system, keeping it free of algae, moss and other buildup.

The pond will feature a fountain and will be outfitted with a combination of decks and large limestone edges for students who want to relax or have a picnic, Molina said.

On the hill near the corner of 18th Street and Flint Avenue, Facilities Planning and Construction will create an outdoor amphitheater, Molina said. Large slabs of cut limestone will be embedded into the hill to create embankment seating, and new trees will create a shade canopy to cool the seats on hot days.

A new stage will be constructed at the bottom of the hill, providing the campus with an operating outdoor amphitheater, Molina said. Next to the amphitheater and the pond, two gateways will be built to announce the park to students and visitors.

Those walking past Urbanovsky Park on the Texas Tech campus have likely noticed the park is currently undergoing renovations. The project will result in new features being added to the park, including a pond and fountain, renovated jogging paths, outdoor amphitheater and additional basketball and sand volleyball courts.

“We wanted to create more of a park space similar to what you would see in some of the great city parks around the country,” Michael Molina, vice chancellor of facilities planning and construction, said.

Started in 2013, the Tech Campus Beautification Project has brought several changes to the campus, including the renovated Broadway entrance and the Library Mall courtyard. These initial projects were completed in Spring 2015, signaling the start of the last phase of the campus beautification project, the Urbanovsky Park renovations, Molina said.

Students might have already seen new construction near the Student Leisure Pool.

Orange fences mark the area that will soon be home to two new basketball courts and three new sand volleyball courts, Molina said. These were built at student request and will not replace the current sand volleyball courts.

Near the new basketball and sand volleyball courts, there will soon be an additional gazebo, new seating/barbecue areas and several new trees. In fact, according to the official Facilities Planning and Construction map, these trees and picnic areas will be placed along the middle of Urbanovsky’s eastern field, allowing the field to be used for both intramural and park-type events.

“You can still have five man football and flag football here, as well as room for Frisbee or more park-type events, versus just intramural field events,” Molina said.

Unlike the eastern fields, the southern rugby field would remain unchanged, he said.

Near the current sand volleyball courts, construction will soon begin on a new pond. Molina said this pond will be aerated and will contain a water filtration

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Visitors to the Alamo should be on the lookout for the new official cat called Bella.

The Texas General Land Office on Thursday announced the calico kitty has the formal title Miss Isabella Francisca Veramendi de Valero. The agency oversees the state-owned mission in San Antonio, where Bella welcomes visitors and prowls for rodents.

The previous Alamo cat, dubbed C.C. — for Mistress Clara Carmack — died last summer.

Bella was found roaming the grounds of the Presidio la Bahia in Goliad. An employee transported the cat to the Alamo.

Bella wears a tag that says “I Belong At The Alamo.” She’s been seen atop a cannon, playing near a computer keyboard and frolicking with workers.

Staffers care for and pay her expenses.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The more oil and gas companies pump their saltwater waste into the ground, and the faster they do it, the more they have triggered earthquakes in the central United States, a massive new study found.

An unprecedented recent jump in quakes in America’s heartland can be traced to the stepped up rate that drilling wastewater is injected deep below the surface, according to a study in Thursday’s journal Science that looked at 187,570 injection wells over four decades.

It’s not so much the average-sized injection wells, but the supercharged ones that are causing the ground to shake. Wells that pumped more than 12 million gallons of saltwater into the ground per month were far more likely to trigger quakes than those that put lesser amounts per month, the study from the University of Colorado found.

Although Texas, Arkansas, Kansas and other states have seen increases in earthquakes, the biggest jump has been in Oklahoma. From 1974 to 2008, Oklahoma averaged about one magnitude 3 or greater earthquake a year, but in 2013 and 2014, the state averaged more than 100 quakes that size per year, according to another earthquake study published Thursday. Since Jan. 1, the U.S. Geological Survey has logged more than 350 magnitude 3 or higher quakes in Oklahoma.

NICHOLAS JOHNSTON, A Texas Tech doctoral student in the Hospitality and Retail Management program, received a $10,000 grant from the Wine Market Council to study how millennials respond to the way in which wines are packaged. Johnston was chosen to receive the grant from a nationwide pool of applicants.

