CHARLOTTE COUNTY „ A recent housing study is drawing criticism for identifying a critical need for more apartments, but recommending more market-rate rentals that are too expensive for local families and the workforce. The Charlotte County Economic Development Of“ce commissioned an analysis of housing market conditions, along with economic and demographic trends, then contrasting this data with the existing supply of multifamily apartments in the Punta Gorda metropolitan statistical area, which covers all of Charlotte County. The objective was to determine current and future demands for multifamily rentals. ÂJBREC projects new apartment demand in Charlotte County for 219 market-rate units per year over the next “ve years,ÂŽ the analysis stated. ÂIt is likely that the existing apartment supply will not be suf“cient for the additional demand and new apartment supply will be needed.ÂŽ However, the report goes on to call for more Âinvestment-grade apartment complexes,ÂŽ citing examples such as Lakes of Tuscana and Oaks on Henry, which have one-bedroom rents approaching $1,000 or more per month. Loraine Helber, Punta Gorda Housing Authority executive director, said these rents are beyond the means of both workforce wages and affordable housing standards. ÂTo mention the need for units like Lakes of Tuscana and The Oaks on Henry without discussing the substantial need for units with rents between $700 and $1,000 a month is grossly misleading,ÂŽ she said in a letter to county commissioners. In fact, one of the reportÂs own charts indicates that affordable housing (rents between $700 and $1,000 a month) is needed, Helber said. The chart shows that of the 219 market-rate apartment units needed per year, 78 percent, or 171 units, are required to meet the growth demand for apartments renting under $1,000, with 129 of those units needed with rents under $700. Furthermore, the study does not even address the current extreme backlog for those seeking apartments renting under $1,000 month, she said. Rather than referring to two apartment complexes that charge higher rents, Helber asks why the study did not mention other apartment complexes with rents between $700 and $1,000, such as Gulf Breeze Apartment Homes and Charlotte Crossing Apartments. ÂThese complexes may be subsidized in some way, but that is irrelevant in a discussion on need,ÂŽ she said. ÂThe working poor need rentals under $1,000 and they canÂt “nd them.ÂŽ And Helber also questions the ultimate purpose of the study, saying the countyÂs intent to upgrade its housing stock is taking precedence over providing affordable living. ÂThe Economic Development Department is trying to encourage the development of market-rate apartments. They want to shed a light on Charlotte County as a place for nice housing. It certainly was not to underscore the need for affordable workforce housing,ÂŽ she said in an interview. Lucienne Pears, county economic development director, responded that she views workforce and market-rate housing as similar, saying her goal is to satisfy the housing demands of How much is too much?By GARY ROBERTSSTAFF WRITERAuthority director: County housing report ÂmisleadingÂDEMOGRAPHIC SNAPSHOT Punta Gorda MSA Sarasota MSA Florida United States Population 167,490 737,473 19,603,994 318,536,439 Households 77,379 325,978 7,718,695 120,746,349 Median HH Income $44,386 $50,306 $47,255 $53,217 Renter Households 20.8% 38.6% 35.9% 36.9% Median Age 58.0 51.4 41.9 37.9 Median Home Value $135,588 $195,167 not available $175,924 Source: John Burns Real Estate Consulting report; 2015 data HOUSING | 4 SUN FILE PHOTODemand for aordable housing is up in the region.BOTTOM LINESupply is not even coming close to demand for lower priced rentals. I got a glimpse recently of where Charlotte County could be headed. And it wasnÂt pretty. A recent caller wanted to know about an article in the Sun about a new housing development. He said he heard there were 500 or so units planned for Peachland Boulevard and Veterans Boulevard. He said he heard we had written a story about it and he hadnÂt seen it „ even though he reads the newspaper regularly. I looked up the information and relayed the plans by Private Equity Group, the same folks involved with Murdock Village, to build (or have built) market-rate apartments and some commercial buildings on a site they have purchased at the Veterans/Peachland intersection. I could feel his temperature rising through the phone. ÂI have asked my commissioner about this, and he said there is nothing to it. Did he lie to me?ÂŽ I suggested his commissioner could not con“rm a project that was still only a concept. It had to be permitted and plotted “rst. Then it is a reality. ÂAll of our folks here are up in arms over this.ÂŽ Why, I asked. ÂWe donÂt want low-income housing in our neighborhood.ÂŽ Ahhh. Now weÂre getting to the crux of the issue. I tried to explain the days of Section 8, low-income, government-subsidized housing are pretty much over. The planned apartments would be similar to the attractive Lakes of Tuscana complex on Veterans Boulevard that will be their neighbor. He didnÂt buy it. I suggested we really needed housing for people making $40,000 to $50,000 a year. Nurses, “re“ghters, teachers and the like. ÂWhy?ÂŽ he asked. I knew I was in trouble now. I asked him if he realized our schools had lost a couple thousand students in the last 10 years. ÂSo what?ÂŽ he said. Wow, hardcore.

Polk Avenue, Arcadia MURDOCK „ CharlotteÂs Washington, D.C., lobbyist cast an air of doubt over legislative efforts to move forward with President Donald TrumpÂs health care and economic policies. Greg Burns told commissioners last week that county residents should not expect much assistance from the federal government on current issues of local importance, such as ”ood insurance relief, environmental concerns, health care reform and the presidentÂs $1 trillion infrastructure and jobs program. Pulling away the curtain from behind-thescenes activity in the halls of Congress, Burns said there is an uneasy mood in the nationÂs capital. After some early momentum upon taking of“ce, the presidentÂs vaunted deal-making skills will be sorely tested if his fundamental campaign promises are to be kept. A ruling, but splintered, Republican Party, unable to “nd consensus or direction on important issues, could impede progress on the business at hand, he said. Refreshingly, Burns voiced his assessment untempered by political, or party, correctness. ÂThereÂs a lot of uncertainty and apprehension,ÂŽ he said. ÂThere was a sense of optimism right after he was elected ... but governing is hard. This system was not meant to work in a one-party way.ÂŽ On the hot topic that is front and center, Burns said the push to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act faces stiff opposition from all sides, including from within the Republican Party. ÂTwisted armsÂŽ in the House may advance the proposed Federal Health Care Act, but it is not enough for “nal passage, he predicted. ÂIn the Senate you wonÂt be able to do that,ÂŽ he said. ÂItÂs very clear that the House bill would not pass the Senate as currently written.ÂŽ Another major thrust is to reform the National Flood Insurance Program, which remains a top concern for Charlotte County and all of Florida. Congress will need to address the NFIP, which expires Sept. 30. However, Burns said coastal residents calling out for more affordable rates and local control over ”ood maps should lower their expectations. ÂBroadly speaking, ”ood insurance is not likely to get less expensive or less onerous. ItÂs more likely to become less available, quite frankly, and more expensive,ÂŽ he said. ÂWeÂre going to face a few headwinds in that regard, but we will work on it diligently.ÂŽ In other discouraging news for Manasota Key property owners, there seems to be little chance of receiving federal dollars toward an Army Corps of Engineers study to limit the erosion of beaches and Stump Pass. ÂItÂs not going to be easy to get this study funded,ÂŽ he said. Burns said all domestic agencies are facing a budget cut to help pay for TrumpÂs budget blueprint, which asks for a $54 billion boost in defense spending. The U.S. already spends more than $600 billion a year on the military. To help pay for the military build-up, Trump would slash the Environmental Protection Agency by 31 percent and the State Department by 28 percent. In addition, there is a growing movement in Washington, D.C., to eliminate the National Estuary Program, including Charlotte HarborÂs own NEP and a 20-year history of protecting its estuarine system. ÂThat certainly would have some impact locally given your successful program here,ÂŽ he said. Also in jeopardy is the presidentÂs pledge for a $1 trillion infrastructure investment program. ÂRight now, I hate to say, there is no infrastructure plan. ItÂs all been talk,ÂŽ he said. Since there is no money for that initiative, more than likely any infrastructure spending plan would take the shape of a private “nancing plan, requiring loans, Burns said. There is also a drive to consolidate Metropolitan Planning Organizations into larger, regional MPOs. ÂIn theory itÂs not necessarily a bad idea, but in practice it can be challenging and could also remove some opportunity for local decision-making,ÂŽ he said. While Charlotte has typically opposed this restructuring, a number of government agencies support such a change in order to work with fewer MPOs, he said. Commissioner Stephen R. Deutsch said he would oppose the move. ÂThis board and the MPO prefer to see things the way they are, rather than have this countyÂs in”uence diluted if we would be sucked up into Sarasota or Tampa,ÂŽ he said. ÂWe feel pretty strong about that.ÂŽ Charlotte commissioners Bill Truex, Ken Doherty, Joe Tiseo and Christopher Constance are going to Washington, D.C., this week in an attempt to meet with legislators regarding the countyÂs legislative priorities.Email: groberts@sun-herald.comLobbyist: Federal legislative agenda for Charlotte and the nation at riskBy GARY ROBERTSSTAFF WRITER DEUTSCH DISCOVER THE ANTHONYÂS WOMAN IN YOU.

Our Town Page 4 E/N/C www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 FROM PAGE ONE Reinventing housing and affordabilityHow baugruppen are pioneering the self-made cityProfit-driven developments shape the housing markets of most major cities today. However, new models exist that offer greater choice and lower costs, foster cohesive neighborhoods and enable adaptable, customised living solutions. These alternatives have been diverse and of a high architectural standard. They also allow self-determination: they are initiated by the people who will dwell in them. Baugruppe „ German for Âbuilding groupÂŽ „ stands for a long tradition of self-initiated, community-oriented living and the shared responsibility of building. The concept has taken off in Berlin. There is no Âtypical modelÂŽ „ every project differs in its financing, social make-up, the wishes and desires of the group, and the projectÂs resulting architectural and urban qualities. The most significant and innovative built examples, particularly in Berlin, have been initiated by architects for a specific group of clients who were all looking to live in the buildings. On the surface, these are practical solutions. Singlefamily homes are stacked and combined to optimize the use of an urban site. On closer inspection, it is clear that close collaboration between architects and clients has resulted in projects packed with special features and spaces that foster social interaction „ such as Ritter Strasse 50 and Spreefeld. Communal spaces throughout baugruppe Spreefeld include playrooms, office space, terraces and a teenager club. Baugruppe adds to urban vitality by considering social issues of inclusion and community and by incorporating mixed-use elements that fuel urban interaction. Green, open and community spaces have proven vital parts of good neighborhoods and are important here. Common spaces such as rooftop terraces, function rooms, playrooms, guest rooms and even saunas also help to bring people together. Every baugruppe project in Berlin has a shared garden, which is often also open to the public. The entire neighborhood profits from the green and surrounding urban spaces. The experience helps foster a sense of community identity and encourages people to take responsibility for the place they live in.Affordable and sustainableLong-term affordability helps to create stable neighborhoods. Alternative models for financing and ownership have offered a new level of long-term affordability within a nonprofit ideology. In collective projects, the future users decide what to invest in and where money can be best saved. This redefines the quality-to-price relationship. One example of this is the co-op association Spreefeld. This project diverges from the traditional owner-occupier baugruppe model: here, a land grant or a leasehold contract guarantees the long-term use of land in return for rent. It also ensures that what is built and established there meets certain criteria and ideals. Architect Florian Koehl worked closely with owners to design fold-out balconies at Strelitzer Strasse 53. Personalized solutions, and spaces that can be adapted to suit changing needs over time, allow people with special needs to find a place in the city. For example, these spaces can allow multi-generation living, barrier-free standards, or an environmentally aware way of life. The Strelitzer Strasse 53 project, on which architect Florian Koehl worked closely with the owner group, includes fold-out balconies, as city planning regulations prohibited real ones. This inspired many other baugruppen to try new ideas. Such projects show the architectÂs role expanding from that of designer to that of initiator, developer, moderator of engagement processes and project manager. Baugruppe projects are leading the way in environmental sustainability by employing, for example, high-rise timber construction or passive design. Users and owners willingly explore new technology, carefully balancing its pros and cons. Several different types of multistory wooden construction solutions are now certified in Germany as a result of baugruppe experimentation. It is time that our cities are determined by the people who live in them. High-quality solutions that improve the surrounding communities should become standard. This requires the architectural profession, as well as policymakers, to value such solutions. Often, the largest challenge for groups is buying a site. Specifically, they must organize the loan quickly enough to beat other investors to the table. Governments could allow payment on a site to be deferred until the groups are fully formed and have planning approval. By designating public land for development, the social, cultural and urban planning goals of the city can be realized through private initiatives and long-term self-administration. Goals such as social mix, mixed use, environmental standards or nonprofit constraints can all be regulated within land allocation policies. England, Finland and many other countries are re-establishing policy to facilitate baugruppe building. Baugruppen can help cities meet the challenge of providing an adequate supply of suitable, affordable housing in a sustainable way. By transforming themselves from consumers into pioneers, the people who make up the collectives have succeeded in developing affordable projects that allow a high quality of life and add value to the community.By KRISTIEN RINGUNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA PORT CHARLOTTE „ Carmen Maria, 71, wanted to move to Florida to be closer to family. So, the Californian called a friend here to do the legwork and found Charlotte Crossing Apartments. Although there was a waiting list, the 82-unit complex offered low-income apartments, which “t MariaÂs “xed-income needs. After having to bide her time, she “nally arrived a year ago to discover a nice neighborhood in Deep Creek, a well-kept apartment building and how utterly fortunate she was to be there. Maria pays $672 per month for a two-bedroom apartment. ÂThe rent allows me enough money to have a little fun,ÂŽ she said. Maria realizes, however, that other renters donÂt enjoy the same bene“t. Apartments in the area are getting more and more expensive, she said, because high demand in season is driving up prices. ÂI never expected Florida to be this way. I thought seniors would be given more consideration,ÂŽ she said. ÂLandlords rely so much on snowbirds, they will even hold the apartment until the next winter. ThatÂs how much money they make.ÂŽ But those who are on a “xed income, or receive housing assistance of any kind, are “nding it harder to make ends meet, said Robert Hebert, Charlotte County housing and community initiatives manager. For example, rent on a three-bedroom, two-bath house here ranges from $1,200-$3,000 per month. Ten years ago, these same homes could be found for between $600 and $800 a month, he said. Market-rate apartments also start at around $1,000 for a one-bedroom. Even subsidized housing can fall short of affordability. Hebert said fair market rent vouchers for the Punta Gorda metropolitan statistical area, as determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, have not kept pace in recent years with rent increases. HUD fair market rent amounts are primarily used to determine rent-subsidy payments for housing assistance in low-income programs. In 2016, fair market rent payments were even reduced from the previous year. ÂI couldnÂt believe it,ÂŽ he said. ÂItÂs just amazing.ÂŽ In 2015, the fair market rent payment standard for a one-bedroom unit in Charlotte was established at $669 per month, followed by $634 last year and $661 this “scal year, which began in October. Hebert said market-rate apartments are double or triple this amount. ÂPeople are struggling now because housing vouchers donÂt cover rents,ÂŽ he said. Loraine Helber, Punta Gorda Housing Authority executive director, has challenged HUD standards for the Punta Gorda MSA in the past, to no avail. ÂI have protested our fair market rents for many, many years,ÂŽ she said. ÂItÂs quite a problem for people trying to “nd apartment rents and for “nding landlords willing to participate in our program.ÂŽ Part of the predicament is that HUD uses old data, so fair market rent standards are generally lower than what the current market will bear. ÂThe most current data they have is three years behind,ÂŽ Helber said. Consequently, even if an affordable rental is obtained, it may not stay that way for long. ÂIÂve had landlords in my program ask for a $300 monthly increase in rent,ÂŽ she said. And the relatively low wage scale in the county further exacerbates an already dif“cult situation. In the Punta Gorda MSA, which covers all of Charlotte County, the median household income is $44,386, which is 6 percent below the state of Florida and 20 percent lower than the national median income, according to the U.S. Census. To qualify for subsidized housing, households must earn 60 percent or less of an area median income. Depending on household size, roughly $500 per month can be afforded for rent, based on HUD standards. For workforce housing, households can earn up to 120 percent of an area median income and afford about $1,000 per month for rent. Those on “xed income could fare far worse. ÂThatÂs the people we serve,ÂŽ Helber said. ÂSo many people are trying to survive on Social Security.ÂŽEmail: groberts@sun-herald.comNeedy also feeling pinch of high rentsBy GARY ROBERTSSTAFF WRITER businesses being recruited. ÂMy mission is to attract high-skill, high-wage opportunities,ÂŽ she said. ÂSupply and demand determines what the market rate is.ÂŽ Still, Pears concedes that the low wages paid in Charlotte may fall short of market-rate rentals. And the gap is growing. Robert Hebert, county housing and community initiatives manager, said the escalating cost of housing and the lack of available inventory is putting many in an economic bind. Most affordable rental housing complexes, he noted, have waiting lists. Vacancy rates in the Punta Gorda MSA have been decreasing since 2012 and were down 4.8 percent in 2014, indicating a tight apartment market, according to the JBREC analysis. This housing shortage has affected the countyÂs ability to lure new business to the area. Another recent consultant study found an older workforce in Charlotte, with an inadequate pool of skilled and educated workers that continues to shrink. ÂIf a company workforce canÂt afford to live here, theyÂre not going to come here,ÂŽ Hebert said. ÂThe short-term solution is weÂve got to come up with more inventory. But itÂs hard to make it work because developers need to make a pro“t. ItÂs just this vicious cycle weÂve got ourselves in.ÂŽ The lack of housing has pushed rents up dramatically, Hebert said, beyond the reach of many lowto middle-income workers. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development recommends that housing costs, including utilities, not exceed 30 percent of total income. ÂMost households in Charlotte are paying upwards of 60 percent for housing,ÂŽ he said. Meanwhile, North Port has little dif“culty attracting a skilled workforce by providing amenities and assets that attract a younger, more educated and highly productive demographic. However, even North Port is looking to expand its housing options, North Port Economic Development Program Manager Ruth Buchanan said. ÂAs the city grows its residential and commercial base, the need to diversify the housing stock to also include multifamily units is now immediate,ÂŽ she said. ÂThe new incentive program created by City Commission is de“nitely a strong signal to the development community that we realize the need is there and that we are committed to addressing it from a local governmentÂs perspective.ÂŽ And the squeeze placed on renters is getting more clenched. Population growth in Charlotte County is expected to surpass the national average in the coming years. Moreover, rising home prices may lead future residents to consider renting, as home ownership is becoming less affordable, the study stated. Currently, 20.8 percent of households within the Punta Gorda MSA favor rental housing. JBREC projects the trend of rental households in the U.S. to increase by 4.4 percent annually over the next “ve years. Within that time frame, though, some help may be on the way. Private Equity Group, the same developer of a master-planned community in Murdock Village, intends to build 500 apartment units in a different project, located on 55 acres between Veterans and Loveland boulevards. These apartments are intended to provide affordable workforce housing, PEG President Don Schrotenboer said. Babcock Ranch, a huge, 18,000-acre community emerging in east Charlotte and Lee counties, also plans a mix of workforce and market-rate rentals.

The Bra-Dazzle brunch Saturday helped raise awareness of the importance of getting a mammogram in a fun, lighthearted way. The event showcased a bra-decorating contest for individuals and business owners who helped raise thousands to pay for mammograms for those who are underinsured or have no insurance and are in need of the preventative test.Bra-Dazzle is a huge success SUN PHOTOS BY ELAINE ALLEN-EMRICHAmong the uniquely decorated bras was one by Sue Vaughn titled Little Birdies Say Get Your Mammogram. Tony Babington of Keller Williams supports the event as a Bra-Dazzle model. All tip money he raised at the bra auction also will fund mammograms for Englewood, Venice, North Port and Charlotte County residents. Chris Bertler of Pro Audio Service has supported his mother RitaÂs Dollars for Mammograms program as well as Bra Dazzle for years. He modeled several decorated bras which were auctioned o on Saturday. The average total a bra was sold for was more than $110. Model Tony Babington fetched $100 for a mermaid bra during the event.

