A knack for mathematics and inclination for hard work propelled Victor Granaudo from a sheep farm in southern Italy to la dolce vita in Port Char lotte many years later. Victor, 70, was born in Flumeri, one of seven children. In 1950, his parents realized they could no longer support a large family on a small farm and led immigration paperwork. That process took ve years. Then, two weeks before depar ture, Victor’s passport was lost. “So my parents were given a choice. Wait until they could nd the passport — and by doing that they may have to start all over again — or leave me behind with my older brother and take a chance and call for me later.” They chose option two. “I wasn’t too happy,” Victor said. But he was told it would be quick. Three weeks probably. So Victor didn’t bother with school, but worked the farm with an older brother. One month. Two months. One year. Two. And nally came the call. He left for Springeld, Mass., in June 1958, three years after his parents had gone. Next problem cropped up when Victor’s mother took him in to register for school: Neither spoke English. “It wasn’t very easy,” he said. “The principal asked me many questions that I didn’t understand. “And by the time I left, they made the determination I was mentally retarded. “So nally I told my parents, ‘This is bad, I’m not going back.’ “And my mother said, ‘They have their own ways of teaching you English, you know, give it time.’” Finally, 40 days in, Victor was given a test in Italian. “And to their surprise, they found out I was normal,” he said. All good, except the 14-year-old had only completed fth grade in Italy. In Springeld, he was placed in seventh; without English and three years behind everyone else. “It was very difcult, obviously, so I failed everything except math,” he said. Note the solo success: math. Victor went to a math-science high school and was introduced to a whole different type of math: algebra. D. Near failing for the budding math whiz. “And one of the students in homeroom looked at my report card and said, ‘Are you stupid or what?’” But the goading became motivation. He then “worked really, really hard,” Victor said, which brought him straight A’s. The homeroom goader’s mother (Mrs. Pearlmutter), a savvy woman who came to school on his behalf, fought for Victor to take three math classes: trigonometry, solid geometry and calculus. More A’s. Finally, with graduation closing in, a history teacher asked about college. Victor hadn’t thought about it. Hadn’t even applied. “This was all new to my parents,” he told me recently. So the history teacher drove him across town to American International College, introduced him to the registrar and when the school year began in 1963, Victor was there. And he excelled. He nally gured out his calling. Victor became a math teacher, eventually getting a master’s degree and teaching high school in Wilbraham, Mass., for 33 years. At 57, he retired. Victor and Barbara Granaudo now spend seven months at their home in Port Charlotte, the rest at their second home in Cape Cod and visiting their three children. They are passionate tennis players. All in all, pretty good for the hard-working Italian kid from a sheep farm. Want to know more? Read Victor G. Granaudo’s book, “My Life, from Italy to America.” Life story to tell?

Law enforcement or medical personnel were dispatched to the 800-acre mud park nearly three dozen times during the recent Trucks Gone Wild event. No one from RYC could be reached for comment Monday. The most serious medical 911 call came after midnight Friday, when a 47-year-old man was hit by a speeding all-terrain vehicle. Charlotte County Fire/EMS spokeswoman Dee HawkinsGarland said the man, whose name was not released, was own to Lee Memorial Hospital in Fort Myers as a trauma alert. Many of the other 13 hospital trips stemmed from falls from moving vehicles or ATV accidents, and alcohol often was involved, Hawkins-Garland said. She added that ofcials are able to prepare for events like Trucks Gone Wild based on previous events. “When contracted for any special event, Charlotte County Fire/EMS examines and researches the type of activities Redneck Yacht Club event keeps EMS, police busyBy ADAM KREGERSTAFF WRITEROfficials: Weekend bash yields 32 calls to 911REDNECK | 6 SUN PHOTO BY ADAM KREGERAbove: Brad Baker, 17, is temporarily getting around in a wheelchair after being released from the hospital last week.

Display advertising 941-206-1214 When Englewood’s Southwest Allstar Cheer co-owner Cathy Baer heard her team’s name announced as division grand champions at the Jan. 31 USF Sundome competition, she and her group of 24 girls and four boys were excited. The victory meant that they were eligible for a regional contest in Jacksonville on May 2. After the thrill of victory died down, though, Baer’s thoughts turned toward fundraising to nance the trip. Because of their big victory in Tampa, entry fees to the Jacksonville competition were being paid by the event’s host, Diamond Cheer and Dance, but travel expenses for the team still needed to be covered. As Baer, and her sister and gym co-owner Lori Kimberlin, batted around fundraising ideas, one local business known for its charitable works stepped up to give them a jump-start. “Tammy (Still-Charles) at Black Widow Harley Owners’ Group (HOG), her daughter cheers for us,” Baer said. “She talked to the chapter and we went out to a (Rays’) game together and cooked hot dogs and parked cars. It was really nice of them to do, because even though Tammy works for them, I believe they would have helped us anyway.” She may be right about that. The Black Widow HOG Chapter 1786 makes a habit of donating money to local organizations in need of help. Much of the money they use for donations is earned during the month of March, when they park cars and sell food and beverages during Rays’ spring training games. President of the chapter’s Ladies of Harley group, Vickie Smolinski, said helping out in the community is really what denes the Black Widow HOG. “We’re not a biker club, we’re a biker group,” she said. “We are completely nonprot, and everything we earn for fundraisers is all donated.” Smolinski says the owners of Port Charlotte’s Black Widow Harley Davidson, Irene and Armand Pinard, not only sponsor the group, they allow the members to use the showroom parking lot on State Route 776 for parking and concession fundraising on game days, since it is close to the Charlotte Sports Park. In the past, Black Widow HOG has contributed to several other local charities, including the Backpack Kidz, Toys for Tots and the American Cancer Society. During the fundraiser for Southwest Allstar Cheer, the group was able to help collect and donate all $200 of the parking fees and half of the food and beverage proceeds, which puts the cheer team rmly on the path to its fundraising goal. Smolinski said her HOG chapter’s dedication to community service is one thing that attracted her to it when she moved to the area in 2008. And since she has been a part of the group, the Suncoast has really begun to feel like home, partially because of the time spent with others who share her interests. “I have met many good friends through there and it feels like a big family,” she said. “There are a lot of different types of people, but they all have the same goals — they want to ride and meet people.” For more information about the Black Widow HOG chapter, visit the website at www.BlackWidowHOG. com.

The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net C Our Town Page 3 LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWS CHARLOTTE COUNTY — The Department of Veterans Affairs issued a statement last week, stating they are eliminating the use of net worth for veterans. “Instead of combining the sum of a veteran’s income with their assets to determine eligibility for medical care and copay ments obligations, VA will now only consider a person’s gross household income and deductible expenses from the previous year,” according to the statement. Veterans must possess an honorable discharge. All others will not be accepted. Dave Donohew, Charlotte County veterans service ofcer, said there are 10 ways to determine a veteran’s eligibility into the VA Healthcare System. They are: Purple Heart in any war (Mariners Medal for Merchant Marines in World War II); Ten percent or higher VA rated disability; Served in Iraq and Afghanistan in the last ve years; Boots on the ground in Vietnam for the 15 presumptive conditions from Agent Orange exposure; Stationed at Camp LeJeune, N.C., from June 1957 until March 1, 1987, and have one of the 15 presumptive conditions from the contaminated water; Discharged for disability by the military, early outs or hardship discharge in the last year; Served in the Persian Gulf from Aug. 2, 1990, until Nov. 11, 1998; If a veteran is catastrophically disabled; Those veterans actively enrolled from Dec. 1997, until Jan. 15, 2003 were grandfathered into the system. The tenth way to become eligible is by income: $34,430 for a single person, $39,325 for a married couple, $44,220 for a married couple with one dependent and $49,115 for married with two dependents. In the past, assets were included in a veteran’s income — not to exceed $80,000 — or a veteran was not eligible. With the new ruling, as long as veterans meet the above income requirements, assets will not be counted. Assets are considered 401K savings accounts, regular checking or savings accounts, CDs, a second home, stocks and bonds and they still must fall at $80,000 or below. “A veteran with low income and high assets could be eligible now,” Donohew said. “For example, I had a guy come in one time who had $2 million in the bank, given to him by his father, but only collected $800 a month from Social Security. I had to turn him away. Now, he’d be eligible, even if he draws on that money, as long as he is still under the single veteran threshold of $34,430 annually.” Donohew said he has no idea how many veter ans in Charlotte County would be affected by the new change in eligibility. “I have turned away many veterans because of this,” he said. “Now, they can join the VA Healthcare System. Hopefully, the word will get out and they will come back.” To learn more, call the Charlotte County Veterans Ofce at 1050 Loveland Blvd., Port Charlotte, at 941-764-5579 or their Englewood ofce at 941681-3716. Veterans may submit updated income infor mation at www.1010ez. med.va.gov. or visit their nearby VA health care facility. For more infor mation, visit www.va.gov/ healthbenets or call VA toll-free at 1-877-222VETS (8387).Veterans Affairs revises eligibility standardsBy AL HEMINGWAYSUN CORRESPONDENT GULF COVE — Kelly Mannarino heard it scurrying in the crawl space of her home in Gulf Cove. Mannarino didn’t expect when she investigated that she would come up close to the snout of a large lizard with a whitish gray face and snake-like scales. She suspects the lizard was a tegu. “That’s the face,” Mannarino said after reporting to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and conducting her own Internet search to identify the lizard she encountered. “I will never forget that face,” she said. If Mannarino is right, that would be an unusual exotic lizard to spot locally. Florida is the home for more than 40 exotic lizards and other reptile species. The FWC determined breeding populations of tegus, native to Argentina and other South American countries, established themselves in Hillsborough County in 2005 and Dade County in 2008. They’re also breeding in Polk County. Tegus have been sighted in Tallahassee and Panama City; however, ofcials believe those lizards were indi viduals released into the wild. According to FWC non-native wildlife biologist Jenny Eckles, the lizard Mannarino spotted may have been a pet, either released or escaped from its owner, or the lizard might have been a Mexican spiny or black spiny iguana, which are more common to the area. Iguanas, unlike tegus, are good climbers and could take up residence in an attic space, Eckles suggested. “Denitely not,” Mannarino said of the possibility the lizard being another species. The lizard has also been sighted, she said, in her and neighbors’ yards. Mannarino doesn’t have a camera to photograph it. According to the FWC website at myfwc.com, tegus are black and white with banding on their tails and can grow to 4 feet. Tegus tend to burrow, especially if winter temperatures drop. They are omnivorous, feeding on fruits and vegetables, lizards and small mammals, cat or dog food. Females can lay 35 eggs, which hatch in Florida early in the summer. Rick Peleske, vice president of the Property Owners of Gulf Cove Association, said he knows the community has a population of iguanas, usually 2 feet long, and even has photographs of eagles swooping down and plucking up the iguanas. Peleske, however, said he’s not heard any reports of tegus. Craig Green of the Port Charlotte-based Done Right Trapping has been a trapper for more than 30 years, 14 of those years locally. He tried but couldn’t capture Mannarino’s lizard. Green never saw the lizard, but he’s captured his share of exotic species. He said he hasn’t captured a tegu locally. But tegus roaming in Gulf Cove or elsewhere locally is not an impossibility. The FWC discourages residents from trying to capture tegus or other exotic species on their own. Ofcials do ask residents to try to take a photograph of the animal, note the location and report the sighting to the FWC by calling toll-free 1-888-483-4681 or posting a report online at IveGot1.org.

Our Town Page 4 C www.sunnewspapers.net The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWS When it comes to creating the ultimate dream home, size matters. So does location — 8.8 acres of prime Casey Key real estate with Gulf and bay frontage is being offered by Realtor Joel Oss of Exit King Realty of Venice. “It is all about what can be and what will be there," Oss said of the $14,750,000 listing for the largest property on Casey Key. Reaching out to the international market, Oss teamed with architect William Tagland who created several concept drawings of what could be built on the unique site. The drawings honor Sarasota School of Architecture design concepts while also suggesting a worldclass family retreat and preserving the pristine site. There is 450 feet of beach along the Gulf of Mexico. Other than nesting sea turtles, that narrow strip of land sees little foot trafc. Dolphins swim offshore. The bulk of the listed property comprises a peninsula that juts out into the bay east of Casey Key Road. That parcel has nearly 300 feet of frontage, a dock, submerged land and private lagoon. “We vision a main dwelling of approx 10,000 square feet, a guest house, art gallery, ofce, pool/spa retreat cabana, boat dock, heliport, garages for automobiles and beach toys, a grand pavilion for outdoor entertainment and many garden sanctuaries viewing the lagoon, bay and gulf in a relaxed atmosphere,” Oss said. While there is a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath house on the site, its 1951 construction, bathroom xtures and kitchen appliances make it a likely tear-down. The most valuable part of the house is the pecky cypress used in its interior. the Realtor said. Now held in the Elbert Gary Sutcliff trust, the property has been in the family since the 1950s. “This will take a very special buyer, one that can see a project of this caliber through to fruition,” Oss said.

A Venice pastor has been invited to speak at the prestigious event April 17 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. that will focus on “The Persecution of Christians in the Middle East.” The Rev. Philip Enloe, pastor of Harvest Chapel in Venice, will join 16 other pastors and religious leaders from Florida and across the country in the ECOSO Chamber at U.N. Headquarters in New York City. Donald Mendenall, a church leader who is helping to grow Harvest Chapel, will accompany Enloe to New York City. A dozen top leaders will be keynote speakers at the conference and include the Rev. Franklin Graham of The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse; Pastor John Hagee, Founder and President of The John Hagee Ministries, San Antonio, Texas; Rabbi Joshua M. Davidson, Temple Emanu-El, N.Y.C.; and H.E. Mrs. Maria Christina Perceval, Ambassador, Permanent Representative of Argentina to the U.N. Enloe was invited to participate in the confer ence due to his association with Kevin Jessip, of Florida, founder, Global Strategic Alliance and Reclaim America. Jessip is a licensed minister with the Association of International Gospel Assemblies Inc. “I’ve known Kevin for over seven years,” Enloe said. According to Enloe, Kevin was leading a troubled lifestyle before they met, and his mother asked Enloe to help when Enloe was involved with advanced evangelism. “That is what I did before starting Harvest Chapel ve and a half years ago with my wife, Jan,” Enloe said. “I’ve been in all 50 states several times and 48 nations.” Kevin’s mother had only asked for two weeks but he stayed with Enloe for six years. “Kevin joined Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke (a German mega-evangelist who led 80 million to Christ in Nigeria from 1999 to 2011) and now is part of his staff,” Enloe said. “It’s because of Kevin’s association with Bonnke that I got invited.”TopicEnloe is still thinking through what he will say during his 10 minutes on the panel — “We all get 10 minutes to speak,” he said. He said he will not name any specic religious group but will address that the “religious extremists will kill you if you don’t convert.” The conference will be broadcast live from the U.N. at http://web cast.un.org.

