Special to the Chronicle

The Rotary Club of Cen-tral Citrus County has sev-eral year-end traditions.

One tradition is to hold a banquet in June for the in-stallation of the newly elected officers.

The banquet this year fol-lowed the Centers for Dis-ease Control guidelines in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was attended by 23 people on June 24 at Lakeside Grill in Inverness.

The installation cere-mony was led by Eric Hoyer, who is one of eight assistant governors of Ro-tary District 6950 in west central Florida and a mem-ber of the Central Citrus club.

President Vera Swade of Inverness was installed, along with outgoing presi-dent and now Vice Presi-dent Anthony Kopka, President-elect John Clardy, Treasurer Hazel Carlson, Secretary Denise Denick and other officers: Nancy Ayres, Sherry Bech-tel, Michael Busler, Roger Carlson and Kristen Nippers.

Each received small gifts and were individually thanked and cited for their contributions during the year by the outgoing presi-dent, as were the following club members: Bill Buck-ner, Sharon Collins, John Ceparano, Eric Hoyer and Ken Swade. Unable to at-tend, but who also recog-nized, were club officers Chuck Clark and Douglas Maymon and member Deb-bie Maymon.

Kopka then presented a special gift and a new award to the club’s “power couple,” Roger and Hazel Carlson. He recognized them for scoring the highest level of involvement in and for Central Citrus Rotary. He then presented Vera and Ken Swade as the “power couple to be” in the new Rotary year.

Another tradition of the club is for the outgoing president to select a Club Rotarian of the Year. The honor is bestowed upon a club member who has been very active throughout the Rotary year. This year, Kopka wanted to include choosing someone who is most exemplary of living and promoting the ideals of Rotary International. The honor of Club Rotarian of the Year, a plaque and gifts were presented to Nancy Ayres of Lecanto.

Ayres is an associate bro-ker and Realtor for EXIT Riverside Realty in Dun-nellon. She is a past presi-dent and 12-year member of Central Citrus Rotary. She has co-chaired the club’s major fundraising event, the Black Diamond Invitational Car Show for three years.

She also chaired the membership committee, participated regularly in weekly club meetings, club service projects and so-cials, events and projects organized by all six Rotary Clubs in Citrus County and in community affairs that the Central Citrus club joined.

What sets Ayres apart,

though, is her seemingly in-exhaustible capacity to bring a positive, cheery and comforting attitude to any situation. Her optimism is apparent even during the difficult times in her life and in the lives of her family.

The Rotary motto of “ser-vice above self” is evident in her work, her volunteer-ing and contributions. Her efforts are spent trying to unite people in their good-ness, particularly at times headed toward division. This Rotarian of the Year embodies the Rotarian ide-als of fairness, civility and goodwill every day in her personal, social and profes-sional life.

During these uncertain times, when it is especially difficult to plan activities and service projects in pub-lic, Central Citrus Rotary has faced challenge under the leadership of President Vera Swade and members like Nancy Ayres and the Carlsons.

Presently, virtual meet-ings are being held weekly online.

The Fraternal Order of Eagles (FOE) is an international nonprofit organization dedi-cated to philanthropic and service efforts which shape communities across the United States and Canada.

Since 1898, the Eagles have been responsi-ble for the creation of Mother’s Day and the protection of senior citizens through the So-cial Security program. Eight U.S. presidents have been members of the FOE, joining the ranks of over 800,000 members that have

donated hundreds of millions of dollars through the FOE Charity Foundation, which houses a variety of funds dedicated to patient care and research for causes including can-cer, heart disease, kidney disease, spinal cord injuries, pediatric ailments and more.

In the past year, Crystal River Eagles have made donations in the amount of $65,000 lo-cally to dozens of charities including Honor Flight, Missions of Citrus County, YMCA, Fallen Officers Monument, Wreaths for Veter-ans Graves, Homeless Veterans, CUB Food Pantry, Camp Boggy Creek, HPH Hospice,

Boys & Girls Clubs, Boys State, Citrus County Foster Parents, Toys for Tots, Citrus Abuse Shelter Association (CASA), Jessie’s Place, Nature Coast Dental Ministries, We Care Food Pantry, and more.

The latest achievement of the FOE is the Eagles Diabetes Research Center at the Uni-versity of Iowa, which opened its doors in 2014 to tackle diabetes through a $25 million donation from the FOE.

Winn-Dixie will require masks

ATLANTA — The parent company of Southern super-market chain Winn-Dixie said Monday that it is revers-ing its policy and will now re-quire customers to wear masks at its stores to help reduce the spread of the coronavirus.

Southeastern Grocers Inc. of Atlanta said the require-ment will go into effect next Monday, July 27, 2020. The company had initially re-jected a mask mandate, say-ing it did not want to put its workers in the position of having to ban customers.

But in a statement, the company headquartered in Jacksonville, said its position had “evolved” and it wanted to more clearly emphasize the importance of its custom-ers’, workers’ and communi-ties’ safety.

Still, the company said state and federal officials should be responsible for is-suing mask requirements.

Walmart and department store Kohl’s are among other retailers that have required customers to wear masks at their stores.

School nurses face furloughs

WEST PALM BEACH — School nurses are being fur-loughed in Palm Beach County as the district pre-pares to open the school year with remote learning for all students.

The Palm Beach Health Care District informed the 223 school heath employees on Monday of the “difficult decision” to furlough them, the Palm Beach Post reported.

The reason cited was the school district’s decision to go with distance learning when school resumes.

Last week the health care district told employees that 60 of the most senior nurses and supervisors will be of-fered buyouts. They were given until the end of Mon-day to either take the buyout, or be furloughed, the news-paper reported.

The health care district said nurses can cash in va-cation and sick time and keep their health insurance if they pay the portion that had been deducted from their paychecks.

Today’s HOROSCOPES

Today is Wednesday, July 22, the 204th day of 2020. There are 162 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight: On July 22, 1862, President

Abraham Lincoln presented to his Cabinet a preliminary draft of the Emancipation Proclamation.

On this date: In 1933, American aviator Wiley

Post completed the first solo flight around the world as he returned to New York’s Floyd Bennett Field after traveling for 7 days, 18 and 3/4 hours.

In 1934, bank robber John Dil-linger was shot to death by federal agents outside Chicago’s Biograph Theater, where he had just seen the Clark Gable movie “Manhattan Melodrama.”

In 1942, the Nazis began trans-porting Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto to the Treblinka concentra-tion camp.

In 1957, Walter “Fred” Morrison applied for a patent for a “flying toy” which became known as the Frisbee.

Ten years ago: The city man-ager, assistant manager and police chief of Bell, California, resigned after outraged residents found out through a Los Angeles Times investigation that the officials were making a total of more than $1.6 million a year.

Five years ago: Prosecutors in Colorado urged the death penalty for Aurora movie theater shooter James Holmes, saying he deliberately and cruelly killed 12 people (Holmes ended up being sentenced to life in prison when the jury could not unani-mously agree on execution).

One year ago: Equifax agreed to pay at least $700 million to settle lawsuits over a 2017 data breach that exposed the Social Security numbers and other private informa-tion of nearly 150 million Americans.

Today’s Birthdays: Former Sen-ate Majority Leader Bob Dole, R-Kan., is 97. Game show host Alex Trebek is 80. Actor Danny Glover is 74. Actor Willem Dafoe is 65. Actor-comedian David Spade is 56. Britain’s Prince George of Cambridge is seven.

Sports Illustrated taps model who is 56, stands 5-foot-3CALABASAS, Calif. — Kathy

Jacobs said it’s important not to discount people because of their age or height. She should know — the petite 56-year-old is a brand new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model.

Jacobs, from Calabasas, Cali-fornia, and who stands 5-foot- 3-inches, hopes her appearance in the issue will help change readers’ views of beauty.

“I’m just like so grateful that they took like a chance on me,” says Jacobs. ”Two things you can’t change about yourself are how old you are and how tall you are.”

The 2020 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue is online and on

newsstands Tuesday. The cover features a trio of models — Olivia Culpo, Jasmine Sand-ers and Kate Bock, who also each have individual covers.

The original swimsuit issue ran in 1964. It has been a launching pad for models such as Kathy Ireland, Christie Brin-kley, Elle Macpherson, Kate Upton and Ashley Graham.

Over the years the issue has tried to stay fresh, with painted bi-kinis, plus-sized models, unedited photos, tiny swimsuits, amputee models, older models and the ad-dition of professional athletes and celebrities in relationships.

“That’s the great thing about Sports Illustrated is they just keep reinventing themselves and they keep reinventing what is your view of beauty,” says Jacobs.

Singer, songwriter, activist Baez named

Guthrie recipientTULSA, Okla. — Singer, song-

writer, activist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Joan Baez is this year’s recipient of the Woody Guthrie Prize, an award that recognizes artists who speak out for the less fortunate.

