Pictured is the Des Moines Metropolitan Planning Organization’s data bike. The data bike project has been spearheaded by Creston native Marcus Coenen. The data bike uses an iPhone app to record the roughness of recreational trails, while a GoPro camera attached to the back takes georeferenced photos of the trail as the bike travels over the surface. A 360-degree camera sticking up out of the frame of the bike also takes photos, which will be uploaded to Google Street View, providing cyclists a view of the trails before they ever set out on a ride.

DES MOINES – The Des Moines Metropolitan Planning Organization is taking on an ambitious mission to grade the condition of central Iowa’s expansive recreational trail system.

The MPO is blazing a trail in the United States with its use of a data bike to collect information about the trail system.

Leading the way on the project is Creston native Marcus Coenen, who MPO Communications Manager Gunnar Olson called the “big brains” behind the project.

Data on road conditions in the metro is collected using large trucks with sensors, but that equipment

is too large to work on the trail system.

MPO Executive Director R. Todd Ashby recognized the lack of data in regards to the trail system and challenged his team to find a way to collect that data.

Around that time, Coenen, an associate transportation planner for MPO, attended a conference and was able put the wheels in motion for the data bike project.

Coenen learned about R i v a l S o l u tions, a Canadian company that had developed a smart- Coenen phone app that

measures the roughness of “IT’S A really cool a road and translates that project to work roughness into a score. Coenen combined that app on just because it with an E-bike to come up hasn’t been done with a solution.

Senate leaders scramble to save health bill amid defections Senate leaders scrambled Tuesday to rescue their health care bill, in deepening jeopardy as opposition from rebellious Republicans intensified. The defections loomed as Congress’ nonpartisan budget referee said the measure would leave 22 million more people uninsured by 2026 than President Barack Obama’s law.

Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was hoping to staunch his party’s rebellion, a day after the Congressional Budget Office re- McConnell leased its report.

He’s been aiming at winning Senate passage this week, before a weeklong July 4 recess that leaders worry opponents will use to weaken support for the legislation.

The CBO analysis suggested some ammunition GOP leaders could use, saying the Senate bill would cut federal deficits by $202 billion more over the coming decade than the version the House approved in May. Senate leaders could use some of those additional savings to attract moderate votes by making Medicaid and other provisions more generous, though conservatives would rather use that money to reduce red ink.

“You don’t want to bring something up unless you know you have the votes to pass it. But I also think we

may not know if we have the votes to pass it until we bring it up,” said No. 3 GOP Senate leader John Thune of South Dakota.

The projected boost in uninsured people fed concerns by moderate Republican lawmakers that the Senate measure, annulling parts of Obama’s 2010 overhaul, was too drastic. Yet conservatives were unhappy that it didn’t do enough to dismantle Obama’s law and lower premiums by repealing coverage requirements, leaving McConnell with little margin for error _ the bill fails if three of the 52 GOP senators vote no.

The 22 million extra Americans were just 1 million fewer than the number the budget office estimated would become uninsured under the House version.

President Donald Trump has called the House b i l l “mean” and prodded senators to produce a package Trump with more “heart.”

Minutes after the report’s release, three GOP senators threatened to oppose a procedural vote to begin debate expected Wednesday _ enough to derail the legislation.

Moderate Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she would vote no. She tweeted HEALTH | 2A

Ruling in travel ban leaves myriad questions unanswered The Supreme Court’s decision to partially reinstate President Donald Trump’s temporary travel ban has left the effort to keep some foreigners out of the United States in a murky middle ground, with unanswered questions and possibly more litigation ahead.

The justices ruled Monday in an unsigned opinion they would hold a full hearing on the case in October. In the meantime, the administration can bar travelers from six majority-Muslim countries from the U.S. if they don’t have a “credible claim of a bona fide relationship” with someone or some entity in the country.

It’s unclear what will ulti-

mately constitute a “bona fide relationship,” though the ruling suggested that an American job, school enrollment or a close relative could meet that threshold. Equally unclear is how many foreigners will be affected from the six countries: Syria, Sudan, Iran, Yemen, Libya and Somalia.

The ruling was seen as at least a partial victory for Trump in the biggest court case of his presidency. Trump claims the temporary ban is needed to prevent terrorist attacks. Opponents reject that and argue it’s a backdoor way to bar Muslims from entering the United States, as Trump TRAVEL | 2A

She attended the Apostolic Church in Dos Palos where she met and fell in love with Jose Rios. The couple were united in marriage Aug. 30, 2004, in Los Banos, California. Born to bless this union were seven children, Carlos, Jonathan, David, Ashley, Evalynne, Esteban and Eliana.

While the family was still living in California, Elizabeth attended nursing school. She worked in various homes caring for individuals. In 2013, the family moved to Lenox.

She worked at Michael Foods for a couple of years.

In 2016, she went to work for the Lenox public school system as a translator. This was a position she truly loved. Helping children and adults communicate and learn gave her such joy. In 2015, she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Having a “never give up” attitude, Elizabeth fought hard through both chemotherapy and radiation.

Through the Make A Wish Foundation, Elizabeth was able to have a life long dream of a “fairy tale wedding” come true. On Aug. 20, 2016, at the Lenox Community Center, Elizabeth and Jose renewed their vows, recommitting their love and lives before their family and friends in the community.

Elizabeth had a deep

love and passion for her children, family and God. Besides translating for the community, she also enjoyed a deep faith in her Lord and Savior attending the Apostolic Church in Des Moines. Elizabeth was a fantastic cook and loved socializing with anyone.

