Black bear sightings continueBuster thompson

Staff writer

A young black bear looking for a place to call home con-tinued its search in Citrus County, causing surprises for passersby.

The latest sightings reported to the Chronicle from the af-ternoon of Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020, placed the animal along U.S. 19 in between Crystal River and Homosassa.

Karen Parker, spokes-woman for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), said two residents also spotted the bear Thursday morning, mov-ing north of the Crystal River Golf Club.

Bear sightings can be re-ported to be FWC by calling the agency’s Wildlife Alert Hotline, 888-404-3922.

“We want to know where the bear is,” Parker said Friday.

FWC bear biologists esti-mate the bear weighs be-tween 150 and 200 pounds, the size of a “dispersing juve-nile,” Parker said.

“It just broke away from its mom,” she said, “It’s trying to find its own territory.”

Parker said the first sight-ing was reported on Monday, behind the Publix at State Road 44 and County Road 486.

There were more sightings Tuesday near Three Sisters Springs, and Wednesday near Northeast Third Street.

Special to the ChronicleWendy Watson snapped a photo Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020, of a black bear wandering along U.S. 19 in between Crystal River and Homosassa.

Franklin living the dream

BRANDON TODD/Carolina PanthersSam Franklin, a 2015 Citrus High graduate, during a recent practice with the Carolina Panthers. Franklin, an undrafted rookie safety out of Temple, and the Panthers take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, Sept. 20, 2020.

Chris Bernhardt Jr.Staff writer

Understandably, Sam Frank-lin admitted he has gone through a lot of emotions the past few weeks.

That kind of thing should be expected for a small-town kid, an undrafted rookie who rose through the ranks and made his NFL debut last Sunday, Sept. 13, 2020. That’s exactly what Franklin did when he took the field for the Carolina Panthers in their 34-30 sea-son-opening loss to the Las Vegas Raiders at Bank of America Stadium.

Franklin, who graduated

from Citrus High in 2015 and spent the last four years at Temple, played on all four spe-cial teams units on Sunday, for a total of 18 snaps, and also saw two snaps on defense.

“I’ve been happy, but not re-ally satisfied. I want to achieve more,” Franklin said. “To reach this point is one of the biggest blessings. I had to step back after the first game and take it all in. It was like, ‘Wow, I just played in the NFL.’ I’ve dreamt of getting here and for it to actually happen, it was a lot.”

Now comes a Week 2 trip back home, of sorts. The Pan-thers will be at Raymond James

Stadium this Sunday to take on Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay

Buccaneers at 1 p.m.

Citrus’ August employment picture brightensmiChael d. Bates

Staff writer

Citrus County’s employment picture saw marked improvement in August, with more people work-ing, less unemployed and a

substantially lower jobless rate from one month earlier.

The brighter picture was seen throughout Florida as more peo-ple head back to work after six months of pandemic-induced shutdowns.

August’s rate was 7.3%, down from 11.3% in July, according to data released Friday by the Flor-ida Department of Economic Op-portunity. There’s still ground to make up, though, from last year when the rate was 5.1%.

Citrus County’s labor force in-creased by 1,462 in July, to 46,509. The number of employed rose by 3,134 to 43,103 and the number of unemployed dropped by 1,672 to 3,406.

Citrus County COVID-19 updateForty-five new positive

cases were reported in Citrus County since the latest FDOH update. Seven new hospitalizations were re-ported; one new death was reported. To date in the county, 2,586 people have tested positive (including eight non-residents), 269 have been hospitalized and 81 have died.

WASHINGTON — Su-preme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a dimin-utive yet towering wom-en’s rights champion who became the court’s second

f e m a l e justice, died Fri-day at her home in Wash-i n g t o n . She was 87. Gins-b u r g died of compli-c a t i o n s f r o m

metastatic pancreatic cancer, the court said.

Her death just over six weeks before Election Day is likely to set off a heated battle over whether Presi-dent Donald Trump should nominate, and the Republican-led Senate should confirm, her re-placement, or if the seat should remain vacant until the outcome of his race against Democrat Joe Biden is known.

Chief Justice John Rob-erts mourned Ginsburg’s passing. “Our Nation has lost a jurist of historic stature. We at the Su-preme Court have lost a cherished colleague. Today we mourn, but with confidence that future generations will remem-ber Ruth Bader Ginsburg as we knew her — a tire-less and resolute cham-pion of justice,” Roberts said in a statement.

Ginsburg announced in July that she was undergo-ing chemotherapy treat-ment for lesions on her liver, the latest of her sev-eral battles with cancer.

Ginsburg spent her final years on the bench as the unquestioned leader of the court’s lib-eral wing and became something of a rock star to her admirers.

WREC crews sent to Panhandle

Fifteen WREC employees left Crystal River on Thursday, Sept. 17, to help restore power at Escambia River Electric Cooperative (EREC) located in the Florida Panhandle after Hurricane Sally left thousands without power.

“Hurricane Sally has caused cata-strophic flooding and major damage to the Panhandle of Florida,” said Billy Brown, WREC’S General Man-ager. “It will take a substantial amount of manpower and

equipment to restore power from a slow-moving storm this size.”

Hurricane Sally knocked out power to 95% of Escambia River Electric Cooperative’s members. The cooperative also sustained heavy damage to its transmission system. WREC line crews are ex-pected to be in the Panhandle for up to two weeks.

Citrus County ChroniCle

Fred HiersStaff writer

The Inverness city council fi-nalized Thursday its ad valorem tax rate for 2020-2021 and re-duced it in order to collect no more revenue than it did a year ago.

The council members voted unanimously during the second of two state-required meetings to set the city’s millage rate at 7.9730. The millage had been 8.2729 this year.

The 7.9730 millage rate is also the city’s rollback rate. The roll-back rate is the millage rate which would generate the same amount of property tax as the previous year. So if the value of taxable property in the city in-creases, the rollback rate decreases.

If the city council had kept its millage rate at 8.2729, it would have collected an additional $146,086 from property owners.

The Citrus County property appraiser certified the city’s full, non-exempt taxable value at $512,755,201. This estimate in-cludes new and improved tax-able properties of $1,438,945 and in total, also due to increased values of existing properties, a 4.9% growth for Inverness over last year.

At the proposed millage of 7.9730, at 95% collection, the city will collect $3.88 million in ad valorem taxes.

One mill in property, or ad va-lorem, taxes is equal to $1 for each $1,000 of the property’s tax-able value.

So if a property is worth $75,000, after homestead exemp-tions, the property owner’s city property taxes will be $597.96. That does not include county or school taxes.

Council president Jacquie Hepfer said after the budget meeting that lowering the mill-age rate to the rollback level

was something the city could afford to do and the lost $146,086 would not make much difference in the overall bud-get. The city’s 2020-2021 bud-get, including debt and transfers, is $18,292,022.

Councilman Ken Hinkle said had the council was looking to reduce the millage after years of increasing it. Florida statutes cap county and city millage rates at 10.

He said the additional money would probably have gone to re-serves, and there is enough there for now.

The city has $5 million in dis-cretionary spending reserves, meaning the money is not ear-marked and can be spent the way the council sees fit.

“We asked (city manager Eric Williams) to see if we could bring (the millage rate) down. We’re trying to move it down,” Hinkle said.

Hinkle said he also hopes

keeping taxes at the rollback rate level will help local busi-nesses, which are already strug-gling financially because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“We’ve always tried to help local business,” he said.

City Manager Eric Williams said the city is looking to con-tinue and reduce the millage rate in the future and better di-versify the city’s revenue sources, including imposing fees for services.

The city this year imposed for the first time a monthly residen-tial waste collection fee. Previ-ously, the city paid for collection service using residential prop-erty taxes.

Williams said the city would continue to look at initiating fees for services rather than look always to the general fund.

In other business:n Crystal River Mayor Joe

Meek attended the Inverness

budget meeting and told the council he meant no slight when during his city’s budget meeting this week he said that Crystal River was “light-years ahead” of Inverness when it came to its millage rate.

Crystal River’s millage rate is 4.8. Meek made his comment when a Crystal River resident asked why Crystal River could not impose a rollback rate. The council members said they were not offended and understood he meant no harm.

Williams told the Chronicle that comparing the two cities was not fair because Crystal River had a large population of property owners who owned second homes there and did not get homestead exemptions. In addition, Inverness has the re-quirement of providing services as the county seat.

Incorrect GPS direc-tions led to the arrest Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020, of a Dunnellon man now fac-ing two counts of shooting into a car and a home after a driver pulled into his driveway, according to local law enforcement.

A Citrus County Sher-iff ’s deputy arrested Ste-ven Michael Maurer, 49, of Dunnel -lon, on Thursday, after the victims in the car p r e s s e d charges, said Jodi Sanders, C i t r u s County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman. There was an arrest warrant issued for Maurer on Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020.

Sander said on Sept. 4, 2020, a driver and passen-ger of a car were taken to Maurer’s home by mistake by the car’s GPS. She said as the two tried to make a U-turn and leave Maurer’s driveway, Maurer fired several rounds from his home at the car, striking the vehicle. During the shooting, Maurer also missed the car and struck a neighbor’s house, which was occupied at the time.

No one was hurt during the shooting.

Maurer was charged with one count of shooting/throwing a deadly missile into a vehicle and one count of shooting/throwing a deadly missile into a home.

High tides coupled with left-over winds from Hurricane Sally brought some minor flooding to Citrus County’s coast and low-lying areas.

Waters began to creep up around 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 17, 2020, an hour before high tide peaked, Citrus County Director of Emergency Management Chris Evan said Friday.

Evan said a foot-and-a-half of water was reported on Ozello Trail by St. Martins, cre-ating an impassable route for a school bus dropping off students.

Flood waters also rose along U.S. 19 in Crystal River, includ-ing Little Springs Park, Evan said.

This happened as Sally moved from the Florida/ Alabama border to the north, northeast. Its strong storm bands followed behind,

pushing water into Florida’s northwest coast, Evan explained.

“People see a storm go away, and say, ‘Hey, we’re safe,’” Evan said. “Even though they’re moving away, they can

still pose local dangers.”Evan reminded coastal resi-

dents to monitor storms and heed evacuation warnings from officials.

“If you live on the coast, you are very susceptible to storm

surge and floods,” he said, “and with that, you have to make preparations.”

EntErtainmEntVan Morrison targets virus restrictions in

three new songsLONDON — Van Morrison

has never been one to hold back over the years. Why start now?

The 75-year-old singer-song-writer is certainly not holding back on what he thinks of the lockdown restrictions put in place by governments around the world in response to the coronavirus.

Morrison, whose decades as a musician produced classic hits such as “Brown Eyed Girl.” “Glo-ria” and “Moondance,” revealed Friday that he is releasing three protest songs that call for the re-strictions on routine activities to be lifted.

