At first glance, the bottle opener Dan McFarlane displays to illustrate the new manufacturing process McFarlane Aviation plans for its Vinland plant doesn’t look much different from other metal bottle openers. It has the same bend near the business end as most openers that fit on key chains, and has a mouth that fits snuggly on the bottle cap. What sets it apart are the

numerous perforated raindropshaped holes in what McFarlane reveals is a titanium body. “This is probably the most over-engineered McFarlane bottle opener in existence,” he said. The holes are meant to show off its fabrication through the additive manufacturing process, the industry

Last Fourth of July weekend, Lawrence police received 264 fireworks-related calls and issued nine citations for violating the citywide fireworks ban. City leaders will take a look Tuesday at the 14-year-old ban, how it’s been complied with and whether there are enough resources to strengthen its enforcement. The discussion will come after an appeal CITY from a small group of COMMISSION Lawrence residents who are concerned with fireworks’ effects on local veterans. “Now, we have a lot of veterans who are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, current conflict veterans, and they deal with things when there are random explosions or other triggers,” said Brooklynne Mosley, a U.S. Air Force veteran and commander of VFW post 842 in Lawrence. “I don’t want to see more rules; I just want to see the rules they do have being enforced better. I don’t want people to feel like they’re not in a safe space.” U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs findings support the concern. A VA report from 2011 said noise from fireworks could cause a reaction in veterans with

Police reports show 24 use-of-force incidents during 2015 All but one case followed department policy By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

Last year, Lawrence police officers resorted to the use of force 24 times. In all but one of those instances police department policies were followed, an internal police review has determined.

The Lawrence Police Department released both its annual Taser and Use of Force reports for 2015 on April 29. Both reports briefly summarize each instance throughout the year when officers used forceful methods or a Taser. Between Jan. 1, 2015, and Dec. 31, 2015, 24 reports were submitted stemming

from 21 incidents, the reports state. The number of reports is higher than the number of incidents because of occasions when multiple officers used force in the same incident. While brief summaries of each use of force or Taser deployment are available to the public, the Use of Force Reports

ALICE F. DOWNS Alice F. Downs died on Saturday, April 30, 2016 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Visitation will be held from 4:30 – 6:30 p.m. Saturday, May 14, 2016 at WarrenMcElwain Mortuary in Lawrence. Celebration of life will be held at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, May 15, 2016 at First Christian Church. She was born in Shreveport, Louisiana on August 19, 1936, to Faye and William Edgar O’Daniel. Alice was passionate about her immediate and extended family. One of her last statements was to see her youngest granddaughter in her hospital room and say, “I love you, Photina.” Alice is survived by her husband, Cal, professor emeritus from KU; her son, Kevin Downs in Arlington, Virginia; daughter, Allyson Downs Adrian, soninlaw, Steve Adrian; granddaughters, Yazmine Adrian, Gretchen Adrian, Marcena Adrian, and Photina Adrian, all from Arlington, Virginia; and brother, Bill O’Daniel, Denver, Colorado and many other relatives in Louisiana and Texas. Alice and Cal were married in Geneva, Switzerland, with a second ceremony in Nice, France. They made their first home in Vicenza, Italy. Alice loved languages and cultures and adventure together they made many trips to the Orient, Europe, and Mideast; and their lives were enriched by the many friends they made while living in the UK, Austria, Australia, France, Italy, and Germany. The love of music permeated her entire life, and gave her soul a lift. She started playing piano at the age of 3. At 15, she won a piano contest and played with the New Orleans Symphony. In high school and college she studied with internationally renowned pianist Silvio Scionti, and played throughout Texas and Louisiana. After graduating from North Texas University in Piano, she studied for two years on a Fulbright Scholarship in Paris, France, with Jacques Fevrier, a student of Ravel. Returning to the USA, she earned an M.A. degree at Michigan State University, again studying with Silvio Scionti. It was there that she met her husband Cal while playing the Rachmaninoff Second Piano Concerto—it was love at first hearing. Living in Maryland, she studied with Miecesau Muntz, from Julliard and developed a close friendship with pianist Ann Shein. Through the years, Alice played solo concerts in the USA, France, Holland, Italy, Costa Rica, and Australia. as well as performing with Orchestras in Michigan, Illinois, Washington D.C., Louisiana, Kansas, and As a faculty Texas. member at KU for 29 years, Alice frequently collaborated with Edward Laut, Larry Maxey, Vince Gnojek, Rita Sloan, and Linda Maxey. She was excited to premier several pieces composed by John Pozdro. And a favorite memory was playing Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue both with Robert Foster and the KU Symphonic Band and later with Linda Maxey accompanying her on Alice’s final KU recital in 2003. She was passionate about teaching. Even in

college, she gave lessons to piano students in order to pay for her own lessons with her beloved Silvio Scionti. He was her great mentor in music and later in life she was thrilled to perform memorial concerts in his honor in Sicily at the invitation of the Italian Academy of Arts and Science and Letters. It was in Chicago, however, that she studied under Guy Duckworth who instilled in her a love of specific teaching methods and added that sense of discovery and dynamism to her teaching. Her methods were by her appreciated university students and The Emily Taylor Women’s Resource Center gave her an Outstanding Teacher Award at KU. In addition to teaching at KU, Alice also taught piano privately and was active in the Lawrence music community as a member of Sigma Alpha Iota, Federated Music Teachers, and Lawrence Music Club. As president of Friends of Music, she oversaw scholarships and helped start the Lawrence Civic Choir and the Lawrence Symphony. She and Janet Marquis founded Concerts for Young People which sponsored opera and classical music concerts for students of elementary school age. The operas included Hansel and Gretel, Magic Flute, Don Pasquale, and Cinderella. One of her proudest achievements was to commission John Pozdro and John Clifford to write a children’s opera, Malooley and the Fear Monster, which was performed throughout Kansas. A deeply spiritual person, Alice was an active teacher and participant in churches wherever she lived. She saw God’s goodness in people and was one of the most gracious and non judgmental people one could meet. Her insights enabled her to be an open and genuine friend and the family appreciated the loyalty that friends showered on her. Her faith and grace were the resources she drew on to enjoy 10 years of life following paralysis from a stroke which required 24 hour care. She lived her life with grace and charm and, despite the stroke, she lived the abundant life going to hear the Kansas City Symphony and celebrating good times with family and friends. Memorials are suggested for Medical Ministries International, the KU School of Music, or the Carl Preyer Scholarships by Lawrence Music Club and may be sent in care of WarrenMcElwain Mortuary.

Reports, the department’s internal reviewing committee found one that deviated from police policies. The incident was a car stop on Oct. 9, 2015, Khatib said. “The guy fled, he was trying to get away from the officer, finally turned around on the officer and the officer used his Taser,” he said. The incident deviates from police policy because the suspect posed no direct threat to the officer before the Taser was used, Khatib said. The incident violated only the department’s policies, not any laws, he added. “He had run away from the officer, struggled with the officer, turned around but wasn’t necessarily coming at the officer,” Khatib said. “From a strictly legal standpoint, as far as law, that’s acceptable. From a policy standpoint it’s not.” The suspect was not injured during the incident, Khatib said. And the officer was disciplined and re-educated on the department’s policies. Khatib would not say who the officer is or the nature of the discipline, citing personnel issues, but he did say the officer is still with the Lawrence Police Department. Aside from incidents involving a Taser and other uses of force, when an officer fires a gun a different line of scrutiny takes place, Khatib said. “Whenever there is a discharge of a firearm you’re going to get a much higher level of review,” he said. “So you’re going to have the Discharge of Firearm Review Board, you’re going to have the District Attorney’s Office look at it.” The Lawrence Police Department has not had an officer-involved shooting since June of 2014, Khatib said. In that incident, Lawrence Police Officer Skyler Richardson shot Zachary Ortiz, who was armed. The Officer-Involved Shooting Review Board has not reviewed the two-yearold incident because Ortiz has yet to face trial, he said. However, in July of 2014 the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office ruled the shooting was justified. In February 2015, Khatib said he revised the department’s Use of Force policy to combine several different policies and clarify some language. The changes came as a part of an internal police department conversation discussing increasing accountability, he said.

times, police baton a single time and police dog a single time. The cases in question involved criminal activity ranging from reckless driving and possession of a fake driver’s license to endangering a child and domestic battery, according to the reports. None of the individuals involved in the incidents filed a complaint against the department, the reports state. Once an officer uses force, he or she must complete a Use of Force Report, Khatib said. Each report is reviewed by the Use of Force Committee, which consists of one police captain, two sergeants, two officers and a detective. The two sergeants, officers and detective are all department trainers in use of force, Khatib said. “They’re the ones that have provided a lot of training to the officers and go to the schools and understand best use-offorce practices,” he said. Lawrence Police Capt. Anthony Brixius initially declined to provide the Journal-World with Use of Force reports filed in 2015. In his denial, Brixius cited a Kansas law stating that certain records are not subject to release if they are personnel records, criminal investigation records and notes, drafts or research data in the process of analysis. Max Kautsch, a Lawrence attorney who focuses on First Amendment rights and open government and who has represented the JournalWorld in various matters, said the department’s denial violates the Kansas Open Record Act. In the same Kansas law cited by Brixius, Kautsch said there is a statute stipulating that any private information shall be redacted and the censored versions of the records shall be released. “It’s an unreasonable application of KORA because the law says that redactable information can be redacted, but the rest has to be disclosed,” he said. “I just can’t imagine how every single word of these reports would fit either or all of those criteria. It just doesn’t make any sense.” After another request, Brixius later said redacted versions of the reports could be provided for a fee. Of the 24 Use of Force

SUNDAY CROSSWORD SOLUTION FOR MAY 8

In all, the policy didn’t change much, Khatib said, but it’s a good practice to examine important policies — like those addressing use of force — on a regular basis. “Obviously use of force is probably something we need to look at at least every year, at least every other year to make sure that we’re still doing best practices, we have a legal review of it to make sure it comports with any legal changes or responsibilities,” he said. When asked — because of the important nature of the department’s Use of Force policy — whether the Lawrence Police Department could benefit from community insight moving forward, Khatib said: “I think if you’re asking the question as far as a review board or a group of citizens that helped us, would help us, craft policy and procedures, absolutely, those are all win-win situations.” Because police use of force is so serious, Kautsch said it is important for the community to weigh in on such matters. “It involves the worst thing that can happen in a society, which is detention and death and imposition on liberty,” he said. Currently the Lawrence Police Department has the Citizens’ Advisory Board for Fair and Impartial Policing. And while Khatib said the board does look at Taser reports, its primary function is to address instances of racial profiling. When asked about another type of citizen review board to examine complaints filed against the police department, Khatib said there are many options to consider. One type of board might investigate instances of misconduct, another might review the department’s internal investigations and another might audit a select sampling of misconduct reports. Each of those options has both its advantages and disadvantages, Khatib said. Some options may contain board members unfamiliar with police practices, while others could be costly, time consuming or take careful planning to ensure that they don’t conflict with any local, state or federal laws. “If you look at ultimately whether I think the department needs more oversight, I think that answer is it just depends on what the community wants,” he said. — Public safety reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at 832-7284 or cswanson@ljworld.com.

Professor leaves legacy in studies of senior psychology By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Just as people do, Susan Kemper’s research focus has changed from children into elderly adults. Now, she’s passing it on to the next generation. Kemper is retiring after 38 years at Kansas University. She is the Roy A. Roberts Distinguished Professor of psychology, and also a research scientist for KU’s Life Span Institute specializing in gerontology. Kemper came to KU, straight out of graduate school, in 1978. She said her plan was to teach and do research on the psychology of language, with an emphasis on language development in children. Specifically, she was looking at how children learn to use grammar when they tell stories. Class discussions led Kemper and students to try the same experiment on older adults, starting with a student who interviewed grandparents in her neighborhood to see what kind of grammar constructions they used when telling stories. Although their stories were clear and engaging, analysis showed the older adults didn’t use the complex

SUSAN KEMPER, A ROY A. ROBERTS DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR OF PSYCHOLOGY, will be retiring at the end of the semester after 38 years at Kansas University.

