matter. We’re going for the win,” Johnson said. “It was just sort of a gut feeling, splitsecond.”

Johnson built a lead on the restart with six laps left, but Harvick sped around Earnhardt on his fresh tires down the front stretch, setting his sights on the lead.

“They had the most raw speed,” said Johnson’s crew chief, Chad Knaus.

Harvick bobbled just Colin E. Braley/AP Photo slightly at one point on JIMMIE JOHNSON the back stretch, though, HOISTS THE TROPHY for giving Johnson a little winning the SpongeBob more space.

12 laps left. Johnson Harvick still extended was among those who his points lead over pressed their luck by Truex heading into next staying on the track, week’s All-Star race at while Harvick went in for Charlotte.

The push toward a younger demographic in some ways mirrors the push that NASCAR made toward women in the 1980s and ‘90s, which ultimately succeeded in growing the brand.

“This is really cool to engage the youth and bring in a new fan to NASCAR, and that is an important aspect for all of us, for all our partners moving forward in the sport,” said Michael McDowell, whose No. 95 car had Larry the Lob-

couple of their 2017 and 2018 recruits, and Mizzou just offered one of the top 2018 recruits that will be playing in the Sunflower Showcase.”

The Showcase has tried to land teams with players area colleges are recruiting, including KU. Several years ago, the “Jayhawk Invitational” drew large crowds at Haskell’s Coffin Complex and other gyms in Lawrence when meet organizers were able to attract players considering KU in recruiting, such as Shabazz Muhammad, Mitch McGary and, way back, the amazing trio of Corey Maggette, JaRon Rush and Korleone Young.

The Jayhawk tourney moved to the KC area several years ago.

“I’d be lying to say if we didn’t seek players with offers from Kansas, as it would create an even better atmosphere for the event in Lawrence,” Rader said. “But we also are looking at K-State, Wichita State and others with local interest so they get to experience the area, and players with a lot of interest from a variety of schools, whether locally or nationally. In the end, you want players with an array of offers throughout the country and competitive teams to make a quality event.”

Rader started and oversees 810 Varsity, the high school sports entity affiliated with KC radio station 810 WHB. He also organized the Best of the Midwest Showcase, which brought in schools to KC’s Municipal Auditorium last January, including Free State.

also hopes people in town will be inspired to load up their clubs and head out to the course for unlimited practice.

“What’s nice about it is, it’s free,” Pearson said.

“Anybody in the community can come out here, with their own golf balls, and come out and work on any part of their game they want to work on.”

Pearson said the new facility’s proximity to the driving range also was key because it wound up creating what he called “a one-stop shop” for golfers who want to work on their game.

“We needed something that could attract the golfers who don’t always have four hours or two hours to play a full round,” Pearson said.

“And this is just another step for us in moving toward our vision of what this place can be.

“Once everything matures, it’s going to be really nice.”

teams and perhaps KU recruits as well.

“The magnitude of the events keeps growing every year,” Rader said.

“I probably would’ve chuckled if a person told me five years ago I’d be behind putting on an event at Municipal Auditorium and the return of summer basketball to Lawrence to such an incredible venue. But here we are, and it’s rewarding to bring high-level events to the region. The kids, fans, families and communities deserve it.”

Rader said he has enjoyed the experience of returning to Lawrence numerous times in preparation for the event — hotel space is limited that weekend, because of a youth softball tournament in town — and said he looks forward to continuing the Sunflower Showcase and possibly other events in Lawrence.

“It’s great to come to Lawrence and take a few minutes and enjoy some places and areas which I did for many years, see some old friends and hopefully establish a great annual event for the city for many years to come,” Rader said.