Baez will be honored on Aug. 16 during this year’s virtual edition of the Philadelphia Folk Festival. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017.

Baez said that she has fol-lowed in the footsteps of Guthrie.

“It has been my mission to use my music as a voice for those who cannot be heard or have been silenced by fear and powerlessness,” Baez said.

— From wire reports

Associated PressModel Kathy Jacobs poses for a portrait at her home in Calabasas, Calif., on Friday, July 17, 2020. Jacobs has made her Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue debut at age 56. The 2020 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue is online and on newsstands Tuesday.

Three motorists sent to hospital following crash

MATTHEW BECK/ChronicleA member of Citrus County Fire Rescue sweeps debris from County Road 491 near Homosassa Tuesday, July 21, 2020 following this two-vehicle crash that happened around 3 p.m. The crash occurred at the intersection of West Cardinal Street and South Lecanto Highway causing lanes in all directions on the roadways to be closed while the accident victims were removed from their vehicles and the scene cleared from the busy intersection.

The male is a 29-year-old from Inverness, he was wearing a T-shirt and shorts and was found on the right side of the north-bound lane of Pine Ridge Boulevard, Prendergast said hundreds of feet from the crime scene, which was not visible at the inter-section of Pine Ridge Bou-levard and West Pinto Drive and Pink Poppy Drive. However, at North

Flagstaff Drive and Pine Ridge Boulevard, detec-tives and forensics person-nel could be seen searching the area for evidence.

The Medical Examiner arrived shortly after 8:30 a.m. The cause of death was unknown, Prendergast said, with an autopsy likely to occur within 24 hours.

“We haven’t moved the body,” he said when asked if the victim had any gun-shot wounds. “We won’t know until the medical ex-aminer comes and moves the body.”

The first responding dep-uty found the body, called EMS and secured the scene, Prendergast said.

“We’re collecting a lot of evidence,” Prendergast said, noting it was un-known if any of the items belonged to the victim. The identity of the man was not given, pending next-of-kin notification.

Anyone with informa-tion is asked to call the sheriff ’s Major Crimes Unit at 352-726-1121. To re-main anonymous, call the Crimestoppers tip line at 888-269-8477.

JEFF BRYAN/ChronicleCitrus County Sheriff’s Office detectives and crime scene technicians wait for the Medical Examiner to remove a body found Tuesday, July 21, 2020, at the intersection of Pine Ridge Boulevard and Amarillo Drive where a motorist discovered it.

According to Citrus County Sheriff Mike Prendergast, who witnessed the af-termath of the 3 p.m. collision on Tues-day, July 21, 2020, at County Road 491’s intersection with West Cardinal Street, a green Ford F150 tried to turn left onto Cardinal Street from C.R. 491’s north-bound lane.

Preliminary investigations show the truck failed to yield for a southbound gold Ford SUV, which struck the truck’s passen-ger side head on, causing the truck to roll on its side, Prendergast said.

Nature Coast EMS transported three of the four involved motorists for treat-ment. Traffic was blocked in all direc-tions as a result of the crash.

Emergency responders transported

three motorists to hospitals after an SUV broadsided a pickup truck at a Lecanto intersection.

to make sure there’s enough interested and ca-pable teachers available to educate them.

Interviews and screen-ings have been ongoing to move district teachers from face-to-face to virtual schooling.

Eligible teachers for Cit-rus Virtual must have a teaching certificate, but ed-ucators who are certified to teach in multiple subjects and have experience teach-ing online are preferred.

“There’s not a ‘virtual certification,’” Mullen said, “but we’re looking at virtual qualifications.”

Once those teachers be-come full-time virtual edu-cators, the school district will shuffle around its other teachers to fill those openings.

“It’s a matter of realign-ing our resources,” Mullen said.

Mullen said the school district isn’t expecting to hire outside teachers to ac-commodate the personnel changes tied to the student

migrations.“We’re just moving stu-

dents around,” he said, “we’re not adding more.”

To handle its roster of on-line students, the school district needs around 34 el-ementary teachers and be-tween 10 and 16 middle school teachers, Mullen said.

It’s not yet clear how many high school teachers are needed for Citrus Vir-tual since some courses, compared to lower grades, aren’t taught for the entire school day.

This means some educa-tors will teach part of their day on Citrus Virtual and the rest in physical class-rooms, Mullen said.

Enrollment numbers could change more if the Citrus County School Board decides during its emer-gency meeting July 22 to postpone the first day back to school on Aug. 10.

Mullen said enrollments could also fluctuate if school board members also opt to mandate mask-wearing for district students and staff.

Depending on the board’s discussions and decisions, the school district might re-open Citrus Virtual enroll-ment to give families

another opportunity to reg-ister their children for on-line education, Mullen said.

Mullen said if there is a first-school-day postpone-ment, it won’t be to see if COVID-19 cases decrease but to give district employ-ees more time to plan and prepare.

“There’s a lot of logistics involved here and people don’t realize that,” he said. “It’s just not a simple process.”

However, Mullen noted, any deadline extension will

further delay when district and school administrators can finalize their teachers’ assignments and schedules.

“Everything’s driving each other and everything’s connected,” he said.

Distributing internet- capable devices to Citrus Virtual students who need them will be another logis-tic for the school district to handle.

“Some parents may choose household devices,” Mullen said.

Mullen said families will be responsible for getting

internet access, which Spectrum and Century Link offer at low costs for qualified households.

For more information on Spectrum’s services, visit spectruminternetassist.com; for Century Link’s, visit tinyurl.com/sxwc8rj.

Citrus Virtual students must commit a semester to their online studies before they decide to transfer to a brick-and-mortar school. They’re also not eligible to receive free or reduced school meals.

Virtual school students who are also enrolled in the district’s International Bac-calaureate Program or in one of the high school’s health, art or computer sci-ence academies will be able to take their required IB and academy courses face-to-face in a hybrid

class schedule.“We don’t want that kid to

miss out on the program of study they’ve chosen,” Mul-len said.

Students entering Citrus Virtual as a senior will also be allowed to participate in their respective high school’s graduation cere-mony in the spring, Mullen said.

Depending on its success, popularity and need, Citrus Virtual School could re-main a part of the school district well beyond the up-coming school year.

“It’s just something it’s going to stay with us,” Mul-len said, “but it might not be that big in the future.”

Randy Oliver is propos-ing the current millage rate — 7.887 mills — be kept the same. One mill equals $1 for every $1,000 of taxable value on property.

Even if the rate stays intact, residents will pay more to the county if the taxable values on their properties rise.

The proposed millage will account for

$83.5 million in revenue, up 5.8% from the current year.

Oliver, in his budget message to commission-ers, says it’s too soon to know the full economic

fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. Still, the county expects to lose a minimum $1.2 million in state revenue sharing and sales tax. Gas tax revenue may also be

lower, he said.He said the county

should have a better grip on the revenue situation in September prior to the board adopting the final budget and tax rate.

they’re doing a really good job,” he said. “They’re mov-ing in the right direction.”

It didn’t look that way as 2019 ended and 2020 started off. County commissioners heard stories of Ozello resi-dents waiting 80-plus min-utes for an ambulance to show up on an emergency call. That concern led to other operational issues within Nature Coast, in-cluding oversight, finances, adequate coverage during peak hours, and employee morale.

The county learned that Nature Coast had $1.5 mil-lion in mortgage loans that were being called in for re-payment by the end of this year.

And the union represent-ing paramedics and emer-gency medical technicians voted on a letter of no confi-dence for then-CEO Mike Hall.

Commissioners threat-ened to yank Nature Coast’s license if it didn’t come up with a business plan they

could support.Hall resigned under

pressure; Baxter, who had started at Nature Coast in 1997 as a paramedic and rose up the ranks to opera-tions manager, came out of retirement in February and was named interim CEO.

Baxter said employees were eager for new leadership.

“They had no direction,” he said. “They weren’t en-gaged. They felt like their opinions didn’t matter.”

Baxter and his leader-ship team made changes.

They hired additional paramedics and EMTs, and placed more ambulances on the road during peak mid-day hours.

Administrators, includ-ing Baxter, are the first to fill in on shifts that are down a paramedic or EMT. (The Chronicle and Baxter set Monday morning, July 20, for an interview. Baxter didn’t make it because he had taken a paramedic’s shift that day and into the night.)

Coleman said it’s actions like those that boost em-ployee morale.

“When you see the CEO

working hard to make things right, you want to work harder too,” he said.

The Nature Coast fi-nances were a mess. Along with having mortgages both on its administrative build-ing and the ambulance re-pair shop across the street, Nature Coast had allowed unpaid accounts to become delinquent.

According to a

consultant’s report, Na-ture Coast lost $2.3 million over four years in uncol-lected debt.

The county subsidy, this year at $244,000, is created to decrease by 5% every year. Nature Coast, how-ever, pays to the county twice that amount for the ambulance service’s por-tion of the 911 emergency call system.