Our Town Page 6 C www.sunnewspapers.net The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 FROM PAGE ONE the standout baseball player said knowing he’ll miss out on the end of his senior season and a chance to play next year in college is difcult. “I’ve thought about it,” Baker said last week. “It’s hard not to because (baseball) was taken from me.” Baker temporarily is getting around in a wheelchair because he can’t put weight on his right leg. He has rehab sessions twice a week at Fawcett Memorial Hospital Sports & Rehab Services. And he’s still juggling being a student, since his teachers keep giving him work. But things could have been much worse — the Florida Highway Patrol’s crash investigator and Lee Memorial doctors said Baker’s helmet saved his life. “He’s a smart kid,” said his mother, Lisa Marie Clougher, who admitted she was hesitant about the idea of her son buying a motorcycle. Baker won her over with his impressive knowledge about motorcycle safety and laws. “I have a car, too, but when I rode my bike I paid more attention to the little things,” Baker said. “I always went the speed limit and slowed down around turns. I tried to do my part to be safe, but the other half of it is kind of hoping other (motorists) do their part. And I guess that didn’t happen (here).” Baker said he doesn’t recall last month’s wreck, going to the emergency room or being in intensive care. “I only remember rehab,” he said. The crash victim has insurance, as does the 79-year-old seasonal resident from New York whom the FHP says was at fault for pulling in front of Baker. Baker’s family has retained local attorney Cort Frohlich, who said that Baker’s medical bills are about $300,000 so far, and he is “still working on sorting out insurance.” The injured boy’s father, who shares the same name, said he is bothered that the school district does not have insurance to help in cases where an athlete is hurt while driving himself to a game. Due to budget cuts about ve years ago, Charlotte County Public Schools began requiring athletes to nd their own rides to away games that are in the area. Before, students took a bus to all contests and were covered by insurance through the school district. “They’re putting them in a state of peril,” the elder Baker said. “(The school district) is telling you what to do, but you’re not insured? I don’t get that.” Clougher said a team bus, even if for a short distance, is “safer” and “provides a lot more camaraderie.” The younger Baker said he likes the “tradition” of taking a bus to all games, and driving yourself “is a little weird.” School district spokesman Mike Riley said there have been “discussions” about the topic, but it’s unlikely the local “Meet me at the Game” policy will change. He said the school district doesn’t insure athletes driving themselves because it could be a slippery slope. “What about the girl who has the lead in the school play and has to get there?” Riley asked. “And we’ve seen kids get hurt just coming to school in the morning.” Riley said what happened to Brad Baker “is a horrible tragedy” and “we wish the best for him.”Email: akreger@sun-herald.comCRASHFROM PAGE 1 expected at the event,” she said. “Our agency plans appropriately to ensure resources are sufcient to handle any situations which could presumably occur.” The sole arrest at the mud park over the threeday event came late Saturday night. Andrew Crase, 26, of Fort Lauderdale, was charged with battery and felony child abuse after reportedly grabbing his ance and knocking their 1-year-old son out of her arms during an argument. A Charlotte County Sheriff’s report shows the child fell on his head and his mother fell on top of him. EMS deter mined the alleged victims didn’t require further medical attention. Crase, who was released Sunday from the Charlotte County Jail on $11,500 bond, reportedly had driven off on his and his ance’s four-wheeler when they were supposed to be putting their child to bed, sparking the argument. The Sheriff’s Ofce declined to comment about the RYC Monday. Law enforcement ofcials were called to the RYC 14 times over the long weekend. Medical ofcials were called out 18 times. The mud park’s next major event is “Memorial Day Mayhem” in May.Email: akreger@sun-herald.comREDNECKFROM PAGE 1 CRASENORTH PORT — Authorities have released more details about the people involved and factors that contributed to a serious crash Friday afternoon at the inter section of Joyce Avenue and Dakota Terrace, near Chamberlain Boulevard in North Port. Marisa L. Krieger, 20, of North Port, was trapped in a car for almost an hour Friday afternoon after her boyfriend, Derrick M. Wing Jr., 20, also of North Port, ran a stop sign and hit a power pole next to the intersection. City spokesman Josh Taylor said the accident happened shortly after 1 p.m. when Wing, in a gray 2015 Nissan Versa, ran a stop sign traveling south on Dakota and struck a beige 2003 Toyota Sienna van, driven by Phillip J. Basile, 71, of Port Charlotte. An accident report states Basile was driving west on Joyce when he collided with Wing and Krieger’s car at the intersection of Dakota and Joyce. Wing then hit the power pole before stopping on the side of the road. Both vehicles were thought to be traveling at the posted speed limit of 30 mph, authorities said. Wing was cited for running a stop sign and operating a motor vehicle in a careless or negligent manner, the report states. Basile’s van had an estimated $5,000 worth of damage to the front end, and Wing’s brand new car had about $10,000 worth of damage, according to the report. First responders had to remove the roof of Wing’s car to pull Krieger from the vehicle. Florida Power & Light ofcials said about 3,000 residents in the area lost power when FPL shut it off about 15 to 20 minutes after the accident so that re personnel could get Krieger out of the car safely. FPL ofcials said that by 3 p.m., most people in the area had their power back on, with the exception of a handful of customers. David Richards, who lives on the 4900 block of Maurbach Terrace nearby, said his son Mike heard the pole outside of their house get hit, and he went outside to make sure nothing was on re. Richards said his son helped Wing out of the car, but Krieger remained stuck inside the vehicle for nearly an hour before reghters and paramedics could extricate her. The report states everyone was wearing seat belts, and Wing and Basile were transported to the North Port ER, off Toledo Blade Boulevard, with minor injuries. Krieger was own by Bayite helicopter to Blake Medical Center in Bradenton. Authorities could not give Krieger’s condition as of Monday afternoon. According to Facebook, Wing and Krieger have been in a relationship since December 2013, and they both work at the Gardens of Venice assisted living facility on Jacaranda Boulevard in Venice. Email: ashirk@sun-herald.com Driver, 22, cited in power pole crashBy ALLISON SHIRK STAFF WRITER the month at $136,000 compared to $157,500 in January. Still, February’s median single-family home price was up slightly from February 2014’s median price of $132,900, according to the Realtor association. (The median is the midpoint; half the homes sold for more, half for less.) The median price of a condo also took a downward turn from $134,000 in January to $115,000 in February, the association reported. But the median price for a condo was up markedly from last February, when it stood at $97,500. Meanwhile, the month’s-supply of inventory for a single-family home in Charlotte remained at in February at just over four-anda-half months; in the condo category, month’s supply dropped in February from about four-and-a-half months to just under four. “Months-supply” of inventory is an estimate of the number of months it will take to deplete the current inventory given recent sales. In a balanced market, real estate experts note, the supply of inventory hovers around ve to six months. The months of supply is an estimate of the number of months it will take to deplete the current inventory, given the recent sales rate. “These numbers support the fact that units priced competitively are moving quickly and netting the sellers more money,” recently noted Jim Quinn, president of the Realtors association. Sarasota County’s Realtor association reported 585 closed home sales in February in the single-family category, up from 514 in January. A year ago, the number of closed sales totaled 532. The median sales price for a single-family home in February was $196,000, up from $190,000 in January. In February 2014, the median price stood at $185,000. In the condo category, the total number of closed sales in February were 252, up from 229 in January. In February 2014, the total number of closed condo sales were 255. The median home price for a condo was $187,500 in February, compared to $185,000 the previous month, the Sarasota Association of Realtors reported. In February 2014, the median sale price for a condo was $170,000. “Once the holidays have passed, home shoppers jumped off the fence and started signing contracts,” said Association President Stafford Starcher. “We are now above the record pace of sales experienced in 2014, and the pending transactions would indicate the current pace isn’t going to slow in the foreseeable future.” Meanwhile, inventory levels in Sarasota County also remain low. The month’s supply of inventory in the single-family home category hovers at about four-and-a-half months; in the condo category monthssupply stands at about ve months. “Properties ... are selling at a high pace, and prices are on the rise, which tells us we are experiencing a healthy, vibrant market,” Starcher said. “The inventory totals have leveled off, which means we could see even higher prices going forward, based on the laws of supply and demand.” Florida’s housing market also reported more closed sales, higher median prices, increased pending sales and more new listings in February, according to the latest housing data released by Florida Realtors. Closed sales of singlefamily homes statewide totaled 18,701 last month, up 19 percent over February 2014. And median prices for single-family existing homes last month was $179,995, up 9.1 percent from the previous year, according to data from Florida Realtors Industry Data and Analysis department. Condo sales totaled 8,260 last month, up 7.4 percent compared to February 2014. The statewide median price for condo properties in February was $143,000, up 8.3 percent over the year-ago gure. “Florida’s housing market continues to show positive momentum,” said Florida Realtors President Andrew Barbar. Nationwide, existing-home sales increased modestly in February, but constrained inventory levels pushed price growth to its fastest pace in a year, according to the National Association of Realtors. Total existing-home sales, which are completed transactions that include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, rose 1.2 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.88 million in February from 4.82 million in January.Email: bbarbosa@sun-herald.comHOMEFROM PAGE 1 —Source:MyFloridaRegionalMLS$150K $160K $170K $140K $80K $90K $100K $110K $120K $130K MEDIANHOMESALEPRICESFROMPUNTAGORDAPORTCHARLOTTENORTHPORTREALTORS, NOVEMBER2011FEBRUARY2015 NDJFMAMJJASONDJFMAMJJASONDJFMAMJJASONDJF $136,000 SINGLEFAMILYHOMESSOLDBYPUNTAGORDAPORTCHARLOTTENORTHPORTREALTORS, NOVEMBER2011FEBRUARY2015 —Source:MyFloridaRegionalMLS 349 600 550 500 450 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 0NDJFMAMJJASONDJFMAMJJASONDJFMAMJJASONDJF PETSAREGOOD FO RY OURMENTALANDPHYSICALWELLBEING.Find that special companion in the Classifieds today!

PORT CHARLOTTE — A local man remained behind bars Monday on $700,000 bond after threatening two men with a gun and ring warning shots, according to the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Ofce. Donald Summers, 53, armed with a semi-automatic handgun, approached one of the victim’s homes on Meehan Street early Saturday morning, yelling, “Do you have a problem with my daughter?” the sheriff’s report states. Summers’ daughter, who lives near by, was walking behind him trying to stop him, and there were about a half a dozen other people following the gunman. It’s unclear from reports what the beef was about. Summers allegedly held the gun to one man’s head and chest and then to another man’s chest. One victim went inside to call 911, and Summers followed him, still threatening him, authorities said. Summers eventually began walking away, but someone yelled to him and he reportedly told her to shut up and red two shots into the ground. Summers left on a motorcycle, but author ities quickly obtained an arrest warrant and found the suspect that afternoon at his home on the 3300 block of Port Charlotte Boulevard. Summers, whom the report shows threatened one of the victims with a gun in November, was charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of armed home burglary. The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office reported the following arrests: Adriane Lantz Gillin-Romo, 29, 22400 block of Westchester Blvd., Port Charlotte. Charge: driving with a revoked license as a habitual offender. Bond: $5,000. Mark Thomas Hadley, 43, 12100 block of Burrow Ave., Port Charlotte.

Kohl Michael Kelsay, 21, homeless in Port Charlotte. Charges: possession of a controlled substance without a prescription and possession of drug paraphernalia. Bond: $7,000. Clifford Lachman, 28, 15300 block of Mango Drive, Punta Gorda. Charges: possession of more than 20 grams (about 1.4 pounds) of marijuana, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, possession of drug paraphernalia and violation of probation (original charge: criminal mischief). Bond: none. Matthew William Scott, 25, 2400 block of N.W. Pine Bluff Ave., Arcadia. Charge: (original charges: two counts of possession of a controlled substance without a prescription). Bond: none.

Bond: $3,500. —Compiled by Adam KregerAlleged gunman remains jailed | POLICE BEATThe information for Police Beat is gathered from police, sheriff’s office, Florida Highway Patrol, jail and fire records. Not every arrest leads to a conviction and guilt or innocence is determined by the court system. PUNTA GORDA — Dwayne Johnson had been scheduled to go to trial Monday for a seconddegree murder charge, but his day in court has been delayed. Assistant public defender Toby Oonk, as Johnson’s lawyer, has led a petition for writ of certiorari — a sort of judicial review — with the Second District Court of Appeals. The murder case has been postponed pending the appellate court’s consideration. The petition for writ, led Friday, is asking the higher court to take a look at a decision a judge made earlier this month to not dismiss charges or reassign prosecutors in the murder case. Johnson, who is in the Charlotte County Jail, has alleged he will receive an unfair trial because a jail staff member sent a recording of a privileged conver sation between he and Oonk to an assistant state attorney on the case. The 36-page petition for writ, prepared by Oonk, begins, “This case presents an opportunity for this Court (Second DCA) to clarify a par ticularly troubling and unsettled area of law: when the interception and actual possession of attorney-client communications by law enforcement and the Ofce of the State Attorney in a criminal case is established, must the defendant bear the additional burden of showing a material benet to the state, or a material detriment to the defense — actual prejudice — before disqualication should be granted? If not, what is the appropriate legal standard to apply to an analysis of these facts?” Johnson is also trying to get charges dropped in two other cases. The 32-year-old Port Charlotte man most notably is accused of shooting to death Kello Bonhomme during a cocaine deal in September near the Murdock Walmart. A status hearing for Johnson’s murder case has been scheduled for May 24 at the Charlotte County Justice Center.Petition filed for accused murdererSTAFF REPORT JOHNSONWater pressure advisory issuedAccording to Charlotte County Utilities ofcials, customers in the Rotonda area probably will experience slightly lower water pressure from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. today. There will be a water main connection for the Rotonda Boulevard West Water Main Replacement and Sidewalk Capital Improvement Project. Contractors will be in the area working on the water lines and the Rotonda Booster Station will be taken off-line for the time period of the work. Ofcials have notied directly several homes at which water service will be interrupted during the construction period. They do not expect any other customers to notice a dramatic difference in water pressure, but if customers experience periods of lower pressure, it will be only temporary, and is not expected to last more than six hours. Service is expected to be fully restored by 4 p.m. For more information, call 941-764-4304.Ladies luncheon, fashion show setThe Cultural Center of Charlotte County, 2280 Aaron St., Port Charlotte, will play host to a ladies luncheon and fashion show, with the doors opening at 11:30 a.m. and lunch being served at 12:30 p.m., today in the Conference Center.

Our Town Page 10 C www.sunnewspapers.net The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 Common sense: Minimize riskEditor: At least twice this week “climate change” deniers have voiced their opinions. As someone who took courses in the atmospheric sciences as well as chemistry and physics at university, albeit over half a century ago, I am both amused and saddened by their views. It may be hard for anyone whose scientic insight was obtained from the Book of Genesis and “Flintstone” reruns, but we do know that the earth’s climate has not been stable, either over geologic time or even historic time. Ice ages have come and gone a number of times, most recently departing about 10,000 years ago. Since then, there were various times when the climate was quite different from today’s. A thousand years ago it was warmer, allowing settlements to develop in Iceland and Greenland. In the 13th century, a cold spell lasting decades is believed to have reduced Europe’s population by a third, due to famine, disease and war. It happened again in the 17th century. We also know a great deal about physics and chemistry. We know that certain gases (carbon dioxide and methane, in particular) can absorb infrared terrestrial radiation and add energy to the atmosphere. Industrialization, transpor tation and agriculture have been increasing these gases in the atmosphere. So even if the case on climate change has not been 100 percent proven to everyone’s satisfaction, common sense says we should avoid doing things which could make the situation worse in case the 97 percent of scientists who are sounding the alarm are right after all.Robert Ewart Port CharlotteA letter about what was it?Editor: Recently I noticed a loose handle on a drawer next to the sink in my bathroom. I dragged my old body into the kitchen and took the screwdriver from the drawer next to the stove. (Don’t ask why I keep the screwdriver next to the stove. I just do.) When I arrived back in the bathroom I looked in the mirror and said to myself, “Self, what are you doing standing in the bathroom with a screwdriver in your hand?” Answer: “I don’t know!” Funny how an old brain works. See problem. Immediately aware of solution to problem. Activate body to seek necessary tool and know exactly where tool is. Obtain necessary tool and take it to the scene of the problem. And then, OOOPS! Knowledge of the next step evaporates into thin air! From what I read and hear, these things happen to most of us oldsters. There are stories about misplaced car keys, missing dates for appointments, taking the trash out on wrong days, calling A when you meant to call B, socks that don’t match and not nding the car in the parking lot. Most of us just take it all in stride. You can’t let these little things throw you? Part of old age. Someone asked me how often these things happen. I can’t remember. Hello? John M. Cavanaugh Punta GordaReal is good, good is realEditor: The answer to the question “what is beyond the outer edge of our universe?” is being revealed in the Urantia book. God’s glorious divine creation of the universe is “evolutionary,” the cosmic technique of constant growth. The principle of evolution is gradual progressive development. The Bible tells us, “God created the heavens and the earth and everything in it.” Science seeks to identify, analyze and classify the segmented parts of the cosmos. Revelation afrms that the cosmos is universal, eternal, absolute and innite. The innite “I AM” (God, no beginning, no end, as the Bible says) is therefore endless, limitless, all-inclusive, timeless, spaceless and unqualied. Some day when astronomers peer through increasingly powerful telescopes into the mysterious stretches of outer space they will behold the amazing evolution of almost countless physical universes and will realize that they are gazing upon the mighty outworking of the unsearchable plan of God, creator of everything. The pursuit of knowledge constitutes science; the search for wisdom is philosophy; the love for God is religion. Revelation afrms that these three are one and that all are good. The eternal real is the good of the universe and not the time illusions of space evil. In the spiritual experience of all personalities, always is it true that the real is the good and the good is the real.Tina Van Polanen PlacidaLiving daily to help othersEditor: I need more money! Being a poor, retired man on a small xed income, where can I get it? I have no way to borrow it. No one will give me any. Am I worth anything? With gold in my teeth, silver in my hair, oil in my skin, gas in my stomach, and lead in my feet, I could be worth a fortune. Three friends visit me daily, for I live alone. Will Power arrives every morning, and helps me out of bed. He goes, then Charlie Horse comes, and puts me in pain. When he leaves, Arthur Itis shows up, and makes me stiff all over. When he is gone, I look in the mirror and see a saggy, wrinkled, face. What has happened to me? Father Time has made me an old man. But I always think young, for I am young at heart, and live every day to help others in some way.Donald Bohr Port CharlotteDistrict plans a real burdenEditor: I attended the South County Overlay District meeting recently that includes my CI (commercial intensive) property. According to these proposed plans, commercial property owners in this area are required to make very extensive and costly improvements to their property if they choose to expand or remodel their commercial property. These improvements must be done whether the property owner wants, needs, or can afford these improvements. These improvements include landscaping (30 percent of site area) — each tree is worth various points. Buildings are required to have canopies, peaked roofs, awnings and seating areas outside with benches, pedestrian walkways, etc. Most of these commercial property owners are small business owners earning just enough money to support their families and save a little bit for retirement. These improvements will cost us to install them and then cost us in higher real estate taxes that we have to pay. How many of our county commissioners own commercial property in this area? Probably none. So I’m sure they cannot understand how unfair the burden of these improvement plans are to us.Rae Earnest Punta GordaGood people help nd purseEditor: There are still many good, helpful people in Port Charlotte. On March 17, I left my purse in a Dollar Tree wagon in the parking lot. I didn’t immediately realize that I didn’t have it. Thank you to the three ladies and a gentleman who went store to store to see if anyone had turned in my purse, while another lady stayed with me. She called the Sheriff’s Ofce and a very understanding and comforting deputy came and led a report on what was in my purse. My sincerest thanks to the people who found my purse and returned it, with every thing in it, to the ofce of the complex that I live in. I would also like to thank the three ladies, a gentleman and a compassionate deputy for helping me look for my purse.Irene Bebak Port CharlotteAppreciates words of pastorEditor: I would like to commend the pastor of my church, the Rev. John Fitch, for helping so many of us, by his preaching, to look into our hearts as God does. Perhaps he will submit one of his sermons to the Sun so that others can spiritually benet this Lenten season.John G. Mulholland Port CharlotteStill waiting for packageEditor: In reply to Snow, Rain, Heat, Gloom of Forwarding, in the March 15 Sun . Don’t call us, we’ll call you, U.S. Postal Service. Starting Dec. 18, 2014, Christmas package from our daughter in Delaware, not delivered. Postal Service wanted to know if delivery was made. No. Maybe the address was not on the package. Yes, it was. Postal man said, “Maybe it fell off of the truck.” Oh really! Forget the insurance, that’s a joke, and the joke is on the sender. Our son sent a package Feb. 16 this year. It still hasn’t arrived. “Same replies.” We guess the U.S. Postal Service doesn’t y, ship or truck through different states. U.S. Postal Service has all the excuses one can dig up. I could complain more, but didn’t think you would want a 300-word letter.Barbara Haas Punta Gorda OUR VIEW LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Letters are welcome on virtually any subject, but we do have some rules.