Our Town Page 6 E/N/C www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 PORT CHARLOTTE FL Â… The most common method your doctor recommends to treat your neuropathy is with prescription drugs that may temporarily reduce your symptoms. These drugs have names such as Gabapentin, Lyrica, Cymbalta, and Neurontin, and are primarily antidepressants or anti-seizure drugs. These drugs may cause you to feel uncomfortable and have a variety of harmful side effects. Peripheral neuropathy is a result of damage to the nerves often causing weakness, pain, numbness, tingling, and the most debilitating balance problems. This damage is commonly caused by a lack of blood flow to the nerves in the hands and feet which causes the nerves to begin to degenerate due to lack of nutrient flow. As you can see in Figure 2, as the blood vessels that surround the nerves become diseased they shrivel up which causes the nerves to not get the nutrients to continue to survive. When these nerves begin to ÂdieÂŽ, they cause you to have balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling, burning, and many other symptoms. The problem is that your doctor has told you to just live with the problem or try the drugs which you donÂt like taking because they make you feel horrible. There is now a facility in Port Charlotte that offers you hope without taking those endless drugs with serious side effects. (See the special neuropathy severity examination at the end of this article.) The patient and any other person responsible for payment has a right to refuse to pay, cancel payment, or be reimbursed for payment for any other service, examination or treatment that is performed as a result of and within 72 hours of responding to the advertisement for the free, discounted fee, or reduced fee service, examination or treatment.Figure 1: Super pulsed laser therapy that helps fight neuropathy pain.Figure 2: When these very small blood vessels become diseased they begin to shrivel up and the nerves begin to degenerate & die.Figure 3: The blood vessels will grow back around the nerves much like a plantÂs roots grow when watered.If YouÂre Suering With Peripheral Neuropathy, ere Is An Exciting New Solution For Sarasota & Charlotte Co. ResidentsUnique Breakthrough: New Laser Neuropathy Treatment RevealedIn order to effectively treat your neuropathy, three factors must be determined. 1) What is your underlying cause? 2) How much nerve damage have you sustained? NOTE: Once you have sustained 85% nerve loss, there is likely nothing that we can do for you. 3) How much treatment will your condition require? The treatment that is provided at Pivotal Health Physical Medicine has three main goals: 1) Increase blood flow 2) Stimulate & regenerate your nerves 3) Decrease your pain, numbness, and tingling The treatment to increase blood flow utilizes a specialized FDA approved super pulsed robotic laser therapy This technology was originally developed by NASA to assist in increasing blood flow and nerve regeneration. The laser therapy is like watering a plant. The robotic laser therapy will allow your blood vessels to grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. ItÂs like adding water to a plant and seeing the roots grow deeper and deeper. We use super pulsed laser therapy to decrease pain, accelerate nerve healing, improve balance, and sleep and eliminate numbness and tingling in the legs, feet, and hands. Better yet... the number of treatments are very short in duration and length which helps our busy patients and those patients from the north. The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation. As long as you have not sustained at least 85% nerve damage there is hope! Doctors Christenson and Fifarek, at Pivotal Health Physical Medicine will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $47 This neuropathy severity examination will consist of a detailed sensory evaluation, extensive peripheral vascular testing, and a detailed analysis of the findings of your neuropathy. Doctors Christenson and Fifarek are offering this neuropathy severity examination from now until Thursday January 12, 2017 and is available for the first 27 callers Note: Appointments are very limited. Call 941-697-3001 to make an appointment with Doctors Christenson and Fifarek to determine if your debilitating conditon of peripheral neuropathy can be conquered. We are located at 12479 S.

FROM PAGE ONEIf youÂre planning to celebrate the start of spring, donÂt do it with a bon“re, weather experts warn. Warm and dry weather will promote elevated risk of “re danger in the afternoons this week, according to the National Weather Service. NWS Meteorologist Richard Rude said red ”ag warnings issued in Charlotte, Sarasota and DeSoto counties on Sunday were mainly for forest people and county parks not to burn “res, but Âpeople should avoid or be very careful with any kind of outdoor “res.ÂŽ Spokeswoman Stephanie Tuten of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said other precautions include these three steps: € Create a clean, “reresistant space around the home. € Make a family evacuation plan. € Evacuate early when wild“re is near. Tuten also reminded residents to never burn on windy days; keep a water source and suppression tools on hand when burning yard debris; never leave a “re or outdoor grill unattended; and avoid parking vehicles on dry grass. Southwest Florida has been in moderate drought due to lack of rain in the winter months. Though the “re weather is only expected to persist until the latter half of the week, Southwest Florida is expected to remain in moderate drought through the end of May, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. Some possible impacts of moderate drought are damage to crops, streams or wells running low, and voluntary water restrictions. At severe drought, crop and pasture losses, water shortages and water restrictions are possible. Although the saying goes, ÂApril showers bring May ”owers,ÂŽ Southwest Floridians will likely have to wait longer than that to see some relief from the moderate drought. ÂI would say rainfall might creep up a little bit, but not signi“cantly,ÂŽ Rude said. ÂWe donÂt really start getting a lot of rain until the end of May or early June.ÂŽ The forecast shows a 20 percent chance of showers on Thursday and Friday, but mostly sunny with no rain the rest of the work week. Highs today are in the mid 70s with overnight lows in the lower 50s. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the daytime highs warm up to the upper 70s with overnight lows in the mid to upper 50s. By Thursday, highs are in the lower 80s with overnight lows in the lower 60s. On Friday, highs are around 80 with overnight lows in the lower 60s. Generally, during the spring, highs are around 80 with overnight lows in the upper 50s, Rude said.

He didnÂt believe me. He said he didnÂt like my attitude and may have to quit taking the newspaper. He said he is “ne with blue-collar types moving into Murdock Village „ ÂthatÂs in a commercial area, I donÂt care what they build there,ÂŽ he said. This fella had been on the phone with corporations in Wisconsin and New Jersey that he thought had a hand in planning the new apartment complex. He was furious about it. I fear there are too many others who would be happy if Charlotte County was one, big gated community. The not-in-my-backyard mentality that has been quiet for so long continues to be an underlying roadblock to progress in Charlotte County. Any business that has tried to hire folks from outside the area knows how dif“cult it is to “nd attractive, affordable housing here. And the word ÂaffordableÂŽ should not set off alarms. Affordable means rent that is, at least, less than 50 percent of your income. We are losing bright, talented young people who cannot afford to work for Charlotte County wages and pay Charlotte County housing prices. The county has gained about 20,000 new people in the past 10 years but lost 2,000 school children. What does that tell you? It tells me we are attracting retirees and not families. DonÂt get me wrong. We love retirees. We would like this to be the best place in Florida to retire. Some say it already is. But there has to be a balance. If our economy is to survive and thrive, we have to have workingclass families. We need young people with fresh ideas who want to grow up here and raise their families here. I hope folks like the fella who called me can understand this. DonÂt let the word ÂaffordableÂŽ or ÂworkforceÂŽ drive you to hysterics when it comes to housing. The NIMBYs have a big voice „ because they are active, mostly retired and have the time and energy to make their feelings known. They have more opportunity to attend commission meetings and write letters to the editor because they are not raising a family and working every day. But there was a time in their life, I bet, when they had less time. When they had to worry about if their kids were in good schools. When they had to worry about the rent or raising a down payment for a home. I hope they remember that time in their life with fondness and have compassion for those who are traveling the same path now. John Hackworth is commentary editor of the Sun newspapers.

Lee Executive editor „ Jim Gouvellis Editorial page editor „ Stephen Baumann Commentary Editor „ John Hackworth V IEWPOINTAmericans slaves to health insurance Trump has no use for truth Sheri wrong, and we do care Red tide just about ruined trip Social Security not an entitlementEditor: When itÂs all said and done, at the end of the day itÂs all about health insurance. Schools canÂt afford teachers or bus drivers; the county canÂt afford employees; employees canÂt afford retirement; homeowners canÂt afford to pay the insurance with taxes and upkeep; businesses cannot survive with the demand put on them by insurance. We, once a free people, are being dictated to by insurance. We give them all our money through health insurance and retirement plans, only to “nd you will never be able to stop paying for this false sense of security. ItÂs making the average man desperately poor and dependent. As greed plays on, we play along with them, watching our world spiral downward. Bottom line is, we cannot afford insurance any more. Bottom line, we have allowed this monopoly to go on for too long. Where are the veterans of this country? Where is the unity when it comes to standing up as men who once knew the country they served? We the people have allowed these divisions of the American people, by insurance. Veterans differ from disabled, children of the poor, elderly from the everyday worker, prisoners better off than citizens, and immigrants all having the same needs. We all need to soldier up and care for all in the same digni“ed manner.Don Monroe Port CharlotteEditor: The Charlotte SunÂs March 14 front page story on fake news was a welcome attempt to explain the insanity we are seeing in some of todayÂs news. Unfortunately, in its attempt to be even-handed, the Sun did not go far enough to expose the Trump administrationÂs authoritarian intentions. Editor: Thank you for describing Sheriff PrummelÂs policy on disclosing the names of deputies involved in shooting deaths. I agree with the editor that PrummelÂs policy seems misguided and I disagree with the sheriffÂs summary dismissal of your questioning and his rationale that, ÂNo one really cares about this stuff but the media.ÂŽ We do care about Âthis stuff,ÂŽ Sheriff Prummel, and itÂs a re”ection on your leadership. In addition, please follow up with more information on the Punta Gorda police of“cer who used his Taser on a 91-year-old man with dementia, undergoing action under the Baker Act. In this case, Of“cer Justin Kleiver was found to have violated department policies. What disciplinary action will he receive? How about Police Chief Tom Lewis leadership? What Editor: More than just Âred tideÂŽ? Recently I returned from “ve weeks of sun and surf on Manasota Key. What a lovely room I had with views of the sunset. The people were friendly. Floridians are good people, I surmised. My daily routine was: morning yoga on the beach, a noon swim, an afternoon bike ride and an evening stroll on the beach. What a marvelous place to live I thought, until I started to smell something I could only describe as gunpowder „ a dry, burning, acid smell; even the Gulf water smelled dank. As the odor Editor: Social Security was introduced in 1935 to protect seniors who at the time were a third below the poverty level. Today there are 1 in 10 str below the poverty level. In 1965 Medicare was introduced for those 65 and older. Both of these initiatives were rejected by the Republican Party. However if you were to ask the American voter should we take these away, the majority would say no. Unfortunately these programs are seen by some as socialistic programs that give support to lazy people. Of course that position is so far from the truth. America and its people are better off because of these programs. The Democrat party that passed these programs unfortunately lost their majorities to the Republicans who saw the programs as major entitlements and government giveaways. They believed if you allow the free market to work, all these people would be protected. Just think of how America would look if we had allowed the free market to cover Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. So here we are at another crossroads for America. Do we get rid of the ACA and Medicaid and replace it with a free market solution in which the companies that make a pro“t will make life or death decisions for all of us? If we give more tax breaks to companies and the wealthy they will look after those people at the lower end of our society. How is that working out? Republicans, beware of 2018.George Baillie North Port.Records law issue resolved Circling in on traffic safetyWeÂre all in on laws that safeguard the free access of citizens to government records. But what about the random wiseguys who make a cottage industry out of their ability to trip up local clerks and pursue lawsuits, perhaps for personal gains? ItÂs a rare occurrence, but it happens. In recent years, one particularly zealous government ÂwatchdogÂŽ with a grudge has worked with a lawyer to “le 400 records requests and 16 lawsuits against the town of Gulf Stream, according to U.S. News & World Report. Eventually, this seemed a form of harassment, if not extortion. The extra workload got so bad two clerks quit. Baloney. A bill “led this year by Sen. Greg Steube, R-Sarasota, was designed to prevent these shenanigans „ the exploitation of good law for personal gain or payback. At “rst, Steube ran into strong opposition from public access advocates who feared broad application would dampen citizens legitimate openrecords requests. But Steube was open to compromise. And, as a story by Sun staffer Jonathan Scholles noted last week, the effort was successful. Working with various advocacy groups, the Senate Judiciary Committee last week revised the bill to a point it satis“ed the concerns of groups like both the Florida League of Cities and the Florida First Amendment Foundation. It passed the committee unanimously and won the endorsement of Foundation President Barbara Peterson, who told Scholles, ÂWeÂre very much in favor of the bill as amended.ÂŽ No small accomplishment. It looks like a case where compromise will serve the public interest.You remember DriverÂs Ed. Ten-and-two on the steering wheel. Mirror. Blinker. Accelerate into traf“c. Check the blind spot. Three-point turns. Parallel parking. (Arrrgh!) Likely, though, there was nothing on roundabouts. Unless you grew up near ÂrotariesÂŽ in Massachusetts, or ÂislandsÂŽ in the English Midlands, or ÂrotundasÂŽ in the Philippines. Roundabouts, rotaries, traf“c circles are foreign con“gurations to American motorists. Like speaking to the Irish: same language, but occasionally dif“cult to comprehend. We stop and go at traf“c lights (a lot, unfortunately). We donÂt circle well, as a whole. Years ago, Sarasota County of“cials faced a dilemma at the fast-growing intersection of East Venice Avenue and Jacaranda Boulevard, close to Interstate 75. More homes and businesses were coming; traf“c projections demanded a larger, upgraded intersection. Typically, this means more turning lanes and more traf“c lights. It also means more traf“c stacked up and idling for longer periods at the intersection. Instead, Sarasota County commissioners chose an alternative: A roundabout would slow everyone down a bit but keep traf“c circulating. Or not. As initially constructed, the Jacaranda roundabout was confusing. Fender-benders were unusually commonplace. The roundabout quickly gained a reputation as a ÂnightmareÂŽ intersection. The public was not pleased. So the county redid the roundabout. Then decided to redo it again. And now, theyÂre offering DriverÂs Ed. On Wednesday, March 22, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., the county and state Department of Transportation will host a public workshop at Woodmere Park in Venice to explain the newest roundabout con“guration. TheyÂll answer questions. TheyÂll show an instructional video. ÂAttendees will have an opportunity for hands-on participation,ÂŽ a press release said. WeÂre hoping it will be something like a video game. Fun. The new roundabout will be completed in early summer. Third time aroundÂs a charm? Clearly, Trump seeks to be the sole source of ÂtruthÂŽ in America. To do this he is working hard to delegitimize our long-standing institutions. Thus, Trump attacks our judicial system, our courts, and individual jurists, which he terms Âsocalled judgesÂŽ because they ruled against his unconstitutional travel ban. He attacks the intelligence community, accusing them in tweets of acting like Nazis because they question his campaignÂs illegal relations with Russian of“cials. Ever the narcissist, Trump dismisses polls that show him in a negative light but extols those that cast him positively. Of course, TrumpÂs most serious assault on truth is demonstrated by his claim that the American news media is Âour enemy.ÂŽ By this he means those media outlets that question his policy ”ip-”ops, his many con”icts of interests or his falsehoods. He even undermines the electoral system that put him in the White House by baselessly claiming millions voted illegally? Walter Cronkite is dead but we Americans know the truth when we hear it „ and it is not coming out of Donald TrumpÂs mouth.Tom Collelo Punta Gordabecame worse, my breath started catching in my throat, and I felt as though I was gagging. My bodyÂs alarm system went off, my blood pressure spiked and the headaches started. Something was seriously wrong, but what? Undoubtedly it was in the air my lungs were “lling up with. This cannot be good for any living organism I thought. ÂItÂs just red tide,ÂŽ people said, Âit will go away.ÂŽ I waited for it to go away, but it didnÂt. Some days were so bad that the morning beach yoga was canceled. Dead “sh were everywhere. Other days people adjusted by wearing scarves over their nose and mouth. The whole situation became surreal. IÂm back in Pennsylvania now. I can breathe deeply again. I hope the Âred tideÂŽ is gone. Yet somehow, I feel the Gulf of Mexico is beyond its saturation point, and sadly, I believe mankind is to blame.Margaret Rose Hope Mechanicsburg, PA does the recommended discipline entail?

The Sun /Monday, March 20, 2017 www.yoursun.com E/N/C Our Town Page 9 VIEWPOINTThis week, the Senate Judiciary Committee will question Neil Gorsuch about the judiciaryÂs role. Herewith some pertinent questions: € LincolnÂs greatness began with his recoil from the 1854 KansasNebraska Act, which empowered residents of those territories to decide whether to have slavery. The actÂs premise was that Âpopular sovereigntyÂŽ „ majorities rights „ is the essence of the American project. Is it, or is liberty? € Justice Robert Jackson wrote, ÂThe very purpose of a Bill of Rights was to ƒ place (certain subjects) beyond the reach of majorities.ÂŽ Was that not also the purpose of the 14th AmendmentÂs Privileges and Immunities Clause? It says: ÂNo state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.ÂŽ Was this amendmentÂs purpose to ensure that the natural rights of all citizens would be protected from abridgement by their states? € If so, was the court wrong in the 1873 Slaughterhouse Cases? It essentially erased the Privileges and Immunities Clause, holding that it did not secure natural rights (e.g., the right to enter contracts and earn a living), for the protection of which, the Declaration of Independence says, governments are instituted. € Chief Justice John Roberts says the doctrine of stare decisis „ previous court decisions are owed respect „ is not an Âinexorable command.ÂŽ The ruling in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), upholding racial segregation in separate but equal facilities, has been undone. Should the Slaughterhouse Cases ruling be revisited? € The court, without warrant from the ConstitutionÂs text or history, has divided Americans liberties between those it deems Âfundamental,ÂŽ such as speech and association, and others, many pertaining to economic activity and the right to earn a living, that are inferior. Abridgements of the latter have been given less exacting judicial scrutiny. The court calls this Ârational basisÂŽ scrutiny; it should be called Âconceivable basisÂŽ scrutiny. If a legislature asserts, or the court can imagine, a rational basis for the abridgement, it stands. Do you think judges should decide which liberties to protect or neglect? Should courts examine evidence of whether economic regulations are related to public health and safety or merely reflect rent seeking by economic interests? € The Ninth Amendment says: ÂThe enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.ÂŽ Robert Bork said this is akin to an ÂinkblotÂŽ on the Constitution that judges should ignore. Do you agree? How can judges be faithful to this amendment? Was Madison correct that it should dispose us against a latitudinarian interpretation of Congress powers? Is the Ninth Amendment pertinent to, say, the right to earn a living free from unreasonable licensure requirements or other barriers to entry into an occupation? € Other than a law that abridges a liberty enumerated in the Bill of Rights, are there limits to Congress power over interstate commerce? € The Fifth Amendment says no property shall be taken Âfor public useÂŽ without just compensation. In the 2005 Kelo case, the court upheld a cityÂs seizure of private property not to facilitate construction of a public structure or to cure blight, but for the Âpublic useÂŽ of transferring it to a wealthier private interest that would pay more taxes. Did the court err? € Madison worried that Congress would draw Âall power into its impetuous vortex.ÂŽ For many decades, however, our centrifugal Congress has been spinning off essentially legislative powers, delegating them to presidents and executive agencies. The Constitution says, ÂAll legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress.ÂŽ Should the court enforce limits to Congress power to delegate its powers? € Citizens United held that unions and corporations, particularly incorporated nonprofit advocacy groups, can engage in unregulated spending that is not coordinated with candidates or campaigns. Was the court correct that Americans do not forfeit their First Amendment rights when they come together in incorporated entities to speak collectively? € Is it constitutional for Congress, by regulating political spending, to control the quantity and timing of political speech? € You commendably believe that judges should adhere to the Âoriginal public meaningÂŽ of the ConstitutionÂs text. Would you feel bound to follow a previous court decision that did not evaluate evidence of original meaning and was, in your view, in conflict with it? If not, would you be elevating the views of judges over those of the Framers? € Oliver Wendell Holmes, a deferential, majoritarian jurist, said: ÂIf my fellow citizens want to go to Hell I will help them. ItÂs my job.ÂŽ Discuss. George WillÂs email address is georgewill@ washpost.com.Some constitutional questions for Judge Gorsuch George Will I am not a big fan of the death penalty. I think having condemned inmates spend 20 years or more on death row while their appeals play out thwarts the argument that is a deterrent. Inmate Douglas R. Meeks, for example, has been awaiting execution since March 21, 1975. He is one of 16 inmates who have been on FloridaÂs death row since the 1970s. And keeping inmates locked up 23 hours a day in a cramped cell with no air conditioning for the entire time theyÂre awaiting execution is borderline inhumane. By the way, IÂll concede that the people on death row committed inhumane acts in the first place. Having said that, State Attorney Aramis Ayala in Orlando was wrong on multiple levels when she announced she wouldnÂt seek the death penalty against Markeith Loyd, who is accused of killing Police Lt. Debra Clayton and his pregnant ex-girlfriend. Gov. Rick Scott did the right thing Thursday with his order that took the case away from Ayala and gave it to another state attorney who will pursue the death penalty if Loyd is found guilty. In a statement, Scott said: ÂI want to be very clear, Lt. Debra Clayton was executed while she was laying on the ground fighting for her life. She was killed by an evil murderer who did not think twice about senselessly ending her life.ÂŽ Ayala referenced several of the factors I mentioned as a reason for not seeking the death penalty in this emotionally charged case. The trouble is, it is her job to follow the law „ not make it. If this were a 50/50 decision under existing law, then yes, she could decide not to go for death. But itÂs not even close. If weÂre going to have the death penalty, then cop killers go to the head of the list. It is the duty of people in AyalaÂs position to prosecute those offenses to the full extent of the law. There are valid reasons lawmakers should consider abolishing the death penalty, but thatÂs their call. Death penalty opponents praised Ayala, but that missed the point. What they should be doing is bringing public pressure on legislators. Just so weÂre clear, they also should pick a better case to make their point than one involving the murder of a police officer. Ayala made history in January when she was sworn in as FloridaÂs first African-American State Attorney. She made history this time for a different reason. She may not like the death penalty, but itÂs part of the job.