The nonprofit’s consul-tant noted that arrange-ment was not sustainable for an ambulance service whose clientele consists mainly of Medicare pa-tients on fixed incomes.

The county said it would help. It tentatively agreed to boost Nature Coast’s sub-sidy by $415,000, plus an-other $200,000 in capital improvements, and take

over the mortgage debt by buying the buildings from Nature Coast and then leas-ing them back for $1 a year.

Coleman said Nature Coast needs to focus on its bottom line.

“We’re still concerned about the financial as-pects,” he said. “They’ve got to have somebody really ca-pable of doing the billing.”

Considering the adminis-trative transition began at the cusp of the COVID-19 pandemic, Baxter said the agency is running smoothly.

“It’s been one challenge after another, but we’re tak-ing it in stride,” he said. “County commissioners had a belief we could do this all along, but we had to show them.”

Coleman said a good in-dicator of how well Nature Coast has rebounded is the number of citizen com-plaints he’s receiving — none.

“Lately I have not heard a thing about it from the public, which is good,” he said. “Prior to February, I was getting a number of them. I have not a single negative comment since March.”

Associated Press

CONCORD, N.H. — Bedford High School canceled its senior prom, and a persistent pandemic means prospects for dances to be held this fall are slim to none.

But nearly 100 recent grads got dressed up last weekend for a private prom, one of several held around the country just as the debate over safely re-opening schools ramps up.

In some places still ravaged by the virus, plans were called off. In New Hampshire, at least, officials are largely staying out of the way as long as organizers and participants follow distancing guidelines meant to keep the coronavirus in check.

“We’re asking folks to be smart about it, but I’m not going to be the guy in ‘Footloose’ who says, ‘No danc-ing in my town,’” Gov. Chris Sununu, a Republican, said last month.

New Hampshire rules for wedding and event ven-ues don’t prohibit dancing but strongly discourage it unless dancers stick with members of their own household or remain 6 feet apart.

In Missouri, Jefferson City High School seniors or-ganized their own June 30 prom after their original event was canceled. In Michigan, Chippewa Valley High School parents have scheduled a combined prom, after party and senior awards banquet for Wednesday.

But plans to host private proms were abandoned this month in Montana and Georgia amid rising num-bers of COVID-19 infections. And health officials in Illinois said 10 people associated with an “unofficial prom” held at a home in June later tested positive for the virus.

The Bedford High prom was held Saturday in a tent at the Stonebridge Country Club in Goffstown. While more than 300 seniors graduated, attendance was capped at 100 tickets, and not all were sold.

Carol Justic, whose daughter attended and who was there herself as a chaperone, said she had initial con-cerns about food service and dancing but ended up being impressed. Chaperones made sure no more than six teens were at each table, and students wore their masks when entering and exiting the tent, she said.

“As a mom it makes you proud and teary because they’re doing the right thing,” she said.

Though the students posed together for a group photo, they were instructed to stand near friends with whom they had arrived or were sitting, said Andrea Gately, who helped organize the prom for her son and his classmates.

She cited two main reasons: The “right of passage” the event often represents and “the girls who had al-ways dreamed of going to senior prom and they buy these fabulous dresses, and they don’t have an oppor-tunity to wear them.”

Helene Anne Pope

C RY S TA L R I V E R

On Saturday July 18, 2020 Helene Anne Pope passed away from cancer.

Surrounding her with love was Charles, the love of her life of 55 years, their son Allan (Michelle), daughter Juli Anne (Lee), grandchildren Spencer, Lauren, Rachel, Courtney, Ryan, and great grandson Dawson. She was the sec-ond youngest of 6 siblings. Victor, Morris, Linda, Max-ine, and Judy.

Born in New York 6 weeks early, she a l w a y s felt more of a Flo-r i d i a n since the f a m i l y moved to

St. Petersburg soon after. She met Charlie when God brought them together; Soul mates at first sight. They married in 1968 and spent the next several years living the military life.Upon retiring in 1987 the Pope family returned to the Citrus County area, moving to the Crystal River waterfront in 1992.

After doing sales for the Citrus County Chronicle and the St. Pete Times. She went on to spend 8 years as the Advertising Manager for the Times be-fore retiring to help run the family business, Charles Pope Cellular. She combined her love of com-munity and small business when she poured her heart into Hometown Val-ues, now Hometown Cit-rus. Her passion was to help promote and grow other small businesses in the community she loved so much. Her drive to help others also led her to vol-unteer at the Boys and Girls Club, where she was President for 10 years and continued to be an active board member until her passing.

She enjoyed time on the motorcycle; taking long trips along the beaches of Florida and traveling through the mountains of North Carolina. She loved sunsets, the water and watching Charlie play soft-ball. She adored her chil-dren, spoiled her grandchildren, and couldn’t get enough of her great grandson. Often seen at the local watering holes, she loved listening to the live bands, slow dancing with Dad, and slowly sip-ping her Mic Ultra over ice. She was the most amazing woman we have ever known. She was so very loved. She will be so very missed.

Join us Friday night to celebrate Anne at Crystal River Harley Davidson from 6 to 8 pm.

In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be made to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Citrus County.

Mark Marques II, 44

L A K E PA N A S O F F K E E

Mark J Marques II age 44 from Lake Panasoffkee, Florida passed away at home on July 14th, 2020.

Mark was born April 14th, 1976 in Fleming-ton, New Jersey to Anthony Marques and Marian (Smaldone) Kobb. Mark is predeceased by his father Anthony, maternal grand-mother Frances Smaldone, and his uncle Vincent Smaldone.

Before moving to Florida, Mark was a resident of Brick, New Jer-sey where he worked as a tal-ented irri-

gation specialist and continued his line of work in Florida. Mark will al-ways be remembered for his boisterous laughter and his ability to always make sure that everyone was smiling. In his spare time he loved the freedom he felt riding his motorcycle and listening to the music that he deeply related to. He was a loyal and beloved husband, son, brother and uncle who cared and loved passionately to his inner core. Mark was truly a man that would have your back in any situation he believed in. He protected and de-fended his family and friends fiercely. He was definitely a “ride or die” man with the highest level of loyalty you will ever find in a person.

Mark was Christian by faith who wouldn’t think twice to give the shirt off his back or give his last dollar to anyone in need. Mark is survived by his mother Marian (Smaldone) Kobb and his stepfather Brian Kobb of Lake Panasoffkee, Florida. Mark was the lov-ing husband to Kathleen Palmer Marques of Brick, NJ. Kathy was the center of his world whom he loved deeply and unconditionally, as she did with him as well. She will miss him tremen-dously forever.

Surviving also are his siblings whom he held a very tight-knit relationship with Jennifer Marques- Compostella and her hus-band Joseph of Inverness, Florida, his adored brother Mathew Marques and his wife Katherine, his nephew and niece Gabriel and Hai-ley Marques, along with Vinny, Alexis and Joey Com-postella who will miss the love, fun, and laughter their uncle so selflessly provided and Mark always made sure they had in his pres-ence. Mark also leaves be-hind his “brother from another mother” and best friend Jerry Velazquez and his wife Patty along with many other friends, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews,

nieces, sister-in-law’s, that will forever miss him espe-cially during holiday family gatherings where he would break out his guitar, play, and sing for everyone’s de-light and entertainment. Mark always knew the right music to play to capture the moment perfectly and emo-tionally. Mark was a very fortunate man who was able to spread his infec-tious love and happiness to everyone he crossed paths with and was loved by so many including his loyal dog Dinky.

A celebration of life for Mark will be held on Friday July 24th 2020 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. with the ser-vice at 5:00 p.m. at the Chas. E. Davis Funeral Home, Inverness.

Kristie rieKenAP sports writer

Yoenis Céspedes expects to be the designated hitter for the New York Mets on Friday when they open the season against the Atlanta Braves.

It will be his first major league game in more than two years. In-juries to his feet and legs have sidelined him since July 20, 2018.

Céspedes said he’s feeling good and is confident that he’ll also play left field at some point this season. But he told report-ers through a translator Tuesday that “at least for the first game,

for opening day, I’ll be the DH.”The 34-year-old slugger, an

All-Star in 2014 and 2016, had surgery on both heels and then broke his right ankle in a nasty fall at his Florida ranch. Now he’s healthy and eager to help the Mets.

“I think the strongest part of me is my mind, is my mentality,” Céspedes said. “I think whether it’s a good day or a bad day, my mentality has always been strong. I’ll be ready to play once the time comes.”

BRUISEDAstros second baseman Jose

Altuve bruised his left leg in

Houston’s exhibition win over Kansas City on Tuesday.

The 2017 AL MVP was injured in a collision at home plate in the fourth inning of the 15-6 win that was the Astros’ last tuneup before their opener on Friday against Seattle. The team said he is listed as day to day.

Altuve hit .298 with 31 homers and 74 RBIs in 124 games last season while missing time with leg injuries.