“

We cannot wait for drug trials to come online … we need to be able to do something now.” — Susan Kemper, retiring professor grammar constructions that children did. “What happened to them? Where did they go?” Kemper said. “So I sort of changed gears from studying the kids to studying the older folks.” That was around 1980, Kemper said. As her own research in the area progressed, so did researchers’ interest in gerontology because people were living longer and doing so with good health. “People were sort of waking up to how interesting older adults were,” Kemper said.

Kemper was an “early pioneer” in the emerging field of cognitive aging, she said, and working to identify patterns seen in normal aging helped researchers then identify abnormal patterns. It turns out it’s normal for older adults to lose their complex grammar as they age — “It’s last learned, first lost,” Kemper said — but that happening too soon or too rapidly can prove an early warning sign of conditions such as Alzheimer’s. Kemper said she doesn’t plan to continue her research in retirement.

But she expects others in the field to continue moving it forward, and in more technologically advanced ways. Groups are working on ways to automate recording and transcription and to use robots to monitor speech deficiencies, Kemper said. Another trend is embedding such technology in “smart homes” for older adults, where built-in sensors can pick up early warning signs of conditions through problems with speech, gait or other activities. Perhaps most importantly, Kemper said she hopes her research leads to the development of behavioral and cognitive early interventions that could slow the onset of conditions. “That’s where we need to go,” Kemper said. “We cannot wait for drug trials to come online … we need to be able to do something now.” Kemper taught her last class at KU on Wednesday. In another example of things coming full circle, it was language development — the first class she taught her first fall at KU.

here was a lot of hall chatter, and more than a few tweets, during the Kansas Legislature’s wrap-up session that the House had voted on more than twice as many bills in those final five days as it had in the whole 68-day regular session. I don’t know if that’s exactly true, but I have tried to cobble together some figures on the number of bills actually passed by the Legislature and sent to the governor this year, and the results lend some credence to that claim. By my rough count, sifting through the journals of House and Senate, lawmakers did pass slightly more bills during the wrap-up session than they did in the regular session for a total of 127 bills for the entire 73-day session (by Senate President Susan Wagle’s count), or an average of about 1.7 bills per day. But what really catches the eye is the number that went through on that final marathon day that started around 12:30 p.m. last Sunday and lasted until 3:30 a.m. last Monday: 18 bills in that one day, or more than one per hour.

Motorcyclists injured in accident near Perry By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

Two Missouri motorcycle riders were transported to area hospitals following a three-vehicle accident Saturday on U.S. Highway 24 in Jefferson County. According to the Kansas Highway Patrol accident report, the accident occurred about 9 p.m.

Saturday 5 miles east of Perry. The report states that Sarah Nixon, 33, of Long Lane, Mo., was going east and went left of center on a 2011 HarleyDavidson while negotiating a curve on the highway and sideswiped a westbound 2006 Ford van driven by Roger D. Helm, 57, of Perry. Paul Nixon, 35, of Long Lane, Mo., riding on an eastbound 2014

Harley Davidson, then struck the first motorcycle from behind. Sarah Nixon was transported by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, according to the report, and Paul Nixon was flown by air ambulance to Kansas University Hospital in Kansas City, Kan. Both motorcyclists were wearing helmets.

In a news release issued by Jeremy Rodecap, fire chief of Jefferson County Fire District No. 3, Sarah Nixon’s injuries were described as “nonlife-threatening,” while those of Paul Nixon were deemed “life-threatening.” — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be reached at 832-7166 or ejones@ljworld.com.

Now, before getting too indignant about that, we should all probably admit that everybody procrastinates. In the news business, there’s a saying that if it weren’t for the last minute, nothing would ever get done. But many people have asked me why lawmakers always put everything off until the last minute, and the answer is actually fairly complicated. In the Legislature, procrastination isn’t just a matter of work habits. It’s also about strategy and leverage. “That’s when the powers that be feel they have the most leverage,” said Sen.

Lawrence sees more than a half-inch of rain Sunday Lawrence received just over a half-inch of rain Sunday, according to the National Weather Service in Topeka. Approximately .63 inch of rain fell as of 10 p.m. Sunday, beginning around noon and continuing through the afternoon with the heaviest

storms around 4 p.m. With Sunday’s rainfall, the Lawrence area has gotten about half its normal month-to-date precipitation, which is 1.28 inches. The year-to-date total is 7.88 inches, which is shy of the normal year-todate total of 10.44 inches,

according to AccuWeather. According to the NWS, strong to severe storms across portions of eastern Kansas are possible Monday. The main threats with these storms will be hail and damaging wind with a small possibility of tornadoes, and heavy rainfall

will be possible through Monday afternoon and into the evening. The Kansas River measured at 14.09 feet around 9 p.m. Sunday. At 15 feet, Burcham Park on the south side of the river, near Second and Indiana streets, begins to flood.

of testing and a lot of research and development.” Those startup costs coupled with the nearly $1 million price tag for each of the state-of-the art printers has the company looking for a partner to get the venture started. McFarlane said negotiations were ongoing with a couple of obvious candidates who have a stake in seeing the FAA certification process move forward. “We’re leveraging our existing engineering and quality control resources to get this off the ground,” he said. “Because we’re investing so much to get FAA certification and in infrastructure, we will be partnering with a machine manufacturer who sees the value of what we are doing. We’re going to be the one that gets it up and going for the broader aerospace industry.” The two 3-D printing machines the company will install have 12-inch cubic printing chambers, McFarlane said. The printing process can be lengthy, up to 10 minutes per part, and requires considerable advanced programing and engineering. “Where you get your best value in production is in making multiple pieces or high-value parts,” McFarlane said. Again, it is those holes in the bottle opener that reveal the 3-D printing’s promise in “topography optimization,” or obtaining maximum strength with minimum weight. The machines can be programed to print parts with weight-reducing holes or lattice-work structures on a much smaller scale than traditional milling or casting methods while retaining strength and stiffness. Because those features are integrated into a part’s manufacturing process, additive manufacturing turns on its head traditional industrial cost ratios.

“With traditional machining, the more complex and intricate a part is the more expensive it is to manufacture,” McFarlane said. “With this, the more complex a part is, the less expensive it is to make because there is less base metal used. “It’s also a very green technology. With milling, up to 60 percent of metal is waste or is recycled. This uses 99 percent of the base metal.” The process does have limitations, and parts may need a polishing finish applied by traditional methods, McFarlane said. That is one way the company’s existing operations will complement the new venture, he said. The continued growth of and demand for established product lines also created demand for the expansion. Shipping offices are among the current operations that will move into the new building, allowing more room for fabrication and providing additional office space for engineering and accounting in existing buildings, McFarlane said. The company grew from the aircraft maintenance business McFarlane’s father, Dave McFarlane, and his partner, Fred McClenahan, started in 1970 at Vinland Valley Aerodrome, which McFarlane still owns. The two men started fabricating frequently replaced seat rollers and washers for Cessnas, which were soon recognized as superior in design and durability to those then available. Airplanes are not part of modern disposable culture. Because of the high cost of new planes, there is a demand for parts to keep 40- and 50-year-old planes flying. In 1993, McFarlane and McClenahan started focusing on the parts business. The company currently manufactures or markets

for other companies an ever-expanding product line of more than 2,000 parts, which includes such things as O-rings, throttle and control cables and skins for wing flaps, rudders or ailerons. True to its tradition, McFarlane Aviation continues to improve those parts through design and materials, such as the replacement of fiberglass in one part with Kevlar. Growth has spurred past plant expansions in 1997, 2005 and 2011. The company her father founded with his name had nurtured success through a “slow and steady” approach to growth, said Cheryl Kurtz, McFarlane Aviation’s human resource director and controller. “We average adding five new employees a year,” she said. “We’re not the kind of company that hires 40 new people a year.” Those driving by the Vinland complex sometimes assume its size equates to a much larger workforce than the 68 full-time employees and about eight part-timers who work there, Kurtz said. Much of the interior space is devoted to storing parts, she explained. “We stock so much inventory because it is cost effective,” she said. Becoming a pioneer in a new 3-D printing manufacturing process might seem at odds with the company’s slow-and-steady approach, but McFarlane and Kurtz continually stressed that it complemented existing operations. Her father and the company had thoroughly considered the risks and opportunities of the move, Kurtz said. “Dave is a former crop duster,” she said. “That tells you the level of calculated risk he is capable of.”

Today, But there was another

dynamic this year that bogged the process down even more that has many lawmakers frustrated, and worried for the future if it continues. That was the utter reluctance for the last two years of House Speaker Ray Merrick, RStilwell, to allow any bill dealing with certain subjects to be fully debated and subject to amendments on the floor of the House because doing so would open them up to amendments that neither he nor Gov. Sam Brownback wanted to deal with. Specifically, Merrick has tried to avoid putting bills on the open floor dealing with health care and Medicaid, for fear of a Medicaid expansion bill. The same is true with taxes, for fear of an amendment to repeal all or part of the 2012 tax cuts. Although the House did vote on, and eventually rejected, a bill to repeal the most controversial of those tax cuts, the total exemption for certain kinds of business income, it’s important to note how that bill came out of a conference committee, even though it had never been considered by either chamber before, and it was put into a Senate bill so that, under rules in the Legislature, the House would have to vote first. Conference committee bills are not subject to amendment on the floor. They are always straight up or down votes. In fact, of all the House bills that passed the Legislature this year, many, if not most, were actually Senate bills, the result of

a gut-and-go maneuver in which the Senate put its bill into the shell of a House bill so that House members would only have the option of voting yes or no on the package as a whole. Bills are also held back until the final days, not because anyone has designs about the contents of the bill, but because they need the bill number so it can be used as a vehicle to carry something else. Perhaps the most glaring example of that was the final budget bill itself, Senate Bill 249, which actually began as a bill about purchasing and competitive bidding when it was introduced in February. After it passed the Senate, the House stripped out its contents and inserted a different bill dealing with the authority of state agencies to issue bonds. The Senate did not go along with that change to its bill, and so it was sent to a conference committee where it became a vehicle for an entirely new bill, the final state budget, a bill that was never the subject of any committee hearings or public testimony — not even on the provision reallocating cuts to state universities — and could not be amended on the floor of either the House or Senate. As the old saying goes, there are two things most people never want to watch being made: sausages and laws.

term for the use of 3-D printers to build parts following the instructions of a computer program. The opener was built as the printer laid down successive layers of laser-melted, powdered titanium, McFarlane said. About 100 yards from where the general manager of McFarlane Aviation was standing, the metal skin is going on the exterior of a 24,000-square-foot building. In July, some of McFarlane’s existing operations will expand into to half of the new building. A new sister company specializing in additive manufacturing, McFarlane AMS, will set up shop in the remaining half. “This technique complements what we do here,” he said. “But it is also our hope it will allow us to branch out and reach new customers in the aerospace industry.” McFarlane said the company has been studying additive manufacturing technology for about 18 months. The impetus was a NASA consultant he partnered with on projects while an aeronautical engineering student in college, he said. Despite the investment in a new building, don’t expect McFarlane AMS to begin printing out parts for NASA and aerospace customers with its completion. That won’t happen until the Federal Aviation Administration agrees the new parts are as safe as those manufactured with traditional processes. “The challenge is FAA certification,” McFarlane said. “It’s basically a new manufacturing process with not enough history of durability or reliability. We will be working closely with the FAA to certify those processes. It’s a lot

Sister may be cruel — forgive her anyway Dear Annie: I have suffered with lymphoma for 17 years, but praise God, I am doing well now. Ten years ago, my sister, ‘’June,’’ was tested to see if she could be a bone marrow donor. She was a perfect genetic match and bragged that she had the ‘’right stuff.’’ The donation wasn’t necessary at that time, but it was reassuring. June began calling me weekly to tell me her troubles with her cheating husband, her finances, her dog, etc. I was supportive and helpful. Last year, I was hospitalized with severe pneumonia, spent two weeks in intensive care, and was so weak I ended up in a wheelchair. June never once called or visited, nor did she return any of my calls. My oncologist informed me that

I desperately needed the bone marrow transplant or I might die. When I finally talked to June, she told me my illness was making her anxious. I asked if she could donate blood so that I could get ready for the bone marrow transplant. She laughed and said, ‘’I thought you were supposed to die last month.’’ She then told me that donating blood didn’t fit into her schedule, and would I please stop

Endearing moments in airports An Ellen DeGeneres production, the new series “Hello Goodbye” (10 p.m., Travel, TV-G) captures heartwarming moments at the arrival and departure gates of major airports. Those who tune in will see friends reunited, marriage proposals, chance encounters and family reunions involving travelers from every social strata and international culture. As a daytime host, DeGeneres has shown a penchant for finding the endearing qualities in odd situations. “ H e l l o Goodbye” yearns to discover the needle of intense emotional connection in the haystack of tedium that airports represent.