Our Town Page 10 E/N/C www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWSFormer houseplants from the north can often “nd their way outside in our landscapes here in Southwest Florida. Once of those is the Dracaena Re”exa which is considered an ornamental evergreen multi-stemmed shrub sometimes obtaining small tree size. There are many cultivars of re”exed dracaena available, but perhaps one of the most eye-catching type is called song of India. This variety is beautifully variegated and brings a tropical ”air to the landscape. To start, the song of India is a bit cold sensitive and will not appreciate temperatures below 34 degrees Fahrenheit. As such, it is best to grow this plant in the warmer areas of Charlotte County or in identi“ed microclimates. Otherwise, be prepared to cover it for protection or have it in a container that can be moved under indoors when needed. It does make a great patio, lanai or indoor plant in a large container. The song of India can grow unpruned to over 8 feet tall with irregular, multi-stemmed branches and somewhat slow growth. Each leaf is 4 to 6 inches long with interesting variegation. Young leaves start out green with distinct yellow margins. As the leaves age, the darker green portion becomes lighter and the margins blend in with a creamy color and more stripes. The leaves are arranged in an attractive spiral pattern up the stem. As the leaves age out and drop, the stem is bare and patterned with the remains of the leaf scars. At maturity, the song of India will actually produce a panicle of ”owers consisting of small green to yellow, almost inconspicuous blossoms. For a slightly different color pattern, try song of Jamaica, a cultivar with stripes of darker and lighter green variegation. If used in a formal tropical landscape, select a site in a part-sun to bright “ltered light location not exposed to salty conditions „ this plant is not salt-tolerant. As a container grown plant, step it up into continuously larger pots as it grows, using a sterile potting medium with good drainage. Larger containers can even be put on platforms with wheels for easy moving. Propagation is very easy using cuttings. Cuttings are a great way to share this plant with friends as a pass-along plant. The song of India can be considered pestfree and a very sustainable plant. When you see one, you will want one. For more information on all types of plants suitable for both landscapes and containers, please call our Master Gardener volunteers on the Plant Lifeline on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at 941-764-4340 for gardening help and insight into their role as an extension volunteer.

Our Town Page 14 E/N/C www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWSPilot had more combat time with drone than 20 years in Air Force(EditorÂs note: Part 1, about Ian MilneÂs earlier Air Force career, ran in last MondayÂs Sun.) In 2010, 17 years after Lt. Col. Ian Milne of Burnt Store Isles retired from two decades of ”ying the hottest “ghter bombers in the U.S. Air ForceÂs arsenal, he was recruited by the military to retrain as the pilot of a Predator Drone during the War on Terror in the Middle East. He jumped at the opportunity. The General Atomics MQ-1 Predator is one of the Air ForceÂs newest lethal weapons. It carries an array of secret surveillance weapons and is equipped with a couple of Hell“re missiles speci“cally designed to obliterated enemy buildings, cars and individuals with the push of a button by an operator thousands of miles away in the U.S. Milne became the man with his “nger on the trigger of a Predator. He ”ew missions in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya as a member of the 18th Reconnaissance Squadron. He doesnÂt talk about his combat mission with the drone. ÂI saw more combat in the three years I ”ew drones than I did ”ying jet “ghters for 20 years in the Air Force,ÂŽ the 65-year-old retired pilot said. ÂIt was very interesting ”ying the Predator. It was a handful for me even though I had ”own “ghter planes for years. ÂThe crew for a Predator is a pilot, censor operator and a mission intelligence coordinator. The pilot and the censor operator sit in a room a little bigger than this one with a battery of computers on the wall. They monitor eight TV screens while typing on three keyboards in front of them.ÂŽ They worked out of Creech Air Force Base in Nevada. All the website for the facility says about the base is: ÂThey are engaged in daily Overseas Contingency Operations of remotely piloted aircraft systems which ”y missions across the globe.ÂŽ MilneÂs job was to sit behind a computer keyboard for hours at a time paying attention to TV screens showing in real time what enemy combatants were doing on the ground thousands of miles away during the ongoing War on Terror in the Middle East. He and his censor operator are given a facts sheet and coordinates of a speci“c target of interest they are to check out with their Predator. ÂWeÂd ”y our drone to the target. Then we would set up a circular ”ight path around the target and spend a lot of time looking at what was going on on the ground,ÂŽ he explained. ÂWeÂd establish a dossier on the people moving around on the ground. At the same time that IÂm ”ying my Predator at 18,000 feet over the target our helicopters may be circling at 3,000 feet and a C-130 gun ship could be ”ying over the target too. High above it all our “ghters could be circling at 20,000 feet. ÂIf they decided to take out a target, there are several ways for them to proceed. ÂThey can tell us to use our Hell“re missile on board the Predator. Or they can bring in the C-130 with its Gatling guns or use ground troops that ”y to the target in helicopters. They can also call in our “ghter bombers to do the job.ÂŽ Who makes the decision to attack the target or not? ÂThat decision is made by headquarters back in Tampa at MacDill Air Force Base. They have a monitor just like I have. They can watch whatÂs happening on the ground over there in real time. The decision is made by the battle staff at Central Command headquarters.ÂŽ One of the toughest things about ”ying a Predator in combat in the Middle East is getting used to the 24-hour daily operation. At times, Milne would have to sleep during the day so he could be behind his monitors all night long. When itÂs dark in the U.S., itÂs daylight in Afghanistan. He of“cially retired from the Predator Drone program in 2013. Milne and his wife, Maggie, moved to Punta Gorda from St. Petersburg that same year. His daughter, Jody, lives with her family in San Antonio, Texas. Maggie has a son and daughter, George and Andrea, who live in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They have two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren who also live in the WinstonSalem area.PART II OF II KNOW A VETERAN?Don MooreÂs stories are a part of the Veterans History Project through the Library of Congress.

The Sun /Monday, March 20, 2017 www.yoursun.com E/N/C Our Town Page 15 LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWSVENICE „ Harry Truman, in the embodiment of actor Jack Rabito, will be giving Âem hell during a play next week. State College of Florida, Venice, hosts the one-man play, ÂGive Âem Hell, HarryÂŽ from 11 a.m.-noon March 29 in Building 800 Shelby Room, at the campus at 8000 S. Tamiami Trail. Rabito said he received a copy of a script from his son in Chicago and he worked on it for two years before he premiered his ÂGive Âem Hell, HarryÂŽ show November 2011. ÂIt intrigued me,ÂŽ Rabito said. Rabito did the show and then condensed it into a one-hour format that showed in Port Charlotte in the Charlotte Players Theatre. He has performed about 50 shows in six years and said heÂs enjoyed every minute of it. He said he wears the costume, walks in that way and leaves that way. ÂThe students seem to love it,ÂŽ Rabito said. Rabito said people wish Truman was running for the presidency again and he was one of the last honest politicians. He was the president of the people. ÂHeÂs one of those honest guys,ÂŽ Rabito said. When asked why Rabito does the play he said that when people hear the play, they hear the values and morals missing today. ÂMy favorite part of the play is when itÂs talking about the train campaign where Truman talks to millions of people on the back of the train,ÂŽ Rabito said. This event went down in history as the ÂWhistle Stop Campaign.ÂŽ Rabito said it makes him realize what you can do as president of the United States, when playing the part, to keep a moral bearing, and keep your head right. Rabito said itÂs an honor to represent Truman. ÂAlways do what you think is right: You will gratify some and astonish the rest,ÂŽ Rabito said, representing TrumanÂs famous quote. The play is sponsored by the History and Political Science Club. It is free and open to the public. Seating will be “rst come, “rst served, SCF-Venice of“cials said. For more information, contact club adviser Michael Rogers at 941-408-1485 or rogersm@scf.edu.ÂGive Âem Hell, Harry set for SCF-VeniceBy MICHELLE VALKOVSUN CORRESPONDENT PHOTO PROVIDEDActor Jack Rabito portrays President Harry Truman in ÂGive Âem Hell, HarryÂŽ from 11 a.m. to noon March 29 at SCF Venice. THESE STATEMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN EVALUATED BY THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED TO DIAGNOSE, TREAT, CURE OR PREVENT ANY DISEASE. RESULTS MAY VARY FROM PERSON TO PERSON. NO INDIVIDUAL RESULT SHOULD BE SEEN AS TYPICAL. BOSTON „ Rick Healy, a retired engineer from Massachusetts, was forced into a wheelchair because of his diabetes and nerve pain that went with it. But if you met Rick today, youÂd see heÂs out of his chair and feeling great! No burning. No numbness. Nothing. His doctor swears itÂs a miracle. But Rick knows the real secret.ÂI WAS FORCED INTO A WHEELCHAIRÂŽWhen asked about life before his amazing recovery from neuropathy, Mr. Healy described his days as ÂunbearableÂŽ and ÂdepressingÂŽ. ÂOn my best day I still needed a cane. And on my worst days I couldnÂt get out of bed! I was a prisoner to the pain in my legs and feet. It was terrible. I couldnÂt travel. I couldnÂt play golf. I couldnÂt do much of anything. Going up and down stairs or getting into my car was a nightmare...ÂŽ ÂSometimes it felt like I was walking on burning glass. Other times I couldnÂt even feel my feet and would fall. ThatÂs when the doctors recommended a wheelchairÂŽ. RESTLESS NIGHTSThe neuropathy had caused other issues, too. Rick revealed that his discomfort became so bad that he couldnÂt get more than 3-4 hours of sleep a night. ÂThe nights were hard. I was exhausted but my legs were restless. I couldnÂt get comfortable. And so most nights IÂd just lie there thinking of what was going to happen to me...absolutely terri“ ed that IÂd be living like this for the rest of my lifeÂŽ. STUNNING RELIEF ARRIVESUnlike the millions who suffer alone, Rick was lucky enough to have the support of his wife, Marie. A retired market researcher for the supplement industry, she couldnÂt bear to see Rick hurt any longer and started searching the web for an answer. She started by scouring scienti“ c sites she used to read years ago and eventually landed on an interesting new article. A small group of chemists, researchers, and doctors excited about a new pill thatÂs helped even the most serious cases of neuropathy and nerve damage. BURNING, TINGLING, AND NUMBNESS...GONEAfter reading all about the amazing success people were having with NeuroQuell the natural nerve relief pill made speci“ cally for people with neuropathy (especially from diabetes), she decided to get it for Rick to try. And the results were striking. In just a few short weeks, the excruciating leg and foot pain that had plagued him for years disappeared and didnÂt come back. ÂI knew it was working when I woke up one morning without numbness or burning in my legs...I havenÂt experienced that in years! It was unlike anything IÂve tried before. And today my nerve problems are gone. I canÂt thank my wife enough. NeuroQuell has given me my life back.ÂŽEXTRAORDINARY RESULTSToday tens of thousands of people use NeuroQuell and regularly report sensational results. Experts are scratching their heads in disbelief. ÂWe are absolutely stunned by the results. People whoÂve used canes and walkers for years no longer need them. People who were in terrible discomfort now feel relief,ÂŽ said one industry expert. ÂBut in the end, it all comes down to research and NeuroQuell has that. Numerous studies on its proprietary formula prove its remarkable ability to relieve neuropathy and over 30 other legs issues, too. And that number is growing fastÂŽ. REPAIRS AND RENEWS DAMAGED NERVESWhat makes NeuroQuell so effective? Experts believe it has to do with its amazing ability to repair and renew damaged nerves. Stunning new research from leading medical schools reveals that the origin of all nerve pain is caused by damaged nerves in your legs and feet that stream constant pain signals to your brain. And because these particular cells are incapable of regenerating on their own, you never get relief. ÂWhat most people donÂt know is that virtually all lower leg problems, including (diabetic) neuropathy, is brought on by damaged nerves that canÂt “ x themselves. ItÂs that simple,ÂŽ explains NeuroQuellÂs CEO.SPECIALIZED INGREDIENTS FOR LASTING RELIEFNeuroQuell works by supplying your body with twelve key nutrients that are vital to nerve repair. Damaged nerves in your legs and feet send ongoing pain signals to your brain, bringing on feelings of burning, tingling, and numbness that can last around-theclock. The nutrients in NeuroQuell including special B vitamins and Alpha Lipoic Acid, have the amazing ability to repair and regenerate damaged nerves, shutting off your pain at the source and making sure it never comes back. With new, healthier, and stronger nerves, your legs and feet will feel 10-20 years younger!SOLVES OVER 30 OTHER LEG AND FOOT ISSUESOne thing the makers of NeuroQuell want you to know is that you donÂt have to have neuropathy to bene“ t (even though NeuroQuell works amazing for this problem). ÂOur research con“ rms that nerve damage is the underlying cause of nearly every lower leg issues. And thatÂs why weÂre never surprised when people call in excited to tell us that their varicose veins, spider veins, restless legs, and several other leg issues are also goneÂŽ. GUARANTEED TO WORKNeuroQuell is the “ rst all natural supplement speci“ cally formulated to correct the underlying cause of your leg problems „ nerve damage. By combining twelve incredibly powerful nutrients proven to repair your nerves, NeuroQuell is guaranteed to reduce numbness and tingling in your legs and feet, Lessen painful burning sensations, support and strengthened nerves, arteries, and veins, relax restless legs, lighten heavy legs, and also improve your balance and coordination.WHERE TO GET NEUROQUELLA special hotline number and discounted pricing has been created for all FL residents.

Much like its baseball counterparts, CharlotteÂs softball team has been the most dominant team in the area through the first portion of the season. The Tarpons have won nine of their 11 games and feature a high-powered offense averaging eight runs per game, with six batters hitting over .350. Over in North Port, the Bobcats are proving theyÂre not the same team from a season ago. North Port has already won more games (8) than it did last year (6), largely thanks to starting pitchers Ashley Nelson and Liberty Pence, both of whom are freshmen. Port Charlotte has had its ups and downs due to errors and pitching, but is winning its district games with a 5-2 record. The offense has been there for the Pirates, led by Brittany FerrentinoÂs scorching average of .515, which is tops in the area. Seaaira Yiengst is right behind her hitting .474, leading the team with 11 RBI. For Lemon Bay, itÂs been a struggle through 11 games, going 4-7 overall but 1-0 in district. But behind the strong hitting of Bailey Grossenbacher and the emergence of freshman Christian Chandler, the Manta Rays are still focused on grabbing the No. 1 seed come district tournament time.THE TEAMSCHARLOTTE Season record: 9-2 (1-1 in District 7A-11) NORTH PORT Season record: 8-4 (1-1 in District 7A-11) PORT CHARLOTTE Season record: 5-6 (5-2 in District 6A-11) LEMON BAY Season record: 4-7 (1-0 in District 5A-12) NOTES COMING OF AGECharlotte senior Tiffany Dodson has been doing it with her bat and her arm so far this season. Her coming out party was against reigning Class 5A state champion Bishop Verot when she threw two-hit, complete-game shutout. SheÂs 4-0 as a starter with an area-best ERA of 1.32 while also tearing the skin off the softball, leading the team in RBI (13) and home runs (2) while hitting .414. FRESH ARMSA pair of North Port freshmen have been stifling opposing hitters this season. Ashley Nelson and Liberty Pence both have ERAs under 2.00, helping the Bobcats get off to an 8-2 start before dropping their last two games before spring break. Nelson has posted a 1.36 ERA in 41 innings pitched while Pence is throwing a 1.75 in 28 innings. TRENDING UPPort Charlotte began the season with five losses before winning five of six heading into spring break. Seaaira Yiengst was a key contributor as a freshman in 2016 and that hasnÂt changed in 2017. Despite fighting through injury, she leads the area with 46 strikeouts, 16 more than the secondmost in the area, and has helped propel the Pirates in their recent streak. MUCHNEEDED BREAKLemon Bay coach Kim Pinkham said her team should be more refreshed coming back from spring break this week. The Manta Rays won their first three games of the season before losing seven straight heading into their district opener against Lake Placid on March 10. That game ended the skid, a 6-2 win that Pinkham hopes springs her team in the right direction as it nears April.STATISTICSHITTING (minimum 10 at-bats) Player School H AB AVG Brittany Ferrentino Port Charlotte 17 33 .515 Seaaira Yiengst Port Charlotte 9 19 .474 Kaylee Brannon Charlotte 16 34 .471 Bailey Grossenbacher Lemon Bay 15 32 .469 Kylie Murray North Port 20 44 .454 Hayley Cabral Charlotte 12 27 .444 Jaiden Dabney Port Charlotte 16 37 .432 Aimee Holt Lemon Bay 13 31 .419 Abby Hayes Charlotte 15 36 .417 Skylar Poitras North Port 10 24 .416 Tiffany Dodson Charlotte 12 29 .414 Ashley Nelson North Port 14 34 .411 Marissa Stack Charlotte 11 30 .367 Alyssa Opsahl Charlotte 10 28 .357 Taylor Kirkus 12 34 Charlotte .353 Taylor Innello Port Charlotte 8 23 .348 Alyssa Allred Port Charlotte 7 21 .333 Christain Chandler Lemon Bay 12 36 .333 Karlie Sweiderk Lemon Bay 8 25 .320 Kaitlyn Hopper Charlotte 7 22 .318 HOME RUNS 3: Brianna Mitchell North Port. 2: Tiffany Dodson Charlotte. 1: Kaylee Brannon Charlotte, Taylor Kirkus Charlotte, Brooke Kvaternick Lemon Bay, Alyssa Opsahl Charlotte, Cortney Senna North Port, Seaaria Yiengst Port Charlotte.

Our Town Page 24 E/N/C www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 Greetings, from FranIslandWalk resident crafts cards, leads unique lifeISLANDWALK „ Fran Vanderbeek has had a wonderful life, and sheÂll be the first one to say it. SheÂs had a life full of adventures, from traveling around Europe to embarking on writing her autobiography, ÂThe Life of a FarmerÂs Daughter,ÂŽ and even growing up with a family pony in the yard. The youngest of 12 children, her lineage in America dates back to a few distant relatives traveling to the U.S. on the Mayflower. ÂI had a great life „ we were always dancing,ÂŽ Vanderbeek said, referring to her late husband. Dancing was their passion, and even before she met him, she was sneaking out to dance. ÂI used to disconnect the speedometer in the car and drive to the USO to dance, until my parents caught on,ÂŽ she said. After her husband passed away in 2012 „ just three weeks after they were able to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary together „ she decided to start looking for a place to live in Florida from South Carolina. SheÂs originally from New Jersey. ÂWe kept coming back to IslandWalk,ÂŽ she said. ÂMy son and I came to see the models. We walked in and I said ÂThatÂs it. This is my home.ÂÂŽ After her husband passed, she found she had some extra time on her hands. ÂMy daughter-in-law is into scrapbooking, and had me attend a class at a scrapbooking store about making greeting cards out of cocktail napkins,ÂŽ she said. The cards she creates are intricate, and she crafts them to be 3-D, with the individual images popping off the page. The napkins Vanderbeek uses are 3-ply cocktail napkins, but the bottom two layers must be removed before beginning the process. Next, the 1-ply piece of the napkin is placed on a piece of paper, covered in Saran Wrap. That is then ironed with a piece of parchment on top. Since most cocktail napkins have identical patterns on them, one is used as the background and the other is used to create 3-D shapes. ÂThe cards are something different and people enjoy receiving them,ÂŽ Vanderbeek said. Each card has a personalized note on the inside, whether it be for sympathy, a birthday or anniversary. Soon, IslandWalk residents will be able to purchase the cards for themselves. There is a craft show set for March 25 at the IslandWalk event center, from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., and Vanderbeek will have a table there. Vanderbeek has packed a lot into her life so far, and it doesnÂt look like sheÂs slowing down anytime soon. ÂIÂve had a fantastic life,ÂŽ she said. ÂIÂm so blessed.ÂŽBy MADISON HEIDWEST VILLAGES SUN EDITOR SUN PHOTOS BY MADISON HEIDFran VanderbeekÂs cards are made from cocktail napkins, and jump from the page when looking at them.

Drugs to treat diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, a type of cancer and diabetes are among those with the greatest number of reports. Many of the drugs are for conditions that occur in 1% or less of the population, but several have seen increasing use. For years, the FDAÂs adverseevents system has been derided because of its largely voluntary nature „ only drug companies, not doctors or patients, are required to report problems. As a result, the system probably was capturing only a small percentage of cases. In recent years, the number of reports has been multiplying, prompting more independent researchers and drug companies to use the data as a way to detect safety problems, the Journal Sentineland MedPage Today found. But experts say the information still is largely untapped and „ if used more „ could become an important alarm that warns of dangerous drugs after they hit the market.The surge in reports could indicate a growing number of harmed patients or more vigilant reporting of adverse events, a goal of the FDA. Experts say both probably play a role. Twelve years ago, 206,000 reports of side eects from medications were “led with the FDA „ complaints as frivolous as ”atulence and as serious as death. By 2015, the most recent full year of data, the number had grown to 1.2 million.

The Scandinavian nation of 5million, known for its fjords, reindeer and ÂMidnight Sun,ÂŽ ranks No. 1 among 155 countries rated for happiness in a United Nations report Monday. It helps that Norway, which moved up from fourth place last year to dethrone Denmark, has oil wealth. That boosted the per-person annual income, as measured by economic output, to more than $100,000 „ nearly double that of the United States. It also helps that it has an unemployment rate slightly below the U.S. (4.7%) and low income inequality „ the gap between the richest and poor citizens is onethird as large as that in the U.S. Acold climate seems to correlate with happiness.