In “No More Lockdown,” the Northern Irishman says the curbs “enslave” people, effec-tively labels the British govern-ment as “fascist bullies,” condemns celebrities for “telling us what we are supposed to feel” and charges scientists for “making up crooked facts.”

“I’m not telling people what to do or think. The government is doing a great job of that already,” Morrison said. “It’s about free-dom of choice, I believe people should have the right to think for themselves.”

Morrison, who was knighted in 2016 for his services to music and to tourism in Northern Ireland, is also releasing “Born To Be Free” and “As I Walked Out.” The former is due to be re-leased on Sept. 25, followed by the other two songs a month later.

Morrison, or “Van the Man” as he is fondly referred to by his legions of fans, plans to perform the songs during his upcoming shows at the London Palladium.

‘Forrest Gump’ author Winston

Groom dead at 77FAIRHOPE, Ala. — Winston

Groom, whose novel “Forrest Gump” was made into a six-Os-car winning 1994 movie that be-came a soaring pop cultural phenomenon, has died at age 77.

Mayor Karin Wilson of Fair-hope, Alabama, said in a mes-sage posted on social media that Groom had died in that south Alabama town. The death was confirmed by a local funeral home, which said arrangements were pending.

“It is with great sadness that I share the passing of our dear friend Winston Groom,” Wilson wrote on Facebook, adding her community had “lost an iconic author.”

“Forrest Gump” was the im-probable tale of a slow-witted man who was a participant or witness to key points of 20th Century history — from Alabama

segregationist Gov. George Wallace’s “stand at the school-house door,” to meetings with presidents. Stars including Tom Hanks gained in popularity through the acclaim the movie and their performances received.

Groom was a 1965 graduate of the University of Alabama, ac-cording to the university, which said it was saddened by the passing of what it called a “legend.”

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey also issued a statement that Groom will forever be remembered for his classic work.

“Saddened to learn that Ala-bama has lost one of our most gifted writers. While he will be remembered for creating Forrest Gump, Winston Groom was a talented journalist & noted au-thor of American history. Our hearts & prayers are extended to his family,” Ivey said in a mes-sage posted online.

Young women especially seemed to embrace the court’s Jewish grand-mother, affectionately call-ing her the Notorious RBG, for her defense of the rights of women and minorities, and the strength and resil-ience she displayed in the face of personal loss and health crises.

Those health issues in-cluded five bouts with can-cer beginning in 1999, falls that resulted in broken ribs, insertion of a stent to clear a blocked artery and assorted other hospitaliza-tions after she turned 75.

She resisted calls by lib-erals to retire during Barack Obama’s presi-dency at a time when Democrats held the Sen-ate and a replacement with similar views could have been confirmed. In-stead, Trump will almost certainly try to push Gins-burg’s successor through the Republican-controlled Senate — and move the conservative court even more to the right.

Ginsburg antagonized Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign in a series of media interviews, including calling him a faker. She soon apologized.

Her appointment by President Bill Clinton in 1993 was the first by a Democrat in 26 years. She initially found a comfort-able ideological home somewhere left of center on a conservative court dominated by Republican appointees. Her liberal voice grew stronger the longer she served.

Ginsburg was a mother of two, an opera lover and an intellectual who watched arguments be-hind oversized glasses for many years, though she ditched them for more fashionable frames in her

later years. At argument sessions in the ornate court-room, she was known for digging deep into case re-cords and for being a stick-ler for following the rules.

She argued six key cases before the court in the 1970s when she was an ar-chitect of the women’s rights movement. She won five.

“Ruth Bader Ginsburg does not need a seat on the Supreme Court to earn her place in the American history books,” Clinton said at the time of her ap-pointment. “She has al-ready done that.”

On the court, where she was known as a facile writer, her most signifi-cant majority opinions were the 1996 ruling that ordered the Virginia Mili-tary Institute to accept women or give up its state funding, and the 2015 deci-sion that upheld indepen-dent commissions some states use to draw congres-sional districts.

Besides civil rights, Ginsburg took an interest in capital punishment, vot-ing repeatedly to limit its use. During her tenure, the court declared it un-constitutional for states to execute the intellectually disabled and killers younger than 18.

In addition, she ques-tioned the quality of law-yers for poor accused murderers. In the most di-visive of cases, including the Bush v. Gore decision in 2000, she was often at odds with the court’s more conservative members — initially Chief Justice Wil-liam H. Rehnquist and Justices Sandra Day O’Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony M. Kennedy and Clarence Thomas.

The division remained the same after John Rob-erts replaced Rehnquist as chief justice, Samuel Alito took O’Connor’s seat, and, under Trump, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kava-naugh joined the court, in seats that had been held by Scalia and Kennedy, respectively.

Ginsburg would say later that the 5-4 decision that settled the 2000 presi-dential election for Re-publican George W. Bush was a “breathtaking epi-sode” at the court.

She was perhaps per-sonally closest on the

court to Scalia, her ideo-logical opposite. Ginsburg once explained that she took Scalia’s sometimes biting dissents as a chal-lenge to be met. “How am I going to answer this in a way that’s a real put-down?” she said.

When Scalia died in 2016, also an election year, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell refused to act on Obama’s nomina-tion of Judge Merrick Gar-land to fill the opening. The seat remained vacant until after Trump’s sur-prising presidential vic-tory. McConnell has said

he would move to confirm a Trump nominee if there were a vacancy this year.

Reached by phone late Friday, Sen. Lindsey Gra-ham, R-S.C., the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, declined to disclose any plans. He said a statement would be forthcoming.

Ginsburg authored pow-erful dissents of her own in cases involving abor-tion, voting rights and pay discrimination against women. She said some were aimed at swaying the opinions of her fellow judges while others were “an appeal to the intelli-gence of another day” in the hopes that they would provide guidance to future courts.

“Hope springs eternal,” she said in 2007, “and when I am writing a dis-sent, I’m always hoping for that fifth or sixth vote — even though I’m disap-pointed more often than not.”

She wrote memorably in 2013 that the court’s deci-sion to cut out a key part of the federal law that had ensured the voting rights of Black people, Hispanics and other minorities was “like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not get-ting wet.”

Change on the court hit Ginsburg especially hard. She dissented forcefully from the court’s decision in 2007 to uphold a nation-wide ban on an abortion procedure that opponents

call partial-birth abortion. The court, with O’Connor still on it, had struck down a similar state ban seven years earlier. The “alarm-ing” ruling, Ginsburg said, “cannot be understood as anything other than an ef-fort to chip away at a right declared again and again by this court — and with increasing comprehen-sion of its centrality to women’s lives.”

In 1999, Ginsburg had surgery for colon cancer and received radiation and chemotherapy. She had surgery again in 2009 after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and in December 2018 for cancer-ous growths on her left lung. Following the last surgery, she missed court sessions for the first time in more than 25 years on the bench.

Ginsburg also was treated with radiation for a tumor on her pancreas in August 2019. She main-tained an active schedule even during the three weeks of radiation. When she revealed a recurrence of her cancer in July 2020, Ginsburg said she re-mained “fully able” to con-tinue as a justice.

Ginsburg once said that she had not entered the law as an equal-rights champion. “I thought I could do a lawyer’s job better than any other,” she wrote. “I have no talent in the arts, but I do write fairly well and analyze problems clearly.”

Weekly roundup: ‘Wobble’ brings plenty of waterJim SaunderS

News Service of Florida

TALLAHASSEE — And then came Sally.

Sixteen years to the day after Hurricane Ivan pummeled Northwest Florida, Hurricane Sally caused massive flooding Wednesday in the Pensacola area and knocked out power to homes and businesses.

Sally didn’t make a direct hit — landfall was in Gulf Shores, Ala. But that was close enough to cause major damage and offer an unwelcome reminder that the 2020 hurricane season still has a long way to go.

Utility crews from other parts of the state quickly started lin-ing up to help restore electricity in areas such as Escambia and Santa Rosa counties and in Ala-bama. Search and rescue teams also fanned out to try to find res-idents who might be trapped or in danger.

Gov. Ron DeSantis, Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nunez, state Division of Emergency Management Di-rector Jared Moskowitz and state Department of Transporta-tion Secretary Kevin Thibault took an aerial tour Thursday, but DeSantis said he expected impacts to be worse than what they could see from above be-cause water caused much of the damage. In addition to heavy rain, the Category 2 hurricane caused storm surge that report-edly topped 5 feet.

“I think you’re going to have to really just get boots on the ground to get the full impact of what happened,” DeSantis said. “Clearly, there were defi-nitely still some areas where it was obvious that you had some major flooding. There are other areas which, from the bird’s eye view, I don’t think probably did full justice to the actual damage that we saw in-side the homes.”

The state also was grappling with damage caused by a barge that hit the Pensacola Bay Bridge, a key link from Gulf Breeze and Pensacola Beach to Pensacola. DeSantis said the

transportation department was looking at the possibility of neg-ligence by the barge owner, but he noted that the owner might have been following models from the National Hurricane Center that showed Hurricane Sally headed toward Mississippi.

“We got a wobble to the east. And that obviously had greater impacts for Pensacola,” DeSan-tis said.

Reasons for a toast?

Bar owners across Florida could welcome back the regu-lars Monday, after DeSantis’ ad-ministration lifted an order that prevented on-site imbibing at many establishments.

A similar effort to allow bars to operate got short-circuited in June because of a widespread lack of compliance with safety measures aimed at preventing the spread of the coronavirus. But Department of Business and Professional Regulation Secre-tary Halsey Beshears said he

thinks bar and craft-brewery owners will do a better job this time of enforcing measures such as indoor occupancy limits.

Beshears also said a lot of re-sponsibility rests with custom-ers of the establishments.

“For the people that don’t want to go out, don’t want to so-cialize, or they have a health concern, they need to stay home. They really do. They don’t need to bash all those people that want to be out and socialize,” Beshears said. “Now, the flip side of that is to the patrons that want that socialization and want to be in the bar. Be respectful of everybody else. Help that busi-ness guy out. Have some per-sonal responsibility because we can’t shut this down again. We’ve got to find a way to exist in the new way we are operating in now, so they can make a living.”

Beshears and DeSantis had clearly been eager to let bars and craft breweries get back in business as part of broader ef-forts to reopen the economy amid the pandemic.

The state got some good news

Friday, when the Florida De-partment of Economic Opportu-nity announced that the unemployment rate dropped from 11.4% in July to 7.4% in August.

“Since we are seeing that job gains were happening across al-most all industries, this is just an opening back up of economic activity,” said Adrienne John-ston, chief of the department’s Bureau of Labor Market Statistics.