HOW TO SUBMIT A LETTER TO THE EDITOREmail letters to letters@sun-herald.comChairman — Derek Dunn-Rankin Publisher — David Dunn-Rankin Executive Editor — Chris Porter Editorial page editor — Brian Gleason Editorial writer — Stephen Baumann Editor — John Hackworth V IEWPOINT Love, marriage; horse, carriageAccording to the 2010 Census, more than onehalf million couples in Florida live together out of wedlock. Maybe it’s not a big surprise these days, but that represents more than 7 percent of all households in the state. Shacking up. Living in sin. And living illegally, according to a state law that dates back to 1868. This week, Florida House and Senate committees voted to repeal the law, an anachronism, certainly, but one that holds the threat of a $500 fine or a 60-day jail term. A similar bill failed three times in the past five years, so final passage is hardly assured. Legislators this week never cited an example of the law actually being enforced. It’s just one of those antiquities that moulder in the law books — like the way the word “moulder” moulders in the dictionary. OK, there may be good reasons for concern about the weakening of social institutions like marriage. But a law that blankets citizens for a private housing choice hardly addresses the matter. Then again, imagine the budget revenues if we did enforce it. Commission recommits to Parkside improvementsThe Charlotte County Commission today will formalize its decision to move ahead with a second multi use path in the Parkside Community Redevelopment Area. The nearly 10-foot-wide path will run for two-thirds of a mile from U.S. 41 along West Tarpon Boulevard to Ambrose Lane and then to Elkcam Boulevard, where it will link up with the path currently under construction. The two paths — complemented by landscaping enhancements and decorative lighting — are the first of more than a dozen walkways envisioned in the Parkside conceptual multi use path and greenway trail system traversing the district. That conceptual plan also calls for pocket parks to be situated along the trailways, which eventually would include bridges across canals/water ways and allow golf carts and other electric vehicles. The board approved the project at its March 3 meeting when it sat as the CRA board. The commission action is required to add the $974,000 cost to this year’s capital improvements project budget. The Tarpon/Ambrose path will be paid for out of the general fund and repaid with tax-increment money generated within the district. At the same March 3 meeting, the board freed up some of the $9 million it pledged in TIF-backed loans to the district by shifting the responsibility for the cost of the Sunrise Lake/Sunshine Waterway cleanup away from the CRA. We applaud that decision. We also were encouraged by both the additional project and the board’s growing impatience with the pace of progress in Parkside. Commissioner Tricia Duffy was especially concerned about the long timelines from commission approval of projects to their completion. We hope staff heard the message we did and that the board will continue to press for the swift completion of Parkside improvements. STILL RN `T Uf V 1TThEONLYW RE E HERE AT 4 AM.

The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net C Our Town Page 11 Expecting morally serious debate from any wouldbe Republican presidential contender is like waiting for a check from a deadbeat. It could ar rive someday, but don’t count on it. Yet listening to someone like Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., feign outrage over a real moral question can still be amusing, if you know enough about him to laugh. The Kentucky Republican has seized on stories about millions of dollars donated by Saudi Arabian agencies and interests to the Clinton Foundation, demanding that the Clintons return those funds because of gender inequality under the Saudi version of Islam. Speaking in New Hampshire, the senator said the Saudi monarchy is waging “a war on women,” turning a phrase often used to describe what Republican politicians do to women here. Like all aspiring leaders in the GOP, Paul wants to prove that he would be tough enough to take on Hillary Rodham Clinton in a national campaign. Women and men alike may admire her and hope that she will become America’s rst woman president — but how can she speak on behalf of women and girls if her husband’s foundation accepted support from the Saudis? Certainly it is true that the Saudi monarchy inicts special oppressions on its female subjects. But before examining how that should inuence the policies of a charitable foundation — and a former president or secretary of state — it is worth considering the feminist credentials of Rand Paul and his fellow Republicans. Presumably, Paul favors permitting women to drive and exercise other rights that they would be denied in Riyadh. But in his habitual hostility to any legislation improving the status of women in this country, he is all too typical of his party. He opposed the Paycheck Fairness Act, designed to ensure that women are paid equally to men for similar work, as an assault on the “free market” worthy of the “Soviet Politburo” (which somebody should tell him no longer exists). Like Senators Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham and other presidential hopefuls, he co-sponsored the Blunt Amendment, a mercifully defeated law that would have deprived millions of women of contraceptive and other vital insurance coverage at the whim of any employer. He sponsored a constitutional amendment to outlaw abortion and some forms of birth control. And he even opposed re-authorization of the Violence Against Women Act — a vote that the ultra-right Saudi imams would no doubt approve. If Paul wants to confront an enemy of women’s advancement, he need only glance in the mirror. As for the Clinton Foundation, leave aside the fact that the senator only knows about any Saudi donations because the foundation’s transparency exceeds anything required under U.S. law—and that the Carter Center, the Bush 41 and Bush 43 presidential libraries, Oxfam, and the World Health Organization, among many other charities, have also accepted Saudi funding. Paul and other critics ought to explain specically how the foundation’s receipt of support from Saudi Arabia has compromised its mission of empowering women and girls. Anyone who has attended the annual meetings of the Clinton Global Initiative, for instance, has seen and heard that commitment repeated again and again, around the world, in Muslim countries and everywhere else. The fact that economic and social development demand full gender equality has been the unmistakable message of those meetings, year after year, for more than a decade. And no Saudi ofcial who looked at the foundation’s programs in health, education or economic development could misunderstand what the Clintons and their foundation are saying and doing. To consider just one example: Over the past dozen years, the Clinton Health Access Initiative has helped to save millions of lives, including many women and girls suffering from HIV/ AIDS. In Ethiopia, the Saudi billionaire Sheikh Mohammed Al Amoudi donated funds to a local Clinton Foundation program providing AIDS drugs to infected men, women and children. Would it have been better to refuse the Saudi money, provide less medicine, and let some of those Ethiopians die? While Bill Clinton’s answer is plain enough, let’s not pretend such moral quandaries really trouble Rand Paul and his ilk. We already know that politicians like him are quite prepared to “let ’em die” here, as well as over there, because they are eager to repeal the Affordable Care Act, ruin Medicare and gut the Children’s Health Insurance Program. But it is a question for the rest of us to consider seriously. To nd out more about Joe Conason, visit the Creators Syndicate website at www.creators. com.Measuring the moral posture of Rand Paul Joe Conason I’m standing in the Starbucks line behind 10 other sleepyheads waiting to order my tall skinny cappuccino, otherwise known as a shot of coffee described as I wish to be. Absolutely no one is talking about race. In fact, no one is talking at all except to mumble an order while checking email. I confess I’m not usually here at this 8-ish hour but ventured out in a springtime snowstorm to investigate the current fuss over Starbucks’ suggestion that its baristas discuss race with patrons. Oh, you didn’t know there was a fuss at Starbucks about race? Why, then, you must be a normal human living a regular life away from the angst-inducing travails of urbanites who think nothing of spending $3.47 for a tiny jolt of java. Here’s the scoop for those who missed it. Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz is concerned about the seemingly growing racial divide in America and decided to use his considerable forum of 11,000 coffee shops to step up the conversation. His mantra is “Race Together,” which Schultz urged his baristas to write on coffee cups while chatting up customers about race problems. I’m not sure how this would go: “So, how long have you been a racist?” As long as we’re going there, why not a little banter about abortion? How about world hunger while you stuff yourself with a 460-calorie cranberry-orange scone? Want extra sugar in that salted caramel hot chocolate? Come to think of it, Starbucks would do the country a greater favor by cutting back on its sugars. Schultz isn’t new to corporate activism, but this time he seems aggressively out of touch with his target audience. Nobody wants to be lectured before her coffee; Starbucks denizens, who often are toting newspapers and laptops, don’t want to be lectured, period. Schultz is joined in his campaign by USA Today President and Publisher Larry Kramer. The two co-authored an op-ed, “Why Race Together? Because diversity matters,” and have pledged their resources to advance race relations. Despite their best efforts, the only sign of “Race Together” in my neighborhood Starbucks was a single inscribed cup by the register. A few dollar bills sticking out prompted me to tithe in hopes of purchasing an exemption or mercy, but it wasn’t necessary. The two baristas seemed in no mood to talk about race or anything else. (It’s a job, Howard, not a calling.) But the morning was young after all. Taking a seat and opening my laptop, I connected to the Starbucks Wi-Fi and quickly realized that by virtue of signing on, I had essentially joined the movement. The Wi-Fi network’s log-in screen urged me to follow links to USA Today, where I could read more about race and even take a test that would reveal my racial biases. Here I thought I was going to drink coffee, not engage my fellow humans, toss my empty cup in the appropriate recycling receptacle and bow out without actually genuflecting. Instead, by merely walking through the door, I had committed a revolutionary act. Of course, I took the test. Not to brag, but I scored perfectly — as far as it went. The link failed on question seven. But I did learn something: The fastest-growing group of immigrants to this country isn’t Hispanics but Asians. And most whites in the South have some percentage of African blood. Other race-related links were available, but I skipped them so I could meditate on my test results and consider how they might help reduce racial tensions in places like Ferguson, Mo., and New York City. I didn’t get far, probably because the music was too loud, but I began thinking that, oh well, there’s no harm in talking about race, especially when nobody’s really talking about it. Or is there? Last week, Starbucks’ senior vice president for global communications deleted his Twitter account after he was attacked by vicious tweeters about the race campaign. (I guess they didn’t want to talk, either.) In separate comments, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar warned that Starbucks’ race talk could escalate into violence. The latter seems unlikely. The latte and cappuccino set isn’t generally inclined to fisticuffs. Nor are they likely to be seduced (or enraged) by marketing posing as virtue. So what’s new? As for Schultz and Kramer, the proper place for a race debate is, indeed, in the op-ed section. As for Starbucks, sometimes a cup of coffee is just a cup of coffee. Actually, always.

Ted!” students yelled. “It is the time for truth. It is the time for liberty. It is the time to reclaim the Constitution of the United States,” Cruz said. Cruz’s speech had the feel of a sermon at a megachurch, with the candidate wearing a wireless microphone and walking around a stage while deliver ing his remarks. He discussed the humble background of his parents, how his wife is the daughter of missionaries and how he took out $100,000 in student loans that he only paid off a few years ago. He talked about the power of the American dream and harnessing the grassroots to propel his campaign forward. “I want to talk to you this morning about reigniting the promise of America,” he said.First out of the gateKATOE ZEZIMA and DAVID A.

The Kansas Wheat Commission is spending $200,000 for the rst two years of the project, which is meant to identify everything in wheat’s DNA sequences that can trigger a reaction in people suffering from celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder in which eating even tiny amounts of gluten — comprised of numerous, complex proteins that gives dough its elasticity and some avor to baked goods — can damage the small intestine. The only known treatment for it is a gluten-free diet, not eating foods that contain wheat, rye, and barley. Though celiac disease is four to ve times more common now than 50 years ago, only about 1 percent of the world’s population is believed to suffer from it, and just a fraction have been diagnosed. But the gluten-free food business has skyrocketed in the last ve years, driven in part by non-celiac sufferers who are either intolerant to gluten or following a gluten-free fad diet because they Farmers seek gluten-free wheatBy ROXANA HEGEMANASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERWHEAT | 4 WASHINGTON — In a dispute over a proposed Confederate battle ag license plate, the Supreme Court struggled Monday to balance worries about government censorship and concerns that offensive messages could, at worst, incite violence. Nearly 150 years after the end of the Civil War, the justices heard arguments in a case over Texas’ refusal to issue a license plate bearing the battle ag. Nine other states allow drivers to display plates with the ag, which remains both a potent image of heritage and a racially charged symbol of repression. Specialty license plates are big business in Texas. They brought in $17.6 million last year and state ofcials said there are now nearly 450 messages to choose from, from “Choose Life” to the Boy Scouts and hamburger chains. The state rarely rejects a specialty plate, but it did turn down a request by the Texas division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans for a license plate with its logo bearing the battle ag. The group’s lawsuit led to Monday’s hearing. The justices seemed uncomfortable with arguments advanced by both sides — the state in defense of its actions, and the Sons of Confederate Veterans in their appeal for the symbol.

He died days later. Years later, the Harvard Medical School researcher now tries to spur conversations about what care patients want during life’s nal chapter through videos that illustrate different options. “This is about patient empowerment,” said Volandes, who describes his program in a new book aptly titled “The Conversation.” Most Americans say they’d prefer to die at home, with treatment to free them from pain, but the prestigious Institute of Medicine says the reality too often is unwanted care and not enough comfort. One main reason: Doctors have a hard time discussing dying and patients don’t know what to ask. Now the institute is recommending changes in the health system to help patients — not doctors or circumstances — dictate their care, and it all starts with some straight talk. “These conversations should be part of a life cycle, not just at the end of life,” Doctors push straight talk on end-of-life careBy LAURAN NEERGAARDASSOCIATED PRESS WRITERCARE | 4 ,t?e r.'w.--r r !`' yam`,. ,/'tiWa ,r .0,7/ -r f } il1\aA "r t T t / qy frw: Y.