ON THE MENDMasahiro Tanaka threw 20

pitches during batting practice Tuesday and is on track to miss one turn in the New York

Yankees’ rotation before making his first start July 31 against Boston.

Tanaka walked two in his one inning. It was his first time facing batters since he was hit in the head by Giancarlo Stanton’s line drive on July 4. Tanaka is to throw batting practice again on Sunday.

“If everything comes out OK, I should be ready to go,” he said through a translator.

He did not use a protective screen. Tanaka thought about getting hit only before deliver-ing his first pitch.

“After I threw that, it was back to business, back to normal,” he said.

The 31-year-old right-hander is 75-43 in six major league sea-sons and is entering the final year of his contract.

POCHE OUTTampa Bay Rays left-handed

reliever Colin Poche will miss the season after being placed on the 45-day injured list with a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow. The team said Tommy John surgery has been recommended.

Catcher Kevan Smith was added to the 40-man roster to re-place Poche, who went 5-5 with a 4.70 ERA in 51 appearances last season.

FHSAA votes to maintain July 27 start

During a meeting Monday, July 20, 2020, that lasted nearly five hours, the Florida High School Athletic Associa-tion Board of Directors voted to maintain the current calen-dar that allows fall sports to begin practices on Monday, July 27, 2020.

The motion, which passed by a 10-5 vote, included pro-visions that allow individual schools to declare whether they intend to participate in the state series for fall sports by a yet-to-be-determined date. Schools that choose not to partake in the state series may schedule additional reg-ular-season contests through the end of the state series. Citrus County School Board member Doug Dodd was among the FHSAA board members to vote in favor of the motion.

The Citrus County School

District has yet to declare when fall sports practices can begin for county schools.

Indianapolis 500 attendance limited

to 25% capacityINDIANAPOLIS — Atten-

dance will be limited to 25% capacity for the Indianapolis 500 and spectators will be re-quired to wear face coverings at “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”

Indianapolis Motor Speed-way can hold approximately 350,000 fans in the grand-stands, suites and infield, but officials said last month only 50% capacity would be ad-mitted for the rescheduled Aug. 23 race. The number was adjusted Tuesday.

Tickets will not be sold after Friday and IMS has a 95-page plan on guidelines and health protocols it will re-lease later this week. Among the precautions the speed-way will take is reassigning seats for social distancing,

distributing hand sanitizer and administering tempera-ture checks at entry and limit-ing options from concession stands to mostly prepack-aged foods to eliminate lines.

Mark Miles, President and CEO of Penske Entertain-ment Corp., said the speed-way has offered credits to anyone who has purchased tickets but no longer wants to attend the race. IMS is also encouraging fans over 65 to skip the race, will limit atten-dance in the infield and re-duce suite seating.

Miles said IMS will not pe-nalize fans who choose not to attend on their 2021 ticket renewals.

Indians players, owner meet to talk

name changeCLEVELAND — Cleve-

land’s players met Tuesday with owner Paul Dolan to dis-cuss a potential name change for the team, which has been called the Indians

for the past 105 years.Manager Terry Francona

said the group had an “hon-est” conversation and he came away proud of how it was handled by all involved.

“The way the players ex-pressed themselves in a ma-ture manner and in a respectful manner, and the way Paul listened and spoke back to the players,” said Francona, who attended the meeting along with team president Chris Antonetti and general manager Mike Cher-noff. “I was really, really happy and content to just sit there and let them talk back and forth.”

Francona stressed that nothing has been resolved over the controversial topic.

The franchise recently an-nounced it was in the early stages of meeting with the community and appropriate stakeholders “to determine the best path forward with re-gard to our team name.”

The Indians’ move coin-cided with the recent decision

by Washington’s NFL team to drop the name Redskins, which had been decried as being racist for decades.

Cleveland removed its contentious Chief Wahoo logo from its game jerseys and caps. Fans, however, can still buy merchandise bearing the red-faced, toothy mascot that became a sym-bol of hatred to some and civic pride to others.

Francona said the meeting with Dolan was a positive, significant step.

NFL to allow social justice

decals on helmetsThe NFL is planning to

allow players to have decals on the back of their helmets bearing names or initials of victims of systemic racism and police violence.

The league has been in talks with individual players and their union since June about somehow honoring such victims. The initiative

will be done leaguewide, with each team deciding who it will honor and how to display the names or initials.

Unlike the NBA, which is allowing players to wear slo-gans on their jerseys, the NFL will stick to names and initials once a final agree-ment has been reached with the players’ association. The program will continue for the entire season.

This initiative is something of a breakthrough because the league has not allowed such messaging, except for during its October NFL Cru-cial Catch program in con-junction with the fight against breast cancer, and in its No-vember salutes to the military. Players also have been al-lowed to represent a cause on their cleats one weekend per season.

A list of names and initials for use on the helmet decals is being put together by the league and the NFLPA.

Stocks closed barely higher Tuesday as a late stumble nearly wiped out the day’s gains. The S&P 500 rose 0.2%, but the Nasdaq ended lower. The gains followed strength overseas after Euro-pean leaders agreed on a coronavirus relief fund.

Wall Street extended its recent run of gains Tuesday, despite a late stumble that nearly wiped out the stock market’s gains for the day.

The S&P 500 rose 0.2% after having been up 0.8% in the early going. Banks and energy companies led the gains, outweighing losses in technology stocks, which pulled the Nasdaq composite lower. Small company stocks did better than the broader market.

The latest gains followed strength in markets over-seas as investors welcomed news that European lead-ers have agreed on a budget and coronavirus relief fund worth more than $2 trillion. The agreement comes as pressure intensifies on Congress and the White House to reach a deal on another economic aid pack-age before a temporary boost in aid for unemployed Americans expires at the end of the month.

Hope for more economic aid from the government, following Europe’s exam-ple, helped put investors in a buying mood Tuesday, said Kristina Hooper, chief

global market strategist for Invesco.

“The U.S. does not have the safety net that Europe has,” she said. “This is an environment in which there is going to be a need for more fiscal stimulus or you could see a real hit to consumers.”

The S&P 500 gained 5.46 points to 3,257.30. It was the index’s third-straight gain. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 159.53 points, or 0.6%, to 26,840.40. The Nasdaq dropped 86.73 points, or 0.8%, to 10,680.36, a day after notching its best day since the end of April and its latest all-time high.

Small company stocks surged, driving the Russell 2000 index up 19.56 points, or 1.3%, to 1,487.51. Indexes in Europe and Asia closed higher.

Treasury yields were mostly lower and the price of gold rose 1.5%, signs of continuing caution in the market.

After following up a 20% drop in the first three months of the year with a nearly 20% gain over the April-June quarter, Wall Street has continued its winning ways so far in July. The S&P 500 has notched a weekly gain the past three

weeks as investors cheered improvements in hiring, retail sales and other parts of the economy, along with rising hopes for a COVID-19 vaccine.

The Federal Reserve’s efforts to support markets and expectations that Washington will deliver more financial aid to help Americans weather the economic downturn have been key in keeping mar-kets mostly pushing higher since stocks plunged in March.

The overall S&P 500 index has rallied back to within 3.9% of its record set in February and is back to where it was in early June.

Still, worries remain that the rise of coronavirus counts across much of the country will derail efforts to reopen businesses shut down due to the pandemic. That’s why Wall Street is betting on Washington to deliver another tril-lion-dollar round of eco-nomic aid.

“We still have areas of the U.S. that have become hotspots, there are local-ized lockdowns and we ex-pect the employment landscape will not be able to heal until we have the economy open completely,” said Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist at Pru-dential Financial.

DAViD Koenig AP airlines writer

United Airlines said Tuesday that it lost $1.63 billion in the second quarter as revenue plunged 87%, and it will operate at barely over one-third of capacity through September as the corona-virus throttles air travel.

The Chicago-based air-line burned through $40 million a day from April through June but said it will trim losses to $25 million a day in the third quarter by slashing costs.

CEO Scott Kirby said United cut its cash-burn rate below its closest ri-vals by shrinking its sched-ule to meet lower demand and cutting costs across the company. In a state-ment, he said the moves

“positioned United to both survive the COVID crisis and capitalize on con-sumer demand when it sustainably returns.”

Investors will have to wait for United to provide more details about the quarter and the future out-look on Wednesday, when executives hold a call with analysts and reporters.

United, which started the year with 96,000 em-ployees, said 6,000 have volunteered to take sever-ance packages and leave. Last week, the airline warned 36,000 employees that they could be fur-loughed in October, al-though executives said they expect the final job-loss number to be smaller.

The quarterly loss, which was worse than Wall Street expected, followed the plunge in air travel

due to widespread travel restrictions and passen-gers’ fear of flying during t h e c o r o n a v i r u s pandemic.