But Johnston also offered a word of caution.

“We see the unemployment rate dropping pretty dramati-cally over the month, but I wouldn’t put too much into a one- or two-month trend,” she said. “It is going to take us a little bit of time before we really know the shape of this recovery.”

Full courtAfter a legal battle, DeSantis

was foiled in his attempt to ap-point Palm Beach County Cir-cuit Judge Renatha Francis to the Florida Supreme Court, as she did not meet a requirement

of being a member of The Flor-ida Bar for 10 years.

But that doesn’t mean DeSan-tis’ efforts to shape a conserva-tive Supreme Court suffered a setback.

DeSantis on Monday ap-pointed Jamie Grosshans, who had served as a judge on the 5th District Court of Appeal since 2018, as the Supreme Court’s seventh justice. And he made clear that Grosshans shares his conservative legal philosophy.

“She understands the proper role of the court is to apply the law as it is written, apply the Constitution as it is written, not to legislate from the bench. I think she will bring that commit-ment to the Florida Supreme Court,” DeSantis said.

Grosshans, a University of Mississippi Law School gradu-ate, is DeSantis’ fifth appoint-ment to the Supreme Court and is the only woman on the sev-en-member court. Grosshans said she stands on the “shoul-ders of champions” who fought for women’s voices to be heard. The last woman justice, Barbara Lagoa, was named in 2019 to the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

“I do not take this role lightly,” Grosshans said before quoting U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clar-ence Thomas. “The Constitution tasks the political branches, not the judiciary, with developing the laws that govern our society.”

Year-over-year, the picture is not quite as bright.

Compared to August 2019, the labor force decreased by 905, the number of employed is down by 1,895 and there were 990 more unemployed.

Bruce Register, the county’s economic development director, said the positive upward trend is a result of two things: more people returning to work and the success of the federally funded financial assistance programs that allowed busi-nesses to stay afloat during the roughest months of the pandemic.

It will be interesting to see whether the federal government follows up with any more assistance programs to keep the economy thriving, he said.

“I think that some folks are hoping it will continue this upward trend and help us crawl out of the shock of (these)

shutdowns,” Register said.

Citrus’ 7.3% rate was the 11th highest in the state.

Osceola County had the highest unemployment rate in Florida at 15.1% while Lafayette County had the lowest at 3.4%.

Florida’s rate in Au-gust was 7.4% and the nation was at 8.5%.

Rusty Skinner, chief ex-ecutive officer for CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion, said the lat-est unemployment report shows “positive signs of a rebounding economy.”

“Businesses are either filling vacancies through rehiring or hir-ing new employees,” he said. “While we still have too many residents that are without jobs, they should be encouraged by these statistics.”

FWC officers won’t try and capture the bear un-less it creates issues, Parker said.

“With it wandering around like it is, we can’t put a trap up, which would be a last-ditched effort,” she said. “We want people to do their part, have this bear think there’s no food in the area and go back in the woods.”

Residents can prevent the bear from staking a claim in their backyard by removing or securing at-tractants on their prop-erty. This includes: BBQ grills, garbage, pet food and bird feeders.

It’s also illegal in Flor-ida to feed bears.

For information on liv-ing with bears, visit myfwc.com/wildlifehabitats/ wildlife/bear/living.

Florida’s sole species of bear is the black bear, and around 4,000 of them live in the Sunshine State.

There used to be as few as 300 black bears in the 1970s, but the population grew to where the animal was removed from the state’s threatened species list in 2012.

However, growing

human and bear popula-tions are resulting in more interactions.

To see a map of reported bear sightings, visit tinyurl.com/y5lgx7my.

Bear sightings in Citrus County are common, ac-cording to FWC, with the likelihood increasing along the coasts of Citrus, Hernando and Pasco counties.

Bears aren’t aggressive but have caused injuries in the past, according to FWC.

Mother bears raising cubs can be especially dangerous.

People should never ap-proach a bear, and should carry bear spray or mace to help defend themselves against one.

Dog-walkers should also keep their pets close to them during walks as ca-nines can trigger a bear’s defensive behavior.

CLEVELAND — Baker Mayfield threw two touch-down passes, Nick Chubb ran for two scores and 124 yards and the Cleve-land Browns gave coach Kevin Stefanski his first NFL victory Thursday night by beating the Cincinnati Bengals 35-30 on the NFL’s 100th birthday.

Antetokounmpo repeats as MVPLAKE BUENA VISTA —

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s historic year earned him a historic awards sweep.

The Milwaukee forward is the NBA’s Most Valuable Player for the second con-secutive season, receiving that award Friday. He got the Defensive Player of the Year award earlier in these NBA playoffs.

The 25-year-old Antetok-ounmpo becomes just the third player in league history to win MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season, joining only Hall of Famers Michael Jor-dan and Hakeem Olajuwon.

Antetokounmpo — who was in his native Athens, Greece, with his family when the award was announced — received 85 votes from the 100-person panel of global sports writers and broadcasters who cover the league, plus the one addi-tional vote granted by win-ning fan balloting.

Two more games get postponedBaylor’s season opener

against Houston, scheduled less than a week ago, was one of two Bowl Subdivision games postponed Friday — the day before before they were supposed to play.

Florida Atlantic’s opener against Georgia Southern was postponed earlier in the day, following the re-sults of FAU’s COVID-19 testing Thursday. In both cases, the schools in-volved said they would try to find make-up dates.

The postponements il-lustrate the uncertainty sur-rounding college sports. The number of FBS games postponed or canceled be-cause of COVID-19 issues since Aug. 26 is 16 and the pandemic’s impact is being felt in other sports; one of college basketball’s pre-mier tournaments is mov-ing from Hawaii to North Carolina and the NCAA de-layed the start of the bas-ketball season to Nov. 25.

In putting off its opener, Baylor said it was unable to meet COVID-19 roster thresholds set by the Big 12.

SPORTS BRIEFSUCF

kicks off season

Miami meets Louisville

Paul Newberry AP sports writer

ATLANTA — Jeff Sims hardly looked like a freshman in his first college game.

Sure, there were a couple of early intercep-tions he’d like to have back, but no one was complaining after Sims rallied Georgia Tech to an upset at Florida State in the season opener.

Now, Sims is set to face an even stiffer chal-lenge when the Yellow Jackets host No. 14 Cen-tral Florida on Saturday.

He’s quickly become a big man on campus, rev-eling in a wave of acco-lades after becoming the first true freshman quarterback in Georgia Tech history to lead the team to victory in a sea-son opener.

Sims completed 23 of 34 passes for 277 yards — the most completions by a Yellow Jackets quarterback since 2005 — in a 16-13 victory over the Seminoles.

Don’t expect him to revel in the adulation. The day after the game, he was the first player to show up for meetings, according to coach Geoff Collins, and the first player to hit the practice field.

“My mom always taught me not to let any-thing get in my head,” Sims said. “After the game, she always told me to celebrate that night, but the next day you have to get back to work. That’s exactly what I did. I pushed off everything that hap-pened (last) Saturday. Now I’m preparing for UCF. I want to be a leader on this team and do whatever I can to help this team win.”

Georgia Tech (1-0) will be facing a team that knows a lot about winning.

Over the last three years, UCF has won 35 of 39 games, becom-ing one of the best Group of Five programs in the country. The Knights’ opener is their only game against a Power Five opponent during the regular sea-son, and they’re eager to shine before a national television audience.

“We’ve been good, I feel, for the last three to four years,” linebacker Eriq Gilyard said. “We’ve been playing with kind of a chip on our shoulder to prove everybody wrong. This year we’re not trying to prove anybody wrong, we’re trying to prove ourselves right. We know how good we are.”

ACC showdown of ranked teams

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Im-pressive season-opening victories by No. 17 Miami and No. 18 Louisville has the schools ranked — maybe sooner than some expected.

But the recognition has both motivated to sustain the success as they begin Atlantic Coast Conference play Saturday night under the spotlight of a prime-time national television audi-ence. The schools initially weren’t scheduled to meet, but the coronavirus pan-demic shook up scheduling nationwide and led to the ACC adopting a 10-game slate that has the Hurri-canes and Cardinals play-ing for the second consecutive season.

For the host Cardinals, it’s a chance to avenge last November’s 52-27 drub-bing by the Hurricanes. Very little worked that game

Bolts face Stars for Cup

NHL Playoffs culminate in unique FinalStePheN whyNo

AP hockey writer

EDMONTON, Alberta — The leaves are starting to change color around the NHL playoff bubble, and, at most, seven games re-main before the Stanley Cup is handed out.

On Saturday night, two of the league’s southern-most teams begin a Stan-ley Cup Final like none other in the great white north when the Dallas Stars and Tampa Bay Lightning face off in Game 1. The Texas and Florida heat that would have been around in late May and June has been replaced by a chill in the air with teams from nontraditional markets vying for hockey’s biggest prize in the north-ernmost city in the NHL.

“We don’t know what the temperature is outside be-cause we’re never outside, so it doesn’t come into play,” Stars general man-ager Jim Nill said from the confines of the bubble. “We’re 75, 80 degrees here all the time, so it’s perfect — perfect environment.”

The Stars and Lightning would take any environ-ment for a chance to win the Cup. Dallas players, coaches and staff have been here since July 27, and Tampa Bay joined them Sept. 5 after spend-ing six weeks in Toronto

and flying cross-country.Dallas has been waiting

since finishing off the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 5 of the Western Conference final Monday. Tampa Bay won the East on Thursday night by beat-ing the New York Island-ers in Game 6 of that series on Anthony Cirelli’s over-time winner.

It’s a quick turnaround for the Lightning, who don’t mind that for this opportunity.

“This is unlike any other Stanley Cup final where we’d get days rest,” coach Jon Cooper said. “If you were going to tell me, ‘Hey Coop, you get to play in the Stanley Cup final, you’re only going to get 45 hours to rest before the game, but you’re going to get to play in it,’ I’m taking that all day.”

The Stars coaching staff pre-scouted each poten-tial opponent, with Rick Bowness and assistant John Stevens diving into the Lightning the past few days.

“We’ll be well- prepared,” Bowness said. “There’ll be no surprises.”

This year is full of sur-prises. After the Lightning skated off with the Prince of Wales Trophy for win-ning the East, Blake Cole-man was asked about his journey from being traded in February with his preg-nant wife two weeks from giving birth through to the bubble and said, “It’s been kind of crazy, but whose 2020 hasn’t been crazy?”

The NHL is one round from capping its crazy sea-son and crowning a

champion. Some things to watch in the Dallas-Tampa Bay Stanley Cup Final:

RUSSIAN GOALIESIt’s the first time in NHL

history that the final fea-tures two Russian starting goaltenders. The Light-ning’s Andrei Vasilevskiy played in the final as a rookie in 2015, while the Stars’ Anton Khudobin hadn’t started a playoff game until this year.

