By CARLA K. JOHNSONAP MEDICAL WRITERSEATTLE „ The next big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccine. After decades of limited success, scientists say research has reached a turning point, with many predicting more vaccines will be out in “ ve years. These arent traditional vaccines that prevent disease, but shots to shrink tumors and stop cancer from coming back. Targets for these experimental treatments include breast and lung cancer, with gains reported this year for deadly skin cancer melanoma and pancreatic cancer. Were getting something to work. Now we need to get it to work better,Ž said Dr. James Gulley, who helps lead a center at the National Cancer Institute that develops immune therapies, including cancer treatment vaccines. More than ever, scientists understand how cancer hides from the bodys immune system. Cancer vaccines, like other immunotherapies, boost the immune system to “ nd and kill cancer cells. And some new ones use mRNA, which was developed for cancer but “ rst used for COVID-19 vaccines. For a vaccine to work, it needs to teach the immune systems T cells to recognize cancer as dangerous, said Dr. Nora Disis of UW Medicines Cancer Vaccine Institute in Seattle. Once trained, T cells can travel anywhere in the body to hunt down danger. If you saw an activated T cell, it almost has feet,Ž she said. You can see it crawling through the blood vessel to get out into the tissues.Ž Patient volunteers are crucial to the research.Big advance in cancer treatment could be a vaccineIt can shrink tumors, stop cancer from coming back AP PHOTO/LINDSEY WASSON Registered nurse Erika Obrietan administers the third dose of an experimental breast cancer vaccine to patient Kathleen Jade at University of Washington Medical Center „ Montlake, on May 30, in Seattle. Jade, 50, learned she had breast cancer in late February. Shes getting the vac cine to see if it will shrink her tumor before surgery. Even if that chance is a little bit, I felt like its worth it,Ž said Jade, who is also getting standard treatment. 2016 PULITZER WINNER € FPA GOLD MEDAL WINNER 2022 SCOTUS clears way for OSU lawsuitsPAGE 7A Sarasota County Schools agree to superintendent contractPAGE 1B5 teens killed after vehicle lands in retention pondPAGE 6A SUN The DailyCharlotte € DeSoto € SarasotaTUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | $2.50 FIRST IN LOCAL NEWS YOURSUN.COMVOL. 131, NO. 177 BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESSRussian President Vladimir Putin on Monday blasted organizers of a weekend revolt, the gravest threat yet to his power, as traitorsŽ who played into the hands of Ukraines government and its allies. Speaking in a stern tone and looking tired in a “ ve-minute TV address near midnight, Putin sought to project stability. He tried to strike a balance between criticizing the uprisings perpetrators to prevent another crisis, and not antagonizing the bulk of the mercenaries and their hardline supporters, some of whom are incensed at the Kremlins handling of the situation. Putin, whose troops are stretched thin in the face of a Ukrainian countero ensive, praised the rank and “ le mercenaries for not letting the situation descend into major bloodshed.Ž And he said the nation had stood united, although there had been localized signs of support for the uprising. Earlier in the day, the head of the mercenary Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, who led the rebellion, defended his shortlived insurrection. He again taunted Russias military, but said he hadnt been seeking to stage a coup against Putin. On Friday, Prigozhin had called for an armed rebellion to oust the military leadership. Putins address was announced by his spokesman in advance and billed by Russian state media as something that would de“ ne the fate of Russia.Ž In fact, the address didnt yield groundbreaking developments. Abbas Gallyamov, a former Kremlin speechwriter turned political analyst, called the address weak. In a Facebook post, he said it was a sign that Putin is acutely dissatis“ ed with how he looked in this By JIM TURNERNEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDATALLAHASSEE „ More school vouchers.

According to the investigative report, Loge created a hostile work environment by harassing a teacher at the school he led for six years. The investigation shows an unnamed teacher reported being sexually harassed by Loge who texted her before, during and after school, commented on her appearance and referred to her as princess.Ž On May 8, Loge was placed on paid administrative leave. The teacher alleged Loge regularly visited her classroom giving her snacks. He went to her classroom before school, during planning time, instructional time and after school.Ž She avoided being alone with Loge and would hide in the closet in her classroomŽ so he wouldnt visit her. Instead she would tell him she was training or at a doctors appointment. According to the report, the educator feared retaliation and was fearful to come forward based on his (Loges) position of authority over her.Ž She showed text messages from Loge from before and after school hours.

In 1957, Hurricane Audrey slammed into coastal Louisiana and Texas as a Category 4 storm; the official death toll from the storm was placed at 390, although a variety of state, federal and local sources have estimated the number of fatalities at between 400 and 600. In 1974, President Richard Nixon opened an official visit to the Soviet Union. In 1991, Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, the first Black jurist to sit on the nations highest court, announced his retirement.

www.yoursun.com | The Daily Sun TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 PAGE 3A By COLLEEN SLEVIN and JESSE BEDAYN ASSOCIATED PRESSCOLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. „ The person who killed “ve people at a Colorado Springs nightclub in 2022 was sentenced to life in prison on Monday, after victims called the shooter a monsterŽ and cowardŽ who hunted down revelers in a calculated attack on a sanctuary for the LGBTQ+ community. During an emotional courtroom hearing packed with victims and family members, Anderson Lee Aldrich pleaded guilty to “ve counts of murder and 46 counts of attempted murder … one for each person at Club Q on the night of the shooting. Aldrich also pleaded no contest to two hate crimes, one a felony and the other a misdemeanor. This thing sitting in this court room is not a human, it is a monster,Ž said Jessica Fierro, whose daughters boyfriend was killed that night. The devil awaits with open arms.Ž The guilty plea comes just seven months after the shooting and spares victims families and survivors a long and potentially painful trial. More charges could be coming: The FBI con“rmed Monday it was working with the U.S. Justice Departments civil rights division on a separate investigation into the attack. People in the courtroom wiped away tears as the judge explained the charges and read out the names of the victims. Judge Michael McHenry also issued a stern rebuke of Aldrichs actions, connecting it to societal woes. You are targeting a group of people for their simple existence,Ž McHenry said. Like too many other people in our culture, you chose to “nd a power that day behind the trigger of a gun, your actions re”ect the deepest malice of the human heart, and malice is almost always born of ignorance and fear.Ž The killings rekindled memories of the 2016 massacre at the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, that killed 49 people. Relatives and friends of victims were able to give statements in court Monday to remember their loved ones. Survivors spoke about how their lives were forever altered just before midnight on Nov. 19 when the suspect walked into Club Q and indiscriminately “red an AR-15-style semiautomatic ri”e.Colorado Springs LGBTQ+ club mass killer gets life in prison By TERRY SPENCER ASSOCIATED PRESSFORT LAUDERDALE „ A Florida sheris deputy ”ed to safety during the 2018 Parkland school massacre, putting his own life ahead of the children he was charged with protecting and giving the gunman time to fatally shoot several victims, prosecutors told jurors Monday during the closing arguments of his trial on child neglect charges. Broward County Deputy Scot Peterson could have located and stopped Nikolas Cruz as he carried out his Feb. 14, 2018, attack inside the three-story 1200 building at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, prosecutor Kristen Gomes told the jury. But instead of opening a door, looking in a window or seeking information from ”eeing students, he chose to take shelter next to an adjoining building, Gomes said. That prevented him from confronting Cruz before he reached the third ”oor, where six of Cruzs 17 killings were committed. Even if he hadnt killed Cruz, his presence would have distracted him, giving students and teachers time to ”ee or hide, or caused him to surrender or commit suicide, she said. Choose to go in or choose to run? Scot Peterson chose to run,Ž Gomes said. When the defendant ran, he left behind an unrestricted killer who spent the next four minutes and 15 seconds wandering the halls at his leisure. Because when Scot Peterson ran, he left them in a building with a predator unchecked.Ž But Petersons attorney, Mark Eiglarsh, argued that Peterson is being made a sacri“cial lambŽ for failures by elected ocials and administrators. He said the evidence proves Petersons insistence that the gunshots echoes prevented him from pinpointing Cruzs location is the truth and Peterson did everything he could under the circumstances. Criticizing his actions now is Monday morning quarterbackingŽ using facts that were unknown to Peterson in real time. He said the only person responsible for what happened that day is that monsterŽ Cruz. He said two dozen students, teachers and others testi“ed that they also could not pinpoint where the shots were coming from „ some of them from inside the building where the shooting happened. This whole hearing-based prosecution is ”awed and oensive,Ž Eiglarsh said. He said Peterson acted heroically during the shooting, staying put to transmit whatever information he had and would have charged into the building if he knew where the shooter was. But if he did that or went elsewhere without solid information and the shooter then killed others where Peterson had left, he would have been prosecuted for that. He was damned no matter what,Ž Eiglarsh said. Peterson, the schools on-campus deputy, is being tried for felony child neglect and other charges for the deaths and injuries on the third ”oor. He is not charged in connection with the deaths of 11 people killed on the “rst ”oor before he reached the building. It is the “rst time a U.S. law enforcement ocer has been tried in connection with a school shooting. Peterson, 60, sometimes looked down and shook his head during the prosecutions presentation. Several members of the victims families glared at Eiglarsh from the gallery during his argument. Prosecutors, during their two-week presentation, called to the witness stand students, teachers and law enforcement ocers who testi“ed about the horror they experienced and how they knew where Cruz was. Some said they knew for certain the shots were coming from the 1200 building. Prosecutors also called a training supervisor who testi“ed Peterson did not follow protocols for confronting an active shooter. Eiglarsh during his two-day presentation called several deputies who arrived during the shooting and students and teachers who testi“ed they did not think the shots were coming from the 1200 building. Peterson did not testify. Eiglarsh also emphasized the failure of the sheris radio system during the attack, which limited what Peterson heard from arriving deputies. Gomes said the radio system worked well during the critical “rst minutes of the attack, with Peterson being the one with the best information as he was within feet of the building.Prosecutor: Deputy fled during Parkland school massacre SOUTH FLORIDA SUNSENTINEL/AMY BETH BENNETTFormer Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School School Resource Ocer Scot Peterson sits at the defense table during his trial at the B roward County Courthouse on Friday in Fort Lauderdale. $999ea Signia,Phonak,Widex,Unitron,Starkey,Oticon,Audina,Hansaton,Microtech,Resound,Rexton,Sonic,Bernafonandmore.

Putin thanked members of his team for their work over the weekend, implying support for the embattled Shoigu. Earlier, the authorities released a video of Shoigu reviewing troops in Ukraine. Putin, who declined to name Prigozhin, said mutiny organizers had tried to force the groups soldiers to shoot their own.Ž He blamed Russias enemiesŽ and said they had miscalculated.Ž Western ocials have been muted in their public comments on the mutiny, and President Joe Biden said Monday that the U.S. and NATO were not involved. Speaking at the White House, Biden said he was cautious about speaking publicly because he wanted to give Putin no excuse to blame this on the West and blame this on NATO.Ž We made clear that we were not involved, we had nothing to do with it,Ž he said. Prigozhin said he had been acting to prevent the destruction of Wagner, his private military company. We started our march because of an injustice,Ž he said in an 11-minute statement Monday, giving no details about where he was or what his plans were. The injustice apparently was a government order requiring Wagner soldiers, if they want to remain “ghting, to sign contracts with the Defense Ministry by July 1, which might eectively disband the group despite its battle“eld successes in Ukraine. Prigozhin also accused Russias military of attacking his troops, prompting his march. The feud between the Wagner Group leader and military brass has festered throughout the war, erupting into mutiny when mercenaries left Ukraine to seize a military headquarters in the southern Russia city of Rostov. They rolled seemingly unopposed for hundreds of miles toward Moscow before turning around after less than 24 hours on Saturday. The Kremlin said it had made a deal for Prigozhin to move to Belarus and receive amnesty, along with his soldiers. There was no con“rmation of his whereabouts Monday. Prigozhin boasted that his march was a master classŽ on how Russias military should have carried out the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. He also mocked the military for security breaches that allowed Wagner to march 500 miles toward Moscow without facing resistance. It remained unclear what would ultimately happen to Prigozhin and his forces under the deal purportedly brokered by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko. Prigozhin said Lukashenko proposed “nding a way to let Wagner continue its work in a lawful jurisdiction.Ž That suggested Prigozhin might keep his military force, although it wasnt clear which jurisdiction he was referring to. Though the mutiny was brief, it was not bloodless. Russian media reported that several military helicopters and a communications plane were shot down by Wagner forces, killing at least 15. Prigozhin expressed regret for attacking the aircraft but said they were bombing his convoys. Russian media reported that a criminal case against Prigozhin hasnt been closed, despite earlier Kremlin statements, and some Russian lawmakers called for his head. In his address Monday, Putin didnt repeat threats he had made Saturday to punish the mutinys leaders. Andrei Gurulev, a retired general and current lawmaker who has clashed with the mercenary leader, said Prigozhin and his righthand man, Dmitry Utkin, deserve a bullet in the head.Ž And Nikita Yurefev, a city council member in St. Petersburg, said he “led a request with Russias Prosecutor Generals Oce and the Federal Security Service, or FSB, asking who would be punished for the rebellion. Russian media reported that Wagner oces in several Russian cities had reopened on Monday and the company had resumed enlisting recruits.REBELLIONFROM PAGE 1A UNCREDITED AP PHOTOYevgeny Prigozhin, owner of the Wagner Group military company, right, sits inside a military vehicle posing for a sele photo with a local civilian on Saturday on a street in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, prior to leaving an area of the headquarters of the Southern Military District. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Prigozhins troops who joined him in the uprising will not face prosecution and those who did not will be oered contracts by the Defense Ministry.