Air travel in the U.S. plunged starting in March, hitting bottom in mid-April at just 5% of the year-ago traffic. A slow partial recovery stalled in recent weeks as reported cases of coronavirus surged in many states, particularly in the South and West, and Northeastern states im-posed quarantines on visi-tors from much of the country.

Airline bookings flat-tened, with United’s hub airport in Newark, New Jersey, being especially hard hit.

U.S. airlines have seen an even sharper drop in international travel. Unit-ed’s revenue from U.S.-Eu-rope flights nosedived 97%, nearly $1.9 billion, in the second quarter.

Husband had to wait in the car

It’s ridiculous. My husband is really sick with a bad ear infec-tion. Something went wrong with his own doctor in insur-ance, so he can’t see his doctor until August. He goes to (a clinic) because his ear is both-ering him so bad. Nobody’s in the office — a nice air-condi-tioned office, but nobody’s there. Then he can go sit out in the hot car and wait. Our air conditioning’s not working, so he’s waiting and he’s burning up in the car and he couldn’t wait anymore, so he’s coming

home. Nobody’s at (the clinic) and they make him wait in the car. Stupid.

Testing site was very efficientI had the COVID test

yesterday at the Citrus Community Center and everybody there was just pleasant and effi-cient and they got us all going through there. There wasn’t a huge wait. It was a little over an hour and it just worked out real well. So I would just like to have a little piece put

in the paper about how good all the people there were. They were very pleasant. Thank you.

Looking for a support groupWith all the services

they have in Citrus County, like TOPS, Over-eaters Anonymous, mental illness, Weight Watchers — all these services — but they have nothing for victims of incest or sexual as-

sault. Where can one go to get that kind of help — some kind of support group?

Crippen will work to gain trustCitrus County has the op-

portunity to elect a leader that truly cares about the safety and well being of all of our citizens. That leader is Patrick Crippen. As your new sheriff, Patrick Crippen will not only listen to your con-cerns, but will take action by researching and enacting pol-icy that will make the depart-ment responsive to your needs. Patrick is the candi-date most qualified to com-municate and collaborate with all of our community leaders, building much needed trust and transpar-ency between the sheriff ’s of-fice and the citizens of Citrus County. Law enforcement pro-fessionals are increasingly mistrusted and under attack all over the country. Through community oriented policing, Patrick Crippen will work to regain that trust and build strong community bonds be-tween the sheriff ’s office, the deputies and the citizens.

Patrick Crippen has a sound vision of the role of sheriff. His communication and leadership skills coupled with his excellent people skills afford him the ability to serve a diverse population as a highly effective, community based leader of our law en-forcement community. The sheriff ’s office is defined by the actions and attitudes of its deputies. Patrick’s experi-ence in law enforcement com-bined with his corporate management experience will bring much-needed direction to and respect for the depu-ties, while boosting employee morale within the depart-ment. This, along with com-munity involvement and a sound community policing approach, will have citizens viewing deputies as friends and allies, not adversaries.

I have known Patrick for over 35 years. During that time, I have always known him to be genuine and honest, a man of true integrity, im-portant traits that he will bring with him to the sheriff ’s office. Raised in Citrus County, Patrick is not a career politician, but our deep rooted, homegrown candidate with nothing but the utmost desire to serve the citizens of our county with knowledge and dedication.

I urge you vote for Patrick Crippen for Citrus County Sheriff!

Support for wearing a mask

I want to thank Sandra Ho-facker and Matthew Clemons for their well-researched and informed letters about wear-ing masks. The woman who wrote to explain why she doesn’t wear a mask based her decision on the moronic reasoning of a group called AAPS. My suggestion to her and other nonbelievers in sci-ence — for example, Ron Kitchen — is that the next time they need surgery, insist the doctors and nurses not wear masks. They could skip washing their hands, as well.

Also, Rep. Ralph Massullo sees no support for a mandate to wear masks. Perhaps he read the Chronicle’s poll re-cently about wearing masks. Even in this Trump district,

more than 70% polled think wearing a mask is a good idea. It amazes me that Rep. Massullo is a doctor.

More reporting on COVID-19 neededWe need more balanced

and informative reporting about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Citrus County. The paper posts new data every day, including total cases, total hospitalizations and new hospitalizations, total deaths and new deaths, but the paper has carried vir-tually no news about the the mistakes made in Florida re-porting that misrepresent the number of cases, namely the misreporting of cases by nu-merous testing centers across the state showing grossly in-flated numbers of cases by re-porting 100% positive tests. There was also no reporting if tests of antigen and PCR being consolidated, grossly inflating the number of posi-tive tests and counting as cases those who have recov-ered or never shown any symptoms.

The Chronicle also does not report on the fact that hospi-talizations and deaths at-tributed to COVID-19 include all hospitalizations and deaths where the patient had a positive test for COVID-19, whether or not they had symptoms or had one symp-tom of COVID-19 whether or not there was a test, and whether or not they were hos-pitalized or died because of COVID-19. When reporting deaths, the data is not broken out to show how many cases or deaths occurred in assisted living facilities, where the residents are at much greater risk of infection or death. This wrongfully raises the anxiety level in the county and distorts decisions about reopening schools and busi-nesses. It also leads to near hysterical views about the need to wear masks and cre-ates animosity among our res-idents. It would be considerably better if the Chronicle were to do some in-vestigative reporting to deter-mine whether or not the reporting errors on cases, hospitalizations and deaths also occurred in Citrus County and affected our num-bers. This would enable us to

reasonably assess the situation.

In addition, there is virtu-ally no reporting on the ad-verse effects of the lockdowns on mental health, leading to increased suicides and opioid overdose deaths. Across the U.S., it is reported that, after declining numbers in recent years after President Trump focused on the problem, over-doses have spiked by 18% since March. It has been re-ported that there have been large increases in overdose incidents and fatalities in neighboring Sarasota and Manatee counties. You should be reporting on these bad ef-fects of the lockdowns.

Fed up with town politics

We have never in our lives witnessed a bigger fiasco than we did July 20. We attended a Zoom Inglis Town Council special meeting, called to re-place Commissioner William Monteverde. During a previ-ous Zoom commission meet-ing, Commissioner Monteverde justifiably lost his cool and in the heat of the moment, resigned verbally. Later, he reconsidered and rescinded it. Has this been done by others before? Yep: a mayor, town commissioner(s), and it was accepted and they remained.

This time, however, it was not, and a special meeting was called. After much dis-cussion, including much sup-port for Commissioner Monteverde from attendees, the board voted 3-1 to appoint somebody to fill the remain-der of Commissioner Mon-teverde’s term and not accept the rescind.

Due to number of words constraint, I can’t list all the things that Commissioner Monteverde brought to light that current officials would rather remain hidden. When he won originally, it was by a large margin (by our town standards). Mayor and com-mission wanted him gone. They replaced him with a commissioner who lost his seat because he came in dead last (two seats up — four peo-ple running). The next lowest going for re-election only won by two votes. They wanted him gone because he was ex-posing practices that had been happening with the mayor and her puppets in control, and now we once again have only one person to expose what they’re trying to pull. Biggest example: rammed a sewer system down our throats without voter input, voter support and which their own paid-for study says the town alone can’t afford on its own. The other towns and areas that would make it feasible want nothing to do with it. Also, he questioned lawyer charges and why the lawyer was being paid without the town even knowing what he was being paid for, just blindly signing checks to him.

I think the people are to-tally fed up with non-repre-sentation in our town. The lion is going to roar and the commissioners and mayor will not be happy.

ENDORSEMENT : CIRCUIT COURT JUDGE

Angeliadis has proven record of service

Editor’s note: The Chronicle Editorial Board issues en-dorsements of local candi-dates. Endorsement decisions are based on multiple inter-views conducted with each candidate by the board and staff. Candidates not endorsed by the editorial board of the Chronicle are encouraged to submit a rebuttal to [email protected] no later than Thursday, Aug. 13, 2020. All rebuttals submitted prior to the deadline are guaran-teed to publish no later than Monday, Aug. 17, 2020, the day before Election Day.

The nonpartisan race for Circuit Court judge pits incumbent judge

George Angeliadis against Brooksville attorney Pam Vergara. This race will be on all ballots in the primary and the winner of this con-test will have a six-year term in Hernando County within Florida’s Fifth Judicial cir-cuit. Voters from the circuit’s jurisdiction of Citrus, Her-nando, Lake, Marion and Sumter counties will select the winner of the contest.

Angeliadias was ap-pointed to the court in 2018 following the retirement of former judge Curtis J. Neal. He was chosen from among 11 applicants for the posi-tion. He oversees part of the civil docket dealing with medical negligence, personal injury, foreclo-sures, sinkhole and tobacco litigation. He also presides over cases in drug, mental health and veteran’s treat-ment courts where defen-dants can have charges dismissed if they complete court diversion programs.