Left to cherish the memories of a wonderful wife, mother and friend is her loving husband of 12 years, Jose Rios of Lenox; her seven children, Carlos Cortez of Lenox, Jonathan Rios and fiancée Carolina, and their daughter (Elizabeth’s only grandchild) Sonia, of Merced, California, David Cortez of Lenox, Ashley Rios of Merced, California, Evalynne Valenzuela, Esteban and Eliana Rios, all of Lenox; four brothers, Antonio Valenzuela of Lenox, Frank Valenzuela and girlfriend April of Bedford, Junior Valenzuela and wife Maria of Lenox and Ramon Valenzuela and wife Maria of Dos Palos, California; in-laws, Jose and Marita Solano Rios of Guadalajara, Mexico; along with many other relatives and friends.

Although Elizabeth will be greatly missed, her love and inspiration will live on through her family.

May she be at peace in God’s loving care.

Zachary Paul McMahon, son of Richard and Laurie McMahon, was born Sept. 6, 1975, in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Zach graduated from Lenox Community Schools in 1993, and went on to earn a Doctorate in pharmacy in 2000 from University of Iowa.

Zach worked as a clinical pharmacist and hospital administrator, as well as working in consulting and conducting research.

On Feb. 27, 2016, he married Becca Ayne Bell, and they made their home in Olathe, Kansas.

Zach is survived by his wife Becca; mother and step-father, Laurie and Ronald Travis; father and step-mother, Richard and Linda McMahon; brothers and sisters, Trevor (Stephanie) McMahon, Michael Travis, Teresa and Neal Schnoor, Randee and Roberto Ruiz and Jackie and Jamie Trutter; step-brother Jack; step-sister Rachael; step-children, Olivia, Ethan and Brooklyn, and nephews and nieces, Rachel, Graham, Grant, Bobby, Ava, Briley and Oliver.

Zach was preceded in death by his grandparents, Evelyn and Paul Lund, Dick McMahon and Lloyd and Esther Travis and uncle John McMahon.

cial familiar with the situation said the Trump administration has plans in place to relaunch the stalled ban and tourists will be among those kept out.

Under these plans, largely orchestrated by White House adviser Stephen Miller, tourists from those countries and any academics, lecturers or others invited to speak or

make presentations in the U.S. will be barred. Those groups are regarded as unable to show a substantial and pre-existing tie to a person or institution in the United States.

The official who described the plans was not authorized to discuss them publicly by name and spoke on condition of anonymity.

“We get to set the bar and get feedback. It’s always fun being a trend-setter.”

“We don’t think this specific combination has been done before,” Olson added.

“I would say a lot of this stuff we’re doing is very early adoption of emerging technologies.”

How it works The project uses a cargo bike with the capacity for carrying extra weight. It is also an electric-assist bicycle, meaning as the rider pedals, an electric engine gauges pull and push, allowing the rider to travel further, longer, with less effort and maintain a constant speed.

Currently, the team has determined a target speed of 12 mph. That speed may change as the team examines data.

“The significance for our project with that is we want a constant rate of speed in order to have as consistent Olson

data collection as possible,” Olson said. “We may decide a different target speed may work better.”

As the bike travels over the trail, the iPhone app uses a gyroscope to record vibrations caused by imperfections in the pavement.

It is also equipped with a GoPro camera that takes photos of the trail surface as the bike travels over the trail.

The photos from the GoPro camera are georeferenced back to that segment of trail so the MPO can pull up a specific location on a trail to view a photo of why the trail might have a lower rating that another segment.

“It creates this tool where you can identify problem spots, examine the trail at your desk and then make the decision whether or not you need to go out in the field to do more examination,” Coenen said.

A 360-degree camera was added to the bike after conversations between the MPO and its partner organization Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation.

Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation wanted to do a Google Street View version of central Iowa’s trail system, allowing cyclists to view interesting points along the trail before going out for a ride.

By adding the 360-degree camera, the MPO is able to collect photos to contribute to that project.

Google’s Street View team saw headlines about the data bike and reached out to the MPO to offer support and advice on how to pair the data bike with Google Street View.

After a couple of days of initial testing to make sure the app worked properly and cameras were functioning, Coenen started data collection Wednesday.

After two days of data collection, Coenen said he’d captured a little more than 5 percent of the roughly 600

miles of central Iowa’s trail system he hopes to canvas.

Among the trails that will be surveyed by the data bike are the Great Western, Neal Smith, Gay Lea Wilson and Raccoon River Valley trails.

“We have a ways to go, but we made a good dent in just two days,” Coenen said.

“Our priority is the regional paved trails, then we’ll try to get to more neighborhood trails when we get done with the regional trails.”

Coenen, who was responsible for piecing together the different components of the bike, is now in charge of data processing once the bike returns each day from collecting data and images.

worries about the bill’s Medicaid cuts and reductions in people with coverage.

The budget office report said the Senate bill’s coverage losses would especially affect people between ages 50 and 64, before they qualify for Medicare, and with incomes below 200 percent of poverty level, or around $30,300 for an individual.

In one example, the report says that in 2026 under Obama’s law, a 64-year-old earning $26,500 would pay premiums amounting to $1,700 a year, after subsidies.

Under the Senate bill, that person would pay $6,500, partly because insurers would

be able to charge older adults more.

The Senate plan would end the tax penalty that law imposes on people who don’t buy insurance, in effect erasing Obama’s so-called individual mandate, and on larger businesses that don’t offer coverage to workers.

It would let states ease Obama’s requirements that insurers cover certain specified services like substance abuse treatments, and eliminate $700 billion worth of taxes over a decade, CBO said, largely on wealthier people and medical companies that Obama’s law used to expand coverage.

The goal Olson said the data bike project has two main goals – to collect data on the trail systems and to explore the functionalities of the data bike and determine how else it can be used.

“We have this extensive trail network that is going to start to age,” Olson said.

“We need to shift dollars from new to maintenance.

Maintenance is very expensive. One of the long-term goals here is to equip our local governments with really good information so they can make strategic longterm budgeting decisions to maintain the trail systems that are a great asset for Des Moines.

“We’re getting a lot of people asking us questions because not a lot of people are doing things like this,” Olson said. “Are there different functionalities with this tool? Could it be used elsewhere in the state? Are there ways we can share this technology with others so they can get data for their trail networks?”

