A year after a deadly tornado tore through Joplin, thousands of sur-vivors and others touched by the storms fury made a somber march through some of the hardest-hit neighborhoods in a town dedicat-ed to remembering its losses but also committed to what is certain to be a long, slow recovery.

Carrying small American ags and wearing T-shirts bearing the names of lost friends and loved ones, they walked through the town where a tornado packing 200-mph winds killed 161 people. The tornado wiped away entire neighborhoods in the city of 50,000, destroyed Jop-lins only public high school and left behind a ghastly moonscape of block after city block of foundations wiped clean of their structures.

In January, elected of cials and other members of a 45-person recov-ery committee endorsed a long-term recovery plan that calls for

A US Airways jet traveling from Paris to North Carolina was divert-ed to Maine on Tuesday after a French passenger handed a note to a flight attendant mentioning that she had a surgically implant-ed device, raising fears of a terror scenario that security officials had warned about.

There is no evidence the plane was ever in danger, ofcials said. An examination by two doctors aboard the plane found that the passenger, a French citizen born in Cameroon, had no scars or inci-sions, said U.S. Sen. Susan Col-lins of Maine, who was briefed by Transportation Security Adminis-tration chief John Pistole.

The FBI and Homeland Secu-rity Department warned airlines last summer that terrorists are con-sidering surgically hiding bombs inside humans to evade airport security.

Tony Caruso, acting airport

manager, told reporters that the unruly passenger was removed after the jet taxied to a remote part of the airport.

The jetliner was about 40 min-utes from Bangor when local of-cials were alerted, Caruso said. The remaining passengers aboard the Boeing 767 were kept in a secure area in the airport before being allowed back onto the jet, which departed 3 hours later for Char-lotte, N.C. GLENN ADAMS (AP)

Army More Selective on RecruitsUncle Sam may still want you. But others? Maybe not.

In sharp contrast to the peak years of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the Army last year took in no recruits with misconduct convic-tions or drug or alcohol troubles, according to internal documents obtained by the Associated Press. And soldiers already serving on active duty now must meet tough-er standards to stay on for further tours in uniform.

The Army is also spending hun-dreds of thousands of dollars less in bonuses to attract recruits or entice soldiers to remain.

Its all part of an effort to slash

ly three in 10. After the Defense Department issued new guidelines, the percentage needing waivers started to come down in 2009.

Ofcials say they hope to make cuts largely through voluntary attri-tion. But Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army chief of staff, said as many as 35 percent of the cuts will be invol-untary. LOLITA C. BALDOR (AP)

the size of the active duty Army from about 570,000 at the height of the Iraq war to 490,000 by 2017. The cutbacks began last year, and as of the end of March the Army was down to less than 558,000 troops.

In 2006, about 20 percent of new Army recruits came in under some type of waiver, and by the next year it had grown to near-

However, the new chapter to be opened by this election is likely to be just as tumultuous, facing con-tentious issues that no one has dealt with since Mubaraks fall: the econ-omy, the role of Islam, the future of democracy, the relationship with the U.S. and the fate of the historic 1979 peace treaty with Israel.

At the same time, Egyptians are reveling in a new world of combat-ive, televised politics, presidential debates, rallies and hecklers.

God and the people will guar-antee that the next president will stay the course. If he does some-thing wrong, we will kick him out, said Al-Sayed Hassan Eid, 65.

Iran Agrees to Expand U.N. Nuke Inspectors Access

Iran made the first move Tues-day in attempts to gain an edge in nuclear talks with the U.S. and other world powers: It agreed in principle to allow U.N. inspectors to restart probes into a military site suspected of harboring tests related to atomic weapons.

The tentative deal announced as envoys headed to the Iraqi cap-ital for negotiations is likely to be used by Iran as added leverage

8W]^ZWZto seek concessions from the West on sanctions. But U.S. ofcials have shown no willingness to shift into bargaining mode so quickly, set-ting the stage for possible tense moments after talks set for Wednes-day resume in Baghdad.

Still, Irans move raises the pres-sure on the West for some recipro-cal gestures to keep dialogue on track and further highlights Teh-rans apparent aims of opening a long give-and-take process over its nuclear ambitions. (AP)

New Russian Law Targets Protests

President Vladimir Putin targeted those who dare oppose him Tues-day, introducing draconian new fines for protesters and handing out Kremlin jobs to widely detest-ed lieutenants despite the public anger they have generated.

A law introducing a 200-fold increase in nes for taking part in unsanctioned protests was given preliminary approval by the Krem-lin-controlled lower house, setting

the stage for toughening Putins crackdown on dissent.

