City facing $600K deficit in street maintenance

‘You roll with what comes’

John Lomas, versatile, vital musician

olling Stone magazine brought John Lomas to town in the early ’70s.

In those days, the publication offered musicians free classified ads, he said.

“I put an ad in there, said ‘I’m in Chicago, play guitar, want to relocate,’” Lomas said. “I got a reply from a band in Lawrence. They said ‘we’ve got a band, we’ve got gigs and we’ve got a place for you to stay.’”

Lomas blew into town with everything he owned thrown in his 1964 Chevy Impala.

The band, whose “awful” name Lomas preferred not to share in an interview last week, only lasted a few years. He quickly split off to start new groups with the bass player and make a name for himself in

LAWRENCE MUSICIAN JOHN LOMAS says he has been in about 40 bands in his musical career. He has been playing in and around Lawrence since the early ’70s.

Lawrence shoppers may be coming to the rescue of city streets this summer.

Engineers are alerting city commissioners that they are expecting about a $600,000 shortfall in fundCITY ing for the city’s summer street maintenance pro- COMMISSION gram, which includes work such as repaving and curb repair.

“We are seeing an escalation of construction costs,” said Mark Thiel, the city’s assistant director of public works.

But city officials think they can cover the $600,000 shortfall by pulling money out of the city’s sales tax infrastructure fund, in part because that fund has been growing more rapidly than projected thanks to an uptick in retail sales in the city. For the year, Lawrence’s sales tax collections are up 5.8 percent. In 2014, they were up by about 4 percent.

City commissioners will be asked to approve the $600,000 infusion of cash at their meeting on Tuesday. In addition, the Public Works Department is seeking another $250,000 to fund repaving work for Louisiana Street between 27th Street and the area Please see STREETS, page 5A

KU researchers, students examine rare cicadas emerging now

Burglary suspect apprehended after he crashes his vehicle

By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

A 32-year-old Lawrence man whose vehicle struck a utility pole on East 23rd Street Sunday afternoon was arrested on suspicion of multiple charges after the accident.

Matthew Roy Abrams Hamilton was reportedly involved in two incidents before the onevehicle accident.

The first, an alleged burglary, occurred outside the city limits on Sunday morning. Afterward, Lawrence police were called to a disturbance about 12:15 p.m. at an undisclosed location in East Lawrence, said Sgt. Laurie Powell with the Lawrence Police Department.

Powell said the disturbance involved a

woman, but she would not provide more details about the incident.

Hamilton left the scene in a vehicle, Powell said, and reportedly did not comply when Lawrence police attempted to pull him over. A short pursuit followed but was quickly ended because of concern for public safety, Powell said.

Hamilton, who was not being pursued at the time, was traveling west on 23rd Street when his vehicle, a red Chevrolet Blazer, left the roadway and struck a retaining wall and a utility pole. The utility pole was completely severed, with the upper portion of it left hanging from utility wires.

Hamilton was not injured in the accident and was apprehended at the scene, Powell said.

The cause of the accident is unknown at this time and is being investigated by the Kansas Highway Patrol.

Hamilton is being held in the Douglas County Jail without bond on suspicion of four charges: aggravated burglary, reckless driving, fleeing/ attempting to elude and false impersonation, according to the Douglas County Sherriff’s Office booking log.

Further details regarding the alleged burglary, which is being invested by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, are not yet available.

The two have even shared the stage once or twice over the years.

Back in those days, everything was about speed, sweep picking and distortion, Mardis said. Through all that, Lomas was able to share his love of jazz with the budding musician.

“When you’re getting going the whole jazz thing seems like a far-out-of-reach magic trick. And he made it easy to grasp,” Marvis said. “He taught me not to try to spit notes everywhere. It’s the spaces between the notes more than the notes themselves.”

More than a musician Beside the jazz scene, however, many are quick to mention Lomas’ musical arrangement with the late Bill Crahan, who died last December.

Since the late ’80s, Lomas and Crahan played acoustic sets all around Lawrence, at concerts, festivals, on the radio and at restaurants. For years, the pair played near-weekly sets each summer on top of the Oread Hotel, 1200 Oread Ave., Lomas said.

These days, Lomas plays regular gigs with Borderline Country and The Crumpletons, which play ’60s tunes in the vein of The Beatles, the Rolling Stones and others.

“I love the crowd he brings in here with The Crumpletons,” said Tanya McNeely, who owns the Jazzhaus along with her husband, Rick. “They’re an amazing group of people.

They’re always happy and dancing.”

There never was a master plan, Lomas said. Had he been wiser, he might have moved to New York or Los Angeles to try to “make it.” But the thought never crossed his mind.

“You go with the flow. I’m from the old hippie times, so I’ve got that philosophy going,” he said. “It’s all been good luck and good fortune.”

KC police caught posing with rifles Kansas City, Kan.— The Kansas City, Kan., police department says it’s investigating after photos surfaced of two officers posing with their rifles in front of a vandalized stop sign.

The Kansas City Star reports the photographs show lettering had been added to a stop sign to read, “Cops STOP murder’n.” The two officers posed for photos in front of the sign with their patrol rifles.

Police spokeswoman Amber Hickerson says the department learned of the photos after a neighbor saw the officers and posted pictures of them on social media. Hickerson did not know where the sign was located but said the vandalized lettering has since been cleaned off.

The officers were not identified.

The department says the officers showed poor judgment and the photos are “disappointing and inappropriate.”

‘Coloring outside the lines’

LINDA REIMOND, EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION DIRECTOR AT THE LAWRENCE ARTS CENTER, was named a first-place winner in the Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation Teacher Innovator Awards. The awards are given to recognize educators who are using the classroom to inspire innovation, creativity, problem-solving and critical thinking among their students.

Arts Center teacher wins national award for creative, play-based preschool approach

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @conrad_swanson

Almost 30 years ago, Linda Reimond, of the Lawrence Arts Center, began an arts-based preschool.

Just 18 children were in her inaugural class, which took place two mornings a week.

Now, about 120 children are enrolled in the school, Reimond said. Classes take place five mornings and five afternoons a week, and the program employs no fewer than 12 faculty members.

“We’re arts-based and play-based,” Reimond said.

“We play a lot, and we use a creative approach for reading, writing, science, math and all those other things you need to know in preschool before you go to school.”

This month, Reimond

“

We’re arts-based and play-based. We play a lot, and we use a creative approach for reading, writing, science, math and all those other things you need to know in preschool before you go to school.”

— Linda Reimond, Lawrence Arts Center early childhood education director was recognized with the Henry Ford’s Innovation Nation Teacher Innovator Award. She is one of ten first-place winners across the country, the organization said in a release.

“Linda invented our art space and preschool,” Arts Center CEO Susan Tate said. “The only one of its type in the country. And for 30 years she has reinvented it and innovated as ideas have come to her and our teachers.”

Reimond said her ap-

proach involves letting kids be kids, rather than forcing them to learn everything at the same time, which is often unrealistic.

“They’ll learn to read, but they might not all learn to read at three years and five months,” she said.

“Somebody might, but that’s not the norm. There are also kids who really have trouble reading.”

“That’s why I teach a class called ‘Coloring Outside the Lines,’” she said.

KU expert: Waco, Texas, bikers not so different from extremists

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

The outlaw motorcycle gangs that started a deadly shootout earlier this month in Waco, Texas, aren’t exactly extremist groups, but they share concerning similarities, a Kansas University expert says.

Such biker gangs don’t exist for the purpose of pursuing political goals, and they may not have a fully elaborated ideology, said Don Haider-Markel, professor and chair of KU’s department of political science, who researches extremist groups, terrorism, public policy and American politics.

However, they’re motivated by a “world view”

“Sometimes kids get put in a box and they don’t get a chance to explore and discover on their own.”

Surprised, humbled and honored by the award, Reimond said she plans to keep going, keep innovating and keep teaching.

Judges selected winners for their original and creative approach to teaching, their demonstrated resourcefulness and the positive impact they’ve made, the release said.

First place winners are given a weeklong “Innovation Immersion Experience” at The Henry Ford in Dearborn, Mich. The experience includes roundtrip airfare, accommodations, behind-the-scenes tours with curators and archivists and a teaching innovation workshop and special recognition ceremony.

The need for an affordable housing trust fund has been a hot topic at City Hall, but city commissioners on Tuesday will be presented with a more concrete project to add new affordable housing units to the city’s inventory.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Housing Authority is seeking permission to buy an existing six-unit apartment complex at 1725 New Hampshire St. The authority would use its own funds for the $485,000 purchase.

But because of the way the authority The Housing Auis structured, real thority is workestate purchases must be approved ing on a possible by the City Com- arrangement with mission.

Rent will range from $300 to $600 per month, depending on the income level of the tenant, according to information provided by the authority.

The Housing Authority is working on a possible arrangement with state officials that would designate the units for children who have aged out of the foster care program. Finding housing for former foster children has been difficult, city commissioners have been told by affordable housing advocates in recent weeks.

The property, which is just south of the Housing Authority’s Babcock Place facility, currently is owned by Woodoc Investments LLC, which is led by Lawrence businessman Rob Farha, according to county and state records. The property is appraised for about $180,000, according to the Douglas County Appraiser’s Office.

This isn’t the first time that the Housing Authority has bought an existing apartment complex to use as affordable rental housing. Back in 2006 it also bought and renovated the 58-unit Clinton Place Apartments near Clinton Parkway and Iowa Street.

near the South Lawrence Trafficway that is under construction. The city previously had planned to do that work in 2016, but now believes it would be better to do the construction while that portion of Louisiana Street is closed as part of the SLT project.

The Public Works Department is recommending that the $250,000 in new funding also come out of the infrastructure sales tax fund. Thiel said he thinks the sales tax fund can accommodate the $850,000 in unplanned expenditures without significantly delaying other projects.

But whether that holds true may depend on whether future projects planned for the sales tax infrastructure fund also come in above estimates.

There already have been signs that some of the planned sales tax projects are coming in above original estimates. Earlier this year, bids for a major stormwater pump station project in North Lawrence came in $1.8 million above engineer’s estimates. City commissioners have since delayed that project, changed its design and ordered the project rebid in hopes that bids will come in lower. Removing $825,000 from the infrastructure sales tax fund

for street maintenance may make it more difficult for the city to cover higher-than-anticipated costs on the pump station project and others.

Higher construction costs are just one issue facing the city’s street maintenance program.

As the Journal-World reported in April, the city’s 2015 budget included a significant reduction in funds budgeted for routine street maintenance.

In 2015, the city budgeted $2.8 million for its contracted street maintenance program. That’s down from about $4.1 million in the 2014 budget.

The $2.8 million mark is roughly equivalent to the amount of money the city was spending on street maintenance in the mid2000s, prior to the passage of the infrastructure sales tax.

During the 2008 sales tax election, it was envisioned that a large portion of the new tax dollars would go to rebuilding streets that had fallen into disrepair to the point that routine maintenance was no longer effective.

The city has spent million of dollars on such projects, including several projects on Kasold Drive, Iowa Street, Wakarusa Drive and other major streets. But during the 2008 campaign it also was envisioned that spending on routine street maintenance would hold steady or increase slightly.

Thiel said the department routinely identifies $6 million worth of

Foam manufacturer might bring 20 jobs to Lawrence I

t sure looks like Lawrence is going to be in the foam insulation business and will get perhaps 20 new manufacturing jobs as a result.

I’ve seen signs that an Iowa company has plans to open up a manufacturing facility in Lawrence.

Des Moines-based Iowa EPS Products indeed has filed paperwork at Lawrence City Hall to renovate about 60,000 square feet of space for manufacturing purposes at 910 E. 29th St. That’s the former E&E Display building just north of 31st and Haskell streets.