He pledged that his impoverished country will not remain a burden to the West. “We do not now ask what the United States can do for us,” Ashraf Ghani said in remarks meant to bolster the Obama administration’s conviction that Ghani is a reliable partner worth supporting over the long term. “We want to say what Afghanistan will do for itself and for the world,” he added. “And that means we are going to put our house in order.” ASHRAF GHANIPentagon notifying troops named by alleged IS hackersWASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon said Monday it is notifying 100 military members that their names and addresses were posted on the Internet by a group calling itself the Islamic State Hacking Division. The group said it was posting the information, including photos of the individuals, to encourage Muslims in the United States to kill the military members. A Pentagon spokesman, Col. Steve Warren, said there is no indication that the information was obtained through a government data breach. He said it could have been gathered from public records and by searching social media accounts. Service members have been reminded to heed normal security precautions, including password protection, in using social media, he said. Another defense ofcial said there is no indication yet of a specic security threat to any of the 100 individuals. Official: 3 dead in scaffolding collapseRALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A section of scaffolding collapsed at a high-rise construction project in downtown Raleigh, killing three people and sending another to a hospital, ofcials said Monday. Jeffrey Hammerstein, a district chief at Wake County EMS, said three people were conrmed dead in the accident at the glass and steel building called Charter Square, where scaffolding had peeled away from the exterior and fallen into a parking lot below. Authorities said they were working to identify those who died. The fourth worker was reported to have suffered serious injuries.Maine ski lift that malfunctioned had passed last inspectionPORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A chairlift that malfunctioned over the weekend at a Maine ski resort, injuring seven people, had just minor issues that were addressed after it was inspected last fall. The Board of Elevator and Tramway Safety required the replacement of a hydraulic pump, repair of the two-way voice communication system and servicing of an auxiliary power unit at Sugarloaf. All repairs were completed, and the lift passed inspection. On Saturday, the King Pine lift had a mechanical malfunction that caused the 27-year-old quad chairlift to begin moving backward. Sugarloaf ofcials say a preliminary investigation points to a malfunctioning gear box that disabled two brake systems. A lift attendant pulled an emergency brake to bring it to a halt after chairs slid about 450 feet in reverse.Utah to use firing squads if lethal drugs are unavailableSALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah became the only state to allow ring squads for executions when Gov. Gary Herbert signed a law Monday approving the method for use when no lethal injection drugs are available, even though he has called it “a little bit gruesome.” The Republican governor has said Utah is a capital punishment state and needs a backup execution method in case a shortage of the drugs persists. “We regret anyone ever commits the heinous crime of aggravated murder to merit the death penalty, and we prefer to use our primary method of lethal injection when such a sentence is issued,” Herbert spokesman Marty Carpenter said. However, enforcing death sentences is “the obligation of the executive branch.” The governor’s ofce, in a statement announcing the new law, noted that other states allow execution methods other than lethal injection. In Washington state, inmates can request hanging. In New Hampshire, hangings are fallback if lethal injections can’t be given. PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis. (AP) — Spring came falling down Monday on winter-weary residents in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa with more than a foot of new snow in some areas. Schools in southwestern Wisconsin and southeastern Minnesota canceled classes as snow plows hit the highways and streets and the locals red up their snow blowers or brought out their shovels for another round of snow. The National Weather Service measured 15 inches of snow in the Grant County, Wis., community of Fennimore and 13 inches in neighboring Crawford County. Decorah, Iowa, was dealing with 11 inches of snow, while 10 inches fell in Rochester, Minn. A sprinkling of snow disrupted rush hour trafc in Chicago. The accumulating snow stands in contrast to a week ago, when temperatures hit the 70s in some spots.Flowers and snowFlowers on Main in Zumbrota, Minn., where 12.3 inches of new snow was on the ground, received a shipment of spring owers Monday. “We just got in all of our Easter lilies and hy drangeas. It just doesn’t feel right,” employee Jan Ryan said with a chuckle. “We kind of feel like we’re in a ghost town today. It halts people walking around town. It just halts operations,” she said of the snowfall. She said last week was “gorgeous” in the upper 40s. “That’s just the nature of March,” Ryan said. “In like a lamb, out like a lion.”Believe the forecast:Customer trafc was minimal at the Hungry House restaurant in Prairie du Chien, where 13 inches of snow fell since Sunday. Manager Sam Etemi said he didn’t take much stock in the forecast, which predicted a mountain of new snow, until he woke up Monday morning. “I certainly wasn’t a believer until I stepped outside. I was just amazed and shocked.” Etemi said it was quite a contrast to the upper 40s and 50s of last week.Ill. governor’s motorcade in crashThe Illinois governor’s motorcade was among the vehicles involved in scores of accidents Monday as the early spring storm caused near white-out conditions and slippery roads in northern Illinois. Reports of crashes and spinouts started coming in after 5:30 a.m., a State Police spokesman said. Some caused minor injuries, including to a state trooper traveling in Rauner’s motorcade.Winter into overtime in Midwest AP PHOTOPedestrians walk the snow covered streets Monday, in Chicago. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — A ve-month police investigation into an alleged gang rape at the University of Virginia, described in graphic detail in a Rolling Stone article, produced no evidence of the attack and was stymied by the accuser’s unwillingness to cooperate, authorities said Monday. The article titled “A rape on campus” traced the story from a student identied only as “Jackie,” who said she was raped at a Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house on Sept., 28, 2012. It also described a hidden culture of sexual violence fueled by binge drinking at the college. Police said they found no evidence of that either. There were numerous discrepancies between the article and what they found, said Charlottesville Police Chief Timothy Longo, who was careful not to characterize Jackie’s account as a false allegation. The case is suspended, not closed, and the fact that investigators could not nd evidence years later “doesn’t mean that something terrible didn’t happen to Jackie,” Longo said. He appealed for anyone with information about the case or any sexual assault to come forward, and he even said Jackie may one day be in a place where she would be comfortable explaining what happened. “There’s a difference between a false allegation and something that happened that may have been different than what was described in that article,” Longo said. Asked if Jackie would be charged with making a false report, he said: “Absolutely not.” Accurate or not, the article heightened scrutiny of sexual assaults on college campuses. Even before it was published, the U.S. Education Department revealed a list of 55 colleges, including U.Va., under investigation for the way they handled sexual assault allegations. President Barak Obama’s administration launched a campaign to end campus sex assaults. Longo said Jackie rst described a sexual assault when she met with a dean in May 2013 about an academic issue, but “the sexual act was not consistent with what was described” in the Rolling Stone article. The dean brought in police, but Jackie didn’t want them to investigate and the case was dropped. After the article was printed in November, she met with police, this time with an attorney, and again refused to talk. Discrepancies in the article were soon found by news organizations. Rolling Stone printed an apology and asked the dean of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism to conduct a review of the article by Sabrina Rubin Erdely and its editorial process.

The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net WIRE Page 3 STATE NEWS TALLAHASSEE — As the House and Senate prepare to hammer out a $4.2 billion divide in budget proposals released last week, they have plenty of hometown pork to barter. Scattered throughout the 300-plus page documents from both chambers are local projects that lawmakers are trying to bring home to their districts. That could mean public dollars for an art, sports or youth program, agricultural or educational endeavor or for beach or road work. Among about 200 proposals are $1 million for industrial basin improvements at the Port of Panama City, $500,000 to help relocate the Miami International Boat Show to the Miami Marine Stadium, $250,000 for the Citrus County Marine Science Station, $250,000 to restore the St. Marks Lighthouse in Wakulla County, $250,000 for the Arcadia Rodeo and $50,000 for the Navy SEAL Museum in Fort Pierce. There is also $2.25 million for a parking structure for the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse, $1 million for the Circus Arts Conservatory in Sarasota, $724,000 for the St. Marks River Boardwalk, $150,000 for the Bay of Pigs Museum in Miami and $200,000 for the Southeast U.S./Japan Association and Florida/Korea Economic Cooperation Committee. In addition, there is $400,000 for a two-story house in Marion County where Arizona Donnie “Ma” Barker —the mother of members of the Depression-era Barker-Karpis Gang —was killed in a shootout with members of the FBI. Just being on the initial budget lists doesn’t ensure a project will make the nal cut. In many cases, only one chamber has put projects in their spending plans, which will be negotiated over the next six weeks. Also, the projects could be vetoed by Gov. Rick Scott. Last year, Scott slashed $68.9 million worth of pet projects from across the state while signing a record $77 billion spend ing plan into law. In 2013, Scott used his line-item veto power to cut $368 million from what had been a $74.5 billion budget. He cut $142.7 million from the spending plan in 2012, after nixing $615 million his rst year in ofce. For the 2015-2016 scal year, which begins July 1, a number of local projects have found similar funding in both chambers, such as $175,000 for the New Smyrna Beach Museum of East Coast Surng and $1 million for capital improvements to the Tampa Theatre. Also, the restoration of the William Weech American Legion Post in Key West is up for $154,000. But many other items backed by at least one local Senator or House member have yet to nd an agreed-upon price tag. For example, the House is putting up $1 million for the Field of Dreams, a sports facility in Melbourne for children and adults with disabilities. The Senate has countered with $200,000. The Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Franklin County is up for $650,000 by the House and $100,000 in the Senate. The USS Charles Adams Floating Museum, which is to be part of Jacksonville’s downtown waterfront, has a line item of $1 million in the House. The other chamber is at half that total. The House is at $155,000 for a grant to the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach, while the Senate line item stands at $1 million. Meanwhile, the Senate has posted $1 million for a youth soccer academy and training ground in Northeast Florida. The House is at $200,000 for the training facility. The House proposals give a little better idea of how some of the money could be spent from a vot er-approved constitutional amendment that requires setting aside funds for land and water projects. The money would ow through a trust fund. The House spreads $22.5 million for 19 beach renourishment projects from the fund, topped by $6 million at Navarre Beach, $3.16 million for south Siesta Key, $2.78 million in Broward County, $2 million for Brevard County, $1.7 million at central Boca Raton Beach and $1.5 million for Collier County. The House also would divide $591,300 from the trust fund for inlet management plans at Port Canaveral, Lake Worth and Boca Inlet.Hometown projects fill out legislative budget plans begins July 1, a number of both cham bers, such as $175,000 for the New Smyrna Beach | HEADLINE NEWS FROM AROUND THE STATEDespite decrease, Florida is No. 3 in foreclosuresORLANDO (AP) — Florida’s foreclosure activity has declined by more than a third from a year ago, but it still ranks as one of the highest in the nation. The research rm Realty Trac reported last week that Florida has one out of 570 homes with a foreclosure ling last February. That gure put Florida with the third-highest rate, only behind Maryland and Nevada. Florida’s foreclosure activity has declined by 35 percent in the past year.Are whites afraid to vote in Dunbar?FORT MYERS (NewsPress) — For decades, the railroad tracks in Fort Myers were the de facto color barrier: blacks on the east, whites on the west. In 1963, Fort Myers repealed mandated segregation between the area now known as Dunbar and the rest of the city. More than 50 years later, the railroad tracks again crossed into the public dialogue. While discussing the location of a voting place for a Ward 3 special election, a city councilwoman suggested it be moved. The reason: White people wouldn’t vote in Dunbar because they were scared. Seriously? How can these tracks still be relevant? How long will it take for our community to discard this token of segregation? Councilwoman Teresa Watkins Brown made the comments during a Feb. 17 meeting. “They think as soon as they cross over the tracks somebody is going to shoot ’em,” Watkins Brown said. “We need to move it into an area where everybody would feel comfortable to vote.” The special election, for which early voting started Monday, is being held to ll the Ward 3 seat left vacant by the resignation of Christine Matthews last year. Three candidates are vying for the spot: political newcomer Terolyn Watson; former restaurateur Mildred Barnes; and Levon Simms, who was defeated by Matthews in 2013 but was appointed to the seat after she resigned until an election could be held. The primary election is March 31. If no candidate receives more than 50 percent of the vote, a general election is May 19.Senate panel approves textbook tax breakTALLAHASSEE — A measure aimed at making college textbooks more affordable gained unanimous approval from a Senate committee Monday, but only after lawmakers stripped out one provision of the bill and a faculty representative pointed out potential problems with another. The legislation (SB 938) would eliminate the sales tax on textbooks and make other changes meant to hold down the costs of instructional materials. The bill, which is estimated to reduce state revenue by $33.9 million, is a priority for Gov. Rick Scott, who has made containing the cost of higher education one of the main goals of his administration.Democrat Murphy to run for U.S. SenateTALLAHASSEE (News Service of Florida) — Saying he is not a “career politician,’’ two-term Democratic Congressman Patrick Murphy announced Monday he will run in 2016 for the U.S. Senate seat held by Republican Marco Rubio. The announcement sets the stage for a big-money, high-prole Senate race next year — whether Rubio seeks re-election or decides instead to run for president. Murphy, 31, toppled Republican Congressman Allen West, a tea party favorite, in 2012 before easily defeating former state Rep. Carl Domino in 2014. Murphy’s campaign said Monday that he raised more than $11 million for the two campaigns, hinting at his ability to pull in the massive amounts of cash that would be needed to win a U.S. Senate seat.Zimmerman: A person in his circumstances can’t feel guiltyORLANDO (AP) — George Zimmerman says in a newly released video that a person in his circumstances can’t feel guilty over surviving a confrontation like the one he had with Trayvon Martin, the unarmed 17-year-old he shot and killed three years ago in Florida. He also criticizes President Barack Obama’s reaction to the case. In the video released Monday by his attorney, Zimmerman said he would feel guilty only if he thought he could have done something differently that would have saved both their lives. “Only in a true life-anddeath scenario can you have mental clearness to know that you cannot feel guilty for surviving,” Zimmerman said in the video. He also blamed President Barack Obama for stirring up racial divisiveness over Martin’s death. When asked by his attorney who brought “the highest level of unfairness” to his case, Zimmerman named Obama. After Martin’s death gained international attention, Obama said if he had a son, he would look like Martin. Zimmerman said those comments were racially charged. “To me that was clearly a dereliction of duty, pitting Americans against each other solely based on race,” Zimmerman said.Two S. Florida mail carriers robbedTAMARAC (AP) — Authorities are seeking the public’s help in nding two men suspected of robbing mail carriers in South Florida. The South Florida Sun Sentinel reports the men are being sought in connection with armed robberies that took place 20 minutes apart on March 13 in Tamarac and nearby Coral Springs. Postal inspectors are distributing sketches of the suspects. In the Coral Springs robbery, authorities say a vehicle key was stolen. A master key was taken in the other robbery. No further details were immediately available.

Today in history On March 24, 1765, Britain enacted the Quartering Act, requiring American colonists to provide temporary housing to British soldiers. On this dateIn 1832, a mob in Hiram, Ohio, attacked, tarred and feathered Mormon leaders Joseph Smith Jr. and Sidney Rigdon. In 1913, New York’s Palace Theatre, the legendary home of vaudeville, opened on Broadway. In 1934, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a bill granting future independence to the Philippines. In 1944, in occupied Rome, the Nazis executed more than 300 civilians in reprisal for an attack by Italian partisans the day before that had killed 32 German soldiers. In 1955, the Tennessee Williams play “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” opened on Broadway. In 1958, rock-and-roll singer Elvis Presley was inducted into the Army in Memphis, Tenn. In 1975, Muhammad Ali defeated Chuck Wepner with a technical knockout in the 15th round of a fight in Richfield, Ohio. (Wepner, a journeyman known as the “Bayonne Bleeder,” inspired Sly Stallone to make his “Rocky” films.) In 1976, the president of Argentina, Isabel Peron, was deposed by her country’s military. In 1980, one of El Salvador’s most respected Roman Catholic Church leaders, Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero, was shot to death by a sniper as he celebrated Mass in San Salvador. In 1989, the supertanker Exxon Valdez ran aground on a reef in Alaska’s Prince William Sound and began leaking an estimated 11 million gallons of crude oil. In 1995, after 20 years, British soldiers stopped routine patrols in Belfast, Northern Ireland. In 1999, NATO launched airstrikes against Yugoslavia, marking the first time in its 50-year existence that it had ever attacked a sovereign country. Thirty-nine people were killed when fire erupted in the Mont Blanc tunnel in France and burned for two days. Ten years ago: The U.S. Supreme Court denied an appeal from the parents of Terri Schiavo to have a feeding tube reinserted into the severely brain-damaged woman. Chess legend Bobby Fischer was freed after being detained nine months in Japan for trying to leave the country with an invalid U.S. passport; he boarded a flight to his new home, Iceland. Today’s birthdays Poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti is 96. Actor William Smith is 82. Fashion and costume designer Bob Mackie is 76. Actor R. Lee Ermey is 71. Movie director Curtis Hanson is 70. Former Washington Gov. Christine Gregoire is 68. Rock musician Lee Oskar is 67. Singer Nick Lowe is 66. Rock musician Dougie Thomson (Supertramp) is 64. Fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger is 64.