The Des Moines MPO has already been contacted

by MPOs in other cities and city planners from Toronto and Minneapolis to inquire about the project.

that she favors a bipartisan effort to fix Obama’s statute but added, “CBO analysis shows Senate bill won’t do it.”

Conservative Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said he would oppose that motion unless the bill was changed. And fellow conservative Ron Johnson, R-Wis., said he had “a hard time believing” he’d have enough information to back that motion this week.

Moderate Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., on Friday said he’d oppose the procedural motion without alterations.

Those rebels were just part of McConnell’s problem. Two other conserva- Before, During and Afterr tives – Texas’ Ted Cruz and Utah’s Mike Lee – have also said they’d vote no without revisions, and several other moderates have expressed We’ll be there in your time of need.

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, June 27, 2017

Crazy shoes and my 4 must-do’s for this Fourth of July Editor’s note: This is the fifth guest column by Kyle Wilson. His columns publish in the Creston News Advertiser on the fourth Tuesday of every month.

This coming weekend my wife Stormy will log her third half marathon.

She’s been training since early May for this one. Her father dropped off a new pair of running shoes at our house Saturday. The shoes — an early birthday present — were like nothing I’ve seen ever pulled out of a box before.

They are made by a company called Hoka One One (pronounced Ho-Kah Own-ay Ownay). Stormy’s are blue jewel and neon coral in color with a gigantic, almost cartoonish looking sole. These soles are so ridiculously thick that even the co-founders of this company, a couple of Frenchmen named Nicolas Mermoud and Jean-Luc Diard, concur right on the homepage of their website the shoe is “crazy looking.”

But, trail and marathon runners have fallen in love with the Hoka comfort.

Stormy’s shoe — a Clifton 3 — has 160 reviews on Zappos with 124 customers giving a full fivestar rating. Talk about some satisfaction.

You can get a peek of them in action on Sunday, but you’ll have to come out that morning and support Stormy Lee and the other runners competing in the Creston Half Marathon. They’ll be grinding through a challenging 13.1-mile course and your encouragement will mean more than you think.

The full routes for the half marathon and 5K can be found

These are Stormy’s new Hoka One One running shoes. They are made specifically for marathoners and trail runners. Hoka One One (pronounced Ho-Kah Ownay Own-ay) is a phrase used by the Maoris of New Zealand and means “flying over the earth.”

The cost for most Hoka shoes are in the $100 range.

In Transit Kyle Wilson guest columnist

at www.crestonhalfmarathon. com. You can still sign up there for both events. They are $35 and $25, respectively, with proceeds used for upkeep, expansion and amenities for the trail system in Creston. This event has become a staple of the Creston Fourth of July celebration, raising more than $8,000 for the trails over the past three years.

You know what I love?

Both routes showcase some of the new construction happening in Creston.

Runners will see the new condominiums being built in the Cottonwood Subdivision. There are five condos that are finished with buyers living in them, while a handful of others are partially complete. Runners will cross the new $1.3 million bridge on Adams Street, which offers a beautiful view of McKinley Lake. (See photo, right) Half marathoners will also see the new trail system that winds through Green Valley State Park.

But, the half marathon and 5K is just one activity to get excited about at this year’s 67th annual Fourth of July celebration in Creston. I see Mark Rounds will be hosting a 3-on-3 basketball tournament at the park on July 4.

I know Creston has some roundballers.

Don’t ask why, but here’s a team that comes to mind right away: Trevor Conner, Patrick Walsh, Dane Wardenburg. Maybe it’s because you still have family living in the area and I know you all have some game left.

Or, I know you Orient boys are thinking about coming to Creston for the Fourth. A team of Nathan Truman with Michael and Travis West sounds like a formidable three.

This is the first year for the event. Let’s see how many teams we can get to the courts that afternoon. For me, I’m considering the 3-on-3 tournament along with the High Lakes Young Professionals bags tournament, but the main 4 must-dos on my list for this year for the Creston Fourth celebration include: 1) Run the 5K. Yes, I know my wife is running the half marathon, Dave Danielson, and that

My College World Series experience I had the privilege of traveling westward to Omaha this past weekend to catch two College World Series games.

Kaleb Carter, the sports editor here at the Creston News Advertiser, and I moseyed down Highway 34 eagerly awaiting to see some of the nation’s best “amateurs” compete for a spot in the championship round.

We were interrupted twice when an accident forced us down a dirt road that we were both convinced was going to end at any given moment. The second interruption was minor, but more comical as we realized the first game had already started because we both assumed we were still in the eastern time zone. The schedule listed the start time as 3ET, so we were shooting for 3 o’clock instead of 2.

Once we reached Omaha and made it to TD Ameritrade Park, we took our seats in the outfield bleachers during the middle of the third inning. We knew the first game was going to be a doozy given that LSU and Oregon State held the two longest winning streaks of the season until they met for the first time the previous Monday.

After a couple more innings of play, I decided it was time to get some food and my line waiting experience of the College World Series began.

Life is full of constant decision making.

Waiting for adult beverages is going to take longer than waiting for a hot dog, but sometimes you choose to wait.

Other times you decide to spend

Carter’s 2 Cents Carter Eckl staff writer

less money on tickets by purchasing general admission.

I thought a great deal about taking the time in my first column to complain about a lot of issues I had with this process, but I won’t.

What I will say is that TD Ameritrade Park had room for 5,500 people to sit in the general admission section of its park. However, the decision was made to sell quite a few more tickets than that Friday night.

By the time Kaleb and I made it into the second game Friday night, hardly any seating was available.

The general admission line we were forced to wait in snaked its way from the entrance gate, down a couple blocks, around a fence and back along that fence for what felt like a mile.

While standing in line we were convinced we weren’t going to get into the park. Luckily we did.