New Yorks boisterous throng strolled and danced down Fifth Avenue to Greenwich Village, cheering and waving rainbow ”ags to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall uprising, where a police raid on a gay bar triggered days of protests and launched the modern movement for LGBTQ+ rights. While some people whooped it up in celebration, many were mindful of the growing conservative countermovement, including new laws banning gender-arming care for transgender children. Im trying not to be very heavily political, but when it does target my community, I get very, very annoyed and very hurt,Ž said Ve Cinder, a 22-yearold transgender woman who traveled from Pennsylvania to take part in the countrys largest Pride event. Im just, like, scared for my future and for my trans siblings. Im frightened of how this country has looked at human rights, basic human rights,Ž she said. Its crazy.Ž Parades in New York, Chicago and San Francisco are among events that roughly 400 Pride organizations across the U.S. are holding this year, with many focused speci“cally on the rights of transgender people. One of the grand marshals of New York Citys parade is nonbinary activist AC Dumlao, chief of sta for Athlete Ally, a group that advocates on behalf of LGBTQ+ athletes. Uplifting the trans community has always been at the core of our events and programming,Ž said Dan Dimant, a spokesperson for NYC Pride. San Francisco Pride, another of the largest and best known LGBTQ+ celebrations in the United States, drew tens of thousands of spectators to the city Sunday. The event, kicked o by the group Dykes on Bikes, featured dozens of colorful ”oats, some carrying strong messages against the wave of anti-transgender legislation in statehouses across the country. Organizers told the San Francisco Chronicle that this years theme emphasized activism. The parade included the nations “rst drag laureate, DArcy Drollinger. When we walk through the world more authentic and more fabulous, we inspire everyone,Ž Drollinger said at a breakfast before the parade. Along Market Street, House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi and Rep. Adam Schi of Burbank were spotted riding together. In Chicago, a brief downpour at the beginning of the parade didnt deter parade goers, who took shelter under awnings, trees and umbrellas. A little rain cant stop us!Ž tweeted Brandon Johnson, the citys newly elected mayor. Chicagos 52nd annual celebration on Sunday featured drag performers Marilyn Doll Traid and Selena Peres, as well as the Bud Billiken dancers, who drew loud praise from the crowd as they represented the celebration of Black roots in Chicagos South Side. Its very important to have a Chicago Pride parade,Ž Traid said. And those that wanna go against us, you have to realize that we all stand together.Ž Thousands of people also ”ooded the streets Saturday night in Houston to celebrate pride parades and embrace the LGBTQ+ community. Houston is one big diverse family. Today is about celebrating people who are themselves, their authentic selves and letting everyone know that this is a city full of love, not division, not hate,Ž said Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner. San Antonio also celebrated its Pride parade Saturday night, with hundreds of people lining downtown streets. This years theme is Just Say Gay. We feel so strongly about the legislation thats occurring, not only here in Texas, but in other states throughout the United States that are trying to put us back in the closet,Ž Phillip Barcena, Pride San Antonio president, told KSAT. Also Saturday, “rst lady Jill Biden made an appearance at the Pride parade in Nashville, Tennessee, where she told the crowd loud and clear that you belong, that you are beautiful, that you are loved.Ž Many other cities held their marquee events earlier this month, including Boston, which hosted its “rst parade after a three-year hiatus that began with COVID-19 but extended through 2022 because the organization that used to run it dissolved under criticism that it excluded racial minorities and transgender people. A key message this year has been for LGBTQ+ communities to unite against dozens, if not hundreds, of legislative bills now under consideration in statehouses across the country. Lawmakers in 20 states have moved to ban gender-arming care for children, and at least seven more are considering doing the same, adding increased urgency for the transgender community, its advocates say.Pride Month reaches its grand crescendo on city streets AP PHOTO/EDUARDO MUNOZ ALVAREZRevelers participate in the NYC Pride March on Sunday in New York. adno=3895630-1 2 0 2 3 _ 0 6 _ 2 7 _ o t a _ e n c _ 0 5 . p d f 1 2 7 J u n 2 3 0 1 : 3 9 : 1 6

PAGE 6A TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comKathleen Jade, 50, learned she had breast cancer in late February, just weeks before she and her husband were to depart Seattle for an around-the-world adventure. Instead of sailing their 46-foot boat, Shadowfax, through the Great Lakes toward the St. Lawrence Seaway, she was sitting on a hospital bed awaiting her third dose of an experimental vaccine. Shes getting the vaccine to see if it will shrink her tumor before surgery. Even if that chance is a little bit, I felt like its worth it,Ž said Jade, who is also getting standard treatment. Progress on treatment vaccines has been challenging. The “rst, Provenge, was approved in the U.S. in 2010 to treat prostate cancer that had spread. It requires processing a patients own immune cells in a lab and giving them back through IV. There are also treatment vaccines for early bladder cancer and advanced melanoma. Early cancer vaccine research faltered as cancer outwitted and outlasted patients weak immune systems, said Olja Finn, a vaccine researcher at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. All of these trials that failed allowed us to learn so much,Ž Finn said. As a result, shes now focused on patients with earlier disease since the experimental vaccines didnt help with more advanced patients. Her group is planning a vaccine study in women with a low-risk, noninvasive breast cancer called ductal carcinoma in situ. More vaccines that prevent cancer may be ahead too. Decades-old hepatitis B vaccines prevent liver cancer and HPV vaccines, introduced in 2006, prevent cervical cancer. In Philadelphia, Dr. Susan Domchek, director of the Basser Center at Penn Medicine, is recruiting 28 healthy people with BRCA mutations for a vaccine test. Those mutations increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancer. The idea is to kill very early abnormal cells, before they cause problems. She likens it to periodically weeding a garden or erasing a whiteboard. Others are developing vaccines to prevent cancer in people with precancerous lung nodules and other inherited conditions that raise cancer risk. Vaccines are probably the next big thingŽ in the quest to reduce cancer deaths, said Dr. Steve Lipkin, a medical geneticist at New Yorks Weill Cornell Medicine, who is leading one eort funded by the National Cancer Institute. Were dedicating our lives to that.Ž People with the inherited condition Lynch syndrome have a 60% to 80% lifetime risk of developing cancer. Recruiting them for cancer vaccine trials has been remar kably easy, said Dr. Eduardo Vilar-Sanchez of MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, who is leading two government-funded studies on vaccines for Lynch-related cancers. Patients are jumping on this in a surprising and positive way,Ž he said. Drugmakers Moderna and Merck are jointly developing a personalized mRNA vaccine for patients with melanoma, with a large study to begin this year. The vaccines are customized to each patient, based on the numerous mutations in their cancer tissue. A vaccine personalized in this way can train the immune system to hunt for the cancers mutation “ngerprint and kill those cells. But such vaccines will be expensive. You basically have to make every vaccine from scratch. If this wasnt personalized, the vaccine could probably be made for pennies, just like the COVID vaccine,Ž said Dr. Patrick Ott of DanaFarber Cancer Institute in Boston. The vaccines under development at UW Medicine are designed to work for many patients, not just a single patient. Tests are underway in early and advanced breast cancer, lung cancer and ovarian cancer. Some results may come as soon as next year.CANCERFROM PAGE 1Asaid Loge should only text her with school-related messages, however, she produced a social media message Loge sent on a Saturday morning asking if she had plans. She also asked two co-workers to come into the classroom if she sent a SOS messageŽ so she wouldnt have to be alone with Loge. The investigation found Loge texted the teacher about grade placementŽ for the next school year, but hadnt oered the same to other teachers. Loge was oered supportive measures of employee counseling,Ž the report shows. The Human Resources Department oered the teacher a change in locationŽ or to work at another school. The report states the victim declined and didnt accept four oers for counseling, according to the report. Loge asked for a demotion during the investigation. The investigation was done May 26. The district gave Loge and the teacher 10 more days to provide any additional information before a “nal decision was made on the complaint. During that time, Loge apologized for the inappropriate text messages,Ž the report shows. The teacher showed messages where Loge asked her what she wore when she worked out. He told her he would like to see her in her sports bra.Ž In addition, he often told her he had to bite his tongue,Ž referring to his thoughts about her appearance, and told her she was beautiful, according to the report. Loge disagreed with the frequency the teacher reported he visited her classroom, saying he was her supervisor. The report states Loge referred to himself as being polite and professional.Ž Loge denied sending social media messages, but the teacher produced them during the inquiry. The investigation found Loge completed “ve sexual harassment training courses, including one in July. The report said Loge lost the trust of several employeesŽ and could no longer ful“ll the duties of principal. On June 13, the Charlotte County School Board accepted Loges resignation and placed him on unpaid administrative leave until June 30, his last day of employment. He had three days to appeal the decision and 10 days before the investigative report could be made public under the law. Loge has been with the district for 11 years, starting as a teacher at Punta Gorda Middle School. He was the Meadow Park Elementary School principal for six years. Email: elaine.allen@ yoursun.comPRINCIPALFROM PAGE 1A(AP) „ A white woman accused of “ring through her door and fatally shooting a Black mother in front of her 9-year-old son in central Florida was charged Monday with manslaughter and assault. Susan Lorincz was arrested earlier this month following the fatal shooting of Ajike Owens in Ocala, Florida. She was formally charged with one count of manslaughter with a “rearm and one count of assault. State Attorney William Gladson said his oce contemplated “ling a second-degree murder charge but that prosecutors concluded there was insucient evidence that Lorincz had hatred, spite, ill will or evil intentŽ toward Owens. As deplorable as the defendants actions were in this case, there is insucient evidence to prove this speci“c and required element of second-degree murder,Ž Gladson said in a statement. I am aware of the desire of the family, and some community members, that the defendant be charged with second-degree murder. My obligation as State Attorney is to follow the law in each case that I prosecute.Ž If convicted, Lorincz faces up to 30 years in prison. Amanda Sizemore, Lorinczs attorney from the public defenders oce, said she had no comment at this time. Anthony Thomas, an attorney for Owens family, said the decision against “ling a second-degree murder charge was disappointing.5 teens killed after vehicle lands in retention pondFORT MYERS (AP) „ An out-ofcontrol car landed in a southwest Florida retention pond where it went underwater, killing all “ve teenagers in the vehicle, authorities said Monday. The accident in Fort Myers, Florida, happened either late Sunday or early Monday, killing three woman and two men, all ages 18 or 19, according to ocials with the Fort Myers Police Department. The names of the teens werent immediately released. No further details were made public Monday. The News-Press in Fort Myers reported that four of the teenagers worked together at a Texas Roadhouse restaurant.Judge gives death sentence to man who killed girl, babysitterFORT MYERS (AP) „ A judge in southwest Florida handed down a death sentence Monday for a man convicted of killing an 11-year-old girl and her babysitter more than 30 years ago. Lee Circuit Judge Robert Branning was following last months 10-2 jury recommendation in favor of death for Joseph Zieler, according to court records. The same panel had found Zieler, 61, guilty of two counts of “rst-degree murder. Florida law had previously required a unanimous jury recommendation for a convicted murderer to face the death penalty. But a new law signed in April by Gov. Ron DeSantis requires only an 8-4 vote in favor of execution. Zieler was jailed on an unrelated assault charge in 2016 when his DNA matched to the cold-case murders of Robin Cornell, 11, and Lisa Story, 32, authorities said. The girl and the woman were found in a Cape Coral apartment in May 1990, ocials said. Robins mother had been out for the night and discovered the suocated bodies when she returned the next morning. Investigators said both victims were sexually assaulted.Woman charged in killing of neighbor STATE NEWS BRIEFSLORINCZ OWENS ASSISTEDLIVINGMEMORYCAREINDEPENDENTLIVINGHOMECARE Thedifferencebetween findingaplaceandfinding theperfectplaceWeknowthat“ndingtherightseniorcareforyourmom ordadisabigdecision.ThatswhereAPlaceforMom comesin.Ourseniorlivingadvisoryserviceensuresyoull getafullunderstandingofalltheoptionsinyourarea basedonyourlovedonescareneedsandbudget.

LSU (54-17) staved o elimination three times in bracket play and bounced back from the humiliating 24-4 loss in Game 2 to claim its seventh championship, second to Southern Californias 12. The Tigers wiped out an early 2-0 de“cit with a six-run second inning against Jac Caglianone (7-4). The runs kept coming until they “nished with the most in a title game since USCs 21-14 win over Arizona State in 1998. The 14-run margin was the largest ever in a “nal. Their 24 hits were most in a CWS game. Thatcher Hurd (8-3) allowed Wyatt Langfords two-run homer in the “rst and then allowed no hits or runs while retiring 18 of the next 21 batters. Riley Cooper took over to start the seventh and gave up Ty Evans CWSrecord “fth homer, and Gavin Guidry “nished the combined “ve-hitter. There was speculation after Sundays blowout loss about the Tigers bringing back ace Paul Skenes for a third start in Omaha. He threw a combined 243 pitches over 15 2/3 innings in two spectacular appearances, and he would have been working on three days rest. It turned out Skenes was able to watch from the dugout in the comfort of his sneakers while LSU poured on the runs and Hatcher kept dealing. Skenes headed to the bullpen to do some stretching in the seventh inning, but he went back to the dugout after the eighth and stayed there until he and teammates rushed the mound when Guidry struck out Cade Kurland to end it. Skenes was named the Most Outstanding Player of the CWS. By PATRICK OBLEYSPORTS EDITORThe U.S. Supreme Court barely spilled any ink Monday while denying Ohio State Universitys request to reverse a decision to allow hundreds of former student-athletes to sue the university for decades-old sexual abuse in”icted upon them by team doctor Richard Strauss. Ohio States requests were just two of several dozen listed on an 11-page order list detailing cases SCOTUS would hear and not hear. Ohio States requests were rejected without comment. Mike Schyck had been on alert that a ruling was imminent since last week. The former Lemon Bay wrestling state champion and Ohio State All-American has publicly detailed several instances of abuse by Strauss during his time at the university as an athlete and graduate assistant. He and a group of survivors make up one of many outstanding cases against the school that can now proceed following the courts decision. On Monday morning, Schyck was at the southern tip of Boca Grande on a sales call, out of cellphone reception. Once his car crossed onto mainland, his phone came alive. I went through the weekend thinking about it nonstop,Ž Schyck said. I went into a call this morning and when I came out, I saw 15 text messages. I dont ever get that many text messages all at once.Ž With the ruling, Ohio States latest strategy to avoid survivor lawsuits that could each result in millions of dollars in damages has been exhausted. THE CASE Strauss … who died in 2005 … was hired in 1978 as an assistant professor in the OSU College of Medicine. He began volunteering as a team physician at Larkins Hall, a physical education building. Almost immediately, questions were raised by the athletes he examined. Ultimately hundreds of former student-athletes would come forward saying they were abused or assaulted by Strauss from 1978 to 1998, when he took a voluntary retirement. An independent investigation released in 2019 by the Perkins Coie law “rm con“rmed Strauss had engaged in instances of abuse and further revealed the university had been aware of several incidents. That was detail that had, until then, not been known by Strauss survivors. The school oered a settlement program for survivors, which many accepted. Hundreds of others chose to “le lawsuits seeking more signi“cant damages as well as systemic changes in the schools reporting and investigation of oenses. MLB By KRISTIE ACKERTTAMPA BAY TIMESST. PETERSBURG „ Eighty-one games ago, before Shane McClanahan threw the “rst pitch to Tigers right“elder Matt Vierling, there were a lot of questions about what the season would bring. The Rays had not gone out and signed a big left-handed bat like almost everyone with a column, radio show or Twitter account thought they should have done. Would their stockpile of arms be enough to keep them competitive in the tough American League East? With Kevin Kiermaier gone, who would step into the clubhouse leadership role? The Rays were optimistic about 2023, but no one can say they saw this coming. After beating the Royals on Sunday, Tampa Bay is 54-27 with the best record in baseball and a 4.5-game lead over the Orioles in the division at the halfway mark of the season. After the “rst 81 games, here are four big things the Rays learned about themselves: THEY ARE RESILIENT While the 13-game winning streak to open the season got all the hype in the “rst half, perhaps more impressive was the fact that Rays longest losing streak was just three games „ and it only happened once. The best thing is we obviously started hot. That was fun. It was really fun to start with 13 straight, but I think the best thing is that when we lost the streak, we just bounced right back and kept showing up every day ready to win a ballgame,Ž reliever Jason Adam said. Even in the stretches like more recently ... myself speci“cally I havent been pitching the way I think I should and maybe we havent been winning the games we think we should win, we still show up every day with the same mindset as we did when we were 13-0. Thats been really encouraging to see. Thats what you hear about the great teams doing.ŽHALFWAY: 4 things the Rays learned about themselves TAMPA BAY TIMES/IVY CEBALLORandy Arozarena celebrates after hitting the game-winning home run in the ninth inning against the Twins on June 7 at Tropicana Field.

The best player in Tampa Bay franchise history is 37 now, in his 16th big-league season, “lling a part-time role on a Diamondbacks team that is a surprising contender. This weeks series will be just the second time Longoria has faced the Rays since he was shockingly traded to the Giants in December 2017.