Wind pushed the ”ames in a wooded area west of BoulderÂs shopping and dining district, prompting authorities to order more than 1,000 residents to evacuate, The Associated Press reported. Authorities warned 2,200 more to be ready to leave, said Gabi Boerkircher of the Boulder Oce of Emergency Management (OEM). By early afternoon, the blaze, in the Sunshine Canyon area west of downtown Boulder, was 20% contained, The Denver Post reported, but winds were gusting. ÂWe are feeling pretty good about it right now,ÂŽ Boulder spokeswoman Barb Halpin told The Post ÂThe big question we have is the winds,ÂŽ which were gusting at 20 mph just before 1 p.m. MT. They were expected to rise to 40 mph. OEM said more than 1,000 homes had been evacuated since the “re was “rst reported around 2:30 a.m. Sunday. By midafternoon, 426 homes had been evacuated, with another 836 on a pre-evacuation list. The “re was believed to cover as much as 106 acres and was moving south toward downtown Boulder. On its Facebook page, OEM said no homes or other structures were immediately believed to have been lost. Six aircraft were dropping water and slurry, Halpin said. Resident Seth Frankelsaid he had packed up Âgenerations of thingsÂŽ that canÂt be replaced and was ready to go. He told AP that dead trees were combusting and sendingsmoke into the air less than a half-mile from his home.

Corrections & Clarifications Circuit in Denver has charmed senators from both parties in 72 courtesy visits. But his nomination Jan. 31 was destined for a “ght because of what happened within hours of ScaliaÂs unexpected death at a Texas ranch on Feb. 13, 2016. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell vowed the seat would remain vacant through the presidential election, a promise he kept despite ObamaÂs compromise nomination of Merrick Garland, 63, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and a relatively moderate jurist. Gorsuch also is burdened by the president who chose him „ one who promised to employ litmus tests on abortion and guns, who largely outsourced the initial nomination process to the conservative Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation, and who has attacked federal judges who ruled against him, both as a businessman and as president.The Denver native, who is married, has two daughters and loves the outdoors, remains likely to win con“rmation because of a procedural advantage. If he cannot win 60 votes needed to break an expected Democratic “libuster, Republicans can change Senate rules to eliminate the super-majority requirement for Supreme Court nominations, just as Democrats did in 2013 for lower courts and the executive branch.Still, this weekÂs hearings will help determine whether Gorsuch skates through the Senate in early April after a winning performance or limps to the “nish line after jousting with the committeeÂs nine Democrats. Will he criticize TrumpÂs attacks on the judicial branch or stick to his earlier, private assessment of Âdisheartening?ÂŽ Will he stick by his purely literal interpretation of the Constitution and federal laws or indicate ”exibility? Perhaps most important, will he answer questions about his legal philosophy and his views on past precedents or follow what conservative supporters who oppose such frankness refer to as the ÂGinsburg standard,ÂŽ after Justice Ruth Bader GinsburgÂs insistence on oering Âno forecasts, no hintsÂŽ in her 1993 con“rmation hearings?ÂMURDER BOARD SESSIONSTo prepare, Gorsuch hasnÂt just sweet-talked 72 senators. He has studied many of the more than 2,000 opinions that bear his name and familiarized himself with roughly two dozen areas of law likely to be addressed by the Senate Judiciary Committee. He has subjected himself to Âmurder boardsÂŽ „ several sessions of questioning by White House and Justice Department lawyers portraying the senators who will quiz him this week. Leonard Leo, the conservative Federalist Society executive vice president who has taken a leave of absence to help Gorsuch run the gauntlet, predicts Âa clash of visions about the role of the courtsÂŽ „ but without the degree of speci“city Democrats will demand. Gorsuch, he says, probably will stick close to the ÂGinsburg standardÂŽ even if asked about cases settled decades ago, such as Roe v. Wade which established abortion rights. ÂThe fact that something was decided in the past doesnÂt mean that you can talk about it,ÂŽ Leo says. ÂIf he starts to answer questions about policy, then heÂs opened the door to other questions about policy.ÂŽ While Gorsuch prepped, the 20-member committee and its sta have dug into his past, parsing his 68-page questionnaire, which arrived with 20 appendices, as well as about 175,000 pages of records produced by the Justice Department and the George W. Bush Presidential Library. The latest batch of documents arrived Friday. That lengthy paper trail will be in the background Monday when Gorsuch speaks in public for the “rst time since he appeared with his wife, Louise, in the East Room of the White House to accept TrumpÂs nomination. After sitting like a potted plantwhile Republican senators speak glowingly and Democrats skeptically of his record, heÂll deliver his long-awaited opening statement, marking the start of the “rst Supreme Court con“rmation hearing since Justice Elena KaganÂs debut in 2010. Then on days 2 and 3, Gorsuch will be a piata, subjected to several rounds of questions about his adherence to ÂoriginalismÂŽ and ÂtextualismÂŽ „ the doctrines of following the Constitution and statutes to the letter „ and his various opinions, dissents and concurrences issued since 2006. The “nal day is reserved for testimony from colleagues, opponents and interest groups on both sides. If things go according to plan for Republicans, the committee will vote on his nomination the “rst week of April and the full Senate a few days later. How he is con“rmed would be up to Democrats „ by getting the 60 votes, including eight from Democrats, needed to surmount a “libuster, or by forcing Republicans leaders to change the rules. One way or the other, he would be sworn in before the “nal oral arguments of the term in April „ and available to rehear any cases that emerged from the shorthanded court in 4-4 ties, as four cases did last term. Democratic senators and liberal interest groups hope for a different scenario. They are going all out to defeat Gorsuch despite his central-casting credentials and demeanor. In recent days, the nationÂs most prominent civil rights groups have come out against con“rmation, citing his rulings in favor of business and government interests over the Âlittle guy.ÂŽ ÂWe have concerns that he has anarrow view of rights that are protected by the Constitution, as well as a skeptical view about the importance of protecting those rights in the courtroom,ÂŽ the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law said in a 26page report. The NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund followed a day later with 70 pages, concluding that Gorsuch Âwould take a narrow view of „ if not armatively weaken „ the fundamental and hard-fought civil rights of African Americans and other historically marginalized communities.ÂŽFULL-COURT PRESSOn many hot-button issues of the day, GorsuchÂs record wonÂt oer much of a guidepost. His views on abortion, for instance, cannot be gleaned even from his 2006 treatise against euthanasia and assisted suicide. The judgeÂs most famous cases involved the craft store chain Hobby Lobby and the religious order Little Sisters of the Poor, which objected to the Obama administrationÂs rule that employers oer free insurance coverage for contraceptives. In both cases, he sided with the employers based on their religious beliefs.Conservative groups have spent close to $20 million to support the nomination „ one of the few moves Trump has made that unites them. They have produced an array of GorsuchÂs college classmates, his former law clerks, and even a handful of liberal appellate lawyers who sing his praises. Neal Katyal, former acting solicitor general in the Obama administration, will help introduce Gorsuch on Monday morning.Gorsuch is Âprecisely the kind of person youÂd expect a Republican administration to nominate,ÂŽ former U.S. solicitor general Paul Clement, who served in the George W. Bush administration, said Friday. Donald Verrilli, who served in the same capacity under Obama, said Gorsuch Âchecks all the boxes that you would want to check.ÂŽ One box that could provide “reworks at the hearings stems from the 13 months Gorsuch spent in 2005-06 as the top aide to the Justice DepartmentÂs third-ranking ocial „ a job that put him in the middle of the Bush administrationÂs war on terror, from the warrantless wiretapping of terrorism suspects to the treatment and trials of detainees. ÂI think you will see a retrial of the Bush war on terror,ÂŽ the Federalist SocietyÂs Leo says. ÂYouÂll see Democrats trying to revisit the policy battle.ÂŽGorsuchÂs nomination was sure to be a “ghtv CONTINUED FROM 1BNeil GorsuchÂs opening statement today kicks off the “rst Supreme Court con“rmation hearing since Justice Elena KaganÂs in 2010.of adverse event reports for a drug „ without establishing the denominator, the number of people using that drug. In its own analysis, the Journal Sentinel and MedPage Today found that among the 10 drugs that accounted for the most reports, seven carry Âblack boxÂŽ warnings, the FDAÂs most stringent alert for serious or potentially life-threatening side eects. The 10 drugs account for one of every “ve reports “led since 2013. Yet, none is on the top-10 list of most-prescribed drugs as determined by IMS Health, a drug market research “rm. ÂWe are concerned,ÂŽ says Michael Carome, deputy director of Public CitizenÂs Health Research Group. ÂIt re”ects that the FDA has allowed drugs to come to market without adequately ensuring safety.ÂŽ The FDA doesnÂt share that opinion. ÂItÂs not always necessary to wait and go through a traditional development program before making a drug available to patients,ÂŽ says Lyndsay Meyer, an FDA spokeswoman. She says speeding up drug approval and development goes hand-in-hand with strengthening the adverse-event reporting system. The agency has taken many steps to increase the quality and number of reports, she says. Couple those actions with increasing consumer participation in the system, she says, and itÂs hardly a surprise reports would rise so dramatically. ÂIn fact, we encourage health care providers and the public to report suspected adverse drug purposes. When it distributes the database, it attaches warnings that say the reports arenÂt evidence drugs caused the problems listed, that the data canÂt be used to estimate risk and that the information should not be used to compare drugs. In 2005, the Government Accountability Oce estimated the system captured only 1% to 10% of all adverse reactions. Despite the explosion in reports, that remains the most recent estimate of how many cases are caught by the system.STRENGTH IN NUMBERSThe increased volume of reports has researchers, insurance companies and even some pharmaceutical groups reimagining how the data can be used. ÂSheer numbers have some scienti“c weight,ÂŽ says Thomas Moore, senior scientist at the Institute for Safe Medication Practices, a non-pro“t watchdog group focused on drug safety. ÂIf 500 people report a problem, it is unlikely that they are all wrong.ÂŽ For all its warnings about the limitations of the system, the FDA itself has relied on the reports to guide its actions. Case in point: a patch used to treat migraine headaches. In September 2015, the Zecuity patch was allowed on the market after years of give-and-take with FDA ocials. The patch, which looks like a large armband, released a drug through the skin to “ght migraines. An early version failed to get approval after the FDA raised concerns that it could Âcause severe burns and permanent skin lesions.ÂŽ The patch was redesigned and tested on 58 people, none of whom reported problems. The FDA could have required more clinical testing but instead chose to approve the redesigned patch and rely on Âpostmarket surveillance.ÂŽ In other words, the safety of the product would be linked to reports of side eects. The FDA ordered Teva, the manufacturer, to report adverse events within 15 days of receiving any complaint. Nine months later there were hundreds of reports of blisters, burns, scars and pain. On June 2 of last year, the agency said it was Âinvestigating the risk of serious burns and permanent scarring.ÂŽ Aweek later, Teva voluntarily pulled the product. The company said it worked with the FDA to pinpoint a problem but noted that because the root cause was not identi“ed, the product remains o the market. Others say, however, that the voluntary and cumbersome nature of the system makes the value of the information limited. ÂAs a physician, I have tried to use it, and it is very, very clumsy,ÂŽ says Joseph Ross, an associate professor of medicine at Yale University School of Medicine. He says the system provides only a numerator „ the number events,ÂŽ she wrote in a statement. In 2015, the FDA started requiring companies to report events electronically instead of on paper. That led to an increase in less-serious events in the database and 300,000 additional reports „ the largest single-year jump in the programÂs nearly 20year history. Patients, too, have increasingly reported problems. In 2004, just 45,000 reports „ about 20% of all those “led „ originated with consumers. In 2013, for the “rst time, more reports originated with consumers than health professionals. By 2015, consumers accounted for 55% of all reports.A ÂVIRTUOUS CIRCLEÂBrian Overstreet runs Advera Health, which analyzes the database for insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies and other groups. He says consumers are increasingly likely to report cases as part of a Âvirtuous circle.ÂŽ Because the system has more reports, it gets more attention from the media and the public. Because it gets more attention, consumers are more likely to make reports, which in turn makes the system more complete. In some cases, companies have started embracing the once-derided FDA database. Denmark-based Lundbeck, which specializes in neurological drugs, used the data to “nd out what kind of side eects were most commonly reported within acertain class of drugs, says Ashleigh Duchene, a spokeswoman for the company. If a certain kind of side eect keeps cropping up, she says, the companyÂs researchers pay special attention to preventing that problem. ÂItÂs that R&D focus for us, seeing whatÂs out there,ÂŽ she says. John Fauber is a reporter for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel .Matthew Wynn is a reporter for MedPage Today.

ÂBy choosing to produce oil deliberately and investing the proceeds for the bene“t of future generations, Norway has protected itself from the volatile ups and downs of many other oil-rich economies,ÂŽ said John Helliwell, one of the authors of the report. Countries that achieved positive results have Âhigh levels of mutual trust, shared purpose, generosity and good governance,ÂŽ said Helliwell, a professor at the University of British Columbia. Happiness in the United States appears to be declining.

The Sun /Monday, March 20, 2017 www.yoursun.com Page 3 Jimmy Breslin, the iconic and Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist who mesmerized New Yorkers with simple but stirring prose for almost a half-century, died Sunday at his Manhattan home. Breslin, 88, had been ill with pneumonia but appeared to be improving Saturday, stepdaughter Emily Eldridge told USA TODAY. ÂItÂs the end of an era,ÂŽ Eldridge said. ÂHe was a force of nature. He was complicated, but he had a great life and a lot of fun.ÂŽ Breslin was working for the cityÂs tabloid Daily News when he won a Pulitzer in 1986 for commentary. He also authored several books, including the lovable, laughable and genuinely awful New York Mets of 1962 in his book CanÂt Anybody Here Play this Game? The Improbable Saga of the New York Mets First Year Breslin was born in Queens and attended Long Island University but did not graduate. He began his journalism career in the 1950s but didnÂt spare his profession from the biting commentary that often graced his columns. ÂMedia „ the plural of mediocrity,ÂŽ was among his sayings. Breslin told stories from the perspective of the common man. When President John Kennedy was killed in 1963, Breslin wrote about gravedigger Clifton Pollard, who was called in on a Sunday to bury Kennedy at Arlington National Cemetery. ÂOne of the last to serve John Fitzgerald Kennedy, who was the thirty-“fth President of this country, was a working man who earns $3.01 an hour and said it was an honor to dig the grave,ÂŽ Breslin wrote. David Richard Berkowitz, who killed six people and wounded seven others, wrote to Breslin. ÂJ.B., IÂm just dropping you a line to let you know that I appreciate your interest in those recent and horrendous .44 killings. I also want to tell you that I read your column daily and “nd it quite informative,ÂŽ the letter said in part. The Daily News published the letter, along with a Breslin column urging the ÂSon of SamÂŽ to turn himself in. Berkowitz didnÂt but was nabbed by police on Aug. 10, 1977. ÂHeÂs the only killer I ever knew who knew how to use a semicolon,ÂŽ Breslin quipped. The Pulitzer win pleased Breslin. But it didnÂt change his shoeleather-driven work ethic. On the night of Dec. 5, 1986, New York City police cornered shooting suspect Larry Davis in a high-rise public housing project in the Bronx, then and now one of New York CityÂs poorest areas. The cops wanted Davis. HeÂd shot and wounded six of their fellow ocers in a gunbattle weeks earlier. Breslin wanted the story. He showed up around dawn, near the wrap-up of a night-long siege. After the cops paraded Davis out, Breslin and other reporters went in.Breslin quickly located an apartment cops had used during the siege. Inviting himself in, Breslin asked the apartmentÂs residents for the details. And coee. ÂI donÂt know any other columnists, and I donÂt know what they do,ÂŽ Breslin once said. ÂAnd nobody does what I do, anyway.ÂŽ Contributing: Kevin McCoy and Adam Shell, USA TODAYÂThe end of an eraÂ: Legendary streetwise columnist Breslin dies at 88 in NYC John Bacon@jmbacon USA TODAY NEW YORK DAILY NEWS VIA GETTY IMAGESJimmy Breslin, shown in 2007, won the Pulitzer Prize for commentary. WASHINGTONAday before a high-stakes hearing, the leaders of the House Intelligence Committee said Sunday thereÂs no evidence to back President TrumpÂs claims that Barack Obama wiretapped him, though the Republican chairman said investigators are looking at other types of possible surveillance of Trump and his aides during last yearÂs campaign. ÂWe have a lot of surveillance activities in this country,ÂŽ said Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, speaking on Fox News Sunday The panelÂs ranking Democrat, Rep. Adam Schi of California, told NBCÂs Meet the Press that TrumpÂs wiretapping claims are Âpatently false, and the wrecking ball it created now has banged intoÂŽ U.S. allies, including Germany and Great Britain. ÂThis is just how the president does business,ÂŽ Schi told NBC. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said on Meet the Press that ÂI donÂt know the basis for President TrumpÂs assertion,ÂŽ and ÂI do believe he owes us that explanation.ÂŽ MondayÂs hearing features testimony from FBI Director James Comey, who has asked the Justice Department to publicly rebuke TrumpÂs claims against Obama. Schi said he expects Comey to also say there is no truth to TrumpÂs statements about Obama, and ÂI hope we can put an end to this wild goose chase.ÂŽ The House Intelligence Committee hearings also are looking into eorts by Russia to in”uence last yearÂs election by hacking Democratic ocials close to nominee Hillary Clinton, the subject of an ongoing investigation by the FBI. During his Fox News appearance, Nunes said he has seen no evidence of collusion between Trump associates and the Russians during the election. On NBC, Schi said that Âat the outset of the investigation, there was circumstantial evidence of collusion,ÂŽ as well as Âdirect evidence, I think, of deception.ÂŽ The committee hearing comes more than two weeks after Trump leveled his accusations against Obama in an early Saturday morning tweet storm. One tweet said: ÂTerrible! Just found out that Obama had my Âwires tapped in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!ÂŽ The charges brought furious denials from Obama aides „ who pointed out that the law forbids presidents from ordering wiretaps „ to a diplomatic ”ap with the United Kingdom, which protested claims by Trump allies that British allies may have been involved in the wiretapping. Nunes said MondayÂs hearing would look into the possibly illegal leaking of national security information since TrumpÂs election in November. Nunes cited the case of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, dismissed by Trump for mischaracterizing his discussions with the Russian ambassador to the United States, atopic that surfaced publicly because of news leaks. Trump and aides also have denied any connection to Russians who sought to hack Democratic ocials during last yearÂs election, and said opponents are leaking derogatory information as part of a Âwitch huntÂŽ to undermine the presidency. Since TrumpÂs March 4 tweets, he and aides have sought to rede“ne the terms of his accusations. While Trump used the term Âwire tapping,ÂŽ he and his aides say that now refers to ÂsurveillanceÂŽ in general. Anumber of Republicans have expressed skepticism about TrumpÂs tweets on Obama. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., told Fox News Sunday that he has seen no evidence of wiretapping Trump Tower, and said he is leaving it to committees to investigate, ÂI want to get on with passing our agenda,ÂŽ Ryan said. Despite a rising number of ocials who say there is no evidence, Trump and aides have not backed down. During a Friday news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel „ whose phones had been tapped by the Obama administration „ Trump told his guest: ÂAs far as wiretapping, I guess by this past administration, at least we have something in common, perhaps.ÂŽ The wiretap accusation also triggered a diplomatic row with another ally, as Trump and aides cited a report by Fox News commentator Andrew Napolitano that Obama asked a British intelligence agency to tap Trump. The British government objected and the Trump administration vowed not to use the claim again.

LetÂs face it... If the pain hasnÂt gone away by now, itÂs not likely to disappear on its own. Having severe back pain caused by a herniated disc can feel like a crippling condition. You might not be able to play golf, work, or even sit in the car for a 30-minute drive. ItÂs almost impossible for anyone around you to un derstand how you feel. You canÂt remember the last time you even had a restful night of sleep. Finally, thereÂs a treatment to conquer back an d leg pain without dangerous medications or painful surgery. When cushions in your back jo ints, called discs, get injured or wear out, they begin to degenerate and cause pain. Bulging and herniations begin to form, pressing on the nerve roots.Before You Have To Go Under The Knifeƒ You should seriously cons ider a less invasive approach called Deep Tissue Laser Therapy. This treatment is having a profound eect on patients suering with pain. Unlike the cutting type of laser seen in movies, and used in me dical procedures, Deep Tissue Laser Therapy penetrates the surface of the skin with a pleasant warming sensation. My name is Dr. Laura Korman, and I understa nd what it feels like to live in pain, because I see it every day. IÂve seen hundreds of people with disc herniations, back pain and sciatica -patients who were once told surgery was the only option --leave my oce pain-free. You see, I became a doctor to help people get well. IÂve always been driven to nd natural ways of helping people heal their bodies, before trying drugs or surgery. As part of that purpose, IÂve acquired state-of-the-art technology to help local residents like you nally get rid of your pain.Finally, You Have An Option Other Than Drugs Or Surgery Deep Tissue Laser Therapy has been tested for 40 years, had over 2000 papers published on it, and been shown to aid in damaged tissue regeneration, decrease inammation, relieve pain, and boost the immune system. This means that there is a good chance Deep Tissue Laser Therapy could be your pain solution, allowing you to live a more active lifestyle. What this means for you is that in just a matter of weeks, you could be back on the golf course, enjoying your love life, or traveling again. Professional athletes like Tiger Woods, and team members of the New England Patriots, rely upon laser therapy to treat their sports-related injuries. These guys use the laser for one reason onlyƒ. It Promotes Rapid Healing Of The Injured TissuesBefore the FDA would clear Laser Therapy for human use, they wanted to see proof that it worked. This led to two landmark studies. The rst study showed that patients who had Laser Therapy had 53% better improvement than those who had a placebo. The second study showed patients who used the Laser Therapy had less pain, and more range of motion, days af ter treatment. If Laser Therapy can help these patients, it can help you too. ItÂs time for you to nd out if Deep Tiss ue Laser Therapy will be your sciatic pain solution. For the rst 25 callers only IÂm running a new patient special for those with herniated discs or sciatica.