The “Independent Lens” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings) documentary “Peace Officer” chronicles one man’s crusade against police overreach. Over the past few years many people have begun to question the wisdom of an evermore militarized approach to policing. To some, the friendly cop on the beat has been replaced by menacing figures straight out of a war zone. Former Sheriff William J. “Dub” Lawrence seems like the very last person on Earth to protest police excesses. A former Marine, county sheriff and the founder of Utah’s first SWAT team, Lawrence has seen decades of police work. His change of heart arrived when dozens of officers descended on his son-in-law and turned a domestic incident into a massive siege, resulting in the young man’s death. With the meticulous care for detail that helped him investigate hundreds of crimes and even build his own airplanes, Lawrence focuses on the afternoon that changed his family’s life forever. “Peace Officer” is not only a movie with a message, but a harrowing character study that demonstrates how the blunt trauma of sudden violence can turn a kindly grandfather and disciplined straight-arrow into an obsessive dissident.

She said I had made no effort to understand that she was frightened, and the rest of her letter was nothing but cruel words. I realized then that she was never going to donate. I was fortunate to find a wonderful unrelated donor, had the transplant, and spent five months in the hospital. June just sent me a birthday gift.

Voting concerns With elections fast approaching, many unsettled issues still plague the Kansas voting system.

court document related to one of several legal challenges to the Kansas voter registration laws contends that the voting rolls in Kansas are in “chaos.” That description, which came from the American Civil Liberties Union, may not be an exaggeration. The status of the dual election system created by Secretary of State Kris Kobach— one for voters who registered with a state form and one for voters who used a federal form — remains in doubt. The seamless process that Kobach promised state legislators would transfer citizenship information automatically from the state’s Division of Motor Vehicles to the secretary of state has never been implemented. In the meantime, tens of thousands of potential Kansas voters have had their registrations placed “in suspense,” most because they don’t include proof-ofcitizenship documentation. With just three months to go before the August primary elections, the status of voting in Kansas does seem a bit chaotic. The Associated Press recently looked at various court cases and documents related to the Kansas election system. Key among those is the battle over the voting rights of Kansans who register using a federal form that, at least in most states, requires only that voters sign a sworn statement that they are citizens. Based on an earlier ruling that Kansas couldn’t alter the federal form to conform with the state’s proof-ofcitizenship law, Kobach created a dual election system that allowed people who filed with the federal form to vote only in presidential and congressional elections. In January, a Shawnee County judge ruled that Kobach had no right to bar voters registered with the federal form from voting in local and state elections. Two weeks later, the new executive director of the U.S. Elections Commission — without consulting the commissioners — decided to require proof of citizenship on federal voter registration forms in Kansas. That action also is being challenged in court. Is everyone keeping up? Also of interest is the number of people whose registrations are being held up because they don’t include citizenship proof. Court documents provided a snapshot of how that system is working. More than 22,000 people submitted voter registration applications between Feb. 1 and Feb. 21, but only 7,444 of those included proof of citizenship. The rest went on the “in suspense” list. Those voters will have 90 days to provide citizenship proof before their applications are tossed out. Kobach and others point to how easy it is to complete a registration by emailing a copy of a birth certificate or passport to the secretary of state. That process, however, would have been even easier if the system to transfer information from driver’s license offices was in place. The proof-of-citizenship law was promoted as necessary to address a problem with illegal voting in Kansas. Since last year, when he obtained the power to prosecute such cases on his own, Kobach has pursued a handful of cases involving qualified voters who voted in more than one location. None of the cases have related to non-citizens attempting to register or vote. This year, Kansans will fill all of the seats in the Kansas Legislature and elect four U.S. House members and one U.S. senator. They also will select county officials and help elect a new U.S. president. These are important elections that demand maximum attention and participation, and it would be tragic if the confusion surrounding Kansas voting laws results in reduced participation by Kansas voters.

Campaign can clarify foreign policy Washington — By questioning the fundamentals of America’s global role, Donald Trump has given Hillary Clinton a chance to lift her game — by explaining why continued international engagement is in America’s interest and the world’s. If Clinton can’t counter Trump’s “America first” rhetoric, and make the case that U.S. leadership is still crucial for our security, she won’t be a strong president. And she won’t have public support for the policies needed to rebuild American credibility. Trump’s critics sometimes argue that his neo-isolationist views are so extreme and dangerous that they shouldn’t have a platform. But the polls make clear that many Americans agree with him. The questions he’s raising about unsuccessful foreign wars and ungrateful allies deserve good answers. A real debate about America’s role abroad would be one of the benefits of this campaign, lifting it, at least partially, out of the rancorous mudslinging that’s ahead. Trump caricatures America’s alliances in Europe and Asia; Clinton needs to explain why they matter. We won’t know officially until July if Trump and Clinton will be the nominees, but it certainly looks that way now. This matchup gets sneers from many commentators, but it would be a good test for both. Mr. Reality Television will meet re-

“

Trump caricatures America’s alliances in Europe and Asia; Clinton needs to explain why they matter.” ality. The author of “Hard Choices” will have to show she can make them, and explain them to the country. The great election campaigns in American history — think 1860, 1932, 1940 — came at inflection points for the country. The nation faced existential crises, and the public was sharply divided. The elections clarified choices and made good leaders better. Abraham Lincoln won a four-way race in 1860 on an anti-slavery platform that helped trigger Secession; Franklin Roosevelt won in 1932 with a mandate for what became the New Deal; his triumph in 1940 over Wendell Willkie was a repudiation of the isolationist movement and moved the nation toward eventual war with Germany and Japan. The election of 2016 is

a similar fork in the road. Trump, the insurgent candidate, is challenging many of the foreign policy assumptions that have prevailed since 1945. He thinks NATO is too expensive and that Japan and South Korea should defend themselves, with nuclear weapons, if necessary. Trump’s venomous rhetoric about Mexicans and Muslims obscures the core of his message — and its appeal for many Americans who are tired of paying the bills for others’ security. Many commentators savaged Trump’s April 27 foreign policy speech, in effect likening it to putting lipstick on a pig, but he made five serious arguments: America’s resources are overextended; U.S. allies aren’t paying their fair share for defense; America’s friends think they can’t depend on us; rivals no longer respect us; and America lacks clear foreign policy goals. Take the question of NATO: It’s an unfortunate fact that support for the trans-Atlantic alliance is gradually eroding in the United States. A poll last year by the Pew Research Center showed that just 49 percent of Americans had a favorable view of NATO, compared with 53 percent in 2009. That’s why Trump’s diatribes resonate with his neo-isolationist base. Clinton needs to answer this critique directly. She needs to explain why America has a stake in a messy world. She needs to offer a

clear explanation of how she would restore the credibility of American power without entangling the country in unwinnable new conflicts. She’s seen as more willing to use military force than President Obama, but what would that mean in Syria, Iraq, Ukraine and the South China Sea? One reason Clinton should welcome the bruising campaign ahead is that if she can rebut Trump, she has a better chance to be the strong president that America and the world need. A Pew poll back in January found that just 35 percent of the public thought Clinton would be a “good” or “great” president. Trump’s number was worse, but that shouldn’t be reassuring. Clinton doesn’t just need to win; she needs to learn to be great. Bob Gates, the former defense secretary, put the matter bluntly in accepting an Atlantic Council award here Tuesday. “Contrary to the views of some politicians, continuing American global leadership is in our own economic, political, and security interest. ... America turning inward not only will make the world more dangerous for others, but also for us.” Clinton’s challenge is to convey this message in a way that connects with the voters. If she can do that, she’ll probably win — but, more important, she’ll be better able to lead the country as president. — David Ignatius is a columnist Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 9, 1916:  years “Arthur Wilson, ago Belle Johnson IN 1916 and Hattie Wilson were arrested yesterday afternoon on the charge of larceny just as they were about to leave Lawrence on the Santa Fe train No. 14. … The three people arrested had been rooming at the home of Mrs. Jackson in the 1200 block on New Jersey street. Mrs. Jackson left her home yesterday afternoon and when she had gone the trio packed up some of her belongings in suitcases…” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

First dreams not the last word for grads By Barry Glassner and Morton Schapiro Los Angeles Times

In countless commencement speeches at high schools and colleges in the coming weeks, graduates will be advised to chase their dreams, pursue their passions and settle for nothing less. That is terrible advice. Comedian and TV host Stephen Colbert offered wiser counsel during a graduation speech at his alma mater, Northwestern University, a few years ago. Recalling that he once aspired to perform Shakespeare in the street while living in a barren loft apartment, he said he has no regrets that things turned out differently. “If we’d all stuck with our first dream,” noted Colbert, “the world would be overrun with cowboys and princesses.” Second or third dreams — the ones that college freshmen bring to campus — are seldom much better. In some cases, this is obvious to most everyone except the dreamer: the pre-med student who wants to cure cancer but falls asleep in his biochem class; the aspiring diva who ignores her C in music (as well as her A in physics). But even when an 18- or 22-yearold’s passion for a particular vocation is grounded in impressive achievements and serious reflection, it’s like other relationships at that age. To give up immediately might be a mistake, but wedding oneself to it is a bigger mistake still. Better to stay open to new ideas and career possibilities. One of us was editor of his high school newspaper, president of a regional as-

Soon-to-be graduates who have no idea what they want to be when they grow up need not fret.”

sociation for aspiring journalists and founder of a national newsmagazine before arriving at college as a journalism major. By his junior year, he was well on his way to his dream career when a sociology professor recognized that he had other interests and talents as well. After a series of conversations with the professor and enjoying several courses outside his major, he decided to attend graduate school in sociology. The other one of us entered college after an educational journey that at best could be described as unfocused and uneventful. But after sitting in two poetry classes with a brilliant teacher who made the subject seem to be the most important thing in the world, he decided that he wanted to become, of all things, a professor. After strongly considering graduate school in art history, his love of public policy brought him at the last minute to economics. Even in graduate school — let alone college — neither of us imagined ending up in our current positions. Who dreams of becoming a college president? But after many years as full-time teachers and researchers, compelling opportunities presented themselves and we were attracted to what some faculty members call the dark side, the world of university administration. College students never consider many potentially rewarding vocations,

either because they’re not glamorous enough to draw their attention, or because they do not yet exist. Any wouldbe Steve Jobs would be well advised to recall that in 1972, when Jobs graduated from high school, no one aspired to head a company that makes pocket telephones that connect to something called an Internet. Young people should also take note of Jobs’ oft-cited remark that had he not sat in on a calligraphy course in college, the Mac would not have its extraordinary typefaces. A single-minded focus on a particular profession during college might increase your odds of a home run in the first-job market or the graduate school admissions game, but it reduces your ability to respond to the many curveballs thrown at you over the course of your working and personal life. Soon-to-be graduates who have no idea what they want to be when they grow up need not fret. And those who think they know their life plan at the age of 22 would be well advised to recognize that they are still developing as human beings and that their visions about what would make for a satisfying life might soon be very different than what they imagine today. A word for parents who find themselves in bleachers listening to bromides about following one’s dreams: You didn’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys. Why would you want their latest ambition to be their last? — Barry Glassner is president and professor of sociology at Lewis & Clark College. Morton Schapiro is president and professor of economics at Northwestern University. They wrote this for the Los Angeles Times.