O p p o s i t i o n l a w m a k e r s denounced the new fines as an attempt to sti e criticism, warn-ing that it would fuel broad outrage and destabilize Russia by depriv-ing the public of a way to express discontent.

A direct signal is being made by those in power: Sit down and keep quiet! said Sergei Mitrokh-in, leader of the liberal Yabloko party. (AP)

Opening a new, entrepreneurial era in spaceflight, a ship built by a billionaire businessman sped toward the International Space Station with a load of groceries and other supplies Tuesday after a spectacular, middle-of-the-night blastoff.

The launch of the Falcon 9 rock-et and its unmanned Dragon cap-sule marked the rst time a com-mercial spacecraft has been sent to the orbiting outpost.

Cutting a brilliant, fiery arc through the darkness, the rock-et lifted off just before 4 a.m. and smoothly boosted the capsule into orbit. The capsule is expect-ed to rendezvous with the space station within days, delivering a half-ton of provisions for its six crew members.

It is considered just a test ight the capsule was packed with only nonessential items, in case something goes disastrous-ly wrong but if all goes well with this mission and others like it, commercial spaceships could be carrying astronauts to and from the space station in three to ve years.

Falcon f lew perfectly!! bil-lionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, founder of the SpaceX company, said via Twitter. Feels like a giant weight just came off my back.

Musk later told reporters: For us, its like winning the Super Bowl.

SpaceX has spent more than $1 billion on the project, and up to now, f lights to the space sta-tion were something only major governments had done.

The White House offered con-gratulations.

Every launch into space is a thrilling event, but this one is

especially exciting, said John Hol-dren, President Obamas chief sci-ence adviser. This expanded role for the private sector will free up more of NASAs resources to do what NASA does best tackle the most demanding technologi-cal challenges in space, including those of human space ight beyond low-Earth orbit.

NASA is looking to the private sector to take over ights to the space station now that the space shuttle program has ended. Sev-eral U.S. companies are vying for the opportunity.

The signi cance of this day cannot be overstated, said a beam-ing NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. Its a great day for Amer-ica. Its actually a great day for the world because there are peo-ple who thought that we had gone away, and today says, No, were not going away at all.

Flight controllers applauded when the Dragon reached orbit. Then they embraced once the solar panels on the craft popped open. Many of the SpaceX controllers wore untucked T-shirts, jeans or shorts, a stark contrast to NASAs suit-and-tie shuttle crowd.

A previous launch attempt, on Saturday, was aborted with a half-second left in the countdown because of a bad valve in one of Falcons nine engines.

An important test comes Thurs-day, when the Dragon nears the space station. It will undergo prac-tice maneuvers from more than a mile out. If all goes well, docking will occur Friday. MARCIA DUNN (AP)

J[[dFbWdd[ZI^eej_d]WjIjWj_edPolice: Attack plotted after student was previously threatened

HeYal_bb["CZ$

A 16-year-old high school student charged with shooting a teenager at the Rockville Metro station Fri-day told detectives he was angry because the victim had threatened to rob him the day before, accord-ing to arrest records made pub-lic Monday.

Kevin Nguyen met with several friends Thursday night to devel-op a plan of retaliation, according to court papers. On Friday after-

noon, he and some friends went to the Metro station to nd the other 16-year-old.

I heard you wanted to rob me,

Nguyen said, after approaching the boy in a pedestrian tunnel just out-side the stations turnstiles.

Yeah, what are you going to

The suspect, 5-foot-4-inches tall and 110 pounds, started shooting with a semiautomatic pistol and kept ring as the victim tried to run away, according to arrest records. Hit by as many as ve rounds, the victim collapsed in the tunnel with wounds to his leg, abdomen and groin, according to court papers. He survived his wounds.

As Nguyen red, police said, one round struck an 18-year-old bystander.

Forget gas prices. More people plan to head out of town Memo-rial Day weekend than any time since 2006, and some plan to skip school to do it.

An annual AAA survey showed an uptick of 17,000 people plan-ning to travel from the Washing-ton region for an extended holiday weekend, and almost 40 percent of them said they would take the kids along.

I think since weve had no snow days this year, parents are less reticent about missing a school day to make the most of a travel weekend, said John B. Townsend II of AAA.

875,000 Washington area residents said they plan to travel might be a sign that they are feeling positive about the economy, despite the rel-atively high price of gasoline.

Perhaps because of gas prices, but also because of the proximity of the ocean and the Chesapeake Bay, local travelers dont plan to go as far this weekend as people else-where in the nation.