Once we got into the stadium we realized how many people were still behind us in line.

General admission sure looked at capacity by the time we made it in given the lack of seating and amount of patrons standing on the concourse.

The whole process made me wonder how many $15 general admission tickets they sell over the 5,500 capacity. The ticket states it does not guarantee you a seat, but

selling, let’s say, 7,000 tickets seems unethical.

(If anyone knows any real general admission sales numbers, I’d be very curious to ask a couple of questions.)

Outside of this complaint, the College World Series is a fantastic event to attend. The atmosphere is one that Major League Baseball should take notes on. Beach balls flying around the outfield bleachers is entertaining to younger children and adults.

OK, some adults.

My favorite part of the games was when the fans in the left field bleachers started chanting at the right field bleachers, “right field sucks!”

I’m still not sure what exactly prompted this heated exchange between two sides seperated by nothing except the beach ball graveyard, the opening in center field where staffers toss beach balls that have made there way onto the field.

College fight songs after a run scored keeps the team’s fans active and adds to the overall atmosphere.

So, take in the biggest event these “amatuers” will play while still “in school.” By the time they get to Omaha, a number of them will have been drafted and playing for their school for the final time.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t say this one more time. If you want to guarantee yourself a seat, don’t buy general admission or else get to the park early.

Google fined a record 2.4 billion Cochran birthday open euros in EU antitrust case house planned After a seven-year legal battle, European authorities came down hard on Google on Tuesday for taking advantage of its dominance in online searches to direct customers to its own businesses, fining the tech giant a record 2.42 billion euros ($2.72 billion) and raising the prospect of more.

A years-long analysis of Google’s online search results showed that the company lists links to its own online shopping services above those of rivals, European regulators said. On average, Google lists search results to its biggest rivals in online shopping only on page 4 _ and smaller rivals even lower. That’s a huge advantage for Google when 90 percent of use-clicks are on page one.

The ruling that Google is taking advantage of its market dominance in online searches paves the way for a broader crackdown by the EU, which is investigating several other Google businesses, like its online images and travel businesses.

“What Google has done is illegal under EU antitrust rules.

It denied other companies the chance to compete on the merits and to innovate. And most importantly, it denied European consumers a genuine choice of services and the full benefits of innovation,” EU Competi-

tion Commissioner Margrethe Vestager told reporters.

To avoid more pain in Europe, Google will have to change the way it does business in the region. It has 90 days to stop favoring its own links to online shopping or face more fines of up to 5 percent of the average daily worldwide revenue of parent company Alphabet.

Google says it is considering an appeal and maintains it’s just trying to package its search results in a way that makes it easier for consumers to find what they want.

The fine is the highest ever imposed in Europe for anti-competitive behavior, exceeding a 1.06 billion euros penalty on Silicon Valley chip maker Intel in 2009.

The penalty itself is unlikely to leave a dent in Google’s finances. Alphabet has more than $92 billion (82 billion euros) in cash, including nearly $56 billion (50 billion euros) in accounts outside of Europe.

But it could affect Google’s way of doing business in the longer-term. U.S. interest groups were quick to latch onto the European ruling to argue that a similar approach be taken in the United States.

“We will monitor Google’s compliance closely,” Vestager said.

Supreme Court playground ruling feeds school voucher debate Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and other proponents of school voucher programs are praising a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that said a Lutheran church was wrongly denied a state grant for its preschool playground. But opponents say the ruling is far from an endorsement of the use of public money for religious schools.

The court, by a 7-2 vote, sided with Trinity Lutheran Church of Columbia, Missouri, which had sought a state grant to put a soft surface on its preschool playground.

“We should all celebrate the fact that programs designed to help students will no longer be discriminated against by the government based solely on religious affiliation,” DeVos said after the justices ruled Monday that Missouri violated the First Amendment in denying the grant.

The Columbia, Missouri, church had sought the grant under a state program that reimburses nonprofit organizations that install playground surfaces made from recycled tires. The Department of Natural Resources rejected the application because the state constitution prohibits the use of public money “in aid of any church, sect or denomination of religion.”

The church’s challenge was watched by both sides of the debate over whether states can let parents choose to send their children to religious schools through publicly funded programs.

Teachers unions, which oppose vouchers as diverting money from public schools, said the narrow ruling dealt a setback to voucher proponents by leaving intact the

state’s constitutional provision that prohibits state funding of religious actions.

American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten pointed to a footnote by Chief Justice John Roberts that said the court did not address “religious uses of funding.”

But the pro-school choice Center for Education Reform said that even without reviewing the constitutionality of Missouri’s prohibition on the use of state funds at religious schools, the justices had bolstered the choice movement by condemning the denial of a public benefit to an otherwise eligible recipient solely on the basis of its religious identity.

The Orthodox Jewish group Agudath Israel of America said the ruling could provide support for the argument that it would be discriminatory to not allow publicly funded tuition vouchers to be used for schooling at a religious institution.

“That puts somewhat of an onus on the state to make sure that if we’re going to have a program and we’re saying that it’s open to everyone, it’s intended to serve all the kids in our state, then it should be a program ... that includes kids that go to private and religious schools,” said the group’s Washington director, Rabbi Abba Cohen.

Richard Katskee, the legal director at the organization Americans United for Separation of Church and State, said that while the ruling does not strike down existing constitutional provisions against governments funding religion, “it probably will encourage more legal challenges over those provisions.

In a frank and heartfelt speech, U2 bassist Adam Clayton thanked his bandmates of four decades for their support during his treatment and recovery for alcohol abuse years ago, and then joined them for a rollicking rendition of a few hits.

Clayton was introduced

by British record producer Chris Blackwell as someone who “lived through addiction and came out the other side, and has been courageous enough to admit it.”

Taking the stage, the bassist quipped: “I’m not used to achieving anything on my own.”