In Tampa Bay, Fla., a tanker rammed a bridge in a blinding thunderstorm during the early morning hours of May 9, 1980.

calls received in 2015, officers responded and couldn’t confirm fireworks had been shot off. “This would usually be the result of the officer being dispatched to the area after the call had been holding for some time, and the reported activity was no longer taking place,” Khatib wrote. Most of those breaking the ban are minors, Khatib continued, and officers can’t issue citations to them. Officers can warn minors; confiscate the fireworks; or take them to the Juvenile Detention Center for a full offense and arrest report. According to data provided by Khatib, Lawrence officers decreased the number of citations given in 2015 from 44 to 9, but increased the number of fireworks confiscated.

There were 15 instances of confiscation in 2014 and 45 in 2015. Lawrence police could do better at enforcing the ban, Khatib said in the memo, but it would “likely require a dedication of significant resources.” Khatib suggested more public awareness and education about the ban or working with Douglas County leaders to require fireworks stands locate farther from Lawrence. He also suggested a countywide ban on fireworks sales “may alleviate some of the confusion.” Fireworks are permitted in Douglas County, outside of Lawrence, during certain hours from July 1 to July 4 every year. Henderson said she doesn’t expect the City Commission to make a decision Tuesday on the future of fireworks enforcement. But she does want to get the conversation started. “Let’s just discuss this and come up with a plan to find a solution, to try,” Henderson said. “Let’s see what we can do.”

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, eliciting, in some cases, anxiety attacks and flashbacks. A movement started a few years ago of veterans putting signs in their yards, asking their neighbors to be mindful of fireworks’ effects. Lawrence resident Melinda Henderson first brought up the issue to city commissioners in 2013. That year, she rode along with a police officer on July 4, when 44 citations were issued. From 2008 to 2012, there had been only one to four citations issued each year. In a memo to the city, Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib explained enforcement is difficult for various reasons: offenders are often gone by the time an officer arrives, and officers must handle an increase in other types of crimes, including fights, alcohol offenses and domestic disturbances, over the holiday weekend.

Lawrence Police Chief Tarik Khatib says the department could do better at enforcing the citywide fireworks ban, but to do so would likely require significant resources.

Now hiring: Trump needs running mate Experience may not be a must, but No. 2 better be loyal Rick Hampson @rickhampson USA TODAY

Donald Trump, famous for firing people, now has to make his most important hire — a running mate on the Republican presidential ticket. Trump says he doesn’t know who he’ll choose, but a look at his career as real estate developer, reality TV host and political candidate gives some clues as to how he’ll make his decision and what type of person he might tap. Although his campaign has yet to establish a selection committee — except to say Ben Carson would be on it — Trump says he wants an experienced politician who can help him with Congress,

which doesn’t narrow things down much. What is clear is that Trump usually hires by gut, not committee. He values capability above experience, aggressiveness above credentials and loyalty above all. Unlike many candid bosses, he accepts candor from employees. If you’re good-looking, that’s good. If you’re family, that’s best. Trump isn’t appointing a construction manager or anointing an Apprentice winner. “This is a whole new process at a whole new level,” says Wayne Barrett, a former Village Voice reporter who has investigated Trump’s business deals. “He has an eye for business talent. Whether he has one for political talent is another question.” Michael D’Antonio, author of a Trump biography, Never Enough, wonders how Trump will reach his decision: “He’d probably be best served by a sober, deliberative process, but when has he ever

had to hire someone who mattered this much?” Here are the types of people Trump traditionally likes to hire: NOVICES

Trump takes chances on unknowns. Matthew Calamari, the Trump Organization COO, was working security at the U.S. Open tennis tournament in 1981 when Trump spotted him evicting some hecklers and hired him to handle his own security. Such hires are less expensive and more loyal, D’Antonio says: “He doesn’t require first-tier people. I think he’s kind of uncomfortable with them. If he can pluck you from a less prominent place and pay you well, he prefers that.” Trump’s original campaign staff, which helped pull off one of the biggest upsets in U.S. political history, consisted of “people who v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

VA’s new watchdog pledges more transparency on care Missing, delayed reports from agency raise red flags

Donovan Slack @donovanslack USA TODAY

WASHINGTON The new inspector general at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is hoping to quickly repair the office’s image after nearly two years of criticism for cursory investigations and secrecy. Michael Missal, who began work May 2, said he plans to reach out to veterans’ groups, Congress and others to let them know his door is open and he plans to be more transparent. “I feel very strongly that the

public has a right to know the work of the VA IG’s office,” Missal told USA TODAY in an exclusive interview, his first since taking the job. The inspector general is an independent authority responsible under federal law for rooting out fraud and mismanagement at the VA and keeping Congress — and therefore, the public — “fully and currently” informed. But USA TODAY investigations found that his predecessors failed to release the findings of 140 probes of VA health care and sat on the results of 77 wait-time investigations for months. In one case, an investigation

Five months later, a 35-year old Marine Corps veteran, Jason Simcakoski, died from mixed drug toxicity as a patient there after doctors added another opiate to the 14 drugs he already was prescribed. Missal said he plans to look into that case and why the report wasn’t released. Missal now is only able to conduct comprehensive investigations of one of the roughly 50 complaints about poor veteran health care that it gets each week, congressional testimony shows.

Ride services could use a lift v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Uber said that since starting operations in Austin in October 2014, it has signed up 10,000 drivers, and 500,000 riders have opened its app to request a pickup. Rival Lyft, which, like Uber, is based in California’s Silicon Valley, said in a statement, “The rules passed by the City Council don’t allow true ride-sharing to operate.” Lyft said it hopes its “pause” in operations will show it is taking a stand in defense of app-based ridesharing. Uber and Lyft spent about $8 million on the campaign leading up to Saturday’s vote, in which the measure to overturn rules adopted by the city was defeated by a 56% margin. Long among the nation’s top cities for tech, Austin is an unusual place for a dispute involving industry disrupters to play out. The state capital is home to the SXSW festival, which marries music and tech innovations. Dan Driscoll, 33, a tech entrepreneur who splits his time between Austin and Boston, predicted that the absence of ride-hailing could take a bite out of Austin’s nightlife if fewer people go out or more people drive drunk. “Austin is a town where the weekend runs from almost Wednesday until Sunday afternoon,” he said. “The reality is that people don’t take cabs because logistically, they’re a nightmare. They don’t show up when you call them.” Driscoll drove for Uber and Lyft for about a year. The fares helped him underwrite a start-up, he said. The ride-hailing system “was never broken” and fingerprinting won’t necessarily improve safety, he said. When Uber and Lyft began operations, they were allowed to self-regulate. In December, the City Council adopted rules that included requiring fingerprinting of drivers, which drew strong objections from both companies as being unnecessary because of their own background checks. Uber says it is threatening to pull out of Houston, which requires fingerprinting. Uber notes that other cities, such as Toronto and Miami, have passed ridesharing laws that don’t require fingerprints. Uber and Lyft indicated they are open to returning to Austin if the rules are changed. Jason Stanford, spokesman for Mayor Steve Adler, said the mayor has been clear that “he wants Uber and Lyft to stay, and they’re welcome to the table to try and figure this out. We’re a better town with them in it.” Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

TRUMP ISN’T WORRIED BY OPPOSITION WITHIN GOP New Republican voters will make up for detractors, he says David Jackson USA TODAY

Donald Trump is shrugging off the refusal of some Republican leaders to endorse him, saying most of the party will back his nomination and new voters will compensate for the rest. “Look, I’m going to get millions and millions of votes more than the Republicans would have gotten,” Trump said an interview Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press. Trump was addressing questions raised by House Speaker Paul Ryan, who is scheduled to meet with the presumptive presidential nominee on Thursday after saying last week that he wasn’t yet prepared to back the New York billionaire. In an interview on ABC’s This Week, Trump said he is a “very different” kind of candidate, and party unity may not be as big a factor. “I think it would be better if it were unified,” Trump said, adding that “I don’t think it actually has to be unified” in the more traditional sense. “It’s not called the Conservative Party,” he told ABC. “This is called the Republican Party.” While Ryan has said he is not yet ready to endorse Trump because of doubts about his conservatism, other party members have flatly come out against the nominee-in-waiting. That group

Donald Trump says the Republican Party doesn’t necessarily have to be unified behind his candidacy. includes 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney as well as former 2016 GOP hopefuls Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham. They cited

issues from Trump’s abrasive language to his comments about women and Hispanics. Trump lacks the “temper-

ament or strength of character” to be president, Bush wrote in a Facebook post on Friday. Bush’s brother and father, former presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush, have said they had no plans to endorse, while Romney has denounced the New York businessman as a “phony” and a “fraud.” In his NBC interview, Trump said Romney is “ungrateful” for his support in 2012, and that the former Massachusetts governor “choked” on his chance to beat President Obama. Trump said that Bush and Graham are angry that he beat them during the nomination fight, and he noted that both once backed a pledge to support the nominee. The presumptive Republican nominee said he was “blindsided” by Ryan’s reluctance to endorse, saying he thought he had a good relationship with the House speaker. Ryan told CNN he wants to back the nominee, but “I’m not there right now.” Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, blasted the House speaker, saying on CNN that she’ll support Ryan’s challenger, Paul Nehlen, in the Wisconsin primary for his seat. “I think Paul Ryan is soon to be ‘Cantored,’ as in Eric Cantor,” Palin said in an interview broadcast Sunday on State of the Union. Cantor was the Republican House majority leader who was upset in a 2014 primary in Virginia by Dave Brat. Contributing: Tom Vanden Brook

would never have been hired to do what they’re doing by a campaign that was sane,” Stuart Stevens, strategist for Mitt Romney in 2012, told The Hill this year. Corey Lewandowski, the campaign manager, had never run a successful statewide race. Hope Hicks, a spokeswoman, was doing Trump corporate PR and had never worked for a political campaign. That’s fine with Trump. “He wants diamonds in the rough,” says Gwenda Blair, a biographer. WOMEN

Trump has hired many female executives. They include Norma Foerderer, who was his top assistant, and Barbara Res, construction manager for Trump Tower. Naming a woman head of a big construction project was unheard of in 1980. Res says that when Trump hired her, he told her, “Men are better than women, but a good woman is better than 10 men.” His logic: A woman who has succeeded in a sexist system had to be outstanding. INSIDERS

Trump likes to hire and promote people he knows. “They don’t have drug problems, they don’t have alcohol problems,” he told Bloomberg last year. “I would rather take guys at a lower level and move them up than hire people that you have no idea who they are.” Calamari rose from security chief to COO. Foerderer, hired as a secretary, became executive vice president. Trump’s social media wizard, Justin McConney, is the son of the Trump Organization controller and has been with Trump companies since 2009. A small San Antonio firm that’s worked for Trump since 2011 was hired to build the campaign website. Trump took a liking to Res after he saw the 31-year-old engineer stand up to an architect at a meeting on Trump’s first big project, the conversion of the old Commodore Hotel at Grand Central Terminal into a Hyatt. Next thing she knew, she was sitting in his living room listening to his plans for Trump Tower. RELATIVES

Trump always has relied on family. Ivana, his first wife, helped manage his Atlantic City casinos and ran the Plaza Hotel. Their children — Ivanka, Donald Jr. and Eric — largely run the Trump Organization. Most corporate websites have biographies of key managers. The Trump Organization’s doesn’t

In the front row are Kai Trump, left, and Donald Trump III, children of Donald Trump Jr. mention anyone whose last name isn’t Trump. TRUTH-TELLERS

Ronald Kessler, a journalist who met Trump while working on a book about Palm Beach, says he “expects candor in people he hires. It’s the one thing that really stands out.’’ Up to a point. Once a decision has been made, Blair notes, Trump expects complete loyalty — “someone who’ll jump when he says jump.” ADVERSARIES

“I often hire people that were on the opposing side of a deal that I respect,” Trump told Newsday in 1989. In the early ’80s, he sued New York City Housing Commissioner Anthony Gliedman personally for blocking a $25 million tax abatement for Trump Tower. In 1986, after a lunch in Little Italy, Gliedman agreed to join the Trump Organization and leave the administration of Mayor Ed Koch. LOOKERS

Trump cares about a prospective hire’s hairstyle, weight and attire. The winning Apprentice contestant often was the best-looking. Hicks, the spokeswoman, is a former model. For Trump, attractive equals successful, D’Antonio says: “It’s very important that someone look the part.” CHARACTERS … AS IN STORIES

Trump likes hires with a good back story. Gliedman’s showed Trump’s willingness to bury the hatchet. Res’ showed his focus on talent.