I haven’t yet had any luck getting in touch with officials at Iowa EPS Products, but I’ve done digging otherwise, and I’m told that the Lawrence project likely will mean about 15 to 20 new jobs in Lawrence.

The company manu-

factures a variety of foam products related to the building industry. Based on some items I’ve read online, it looks like one of the uses for the foam is for the interior of garage doors. In case you didn’t know it, Lawrence is one of the capitals of garage door construction in all of America. Amarr Garage Doors has a major manufacturing facility in the East Hills Business Park, and it seems likely that Iowa EPS Products is seeking a Lawrence presence to be closer to a key customer.

It has been a while since Lawrence has had an announcement of a new manufacturer. Back in the 1990s, Lawrence got on a pretty good roll with manufacturing announcements. Then post-2001, we started losing more than we were gaining, and it has been a

But there are some signs that manufacturing is making a comeback in Lawrence. The two biggest have been with existing firms that have expanded. Plastic cup manufacturer Berry Plastics has added a large new distribution center along Interstate 70 northwest of town, and Hallmark Cards has moved large amounts of work from its Topeka and Leavenworth

facilities to its Lawrence plant. Both have been positive for Lawrence on the job front. Now we’ll see whether we’re about to begin a nice streak of outside companies moving into Lawrence.

The old E&E Display building — that was a company that we lost post-2001 as the market for products displays withered — will be a building to watch. With the completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway in 2016, that building will suddenly have much better transportation access. The building is owned by the group Big

Industrial, which repurposes vacant industrial buildings. The building has a little more than 300,000 square feet of finished industrial space.

I think the company has a few smaller tenants in the building now, but my understanding is additional space is available.

The area to watch most closely, however, is the Venture Park project. That’s the site of the former Farmland Industries fertilizer plant that has been repurposed into a business park. Larry McElwain, president and CEO of The Chamber, has confirmed his staff is

Caulking tips make for smooth sealing Caulk is a versatile sealant available in a seemingly limitless variety of formulas. Applying any type of caulk can be challenging.

Follow these simple steps to make the job go a little smoother.

Step 1: Prepare the surface. Use a putty knife or wire brush to remove all traces of old caulk. Clean away dirt and debris.

Wipe up oily residue with a rag and mineral spirits or rubbing alcohol. Allow the surface to dry completely before proceeding.

Step 2: Fill larger joints with caulk backer cord, leaving a 1/4- to 1/2inch gap for the caulk to fill.

Step 3: Apply caulk when temperatures will remain between 50 and 90 degrees. For exterior applications, choose a calm, dry day.

Step 4: Use the caulk gun cutting tool or a knife to cut the tip of the caulk tube off at a 45-degree angle. The closer the cut is to the end of the tip, the smaller the bead of caulk will be.

Step 5: Poke a wire or

Taping along either side of the joint before caulking can facilitate cleaner caulk lines; tape must be removed immediately after the caulk has been tooled to avoid compromising the seal.

Thus far, I have not seen any applications by Iowa EPS Products for a tax abatement or other financial incentives from City Hall. That likely won’t be the case with prospects looking at Venture Park. Larger projects usually come with incentive requests that could involve tax abatements and offers of free land at Venture Park. The new City Commission likely will get a test on how aggressive it wants to become in attracting new manufacturing jobs.

Attention due Don’t let the Memorial Day holiday pass without pausing to remember and honor the sacrifice of those serving in the U.S. military.

I

n an essay written for CNN, retired Staff Sgt. Luke Murphy shared his thoughts about Memorial Day last week.

Murphy served two tours with the 101st Airborne Division’s 187th Infantry Regiment in Iraq and had his right leg amputated because of wounds suffered in a roadside bomb blast in 2006.

Veterans like him don’t need Memorial Day to remind them of the sacrifices of members of the U.S. military, he said.

They see the faces of those who have died. They remember their smiles and the families they left behind. They know exactly where they were and what they were doing when they learned someone had been killed. The memory is there all the time, not just on Memorial Day. That’s why it’s a little hard for Murphy and others to accept the way most Americans celebrate this holiday.

“They’re out there enjoying the threeday weekend, eating cheeseburgers and drinking craft beer. …” he wrote, “Memorial Day is supposed to remind Americans what other people have sacrificed for them. But sometimes I think nobody’s paying attention.”

Some Americans have personal experience with sacrifice involving a family member or friend in the military, but with the current volunteer military, most of us have not been touched by that kind of loss. It’s not a part of our lives like it’s a part of Murphy’s life and the lives of other members of the military and their families, but that doesn’t mean it should go unnoticed, especially on Memorial Day. If Americans really want to show their respect for veterans, Murphy says, they can take time to go to a Memorial Day service, maybe hear a veteran speak about his or her experience. If they feel so moved, they can contact a local group that assists wounded veterans or the families of those who were killed in action and ask how they can help. Or they can go online — Homes for Our Troops was the website Murphy named — and make a donation.

It wouldn’t take much time. There still would be plenty of weekend left to enjoy some recreation or time with friends and family. But don’t the people who risk, and perhaps give, their lives in service of our country deserve a few minutes of our attention? Especially on Memorial Day, it seems like the least we can do.

Political middle on decline in U.S. Washington — Hillary Clinton’s move to the left on trade and other issues is a reminder of the growing power of activists on the wings in presidential nominating politics — and a corresponding diminution of the power of the center.

“Social and demographic shifts mean that no left-leaning position Clinton takes now would be likely to hurt her” in the 2016 general election, writes The Washington Post’s Anne Gearan in a recent assessment of Clinton’s strategy.

Meanwhile, GOP candidates are doubling down in the other direction, as they move toward their party’s right wing.

The disenfranchisement of the center is a fact of modern politics. That should be worrisome even if you think the center is an ideological muddle. As we’ve seen in recent years, in a world dominated by the political wings, the compromises necessary for passing any legislation become difficult. As the center disappears, so does governance.

To illustrate how the current system works, a would-be reformer named Peter Ackerman recently showed me a diagram that estimates party affiliation: “Democrats: Less than 30 percent,” “Republicans: Less than 30 percent,” and in the middle “Unaffiliated: Greater than 40 percent.” He argues that if you include left-leaning and rightleaning voters in the “moderate” camp, it makes up twothirds of the electorate.

Yet as we head toward the presidential nominating sea-

David Ignatius

“

Yet as we head toward the presidential nominating season, the voice of this broad center is barely audible.” son, the voice of this broad center is barely audible. Politics is pulled toward the left and right by campaign-finance rules, redistricting and other issues discussed in countless essays and op-ed pieces.

Ackerman has launched a campaign dubbed “Change the Rule” to address one piece of this puzzle of America’s political dysfunction. The rule in question is imposed by the Commission on Presidential Debates, which the two major parties created in 1987 to administer the televised debates that are the nexus of modern presidential campaigns.

Ackerman argues that this rule, as currently applied, prevents the emergence of an independent candidate who might empower the underrepresented middle.

The current debate rule requires that any third-party candidate must average 15

percent support in five polls taken in the two weeks before the debates begin in October of the election year. To get the necessary name recognition and support, Ackerman’s group estimates that an independent candidate would have to spend $266 million.

Because of contribution limits, this effectively precludes anyone who’s not a billionaire from joining the debates as an independent.

Ackerman argues that the entry ticket to the debate should instead be getting on the ballots by the end of April in an election year in states that together have at least 270 Electoral College votes. To avoid chaotic debates, just one such independent candidate should be added — the one with the highest number of ballotaccess signatures nationwide. Such a signature drive would cost less than $15 million, Ackerman estimates, opening the field to lesswealthy candidates who could mobilize volunteers and small donations.

Supporters are a “who’s who” of the bipartisan center: John Anderson, a Republican former congressman who ran as an independent in the 1980 presidential race; William Cohen, a Republican former senator who served as secretary of defense for a Democratic president; Lee Hamilton, a Democratic former congressman who co-chaired bipartisan commissions on 9/11 and the Iraq War; Jon Hunts-

man, a Republican former governor whose moderate positions vaporized his 2012 presidential campaign; and Joe Lieberman, a Democratic former senator and vice presidential nominee. Other backers include retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal and retired Adm. James Stavridis.

To bolster the case, Ackerman commissioned a survey last July by pollster Douglas Schoen. In the sample of 1,000 likely voters, 86 percent said the political system is broken and doesn’t serve ordinary people; 89 percent said they wished politicians would work together and compromise; and, interestingly, 66 percent said they thought presidential debates could do a better job of informing the electorate.

Other surveys reflect this deep mistrust of the system.

A January 2015 Pew Research Center poll reported a 48 percent unfavorability rating for the Democratic Party and a 53 percent negative for the Republicans. An August 2014 Gallup survey found that 83 percent disapproved of the job Congress is doing.

Yet the system grinds forward with a perverse set of incentives that rewards extremism and punishes compromise. I don’t know if opening the presidential debates would fix this mess, but it might pull candidates back toward the center, where the public lives and where problems get solved.

From the Lawrence Journal-World for May 25, 1915: “Mayor Francisco announced this morning that the road years through the cemetery had ago been closed and that traffic IN 1915 would not be allowed to pass through any more. The gate at the south entrance has been closed and locked. It has become the impression that the road was a public highway and a large amount of traffic has been passing through there and the drive was badly cut up. The key to the gate has been left at the sexton’s house and any one having business in the cemetery will be allowed to drive in.”

This year, Memorial Day comes on the heels of two big anniversaries — the 70th observance of V-E Day and the 45th of the evacuation of the U.S. embassy in Vietnam.

Created after the Civil War as “Decoration Day” — for the flowers decorating graves — Memorial Day tends to evoke memories of some very specific losses and of related acts of heroism. But this year’s double anniversary also brings to mind those who fought in the 1940s but went on to form the first line of defense in the anti-war movement of the 1960s and ’70s. They were priests, poets, politicos and pranksters — all, in their own way, keeping alive the memory of those we honor on Memorial Day. The priests included William Sloane Coffin, a former Army intelligence officer who remembered of boot camp: “Oh, it’s great stuff — almost as good as the bayonet, which is still my favorite exercise. There’s much satisfaction in a vicious thrust, jab, slash, smash. …

How I love it.”

Another priest was Philip Berrigan, who went from being anxious to being able “to charge pillboxes, blow up machine-gun nests and fight hand-tohand with my country’s enemy.” He survived the Battle of the Bulge, amid bombed battlefields “stacked high with charcoal logs that looked nothing at all like human beings.”

One of the poets was Kurt Vonnegut Jr., who as a prisoner at Dresden witnessed the now-controversial saturation bombing of the city: “First came the soft murmur of their dancing on the outskirts, then the grumbling of their plodding toward us, and finally the ear-splitting crashes of their heels upon us — and

“

They were priests, poets, politicos and pranksters — all, in their own way, keeping alive the memory of those we honor on Memorial Day.”

thence to the outskirts again. … Our little prison was burnt to the ground.”

The bombardiers delivering such relentless payloads included later politico Howard Zinn. Of the war, he said: “I was eager to get into combat against the Nazis. I saw the war as a noble crusade against racial superiority, militarism, fanatic nationalism, expansionism.” Many years later, Zinn met a couple from Pilsen, one of his crew’s targets: “They said, ‘When you finished, the streets were full of corpses, hundreds and hundreds of people killed in that raid.’”

Intelligence officer William Kunstler returned from years in the Pacific with memories of the “disturbing” Battle of Leyte and the Philippines’ carpet-bombed churches; those memories also included meeting a conscientious objector serving unarmed as an Army medic because of his beliefs.

