CATSKILL — A Greene County man is facing federal charges after he allegedly abused a young girl sexually to make child pornography, according to court documents.

Ronald Horton, 21, of Catskill, was charged Wednesday by the U.S. Attorney’s Office with sexual exploitation of a child, under the U.S. Code. The investigation was carried out by special agents with the Department of Homeland Security Investigations.

Horton took photographs

and made videos and saved them on his computer, according to court papers.

Horton was arrested after his home on Route 32 in Catskill was raided Wednesday by Homeland Security, state police and local police.

Horton was arraigned in U.S. District Court in Schenectady on Wednesday. Horton and the alleged victim knew each other, according to federal investigators. Columbia-Greene Media does not identify alleged victims of sex crimes.

Federal investigators received a cyber tip on April 1 that

Horton had images and videos saved on his micro-blogging and social networking website Tumblr and iCloud accounts, according to court records Horton allegedly used a girl under age five to perform sexually explicit acts and record them in photos and videos.

Horton waived his Miranda rights before admitting his crimes to investigators when they questioned him about the photos and videos at the state police barracks in Catskill, according to court papers.

“During the course of the interview Horton identified the

victim depicted in the videos,” according to the court documents. “Horton further stated that he took the videos of the victim at an address in Schenectady, New York approximately one year ago, and he identified the room within the residence that the videos were produced.”

A gold ring was seized from Horton’s residence, which he admitted is the ring he wore in the video, according to court documents.

Police were able to identify Horton in the videos because of his distinctive thick gold rings he was seen wearing in several

photos posted to Facebook, according to court documents.

Horton will be provided a public defender. The U.S. Attorney’s Office requested that Horton not be released from federal custody because he is both a flight risk and a danger to the community. He is due back in court on Thursday for a detention hearing. He remains in federal custody pending the hearing.

CATSKILL — A year after opening its soundstage, Lumberyard Center for Film and Performing Arts booked its first production company to shoot scenes for a full-length movie.

REMcycle Productions,

a Catskills-based company focused on film, television and theatre projects, filmed select scenes from its upcoming horror movie “A Deadly Legend” at Lumberyard for two days last month.

Starring Lori Petty, Corbin Bernsen, Judd Hirsch and REMcycle founder Kris-

ten Anne Ferraro, the story takes place at a former summer camp. When a real estate developer begins to create his vision of turning the property into a housing community, the camp’s haunted past comes to light, leaving campers to fight

Police: Officers in shooting on active duty

By Sarah Trafton Columbia-Greene Media

TANNERSVILLE — Two troopers involved in the fatal shooting of a Greene County man remain on active duty, state police confirmed Wednesday.

The troopers, whose names were not released, have not been charged with any crime, and an investigation into the incident is continuing, according to state police.

Luke H. Patterson, 41, of Tannersville, died after an altercation with the officers on May 24 in Montgomery, Orange County, according to state police.

The troopers responded to a report of a disabled vehicle on Interstate 84 near Exit 5A on May 24, according to police.

“The abandoned vehicle

was a 2016 gray Toyota 4-Runner,” State Police BCI Captain Michael Drake said.

The forensic team is continuing its investigation of the vehicle for evidence, Drake said.

A second report came in regarding an individual walking along Interstate 84 West, according to police.

One of the troopers got out of his police cruiser and spoke to Patterson while the other

trooper drove the cruiser beside them, according to police.

“A preliminary investigation revealed the subject was not cooperative with troopers, and refused to comply with commands multiple times,” according to police. “When the subject made a movement to enter the troop car, one member fired his divisionissued firearm, striking the subject.”

No weapon was found,

according to the troop commander.

The troopers immediately called for assistance and treated Patterson at the scene, police said. Patterson was then taken to Orange Regional Medical Center where he died.

An autopsy was performed at 7 a.m. May 24 at the Orange County Medical Examiner’s Office, Drake said.

Tannersville Mayor Lee McGunnigle did not know Pat-

terson personally, he said, but the Patterson family played a key role in the revitalization of the village.

Patterson worked at Last Chance Tavern several years ago, tavern owner David Kashman said. Kashman is also a village trustee.

“The only thing I would add at this time is that he was active at the local yoga studio and was a great guy,” he said.

The state Attorney General’s office is investigating the shooting, according to a statement.

The Attorney General’s office declined to comment on the status of the investigation.

Anyone with information about Patterson or the events leading up to the shooting are asked to call Middletown State Police at 845-344-5300.

Lumberyard Executive and Artistic Director Adrienne Willis was excited to be a part of the film.

“We’re thrilled to share our new soundstage with REMcycle Productions and welcome a new industry to Catskill,” Willis said. “We chose Catskill because we wanted to partner with a town that we could grow with. These milestones are so rewarding because they really demonstrate the strides we’ve made in exposing more people to the region and supporting economic development in the town and village.”

Catskill Village President Vincent Seeley shared Willis’ enthusiasm.

“This presents a unique opportunity for Catskill and Greene County by exposing us to a new industry that can not only use our beautiful scenery and locations but also can tap into the growing technology

Trump routinely misstates how tariffs work, insisting they are absorbed by U.S. trading partners. Tariffs in fact are taxes paid by U.S. companies that bring in products, so those costs are borne by manufacturers, chemical producers and others. U.S. companies typically pass along at least some of those costs to consumers.

The Mexican tariffs could erase more than $41 billion in gross domestic product for the United States, according to the Perryman Group, along with $24.6 billion in income each year. Overall job losses could hit 406,000.

Mexico has long been one of the United States’ top trading partners, and it recently passed China to become the largest

- in part because of the U.S.China trade war. But Trump has seized on immigration as an intractable issue between the two countries. Data released this week by U.S. Customs and Border Protection showed a surge in the number of immigrants entering the United States across the Mexican border.

Last month, the agency apprehended 144,278 people - mostly families and children - trying to enter the United States. That is nearly triple the 51,862 reported in May of last year.

“Much is at stake for both nations,” Perryman said. “If Mexico retaliates and imposes tariffs on the U.S., or the tariffs go higher than 5%, the negative effects on the economy would be even greater.”

and artistic base,” Seeley said.

“We are looking forward to more of these projects.”

Lumberyard is the only qualified production facility in Greene County and features a state-of-the-art soundstage that offers a 12,000-squarefoot area for film and production companies, according to a statement from Lumberyard.

Companies that come to film in Greene County can receive tax credits through the Empire State Development’s New York State Film Tax Credit Program.

Program credits worth $420 million annually can be allocated and used to encourage companies to film in the state help to create and maintain film industry jobs, according to the Empire State Development website.

“The film and TV industry hires thousands of local workers and invests in communities throughout New York state each year, and this production will help advance the industry and economy in the Capital Region,” said Gigi Semone, executive director of the Governor’s Office of Motion Picture & Television Develop-

ment.

Since 2011, 2,090 applications have been filed with the state Film Tax Program, $25.3 billion has been spent on film production in the state and $1,486,826 new hires have been created by the industry.

The Greene County Economic Development, Tourism and Planning Department applied funding last year from Empire State Development to launch a marketing campaign called Film in Greene, in collaboration with Lumberyard.

The county’s website, greatnortherncatskills.com/film, allows production companies to file an application to film in Greene County and helps connect them with local casting agents, lodging, makeup artists, photographer and videographers and rental equipment.

“In the short time since Lumberyard opened, we’ve already seen a lot of new interest in filming in Greene County,” said Greene County Tourism Director Heather Bagshaw. “Now that we have a qualified production facility in Lumberyard — the first countywide — we expect to see Greene County’s

stock continue to rise as a premier destination for television and movie producers.”

Proceeds from rentals such as REMcycle allow Lumberyard to give back to the community through programs such as Lumberyard Young Performers, which provides free dance education for students living in low-income communities in and around Catskill; Fresh Start, an intervention program for incarcerated teens; and Junior Crew, which provides local high school students summer jobs and workforce development training from resume building to learning how to network.

Lumberyard is a non-profit center that provides residencies for performing artists to test and perfect their work.

The performances that Lumberyard hosts provides Hudson Valley audiences with an opportunity to see these works before they premiere in New York City. Lumberyard is also a venue for weddings and large events.

Stonewall Riot Apology: Police Actions Were ‘Wrong,’ Commissioner Admits Derek Norman and Michael Gold

Chicago 76/56 Denver 85/53

San Francisco 70/55

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump’s increasingly hawkish use of tariffs against China and Mexico could have drastic consequences for global trade and American jobs, according to a pair of new reports.

More than 400,000 U.S. jobs would disappear if Trump were to follow through on plans to activate escalating tariffs on $350 billion in Mexican imports next week, according to an analysis by the Perryman Group, a Texas-based economic consulting firm. That potential drop combined with existing levies against China has put global trade on course for its worst year since the 2009 financial crisis, according to Dutch bank ING. Its analysts forecast

that international trade will grow 0.2% in 2019, a steep falloff from the 3.3% recorded in 2018 and 4.8% in 2017.

Much of that slowdown would stem from Trump’s ongoing trade war with Beijing.

Last month, after negotiations broke down, Trump applied a 25% levy to $250 billion in Chinese goods and began the process of taxing all products from China, which quickly retaliated with tariffs of its own.

Weeks later, angry over migration, Trump threatened tariffs on $350 billion in Mexican goods. That levy is set to kick in Monday at 5% and rise incrementally to as much as 25%, unless, Trump says, Mexico cracks down on Central American migrants crossing into the United States along their shared

The New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — It was an apology that was half a century in the making.

New York City Police Commissioner James P. O’Neill apologized Thursday on behalf of the Police Department for the actions of officers during the Stonewall riot, a seminal 1969 clash outside a Greenwich Village club that is widely regarded as a turning point for the modern lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights movement.

The commissioner made his comments at police headquarters during a safety briefing related to World Pride month, an annual celebration of LGBTQ culture that is taking place in New York City this year, the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising.

“I think it would be irresponsible to go through World Pride month and not to speak of the events at the Stonewall Inn in June of 1969,” O’Neill said. “I do know what happened should not have happened.