Hope Hicks

Trump “believes in the power of story,” D’Antonio says, “especially a surprising one.” HOW DOES HE DO IT?

As instructive as who Trump has hired over the years is how: instinctively, quickly, personally. He doesn’t rely on résumés or references. “He believes in nothing more than he believes in his gut,” D’Antonio says. Res says it’s simple: “He sees people, he likes ’em, he hires ’em.” In 1981, Trump hired Foerderer, who had no experience in the private sector, let alone real estate, based on a meeting that lasted five minutes. She served him for more than two decades. For a presidential nominee choosing a running mate, Trump’s hiring patterns and practices have some pros and many cons. He can’t pick a relative, an employee or a novice. Good looks don’t count. Trump’s limited number of politician supporters don’t offer much gravitas, except possibly Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala. A methodical vetting could be essential if Trump doesn’t want a running mate who will blow up in his face. “Intuitively is not how it’s done

anymore,” says Joel Goldstein, a St. Louis University Law School expert on the vice presidency. “And when it was, the people involved had served together and knew each other very well.” Res says, “He will listen to his advisers. There’s too much at stake not to.” D’Antonio agrees but wonders if Trump is too much like a rebellious teenager: “If he can do what everyone says he shouldn’t and get away with it, he wants to do it.” Potential vice presidential candidates could be leery of going down with Trump’s pirate ship or serving under such a notorious micromanager and spotlight hog. While Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton leads in general election polls, the kind of hiring “good story” Trump likes might come in handy — like Marco Rubio, whom Trump relentlessly derided as “Little Marco,” joining the ticket. Don’t scoff, D’Antonio says: “Trump is the most manipulative person in the world. He’s capable of persuading almost anyone, who’s even a bit receptive, to join his ticket.” Kessler says Trump himself doesn’t hold grudges. In Palm Beach, for example, he made peace with private clubs who opposed his conversion of his Mara-Lago estate into one. And he’s reached a rapprochement with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly, with whom he’s feuded. As far as Kessler is concerned, the point is moot — “I’m sure he’s already decided in his mind who it will be.” Kessler’s sure it’s Rubio. And he’s sure Trump can hire him.

Israel’s Memorial Day honors Americans, too Holiday mixes hope and sorrow, healing along with grieving Michele Chabin

Special for USA TODAY

Julie Landau and his family will gather on Wednesday at the grave of his son, Yair, an Israeli soldier killed in action in 1982 at age 23. Two weeks before Americans mark their own Memorial Day, people in Israel will mark Memorial Day. Those being remembered include 350 North Americans or their children and spouses, seven more than last year, according to the Association of Americans and MICHELE CHABIN Canadians in Julie Landau Israel. Landau, who moved from Brooklyn, N.Y., to Jerusalem in 1969, is one of the hundreds of bereaved American and Canadian citizens whose loved ones died in the service of Israel’s military or in Israel-based terror attacks. Restaurants and places of entertainment will close, hundreds of thousands will flock to military cemeteries and people all over the country will stand for a moment of silence as two air-raid sirens wail. “In Israel, Memorial Day is almost comforting,” Landau said. “The military cemeteries are so crowded you can barely stand. Everyone, the bereaved and nonbereaved, recognizes the memory of those who fell.” Some of the country’s 23,000 fallen soldiers were non-Israeli volunteers, including non-Jews, according to Donna Grushka, an AACI volunteer who co-runs the organization’s annual memorial ceremony. JERUSALEM

ABIR SULTAN, EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

Israeli soldiers place flags on graves Sunday at the Mount Herzl military cemetery in Jerusalem. “There were volunteers who fought in Israel’s War of Independence in 1948. Some had fought in Europe during World War II and were influenced by what they saw — the concentration camps, the survivors, the refugees.” One of them is David “Micky” Marcus, a Jewish U.S. Army colonel who, along with hundreds of other North American Machal soldiers, served in Europe before volunteering to train and fight alongside Israel’s fledgling army as it battled invading Arab armies. Marcus, whose service to Israel is portrayed in the film Cast a Giant Shadow, was killed by friendly fire. To this day, Machal, the IDF’s volunteer program, allows nonIsraelis and Israeli expatriates to serve in combat, usually for 18 months. The vast majority are “lone soldiers,” the designation the IDF gives to 6,000 soldiers whose parents do not live in Israel. Roughly 1,000 hail from the

At least two of the program’s Americans, Max Steinberg of Woodland Hills, Calif., and Sean Carmeli of South Padre Island, Texas, were among the Israeli soldiers killed during Israel’s 2014 war with Hamas, the militant

group that governs Gaza. The fact that Israeli Memorial Day includes terror victims is comforting to Zahava Gilmore, a New Jersey native who moved to Israel in 1970. Her son Esh Kodesh Gilmore, a 25-year-old AmericanIsraeli security guard, was mur-

dered by a Palestinian in 2000. Gilmore said Memorial Day in Israel is “draining” because it is so all-encompassing, “but it’s also very healing.” Although her son was not an active-duty soldier at the time of his death, on Memorial Day, Gilmore makes a point of going to the military cemetery in Jerusalem where Yair Landau is buried. Her son is not buried there because he was not on active duty. Yet she goes because “I’m with others in my situation,” she said. “The most moving part of the ceremony is singing (Israel’s national anthem) Hatikva. It’s a song about the continuation of our people. The tragedy ends with hope, not just sorrow.” Risa Rotman, the Canadianborn widow of terror victim Chaim (Howard) Rotman, also a Canadian, said she is torn about what to do during her first year of Memorial Day bereavement. In November 2014, Palestinians armed with a gun, axes and meat cleavers attacked her husband and killed four other worshipers as well as a policeman in a Jerusalem synagogue. Rotman, the father of 11, died nearly a year later. “We are ultra-Orthodox Jews and ultra-Orthodox Jews mourn the dead on Tisha B’Av, a Jewish fast day that commemorates the destruction of the ancient Jewish Temples,” Rotman explained. “But my husband was a government employee, and his colleagues are planning to honor his life on Memorial Day. I will likely attend because it’s important to them and I want to respect their sensibilities.” For New Yorker Sherri Mandell, an American-Israeli whose son Koby Mandell, 13, was murdered in 2001, Memorial Day is a day “when other people remember. It’s not my Memorial Day. It’s like having one day when everything stops, but we live with our son’s death all the time. Nobody can know what it’s like to lose a child to terror or war unless they have lived it. No one understands the ‘foreverness.’ ” Mandell and her husband, Seth, created the Koby Mandell Foundation, which runs programs for bereaved families. Her son’s death “has, if anything, made us Israeli,” she said. “Koby is buried here. We’re not going to leave him or bring his body back to America. It’s planted us here.”

Bauders was commissioned as an engineer in May 2013 after graduating from the University of Portland. The 176th specializes in construction, Siemandel said.

North Korea will not deploy nuclear weapons unless the communist nation’s enemies use them first and will try to normalize relations with “hostile” countries, leader Kim Jong Un revealed Sunday. “As a responsible nuclear weapons state, our republic will not use a nuclear weapon unless its sovereignty is encroached upon by any aggressive hostile forces with nukes,” Kim said at the Workers’ Party of Korea congress in Pyongyang, according to the state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA). Kim added that the North “will faithfully fulfill its obligation for non-proliferation and strive for the global denuclearization.” Kim warned the U.S. to stay out of Korean affairs but offered to enter talks with South Korea aimed at easing tensions on the peninsula. Kim opened the first formal gathering of his party in more than three decades on Friday by celebrating the “great success” of his nuclear weapons program. The congress is viewed as Kim’s formal coronation as leader of the nation of 25 million people, most of whom live in poverty. The congress also has served as a launch for his five-year plan to improve the battered economy by emphasizing increased agricultural and manufacturing production and involvement in the global economy.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Friday opened 7th Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea, the first such gathering since 1980, in Pyongyang.

Kim has offered to enter talks with South Korea to ease tensions with its neighbor but has warned the U.S. it is not welcome. ity resources using nuclear power plants, although the North does not have nuclear power plants. “They went from guns and steel to nukes and butter,” James Person, who coordinates the Center for Korean History and Public Policy at the Washington-based Wilson Center, recently told USA TODAY. “They have the nukes, we can hope they decide to start concentrating on the butter.” Kim’s pledge of restraint comes at a time when the North continues to conduct nuclear weapon tests. In January, North Korea carried out its fourth nuclear test in a decade. When a rocket launch in February drew worldwide criticism as a missile test violation, intensified U.N. sanctions quickly followed. Those sanctions continue to hamstring Pyongyang’s economic efforts. Kim repeatedly claimed tri-

umph over the U.S., crediting the “heroic struggle” of Koreans and his political party for “victory after victory in the protracted fierce confrontation with the imperialists and the U.S.” But he pledged to “improve and normalize the relations with those countries which respect the sovereignty of (North Korea) and are friendly towards it.” Still, Kim said the North had no plans to discard its policy of developing nuclear weapons. The North’s Korean Central Television showed Kim’s speech Sunday, although it probably was delivered the previous day, the Associated Press reported. The party gathering is the first since 1980 and the first for Kim, who assumed power in 2011 following the death of his father Kim Jong Il. Kim spoke of reunification with the South, but South Korean officials remain wary of Kim’s intentions to remain a nuclear state, the South’s Yonhap news agency reported. North Korea is among the world’s most repressive and reclusive states and worst violators of human rights, according to the U.S. State Department and Human Rights Watch.

NEW YORK You may already be on a first-name basis with Siri, Cortana, Google or Alexa, the Fab Four of voice-activated digital assistants. Now that relationship is expanding from one device (typically a smartphone) to many. The major tech companies are putting these digital assistants, powered by artificial intelligence algorithms and activated by voice, into multiple products. It’s a strategic thrust to enmesh you further in their ecosystems, deepening and potentially adding sources of revenue. And the field is about to get a new name, with the founders of Siri poised to unleash an AIdriven virtual assistant called Viv at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference in Brooklyn this week. “Speech is no longer a parlor trick, and (it’s) more useful day to day,” said Scott Huffman, Google vice president of engineering for search. What’s becoming loud and clear is that a machine’s ability to recognize and process speech will be integral to the “Internet of Things” universe, from wearables to connected cars, to home automation and appliances. “The tech companies have realized that there is great value to be derived in collecting and aggregating customer input and they no longer care whether it is spoken initially or in the form of text,” says Derek Top, the director of research at Opus Research, which specializes in “conversational commerce.”