Prior to his time on the bench, Angeliadis was attor-ney for the Sumter County Board of County Commis-sioners, the Hernando County Sheriff ’s Office Sum-ter County’s elections and tax offices and the Hernando County Clerk of Court. He also served as Crystal Riv-er’s lawyer for eight years

and he received a key to the city for his work.

His community service in-cludes time with the Brooks-ville Rotary Club, the Sheriff ’s Office Youth Edu-cational Program, and Teen Court. He is a long-time coach of the First Hernando Youth Soccer Club.

Vergara was initially edu-cated as an engineer and earned a Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering from the University of South Florida. She has served as a managing engineer for Jim Stidham & Associates in Tampa and as director of en-vironmental external affairs for the Florida House of Representatives before teaching at Hillsborough Community College. While teaching at the community college, she attended law school at Stetson University, where she graduated with a law degree in 2010.

According to her campaign website, she has legal expe-rience in cases relating to wills, trusts, probate and civil litigation while working with William B. Eppley, PA in Brooksville and she has an interest in protecting the elderly from exploitation and guardianship cases.

Her community service in-cludes serving as a board member of the Southwest Florida Water Management District, the Pasco-Her-nando Community Board of Trustees and the Byrd Alz-h e i m e r ’ s Re s e a r c h Institute.

Additional information about the candidates can be found on the Chronicle web-site at www.chronicleonline.com.

During his time in office, Angeliadis has demon-strated that he was a good choice for the judgeship. Based on his proven record of service and his experi-ence both as an attorney and as a judge, the Chronicle urges voters to return Ange-liadis to the bench in this nonpartisan race.

Hammer a dedicated leader

I have known Mark Hammer for more than three decades. He has been a close friend of mine since we were in high school, and I have watched him grow into the friendly, confident person he is today.

While he was in high school, Mark always enrolled in ad-vanced placement courses and involved himself in several ex-tracurricular activities and student committees for both his personal and academic growth. A proficient student, Mark was an enthusiastic leader who always maintained his reputation. With patience and an ability to explain and demonstrate strategy clearly, he drew out the very best from me, a reason why I looked up to him.

I know Mark to be a depend-able, honest, courteous, dedi-cated, responsible and proven leader. He is overtly active in numerous associations and or-ganizations within his commu-nity and district, some of which he presides over. While speaking personally with sev-eral local prominent business owners, all have agreed that Mark is the ideal candidate for the county commissioner seat, and all have offered him their unconditional support.

Mark will be an asset to any organization. I can confidently recommend him for any

position or undertaking he chooses to pursue, especially that of county commissioner.

Dr. Charles L. Smith II

Marin a true public servantLuis Marin, candidate for Cit-

rus County Commission is a textbook example of a public servant. I have worked with Luis for the past 30 years in law enforcement and have had the pleasure to supervise him for six of those years. During the course of his career, I have wit-nessed firsthand his profession-alism, tireless work ethic and dedication to duty. I was always amazed by the amount of pride Luis took in making the lives for the people in the commu-nity better each and every day. On numerous occasions, I have witnessed Luis comfort victims of crime and other misfortunes, by giving them money out of his own pocket to assist them with meals and transportation

First, and foremost the job of a county commissioner re-quires a qualified and experi-enced public servant, During this election season I have heard the numerous candidates for Citrus County Commission try to convince me they are the best candidate for county com-missioner, either because they were born here and/or have lived here for a long time; they own a business and know how

to make payroll; or because of their gender, they can bring di-versity to the board. In my opin-ion, these are not an example of public service. The place in which we are born and raised as children were not our choice; the fact you own a busi-ness is a self-serving profession that provides financial security for you and your family, and a person’s gender is not the only example of diversity. If these are some of the qualifications for a candidate for county

commission, then Luis is more than qualified. He has lived and raised his family in Florida for most of his adult life. He was born in Cuba and had to earn the privilege to become an American citizen. He has dedi-cated his entire personal and professional life as a public ser-vant with honor.

When Luis told me of his plans to run for county commis-sion, I asked him why. He stated he was tired of politics as usual, and that he wanted to continue his life of public service to the citizens of Citrus County. For this reason, I encourage my fel-low citizens to look past the smoke and mirrors of politics and vote for Luis Marin as your next Citrus County Commissioner.

Adams has my vote

I am very impressed, that many are writing to praise and suggest that their preferred candidate is the best for the job.

This is what makes America great: freedom of speech, free-dom to elect and choose the person, who we like and trust the most, to get the job done. But let us take a look at history, and what has this person done in the past, is his record a good

one, or should we take his/her word for it.

All this advertising, and talk, can be confusing for people that do not know these candi-dates personally, or haven’t had the opportunity to sit down and discuss issues with this person. These are important jobs, it could change things for us, bet-ter or worse, so think about it and do our homework.

I am blessed to know a lot of these candidates, this is due to my volunteer work. I am not here to suggest any of these candidates are bad, have no ex-perience, or unfit for the posi-tion they are running in this election to win, because I don’t know.

Supervisor of Elections is an important position, assuring that our government works cor-rectly, and it all starts in our elections office, especially in a very important election year.

Scott Adams is one of the most honest persons I know. Again, where is freedom of speech? We cannot believe ev-erything we hear, or read, it is up to us, the American people to check things out and make sure the right people are in the right job, trustworthy, commit-ted and ready to take on a very important position that we all know, carries a lot of responsi-bility and oversight. My vote, of course, is for Scott Adams.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Mardy Wid-man has watched protests against racial injustice unfold in her home-town of Portland, Oregon, for more than seven weeks but stayed away because, at age 79, she feared con-tracting the coronavirus.

But that calculus changed for Widman when President Donald Trump sent federal law enforce-ment agents to the liberal city to quell violent demonstrations — a tactic he’s said he’ll use for other cities. On Monday, a masked Wid-man was in the street with more than 1,000 other Portlanders — a far

larger crowd than the city had seen in recent days, as it entered its eighth week of nightly protests.

“It’s like a dictatorship,” Widman, a grandmother of five, said, holding up a sign that read: “Grammy says: Please feds, leave Portland.”

Far from tamping down the unrest, the presence of federal agents on the streets of Portland — and particularly allegations they have whisked people away in unmarked cars without prob-able cause — has given new momen-tum and a renewed, laser-sharp focus to protests that had begun to devolve into smaller, chaotic crowds. The use of federal agents against the will of local officials has also set up the po-tential for a constitutional crisis

— and one that could escalate if Trump sends federal agents else-where, as he says he plans to do.

State and local authorities, who didn’t ask for federal help, are awaiting a decision in a state law-suit that seeks to restrain the fed-eral agents’ actions.

On Tuesday, federal agencies de-fended their agents’ actions in Port-land, while detailing the tactics they said had been used against them. In a news conference in Washington, acting Department of Homeland Se-curity Secretary Chad Wolf said agents have been assaulted with la-sers, bats, fireworks, bottles and other weapons and “yet the city of Portland takes little to no action.”

Pakistan

Associated PressA health worker gives a polio vaccine to a child in Lahore, Pakistan, Tuesday, July 21, 2020. Pakistan resumed vaccinations against polio, months after the drive against this crippling children’s disease was halted because the novel coronavirus had overwhelmed the country’s health system.

Ohio speaker, four others arrested in $60M bribery case

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The powerful Republican speaker of the Ohio House and four associates were ar-rested Tuesday in a $60 mil-lion federal bribery case connected to a taxpayer- funded bailout of Ohio’s two nuclear power plants.

Hours after FBI agents raided Speaker Larry House-holder’s farm, U.S. Attorney David DeVillers described the ploy as likely the largest bribery and money-launder-ing scheme “ever been per-petrated against the people of the state of Ohio.”

Householder was one of the driving forces behind the nuclear plants’ financial res-cue, which added a new fee to every electricity bill in the state and directed over $150 million a year through 2026 to the plants near Cleveland and Toledo.

Also arrested were Householder adviser Jeffrey Longstreth, longtime State-house lobbyist Neil Clark, former Ohio Republican Party Chairman Matthew Borges and Juan Cespedes, co-founder of The Oxley Group, a Columbus-based consulting firm.

Sanger’s name to be dropped

from NYC clinicNEW YORK — Planned

Parenthood of Greater New York will remove the name of pioneering birth control ad-vocate Margaret Sanger from its Manhattan health clinic because of her “harm-ful connections to the eugen-ics movement,” the group announced on Tuesday.

Sanger, one of the found-ers of Planned Parenthood of America more than a cen-tury ago, has long provoked controversy because of her support for eugenics, a movement to promote selec-tive breeding that often tar-geted people of color and the disabled.

Linda Gordon, the histo-rian who first revealed Sanger’s eugenics collabo-ration in her 1976 book,

“Woman’s Body, Woman’s Right: the History of Birth Control Politics in America,” said Sanger was no more racist than many progres-sives of her time.

Minnesota judge lifts gag order in

George Floyd caseMINNEAPOLIS — A Min-

nesota judge on Tuesday lifted a gag order in the crim-inal case against four former officers charged in death of George Floyd, but said he would take under advise-ment a news media coali-tion’s request to make body camera footage more widely available.