“The actions taken by the NYPD were wrong, plain and simple.”

“The actions and the laws were discriminatory and oppressive, and for that, I apologize,” he added.

The auditorium erupted in applause.

“We have, and we do, embrace all New Yorkers,” he said.

The Stonewall uprising began after midnight June 28, 1969, when police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar on Christopher Street in Greenwich Village.

Police said they were there because the bar had violated liquor laws. But the Stonewall patrons, fed up with longstanding harassment at the hands of law enforcement, decided to push back.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people who were forced out of the bar that night taunted police. Some threw bottles and stones. Days of street protests followed, resulting in arrests, injuries and property damage.

On Wednesday, Corey Johnson, the City Council speaker who is gay, had suggested in a radio interview on 1010 WINS that it was time for the Police Department to apologize for its behavior.

“I think it would be an important step toward further healing and reconciliation, and recognizing what happened in that crucial moment,” Johnson said.

On Thursday, Johnson thanked the commissioner for his words.

“This is so wonderful to hear during Pride,” he said.

O’Neill’s comments marked a remarkable mo-

ment in the city’s history, a long-awaited acknowledgment of the Police Department’s role in harassing gays in past decades. In the 1960s, it was common for the police to raid gay bars, arrest crossdressers and harass customers, often on the pretext of cracking down on prostitution or other organized crime activities.

The clash began at the Stonewall Inn after eight officers and an inspector arrived at the club and ordered about 200 people to line up and show their identification.

Some were asked to submit to anatomical inspections.

A crowd gathered outside, shouting “gay power.”

LGBTQ rights activists have pushed the Police Department to issue an apology in the past, but officials had declined to do so.

In 2016, at a news conference discussing security for that year’s Pride March, William J. Bratton, the commissioner at the time, said he did not believe an apology was necessary.

“There is no denying that out of that terrible experience came so much good — that it was the tipping point, if you will,” Bratton told reporters. “So I think we should all celebrate that out of that terrible experience, a lot of good came.”

The following year, a day after the Pride March, O’Neill also declined to apologize.

“I think that’s been addressed already,” he said.

“We’re moving forward.”

NYS Smokers’ Quitline hosts combination therapy webinar BUFFALO — The New York State Smokers’ Quitline (Quitline) invites all healthcare professionals to attend a free one-hour webinar at 11 a.m. June 11, titled “Exploring Combination Therapy for Smoking Cessation: A Provider and Quitline Intervention.” Registration is available at www.nysmokefree.com/NewsRoom.

Members of the Quitline’s Marketing and Outreach Team, together with Dr. Daniel Croft of the Quitline’s Physician Task Force and the University of Rochester Medical Center’s Pulmonary and Critical Care Department, will discuss the benefits and possible side

effects of using a nicotine patch with a nicotine gum or lozenge to become tobaccofree.

The webinar will include a mock call to the Quitline and time for questions at the end. One continuing medical education (CME) credit will be available for attendees upon successful completion of a short quiz and evaluation. The webinar will be recorded and hosted online for future listening and for earning CME credit.

The Quitline regularly provides combination therapy in its starter kits for tobacco users.

Numerous research studies show that combination therapy can be two to three times as effective in the quest to become tobaccofree, compared to using just one form of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT).

During the webinar, Dr. Croft also will briefly review all seven types of FDA-approved NRT products.

OUR VIEW

The seed of a good idea All efforts to pause the construction of a new Greene County jail were unsuccessful, although two downstate assemblymen are trying to clarify and amend a law on sharing a jail with another county. If the law is amended before the jail groundbreaking later this month, this story might take yet another astonishing twist.

Until then, we can take a look at an interesting development involving the former Greene County Jail. A group led by Cassidy Bua, of Catskill, is interested in buying the old jail and property. It’s too early to talk money and the plan is in its infancy, Bua warned, but there is cause for optimism. After months of fighting tooth and nail to stop a new jail, some people want to salvage something good from the old one.

But the transaction might take some time to complete, if it does. Deputy Greene Coun-

ty Administrator Warren Hart said Wednesday the property is not for sale, and the final word on what happens to the building and property belongs to the county Legislature.

One of the group’s ideas is to convert the old jail into a criminal justice museum, Bua said. The museum would contain a research center and offer vocational training.

This is the seed of a good idea. Now, all it needs to blossom is money, a solid plan and hard work to convince the county Legislature. That will be a tall order, since lawmakers seem determined to transform the property into a parking lot.

Gazing into the future, a museum would fit into Catskill’s improving quality of life, and a corridor that already has Lumberyard and the Bridge Street Theatre. It’s just an idea today, but there is nothing wrong with having a dream.

ANOTHER VIEW

Press freedom is under siege and the U.S. is part of the problem

By Jennifer Rubin (c) 2019,The Washington Post ·

Freedom House is out with its annual press freedom report. The portrait is grim: “According to Freedom House’s Freedom in the World data, media freedom has been deteriorating around the world over the past decade, with new forms of repression taking hold in open societies and authoritarian states alike. The trend is most acute in Europe, previously a bastion of well-established freedoms, and in Eurasia and the Middle East, where many of the world’s worst dictatorships are concentrated.”

The report explains that press freedom is critical to democracy and if “democratic powers cease to support media independence at home and impose no consequences for its restriction abroad, the free press corps could be in danger of virtual extinction.” And the result will be loss of civil liberties and democratic government itself.

One reason the report is so alarming is that it seems so familiar. “The problem has arisen in tandem with right-wing populism, which has undermined basic freedoms in many democratic countries,” says the report from Freedom House, a watchdog that conducts research and advocacy on democracy, political freedom, and human rights. “Populist leaders present themselves as the defenders of an aggrieved majority against liberal elites and ethnic minorities whose loyalties they question, and argue that the interests of the nation — as they define it — should override democratic principles like press freedom, transparency, and open debate.”

When you look at Hungary and Austria you can appreciate how disturbingly similar the United States’ situation is at present.

These regimes cultivate pro-government media, which act as propaganda outlets for the elected leader, reinforcing his falsehoods and demonizing opponents. Actual independent outlets are considered “elites” who fail to represent the will of the masses, which only the leader can channel. Concentrate power, demonize the real press and cultivate state press: “Common methods include government-backed ownership changes, regulatory and financial pressure, and public denunciations of honest journalists. Governments have also offered proactive support to friendly outlets through measures such as lucrative state contracts, favorable regulatory decisions, and preferential access to state

information. The goal is to make the press serve those in power rather than the public.”

Sound familiar? “ Although key news organizations remain strong and continue to produce vigorous reporting on those in office, President Donald Trump’s continual vilification of the press has seriously exacerbated an ongoing erosion of public confidence in the mainstream media,” Freedom House bluntly explains.

“Among other steps, the president has repeatedly threatened to strengthen libel laws, revoke the licenses of certain broadcasters, and damage media owners’ other business interests.”

The threat in the United States shouldn’t be exaggerated, but Trump’s effect outside America is cause for real concern. (“The US constitution provides robust protections against such actions, but President Trump’s public stance on press freedom has had a tangible impact on the global landscape.

Journalists around the world now have less reason to believe that Washington will come to their aid if their basic rights are violated.”)

Freedom House’s recommendations seem self-evident - condemn violations of press freedom, make press freedom a factor in diplomatic relations with illiberal regimes and educate the public about the importance of a free press. (“Stand up publicly for the value of a free press, and support civic education that will inform the next generation. Press freedom is one of the most fundamental pillars of American democracy, and constitutional protections in the United States are stronger than in any other country in the world.”)

With every president prior to the current one, we could count on the United States to be a bold defender of free speech, not a cheerleader for repression or an excuse-maker for violence against reporters (as Trump has been with the Saudis’ murder of Washington Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi).

In that respect the most positive step toward reversing a decline in press freedom would be throwing out the current president, by impeachment or at the ballot box. So long as Trump threatens retaliation against press critics and claims any negative story is “fake news,” a free press in the United States and abroad is at risk.

Seventy-five years ago, my Czech-born father was one of 73,000 U.S. troops who landed on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. It was four years after he had escaped Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia and eventually found safety in the United States. It was two years after he and his brother enlisted in the U.S. Army to fight, as many immigrants still do, for their adopted country. It was at the same time his family members who had not gotten out of Europe were being killed in concentration camps.

My dad never talked about fleeing the Nazis as a teenager. He never mentioned his Jewish heritage. He only rarely and reluctantly talked about serving in World War II. He never wore his medals of valor on his sleeve, literally or figuratively.

After he died 15 years ago at the age of 82, I discovered tucked away at the back of his sock drawer the three Bronze Stars he had earned for bravery and a Purple Heart. Then I started digging into his history and discovered that he had also hidden the pain and tragedies of his youth.

I found a birth certificate showing that the father I knew as John Heller had been born Hanus Heller and, like many immigrants, later anglicized his name in an effort to assimilate. I discovered that he had Jewish ancestry and was baptized Catholic in an unsuccessful bid to evade the Nazi racial laws. I pieced together the remarkable story of how he, his mother, brother and a cousin managed to get out of occupied Czechoslovakia.

My husband found records of how the rest of their immediate relatives had been killed in concentration camps - except

for twins whowere kept alive as subjects of the medical experiments led by Josef Mengele. I’m certain my dad had no idea that those two cousins had survived.

My dad was lucky. He was a statistical anomaly, having escaped the Nazis and then surviving one of the earliest waves of D-Day landings followed by fighting on the front lines in Normandy, the liberation of Paris, the Battle of the Bulge and the Battle of Hürtgen Forest. By early 1945, he was one of the very few left of those in his regiment who had come ashore on D-Day. The rest were dead or wounded and evacuated.

At that point, he had accumulated enough time on the front lines to go back to the United States. He studied electrical engineering at UCLA with the aid of the GI Bill, settled in southern California and eventually married.

His tale of fleeing repression, immigrating to the United States and establishing himself here is certainly not unique. Nor is his service as a foreign-born U.S. soldier.