To a man, the group returned home proud of their service and empowered to make a difference here at home.

Most gravitated to the civil rights movement of the 1950s and ’60s, with Coffin befriending the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But in 1965, when a new war was escalating in Southeast Asia, most of them questioned the need to inflict the horrors they’d seen on a new generation of draftees.

Zinn was one of the first to speak out, headlining an anti-war rally in 1965 and joining Father Philip Berrigan at a White House vigil. “Demonstrators decorous; Three White House

aides meet with leaders,” a New York Times headline marveled.

In 1966, Coffin, then a chaplain at Yale, joined the fight. He had become a passionate anti-war advocate due to South Vietnam’s “history of corruption, of misperceptions, and missed opportunities.” Coffin founded the church-based Clergy and Laity Concerned About Vietnam. Berrigan took a more radical path, commencing a career of civil disobedience by storming draft boards in Baltimore and Catonsville, Md. As the war wore on and pranksters Coffin and Zinn were arrested numerous times, they had legal backup from Kunstler, who had founded the Center for Constitutional Rights (with fellow veteran Arthur Kinoy). He also represented the Chicago Seven, who were charged with conspiracy and inciting to riot in the wake of the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago.

Meanwhile the poets, from Vonnegut to Randall Jarrell, served the movement with art. Vonnegut turned his experiences at Dresden into the satirical novel “Slaughterhouse-Five,” one of the most powerful anti-war statements ever written.

Why should we honor these men and others like them on Memorial Day? Because these priests, poets, politicos and pranksters — these veterans — never stopped fighting. They never forgot the values they’d brought to their own service. They may not have died while wearing the uniform, but through their work they honored the fallen, the people with whom they’d served. By upholding the principles of their nation, the ones their fellow service members died defending, they observed Memorial Day every day of their lives.

a year ago. Current prices are a result of a double whammy: tighter beef supplies because of cutbacks in herds during the drought and fewer calves going to the slaughterhouse now as ranchers restock herds.

The expansion is reflected in the last official count in January that showed the nation’s cattle herd was up by 600,000 head compared to a year ago — which means more calves are being born this year.

“We are expanding the herd very quickly right now,” said Kevin Good, a market analyst with industry-tracking group CattleFax, “And so we will have more beef supplies on the market by 2016.”

“Nationally, range and pasture conditions are notably improved from last year and other recent periods of drought throughout the U.S.,” Kansas State University Extension beef specialist Glynn Tonsor said, adding that it means beef cow herds will expand as planned.

Wichita (ap) — Drenching rains that recently soaked the Great Plains have brought welcomed moisture to areas still recovering from droughts, greening pastures as ranchers begin the annual rite of moving cattle to the nation’s summer grazing lands.

Ranchers in Kansas and elsewhere in cattle country are still trying to rebuild herds that were decimated in the 2012 and 2013 droughts, when they sold off much of their livestock because of shriveled pastures and skyrocketing hay prices. But in the past month, ranchers have benefited from inches of rain: Parts of Oklahoma and Texas averaged between 400 and 500 percent of normal

A TIME TO ROAR AND A TIME TO KNEEL

Memorial Day has undergone many changes in its almost century-and-a-half history. What began as Decoration Day after the Civil War has become a three-day national holiday to honor all those who gave their lives in military service.

MEMORIAL DAY From small-town marches and the placement of American flags on graves to the annual Rolling Thunder motorcycle rally in Washington, D.C., shown above, and President Obama’s visit to Arlington National Cemetery today, the tradition takes on a deeper significance every year.

The Islamic State seized Ramadi because the Iraqi military “showed no will to fight,” Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said in an interview that aired Sunday, offering sharp criticism of the Iraqis while defending the U.S. military’s tactics.

Carter said Iraqi forces outnumbered the militants in the capital of Anbar province but retreated.

“What apparently happened is the Iraqi forces just showed no will to fight. They were not outnumbered,” Carter said in an interview on CNN’s State of the Union. “In fact, they vastly outnumbered the opposing force.

That says to me, and I think to most of us, that we have an issue with the will of the Iraqis to fight ISIL and defend themselves,” he said, using a common abbreviation for the Islamic State fighters. “We can give them trainGETTY IMAGES ing. We can give Defense Secrethem equiptary Carter ment. We obviously can’t give them the will to fight,” he said.

Carter’s comments are the toughest public critique of the Iraqis from a high-ranking U.S. official since the Islamic State’s surprise takeover of Ramadi a week ago Sunday. Over the weekend, senior defense officials told USA TODAY that Iraqi security forces fled Ramadi despite holding as much as a 10-to-1 advantage over their opponents.

U.S. officials are blaming the Iraqi military amid new questions about the Obama administration’s approach in Iraq, which includes airstrikes against ISIL and training Iraq’s army. The administration has not committed any U.S. ground troops to the fight, and in Sunday’s interview Carter did not indicate any change in strategy.

He said the Pentagon has not recommended putting U.S. military spotters on the ground to help guide American airstrikes against ISIL targets.

Arizona Sen. John McCain, the GOP chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said Ramadi’s fall underscores a need to send in U.S. combat forces.

WASHINGTON

USA TODAY

In many ways, Ireland remains a heavily Catholic country.

Yet Friday’s emphatic “Yes” vote to same-sex marriage rights represents a seismic shift in the nation’s social liberalization and challenges the Roman Catholic Church to rethink its role in Irish society.

Crash kills ‘Beautiful Mind’ mathematician Nash, wife Nobel winner coped with mental illness Fredreka Schouten USA TODAY

John Nash, the Nobel Prizewinning mathematician whose life story inspired the 2001 movie A Beautiful Mind, and his wife, Alicia Nash, were killed Saturday in a car crash on the New Jersey Turnpike, New Jersey State Police said.

The Nashes were in a taxi when the driver lost control while trying to pass another vehicle,

Sgt. Gregory Williams said. The taxi crashed into the guardrail and then into another car.

The Nashes were ejected and died at the scene, Williams said.

The taxi driver was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Nash, who shared the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1994, was 86, while Alicia Nash was 82.

They lived in Princeton, N.J., police said, where John Nash was a senior research mathematician at Princeton University.

Princeton’s president, Christopher Eisgruber, called the Nashes “very special members” of the university’s community.

ments inspired generations of mathematicians, economists and scientists who were influenced by his brilliant, groundbreaking work in game theory,” Eisgruber said in a statement released Sunday.

A Beautiful Mind, starring Russell Crowe, was based loosely on Nash’s life and long battle with schizophrenia. As depicted in the film, Alicia Nash was his caregiver while he struggled with his mental illness.

In a tweet Sunday, Crowe said, “Stunned ... my heart goes out to John & Alicia & family. An amazing partnership. Beautiful minds, beautiful hearts.”

Nash was considered a pioneer in the field of game theory, devising a tool that economists and others could apply to competitive situations from trade negotiations to legislative battles.

But it was his life story, chronicled first in a biography by Sylvia Nasar and in the Ron Howard film, that brought him fame.

John and Alicia Nash divorced in the early 1960s, but Alicia Nash remained close to him and let him live in her home.

No better overindulgence than Cannes Bryan Alexander @BryanAlexander USA TODAY

CANNES , FRANCE During the final days of the Cannes Film Festival, I rode an escalator with a longtime, noticeably sleep-deprived Cannes reporter.

“I’ve got to take less time at Cannes next year,” he said, in between sips of a long espresso.

“This is too much.”

I had to point out we had had a very similar conversation like that in 2014. And possibly the year before that (it gets fuzzy).

But the fact is, that reporter will be back at Cannes next year in full force. Because there is no place better for true lovers of movies than the south of France during those 12 days.

The 68th festival wrapped up Sunday, after an awards ceremony that saw French director Jacques Audiard’s drama Dheepan take the prestigious Palm d’Or award. But the winners, and the celebration, are more widespread. Two of the films that made the biggest noise — Pixar’s Inside Out and George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road — were not even eligible for awards due to out-of-competition status.

Being at Cannes gave the studio films the kind of festival cred that filmmakers yearn. And the reaction of the vocal French audience made clear that Hollywood films do not have to play it safe, or pander to the lowest common denominator. Mad

VIVIEN ANG

When an interview call came early, just before I entered a premiere, I just had to sit down on the Palais floor and take it all down.

Max has since proven that with its box office prowess.

We’ll all be talking about Carol come awards season after the 1950s drama starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara comes to U.S. theaters in December. Sicario, starring Emily Blunt as an FBI agent pulled into the drug war, left my hands raw from clapping during the ovation it received at its world premiere.

brought about worthy and needed conversation. The idea that female premiere attendees were supposedly stopped from hitting the red carpet because they were not wearing heels, though denied as a policy by the festival, spurred discussion about the role of women in filmmaking and challenged the perception of glamour on the red carpet.

But mostly what spurs Cannes is the full, all-out, 24/12 celebration of film. No matter how much the chattering journalists

love to complain about the yearly slate, the schedule is maddeningly full with movies and discussions that are truly rich.

Late at night, I notice ruefully that crowds are watching festival-sponsored classic films on a giant screen right on the beach, the type of thing that would be a must-do any other time of the year. In all my years at Cannes, I’ve never had a chance.

My most consuming occupation is to follow gala premieres and famed red carpets. It’s a task that never gets old. Red carpets can get routine in an industry town like Los Angeles, for the people who walk on them and the people who monitor them.

But in Cannes, that real estate is still undiluted, powerful and amped up with a great soundtrack pumped over powerful speakers. The looks on the stars’ faces as they step out, right down to the savviest Hollywood player, is infectious.

A Cannes first-timer, Inside Out star Amy Poehler, summed up her red carpet experience in life-defining symbolism.

“Before you get to the top (of the stairs), you turn around to look and see where you’ve been,” said Poehler. “And then stand at the top and you own it.”

It’s that kind of powerful celebration that has you telling weary regulars: Rest up for the next 11 months. See you next year.

Ireland’s next issue: Abortion rights?

Restrictions have been under pressure; more support seen Kim Hjelmgaard USA TODAY

Approving abortion rights in Ireland will likely be the next social battleground following the resounding victory for same-sex marriage.

David Quinn, founder and director of the Iona Institute, a conservative group that promotes DUBLIN

traditional Catholic values, predicted before the results of Friday’s referendum were tallied that “if this thing is carried by a big margin then you would very much expect the pro-life section of our constitution to be targeted.”

“If they win, the ‘Yes’ vote will clearly be thinking, ‘Well, if we can beat them on the (gay marriage) issue then we can probably beat them on the abortion issue, too,’ ” he added.

Results released Saturday confirmed Quinn’s fear: 62% voted for a constitutional amendment

Young voters helped gay marriage win v CONTINUED FROM 1B

prove full marriage rights for same-sex couples by popular referendum. Eighteen other countries have legalized gay marriage through legislation or the courts.

Ireland seems an unlikely place to make history on the issue given the Catholic Church’s dominant role in the country and its opposition to passage of the referendum measure. About 85% of people polled in Ireland’s census

in 2011 identified as Catholic. The church runs more than 90% of Ireland’s public schools. Twice a day, church bells ring out on state radio and television to remind Ireland’s devoted to recite the Angelus prayer.

In one concession to the Catholic clergy, the measure does not extend an automatic right for gay couples to be married in a church.

The Iona Institute, a conservative Catholic think tank, said in a

to grant same-sex couples equal marriage rights.

Since 1983, women have been allowed to have abortions here only if the mother’s life is deemed to be in danger. That concession to an outright ban was bitterly contested and has been a nearconstant source of debate.