OUT INTO THE WORLD

Apple’s Siri, most known as the voice on the iPhone, already makes its presence felt on the latest Apple TV box, on the Apple Watch and inside the vehicle you drive, via CarPlay. Google’s voice is heard across the Android and Google Now spectrum, and when you’re at the wheel using Android Auto. Microsoft’s Cortana has moved beyond Windows Phones onto rival smartphones, Windows 10 PCs and tablets, and cars. And Alexa, the cloud-based voice-activated assistant inhabiting Amazon’s increasingly popular line of Echo wireless speakers, is now also broadcasting from a non-Amazon device, a sandwichsized speaker called Triby. Also, the emergence of bots and, as Microsoft corporate vice president Derrick Connell puts it, “conversation canvases,” suggest Cortana and peers will work together and play an essential role, “because natural language is really the main UI (user interface).” That’s also why its a good bet you’ll be hearing from other fresh voices relatively soon, including perhaps from Facebook as the social media giant makes bots, the artificial intelligence-powered robots that aim to simulate human conversation, a major part of its Messenger platform. It has been beta testing its own digital assistant, M, not yet voice activated.

Oil price plunge hangs over offshore summit Bill Loveless

@bill_loveless Special for USA TODAY

The annual Offshore Technology Conference in Houston is one of the premier expositions of breakthroughs that enable oil and natural gas producers to reach deeper into the ocean faster, cheaper and safer. Unfortunately for the vendors displaying new implements at NRG Park this past week, the prolonged downturn in oil and gas prices makes it difficult for producers to expand their tool kits when they’re cutting investments and personnel. Bernard Looney, the chief executive for BP’ s global upstream ENERGY

operations, acknowledged as much in his presentation at the event. “How will all of this play out? Quite honestly, it’s hard to tell,” Looney observed, echoing sentiments of his peers around the world. Still, an important lesson is emerging for the industry, even as it draws its belt ever tighter, according to Looney, whose remarks were posted on BP’s website. Now, more than ever, improving productivity is essential, not only to make money at lower prices but also to compete effectively with up and coming forms of energy, such as wind and solar energy, and electric vehicles. “Hydrocarbons have been unchallenged on cost for a long time,” Looney said. “But the competitiveness of alternatives is improving. They may represent a small part of the energy mix, but we cannot afford to ignore them.”

TOMASZ WYSZOÅMIRSKI, THINKSTOCK

A focus on productivity in the oil and gas industry has boosted production at inland sites.

Looney isn’t losing faith in his industry’s ability to recover. He cited a BP forecast that oil and gas will meet more than half of the world’s energy needs in 2035. He warned, however, that oil and gas companies can’t afford to play down progress among energy alternatives, especially as demands for lower-carbon energy gain ground around the world. “Electric vehicles are scaling

up quickly as they drive down costs,” Looney said. “The Tesla Model 3 will go over 300 miles on a single charge, and over 300,000 people put their money down for one in the first week after it launched earlier this year.” The cost of onshore wind electricity has fallen by half since 2009, while prices for solar manufacturing are down by threequarters over roughly the same time, he noted. For BP and other oil and gas companies, the experience has historically been different. “In most industries, such as manufacturing or aviation, costs come down with time,” Looney said. “In oil and gas, specifically the upstream, costs tend to follow the oil price and in general have trended upwards over time. We need to change this.” The good news for oil and gas producers is that the U.S. shale boom is sending a message about productivity with its surprising

resilience. “If you look at sector production overall, since November 2014, the U.S. onshore (drilling) rig count has fallen from 1,865 to 420, almost 80%,” Looney said. “And yet production is pretty much the same as it was then.” At BP, development costs for wells in the San Juan Basin in Colorado and New Mexico are down 60% in the past few years. “This is continuous improvement in action,” Looney said. “We need to learn what we can from this phenomenon across the industry. We need to challenge what we’re doing and learn to adapt. We need to adopt a fundamentally different mindset.” For the oil patch, that may be the best thing that can be said about hard times. Loveless is a veteran energy journalist and television commentator in Washington. He is a former host of the TV program Platts Energy Week.

ASK THE CAPTAIN

myths about hotels

‘Reverse thrust’ is not quite accurate John Cox

Special for USA TODAY

Q: Do they really reverse the engines after landing to slow the aircraft? If so, doesn’t this put a huge strain on the engines? — Andy, Granada Hills, Calif. A: Reverse thrust is a bit of a misnomer. The air from the fan is deflected out the side of the engine, creating a huge amount of drag. The engine is not really reversed. While reverse thrust does cause some stress on the engine and pylon, they’re designed for it. Q: When the plane lands, you can hear the engines being used to decelerate. I would assume the turbines don’t reverse. The question is what is actually happening during reverse thrust? Is the exhaust redirected 180 degrees? — Lloyd, Champagne, Ill. A: In modern jets, most of the airflow (usually around 75%) through the engine is via the outer duct known as the fan duct. When the pilot selects reverse, blocking doors extend into the fan duct, redirecting the airflow outward and slightly forward. This causes a large plume of highenergy air, generating large drag at higher speeds. As the airplane slows, the effectiveness of reverse diminishes. You are right; the engine does not change direction, only the airflow is redirected. Q: I don’t understand why you throttle up when you touch down. Is that reverse? — via email A: Yes, after touchdown the air from the fan is deflected out the side of the cowling. To increase drag, the RPM of the engine is increased. Q: While in flight, is it possible to inadvertently reverse engines? — Ange C, West Hartford, Conn. A: The answer to your question is no, it is not possible to inadvertently reverse an engine in flight. Have a question about flying? Send it to travel@usatoday.com.

SOMETIMES TRAVELERS MUST CHECK OUT UNTRUTHS GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO

Hotels myths are legion and legendary. A popular one, now widely refuted, says that all of your identity and credit card information is stored on your electronic room key card. It isn’t. Here are five more that many travelers believe when they check into a hotel. At brand-name hotels, when they say all of our rooms are the same, they mean it. Regardless of whether it’s a big brand or an independent hotel, no two rooms are exactly the same. “They certainly want you to think they mean it,” says Jacob Tomsky, a veteran hotel worker and the author of the hotel expose, Heads in Beds: A Reckless Memoir of Hotels, Hustles and SoCalled Hospitality. “But it’s absolutely untrue. ... A hotel wants you to think they’re all the same, because someone has to stay in the bad rooms.” Tomsky points out instances where a room on each floor has lost half its bathroom because it was built adjacent to the floor’s ice machine or an elevator shaft is cutting into the size of a bedroom. “Even if the square footage and the layout are the same, not every room is in the same prime location,” says Christine Sarkis, senior editor at SmarterTravel.com. “There’s always a room that’s louder and there’s always the

room with the view of the loading dock, the parking lot or the exhaust fans.” But all is not lost. When making a reservation, “be specific about the features you want in your room and be nice to front desk staff,” says Daniel Craig, a former hotel general manager and the president of Renown, a hotel consultancy. “They decide where to put you.” On sold-out nights, a hotel always has an extra room available just in case. On the contrary, if the hotel is busy there’s a good chance it’s got more bookings than rooms available, Craig says. “If a hotel tells you it’s sold out, it’s sold out,” Craig says. “The No. 1 priority for hotels is a ‘perfect fill.’ That means that all rooms are occupied,” with no one “walked” to a competitor. In cases where a hotel does hold back an extra room or two, Tomsky says “that doesn’t mean you can have it. When a hotel is facing an oversold situation, and hotels often book to 110% capacity, betting on a 10% no-show rate, the hotel might begin claiming there are absolutely no more rooms very early on.” If you tell the hotel that you’re on your honeymoon, you can expect an automatic upgrade. No way, Tomsky says. While a hotel will always attempt to enhance any special occasion reservation, “it’s also always someone’s anniversary, someone’s birthday, a honeymoon. And people say anything to get an upgrade. ... If

Even if there’s a chance of an upgrade, getting it means certain stars have to align. we can help, maybe we will. If we don’t want to, perhaps we won’t. There is no automatic upgrade. So be kind to the desk.” Even if there’s a chance of an upgrade, getting it means certain stars have to align. For example, “there has to be a room to upgrade to and a minimal chance that the hotel will be able to fill it with a paying guest during your stay,” Sarkis says. She agrees with Tomsky that the front desk staffer has to want to upgrade you. “So unless you’ve arranged it in advance,” she says, “don’t be surprised if you arrive at the front desk, declare that it’s your honeymoon, and receive nothing but a congratulations in response.” You’ll get a better deal booking directly with a hotel than with an online travel agency (OTA). One would think so, given that direct bookings are more profitable for hotels than third-party bookings. But Craig says that “due to rate parity clauses in agreements between hotels and OTAs, hotels are contractually obligated to not undersell OTAs. And due to general incompetence, many hotels allow OTAs to

undercut them.” But he also acknowledges that travelers can resort to workarounds to get a better deal. Craig advises that travelers “shop on OTAs, then call the hotel directly and ask it to beat the offer. The hotel has more flexibility over the phone because the transaction isn’t public. And remember that the room rate is just part of the package. Hotels often have more flexibility with inclusions like parking, Internet, breakfast and upgrades. If the hotel won’t match or beat the offer, find a hotel that will.” Certain nights of the week are automatically more expensive than others. A definite myth, agrees Tomsky, who adds that in the hotel business, “every night is just another night. Hotels mostly set rates on inventory-based algorithms and it doesn’t matter if it’s Wednesday or Saturday. If the beds are filling up, the rates are going up. And there are thousands of conventions and corporate meetings spanning any week, and weekends, almost all of which you are totally unaware of. Just because it’s Wednesday doesn’t mean the largest corgi convention in the Midwest hasn’t booked the entire town. And whatever rooms remain will be sold at a premium regardless what day of the week it might be.” But Craig begs to differ and says not only is there a reliably cheaper day to be found but it’s likely to be found on the weekend.