In the 1840s,half of all U.S. military recruits were immigrants. Today, 40 percent of active-duty personnel are racial or ethnic minorities, and 13 percent of U.S. veterans are foreign-born or children of immigrants.

Why am I telling the story my dad had buried so deeply?

Because relaying his experience is a way to illustrate the personal ramifications of anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic, racist sentiment. Nationalist fervor, economic crisis and other factors resulted in the Nazis’ascendance, their anti-Jewish laws and eventually the war that upended my dad’s youth and took the lives of many of his compatriots, friends and family, both

on the battlefields and in the concentration camps.

He experienced what can happen when leaders spawn hatred rather than condemn it. He also experienced having a great leader when it really matters. In 2002, 58 years after my dad landed on Utah Beach, we persuaded him to return to Normandy for a memorial ceremony at the American cemetery there. He walked by himself among the gravestones of his compatriots from the 4th Infantry Division, and eventually stopped and stood for a long time at the marker of one of his commanders, Brig. Gen. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. Later we asked my dad why he spent the most time at Roosevelt’s grave, rather than at the resting places of his fellow infantrymen. He said Roosevelt was a great leader who lived by the regiment’s motto of “Deeds, not words.” In one of the few times my dad ever talked about combat, he showed us where he had landed on Utah Beach and described seeing the general standing calmly amid the indescribable chaos of battle and firmly directing the troops ashore. He said Roosevelt’s selfless, honorable leadership heartened him and, he presumed, thousands of other terrified young soldiers on that day.

They all were war heroes — the captured, the killed, the wounded, the mentally maimed, the lucky survivors like my dad — because of circumstance, not desire. They went to war because of what happened when xenophobia and demagoguery supplanted real leadership.

Heller is communications manager of the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington.

National Cathedral will open a new educational center, thanks to $22 million in donations Julie Zauzmer The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — When Randy Hollerith was a young priest, he used to try to get the tower bedroom, a special nook in an enchanting old Gothic building, whenever he went to a training program at the College of Preachers.

Now, the College of Preachers has been closed for nearly a decade, since the 2008 recession hit hard at Washington National Cathedral, which shares a campus with the charming stone building. The Gothic structure has fallen into disrepair inside.

Young Episcopal priests no longer come to the Cathedral for those training sessions.

And Hollerith, no longer such a young priest, is the dean of the cathedral - and has taken on the task of restoring the beloved building and creating a brand-new educational institution to live within its walls.

It will be called the Cathedral College of Faith and Culture, and it will convene retreats and seminars on subjects ranging from ethics in politics to liturgical art, along with the clergy training. Hollerith says it’s a place for the cathedral to influence discussion in Washington: “As we’ve seen from Notre Dame, [cathedrals] are places of great cultural meaning as well as religious meaning.”

The $22 million restoration of the 27,000-square-foot College of Preachers building, which has been stripped over the past two months down to its bare bones inside and will

be rebuilt to meet modern accessibility and environmental standards, is being funded by two major donations. Virginia Cretella Mars, who was married to one of the heirs of the Mars candy fortune, donated $17 million in conjunction with her four daughters. Andrew Florance, a businessman who founded the CoStar Group and is the chair of the Cathedral’s board, donated $5 million more.

Mars called the project “very exciting and needed at this particular time.” A longtime parishioner and volunteer at the cathedral, dating back to her time as a tour guide for fifth-grade school groups in the 1980s, Mars has previously funded other projects at the cathedral, including the restoration of a chapel and the installation of air conditioning. Hollerith asked her to fund the renovation of the College of Preachers building, and she agreed.

“Bringing people together to carry on civil conversations, meaningful conversations, from different points of view - to be able to understand, listen and contribute, at least open up the doors to understanding - at this point in time, I think the world is lacking a little bit of really, truly understanding each other and listening to each other,” she said. “From a Christian point of view, love your neighbor. And who is your neighbor? Everybody.”

Hollerith’s vision for the new “college” - which won’t offer degrees but will instead host attendees in the build-

He speaks of retreats for veterans struggling with the moral implications of their time at war; of gatherings for clergy from multiple faith traditions; of intensive conversations among leaders about racial and social justice issues.

He hopes to raise still more money to endow the new college, which will eventually employ staff to run these programs.

After suffering serious financial instability after the 2008 recession, Hollerith said, the cathedral - the seat of the Episcopal Church in the United States - is on firm footing again. He says the cathedral has been in the black for the past three years and is growing its annual budget. It is entirely funded by private donations. Much of his time since he became dean in 2016 has been spent cultivating

those funds.

One major ongoing fundraising effort, which has been kept separate from the rest of the cathedral’s budget: raising more than $30 million to repair damage from the 2011 earthquake. Almost half the money has been raised.

While those repairs move forward slowly, the College of Preachers reconstruction will go much faster. The cathedral hopes to open the new institute in late 2020, when Mars will be 90 years old.

Mars recalls writing her initials in wet cement when she was about 10 years old.

Her father told her: “Fools put names in public places.”

“I’ve never forgotten it,” she said.

But at her daughters’ suggestion, this new institute will bear Mars’s first and middle name. It will be called the Virginia Mae Center.

Storm tracking could be a casualty of 5G Todd Shields Bloomberg

Satellites tracking water vapor in 2012 helped scientists accurately predict Superstorm Sandy’s frightening turn toward New York and New Jersey where it killed dozens of people and inflicted billions of dollars in damage.

But now scientists are warning that their precision tracking of hurricanes could be disrupted by signals from the new generation of wireless networks known as 5G that will soon roll out across the U.S. In one test that mimicked interference, Sandy was incorrectly forecast to head out to sea.

At currently proposed 5G power levels, satellites may have trouble reading natural signals given off by water vapor. That could set back forecast accuracy to levels last seen around 1980, said Neil Jacobs, head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

“This would result in the reduction of hurricane track forecast lead time by roughly two to three days,” Jacobs told Congress at a hearing earlier this month.

The issue has split the Trump administration, with Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, whose agency includes NOAA, warning that critical Earth-science data could be lost. Even the Navy has expressed misgivings. The Federal Communications Commission, however, went ahead with an auction of spectrum in its drive to advance 5G communications.

The U.S. mobile communications industry, which says it’s investing $275 billion in 5G, scoffs at the notion that forecasts might be degraded. Such predictions amount to “an absurd claim with no science behind it,” according to a May 21 blog post by CTIA Executive Vice President Brad Gillen.

The mobile industry has a direct stake in the airwaves at issue. Already companies have pledged more than $2 billion for rights to use the frequencies, bidding in an auction run by the FCC that concluded May 28, with AT&T Inc. and T-Mobile US Inc. winning airwaves rights.

growing friction between wireless uses as more airwaves are claimed by 5G, with backing from the FCC and the administration of President Donald Trump, who has called for “freeing up as much wireless spectrum as needed.”

The FCC expects to sell rights to three airwaves swaths in coming months, in addition to two batches that were sold at auction already this year.

One of those two, in the band known as 24 GHz, is the sale that drew $2 billion in bids and excited the attention to hurricane and storm forecasts.

Power levels proposed by the FCC could degrade forecast skills by as much as 30%, NOAA’s Jacobs told Congress.

After Sandy struck, European forecasters ran a test withholding vapor-sensing data and “the model, which is the most accurate model in the world right now, kept the storm out to sea,” Jacobs said. “It’s incredibly important.”

Ross, the commerce secretary, said in a Feb. 28 letter to the FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, a Trump appointee, that “the current FCC proposal would have a significant negative impact on the transmission of critical Earth science data.”

Instruments aboard satellites sample signals naturally emitted by water molecules, James Bridenstine, the administrator of NASA, the space agency, told a Senate committee on May 14.

“We are sensing passively the energy state of water molecules in the atmosphere,” Bridenstine said. “That is set by physics. We can’t just go to a different part of the spectrum.”

Some lawmakers have called for the FCC to hold off awarding spectrum to the winners of the recent auction.

“We write with a straightforward request: Don’t allow wireless companies to operate in a 24 GHz band until vital weather forecasting operations are protected,” Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., said in a May 13 letter.

The senators released a U.S. Navy memo that said the FCC’s auction will result in “a probable degradation of weather and ocean models, resulting in increased risk in

Safety of Flight and Safety of Navigation.”

House Science Committee Chairwoman Eddie Bernice Johnson in a March 13 letter asked Pai to postpone the 24 GHz auction, set to begin taking bids the following day.

Pai, who is pursuing what he calls the 5G FAST plan, declined to delay the auction.

He said the sale had been long planned and that the agency had adopted regulations to protect other services.

“The commission’s decisions with respect to spectrum have been and will continue to be based on sound engineering rather than exaggerated and unverified last-minute assertions,” Pai said in a reply to Johnson.

The FCC declined to comment for this story, said Tina Pelkey, a spokeswoman.

The U.S. wants to have a unified position in time for an international conference on radio frequency rules that begins in October in Sharm elSheikh, Egypt.

The State Department, which will represent the U.S., is working to reconcile different agencies’ views on interference limits.

“I think there could be an elegant solution here,” Bridenstine, the NASA administrator, said in his Senate testimony.

“If the decibel level is low enough then it won’t bleed into” the water-vapor airwaves.

The CTIA is arguing against altering regulations. “Changing the rules now would dramatically reduce the amount of high-band spectrum available for robust 5G services,” Nick Ludlum, a spokesman for the wireless trade group, said in a May 31 blog post.

It’s politically difficult to claw back airwaves rights, for instance by lowering power limits, said Harold Feld, senior vice president at the tech policy group Public Knowledge.

“Just after the auction it’s really raw to say, I have bad news for you,” Feld said in an interview. The government may decide to leave power levels unchanged, but also be poised to halt deployments if the quality of weather forecasts suffers, he said.

Reducing power levels late in the game invites chaos,

and trips to court, said Roger Entner, an analyst with Recon Analytics.