Neo-soul musician Jesse Phillips (St. Paul & the Broken Bones) is 35. Actress Keisha Castle-Hughes is 25. said Dr. Philip Pizzo of Stanford University, who co-chaired the institute’s panel that is holding meetings on how to implement the recommendations. “Regardless of whether an individual is choosing more or less, both ends of that spectrum are important and we should honor preferences.” Already some programs are underway to jumpstart the discussions. VitalTalk trains doctors for emotional conver sations such as whether it’s time to stop cancer chemotherapy, and how to ask what patients value most for their remaining time. “Doctors know what they should do, they just don’t know how to do it effectively,” said VitalTalk co-developer Dr. Anthony Back, a University of Washington oncologist. And health facilities can license Volandes’ videos to show families what options ranging from CPR to feeding tubes to hospice involve, before they talk with the doctor. For example, one video explains that if CPR is attempted, you also may be put on a ventilator — a tube down your throat that pushes air into your lungs, preventing eating or talking. In a matterof-fact manner, it shows health workers inserting that tube in a mannequin and, briey, a real patient lying sedated and intubated. In carefully controlled studies, Volandes found patients were less likely to opt for aggressive end-oflife care after seeing the videos than if someone just described their choices. About 200 hospitals and other health facilities around the country use the videos. The biggest real-world test is going on now in Hawaii: The state’s largest insurer has licensed the videos for use in every hospital, and in other health facilities including primary care ofces. Researchers are tracking the impact. “If one of our members makes a conscious decision that, ‘I want to ght until my last dying breath,’ we’re supportive of that,” said Hilton Raethel, chief health ofcer of HMSA, the notfor-prot Hawaii Medical Service Association. “But we want that to be a choice you make as opposed to, it’s something that’s imposed on you.” These decisions are much more complicated than a checklist, said Dr. Diane Meier, an Institute of Medicine panelist and director of the Center to Advance Palliative Care at New York’s Mount Sinai Medical Center. Conversations are critical because of the “it depends” factor. Maybe you’re sure you won’t want to be on a ventilator once your cancer becomes advanced. But say you catch a treatable pneumonia in the meantime. Would a few days on a ventilator be worth it then? “Advance care planning is a process and people change their minds all the time,” Meier said. “Those nuances are very customized, patient-specic.” Yet few medical schools train doctors in them. “The tendency of all health professionals, including me, is to just keep talking” when delivering bad news, said VitalTalk’s Back, who calls it “explain-aholic syndrome.”CAREFROM PAGE 1 AP PHOTOIn this photo taken Feb. 23, Dr. Angelo Volandes lms a patient at Straub Clinic and Hospital in Honolulu, for videos he develops that educate families about end-of-life care options, such as CPR. swastika, the word “jihad,” and a call to make marijuana legal? Yes, lawyer R. James George Jr., a law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall 45 years ago, responded each time on behalf of the veterans group. “That’s okay? And ‘Bong hits for Jesus?’” Ginsburg said, reaching back to an earlier case involving students’ speech rights. Again, George said yes, and remained rm even when Justice Elena Kagan added in “the most offensive racial epithet you can imagine.” He told the justices that “speech that we hate is something that we should be proud of protecting.” The result of such a ruling, Justice Anthony Kennedy said, probably would be the end of the state’s program of allowing many specialized license plates, and a loss of free speech. “If you prevail, it’s going to prevent a lot of Texans from conveying a message,” Kennedy said. More skeptical about the state’s argument, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito said the sheer number of messages and their wide range show that the state’s only interest is nancial. “They’re only doing this to get the money,” Roberts said. “Texas will put its name on anything.” Texas Solicitor General Scott Keller said the state makes the plates and owns them. “Texas has its name on every license plate,” Keller said. Car owners remain free to express any message they wish by attaching bumper stickers or painting their cars, he said. Keller urged the court not to force Texas to recognize offensive speech. “Texas should not have to allow speech about al-Qaida or the Nazi party simply because it offers a license plate propagating the message ‘Fight Terrorism,’” Keller said. But Roberts was unpersuaded by that argument. “If you don’t want to have the al-Qaida license plate, don’t get into the business of allowing people to buy the space to put on whatever they want to say,” the chief justice said. Texas commemorates the Confederacy in many ways. The battle ag is etched on a century-old Civil War monument on the grounds of the state Capitol in Austin. The First Amendment dispute has brought together some unlikely allies, including the American Civil Liberties Union, anti-abortion groups, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, civil libertarian Nat Hentoff and conservative satirist P.J. O’Rourke. “In a free society, offensive speech should not just be tolerated, its regular presence should be celebrated as a symbol of democratic health — however onerous the products of a democracy may be,” Hentoff, O’Rourke and others said in a brief backing the group.PLATESFROM PAGE 1 believe it may help them lose weight or that it’s somehow healthier. Sales of gluten-free snacks, crackers, pasta, bread and other products reached $973 million in the U.S. in 2014, up from $810 million the previous year, according to a January report by consumer research rm Packaged Facts, which analyzed the sales of hundreds of explicitly labeled and marketed gluten-free products and brands at supermarkets, drugstores, and mass merchandisers. Supporters of the Kansas research, though, say this isn’t a way to regain market share. “If you know you are producing a crop that is not tolerated well by people, then it’s the right thing to do,” according to the project’s lead researcher, Chris Miller, senior director of research for Engrain, a Kansas company that makes products to enhance the nutrition and appearance of products made by the milling and cereal industry. Gluten-free foods are a niche product, and in the broader context of the world’s wheat markets, it is not a driving factor, according to Dan O’Brien, extension grain market specialist at Kansas State University. “I anticipate it will develop as a specialty market,” he said. The research, which began in July at the Wheat Innovation Center in Manhattan, Kan., is still in its early stages, with researchers extracting proteins from seeds of various varieties of wheat. Miller has yet to begin work combining the proteins with antibodies produced by the human immune system to test for reactions. He also plans to examine the wild relatives of wheat as well as modern varieties, and will tap into a Kansas wheat variety repository that dates back to the 1900s in hopes of nding a variety — per haps one that fell out of favor among commercial farmers — that might already be low in reactivity for celiac sufferers. Researchers hope to use that variety to develop a gluten-free wheat using traditional breeding methods. Miller’s methodology might be “too simplistic an approach” that wouldn’t identify all the toxic sequences that trigger a celiac reaction, according to Armin Alaedini, assistant professor of medical sciences at Columbia University and a researcher at the New York-based school’s Celiac Disease Center. Alaedini, after looking at Miller’s plan online, said the project may end up with a less toxic wheat product that isn’t completely safe for all celiac disease patients. WHEATFROM PAGE 1The speech embraced the goals of Christian social conservatives, military hawks and small-government tea partiers and illustrated the broad Republican coalition he is hoping to assemble. The location of the announcement, at an evangelical college, showed that Cruz hopes to mobilize young people behind a campaign that will start at the back of the GOP pack — but a po sition advisers said they feel good about because they can build upon by aggressively courting the conservative base. An adviser to Cruz said the speech was meant to highlight the optimistic side of Cruz, which often gets lost amid his reputation as a Senate bomb-thrower. It’s an approach that Cruz will continue on the campaign trail as he looks to accentuate a positive message of moving America forward and uniting conservatives behind his campaign. At the same time he will continue to position himself as someone who has, and is willing to, take on both parties and is uncompromising in his beliefs. Cruz has called for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act and the abolition of Common Core education standards, and has been skeptical of climate change. Cruz had technically already announced his candidacy with a tweet sent early Monday morning, part of a targeted multi-day rollout by the campaign. They had considered announcing online only. Cruz decided about a month ago to declare here at Liberty, underscoring that he has been assiduously courting evangelicals, young people and conservatives who are frustrated with Republicans in Washington. “I’m running for president, and I hope to earn your support!” he wrote just after midnight. That made Cruz, who has been in the Senate since 2013, the rst major presidential contender to formally declare himself a 2016 candidate. It followed several months of fervent — but entirely unofcial — jockeying by Cruz and a large eld of other Republican hopefuls.GATEFROM PAGE 1TALLAHASSEE — A Florida Senate panel on Monday approved what backers call a “school safety” bill that would allow school superintendents to tap employees or volunteers to carry concealed weapons on school property. The measure (SB 180) passed the Senate Criminal Justice Committee on a par ty-line vote of 3-2 — the rst Senate committee to approve the bill this year. Committee Chairman Greg Evers, R-Baker, is sponsoring the bill. This is the third year the proposal has surfaced, and the House version, HB 19 by Rep. Greg Steube, R-Sarasota, has already been approved by two committees. Under the proposal, only people with law enforcement or military experience, in good standing, could qualify to become armed school security. They would also be required to hold concealed-weapons permits, pass background checks and go through a training program created by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Several educators, however, spoke against the measure. “We’re just opposed to the idea that having more guns is a good idea for safety,” Barbara Holley, a retired elementary school principal, told the Senate committee. “There’s no evidence that having more guns around children will make children safer.” Barbara KirbyBentley, a teacher with the Seminole County School Board, contended that guns are not safe in a school environment. “You read every day about children attacking teachers in the classroom,” she said. “You read every day about students attacking law enforcement or some other adult who has authority over them. Just think of the anger they’re showing now — and if you put guns on campus, there’s another opportunity for the loss of life.” Democrats on the panel objected as well. “In my county, Palm Beach County, we pay to have full-time school police ofcers,” Sen. Jeff Clemens, D-Lake Worth. “If we’re going to do this, we should do it the right way and that’s to hire — and the state should pay for — school police ofcers to be in the school full time.” Clemens said he thought Steube was trying to do the right thing, “but I’m still not all the way there yet.” But Steube, who presented the bill to the Senate panel, pointed to part of the bill that would require school boards to consult with law enforcement to come up with policies and procedures for dealing with active shooters, hostage situations “and anything else that (the Florida Department of Law Enforcement) thinks is appropriate.” “Right now that course doesn’t even exist,” Steube said.Florida school gun bill gets OK from panelBy MARGIE MENZELNEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA Board, contended opportunity for the loss of life.” well. county, Palm Beach County, we pay to have full-time FEIRIDAEEQISTEATIVESESSION201I47

The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net WIRE Page 5 WORLD NEWS | BRIEFS FROM AROUND THE WORLDYemen FM: President Hadi calls for Gulf military, UN actionSANAA, Yemen (AP) — Yemen’s embattled President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi has asked Gulf countries to inter vene militarily against Shiite rebels who have seized the capital and are advancing toward his new base in the south, his foreign minister told Saudi media Monday. Riad Yassin said Hadi has also asked the United Nations to impose a noy zone so that the rebels, known as Houthis, cannot use the airports they seized. He accused the rebels of being a proxy of Shiite Iran, charges they deny. Yassin spoke to Saudiowned Al-Hadath TV on Monday. He made similar comments to the Saudiowned Asharq al-Awsat newspaper.Israel’s Netanyahu apologizes to country’s ArabsJERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has apologized to Israel’s Arab citizens for remarks he made during last week’s parliament election and which offended members of the community. Netanyahu, whose Likud Party won re-election in the vote, met with members of the Arab community at the prime minister’s residence in Jerusalem on Monday and apologized. He says he knows his “comments last week offended some Israeli citizens and offended members of the IsraeliArab community.” Netanyahu says: “This was never my intent. I apologize for this.” Netanyahu drew accusations of racism in Israel, especially from its Arab minority, and a White House rebuke when, just a few hours before polling stations were to close across the country, he warned that Arab citizens were voting “in droves.”Experts warn African elephant numbers likely to declineJOHANNESBURG (AP) — A high rate of elephant poaching in parts of Africa was unchanged in 2014 compared to the previous year, meaning that a continued decline in elephant numbers is likely, according to a study released Monday at a conservation meeting in Botswana. A report by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, which is known as CITES and regulates wildlife trade, said poaching rates of elephants in areas that are being monitored still exceed their natural birth rates. Conservationists say tens of thousands of elephants have been killed in Africa in recent years as demand for ivory in Asia, particularly China, increases. Past estimates of Africa’s elephant population have ranged from 420,000 to 650,000.Syrian rebels shell city of Aleppo, killing at least 13DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Syrian rebels red mortar rounds into government-held parts of the northern city of Aleppo during rush hour Monday, killing 13 people and wounding dozens, state-run TV and an activist group said. The violence was the latest in the are-up in Aleppo, Syria’s largest city and once its commercial hub. Last month, Syrian troops and pro-government militias launched an offensive in an attempt to besiege rebel-held parts of the city and since then, intense ghting has been taking place on the city’s outskirts.Israel seeks an ally in France to oppose Iran dealPARIS (AP) — Unable to nd support from its U.S. allies, Israel is turning to France to help head off what it sees as a bad and dangerous nuclear deal with Iran. In an interview with The Associated Press in Paris, Israeli Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz said Monday that dialogue with France over Iran’s nuclear program “has proven in the past that it was productive” and makes this week’s last-minute diplomatic mission to Paris worthwhile. France played a key role strengthening an interim agreement with Iran in late 2013 that froze key parts of the Islamic republic’s nuclear program in exchange for some relief from Western sanctions. The so-called P5+1 group — Britain, China, France, Russia the United States and Germany — is attempting to reach a nal nuclear deal with Iran before a deadline expires at the end of the month.Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan sign accord over Nile KHARTOUM, Sudan (AP) — Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan on Monday signed an initial agreement on sharing water from the Nile River that runs through the three countries, as Addis Ababa presses ahead with its construction of a massive new dam it hopes will help alleviate the country’s power shortages. The dam has been a possible issue of contention among the three nations, threatening to reduce Egypt’s share of the Nile and challenging a colonial-era agreement that had given the rights to exploit the river’s water just to Egypt and Sudan. But on Monday, leaders of the three nations — Egyptian President AbdelFattah el-Sissi, Sudanese President Omar Bashir and Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn — welcomed the agreement in speeches in Khartoum’s Republican Palace.Iraq officials: Baghdad bombs kill 19; wound 36BAGHDAD (AP) — Multiple bombings in the Iraqi capital killed at least 19 people and wounded 36, as Iraqi forces continued preparing for a large-scale operation to recapture the city of Tikrit from the Islamic State group. The deadliest bombing struck a busy commer cial street Monday in the Habibiya section of Baghdad’s Sadr City, killing at least nine people and wounding 22, ofcials said. Another bombing, at a vegetable market in the Tarabya section of Baghdad, killed at least six people and wounded 14. Earlier Monday in northwestern Baghdad, police say a bomb detonated near an intelligence branch of the Interior Ministry, killing four people — a couple and their two children. KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Hundreds marched Monday in the Afghan cap ital, demanding justice for a woman beaten to death last week by a Kabul mob over false allegations she had burned a Quran — a vicious killing that shocked many Afghans and renewed calls for authorities to ensure women’s rights to equality and protection from violence. The killing has also drawn condemnation from Afghanistan’s President Ashraf Ghani, now in Washington on his rst state visit to the United States since taking ofce in September, who denounced it as a “heinous attack” and ordered an investigation. On Thursday, a mob of men beat a 27-year-old religious scholar named Farkhunda to death, threw her body off a roof, ran over it with a car, set it on re and at the end, threw it into the Kabul River near one of the Afghan capital’s most renowned mosques, the Shah Doshamshera. The attack was captured by cellphone cameras and has been widely distributed on social media. Farkhunda, who like many Afghans had just one name, was buried amid a huge public outcry on Sunday, her cofn carried by women’s activists who deed the tradition of men-only pallbearers and funerals. Protesters who gathered near the Shah Doshamshera mosque on Monday demanded the government prosecute all those responsible for the death. Kabul’s police chief Abdul Rahman Rahimi said 18 people had been arrested and all had confessed to their role in Farkhunda’s death. “We have enough evidence” against the suspects, he announced at a press conference as the 18 were brought out before the media. He said 13 policemen based in the area of the mosque had been suspended amid allegations they stood by and did nothing to stop the attack, and another four were under investigation. One of the policemen who witnessed the attack, Sayed Habid Shah, said they were overwhelmed by the size of the crowd, which grew throughout the assault. It all started when Farkhunda and a fortune teller at a small shrine next to the mosque began arguing and the fortune teller accused her of burning the Quran, Shah said. “She said, ‘I am a Muslim and Muslims do not burn the Quran,’” Shah, who has not been suspended, told The Associated Press. “As more people gathered, the police were trying to push them away, but it got out of control.”Afghan protesters demand justice for woman killed by mob AP PHOTOArrested suspects of the woman beaten to death last week, stand to be photographed by the media, during a press confer ence, in Kabul, Afghanistan, Monday. MILAN (AP) — Italy’s highest court this week takes up the Amanda Knox case for the second time as a parallel trialby-social media rages online, with partisans on both sides seeking to shape public opinion over a murder case that has polarized observers in three nations. While the Internet advocacy and sparring over the Knox trial details — on blogs, forums and most vociferously on Twitter — have no bearing on the real court case, observers and participants say it does have a role in shaping public opinion, particularly in the United States, where the exchanges are most acerbic. And public opinion could eventually have some bearing, if a conrmed guilty verdict requires Knox to serve a sentence and Italy seeks to extradite her. “This has become their life, and both sides are desperate to win any way they can. Even if that is in the court of public opinion, they will take that win,” said Laurie Levenson, a law professor who directs the center for legal advocacy at Loyola Law School. ‘’Everyone has woken up and realized that the law is not etched in stone. It is in the eye of the beholder and they are trying to inuence that.” The Italian Court of Cassation on Wednesday is expected to rule on Knox’s and her former Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito’s appeals to their guilty verdicts in British student Meredith Kercher’s 2007 killing.Knox, ex-boyfriend face trial by social media adno=50479092 s1I al"IMAw -S . .S,kVE.