Quinn, who had been a leader of the campaign to defeat the same-sex marriage amendment, conceded that abortion rights in Ireland have been under pressure for some time.

“I don’t think (Prime Minister) Enda Kenny would be in favor, he

has said he is pro-life, but he may also just say: ‘Let the people decide,’ ” Quinn said.

Niall Behan, the chief executive of the Irish Family Planning Association, a charity and source of information for sexual and reproductive health services, said that during the last decade, Ireland has seen major attitude changes about abortion.

“Opinion polls and research consistently show increased support for access to abortion within Ireland,” he said.

“There is much public and political appetite for reform of our

abortion laws, with many politicians publicly stating that a referendum to repeal the eighth amendment of the constitution is a mandate that lies with the next government,” Behan said.

Many Irish women travel to receive abortions in the United Kingdom, where it is legal. A few thousand did so in 2013, according to Britain’s Department of Health.

The Irish government has not made public any plans to reopen the abortion debate nor has it suggested that a referendum on the issue is being considered.

statement, “We hope the government will address the concerns voters on the ‘No’ side have about the implications for freedom of religion and freedom of conscience.”

Oran Doyle, a law professor at Trinity College Dublin, said that while the result reflects the secularization of Irish society, its ultimate impact on Ireland’s ongoing debate about what type of society it wants to be may be limited.

“Opposition to the (constitutional amendment) came mostly from the Catholic Church and other religious groups aligned with it. The fact that they could only get 38% support is significant,” said Doyle, who is gay.

“Nevertheless, it doesn’t follow from this that there is a pronounced shift in attitudes to other questions, such as abortion,” he added. “The primary driver on change on this social issue was people’s feelings to and on behalf of gay people whom they know.”

For Irish voters who approved the measure, the vote represents a recognition that Ireland needs to catch up with Europe in liberalizing social mores.

Homosexuality was decriminalized in Ireland only in 1993.

Abortion remains illegal except if a mother’s life is endangered. The right to divorce was granted only as recently as 1996. Contraception was illegal until 1980.

Young voters were a big reason the gay-marriage amendment passed, even though “most of those people who voted ‘Yes’ are products of our Catholic schools,” Archbishop Martin said.

Emily Neenan, a student from Dublin, epitomizes those voters.

“It’s about time we had a better understanding of what the Irish people actually want,” Neenan said.

“Our society has changed a lot and the laws have not kept up,” she said. “We have had a strange dichotomy between those of us who are very young and liberal and welcoming, and these very old and outdated ways of the Catholic Church.”

IN BRIEF $1M SPENT ON MEDICAL CARE FOR JAILED TEEN

A teenager unable to post bond on a low-level burglary charge ended up ingesting screws, needles, a 4-inch piece of metal and other objects while behind bars, leading the jail to spend over $1 million in medical care on him.

Authorities at Cook County Jail told the Chicago Tribune that the case of Lamont Cathey, 17, highlights the hazards of institutionalizing impressionable youths, some of whom have mental health issues.

The newspaper said that the sheriff’s office moved Lamont into a newer section of the jail last week and that his condition appeared to have improved.

Cathey has been in the jail for 16 months on charges he stole money from a pizzeria safe, after he couldn’t post a $5,000 bond.

NATION/WORLD

Protests called mostly peaceful Cleveland mayor says some went too far; dozens arrested after verdict Protesters “have a right to protest, to express whatever opinion they have — as long as they don’t cross the line.”

Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson

Doug Stanglin and Jane Onyanga-Omara USA TODAY

Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson on Sunday encouraged residents to come downtown over the holiday weekend — even as sometimes raucous protests followed the acquittal of a white police officer in the deaths of two unarmed black suspects.

“I would say, ‘Come into downtown Cleveland,’ ” Jackson said. “ ‘Come into our neighborhoods and enjoy yourself. And if there are protesters, we will be there along with those protesters.’ ” The Cleveland Cavaliers, locked in an NBA playoff battle against the Atlanta Hawks, were to face off as scheduled Sunday night at Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena. This was in contrast to protests in Baltimore last month that led the Orioles to cancel several home games.

Police Chief Calvin Williams said police arrested 71 people Saturday following a not-guilty verdict in the case of Michael Brelo, a white officer who was facing two counts of voluntary manslaughter in the deaths of Timothy Russell, 43, and Malissa

RICKY RHODES, GETTY IMAGES

Williams, 30. Police killed the duo in a hail of bullets after a highspeed chase in November 2012.

Brelo, 31, still faces administrative charges.

Jackson said Saturday’s protests were mostly peaceful. “They served as an example of peaceful demonstration and dialogue that will help us to move forward to a positive and substantive reform and forge better relationships be-

tween the police division and the community,” he said. Later in the day, however, “there were some who crossed the line,” he said.

Those included a group of protesters who blocked a major downtown thoroughfare, Williams said. “This is a dangerous activity and we try to discourage it and try to prevent it, because a highway with cars going 60 miles an hour is a lot different than a

public roadway with a 25-mph speed limit.”

Williams said that protest eventually dispersed, but later Saturday evening, some protesters “began to get more aggressive and at times started to cross the line.” A few of the demonstrations, he said, “degenerated into what we saw (as) just random acts of violence against people just standing on the street.”

Saturday’s protests began after Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge John O’Donnell found that “Brelo’s entire use of deadly force was a constitutionally reasonable response to an objectively reasonably perceived threat of great bodily harm” from Russell and Williams.

Russell’s family issued a statement that said the family was “deeply disappointed” in the ruling. “Even as Judge O’Donnell acknowledged the disproportionate killing of people of color, he failed to hold Officer Michael Brelo accountable for his reckless and cruel actions,” the family said.

On Sunday, Jackson noted that protesters “have a right to protest, to express whatever opinion they have — as long as they don’t cross the line. If they cross the line, we will deal with them accordingly.”

2 dead amid severe floods in Okla., Texas Fire captain drowned during rescue; hundreds moved to safety

A firefighter died in Oklahoma while carrying out a rescue operation in high water as the National Weather Service warned about potentially historic flooding.

About 1,000 people were evacuated in central Texas, which saw dozens of high-water rescues overnight Saturday as the Blanco River and other swollen waterways breached their banks. The river swamped sections of Interstate 35. In San Marcos, Texas, a man drowned on Sunday, though city officials said they were not able to confirm his identity.

In Claremore, Okla., Fire Chief Sean Douglas said firefighter Jason Farley drowned late Saturday when he stepped into a flooded storm drain, KOTV in Tulsa reported. A 19-year veteran of the department, Farley was attempting to rescue a fellow firefighter who had fallen into the drain. The other firefighter made it out of the drain alive, Douglas said.

Capt. Farley’s body was recovered around 1 a.m. He was the first Claremore firefighter to die in the line of duty since the mid’80s, the chief told the Tulsa World. “It’s pretty overwhelming.

Our firefighters are a family.”

Steven Darnell said firefighters were rescuing his daughter and granddaughters from their home when the accident happened.

“He’s our hero, that’s for sure, because it could have been our grandkids,” he said.

Authorities in Oklahoma and Texas said they rescued many residents from flooded areas. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation reported about 35 highway closings across the state due to flooding, which also caused damage to a gas station and mall in Oklahoma City.

In Purcell, Okla., south of Oklahoma City, heavy rain late Saturday and early Sunday caused Walnut Creek to overflow, The Oklahoman reported, resulting in 28 home evacuations, according to the director of the McClain County Emergency Management office.

The National Weather Service confirmed that a tornado touched down briefly in Houston and in Irving on Sunday. In Houston, the tornado damaged an apartment complex where two people were hurt, the Associated Press reported. According to Houston fire officials, about 10 apartments were heavily damaged and 40 others were damaged.

Forecasts called for the rain to continue Sunday and be heavy at times today, with continued threats of flash flooding, the Associated Press reported.

The slain Housing Authority of New Orleans officer was found inside his squad car early Sunday.

WWL-TV, New Orleans NEW ORLEANS A 45-year-old Housing Authority of New Orleans officer was found shot to death inside his police cruiser early Sunday in Central City, the New Orleans Police Department said.

The driver’s side window was broken out and the cruiser’s lights were still on when officers found the body. The cruiser had apparently hit a curb. NOPD Superintendent Michael Harrison said the officer’s car was found in drive.

“What we know right now is that he was fatally wounded, and it is just a sad day,” Harrison said.

“We are all very touched by it and

our thoughts and prayers are with the chief, his family and the officers of the housing authority.”

Housing Authority Police Chief Robert Anderson said the officer had been on the force only two years and was the agency’s first officer killed in the line of duty.

The officer’s name had not been released.

Anderson said the officer was on patrol in an area where mixedincome homes are under construction.

“Such a tragic loss,” Anderson said. “We have never had an onduty death in the department’s history. We know the men and women of the NOPD will work to bring this to a conclusion.”

As investigators continued to work at the scene, many questions remained about the motivation behind the shooting and who killed the officer.

“It is a tough day,” Harrison said. “It is a hard thing to watch one of your colleagues lose their

life in the line of duty.”

Mayor Mitch Landrieu issued this statement: “The death of this HANO police officer is an unspeakable tragedy, and a vile and cowardly act.

Tragedies that involve our men and women in uniform affect our entire city and touch every member of our law enforcement community. We are deeply saddened by this loss, and our hearts and prayers are with the officer’s friends and family and with the entire HANO family during this very difficult time.

“NOPD and HANO will work very closely to identify and arrest those responsible for this heinous assault. NOPD and HANO are part of the same close-knit law enforcement family that puts their lives on the line to protect and serve the people of New Orleans. Never are we more aware of the risk they face every day than we are on terrible days like this.”

Honor Flight veteran, 92, still doing his duty He writes sympathy notes to families Virginia Olson

(Sioux Falls, S.D.) Argus Leader SIOUX FALLS , S . D. It’s been six years since the first South Dakota Honor Flight left Sioux Falls.

Through a total 12 flights, 1,400 area World War II veterans had a chance to visit Washington, D.C., and the WWII Memorial there.

Ken Salisbury, 92, of Sioux Falls was on the first flight. The

WWII veteran was so moved by that trip that he went on to serve as a guardian for other Honor Flights. He traveled eight times, assisting veterans with special health needs. With 50 wheelchairs on every flight and 10 stops while in Washington, there were “lots of logistics,” he says.

The final Honor Flight left June 3, 2011. Afterward, Salisbury felt he needed to do more. He was saddened to read of the deaths of veterans who were part of earlier Honor Flights. So he took it upon himself to write letters of condolence to each of their families.

Salisbury reads the daily obituaries, looking for names of Honor Flight travelers and then composes a personal letter to the veterans’ families. So far, 183 Honor Flight veterans have died.

The average age of Honor Flight vets is 90, and Salisbury is writing at least one letter a week — sometimes as many as three.

“The veterans who have died since the Honor Flight shouldn’t go unnoticed,” Salisbury said. “I know I have outlived them, so I feel compelled to send a letter. It’s a tough deal when a veteran dies.

A special note is so nice for the

family.” Each letter has its own message and references the veteran’s specific service.

Gert Havelaar of Canton received one such letter from Salisbury after her 89-year-old husband, Cornelius “Corky” Havelaar, died Jan. 29, 2014. The

WWII paratrooper, who served for three years, had been a passenger on the final Honor Flight.

Gert Havelaar sent a letter back to thank Salisbury.

“It was nice to know that his service in WWII was remembered,” Havelaar said.

The letters of condolence are not Salisbury’s only gift for the veterans. The woodworker also designed and created 1,600 wooden coin holders for the travelers to display their special souvenirs.