WALKERAP SPORTS WRITERNASHVILLE, Tenn. „ Whenever Music City comes up on the NASCAR schedule, texts ”y to see whos spending an extra day or two in town to enjoy all the options. After another successful race this weekend at Nashville Superspeedway in nearby Lebanon, work continues in the hope of bringing NASCAR back to the area at one of the countrys oldest, most historic tracks: Fairgrounds Speedway, within sight of downtown. It has such a special place in motorsports and in this city,Ž Jerry Caldwell, the president of Bristol Motor Speedway in East Tennesseee, said of the Fairgrounds track. And one of the many things we think that makes Nashville great is the way they embrace their roots.Ž Nashville has long ignored the track that opened in 1904 despite a city charter mandating that racing continue on that spot. NASCAR ran its last Cup Series race at the half-mile oval in 1984, but the lengthy list of drivers wanting this track back on the schedule ranges from Hall of Famers Darrell Waltrip and Dale Earnhardt Jr. to current drivers Chase Elliott, Martin Truex Jr. and Zane Smith. This is the best short track in the country,Ž Waltrip said. It just needs to be upgraded. It hadnt had anything done to it in so long. Thats why its going to cost a few dollars to get it upgraded. But when this track is upgraded, this will be a showplace.Ž Elliott has been a longtime advocate of NASCAR returning to the Fairgrounds. He thinks it would be the best stop on our schedule, hands down,Ž and he won the 2022 Cup race at the Nashville Superspeedway. Its nice to be in the Nashville market kind of, but it doesnt hold a candle to what that could be and what it should be,Ž Elliott said. The challenge is Nashville has spent only whats necessary to keep the doors open for late model racing since dropping o NASCARs Cup Series schedule. One study said $41.9 million must be spent just to keep the track safe for drivers and fans; Nashville had to spend $400,000 to get electricity working last year. The Fair Board that runs the track and Mayor John Cooper have a dierent vision with talks for this deal starting with Bristol six years ago. The mayor signed a renovation deal in March 2021 with Marcus Smith, the president and CEO of Speedway Motorsports, which now owns both the superspeedway and the half-mile Bristol track that is a mainstay on NASCARs schedule. Smiths company renovated North Wilkesboro Speedway, which hosted the NASCAR All-Star race in May after its last Cup race in 1996. Currently, paint ”akes o the Fairgrounds cantilevered roof over the grandstands. Concrete stairs are cracked with bolts so loose bleacher seats rock back and forth. Cinder blocks on the end of the grandstands show the strain of age. Asphalt on the track must be repaved, and the tunnel rebuilt and expanded so haulers can access the in“eld. A sound barrier wall is planned opposite the grandstand with similar material used in the roof to protect residents in the gentrifying neighborhood surrounding the fairgrounds. The outer wall is too short and lacks a SAFER barrier. The catch fence in front of the grandstand also isnt tall enough for todays NASCAR standards, so it must be replaced and extended much further around the track. Preserving the tracks history matters to Smith, and Steve Swift, Speedways senior vice president of operations and development, said thats been made clear. This tracks older than Wilkesboro, so that creates a whole dierent dynamic that we really want to hold on to and make sure that it happens,Ž Smith said. The plan must be approved by the Nashville City Council. The agreement involves Nashville issuing $50 million in bonds with Bristol responsible for renovations, upkeep and signing a 30-year contract to lease and manage the track. Nashville is racing a clock to “nalize the deal. The mayor isnt running for reelection with a new council being seated later this year.Nashville, Bristol working to give NASCAR an option in Music City SOCCER By ALANIS THAMESAP SPORTS WRITERThere are reminders around the city of Miami of Lionel Messis impending arrival: A mural of the seven-time Ballon dOr winner painted with pink and black Inter Miami colors in the artsy Wynwood neighborhood. Another painting of the soccer star at the entrance of a local Argentinian restaurant. No. 10 Argentina jerseys sprinkled throughout the city. Messi, who turned 36 this month, announced on June 7 that he was joining Inter Miami in a move that stunned the soccer world and will bring one of the sports biggest names to the United States and Miami, where enthusiasm for the sport has been growing. Messi, who spent the past two years with Paris Saint-Germain, is still “nalizing paperwork with his new club. He is expected to make his Inter Miami debut on July 21 at home against Cruz Azul in the Leagues Cup. The move is hoped to provide a huge boost to attendance and interest in Major League Soccer ahead of the 2026 World Cup, part of which will be hosted in the U.S., as well as for Inter Miami, a club led by another global soccer icon, David Beckham, that is looking to garner the same popularity as other sports franchises in South Florida. Hes going to be able to leave this wonderful legacy, and its a legacy that couldnt be better timed,Ž said Anson Dorrance, whos in his 47th season as the womens soccer coach at North Carolina. Were going to be hosting the next World Cup on the mens side. ... And a part of constructing a platform to make sure we sell out every stadium is to make sure our top mens professional league, the MLS, is also selling out all of our stadiums.Ž The league is already getting there. Ticket prices for Inter Miami matches have skyrocketed since Messis announcement and teams are already selling additional tickets to future matches against the club. According to data provided by Vivid Seats, a ticket marketplace, the average listed price for Inter Miamis match against Cruz Azul jumped from $126 on June 6 (one day before Messis announcement) to $2,151 on June 20 „ a 1,607% increase. Site trac, the company said, increased by 27,037% from June 6 to June 7. On SeatGeek, another ticket exchange site, the average ticket to watch an Inter Miami match was $34 on June 6. On June 7, it was $178, according to data provided by the company.Anticipation is high ahead of Messis arrival in Miami AP PHOTO/LYNNE SLADKYSta at the Fiorito restaurant hold an Argentinian ag in front of a mural of Lionel Messi on June 7 in Miami. NHL DRAFT By STEPHEN WHYNOAP HOCKEY WRITERMatvei Michkov is the drafts man of mystery. The gifted, playmaking winger is probably the best Russian hockey prospect in nearly a decade „ and maybe longer, going back to Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin in 2005. His highlight reel is full of shifty stickwork, nifty moves and shots that leave goaltenders helpless to stop them. Still, hes no lock to be chosen in the top “ve. The reasons range from the 18-year-old Michkov being under contract in the KHL for three more years to the war in Ukraine, which has led to Russia being banned from international tournaments, countries imposing travel restrictions and scouts getting fewer opportunities to see him in person. Some of the same questions apply to other Russian prospects including winger Danil But, defenseman Mikhail Gulyayev and goaltender Ruslan Khazheyev. Veteran executive Doug Armstrong likened the situation to the Cold War, when it was harder to evaluate talent from the Soviet Union. This years dynamic is dierent,Ž said Armstrong, general manager of the St. Louis Blues, who have the 10th pick when the draft opens Wednesday. Its the live views and also the meetings. Its also getting to talk to people around him. Its been shut down.

www.yoursun.com | The Daily Sun TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 PAGE 9AOhio State immediately sought to have the lawsuits dismissed on the basis that the statute of limitations for Strausss crimes had passed. Lawyers for the athletes pressed on under Title IX guidelines that allowed for the statute clock to begin ticking in 2019, since that was the moment the survivors became aware Ohio State had known about Strausss pattern of behavior. An early ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Michael H. Watson dismissed the lawsuits, rejecting the Title IX claim and reiterating that the statute of limitation had passed. At the same time, Watson agreed with the plaintis that Ohio State had failed to protect its student-athletes from Strauss. A later ruling by a threejudge panel of the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals revived the lawsuits. The university then attempted to get the Circuit Court to issue a rare, en banc review, where all 16 of the appellate courts judges would review the case. Several other high-pro“le state universities signed on to the petition, claiming the Title IX aspect of the case could set a dangerous precedent and expose universities to potentially limitless claims of wrongdoing. That review was denied. Ohio State then turned to the U.S. Supreme Court, leading to Mondays decision. It essentially served a dual purpose as an armation of Title IXs ability to restart a statute clock at the moment of discovery for any past transgression at a university, regardless of when it occurred. In an email to The Daily Sun , Steve Snyder-Hill, a lead plainti in the battle against OSU, expressed relief and exhilaration. I am still in shock. After “ve years of gaslighting us, and “ghting us, OSU has lost three times,Ž he said. They lost to the appeals court, then the en banc, then had the nerve to keep “ghting people they had already harmed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. No colleges have treated sexual assault survivors the way they have treated us,Ž SnyderHill added. Our original judge said there is no doubt of OSUs role in this, but the legal system failed us. But it looks like the legal system has not failed us. Justice has prevailed. Colleges are not going to be able to cover up and lie about sexual assault then turn around and tell you it is too late, since they were so successful in covering it up.Ž Ohio States scandal is latest of several high-pro“le abuse and assault scandals rocking major universities. A scandal at the University of Southern California involving gynecologist George Tyndall resulted in the school paying out $1.1 billion to thousands of women, including $852 million speci“cally to 710 former patients. The University of Michigan agreed to pay $490 million to 1,050 people who said they had been sexually assaulted by school physician Robert Anderson over his four decades at the school. In the most infamous case, Michigan State became embroiled in proceedings against USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. The school reached a $500 million settlement with roughly 150 survivors. Michigan and Michigan State were among the schools that joined Ohio States en banc petition. Ultimately two dozen universities as well as the Association of American Universities joined OSU. In a statement emailed to The Daily Sun , Ben Johnson, OSU vice president of media and public relations, reiterated the following: Ohio State is disappointed by the United States Supreme Courts decision not to review a case involving Title IX claims that has a signi“cant legal impact on colleges and universities across the nation as well as their students. The university was asking the high court to decide whether to: € Uphold its long-standing commitment to statutes of limitations that begin when an injury occurs … not decades later. The Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that statutes of limitations are foundational to the shared rule of law in the U.S. € Preserve Title IXs protection of students who are denied educational opportunities or bene“ts … rather than individuals who visit campuses for other reasons, including the 100,000 visitors to a football stadium on game day. Twenty-three schools from across the country and the 71-member Association of American Universities had also “led an amicus brief this spring urging the Supreme Court to review the case. The university remains committed to supporting survivors. Ohio State has oered multiple monetary settlements to all male students who “led lawsuits and has settled with more than half of the plaintis, 296 individuals, for more than $60 million. Ohio State is also covering the cost of professionally certi“ed counseling and treatment for all survivors and family members. Ohio State is a fundamentally dierent university today than when Strauss was employed and over the past 20 years has committed substantial resources to prevent and address sexual misconduct. WHAT NOW? Schycks initial moment of happiness Monday was tempered by the reality his road to ultimate justice remained a long one. He called a former OSU teammate to celebrate the courts ruling but found his friend to be circumspect. He was just kind of somber and Im like, dude, youve gotta give me something happy, youve gotta put a smile on your face,Ž Schyck said. But it has been “ve-and-a-half years and you try not to get yourself all wrapped up in something good happening, because you know Ohio State is going to continue to keep “ghting you.Ž Snyder-Hill carries the same misgivings. I would assume that OSU would “nally stop being so arrogant that laws and rules dont apply to them and do what every other university does when they “nd themselves in embarrassing situations like this … stop “ghting the survivors,Ž he said. But every time we think we “nally achieved justice, they show us who they really are. The appellate court ruled in our favor, we were elated, then next thing you know, they ask for a full court review (en banc), another punch in the gut. Then when the en banc was denied, elation again, then a punch in the gut with them petitioning to the U.S. Supreme Court. So I would like to think their next move would be rational, but they have not been that from the start,Ž Snyder-Hill continued. What I think their next move should be is for board members to start resigning, and start apologizing to the people they not only allowed to be harmed (by) covering up and lying and shredding documents, and decide not to “ght us. But they trademarked the word THE,Ž so there is some arrogance at play here. This has decimated their reputation.Ž Schyck suspects the school has reached the end of the road in their resistance, since a big reason why the school fought so hard was so that many key “gures would not be deposed, potentially exposing more skeletons in the schools closet. In terms of himself, Schyck is hopeful settlements are on the horizon because telling his story and being one of the faces of the scandal has taken an extreme toll on his own peace of mind and that of his family. I didnt want my life to be this. I didnt jump into this early on because I wanted the notoriety,Ž Schyck said. I kind of lent my name and I didnt want to go on a ride like I have, and it has aected my life.Ž A docuseries on the scandal is being produced by George Clooneys “lm production company, Smokehouse Pictures. Academy Award-winning producer and director Eva Orner is at the helm of the project. Schyck traveled to Ohio late last year for an interview with the documentary team and a “lm crew followed him around at Lemon Bay High School for several days during this past wrestling season, his last as the programs head coach. He will continue as an assistant under incoming head coach, Je Ragan.LAWSUITSFROM PAGE 7A NATIONAL SCOREBOARD BASEBALLMLB AMERICAN LEAGUEEast Division W L Pct GB Tampa Bay 54 27 .667 _ Baltimore 47 29 .618 4½ New York 43 35 .551 9½ Toronto 43 36 .544 10 Boston 40 39 .506 13Central Division W L Pct GB Minnesota 40 40 .500 _ Cleveland 37 40 .481 1½ Detroit 33 43 .434 5 Chicago 34 45 .430 5½ Kansas City 22 56 .282 17West Division W L Pct GB Texas 47 30 .610 _ Houston 42 36 .538 5½ Los Angeles 42 37 .532 6 Seattle 37 39 .487 9½ Oakland 20 60 .250 28½ NATIONAL LEAGUEEast Division W L Pct GB Atlanta 51 27 .654 _ Miami 45 34 .570 6½ Philadelphia 40 37 .519 10½ New York 35 43 .449 16 Washington 30 47 .390 20½Central Division W L Pct GB Cincinnati 41 37 .526 _ Milwaukee 41 37 .526 _ Chicago 37 39 .487 3 Pittsburgh 35 42 .455 5½ St. Louis 32 45 .416 8½West Division W L Pct GB Arizona 47 32 .595 _ San Francisco 44 34 .564 2½ Los Angeles 43 34 .558 3 San Diego 37 41 .474 9½ Colorado 31 49 .388 16½AMERICAN LEAGUE Sundays GamesMinnesota 6, Detroit 3, 10 innings Baltimore 3, Seattle 2 Toronto 12, Oakland 1 Tampa Bay 3, Kansas City 1 N.Y.