Nikolai Khabibulin is the only Russian goalie to win the Stanley Cup when he did so with Tampa Bay in 2004.

“I want both guys to win, but it’s impossible,” Khabibulin said. “I know both guys, so I wish them both well and play the best that they can play and show what they can.”

CONN SMYTHE WATCH

If the Lightning win it all, Vasilevskiy, defense-man Victor Hedman and forwards Brayden Point and Nikita Kucherov all have strong cases to earn playoff MVP honors. For the Stars, it could be Khu-dobin or captain Jamie Benn, and their leading scorer is actually defense-man Miro Heiskanen.

The 21-year-old Finn is playing beyond his years and skating circles around defenders.

“When I was young kid, I was skating outdoors, so that’s where it’s coming from,” Heiskanen said. “I try to use it as much as I can and try to skate a lot with the puck and without it, so it helps in my

offensive game and defen-sive game.”

HEALTHY OR NOTOne thing that gave this

unusual postseason the potential to produce some high-quality hockey is the time off to heal injuries unlike the usual grind after an 82-game regular season. The Stars go into the final almost totally healthy, though the Light-ning are dealing with some potentially signifi-cant injuries to Point and Cirelli.

Cooper said Cirelli re-turned to Game 6 of the East final Thursday and played “basically on one leg.” Point didn’t look right after missing Games 3 and 5 with injury and was using a massaging device on the bench between shifts.

Lightning general man-ager Julien BriseBois also doesn’t expect forward Steven Stamkos to play in Game 1 but hasn’t ruled him out for the series. Stamkos hasn’t played since February.

Stars winger Radek Faksa is among those con-sidered “unfit to play” for Dallas. Bowness wouldn’t say if a few extra days off would allow Faksa — who could be seen with his left wrist wrapped — to return to the lineup in the final.

Stars defenseman Ste-phen Johns hasn’t played since Aug. 11. Usual start-ing goalie Ben Bishop is skating again, though even if he’s healthy, the net probably belongs to Khu-dobin given the way the 34-year-old is playing.

Associated PressDallas Stars left wing Jamie Benn, right, backhands a shot past Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy, left, for a goal during the third period of a Jan. 27, 2020 game in Dallas. Two of the southernmost teams in the NHL are meeting in the Stanley Cup Final in the great white north. The Stars and the Lightning are facing off in the bubble in Edmonton, Alberta, starting with Game 1 Saturday.

Reed takes the lead in US OpenScoring tightens at Winged Foot

Associated Press

MAMARONECK, N.Y. — Every shot required full attention. Every hole was a test. Every par was valued.

Patrick Reed embraced every as-pect of it Friday when the U.S. Open lived up to its reputation as the toughest test in golf, and so did Winged Foot.

“I love the grind,” Reed said, barely unable to contain a grin.

From the bunker, he twice saved par. From ankle-deep rough behind the green to back pins, he walked off with two more pars. Throw in five birdies to offset the inevitable mis-takes, and Reed had an even-par 70 that gave him a one-shot lead going into a U.S. Open that feels as though it’s just getting started.

“It’s almost like they set it up to ease our way into it, and then showed us what it’s supposed to re-ally be like,” Reed said.

So does Bryson DeChambeau, the former U.S. Amateur champion and current muscleman who powered and putted his way to a 68, the low-est score on a day Winged Foot played to an average score of 75.25.

After an opening round in which 21 players broke par, Winged Foot allowed only three players under par. Nine others shot even. Every-one else was hanging on for dear life.

Reed was at 4-under 136, and only

five other players remained in red numbers. DeChambeau is the only player to be under par in both rounds, the easier one and the bru-tal one.

“When I play well in these condi-tions, it’s a lot more enjoyable,” he said. “If I had to look back on it, I would say that this today is a more enjoyable test after I’m done be-cause it shows who executed the shots the best, for sure.”

This was the Winged Foot every-one has heard about. This is the U.S. Open everyone expected.

Rafa Cabrera-Bello of Spain and Harris English each had a 70 and were at 2-under 138.

They were joined by Justin Thomas, who opened with a 65 — the lowest ever at Winged Foot for a U.S. Open — and lost all those shots to par after 10 holes. Thomas then delivered a 5-wood from 228 yards into the wind on the par-3 third hole and made a slick, 15-foot, double-breaking birdie putt to steady himself. He scratched out a 73 and is right in it.

Jason Kokrak (71) was the only other player under par at 1-under 139.

Tiger Woods is among those who won’t be around to experience it. He had a pair of double bogeys at the

Glasnow, Rays beat O’s 2-1DaviD GinsburG

AP sports writer

BALTIMORE — Tyler Glasnow struck out 10 over five innings to help the Tampa Bay Rays beat Alex Cobb and the Baltimore Ori-oles 2-1 Friday night.

Glasnow (4-1) allowed one run, four hits and a pair of walks. The right-hander has won four straight decisions, a streak that began with a 13-strikeout performance against the Orioles on Aug. 25.

The Rays clinched a postseason berth on Thursday night, and now the AL East leaders are looking to charge into the playoffs as division champions. Tampa Bay started the day with a 3 1/2-game lead over the Yankees.

“We want to win the East, and to do that we’re going to have to play really well,“ manager Kevin Cash said before the game. “You do that and you’ve got momentum going into the postseason.”

The Rays are trending in that di-rection. They’ve won six of eight, including the first three games of this five-game set, and are 9-1-4 in their last 14 series.

Cobb (1-5) gave up two runs and four hits over six innings. Despite those solid numbers, the right-hander fell to 0-4 against the team he pitched for six seasons through 2017 before signing a four-year, $57 million contract with Baltimore.

Since joining the Orioles, Cobb is 0-11 with a 5.29 ERA in 18 starts at Camden Yards.

Cobb’s problem in this game was

that the 6-foot-8 Glasnow allowed no margin for error. Cobb gave up a two-out RBI single to Nate Lowe in the first inning and was victimized by his own right fielder in the third.

Pressed against the wall on a deep fly by leadoff hitter Yoshi Tsutsugo, DJ Stewart dropped the ball on what was ruled a triple. Two batters later, Brandon Lowe hit an RBI single for a 2-0 lead.

Austin Hays led off the bottom of the fourth with a home run, but Glasnow and the Rays bullpen al-lowed nothing more. Ryan Sher-riff, the fourth Tampa Bay reliever, worked the ninth to earn his first big league save.

TRAINER’S ROOMRays: OF Austin Meadows was

placed on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain that will keep him sidelined until deep in the playoffs. “We’re going to have to play really, really well to see him at any point the rest of the season,” Cash said. .... LH Cody Reed (finger numbness) was moved to the 45-day IL, ending his season.

UP NEXTRays: RH Charlie Morton (1-2,

5.14 ERA) starts Saturday night in the fourth game of the series. Mor-ton allowed a combined six runs and 10 hits over 9 1/3 innings in his last two starts.

Orioles: RH Jorge López (2-0, 5.23) is coming off his best outing of the season, allowing just one run in seven innings against Atlanta.

for Louisville, and players are eager to show how they’ve progressed.

“Last year, the game kind of ran away from us, Cardinals center Cole Bentley said. “This year, we feel motivated to play better and just have a better game overall.”

Louisville comes in confident after last week’s 35-21 win over Western Kentucky that required overcoming a disastrous opening series and 7-0 hole. The Cardinals regrouped to roll up 487 yards on offense and contribute big plays on both sides of the ball.

Miami enters well rested after totaling 492 yards in its 31-14 win over UAB on Sept. 10. The ‘Canes also climbed from an early deficit to rush for 337 yards, led by Cam’Ron Harris’ 134 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries.

Second-year Miami coach Manny Diaz knows Louisville is dif-ferent from the team his squad pounced on last fall. The ’Canes have changed as well and aim to prove it on a national stage.

”We executed very well in all three phases,” Diaz said, add-ing that won’t make a difference this year. “I would imagine that they’ll be highly motivated to show that they’re not the same team they were that day.

“And guess what? We’re highly motivated to show that we’re not the same team we were that day as well.”

Kelly’s No. 7 Irish welcome Scott’s rebuilding South Florida

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — First-year South Florida coach Jeff

Scott is looking forward to the gamble his Bulls are taking this Saturday in visiting No. 7 Notre Dame.

The 39-year-old Scott, fresh off a 27-6 opening victory over The Citadel, is planning to roll the dice and see how things work out against the Fighting Irish in the game that was hastily scheduled in August as a replacement.

“Where we are right now as a program, we’re playing with house money going into this game,” Scott said of the Bulls’ second visit to Notre Dame Stadium, where the Irish have a 19-game winning streak. “We can let loose as players and coaches and have fun and see where it all lands at the end of the game.”

Notre Dame overcame a sluggish start last week in a 27-13 win over Duke to open the season. Coach Brian Kelly is wary about this one-game hiatus from its one-season-only At-lantic Coast Conference schedule. He remembers USF’s visit for the 2011 season opener, a 23-20 upset of then-No. 16 Notre Dame.

“(Scott’s) certainly going to have a group of young men that are excited about this opportunity to play us at Notre Dame,” said Kelly, who is mindful that one of them is Bulls offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr., the 27-year-old son of the coach Kelly replaced in 2010. “(Weis is) a young, bright star in this profession who has done great things in a very short period of time as a coordinator.”

Coach and coordinator kept USF’s quick-tempo offense close to the vest and mostly on the ground last week with 302 rushing yards, led by running back Kelley Joiner Jr. (eight carries, 88 yards, one touchdown) and 5-foot-5 slotback Johnny Ford (71 yards on nine carries). Quarterbacks Jordan McCloud and Noah Johnson combined for 14-of-20 passing for 92 yards and Johnson added 49 more rushing.

end of the back nine, and two birdies over his last three holes gave him a 77. He missed the cut by four shots, the eighth time in his last 15 majors he won’t be around for the weekend.

“It feels like the way the golf course is changing, is turning, that anybody who makes the cut has the opportu-nity to win this championship,” Woods said. “I didn’t get myself that opportunity.”

Neither did Phil Mickelson, who had his highest 36-hole score in 29 ap-pearances in the one major he hasn’t won. Ditto for Jordan Spieth, whose 81 was his highest score in a major. PGA champion Collin Morikawa missed an 8-foot birdie putt on the final hole that cost him a chance to keep playing.

Trying to go 2 for 2 as senior, Furyk leads at Pebble Beach

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — Jim Furyk

birdied four of the last six holes for an 8-under 64 and the first-round lead in the PGA Tour Champions’ Pure Insurance Championship.