“I do all this because I want to help my fellow WWII veterans,” he said. “We were all of a kind.”

Filling up a tank on a big truck can cost as much as

$1,000 700 truckers currently work with Cargomatic.

Most of the Cargomatic truckers see

$500 to $2,500 extra per shipment.

COMPTON, CALIF.

Cesar Lopez is one happy trucker.

There’s congestion at the ports, shipments are getting tougher to come by, and his days can be quite long. But now there’s a new app that’s bringing in more business. Way more business.

Lopez, who runs his own independent trucking company, started using the Cargomatic app nearly a year ago to fill space on his truck with additional shipments.

Business is up 35% since, he says. Asked to clarify, he says, “Over $100,000 ... no ... more. $120,000.”

Remember that big trucks cost over $150,000 to purchase, warehouses charge to use their services, and it can cost as much as $1,000 just to fill up a tank before heading down the highway.

So the extra bucks are coming in handy.

The idea from Jonathan Kessler and Brett Parker is starting to catch on. Most of the 700 truckers working with Cargomatic are seeing from $500 to $2,500 extra per shipment by working with the app, says company CEO Kessler.

“We fill space on the trucks,” Kessler says. “So instead of being 50% full, now they’re 75% full.”

Cargomatic, which currently operates just in Southern California and New York, has been called the “Uber for truckers.” Its app connects shippers with drivers looking for extra shipments to haul.

Like Uber, Kessler and Parker are trying to use technology to change an established $70 billion business with trade associations, unions and a long-established way of doing business.

But Cargomatic isn’t trying to replace established truckers and their rigs with a new set of drivers. “We’re just trying to help them make more money,” says Kessler.

Los Angeles trucker Cesar Lopez, above, uses Cargomatic, the “Uber for truckers.”

Still, there’s some pushback.

Weston LaBar, the executive director of the 6,000-member Harbor Trucking Association, which serves the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports, says his members are “skeptical” about the app, and no one has signed up.

“Anytime there’s something new, there are people who don’t understand it,” Kessler says.

The founders chose trucking as a business opportunity because of the huge impact it makes on all our lives.

“Everything from the clothes on your body, furniture in your house, food in your refrigerator, all comes on trucks,” Kessler says.

“Everything you use in your daily life will be on a truck at some point.”

Cargomatic is working with companies like Williams-Sonoma, Perry Ellis and Bass Pro Shops, offering lower priced local shipments. When a new shipment comes in, it’s broadcast to Cargomatic’s network of truckers, along with the warehouse address and final destination.

If the trucker is going that di-

rection, he or she can select it in the app, and nab the job.

“You don’t have to call in, `Where’s my next dispatch?’ ” Lopez says. “Everything’s at the click of one button. If it fits for you, you take it. Then you’re done with it.”

Kessler and Parker raised $11 million to get Cargomatic off the ground and are still raising money as they look to wider expansion in 2016.

One investor is Volvo, which is no longer in the car business but makes 70% of its profits from its fleet of new trucks.

Jonas Landstrom, investment director for Volvo Group Venture Capital, says Cargomatic is off to a “promising start, but it’s early on their journey.”

Volvo invested, he says, because Cargomatic has “huge possibilities in terms of efficiency gains. But they have a lot of hard work ahead of them.”

Meanwhile, Lopez is happy with all things Cargomatic, except for one. He wants more business.

“I wish they had more loads.”

Says Cargomatic CEO Jonathan Kessler, left: “Instead of (trucks) being 50% full, now they’re 75% full.”

“Everything’s at the click of one button.

If it fits for you, you take it. Then you’re done with it.”

Meet a leader in Google’s search for women

This year at I/O, one tech pioneer will play host to hundreds Jessica Guynn USA TODAY

Even in an industry overrun by men, the number of women showing up at major conferences for software developers is paltry.

“Wow, there are way more women in tech than this,” Natalie Villalobos remembers thinking in 2013, the first time she attended Google I/O. Just 8% of attendees at the Internet giant’s annual confab for developers that year were women.

At the time, Villalobos was the community manager for Google+.

She was also volunteering 20% of her time to Women Techmakers, which held an annual event the night before I/O to bring together women software developers.

After I/O, Villalobos talked her way into a new position as the company’s women-in-technology SAN FRANCISCO

advocate, charged year-round at Google with raising the visibility of women and at I/O with making sure women are better represented in the audience and on stage.

“I approach my job every day saying, ‘How might we put women in technology first?’ ” Villalobos says.

The strategy appears to be working. This year, 23% of attendees are expected to be women, up from 20% in 2014.

But raising the numbers is no easy feat. “Too often, women feel alone or ‘other’ in the industry,” Villalobos says.

It’s no secret that Silicon Valley has a shortage of female software developers. But it’s not just thin ranks and feelings of isolation that discourage women from attending developer conferences.

Open sexism in the tech industry is also frequently on display at these conferences.

Villalobos is tackling the lopsided numbers at Google I/O in different ways. She’s distributing tickets to women-in-technology groups, handing out grants to cover travel costs and holding coding competitions for women.

GOOGLE

Natalie Villalobos, left, speaks on a panel at the Women Techmakers Mountain View (Calif.) Summit on International Women’s Day 2015.

For the first time this year, Google created an invitation-only online network for women to connect before and after I/O. Also new this year at I/O: community guidelines that remind attendees to treat everyone with respect and to call out “harassment, discrimination or condescension, whether blatant or via micro-aggressions.”

Women will continue to be more visible on stage and in running sessions at I/O, including an all-women panel on “engineering for the stratosphere” with staffers from Project Loon, Google’s ex-

perimental effort to beam the Internet from high-altitude balloons to remote areas of the planet.

Google is in the midst of a major push to bring more women into the tech industry after revealing a year ago that seven out of 10 employees at the company are men. The Internet giant will spend $150 million this year on diversity initiatives.

Google I/O, which draws thousands of developers from around the world, starts Thursday in San Francisco. I/O is the Mountain View, Calif., company’s major

conference of the year, where it showcases new products and developers get the opportunity to meet with the company and each other.

“I think women do want to go to tech conferences and Google I/O does attract women. However, there are barriers to entry that all conferences can lower or eliminate to ensure more women can participate in the events,” Villalobos says.

“Visibility is a huge component to changing the perception of women in the industry, not only who we are but that we are present in the industry,” she says.

“Megan [Smith, currently chief technology officer of the United States] always used to say: ‘It’s just that we can’t see each other.’ ” This year, hundreds of women have been invited to dinners in San Francisco with Google executives and employees.

“Bringing together hundreds of women,” Villalobos says, “forges really personal relationships that will last long after I/O. ... These dinners help cultivate community.”

The future of airline fees On the overhead: What you’re likely to pay more for Dawn Gilbertson The Arizona Republic

SCOTTSDALE , ARIZ .

What’s the next big thing on the fee front for airlines?

David Cush, CEO of San Francisco-based Virgin America, thinks it should be a change in baggage fees. Speaking at an airline conference in Phoenix earlier this month, he said the way major airlines charge for bags is backward and doesn’t make sense economically.

“A bag charge is the same on a short haul (flight) as a long haul,” he said. “We give the most valuable space in the airplane other than a seat away for free, which is the overhead, but we charge people for the least valuable place in the airplane, the belly.”

Spirit Airlines, Allegiant Air and Frontier charge for carry-on bags and Allegiant’s bag fees vary by route (producing the industry’s longest fee chart), but no major airlines have copied those policies.

“Who takes that first leap?”

Cush said. “That’ll be interesting to watch.”

Cush and other executives at the annual Phoenix International Aviation Symposium put on by Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport had plenty to say about fees during the two-day conference at the Phoenician.

They prefer the terms “ancillary revenue” and “unbundling the product.” Whatever you call extra charges, they aren’t going away, even as the industry reports record profits thanks to sharply lower fuel prices, strong demand for travel and higher airfares. One United Airlines executive said they are in the third inning of a nine-inning game when it comes to fee revenue.

One bit of good news for travelers: Executives don’t anticipate any major new fees cropping up.

“I think we’ve gone most of the way on the product itself,” Cush said. “The number of additional things that can be unbundled, I think that’s a small number.”

Passengers arrive at London’s Heathrow. Expect big European carriers to switch to the U.S. model of charging for checked bags.

Might major airlines start charging a fee to simply reserve a seat in advance?

The not-so-good news: Cush and other executives say the key to boosting revenue is to charge more for existing services and products, such as bag fees. They aren’t talking across-the-board increases as much as varying prices by flight, as they do with ticket prices.

That is already occurring to a degree with seat-selection fees.

Check a major airline’s online seat map and you’ll find a variety of prices for seats deemed preferred, either because they have more legroom or simply because they are at the front of the plane.

Within these sections, aisle seats cost more than middle seats.

Scott Wilson, vice president of e-commerce and merchandising for United Airlines, said he thinks there’s room to do more. There’s more demand for United’s Economy Plus seats on an 8 a.m. flight packed with business travelers, for example, than on a flight two hours later with a different mix of passengers.

“We might have to price accordingly,” he said.

Southwest Airlines famously doesn’t assign seats and thus has no seat-selection fees. But senior vice president Andrew Watterson said its priority boarding options, including Early Bird Check In for $12.50 one way, are a rough equivalent. And very popular with travelers, Watterson said.

“I think it’s something that in our view customers are willing to pay for,” he said.

Might major airlines start charging a fee to simply reserve a

seat in advance, as Spirit and Allegiant do? (Travelers who don’t pay are assigned leftover seats at check-in.) Three out of four conference attendees said yes in an informal poll.

American Airlines President Scott Kirby, former president of US Airways before the airlines’ 2013 merger, said there’s a lot to be learned from airlines like Spirit, which offer bargain fares and fees for everything from printing a boarding pass at the airport to water and soft drinks during the flight. They also pack more seats into a plane and have the industry’s highest profit margins.

“This idea that Spirit is carrying a different set of customers than us is just wrong,” he said.

American, which will start phasing out the US Airways brand this summer, is going to experiment, like Delta has, with some Spirit-like options in the coach cabin. Travelers would find more ticket choices than they do

Let’s be honest: We all tell tales Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Travelers lie. But ON why?

TRAVEL EVERY Is it because MONDAY they’re far away from friends and family, and bending the truth has few consequences? Or does dealing with the travel industry, which doesn’t always have a firm grasp of the facts, give them a license to tell an occasional fib?

As America kicks off the busy summer travel season today, maybe we need to answer those questions. Because a little truth in travel on both sides of the counter could make your vacation a lot better.

Imagine a world where hotels no longer embellish their amenities and consumers don’t claim false disabilities to take pets on vacation as “emotional support” animals or jump to the front of a line at an amusement park.

Now, back to reality. Travelers aren’t exactly shining examples of honesty, according to a recent survey. Americans ranked a dismal 23rd out of 29 nationalities polled by Hotels.com, when asked if they’d ever stolen something from a hotel room. (The most honest guests came from Denmark, Netherlands and Norway.)

And we have stories. Actually, they’re more like confessions.

Jennifer Coburn, who is American, visited the Colosseum in Rome with her daughter recently.

“A nice Scottish boy working there told me that if I were a

The travel industry likes to stretch the truth as much as you do — maybe more.

HOW TO SPOT A LIE

ZORAN ZEREMSKI, GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

Here’s how to catch a travel company in a lie: uIs it too good to be true? If a deal looks too good to pass up, you might consider passing it up. The industry’s most common lies are about products that sound too good to be true.

Those postcard offers of a “free” cruise are the most egregious examples. uAre they using hyperbole? Everyone exaggerates in travel.