Turning serious, he said: “I’m an alcoholic, addict, but in some ways that devastating disease is what drove me towards this wonderful life I now have. It’s just that I couldn’t take my friend alcohol. At some point I had to leave it behind and claim my full potential.”

It was Eric Clapton, he said, who finally told him he needed help.

ed to change my life and that I wouldn’t regret it,” Clayton said. He credited another friend, The Who’s Pete Townshend, for visiting him in rehab, where he “put steel on my back.”

As for his bandmates, Clayton said, “I was lucky because I had three friends who could see what was going on and who loved me enough to take up the slack of my failing. Bono, The Edge, and Larry (Mullen) truly supported me before and after I entered recovery, and I am unreservedly grateful for their friendship, understanding and support.”

Clayton received the Stevie Ray Vaughan Award for his support of the MusiCares MAP Fund, which offers musicians access to addiction recovery treatment.

Arriving at the theater earlier, he told reporters the fund was especially important given the current epidemic of opioid addiction.

“MusiCares ... really provides funding for a lot of people to look into those things and find help,” he said.

National Digest

Florida wins OMAHA, Neb. – There are no secrets in these College World Series finals.

Before LSU and Florida squared off at TD Ameritrade Park to settle the SEC championship – they shared the regular-season title – Paul Mainieri, 11th-year coach of the Tigers, said of Kevin O’Sullivan, the Gators’ 10th-year coach, “He’ll be the first to know as soon as I decide” on a starting pitcher for the opening game Monday of the CWS championship series.

LSU and Florida know each other so well, no point exists in trying to hide anything. After all, such a ploy – as a few Tigers perceived it, anyway – on Saturday by Oregon State in announcing one pitcher and starting another, served only to anger LSU players.

So let it all hang out.

And both teams did just that Monday night in the Gators’ 4-3 victory in Game 1 of the best-ofthree series for the national title.

Florida sits one victory from its first championship in 11 visits to Omaha.

Serena response

Serena Williams fired back via Twitter on Monday after John McEnroe said that if she played on the men’s circuit, she’d be “like No. 700 in the world.”

Williams wrote on Twitter “Dear John, I adore and respect you but please please keep me out of your statements that are not factually based.”

She followed with “I’ve never played anyone ranked “there” nor do I have time. Respect me and my privacy as I’m trying to have a baby. Good day sir.”

In an interview Sunday, McEnroe told NPR that Williams has earned the designation as the greatest woman to play tennis, but he wouldn’t put her in the category of greatest to ever play tennis.

“That doesn’t mean I don’t think Serena is an incredible player. I do, but the reality of what would happen on a given day is Serena could beat some players, I believe, because she is so incredibly strong mentally,” McEnroe said.

“But if she had to just play the circuit – the men’s circuit – that would be an entirely different story.”

Panthers run into blue buzzsaw n Creston

baseball gets just one hit in road loss

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports editor kacarter@crestonnews.com

ST. MARYS — Creston only gave up one run after the first inning of its baseball game against Martensdale-St. Marys Monday.

However, the Panthers’ hosts got all that they needed in the way of offense in a seven-run first inning on their way to an 8-0 victory.

Jaden Driskell started the game for the Panthers on the hill and narrowly missed the strike zone with several pitches just below the knees, which made throwing more balls over the heart of the plate to avoid walks a necessity.

Driskell walked Blue Devil leadoff hitter Trevor Dooley and then allowed sharp singles by Kevin Duncan and Brady Gavin to load the bases with no outs.

Bret Barnett made Creston pay as he ripped a hard line shot over the fence in left for a grand slam and a 4-0 lead before a Panther out was recorded.

After another single, Driskell was pulled in favor of fellow senior Brenden McDowell.

A year of growth and accomplishment Creston/O-M tennis celebrates season

“You look at the ceiling … there is none. You can go as high as you want the next three years.”

Those were the words of Creston/Orient-Macksburg head tennis coach Kevin Cooper at Sunday’s team banquet.

The sentiment was directed at the young and still relatively inexperienced girls team, but stood for everyone in attendance.

Of the 30 players who played tennis this past spring, about 15 showed up for the banquet and Cooper passed down his thanks, and congratulations to go along with several awards.

The Panther girls squad,

a year removed from a team trip to tennis and second-place overall finish, showcased an entirely new varsity roster this spring.

“I came into this thinking we were going to win some meets and I also knew that it would be a great experience for some of the kids that haven’t gotten to play varsity the last couple years.

Whether it be on the girls side or the boys side,” Cooper said.

The team, which went 3-7, featured nothing but players with little varsity experience.

Creston/O-M’s girls won duals against Atlantic, Audubon and Chariton.

Still, after playing a challenging Hawkeye 10 and nonconference schedule against difficult competition, Cooper felt optimistic about the chances for the girls team to succeed in 2018.

The same went for the boys, who went 5-4 and won

duals against Southwest Valley, Clarinda, Audubon, Red Oak and Chariton. The boys took second at districts abd lost to Clarke at substate.

Three players with varsity letters returned for the Panthers this spring, while the duo of Jacob Cook and Jaden Driskell continued a run of boys success for the program.

“For those guys to go as juniors, it’s a great accomplishment for them to go as juniors,” Cooper said.

“We’ve only had a couple kids go as juniors and for them to experience that, Cooper once you get up there, it’s the real deal.”

Seeing his teams compete in Cedar Falls further solidifies the need in Cooper’s

mind to continue to schedule difficult competition to prepare the Panthers.

“The one thing that I noticed when we were at state tennis was I kind of looked around and the boys, kids that were on the courts from other towns, there was like six teams we played (during the regular season),” Cooper said. “Boone was on the court, North Polk, Atlantic, Ballard. We try to get the schedule as hard as we can so that the kids are used to that level of competition by the time they get to Cedar Falls.”

Cooper thanked the administration, parents and fans, the other coaches on this past year’s staff and local media.

Always with an eye forward, Cooper noted that 81 kids participated in junior tennis camp several weeks ago, and that the future looks bright for the program.