Page 4 www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 Secretary of State Rex Tillerson met Sunday with Chinese President Xi Jinping, talking about diplomacy and shared interests after earlier warning that the military Âoption is on the tableÂŽ to stop North KoreaÂs nuclear program.North Korea tested a rocket engine over the weekend while Tillerson was in Beijing. In their 30-minute meeting, Xi and Tillerson agreed that China and the United States could cooperate more but acknowledged that dierences between the two countries are likely to endure, the State Department said. Tillerson spoke to Xi about common interests of the United States and China „ the worldÂs two largest economies and greatest trade partners „ and said Xi and President Trump should talk more, even after a Âvery lengthy telephone conversationÂŽ the two leaders already had. Tillerson said Trump places a Âvery high valueÂŽ on communications with the Chinese president and looks forward to Âthe opportunity of a visit in the future,ÂŽ the Associated Press reported. Xi welcomed Tillerson with a similarly friendly tone, stressing the need for trust and mutual understanding, with an eye on longterm and strategic cooperation. He also invited Trump for a visit.Such pleasantries did not prevent North Korea, whose main ally is China, from demonstrating that more than talk will be needed to change its nuclear ambitions.North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw SaturdayÂs successful test of a new type of rocket engine that will enable Âworld-level satellite delivery capability,ÂŽ the state-controlled Korean Central News Agency reported Sunday. Such tests are banned by United Nations Security Council resolutions. Kim and his government have issued multiple statements in the past few months announcing the ongoing development of nuclear missiles that eventually could reach the U.S. mainland, a capability North Korea says it needs to prevent a U.S. attack. While China has signed on to new sanctions against the North, analysts say China could do more to pressure North Korea, and the U.S. should impose tougher sanctions on Chinese companies that support the NorthÂs nuclear and missile programs.In South Korea on Friday, Tillerson declared that diplomacy to prevent the NorthÂs pursuit of nuclear weapons had failed and that the Âstrategic patienceÂŽ policy of former president Barack Obama is now over. Tillerson said the military force Âoption is on the table,ÂŽ prompting his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, on Saturday to urge aÂcoolheadedÂŽ approach.

At the same time, supermarkets are destroying their pro“t margins as they “ght for new shoppers „ and “ght o deep discounters like Walmart and online sellers. It becomes a spiral. As food prices fall, retailers become more aggressive in trying to sell higher volumes in order to maintain revenue.

As spring approaches, some analysts expect Apple to spice up its iPad line, still No.1 in the slate category but on the decline. In late January, Apple CEO Tim Cook said he remained Âvery bullishÂŽ on iPadand hinted that Âexciting thingsÂŽ were coming, within the timeframe of a 90-day clock. The clock is winding down. Whether new iPads will be as exciting as Cook suggests is an open question. Refreshing the specs and adding features such as wireless charging would represent a good start, though no guarantee of a market boost. Sales of AppleÂs tablet dropped to 13.1 million units in the three months ended Dec. 31, compared to 16.1 million during the same stretch a year earlier. Year over year that translates into unit sales that fell 19%and revenues that plummeted 22%. The entire tablet category has been in the doldrums lately. Strategy Analytics reported global tablet shipments were down 9% in the fourth quarter. Apple still had the largest individual global market share in the fourth quarter, at 20.8%, Strategy Analytics data shows, but that compares to 23.2% a year earlier. Runner-up Samsung, which recently introduced new tablets of its own at Mobile World Congress „the Android based Galaxy Tab S3and the Windows 10-based Galaxy Book Â2-in-1ÂŽ „ has a 12.9% share. Amazon, in third, registered 6.7%. Collectively, Âwhite boxÂŽ vendors consisting mainly of cheap unbranded or rebranded traditional Android slates, as well as some Android and Windows 2in-1s, had the largest slice at 28.7%. Many such vendors were out of China. In the U.S., the iPad still has an 85% share on tablets priced more than $200, according to NPD, and continues to top the overall retail market. A sizable advantage for Apple comes with the more than 1million apps that have been designed speci“cally for iPad. One problem Apple faces, however, is that for many consumers, thereÂs simply been no compelling reason to regularly upgrade. Yes, the most recent iPads are faster, lighter and boast better screens than their older counterparts, but predecessor models still get the job done, at least for basic stu. But some iPads are feeling their age. The original iPad, dating back to when Steve Jobs unveiled it on stage in 2010, canÂt run iOS 10, the latest iteration of AppleÂs mobile operating system. Same goes for the second-generation iPad, the third-generation iPad with a Retina display and the original iPad Mini. Some other models are starting to feel sluggish, too, and they may be further impacted when Apple unleashes the next version of iOS at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. The good news for Apple is that people who have decided to get a tablet are still choosing iPads over rival slates. And iPads still make up the vast majority of tablet shipments in schools. ÂI frequently ”y and see many Samsung phone users with iPads. Ialmost never see any other tablet on a plane,ÂŽ says Horace Dediu, an analyst at market analysis “rm Asymco.com. Even during the iPadÂs heyday, potential buyers had to be persuaded that a tablet was worth getting instead of a conventional laptop computer, a decision often tied to whether the person intended to use a machine mostly for work or play. ItÂs a quandary some buyers still grapple with today. The decision is increasingly in”uenced by another factor: smartphones with ever-larger screens are encroaching on the space occupied by smaller tablets such as the iPad Mini. While the earliest iPads were mainly about consuming content „browsing, watching movies, reading a book, playing a game „ rather than producing stu, Apple more recently has gone after businesses and creative types with pricier Pro models that make good use of its optional Pencil stylus and optional keyboard, and with the “rst Pro model, a larger 12.9-inch screen. Conventional iPads, as well as a smaller Pro, have a 9.7-inch screen. The Pro was essentially AppleÂs “rst pass at the 2-in-1 category epitomized by Microsoft Surface computers. Such machines have detachable (often optional) keyboards and thus serve as hybrids between tablets and laptops. Strategy Analytics senior analyst Eric Smith notes it took Microsoft three tries with Surface before it got it right. ÂPrice is a key barrier for highpowered 2-in-1s right now,ÂŽ Smith says. ÂConsumers want them, especially as hard choices lie ahead as to which computing devices will be replaced.ÂŽ The phone remains essential, he says, but the choice between tablet and PC poses a dilemma.

Page 6 www.yoursun.com The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 In late February, the headline of a news commentary website that receives more than 2.8 million monthly visitors announced, ÂJews Destroy Another One of Their Own Graveyards to Blame Trump.ÂŽ The story, inspired by the recent desecration of a Jewish cemetery in Philadelphia, was the seething fantasy of an anti-Semitic website known as the Daily Stormer. With only a headline, this site can achieve something no hate group could have accomplished 20 years ago: It can connect with a massive audience. To whom, and how many, this latest conspiracy may travel is, in part, the story of Âfake news,ÂŽ the phenomenon in which biased propaganda is disseminated as if it were objective journalism in an attempt to corrupt public opinion. My recent book on digital hate culture, ÂFanaticism, Racism, and Rage Online,ÂŽ explores the online underworld from which many of those false narratives originate. I investigate the lesser-known source of all this hate-laced ÂnewsÂŽ simmering in our public debates, helping to cultivate a distorted reality for its ardent believers and a fractured polity for the rest of us. Looking at the most visited websites of what were once diminished movements „ white supremacists, xenophobic militants and Holocaust deniers, to name a few „ reveals a much-revitalized online culture. For example, according to SimilarWeb analytics, Stormfront, the longest-standing white supremacist site, receives more than two million monthly visitors. That is half a million more than the NAACP, GLAAD, the Anti-Defamation League and National Council of La Raza websites, combined. But size and scope alone do not account for the unprecedented reach that these websites have found in the digital age. Their ascent mirrors the improbable rise of former KKK Imperial Wizard David Duke, who shed his Klan robes for an eventual seat in the Louisiana House of Representatives. TodayÂs radical right is also remaking its pro“le, swapping swastikas and white-power rock for political blogs and news forums. The trappings may have changed, but the bigotry remains.Looking the partThe American Renaissance hate site opens with a quote from Thomas Jefferson and an offering of timely news articles. These include borrowed headlines from The New York Times about looming deportation policies and Associated Press stories on Texas voter ID laws. But there is an ever-present “xation on nationality and race, as in original commentaries like ÂHow I Saw the Light About Race.ÂŽ Weaving together real news with racist views, the site stealthily positions the fringe ideas as aligned with the mainstream. On the Occidental Observer (tagline: ÂWhite Identity, Interests, and CultureÂŽ), white nationalist contributors and a few former scholars speculate on forum topics like ÂThe Holocaust Industry,ÂŽ ÂJewish In”uenceÂŽ and the ÂRacialization of America.ÂŽ The Observer looks much like the homepage of any policy think tank, except for the conspiracy-driving anti-Semitic subtexts. For online hate groups like this, perception is reality. The common emphasis on news and politics re”ects a shift in the messages racist groups promote. Many no longer focus on white supremacy, but rather take the more accessible position of white victimization. The headlines emanating from websites like the Daily Stormer allow contemporary racists to imagine they are now a minority race under siege. These narratives include an imagined onslaught of illegal immigrants, a fear of black-on-white crime, an equal rights movement that somehow infringes on religious freedom and a Jewish globalist machine supposedly behind it all. Hate rhetoric repackaged as politics and housed in websites that look just like any other online blog can attract, or even persuade, more moderate ideologues to wade into extremist waters. This Âuser-friendlyÂŽ hate community is joining forces in a way that could never happen in the of”ine world. Thanks in part to this connectedness, these poisoned narratives are now spreading wellbeyond racist websites.How it travelsThe speed with which online hate travels is breathtaking. Two days after that Daily Stormer story on ÂJews Destroying Their Own Graveyards,ÂŽ David Duke discussed Âthe likelihood that the recent string of Âanti-Semitic hate incidents are in fact false ”ag hoaxesÂŽ on his podcast. The conspiracy had also begun to echo around Twitter, where Duke was sharing a link to his podcast and spreading a new hashtag: #fakehatecrimes. More people joined in, including followers tweeting ÂThis is a hoaxÂŽ and ÂQuestion the local rabbis.ÂŽ A senior adviser to President Trump took to Twitter to advance his theory that ongoing threats to Jewish community centers could be linked to the Democrats. This is but one example of how, despite recent efforts to limit fanatical voices, social networks have become incubators of toxic conspiracies. The topic of Âhate crime hoaxes,ÂŽ for example, has long been circulating through Reddit, YouTube and even Facebook. Meanwhile, in the farright blogosphere, sites like Breitbart, InfoWars and WorldNetDaily dedicate more space to obsessively ÂdebunkingÂŽ hate crimes than actually reporting on them. These two worlds seamlessly come together on Twitter, where conspiracies intermix with political diatribes. For hate groups, this is an unprecedented opportunity to “nally plug their fringe movements into a mainstream circuit. As false narratives ”ow through the internetÂs popular networks, they intermingle with legitimate information and gradually become washed of their radical origins in the process. ItÂs the same trajectory that drove the birther conspiracy. Questions about President ObamaÂs Âtrue birthplaceÂŽ began on the fringes of the web, found support in more traditional right-wing blogs like Free Republic, and then made their way onto television. Technology columnist Farhad Manjoo described this phenomenon, which weÂve now seen morph into fake news: ÂThe extreme points of views that weÂre getting that couldnÂt have been introduced into national discussion in the past are being introduced now by this sort of entry mechanism ƒ people put it on blogs, and then it gets picked up by cable news, and then it becomes a national discussion.ÂŽOpportunistic politicians lend credibilityThere is little doubt that a key reason so much bad information has spilled over into todayÂs national discourse is politicians who embrace and perpetuate these narratives. Of course, doing so only gives the authors of conspiracy the very exposure they seek. When, a year before the 2016 election, Donald Trump tweeted false statistics about the number of Âwhites killed by blacksÂŽ in America, white nationalists were listening. The evidence could be in seen in the celebratory headlines to follow in websites like Stormfront and Daily Stormer. Credibility has always been an ultimate but elusive goal for extremists. But online, theyÂre learning how to dilute the message of bigotry with heavy doses of political conspiracy for which there is apparently a welcoming audience. They achieve victory simply by injecting enough fake news into the system to produce doubt and discord around our most critical cultural debates. When he was asked about the recent antiSemitic threats and vandalism, President Trump told the Pennsylvania attorney general the incident was Âreprehensible.ÂŽ But he then went on to speculate that it might have been committed Âto make others look bad.ÂŽ That feeds the very doubt that extremist groups thrive on. And the cycle continues.How online hate infiltrates social media and politicsBy ADAM G. KLEINASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF COMMUNICATION STUDIES, PACE UNIVERSITY SHUTTERSTOCK ILLUSTRATION SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE

ItÂs unclear if Yosef has an attorney.ODD NEWS Police: Robber breaks leg, calls for help, gets arrested Focus on FloridaTHE WIRE NEW RINGGOLD, Pa. (AP) „ Among the groups hardest hit by the Republican plan to replace the Affordable Care Act is one that swung for Donald Trump during last yearÂs presidential race „ older Americans who have not yet reached Medicare age. Many of those who buy their own health insurance stand to pay a lot more for their coverage. That is especially true for the nearly 3.4 million older Americans who have enrolled through the government marketplaces, many of whom receive generous federal subsidies through the health care law enacted under former President Barack Obama. Health care experts predict those older adults will end up buying skimpier plans with lower coverage and higher deductibles because thatÂs all they will be able to afford. The Republican plan replaces the subsidies in the Affordable Care Act, which mostly bene“t lowand middle-income earners, with a ”at tax credit that does not take into account income or local insurance prices. On top of that, the GOP plan allows insurers to charge older people “ve times what they charge younger customers, compared to three times under ObamaÂs health care law. The Republican plan is still evolving, and many GOP lawmakers have said they want to see changes that reduce the impact on older consumers before they can support it. Based on the current plan, an Associated Press analysis of data from the Kaiser Family Foundation shows older consumers, de“ned as those age 55 and older, would be disproportionately affected. They could lose thousands of dollars per year in government subsidies for health insurance. The AP analysis also found that on average, the counties with the strongest Trump support will see costs for older enrollees rise 50 percent more than the counties that had the least amount of support for Trump. ÂA lot of people just wonÂt be able to afford to pay it. A lot of people are going to drop out of the market altogether,ÂŽ said KaiserÂs Cynthia Cox. That includes older voters who helped put Trump into of“ce. Take Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, an economically struggling former coal-mining center where the New York billionaire won 70 percent of the vote in November. About 40 percent of Schuylkill CountyÂs Affordable Care Act enrollees are 55 or older, more than 10 points higher than the national average. A 60-year-old making $30,000 annually here will pay roughly $8,750 more per year for coverage under the Republican plan moving through Congress, according to the AP analysis. ÂWhen it comes to food or insurance, itÂs going to be an easy choice,ÂŽ said Matt Strauss, a health insurance broker in New Ringgold, some of whose customers voted for Trump. Older Americans on both ends of the political spectrum say they are worried about what the future holds. Here are some of their stories: € € € Trump supporter and longtime Republican Robert Ruscoe, who runs a Florida liquidating business with his wife, said he is not feeling Âwarm and fuzzyÂŽ about the GOP health care plan. He went about “ve years without insurance because it was “nancially out of reach. When insurance became available through the Affordable Care Act, the couple was able to get a policy for about $350 per month, after a $700 monthly subsidy from the government. ÂItÂs nice to be able to go the doctor whenever something comes up. It gives you a peace ... especially when you get close to 60,ÂŽ said Ruscoe, 57, of West Palm Beach. He said he didnÂt hesitate to sign up through the Affordable Care Act, a program his party spent years vowing to dismantle. ÂIt doesnÂt matter who came up with it. ItÂs a good thing to be supporting across party lines,ÂŽ he said. Worried about losing coverage, Ruscoe considered voting for a Democrat for the “rst time last November. But he ultimately placed his trust in Trump and the GOP. ÂObamacare is eventually going to have to be “scally sound. Otherwise itÂs not going to stay,ÂŽ Ruscoe said. ÂI “gured (a replacement) was coming, anyway.ÂŽ He said he wants Trump to know that having access to insurance matters. ÂThat coverage made a big difference in a lot of peopleÂs lives, just like me,ÂŽ he said. € € € Anna Holloway of Norman, Oklahoma, who takes daily medication for an auto-immune disease, said she is fearful the GOP plan will price her out of the market for health insurance. ÂI am conscious of just how desperate this is,ÂŽ said Holloway, 60, “ghting back tears. ÂI try not to let myself feel this way, but to live this way with real terror, real fear that the universe is going to fall apart around me.ÂŽ She takes home about $1,150 per month working four parttime jobs. ThatÂs only $250 more than the monthly premium for a health care plan that includes Holloway and her 23-year-old daughter. Without the government subsidy that makes the policy affordable, she would have to drop it. The Kaiser analysis estimates a family plan in Norman under the current Republican proposal would cost as much as $20,000 more for someone in HollowayÂs income and age bracket. ÂIÂd go without health care. I would get sicker, and that would make it more dif“cult to work. I would eventually have to stop working,ÂŽ said Holloway, a registered Democrat who voted for Hillary Clinton. Holloway said she has contemplated the possibility of selling her home and moving in with a family member in Virginia. She acknowledges sometimes feeling hopeless when she considers how losing her health care would affect her life. ÂIÂm not suicidal, but there are times that I think of the damage that could be done to my daughter and her future if I have to eat up all my reserves and my house and all that I own,ÂŽ she said. € € € The Affordable Care Act didnÂt work for Wendy Kline, a hairstylist in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, who voted for Donald Trump. Kline tried buying a policy on the federal exchange but found she made a little too much money to qualify for a government subsidy. So she was stuck paying the market rate. Her policy jumped this year from $630 to $929 a month. As a result, the 61-year-old isnÂt able to save much for retirement. ÂI try to put as much away as I can, but my health insurance is $30 less than my mortgage payment,ÂŽ said Kline, who works two jobs. The GOP plan is a mixed bag for people like Kline. It gives some higher-income consumers the ability to get tax credits for coverage purchased off the exchange, but it also giv es insurers the right to charge older customers like her more than they can under the current law. Kline voted for Trump hoping he would be able to work with Congress Âto make it affordable for everyone, across the board.ÂŽ She said she still has hope, but is increasingly skeptical. ÂIÂm so tired of the whole thing,ÂŽ she said. ÂWhen they talk, I turn the television down because it just drives me crazy.ÂŽ € € € Retired factory worker Bob Melton, 63, said the projected cost increases for older Americans mean he and his wife Tammy, 58, would be unable to continue to afford coverage. They now pay $225 a month after the subsidies they receive through the Affordable Care Act. He was staggered by a projection that the coupleÂs premiums could go up by nearly $17,000 under the GOP plan. ÂItÂll put me and my wife out „ out of insurance. ThereÂs just no way,ÂŽ he said. Melton saw a doctor for the “rst time in 12 years after he and his wife bought a policy through the federal health insurance exchange in 2014. After three appointments and blood tests ruled out more serious ailments, Melton said he learned the nagging pain he suffered in his hands was caused by arthritis. The Meltons live in Morganton, North Carolina, about 75 miles northwest of Charlotte, in a county that has seen an exodus of manufacturing jobs. Trump won more than two-thirds of the vote here. Bob Melton himself used to be a staunch Republican. Now he blames Republicans in North Carolina for what he views as efforts to obstruct the Affordable Care Act from working as intended, by refusing to expand Medicaid coverage. ÂThereÂs no justi“cation for it except for spite. ThatÂs just the way I feel about it,ÂŽ said Melton, who voted for Clinton. Although heÂs grateful for his federally subsidized plan, MeltonÂs experience highlights the diminishing options that have plagued those trying to buy health insurance on the government exchanges established under the Obama reforms. Last year, MeltonÂs coverage cost only about $37 after subsidies through Coventry Health Care, a division of Aetna Inc., but the company has since dropped exchange offerings in the state. His current insurer, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, is the only choice available, and his monthly premium is up nearly $200.For many older Americans, costs rise under GOP health planBy MICHAEL RUBINKAM, KELLI KENNEDY and MEGHAN HOYERASSOCIATED PRESS AP PHOTOAnna Holloway poses for a photo at her home in Norman, Oklahoma Wednesday.