Trying to join Arnold Palmer and Bruce Fleisher as the only players to win their first two starts on the senior tour, Furyk had a one-stroke lead over Ernie Els, Cameron Beckman and Stephen Leaney.

Green back on top in Portland, tied for lead with Clanton

PORTLAND, Ore. — Hannah Green had to wait an extra day to open her title defense in the Cambria Portland Classic. Once she got going, about the only thing that slowed her was a 1 1/2-hour lightning delay and fading light.

Green shot a 6-under 66 at Columbia Edgewater for a share of the lead with Cydney Clanton in the LPGA Tour event reduced to 54 holes because of poor air quality caused by wildfires. Green was able to finish in fading light, while many other afternoon starters were still on the course when darkness suspended play.

AP Business Writers

Wall Street capped another turbulent week of trading Friday with a broad slide in stocks that left the S&P 500 with its third-straight weekly loss.

The S&P 500 fell 1.1%, led once again by a sell-off in technology companies, with Apple, Amazon and Alphabet weighing particularly on the market. Technology stocks and other companies that powered the market’s strong come-back this year have suddenly lost mo-mentum this month amid worries that they have become too expensive.

The sell-off wiped out the last of the solid gains the market saw to start the week. The S&P 500 is on track for its first monthly loss since March. Septem-ber is historically the worst month for stocks.

“The market has been poised to just pull back, take a breather,” said Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist at Pru-dential Financial. “Raising capital is prudent during a month that is known statistically, historically for being diffi-cult for the market.”

The S&P 500 fell 37.54 points to 3,319.47. The decline marks the the first 3-week losing streak for the benchmark index since last October. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 244.56 points, or 0.9%, to 27,657.42. The Nasdaq composite shed an early gain, losing 116.99 points, or 1.1%, to 10,793.28. Smaller stocks also fell, with the Russell 2000 index of small caps giving up 5.82 points, or 0.4%, to 1,536.78.

Momentum in the market shifted Wednesday after the Federal Reserve said the outlook for the U.S. economy remains uncertain and policymakers expect short-term interest rates to stay at record lows through 2023. Low rates typically turbocharge the market by en-couraging investors to pay higher prices for stocks, but some investors may have been looking for the Fed to be more aggressive.

Growth in some areas of the economy has also slowed after supplemental un-employment benefits and other aid from the federal government expired, and partisan disagreements in Congress are holding up a possible renewal of support. Investors say it’s essential that such aid arrives.

“To the extent that you don’t get an additional fiscal cushion, the economy is going to be impacted by it,” said Brian

Levitt, global market strategist at Invesco.

Rising tensions between the world’s two largest economies are also continu-ing to keep markets on edge. The United States said on Friday that it will ban downloads of the Chinese apps TikTok and WeChat on Sunday. It cited national security and data privacy concerns.

President Donald Trump’s targeting of the Chinese tech industry has caused intermittent worries in the market about a possible retaliation against the U.S. industry.

Big Tech stocks have stumbled sharply this month on worries that their prices have grown too expensive follow-ing their virtuosic performance through the pandemic. Surging shares of Apple, Microsoft, Amazon and others helped carry Wall Street back to record heights, even as the pandemic walloped much of the economy, as the coronavirus accel-erated work-from-home and other trends that benefit them.

But they suddenly lost momentum two weeks ago, causing the market to swing with them. Because these compa-nies have grown so massive, their stock movements have huge sway over broad market indexes, such as the S&P 500.

“We certainly got a little short-term overbought and we headed into a time of the year that is not great for markets,” Levitt said.

On Friday, several Big Tech stocks continued slipping. Apple dropped 3.2%, Microsoft fell 1.2% and Amazon slid 1.8%.

Also on the long list of concerns for markets is how the pandemic pro-gresses, whether a vaccine for COVID-19 could indeed be available in early 2021 as many investors expect and what November’s U.S. presidential election will do to the economy.

A preliminary report on Friday said that consumer sentiment is improving at a faster pace than economists ex-pected, which is key for an economy where spending by consumers is the main driver. But it follows other reports this week that showed growth in retail sales slowed last month and the number of layoffs across the country remains stubbornly high.

One factor that may have helped make trading bumpier than usual Fri-day is an event known as “quadruple witching,” which marks the expiration of futures and options on stocks and in-dexes. The event can drive swings in prices.

Stocks fall as market decline extends

Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline got a boost Friday after the EU Commission finalized a deal allowing its 27 members to buy up to 300 million doses of a potential COVID-19 vaccine from the European drugmakers.

It’s the second COVID-19 vaccine contract signed by the bloc, following last month’s deal with AstraZeneca for up to 400 million doses.

“With several countries in Europe experiencing new outbreaks after the summer period, a safe and effective

vaccine is more instrumental than ever to overcome this pandemic and its devastating effects on our economies

and societies,” said Stella Kyriakides, the EU’s health commissioner.

Sanofi and GSK announced earlier this month that they anticipate positive results from their phase 1/2 clinical trial in early December, allowing for near-immediate initiation of a phase 3 trial.

Shares in Paris-based Sanofi rose 0.7% on Friday to $52.44. London’s GSK slipped 0.5% to $39.26.

DES MOINES, Iowa — The federal government said Friday that it will give farmers an additional $14 billion to compensate them for the difficulties they have experienced selling their crops, milk and meat because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture released details of its plan that it said will provide “financial assistance that gives producers the ability to absorb in-creased marketing costs associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.”

President Donald Trump first men-tioned the aid in a speech Thursday night in Wisconsin, a presidential bat-tleground state that is considered vital for his chances to win a second term.

The additional payments illustrate the importance of farmers as a voting block to Trump’s reelection. He ad-dressed them in Wisconsin directly, say-ing “you gotta love Trump” and promising favorable trade and regula-tory changes, as well as tax cuts.

“Now we have to get four more years to cement it, and to do additional things,” he said.

The coronavirus pandemic has cre-ated several problems for farmers. Low-ered availability of labor has reduced crop and livestock production as well as processing capacity in meatpacking plants and other facilities. These prob-lems have pushed prices that farmers receive for commodities lower. They’ve also seen a drop in demand for some products as fewer people have been eat-ing out. Farm households also have suf-fered from loss of income from off-farm jobs that they use to fund farm produc-tion needs, household living expenses and payments on farm business debt.

Agriculture groups applauded the ad-ditional money, much of which will come in direct payments for crops that

meet a specified threshold of price de-cline. They include corn, soybeans, wheat and some cotton.

Chicken, eggs, milk, beef cattle, pigs and lambs also will be covered, as will tobacco, wool, alfalfa, oats, peanuts, rice and hemp.

Farmer can begin signing up for the money on Monday.

“We listened to feedback received from farmers, ranchers and agricultural organizations about the impact of the pandemic on our nations’ farms and ranches, and we developed a program to better meet the needs of those im-pacted,” Agriculture Secretary Secre-tary Perdue said in a statement.

The program places a payment cap of $250,000 per person or farm entity for all commodities combined. Gross in-come can’t be more than $900,000, un-less at least 75% or more of their income is derived from farming, ranching or forestry-related activities.

In April the administration rolled out a $19 billion program, most of which was in the form of direct farm payments. That followed $28 billion the federal government gave farmers to compen-sate for two years of disruptions caused by Trump’s tariff battles with trading partners.

Some crop and livestock groups have criticized the way previous aid was di-vided, and National Farmers Union President Rob Larew made it clear in a statement that farmers want the money distributed fairly.

“The first round of funding, though greatly appreciated, was not without its flaws,” Larew said. “Not only did it favor large farms over smaller ones, it also sent millions of dollars to foreign- owned operations and excluded some farmers entirely.”

He asked for congressional oversight and for the USDA to ensure that pay-ments “are commensurate with demon-strated need.”

Minimum wage a feel-good issue

Recently, I have been read-ing, with some amusement, the rolling controversy re-garding the proposed in-crease to the minimum wage. I am a retired teacher. One of the subjects I taught, at the high school level, was eco-nomics. There seems to be confusion about what mini-mum wage really is. A reading of any of the works of the Nobel economist Milton Freidman can verify, but here’s what it is:

The minimum wage is ex-actly that: an entry-level wage. It never was or will be a living wage. It was not meant to be such. It is mainly for part-time first jobs. Worse, every attempt to make it what it is not has proven damaging to those seeking to enter the workforce. Freidman’s research shows that each time minimum wage has been increased, the avail-able jobs decrease. This is be-cause necessity is the mother of invention.

My first job was minimum wage. It was 1964 and I was 16. I worked a few hours after school as a soda jerk in a local drive-in restaurant. That was the name for the guy who poured the root beer into the cold mugs and put them on trays for the carhops (re-member those?). I had no in-tention of doing that as a career. But it did provide me with valuable funds to add to my college fund. Sometime later, a minimum wage in-crease made it more econom-ically feasible for the drive-ins to put in a few ta-bles or have carryout, and they did away with carhops. My job was replaced by the self-serve soda dispensers.

So went the way of many entry-level jobs, such as grape pickers, dishwashers and parking garage atten-dants, to name a few. If you don’t think that will happen again, have you noticed the automated ordering kiosks at many of the fast-food restau-rants? Probably before the wage level hits $15, there will be few, if any, human order takers anymore.

In reality, the minimum wage issue is mostly one of those feel good issues. Rais-ing it can make many feel good and self-righteously con-gratulate themselves for car-ing about the poor, while actually doing more harm than good.

Trash collectors matter, too

We hear about how the doc-tors, nurses and medical help people, are trying to stay away from the virus, also the fire people and police. That’s good. I pray for them, too.

But did you ever think about the little guy? Like every Mon-day, a truck pulls up and two men pick up my rubbish. They go from door to door picking up bags and boxes and barrels full of rubbish, not knowing what germs or virus is on them. They do this all week, picking up tons of trash.

My thanks goes out to them. To let them know how I feel, I leave two cans of soda on my barrel every Monday and pray they have a safe day.

Let them know you care.

Make septic-to-sewer a top priority

An open letter to Rep. Ralph Massullo:

I want to personally ac-knowledge your stand on en-vironmental consciousness in your article in the Chronicle. Being environmentally con-scious and publicly display-ing that responsibility takes a fair amount of intestinal fortitude.

Having said this, it is my opinion that the person or persons who move to the

forefront, fight this fight to victory are going to be the ones whose names will be for-ever etched in stone, marble, statues, placards and streets for eternity. Heck, you might even have a building named after you.

But that’s not the reason to stand up and push for resto-ration of our natural water-ways. There are many reasons, but certainly, as a physician by education and training, you more than many know that the public health is important. And as you elo-quently stated in your article, “nutrients” — fertilizers and bleeding sewers into our en-vironment — pose a health crisis to us.