“I’ve had kids that showed

up as ninth-graders and two years later they’re at the state tournament,” Cooper said.

“Hopefully next year we get a group of kids up there.”

Accolades Letterwinners — Seniors — Triston Davidson 4, Mattie Wheeler 1, Madison Callahan 1, Olivia Hartman 1, Leah Stow 1. Juniors — Jacob Cook 3, Jaden Driskell 3, Dustin Merritt 3, Ethan Anderson 1, Emilien Florentin 1, Sara Williamson 1.

Girls team had above a 3.25 grade point average as a team.

NBA awards On a night that was capped by Russell Westbrook winning MVP, the Houston Rockets and Milwaukee Bucks made their presence felt during the first NBA awards show.

Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon beat out the Philadelphia 76ers duo of Joel Embiid and Dario Saric to win Rookie of the Year, while the Rockets’ Mike D’Antoni won the Coach of the Year award.

Brogdon – taken with the 36th overall pick in the second round of last year’s draft – became the only non-first-round winner of the award in the common draft era (since 1966), according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Burton Agrees To Join Minnesota Timberwolves

AREA BASEBALL ROUNDUP

Bulldogs keep rolling

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State’s Deonte Burton has agreed to join the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to Edge Sports International, the agency representing the former Cyclone.

The Milwaukee, Wisconsin native had a breakout season in 2016-17, averaging 15.1 points per game in his only full season as a Cyclone. He led Iowa State pulling down 6.2 rebounds per game and posted 60 steals and 49 blocks, becoming just the second player in school history to record a 40-40 season.

An All-Big 12 second-team pick as a senior, Burton was at his best against the best competition.

He scored 29 points against national runner-up Gonzaga and in Iowa State’s upset win at Allen Fieldhouse. In the NCAA Tournament against Purdue, Burton tallied a gamehigh 25 points.

He posted a career-high 31 points as Iowa State won Burton a double-overtime affair at Oklahoma.

A 1,000-point scorer in college, Burton was the 2016 Big 12 Newcomer of the Year.

the hot corner.

McDowell allowed three more runs, only one of them earned.

“We’re not the kind of team that can run it by people,” Creston coach Steve Birchard said about his squad’s pitching.

“Vice-versa, you can’t win ballgames with one hit.”

Kolton Fisk drove in the fifth run with a long double to deep center that Creston center fielder Michael Scherer almost hauled in.

More runs scored on a Matt Holt single a fielder’s choice groundout by Duncan.

“Tonight was really the first game I feel like we’ve played consistently. Hit the ball consistently onethrough-nine,” Martensdale-St. Marys coach Jon Fitzpatrick said.

Duncan, the Blue Devils’ pitcher, won his fifth game of the year, alongside one loss, with a 10-strikeout, one walk, one hit-batter, one-hitter as Martensdale-St. Marys won its 18th consecutive game of the season. Duncan threw only 89 pitches to get through the complete game.

Creston’s lone hit came on a routine grounder to second base that the Panthers’ Eli Loudon barely sprinted out to beat the throw.

“The kid (Duncan) was decent and we’ve been hitting that kind of pitching so I was disappointed

Creston senior first baseman Kadon Hulett tosses the ball to first base where freshman second baseman Luke Latham is covering to get the second out of the first inning. The Blue Devils scored their seventh run of the first inning on the play on the groundout by Kevin Duncan. Along with the RBI, Duncan threw a complete game one-hitter to give Martensdale-St. Marys the win. Junior third baseman Jaden Driskell looks on from third base.

in that tonight,” Birchard said. “Maybe we looked at a couple that we shouldn’t have as far as taking pitches but you know, you’ve got to learn from it.”

Luke Latham with a walk in the fifth inning and Dustin Merritt being hit with a pitch in the seventh were the other two Panthers to reach base.

The Blue Devils, the state’s third-ranked team in Class 1A, has yet to have a POI opponent finish a game within two runs of them.

“That’s always one of

our goals every single year is to win the Pride of Iowa,” Fitzpatrick said.

“We have a two-game lead on everybody right now, but we want to win it out.

We want to go undefeated.”

Creston lost its sixth game over its last seven.

The bright spot for the Panthers Monday came in the form of pitcher Jack Frey. Despite having several balls hit hard off of him, he yielded just two hits in three innings of work and struck out a batter.

Frey threw consistent

strikes, something the Panthers have been able to rely on with the young hurler.

“That’s the way Jack operates. He just is able to throw strikes and get the outs. Let the defense work.

He gets ahead,” Birchard said. “There’s a difference between a guy hitting while he’s ahead and guy hitting even or getting behind. They don’t get a good swing on the ball. I think that was the difference between Jaden and Jack tonight. Jack was working with a lot of strikes and Jaden was behind.”

Continued demonstrations of strike throwing consistency has earned Frey his coaches’ praise and attention.

“I like what we’re seeing out of Jack and we’re going to use him more and more.”

UP NEXT — Creston (9-15 overall, 6-10 in the Hawkeye 10), plays host to Red Oak today (Tuesday).

The Panthers defeated Red oak (4-15, 3-12) ) 12-5 on June 12 at Red Oak. “They’ll come and play,” Birchard said. “I told the guys after the game tonight

2017 Adams County Speedway

G N I C RA Update

Kevin Harvick posts dominant win at Sonoma to earn 1st win of season SONOMA, Calif. – Kevin Harvick led a 1-2-3 podium sweep for Ford while proving that veteran experience still counts for something in NASCAR. Harvick returned to victory lane for the first time this season with a dominant run Sunday on the road course at Sonoma Raceway. The former NASCAR champion came to Sonoma winless in 20 races since Kansas last fall and has been overshadowed in this season of NASCAR’s new young superstars.

But at a track where experience and ability can separate the field, Harvick and a bunch of veterans led the way. It was the first win on the winding wine country road course in 17 tries for the Bakersfield, California, driver.