But an excess of hyperbole — calling yourself the “biggest” or “best” — can be a sign that someone is telling tall tales. Don’t become a victim of the rhetoric. uAre there warnings to heed? Liars don’t lie in a vacuum.

Eventually, they’re caught, and their untruths appear in online reviews and in the advice of your travel agent. Do your research and ignore the warnings at your peril.

member of the EU, I would get deep discounts on admission on museums and attractions throughout Italy,” recalls Coburn, author of We’ll Always Have Paris. “With a wink, he asked if I was any good at accents.”

She was. Coburn pretended to be British for the rest of her trip, and “saved a great deal at ticket counters.”

Traveler Gia Fitzgerald says she “stretched” the truth about the circumstances of a breakup with her boyfriend. They’d planned to fly to Vail for a ski vacation, but only a week before

Valentine’s Day, she ended the romance.

When Fitzgerald phoned United Airlines, she characterized the breakup differently. “I told them he broke up with me,” she says.

The agent sympathized and told her that she’d give her a full refund, even though her ticket was non-refundable.

This kind of behavior drives the travel industry crazy. They point out that lying has real consequences. Passengers who do deserve special consideration suffer when rules are tightened as a result of the abuse. Why would

customers do that kind of thing?

Maybe I can help. Travelers often tell lies because they feel as if they’ve been lied to. When they find a $9 fare on a discount airline, they expect to pay $9. When they’re offered an $89-a-night rate at a Las Vegas resort, same thing. Please, no mandatory “resort” fees. And car rentals — oh, don’t even get me started. Once you add fees, surcharges and taxes, you’re way over budget.

Similarly, the travel industry’s propensity for exaggeration is a turnoff, whether it’s four-star hotels that deserve only three or fine print that hides significant restrictions.

The issue can be more than a financial inconvenience. For someone like Cory Lee, a wheelchair user, terms like “accessible” have a specific meaning. “I’ve found from experience that some hotels will lie and say that the room is accessible even though it is really not,” says Lee, who writes a blog about disability issues. He has to ask specific questions like, “Does the room have a roll-in shower?” and “Is there an access lift on the pool?” And even then, he doesn’t always get what he’s promised.

There’s no excuse for that kind of misrepresentation. But how do you change it? Maybe a good first step is to come clean. Only 8% of business travelers surveyed by On Call International admitted that they lied to their employer about their activities while on a work-related trip. Just 8%?

Lying is rampant on both sides of the counter. Why can’t we just admit it?

Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler

now, including a bare-bones fare that comes with few perks. Delta calls it “Basic Economy” and offers it on select routes. Passengers buying the lowest fare get no advance seat assignment, board last and can’t change their ticket, even by paying a fee.

“At the end of the day, it’ll be driven by customer choice,” Kirby said.

Other travel nuggets from the conference: uAirline travelers have been slow to book tickets on mobile apps, mainly using them for dayof-travel help like checking in. uAirlines plan to invest heavily in automation because travelers want self-service at the airport, unlike 20 years ago when check-in kiosks were criticized as dehumanizing the travel experience.

ASK THE CAPTAIN

Q: Do pilots need sunglasses?

John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

Question: How do pilots deal with flying into direct sunshine? When I’m driving, I sometimes simply can’t see and pull over, but pilots don’t have that option.

— Sara Adler, Los Angeles Answer: Almost every airplane has sunshades for such conditions; when combined with a good pair of sunglasses, the sun glare is reduced to a manageable level. We definitely cannot stop, but at cruising altitude, above the transition altitude where all airplanes are required to be under air traffic control, there is little need to focus outside the airplane.

Q: How hard is it for pilots to land in the fog?

— Jim Horton, Pollock Pines, Calif.

A: Pilots are trained to land in low visibility. The type of Instrument Landing System (ILS) and the capability of the airplane determines the visibility requirements. A normal category I ILS allows for landing down to 1 ⁄2-mile visibility, a category II down to 1⁄4-mile visibility and category III to as low as 300 feet.

Q: Is it possible for it to be too hot to fly? — Via email A: Yes, all airplanes have a maximum temperature above which they are not permitted to fly.

THEY SAID WHAT? THE STARS’ BEST QUOTES “I want to make a heartfelt apology for whatever it is I end up accidentally saying during the forthcoming #JurassicWorld press tour. I hope you understand it was never my intention to offend anyone and I am truly sorry. I swear. I’m the nicest guy in the world.” — Chris Pratt, in a cheeky Facebook post before he embarks on a promotional tour for ‘Jurassic World,’ out June 12.

@freydkin USA TODAY

Somehow, while promoting her thriller Sicario at Cannes Film Festival, Emily Blunt became the savior of soles.

“Everyone should wear flats, to be honest,” she said at a news conference after reports that women were turned away from a gala premiere because they weren’t in heels. “I just prefer wearing Converse sneakers.”

Blunt went on to wear Christian Louboutin’s Puebla sandal, which boasts an impressive heel, and Pedro García’s Cecily patent sandals. But spending days teetering in heels is no small feat.

We’re talking about the aching, throbbing feet of all those women you see on red carpets, striding along in 5-inch stilettos. Can famous footsies ever get a break?

Not really, says Jaime Maser, a New York-based public relations guru who has handled many glitzy red-carpet galas.

“There are certain situations where style comes first — and when you’re a celeb, one of those situations are red carpets,” she says. “You have to dress the part.”

And A-listers know it. Jennifer Lawrence once described them as “Satan’s shoes” to USA TODAY while promoting Silver Linings Playbook — wearing very tall, gold heels that she took off as soon as her photo shoot was over.

Fashion equals pain, unless

you don’t care that much. Sofia Coppola, a style iconoclast, made headlines when she donned black flats for the 2004 Golden Globes.

Shailene Woodley, in keeping with her free-spirit persona, also wore flats to the 2012 Independent Spirit Awards.

“It’s a woman’s right to wear flats if she wants to — it does not make an outfit any less appropriate,” says Jeanann Williams, who styles Naomi Watts. “Flats don’t

mean sneakers or flip-flops; there are some chic flats out there. I love a woman in lace-up oxfords or a jeweled Grecian sandal.”

Technically, there’s no specific event at which flats are verboten, or in poor taste. It’s a question of confidence, says Aliza Licht, longtime fashion publicist and the author of Leave Your Mark: Land Your Dream Job. Kill It in Your Career. Rock Social Media.

“It depends on the look and

how you feel,” she says. “I personally won’t wear heels that hurt, and no one should. A hidden platform helps immensely.”

But no trickery can compensate for comfort. Blunt came to a lunchtime chat with USA TODAY last year in ultra-comfortable Isabel Marant wedge booties. And Katherine Heigl regretted spending her media day strapped into miserably uncomfortable pumps.

“I should have brought my Uggs,” she said. “My calves were cramping. I will never again wear high heels to fly. It’s stupid.”

Jennifer Garner once joked to us that all actresses go through footwear boot camp. “You go through a training course when you’re in the Screen Actors Guild.

They have an obstacle course in platform heels,” she said.

But all jokes aside, can someone please explain why Manolos and Louboutins and Givenchys and Zanottis are still considered mandatory? “Because heels just look better. They make your posture better. For many women it’s a mind-set. Heels are instant power and confidence,” says Licht — who adds that Kerry Washington told her the same thing.

“If I were advising a client, I would recommend she wear heels,” says publicist Jennifer Bickerton, who has worked with top brands including Guerlain and Frederic Fekkai on dozens of fancy events. “Let’s be honest: Heels make a women look sexier and complete an outfit better than flats.”

R&B DOWNLOAD You Changed Me, Tease, Baby’s in Love

Hooray for Hollywood?

Jamie Foxx musters polite applause, at best, on his first album in five years, subtitled A Story of a Dozen Roses.

The actor/ singer, whose biggest hits include the collaborations Blame It (featuring T-Pain) and Winner (with Justin Timberlake and T.I.), assembles an impressive cast of singers and producers here, including Chris Brown, Pharrell Williams, Kid Ink and DJ Mustard. But, unfortunately, not even the best costars can save Foxx from being upstaged by lackluster songwriting.

Hollywood follows a loose narrative of a relationship, starting with longing on You Changed Me. The sultry R&B track mostly works, thanks to its infectious hook and a fun verse from Brown, although you can’t help but cringe at groaners like “You mentally stimulate me / I’m really in love,

that’s crazy.”

The Wale-assisted Like a Drum gives off a brooding, bedroom vibe, until it reaches the chorus: “I’m gon’ beat it like a drum ... bom, bom, bom, bom” — a simile that’s more silly than seductive.

The album gets a much-needed jolt of energy when Williams arrives on Tease as guest vocalist and producer. His funky, flirty edge carries over into the next song, Baby’s in Love. Featuring newcomer Kid Ink, the carefree track is Foxx’s best shot at a crossover pop hit this round.

But those are the most appealing petals on this Story of a Dozen Roses, which wilts as the album descends into more lustful and brokenhearted cuts. The catchy hook of Text Message can’t save this eye-rolling ode to textual hookups (“LOL, smiley face, the emoji with the tongue out”).

And he comes across more pathetic than sweet on saccharine piano ballad Love By Now (“I’m supposed to be in love by now / Well, girl you stole my heart, take a bow”).

Overall, you have to admire Foxx for going the straight R&B route and not angling for mainstream appeal. But he may want to save his ticket to Hollywood, because this inconsistent effort isn’t likely to put him back in the music spotlight.

Minnesota Timberwolves general manager/former Kansas University guard Milt Newton, who was born and raised in the Virgin Islands, returned to St. Thomas with his wife, Shalaun Newton, earlier this month to speak with youths about the importance of education and also announce the formation of a charitable foundation to assist youngsters who live in the U.S. territory.

Newton’s “Emerald Gems Foundation” will hold a free two-day camp and clinic for 75 campers, ages 8-17, on Aug. 6-8 at the University of Virgin Islands. Former KU coach Larry Brown, who led Newton’s 1988 KU team to an NCAA title, will take part in a coaching clinic at the event.

“Every time I come back to the territory to speak, I look out into the crowd and remember when I was Newton a kid here growing up and how it felt seeing someone that wanted to come back and share their story with me,” Newton said, speaking to students at Bertha Boschulte Middle School, as reported by the St. Thomas Source newspaper.

“I want to let you (students) know that there is hope, but that you have to set goals and make the decisions every day that you need to achieve those goals.”

He related the story of his having to repeat seventh grade because he skipped school so often to play basketball.

“I loved playing the game.

I played it every day, even to the point where I would get in trouble. I missed so many days of class that I failed the seventh grade and had to do it over. I wasn’t thinking about the decision I was making at the time, I was just thinking about basketball instead of paying attention to my teacher,” Newton said.

“Everyone wants to be an athlete, wants to play basketball or baseball. But if I didn’t do my work, I learned that I couldn’t play basketball, so the one thing that kept me really focused when I was your age, was that I wanted to play basketball so much that I actually had to do my homework and that helped me go on to be a really good student in high school and college.”

Running backs Bourbon, Cox preparing for sixth season — but only one as a Jayhawk

By Tom Keegan Twitter: @TomKeeganLJW

James Sims exhausted his eligibility and cleared the path for seniors Brandon Bourbon and Taylor Cox to compete for the starting tailback job as seniors.

The competition ended for both of them when they suffered season-ending injuries on back-to-back days in midAugust. Bourbon went down with a torn ACL, Cox a torn Achilles tendon.

Nobody could have begrudged either fast, powerful running back had he chosen to end his football career, heal his body and move on to a safer occupation.

Neither chose to do so.

Both men will play college football for a sixth season, Cox at Kansas, Bourbon at Div. II Washburn University. Cox spent two years in junior college and enters his fourth year at Kansas, after missing all but one game of the past two seasons to injury.