In announcing his ruling, Hennepin County District Court Judge Peter Cahill said he agreed with defense attorneys’ arguments that a gag order would be unfair to their clients and limit their ability to defend against neg-ative publicity.

Ukraine hostage-taker surrenders, passengers unhurt

LUTSK, Ukraine — An “unstable” armed man who seized more than a dozen hostages on a long-distance bus in Ukraine’s western city of Lutsk was detained late Tuesday after a standoff that lasted for over 12 hours and all hostages were freed un-harmed, officials said.

The assailant agreed to release the hostages follow-ing a 15-minute phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Zel-enskiy’s deputy chief of staff Kyrylo Tymoshenko told reporters.

Shortly after the call, Zel-enskiy posted a brief video message on his Facebook page to urge Ukrainians to watch “Earthlings,” a 2005 American documentary ex-posing humanity’s cruel ex-ploitation of animals - as the hostage-taker had wanted.

Minutes later, the assailant walked out of the bus and surrendered to the police. Authorities said all 13 hos-tages he held were freed and no one was hurt.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump acknowledged a “big fla-reup” of COVID-19 cases, but divisions between the White House and Senate Republicans and differences with Demo-crats posed fresh chal-lenges for a new federal aid package with the U.S. crisis worsening and emergency relief about to expire.

Trump convened GOP leaders at the White House on Monday as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell pre-pared to roll out his $1 trillion package in days. But the adminis-tration criticized the legislation’s money for more virus testing and insisted on a full payroll tax repeal that could complicate quick pas-sage. The timeline ap-peared to quickly shift.

“We’ve made a lot of progress,” Trump said, but added, “Unfortu-nately, this is something that’s very tough.”

Lawmakers returned to a Capitol still off- limits to tourists, an-other sign of the nation’s difficulty containing the coronavirus. Rather than easing, the pan-demic’s devastating cycle is churning again, leaving Congress little choice but to engineer another costly rescue. Businesses are shutting down again, many schools will not fully re-open and jobs are disap-pearing, all while federal aid will expire in days.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said any attempt by the

White House to block money for testing “goes beyond ignorance.”

The political stakes are high for both parties before the November election, and even more so for the nation, which now has registered more coronavirus infec-tions and a higher death count — 140,800 — than

any other country.Treasury Secretary

Steven Mnuchin and acting chief of staff Mark Meadows will meet privately Tuesday with Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer.

Mnuchin vowed pas-sage by month’s end, as a $600 boost in jobless

aid is set to expire, and said he expected a fresh $1 trillion jolt of busi-ness tax breaks and other aid would have a “big impact” on the struggling economy.

On Capitol Hill, Mc-Connell faces not just pressure from the White House but also splits within his ranks, which have chiseled away at his majority power.

The package from Mc-Connell, being crafted behind closed doors, is expected to include $75 billion to help schools reopen. It will likely re-place an expiring $600 weekly unemployment benefits boost with a smaller amount. The cut in unemployment assis-tance is designed to en-sure that jobless people do not receive a greater benefit than if they were working. Regular state benefits vary widely, and the measure would peg the federal bonus payment to a percent-age of the state benefit.

McConnell’s package may also send a fresh round of direct $1,200 cash payments to Amer-icans below a certain income level, likely $75,000, and create a sweeping five-year lia-bility shield against coronavirus lawsuits.

Associated PressPresident Donald Trump holds a face mask Tuesday, July 21, 2020, as he speaks during a news conference at the White House.

US: Chinese targeting vaccine research

WASHINGTON — Hackers working with the Chinese government tar-geted firms developing vaccines for the coronavi-rus and stole hundreds of millions of dollars worth of intellectual property and trade secrets from com-panies across the world, the Justice Department said Tuesday as it an-nounced criminal charges.

The indictment does not accuse the two Chi-nese defendants of actu-ally obtaining the coronavirus research, but it does underscore the extent to which scientific innovation has been a top target for foreign govern-ments and criminal

hackers looking to know what American compa-nies are developing during the pandemic. In this case, the hackers re-searched vulnerabilities in the computer networks of biotech firms and diag-nostic companies that were developing vaccines and testing kits and re-searching antiviral drugs.

The charges are the latest in a series of ag-gressive Trump adminis-tration actions targeting China. They come as President Donald Trump, his reelection prospects damaged by the corona-virus outbreak, has blamed China for the pandemic and as admin-istration officials have escalated their denuncia-tions of Beijing, including over alleged efforts to steal intellectual property through hacking.

Protests energized by federal response

Page 15: bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com · 2020-07-22 · JULY 22, 2020. . HIGH. Scattered . showers and thunderstorms. PAGE A4. TODAY & next morning. WEDNESDAY. 73. 92. LOW. Florida’s

My thinking-cap is whirling about this morning as I yearn to head out on the volunteer paths that wind all around Citrus County with all of

my friends.I miss the volunteers whose friendship I cherish,

have gathered and held fashion show luncheons, yard sales, talent shows, arts and craft shows, spaghetti din-ners; the volunteers who bring entertainment for all of us to enjoy at the Art Center Theatre, the community band and the chorus. I yearn to write about them in expression of our appreciation of their immense tal-

ents and time shared with us so generously from the heart.

Of opportunity, Albert Ein-stein once said, “In the middle of difficulty, lies an opportunity.” And John D. Rockefeller wrote, “I always trusted every disaster as an opportunity.”

Remember Milton Berle? He said, “I believe if opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.”

With that said, I’d like to spot-light Chet Cole’s Key Training Center legacy, where volunteers channeled the opportunities to provide dignity, respect and love for the developmentally chal-

lenged, where opportunities presented themselves for us to embrace their need, and where the knock was heard and our county opened the door and built and built and built group homes, workshops, employment opportunities, apartments, day care and so much more.

It all began over 50-plus years ago with the arrival of the Van Nortwicks and their daughter, who was devel-opmentally challenged, and their dream of a facility that would accept that challenge and “run” with it. (The “Run” would come much later.)

A small group of educators and individuals met who were aware of that need, including myself. (I had a stu-dent in the third-grade class who was developmentally challenged.) We met at the Inverness Woman’s Club-house on Main Street, which now houses a real estate office ... and the legacy of Chet Cole began.

Many names come to mind of those dedicated vision-ary friends of the Key. Karla Rooks shared her love and skills of crafts and taught the clients of the Key to design crafts for sale; and much later, my daughter, Sue, developed the Imagination Workshop there.

There are others who took up the opportunity with optimism and enthusiasm: Garnet Miller, Horace and Pauline Allen, the Rev. Charles Robertson, who was our Chaplain; and Josh Spooner, whose daughter, Car-olyn Zemanik, serves on our Board of Directors as president. If my column space would allow, I could fill a page with those who saw the opportunity and volun-teered to make the Van Nortwick dream come true.

Chet Cole was the one who gathered all of us to-gether and lovingly gave his all, inspired us beyond measure with his amazing dedication and administra-tive abilities. He passed the torch to Melissa Walker, our current CEO, whose administrative skills are amazing.

An aspiring professional baseball player, Chet gave up that dream in order to find a way for his sister, Dor-othy, and the many other developmentally challenged to find their way to the Key Training Center where ac-ceptance, opportunities and love is lavishly given for the now 300-plus clients.

Daily, they head out to the workshop, the Key stores, and the community where they are employed with the aid of the Key’s staff, who provides their training.

Yes, the Key Run for the Money, the Key stores, the WYKE-TV and the radio station were all accomplished with the astute direction of Chet Cole and his commit-ted volunteer board through the years of the Key’s steady growth. It has been a blessing which we do not take for granted as we continue our Key’s journey to provide for the unfunded needs through the communi-ty’s loving support.

Volunteer opportunities abound at the Key. The need is great for employees at the Key, throughout our campus and in the group homes.

Chet Cole brought hope to parents and clients from all over the nation through the years, and, along with hope, he gained our lasting admiration as our mentor extraordinaire.

To volunteer or to seek employment, call the Key Training Center at 352-795-5541.

Meet the Prairie Dog

Mini Fact:Prairie dogs are hunted by foxes, eagles, red-tailed hawks, badgers and coyotes.

Next Week:Bison

If you’re on a driving vacation this summer, keep an eye out for little animals popping up and down in the prairies beyond the highway. Prairie dogs are great fun to watch. Theybusily dart from place to place, playing, working to build mounds, grooming one another, sending signals, and even seeming to kiss and snuggle.

What’s a prairie dog? A prairie dog is not a dog at all, but a rodent. A rodent is a mammal with teeth that keep growing as long as it lives. Other members of the rodent family include squirrels, chipmunks and mice. The most common prairie dog, the black-tailed, is found on the North American prairies. Another type, the white-tailed, lives higher up in mountainous areas. They grow to be between 12 and 16 inches long. Prairie dogs eat mostly grasses. They sometimes add sagebrush and other prairie plants and insects to their diet.