PAGE 10A TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comPlaying the Rays is always nostalgic,Ž Longoria said last week. Im always a bit sad that I havent had the opportunity to come back and play them there in St. Pete. It will be fun, nonetheless.Ž Though no players are left from Longorias last Rays team, he played three seasons under manager Kevin Cash and still has solid connections with several coaches, sta and team executives. Hes the best player in the organization. When youre the best, that means a lot,Ž Cash said. To date, I dont think anyone can argue Evan Longorias impact on the Tampa Bay Rays. They got good whenever Evan Longoria stepped foot in St. Pete.Ž Longoria has plenty of memories, going back to 2006, when he was the “rst draft pick of Stuart Sternbergs ownership regime; to his smashing 2008 rookie season that culminated in a stunning World Series berth; to a series of dramatic moments capped by his historic walko home run in Game 162 to send the Rays to the playos in 2011. I think my fondest memories are of those early teams taking the franchise to a level that it hadnt been before,Ž Longoria said. Im forever proud to have been a part of the “rst World Series appearance, and I think what we were able to accomplish set the team on a path to becoming a perennial contender.Ž Longoria had a storied career with the Rays, winning the 2008 American League Rookie of the Year award, making three All-Star teams, earning three Gold Gloves and one Silver Slugger award, and “nishing in the top 20 for the league MVP award six times. Here is a look at 10 of his de“ning moments, in ascending order. 2008, 2012: NUMBERS GAME Longoria twice signed long-term, mega-million-dollar deals with the Rays. The “rst, mostly agreed to before he was called up in April 2008, guaranteed him $17.5 million over six years with the potential for $44.5 million over nine. Before that deal was up, he agreed after the 2012 season to an extension that added six guaranteed years and $100 million but not a no-trade clause. He was dealt to the Giants in December 2017, and no Ray has worn his No. 3 since. 2008: A CASE FOR DEFENSE Longoria took much pride in his defense and had three Gold Gloves to show for it. He also had something of a signature play, charging in to pick up bunts and slow rollers barehanded and “ring to “rst base. He showcased it in a June 17, 2008 game against the “rst-place Cubs „ and former Rays manager Lou Piniella „ getting the “nal out that way with runners on the corners to secure a 3-2 win. 2008, 2012: THRICE IS NICE TWICE Longoria twice hit three home runs in a game, matching the most by any Ray and equaled by four others. He tripled up Sept. 18, 2008 vs. the Twins and Oct. 3, 2012 against the Orioles in Game 162. He hit 261 homers in all for the Rays, one of more than a dozen statistical categories in which he still leads the team, including a 51.2 WAR. 2017: ASSISTED CYCLING Longoria on Aug. 1, 2017 joined B.J. Upton as the only Rays to hit for the cycle. Longoria started with the hardest parts, homering in the “rst inning and tripling in the third before singling in the seventh. In the ninth, he lashed a ball to left“eld with two outs and made a dash for second to get the double he needed. He initially was initially called out, but a replay review led umpires to change the call, completing the cycle. 2011: TRIPLE TROUBLE The Rays needed to win Game 161 to make their Game 162 heroics possible, but things were slipping away as the Yankees took a 3-2 lead in the sixth and had the bases loaded. Starting pitcher Jeremy Hellickson induced a ground ball, which Longoria “elded and alertly started a triple play, just the third in franchise history. The Rays went ahead on Matt Joyces three-run homer in the seventh and lived to play another day. 2008: PLAYOFFS CLINCHER Given the outsized role Longoria would play in their success, it was “tting he caught the “nal out in the Sept. 20, 2008 win over the Minnesota Twins that clinched the Rays “rst playo berth. Longoria cradled a Joe Mauer foul pop beyond third base to start the party that was a long time coming. 2008: PLAYOFFS OPENER Longoria had an eventful debut season, signing a big-bucks contract, getting voted to the All-Star team and compiling numbers good enough to win Rookie of the Year honors in leading the Rays to their “rst playo appearance. He certainly marked that occasion, homering on his “rst two swings in the division series opener against the White Sox at Tropicana Field and doing so a rookie-record six times for the postseason. 2013: GAME 163 After winning in Toronto on the “nal day of the season, Tampa Bay had to ”y to Texas to play a Game 163 for the chance to reach the playos. Longoria hit a two-run homer in the third inning that expanded the Rays lead to 3-0 and proved to be the dierence as they won 5-2 and went on to Cleveland. 2011: GAME 162, HOMER 1 The Rays didnt look much like a team trying to clinch a playo spot in Game 162 of the 2011 season, as they quickly fell behind the Yankees and trailed 7-0. Meanwhile, the Red Sox, who they were battling, led at Baltimore. But the Rays quietly started a rally in the eighth, and Longoria provided a loud blast, a three-run homer with two out that got them within a run. 2011: GAME 162, HOMER 2 After Dan Johnsons last-strike, pinch-hit homer in the ninth inning, Longoria delivered an even bigger blast in the 12th, the modern day shot heard round the world. His one-out, walko home run sent the Rays to the playos as the AL wild card and set o a wild celebration at Tropicana Field. Longoria joined Bobby Thomson of the 1951 Giants as the only players to hit walko homers in the “nal regular-season game to put their teams into the postseason.REUNIONFROM PAGE 7AThe Rays also have only lost back-toback games at Tropicana Field, where they are 34-10, once. THEY ARE DEEP The Rays have taken some signi“cant hits to their roster already this season. Tyler Glasnow began the season on the injured list and didnt make his debut until May 27. Jerey Springs looked unstoppable in spring training, then in his third start tore his ulnar collateral ligament and is out for the season after Tommy John surgery. Drew Rasmussen has been out since he felt a ”exor strain in his April 19 start. Still, the Rays have the second-best ERA (3.59) in the majors behind the Astros. I think its just everybodys overall consistency to go out there and “nd a way to get the job done regardless of, what it looks like,Ž said ace Shane McClanahan on what he has been most impressed with. The next-manup mentality as Ive talked about all season.Ž Instead of buying a lefty slugger, they have had Luke Raley (12 home runs) and Josh Lowe (11 homers) step up. I think in almost every case, every one of our players has shown some kind of real growth and improvement,Ž Rays general manager Peter Bendix said. Some of that has translated to better numbers than others, but I think just about everybody is performing better than they had last year. Many of them are performing the best that theyve had in their career to date. And considering that a lot of these guys struggled to some extent last year, its especially impressive they showed so much growth after only one oseason.Ž THEY CAN HIT Tampa Bay ended 2022 unable to score, literally. They lost 1-0 in the Wild Card Series at Cleveland, a “tting “nish to a season in which they were 21st in the majors in scoring (666 runs), 24th in OPS (.686), and 25th in home runs (139). This season the Rays are second in the majors in scoring (451 runs) and OPS (.802). They are third in the big leagues in home runs (123). They have six players with more than 10 home runs, including “ve with at least a dozen. Randy Arozarena and Jose Siri lead them with 14 each. We ended so bad last year and I was talking about how much we got humbled and you go and review things that as a coach you need to anticipate, things that youre going to have to push and ideas,Ž Rays hitting coach Chad Mottola said. But they came in probably hungrier than I did, which is another compliment to them.Ž THEY HAVE NEW VOICES When Kiermaier moved on to the Blue Jays, there was some concern about leadership in the clubhouse „ even some curiosity among the players themselves. It was answered pretty quickly. Seeing, like, all the young guys, step up and be leaders for sure. I mean, (McClanahan), for example,Ž Adam said. And (catcher Christian Bethancourt), hes more of a veteran but CB is a really good leader. Because you lose a guy like Kiermaier and you think who is gonna be our biggest presence and its like everyone stepped up. ... Thats been really cool.ŽLEARNEDFROM PAGE 7A MLB By NOAH TRISTERAP BASEBALL WRITERThe way the Texas Rangers have hit the ball this season, it may take more than an injury to Jacob deGrom to knock them out of “rst place. DeGrom is done for the season after Tommy John surgery, but the Rangers still lead the AL West by 5 1/2 games over Houston and by six over the Los Angeles Angels. Texas leads the major leagues with 458 runs scored „ nearly six per game „ and the Rangers also have the games top run dierential. Corey Seager has been excellent when healthy. Hes hitting .349 with 10 homers and 46 RBIs in 46 games. Marcus Semien is batting .278 with 10 homers of his own, and the Rangers have received impressive contributions from two 24-year-olds: Ezequiel Duran is hitting .312 and Leody Taveras is at .298. Texas got just six starts from the oft-injured deGrom, but the rotation isnt exactly in shambles without him. Nathan Eovaldi, Jon Gray and Dane Dunning all have ERAs under 3.00. The Rangers lost two of three at Yankee Stadium over the weekend, but it was a tightly contested series in which every game could have gone either way. Texas won 4-2 in 10 innings, then lost 1-0 and 5-3, with New York scoring three in the bottom of the eighth to take the “nale. The AL West has largely belonged to Houston for the past few years, but the Astros are scuing at the moment, having dropped seven of 10. The Angels turned some heads with their epic blowout of Colorado on Saturday night, but they actually lost two of three to the Rockies. Seattle had a similar experience in Baltimore, winning the opener of that series 13-1 before dropping the next two games to fall two under .500. QUITE A BOOST The Miami Marlins are 11 games over .500, and while much of the attention has been on Luis Arraez and his .399 batting average, rookie Eury Pérez has been just what the team needed on the mound. Pérez struck out nine in six innings in a 2-0 win over Pittsburgh on Sunday. The 6-foot-8 right-hander improved to 5-1 with a 1.34 ERA, and he now has a 21-inning scoreless streak. Arizona out“elder Corbin Carroll has a head start on Pérez in the Rookie of the Year race, but expect Pérez to play a signi“cant role in the Marlins bid for a playo berth. TRIVIA TIME Not counting the shortened 2020 season, who is the last pitcher to win NL Rookie of the Year honors? LINE OF THE WEEK With all due respect to Elly De La Cruzs cycle, this honor has to come from the Angels staggering 25-1 win over Colorado. Mickey Moniak went 5 for 5 with “ve runs and four RBIs for Los Angeles. He hit a homer and three doubles. The No. 1 pick in the 2016 draft, Moniak was traded from Philadelphia to Los Angeles last year for Noah Syndergaard. Hes having a “ne season for the Angels since being called up in May, hitting .337 with seven homers and 20 RBIs in 27 games. COMEBACK OF THE WEEK Down 7-3 in the seventh inning, the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied for an 8-7 victory over the Houston Astros on Saturday. David Peralta cut the de“cit in half with a two-run homer, then Los Angeles drew three straight walks to start the bottom of the eighth before a sacri“ce ”y and a double tied the game. The Dodgers “nally went ahead when a run-scoring balk was called on Ryne Stanek. Houstons win probability peaked at 94.7% at the start of the seventh, according to Baseball Savant. The Astros blew another lead the following night, allowing three Los Angeles runs in the eighth to tie the game, but this time Houston prevailed 6-5 in 11 innings.

TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | YOURSUN.COM Local News By CHRIS PORTERNORTH PORTENGLEWOOD EDITORSARASOTA „ Sarasota County Schools took a big step toward nailing down a contract Monday with Terrance Connor, its choice for its next superintendent. The contract, as agreed upon Tuesday, includes an annual salary and bene“ts package of $290,000. Added to that is a $30,000 bonus incentive provision to be paid if Connor reaches certain goals for the district. Sarasota County School Board members will discuss those goals at an upcoming meeting. There is still work to be done. Connor must approve the contract, and the board needs to vote on a “nal version at a meeting following public comment, possibly this week. The contract includes a $255,000 base salary, plus provisions that include tax-deferred compensation, life insurance, funds for an ocial cellphone and laptop, reimbursement for expenses and transportation, and moving expenses up to $15,000. The contract also includes a separation provision that allows for 20 weeks severance compensation if the board votes to end the contract without cause. It would be paid on the event that the superintendent sign an agreement holding the board free of liability. School Board chair Bridget Ziegler and the boards attorney Patrick Duggan negotiated the terms of the contract last week and into the weekend. Board members Tuesday agreed to Connors request of a $255,000 salary „ and a total of $30,000 in potential incentives was approved. Connor is expected to agree to the contract. The district has a board meeting set for July 17 for a swearing-in ceremony. The School Board began the search process in January, shortly after voting to part ways with Brennan Asplen, who was hired in August 2020. The board decided to end Asplens contract immediately after a new conservative majority was seated in November. Board members selected Connor following a four-month process that included discussions with the community and school sta, input from a selection committee and individual meetings with candidate “nalists. On June 15, the board voted 3-2 for Connor with vice chair Karen Rose, and members Tom Edwards and Robyn Marinelli in favor and School Board Chair Bridget Ziegler and board member Timothy Enos dissenting. Longtime school district administrator Allison Foster has been the interim superintendent since January. She was among the four “nalists the board considered. Connor is leaving his job as a deputy superintendent for Hillsborough County Schools. Charlotte County recently selected a new superintendent as well, agreeing to a contract with Mark Vianello for $180,000 in salary.District approves terms of contractAgreement with Terrance Connor needs his OK, a final vote after public inputCONNOR STAFF REPORTTwo more cases of malaria in Sarasota County have been treated, causing the Florida Department of Health to issue a statewide mosquito-born illness advisory Monday. With the latest cases, four people in Sarasota County have been successfully treated for malaria since May, according to the Florida Department of Health. The sometimes fatal disease is transmitted by mosquitoes. The state had previously issued an advisory for only Sarasota and Manatee counties. But with the two latest cases, the advisory is now statewide. Aerial and ground mosquito spraying is being conducted to mitigate the risk of further transmission. But people should consider doing their part, an advisory from the state noted. Residents in these areas should take precautions, such as wearing long sleeve shirts and pants, applying bug spray, and avoiding areas with high mosquito populations, especially during sunrise and sunset when mosquitos are most active,Ž it stated. Malaria is only transmitted from Anopheles mosquitoesŽ to humans and cant be transmitted from human-to-human. The Florida cases have been identi“ed as the P. vivax species of malaria, which is not as fatal as other species, a previous alert said. Eective treatment is readily available through hospitals and other health care providers,Ž it stated. Individuals in this area with symptoms of fever, chills, sweats, nausea/vomiting, and headache should seek immediate medical attention.Ž The Florida Department of Health is also urging people to remain diligentŽ with drain and cover.Ž Drain standing water to stop mosquitoes from multiplying,Ž it stated, which includes: € Drain water from garbage cans, house gutters, buckets, pool covers, coolers, toys, ”owerpots, or any other containers where sprinkler or rainwater has collected. € Discard old tires, drums, bottles, cans, pots and pans, broken appliances and other items that arent being used. € Empty and clean birdbaths and pets water bowls at least once or twice a weekStatewide malaria alert; two more cases hereAll four cases have been in Sarasota County TNS PHOTOFour cases of malaria have been reported in Sarasota County since May.

Kyrsha Taylor, 27, received a sentence of just under one year in jail, according to court documents, as well as three years of post-release probation. The sentence from June 14 was the result of a plea deal between Taylor and prosecutors, along with her receiving 263 days worth of time-served credit. Taylor was initially charged in early 2020, in connection to a shooting that ended in the death reported at a nightclub in Port Charlotte. Witnesses alleged Taylor was visiting the club with her boyfriend Kevens Laguerre, who later got into a “ght with another man. Laguerre then retrieved a handgun from his car and “red four times at the other man, who later died from his injuries. According to witnesses, Taylor then got into the cars driver seat and drove away from Over the Bridge with Laguerre inside the vehicle. The nightclub closed its doors for good shortly after the January 2020 shooting. Authorities later reported that the victim had four gunshot wounds in total „ one near his right eyebrow, two additional wounds on his forehead, and an entry wound on his right chest and shoulder area. Taylor and Laguerre were arrested several days later. Their arrest occurred just prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, which led to courts across the country „ including Florida „ to slow down in-person meetings. Laguerre, 30, had previously oered his own plea of no contest in May to one count of manslaughter. Previously, he had been facing a charge of second-degree homicide. As a result of that plea, Laguerre was sentenced to 13 years in prison and two years of post-release probation.

