DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer Tom Brady delivered the shot of the match that made it easy to forget the rest of his swings. Tiger Woods didn't miss a fairway and earned a small measure of revenge against Phil Mickelson. The PGA Tour is set to return in just over two weeks, and it has a tough act to follow. In the second and final charity match that brought live golf to TV, this exhibition was as entertaining as the real thing. Woods lagged a long birdie putt close enough that his partner, Peyton Manning, didn't have to putt....
CHRISTOPHER WEBER and DAISY NGUYEN Associated Press LOS ANGELES (AP) — As cooped-up California residents ventured outdoors to take advantage of sunshine and relaxed rules to control the spread of coronavirus, authorities said Memorial Day weekend crowds at beaches and parks were manageable Sunday. Stay-at-home restrictions eased across much of the state, which has seen a decline in COVID-19 hospitalizations. Some 47 of 58 counties have received permission to reopen most stores, restaurants and many public spaces by meeting s...
MARCIA DUNN AP Aerospace Writer CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - The first astronauts launched by SpaceX are breaking new ground for style with hip spacesuits, gull-wing Teslas and a sleek rocketship - all of it white with black trim. The color coordinating is thanks to Elon Musk, the driving force behind both SpaceX and Tesla, and a big fan of flash and science fiction. NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken like the fresh new look. They'll catch a ride to the launch pad in a...
GARY FIELDS and SALLY STAPLETON Associated Press For the first time in two months, there was clapping, singing and fellowship inside Stithton Baptist Church in Radcliff, Kentucky, as members of the congregation returned to the sanctuary for Sunday morning services. There also were masks, hand sanitizer and social distancing. On a weekend when President Donald Trump declared houses of worship essential and asked governors to reopen them, some congregants around the country headed for their places of worship with numerous...
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The California Highway Patrol is conducting a statewide ``maximum enforcement'' operation during the three-day Memorial Day weekend, in which all available officers will crack down on traffic violators, authorities said. The enforcement operation began at 6 p.m. Friday and ends at 11:59 p.m. Monday, the CHP said.

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The next ship to be commissioned and carry the "Kansas City'' name arrived at its home port in San Diego today, Navy officials said. The future USS Kansas City arrived at Naval Base San Diego, where the Navy will commission the Independence-variant littoral combat ship on June 20. ``I am extremely proud of all the hard work the crew has done to complete the sail around and prepare us to officially join the fleet on commissioning day,'' said Commander R.

JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Kumail Nanjiani has a few names for quarantine life. He has divided time firmly between "pre-Hanks/Wilson" and "post-Hanks/Wilson," referring to the early COVID-19 diagnosis for Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. And he has settled on calling the strange, bewildering days of lockdown "The Weirds." This applies to all the confusion and just plain odd parts of life since the pandemic began. Like when Nanjiani was on "Good Morning America" last...
CURT ANDERSON Associated Press ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The Memorial Day weekend marking the unofficial start of summer in the U.S. meant big crowds at beaches and warnings from experts Sunday about people disregarding the coronavirus social-distancing rules and risking a resurgence of the scourge that has killed nearly 100,000 Americans. Sheriff's deputies and beach patrols tried to make sure people kept their distance from others as they soaked up the rays on the sand and at parks and other recreation sites around the c...
R.J. RICO Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — One was a 94-year-old veteran of World War II who was the first of his 11 brothers to enlist in the military. One was a Vietnam veteran who lost his leg overseas and was always touched when people thanked him for his service. Another was drafted into the military at 18 and won a Purple Heart. They are among the untold number of veterans who served and survived during times of war only to die in recent weeks from the coronavirus. This year's Memorial Day will pay tribute not only to th...
JILL COLVIN and ZEKE MILLER Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has a new pitch to voters for this fall: Trust me. As the economy faces a once-in-a-century recession, with more than 38 million people out of work, Trump is increasingly talking up a future recovery that probably won't materialize until after the November election. He's asking voters to look past the pain being felt across the nation and give him another four-year term on the promise of an economic comeback in 2021. "It's a transition to g...
JILL LAWLESS Associated Press LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Sunday he wouldn't fire his chief aide for allegedly violating the national lockdown rules that he helped to create by driving the length of England to his parents' house while he was infected with the coronavirus. Defying a growing clamor from public and politicians, Johnson said Dominic Cummings had acted "responsibly, legally and with integrity" when he drove 250 miles (400 kilometers) from London to Durham, in northeast England, with his wife an...