Data released earlier this month by the federal government shows that FloridaÂs Medicaid Fraud Control Unit recovered more than $165 million during the 2016 federal “scal year. That placed Florida second behind the state of New York. Florida was 11th overall in the nation in the amount of convictions won by its Medicaid Fraud Control Unit, according to information compiled by the federal government. The stateÂs Medicaid Fraud Control Unit reports to Attorney General Pam Bondi but the costs are split between the state and federal government. Federal authorities have called Florida, especially South Florida, one of the Âhot spots for health care fraudÂŽ in the nation.Woman accused in husbandÂs insurance killing gets 12 yearsORANGE PARK (AP) „ A woman accused of orchestrating her husbandÂs murder to collect insurance money has been sentenced to 12 years in prison.

A third defendant, Ronnie Wilson II, has yet to stand trial in the case.Pregnant woman falls ill after immigration detentionMIAMI (AP) „ Immigration of“cials say a pregnant woman they detained and handcuffed had to be rushed to a central Florida hospital in pain shortly after being taken into custody. A Thursday statement by the U.S. Immigration and Customs EnforcementÂs Homeland Security Investigations said Ana Isabel Reyes Ramos was detained Tuesday for using false documents in a visa application. The statement says agents placed the handcuffs in front of her Âfor her comfort,ÂŽ adding that anyone being transported in agency vehicles must be handcuffed. On the way to the Homeland Security of“ce, Reyes began to feel ill and was taken instead to a local hospital in Stuart, north of West Palm Beach. After she was discharged, she was processed by immigration authorities and let go with a notice to appear in court. Reyes couldnÂt be reached for comment. HEADLINES FROM AROUND THE STATE TALLAHASSEE (AP) „ Citing unresolved health concerns, Florida lawmakers are weighing the fate of a measure that would ban fracking across the state. Legislators are pushing the bill to safeguard FloridaÂs clean water supply, which is the drinking water source for 90 percent of Floridians and a major player in the stateÂs economy, from agriculture to tourism. If passed, the bill would effectively ban any type of well stimulation technique statewide. That includes fracking „ a practice that requires pumping huge volumes of chemicals, sand and water underground to split open rock formation to allow oil and gas to ”ow. Environmentalists say chemicals used in the process can leak into underground water sources. Because Florida sits atop porous, sponge-like sedimentary limestone, environmentalists believe it is at a higher risk of chemical leaks. The Environmental Protection Agency concluded in 2016 that fracking poses a risk to drinking water in some circumstances, but added that a lack of information on the practice makes it hard to know how severe that risk would be. Those opposing the measure argue the fracking ban could cost the state, litigation-wise, because it would result in taking away property rights and the ability to extract oil. ÂThe bill does nothing to foreclose the traditional oil and gas operations that we currently have here in the state of Florida, and we currently „ at least to our knowledge „ are not fracking the state,ÂŽ Sen. Dana Young, the billÂs sponsor, said at a press conference. The legislation comes at a time when the anti-fracking movement has ballooned across the state. According to a Floridians Against Fracking report, 90 communities have introduced measures seeking to ban the practice in one way or another. Young joined the momentum not too long ago. Last year, she helped advance a bill in the House that would have created a pathway to legalizing the practice, but the measure died in the Senate. Young said her stance changed after meeting with stakeholders and Âexhausting hours of research and soul-searching.ÂŽ On day one of the 60-day legislative session, Environmental Preservation and Conservation Committee members advanced this yearÂs bill. It now has two more stops before heading to the full Senate. While Senate President Joe Negron has vowed to make the environment one of his priorities, he has not taken a “rm stance on the ban. A similar bill moving to prohibit fracking has been introduced in the House. While it has received support from Democrats, the billÂs sponsor, Rep. Mike Miller, is the only Republican backing it.

KEY WEST (AP) „ Marine salvors have been racing to get 32 abandoned boats off the bottom in Marquesas Keys waters before birds arrive. A crew removed seven deteriorating vessels, many holding hazardous materials, oily residue, fuels and other pollutants. The Keynoter reports the $61,200 project is aimed at helping protected species like green and hawksbill sea turtles, the Miami blue butter”y and the piping plover The Marquesas, six islands about 17 miles west of Key West, lie within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and the Florida Keys National Wildlife Refuges Complex. Most of the derelict boats ended in waters and shores of the Marquesas as Cuban migrants ”ed north. The removal project aims to conclude before bird-nesting season on the remote islands begins April 1. However, strong winds and high seas slowed efforts after Monday, with work continuing through this weekend to remove the derelict Âchugs,ÂŽ boats rigged with old engines. Most are between 18 and 25 feet long. ÂRemoval of these vessels and marine debris is critical for the continued conservation of these rare animals and their habitats because if left as is, they would li kely continue to impact this important habitat,ÂŽ said Daniel Clark, manager of the Keys wildlife refuge system. ÂWe are pleased to be a part of this multi-agency effort and thank the county, state and other federal partners as we work together to ensure these precious ecosystems remain in good condition for future generations.ÂŽ Several are completely submerged. ÂOthers are strewn along sandy beaches and mangrovesÂŽ considered essential nesting areas for sea turtles and birds, county information of“cer Cammy Clark said. ÂCof“n Marine Services will use a 60-foot barge with a boom crane and other resources to remove the boats.ÂŽ The project is logistically complicated due to the remote location and specialized boats and equipment necessary to perform the job, said Marine Resources senior administrator Rich Jones. Jones said the county uses some of the local share of state Boating Improvement Funds to remove derelict boats throughout the Keys, usually about 80 a year. This is the “rst project of its type in the Marquesas. Some of the funding will come from federal “nes levied on boaters who damaged resources in the Keys national marine sanctuary.Officials crack down on abandoned boats in Marquesas Keys AP PHOTOA United Launch Alliance Delta IV rocket lifts o from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Saturday, in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

The Sun /Monday, March 20, 2017 www.yoursun.com Page 9 WORLD NEWS RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) „ BrazilÂs presid ent met Sunday with dozens of ambassadors from countries that import Brazilian meat, seeking to minimize damage from a corruption probe that alleges meatpackers bribed inspectors to keep rotten meat on the market. Speaking at the presidential palace, President Michel Temer told the diplomats that BrazilÂs Âgovernment wants to reiterate its con“dence in the quality of our national product.ÂŽ Temer set up the meeting following inquiries from the European Union and China over the scandal. Federal police issued 38 arrest warrants involving the giant meatpackers JBS and BRF in a blow to BrazilÂs reputation as one of the worldÂs leading meat producers. The president minimized the investigation, saying that only 33 of the 11,000 inspectors at the Agriculture Ministry are being investigated for allegedly taking bribes to overlook meatpackers using chemicals to improve the appearance and smell of expired meat. Some of the bad meat was exported to Europe, investigators have said. Temer told the ambassadors that the Agriculture Ministry would soon release a list of countries that could have received rotten meat as well as the name of the meatpackers responsible. Wrapping up the meeting, the president invited the ambassadors for dinner at a traditional Brazilian barbecue restaurant in Brasilia. Earlier, T emer met with his agriculture and foreign commerce ministers as well as meatpacking industry leaders to talk about the impact of the case. Authorities say that out of the 4,800 meatpacking facilities subject to federal inspection in Brazil, 21 are under investigation, including units of the two big companies JBS and BRF. Federal police also said Friday the two-year investigation had determined that part of the money allegedly paid by JBS and BRF was channeled to two of BrazilÂs major political parties, including TemerÂs.Brazil reassures foreign countries after meat scandal WORLD NEWS BRIEFSItaly president hugs those like him who lost family to MafiaROME (AP) „ ItalyÂs president, whose brother was murdered by Cosa Nostra, has traveled to an organized crime stronghold in southern Italy to honor hundreds of Italians slain by the countryÂs mobsters over the past decades. President Sergio Mattarella praised the judges, prosecutors, police officers, union leaders, businessmen and politicians who courageously combated or denounced organized crime. During the ceremony Sunday in Locri, a Calabrian town that is a longtime base of the ÂÂNdrangheta crime syndicate, the names of innocent victims, some accidentally hit by crossfire of feuding crime clans, were read aloud. Among the names was that of the presidentÂs brother, Piersanti Mattarella, the Sicilian governor assassinated in Palermo in 1980. Mattarella lamented that the ÂMafia is still strongÂŽ and controls or tries to infiltrate much of ItalyÂs economy.Protesters march in Paris against police violencePARIS (AP) „ Several thousand people marched in Paris on Sunday against police violence. The demonstration was the latest protest sparked by the alleged rape in February of a young black man with a police baton, and other police abuse. Demonstrators carried banners with portraits of victims of alleged police brutality. Anarchists faced off with riot police at the end of the march and tear gas was fired but clashes remained limited in scope and violence. The alleged police rape of Theo in the Paris suburb of Aulnay-sous-Bois turned the 22-year-old into a symbol for minorities standing up to police violence. His last name hasnÂt been publicly released. He was hospitalized for two weeks. One officer was charged with rape, while three others were accused of aggravated assault. All deny intentional wrongdoing.NATIONAL NEWS NEW YORK (AP) „ The eldest son of a “re department medic fatally run over by a stolen ambulance urged her colleagues and loved ones Saturday to be humbled rather than sad in her memory. ÂSeeing everyone she affected, I know she didnÂt die in vain,ÂŽ Jose Montes, the eldest of slain Fire Department emergency medical technician Yadira ArroyoÂs “ve sons, told the family members and colleagues gathered at the Bronx stationhouse where the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation announced it was giving $100,000 to the sons. ÂI know my mother wouldnÂt have wanted people to be sad today. She would rather everyone „ if you could take something from this, just let it humble you,ÂŽ said Montes, 24. ÂJust learn from this. Learn to hold your family closer every day, because life is short.ÂŽ Meanwhile, “re department announced funeral arrangements for Arroyo, a 14-year veteran of its emergency medical services. Her wake will be from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday at the Joseph A. Lucchese Funeral Home. Her funeral is scheduled for 11 a.m. March 25 at St. Nicholas of Tolentine Roman Catholic Church. Both are in the Bronx. Arroyo, 44, and another EMT were responding to a routine medical call Thursday when 25-yearold Jose Gonzalez hopped on the back of the ambulance, then darted into the driverÂs seat and ran Arroyo down after a man on the street ”agged the vehicle down to say Gonzalez had stolen his backpack, authorities said. Gonzalez has been charged with murder. He told reporters Friday he was innocent, while his lawyer said heÂs mentally ill and didnÂt act intentionally. Arroyo was a dedicated EMT who responded to calls even during asthma attacks and was a mother “gure to her co-workers, colleagues have said. The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, named for a “re“ghter killed in the Sept. 11 terror attacks, honors “rst responders and military members. The donation is to be put in a trust for ArroyoÂs sons. The youngest is 7. ÂMe and my brothers, weÂre all going to stick together,ÂŽ Montes said. ÂWeÂre going to be here for each other and support each other in every single way.ÂŽSlain New York City medicÂs son: ÂI know she didnÂt die in vain Dear Dave, WeÂre trying to get control of our “nances, and my husband wants to close all our credit cards. I want to keep one and use the billpay option for monthly stuff like utilities, so we can keep earning rewards points. I look at my way as a method of just rerouting the money and paying it off each month. Am I wrong in looking at it like this? „ Cheryl Dear Cheryl, Yes, you are. Life never goes as planned. You can have all the well-reasoned and best-intentioned ideas you want, but sooner or later something will go wrong. Why not use a debit card that has a rewards system attached? Lots of debit card programs offer the same kinds of rewards programs that credit card companies do, with one big exception „ you donÂt have to go into debt! Studies have shown that the vast majority of people never redeem their credit card airline miles. Other studies show that people spend more when using credit cards as opposed to cash. That extra money you spend on things you donÂt need is money you could have been saving and investing. So, whereÂs the reward? „ DaveCollections and creditors questionDear Dave, We were very late on one of our credit card bills, and now it has been turned over to a collection agency. The collection company has offered us three or four different payment options. Does the original creditor accept the agreement, too, if we accept one of the collection agencyÂs options? „ Anonymous Dear Anonymous, In most situations of this type, the collection agency owns the debt outright or theyÂre directly representing the original creditor. ItÂs pretty much standard operating procedure when someone has defaulted on a loan. My advice would be to accept the deal theyÂve offered that makes the most sense for you and your current “nancial situation. ItÂll ding your credit report, and show a settlement on the defaulted credit card, but thatÂs not the end of the world. ThereÂs already a mark against you for it being turned over to collections. If you want to keep things like this from happening in the future, you need to get control of your “nances. Stop playing with credit cards! „ Dave Dave Ramsey is CEO of Ramsey Solutions.

By JOE SMITHTampa Bay TimesTAMPA „ The sight of Steven Stamkos partic ipating in a full team practice Friday was as tantalizing for teammates as it was for Lightning fans. ÂCertain things he does on the ice, you can tell this team is going to be a lot better with him,ÂŽ wing Alex Killorn said. ÂWeÂre hoping to get him back as soon as possible.ÂŽ The million-dollar question is when? ThereÂs no question the Lightning badly needs Stamkos as it fights for its playoff lives with 11 games to go. ThereÂs a glaring hole at center after two were dealt at the deadline and with three currently injured. But Tampa Bay isnÂt going to rush Stamkos back, no matter the stakes, and thatÂs the right call. ÂThe one way I guess to make sure he may play is to get into the playoffs,ÂŽ coach Jon Cooper said. ÂThatÂs what weÂre trying to do here. HeÂs the core of our franchise. Until doctors and Steven Stamkos say, ÂIÂm ready to go, heÂs not going on the ice.ÂŽ Doctors will be part of the decision, but ultimately this will be Stamkos call. Stamkos will only return when heÂs 100 percent, and he truly doesnÂt know when he will. ThatÂs why he wouldnÂt commit to saying heÂd return by the end of the regular season, as much as he desperately wants to. ÂIÂve gone through stuff like this before,ÂŽ Stamkos said. ÂYou start setting dates, thatÂs when sometimes you set unrealistic goals.ÂŽ It was interesting to hear Stamkos say that the initial prognosis of a four-month recovery was Âout of the questionÂŽ pretty quickly. He said it was realistically closer to five, which would be mid April, though his recent progress might have accelerated it. The fact that Stamkos has been through several serious injuries is unfortunate and seems unfair, but it also helps him in this case. Having come back from a broken leg in 201314 and a blood clot in last yearÂs playoffs, Stamkos knows how he should feel when heÂs ready to go. And itÂs not just physically.Close “ nishMarc LeishmanÂs late eagle putt helps him win the Arnold Palmer Invitational, 3Monday, March 20, 2017 SPORTS www.yoursun.com www.Facebook.com/SuncoastSports € @SunCoastSportsINDEX | Lottery 2 | NBA 2 | NHL 2 | Golf 3 | NCAA 4 | Scoreboard 5 | Baseball 6COLLEGE BASKETBALL: GatorsFlorida downs Virginia for sweet winSEE LIGHTINING, 3Stamkos By MARK LONGAssociated PressORLANDO „ For a team that puts so much energy and effort into defense, FloridaÂs performance against Virginia was as close to perfect as possible. Devin Robinson had 14 points and 11 rebounds, the fifth double-double of his career, and the fourth-seeded Gators handled the No. 5 seed Cavaliers 65-39 on Saturday night in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Justin Leon added 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Gators (26-8), who advanced to the Sweet Sixteen for the 11th time in school history and fifth in the last seven years. They will play No. 8 seed Wisconsin in the East Regional in New York City on Friday. They can thank stingy defense and a ridiculous run spanning halftime for this trip to Madison Square Garden. ÂThatÂs about as well as weÂve played defensively,ÂŽ Florida coach Mike White said. ÂWe put a lot of it together tonight.ÂŽBy BRYAN LEVINESports WriterPORT CHARLOTTE „ The 2015 Houston Astros were an unlikely playoff team. Preseason predictions had them finishing in fourth place in the AL West and hovering somewhere around .500. But with a combination of rising stars and some Cy-Young-worthy pitching, they won 93 games and were a Wild Card team. It was in that Wild Card game against the New York Yankees where outfielder Colby Rasmus had what he considers the highlight of his career. ÂPeople didnÂt really think we had a chance going in there against the Yankees,ÂŽ Ramus said. ÂThat stretch as far as my MLB career Â… thereÂs probably a few things from my younger years I cherish a little more Â… but to be able to do that on that kind of a stage and I just kind of snuck up on folks.ÂŽ Ramus, now with the Tampa Bay Rays, was an unlikely playoff hero on that unlikely playoff team. The Astros won the Wild Card game 3-0 against the Yankees, and it was Rasmus second-inning leadoff solo home run which proved to be the game-winner. He went on to hit three more home runs in the five-game series against the Kansas City Royals, the eventual world champions. ÂIÂm thankful for that time with my teammates and being able to pop champagne,ÂŽ Rasmus said. ÂThe fun we had, and the enjoyment on some of those boys faces starting from the beginning of the season, people didnÂt think we even had a chance. To be able to do that, I feel blessed and privileged.ÂŽ The 30-year-old signed with the Tampa Bay Rays during this offseason, and didnÂt have the opportunity to make any on-field memories with his new teammates until yesterday. Recovering from hip and core-muscle surgery, Rasmus played in his first game of the spring Sunday against the Phillies. Rasmus struck out in all three at-bats on Sunday, but had a few hard-hit foul balls. ÂI was just happy to get him out there,ÂŽ manager Kevin Cash said after the game. ÂI havenÂt talked to him after the fact, but hopefully he feels good and heÂll be right back out there DHing tomorrow.ÂŽSUN PHOTO BY TOM OÂNEILLColby Rasmus watches a long shot go just foul during SundayÂs game against Philadelphia.

AP PHOTORyan Newman leans on the trophy as he celebrates in victory lane after winning the NASCAR Cup Series auto race at Phoenix International Raceway Sunday in Avondale, Ariz. By BOB BAUMAssociated PressAVONDALE, Ariz. „ Ryan Newman gambled and skipped a tire-changing pit stop to move from seventh place to the lead and held on for the final two laps for a surprise victory in SundayÂs Monster Energy NASCAR Cup series race. The 39-year-old Newman, who broke a 127-race winless streak, held off Kyle Larson, the second-place finisher for the third straight race. Kyle Busch, the leader for nearly all of the final stage of the race, was third on a day when the temperature soared to 97 degrees at Phoenix International Raceway. Like nearly all the rest of the field, Larson and Busch went to the pits on the late caution caused when Joey LoganoÂs car blew a right tire and slammed into the wall six laps from the finish. Newman, in his first win since the 2013 Brickyard 400, gave Chevrolet its first victory of the season and ended a 112-race losing streak for Richard Childress Racing. Once again, LoganoÂs misfortune foiled Busch. Last week LoganoÂs car knocked BuschÂs into the wall on the final stretch in Las Vegas. That led Busch to storm down pit row and throw a punch at Logano, creating a scuffle with the crews and a meeting for the drivers with NASCAR officials on Friday.AUTO RACING: NASCARNewman skips late pit stop, stuns “ eld in PhoenixBy JOE REEDYAssociated PressTALLAHASSEE „ Florida State made the NCAA Tour nament for the first time in five years, but whether the Seminoles (26-9) can return next season will depend on the decisions of their three leading scorers. Dwayne Bacon, Jonathan Isaac and Xavier Rathan-Mayes said after SaturdayÂs 91-66 loss to Xavier in the second round that they had not reached a decision and had no timetable. All three though are expected to put their names into consideration for the NBA draft. Isaac, a 6-foot-10 freshman forward, averaged 12.0 points and 7.8 rebounds. He is the most likely of the trio not to return as many have projected him to be a lottery pick. Bacon was the teamÂs leading scorer for the second straight season, averaging 17.2 points. The 6-7 sophomore guard worked on his shooting during the offseason last year and has developed a better range of shots instead of merely attacking the rim. Draft projections have him anywhere from a late firstto second-round pick. Rathan-Mayes has developed into a solid point guard. The 6-4 junior led the Atlantic Coast Conference in assist/turnover ratio while averaging 10.6 points. He could return for his senior season to improve his draft chances.COLLEGE BASKETBALL: SeminolesAfter NCAA berth, Florida St. top scorers weigh decisionsSEE SEMINOLES, 4 SEE GATORS, 4NASCAR-Monster Energy Cup Results1.