Miffed companies could sue, claiming, “I bought a Ferrari, and I get a Ford Fiesta,” Entner said.

Curb your loss potential: 10 investing mistakes to avoid Who needs a pyramid scheme or a crooked money manager when you can lose money in the stock market all by yourself? If you want to help curb your loss potential, avoid these 10 practices.

1. Go with the herd. If everyone else is buying it, it must be good, right? Not necessarily. Investors tend to do what everyone else is doing and are overly optimistic when the market goes up and overly pessimistic when the market goes down. For instance, in 2008, the largest monthly outflow of U.S. domestic equity funds occurred after the market had fallen over 25% from its peak. And in 2011, the only time net inflows were recorded was before the market slid over 10%.

PERSONAL FINANCE

JAMES

ARMSTRONG 2. Put all of your bets on one high-flying stock. If you had invested your money today’s popular tech stocks 15 years ago, your portfolio may be good right now. But what if, instead, you had invested in Enron, Conseco, CIT, WorldCom, Washington Mutual, or Lehman Broth-

ers? All were high flyers at one point, yet all have since filed for bankruptcy, making them perfect candidates for the downwardly mobile investor.

3. Buy when the market is up. A basic principle of investing is to buy low and sell high, even though most investors do the opposite.

Make sure to have a strategy when investing and that you are not following the latest investment craze or fad.

4. Sell when the market is down. The temptation to sell is always highest when the market drops the furthest.

And it’s what many inexperienced investors tend to do, locking in losses and precluding future recoveries.

5. Stay on the sidelines until markets calm down. Since

HTC announces May Students of the Month TANNERSVILLE — Being nominated for student of the month at Hunter-Tannersville Middle/High School is a special honor. May’s students are Wyatt Leach and Megan Wood.

With this honor comes recognition and support.

Each student of the month enjoys a lunch or dinner for two at The Last Chance Antiques and Cheese Café, a one-day lift ticket at Hunter Mountain provided by Peak Resorts, two passes to the Mountain Cinema from the Catskill Mountain Foundation, an engraved pen from the SPTO, a family bumper sticker from the board of education, and a complimentary special breakfast from Principal Tom Cervola.

Leach, a ninth-grader, represents the “Maroon Group” (grades 7-9). He is the son Robin and Eirik Leach of Hunter.

Wyatt has been a member in the chorus since fourth grade. He was a member of band in grades 4 through 8.

Wyatt achieves Honor Roll status every quarter and this year has maintained the Superintendent’s Honor Roll for all three quarters.

He received a letter from the President when given the gold-seal certificate for the President’s Educational Excellence Award upon exiting middle school.

Wyatt’s interests are in computers, video editing, and writing songs and music for his band. He likes school because he learns and experiences new information about the world that he never knew before. In the future, he would like to go to college

markets almost never “calm down,” this is the perfect rationale to never get in. In today’s world, that may mean running the risk of not keeping pace with inflation.

6. Buy on tips from friends. Who needs professional advice when your new buddy from the gym can give you some great tips? If his stock suggestions are as good as his abs workout tips, you can’t go wrong. Think again.

7. Rely on the pundits for advice. With all the experts out there crowding the airwaves with their recommendations, why not take their advice? But which advice should you follow? And remember that what pundits sell best is themselves.

8. Go with your gut. Fun-

damental research may be OK for the pros, but it’s much easier to buy or sell based on what your gut tells you. Had problems with your laptop lately? Maybe you should sell that company’s stock. When it comes to hunches, irrationality rules.

9. React frequently to market volatility. Responding to the market’s daily ups and downs gives you the potential to lock in losses. Even professional traders sometimes miss on predicting the market’s bigger shifts, let alone daily fluctuations.

10. Set it and forget it. Ignoring your portfolio until you’re ready to cash it in gives it the opportunity to go out of balance, with past winners dominating. It may also make

for a misalignment of original investing goals and shifting life-stage priorities. *Footnotes/Disclaimers 1 Sources: ICI; Standard & Poor’s.

Unveiling and dedication of historic marker at former Catskill Mountain Railway Bridge CATSKILL — The Greene County Historical Society is pleased to announce the unveiling and dedication of a new history marker at 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 8, to commemorate Catskill’s recently restored pedestrian bridge over Catskill Creek.

Rehabilitation and restoration of the bridge was accomplished with grant funds awarded to the village of Catskill, and was officially reopened to pedestrian traffic in 2017 with considerable fanfare. The bridge, which is nearing 140 years old, was once part of a narrow-gauge railroad originally constructed to shuttle passengers from the steamboat dock at Catskill Point to the famed Catskill Mountain House, located at Pine Orchard on South Mountain. The bridge has served as a pedestrian thoroughfare since 1918 and continues to serve as a vital connection between the east and west sides of the village of Catskill.

The marker’s unveiling June 8 was funded by a grant from the William G. Pomeroy Foundation. Since 2005 the foundation has worked with historians across New York state and beyond to fund the creation of informative and permanent road-

side markers detailing rich local and regional history. The foundation is proud to make these grants available to municipalities and all 501(c) 3 organizations as a tool to foster curiosity, drive tourism, and educate the public broadly on regional history topics dating between 1740 and 1919.

The Greene County Historical Society was pleased to be awarded this grant by the Pomeroy Foundation, as it aids the Historical Society in its mission to educate the public on the history and heritage of Greene

County.

At the turn of the 20th century tourism was the premier seasonal industry in Greene County, and very little remains today of the infrastructure that attracted and transported thousands of annual visitors to this portion of the Northern Catskills. The pedestrian bridge in Catskill is one of the last remaining vestiges of this golden age, and over a million summer visitors travelled across that bridge on their way to local hotels and boarding houses over the course of the bridge’s 35-year service bear-

ing locomotives across Catskill Creek.

The Greene County Historical Society appreciates the village of Catskill for preserving this piece of history, and GCHS’s effort to commemorate the bridge’s history would not have been possible without the support of the William G. Pomeroy Foundation, they said.

The unveiling and dedication will be held at the east side of the pedestrian bridge, immediately adjacent to Crossroads Brewing Company located at 201 Water St., Catskill.

CALENDAR LISTINGS

‘Louis Comfort Tiffany: Treasures from the Driehaus Collection’ UTICA — A celebration of luminous beauty, “Louis Comfort Tiffany: Treasures from the Driehaus Collection,” opening June 16 at Munson-WilliamsProctor Arts Institute Museum of Art, features more than 60 artworks, spanning more than 30 years of Tiffany’s prolific career.

The exhibition focuses on Louis Comfort Tiffany’s brilliant stained-glass windows, iridescent floral vases, shimmering lamps and accessories highlighting masterworks never before presented in a comprehensive exhibition.

Tiffany was one of America’s preeminent designers of decorative arts and interiors. Under his artistic direction and using enamels, metalwork, precious stones, wood, ceramics, and, of course, glass, the artisans employed at Tiffany Studios fashioned beautiful objects for public commissions and private residences. Tiffany’s technical brilliance in a wide variety of media enabled him to convey his awe of the natural world through a range of objects, from household items to singular masterpieces. He earned international acclaim for his artistic

output, receiving prestigious awards in exhibitions across Europe and the United States.

Hike South Mountain by the Historic Direct Path HAINES FALLS — Hike South Mountain by the Historic Direct Path, Saturday, June 8.

To honor the gift of an original Catskill Mountain House hiking stick donated by Kathy (Van Schaack) Boyer and Peggy (Van Schaack) Phillips, a group will take a popular 19th century path from the Mountain House site on Pine Orchard to sites on South Mountain.

This now unusual route will pass through the first ledge on South Mountain (sometimes called the Lemon Squeezer), take a short detour to Druid Rocks, pass through Puddingstone Hall, and reach the state trail at Bootjack Rock. Once on the modern trail, you will see the lookout called the Sphinx, walk on to “Bowlder” Rock and there will be an optional excursion

through Fat Man’s Delight to the Natural Bridge.

The pristine CMH walking stick joins another walking stick from the Hotel Kaaterskill, which was donated to MTHS by the Mohonk Barn Museum. The new gift is in too fine a condition

to risk carrying it through the whole walk, but organizers will bring it to Pine Orchard for an official presentation. The hike is considered easy to moderate with a short bushwhack. An easier alternative route will be offered along the state trail to

Boulder Rock but missing the sites before reaching the modern trail. Meet at 9 a.m. at the MTHS campus, wear appropriate shoes for hiking, and bring lunch and water. Return will be at mid afternoon.

Membership for hike participation is not required, but participants are encouraged to join or make a donation to the MTHS to support their work.

Participants are asked to register for each hike.

Register on the contacts page or by calling 518-589-6657.

Please leave your name, phone number, and the number in your party. Schedule subject to change. The latest information is available at mths.org. Notification of changes, including cancellations due to weather will be made on the web site.

Madlyn Goldman’s ‘The Family…Head, Body and Soul’ at RiverWinds Gallery BEACON — RiverWinds Gallery at 172 Main Street, Beacon, is presenting “The Family…

Head, Body and Soul,” mixed media and assemblages by Madlyn Goldman.

Goldman’s whimsical work combines paint, paper, odd metal stuff and wit. The Artist Opening is June 8, from 6-9 p.m.

The show runs through July 8.

“My father was a saver so it is no accident that I am drawn to recycled materials,” Goldman said. “Searching for and finding these discarded objects at flea markets, junk yards and garage sales is an integral part of my process. The challenge is to combine disparate found pieces along with my handcrafted elements to give them new life and personality.

“I work spontaneously and intuitively constantly reassessing the progress of each piece.

Each action informs the next until a distinct identity emerges and a character is born. I love making these quirky pieces with their playful personalities and names. It is my hope that my ‘extended family,’ with its gritty

Mr. Blue, mixed media, Madlyn Goldman

and whimsical flavor, will evoke a sense of delight and amusement.”

the runner out to end the game.

It was then on to the championship game where the Chaos got an early jump on USSSA Pride.

Unfortunately, after more than a hour rain delay, the game was called and the Chaos were awarded second place, based on seeding.