Bourbon red-shirted his freshman season and again last season. Because his freshman red shirt was not of the medical variety, he was not granted a sixth year of eligibility to play Div. I football. Div. II does not have a similar restriction.

Bourbon and Cox are linked not solely because

they were injured on backto-back days.

“Throughout our rehab process we were basically like brothers,” Cox said. “We spent every day together, and I was really sad to hear he couldn’t come back and join our team this year. Like I said, we were like brothers.”

Bourbon, a graduate of Kansas who spent this past semester as a graduate-assistant strength coach at Washburn, said they talk on the phone weekly.

“I would consider Taylor a brother to me,” Bourbon said. “Man, the stuff he’s gone through and the stuff I’ve gone through, we went through a lot of adversity

together. Taylor’s going to have an amazing year. I’m excited to see it.”

During his time at KU, Bourbon suffered a broken leg and an ankle injury well in advance of popping the ACL in a scrimmage last August.

“It makes you tougher than you can imagine,” he said of the two having to do so much rehab. “I would say there aren’t two hungrier college football players than Taylor Cox and me.”

Recovering from different painful injuries, the two backs pushed each other daily.

That led to four St. Louis runs, which was more than enough for Michael Wacha.

Ventura struck out seven in seven innings, but the Kansas City Royals were shut down by Wacha in a 6-1 loss on Sunday.

Salvador Perez extended his hitting streak to 10 games and singled home a

run for Kansas City, which had won five in a row.

Ventura walked the first two hitters on 10 pitches and both scored. Jhonny Peralta hit an RBI single and Matt Adams doubled home a run.

“The first two hitters, he was just missing,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

“There were some pitches that I thought could have gone either way that resulted in walks. He kind of got it dialed back in a little bit,

then (gave up) the checkedswing single to Peralta and then a first-pitch fastball to Adams for a double. He did a good job of limiting the damage at that point.”

Ventura (3-4), who threw 30 pitches in the first, then settled down and didn’t allow another hit until the sixth.

“Nothing changed,” Ventura said through an interpreter. “I was in trouble in the first inning. I lost the

feel of it a little bit. But after that I was able to go out and throw strikes.”

Matt Carpenter hit a tworun homer for St. Louis in the sixth.

The Longhorns (30-25) earned an automatic NCAA Tournament berth, winning the conference tournament for a record fifth time and first since 2009.

Oklahoma State (37-18) lost in the title game for the second consecutive year.

The right-handed hitting Gurwitz, who entered Sunday batting .257, was selected the tournament’s most outstanding player. He had had eight hits in 13 at-bats with three RBIs. The Longhorns were helped by three errors as they erased a 2-1 deficit with five runs in the eighth.

Kirk claims Colonial Fort Worth, Texas — Chris Kirk made a par-saving 7-foot putt after an errant tee shot at the 18th hole, avoiding a playoff at Colonial and winning by a stroke Sunday for his fourth career PGA Tour victory.

After Kirk hooked his tee shot at No. 18 into the left rough, he hit his approach from 155 yards over the green. A nice chip set up the winning putt.

Snedeker, who closed with a 67, hit a similar tee shot as Kirk on the final hole and hit to 12 feet. But his birdie try that would have tied Kirk slid left of the hole.

Bohn had a 63 that included six consecutive birdies on the front nine. Spieth shot 65, with a near-birdie that became a bogey at the par-3 16th hole.

Montgomerie finished at 8-under 280 on The Pete Dye Course at French Lick Resort to successfully defend his title and win for the third time in the last six senior major championships. The 51-year-old Scot won last year at Harbor Shores in Michigan, and also won the U.S. Senior Open in July in Oklahoma.

Beckman used a pair of 3.9-second runs to outrun Courtney Force and John Hale in earlier rounds and then beat Del Worsham in the semifinals before powering to another 3-second run to beat John Force.

It was Beckman’s second victory of the season and 17th overall.

“We had an outstanding week of racing,” said Beckman, who set the record for the most three-second Funny Car runs by a driver in a weekend with five.

“That’s a function of the (crew chief) Jimmy Prock tune-up, (the car) is so much fun to drive.”

Richie Crampton won in Top Fuel, and Erica Enders in Pro Stock.

Crampton powered his Morgan Lucas Racing dragster to his second Top Fuel victory of the season with a 3.738 at 318.09 to hold off Larry Dixon. It was Crampton’s fourth career victory.

Enders raced to her third victory of the season and 15th of her career, beating Greg Anderson with a 6.584 at 209.33 in a Chevy Camaro.

FRENCH OPEN

Brush with fan miffs Federer Paris (ap) — Roger Federer was not amused.

As Federer finished an interview after his first-round French Open victory Sunday, an overzealous fan left his seat and approached the 17-time major champion right there on the main stadium court in search of the most modern of mementos — a cellphone selfie.

At first, Federer seemed startled. Then he looked uncomfortable, trying to brush away the unexpected guest, who appeared to be in his teens, before a guard led the spectator away. And in the end, Federer

LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps

was angry at what he considered a serious lapse in security.

“I’m not happy about it. Obviously, not (for) one second (am I) happy about it,” Federer said, adding that something similar happened a day earlier, when several kids interrupted his practice session at Roland Garros. “Normally I only speak on behalf of myself, but in this situation, I think I can speak on behalf of all the players — that that’s where you do your job, that’s where you want to feel safe.”

Tournament director Gilbert Ysern headed to the locker room to offer a personal apol-

ogy and also spoke to Federer’s wife, Mirka, in the players’ lounge. Ysern called it “embarrassing” and acknowledged Federer “has good grounds for being unhappy,” but chalked the whole thing up to “lack of judgment” on the part of the security staff that let the intruder get by.

It was, certainly as far as Federer was concerned, the most noteworthy development on Day 1 at the clay-court Grand Slam tournament. Like No. 2 Federer, who beat Colombia’s Alejandro Falla 6-3, 6-3, 6-4, most seeded players progressed without a hitch.

when he was 14, told reporters that his and his wife’s foundation will focus on “inspiring and encouraging students to learn how to make the same kinds of decisions (as Newton learned to), both on and off the field.”

“This is something we’re doing to give back to the territory, the place where I got my start,” Newton told the St. Thomas Source. “And it’s going to be an ongoing thing, with us hopefully being able to implement programs down the line and provide opportunities for the students to experience positive things, so they can learn that they have just as much of the same potential as any other kid.

“We want to bring in coaches willing to give seminars, or teach our coaches in the territory the correct way of playing the game,” Newton added. “A lot of coaches think they know how to do certain things, and that may be true, but when you can bring in Hall of Fame coaches that can show what has helped them get to the level that they’re at, well, we think that’s a very positive thing.”

Newton said he always knew he’d return to assist youths in the Virgin Islands. His plans, he said, accelerated in September of 2014 when the 30th Legislature of U.S. Virgin Islands unanimously passed on the Senate Floor Bill No. 30-0415. It renamed the recreational center in Estate Bordeaux (west end of St. Thomas where Milt grew up) the “Milton M. Newton Basketball Court and Recreational facility.”

It was on that court, formerly named the “Bordeaux Court and Recreational Facility,”

“We were together all day during that fall,” Bourbon said. “Every practice we were working out together. We worked rehab together, went to all the meetings together and were together pretty much the entire day. I couldn’t have picked a better guy to go through that with.”

Bourbon and Cox had more than injuries in common. They were similarly productive when healthy.

Cox has rushed 97 times for 508 yards and three touchdowns at KU, an average of 5.2 yards per carry. Bourbon carried the ball 81 times for 422 yards and four touchdowns for KU, also gaining an average of 5.2 yards per carry.

Washburn coach Craig Schurig said he plans to use Bourbon as a tailback in a pro-style offense similar to that employed by former Kansas coach Charlie Weis. In 2013, Bourbon also played some at receiver, catching 20 passes.

Schurig cited Bourbon’s speed, size, proven ability as a blocker and a back catching balls out of the backfield as reasons he believes the NFL will monitor his progress. He praised his attitude as well.

“Sometimes when you see a guy come down (from Div. I), he might be a little distant,” Schurig said.

“That’s not the case at all with Brandon. He’s excited to be here, and the guys are really excited to have him.”

Every day on Bourbon’s calendar is marked with the number of days remaining until he can resume his football career in a game, Thursday, Sept. 3 in St. Charles, Missouri, 7 p.m. kickoff against Lindenwood University, 80 miles from his hometown of Potosi, Mo. Two days, a popped

MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES GENERAL MANAGER MILT NEWTON RESPONDS to a question during a media availability in this file photo from June 6, 2014, in Minneapolis. that KU’s No. 37 all-time scorer (1,166 points) was introduced to hoops.

“It is the most distinguished honor I have ever received,” Milt told the Journal-World.

Establishing an annual program of coaching seminars and youth camps and clinics, he said, “is to educate the coaches and youths of the Virgin Islands and develop their talents. The ultimate vision is to start with basketball camps and gradually grow the foundation to include other charitable programs and contributions. ‘Emerald Gems’ is the name chosen for the foundation due to its significance. The U.S. Virgin Islands are the Emeralds of the Sea and Gems represent how (Milt) views the youths.”

Newton, who has a daughter, Shaniya and son, Miles, was peppered with questions by youths during speeches at Virgin Island schools about completing the trade that brought Andrew Wiggins to the Wolves and sent Kevin Love packing to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

“I mean, we got back the rookie of the year.

What more do you want?”

Newton joked as reported by the Virgin Island Daily News.

One student said it was educational to listen to Newton’s words of wisdom.

hamstring and a torn Achilles later, Cox will be in uniform for Kansas in its opener vs. South Dakota State in Memorial Stadium. Cox made his KU debut against the same school in 2012 and rushed for 121 yards, 39 on one run, and a touchdown in a 31-17 victory.

Recovering from an injury as painful as an Achilles requires physical and mental adjustments.

“I think if he’s healthy he’ll be able to make a major contribution,” runningbacks coach Reggie Mitchell said. “For him, he can see it, but he can’t get there yet.

Hopefully through the summer and fall camp he’ll get the confidence in himself that he had before and be able to come out and make a major contribution.”

Cox said during spring football that the Achilles did not give him trouble, but that he didn’t feel his legs were quite back to 100 percent strength.

“I do have one, but I’d rather kind of view my whole career here at Kansas as kind of a perseverance story,” Cox said when asked if he had a KU highlight so far. “I’ve had multiple injuries. I’ve been through multiple coaching staffs. I think it’s just a story of perseverance.”

His body might have been telling him to walk away, but his heart prevailed.

“With all the love I have for this game, there never was a question of whether I wanted to be done if I had the opportunity to keep on playing,” Cox said. “I think staying optimistic and having faith in myself to keep on moving forward is what has kept me going.”

Bourbon has helped Cox to keep on going as well, and Cox has returned the favor. They express belief in themselves and in each other, convinced the best season of their careers is a few months away.

“The main thing I got from this was goals and being able to go to college and be an athlete, but also get an education,” Kean High School senior Kerrol Laurent told the Daily News. “That and to come back and help people that have helped you and to help your family.”

All in the family: Newton’s wife, Shalaun, is a former sprinter for a Minnetonka (Minneapolis suburb) team that won two Minnesota state high school girls track championships (1985-86). She met Milt at KU, where she was a sprinter as a freshman.