VISTA (CNS) - A woman was found wounded by a gunshot in a car today, Sheriff's officials said. At about 6:15 a.m. Saturday, deputies responded to the 400 block of Sycamore Avenue after receiving a 911 call about a woman who had been shot, according to Lt. Thomas Seiver of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department. Deputies found the woman in a vehicle who was the victim of gunshot wound, Seiver said. The Vista Fire Department took the woman to a hospital, he said. ``The woman is still alive,'' Seiver said. ``However, due to...
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - As San Diegans headed for area beaches on the start of the Memorial Day weekend, Lifeguard Services officials said beachgoers seemed to be following county health guidelines issued to slow the spread of the coronavius pandemic. At 1 p.m., it was still early to gauge crowd estimates at all coastal beaches, but at La Jolla beaches, it was a ``pretty routine'' day, according to Marine Safety Lt. Maureen Hodges of Lifeguard Services. ``Lifeguards made some rescues,'' Hodges said. ``But so far, we're off to a...
DEB RIECHMANN Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) - Time is running out on an arms control treaty that, if it's allowed to expire, will leave the world with no legal restrictions on U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons for the first time in nearly half a century. If President Donald Trump doesn't extend the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty - only remaining U.S.-Russia arms control pact - or succeed in negotiating a replacement treaty, it will expire on Feb. 5. That's just 16 days...
JORGE LEBRIJA and MARIA VERZA Associated Press TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) - Adrián Alonso Gama lived life on both sides of the border, until he got the coronavirus. On weekends the 37-year-old truck driver would stay at his parents' home in Tijuana. Thanks to his U.S. green card, he lived in his own place in San Diego during the week, delivering beer and auto parts around the American southwest. Last week, Gama started feeling sick and returned to Mexico to be close to family. He...
JOHN MARSHALL AP Sports Writer PHOENIX (AP) - Basketball is woven into the fabric of Native American life. Kids dribble balls on dirt courts and shoot at makeshift rims on some reservations while tournaments are held in state-of-the art buildings on others. Players and fans may travel hundreds of miles to play and watch games of "Rez ball," the fast-paced, no-shot-is-a-bad-one version of hoops played by Native Americans. The game also brings already tight communities even...
BRIAN MELLEY Associated Press LOS ANGELES (AP) — While most of California welcomed more places to eat, shop and play this holiday weekend, Los Angeles did not join the party. The nation's most populous county is not planning to reopen more widely until the next summer holiday, July 4th, because it has a disproportionately large share of the state's coronavirus cases and can't meet even new, relaxed state standards for allowing additional businesses and recreational activities. Los Angeles County, with a quarter of the s...
AAMER MADHANI and ASHRAF KHALIL Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser's cellphone rang earlier this week from an unfamiliar number: It was the White House calling to say President Donald Trump wanted to talk. The president congratulated Washington's mayor on $876 million in federal coronavirus relief going to the Washington-area Metro system — money that was welcome but not under the mayor's jurisdiction, instead going to a regional transportation authority. Bowser used the moment to rem...
TIM REYNOLDS AP Basketball Writer The NBA is in talks with The Walt Disney Company on a single-site scenario for a resumption of play in Central Florida in late July, the clearest sign yet that the league believes the season can continue amid the coronavirus pandemic. The National Basketball Players Association is also part of the talks with Disney, the league said Saturday. Games would be held at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, a massive campus on the Disney property near Orlando. NBA spokesman Mike Bass said the...
DAVID CRARY, GEIR MOULSON and ANGELA CHARLTON Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump played golf at one of his courses Saturday at the start of the Memorial Day weekend as he urged U.S. states to reopen after coronavirus-related lockdowns. Yet many Americans remained cautious as the number of confirmed cases nationwide passed 1.6 million. In California, where many businesses and recreational activities are reopening, officials in Los Angeles County said they would maintain tight restrictions until July 4. S...
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Hours after San Diego County reopened dine-in restaurants and retail shopping, health officials saw ``egregious'' disregard for public health orders, resulting in one business being forcibly closed and notices from law enforcement that they would ramp up enforcement over Memorial Day weekend. A short video clip played at Friday's news briefing taken at El Prez, a popular Pacific Beach sports bar and restaurant, showed dozens of people in close physical contact without face coverings standing at the bar. The... Full story
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A federal judge today dismissed a $10 million defamation lawsuit filed by the owners and operators of the San Diego-based One America News Network against MSNBC and political commentator Rachel Maddow for telling her viewers last summer that the conservative network ``really literally is paid Russian propaganda.'' U.S. District Judge Cynthia Bashant dismissed Herring Networks' suit with prejudice, ruling ``there is no set of facts that could support a claim for defamation based on Maddow's statement,''...
CAMP PENDLETON (CNS) - Firefighters will conduct a prescribed burn today near the border of Naval Weapons Station Fallbrook on Camp Pendleton, the base announced today. Starting at 9 a.m., Camp Pendleton Fire Department crews will monitor the burn along with crews from the Oceanside Fire Department and the North County Fire Protection District.

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A deep marine layer and onshore flow will keep the weather on the cool side again today, but high pressure building aloft will bring a sharp warm-up next week, forecasters said. Low clouds will be less extensive Saturday night, and be confined to coastal areas after Monday morning as the marine layer shrinks, the National Weather Service said. Coastal temperatures Saturday will be between 68-73 degrees and overnight lows will be 52-58 with mostly cloudy skies, the NWS said. Temperatures in the valleys will...