The recent election here in Citrus County may very well be a light at the end of a tun-nel, and it might not be an on-going train! What we have seen is a shift in our county government with the election of two very qualified persons who picked up the banner to become public servants, and they are women.

This is a breath of fresh air that is being injected into our somewhat stale political envi-ronment, though I must thank any and all who assume the somewhat thankless job of public service.

Having said all this, the Blue Water Forest/Spring Cove Road neighborhood in Homosassa urge you, too, to pick up the banner and place our much-needed septic-to-sewer phase as a priority for state funding. We have had little support to move us up a 10-phase list mandated by the BOCC. And Rep. Massullo, our phase has the most home-owners with houses and flow-ing septic tanks on the south side of the Homosassa River. We outnumber any of the other phases by far. I am a cit-izen whose glass is always half full but having experi-enced the unreasonable and questionable push back from the county commission is not only puzzling, but environ-mentally unsound.

We feel enthused by the po-litical turn of events, locally. We firmly feel that those who champion a just, environmen-tally and fiscally responsible cause is going to be that person who just does the right thing.

Rep. Massullo, please, we urge that person to be you.

Traffic signal long overdue

This letter is pertaining to the front page article in the June 15 issue of the Chronicle. I saved my copy of that issue because I was involved in a collision at that intersection. Technically, I was at fault and stated as much at the time of the accident. Fortunately, no one was injured in the acci-dent and my insurance paid for the damage to both vehicles involved. I go through that in-tersection every day as I com-mute to my business in Ocala every day from my home is in Beverly Hills. The reason I am writing is that intersection is a very dangerous and many acci-dents happen there, including a fatal accident recently. Why is it so dangerous? Because there is no signal! I’m sure that the highway and law

enforcement authorities would confirm that frequency of acci-dents at that intersection.

Given the frequency of acci-dents at that intersection, I was surprised to read that some commissioners said they saw no need for it. I be-lieve many of those accidents are caused because north-bound vehicles on County-Road 491 often can’t see southbound vehicles close be-hind vehicles signaling a turn from State Road 200 on to C.R. 491 south, especially if the southbound vehicle sig-naling a turn onto C.R. 491 is large or has started turning into the turn lane blocking the view of the road behind the turning vehicle. I’m happy to read that a long overdue traffic light is finally planned for this very dangerous inter-section. Get the accident fre-quency data for this intersection and show it to those who think there is no need for those who think there is no need.

Enhance dashboard transparency

Editor’s note: A copy of this letter was sent to the Citrus County School District.

Re: COVID-19 Dashboard: As from its inception, I have kept an eye on the daily re-ports. Clearly, a lot of parents are depending on accurate and updated data which en-ables them to acquire on on-going perception of how the number of cases progress.

The website clearly states that it reflects cases from the day before. There is no doubt in my mind that choices as to how to display the number of cases have been well consid-ered by you. Showing snap-shots caused me to create my own database and log in every day in the morning and write down the totals, so I can mon-itor that myself.

Today, however, I observed that the two student infec-tions as shown, were identical to the day before, which ex-posed a problem. In fact there can only be two explanations: 1. This was a duplicate and the website was not updated (it is now 11:29 a.m.). 2. There were identical infections, un-usually, on both days.

Let us pray that it was an updating problem, as every infection is a great drama in itself. It seems to me that we all agree that the general public and concerned par-ents, in particular, need all the verified data we can get to make decisions about vir-tual schooling or not, how to allow kids to mingle even out of school, etc.

So, I was wondering if you could consider making some changes along the lines of en-hancing transparency and ei-ther write me back with your views or create an alert on your homepage which all citi-zens can see.

I am hoping that you em-brace these suggestions positively.

Past four years leave me aghast

Having survived for four-plus years beyond what was a hoped-for expiration date, I find myself aghast at what has transpired in those four-plus years. I had not realized I would witness on television one murder and one at-tempted murder of two black male citizens by police. This is just one thing among many others that makes me ex-hausted and distraught about these times. What kind of a world is out there for my grandchildren — for any chil-dren? We seem eager to sacri-fice them for financial or personal gain; what have we become?

HOTEL OCCUPANCY

Occupancy increase in Citrus no

happenstanceCitrus County’s tourism

industry is on fire.Despite the eco-

nomic blow of the coronavi-rus, hotel occupancy rates in Citrus saw a year-over-year percentage in-c r e a s e t w o months in a row (June and July) since the pan-demic broke out in March, and in July, beat nine other destina-tions measured in the Smith Travel Research (STR) report.

That’s incredi-ble, and a much needed shot in the arm to the local econ-omy at a time when it’s some-times hard to see the bright side.

The numbers show that Citrus is not an emerging at-traction; it is a stunning des-tination that people around the state, country and world travel to take in and experience.

With a wide range of out-door recreation to keep visi-tors engaged, travelers flocked to the nature coast to keep safe from the pandemic and enjoy the wonders of the outdoors. Surely, the open-ing of the local scallop sea-son had an effect on the boost, but normal activities across Citrus also contrib-uted to the increase in over-night stays. Visitors are able to enjoy boating, paddling, cycling — all while social distancing.

Tourism is a big part of the local economy, and we are lucky the great outdoors are a safer place to be than in traditional tourist destina-tions like Disney or Busch Gardens. The percentage

increase in occupancy rates at 62.2% in July (up from 61.3% last year) and 55.5% in June (up from 53.4% last year) indicate the strength and maturity of the tourism

sector.The STR re-

port included 788 rooms in mostly national-brand hotel chains, with data pulled primarily from central reserva-tion systems. Cit-rus has about 1,200 hotel rooms total; the study did not include

RV parks or vacation rentals like AirBnb. Yet even with-out complete data, the trend is still clear — tourism is a strength in Citrus.

Marketing initiatives by Visit Florida, the Citrus County Chamber of Com-merce, and through individ-ual blogging on sites like Instagram and Pinterest have certainly extended the reach of the nature coast footprint. And while it is a joyous thing to see so many people enjoying our small piece of paradise, with more visitors comes additional costs to upkeep facilities, parks, and personnel to han-dle the flow of tourists using rivers, lakes, boat ramps, trails and more.

Local officials should com-mit to not only sustaining the tourism sector, but also build upon its success with further investments. Visitors should keep in mind that caution should still be exercised while venturing into hotels, local businesses and recre-ational sites, as Citrus County is not yet a COVID-free zone.

THE ISSUE:Citrus County nets year-over-

year hotel occupancy gains.

OUR OPINION:Numbers show a matured tourism

industry.

Park in bad locationI would like to know whose bril-

liant idea was that to put a park where they did in Crystal River right along (U.S.) 19, which is very busy. I’ve heard of stupid things before, but that takes the cake. Just sit back and look at it. It is ridiculous what they have done and the amount of money that has been spent on that. They could have took that money and used it on other things like streets and fill some potholes.

“You may differ with my choice, but not my right to choose.”— David S. Arthurs publisher emeritus

It’s a milestone moment Franklin should be sharing with family and friends in atten-dance. But he won’t. The Bucs have opted not to allow fans for at least their first two games, and per league protocols, visit-ing players must stay at the team hotel and can’t have visitors.

“I wish it was a little bit later (in the season) cause they’ll probably have fans and I could possibly have family come to the game,” Franklin said. “I’m going down there for business and that’s how I’m looking to handle it.

“It would have been nice, but at the end of the day I have to move on from it. I’d love to have them there and have their sup-port and see them before and after the game. But for now it is what it is. I take the positive, I can be more locked in to the game without having distrac-tions and being too riled up.”

These days Franklin isn’t looking to complain. Quite the opposite, as someone just trying to earn a spot on an NFL roster. He signed with the Panthers because new head coach Matt Rhule was the headman at Temple during Franklin’s fresh-man season and clearly he impressed Rhule and his staff enough to make the initial 53-man roster.

He actually didn’t receive offi-cial word until after the news broke online, which prompted a slew of congratulatory texts even as he waited for the team to call.

It was an unusual preseason, particularly for someone in Franklin’s position, since there were no exhibition games.

“I came out and wanted to show them I was willing to do and play everything,” Franklin said. “I’m willing to play hard. I wanted to show that I’m a high-effort guy and athletic, too,

I wanted to compete and show my skillset.”

To that end, even though the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Franklin had been initially listed as a line-backer, his defensive playing time against the Raiders came at strong safety, where he’s listed second on the depth chart.

“I’ll play wherever and I’m willing to do whatever to help the team,” Franklin said. “Be-fore the game I was trying to keep all my emotions bottled up. I didn’t want to exert too much emotion before the game. When I finally got out there it was a lit-tle different.

“We’re used to having fans there. That was probably the

most difficult thing. You have to bring your own energy, but that was not difficult for me because it was my first game.”

Moving forward, he’s trying to learn from the veterans in front of him while staying prepared in

the event he has to take on a larger role. This week he’ll have a chance to play against a leg-endary quarterback in Brady, whose pro career began when Franklin was just 4 years old.

“He’s pretty phenomenal. We

all know what he can do at the quarterback position,” Franklin said. “They’re coming off a loss, so they’ll be looking to step up.”

Stepping up is something Franklin would like to do him-self on Sunday. He won’t have familiar faces cheering from the stands, but roughly 70 miles to the north the eyes of many in Citrus County will be fixated on their TVs.

“I’m thankful for the support I’ve been getting from home. It’s just tremendous. I can’t be more thankful,” Franklin said. “We’re looking to get a win this week. I’m hoping to go out there, do my job and make a couple plays.”

Democrats set to unveil stopgap bill to prevent shutdown

WASHINGTON — House Democrats on Friday pre-pared a temporary spending bill that is needed to avert a government shutdown at the end of the month — and that would allow lawmakers to leave Washington to campaign.

It’s a lowest-common-de-nominator, bare-minimum measure that befits a deeply polarized Congress. Even so, it took intense efforts at the highest levels of Wash-ington to finish the package. It was set to be released Fri-day afternoon after a last-minute negotiating flurry.

Republicans denied Dem-ocratic requests involving the census and election admin-istration grants. What re-mains is not controversial and includes provisions that would extend federal high-way and flood insurance pro-grams, along with a variety of other low-profile items.

And, as previously an-nounced, the bill does not contain COVID-19 relief, leaving that issue in all likeli-hood for a post-election lame duck session — or for the next administration.

US bans WeChat, TikTok from app stores

The U.S. Commerce De-partment said Friday it will ban Chinese-owned TikTok and WeChat from U.S. app stores on Sunday and will bar the apps from accessing essential internet services in the U.S. — a move that could effectively wreck the operation of both Chinese services for U.S. users.