ADVERTISING: 806-742-3384

BUSINESS: 806-742-3388

Working on a project with Lubbock’s Llano Estacado Winery with a professor from the department of hospitality and retail management, doctoral student Nicholas Johnston decided to put together a proposal for a $10,000 grant from the Wine Market Council.

With no more than two weeks to put this proposal together, Johnston, a student in the Hospitality and Retail Management program, put most other work on pause to do his best in writing up his first research grant proposal, he said. Open nationwide and only to graduate students, Johnston had stiff competition from more wine savvy schools around the country.

“So we turned in the grant, and then we got a word back that I was a finalist,” Johnston said. “So it was a nationwide competition, and there was three people selected.”

After a conference call with executives from Gallo Wine, the largest ex-

porter of California wine, Johnston said he felt the support from his professor Natalia Velikova was enough to show them that he had enough credentials to get the grant. With a small feeling of intimidation, he pitched his idea to the executives.

Johnston received the news earlier than expected and was told he earned the grant from the Wine Market Council, he said.

Humbled by the fact that there was competition in winning such a grant, he said there was still a bit of surprise in hearing that a grant this large was given to a program so small.

“I know for a fact that there are people from other schools that have very strong wine programs specifically that I was competing against,” Johnston said.

“I got a few messages from some professor from other universities that were congratulating me and letting me know that I had bested their graduate student.”

Students to represent Tech professor discusses Tech at Tibetan challenge history behind Juneteenth

by China in 1950, many Tibetans were forced to suppress their culture and heritage and adopt Chinese ideals, according to the release, while several others fled to India and Nepal for safety reasons.

The TIC was founded in response to the Dalai Lama’s concern for the outflow of young Tibetans leaving their communities in search of employment, according to the release.

Saba Nafees, Benjamin Jar-

vis, Stephanie DeLeon, Tailor Brown and Caleb Fisher will be representing Texas Tech at TIC, according to the release.

The winning team will have the opportunity to travel to India at a later date to meet the people implementing their business plan, according to the release. While at TIC, students will also have a chance to meet Dalai Lama. ➤➤@DailyToreador

Juneteenth, observed annually on June 19, will celebrate its 150th anniversary this year.

Many African-Americans remember June 19 as the day when they gained their freedom, Karlos Hill, assistant professor in the Texas Tech Department of History, said in a Tech news release.

When American colonists broke away from Great Britain, enslaved African-Americans remained enslaved, Hill said in the release, and the event had little impact on their everyday lives.

Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when Union

Gen. Gordon Grainger rode into Galveston and read Executive Order No. 3 from President Abraham Lincoln, which granted freedom to all slaves, according to the release.

The Emancipation Proclamation went into effect Jan. 1, 1863, and gave freedom to slaves in Confederate states, according to the release.

Yet, many slaveholders in southern states, including Texas, ignored the proclamation and continued holding enslaved people in bondage, Hill said in the release. It was not until

June 1865 the slaveholders were forced to relinquish their hold on the slaves.

“It forces us to reflect on where we’ve been and perhaps where we’re going,” Hill said in the release. “African-Americans have spent more time – in terms of decades – in bondage than out of bondage,” he said in the release.

“That’s 250 years in slavery, roughly 150 years of freedom, and at least 100 of those we had Jim Crow laws, segregation and lynching. These are the kinds of things we can reflect upon.”

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — A powerful storm that made landfall in Texas this week trudged slowly northward through the nation’s midsection Thursday, causing rivers and creeks to swell, forcing the closure of several Oklahoma highways and contributing to the disappearance of a little boy.

Although there were no reports of injuries in Oklahoma caused by Tropical Depression Bill, authorities were searching for a 2-year-old boy who was swept away by a rain-swollen creek Wednesday near Ardmore, a community north of the Texas border.

The area received about 6.4 inches of rain, and the moisture dislodged boulders onto a stretch of Interstate 35, forcing the closure of the major

highway connecting Oklahoma City and Dallas.

The storm has caused a lot less damage than had been expected before it made landfall Tuesday along the southeastern Texas coast. But forecasters warned that although there was nothing like the flooding experienced over Memorial Day weekend, the storm could still cause rivers to swell dangerously as it moves northeastward and blows itself out over the coming days.

The National Weather Service said Thursday that it had dumped 6 to 11 inches of rain on parts of southern Oklahoma and a half-inch to 2 inches on the eastern part of the state.