Barea put away the Mavericks win with a burst at the end. Nowitzki had 23 points and nine rebounds, Barea scored 20 and the Mavericks beat the Brooklyn Nets 111-104 Sunday. The Mavericks led 94-92 with more than five minutes left before Barea scored nine straight Dallas points. ÂBig shots,ÂŽ Nowitzki said. ÂThatÂs what he does, pick-and-roll. They came off there and he made a couple from mid-range. He kind of iced it for us there and heÂs made big plays for this franchise for a long time.ÂŽ Said coach Rick Carlisle: ÂThat was a key part of the game.ÂŽ ÂI thought Dirk played a great game. His scoring and shooting was tremendous,ÂŽ he said.76ERS 105, CELTICS 99: Robert Covington made the go-ahead 3-pointer late in the fourth quarter to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a win over the Boston Celtics. Dario Saric scored key baskets to extend the lead and bolster his bid for NBA Rookie of the Year. Saric scored 23 points and helped rally the Sixers from a 13-point hole in the third. Covington buried a 3 with 3:37 left that put the Sixers up 94-91 and Nik Stauskas hit his own with 38 seconds left for a 103-97 lead that sent fans inside a packed Wells Fargo Center into a frenzy. PISTONS 112, SUNS 95: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 23 points and the Detroit Pistons overcame a sluggish performance for the much of the game, “ nally pulling away from the short-handed Phoenix Suns for a victory. The Suns were without several top players, but they still led the playoff-chasing Pistons 65-53 in the third quarter. Detroit “ nished strong in that period and then built a double-digit lead of its own in the fourth. PELICANS 123, TIMBERWOLVES 109: Anthony Davis had 28 points and 12 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans beat the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves. DeMarcus Cousins added 15 points and 11 rebounds in his return from a one-game absence because of left knee and rib soreness. NBA ROUNDUPNowitzki scores 23, leads Mavericks over NetsAssociated PressA moment of reconciliation more than 15 years in the making allowed the Pittsburgh Penguins to pay tribute to an important part of their past. Then Sidney Crosby and the precocious kids who play alongside him provided a thrilling reminder of just how good the defending Stanley Cup champions have it in the present. And most likely the future. The captain poured in a natural hat trick during a 10:45 span between the second and third periods „ all three assists coming from linemates Conor Sheary and Jake Guentzel „ as the Penguins pulled away for a 4-0 victory over the Florida Panthers on Sunday. The Penguins aired a video in the first period to salute Florida star Jaromir Jagr on the day he became the fourth player in NHL history to skate in 1,700 games. Jagr even received a standing ovation from the sellout crowd, a rarity in a place where he spent the first 806 games of his career while helping the Penguins to consecutive Stanley Cups in 1991 and 1992 as a freewheeling, fabulously mulleted 20-something who remains the second-leading scorer in franchise history behind mentor Mario Lemieux. At least for now. Crosby inched closer after his 10th career hat trick gave him 1,018 points in his career. He almost certainly wonÂt pass JagrÂs 1,079 with the Penguins until next season, though itÂs hardly something Crosby is keeping tabs on. Keeping the Metropolitan Division lead within armÂs reach is more than enough for now, particularly with Evgeni Malkin out while dealing with an upper-body injury.BLUE JACKETS 4, DEVILS 1: Lukas Sedlak and Brandon Dubinsky scored on penalty shots and the Columbus Blue Jackets clinched their third playoff berth in franchise history with a victory over the New Jersey Devils. This was only the third time in NHL history that a team scored twice in a game on penalty shots. Thomas Gradin and Ivan Hlinka of Vancouver did it against Detroit in 1982, and Ryane Clowe and Joe Thornton of San Jose converted against Washington in 2009. The win was the fourth straight for the Blue Jackets, gave them their “ rst 100-point season and moved them into a tie with Washington for the NHLÂs best record with 11 games left. Columbus, which joined the league in 2000, last made the playoffs in 2014. Boone Jenner added two goals, one short-handed and the other into an empty net. Sergei Bobrovsky made 35 saves for Columbus, which is 12-3-1 in its last 16 games. Adam Henrique scored for the Devils, whose season is all but over after falling to 1-10-2 in its last 13. JETS 5, WILD 4: Josh Morrissey one-timed in a goal with 7:17 left to end MinnesotaÂs rally from four goals down and give the Winnipeg Jets a chaotic victory over the Wild. It was MinnesotaÂs “ fth straight loss. The last time the Wild lost “ ve in a row was the “ nal “ ve regular season games last spring. They only have two wins in their last 10 games. NHL ROUNDUPCrosbyÂs hat trick leads Penguins past PanthersAP PHOTOPittsburgh Penguins Sidney Crosby (87) celebrates his first goal of the second period against the Florida Panthers on Sunday in Pittsburgh. Associated PressTexas coach Karen Aston came to the Longhorns five years ago with a goal of setting a new standard of excellence for the program. Three straight trips to the Sweet 16 set a pretty nice bar. Brooke McCarty scored 23 points and the No. 3-seed Longhorns got a put-back basket from Joyner Holmes with 4 seconds left to the send them to thrilling 84-80 win Sunday over No. 6 North Carolina State, earning another trip deep into the NCAA Tournament in the Lexington Regional. ÂStringing along these Sweet 16s, itÂs the standard here,ÂŽ McCarty said. ÂThis is what you do. You come here to do this.ÂŽ This one took some big plays and big shots from the Big 12 player of the year to dig the Longhorns out from a second-half deficit and carry the Longhorns past two outstanding scoring efforts from North Carolina State guards Miah Spencer and Dominique Wilson. Spencer scored 31 and Wilson scored 27 for the Wolfpack. But Spencer fouled out with 1 minute left when she tangled with McCarty away from the ball and WilsonÂs go-ahead basket with 8 seconds left was waived off on a charging call. McCarty said she was trying to tangle up Spencer to get her out of the game. Her two free throws after the foul gave Texas the lead for good at 79-78. LEXINGTON REGIONOHIO STATE 82, KENTUCKY 68: Tori McCoy s cored six straight points midway through the fourth quarter to help Ohio State withstand KentuckyÂs furious rally from a 19-point second-half de“ cit and escape. The fourth-seeded Wildcats trailed 50-31 early in third but closed to 65-64 with 6:04 remaining. The “ fthseeded Buckeyes answered with eight straight points behind McCoy. BRIDGEPORT REGIONMARYLAND 83, WEST VIRGINIA 56: Destiny Slocum nailed a 70-foot shot to cap a pivotal second quarter for Maryland, and the Terrapins went on to defeat West Virginia. Brionna Jones had 22 points and 11 rebounds, Slocum scored 21 and Shatori Walker-Kimbrough added 19 for third-seeded Maryland (32-3), which will next face the winner of MondayÂs game between No. 2 seed Duke and Oregon. Teana Muldrow led West Virginia (24-11) with 16 points. Leading scorer Tynice Martin was limited to 10 points on 3 of 18 shooting. The game turned in the second quarter, when Maryland outscored West Virginia 26-8 to take a 38-24 lead. After opening with a 23-4 run, the Terrapins gave up two straight baskets „ the last with 4 seconds left „ before Slocum reared back with both hands behind her head and launched a shot from just outside the opposite arc that hit nothing but net. OKLAHOMA CITY REGIONMISSISSIPPI 92, DEPAUL 71: Blair Schaefer scored 18 points, Jazzmun Holmes added 14 and Mississippi State beat DePaul in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Secondseeded Mississippi State used a 14-0 run in the middle of the third quarter to turn a tight game into a 61-43 advantage. DePaul, the seven seed, scored the next seven points to cut the lead to 61-50 by the end of the third quarter, but Mississippi State responded with the “ rst eight points of the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach and advance to the Sweet 16 for the second straight season. Mississippi State (31-4) had an unorthodox starting lineup for the second straight game, with usual role players like Schaefer, Ketara Chapel and Roshuna Johnson in the “ rst “ ve instead of Victoria Vivians, Dominique Dillingham and Chinwe Okorie.STOCKTON REGIONSOUTH CAROLINA 71, ARIZONA STATE 68: AÂja Wilson scored 21 points, including the put back that gave South Carolina the lead for good and the free throws that sealed it, to help the No. 1 seed Gamecocks beat eight-seed Arizona State. Sophie Bruner missed a heavily contested 3-pointer at the buzzer that would have tied it. Arizona State (20-13) scored 11 straight points to take a 68-67 lead with two minutes to go, but Wilson put back her own miss with 46.8 seconds to go that gave South Carolina (29-4) a 69-68 advantage. Kaela Davis had a steal on the Sun Devils next-to-last possession and Wilson converted the two free throws. FLORIDA STATE 77, MISSOURI 65: Shakayla Thomas scored 20 points and third-seeded Florida State advanced to the Sweet 16 for the third straight season with a victory over No. 6 seed Missouri. Thomas, who also had 11 rebounds, was one of four Seminoles in double “ gures. Brittany Brown added 16 points while Imani Wright and Leticia Romero each scored 14.

The Sun / Monday, March 20, 2017 www.yoursun.com SP Page 3By DOUG FERGUSONAssociated PressORLANDO„ Marc Leishman kept shifting his eyes toward the glare coming from the silver Arnold Palmer Invitational trophy at his side. Beyond the shiny prize, between two images of Palmer, was a black banner with six words that defined how Palmer approached the game. ÂYou must play boldly to win.ÂŽ Leishman followed that script Sunday to a one-shot victory at Bay Hill. He didnÂt flinch over three key par putts over the last four holes. And even after his most disappointing shot down the stretch, a 9-iron on the par-5 16th hole that settled 50 feet away from the flag, the 33-year-old Australian knocked it in for an eagle that allowed him to jump past Rory McIlroy, Kevin Kisner and Charley Hoffman into the lead alone. He never gave back, and no one could catch him. The timing couldnÂt have been better for Leishman, except at the end. ÂItÂs sad not to have him up there walking off the 18th green, to be that first guy to walk off and not be greeted by Arnold Palmer,ÂŽ Leishman said. ÂBut heÂs left such a great legacy, and IÂm sure he will be proud of how everything has gone this week.ÂŽ The occasion was no less joyous. LeishmanÂs final act was a 45-yard pitch from short of the 18th green that ran out to 3 feet, a putt that looked a lot closer when he saw the replay on television. He calmly knocked that in for a 3-under 69. Onto the green ran his two sons, ages 5 and 3, as wife Audrey waited for him. Just two years ago, Leishman worried he wouldnÂt have her. He was called away during practice at Augusta National upon learning his wife was suffering toxic shock syndrome. Doctors put her in a coma to help fight the infection. ÂItÂs been a wild ride and it makes golf ... I want to do it well, but it makes it less important. ItÂs not life and death,ÂŽ Leishman said. ÂItÂs just great to be able to share this with someone.ÂŽ The oldest boy, Harvey, kept asking him when he was going to bring home the trophy. This was a big one. To honor Palmer, who died in September, the PGA Tour now awards a three-year exemption and raised the purse to $8.7 million, meaning Leishman won $1,566,000 „ just $295,857 less than what Palmer won in his PGA Tour career. Leishman finished at 11-under 277. Kisner and Hoffman, tied for the 54-hole lead, each closed with a 73 and had their chances. Kisner had a three-shot lead at the turn, but he didnÂt make a birdie over his last 11 holes. Hoffman shot 39 on the front nine, rallied to get back into a share of the lead when Kisner faltered with a pair of bogeys and then three-putted for par on the 16th and made bogey from the back bunker on the 17th. ÂI had it right there in the palm of my hand to win, and I didnÂt get it done,ÂŽ Kisner said. Rory McIlroy had as good a chance as anyone, storming into a share of the lead by hooking a wedge around a tree, over the water and over the green on the 16th, then nearly holing the eagle chip. He had a 30-foot birdie putt to tie for the lead on the 18th, and after seeing that Leishman had made eagle on the 16th, gave it a good run. The putt went 8 feet by and three-putt for a 69 to finish two shots back. ÂThese things happen,ÂŽ McIlroy said. ÂBut IÂm pleased with how I went. Ten under for the weekend around here is good scoring, and I can take a lot of positives from it going into next week.ÂŽ Leishman was lurking all day, and a 6-foot putt to save par from a bunker on the 15th kept his hopes going. The turning point came on the par-5 16th, playing only 515 yards with the wind, and LeishmanÂs tee shot left him only a 9-iron to the green that he tugged to the left. Standing over the putt, he backed off and recalled the same putt from a practice round Tuesday. He missed it by 3 feet to the left. ÂSo I read it and I was over that putt and I actually remembered that I hit that putt, so I backed off, took another practice swing and adjusted my read,ÂŽ he said. It poured into the heart of the cup for an eagle and the lead. In the group behind him, HoffmanÂs approach to the 16th was inches away from staying on top shelf. He rammed it 8 feet by and three-putted. KisnerÂs approach from a fairway bunker just ran off to the right, behind a bunker that left him a difficult flop shot. It came up short and into the bunker, and he had to scramble for par. Leishman was No. 62 in the world and only had two weeks left to secure a spot in the Masters. The victory takes care of that.PRO GOLF: Arnold Palmer InvitationalLate eagle carries Leishman to victory at Bay HillAP PHOTOGraeme McDowell, left, of Northern Ireland, and Sam Saunders, right, grandson of Arnold Palmer, help put a sweater on Marc Leishman, of Australia, during the trophy presentation after winning the Arnold Palmer Invitational golf tournament Sunday in Orlando. ÂIt helps me going through the leg thing,ÂŽ Stamkos said. ÂTaking that first hit or fall, stuff like that, when you trust the repair. (Friday) was a good step.ÂŽ Stamkos had another good day Saturday, pushing himself hard for 30 minutes after a lot of his teammates left the optional morning skate. ÂHopefully after a few more of those you gain confidence,ÂŽ Stamkos said. Whether Stamkos returns Tuesday against Arizona or at all during the regular season remains to be seen. But you can tell there are many people around the league rooting for Stamkos to make it back. Said Penguins star Sidney Crosby: ÂIf thereÂs anybody thatÂs going to bounce back, it is him.ÂŽ SLAP SHOTS: Killorn, the LightningÂs player union rep, met with NHLPA chief Donald Fehr while the team was in New York last week and had plenty to discuss. The NHLÂs participation in the 2018 Olympics is in doubt, but Killorn said itÂs important to the players that they can go. And superstars will have to take the lead, such as the Capitals Alex Ovechkin, who has said he plans to go even if the NHL doesnÂt agree. ÂTheyÂre really the ones that help the league be successful, so I think owners will have to listen to what they say,ÂŽ Killorn said. Another big topic is the salary cap, which could go up $2.5 million to $3 million next season, especially if players agree to the 5 percent escalator, a clause theyÂve used every year but 2006-07 since the cap was instituted in 2005-06. But that would increase players escrow contributions, which have been around 15 percent. ÂAt what point do we have to be like, ÂThis escrow is getting out of hand,  Killorn said. ÂWe have an option in Â19 to go back to the bargaining table (with an opt-out clause in the collective bargaining agreement), and weÂll probably use that.ÂŽLIGHTNINGFrom Page 1Busch took the lead with a quick pit stop during a caution flag and led for 113 laps before heading to the pits after LoganoÂs crash. The series of runner-up finishes gave Larson the Cup points lead, the first time Chip Ganassi Racing has led the points race this late in the season since 2002. Larson, with two new tires on his Chevrolet, came out of the late pit stop with two new tires ahead of BuschÂs Toyota and had the best chance to catch Newman. But he couldnÂt find a way to get around the veteran. Logano won the first stage and Chase Elliott the se cond in NASCARÂs new three-stage racing system. Elliott dominated the second stage but lost the lead after Matt Kenseth, like Logano, blew a right front tire and slammed into the wall on the 193rd lap of the 314-lap race. In the ensuing pit stop, Busch got out quicker than Elliott to take the lead. Blown tires were a common site on the hot pavement.LOGANOÂS WOESLogano started on the pole and won on the same track in the next-to-last race of last season. He was in third place coming out of the pits during a caution flag between the second and third series but was penalized for speeding on pit row.

Two strokes behind Stricker with three holes to play, Lehman closed with two birdies and a par for a 7-under 66 and a one-stroke victory over playing partner Stricker. Stricker followed his second-round 63 with a 70. He was trying to become the 19th player to win in his “ rst start on the 50-andover tour and “ rst since Miguel Angel Jimenez in 2014. Stricker bogeyed the par-3 16th, matched Lehman with a birdie on the par-5 17th, and bogeyed the par-4 18th after hitting a 3-wood drive left into the water. The 58-year-old Lehman won for the “ rst time since the 2015 SAS Championship, “ nishing at 20-under 199 on Omni Tucson NationalÂs Catalina Course. He won the 1996 British Open and four other PGA Tour titles. Stricker turned 50 on Feb. 23. The 12-time PGA Tour winner will captain the U.S. Presidents Cup team in September. He missed the cut last week in the PGA TourÂs Valspar Championship. Lehman erased a threestroke de“ cit on the “ rst two holes, making a birdie and eagle, while Stricker opened with his “ rst bogey of the week. By BETH HARRISAssociated PressINDIAN WELLS, Calif. „ Roger Federer defeated Stan Wawrinka 6-4, 7-5 to win a record-tying fifth BNP Paribas Open title in the all-Swiss final. At 35 years and seven months, Federer became the oldest champion in the desert tournamentÂs history on Sunday, surpassing Jimmy Connors, who was 31 years and five months when he won in 1981. Federer tied the tourney record of Novak Djokovic, who lost in the fourth round, while winning his 90th career title, keeping him third behind Connors and Ivan Lendl on the alltime list in the Open era. Federer dropped serve just once in five matches, losing the first game of the second set against Wawrinka. Federer advanced to the semifinals via walkover when Nick Kyrgios withdrew. In an all-Russian womenÂs final, Elena Vesnina defeated Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-7 (6), 7-5, 6-4. Vesnina had never advanced beyond the third round in singles and just last year she lost in the first round of qualifying, although she has won three doubles titles at the tournament. She beat No. 2 seed Angelique Kerber and No. 12 Venus Williams on her way to the biggest final of her career at age 30. Kuznetsova is 0-3 in finals here, also finishing runner-up in 2007 and 2008. At age 31, Kuznetsova was the fifth-oldest women to reach the final. But the two-time major champion struggled playing with the lead as the No. 8 seed in front of hundreds of empty seats. ÂI didnÂt feel good today because she was very aggressive and I was a little bit out of my game,ÂŽ Kuznetsova said. ÂI couldnÂt figure out a lot the wind and stuff like that. But still, I give a lot of credit to her because she was aggressive.ÂŽ Kuznetsova led 4-2 in the third before 14thseeded Vesnina broke her twice in sweeping the final four games of the match. Kuznetsova served one of her nine aces to lead 4-1 in the second, prompting Vesnina to bring out her coach-father Sergey Vesnin for a chat. It worked. Vesnina reeled off four straight games to lead 5-4. Her forehand error led to KuznetsovaÂs break in the 10th game that tied it 5-all. But Vesnina broke back and served out the set 7-5. Kuznetsova had luck on her side early, winning the first set on a net cord in the tiebreaker. She gave the traditional wave acknowledging her good fortune to Vesnina, who had blown leads of 2-0 and 4-2. Vesnina had 46 winners and 49 unforced errors. She successfully gambled at the net, winning 24 of 32 points during the three-hour match. ÂI tried my best and she won because she was more aggressive,ÂŽ Kuznetsova said. ÂI was too passive. ThatÂs it. Too much behind and didnÂt serve well.ÂŽTENNIS: BNP Paribas OpenFederer beats Wawrinka for 5th Indian Wells title AP PHOTORyan Newman (31) drives toward the finish line during the NASCAR Cup Series auto race at Phoenix International Raceway Sunday in Avondale, Ariz.