Semon and Frank DiFiore By FRANK DIFIORESTAFF WRITERPUNTA GORDA „ Charlotte County deputies arrested two drivers last week „ one adult, one juvenile „ for allegedly racing down Burnt Store Road at 100 miles per hour. Wilmer Giron Nolasco, 22, of Fort Myers was the adult arrested. The name and age of the juvenile suspect was redacted on the arrest report. Deputies with the Charlotte County Sheris Oce observed two vehicles speeding down Burnt Store Road around 3:16 p.m. on June 20. It included a black pickup truck, allegedly driven by Nolasco, and a white van allegedly being driven by the juvenile. According to the arrest report, deputies reported seeing Nolascos black truck tailgating another vehicle in front him and crossed into the road median at one point. The posted speed limit for the area was listed at 55 miles per hour. When a deputy clocked the speed of moving the truck and the van, the vehicles registered at 100 miles per hour, with a 45 mph zone nearby. The deputy theorized in the report that both vehicles were engaged in a race, either to get somewhere faster or continually keep the other car from passing. The patrol car gave chase with lights activated and conducted a trac stop near the intersection of Burnt Store Road and Royal Poinciana. According to the arrest report, both drivers claimed to speak little EnglishŽ and were given information on their charges in Spanish from backup deputies as they arrived on-scene. Both suspects were also found to have no drivers license, and were charged with both racing a motor vehicle on a highway and operating without a valid license. They were also issued citations for speeding. While there is no records on arrest and court charges for the juvenile suspect, Nolasco was transported to Charlotte County Jail and released the same day on $3,500 total bond. Both Nolasco and the juvenile are scheduled to appear in Charlotte County Court on July 5.

PAGE 4B TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comLegislators must get over fear of TrumpE:The Republican-led House of Representatives on June 21, 2023 disgraced itself by censuring a fellow congressman for no other reason than he stood up to Donald Trump and held him accountable. Trump threatened to primary these cowardly unethical and un-American legislators, so all 213 Republican members voted yesŽ to this censorship, brought to the ”oor by Rep. Luna of Florida. Everything and everyone Trump touches, he destroys. Just ask the insurrectionists that are systematically being sentenced by judges and a jury of their peers. How is this country and its democratic republic to survive if the grip of fear by a twice impeached and twice indicted ex-president has such a hold on a major political party? The shameful displays of these Republican cowards is self evident that their loyalty is not to their constituents, America, or their oath of oce, but to Trump. Voters need to wokeŽ up and vote them out in 2024. K K EnglewoodFeelings about ags are ripe for discussionE:It appears the rapidly escalating contretemps between fervid advocates of the nation LGBTQ+/Pride movement, and their equally intense opponents, have spread even to the realm of their colors and ”ags. According, that is, to two recent syndicated columnists in The Daily Sun . National Review columnist Rich Lowry says the LGBTQ+ ”ag has become more and more unsightly, an increasingly elaborate jumble of clashing stripes, an inscrutable, aesthetic disaster, with all the visual appeal of a TV test pattern. Whereas,Ž the power of the StarSpangled Banner is its extraordinary history. Its call is to unify all Americans. The pride ”ag is the opposite.Ž Robin Alcarian, columnist for the Los Angeles Times, writes, Rainbow colored dresses, T-shirts, and baby rompers. Greeting cards that say Im happy that youre queer. Who could possibly be oended by items that celebrate the rights of gay and trans people to simply live in peace?Ž She adds that a moral panicŽ about sexual and gender identity is due to the far rightŽ spreading fears about the corruption of children, the Christian rightŽ needing a new bogeyman after Roe v. Wade was overturned, and the bigots being on the march.Ž Such con”icts, as does this one, often engender strong feelings, forceful emotions. They represent a perceived threat to our values and well being, if not our survival. Yet, facing and solving con”ict has been a major part of the history, development and growth of our nation for some 250 years. So, perhaps, objectively, its time, once again, to ”ag our feelings, so to speak, and to seek a reasonable resolution, to the vast bene“t of all of us. J. W (B) J Punta GordaApproving abortions is an act against GodE:The President thinks that abortion bans are extreme.Ž What is the outcome of an abortion for the baby? For the miniature human who has done nothing criminal, it is a death more painful than for a serial murderer. The current President and his abortion industry allies are the extremists. Abortion extremism is awful. Yet the worst of the Presidents alliance with advocates of nearly unlimited abortion through birth is rebellion against God and the denial of the sacred nature of human life. This is not new; former President Obama voted against banning partial birth abortion in the Illinois Legislature. Former Governor Northem of Virginia advocated keeping a baby comfortableŽ while the babys life or death was being decided. Does not this deny the sacredness of human life? It treats a precious human life created by God as potential garbage. This attitude at birth opens the door to the callous abuse of children a few years older. Our nations founders knew that the favor of God was essential for victory in the American Revolution. We equally need the favor of God to survive as a nation. Yet we insult Him as we claim the right to kill children He is creating. Our nation needs to heed the words repeated by the Lord Jesus in Luke 13:3,5: Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.Ž And as Ezekiel recorded in Ezekiel 33:11 preached to his captive Israel, ƒ turn from your evil ways, for why will you die?Ž T L North PortLet inmates clean up our nasty roadwaysE:I drive over the bridges between Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte at least three times a week and Im shocked at the trash laying next to the road! Why cant the prisoners be used to clean up the roads? Or are they too busy in the exercise room or watching TV? Our tax dollars are clothing them and giving them three square meals a day.

These so-called preemption bills curtail how the government closest to the people „ county commissions, city and village councils „ and local voters can shape their communities. As usual, thats done to bene“t big political donors, political players, developers and businesses at odds with local communities. And it happens every year, no matter whos in the governors mansion. The 2023 session was no exception, but it was notable because many of those preemption bills impact Miami-Dade County directly. Fortunately, one of the most egregious attacks on our home rule died. Senate Bill 1346 would have given developers the green light to tear down historic oceanfront buildings like the Art Deco gems lining Miami Beach. But other bills that kneecap the will of local voters and elected ocials were approved and are headed to Gov. Ron DeSantis desk. SB 718 bans local voter referendums related to land development. It appears to be yet another assault on Miami Beach, where voters have often balked at oversized development. Last year, they rejected a request by Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross to exceed building-size regulations to erect a hotel and condo project at the site of the demolished Deauville Beach Resort. The legislation would make such referendums illegal. Rep. Vicki Lopez, a Republican whose district includes Key Biscayne, which also is aected by the legislation, said local governments should not govern by referendum,Ž the Herald reported. Whether thats the prudent way to govern or not is beside the point. The reason cities and counties exist is to ensure each community makes decisions that re”ect the will of its constituents. Its Miami Beachs responsibility, not the Legislatures, to make development decisions. Local council or commission members „ not lawmakers from all across the state „ are best equipped to make quality-of-life decisions in their jurisdictions. That concept of local autonomy, known as home rule, has been enshrined in the Florida Constitution. However, the state Legislature over the years has preempted communities from regulating things big and small: single-use plastic bags, sunscreen that damages coral reefs, fossil fuels, cruise ships in Key West „ the list goes on. The main bene“ciaries of these preemptions are usually powerful industries „ i.e. fossil fuel, cruise companies „ that can aord lobbyists and political contributions. Take HB 1417, widely supported by the Florida Apartment Association and Florida Realtors. It wipes out ordinances that counties like Miami-Dade passed to give tenants more rights at a time when they are experiencing rent increases of hundreds of dollars. The tenants bill of rightsŽ required, for example, that landlords give notice of rent increases. Miami-Dade last year required a 60-day notice for increases above 5% and made it easier to bill landlords for repairs. Supporters of these preemption measures say they want to bring consistencyŽ to regulations across the state. But consistencyŽ more times than not comes at the expense of those who dont have the clout to in”uence the lawmaking process. The purpose of a state Legislature isnt to become a central oce for local land and development decisions. Unfortunately, the Republicans running the Florida House and Senate have gotten a taste of power, and they will usurp more of it from Floridas communities.

www.yoursun.com | The Daily Sun TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 PAGE 5BOPINIONSIn the summer of 2016, I asked Hialeah seniors to join me in the performance of an art piece called Hot for HialeahŽ at the JFK Library parking lot. Under the scorching sun, we stood together frying eggs on a solar panel as a way of exposing the immediate threats of global climate change. Our goal was to confront denial and indierence, challenging the perception that rising seas are a distant concern. The truth is, our addiction to fossil fuels not only melts glaciers and wreaks havoc on ecosystems, it also harms peoples health. It is crucial to deepen our understanding of how human activities contribute to the warming planet. Miami, my beloved hometown, is particularly vulnerable to rising temperatures. Miami-Dade County is projected to have the highest increase in days per year with a heat index of 100 or more compared to any other county in the United States. By mid-century, an additional 41 days, from 50 to 91 days, are predicted. The consequences of extreme heat are far-reaching, aecting various aspects of our community. While many of us enjoy the privilege of air-conditioned homes, cars and workplaces, not everyone has access to such relief. For those who cannot aord to stay cool, extreme heat becomes an insurmountable challenge that profoundly impacts their daily lives. Vulnerable populations, including the elderly, homeless individuals and those with pre-existing health conditions, face severe risks from heat-related illnesses. Symptoms such as dizziness and nausea can quickly escalate into life-threatening conditions, including heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Timely access to cooler environments and medical assistance is crucial to mitigate these health impacts. Rising temperatures also have signi“cant implications for productivity and workplace safety. They impair cognitive function, increase fatigue and contribute to an elevated risk of workplace injuries. Outdoor workers, such as construction workers, agricultural laborers and street vendors are particularly vulnerable. To safeguard workers and businesses, it is imperative to prioritize measures such as rest breaks and access to shade and water, as well as comprehensive heat-illness prevention training. These actions not only safeguard workers, but also enhance business pro“tability. To tackle the challenges of extreme heat, we must cool our neighborhoods through initiatives like planting trees. They provide shade and mitigate the urban heatislandŽ eect. Weatherization programs and energy-ecient technologies can make cooling more aordable for low-income households. Education and community outreach empower individuals to recognize and respond to heat-related risks. As an artist, I believe in the power of art to communicate complex issues, evoke emotions, and inspire meaningful connections. Through a collaboration between the Xavier Cortada Foundation, Miami-Dade Countys chief heat ocer and the Coral Gables Museum, we are implementing artistic interventions this summer that encourage dialogue and action around extreme heat. To that end, I have designed artistic cooling towels that not only protect from the intense sun depicted on them but also spark conversations about our vulnerability to extreme heat. These towels are part of the Keep Cool Miami-DadeŽ extreme heat awareness campaign launched in partnership with my foundation and MISSION, a leading producer of cooling gear. The initiative is a call to action, urging individuals to recognize the consequences of extreme heat and equipping them with the tools and knowledge to combat its worst eects. Our ultimate goal is to make Miami-Dade County safer and more resilient in the face of this critical public health threat. Join us in this eort by sharing a picture of yourself on social media, either alone or with friends, wearing sunglasses as a symbol of staying cool in the heat. Make sure your posts caption lets people know how important it is to keep cool in our warming world and include the hashtag #KeepCoolMiamiDade. Visit our website, www.cortada. com/keep-cool, to learn more about the campaign, see the schedule of upcoming engagement events and download resources to protect your family and community. By leveraging the power of art, education and collective action, we can raise awareness, empower individuals and provide practical solutions to cope with the challenges of the climate crisis. Together, lets keep cool, protect our community and preserve the well-being of future generations. Xavier Cortada is an artist and University of Miami professor of practice. He is the inaugural artist-in-residence for Miami-Dade County. This opinion piece was originally published by the Miami Herald, which is a media partner of The Invading Sea website (www. theinvadingsea.com).Dont risk your health, well-being in the heat XAVIER CORTADAUniversity of Miami The Republicans fretting over Hunter Bidens supposed sweetheart dealŽ on federal tax and weapons charges cant honestly blame President Joe Biden or Attorney General Merrick Garland. The culprit in the Biden case „ if there is one, which remains doubtful „ happens to be a Republican prosecutor, appointed by a Republican president and con“rmed by a Republican Senate. Those facts are not in dispute „ and yet for some reason, the politicians who have complained so loudly about the Hunter Biden plea agreement, not ably House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, always neglect to mention those highly relevant details. By the time President Biden took oce in January 2021, his son had been the subject of a federal investigation for more than two years, led by the United States Attorney in Delaware „ a lifelong Republican named David Weiss. An experienced prosecutor, Weiss had served in an acting role overseeing that oce until President Donald Trump ocially appointed him as the U.S. Attorney in 2018. The Senate con“rmed Weiss by voice vote with no dissent. Although incoming presidents customarily replace the U.S. attorney in every federal jurisdiction, President Biden announced early on that he would retain Weiss to avoid the appearance of interfering in the probe of his son, which Hunter Biden had made public after the 2020 election. Garland pledged that Weiss would have full authority to make decisions about any charges brought against Hunter Biden. Garlands predecessor William Barr had decided against appointing a special counsel in the case, but Weiss had essentially the same powers. Two weeks before he announced the plea deal, Weiss reassured congressional Republicans that the Biden administration had ful“lled its promise to empower him and respect his independence. In a June 7 letter to Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, the House Judiciary Committee chair, he wrote: I have been granted ultimate authority over this matter, including responsibility for deciding where, when, and whether to “le charges and for making decisions necessary to preserve the integrity of the prosecution, consistent with federal law, the Principles of Federal Prosecution, and Departmental regulations... In February 2021, I was asked to remain as United States Attorney for the District of Delaware to continue my oversight of the (Hunter Biden) matter. Since that time, I have ful“lled my responsibilities, consistent with Department practices and procedures, and will continue to do so. Throughout my tenure as U.S. Attorney my decisions have been made „ and with respect to the matter must be made „ without reference to political considerations.Ž When Weiss disclosed that Hunter Biden had pled guilty to a misdemeanor tax charge and a gun felony, with “nes and probation but no prison sentence, Republicans reacted indignantly. Several noted that actor Wesley Snipes had served three years in prison for tax evasion, but his case was entirely dierent: Hunter Biden paid his overdue taxes long before the investigation was “nished, while Snipes refused; and Hunter Biden owed taxes on $1.2 million, while Snipes had tried to hide at least $25 million. The Biden case was also consider ably less egregious than the long-running tax fraud perpetrated by Trump crony and convicted felon Roger Stone, who was “nally forced to pay $2.1 million in a 2022 plea agreement „ and received no prison time. As for Bidens gun oense, veteran prosecutors agreed that any jail time would have been unusual, since he had only possessed that weapon brie”y and had not used it to commit any crime. He violated a law that most of his Republican critics would prob ably deem unconstitutional. The latest Republican gambit in the Hunter Biden “asco is to spotlight a disgruntled whistleblower.Ž Former federal investigator Gary Shapley claims that the Justice Department and the IRS slow-walkedŽ and softened the probe from the beginning. Democrats have questioned Shapleys story and his motives because hes a Republican who has received support from a right-wing activist organization. But even if we assume that Shapley is telling the whole truth, his complaints date back to the period when the Biden investigation was under the supervision of the Trump Justice Department. The misconduct he has alleged mainly implicates his fellow Republicans, in particular Barr and Weiss. Indeed, all the available evidence indicates that President Biden and Attorney General Garland have behaved with untarnished integrity in this matter. The lingering question, as Republicans continue to vent their unsupported accusations of corruption, is what they think Biden and Garland should have done dierently. That they have no honest answer is hardly a surprise. To “nd out more about Joe Conason and read features by other Creators Syndicate writers and cartoonists, visit the Creators Syndicate website at www.creators.com.The facts behind Hunters sweetheart deal JOE CONASONCreators Syndicate The statistics are damning. There is no version of the numbers that re”ects well on our country. Theres no way to spin them in any direction that doesnt point to collective shame at the tragedy of loss of life. In the “rst 138 days of 2023, according to the Gun Violence Archive, over 16,000 Americans have died as a result of gun violence, nearly 700 of them under the age of 18 „ almost “ve children a day. There have been 227 mass shooting events „ again, in the “rst 138 days. What is there to be said anymore? The gun lobby supports gun rights over the lives of human beings „ there is little evidence to the contrary. People remain steadfast in their support for these weapons, even as more and more Americans, and American children, die. One of the top three causes of death for children under the age of 9, according to the CDC? Homicide, with a high likelihood that a gun was involved. As the Pew R esearch Center pointed out, gun deaths have only been rising, with an increase of 50% between 2019 and 2021. I grew up in South Texas, surrounded by gun culture. My family of cattlemen in Colombia has guns. Im not against guns. But I believe that if you need a license to legally and safely own and operate a vehicle, you probably need a license to legally and safely own and operate a gun. And we should probably ban a handful of guns that facilitate mass murder. People will argue that civilians deserve access to the same weapons the police have, so that they may remain a militia, as the Second Amendment seems to indicate. But they never read the opening clause, which includes a pesky well regulatedŽ „ which certainly doesnt apply to hobbyists and people who just like things that go boom. But honestly, I dont think the police should have weapons that facilitate mass murder either. There must be a way that we can both keep guns and prevent gun violence and gun deaths. In the 1980s, only about 10% of people used seat belts, according to AAA. Today, seat belts save thousands of lives. At some point, we collectively realized that a human life was worth more than a slight inconvenience. Registering as a gun owner and submitting to background checks are an inconvenience, and giving up some particularly powerful “rearms potentially more so. And yes, for some people, it will be more onerous than for others. But at the end of the day, isnt it worth it to save the lives of thousands of people? Or even the life of one person? One child? Because the longer this goes on, the longer the gun lobby looks like they care more about guns than they do about people „ than they do about children. After all, its hard to “nd any legislation or policy from the NRA or its adherents intending to protect our most vulnerable. Instead, its a psychotically single-minded defense of every inch of their rights,Ž no matter the cost. History books will ask, with curiosity and judgment, how we let this happen „ how hundreds of children died and we did nothing but oer canned expressions of lament, but no actions. I used to think there was a limit, that there was a number of dead children that the gun lobby would “nally see as unacceptable. But instead, many retreated to the conspiracies of crisis actorsŽ and false ”agsŽ „ anything to deny the reality of what our cultural fetish with guns has wrought. Sixteen thousand people have died this year who should not have. And if that doesnt stir a response, then what about the 100 children under the age of 9? Something must happen, somewhere deep in the brain or the heart or the soul „ some reaction that tells us that this is not right, and that something must be done. We get drivers licenses and insurance to protect ourselves. We wear seatbelts and use car seats to protect ourselves and our children.