“Both Gabby Logue and Emily Mesick had amazing weekends on the mound for us,” Walsh said. “They pitched a total of 34 innings only gave up 14 runs and had 27 strikeouts and only three walks That is absolutely amazing.

“Our infield was spot on as well With Makayla Walsh behind the plate, Emily Mesick and Gabby Logue pitching and help from Riley Sitcer at second, Hannah Pinto at first , Ryan Carroll at shortstop and Ava Heffner at third we pulled

off two of the most amazing pitch-out pick offs I’ve ever seen, completely amazing.”

Yankees’ Happ wrestles with being a fly-ball pitcher in a home-run era

Newsday

Eli Manning knows it’s coming.

With every incompletion.

With every interception. With every sack.

The scrutiny will be more intense now than it’s ever been in his previous 15 seasons as the Giants’ starting quarterback. The dynamic has shifted profoundly now that Daniel Jones is here and

will lurk in the shadows until the day comes when it’s his turn to take over for Manning.

When that day will come, no one truly knows. But it’s coming. And Manning knows it. He insists there is no extra emphasis on his preparation; he has been one of the NFL’s hardest-working players since coming into the league in 2004. But he understands, just as then Giants QB Kurt Warner understood that first

season of Manning’s career that the torch will be passed.

“The biggest challenge your leash is always short,” Warner said of Manning’s situation in a recent interview.

“Are you performing at a certain level every single week?

Any time you slip up, no matter how good you’ve been, it’s an opportunity for everybody to sit back and go, ‘Is it time?

The New York Times News Service

TORONTO — Through most of his 13-year major league career, J.A. Happ has made a living inducing fly balls. They account for nearly 40% of his pitches that hitters put in play, which ranks him fifth among pitchers with at least 1,500 innings since 2009.

Being a fly ball pitcher in 2019, though, is quite treacherous. Four of the five highest

home-run rates in an MLB season have come since 2016 (the fifth season, 2000, was before steroid testing). Hitters are on pace this season to shatter the home run record set in 2017, and 1,135 balls left the field in May — the most homers ever in a calendar month, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

That spike is most painful for pitchers like Happ. He is on pace to allow more home runs in a season than he ever has

before.

After a rough first month of this season, Happ steadily improved in May. But even when he pitched solidly, he gave up a steady diet of home runs. Through 12 starts, he has allowed 15 homers — at least one in all but two games. In 31 total starts last season for the Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Yankees, he allowed a career-high 27.

CARY EDMONDSON/USA TODAY

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (7) and Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) battle for the ball during the fourth quarter in game three of the 2019 NBA Finals at Oracle Arena.

Dieter Kurtenbach The Mercury News

OAKLAND, Calif. — Klay Thompson had never missed a playoff game in his professional career before a hamstring injury kept him out of Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday.

And boy did the Warriors miss him.

Without Thompson’s shooting and elite-level defense, the Warriors had to smash and grind for all 48 minutes of a pivotal game. And while Stephen Curry turned in a magical, inspiring, 47-point performance to give Golden State a chance, all the pixie dust in the world could not make one man beat an entire team.

Especially a team as good as Toronto. After the Warriors took a 3-2 lead in the infancy of the game, the Raptors took over and led the rest of the way en route to a 123-109 win.

And so, for the first time since 2015, the Warriors trail an NBA Finals 2-1.

In Game 3, the Raptors found their shooting stroke while the Warriors’ role players apparently had to surrender theirs at customs when they re-entered the country.

Toronto’s Danny Green — who had struggled to make anything over the prior month — knocked down six 3-pointers. Kyle Lowry made his first impact on the box score in the

series, scoring 23 points. Six Raptors scored in double-figures.

With Toronto scoring seemingly at will for most of the game, it required a Herculean effort from Curry to keep the Warriors in the contest.

He, of course, delivered.

But the crux of the loss was that the other Warriors simply were not good enough on Wednesday.

The Warriors’ slogan is “Strength in Numbers.” In Game 3, it was more of a taunt.

DeMarcus Cousins, a critical offensive cog for the first time in his Warriors’ tenure, was not good enough. Game 3 was his opportunity to show that he deserves a massive contract this upcoming offseason — instead, he went 1-of-7 from the field and was an easy target for Toronto on the defensive end.

Shaun Livingston, who started in the place of Thompson, was not good enough. The beloved veteran went 1-of-4 from the field, missing a couple of close-range shots.

Draymond Green might be the Stephen Curry of defense, but he needed to provide the Warriors something more on offense in Game 3 — his scoring spurt came too late — and the team’s failures on defense have to fall on his feet as the team’s leader on that side of the court. He wasn’t good enough.

Alfonzo McKinnie and Jonas Jerebko, given a chance to make a splash in extended minutes, did just that, but not in a good way. They weren’t good enough.

To their credit, Quinn Cook, Andre Iguodala, and Andrew Bogut made solid contributions Wednesday — Cook’s shooting (4-of-9) was a positive, Iguodala knocked down four shots and guarded Leonard, and Bogut’s rim protection and resurgent (but sporadic) low-post offense made a plus impact. But just having those three in the mix was not good enough.

Perhaps now Curry knows how LeBron James felt against him in the Finals over the last few years.

But truth be told, the Warriors’ performance wasn’t all that surprising. To have expected yet another tremendous, game-stealing performance from the Warriors’ role players — coming off of short-handed wins in Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals and Game 4 of the Western Conference finals — would have been downright greedy. But over the course of the 48-minute contest, it was harrowing.

The question now is if it will be disheartening.

The Warriors kept Thompson on their active roster for Game 3 and with him fighting

to play in the game, there was a relentless whisper in the back of everyone watching’s mind that he could come in, stand in a corner, and knock down a few shots. Maybe he could provide Curry some muchneeded help. There’s no doubt that Thompson can hit a few 3-pointers on one leg, right?

But while Golden State’s coaches weren’t conceding Game 3 by not playing Thompson, they knew that the repercussions of putting an injured Thompson on the court could be dire.

By holding Thompson out of the contest, the Warriors hope that he will be able to play the rest of a series that seems destined to go the full seven games.

Add Kevin Durant to the mix — he could make a return from a calf injury that’s sidelined him for a month in Game 4 — and the Warriors feel confident that they can win three of the next five games, even without home court advantage, which they conceded with Wednesday’s loss.

But whether by choice, bad luck, or bad play or a combination of all three, the Warriors’ hopes of a fourth title in five years likely rides on Friday’s Game 4.

No pressure.

NBA notebook: GM Ainge didn’t see Celtics’ commitment Field Level Media

Danny Ainge is just five weeks removed from his second heart attack, but that didn’t stop him from delivering a strong opinion of the 2018-19 Boston Celtics on Wednesday.

“There’s a lot of guys that didn’t handle things the right way, and didn’t make the sacrifices that needed to be done for the benefit of the team,” the Boston general manager and president of basketball operations told reporters in his first interview session since his May 2 heart attack. “We didn’t have 100 percent buy-in from 100 percent of the team. I did not anticipate that.”

The Celtics were ousted in the second round of the playoffs by the Milwaukee Bucks to cap what was a frustrating season, finishing with just the fourth-best record in the Eastern Conference at 49-33. “We all need to learn from this past year,” the 60-year-old Ainge said.

Ainge said point guard Kyrie Irving – who possibly has played his last game with the team – received too much of the blame for the team’s underachieving nature. “It’s unfortunate that one person gets credit or blame for a team’s failures,” Ainge said.

“We had a lot of reasons the team did not

succeed this year. Kyrie deserves his share of the blame, but not any more than anybody else.”

The absence was Thompson’s first in his postseason career after having made a franchise-record 120 straight playoff appearances. LeBron James, with 239, is the only player with a longer streak.

–Vince Carter said that the 2019-20 season will his last in the NBA, which would give the high-flying small forward the record for most seasons played in league history.

On ESPN’s “The Jump,” Carter said that his 22nd season will be his final one, putting the end to a memorable career that saw him play in eight All-Star Games after earning the 1998-99 NBA Rookie of the Year award.

Other players with 21 seasons in the league include Robert Parish, Kevin Willis, Kevin Garnett and Dirk Nowitzki. “I got one more in me,” the 42-year-old Carter said. “I got one more run in me.”

–The USA Basketball roster for the FIBA World Cup in China later this summer will have some NBA star power, as ESPN reported that Anthony Davis, James Harden, Damian Lillard and Bradley Beal are among the hopefuls for a spot on the team.

Other players who reportedly will be in an 18-player camp, vying to be on the 12man roster, include the Portland Trail Blazers’ CJ McCollum, the Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kevin Love, the Houston Rockets’ Eric Gordon, the Utah Jazz’s Donovan Mitchell and the Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum.

Other roster possibilities include Kyle Kuzma of the Los Angeles Lakers, P.J. Tucker of the Rockets, Paul Millsap of the Denver Nuggets and Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez of the Milwaukee Bucks, according to ESPN. –The Oklahoma City Thunder could trade their No. 21 overall pick in the upcoming NBA draft to save money, according to a report.

Shams Charania of The Athletic reported that the Thunder “have had multiple conversations” with other teams about a trade possibility.

The Thunder trailed only the Golden State Warriors in team payroll in the 201819 season at $142.9 million. That amount will trigger the luxury tax. While the No. 21 pick is slotted to earn $2.1 million, paying that amount would lead to continued luxury tax.

COLUMBIA-GREENE MEDIA

Odell Beckham Jr. giddy about Browns’ potential Nate Ulrich Akron Beacon Journal BEREA, Ohio — Odell Beckham Jr.’s reunion with the Browns has rejuvenated his excitement about his new team.

After skipping the vast majority of the voluntary offseason workout program that began April 1, Beckham reported to Browns headquarters Monday for mandatory minicamp. He addressed media after Wednesday’s practice, the second of this week’s three sessions, and couldn’t hide his enthusiasm.

“I do see a lot of potential with this team, and not even just because I’m here,” Beckham said. “I really feel it, and I feel something in the air, something special that Cleveland hasn’t had for a while.