Flash flood watches were in effect for the eastern Oklahoma and north-

western Arkansas and were expected to last until Thursday night and Friday morning, respectively. Forecasters expected the storm to dump an additional 3 to 8 inches of rain on an area stretching as far north as Illinois by the end of the week.

Tropical Depression Bill, the second named tropical system of the year, dropped more than 11 inches of rain southwest of Houston on Wednesday, but a pocket of dry air swooped in from the east to spare the state major problems.

Although the storm could cause rivers to swell dangerously or overflow their banks, Texas appears to have avoided the type of damage it had anticipated.

University named as newest member of Southwest US science partnership Remnants of Tropical Storm Bill flood Oklahoma roads as storm trudges north Texas Tech has become the fourth member of the southwest node of the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps.

I-Corps focuses on training engineers and scientists to recognize and translate research results into technology that has the potential to benefit both the economy and society, according to a Tech news release.

Tech will partner with University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University and Rice University to run the southwest node of I-Corps.

As an I-Corps member, Tech will support the teaching and training of national I-Corps teams and coordinate regional I-Corps meetings across the Southwest, Eli Velasquez, Tech’s director of venture development, said in the release.

Velasquez will be the university’s first representative to become NSF certified as I-Corps faculty, according to the release. David Snow, associate managing director and intellectual property manager in the Office of Research Com-

mercialization, will become certified next year.

“This is one of the most progressive research programs in the U.S.,” Robert V. Duncan, vice president for research, said in the release, “since it encourages both excellent innovation and the proper translation into the marketplace so that these innovations and discoveries provide great improvements for the quality of life for all our citizens and others throughout the world.”

‘Freedom’ fries: Texas repeals ban on deep fryers in schools, lifts drink restrictions in vending machines AUSTIN (AP) — It’s about freedom, not the fries.

So says new Texas Agricultural Commissioner Sid Miller, who announced Thursday that the state will repeal a decade-old ban on deep fryers in public school kitchens.

The Republican says government mandates have failed to

make kids healthier in Texas, where roughly two-thirds of residents are considered overweight or obese. Miller is also lifting restrictions on soft drinks in school vending machines.

The American Heart Association, the Texas PTA and school nutritionists opposed the changes. A

former teacher and rodeo calf-roper, Miller says critics are misinformed since Texas is simply giving schools the option of reinstalling deep fryers if they want starting July 1.

Experts, though, say federal limits on calories and fat in school meals make it unlikely that Texas schools will resume deep-frying.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — The once-embattled Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez has taken down a billboard made of soldered, seized guns reading “No More Weapons,” one of the most visible reminders of its violence-laden recent past.

The stark, black-and-white sign was erected by the government of former president Felipe Calderon on the side of a border-crossing bridge in 2012.

The letters were formed by crushed, confiscated pistols and rifles, and the billboard was spelled out in English as a visible protest of the illegal trade in weapons from the United States.

Mayor Enrique Serrano said Wednesday the billboard was taken down because Juarez wants to project a more tourist-friendly image.

“This was the main diplomatic expression of its time, telling the United States not to allow more weapons in,” said Serrano said. “But it is a topic that should be addressed more politely.”

“We want to have a message of welcome, of extending open arms to tourism,” said the mayor.

Chihuahua state Gov. Cesar Duarte suggested the billboard be replaced by one saying “Welcome,” or its Spanish equivalents, “Bienvenidos.”

Ciudad Juarez once saw an average of as many as 10 homicides per day during the darkest days of drug-gang violence in 2010 and 2011.

The homicide rate has declined to about an average of 22 per month in the first four months of 2015, or less than one per day. The decline appears to be due to police and justice reform, as well as changes in the drug trade and the gangs that fought over the border trafficking routes.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld Texas’ refusal to issue a license plate bearing the Confederate battle flag, rejecting a free-speech challenge.

The court said in a 5-4 ruling that Texas can limit the content of license plates because they are state property and not the equivalent of bumper stickers.

The Sons of Confederate Veterans had sought a Texas plate bearing its logo with the battle flag. A state board rejected it over concerns that the license plate would offend many Texans.

Justice Stephen Breyer said the state’s decision to reject the group’s plate did not violate its free speech rights. Conservative Justice Clarence Thomas and the court’s other three liberal justices joined Breyer’s opinion.