Hotels hope guests follow their noses Some pump smells into common areas — and even rooms Christopher Elliott

chris@elliott.org Special for USA TODAY

The first thing Sheila Haas noticed when she checked into an apartment hotel in Los Angeles recently was the ON smell: A sweet, meTRAVEL tallic fragrance waftEVERY ing through her MONDAY room. “It triggered an asthma attack,” she says. Complaints to the management were met with a shrug. Too bad, a representative told her, “but you didn’t pay for a fragrance-free room.” “We had to stay elsewhere,” says Haas, who lives in Boynton Beach, Fla. It’s not your imagination. Something smells at an increasing number of hotels. And while it’s sometimes unbearable for guests with fragrance sensitivities, like me, or asthma, like Haas, the motive behind “scenting” is sweet — or so they say. uThe Four Seasons Hotel Chicago’s signature scent blends local violets, water lilies and clean citrus with hints of cedarwood for “an unforgettable finish that greets guests upon arrival,” says Carly Fowler, an account manager at Air Aroma, a company

that supplies the trademark fragrances. uAt the Hotel Irvine in southern California, “we gently pump a pleasant scent of watery green floral notes of jasmine and lily, mixed with creamy oriental floral nuances and a touch of musk, amber, sheer woods and vanilla into our public spaces,” general manager Jeroen Quint says. uThe Sheraton Carlsbad Resort & Spa infuses its air with fig, bergamot, jasmine and freesia, “to convey a sense of belonging,” says Tina Hingle, the hotel’s marketing manager. The right scent, she adds, “can evoke warm memories, relax the body and calm the brain. Controlled use of scent can create a desirable and inviting atmosphere.” How many hotels are engaged in environmental fragrancing? No one knows for certain. “Numerous hotels, from hotel chains to boutique hotels, are currently scenting,” says Lior Azachi, the head of business development for Bioluxal, a scent provider. For example, all of the Holiday Inns worldwide are using the same scent in their hotel lobbies. In the USA, there are at least 1,000 sites that smell exactly the same. A more interesting question: Why are hotels pumping smells into common areas, and even rooms? Guests at the Las Vegas Hilton spent 50% more time playing slot machines when the air around them was doused with a floral scent, according to Haha Lung and Christopher Prowant’s book Mental Dominance. A Washington State University study found that exposing shoppers to an orange scent prompted them

Yes, some scents are meant to conceal a less pleasant odor, but they also make you lower your guard and buy more.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT HOTEL SMELLS u Go hypoallergenic. Stay with a hotel that offers hypoallergenic rooms, which are not scented. Most of the major chains, including Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott, Sheraton and Fairmont, now offer no-smell quarters. u If you smell something, say something. Some hotels pump smells into every part of the property. If you're sensitive to scents, don't wait until you're halfway through your visit to complain. u Fumigate your own room. If all else fails, open a window, or find the source of the smell and stop it. At a vacation rental in Hilton Head, S.C., the culprits were a series of overactive plug-ins, which were easily disabled. Note: You may want to check with the property before tampering with its smells.

to spend 20% more than they otherwise would have. Of course, the explanation could be even simpler: The scent might be covering up another smell — one that would drive

guests away. Hotels assure me that’s not the case. At The Renwick and The Gregory, two New York boutique hotels, the introduction of scents by an artisan producer in Brook-

lyn called Apotheke, was done for the benefit of the guest. “It’s not an effort to cover up existing smells, but rather a way to curate an elevated connection to the property and enhance our oneof-a-kind travel experience,” hotel spokesman David Watsky says. The properties even sell candles with the signature scent, called “woods” and “tobacco.” But guests are skeptical. “I’m often overwhelmed by the scents that are present in my hotel rooms,” says Sally Dreyer, a retired kindergarten teacher from Indianapolis. “Some smell like floral sprays and in some hotels the scents seem to be in the ventilation system. These give me headaches and congestion. Why do hotels think we want these odors?” Patricia Abreu, a pianist from Boston who suffers from allergies, says she finds it “odd” that hotels infuse their properties with artificial smells. She wonders if they may be “opening themselves up to potential lawsuits, not just from unsuspecting customers, but especially from employees who will have constant exposure.” To these guests, the smells are suspicious. It seems as if the hotel is hiding something. But the truth about smells is a little more complicated. Yes, some scents are meant to conceal a less pleasant odor, but they also make you lower your guard and buy more. And for some guests, that really stinks.

New Girl’s weirdest, wildest couple is finally tying the knot. After five years of hookups, breakups and one swoon-worthy proposal, Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Cece (Hannah Simone) are getting hitched in the Fox sitcom’s two-part fifth-season finale (Tuesday, 8 and 9 ET/PT). “It feels like a long time coming,” Simone says. “I remember shooting the pilot and never would’ve predicted that, 100-plus episodes later, these characters would be having this wedding.” Of course, the lovebirds’ big day wouldn’t be complete without their oddball gang of current and former roommates (stars Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson and Lamorne Morris, and gueststars Damon Wayans Jr. and Megan Fox). Here’s what else USA TODAY learned about their walk down the aisle: Once you knew Schmidt and Cece would actually be getting married, did you

Greenfield: Everyone was crying, because now we don’t have to talk about the wedding anymore. You find yourself in the unbelievable scenario of a show running for as long as we have, and we have to extend those story lines week in and week out. We’ve been planning and working toward this wedding longer than 90% of any real-life couples. ... As actors, you want to get to do different stories and move on to different things. Looking back, what’s your favorite Schmidt and Cece moment? Greenfield: Probably the first episode that we did, where Cece sleeps over (in Season 1). It was like, “This is going to happen.” It really changed everything, and changed the writers’ idea of where we’re going with the show and these characters. Where would you like to see them when Season 6 picks up? Still on honeymoon? Expecting? Simone: It’s so funny, getting to do a fake wedding on TV, you get asked questions that real couples get asked as soon as they get married, like, “So, a kid on the way?” We’re past the whole willthey-won’t-they back-and-forth, so the whole world has opened up for both of us.

Q Lamorne Morris, Damon Wayans Jr., Jake Johnson and Max Greenfield are getting ready for the big day. have any wedding requests for the writers? Greenfield: We were pretty adamant that it needs to happen, that it’s not a fake-out or some sort of trick. Cece’s almost-wedding in Season 2 was a more traditional Indian ceremony. How is this one different? Simone: There were so many conversations and dress fittings, it felt like we were planning a real wedding. One conversation I had with (creator Liz Meriwether)

was that it was important to find ways to honor Schmidt’s (Jewish) heritage and Cece’s cultural heritage. What are some of their hangups or mishaps on the way to the altar? Simone: The night before the wedding, the whole gang ends up playing True American, which is an aggressive drinking game. It’s probably not the best thing to do. Filming the wedding itself, were there any emotional moments on set?

No contest for ‘Civil War’ at the box office Superheroes rake in $181.8M; ‘Jungle Book’ is second Patrick Ryan USA TODAY

It was hardly a box office battle for Teams Cap and Iron Man. Captain America: Civil War easily won the weekend with an enormous $181.8 million, according to studio estimates from comScore. That gives Marvel’s starry superhero face-off the fifth-biggest opening ever, falling just behind Avengers: Age of Ultron ($191.3 million), The Avengers ($207.4 million), Jurassic World ($208.8 million) and Disney’s all-time champ, Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($248 million). Of those five, three are Marvel movies. Combined with its international release a week earlier, Civil War has now earned $678.4 million globally. Already, it has made more than the superhero’s first big-screen foray, 2011’s Captain

MARVEL

Superheroes choose sides — and face off — when the government wants to regulate them in Captain America: Civil War. America: The First Avenger, did in its entire run ($176.7 million domestically). Civil War pits Captain America (Chris Evans) against Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and co-stars a squad of returning superheroes including Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). The movie has been a hit

with critics (91% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes) and moviegoers (92% say they liked it), guaranteeing long-term playability, says comScore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian. “This is such an awesome way to officially kick off summer,” Dergarabedian says. “It’s just a phenomenal movie with great word of mouth and excellent social-media buzz.”

By introducing Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) and a new Spider-Man (Tom Holland) before their respective standalone films, what Marvel has done “is create this synergistic strategy, giving you a little taste of what they’re going to be like in their own movies,” he adds. “It’s a really effective way of getting people excited for those.” Dropping to second place, Disney’s three-week champ The Jungle Book swung to $21.9 million in its fourth weekend, ruling the jungle with a huge $285 million total ($776.2 million worldwide). . At No. 3, critically panned comedy Mother’s Day got an 8% uptick over the holiday weekend, bringing in $9 million after opening to $8.4 million last week. Rounding out the top five, The Huntsman: Winter’s War continued to nosedive at No. 4 with an icy $3.6 million ($40.4 million in three weeks), and R-rated comedy Keanu landed in fifth place with $3.1 million to bring its haul to just $15.1 million in 10 days. Final weekend numbers are expected Monday.

Nine potential successors for Self The recent report that the coach-shopping Houston Rockets were “intrigued” by Big 12 bosses Bill Self and Shaka Smart served as a reminder that all good things come to an end. Eventually, although not likely any time soon, Self will probably want to take a crack at coaching the best basketball players on the planet and see if he can join one-time mentor Larry Brown as the only coaches to win NCAA and NBA titles. Just as every athletic director has a list of coaching prospects for every sport in the event of an unexpected departure, every NBA GM has a list of prospective candidates. Self is on plenty of those lists, which doesn’t mean the feeling is mutual. Before hiring David Blatt in advance of the 201415 season, the Cleveland Cavaliers had Self’s name at the top of their wish list and moved on upon finding out he did not have any interest in leaving his job as basketball czar at Kansas University, a job for which he successfully campaigned during the 2003 Final Four in New Orleans. The Cavs hired sincefired David Blatt on June 21, 2014, and LeBron James rejoined his original organization three weeks later. Self is on a recruiting roll at Kansas, having landed Josh Jackson, No. 1 in the Class of 2016, per Rivals. The top four 2017 prospects — DeAndre Ayton, Michael Porter, Mohamed Bamba and Wendell Carter — all list Kansas among their schools of interest. Clearly, Kansas is not in imminent danger of losing its coach. Nevertheless, an AD must always have a list of names in his pocket, more specifically in the iPhone in his pocket. The list can be as small as five, as large as 15, but the list must exist. Always. And it must be updated frequently. My subject-to-change list, listed in alphabetical order, has nine candidates (school, career NCAA Tournament record): John Beilein (Michigan, 17-10): Widely regarded as one of the greatest offensive minds on the planet, Beilein has taken Canisius, Richmond, West Virginia and Michigan to the NCAA Tournament.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY SOPHOMORE PITCHER BLAKE WEIMAN SENDS A PITCH TO THE PLATE while Texas Tech senior Tyler Neslony leads off of third base during the Red Raiders’ 6-3 victory Sunday at Hoglund Ballpark.

Villines stingy, but KU skid hits 6 By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When Kansas University baseball coach Ritch Price handed the ball to closer Stephen Villines to start the fourth inning of Sunday’s series finale with No. 8 Texas Tech, the Jayhawks trailed by four runs, and the idea was that Villines would shut the Red Raiders down the rest of the way and give Kansas a chance. Hurling season-highs of 80 pitches and six innings, Villines did just that, limiting Tech to two hits and striking out four batters the rest of the way. Unfortunately for the Jayhawks (19-29-1 overall, 5-12 Big 12), the offense managed just one run — an RBI single from senior Colby Wright — during that time, and Tech completed the sweep, 6-3, at Hoglund Ballpark, handing KU its sixth consecutive loss. “They’re one of the top offensive clubs and best

That’s what we play for. You play to play the big dogs and go out there compete and give it everything you’ve got.” After not pitching in the

first two games of the series, Villines said he received fair warning from pitching coach Ryan Graves that he might receive extended action Sunday, but Price said he never considered starting his closer. “It’s not something I wouldn’t do,” Price said. “So I can understand the question, and it’s a valid question as much as we’ve struggled

on Saturday and Sunday. We just felt like if we could get through three or four innings, we could turn the ball over to him, and he could close it out.” Villines said his last start came during his junior year of high school and added that it might not be time for Kansas to panic just yet. “I’ll do whatever it comes down to,” he said. “But our starters are good, and we’re confident in them.” Sunday starter Blake Weiman (2-6) threw up a zero in the first inning and limited the Red Raiders to two runs in the second but was touched for four in the third, including back-to-back home runs from Hunter Hargrove and Eric Gutierrez. That turned out to be all the Red Raiders needed to complete the sweep, and the Jayhawks head into next weekend’s series at Kansas State and the season finale Please see BASEBALL, page 3C

Josh Jackson makes ‘Super Five’ team By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Incoming Kansas University freshman Josh Jackson was named to the 44thannual Louisville CourierJournal Super Five team, which honors the country’s top high school players. Please see KEEGAN, page 3C Jackson, a 6-foot-7 senior

shooting guard from Prolific Prep in Napa, Calif., earned Super Five mention with incoming Kentucky guards De’Aaron Fox (6-4, Cypress Lakes High, Katy, Texas) and Malik Monk (6-4, Bentonville (Ark.) High), plus incoming Duke forwards Harry Giles (6-10, Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson,

Louisville, Ky. (ap) — Kentucky Derby winner Nyquist heads to Baltimore today to prepare for the Preakness, where the undefeated colt could face up to 13 rivals, including nine new shooters seeking to derail his Triple Crown bid.