Daily Break TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | YOURSUN.COM By TODD MARTENSLOS ANGELES TIMESIt might sound odd in a game full of medieval mysticism, raging battles and swordplay, but Final Fantasy XVIŽ actually wants to help its players survive the chaos. Every few hours or so, a character will express befuddlement. Does any of this make sense to you?Ž a travel companion will ask, just a few missions after an enemy shrieked in horror that he didnt know what the heck was going on. He could be forgiven. Moments before his confusion, a woman with a godlike ability to harness tornado-force winds „ this after sprouting wings and shape-shifting into a glistening, multi-story creature „ had been rendered powerless by a seemingly more simple magic user, the games player-controlled protagonist. But the 16th core Final FantasyŽ game „ no previous knowledge of the brand required „ isnt out to confuse as it lets 35-plus hours of story-driven gameplay unfold with surprising patience. Yes, theres a lot that Final Fantasy XVIŽ is attempting to juggle, be it the multiple warring factions of a fantasy realm; nods to climate destruction and deceitful parentage, which has saddled our main character, Clive Rosenfeld, with a forever existential crisis. Then theres Magic, which anyone who has rolled a 20-sided die or spent time in Middle-earth will know is often a curse as much as it is a blessing. And in the Game of ThronesŽlike world of Final Fantasy XVIŽ its mainly just a curse. Thats all just scratching the narrative surface in this title from producer Naoki Yoshida (Final Fantasy XIV OnlineŽ) and director Hiroshi Takai (Final Fantasy VŽ) . The comparison to George R.R. Martins series is no slight as Final Fantasy XVIŽ appears to be unapologetic in its debt to the HBO franchise spawned by Martins books, complete with a map that looks lifted from the opening credits of the series and a beginning thats heavy on action and ”irting. This is a big-budget soap opera of a video game fantasy where battles, which erupt often, are dazzling displays of hyperactive sword blades that attack with images of “re and ice. The action is dizzying, as blue and red tendrils circle around Clive in colorful, abstract displays, and each battle win is punctuated with an operatic choir. INTERACTIVE TV And yet Final Fantasy XVIŽ is an action game that plays as interactive television, especially if one makes use of the games hand-holding options. Dont be put o by the XVIŽ in the title, as this is a game that aims to be approachable viewing with a participatory bent. Heavy action scenes are followed often by lengthy calms, in which the controller can be set aside for extended periods of cinematic exposition. Tonally, its all a bit odd „ the cartoon violence clashes with lustful characters, and large, symphonic swells instantly give way to more ethereal, head-in-the clouds sounds „ a game that wants a mature, grown-up edge without losing any youthful, all-ages appeal. It mostly succeeds, even if the beautiful PlayStation 5 title feels like a throwback of sorts. Granted, it all can be a bit silly, especially as one learns the lore of the Eikon, higher powers that appear attached to certain bloodlines, allowing characters to transform into majestic, glowing beasts that can control the elements. The fantasy realm here largely views those with such abilities as weapons. Magic isnt feared so much as looked down upon; those born with power are cast o into lives of servitude in which they are branded with a tattoo across the cheek. Those who harness magic via crystals are perceived by the society in the game as less feral, crystal magic being seen as more easily controlled and tamed. But theres a catch: such crystals may be destroying the world, believed by some to be the root cause of a blight that is quickly deadening the lands and throwing the abundance of kingdoms into war. Thats just a backdrop; Final Fantasy XVIŽ works because it so narrowly focuses its tale on Clive, born to a doting father and a scornful mother who views him with disgust and prefers the younger, Eikonblessed Joshua, whom Clive is sworn to protect. But the family drama leads to a power grab that leads to tragedy, setting up, at least in its initial hours, what appears to be a revenge tale. APPROACHABLE AND LINEAR I didnt come to Final Fantasy XVIŽ as an expert in the franchise, and while each mainline game in the series is a reset, with new characters and some dierent approaches to gameplay, I was surprised at just how approachable and linear it is. In a year in which weve seen the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom,Ž a game that emphasizes creativity of the player, Final Fantasy XVIŽ felt almost old-fashioned, a tightly focused narrative that wants to bridge the gaps among television, “lm and interactivity. We watch almost as much as we play, and the latter can be heavily tailored. There are bracelets, for instance, that one can acquire that can greatly simplify action, allowing players to better time their parries, or turning complex moves into simple one-button presses. Using many of them ups the arcade feel of the game, but also ensures that anyone can conquer even the toughest of battles. Though there are role-playing game attributes like hit points and upgrade-able abilities, they arent a focus. Action and story take priority over puzzles, essentially nonexistent, and strategy. And simply pressing the pause button will bring up what the game calls Active Time Lore,Ž a quick whos who and whats what of every current mission. Its a rather welcome addition, ensuring that one is always up to speed and can make sense of what political faction or motivation is currently driving the scene. Games of this size are sometimes overwhelming, especially if one must step away from them for a few days, but Final Fantasy XVIŽ is constantly laying out the welcome mat, even creating a character who serves as a historian with knowledge of everyone „ and every royal lineage „ we encounter for reference. So when a character expresses confusion at the games actions, an answer is usually only a pause button „ or a conversation „ away. As a lead, Clive can take a bit of warming up to. For the “rst half or so of the game, hes largely doom-and-gloom stoic„ refusing to process a tragedy and see more than a single-minded view of the world. Or, as one character says, Clinging to the past like a torn blanket.Ž Some of this is explainable; his mother, after all, discarded him and turned him into a servant of the kingdom. For many of those in Final Fantasy XVI,Ž killing is their trade, even when they dont want it to be (I like wolves!,Ž exclaims one party member, when forced to kill a pack of them). But a run-in with Cid, who has dedicated his life to creating a sanctuary for discarded magic users „ and an encounter with Jill, a childhood friend who is also an ice-wielding Eikon and had been similarly enslaved by another kingdom „ makes Clive look inward. Somewhere around the 25-hour mark for me (your mileage may vary, especially if youre a faster player better skilled at combat), Clive starts to see his own life as one worth saving. RISKY ENDEAVORS This was a welcome moment; just when Final Fantasy XVIŽ was layering on the kingdoms and the royals, Clive dedicates himself to delving into his own history and magical abilities. Clive accrues more of the latter during the game, allowing his sword in one moment to seemingly transform into a blade of “ery wings and in another to disappear into instantly summoned claws. Its implied that using magic is draining, a risky endeavor that slowly saps ones lifeforce, but for much of the game Clive doesnt appear too concerned, never once barking back at us for using a torrent of abilities in any “ght. For as serious as Clive can be, Final Fantasy XVIŽ moves rather swiftly and likes to touch on hallmarks of high fantasy. There are all sorts of creatures, including dragons and disgusting spiders, and if you slow down in a town, the game can get a bit thirsty. Id be happy to show you how well I wield my blade after my shift is over,Ž we overhear one sword-wielding character say to a suitor in broad daylight. The game also toys with a will-they or wont-they vibe between Clive and Jill, which, while games can all use a little more sexiness as they mature into the dominant medium of our era, is perhaps a bit weird due to the childhood history. Still, their biggest chemistry is on the battle“eld. What do they do, Jill wonders, when exploring an ancient sanctuary “lled with rocks that come alive as various creatures. The usual,Ž Clive responds, and Final Fantasy XVIŽ leads to an extended “ght scene that ends with Clive succumbing to his magical powers, which for much of the “rst half of the game he struggles to control. Its the latter that drives his inner torment and gives the game its narrative heft. His powers are also, admittedly, fun to play with, especially as the game advances and Clive can mix and match magical abilities. About halfway through the game opens up some, as just when Clive lightens up he becomes less wary of helping others and Final Fantasy XVIŽ gives us a host of side missions to choose from. Still, the game is largely fast-paced, propelling itself forward as its overarching story becomes bigger, more complex. Im not sure I closely followed every second of it „ blessed the in-game library „ but who Clive is seeking revenge against simply shifts from time to time. And its thesis is rather direct: Would Game of ThronesŽ have been better if it had been playable? Your answer likely depends on what generation you belong to.Final Fantasy XVI goes full Game of ThronesThe video game has medieval battles and mysticism SQUARE ENIX PHOTOSThe action is full of color in Final Fantasy XVI.Ž Final Fantasy XVIŽ takes inspiration from Game of ThronesŽ in its latest adventure. FINAL FANTASY XVI€ Developer and publisher: Square Enix € Platform: PlayStation 5 € Price: $69.99 (Standard edition)Would Game of ThronesŽ have been better if it had been playable?

Its also used to add extra crunch to holiday stung, or tuna or chicken salad. But celery oers far more. Celery is a nutrient-rich, low-calorie food. Two stalks of celery contain only 15 calories. Aside from its low calorie count, celery contains dietary “ber, vitamin K, and small amounts of vitamins A and C, calcium and iron. Although celery also contains some natural sodium, its still considered a low-sodium food. Celery also has antioxidant properties, which may help reduce the risk of some chronic conditions. Made up of almost 95% water, celery is a great snack to have on hand during warm summer months to help maintain hydration. Choose celery with crisp, “rm and bright stalks in tightly formed bunches. If the leaves are attached, they should be fresh and green. Avoid celery that is soft, dry, yellowing or has brown patches. Refrigerate celery in a plastic bag for a week or more. Trim the base, and wash the stalks only when youre ready to use them. You may want to peel or pull away any tough outer strings on the celery before cooking it or eating it raw. Celery can enhance ”avors and add texture to dishes, such as salads, soups and stews. Celery pairs perfectly with dips or hummus for an easy snack. Stu the channels in celery sticks with peanut or other nut butters and dot with raisins. Or “ll the channels with a combination of softened cream cheese, chopped walnuts, dried apricots and dates.

ROACH: I'm writing in regarding my 92-year-old father. He has always been active, still plays golf and had played softball up until the age of 88. My father has a history of blood clots, so he is on blood thinners. Nowadays, my father is constantly fatigued; walking out to the garage leaves him drained, and attempting to play nine holes of golf leaves him drained. He sleeps a lot during the day. All the doctors say is: "Hey, your dad is 92 years old." So, my question is, is this a normal part of aging? „ J.N. ANSWER: While it is true that we all slow down a little bit as we get older, and 92 is certainly a very respectable age, I would not rush to blame this on his age, especially if these changes are relatively sudden. I certainly would not diagnose this as normal aging without, at least, a careful history and physical examination, as well as some judicious laboratory studies. Fatigue is a very nonspeci“c symptom that can be caused by abnormalities of virtually all your major organs, especially the heart, liver, kidney, lungs and bone marrow. Thyroid problems are another common issue, and depression is a frequently overlooked possibility, especially in older men. DEAR DR. ROACH: What is your recommendation for weight gain supplements? „ H.B. ANSWER: I don't recommend weight gain supplements, except under unusual circumstances. Most people do better eating food than using supplements such as protein powders, food replacement drinks, vitamins, minerals, herbal supplements or other over-the-counter medications purported to help people gain weight. There are clearly some exceptions to my lack of enthusiasm for these products. Many medical conditions can cause poor absorption of nutrients, and people may be prescribed supplements by their physician, which may be completely appropriate for them. One example is in people with very severe lung disease, such as emphysema, who often lose a great deal of weight. Increasing one's healthy fat intake can help improve weight as well as reduce demand on the lungs. Consuming protein and energy supplements almost never has a bene“t compared to when healthy people eat well. DR. ROACHAdvice Columnist Doctors ignore fatigue in older man due to aging DEAR HELOISE: Currently, it's working for me to answer an unknown number with: "How may I help you?" If I get a few seconds of complete silence (a computer seems to wait for "hello") or I hear a "boop," I know to hang up. A legitimate caller will respond almost always with who they are. „ Carl Huber, Port Charlotte, Florida DEAR HELOISE: I've attached a helpful hint that I've been meaning to send to you for a long time now. I don't believe I've ever seen this hint in your column, but I may be mistaken. My beloved "Kitten Face," who is 14 years old and has kidney disease, takes saline IV injections about three times a week, for a year and a half now. The injections help her greatly, and she takes them like a real trooper. Thank you for your column. I really enjoy reading it every morning. „ Mike Vorndran, Fort Wayne, Indiana DEAR HELOISE: After reading the hint from the grocery store manager about stolen purses, I have a suggestion that may work for others. I, too, am a distracted shopper. I read labels and like to check out what's on sale, which always makes for a distracted moment. So, if my purse has a strap, I will wrap it around the cart handle tightly and use the child seat belt buckle to secure it to the cart. If that isn't available, I put my purse in the bottom of the cart next to the back of the cart and bury it under groceries. So far, so good. „ Cathy, The Villages, Florida DEAR READERS: If you have a stain that is tough to get rid of, make a paste that is equal parts baking soda and salt. Use this only on surfaces that can handle some abrasive scrubbing, because it could scratch a soft surface. Baking soda is so useful for cleaning and deodorizing. I have put together a six-page pamphlet, entitled "Heloise's Baking Soda Hints and Recipes," that lays out several uses for baking soda. To order a pamphlet, go to www.Heloise. com. You also can get this handy pamphlet by sending $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope to: Heloise/ Baking Soda, P.O.