My portfolio improved by 32 percent and ended the year with a value of $388,000. Everything I picked went up except my December 2013 purchase of Twitter at $72. In 2014, I bought Face book, Baidu, Google, Netix, Apple and Fleetcorp, and all of them increased in value very nicely. Please give me your opinion of Twitter stock. Do you think it can get back to the $70 level? — JS, Oklahoma City Dear JS: Twitter (TWTR$47) provides a platform for people to express themselves in real time on the Internet. Twitter serves the lonely, the intellectually handicapped, people who are attention-starved, people who thrive in various levels of voyeurism and users who were not breastfed as babies. And these are the people who become emotional and teary-eyed following the personal tweets of Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, LeBron James, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Justin Bieber and hundreds of other celebrities. This TWTR thing came public with 70 million shares in early November 2013 at $26. It had zero earnings but rose to $44 the same day. By Christmas of 2013, shareholders were as happy as pigs on ice; TWTR had risen to $75, and there were 637 million shares outstanding, worth $48 billion. The company was worth more than KimberlyClark, Tupperware and Wendy’s combined. How in the name of all things holy and reasonable can a company with no earnings on the horizon and $1.3 billion in revenues enjoy a market value of that magnitude? Some think it will be snowing in Miami and raining in the Gobi before TWTR returns to your break-even price. Oppenheimer, Argus Research, UBS, RBC Capital Markets and Pivotal Research have “buy” recommendations on TWTR. And the consensus of the 35 analysts who follow the stock is that it could trade between $28 and $60 in the coming 12 to 18 months. Several brokerages following TWTR recognize that in the past 12 months, the number of average monthly users has increased by 23 percent. These are the geniuses who think TWTR could run to $60 in the coming year. However, others believe that TWTR’s growth is maturing and note that its current monthly active user audience is modestly lower than its several previous quarters. This group of geniuses believes that TWTR could fall to $28. Meanwhile, TWTR’s advertising revenue last year grew by 11 percent, and revenue per user is experiencing strong growth, surpassing other social networking companies, such as Facebook and LinkedIn. That’s impressive. Management recently inked a deal with the National Football League to distribute proprietary content to TWTR users. And that’s impressive, too. The NFL contract could be a game-changing agreement that has numerous pluses for advertising growth. TWTR also has an impressive user base (nearly 300 million), which continues to grow. And this growing user base is quite meaningful for future earnings. TWTR has certainly captured the attention and budgets of a growing number of advertisers. Because the TWTR platform is purely social, because it reinforces the user’s desire to share and react to information in real time, and because it is the largest “real-time” social network in the world, advertising revenues for 2015 may nearly double again, to $2.45 billion. JS, I’m not comfortable recommending a company that doesn’t have foreseeable earnings — especially a social networking company that depends on addictive, lonely, emotionally starved users and risibly impressionable, immature people to attract adver tising dollars. But TWTR’s advertisers recognize that these screwballs reproduce, that they eventually morph into families and households and buy stuff. These advertisers recognize that this susceptive, callow and expanding commonage is composed of ideal buyers for the products they sell. I have no idea when TWTR will report a prot, though some suggest earnings of 45 cents by 2019. But recognizing the increasingly speculative mindset of hedge fund managers and their sorry ilk, I think TWTR could trade in the low $60s late this year or next. So purchase 100 shares at today’s price, and then wait 31 days and take a tax loss on the TWTR you bought at $72. Then sell the 100 shares if TWTR moves over $60. Email Malcolm Berko at mjberko@yahoo.com.Twitter stock Malcolm Berko NEW YORK (AP) — A late turn pulled the stock market to a loss on Monday, as major indexes wavered following a strong run last week. Kansas City Southern slumped 8 percent, the biggest fall in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, after the railroad operator trimmed its revenue estimates, pointing to falling fuel prices and the strengthening dollar. Its stock lost $9.21 to $106.48. Major indexes started higher in morning trading, settled into an afternoon lull, then dipped down in the last 10 minutes of trading. The S&P 500 fell 3.68 points, or 0.2 percent, to close at 2,104.42. The Dow Jones industrial average lost 11.61 points, or 0.1 percent, to 18,116.04 while the Nasdaq composite slipped 15.44 points, or 0.3 percent, to 5,010.97. Traders kept tabs on a meeting in Europe between the leaders of Greece and Germany for signs of progress in Greece’s debt negotiations. Greece faces a cash crunch in the coming weeks and is in talks with its European lenders on what steps it must take to receive more loans. Greece’s Prime Minister, Alexis Tsipras, committed to keeping a dialogue open on reforms that would qualify Greece for urgently needed rescue loans. Brad McMillan, chief investment ofcer at Commonwealth Financial, said he expects the market to head higher over the coming months because there appears to be nothing on the horizon capable of knocking it off course. Investors have pushed the S&P 500 to all-time highs despite concerns over Europe’s sluggish economy and slumping oil prices. “Greece hasn’t pulled it down, deation hasn’t pulled it down,” McMillan said. “Unless the Federal Reserve says it’s going to raise interest rates in June, I just can’t see what’s going to pull it down.”Stock market starts the week with a small loss NEW YORK (AP) — Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer says he expects the Fed to start raising interest rates sometime this year. Once that happens, though, rates won’t likely move in any predictable pattern, he added. Fischer’s remarks Monday built on a message the Fed sent last week after its latest policy meeting ended. The central bank opened the door to a rate increase by no longer saying it would be “patient” in starting to raise rates. That change was viewed as a sign that the Fed could raise rates as early as June. At the same time, the Fed signaled that it was in no hurry: It noted that it needed to see the job market improve further and for ination to rise above extremely low levels. Many economists interpreted that to mean a rate increase was more likely later in the year at the earliest. The Fed has kept its key short-term rate near zero since 2008 to try to bolster the economy after a devastating nancial crisis and recession. “An increase in the tar get federal funds range likely will be warranted before the end of the year,” Fischer said in a speech to the Economic Club of New York. Employers have added 200,000-plus jobs each month for the past year. Unemployment is at a seven-year low of 5.5 percent. But ination hovers well below the Fed’s 2 percent target. Fischer reiterated that the Fed wants to be “reasonably condent that ination will move back to our 2 percent objective over the medium term.” He also stressed the importance of looking beyond when the Fed begins raising rates. After its first increase, the Fed may adjust its key rate either up or down, depending on the economy’s perfor mance, the vice chair man said.Fed Vice Chair Fischer: Rate hike is likely this year Ll0 0

The truce announced in mid-February has never taken here, so traveling by the main roads is too dangerous. Government and Russian-backed separatist forces face off in daily gun and artillery battles across an unseen line cutting through the town. The skirmishes are erce, but contained — for now. Still, the enduring unrest arouses deep anxieties that a conict which has already claimed more than 6,000 lives in eastern Ukraine could are up again across the entire 450-kilometer (280-mile) front line. Shyrokyne itself is not much of a prize. It is the industrial port city of Mariupol, 10 kilometers (6 miles) farther west, that Ukrainian forces want to defend from the rebels at all costs. Residents and government troops alike believe the separatists’ ultimate aim is to take Mariupol — and eventually create a land bridge between Russia and Crimea, which Russia annexed last March. Crimea has no physical link to Russian territory now and a bridge being discussed is years away from completion. Government forces in Shyrokyne are only truly at ease behind three defensive lines separating them from the heat of ghting in the center. At a makeshift garrison installed there, on the grounds of a restaurant near the shore, two tanks stood parked Sunday under a striped awning. Several hundred meters away, mortar shells landing in the sea sprayed up columns of water. “They are hurling anti-tank shells at the lighthouse. Another one just came this way,” said a bearded, barrel-chested ghter with the government’s Azov Battalion who gave only his nom de guerre, Al. As reports came that two enemy tanks had been spotted, Al’s thoughts turned to the combat ahead. “It is all about to start,” he said. To proceed closer to the area where the battle is ercest, soldiers abandon their cars and race on foot toward a school, climbing through a hole in the fence. The asphalt on the road had been torn up by explosives, so only armored vehicles could get through with ease. The responsibility for defending Shyrokyne is shared between the Azov and Donbass battalions, who take weekly turns to serve in the town. Coordination is sometimes poor, however. As Azov troops jogged for cover behind the school Sunday, one soldier shouted: “What are you doing? Are you crazy running like that? There are booby traps there.” Another soldier corrected him. “Nah, the booby traps are over there,” he said, waving his hand vaguely to the left. “The Donbass guys put them there.” Inside the school, children’s drawings still decorated the walls. One man fried sausages and another chowed down on boiled oats as a mobile phone blared out music by a Russian death metal band. Underfoot, amid the spent bullet cartridges and shrapnel, students’ art collages lay covered in fallen plaster. As the sound of mortars grew more intense, all the men ducked inside for cover. “There they go, they’ve started again,” said an Azov spotter with the nickname Mathematician.Clashes rage in Ukrainian town, amid ‘truce’ AP PHOTOFighters of the Azov Battalion cook during a break in the town of Shyrokyne, eastern Ukraine, Sunday.

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — A cow in Northeast Texas has apparently deed great odds and given birth to four calves that have been named Eeny, Meeny, Miny and Moo. Jimmy Barling said Monday that DNA tests will be done on tissue sam ples from the three bull calves and the one heifer calf to satisfy those who may question the births from one mother. “We knew she was pregnant, but we didn’t know she was going to do this,” the 76-year-old Barling said. “This was a shock. This blew our minds.” Barling’s wife, Dora Rumsey-Barling, owns the couple’s 20 or so cattle outside of DeKalb, near the Arkansas and Oklahoma borders. Rumsey-Barling’s granddaughter named the four black calves Eeny, Meeny, Miny and Moo, Barling said. Local veterinarian Mike Baird called the March 16 births “extremely rare.” He said the odds of four live births from one cow are 1 in 11.2 million. Baird knows the couple well and is nearly certain the four came from one mother, rather than a nearby cow perhaps birthing one or two and then moving along so that it appeared the four came from the Barling’s cow. “In the interest of science and the animal world, it’s one of those things that need to be veried beyond a shadow of a doubt,” he said. The couple watched the birth of the fourth calf after going to check on her when they saw buzzards circling above a eld. Because the mother cow is unable to nurse all four calves, the couple are relying on neighbors to help. Moo has stayed with her mother, while Eeny, Meeny and Miny are with two different caretakers. Meeny is the smallest of the calves, weighing in at about 25 pounds.Cow in Texas gives birth to 4 calves 24 W17, 04 WP6ONLYFiD 6W45 ,Wnnipag Q / "'0 l .+4y J 64/35 60/41. ,... t .. ,.-.IWashingtonI5,+. , ,"'"+5 o : Los Angalas9 ;; 9 ; 74/s9s Ell Pawl AdaAnbt 70/W Q b .

TALLAHASSEE — Florida State was too big, too fast and too deep for Florida Gulf Coast. The Seminoles jumped to a 17-2 lead in the opening 4:12 and never looked back on their way to a 65-47 victory and a spot in the Sweet 16. “They blitzed us pretty good at the beginning,” FGCU coach Karl Smesko said. “There are times when I see Florida State where they are the second-best team in the country. There were parts of today’s game where they were playing at about that level.” The usually high-scor ing Eagles were held to their fewest points of the season and outrebounded 46-23, suffering their rst loss in 27 games. “Our speed was the difference with our length,” Florida State Seminoles blitz, bounce Eagles WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL: Florida State 65, Florida Gulf Coast 47Florida State holds FGCU to season low point totalBy BRENT KALLESTADASSOCIATED PRESSFGCU | 3 INSIDEMaryland women end Princeton’s perfect run, Page 3 Xavier men are making the Sweet 16 look routine, Page 3 PORT CHARLOTTE — Tampa Bay’s middle ineld briey looked set Monday morning.

But that plan didn’t survive the day intact.

At least for this year. No NFL games will be blocked from local television next season, the league said Monday at the owners’ meetings. The teams voted for a oneyear suspension of the long-standing blackout policy for the preseason and regular season. There were no blackouts last season, because the minimum number of tickets was sold for every game, and the league had only two blackouts in 2013. Still, the experiment is a huge step for the NFL, whose blackout policy dates back decades. In the 1970s, half of NFL games were blocked from local TV because the games did not sell enough tickets. Some teams — Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville, Oakland, St. Louis and San Diego — have struggled to avoid blackouts, and the league is taking a bit of a gamble for 2015. The policy stipulates that a home game must be sold out 72 hours in advance of kickoff in order to be televised locally. Often, that deadline is extended to ensure sellouts if a club believes it can meet the criteria for lifting the blackout. The league’s denition of a full house is not selling every seat but a large percentage of them, NFL: Television BLACKOUTSThe number of blackouts per season since 2011.

Cabral was making her rst start after losing the starter’s role early in the season because of control issues.PUNTA GORDA — After being taken out of the rotation early in the season, Haley Cabral wasn’t about to throw away her shot at redemption. The freshman pitcher made the most of the second chance, throwing a one-hitter and getting stronger as the game progressed as Charlotte High School pulled away against Port Charlotte to win 13-1 in a game stopped in the bottom of the sixth inning by the mercy rule. Cabral went the distance, allowing one run on one hit. She walked two, hit a batter and struck out ve, including two with the bases loaded. Cabral started early in the season, but wildness sent her to the bench. While such a setback might discourage a young player, Cabral realized she needed to work her way back. “Julie Dedrick was doing much better than me, so I pushed myself a lot more to get better than where I was,” Cabral said. “My changeup has really worked for me and my defense helped pick me up.” Given another oppor tunity, Charlotte coach Gregg Higgins gave her some words of wisdom. “I told her to go out and throw strikes because it was the walks that were going to hurt her,” Higgins said. “Tonight her form was back.” Cabral changed speeds A second chanceBy CHUCK BALLAROSUN CORRESPONDENT PREP SOFTBALL: Charlotte 13, Port Charlotte 1Cabral tosses one-hitter in spot start UP NEXTCharlotte: at Lemon Bay, Wednesday, 7 p.m. Port Charlotte: vs. Booker, Friday, 6 p.m.CABRAL | 6 ` gyp, r-~'_ .sw,.c.,+ so v --a, +s : `ei^` r ,:++i,-.: ;' 'il v--.'1:, y". rte.e, 5.'