Trainer Doug O’Neill had already gone back to Southern California for a few days before returning east to rejoin his bay colt at Pimlico. SOUTH O’Neill told a track official that Nyquist was “doing great” SOUTH the and “looking bright-eyed” morning after. The colt is the first unbeaten Derby winner

Derby runner-up Exaggerator and ninth-place finisher Lani are expected to return AL EASTin the Preakness. Also possible are third-place Derby finisher

Hahn edges Castor at Wells Fargo Charlotte, N.C. — James Hahn beat Roberto Castro with a par on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff Sunday in the Wells Fargo Championship to snap a three-month slump. Hahn, who failed to make the cut in his previous eight tournaments and hadn’t shot a round in the 60s since February, made a four-foot putt on the par-4 18th to win his second career PGA Tour title. Castro’s tee shot on the playoff hole found the creek on the left side of the fairway, and his third shot landed in a spectator’s shoe on the side of the green, leading to a bogey. Hahn bogeyed the 18th in regulation for a 2-under 70, and Castro had a 71 to finish at 9 under, one shot ahead of Justin Rose (71). Hahn also won the 2015 Northern Trust Open at Riviera. Rory McIlroy and Phil Mickelson both shot 66 to tie for fourth at 7 under with thirdround leader Rickie Fowler (74) and Andrew Loupe (71). Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a final-round 72 and a remarkably consistent four-round series of 72-72-71-72—287. He tied for 24th overall at 1-under and earned $62,233.

KU softball disappointed by rainout With two runners on base and one out in the bottom of the fourth Sunday afternoon at a drenched Arrocha Ballpark, Kansas University’s softball players and coaches remained optimistic something positive would come out of a weekend series already sealed in favor of visiting Oklahoma State. Instead, the Jayhawks didn’t even get a chance to cut into a 2-0 OSU lead, as the second weather delay of the afternoon at Rock Chalk Park canceled their chances, leaving KU powerless in its attempt to get back on track after losing seven of its last eight games. Afterward, senior out-

fielder Shannon McGinley called the rainout, which won’t be rescheduled, a bummer, because the Jayhawks (28-20 overall, 5-9 Big 12) needed a victory. “At this point, we really want to play all the games that we can,” said McGinley, who had walked to lead off the inning now washed from the record books. “I think definitely this game, compared to the last two of the series, we were on top of things, and we were really looking good.” The thing about those two losses to Oklahoma State is they well might have sealed KU’s postseason fate. With just three games remaining on the schedule — beginning Thursday at Rock Chalk Park against Iowa State — Kansas coach Megan Smith said the Jayhawks

could have cost themselves a third straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. “I think it’s a long shot,” Smith said of making the field. “I think this weekend we had a chance to secure it, and we just didn’t take care of business.” McGinley, citing a road victory earlier this season at Oklahoma, the Big 12’s top team, said KU is capable of playing at a high level when everything clicks. However, she added, the Jayhawks have failed to put complete efforts together during their recent skid, which included losing road series at Baylor and Texas. “When our offense is on, it’s great. And when our pitching is on, it’s phenomenal,” McGinley said. “So I think the past however many games

we’ve had trouble making them both great at the same time. One game offense will be great, and sometimes pitching isn’t. Then pitching’s great, and our offense can’t keep up. I think for us focusing on making everything connect and working together is the biggest thing.” Smith said KU needs to win its final series against the Cyclones, and then “you never know” about what could happen in terms of an NCAA berth. “If we finish strong, we still played a really good schedule, have done a lot of good things, had some really good wins,” Smith said. “It’ll just be in the committee’s hands, and I’d imagine we’ll be right there on the bubble, and they’ll be thinking about us, and hopefully they’ll put us in.”

In the 42 seasons before that run started, the Buffs made the tournament twice (1997, 2003). Boyle is a fiery competitor and has that rare ability to make a person he just met feel as if he’s known him his whole life. That connecting quality and competitive nature convince me he could recruit blue-chippers to Kansas. Fred Hoiberg (Chicago Bulls, 4-4): He’s not looking to leave the NBA, but as impatient as franchises are in that league, it’s worth keeping a close eye on the former Iowa State coach. Former Butler coach Brad Stevens, on the other hand, is very secure with the Boston Celtics and therefore is not on the list. Chris Mack (Xavier, 7-6): The most under-

rated coach in America. Has maintained the level of success established by current Arizona coach Sean Miller, one of Macks’ bosses at Xavier (Skip Prosser was another). Has taken Muskateers to six NCAA tournaments in seven seasons and had his team ranked as high as eighth in 2011-12 and fifth this past season. Last team to defeat national champion Villanova. Danny Manning (Wake Forest, 0-1): His impressive work at Tulsa earned him a quick promotion to the ACC, where he routinely battles schools with elite basketball traditions. Manning’s a direct communicator with a great basketball mind, which is why he can take on anyone given equal talent.

Whether he can recruit equal talent is all he has left to prove. Gregg Marshall (Wichita State, 10-12): Routinely shafted by the NCAA Tournament committee with far worse seeds or bracket placements than his teams deserve, Marshall consistently gets the best out of his aggressive teams. The Shockers have made five consecutive NCAA Tournaments, reached the Final Four in 2013, went 35-1 in 2014 and lost in a classic cliffhanger to national runner-up Kentucky, knocked off Kansas in 2015 and in this past tourney defeated Vanderbilt and Arizona before losing to Miami. At Winthrop, his teams made the tourney seven of nine seasons.

Archie Miller (Dayton, 5-3): Son of legendary Pennsylvania high school coach John Miller and brother of Arizona’s head coach, the guess here is that history will remember Archie as the best coach in the family. A former sharpshooter at North Carolina State, Miller has coached Dayton to three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, including all the way to the Elite Eight in 2014. Rick Pitino (Louisville, 53-18): There is a reason names such as Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski, Michigan State’s Tom Izzo, Kentucky’s John Calipari and UConn’s Kevin Ollie did not make this list. No point in including coaches you know wouldn’t leave for another college job, just as Self never

would leave Kansas for a competitor. Pitino just might be open to one more landing spot before he retires. No other coach has won a national title at two schools (Kentucky and Louisville). Winning one at a third school would vault Pitino into third place on the all-time college basketball coaching list, ranking behind only John Wooden and Coach K. Mark Turgeon (Maryland, 8-7): After rebuilding Wichita State, Turgeon coached Texas A&M into the NCAA Tournament in each of his four seasons there. Since recovering from an initial rush for the door by transfers, Turgeon has recruited well enough to have his Terps ranked as high as eighth in 201415 and second this past season.

New York have signed 15 consensus top-50 recruits in the Class of 2016, with Marques Bolden and Jarrett Allen still undecided. They are: KU players Jackson, Udoka Azubuike; Kentucky players Fox, Monk, Bam Adebayo, Wenyen Gabriel, Sacha Killeya-Jones; Duke players Giles, Tatum, Frank Jackson, Javin DeLaurier; Michigan State players Miles Bridges, Joshua Langford, Cassius Winston, Nick Ward.

Heights grad Ellis in an interview with the Wichita Eagle. The 6-foot-8 Ellis didn’t play in the game at the advice of his agent. The NBA Combine begins Wednesday in Chicago. “I was working out in Houston for a couple of weeks with John Lucas, then I was in Chicago before coming home,” Ellis told the Ellis Eagle. “I’ll head back to Chicago after this to keep getting ready for the Combine and the draft.” Former KU standout Lynette Woodard, who attended Wichita North, was an honorary coach Friday. “I love Perry. He’s done a great job for the University of Kansas. Thankfully he came back to give us one more show before he heads to the NBA,” Woodard told the Eagle.

Big Ten championships, and in the year he didn’t (2011-12), he took his team to the Final Four. That happened the year that Elijah Johnson could have extended the game with a wide-open layup and instead fired a pass to Naadir Tharpe, whose only option was a desperation heave from way beyond the three-point line. Beilein, 63, is an exceptional coach and solid recruiter. Tad Boyle (Colorado, 1-4): The former Kansas guard has taken Colorado to the NCAA Tournament four times in the past five seasons.

quickness is very good, and he’s terrific in transition and the fast break and finishing at the rim. “To me, what separates him from everybody in the 2016 class is his competitiveness, his leadership. You don’t see a lot of guys take so much pride in pretty much every possession. You saw it at the McDonald’s All American practices: he was getting on teammates if they weren’t getting stops and he was frustrated when they weren’t scoring. You don’t usually see that from a high-profile player like that. He didn’t take a play off.” l

There’s seven legitimate Div.

Tinsley is competing to become the first

KANSAS CITY’S CHESLOR CUTHBERT SLIDES AFTER BEING TAGGED OUT at home plate by Cleveland catcher Yan Gomes in the seventh inning of the Indians’ 5-4 victory over the Royals on Sunday in Cleveland.

Indians take finale, keep Royals reeling Cleveland (ap) — Edinson Volquez struggled with a hole on the mound. If they’re not careful, the Kansas City Royals might dig themselves one, as well. The defending World Series champions lost for the ninth time in 12 games on Sunday, falling 5-4 to the Cleveland Indians, who got another solid outing from Josh Tomlin. Eric Hosmer hit a tworun homer, and Volquez (3-3) couldn’t get out of the fifth inning for the Royals, who are just 7-13 since starting the season 8-2. Kansas City dropped two of three in the series and also lost third baseman Mike Moustakas for an indefinite period because of a broken left thumb. While it’s still too early to be panicked, the Royals don’t look like the team that won last year’s World Series. “I was trying to do a little bit too much to win the series, and I got myself in trouble,” said Volquez, who asked the umpires to address a problem with the mound before the fifth inning. After the grounds crew fixed the dirt, the Indians went to work on Volquez, scoring three runs to take a 5-3 lead. “It was a big hole close to the rubber and in front, too,” Volquez said. “When I landed, it was kind of shaking my ankle. It was hard for me to step close to the rubber because I had to bend my knee, and that made me push the ball up.” Tomlin (5-0) worked into the seventh inning and became the first Indians pitcher to win his first five outings since Justin Masterson in 2011.

Carlos Santana led off the first with a homer off Volquez, and Mike Napoli connected against Kansas City’s starter in the fourth. Kansas City closed to 5-4 in the seventh, but Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor threw out Cheslor Cuthbert at the plate, and reliever Bryan Shaw got Alcides Escboar to bounce into an inningending double play. Shaw worked the eighth, and Cody Allen finished for his eighth save in eight chances. Royals manager Ned Yost felt Cuthbert, who was called up when Moustakas went on the disabled list, waited too long before breaking to the plate, and it cost him.

“He just got a real late break on it,” he said. “It just wasn’t a good read.” Held in check by Tomlin for three innings, the Royals scored three in the fourth to take a 3-1 lead. Lorenzo Cain, who was thrown out by left fielder Brantley trying to stretch a single in the first, led off with a double, and Hosmer went to a 3-2 count before connecting for his fifth homer, a 440-footplus shot into the Royals’ center-field bullpen. Alex Gordon singled with one out and scored on Salvador Perez’s double.

Hot Hosmer His homer extended his hitting streak to seven games, and along with an 18-gamer earlier this season, Hosmer has hit safely in 25 of 26. During that span, Hosmer’s batting .354 (35 for 99) with six homers and 14 RBIs. Sloppy play Hosmer dropped a foul pop and Escobar missed a grounder as the Royals made two errors. Escobar already has five miscues after making 13 last season, when he won a Gold Glove. Trainer’s room Royals: Moustakas was seen again by Dr. Tom Graham, who gave him a second opinion on his broken left thumb. The Royals placed Moustakas on the 15-day disabled list Friday but have not disclosed any more information. Up next Royals: Chris Young (1-4) pitches the opener of a four-game series at the New York Yankees. Of the 19 runs Young has allowed, 13 have come on homers.