And I’m happy to be a part of that. I hope that I can help do whatever I need to do to push that that way.”

Beckham expressed confidence he’ll absorb coach Freddie Kitchens’ playbook and build chemistry with quarterback Baker Mayfield without much trouble. He plans to work out regularly with Mayfield in Los Angeles this summer.

He also notices the pieces falling into place for the entire team. He became a vital part of it all when Browns general manager John Dorsey acquired him March 12 by pulling off a blockbuster trade with the New York Giants.

“I’m almost giddy,” said Beckham, a three-time Pro Bowl selection. “I feel like a little kid with the excitement that I have, seeing Baker, seeing these guys. You know we talk a lot about this offense, but this defense is something special, and this team is really coming together.

“I’m beyond excited about the opportunity I have here to start over, a new team. Obvi-

Manning From B1

Is he hitting the wall?’ “ I relayed those comments to Manning a few minutes after Wednesday’s minicamp practice, and he knew exactly what Warner was talking about.

“I think that’ll come,” he said of the increased pressure. “Just knowing that all of a sudden, you have struggles, things can change.”

There has never been a serious threat to Manning’s job se-

Yankees From B1

“I don’t know quite how to explain it,” Happ said this week. “I’m not trying to get too deep into the conspiracy theories. I want to give credit where credit is due. And guys may be changing their swings or maybe having a better path to the ball or ...”

Happ, a 36-year-old lefthander, paused to choose his words carefully. “I don’t know,” he said, “but it seems like it happened real quick.”

Although there are many contributing factors, one trend is obvious in Happ’s statistics. His highest fly-ball rates came in 2011 (44%) and in 2013 (46%), according to Fangraphs. But those were not the years that the highest percentage of fly balls that he allowed became home runs. The top three would be 2017, 2018 and this season, each one higher than the last, mimicking a spike across the majors.

Still, Happ isn’t making excuses. After rough games, he hasn’t blamed the overall home run surge or referred to claims that the ball itself has changed. Entering his Thursday start against his old team, the Blue Jays, he knows he hasn’t pitched quite like himself. His 4.83 ERA (through 63 1/3 innings) is his highest

ously, the goal is always going to be the same — to hang banners. That’s what you play this game for. We know we got a lot of expectations. We got a lot of work to do, and I think we’ll get there.”

Beckham explained why he skipped the team’s three-day voluntary veteran minicamp in late April and participated in just one of nine OTA practices last month.

“Everybody knows their body,” Beckham, 26, said. “I know my body better than anybody else, so I know what it takes to get me in top physical condition, mental, all of those things. This isn’t my first rodeo. It’s not my first go-round.

I just know what it takes to get there.

“Coach (Kitchens) and I

have a different plan than everybody else. We talked and communicated throughout the offseason, so he knew my whereabouts and when I’d be here and when I wouldn’t be.

So everybody kind of knew the game plan, and I was just taking my time easing back into it. The good thing about it is we play in September.”

Beckham had been vacationing throughout the world and training on his own in Los Angeles. But Kitchens pointed out Beckham had also been learning the playbook on his own because he had access to it on his iPad. “I have always heard from the people that I trust that Odell is a good guy and he works his ass off,” Kitchens said. “If he does that, he’s go-

ing to be successful.”

Last month, Beckham made national headlines when he told GQ Magazine, “I plan on being (in Cleveland) for the next five years and trying to bring as many championships there as possible, turning (the Browns) into the new (New England) Patriots.”

On Wednesday, Beckham shared a story to illustrate his hunger for a title. He said when he played sixth-grade basketball in New Orleans, he made a half-court shot in a championship game, but the officials didn’t count what he thought should have been a buzzer-beater.

“They called it off,” he said.

“They told me it was no good, and I remember crying that entire night. I want to win. I

want to be a champion.”

The memory is related to his dream of duplicating the Patriots dynasty.

“Who wouldn’t aspire to be the Patriots,” Beckham said.

“Who wouldn’t want to be an 11-5, 12-4 team, win the division, go to the AFC Championship every single year, win your division, go to the championship, go to the Super Bowl? I don’t know why else you got in this game. I didn’t get in this game to get money or anything like that. I got in this game to be a champion.

All my life, I’ve never really been a champion.”

He’s also only been to the playoffs once in five NFL seasons — the Giants lost in the wild-card round to wrap up their 2016 season — and

promised he’s willing to sacrifice individual statistics for team success.

“I’m ready to get back to the playoffs,” he said, “and show what I can do.”

Although Beckham insists he’s primarily driven by his quest for a title, there are other sources of fuel. In late April, he wrote on Twitter he felt disrespected by the Giants in the aftermath of the trade, and he admitted Wednesday being shipped away by them — a development he said he could feel coming — motivates him.

“It was the rookie symposium I went to, and I remember (Hall of Fame receiver) Cris Carter telling his story about his career and all these things that happened and how he got cut and it was the best thing that happened to him,” Beckham said.

“I was like, ‘If I ever got cut or traded, not to say it’s going to be the best thing that ever happened to me, but it’s going to motivate me to be better.’

This is a business. There’s no any bad blood or anything like that. (The Giants) made a decision that was best for them. I think it’s best for me.”

Beckham’s experience with the Browns is certainly in its infancy, and he likened himself to the new kid at school.

For instance, he tries to eat lunch with someone different every day as he makes friends.

Comfort is essential for Beckham. As a mega-celebrity, the attention he receives can be stressful.

“I feel like I’m in a way different position than anybody else in the NFL,” he said. “I feel like I deal with more.”

At the same time, Beckham said he feels as if he belongs with the Browns, who employ his close friend and fellow Louisiana State University product Jarvis Landry and former LSU and Giants receivers coach Adam Henry.

curity, never a veteran presence or a highly rated young quarterback to take over. The one and only time he didn’t start — late in the 2017 season — was a miserably handled decision by soonto-be-fired coach Ben McAdoo, and Geno Smith wasn’t about to take over on a long-term basis.

But this time is clearly different, and Jones is clearly the team’s quarterback of the future.

Everyone knows it, including the 38-year-old Manning, who will nevertheless try to prepare the same way he has throughout his career.

“I don’t think you can stress

that,” he said. “You got to go out there. I’m going to do my best every time I’m at practice and every time at the games and hope that’s enough for us to win the games.”

Does he need to prepare psychologically for what lies ahead?

“I think it’s still kind of a situation where you have to have the same approach you’ve treated all the other years and just kind of hope for the best.”

The 38-year-old Manning remains highly motivated, but not simply to fend off Father Time and keep Jones at bay for as long as he can. No, that’s not the

point for one of the game’s great competitors and a two-time Super Bowl MVP. “You’re driven just because it’s football and you’ve got a job to do and you want to win games,” he said. “That’s what drives you, going out and winning. You work hard to do that, and you deserve to win games and continue to win games.

That’s what’s driving you to compete every day in practice.”

Wednesday’s practice was exactly what you want to see from Manning and Jones. After an uneven session the day before, both quarterbacks were

on point, with only a handful of incompletions among them.

That’s the best-case scenario, where Manning looks sharp and Jones continues to learn the offense.

“I see improvement from (Jones) every day,” coach Pat Shurmur said after practice. “He displays to me that he gets it and he’s becoming more and more comfortable with what we’re doing offensively. He’s making plays in every practice, and in our view, he’s getting better in every practice.”

Shurmur will be the one to make the call on when it’s time

for Jones to take over, and Manning will do everything in his power to delay that decision as long as possible. But the only way that happens is if Manning plays at a high enough level to remain the starter.

“Mindset is, ‘Hey, I have to do my job. I have to compete and make plays,’ “ Manning said.

“That is what you’re trying to do.”

Manning’s mission: Making it impossible for Shurmur to take him out of the lineup.

As Warner found out, and as Manning may eventually discover, nothing is guaranteed.

since 2011.

There are many theories as to what led to the increased slugging: Pitchers are throwing harder than ever and with drastic movement, and since batters are increasingly encouraged to try to hit home runs, they have tailored their swings to do just that.

Commissioner Rob Manfred has repeatedly insisted that nothing about the manufacturing or specifications of the ball had changed. But an MLB report released last year found that the main factor in the increased home run rates was that balls inexplicably had less drag and thus traveled farther.

“I can’t feel a change,” Happ said. “I see a change.”

This all leaves Happ, who re-signed with the Yankees for two years and $34 million this offseason, with a critical question: How can a fly-ball pitcher survive in this era?

“Keep going and keep trying to pitch,” he said. “I don’t have an answer for how I’m specifically combating that, other than trying to be as accurate as I can with execution and then just take your chances and hope that the percentages come down. But you see, that’s the way the game is going.”

There could be another combination of factors affecting Happ’s performance. His average fastball velocity this season is 90.5 mph, down from

92 last season and below his career average of 91.1. Happ has toggled between his tailing four-seam fastball and his sinking two-seamer, while mixing in a slider and changeup.

“It just becomes a matter of executing pitches,” said Larry Rothschild, the Yankees’ pitching coach. “I don’t really know if he’s really hit his stride right now. He’s getting close.

That’ll all take care of itself. But there is point of, ‘Yeah, fly balls go out of the park now.’”

The Blue Jays’ Trent Thornton, a rookie starting pitcher

who also relies on fly-ball outs, can relate to Happ.

“It’s just about having to execute your pitch a little bit more and make sure you’re hitting your spots,” Thornton, 25, said. “Because if you’re a guy that lives up in the zone — up and down, rather than side to side — and you miss a pitch over the plate, then it’s going to get hit. So there’s just a little bit less room for error.

But if you just make your pitch, it pays off a lot more.”

By that, Thornton meant a strikeout, because swinging for the fences makes a batter

more likely to miss. The MLB strikeout rate has risen in sync with the home run average in recent years, to record highs.