Sonoma was one of just four active tracks where Harvick had never scored a Cup victory. He did, however, win the K&N Series race Saturday at Sonoma, and it might have given him some inside knowledge.

“It kept me from sitting around and trying to find something to do on Saturday,” Harvick said. “I think that was the biggest

thing. I’m sitting around, and there’s guys out here making laps and learning things, and I think that’s the most important thing is to never take for granted that you have to try to expand your knowledge and keep an open mind to making things better.

“To finally check this one off the list ... being so close to home and having raced here so much, this was one Harvick that was on the top of the list.”

Harvick was on cruise control and conserving fuel in the race that ended under caution after Kasey Kahne had a hard accident on the final lap. Either way, Harvick had a cozy, nine-second lead over Stewart-Haas Racing teammate Clint Bowyer before the caution.

Bowyer, now the driver for the entry Tony Stewart used for his final NASCAR victory last year at the track, was second and Brad Keselowski third as Ford cars went 1-2-3.

For Harvick, it was the first victory since Stewart-Haas Racing switched to Ford this season. Harvick had spent 16 years in a Chevrolet.

It was Ford’s seventh victory of the season. Ford won eight Cup races last season, and seven came exclusively from Team Penske drivers. This year, the manufacturer has wins from Penske, Roush-Fenway Racing, The Wood Brothers and SHR. “I had mixed emotions about how the year was going to go just because of the fact that we had a lot on our plate to switch over,” Harvick said. “It’s just a big undertaking, and one day I think when we get done with this year, I think everybody will actually learn all the details of all the things that it took to get to this particular point. It’s a huge undertaking, and I think it says a lot about our people at Stewart-Haas Racing.”

Martin Truex Jr. led 25 laps but suffered an engine failure and finished 37th.

Truex won the first stage of the race, his series-leading 11th stage victory. Jimmie Johnson won the second

You obviously don’t know what he’s doing, either.”

BOWYER’S BIG DAY: He couldn’t catch teammate Harvick for the win, but Bowyer still finished a season-best second. He was content with that and knows how hard his new SHR team is working.

He also understood that Harvick was eventually going to get a win.

“Let’s face it: You’re not going to keep that team that’s won a championship, won all these races in the last five years, you’re not going to keep them out of winning,” Bowyer said.

Kyle Larson and Jamie McMurray started on the pole for Chip Ganassi Racing and hoped to give the owner a sweep of Sunday after Scott Dixon won the IndyCar race at Road America in Wisconsin. But Larson, the points leader, was never a factor and finished 26th. McMurray was 10th.

Most of the top 10 was comprised of veterans. Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch were fourth and fifth in Toyota, while Dale Earnhardt Jr. was sixth and the highest-finishing Chevrolet.

Daytona 500 winner Kurt Busch was seventh.

Day became the first Israeli driver to start a race at NASCAR’s highest level.

He finished 32nd out of 40.

The 25-year-old from Tel Aviv as named Israel’s 2016 “Athlete of the Year.’’

Day won the NASCAR Whelen Euro race on June 11 at Brands Hatch in England. He was planning to return to Israel after that race, then got the call to race at Sonoma.

UP NEXT: Saturday night’s race at Daytona International Speedway, which will be billed as the potential last stop at the Florida track for retiring driver Earnhardt Jr. But Earnhardt stressed at Sonoma that he is retiring only from “full-time’’ competition, and he did not close the door on running there again, specifically the Daytona 500.

HINTS FROM HELOISE Dealer decision

HOROSCOPE For Wednesday, June 28, 2017 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be gentle during family discussions today, because you might come on too strong. By nature, you are a feisty, fiery sign!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You are clear-thinking today, which is why you will go after what you want. During discussions with others, you will say what you mean and mean what you say.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is a strong day for financial discussions, because you are confident and clear-thinking. Not only do you know what you want, you also will go after it!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Today both Mercury and Mars are lined up in your sign, which gives you increased mental energy. However, you might take yourself too seriously.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is a fabulous day for research of any kind, because you won’t stop until you find what you’re looking for. You’ll be like a dog with a bone.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Discussions with friends and groups will be lively and memorable today! You have the power to sway others if you want them to do what you want.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) During your interactions with bosses and parents today, you will come on strong - and they will be forceful as well. This is good, but make sure you don’t say something you regret later.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)You will love to study any subject today, but you’ll especially enjoy philosophy, politics, astrology, metaphysics or geography. Your mind is hungry to learn.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is an interesting day for discussions about inheritances and shared property, because you will defend your best interests easily. Your challenge will be to see the other person’s point of view.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a lively, unpredictable day! You might not expect someone else to come on so strong - but you’ll have a ready reply if this happens.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You can accomplish a lot at work today. Your challenge will be to refrain from being overbearing or coming on too

strong with others.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a strong day for those of you involved in competitive sports or the arts. Be gentle in your exchanges, especially with kids. (You’re the adult.)

YOU BORN TODAY People are attracted to you because you are creative and entertaining. You also are goal-oriented. This is a powerful year for you. Whatever

you have done in the past will now come to fruition. This is a year of big decisions and major achievements. Activity is key; you will be involved and busy.

Opportunities for advancement and recognition for your work will happen.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Heloise: I recently bought a NEW CAR. Do I have to take it to the dealer for service? They seem a lot more expensive. – Mary D. in Pennsylvania Mary, going to the dealership for routine maintenance may seem like it’s taking a bigger slice out of your budget, but consider the following hints: * Service technicians who work at the dealership are specially trained to work on your make and model of car. * After spending a pretty penny on a new car, truck or SUV, it doesn’t make sense to go low on the maintenance. * Being a regular customer in the service department may bode in your favor when you eventually replace your vehicle.

There are steps you can take as a consumer. Carefully read your owners manual.

Sometimes the service department will “recommend” changing out certain fluids that the manual may not.