The Englewood resident started running about ve years ago. She was competing in half marathons early on but said, “It was starting to take a toll on my body.” The 38-year-old mother, who was a multisport athlete for Port Charlotte High School, said she experienced hip and groin pains. So she cut back on training — from 18 to 25 miles per week to 10 to 15 — and race distances. “I just needed some rest,” said Lutz, who completed the Running Through the Palms 5K in February with her daughter, a Lemon Bay High sophomore. Lutz typically trains ve days a week, Wednesday and Sunday her off days. She participates in a boot camp, which she credits with boosting her strength, and works out to tness videos at home. Most recently she has been running 5Ks to 10Ks, usually competing in Zoomers-sponsored events. Lutz nished the March 14 St. Patty’s Day 8K in 50 minutes, 45.7 seconds, eighth among 10 in the women’s 35 to 39 age group. “I was very happy,” she said Saturday after running 6 miles that morning. “I can see my times going back down to where I want.” She said she will participate in Saturday’s Savage Race in Dade City. The 6 -mile course has 25 obstacles, according to the event’s online site. The obstacle race will be her second, for she completed one two years ago. “I didn’t think I would (like it),” she said. “I actually really love it.“ “It’s not one I would like to do all the time,” she said, referring to the grueling state of the event. In April she’ll run in the Shark’s Tooth 10K. She has competed in it since the inaugural event in 2010, when she placed fth among 17 in her age group. “That’s one of my favorites,” she said. Though not driven by the times she runs, Lutz wants to keep approaching the times she posted before her body started to ache. “It’s always a little disappointing after you run that rst time after a hiatus,” she said. “I can see progress. As long you can see your progress, it makes you want to keep at it.” “For me running is a huge stress reliever,” she said. “I feel so much better after I run.”Share an accomplishment with Barbara Boxleitner at BKLE3@aol.com.Lutz runs a busy scheduleBy BARBARA BOXLEITNERSUN CORRESPONDENT RECREATIONAL SPORTS: RunningFormer Port Charlotte athlete runs with Lemon Bay daughter ORLANDO — Rory McIlroy’s road to the Masters was memorable for reasons not many would have imagined. He missed the cut at the Honda Classic. He was missing a club at the Cadillac Championship when he ung his 3-iron into a lake. And his highlight at the Arnold Palmer Invitational was eating a banana split after dinner with the King. “He went into it like it was the last supper,” Palmer said. It wasn’t pretty, but there was no reason for McIlroy to panic. He nished off the Florida swing with two birdies on the last three holes for a 2-under 70, eight shots behind Matt Every at Bay Hill. He tied for ninth at Doral, though he was still eight shots behind Dustin Johnson and never really featured on the weekend. In 10 rounds over three tournaments, he broke 70 only once. Before heading home to South Florida for two weeks of work before the Masters, he was asked if he should be the favorite at Augusta National. “Given how I’ve been playing, I guess if you go on form, then probably no,” McIlroy said. “But it depends how far you take that for back, and you’ve got to look at previous results there and all sorts of stuff.” There was no right way to answer the question, so he made an artful escape by adding, “I’m not a bookie.” But he is the favorite. And there will be loads of pressure on McIlroy. The opportunity is too great. Not since Lee Trevino in 1991 has a player gone to the Masters with a chance to complete the Grand Slam. Trevino never cared for Augusta National, never seriously contended there and besides, he was 51. McIlroy had a four-shot lead going into the nal round in 2011 and shot 80. He knows he can play there. He’s only 25. And he’s No. 1 in the world. Beyond the Grand Slam, he can join Tiger Woods and Ben Hogan as the only players with three straight majors since the Masters began in 1934. Those opportunities don’t come along very often, which is why Woods points to the 2000 PGA Championship (his third straight major) as his most clutch putting performance. The good news for McIlroy is the buildup to the Masters is over — at least for now. The rst three months of the year were all about Augusta National, and the hype wasn’t quite as strong as it could have been. He was asked about it a fair amount, though not enough to consume him. Either way, he was prepared for it. “I was expecting to get a lot of questions,” he said. “It’s a big deal what I’m try ing to achieve over there.”Rough road to the Masters for McIlroy GOLFOpportunity for Grand Slam awaits world’s No. 1 golfer AP PHOTORory McIlroy, of Northern Ireland, watches his putt on the rst green during the nal round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational golf tournament.

They’ve beaten Mississippi and Georgia State to reach the Sweet 16 for the fth time since 2008. Only eight other schools have done it as often, according to STATS. The sixth-seeded Musketeers have two seniors on scholarship. Their inexperience showed early in the season, but they’ve played their best in the last few weeks, reaching the Big East conference championship game and comfortably winning both NCAA Tournament games. Up next is second-seeded Arizona and former Xavier coach Sean Miller in the West Regional. “You know, what’s really special about our team is that we’ve grown a ton,” senior center Matt Stainbrook said. “We had a learning curve. “And over the season, we’ve done a good job of learning from our mistakes and getting a lot better. I think it’s great that the Big East has been able to test us with some really tough teams, and I think the fact that we’ve grown as a team together has made us really special at this point.” They’re in prestigious company. Since 2008, the list of schools to make the Sweet 16 so often includes Michigan State (7), Louisville (6), and Arizona, Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Wisconsin and Xavier with ve appearances, according to STATS. Ohio sent four teams into the tournament, and they all won their opening games. Ohio State, Cincinnati and Dayton were eliminated over the weekend, leaving only Xavier to keep playing. Xavier has reached the Elite Eight twice — in 2004 under Thad Matta and in 2008 with Miller — but never a Final Four. “When I was choosing schools, one thing that would stick out to me would be how good the basketball program would be,” freshman forward Trevon Bluiett said. “And looking at Xavier, not a lot of people look at them as a team to really go deep in the tournament. “People don’t really notice that and take notice of that (Sweet 16 appearances). But I do, and I think that’s one of the things that kind of factored into my decision in coming to Xavier.” With Stainbrook and senior point guard Dee Davis running Xavier’s inside-out offense, the Musketeers have been in control most of the way through their 76-57 win over Mississippi and their their 75-67 win over Georgia State. “We’ve had our ups and downs, but the best part about it is we’re starting to play our best basketball toward the end of the season,” Myles Davis said. “Yeah, we have a chip on our shoulder and we love trying to prove people wrong, and it’s just — it’s great.”Xavier makes itself at home in Sweet 16By JOE KAYASSOCIATED PRESS COLLEGE BASKETBALL: XavierMusketeers join elite company with latest appearance SWEET TEAMSTeams that have made the most appearancs in the Sweet 16 since 2008: 7: Michigan State 6: Louisvile 5: Arizona, Duke, Kansas Kentucky, North Carolina Wisconsin, Xavier AP PHOTOMaryland center Malina Howard, left, guards Princeton forward Alex Wheatley during Monday’s women’s NCAA Tournament game in College Park, Md.

After leading by four, 42-38, at the break, the Terrapins used a 17-2 run immediately after halftime to turn the game into a rout. The Terrapins (32-2) will bring a 26-game winning streak into a matchup with Duke on Saturday in Spokane, Wash. Maryland and Duke were longtime rivals in the Atlantic Coast Conference before the Terps moved to the Big Ten this season. Lexie Brown scored 23 for the Terrapins, who are making their fourth consecutive trip to the Sweet 16. Maryland reached the Final Four last year. Eighth-seeded Princeton (31-1) was coming off the program’s rst win in the NCAA Tournament, on Saturday against Wisconsin-Green Bay. North Carolina 86, Ohio State 84: In Chapel Hill, N.C., Jamie Cherry hit a jumper with 0.6 seconds left and North Carolina beat Ohio State. Stephanie Mavunga had a career-high 27 points and 14 rebounds, Allisha Gray added 20 points and Brittany Rountree had 15 for the fourth-seeded Tar Heels (26-8). They blew a 23-point lead before Cherry’s shot. Ameryst Alston had 30 points for the fifth-seeded Buckeyes (24-11), who never led but tied it twice in the final minute. Tennessee 77, Pittsburgh 67: In Knoxville, Tenn., Bashaara Graves scored 21 points and had 14 rebounds as Tennessee (29-5) withstood a late rally to improve to 56-0 in NCAA Tournament home games. After trailing by 14 with 4 minutes left, Pittsburgh (20-12) cut the lead to four, 69-65, on Brianna Kiesel’s three-point play with 37.8 seconds remaining. Ariel Massengale went 6 of 6 on free throws and made a steal in the final 37 seconds. Stanford 86, Oklahoma 76: In Stanford, Calif., Amber Orrange scored 24 points and Lili Thompson added 19 as Stanford’s backcourt mates took the game over in the second half. Bonnie Samuelson scored 19 points and Briana Roberson provided a spark with 13 points to help Stanford (26-9) advance to the Sweet 16. Kaylon Williams scored 24 points for the Sooners (21-12). Louisville 60, South Florida 52: In Tampa, Jude Schimmel scored 13 points, Myisha Hines-Allen added 12 and No. 3 seed Louisville reached its third consecutive NCAA Sweet 16. Louisville (27-6) will face Dayton in the round of 16. Courtney Williams had 25 points for South Florida (27-8). It was the 20th time she scored 20 or more this season. Schimmel had an in-close basket and set up Hines-Allen’s layup to put Louisville ahead 50-47 with 2:25 remaining. Bria Smith made it 52-47 with two free throws after a USF turnover. UConn 91, Rutgers 55: In Storrs, Conn., Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis scored 23 points to lead UConn on Geno Auriemma’s 61st birthday, putting the Huskies into the NCAA Tournament’s regional semifinals for the 22nd consecutive season. Arizona St. 57, ArkansasLittle Rock 54: In Tempe, Ariz., Sophie Brunner had 16 points and scored the go-ahead basket with less than a minute left, helping Arizona State rally from a 16-point deficit. No. 3 seed Arizona State (29-5) labored against UALR’s defensive pressure before getting the ball inside in the second half. Terps top PrincetonBY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS COLLEGE BASKETBALL: Women’s NCAA Tournament roundupOhio State falls to Tar Heels on late jumper coach Sue Semrau said. “I’ve got so many talented players. Sometimes there are players who are better in certain situations. They’ve accepted that role.” Freshman Shakayla Thomas scored 12 points and Leticia Romero added 11 as Florida State advanced to play Arizona State at Greensboro, N.C. “It feels good to be moving on,” Semrau said. “Now we really got to get our mind set on what’s ahead.” Freshman Taylor Gradinjan was FGCU’s only player in double gures with 12 points. FGCU shot just 30.9 percent overall and 25 percent on 3-pointers. The 47 points were a season low. “Florida State is just too good to leave that many points out on the oor,” Smesko said. “To beat a team as good as Florida State on their home court You’re going to have to shoot the 3 at a high per centage. You’re going to have to nish your layups at a high percentage. “When we got those types of shots, it wasn’t our day to make it,” he said. Whitney Knight, FGCU’s leading scorer and Atlantic Sun Player of the Year, struggled from the eld, making three of 12 shots. She nished with nine points. “They pressured defensively,” Knight said. “It got to us in the beginning.” Florida State (31-4) held a 36-28 lead at the half and built its biggest lead 62-38 on a pair of free throws by Ivey Slaughter with 5:44 left. Slow starts in both halves hurt FGCU’s upset hopes. The Seminoles opened the game with a 17-2 run, hitting their rst three 3-point attempts that included a pair by Brittany Brown. They began the second half in similar fashion, a 15-3 run capped by a Brown jumper that gave Florida State a 51-31 lead with 11:49 left. Florida Gulf Coast (31-3) pulled within six, 26-20, midway through the rst half, but never got closer.FGCUFROM PAGE 1 rff rfntbbnn rfrfntttbfb bnr fbntbbrf brffntnb nnrffntnb fn r‘’“ ”” $ 49 before 7:45am $150 $ 79 after 7:46am-1pm $ 69 after 1pm 4:00 TWILIGHT RATE ONLY $39 Not valid with other offers. 7-Day Advance Tee Times (941) 423-6955 $ 49 after 1:30pm www.HeronCreek.com 4 PLAYER SPECIAL $ 269 adno=50482863 HERON CREEK'o'Gouir.r G'luG '------------------------------i ii

Page 4 SP www.sunnewspapers.net The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 The guy has worked hard, then he has that with two weeks left. That’s pretty unfortunate. “It messes up his plan and maybe our plan, but it opens up an oppor tunity for some of the other guys.” Cash said Franklin’s injury will not affect Cabrera’s status as the everyday shortstop, but the Rays will have to rethink their plans at second base. Tim Beckham, Jake Elmore and Alexi Casilla are the likely candidates to spell Forsythe. But Cash said the Rays will have to determine the number of pitchers they’ll need before they decide whether to keep one or two of those three. Barring injuries, teams cannot recall players they optioned to the minors during the rst 10 days of the season. The Rays will not necessarily have to employ a platoon with Forsythe at second. Cash said he’s “done a really good job this spring.” However, Elmore and Casilla bring a versatility the Rays value, and Cash said Beckham isn’t a guy who needs to be sent to the minors just to get at-bats every day. Forsythe hit .223 with six home runs and 26 RBIs in spot duty during his rst season with the Rays last year, but he fared better with more playing time. The 28-year-old hit .330 with ve home runs and collected 15 RBIs during a 37-game stretch from June 16 through Aug. 14. “There’s still some decisions to be made there,” Cash said. “We’re still factoring all that in. But we like the guys that are there. And I think with Cabby at short, it kind of solidies some in-game decision making, which will help everybody.” Cabrera, who signed a one-year, $7.5 million deal with the Rays this offseason, came into camp not knowing which position he would play. The 29-year-old has played 731 games at shortstop and 210 at second, but he has been shadowed by questions about his elding range. Cash, who was the bullpen coach in Cleveland during Cabrera’s nal seasonand-a-half with the team, said he hasn’t seen any evidence of decreased range this spring.” The rst-year manager cited Cabrera’s ability to make “the everyday play” as the primary reason for naming him the shortstop. He brought up a fourth-inning play during Thursday’s game against Minnesota: Cabrera started an inning-ending 6-4-3 double play to get starter Nathan Karns out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam. “There wasn’t a doubt in anybody’s mind that we just got out of that inning, before the ball got to him,” Cash said. “And I think that’s a very glaring point to value.” Cabrera, who hit .241 with 14 home runs and 61 RBIs between Cleveland and Washington last year, responded to reports of his diminished range by working out more this offseason, and he came into camp ve to seven pounds lighter. Now that he’s been named the Rays’ starting shortstop, he wants to prove he can still play the position. “Everyone can say whatever they want, whatever they think,” Cabrera said. “I know what I can do, and I’m just going to do it this year.”Contact Josh Vitale at 941-206-1122 or jvitale@sun-herald.com.INFIELDFROM PAGE 1 SUN FILE PHOTOTampa Bay’s Nick Franklin slides into third during a game against Baltimore this spring in Sarasota.