The Supreme Court has previously ruled that states can’t force drivers to

display license plates that contain messages with which the drivers disagree, Breyer said. “And just as Texas cannot require SCV (the Sons of Confederate Veterans) to convey ‘the state’s ideological message,’” Breyer said, quoting from that earlier ruling, “SCV cannot force Texas to include a Confederate battle flag on its specialty license plates.”

The state can prohibit some messages even though there are now nearly 450 specialty plates to choose from, he said. Those plates include “Choose Life” to the Boy Scouts and hamburger chains.

The Texas division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans sued over the state’s decision not to authorize its proposed license plate with its logo bearing the battle flag, similar to plates issued by eight other states that were members of the Confederacy and by the state of Maryland.

Golden State Warriors had top 10 all-time season B

y finishing off the Cleveland Cavaliers and the self-proclaimed best player in the world, LeBron James, in six games and winning the 2015 NBA championship, the Golden State Warriors completed one of the top 10 seasons in NBA history.

On the path of winning the franchise’s fourth title and the first in 40 years, the Warriors broke multiple records while being the most exciting team to watch.

The Warriors tore through the regular season as the top team

Jeremy Krakosky in the Western Conference all season and finished with 67 wins, which is tied for the sixth most in NBA history, according to the NBA website.

Their 83 total wins are the third most in NBA history, behind two Chicago Bulls teams.

Golden State had a league best

39-2 home record, behind some of the loudest fans in the league.

They posted a 10.1 average point differential from their opponents during the regular season. Next best team in the league was the Clippers at 6.6, according to a Forbes.com article.

In the regular season, Stephen Curry set the NBA record for the most three-pointers made in a season, breaking his own previous record.

In addition to Curry nailing shots from behind the arc at a historic rate, he won his first league MVP over LeBron James

Bryant joins Cowboys for last day of minicamp ARLINGTON (AP) — Dez Bryant joined his Dallas Cowboys teammates for the last day of minicamp.

Bryant didn’t practice Thursday since he still has not signed his franchise tender that would guarantee him $12.8 million this season.

But the All-Pro receiver sat with teammates in the stands at the Cowboys’ stadium when coach Jason Garrett addressed the team before the final organized workout until training camp in California next month. Bryant then went on the field, tossing a football on the sideline and later standing near quarterback Tony Romo.

“Great to have him here,” Garrett said before practice. “He’s dropped in really throughout the offseason program. Dez is a special guy. ... Very important to our football team.”

Bryant wants a long-term deal, and has indicated that he would be willing to skip regular-season games if he doesn’t get one. The receiver would be locked into to the $12.8 million franchise tender and unable to negotiate any more until after the season if a new deal isn’t reached

by July 15.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones visited with Bryant on the opposite sideline from where reporters were allowed to be during practice.

In talking about Bryant’s passion for the game, Garrett echoed some of the same things Jones said Wednesday. The owner said he anticipated Bryant being at training camp next month and had “no doubt” that the receiver would be leading the way in the Sept. 13 season opener against the NFC East rival New York Giants at the stadium.

Bryant caught 89 passes for 1,350 yards and an NFL-high 16 touchdowns last season, the end of his rookie deal that paid the former first-round draft pick about $11.8 million over five years. He has had at least 80 catches, 1,000 yards and 10 TDs in three consecutive seasons.

“Dez is preparing himself to play football. There’s a business side of the NFL that’s real,” Garrett said.

“Dez loves football, Dez loves our football team, Dez wants to be a great player, he wants the team to be great, so everything he does, he works through that prism, and that’s one of the things that we love about him.”

and the league runner-up in scoring, James Harden. Curry is still only 27 years old.

Curry finished the regular season fourth in offensive efficiency and first in net rating, according to the ESPN website.

As a team, the Warriors were the top in the league in both field goal percentage and threepoint percentage throughout the season.

After the record-setting regular season, many doubted the Warriors ability to win in the playoffs because they have not done it in so long.

Golden State answered that by going 16-5 in the playoffs and having a point differential that has only been topped three times since 1997, according to the ESPN website.

They never faced elimination in the playoffs, something many of the champions of the past decade cannot say. The Warriors went down 2-1 in two series, but responded by winning three consecutive games in both series.