Educate yourself on what is necessary for your style of driving. If you don’t drive the vehicle a lot or under harsh conditions, you may not need these extra services.

The manual is your best source for maintenance recommendations – the manual,

and your service adviser at the dealership. – Heloise APOLOGY IS BETTER Dear Heloise: I’ve learned in business that when I’m not able to provide a good or service for my customer, to say, “I apologize.” Saying “I’m sorry” is too personal to me.

Of course I’m going to do everything I can to provide for my customers, but sometimes it is just not possible.

Replacing the intimate phrase “I’m sorry” works for me. – A Reader in Florida I understand! Readers, what hints would you like to share about doing business professionally? – Heloise LAUNDRY RETRIEVAL Dear Heloise: I’m just 5 feet tall. The drum on my washing machine is very deep – I can’t reach small items on the bottom when transferring to the dryer.

I keep a plastic spaghetti fork hanging next to my washer. The plastic doesn’t scratch the drum, and the fork grabs the smallest items.

It’s a great helper. – Linda S., Carmichael, Calif.

CALENDAR CONUNDRUM Dear Heloise: I rely on a wall calendar for my work.

The photography in the calendar is so beautiful that I

SUDOKU

want to save the calendars each year. I write appointments in the squares, but I started writing the appointments on sticky notes and taping them to the squares so I can remove them later.

But I was thinking, maybe I should permanently record my appointments so I can look back at all that I’ve accomplished through the year!

HA! I’m torn! – Gloria S. in New York USE A NAPKIN Dear Heloise: I use cheap paper napkins for little spills/ wipe-ups. Much less expensive than paper towels, which I use for bigger jobs. – Ruth M., via email FLORAL TUBE Dear Heloise: The “aqua tube” florists use when delivering flowers has other uses.

It can be used to store toothpicks, beads, craft buttons and many other things. Don’t just throw it away next time.

– Yu-Chih M., via email Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or email it to Heloise(at)Heloise.com. I can’t answer your letter personally but will use the best hints received in my column. (c)2017 by King Features Syndicate Inc.

Easy steps to becoming a Red Cross summer blood donor The American Red Cross urges eligible donors to give blood this summer for hospital patients in need and offers three easy steps people can take to help save lives.

Schedule – Use the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit www.redcrossblood.org or call 800-RED CROSS (800-733-2767) to make an appointment.

Prepare – Get a good night’s sleep, eat a nutritious meal and drink extra fluids.

Give – The donation process start to finish takes about an hour. The actual donation only takes about 10 minutes.

Only about 3 percent of the U.S. population gives blood, which means a heavy reliance on repeat donors to maintain a sufficient blood supply. New blood donors are especially needed during the summer months because many schools where blood drives are held – and where new donors give – are not in session, and current do-

nors often delay giving due to summer vacations.

Every day there are thousands of patients who rely on lifesaving blood donations. That’s why donors are urged to give now and give often.

In June, the Red Cross joins blood collection agencies around the world marking World Blood Donor Day by raising awareness about the need for a readily available blood supply. Donors can make an even greater impact by inviting others to join them in giving.

Upcoming blood donation opportunities: From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

June 27 at Creston SWCC Instructional Building, 1501 W. Townline St., in Creston From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

June 28 at First Presbyterian Church, 907 Grove Ave., in Corning

How to help Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit

www.redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age, weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Blood donors can now save time at their next donation by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online on the day of their donation, prior to arriving at the blood drive. To get started and learn more, visit www.redcrossblood. org/RapidPass and follow the instructions on the site.

Judges will score entries using the theme.

The assembly area for parade entries is Creston Livestock Auction. All entries must be there and in place by 9:30 a.m. Judging begins prior to the start of the parade.

This year’s theme is “A

hometown Fourth of July.”

The talent show, which takes place in McKinley Park, features divisions for 7 and under, 8-10, 11-13, 14-16 and 17 and older.

Creston Bucks will be presented to the top three placewinners in each age division.

There will be one song or performance per contestant.

If there is a group, the age of the oldest participant will dictate what age division the group is placed in.

A piano could not be secured for the contest, but there will be an electronic keyboard available.

Free family events to help promote new youth centers Freedom for Youth Ministries, a local Christian non-profit serving youth with after-school programs and more, will be hosting “Freedom Quest” from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 29, at McKinley Park. Freedom Quest is a free family event with bounce houses, carnival games, prizes, food and music. The evening also includes the life-changing message of Jesus shared through skits and Bible lessons. There will be a second event hosted later in the summer on Thursday, Aug. 3, at the same time and venue.

Freedom for Youth Ministries launches youth centers throughout the state of Iowa, and the ministry is gearing up to start a center in Creston.

“We want to provide a safe place where youth can come and discover their gifts and talents and grow in the areas of faith, education, employment and leadership,” said South Central Regional Manager Christina Nichols.

Freedom Quest is a traveling ministry event scheduled to be in Chariton, Albia, Creston, Greenfield, Mar-

shalltown, Newton, Boone and Jefferson twice this summer.

“We hope these Freedom Quest events will help us build relationships in the community and inspire the community to continue reaching out to youth in their own backyards,” Nichols said.

Founded in Des Moines in 2003, the organization is a statewide nonprofit on a mission to reach Iowa’s youth with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The organization’s home office resides at their six-acre campus on Hickman Road. With the help of hundreds of volunteers, they serve 600-plus people, kin-

dergarten through 22-yearsold, with free programs that help them stay in school, learn life skills, prepare for the workplace and develop healthy relationships. Programs include after-school activities, tutoring, skills classes and dinner and job training for high-school youth and young adults, all centered on the message of Jesus Christ’s saving grace.

In early June 2017, Freedom Blend Coffee, an enterprise of the ministry, will expand into a retail coffee shop that will serve as an employment training center for highschool students and young adults. To learn more, visit www.freedomforyouth.org.