TikTok won’t face the most drastic sanctions until after the Nov. 3 election, but WeChat users could feel the effects as early as Sunday.

The order, which cited na-tional security and data pri-vacy concerns, follows weeks of dealmaking over the video-sharing service TikTok. President Donald Trump has pressured the app’s Chinese owner to sell TikTok’s U.S. operations to a domestic company to satisfy U.S. concerns over TikTok’s data collection and related issues.

California tech giant Ora-cle recently struck a deal with TikTok along those lines, although details re-main foggy and the adminis-tration is still reviewing it. Trump said Friday said he was open to a deal, noting that “we have some great options and maybe we can keep a lot of people happy,” suggesting that even Micro-soft, which said its TikTok bid had been rejected, might continue to be involved, as well as Oracle and Walmart.

Trump noted that TikTok was “very, very popular,“ said “we have to have the total security from China,” and added that “we can do a combination of both.”

The new order puts pres-sure on TikTok’s owner, By-teDance, to make further concessions, said James Lewis of the Center for Stra-tegic and International Stud-ies. Trump had said this week that he does not like the idea of ByteDance keep-ing majority control of TikTok.

TikTok expressed “disap-pointment” over the move and said it would continue to challenge President Donald Trump’s “unjust executive order.” The Commerce De-partment is enacting an order announced by Presi-dent Donald Trump in Au-gust. TikTok sued to stop that ban.

WeChat owner Tencent said in an emailed statement that it will continue to discuss ways to address concerns with the government and look for long-term solutions.

Google and Apple, the owners of the major mobile

app stores, did not immedi-ately reply to questions. Ora-cle also did not reply.

“At the President’s direc-tion, we have taken signifi-cant action to combat China’s malicious collection of American citizens’ per-sonal data, while promoting our national values, demo-cratic rules-based norms, and aggressive enforcement of U.S. laws and regula-tions,” Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said in a pre-pared statement.

Firefighter dies battling wildfire

from gender revealLOS ANGELES — The

death of a firefighter on the lines of a wildfire east of Los Angeles was under investi-gation Friday as another blaze to the north threatened small communities on the edge of the Mojave Desert.

The death occurred Thursday in San Bernardino National Forest as crews battled the El Dorado Fire about 75 miles east of LA, the U.S. Forest Service said in a statement.

The fire erupted earlier this month from a smoke-generating pyrotech-nic device used by a couple to reveal their baby’s gender, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, or Cal Fire, said.

The name of the firefighter was being withheld until fam-ily members are notified.

“Our deepest sympathies are with the family, friends and fellow firefighters during this time,” Forest Service spokesperson Zach Behrens said in the statement.

US sends troops, tanks to Syria to counter RussiaWASHINGTON — The

U.S. has deployed additional troops and armored vehicles into eastern Syria after a number of clashes with Rus-sian forces, including a re-cent vehicle collision that injured four American ser-vice members.

Navy Capt. Bill Urban, spokesman for U.S. Central Command, said the U.S. has also sent in radar systems and increased fighter jet pa-trols over the region to better protect American and coali-tion forces.

“The United States does not seek conflict with any other nation in Syria, but will defend Coalition forces if necessary,” said Urban.

A senior U.S. official said a half-dozen Bradley fighting vehicles and fewer than 100 additional troops were sent in to eastern Syria. The offi-cial, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss de-tails of the military move, said the reinforcements are meant to be a clear signal to Russia to avoid any more unsafe and provocative ac-tions against the U.S. and its allies there.

Pompeo visits Guyana hoping to shore up supportGEORGETOWN, Guyana

— U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited the small nation of Guyana on Friday looking to shore up support for Trump adminis-tration efforts to oust Vene-zuelan President Nicolás Maduro and build ties with the booming oil producer.

During the brief visit, Pompeo and President Ir-faan Ali signed agreements to strengthen U.S. invest-ment and cooperation on en-ergy and infrastructure while vowing to deepen coopera-tion on maritime security and drug trafficking interdiction.

Pompeo praised Ali’s sup-port for the Lima Group, a regional body of U.S.-aligned nations that have pushed for a diplomatic solution to Ven-ezuela’s political crisis.

An unlikely battlegroundTrump, Biden

hit state of MinnesotaWill Weissert

and steve PeoPles

Associated Press

DULUTH, Minn. — A solidly blue state for the past half century, Minne-sota became an unques-tioned presidential battleground on Friday as President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden fought for work-ing-class voters in dueling events that marked the be-ginning of early voting.

The candidates steered clear of the state’s most populated areas near Min-neapolis to focus on blue-collar voters, some of whom shifted to Republi-cans for the first time in 2016. Trump was headed to Bemidji, about 200 miles north of Minne-apolis, while Biden cam-paigned in a suburb of Duluth, on the banks of Lake Superior and close to the Wisconsin border.

Biden railed against Trump’s inability to con-trol the pandemic, casting the president’s reluctance to embrace more serious social distancing safe-guards as “negligence and selfishness” that cost American lives. At a car-penter union’s training hall, he also emphasized his plans to boost Ameri-can manufacturing.

“It’s time to reward hard

work in America and not wealth,” Biden declared with roughly a dozen workers looking on.

“When the government spends taxpayers’ money, we should spend that money to buy American products made by Ameri-can workers and Ameri-can supply chains to generate American growth,” Biden said. He promised to invest $400 billion in federal money over his first term to ensure more products are made in America.

Since narrowly losing Minnesota in 2016, Trump has emphasized the state in hopes that a victory this year could offset losses in other states. He has

visited regularly and kept a close eye on issues of particular importance to rural corners of the state. He’s reversed an Obama administration policy pro-hibiting the development of copper-nickel mining and has bailed out soy-bean, corn and other farm-ers who have been hurt by trade clashes with China.

More recently, he’s em-braced a “law and order” message aimed nationally at white suburban and rural voters who may be concerned by protests that have sometimes become violent. That’s especially true in Minnesota, where the May killing of George Floyd by a police officer sparked a national reckon-

ing on racism.But for all the work

Trump has put into the state, it may elude him again in November.

A series of polls over the past week show Biden has built a consistent lead in Minnesota. And in the 2018 midterms, Democratic turnout surged in suburbs, small cities and even on the Iron Range, across the blue-collar mining towns that were once labor strongholds but had been trending Republican.

David McIntosh, presi-dent of the conservative Club for Growth, which has produced anti-Biden ads, said Minnesota may help the Trump campaign build momentum.

Many without power after SallyCleanup takes place along Gulf Coast

angie Wang and Jay reeves

Associated Press

LOXLEY, Ala. — Hundreds of thousands of people were still with-out power Friday along the Alabama coast and the Florida Panhandle in the aftermath of Hurricane Sally as officials assessed millions of dollars in damage that included a broken bridge in Pensacola and ships thrown onto dry land.

While the cleanup pressed on, the record-shattering hurricane season notched another milestone: Fore-casters ran out of traditional names for storms after three new systems formed in about six hours. That forced them to begin using the Greek alphabet for only the second time since the 1950s.

In Loxley, Alabama, Catherine Williams lost power and some of her roof to Sally. The storm also de-stroyed three pecan trees in her yard that she used to try to make ends meet.

“There’s no food, no money. I took my last heart pill today,” said Williams, who has been laid off twice from her job as a cook because of the economic problems caused by COVID-19. She hoped that the Red Cross would soon show up at her home.

Two people in Alabama were re-ported killed — a drowning and a death during the cleanup in Bald-win County. In Florida, authorities were looking for a missing kayaker who was feared dead in Escambia County.

The supercharged Atlantic hurri-cane season has produced so many named storms that scientists ran out of traditional names as Tropical Storm Wilfred developed in the eastern Atlantic. It was only the sec-ond time that has happened since forecasters standardized the nam-ing system in 1953. Wilfred was weak and far from land.

Two hours after Wilfred took shape, the National Hurricane Cen-ter moved to the Greek alphabet when Subtropical Storm Alpha formed just off the coast of Portugal. It was followed later in the day by Tropical Storm Beta, which formed in the western Gulf of Mexico. The same practice will govern storm names for the rest of hurricane sea-son, which lasts until the end of

November.The only other time the hurricane

center dipped into the Greek alpha-bet was the deadly 2005 hurricane season, which included Hurricane Katrina’s strike on New Orleans.

The onslaught of hurricanes has fo-cused attention on climate change, which scientists say is causing wetter, stronger and more destructive storms.

In Pensacola, Mamie Patterson was cleaning the yard of her cousin who was recovering from heart sur-gery after they lost power in a low-in-come neighborhood in Pensacola.

Patterson’s mother uses an oxy-gen machine that they took to an un-cle’s home to charge because he had power. She saw utility trucks all over the city and wondered when power would be restored in her neighborhood, where several inches of water was standing in streets more than 48 hours after the storm.

“We feel a lot forgotten back here,” she said. “I hate to say it, but it’s the ghetto neighborhoods. We don’t have lights.”

Elsewhere in the city, Karen Rob-inson sat on the steps of her first-floor apartment and rattled off a list of belongings ruined by 4 feet of water from Sally — clothes, shoes, furniture and food.

It took months to recover from a 2015 flood after a heavy rainstorm sent nearly the same amount of water from a creek into the 200-unit complex. She was concerned be-cause more than two months are left in hurricane season.

“This could happen again. That’s

the problem,” Robinson said as men tossed soggy items out of an apart-ment window nearby.

In Louisiana, about 41,000 people remain without power around Lake Charles, where Hurricane Laura made landfall on Aug. 27. On Oak Is-land, North Carolina, which was ground zero for Hurricane Isaias on Aug. 3, some rental homes finally re-opened by Labor Day.

Escambia County, which includes Pensacola, estimated that Sally caused at least $21 million in dam-age to public infrastructure such as roads and drainage. It will likely cost an additional $8 million to re-store the sand washed away at Pen-sacola Beach, officials said.

The year-old Three Mile Bridge that connects Pensacola to the beaches was heavily damaged in at least two places, and authorities do not know how much money or time it will take to fix.

In several places along the Gulf Coast, ships washed up on shore. They included pleasure boats and even a replica of Christopher Co-lumbus’ ship the Nina, which docked in Pensacola to ride out the storm and came loose from its moor-ing. The vessel came to rest in mud and grass at a nearby marina.

Back in the Atlantic, Hurricane Teddy was a powerful Category 4 storm about 850 miles southeast of Bermuda. The island was hit di-rectly by Hurricane Paulette on Monday, and forecasters said a hur-ricane watch for Teddy may be is-sued soon.

This past week, the notorious champion surfer/jewel thief/

convicted murderer Jack “Murph the Surf” Murphy died.

He infamously broke into the American Mu-seum of Natural History in New York City and stole the Star of India sap-phire, the DeLong Star ruby and other precious jewels from the J.P. Morgan jewel collection.