The public will be admitted to the Showcase, with admission costs to be revealed later. l

Mack uncommitted: Former VCU commit Tevin Mack did not orally commit to Texas on his unofficial visit over the weekend, his mom, Paula, tells Zagsblog.com. Mack, a 6-foot-6 senior wing out of Dreher High in Columbia, South Carolina, is still considering KU and Georgia. He’s also had Clemson, UCLA and West Virginia on his list of schools. Last week, Paula said her son would hold a Skype conference with KU’s coaches, who would take Tevin on a video tour of KU’s campus and facilities.

Pineda K’s 16, beats O’s The Associated Press

American League Yankees 6, Orioles 2 New York — Michael Pineda struck out a career-high 16 in seven dominant innings, and New York downed Baltimore.

Pineda (5-0) matched David Cone and David Wells for the secondmost strikeouts in a game by a Yankees pitcher. Ron Guidry fanned 18 in 1978.

The 16 strikeouts were the most by the Orioles against one pitcher in a nine-inning game, according to STATS. Baltimore struck out against 18 times overall, a club record for a nine-inning game.

Bud Norris (1-4) took the loss. The Orioles dropped five of six during their week in New York against the Yankees and Mets.

Coach worries about cost of graduation gifts Dear Annie: With graduation season coming upon us soon, I am wondering what to do.

I am a high school sports coach. Over the past few summers, I have been invited to multiple graduation parties. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy the parties, and I love my players. I am honored to be invited and to have had a positive impact on their lives. But I can’t afford to give each party honoree a gift. That would add up pretty quickly, and it’s not fair to give one player a gift and not another.

Is it rude not to give gifts, or is it better not to attend any parties?

— Coach on a Budget Dear Coach: We have mentioned in the past that the best gift a teacher or coach can give is a letter expressing positive thoughts about the graduate. Write some-

thing that indicates personal knowledge of the player’s attributes and strengths, his or her sense of humor, teamwork, compassion, efforts or talent. These letters are cherished and saved for years and are more meaningful than any material gift you could buy. And you also will feel free to attend the parties, which the players will also appreciate.

Dear Annie: I’m a little confused about a

HBO tackles ‘Cannibal Cop’ case Based on one of the creepiest tabloid stories of recent years, the documentary “Thought Crimes: The Case of the Cannibal Cop” (8 p.m., HBO) looks at the weird places where law intersects with fantasy and fetish.

Headlines screamed when New York City police officer Gilberto Valle was convicted in 2013. He had been arrested after his wife discovered his online history. While she and their baby were sleeping, he spent endless hours in a strange chat room w h e r e strangers exchanged lurid and disturbed fantasies about killing, raping, torturing and devouring women.

Valle, his mother and his legal defense team claimed that everything he wrote belonged to the realm of Internet fantasy.

He never acted on any of these reveries, no matter how horrible they appeared. He was, in effect, creating an unreal world — disturbing, but entirely fictional. To convict Valle would criminalize private thought itself.

If Valle was a criminal for writing about cannibalism in dreadful detail, what about Thomas Harris, the author of books featuring Hannibal Lecter? Should he be arrested?

The prosecutors contended that Valle moved beyond mere musing when he used a police database to search out intended victims and when he introduced names and photos of real women from his past into his chat room exchanges. To many, Valle’s position as a police officer added a chilling element of danger to his grotesque fantasy life.

Valle served 22 months in prison before a judge took the extremely rare move of overturning his conviction.

“Thought Crimes” does a very good job of humanizing its subject, chiefly by means of interviews with Valle, his mom and presenting both sides of an extraordinarily thorny legal issue.

recent development in my life. I’m a 69-yearold male. My wife died last summer after being in a nursing facility for nearly two years.

I recently went on a trip to visit some buddies. On the way, I decided to see a woman who was married to my wife’s cousin. Her husband also died after a long illness. I found that I enjoyed the short time we had together.

At the conclusion of the trip with my buddies, she agreed to see me on my way back. The second visit seemed even better than the first. I thought we had a real connection.

I’m not sure where to go with this new friendship. I really like her a lot. Should I stay in contact? Do you think I’m just lonely and looking for companionship? I don’t want to simply