PORT CHARLOTTE — Chris Archer wasn’t pleased he issued three consecutive two-out walks in the fourth inning. He was happy he struck out Pittsburgh pitcher A.J. Burnett to get out of the jam unscathed. The Tampa Bay righthander threw 423 innings in a 7-6 loss to the Pirates, giving up two unearned runs on three hits and four walks while striking out four. He threw 47 of his 78 pitches for strikes. “I wasn’t in sync. I don’t really don’t know why. But I’m not trying to focus on that so much because I got out of that inning, and then came out the next inning and executed every single pitch I threw,” Archer said. “Obviously, three walks in a row with two outs, you never want to do that. But I made the adjustment and I got back in sync.” Archer will make his next start on Saturday, when he said will throw another 75-plus pitches in a minor league game. His nal start of the spring will be shorter, but he doesn’t know when that will be because he’s “not 100 percent sure” where he’s going to slot into the regular-season rotation. Archer remains the likely favorite to start opening day. Balfour begins: Reliever Grant Balfour made his spring debut on Monday, giving up one hit — a solo home run to Pirates center fielder Gorkys Hernandez — in one inning. “I was happy with the way it went. I didn’t try to go out there and get excited or pumped up; I really tried to stay under control, and I worked on a couple things in my delivery that I feel good about,” said Balfour, who missed two weeks of camp due to the passing of his father on March 11. “For the first time out, I’m happy with that. That’s something to build off of.” Balfour, who will make his next appearance Thursday against the New York Yankees, has “no doubt” that he’ll be ready to start the regular season. Roster reduction: The Rays reassigned utilityman Taylor Motter and first baseman Allan Dykstra to minor league camp, bringing their roster to 48 players. Injury roundup: Infielder Nick Franklin strained his left oblique during batting practice on Monday, and manager Kevin Cash said the Rays are “not too optimistic he’ll be ready for opening day.” Outfielder Steven Souza returned to the lineup after a three-game absence due to right forearm tightness, but he left the game after getting hit by a pitch near the right wrist in the fifth inning. He said he was fine, though. Evan Longoria was hit on the left shoulder with a pitch in the fourth inning, but Cash said the third baseman was fine. Right-hander Alex Cobb (right forearm tendinitis) said he is close to pain free. He will have a scheduled checkup on his arm today. Righthander Alex Colome (pneumonia) threw 20 pitches in the first of three scheduled bullpen sessions and said it went well. Outfielder Brandon Guyer is dealing with a mild ankle sprain after recovering from an oblique injury last week, but Cash said Guyer is scheduled to get six to nine at-bats in a minor league game on Wednesday. Catcher Rene Rivera (left calf strain) took swings on Monday and will be back in the lineup on Wednesday. Left-hander Drew Smyly (left shoulder tendinitis) threw a 30-pitch bullpen on Monday and will throw another one on Thursday. Reliever Jake McGee (offseason elbow surgery) will throw a 30-pitch bullpen today. Reliever Ronald Belisario (fractured left shoulder) will throw his first bullpen session on Thursday. Extra bases: Right-hander Nathan Karns will pitch two innings in a minor league game on today’s off day. Bobby Wilson will catch him. With Karns, Archer and Odorizzi all making starts, the Rays are using Saturday as a way to “recycle every body and get on a rotation” for the start of the regular season. Archer partnered with national non-profit Good Sports to present more than $4,800 in new baseball equipment and apparel to the Charlotte High School baseball team.Contact Josh Vitale at 941-206-1122 or jvitale@sun-herald.com.Wildness against Pittsburgh irks Rays starter MLB: Tampa Bay notebookBalfour gives up one run in spring debutBy JOSH VITALESPORTS WRITER JUPITER — Mat Latos gave up seven hits in an eight-run second inning, and the New York Mets routed Miami 12-3 Monday. New York’s rst eight batters in the inning reached base before David Wright grounded into a double play. Daniel Muno tripled in the inning, and Anthony Recker and Ruben Tejada doubled. Michael Cuddyer singled leading off the inning and hit a solo homer for a 8-2 lead, his fth home run of spring training. Latros allowed nine runs, eight hits and two walks in three innings. Phillies 3, Twins 0: In Clearwater, David Buchanan allowed two hits in five innings, and Cody Asche hit a two-run homer for Philadelphia. Expected to be the Phillies’ No. 4 starter, Buchanan struck out three and walked none. He has given up one run over 12 innings in his last three games. Nationals 7, Yankees 6: In Viera, Doug Fister hit a two-run single off Chasen Shreve, and Washington rallied. Fister allowed four runs and seven hits in 4 innings, struck out four and walked none. Chris Young homered twice for the Yankees, off Fister and against Casey Janssen, and drove in three runs. Brian McCann hit a two-run home run off Fister. Padres 10, White Sox 4: In Peoria, Ariz., Tyson Ross pitched one-hit shutout ball for five innings, and Cameron Maybin hit two-run double for San Diego. The only hit allowed by Ross was a fly ball to center by Conor Gallaspie in the fourth than Maybin lost in the sun and landed for a double. Jedd Gyorko had three hits for the Padres. Indians 8, Athletics 3: In Goodyear, Ariz., Carlos Santana hit a two-run homer and a sacrifice fly, leading the Cleveland. Zach McAllister pitched four innings for Cleveland, allowing two hits and an unearned run. He struck out four and walked two. Braves 14, Astros 10: In Kissimmee, Nick Markakis had two hits in his spring training debut with Atlanta. An outfielder recovering from December neck surgery after nine seasons with Baltimore Orioles, Markakis led off the third inning with a double off Scott Feldman and singled in the fourth. Opening day surprises: Bartolo Colon, not Matt Harvey, was picked to start the New York Mets’ opener at Washington. Harvey is returning from elbow ligament-re placement surgery that has sidelined him since August 2013. Colon, at 41, will become the oldest opening-day starting pitcher in the majors since 2006, when 43-year-old Jamie Moyer was on the mound for Seattle. Max Scherzer will start Washington’s opener instead of Stephen Strasburg. Scherzer will be making his first opening-day start. Strasburg had pitched the last three for the Nationals. Around the nation: Indians manager Terry Francona said he doesn’t expect slugger Nick Swisher to be ready for the team’s season opener. Swisher underwent surgery on both knees in August and has been slower to recover than expected.Mets shell Latos in rout of MarlinsBY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MLB: Monday’s highlightsColon gets opening day start for Mets AP PHOTOSan Diego center elder Cameron Maybin loses a y ball in the sun on what was scored a double for Chicago White Sox hitter Conor Gillaspie during Monday’s game in Peoria, Ariz. r-1I ' IJ10

The Sun /Tuesday, March 24, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net SP Page 5 Over a century of family ownership of Louisville Slugger bats is going going nearly gone. The company that makes the iconic bats gripped by generations of ballplayers — from Babe Ruth to David Wright — announced a deal Monday to sell its Louisville Slugger brand to rival Wilson Sporting Goods Co. for $70 million. For 131 years, the family behind Hillerich & Bradsby Co. has supplied bats for games from the sandlots to the big leagues. H&B CEO John A. Hillerich IV said keeping the bat business in family hands had been a dinnertime topic for years. But as the competition’s lineup grew in recent years, the family became willing to listen to offers to acquire the brand. “It’s always been the family’s desire to keep the brand independent and family owned,” Hillerich told reporters. “It’s worked extremely well for 131 years. “But we’ve seen things change and we had to make a very tough decision. We’d rather the brand go on and have somebody else own it than potentially put it in jeopardy by keeping it in the family.” Hillerich is the great-grandson of John A. “Bud” Hillerich, who churned out the rst Louisville Slugger bat in 1884 for a renowned baseball player in his day, Pete Browning. Under terms of the agreement, H&B will continue to manufacture Louisville Slugger wood bats at its factory in downtown Louisville, Ky. “The guys down on the oor today are going to be the guys making the bats tomorrow and a year from now and a decade from now,” Hillerich said. But sale of the brand will cost 52 H&B workers their jobs, out of a total workforce numbering about 270, Hillerich said. The remaining employ ees will work either for H&B or Wilson. Louisville Slugger will remain an independent brand once the deal is completed, said Mike Dowse, president of Wilson Sporting Goods. That means the Louisville Slugger bats will still carry the brand’s recognizable oval logo. Wilson’s deal to acquire the global brand, sales and innovation rights of Louisville Slugger still requires approval by H&B shareholders.Iconic bat maker sells to WilsonBy BRUCE SCHREINERASSOCIATED PRESS BUSINESS: Louisville SluggerManufacturing to remain at Louisville factory under deal | QUICK HITSDOCUMENTS SUGGEST UAB CONSIDERED SEPT. FOOTBALL ANNOUNCEMENTBIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Documents indicate UAB may have considered announcing the shutdown of football and two other sports two months earlier.

UAB President Ray Watts announced the decision to end football, bowling and rie shortly after the season, citing the nancial costs of maintaining competitive programs. UAB said in a statement no denite decision had been made before November.SWIMMINGFormer Olympic swimming champion Park banned: In Lausanne, Switzerland, Former Olympic swimming champion Park Tae-hwan of South Korea has been banned 18 months for doping. Swimming governing body FINA said Park tested positive for testosterone in an out-of-com petition drug test in September. SOCCERFIFA candidate Van Praag questions ‘strange’ Fox TV deal: In Vienna, FIFA presidential candidate Michael van Praag said extending Fox’s World Cup broadcast rights to 2026 was “very strange.” Van Praag says FIFA awarding the contract last month without inviting other American broadcasters to bid was “not something I would do.” In Vienna, UEFA has agreed to its 2018 World Cup qualifying process based on 13 available places, though believes it deserves a 14th. UEFA general secretary Gianni Infantino said Europe will retain the same format of nine qualifying groups from the 2014 tournament.SKIINGTop skiers headed to Maine for US Alpine Championships: In Portland, Maine, Fresh from the World Cup finals, Lindsey Vonn, Mikaela Shiffrin and other top U.S. skiers are headed from France to Maine to finish the competitive season at the U.S. Alpine Championships.

The move was met with approval by one of the sponsors of legislation to eliminate the blackout permanently. “This decision to suspend the blackout policy for the upcoming NFL season is a victory for the millions of sports fans and consumers across the country,” said Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut), “and it brings us one step closer to eliminating this anti-fan measure once and for all. This antiquated, anti-consumer rule has for too long served only to protect the NFL’s bottom line at the expense of sports fans. “I urge the FCC to take action to permanently remove the rule so that sports fans have the opportunity to cheer on their favorite teams, regardless of where they are watching.” Last September, the FCC repealed its sport blackout rules, denying reinforcement of the league’s blackout policy. But the ruling did not affect the NFL’s ability to maintain the blackout policy through existing broadcast contracts. Blackouts have been a part of the NFL since the 1950s, when team owners believed showing local games would damage attendance. In 1973, the current league policy was put into action. The league said it will evaluate the impact of the suspension after the season. NFL blackouts have declined dramatically in recent years, dipping to 40 percent in the 1980s, 31 percent in the 1990s, 8 percent in the 2000s, and 5 percent in this decade, according to league gures.BLACKOUTFROM PAGE 1 PHOENIX — Millions of viewers and thousands of fans saw a wobbly Julian Edelman remain in the Super Bowl. After looking at video of that situation and several similar ones, the NFL’s powerful competition committee is proposing a change. NFL owners are considering a proposal to stop games when a medical adviser sees a player displaying obvious signs of disorientation. The suggestion was a late addition by the committee at the owners’ meetings that began Monday. It would allow a medical spotter upstairs to communicate with the ofciating crew when a player appears unstable. The game would be halted to remove the player, who then would undergo sideline examination at the very least. “We got the (medical) spotters, they’ve got a really good vantage point, they’ve got technology in their booth, they’re communicating pretty well with our trainers and doctors and we’ve got a pretty good rhythm going there,” Rich McKay, co-chairman of the committee and president of the Atlanta Falcons, said. “Why would we miss a play where a player should have come out of the game?” The player’s team would be allowed to substitute for him, and the opposite team also would be given a chance to change personnel. That is one of two dozen proposals and rules changes being considered by the owners in a busy agenda. Other suggested changes include using instant replay for reviewing all penalties called by game ofcials, yes, pass interference and holding calls, too; all personal fouls; penalties against defenseless players; any foul that results in an automatic rst down; and clock issues. New England even proposed that everything except scoring plays or turnovers be challengeable, and Washington suggested increasing a coach’s number of challenges from two to three, regardless of whether he is successful on an early challenge. Owners will vote on some of the proposals in the next two days, with several likely being tabled until the next major meetings in May. The competition committee does not endorse using replay for penalties. “The committee’s position for years has been to oppose involving fouls in replay for a lot of different reasons,” he said. “We’ve looked at a lot of tape this offseason, we looked at the fouls particularly relating to hits on defenseless players. We had 27 of them this year, we looked at them as a group. We could not agree on a number of them. “That’s just the nature of the standard in replay.”Proposal targets woozy players NFL: Owners meetingsChange would allow observer to pull players from gameBy BARRY WILNERASSOCIATED PRESS AP PHOTOFormer NFL safety Darren Sharper, center, with his attorneys, Lisa Wayne, left, and Leonard Levine, right, appear in Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday. Sharper was sentenced to nine years in federal prison Monday immediately after he pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a woman in Arizona.PHOENIX — Miami added an extra season to Joe Philbin’s contract, which could keep him as the team’s coach until after the 2016 season. However, when Steve Ross was discussing the extension, which is geared toward preventing Philbin from being a “lame duck” coach the team’s owner stressed that he expects the Dolphins to produce a winning season and make a push for the playoffs this year. He added that everyone on his staff’s performance gets reviewed annually, which hints that a disappointing 2015 campaign wouldn’t prevent him from removing Philbin or anyone else in the Dolphins’ front ofce. “I really believe that you don’t get the best out of someone when they are operating with a gun to their head,” said Ross, whose Dolphins teams have produced one winning season (2008) since he became the franchise’s owner. “There has to be improvement. “I’m looking to make the playoffs, and I think Joe is looking to make the playoffs,” Ross continued. “The expectation is we’re all looking to make the playoffs.” Kraft believes LA will have 2 teams: New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he believes the NFL will have two teams in the Los Angeles area within the next year. “I don’t think it’s good that we’ve let a generation of fans, young kids, grow up without a team. It’s not good for the NFL,” Kraft said at the NFL owners’ meetings in Phoenix. “I really believe within the next year we’ll have two teams in this market. We have some real good options.” He didn’t say which teams might wind up there, although speculation is the Rams, Chargers and Raiders are prime candidates. Sharper pleads no contest: In Los Angeles, former NFL star Darren Sharper removed all doubt that he drugged and raped women, taking the first of several legal steps to own up to sex assaults in four states that will send him to federal prison for about nine years. In two separate cases, Sharper pleaded guilty to sexual assault in Arizona and no contest in California to raping two women he knocked out with a potent sedative mixed with booze. Sharper was a former all-pro safety who won a Super Bowl with the New Orleans Saints. Around the NFL: Wide receiver Nathan Slaughter, who took part in Sunday’s veterans combine, signed with Arizona. Slaughter ran what some estimated as an unofficial 4.37 in the 40-yard dash, the fastest time. The NFL is considering foreign sites for the Pro Bowl. Next year’s game will be played in Honolulu. Brazil has been mentioned as one possible destination.Dolphins add year to Philbin’s contractWIRE REPORTS NFL NOTEBOOK successfully, received help from her defense and made big pitches when needed. When Port Charlotte loaded the bases in the fourth with one out, she retired Danielle Ferrentino and Amber Libby swinging. Cabral nished by striking out the side in the sixth. Meanwhile, Charlotte’s offense ignited in the third inning with the help of a double steal, on which Kendall Chav arria scored, a Jesse Valerius RBI elder’s choice, two Port Charlotte errors on the same play and a Gabby Innello RBI double. The result was a 6-1 lead. Charlotte (10-4) blew the game open in the sixth. Rylee Garand and Marissa Stack each had two-run doubles, the latter ended the game. Stack was 2 for 4, scored twice and drove in two. Valerius, Hayse, Innello and Chavarria had two hits in the Tarpons’ 13-hit attack. Port Charlotte (2-11), coming off a win at Island Coast, tied the game at 1 in the third on Morgan Coslor’s RBI single, the Pirates’ only hit.

Both teams used Monday’s match as a warm-up for their respective district tournaments. “We’re looking pretty good,” Lemon Bay coach Darrell Roach said. “We’re healthy and playing pretty good.” The Manta Rays won four of the ve singles matches and the No. 2 doubles. Charlotte forfeited the No. 1 doubles match because one of its players was sick. Senior Vika Antonova, who was honored before the senior day match, won at No. 2 singles to nish the season 9-3. Shannen Smith, at No. 5 singles, nished the regular season unbeaten at 11-0. Stephanie Krisinski, No. 3, and Ashley Tormey, No. 4, completed 12-1 campaigns. Rafaella Ferretti earned the lone point for Charlotte, rolling past Sarah Lown, 6-0, 6-2, at No. 1 singles. Ferretti, who is 6-1, beat Lown twice this season, producing two of her three losses. “I played pretty good today,” Ferretti said. “The best part of my game was my forehand. I played about as good as I did the rst time (she defeated Lown).” Charlotte gets to stay home for its district tournament. It is the host team on Thursday and Friday. “I was happy with the way we played,” Charlotte coach Nanci Daniel said. “We’re getting ready for districts.” Lemon Bay travels to Sebring on Wednesday and Thursday. The Manta Rays are favored to win their sixth consecutive district title. They are also seeking their sixth consecutive regional title and sixth consecutive state nal eight appearance. “We have a good chance going in (to districts),” Roach said. “Cape Coral may have the best No. 1 singles player, but they don’t have as much depth.”LEMON BAY 6, CHARLOTTE 1Singles: Rafaella Ferretti (C) d.