PAGE 10B TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.com DEAR ABBY: I would like your help on how to deal with a problem I am having with my motherin-law. The in-laws call at least once a week wanting us to go out to dinner with them. It's embarrassing because my mother-in-law is always horrible to the waiter. She complains about everything and usually causes some sort of a scene. My husband and I are at a loss about how to tell her this is why we no longer want to go out with them. We have tried making excuses and inviting them to our house instead, but she refuses to take no for an answer and demands we join them at a restaurant. If we don't, she gets mad and has hurt feelings. Help! „ Eating Me Up in Alabama DEAR EATING ME UP: Your mother-in-law's behavior is indeed an embarrassment, and your feelings are justi“ed. Your husband should talk frankly with both his parents about why neither of you are comfortable eating out with them. If it isn't addressed, it won't be “xed. DEAR ABBY: My ex-husband's stepbrother died unexpectedly, and the ex wants to take our son to the funeral. The ex and his stepbrother were not close. The ex has not been active in our son's life. He moved to another state two years ago, and it took repeated explanations for my son to understand who the person was who died. My son told me he doesn't know his dad's family, so it doesn't bother him they aren't a part of his life. He hasn't asked to attend the funeral or asked anything else about his uncle. I don't think he should go. Should I let my ex take him so our son can see how many people have chosen not to be a part of his life, or should I refuse? „ Not in His Life DEAR NOT IN HIS LIFE: If you can resist mentioning your opinion to your son, he may not view meeting his paternal relatives the same way you do. Of one thing I am sure: He should not feel forced to go if he doesn't want to. I think the answer to your question depends on how old your son is and whether your ex is responsible enough to be trusted with the boy. Only you can answer that. DEAR ABBY: My mother is 74 and has been widowed for 10 years. During this time, my sister and I have tried to convince her to downsize from her very large, hard-to-maintain house to something more manageable. She is always overwhelmed. Friends and other family members offer to help her with it, and she acts like it's more than she can manage. We are now watching her becoming overwhelmed by everything in life, not just the house. We are also wondering if some dementia is starting to set in. My sister and I want her to see a counselor and talk with her doctor, but she's too overwhelmed to do this either. Can we make an appointment with a counselor or minister for her? „ Trying To Help DEAR TRYING TO HELP: Make an appointment for her with her doctor, provide the transportation and stay with her if possible. The doctor should be informed about what's going on so your mother can be evaluated. Changes like the ones you describe could be symptoms of an underlying illness as well as dementia, and the sooner you can “nd out, the better for your mother.Reader is embarrassed by in-law's rude behavior DEAR ABBYAdvice Columnist KEN KEN THE LOGIC PUZZLE THAT MAKES YOU SMARTER GOREN BRIDGE WITH BOB JONES PREVIOUS ANSWERS PEARLS BEFORE SWINE THE WIZARD OF ID By Brant Parker and Johnny Hart MUTTS By Patrick McDonnell HAGAR THE HORRIBLE MARVIN By Tom Armstrong GARFIELD HI AND LOIS By Brian and Greg Walker BORN LOSER PEANUTS By Charles Schulz BLONDIE By Dean Young and John Marshall Trouble in lion country BEETLE BAILEY

NATIONAL NEWS ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | 1 ASSOCIATED PRESSRussian President Vladimir Putin on Monday blasted organizers of a weekend revolt, the gravest threat yet to his power, as traitors who played into the hands of Ukraines government and its allies.Speaking in a stern tone and looking tired in a five-minute TV address near midnight, Putin sought to project stabil ity. He tried to strike a balance between criticizing the uprisings perpetrators to prevent another crisis, and not antagoniz ing the bulk of the mercenaries and their hardline supporters, some of whom are incensed at the Kremlins handling of the situation. Putin, whose troops are stretched thin in the face of a Ukrainian counteroffen sive, praised the rank and file mercenaries for not letting the situation descend into major bloodshed.Ž And he said the nation had stood united, although there had been localized signs of support for the uprising. Earlier in the day, the head of the mer cenary Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, who led the rebellion, defended his short-lived insurrection. He again taunted Russias military, but said he hadnt been seeking to stage a coup against Putin. On Friday, Prigozhin had called for an armed rebellion to oust the military leadership. Putins address was announced by his spokesman in advance and billed by Russian state media as something that would define the fate of Russia.Ž In fact, the address didnt yield groundbreaking developments. Abbas Gallyamov, a former Krem lin speechwriter turned political analyst, called the address weak. In a Facebook post, he said it was a sign that Putin is acutely dissatisfied with how he looked in this whole story and is trying to cor rect the situation.Ž The Kremlin later showed Putin meeting with top security, law enforce ment and military officials, including Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, whom the uprising had tried to remove. Putin thanked members of his team for their work over the weekend, implying sup port for the embattled Shoigu. Earlier, the authorities released a video of Shoigu reviewing troops in Ukraine. Putin, who declined to name Prigo zhin, said mutiny organizers had tried to force the groups soldiers to shoot their own.Ž He said Russias enemiesŽ had hoped the mutiny would divide and weaken Russia, but they miscalculated.Ž Western officials have been muted in their public comments on the mutiny, and President Joe Biden said Mon day that the U.S. and NATO were not involved. Speaking at the White House, Biden said he was cautious about speak ing publicly because he wanted to give Putin no excuse to blame this on the West and blame this on NATO.Ž We made clear that we were not involved, we had nothing to do with it,Ž he said.ASSOCIATED PRESSPeople shout and wave a ”ag of the Wagner Group military company to servicemen prior to their leaving an area at the headquarte rs of the Southern Military District on Saturday in Rostov-on-Don, Russia.Putin: Rebellion played into enemies hands LOLITA C. BALDOR and MATTHEW LEEAssociated PressWASHINGTON „ The Pentagon will announce it is sending up to $500 mil lion in military aid to Ukraine, including more than 50 heav ily armored vehicles and an infusion of missiles for air defense systems, U.S. officials said Monday, as Ukrainian and Western leaders try to sort out the impact of the brief week end insurrection in Russia. The aid is aimed at bolster ing Ukraines counteroffensive, which has been moving slowly in its early stages. It wasnt clear Monday if Ukrainian forces will be able to take advantage of the disarray in the Russian ranks, in the aftermath of the short-lived rebellion by Yevgeny Prigozhin and the Wagner mercenary group that he has controlled. An announcement on the aid package is expected Tues day. This would be the 41st time since the Russian invasion into Ukraine in February 2022 that the U.S. has provided mil itary weapons and equipment through presidential draw down authority. The program allows the Pentagon to quickly take items from its own stocks and deliver them to Ukraine. Because the aid packages are generally planned in advance and recently included many of the same critical weapons for the battlefront, the contents werent likely chosen based on the weekend rebellion. But, the missiles and heavy vehicles can be used as Ukraine tries to capitalize on what has been a growing feud between the Wagner Group leader and Russias military brass, with simmering questions about how many of Prigozhins forces may leave the fight. The mercenaries left Ukraine to seize a military headquarters in a southern Russian city and moved hun dreds of miles toward Moscow before turning around after less than 24 hours on Saturday. According to the officials, the U.S. will send 30 Brad ley Fighting Vehicles and 25 of the armored Stryker vehi cles to Ukraine, along with missiles for the High-Mobil ity Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) and the Patriot air defense systems.US to send $500 million in weapons, military aid to Ukraine ASSOCIATED PRESSU.S.-supplied M777 howitzer shells lie on the ground on June 18, 2022 to “re at Russian positions in Ukraines eastern Donbas region.A supplement to your hometown newspaper

APG NATIONAL NEWS 2 | TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023SHOALS, Ind. „ A tornado struck an Indiana home, killing a man and injuring his wife, while two people died in Arkansas after a tree fell onto a house, as severe weather rumbled through several central states. The tornado that hit the home Sunday evening was part of a storm system that pushed through a rural, wooded area of southern Indianas Martin County. The injured woman was flown by helicopter to a hospital, said Cameron Wolf, Martin Countys emer gency management director. The newer, log cabin-style house was leveled as a storm that also had large hail and other strong winds raked the area about 85 miles southwest of Indianapolis. The home that was totally destroyed, just a few feet away they had a shop building that is perfectly good,Ž Wolf said. I mean, didnt even touch it.Ž Another tornado touched down Sunday afternoon in the suburban Indianapolis communities of Greenwood and Bargersville, officials said. Bargersville Fire Chief Erik Funkhouser said at least 75 homes suffered moderate to severe damage as the latter tornado crossed Indiana State Road 135 in the area of Interstate 69. Crews did not find any deaths or injuries from the tornado, which officials estimated was on the ground for about 15 minutes. Kimber Olson, 42, told her 8-year-old son to sit in the bathtub while she stood outside and recorded video of what looked like two cyclones circling toward her apartment in Bargersville The sound is deafening,Ž Olson told The Indianap olis Star. Youll never forget the sound. Your ears pop in such a strange way. You get a ring in your ear.Ž When the tornado got closer, she went inside, closed all the doors and jumped in the bathtub with the boy. She heard glass explode as her window shattered. In Arkansas, sheriffs officials said two people were killed and a third was injured Sunday night in the cen tral community of Carlisle when a tree fell onto a home, KTHV-TV reported. Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders declared a state of emergency, citing numerous downed power lines in the state. The National Guard said it was providing pota ble water to the community of West Helena, in eastern Arkansas, after water service was knocked out over night. High winds also caused tens of thousands of homes and businesses to lose electricity in Arkansas, Michi gan and Tennessee. In the city of Millington, north of Memphis, officials reported multiple rescues from homes and cars and planes overturned at the citys small airport. No inju ries were immediately reported.

The Governors Awards will be held on Nov. 18 at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Ange les. AROUND THE WORLDNATION & WORLD HELENA, Mont. (AP) „ Work is underway to clean up rail cars carrying hazardous materials that fell into the Yel lowstone River in southern Montana after a bridge collapsed over the weekend, officials said Monday. Montana Rail Link is developing a cleanup plan and is working with its unions and BNSF Railway to reroute freight trains in the area to limit disruption of the supply chain, Beth Archer, a spokesperson for the U.S. Environ mental Protection Agency, said in a joint statement issued with the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and Montana Rail Link. Contractors and a large crane were on site to stabilize and remove cars from the river once a plan is set, officials said. Some rail cars that did not go off the tracks were removed from the area, and two cars carrying sodium hydrosulfide had their contents transferred to other cars and moved to safety, Archer said. Montana Rail Link will be responsible for all cleanup costs, CEO Joe Racicot told a news conference. Sixteen cars derailed, and 10 of them ended up in the river downstream from Yello wstone National Park Saturday morning. Six mangled cars that carried hot asphalt, three hold ing molten sulfur and one with scrap metal remained in the rushing water on Monday in an area surrounded by farmland near the town of Columbus, about 40 miles west of Billings. Two of the cars were submerged, and a dive team was deployed to gather more information, Archer said in a state ment. Joni Sandoval, the EPA on-scene coordinator, told a news conference her agency has invited experts from federal and state fish and wildlife agencies to come to the site to assess how the derailment has affected wildlife. The asphalt and sulfur solidified and sank in the cold water, officials said. Some asphalt globules were found downriver, but they are not water soluble and are not expected to impact water quality, the statement said. Water samples taken Saturday showed the materials from the derailment had not affected water quality, Shasta Stein weden of the state Department of Environmental Quality said. The tests showed no presence of petroleum and sulfur levels were consistent with upstream water samples, she said. Results from samples taken Sunday and Monday were still pending. The cause of the collapse was under investigation. Part of the train had crossed the bridge before it failed, and some cars at the back remained on stable ground at the other end. No injuries were reported. The collapse also cut two major fiber-optic lines. Global Net said late Sunday that it had developed a temporary workaround. Company officials did not return a call Monday seeking further information.Project begins to clean up train derailment in Yellowstone RiverALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) „ An argument over seating at an Albu querque movie theater escalated into a shooting that left a man dead and sent frightened filmgoers scrambling to flee, police said Monday. Detectives with the Albuquerque Police Department filed charges Mon day in Metropolitan Court against 19-year-old Enrique Padilla in connec tion with the Sunday evening shooting at a cinema complex next to an interstate highway. Padilla was at a hospital under guard Monday evening while being treated for a gunshot wound, police spokes man Gilbert Gallegos said. It was unclear whether Padilla had a legal representative who could speak on his behalf. Witnesses told police that a man later identified as Padilla arrived at the theater with his girlfriend and found another couple in at least one of their reserved seats. Theater staff attempted to help resolve the dispute, but it escalated with a hurled bucket of popcorn, shoving and then gunfire, according to police. Michael Tenorio, 52, was shot and died at the scene. His wife, Trina Teno rio, said he was unarmed. The shooter fled, and a wounded Padilla was found hiding behind a bush outside an emergency exit, according to police. A gun was also found outside that was compatible with spent casings from the shooting. Emergency dispatchers received about 20 calls as other people fled the theater. A criminal complaint and arrest war rant against Padilla listed open counts of homicide, shooting at an occupied build ing and tampering with evidence. The complaint said Padilla was wounded in the abdomen but did not give further explanation. An off-duty police officer who was at the movie administered emergency aid to Tenorio. The officer witnessed the confrontation but did not see a weapon in the darkened theater, reporting a rap id-fire succession of gunshots before one man in the dispute ran out.Man fatally shot in theater over seat dispute APG NATIONAL NEWSASSOCIATED PRESSSeveral train cars are immersed Saturday in the Yellowstone River after a bridge collapse near Columbus, Mont.