He was also convicted of murder and given two consecutive life sentences plus 25 years.

However, about 10 years after he turned his life over to Christ, he was re-leased from prison and spent the rest of his life preaching the gospel.

Because he lived in our community, after he died I wrote about him and gave it the headline: “Surfer, sinner and saint.”

I wondered if I would get any flack for that, and sure enough, I did. I got several emails question-ing my use of the word “saint” to describe this man.

I used that word be-cause, according to the biblical criteria of what it means to be called a saint, Murphy qualified.

Probably if you ask peo-ple on the street, “What makes a person a saint?” they would list “saintly” characteristics like being kind to animals (like St. Francis of Assisi) or giving gifts to the poor (St. Nich-olas) or chasing snakes out of Ireland (St. Patrick).

Saints are believed to have performed miracles, were privy to visions or martyred for their faith.

At the very least saints fast and pray regularly, practice gratitude and hospitality, aren’t cranky when they’re tired or grumble when things don’t go their way.

And let’s not forget pa-tience, as in “the patience of a saint.”

Saints are holy and righteous.

They’re also jewel thieves and convicted murderers who have re-pented and saved by grace.

In a letter to an ancient church, the apostle Paul, also a murderer, wrote about who could not enter God’s kingdom — the sex-ually immoral, greedy, drunks, swindlers, slan-derers, idol worshipers, thieves.

Then he told them: “And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sancti-fied, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God” (1 Cor-inthians 6:9-11).

He wrote letters to other churches, often re-ferring to their members as “saints,” which had nothing to do with what they had done, but solely in whom they had believed.

He wrote, “To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ” (Romans 1:7).

Special to the Chronicle

Women of the community are invited to hear such sought-after Christian speakers and Bible teachers such as Lysa TerKeurst, Lisa Harper, Jackie Hill Perry, Jennifer Rothschild, Angie Smith, Kelly Minter, Jen Wilkin and others who focus on God’s Word at a one-day conference Saturday, Sept. 26, 2020, at Cornerstone Baptist Church, 1100 W. Highlands Blvd., Inverness.

The free simulcast event begins at 9 a.m., with doors open at 8:30 a.m., and ends

around 4 p.m.“We wanted to provide

something that’s uplifting for the women in the com-munity,” said Heather Yates, a Bible study teacher and church member at Cornerstone. “And we wanted to give them something that’s free.”

“Normally, this would be a ‘live’ simulcast event and would

cost, but this has already taken place and the church was able to purchase the video of it,” she said.

Continental breakfast, boxed lunch and child care are provided.

Social distancing will be in place at this event.Register by Sept. 23 (so

they know how much food to prepare) by going online at

www.atthecorner.church.

HIGH HOLIDAY SERVICESCongregation Kol Emet wel-

comes all to our High Holiday ser-vices. Services are open at no charge to the entire community (persons of any faith). All services this year will be conducted live via Zoom. The style of the services is informal and casual. Prayer services are warm, welcoming and fully egalitarian. The services are a spiritual mosaic featuring Hebrew chanting of the traditional liturgy, con-temporary English readings, com-mentaries and explanations of the prayers, engaging melodies for con-gregational singing, silent meditation, the blowing of the shofar (ram’s horn) and words of Torah to enhance the prayer experience. All services will be

conducted by Hazzan Mordecai Kam-lot, cantor/founding spiritual leader of the congregation.

We welcome the Jewish New Year at our Rosh Hashanah morning ser-vices will be held on Saturday and Sunday, Sept.19 and 20, 10 a.m. to noon. Yom Kippur will be observed as follows: Kol Nidre Evening Service, Sunday, Sept. 27, 6:45 p.m. (sharp) to 8 p.m.; morning service, Monday, Sept. 28, 10 a.m. to noon (includes Yizkor-Memorial Prayers); and after-noon and concluding services, Mon-day, Sept. 28, 6:30-8 p.m.

To receive the Zoom link to the ser-vices and for more information, con-tact Hazzan Mordecai at 352-643- 0995 or mkamlot2@gmail.com.

Congregation Beth Sholom, Bev-erly Hills, will hold High Holiday Ser-vices via Zoom this year with services for Rosh Hashanah day one and two, and Yom Kippur morning originating from the sanctuary. Beth Sholom will do something different on Rosh Ha-shanah evening — a virtual Rosh Ha-shanah seder.

Due to the pandemic and the fact that most of our members are in a high-risk category, we will not have in-house services.

Prayer books will be made avail-able to all members to use to follow the service officiated by spiritual leader Cantor Alisa Forman. Guests are welcome to join the Zoom ser-vices and watch and listen to Cantor

Forman. If anyone is interested in joining the Zoom services and for more information, contact Barbara Hamerling, at barb4949@gmail.com.

We are continuing our Shabbat Zoom services Fridays at 7 p.m. and Saturdays at 10 a.m. Everything is subject to change. Here is the sched-ule for the High Holiday Services:

Saturday, Sept. 19, 10 a.m. — Rosh Hashanah Day

Sunday, Sept. 20, 10 a.m. — Rosh Hashanah Day 2

Sunday, Sept. 27, 6:45 p.m. (sharp) — Kol Nidre

Monday, Sept. 28, 10 a.m. — Yom Kippur Day

Anyone who is loved by God, anyone who has been washed and forgiven, is

also called to be a saint and can experi-ence the grace that comes as a gift from God our good Father and the peace of a reconciled relationship that comes through faith in Jesus.

That’s what makes sinners saints.It’s not the “saintly” things we do that

give us the right to call ourselves saints, because when it comes to sainthood, we can never achieve it, no matter how hard we try, not even on our best day.

But even the worst of sinners can re-ceive sainthood by faith — especially the worst.

“And such were some of you. But you were washed ...”

28 September 13 - 19, 2020 Viewfinder Citrus County (FL) ChroniCLe

Some pairs love postmortems, an analysis of a deal once it has been played. Let’s give them a hey-day. First, what happened at one table in a Bridge Base Online du-plicate; then, what should have happened.

After the given auction, West led the heart ace, cashed the diamond ace and played the diamond five to partner’s king, declarer playing the seven and the queen. East

shifted to a low club. West took that trick and cashed the club ace, so the contract went down two. What are your thoughts?

Right — there were numerous errors. First, East should have raised one heart to four hearts. South might have passed, but prob-ably would have bid four spades. Then surely West would have gone higher. Also, West’s three-heart rebid was far too cautious. He should have raised to game.

In the duplicate, no East-West pair reached six hearts, which just needed the club finesse to work. Usually the rule for a slam on a fi-nesse is to bid it when the finesse is working but to stay out when the finesse is losing! Here, though, given South’s bid, the finesse was a favorite. Six tables played in four hearts, and eight in five hearts. No one sacrificed in five spades — was that good judgment?

Yes, it was. Five spades doubled can cost 800 for down four! After the heart ace, diamond ace and di-amond to the king, East gives West a diamond ruff. Then West exits with his remaining trump and awaits three club tricks. Even more fun is to start with three rounds of diamonds. West contin-ues with a low heart. East wins with his jack and shifts to the club queen!

Movie: Love at Daisy HillsIn this 2020 romance, small-town girl Jo is alarmed to dis-cover that her family’s general store in the quaint community of Daisy Hills has started to lose money. She urges her fa-ther to take action, so he calls in a personal favor to bring in the necessary help. That’s good news for the family, although it leads to an awkward situa-tion for Jo: Her father’s white knight is none other than Blake, a Daisy Hills native who is also Jo’s ex-boyfriend. Cindy Busby and Marshall Williams star.

Dear Annie: I would like your input on how to handle a tricky situa-

tion. Many times, I am asked to write a letter of recommenda-tion or make a recommenda-tion for someone seeking a new job or promotion. What do I do if the person is qualified for the job/promotion but I do not feel comfortable writing the letter of recommendation as I have nothing of value or signifi-c a n c e that I w o u l d like to share on behalf of this per-son? Re-cently, I w a s asked by my super-visor to write a letter of recommenda-tion for another person that I work with. We started at the company at the same time and I went up for promotion first. I did all the groundwork in get-ting my papers and reviewers in order. My co-worker did the same, however, one of the re-viewers dropped out at the last minute (felt uncomfortable in evaluating), and this person had no backup plan for an-other reviewer. Although this person is fairly competent, I did not feel I could whole-heartedly write a letter of rec-ommendation on their behalf. I felt cornered in doing so, as my supervisor asked me to do it. What is your recommenda-tion in this situation? — Stuck in the Corner

Dear Stuck: When you write someone a letter of recom-mendation, you are putting your own reputation on the line, at least a little bit. If you don’t feel good about writing one for this co-worker, then don’t. Politely let your supervi-sor know. They should leave it at that. It would be out of line for them to pressure you into vouching for someone whom you’d rather not. We’re only as good as our word; don’t de-value yours.

Dear Annie: The morning of my husband’s birthday, I emailed almost all of his rela-tives and friends and re-quested that they contact him with birthday wishes. Because we’re sitting out the pandemic in Hawaii, cards hadn’t ar-rived yet from those who sent them from the mainland. It worked out really well: He had so much fun fielding calls and texts and emails all day! —Hanakeaka

Dear Hanakeaka: That is wonderful. Over the past six months, I think that we’ve all come to better appreciate con-necting with our friends and family.

I’ve enjoyed seeing people find new and creative ways to celebrate their loved ones on birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions this year. Readers, please share any stories you have on this topic.

Dear Annie: I am hoping you can get a message out. From time to time, I’ll be sitting at a bar where I have engaged in some social conversation with strangers or I’ll be DJing music, and a beer will show up and the server will tell me who it’s from. While I know this is a gesture that comes with the best of intentions, I always limit how much I will drink when I have to drive. I prefer people not buy me alcohol without asking me if I would like another one. Please ask people to consider this before ordering alcohol for someone. — Thanks, But No Thanks in North Dakota

Dear Thanks: I’m happy to get the word out. Asking some-one what they’d like to drink is the better approach.

*******SCAM ALERT*******

How to Avoid a Fake Check Scam

• INSIST ON CASH

• Don’t accept a check for more than the selling price. You can bet it’s a scam.

• Inform the Buyer that you’ll wait two weeks before sending any merchandise.

• Never use money from a check to send gift cards, money orders, or wire money to strangers or someone you just met. Many scammers demand that you send money through money transfer services like Western Union or MoneyGram, or buy gift cards and send them the PIN numbers. Once you wire money, or give someone the gift card PINs, it is likegiving someone cash. It’s almost impossible to get it back.

• Toss offers that ask you to pay for a prize. If it’s free, you shouldn’t have to pay to get it.