They will average just 570 miles round trip, Townsend said. The AAA holiday travel forecasts are done by Boston-based IHS Global Insight. A S HL E Y H A L S E Y I I I (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Locally, drivers are paying an average of $3.68 for a gallon of reg-ular, down from $4 a month ago. This time last year, gas cost $3.95 per gallon.

The biggest increase in planned travel is among those mak-ing more than $100,000. People who make less than are less likely to trav-el this year than they were last, likely a reflection of gas prices, which re-main high despite a recent drop. (TWP)

Gray Campaign Aide Pleads Guilty

Thomas Gore, 56, faces 12 to 18 months in prison for obstruction of justice.

A key finance official in Mayor Vincent C. Grays 2010 campaign admitted to conspiring with a fel-low campaign aide to send $660 in illicit money orders to a minor mayoral candidate.

Thomas W. Gore, 56, the cam-paigns assistant treasurer, made the admissions during a plea hear-ing Tuesday in the Districts fed-eral court.

He has been charged with three campaign nance violations, for using false names, and felony obstruction of justice.

for the obstruction of justice charge. Each campaign nance violation also carries a possible sentence of up to six months.

Although charging documents filed Monday did not name the mayoral candidate who received the money orders, Gore disclosed his identity during the hearing. Candidate B is Sulaimon Brown, he told U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly.

Gores guilty plea is the first public admission of criminal wrongdoing since Brown disclosed allegations of cash payoffs last March. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

@kijjmeZWoiW\j[hfalling to the New York Rangers to end one of the Capitals best postseasons since 1998, it appeared the wheels were coming off the team. Dale Hunter announced he wouldnt return as coach, and hours later, Alex Semins agent announced the winger was headed to free agency. Washington will likely have to endure a bidding war for Semin, and General Manager George McPhee said the coaching search could take months. McPhee will need to put together a transformative offseason that fill the hole left by Hunter, and get the team back on track to competing for the Stanley Cup. No pressure, George. REED S. ALBERS (FOR EXPRESS)

Pressure is on the Caps GM to fill the holes left from the 2012 season

Replacing Dale Hunter isnt hard. Finding the right next coach is. While some fans might cling to the idea that the former Caps legend deserves credit for transforming the team into grinders, hes hard-ly irreplaceable.

Its arguable that Hunter had taken the team as far as he could. After all, his record as a coach was 30-23-7. Not exactly the dominance Bruce Boudreau led the Caps to, but then again, Hunters Caps would likely top Boudreaus if they were to face off in the postseason.

Before McPhee can nail down a few candidates, he needs to think of wholl be able to x star Alex Ovech-kin. In fact, that should be the rst question on the application after name, address and social securi-ty number. Whichever coach has a plausible plan for reviving Ovech-kin is the guy for the Caps.

Find a new coach.

Assess the Semin situation.

Perhaps the biggest puzzle for McPhee to solve is what to do with the on-again, off-again superstar Alex Semin.

Despite his ups and downs, Semin has been a major part of the Capitals offense for the past ve seasons, and there are few free agents who can match his scoring potential.

Semins agent sounded off on the D.C. sports airwaves about wanting to test the free agency market, but given No. 28s reclusive nature and sporadic play, its hard to imagine hell be offered franchise player money by any team in the NHL.

McPhees biggest challenger to sign Semin will likely come from the Kontinental Hockey League in Russia his native country, which he led to the World Championship last weekend.

Washington may not want to match a deal from the KHL, but the chemistry Semin has with stars Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom might be worth taking a chance on if the price is right, of course.

Alex Semins inconsistency has plagued the Capi-

tals for years.

Lock up key free agents.

The Caps could experience an exodus of sorts if McPhee doesnt wisely spend money to lock up a number of free agents.

One major unrestricted free agent is veteran grinder ' Mike Knuble, whose ice time diminished under Hunter. Though the vet of 1,040 games is aging (hes 39 this year), Knuble said he intends to continue playing.

Having a savvy veteran around the locker room is always a plus, but with the rise of (Jay Beagle (a restricted free agent) the Caps cant hand out roster spots like candy this summer.

Defensemen ) Mike Green and * John Carlson are restricted free agents, meaning that if any team attempts to sign either of them, the Caps are rst allowed to match the offer. Its hard to imagine the Caps wont keep both.

The last major unrestricted free agent on the Caps docket is defender + Dennis Wideman, who racked up a tied-for-team-worst minus-seven rating in a dreadful postseason. With Dmitri Orlov entering his second season in the NHL next year, its likely adios to Wideman, as his product doesnt justify the price.