Page 4 SP www.yoursun.com Monday, March 20, 2017 / The Sun Florida held Virginia (23-11) to a season-low 17 points in the first half and 29.6 percent shooting on the night. The Cavaliers hadnÂt scored fewer than 40 points since December 2013, a 48-38 loss to the Badgers. The turning point in this game came late in the first half, when the Gators started a 21-0 run that was their most lopsided of the season. Speedy guards Kasey Hill and Chris Chiozza repeatedly broke down VirginiaÂs Âpack lineÂŽ defense, creating open looks for Leon and Robinson. ÂWe just had had to get them uncomfortable and play our tempo,ÂŽ said Robinson, who scored 24 points in his NCAA opener. ÂWe knew if we played at their methodical tempo, it would have been a tough game for us. We tried to stay aggressive on defense and get in transition as best as we can, and that turned to great offense.ÂŽ Florida closed the first half with a 12-0 spurt and built a 14-point lead at the break. The Gators came out of the locker room with the same intensity, scoring nine straight points that included two 3-pointers from Leon. Virginia coach Tony Bennett called time out, but it was too little, too late. The Gators were up 23 points against a team that has dealt with offensive challenges all season. ÂIf weÂre not shooting well, itÂs hard for us,ÂŽ Bennett said. It surely didnÂt help that the Cavaliers played without forward Isaiah Wilkins, who missed the game while dealing with strep throat. If all three depart, sophomore Terance Mann would be the leading retu rning scorer (8.4 points). Even with Bacon and Isaac, coach Leonard Hamilton extolled his teamÂs depth throughout the year as he used 12 players per game. Freshmen guards Trent Forrest and CJ Walker each averaged over 12 minutes per game and will be counted on more next season. Florida State was the second tallest team in Division I but lose two 7-footers with the graduations of Michael Ojo and Jarquez Smith. Christ Koumadje, who is the tallest player in program history at 7-4, could move into the starting lineup after finishing second on the team in blocked shots with 40. With Smith and OjoÂs departures, Hamilton added some size in the incoming class with 7-1 center Ike Obiagu, who is considered one of the top shot blockers in the country. The Seminoles got off to a fast start. After going 5-1 during a stretch where they faced six straight ranked opponents, they were 18-2 and ranked sixth, which was their highest ranking since 1993. They barely played over .500 ball after that, going 9-8. All but two of the losses were by double figures. Hamilton went to more of an up-tempo, transition offense this season since he had more versatile and athletic players. Florida State averaged 82.1 points, which is the most in HamiltonÂs 15 seasons at the school, but they struggled late in the season from the perimeter and when fo rced to play more of a halfcourt style when teams played zone defense.SEMINOLESFrom Page 1 NCAA TOURNAMENT ROUND OF 32A look at SundayÂs action SundayÂs starMORITZ WAGNER, MICHIGAN: The 6-for-11 forward poured in 26 points to lead the Wolverines into the round of 16.Looking aheadBIG TEN SURGE: This down year for Big Ten basketball just might end on an up note in the NCAA Tournament. Eighth-seeded Wisconsin took out No. 1 overall seed and defending national champion Villanova in a second-round game Saturday, and No. 7 Michigan ousted No. 2 Louisville on Sunday. In between, No. 4 Purdue defeated No. 5 Iowa State. None of the Big TenÂs seven tournament teams were seeded higher than a No. 4. Now it has three teams in regional semi“ nals, matching last yearÂs total, and would have had a fourth if No. 9 Michigan State had been able to upset No. 1 Kansas. The Big Ten went into the tournament No. 4 in conference RPI behind the ACC, Big 12 and Big East. ÂYou guys seem to get a theme, whether itÂs good or bad. Tell them to go play Michigan,ÂŽ Purdue coach Matt Painter told reporters in Milwaukee after his teamÂs win over the Cyclones ÂPeople that donÂt think our league is any good, tell them to go play Wisconsin. TheyÂre not an eighth seed. I donÂt understand that. You donÂt understand basketball if you put Wisconsin as the eighth seed. Wisconsin is one of the toughest teams in the country, period.ÂŽ MichiganÂs 73-69 upset of Louisville exempli“ es the role reversals between the Atlantic Coast Conference and Big Ten this postseason. The ACC led all conferences with nine bids and was billed as the clear-cut pick as the top league in the nation. The ACC didnÂt have any regional semi“ nalists as of late Sunday afternoon and is down to just two teams left in the tournament, North Carolina and Duke. The Tar Heels edged Arkansas and Duke was to meet South Carolina on Sunday. HURLEY WATCHES SON: After 11th-seeded Rhode Island closed the “ rst half on a 14-2 run for a 46-38 lead over third-seeded Oregon at intermission, Bob Hurley was lost for words. Just a plain proud father moment, indeed. Hurley is watching son, “ fth-year Rams coach Dan Hurley, as the program returned to the NCAA Tournament for the “ rst time in 18 years and won its “ rst game against Creighton for Rhode IslandÂs “ rst NCAA victory since reaching the 1998 Elite Eight and losing to Stanford. Associated PressMoe Wagner gritted his teeth, pumped his fist and stuck out his mouthpiece to the crowdÂs delight Sunday in Indianapolis. A few minutes later, the tough German took a couple more bows „ first on the baseline in front of MichiganÂs bench, then with the rest of his teammates near midcourt. Suddenly, the often overlooked 6-foot11 forward was the well-deserved center of attention. Wagner scored a career high 26 points, made the basket that spurred MichiganÂs furious second-half rally and capped the day with a 3-pointer to give the Wolverines the lead for good as they knocked off second-seeded Lo uisville 73-69 to reach the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2014. ÂHeÂs got the mentality where he wants to make the play,ÂŽ said Derrick Walton Jr., who drove in for MichiganÂs final basket with 29 seconds left. ÂHe just makes the right play at all times. He has the calls to make the big plays, so we feed off him because heÂs not afraid of anything.ÂŽ WagnerÂs fearlessness has played a big part in MichiganÂs improbable late-season run. In late February, Michigan was just 19-11 and trying to keep its NCAA Tournament hopes alive. Since then, it has won seven straight, six coming after a frightening plane accident on their way to the Big Ten Tournament. So it seemed only fitting that the emotion, poise and momentum Michigan mustered over these past few weeks would help them fight their way off the ropes. Again. Trailing 45-36 with 16:09 to play, Wagner made a layup that started a 17-6 run to give Michigan its first lead since the opening minutes of the game. When Wagner knocked down a 3-pointer with 6:39 to go to break a 55-55 tie, the Wolverines never trailed again. KANSAS 90, MICHIGAN STATE 70: In Tulsa, Okla., Josh Jackson scored 14 of his 23 points in the second half to help Kansas pull away late and reach the Sweet 16 for a second straight year with a 90-70 victory over Michigan State on Sunday. Frank Mason III added 20 points for the top-seeded Jayhawks (30-4), who have advanced to the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament in nine of coach Bill SelfÂs 14 seasons. Devonte Graham added 18 points and Landen Lucas had 10 for the Jayhawks, who shot 53.1 percent (34 of 64) in the win. Miles Bridges scored 22 points to lead Michigan State (20-15) despite leaving brie” y in the “ rst half with an injury. Nick Ward also “ nished in double “ gures with 13 points and Joshua Langford had 10 for the Spartans. OREGON 75, RHODE ISLAND 72: Tyler Dorsey hit a contested go-ahead 3-pointer from the top of the arc with 38.4 seconds to play, E.C. Matthews airballed a long 3 in the waning moments trying to force overtime, and thirdseeded Oregon rallied in the second half to beat upstart No. 11 Rhode Island. Dorsey also tied the game with a 3 with 1:45 remaining on the way to 27 points before teammate Dillon Brooks took a charge on the other end for Oregon (31-5). With OregonÂs season on the brink of an early NCAA Tournament exit, Brooks found his shooting stroke as he typically does and scored 19 points despite a 7-for-20 shooting day. Dorsey made 9 of 10 shots with four 3-pointers.MIDWEST REGIONALWagner carries MichiganSOUTH REGIONALKENTUCKY 65, WICHITA STATE 62: Bam Adebayo timed it perfectly, slapping the shot away with his right hand less than a second before the buzzer sounded. For the 13th game in a row, KentuckyÂs fabulous freshmen had their hands all over another win. Wham, Bam, move on ÂCats, right into the Sweet 16. The youngest team in March Madness grew up in the closing minutes on Sunday and sent Wichita State to yet another second-round heartbreak in the NCAA Tournament ÂTheyÂre young, but they have a will to win and play with courage and are skilled basketball players and great kids who share,ÂŽ coach John Calipari said. The freshman trio made all of the signi“ cant plays in the “ nal minutes. DeÂAaron Fox had 14 points, including a late steal and dunk. Malik Monk blocked a shot and made two free throws in the “ nal 13 seconds. Adebayo had 13 points and 10 rebounds, and he “ nished it off by swatting away Landry ShametÂs 3-point attempt as it left his hand with less than a second left. ÂHe pumpfaked, and I knew he had to shoot it so I just went up and tried to block it,ÂŽ Adebayo said. As simple as that. Kentucky (31-5) moved into the Sweet 16 for the seventh time in nine years. The Shockers (31-5) were wiping away tears after another crushing second-round loss. NORTH CAROLINA 72, ARKANSAS 65: Kennedy Meeks had 16 points and a huge tip-in with 44.2 seconds left to help North Carolina barely avoid a huge upset by rallying to beat Arkansas. Justin Jackson added 15 points for the Tar Heels (29-7), including the dunk that capped a game-closing 12-0 run by the South RegionÂs No. 1 seed to help it survive a wild game. North Carolina led by 17 points after a dominating start, blew that lead and trailed 65-60 with about 3 minutes left then came up with a response be“ tting its veteran experience. Isaiah Hicks came up big late, too, with a dunk and four free throws in the “ nal 2 minutes to help UNC survive. Daryl Macon scored 19 points to lead the eighth-seeded Razorbacks (26-10), who did everything right in the second half „ except close out the Tar Heels.

Page 6 SP www.yoursun.com Monday, March 20, 2017 / The SunWhile his teammates have spent the previous 21 games preparing for the regular season, Rasmus has been working hard just to be able to get on the field. ÂIÂm on that training table getting elbows dug into my groin and some of the lower extremities which isnÂt too fun,ÂŽ Rasmus said. ÂBut thatÂs part of it. You have to get all those things right. Coming off the surgeries, I have a lot of scar tissue, working my body to get back.ÂŽ If you ask athletes what their favorite part of playing their sport is Â… or what theyÂll miss the most after they retire Â… many will tell you itÂs the camaraderie they have with teammates. From the outside looking in, it may appear as if Rasmus missed out on a month of connecting with his teammates, but despite not being on the field, he has found plenty of ways to get that camaraderie in. ÂIÂm not on the field with them, but weÂre in the clubhouse every day. ThatÂs a big part of it,ÂŽ he said. ÂA lot of these guys have seen me play, so they know I play the game hard and I try to play the right way. ÂI think the biggest thing is coming in every day with an attitude thatÂs positive and wanting to play the game. Picking guys up when times are tough. Being somebody who they can lean on to give them that spark and give them energy. I try to do that myself. Every day I try to pick guys up and try to smile as much as I can. This game can wear you down and the failures can get to you.ÂŽ Despite a few setbacks this spring, Rasmus feels confident he can get to where he needs to be in order to be ready for Opening Day. The Rays, who signed him to a one-year, $5 million contract, will rely not only on his left-handed bat but his defensive skills in the outfield. Rasmus has the ability, when healthy, to hit .275 with 25 homers, 70 RBI and 70 runs. He also ranked near the top of the league in outfield assists last year as a leftfielder.By BRYAN LEVINESports WriterPORT CHARLOTTE „ Prior to SundayÂs game was the Rays sixth-annual Cut For a Cure campaign where players, coaches and front office staff shave their heads in supports of the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. The Rays raised $16,350 with 20 fans and 35 players/ coaches/staff participating by having their heads trimmed by kids with cancer. ÂItÂs a special day,ÂŽ manager Kevin Cash said. ÂIÂll donate, but I wonÂt be shaving. IÂm starting to get thin up here, man. I have to be careful. ItÂs good support from the players and the staff. ItÂs a fun, charitable event that weÂre proud to be part of.ÂŽ Among others, president of baseball operations Matt Silverman had his hair shaved by 5-year-old Cooper Vollmer. Right-hander Chase Whitley got his hair cut by 8-year-old Joshua Fisher, who also trimmed second baseman Brad MillerÂs beard. Infielder Daniel Robertson got a new hairdoo from 3-yearold Avalynn Luciano. ÂItÂs really cool seeing the kids smiles,ÂŽ said pitcher Ryan Garton, who also participated in the event. ÂTheyÂve been through a lot. Being able to put a smile on those faces, you could do anything for that. IÂm happy to be able to do that for those kids and it makes me feel a lot better during the day.ÂŽWBC ROUNDUPChris Archer learned Sunday morning that he wonÂt be used by Team USA in the semifinals or final of the World Baseball Classic. With the Dominican Republic eliminated Saturday night, relievers Alex Colome and Jumbo Diaz will be returning to camp most likely later today. Diaz was acquired by Tampa Bay while he was playing in the WBC, so they have yet to see him in in a Rays uniform. Jose Alvarado, who was with Venezuela, also will be returning to camp in the coming days, and according to Cash, will be optioned down to Minor League camp. Jake Odorizzi was on the list of possible players who could be used for Team USA, but his number wonÂt be called. Still out there in the WBC for the Rays is starting pitcher Jose De Leon. He joined Puerto Rico last week, and tossed three scoreless innings against Venezuela. De Leon allowed just three hits and had five strike outs.SCRATCHEDEvan Longoria was scratched from SundayÂs lineup with neck stiffness, according to the Rays.KIERMAIER DEALThe Rays announced late Saturday night they will be holding a press conference today to make an announcement. That announcement is more or less guaranteed to be about Kevin KiermaierÂs new contract. Reports have it as a six-year, $53.5 million deal. Look for more information on Tuesday.RAYS NOTEBOOKHITTER OF THE GAME Steven S ouza Jr., Rays: He went 2-for-3 at the palte with a ground-rule double and a single. He came around to score after his second-inning two-bagger, and accounted for the game-winner. Souza also later scored a second run in the seventh inning. PITCHER OF THE GAME Jerad Eichhoff, Phillies: Overshadowed by what a group of Rays were doing on the mound, Eickhoff had a very strong six-inning stint. The righthander allowed two runs on three hits, but had nine strikeouts in the loss. KEY INNING First 7.1 innings: Four Rays pitchers combined for a perfect game all the way into the eighth inning. The Phillies sent 22 batters to the plate before a double by Tommy Joseph broke the streak with Danny Farquhar on the mound. Justin Marks tossed three perfect frames, Tommy Hunter added two more, Xavier Cedeno had one inning, and Farquhar was perfect for four batters before allowing the double. PROSPECT WATCH Daniel Robertson, Rays: Getting the late start after Evan Longoria was scratched prior to the game with a stiff neck, Robertson had a pair of hits, one knocking in a run in the seventh inning. THEY SAID IT ÂI de“ nitely want to see what he looks like.ÂŽ „Rays manager Kevin Cash said, with a laugh, of newly-acquired 6-foot-4, 280-pound reliever Jumbo DiazPITTSBURGH (14-7-1) at TAMPA BAY (11-9-2)WHEN: Today, 1:05 p.m. WHERE: Charlotte Sports Park, Port Charlotte SCHEDULED STARTERS: LH Blake Snell vs. RH Jameson Taillon PITCHING PROBABLES RAYS: LH Blake Snell (start), RH Shawn Tolleson, RH David Carpenter, RH Neil Wagner, RH Diego Moreno, LH Xavier Cedeno.

Page 8 The Sun Classified E/N/Cads.yoursun.netMonday, March 20, 2017 DEAR DR. ROACH: Recently, I was diagnosed with essential thrombocythemia. The recommended treatment is the drug hydroxyurea because I turned 60 this past year and have a mutation in the JAK 2 gene. If I had not turned 60, the recommended treatment would be aspirin alone. Currently, I am taking the recommended 81-mg aspirin dose daily. I have a very healthy lifestyle: IÂm an avid runner, with workouts twice a week at the gym, and I have no history of blood clots, etc. I have no symptoms at this time. IÂve been getting monthly blood draws to monitor my platelet counts. They are climbing; my last was 659. Looking at the possible side effects of hydroxyurea, I am hesitant to start that course of treatment just because I am over 60. What is your opinion of my wait-andsee attitude? „ B.T. ANSWER: Essential thrombocythemia is a myeloproliferative neoplasm, a case of the body making too many w hite or red blood cells or platelets. Whether itÂs a blood cancer or not is debatable. It has some characteristics that are cancer-like, but the main concerns with ET are blood clotting, paradoxical bleeding and symptoms. It can rarely transform to acute myeloid leukemia, and there is no treatment to prevent the transformation. Since you have no symptoms, the main risks to you are abnormal blood clotting and bleeding. Your clotting risk is considered intermediate, because of the JAK2 mutation and your being over age 60. In one study, that was associated with a clot risk of about 3.6 percent per year. In another study „ of some patients similar to you and others w ith a history of clotting „ 24 percent of people on aspirin alone had a clot in 27 months, whereas among those taking aspirin and hydroxyurea, only 3. 6 percent had a clot. Because you have no history of clotting, the bene“t for you from the hydroxyurea will likely be smaller than that seen in this study, but still pretty signi“cant. Bleeding may occur because the platelets, although numerous, are not normal. About 5 percent of people with ET will have a serious bleeding event. Hydroxyurea certainly has side effects, including rash, oral ulcers and nail changes, but most people tolerate it pretty well, in my experience. I feel the reduction in risk of serious clotting events is worth a small risk of side effects, but only you can make the choice. I hope this information allows you to make a more informed choice. DEAR DR. ROACH: I am in my 80s, and for a year or so have been experiencing some imbalance. One morning I woke up and moved 2 feet to my left when I took my “rst step. Could this be ParkinsonÂs disease, or is it just normal aging? I fell once and was unable to get up until my son helped me. My neighbors recommended that I get an alert device. „ Anon. ANSWER: Abnormalities in gait and movement are common as people get older, but I am concerned that you may have more than just normal aging. Making a speci“c diagnosis of ParkinsonÂs or other movement disorder is not easy. It is best done by an expert, such as a neurologist, some of whom specialize in movement disorders speci“cally. I agree with your neighbors that everyone at risk of a fall should consider a device that can allow them to easily call for help. Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possibl e.

You had a recipe for modeling clay that we can make at home „ please repeat it! „ Sonya in Alabama Sonya, happy to, and itÂs soooo easy! Here is the recipe: 2 cups baking soda 1 cup cornstarch 1 1‡4 cups water Mix the cornstarch and baking soda in a saucepan, then add the water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until blended. Empty onto a plate and cover with a damp cloth until cool. Knead until smooth, then break into sections. You can add a drop or two of food coloring for fun. Store unused clay in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Baking soda is a must-have around the house. Before putting new cat litter down, sprinkle a little baking soda in the pan to help keep it fresh. Cats donÂt like change, so if Kitty stops using the box, dump the soda! „ Heloi seCustomer calls out employeesHints from Heloise BUSINESS & SERVICE DIRECTORY Make your business a part of it!

There are new questions emerging from your mind. Knowing comes from not knowing. Your curiosity will lead you to interesting places „ plac es you might not have dared to go, say, a year ago. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Meetings can be productive, or they can be a waste of time, but you'll never know if y ou don't show u p Also the one who doesn't show up gets talked about. So go where the discussion is happening, and bring your A-game. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You're good at complimenting people. Your attention is a form of praise. You'll give it fully because you're totally engaged in the moment and in what people are doing and saying right now. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will stand up and be counted for what you believe, even though it happens to be in disagreement with what's going on in your circle. Starting the discussion is a step in the right direction. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Countries, counties and companies all have a culture. Your family has a culture, too. You'll understand more about what that is and what it feels like when you can see it from an outsider's point of view. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). In some ways, you're on your own, but you don't have to totally wing it because there are people around you who will be excellent examples. Copy them until you learn. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You've built good boundaries around yourself and your work, and they are rmly in place today. The safety you feel inside your boundaries allows you to work in full concentration. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). One thing you can count on is that however good or bad a situation may be, it will change. The impermanence of today's situation is what makes it precious, interesting and beautiful. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Love and risk go together. You can't have one without the other. Also, they work in balance with each other. The more you love the more you risk. Don't worry; it will always be worth it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This is one of those times when you think you need an opportunity, but what you really need is much simpler and readily available, too. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Acceptance is a magic ba lm now. There's so much that can be healed through simply agreeing that "this is the way it is, and this is ne." Acceptance is the way to power. TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 20). Your responsibilities are many and they are also few, depending on how you look at it. With a judicious eye, you'll stop doing what was never your responsibility to begin with. You'll set the balance right and claim more of what's really yours. Strive for professional mastery in April. August and October celebrate love. Sagittarius and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 16, 33, 39 and 45. DEAR ABBY: IÂve had a feeling my wife is about to leave me for another man. For the last few months he has been coming to the bar where she works and saying stuff to her. I donÂt know what he says, but he has also been texting her and posting things on her Facebook page. She told me heÂs only a friend, but since he has been coming around at her work, sheÂs been really cold to me at night. We donÂt have sex like we used to, and she doesnÂt let me hold her when we are in bed. Plus, she used to sleep nude, but now she wears pajamas to bed. What should I do? She told me I need to get help because IÂm jealous of him. „ JEALOUS IN OREGON DEAR JEALOUS: I think ÂhelpÂŽ would be a good idea. Tell your wife youÂre willing to get some on the condition that she come with you. ItÂs called marriage counseling, and clearly you both are in need of some. Your doctor can refer you to a licensed therapist. Also, if you have a religious adviser, make an appointment to talk with him or her. If your wife refuses, do both of these things without her. Please donÂt wait. DEAR ABBY: IÂm a 15-year-old sophomore. People in my class openly share their opinions and act disgusted when a slightly older man and a younger woman are together, or vice versa. I get offended when my classmates make these comments because my mom is 39 and my stepfather is 27. They love each other very much, and I donÂt think age should interfere. Am I oversensitive because IÂm offended by these comments? „ AGE IS JUST A NUMBER DEAR AGE: Becoming offended solves nothing, unless the comments are made speci“cally about your mom and stepdad. ItÂs my observation that people with little life experience tend to be judgmental about things they know nothing about, and 15-yearolds are no exception. Perhaps when your classmates are older, theyÂll realize that people donÂt fall in love Âby the numbersÂŽ and that itÂs a mistake to generalize. DEAR ABBY: When I was growing up, I was always told to remove my shoes when visiting another personÂs house, especially if they have new ”ooring. Now that IÂm an adult and building a new house, I would like to ask people to remove their shoes upon entering my home. I have young children and expect family with other small kids will visit. IÂd like to keep the ”oors clean and maintain their good condition. Would it be tacky or rude to ask this of visitors? „ SHOELESS IN ST. LOUIS DEAR SHOELESS: I donÂt think so, but some people may. In Japan, removing oneÂs shoes before entering a dwelling is customary. The soles of shoes are covered with germs, and if small children crawl around on your ”oors, itÂs not too much to ask. Be sure to warn prospective guests in advance so they can bring their own slippers, or keep a supply of them by your front door.