Happ’s strikeout rate is down from his career-high mark last season. His fourseam fastball, which is effective for strikeouts, is being hit harder this season than it was during his All-Star 2018 campaign. Twelve of the 15 home

runs he has allowed this season have come on that pitch, even though he has thrown it less frequently than last year.

Baseball is often cyclical: An adjustment by pitchers is reversed by batters, and so on.

Perhaps this simply is a better time for pitchers who do not specialize in getting fly balls.

“I’m wondering the same thing,” Happ said.

NFL notebook: LT Williams reportedly wants out of D.C. Field Level Media

Seven-time Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams wasn’t present Tuesday for the start of the Washington Redskins’ mandatory minicamp, and it was presumed he wanted a new contract.

One report Wednesday, however, said that isn’t the case. Instead, CBS Sports’ Jason La Canfora reported that Williams wants out of Washington because of how the team addressed surgery he had in April to remove a tumor from his scalp.

La Canfora said numerous sources confirmed that Williams’ issues with the Redskins are not related to money. Instead, he wants to be traded or released “due to their handling of his recent medical situation. Has vowed not to play for them,” La Canfora wrote on Twitter.

Coach Jay Gruden addressed the report with the media on Wednesday and didn’t deny La Canfora’s reporting. He said he found out a few days ago that Williams wouldn’t be showing up at minicamp and said he hopes he changes his mind and rejoins the team.

–Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard admitted that he knew linebacker Bobby Okereke faced a sexual assault allegation in 2015 at Stanford when the team selected the linebacker in the third round of April’s draft.

An independent student-run website at Stanford called The Fountain Hopper detailed Okereke’s situation on Tuesday and reported that the Colts knew of the allegation when they selected him. A Title IX investigation in 2016 sided with Okereke, so he didn’t face discipline.

According to Ballard, Okereke informed the Colts of the situation at the Senior Bowl in January. Ballard said the team studied documents from the Title IX case and was comfortable with selecting Okereke.

–The Cleveland Browns waived former starting left tackle Desmond Harrison, a day after he missed the first practice of the team’s mandatory minicamp.

Head coach Freddie Kitchens told reporters Harrison missed a flight and was “a little late.” He added that the team “just decided to move on.”

Harrison, 25, started the Browns’ first eight games in 2018 at left tackle – the first player to start at the position following stalwart Joe Thomas’ retirement – as an undrafted rookie out of West Georgia. He was a late scratch in Week 9 with an illness and was inactive the rest of the year after losing the starting job to Greg Robinson.

–The Baltimore Ravens agreed on a four-year rookie contract with first-round wideout Marquise “Hollywood” Brown.

Like all first-round contracts, the deal comes with a fifth-year team option. No terms were announced, but the expected value based on Brown’s No. 25 draft slot is $11.8 million over the first four years.

Brown is recovering from a Lisfranc injury in his foot and has not participated in offseason practices, but he is expected to be ready for training camp.

–Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Justin Evans is recovering from a surgical procedure on his heel, not on the toe that ended his 2018 season, head coach Bruce Arians said on Tampa Bay WDAE radio.

Evans was in a walking boot when mandatory minicamp opened Tuesday, with many speculating it related to last year’s toe injury. Arians clarified Wednesday that it is a heel issue, and Evans will be in a boot for a few weeks.

Evans, 23, has started 19 of 24 games through two seasons after he was a second-round pick in 2017.

–Former Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Allen Bailey visited the Atlanta Falcons, ESPN reported.

Bailey, 30, has also visited the New England Patriots, Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks. He had career highs of six sacks and 10 quarterback hits last season while playing mostly on the interior for the Chiefs.

–Former Denver Broncos safety Darian Stewart visited the Indianapolis Colts earlier this week, NFL Network reported.

Stewart, 30, was released by the Broncos to save cap space in March. He started 58 of 61 games over the last four seasons, earning a Pro Bowl nod in 2016.

–The Buffalo Bills signed defensive tackle L.T. Walton and tight end Nate Becker, releasing defensive tackle Quindarius Thagard and tight end Moral Stephens to make room on the roster.

Walton, 27, played in 36 games (four starts) for the Pittsburgh Steelers over the last four years, making two sacks. Becker is an undrafted rookie out of Miami (Ohio) who spent time briefly with the Detroit Lions earlier this offseason.

–The Panthers signed former Bucs cornerback Javien Elliott, waiving guard Brendan Mahon to make room on the roster.

Elliott, 25, played in 36 games (seven starts) over the past three seasons, with one interception and two pass breakups.

College basketball’s 3-point line to move as part of NCAA rules changes Alex Zietlow and Steve Wiseman The News & Observer College basketball’s 3-point shot just got a little deeper.

The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel approved moving the 3-point line to the international basketball distance in men’s basketball, the NCAA announced Wednesday. The distance is now 22 feet, 1 3/4 inches — 16.75 inches farther than the line was for the 2018-19 season.

The rule will go into effect this upcoming season for Division I schools, per the NCAA release.

The Men’s Basketball Rules committee recommended this change after coaches provided positive feedback in a post-play rules survey after competing in the 2018 and 2019 National Invitation Tournaments.

The committee said moving back the 3-point arc would make the lane more available for dribble penetration and would slow the trend of the 3-point shot becoming “too prevalent in men’s college basketball.”

Villanova coach Jay Wright, in a statement released by the NCAA, said he likes the move.

“The time is right because it gets college guys close to the NBA line,” Wright said. “The shooting has improved enough that moving back is warranted. The line back will create better spacing and help with freedom of movement.”

The international distance was used on an experimental basis during National Invitation Tournament games and the shots proved tougher to make. Participating teams hit only 33% of their 3-pointers, compared to the national regular-season average of 35.2.

N.C. State played three NIT games last March using the deeper distance for 3-pointers. A 35.2% shooting team for the season, the Wolfpack hit 23 of 69 (33 percent) during the NIT. Creighton coach Greg McDermott, in a statement released by the NCAA, said he thinks the change will be minimal.

“After playing in the NIT under experimental rules,” McDermott said, “I felt the difference in results and preparation was minimal. Outside of

providing a little more spacing, I don’t see it having a profound impact on the game.”

The last time the line was moved was before the 2008-09 season when it was extended from 19 feet, nine inches to 20 feet, nine inches.

ACC teams made 40% of their 3-pointers in conference play last season, which ranked No. 9 among all conferences. NCAA champion Virginia hit a league-best 43.1% of its 3-pointers in ACC play and 39.5% overall (No. 8 nationally).

North Carolina finished second behind Virginia in 3-point shooting in ACC play at 37.9 percent. The Tar Heels shot 36.2% for the season, well above the national average of 34.4 percent.

ACC champion Duke hit only

29.6% of its 3-pointers in ACC play, part of the team’s overall poor year of shooting from behind the arc.

Normally a solid 3-point shooting team, Duke struggled last season to a 30.8 percentage overall. That’s No. 327 among all Division I teams nationally.

It’s the first time a Duke team shot worse than 37% since the 2008-09 team hit 34.9 percent.

While Duke struggled to hit the 3-pointer last season, the Blue Devils were still among the nation’s top teams on offense. Duke’s offensive efficiency rating of 1.2 points per possession ranked No. 7 in the nation, according to KenPom.com. That’s the 11th consecutive season the Blue Devils finished in the top 10 nationally in that category.

Speaking last week before the rule change was made official, Krzyzewski downplayed the impact of poor 3-point shooting on last year’s Blue Devils, who went 32-6, won the ACC tournament and lost to Michigan State, 68-67, in the NCAA Tournament’s East Region final.

“We were a helluva scoring team,” Krzyzewski said. “We’ve been a really good scoring team every year.

You can’t get fixated on the lowest percentage that you score from. You have to figure out how to score the ball. That’s what we’ll try to do with this team. That’s why we try not to systemize our guys so that we can go to their strength. Obviously we scored a lot of points last year. We didn’t get eliminated because we couldn’t shoot the 3. We lost to a heck of a team.”

The longer 3-point line will go into effect for Division II and Division III a year later than Division I, starting with 2020-21.

In addition to extending the 3-point line, the NCAA made four other rules changes that will go into effect this season.

—In another effort to increase the pace of games, the 30-second shot clock will be reset to 20 seconds after a field goal attempt hits the rim and the offensive team rebounds the ball in the front court. Previously the clock was reset to the full 30 seconds.

—Players will be assessed a technical foul should they use derogatory language about an opponent’s race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, gender expression, gender identify, sexual orientation or disability.

—Coaches can call live-ball timeouts in the last two minutes of the second half and the last two minutes of any overtime periods. Previously, coaches weren’t allowed to call any live-ball timeouts during the game.

—In another rule change covering late-game situations, instant replay review can be conducted if a basket interference or goaltending call has been made in the last two minutes of the second half and the last two minutes of any overtime period.

A goalie less brash, but just as hungry Andrew Keh The New York Times News Service

LONDON — Erica Dambach recognized that the words she was using to describe her former player Alyssa Naeher — “very quiet and reserved,” “unassuming,” “very, very humble” — were not ones most people immediately associate with an indomitable athlete.

Dambach, who coached Naeher for three seasons at Penn State, said she once had those very same concerns about Naeher’s serene demeanor. But then she watched Naeher play.

“When she steps over the line, she takes on the personality of one of the top goalkeepers in the world,” Dambach said. “You can see the fire in her belly. You can see the fire in her eyes.

She becomes that winner that you know is inside her.”

Whether the rest of the world sees it, too, will be one of the crucial questions for the U.S. women’s soccer team as it prepares to defend its World Cup title this month in France.

For more than two decades, elite goalkeeping has felt like a birthright of the U.S. squad. From 1994 to 2008, Briana Scurry made the penalty area her personal property. Hope Solo took over from there and compiled a résumé that made her arguably the best women’s goalkeeper of all time.

Their teammates and coaches reaped the rewards.

One or the other was in net for nearly every game in every major tournament the women’s national team has contested since the mid-1990s. Each has won a World Cup title. Each has two Olympic gold medals in her trophy cabinet.