Prairie dog sounds Early settlers called them dogs because their calls sound like high-pitched dog barks.Experts say different barks and body movements send different signals. For example, one bark might warn of a hawk, while a different one might warn of a snake. Another bark might signal a person approaching with a weapon, while yet another bark might signal that the person is unarmed.

Prairie dog towns Prairie dogs live in big undergroundcolonies, or towns. Each family group has its own area, with separate rooms for the bathroom, food storage, sleeping and nurseries. Texas once had the largest prairie dog town on record. It covered about 25,000 square miles and was home to about 400 million prairie dogs!

Prairie dog mounds The mounds they build outside their tunnel entrances serve as lookout towers, where sentries can stand to watch for danger. In order to have a clear view if an enemy approaches, prairie dogs bite off the grass around their mounds. The mounds also keep water from flooding the tunnels below. If a sentry spots danger, it gives a danger call and then scampers below and listens. If it hears nothing, it peeks its head out for a double-check.

Keystone species The prairie dog is considered a keystonespecies upon which other animals depend. This means that if it were to die out, other animals might become threatened or disappear. Experts believe there are about 140 species of wildlife that eat prairie dogs or use their towns. However, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service doesn’t consider the black-tailed prairie dog to be endangered. In fact, in the United States, there are about 24 million of the little rodents.

Prairie dog defenses Prairie dogs do have sharp claws and teeth, but they are not good fighters. Their only real defense is to run away. They can run up to 35 mph for short distances. To make their underground towns safer, they dig escape tunnels that they cover up so nothing can come in. However, the prairie dog can open them quickly to get out. They don’t build mounds near these escape hatches, so enemies don’t know they’re there.

Words that remind us of prairie dogs are hidden in this puzzle. Some words are hidden backward or diagonally, and some letters are used twice. See if you can find:

Cook’s CornerSeaside Stroganoff

French researchers say Belgian Malinois shepherd dogs can sniff out humans exposed to the COVID-19 coronavirus from the distinct odor in armpits resulting from the infection. For the test, researchers used dogs trained in search and rescue, to find explosives, or to sniff out colon cancer in humans. Scientists from the National Veterinary School of Alfort say that four of the dogs had a 100% success rate in detecting the virusamong 360 human subjects.

We all know the foxtrot cadence of slow, slow, quick, quick, slow. But when you are the declarer, go slow, slow, slow, slow, slow at trick one while you work out a plan of campaign.

In today’s deal, South is in five diamonds. What should he do after West leads the club king? Also, what do you think about the bidding?

To take the auction first, North’s

redouble showed 10 points or more. (Yes, he might have re-sponded one heart.) At this point, East was known to have a very weak hand. He could have passed, but as he had a definite preference among the three unbid suits, he ex-pressed it by bidding one spade. South’s pass was forcing. Then, when North showed diamond sup-port, South jumped straight to five diamonds. He might have chosen three no-trump, which would have made with at least one overtrick.

Declarer has three potential los-ers: two spades and one heart. He has only 10 sure tricks. Perhaps East has the spade ace ... but that is so unlikely, given the bidding. First, South should hope to find hearts 3-3 and to establish a long heart. However, if East gets on lead, he can shift to a spade, killing the contract.

How does declarer keep East from winning a trick?

He lets West take trick one! Then South wins the next trick with dum-my’s club ace and discards a heart from hand. After drawing trumps, declarer cashes his heart ace, plays a heart to dummy’s king and ruffs a heart in hand.

When they do divide 3-3, South returns to dummy with a trump and discards a spade on the last heart.

8 p.m. on (TRAV)

Man vs. BigfootThis new docuseries opens with its central figure, survival expert Les Stroud, in a remote track of forested land in the Canadian province of Alberta, which is regarded by “squatch-ers” as a recognized Bigfoot hotspot. In the course of his investigation, however, Stroud puts his own reputation on the

line to uncover the truth about this elusive — and, let’s face it, quite possibly fictitious — creature.

9 p.m. on (FOOD)

Guy’s Grocery GamesHost Guy Fieri introduces car-nival-themed games and dishes to his six remaining chefs in “Summer Grillin’ Games Part 3.” Fieri gives the chefs a fun-nel-cake-sized twist by pairing them up to make a fried sweet-and-savory duo, plus a cheesy carnival classic. The pair that delivers the best dish wins $5,000 each and a spot in the semifinals, while the other four keep battling to survive. Eddie Jackson, Christian Petroni and Brooke Williamson are the judges.

10 p.m. on (TRAV)

Bigfoot is RealIn a new episode called “Knock, Knock, It’s Bigfoot,” the members of the GCBRO rush in to help a young wom-an and her husband who say they’re being terrorized by Big-

foot pounding on the walls of their house. As they explore the targeted residence and its prem-ises, the team finds a huge hand print that is at least two times larger than a human hand.

10 p.m. on (TruTV)

At Home With Amy SedarisIn a new episode called “Inspi-ration,” Amy (Amy Sedaris) explores that subject with a children’s author, a theater director and — just because this is that kind of show — an eccentric woman who lives in the woods. Later, Amy reveals the person who most pro-foundly inspired her to become the glamorous, boundlessly creative hostess she is today. Guest stars include David Alan Grier, Jackie Hoffman and Richard Kind.

10:03 p.m. on (LIFE)

Happily Ever AlteredMarriage requires a vow be-tween the partners to take each other for better or for worse, but what if the engaged cou-ple could start their union as

their best possible selves? This special, also a pilot for a po-tential series, gives couples the opportunity to spend the run up to their marriage to become the best version of themselves, separating as they undergo their physical and emotional trans-formations until surprising their partner on the big day.

10:03 p.m. on (NGEO)

Secrets of the BullsharkMany experts regard bull sharks as the most dangerous shark species, yet when you get down to it, relatively little is known about these creatures. This new one-hour documenta-ry unlocks some of the secrets of these huge beasts, including how they migrate and hunt. Dr. Ryan Daly, a marine biologist, leads a team of scientists using state-of-the-art technology to study the movements and be-havior of these sharks, hoping to understand why these smart, ferocious predators keep ven-turing more deeply into our backyards.

classified pages, along with Sudoku, Wordy Gurdy and a word puzzle.

Dear Annie: One of my el-derly relatives is a real sweetheart, but she also

is quite a talker. Our phone conversations go on and on —for 45 minutes or longer. I do not want to hurt her feelings, but her conversational skills far exceed my listening skills. The only way I can get a word in is to interrupt her from time to time. How can I diplomati-c a l l y shor ten those in-termina-ble phone conversa-tions? I recently had the s a m e problem with our n e w plumber. He is re-ally a nice guy and a good plumber, but he continues talking long after his plumbing job is done.

I guess that my being a bit introverted makes me less tol-erant of extroverts who like to hear themselves talk. I did not mean to make this letter sound hostile, because I do genuinely like my elderly relative and my plumber. — Enough Said

Dear Enough Said: With folks who take every conversa-tion into overtime, the best de-fense is a good offense. Start the call by saying, “I only have 15 minutes (or however long) to talk.” Your relative will have been given fair warning, and even if you still have to inter-rupt her midsentence, you won’t feel as self-conscious or bad about doing so, having al-ready established the expecta-tion. This approach could also work for the plumber. Let him know you have things to do right after the appointment. If he turns on the chatter faucet anyway, don’t be afraid to jump in and say, “You know I always enjoy talking to you, but I just really need to take care of some things. Thanks for com-ing by. I’ll show you out.” And don’t worry too much that you’ll hurt anyone’s feelings. I get the impression from your letter that you’re an especially courteous person, and it seems in your nature to go to lengths not to offend.

Dear Annie: I read your col-umn every day, and I’m always amazed by the unusual dilem-mas people write to you about. Now I am hoping you have an answer for me. Anyway, we have a dear friend we’ve known for many years, and she has a problem with dogs of all sizes. She is extremely afraid of them and reacts in an al-most childlike manner to-wards them. It seems to stem from her childhood in Sicily. One time, when she was 5 years old and walking in her neighborhood, a large dog barked at her and charged the fence around its house. It must have scared the bejesus out of her.

We recently got a puppy, and she doesn’t want to be around the puppy. She even cringes at photos of the puppy. Is there anything that can be done to help her without losing her friendship? — Dog Lover

Dear Dog Lover: You have to take puppy steps with your friend. Each time she comes over to your house, make sure your puppy’s just had a nice long walk, and put your puppy on a leash. Ask your pooch to go into a sitting position so that she can pet the puppy calmly. The first time, she may pet your puppy only once or not at all. But if she sees — through repeated exposure — that your dog is not the dog that ter-rified her when she was 5, she may be able to reprogram her fear. If she really can’t even try and be around a small puppy, she should seek professional help.