After winning the NBA championship, Curry became the first player in league history to face and beat the other four members

of the All-NBA first team in the postseason. He is also only the third point guard in history to win his first MVP and first title in the same season, according to the ESPN website.

The Warriors accomplished all of this with a rookie head coach and a relatively young roster.

They could be primed to follow up their top 10 all-time NBA season with another one next year.

SUMMER STUDIES

EHSAN SIAVASHI, A graduate computer science student from Iran, studies his homework Thursday at the Library.

Astros GM Luhnow disputes details related to hacking probe HOUSTON (AP) — Houston Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow says the notion that poor password protection is to blame for a computer hack of his team’s player database is “absolutely false.”

The FBI is investigating whether employees of the St. Louis Cardinals broke into the database. Some material was posted online a year ago, and the Cardinals and Astros have both said they are cooperating with the authorities.

Luhnow headed the Cardinals’

scouting and player development department before he was hired by the Astros in December 2011. Luhnow worked at technology firm Archetype Solutions Inc. before his stint in baseball, and he was asked about the theory that hackers could access Houston’s system because he didn’t change passwords.

“That’s absolutely false,” Luhnow told Sports Illustrated. “I absolutely know about password hygiene and best practices. I’m certainly aware of how important passwords are, as well as of the importance of keeping them

updated. A lot of my job in baseball, as it was in high tech, is to make sure that intellectual property is protected.

I take that seriously and hold myself and those who work for me to a very high standard.”

He also denied he used any of the Cardinals’ intellectual property or information from the Cardinals’ database called Redbird to create Houston’s database, which they call Ground Control.

“I’m very aware of intellectual property and the agreements I signed,” Luhnow told SI. “I didn’t take anything,

any proprietary information. Nor have we ever received any inquiries from anybody that even suggested that we had.”

The 49-year-old Luhnow said he remains on good terms with the Cardinals and scoffed at the idea the hacking was intended as some kind of revenge. He also said it doesn’t make sense to think that old information from one team could help another team.

“If you were to take a snapshot of the database of one team, within a month it would not be useful anymore, because things change so quickly,” he told SI.

Texas A&M’s 1957 Heisman winner, John David Crow, dies at 79 COLLEGE STATION (AP) — John David Crow, the bruising running back who won the 1957 Heisman Trophy with Texas A&M before a Pro Bowl career in the NFL, has died. He was 79.

The university said Crow died Wednesday night surrounded by his family. A cause of death was not disclosed.

Crow was the first Heisman winner for the Aggies, who were coached at the time by Paul “Bear” Bryant. During the 1957 season, Bryant famously said: “If John David Crow doesn’t win the Heisman Trophy, they ought to stop giving it.”

He had 129 carries for 562 yards and six touchdowns during his Heisman sea-

son. He also threw five touchdown passes and played defense, where he grabbed five interceptions. He ran for 1,465 yards and 14 touchdowns and caught four touchdowns in his three-year career at Texas A&M. He lived in College Station in his later years and delighted in spending time with

Johnny Manziel the year the quarterback joined him as a Heisman winner. In an interview with The Associated Press just before Manziel won the award, Crow was reminded of Bryant’s famous words about him and asked if he felt the same way about Johnny Football.

“I don’t have near the audience that coach Bryant had,” he said in 2012, chuckling. “I’m not sure how big that would go over.”

Crow became a favorite of Aggie fans when he helped Texas A&M to its first win over Texas in Austin in 1956. Crow, who was born in Marion, Louisiana, didn’t fully understand the importance of the rivalry at the time.

“It was an electrifying crowd for a young guy that came out of a little ol’ town in Louisiana,” Crow said in 2012.

“I came from Louisiana and at that time I knew about LSU and Tulane— that was a big rivalry. It just wasn’t as big a thing to me then. It obviously has grown in my mind to become a very, very big game.”

Crow was the second pick in the 1958 NFL draft and was a four-time Pro Bowl selection in a professional career with the Chicago/ St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers. Crow piled up 4,963 yards rushing, 3,699 yards receiving and threw from 759 yards in his 11-year NFL career.

He coached with Bryant at Alabama and was the head coach at Northeast Louisiana University, now known as Louisiana-Monroe, from 1975-80, where he went 20-34-1.

He later returned to Texas A&M where he worked in various positions in the athletic department until his retirement in 2001.