And now? Naeher, unknown to most of the world, and perhaps to many casual American fans just tuning in for the World Cup, has stepped into the starting role. Her ascension since Solo was ushered out of the program after the 2016 Olympics has brought with it an incessant stream of chatter about her readiness — not criticisms, precisely, more like openended inquiries — that she has had to parry away like any cross driven into the goal mouth.

Bill Streicher/USA TODAY United States goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher (1) warms up before a She Believes Cup women’s soccer match against Japan at Talen Energy Stadium.

And Naeher is not particularly interested in engaging with any of it.

“I compare myself to who I was yesterday and try to be better each day,” Naeher said. “I don’t compare it to anything else. I try to be Alyssa. That’s all I can control. That’s who I am.”

The comparisons, though, have been inevitable.

It was Scurry who helped crystallize them this year when she singled out the goalkeeping position as a potential problem area for the United States as it chases another World Cup title.

“In the past, when you look at strengths and weaknesses of the U.S. team, goalkeeping has always been in the strength column,” she told The Philadelphia Inquirer, “and right now it’s in the question column.”

Scurry’s implication was that Naeher had not been tested on the big stage. But the nature of the position — there can be only one — and Solo’s long, dominant tenure meant Naeher never really had that chance.

Until now. Naeher, 31, has been awaiting this opportunity for years.

She grew up in Connecticut, playing alongside and against her twin sister,

Amanda, who was a striker and therefore an ideal practice partner.

Naeher turned professional after leaving Penn State in 2010, and in 2014, after two years in Germany’s Bundesliga, she returned to the nascent National Women’s Soccer League and was promptly named its goalkeeper of the year. A year later, she watched from the sideline as Solo played every minute of the 2015 World Cup. The same thing happened the next summer at the Rio Olympics.

Among Scurry’s comments this year was the assertion that, at some point, a goalkeeper looking to prove herself needed to carry a team on her shoulders. Dambach said she watched Naeher do just that over and over during their time together at Penn State.

“The game would be over and I would think, ‘Alyssa pulled out two game-winning saves for us,’ and I feel like that was the case week in and week out,” Dambach said. “And then the next day, she’d come in, quiet, unassuming, and get back to work.”

In that way, Naeher operates at a

different volume than her predecessor.

Solo was the type to appear on “Dancing With the Stars,” to party hard and tell people about it, to taunt opponents and challenge teammates. She was also an immensely skilled goalkeeper. She made 202 appearances, notched 102 shutouts and at one point ran off a 55-game unbeaten streak.

Back then, Naeher could only wait for her turn. After climbing her way through the youth national team ranks, she made her first senior national team appearance in December 2014. And then she waited some more.

“We all have big-picture hopes, but I tried to stay in the moment,” Naeher said about her years as a backup. “You can play the what-if game round and round and round. But the more I can avoid that, the better off I am.”

Naeher’s chance came, finally, when Solo was suspended from the national team in 2016 for what was portrayed at the time as an accumulation of transgressions, most notably some explosive comments in the wake of the Americans’ loss to Sweden in the Olympic quarterfinals.

There was a protracted competition between Naeher and Ashlyn Harris for the No. 1 spot — with questions all the while about whether coach Jill Ellis should have done more much earlier to groom a successor — but eventually Naeher emerged the winner.

Ellis has praised Naeher’s foot skills in particular, which make her a more active player in a unit that has tried to play the ball out of the back more, rather than just punt it downfield.

Solo’s presence, and her continued popularity with fans loyal to her, sometimes still hovers over the team, but the current goalkeepers on the roster — Naeher, Harris and Adrianna Franch — have become adept at ignoring it.

“There are a lot of great goalkeepers in the past who have pioneered the position, but we’re about moving forward,” Harris said. “Everyone will always have something to say, and that’s OK. We’re used to it.”

Grief clouds woman’s life 20 years after loss of baby My aunt had a stillborn baby 20 years ago.

At the time, I was a teenager. Ever since then she has lived a morbid lifestyle — like you’d see in a scary movie. After the first year, she DEAR ABBY threw a party with a cake for all of us, and wanted us to sing “Happy Birthday” to a baby that never lived.

When my grandfather died recently, she made sure the preacher announced that my grandfather also had another grandchild. I found out that when her cat died she kept it in the house for several days because she didn’t want to let it go.

It bothers us a lot, because she acts like she is the victim in life and tries to make people feel guilty for being happy. How do we talk to her?

Crystal In Nevada

JEANNE PHILLIPS

Your aunt should have sought grief counseling after she lost her baby. That she would throw a birthday party a year later and expect everyone to participate as if the child had lived is truly sad. Because you and your relatives feel she still hasn’t gotten beyond the tragedy, those closest to her should suggest she talk with a therapist now or join a support group.

That said, I am not sure her wish that her little angel be mentioned at your grandfather’s funeral was out of line. Although the baby was stillborn, I’m sure the loss was grieved by your grandfather as well as your aunt.

Our oldest son has had a girlfriend for almost two years. She’s a lovely, kind and quality person, the type you would want him to marry. The problem I’m having is that I have slipped and called her by the name of his former girlfriend. This happens sometimes during casual conversation, especially when I’m

Family Circus

not concentrating. I have tried to be careful because I don’t want to hurt her or my son’s feelings, but sadly, I have.

I know she has heard me at least a couple of times. I have no affinity for the former girlfriend. Abby, this is damaging my relationship with my son and his girlfriend although she is too classy to say a word.

What do I do?

Heartbroken In New England When it happens again — and it may — apologize, explain that it’s embarrassing, and you don’t know why it happens. Then THANK her for being as classy as she has been about it.

My brother-in-law is starting a business and has offered my husband a job he is wellqualified for. I think it’s a bad idea to mix family and business. I should mention that it’s my husband’s brother, and in the past when my husband has done odd jobs for him, he has had trouble getting paid for them. Do you agree with me that it’s a bad idea for my husband to work for his brother?

Not So Sure Working for a relative can pack a double whammy because of unresolved emotional baggage that can come with the job, but it’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes it works out very well. However, because your husband’s brother has a history of not paying his debts, I agree with you that in this case, it would be a bad idea.

Surgery is a valid treatment for obstructive sleep apnea My son, who is 30 years old, was recently diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea and currently uses a CPAP machine.

He says does not want to use this for the rest of his life, therefore, he has researched surgery to correct his OSA. Recently he consulted with a sleep expert, and now has TO YOUR surgery scheduled with that GOOD HEALTH doctor.

My son will have a septoplasty and a palate expansion before a more radical surgery in a year called MMA. My son feels that these surgeries will give him the longest lasting cure for his OSA. I am very concerned about all of these surgeries. I value your objective opinion and hope you can give me some reassurance that these surgeries are worth the pain.

DR. KEITH ROACH

Although CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure, which works by using air to keep the airway open) is the usual treatment for obstructive sleep apnea, surgery is another effective way to treat OSA. Surgery is most appropriate for those who wish a surgical solution (some people can’t stand the CPAP

machine), those who have a surgically correctable problem (see below), and those who are good candidates for surgery; younger age makes surgery seem more reasonable to me.

The specific surgery chosen depends on an individual’s unique anatomy.

Surgery on the uvula (yes, the dangling thing at the back of the throat), soft palate and pharynx is the most common surgery, but maxillomandibular advancement surgery (MMA) has been shown to be successful in several wellknown medical centers in the U.S., such as Mayo Clinic and Stanford. Success rates are high, and some studies have shown surgical cure of obstructive sleep apnea in over half of those who undergo the procedure.

Not knowing your son and not being a surgeon, I can’t give an objective opinion for him in particular, but I can say that in appropriate patients, surgical treatment of OSA is reasonable.

Horoscope

By Stella Wilder Born today, you are quick to dedicate yourself to causes that you deem worthy of your support, but there are times when this might expose you to those who would take advantage of you and deprive you of money, resources and reputation.

You mustn’t be so quick to say yes to those who come to you asking for help. Take the time to do your homework and decide, based on the evidence available to you, whether you want to lend your support to someone’s pet project. You are quite adept at assessing the importance of a given situation; you are not the kind to wonder or vacillate when it comes to making up your mind. You enjoy being connected to others through daily affairs, but again you must always guard against being taken advantage of by someone who sees you as an easy mark. Not everyone is as honest or honorable as you are.

You’re likely to have many supporters and admirers, but few close friends — and that’s just how you like it. You will mix and mingle with all sorts, work and play with anyone, but when it comes to true affection and attachment, you prefer to deal with a small circle you can trust to give and take freely and fairly.

Also born on this date are: Tom Jones, singer; Liam Neeson, actor; Dean Martin, singer and actor; Bear Grylls, survival expert and reality TV star; Kim Rhodes, actress; Anna Kournikova, tennis player; Paul Gaugin, painter; Jessica Tandy, actress.

To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide.

SATURDAY, JUNE 8 GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Something new is about to begin, and you must prepare yourself by dispensing with anything old that may be insidiously holding you back.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — There are many possibilities before you today, and what you choose will depend upon more than timing. State of mind is an issue.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You’ll want to promote yourself and your ideas more aggressively at this time. Make no mistake, however — you are still only human.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — The difference between what is real and what is only imagined may become blurred today. Do what you can to steer others in the right direction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Your perception of a certain event is likely to differ dramatically from the official version. Let others know what you think.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — What you have to say must be said directly today. Don’t let anyone intimidate you or make you think you have less to offer than you really do.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Someone else’s mistakes are likely to benefit you in ways that you will not immediately recognize. Later you’ll be more aware.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — An assignment you receive today needn’t be accepted immediately.

Take the time to assess its potential — and your own as well.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — No explanation is likely to be good enough today when you are facing those whom you have recently offended. Only an apology will suffice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Whether you are working indoors or playing outside, you’ll want to apply yourself in a manner that lets others know you mean business.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Someone is trying to derail your plans with a scheme that cannot hold water. You won’t have to wait long until the threat disappears.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Things are lining up in your favor today, but you will still have to prove yourself when the time comes. You know exactly how to do this.