“I’m very excited. This has been a dream of his for 22 years. It’s also been a dream for me for this to happen to him,” she told the St. Paul Pioneer Press when Newton was named Minnesota GM in 2013. l

Newton agreed to take part in a short Q and A with the Journal-World How important is giving back to youths in the Virgin Islands to Milt Newton?

and intelligent young people in the USVI. Like me, some just need encouragement and a positive role model to look up to. As a teenager in Washington DC, I was exposed to two such people who had a profound influence on my development as a person. Kent and Carmen Amos, the two people I call my mom and dad.”

What are your fondest memories of KU? “Winning the NCAA championship in 1988 and getting both my bachelors and master’s degree from KU. I was the first person in my family to receive both degrees.”

What are the biggest challenges and rewards of being a GM in the NBA? “The biggest challenge is getting that player who legitimately can be superstar. When you have that piece in place, that’s half the battle.

We now have that in Andrew Wiggins. Another challenge is managing all the different personalities and agendas of your players and the outside influences on your players that are pro-individual rather than pro-team. The biggest rewards are watching your team win as they grow together, compete, and play the right way, as well as seeing your players develop and reach their full potential.”

How did KU prepare you for NBA front office work?

“As an alumni of Kansas University, I had some great professors who prepared me for my career in the NBA. The late Dr. Nona Tollefson is one professor who prepared me tremendously for my career. Dr. David Cook and Associate Dean Jerry Bailey are two other influential people in my education at KU.” And any other thing you might want to say to the fans?

ROYALS PITCHER YORDANO VENTURA (30) AND CATCHER SALVADOR PEREZ MEET on the mound during the first inning of the Royals’ 6-1 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Royals CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Wacha allowed an unearned run and five singles in seven innings, lowering his ERA to 1.87 in nine starts. He is the first Cardinals pitcher to start 7-0 since Matt Morris won his first eight decisions in 2005.

“He kept us off balance the entire game,” Kansas City center fielder Lorenzo Cain said.

“He threw his heater, his slider away. He did a good job.”

Down 4-1, the Royals loaded the bases with two outs in the sixth, but Alex Gordon flied out on a 2-0 count, which Wacha said was the biggest out of the game.

“I missed on a couple of fastballs in,” Wacha said. “I didn’t want to go 3-0 on him. I just had to try to paint the inside corner and luckily got it in there enough and (Randal) Grichuk made a good play on it.”

JUAN PABLO MONTOYA CELEBRATES HIS VICTORY in the 99th running of the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday in Indianapolis.

Montoya nabs second 500 Indianapolis (ap) — His career at a crossroads, his confidence shot, Juan Pablo Montoya received a lifeline from The Captain.

Roger Penske called the driver in late 2013, when Montoya found himself without a job after seven frustrating seasons in NASCAR that had turned one of the baddest drivers on the planet into a struggling also-ran.

The catch? Penske’s offer was a return to Indy cars, which Montoya had left behind years ago. The Colombian jumped at the opportunity and cashed in on it Sunday with his second Indianapolis 500 victory.

The first one was 15 years ago and a stepping stone to Formula One. The second one came for a 39-year-old man who proved JPM is back.

In a moment of sincerity following his win, flanked by Team Penske President Tim Cindric, Montoya briefly suggested how much this one meant to him.

“I’m glad I am proving them right, that they made the right choice,” he said, pausing and lowering his eyes. “I’m loving racing right now.”

Oh, that was evident for two weeks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where Montoya confidently boasted to his

three teammates that he’d win the race.

On Sunday, he twice drove from the back of the field and fearlessly charged into the final few laps as the leader in a race where few wanted to be out front with the checkered flag looming, and held off teammate Will Power.

That 2000 victory was easy, he’s always said so, and when a driver leads 167 of the 200 laps, it clearly was a relaxed Sunday drive.

Win No. 2 was a battle from the very beginning.

Montoya started 15th but an accident on the first lap brought out the caution and Montoya was hit from behind by Simona de Silvestro under yellow. He had to pit to repair the damage and restarted 30th.

After working his way back through the field, he was penalized for running over his air hose during a pit stop — and again was sent deep into the pack.

“Montoya coming from all the way in the back — I’ll tell you, you give that guy the bit and put it in his mouth ... he doesn’t give up,” Penske said.

His victory gave Penske his 16th Indianapolis 500 win, and first since Helio Castroneves in 2009.

Edwards snares Coca-Cola title Concord, N.C. (ap) — Carl Edwards won for the first time in two seasons — and the first time since joining Joe Gibbs Racing — moving in front 20 laps from the end to take the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday night.

Edwards hadn’t won in 31 races since June 2014 at Sonoma. He ended his long association with Roush Fenway Racing this past offseason, hoping for bigger things with JGR. He got it at Charlotte Motor Speedway after shuffling in front as most of his competitors needed green-flag pit stops close to the end. Most figured Edwards would have to stop, too, but he remained on the track and cruised to his first victory at Charlotte.

Greg Biffle was second, followed by Dale Earnhardt Jr., pole-sitter Matt Kenseth and Martin Truex Jr., who had his 11th top-10 finish in 12 events this season.

Edwards parked his car, did his signature back flip and rushed into the waiting arms of his crew, all jumping around in

celebration. He climbed into the stands to grab the checkered flag before heading to victory lane.

“JGR is back,” Edwards said.

The win gave JGR a Charlotte sweep after Denny Hamlin won the All-Star Race on May 16th.

Hamlin looked like he might gain the sweep on his own, leading the pack with less than 50 laps remaining. But Hamlin felt a vibration in a wheel and had no choice but to head to the pits to straighten out — costing him his chance at the victory.

Hamlin finished eighth.

The fourth Joe Gibbs racer, new father Kyle Busch, was 11th in his first points race since breaking his right leg and left in a crash at Daytona three months ago.

Edwards capped racing’s biggest day. It began when Nico Rosberg got his third straight win at the Monaco Grand Prix. It continued in Indianapolis when one-time NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya won the Indy 500 for the second time.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Astros rally, tame Tigers The Associated Press

American League Astros 10, Tigers 8 Detroit — Evan Gattis and Preston Tucker both homered in the sixth inning, and Houston slugged its way to another victory Sunday, rallying past Detroit.

The Astros trailed 7-3 before scoring four runs in the sixth, including Tucker’s three-run shot as a pinch hitter that tied the game. The following inning, Jason Castro lined a tiebreaking two-run single with the bases loaded and two out.

Dear Readers: Memorial Day has become a three-day holiday of picnics and cookouts.

But there is a reason for this commemoration, so please remember the servicemen and women who died serving their country. Consider visiting a veterans hospital or military cemetery and paying your respects. At 3 p.m. local time, the National Moment of Remembrance asks for 60 seconds of silence to remember U.S. service members who gave their lives in the line of duty. And if you have a flag, it is appropriate to display it at half-staff until noon.

Dear Annie: Who decided when someone becomes an adult? Legally, you can vote at 18.

You can obtain a gun or cigarettes and sign up for the military without your parents’ per-

mission. But you can’t drink until age 21. Who makes these rules?

My 18-year-old son recently needed surgery. When I called with a question about the bill, the doctors and hospital staff refused to answer me. I was told no one could speak to me because my son is an adult.

I politely said, “Excuse me, but that ‘adult’ is still in high school and lives in my home, and I am paying the bill.”

This very same

Lifetime, money mix in ‘Monaco’ Clearly made for a theatrical release, “Grace of Monaco” (8 p.m., Lifetime) premieres on cable, where it will probably reach more viewers. It was critically savaged after its debut at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, both for its fanciful history and the fact that it’s a narrative mess.

“Grace” probably cost 10 times the budget of the average Lifetime movie, but it shares a certain “woman in captivity” vibe with the recent Hannah Anderson effort.

With the exception of a laughable reliance on extreme closeups, it’s generally pretty to look at, but not entirely coherent.

Parker Posey appears to have had a major role before it was awkwardly whittled away in the editing process.

Set in 1962, “Grace” stars Nicole Kidman as Grace Kelly, the luminous Hollywood star whose 1956 fairy tale marriage to Prince Rainier (Tim Roth) has soured into dull domesticity. Her brash and opinionated Philadelphia-girl personality is ill-suited to court intrigue.

She mulls a move back to Hollywood to star in Alfred Hitchcock’s “Marnie.”

The film revolves around a small footnote in European history, a time when French dissatisfaction with Monaco’s tax policy threatened to escalate into a full-fledged border war and invasion. At the advice of wise and clever confidants (Frank Langella and Derek Jacobi), Grace puts all of her acting skills into becoming the most serene of royal highnesses and outmaneuvering her country’s adversaries.

This is where the movie gets both interesting and absurd.

“Grace” tries to portray Monaco — a principality with a long history of casinos and tax shelters for decadent international tycoons — as a tiny, put-upon victim with a proud history of resisting tyranny. This is, as they say, a bit much.

Tonight’s other highlights

“American Ninja Warrior” (7 p.m., NBC) returns.

The competition gets more intense on “500 Questions” (7 p.m., ABC).

Caleb approaches New York by sea on “Turn” (9 p.m., AMC).

Neil deGrasse Tyson hosts Jimmy Carter on “StarTalk” (10 p.m., National Geographic).

BIRTHDAYS Actor Sir Ian McKellen is 76.

Movie director and Muppeteer Frank Oz is 71. Actress Patti D’Arbanville is 64. Actor-comedian Mike Myers is 52. Actorcomedian Jamie Kennedy is 45.

Actress Octavia Spencer is 45.

“adult” can’t keep his room clean, yet he is responsible for making sure his medical expenses are billed correctly? And he’s supposed to pay them promptly from his minimum-wage part-time job? My son can stay on my medical insurance until he is 26, but I can’t ask a question? They say it’s for reasons of privacy, yet this “adult” boy walked through the living room in his underwear last week, and any idiot can find lots of personal information about him on the Internet.

And if an 18-yearold is responsible for his medical bills, why does the college look at my income when he requests financial aid?

When these children learn to be responsible for their own expenses, they will become real

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, May 25: This year you develop a better sense of what you are capable of. If you are single, you could meet someone of significance in the next few months. If you are attached, the two of you find this period to be extremely romantic and fulfilling.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You might find it hard to get going this morning. Allow yourself to be somewhat impulsive. Tonight: Kick your feet up and relax.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You seem to be an endless source of ideas. You might prefer to spend Memorial Day with a loved one. Tonight: Get the most out of the long weekend.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You are fiery and difficult to stop. Others often are amazed by your enthusiasm.

Tonight: At home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You are likely to say what you think and mean what you say. Choose your words with care. Tonight: A long-overdue chat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Anything less exciting than what you have experienced during the past few days could be a downer. Tonight: Enjoy the moment.

adults in the real world.

While there is no age at which everyone will be mature, we should at least make the laws equal. Any suggestions?

— A. Dear A.: Well, you could write to your congressperson about changing the laws. We agree that some seem arbitrary. Nonetheless, HIPAA grants medical privacy to all adults, and there are valid reasons for this. The way to get information for your son is to ask him to give his physician written consent for you to have access to his medical records and information. If he expects you to pay the bills, he should be happy to do this.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can have your way if you know what you want.

Don’t let a parent’s attitude get to you. Tonight: As you like it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Right now, it might appear to others that you are avoiding them, but in truth, you just need some rest. Tonight: News could be unsettling.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Defer to others, as it might be easier in the long run.

You will be most content with friends. Tonight: The party goes on and on.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might feel as if you have to pitch in and help someone with his or her Memorial Day party. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Look beyond the obvious. You might feel as if you have too much on your plate. Tonight: Take it easy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Use caution with financial matters, as money is likely to drift right out of your hand.

Tonight: Be with a favorite person.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You will bring forth many possibilities because of your upbeat attitude. Tonight: Defer to someone else.