JENNIFER MCDERMOTT, PATRICK WHITTLE and HOLLY RAMERAssociated PressAs an international group of agencies investigates why the Titan submersible imploded while carrying five people to the Titanic wreckage, U.S. maritime officials say theyll issue a report aimed at improving the safety of submersibles worldwide. Investigators from the U.S., Can ada, France and the United Kingdom are working closely together on the probe of the June 18 accident, which happened in an unforgiving and dif ficult-to-access regionŽ of the North Atlantic, said U.S. Coast Guard Rear Adm. John Mauger, of the Coast Guard First District. Salvage operations from the sea floor are ongoing, and the accident site has been mapped, Coast Guard chief investigator Capt. Jason Neubauer said Sunday. He did not give a timeline for the investigation. Neubauer said the final report will be issued to the Inter national Maritime Organization. My primary goal is to prevent a similar occurrence by making the nec essary recommendations to advance the safety of the maritime domain worldwide,Ž Neubauer said. Evidence is being collected in the port of St. Johns, Newfoundland, in coordination with Canadian authori ties. All five people on board the Titan were killed. Debris from the vessel was located about 12,500 feet underwa ter and roughly 1,600 feet from the Titanic on the ocean floor, the Coast Guard said last week. One of the experts whom the Coast Guard has been consulting said Mon day that he doesnt believe there is any more evidence to find. It is my professional opinion that all the debris is located in a very small area and that all debris has been found,Ž said Carl Hartsfield, a retired Navy captain and submarine officer who now directs a lab at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution that designs and operates autonomous underwater vehicles. The search is taking place in a com plex ocean environment where the Gulf Stream meets the Labrador Cur rent, an area where challenging and hard-to-predict ocean currents can make controlling an underwater vehi cle more difficult, said Donald Murphy, an oceanographer who served as chief scientist of the Coast Guards International Ice Patrol. Hartsfield, however, said based on the data hes reviewed and the perfor mance of the remote vehicles so far, he doesnt expect currents to be a problem. Also working in the searchers favor, he said, is that the debris is located in a compact area and the ocean bottom where they are searching is smooth and not near any of the Titanic debris. Authorities are still trying to sort out what agency or agencies are responsible for determining the cause of the trag edy, which happened in international waters. OceanGate Expeditions, the com pany that owned and operated the Titan, is based in the U.S. but the submersible was registered in the Bahamas. Meanwhile, the Titans mother ship, the Polar Prince, was from Canada, and those killed were from England, Pakistan, France, and the U.S. A key part of any investigation is likely to be the Titan itself. The ves sel was not registered either with the U.S. or with international agencies that regulate safety. And it wasnt classified by a maritime industry group that sets standards on matters such as hull con struction. The investigation is also complicated by the fact that the world of deepsea exploration is not well-regulated. OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, who was piloting the Titan when it imploded, had complained that regula tions can stifle progress. Will Kohnen, chairman of the manned undersea vehicles committee of the Marine Technology Society, said Monday that he is hopeful the inves tigation will spur reforms. He noted that many Coast Guards, including in the United States, have regulations for tourist submersibles but none cover the depths the Titan was aiming to reach. The International Maritime Organi zation, the U.N.s maritime agency, has similar rules for tourist submersibles in international waters. The Marine Technology Society is an international group of ocean engineers, technolo gists, policy makers, and educators. Its just a matter of sitting every one at the table and hashing it out,Ž Kohnen said of amending rules to require submersibles to be certified and inspected, provide emergency and plans, and carry life support systems.Coast Guard wants to improve the safety of submersibles ASSOCIATED PRESSThe wrecks of the Titanic and the Titan sit on the ocean ”oor, separated by 1,600 feet and 111 years of history. How they came together unfolded over an intense week that raised temporary hopes and left lingering questions. BRIEFCASE High-speed internet is a necessity, Biden saysWASHINGTON „ President Joe Biden says high-speed internet is no lon ger a luxury but rather an absolute necessity.Ž To that end, he pledged Monday that every household in the U.S. would have access by 2030, using cables made in the country. Biden says more than 35,000 projects are already funded or underway to lay cables that provide internet access as part of the American Rescue Plan.Ž But he says access is not enough. He says hes working with service providers to bring down costs on what has become a house hold utility „ like water or gas „ but is often priced at a premium.H&M workers strike for higher pay, shutting down storesMADRID „ Hundreds of retail workers have walked off the job across Spain in a new round of strikes against the fashion giant H&M Group. The move Monday is extending a series of store clo sures in the middle of the summer sales season. Spanish store workers at the Swedish multinationals brands including H&M, Other Stories and Cos are seek ing pay rises in line with the higher cost of living. They also are protesting increased workloads linked to layoffs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The walkout is the third day of strikes by employees of H&M Group and more are expected in July. Flagship stores in Madrid have closed.Wall Street drifts to start what could be a quiet weekNEW YORK „ Stock indexes drifted lower as Wall Streets pullback from its recent rally carried into a second week. The S&P 500 fell 0.4% Monday, even though the majority of stocks within the index and on Wall Street climbed. Tech stocks were the heaviest weights on the market and helped drag the Nasdaq to a loss of 1.2%. The Dow slipped 12 points, or less than 0.1%. This week is relatively light on reports that could shed more light on whether the economy will be able to avoid a painful recession despite sharp hikes to interest rates since early last year.Amazon is investing $7.8B in cloud computing operationsCOLUMBUS, Ohio „ Amazons profitable cloud business will invest roughly $7.8 billion by the end of 2029 to expand its data center operations in central Ohio. State leaders made the announcement involving Amazon Web Services on Monday. It comes as Ohio seeks to establish itself as the Midwests technology hub. AWS has invested $6 billion in Ohio since 2015, the states second largest private sector investment. The states privatized economic develop ment office says the new operations will add 230 direct Amazon jobs to the 1,000 already in the state, and 1,000 support jobs.

SCIENCE &TECH ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | 5JAKE BLEIBERG, KEN MILLER and ISABELLA OMALLEYAssociated PressDALLAS „ Scorching temperatures brought on by a heat domeŽ have taxed the Texas power grid and threaten to bring record highs to the state before they are expected to expand to other parts of the U.S. during the coming week, putting even more people at risk. Going forward, that heat is going to expand ... north to Kansas City and the entire state of Oklahoma, into the Mississippi Valley ... to the far western Flor ida Panhandle and parts of western Alabama,Ž while remaining over Texas, said Bob Oravec, lead forecaster with the National Weather Service. Record high temperatures around 110 degrees Fahr enheit are forecast in parts of western Texas on Monday, and relief is not expected before the Fourth of July holiday, Oravec said. Cori Iadonisi, of Dallas, summed up the weather simply: Its just too hot here.Ž Iadonisi, 40, said she often urges local friends to visit her native Washington state to beat the heat in the summer. You cant go outside,Ž Iadonisi said of the hot months in Texas. You cant go for a walk.ŽWHAT IS A HEAT DOME?A heat dome occurs when stationary high pressure with warm air combines with warmer than usual air in the Gulf of Mexico and heat from the sun that is nearly directly overhead, Texas State Climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon said. By the time we get into the middle of summer, its hard to get the hot air aloft,Ž said Nielsen-Gammon, a professor at Texas A&Ms College of Atmospheric Sciences. If its going to happen, this is the time of year it will.Ž Nielsen-Gammon said July and August dont have as much sunlight because the sun is retreating from the summer solstice, which was Wednesday. One thing that is a little unusual about this heat wave is we had a fairly wet April and May, and usually that extra moisture serves as an air conditioner,Ž Niel sen-Gammon said. ŽBut the air aloft is so hot that it wasnt able to prevent the heat wave from occurring and, in fact, added a bit to the humidity.Ž High heat continues this week after it prompted Texas power grid operator, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, to ask residents last week to volun tarily cut back on power usage because of anticipated record demand on the system. The National Integrated Heat Health Informa tion System reports more than 46 million people from west Texas and southeastern New Mexico to the west ern Florida Panhandle are currently under heat alerts. The NIHHIS is a joint project of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The heat comes after Sunday storms that killed three people and left more than 100,000 customers without electricity in both Arkansas and Tennessee and tens of thousands powerless in Georgia, Mississippi and Loui siana, according to poweroutage.us. Earlier this month, the most populous county in Oregon filed a $1.5 billion lawsuit against more than a dozen large fossil fuel companies to recover costs related to extreme weather events linked to climate change, including a deadly 2021 heat dome. Multnomah County, home to Portland and known for typically mild weather, alleges the combined carbon pollution the companies emitted was a substantial in causing and exacerbating record-breaking tempera tures in the Pacific Northwest that killed 69 people in that county. An attorney for Chevron Corp., Theodore J. Boutrous Jr., said in a statement that the lawsuit makes novel, baseless claims.ŽWHAT ARE THE HEALTH THREATS?Extreme heat can be particularly dangerous to vulnerable populations such as children, the elderly, and outdoor workers need extra support, Symptoms of heat illness can include heavy sweat ing, nausea, dizziness and fainting. Some strategies to stay cool include drinking chilled fluids, apply ing a cloth soaked with cold water onto your skin, and spending time in air-conditioned environments. Cecilia Sorensen, a physician and associate professor of Environmental Health Sciences at Columbia Uni versity Medical Center, said heat-related conditions are becoming a growing public health concern because of the warming climate. Theres huge issues going on in Texas right now around energy insecurity and the compounding cli mate crises were seeing,Ž Sorensen said. This is also one of those examples where, if you are wealthy enough to be able to afford an air conditioner, youre going to be safer, which is a huge climate health equity issue.ŽASSOCIATED PRESSBrandon Pickard cools o while skating Friday at the Heath Eiland and Morgan Moss BMX Skate Park on a hot afternoon in Austin, Texas.Scorching temperatures in Texas are expected to spread

SPORTS ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 | 6 ASSOCIATED PRESSOMAHA, Neb. „ LSU went from its low point of the season to the ultimate high in a span of 24 hours. A day after it gave up the most runs ever in a College World Series game, LSU cranked up its offense and won its first national title since 2009 with an 18-4 victory over Florida on Monday night in the third and deciding game of the finals. LSU (54-17) staved off elimination three times in bracket play and bounced back from the humiliating 24-4 loss in Game 2 to claim its seventh championship, second to Southern Californias 12. We got punched in the mouth yesterday,Ž Tigers star Dylan Crews said. Thats the beauty of baseball. You wake up in the morning and do it all over again. We woke up today and you could see on everybodys faces that we were ready to go. Nobody in the country was going to beat us today.Ž The Tigers wiped out an early 2-0 deficit with a six-run second inning against Jac Caglianone (7-4). The runs kept coming until they finished with the most in a title game since USCs 21-14 win over Arizona State in 1998. The 14-run margin was the largest ever in a final. Their 24 hits were most in a CWS game. It wasnt our day, all the way around,Ž Gators catcher BT Riopelle said. Thatcher Hurd (8-3) gave up Wyatt Langfords two-run homer in the first and then allowed no hits or runs while retiring 18 of the next 21 batters. Riley Cooper took over to start the seventh and gave up Ty Evans CWSrecord fifth homer, and Gavin Guidry finished the combined five-hitter. Cade Beloso said Johnsons message to the team in the morning meeting was simple. It was, One game for the national championship. Are you in? Everybody was, Yeah, lets go. You cant let baseball get to you,Ž Beloso said. The game is brutal sometimes. You have to show up and play the next day.Ž There was speculation after Sundays blowout loss about the Tigers bringing back ace Paul Skenes for a third start in Omaha. He threw a combined 243 pitches over 15 2/3 innings in two spectacular appearances, and he would have been working on three days rest. It turned out Skenes was able to watch from the dugout in the comfort of his sneakers while LSU poured on the runs and Hatcher kept dealing. Skenes headed to the bullpen to do some stretching and throwing in the seventh inning. He went back to the dugout after the eighth and stayed there until he and teammates rushed the mound when Guidry struck out Colby Halter to end it. Skenes was named the Most Outstanding Player of the CWS. The overwhelmingly partisan LSU crowd included Kim Mulkey, coach of the national champion womens basketball team and the mother of Kramer Robertson, who played shortstop on the 2017 team that lost to Florida in the CWS finals. The Tigers had been pointing toward a title run since their first team meeting last August. Coach Jay Johnson brought back the Southeastern Conference player of the year in Crews and the rest of the core of the2022 lineup. Three key transfers took LSU to a higher level. Skenes was the first college pitcher in 12 years with 200 strikeouts and could be the No. 1 pick in the amateur draft. Tommy White hit 24 homers and drove in a nationleading 105 runs. Hurd was solid as a starter and reliever and matched his longest outing of the year in the title game. Right people, right place, right time,Ž Johnson said. This is the way it was supposed to go.Ž LSU joined Mississippi, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt in a line of four straight national champions from the SEC. Oh my gosh, this is what I dreamed of since I was a freshman, holding this trophy,Ž Crews said. Were champions, baby, bringing it back to LSU. Its been a long journey for us. We dealt with a lot of stuff. Just to finally say were national champions ... I cannot wait to put another flag over the field. Its going to be awesome.Ž Florida (54-17) won the SEC regular-season title, was the No. 2 national seed and set school records for wins and home runs „ the Gators hit 17 of the 35 homers by all teams in the CWS. But the Gators were unable to carry over the momentum from their record-setting production Sunday. I thought our team was in a really good place,Ž Florida coach Kevin OSullivan said. I thought BP was good. They were loose. Put two on the board the bottom half of the first. I thought the dugout was electric. And then all of a sudden we had four walks and I think two hit-by pitches ... and then we had to go to the pen earlier than we wanted to.Ž Caglianone, Floridas two-way star, struggled with his command for a second straight start and was done on the mound after 1 1/3 innings. He remained in the game as the designated hitter.No doubt: LSU wins CWS ASSOCIATED PRESSLSU closer Gavin Guidry, left, hugs teammates after defeating Florida in Game 3 on Monday in Omaha, Neb. Connor McDavid wins third NHL MVP, falls one vote short of unanimous selectionNASHVILLE, Tenn. „ Connor McDavid won his third Hart Trophy as NHL MVP on Monday night, falling one vote short of unanimous selection after the highest-scoring season by a player in more than a quarter-century.

She received the Honda Cup in a ceremony at UCLA. Its the second consecutive year that a womens basketball player won the award as South Carolinas Aliyah Boston was the recipient in 2022. Overall, 17 basketball players have won the Honda Cup „ the most of any sport. Clark, the AP womens basketball Player of the Year, helped Iowa reach the national championship game for the “ rst time in school history this past April before the team lost to LSU. The junior became the “ rst Division I womens basketball player to have over 1,000 points and 300 assists in the same season.Mets drop 8 games under .500, lose for 7th time in 9 gamesNEW YORK „ Joey Wiemer hit a go-ahead, two-run homer in the sixth inning, lifting the Milwaukee Brewers to a 2-1 victory on Monday night that dropped the struggling New York Mets a season-worst eight games under .500.

Devon Williams completed a three-hitter for his 14th save.Strider, Braves best TwinsATLANTA (AP) „ Marcell Ozuna hit a go-ahead homer in the seventh and Spencer Strider (9-2) allowed three hits in seven innings while striking out 10 to win his “ fth consecutive decision. Ronald Acuña Jr. added a two-run homer in a three-run seventh. In the matchup of “ rst-place teams in the NL East and AL Central, the Braves won for the 11th time in 12 games. Minnesota played its “ rst game at Truist Park, which opened in 2017.

TODAY IN HISTORY TUESDAY, JUNE 27, 2023 ASSOCIATED PRESSThe British battleship Rodney bombarding enemy strong points on the French coast on June 27, 1944. A British cruiser and a dest royer can be seen in the background. Today is Tuesday, June 27, the 178th day of 2023. There are 187 days left in the year.ON THIS DATEIn 1844, Mormon leader Joseph Smith and his brother, Hyrum, were killed by a mob in Carthage, Illinois. In 1880, author-lecturer Helen Keller, who lived most of her life without sight or hearing, was born in Tuscumbia, Alabama. In 1942, the FBI announced the arrests of eight Nazi saboteurs put ashore in Florida and Long Island, New York. (All were tried and sentenced to death; six were executed while two were spared for turning themselves in and cooperating with U.S. authorities.) In 1944, during World War II, American forces liberated the French port of Cherbourg (SHEHR-boorg) from the Germans. In 1950, the U.N. Security Council passed a resolution calling on member nations to help South Korea repel an invasion from the North. In 1957, Hurricane Audrey slammed into coastal Louisiana and Texas as a Category 4 storm; the official death toll from the storm was placed at 390, although a variety of state, federal and local sources have estimated the number of fatalities at between 400 and 600. In 1974, President Richard Nixon opened an official visit to the Soviet Union. In 1991, Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, the first Black jurist to sit on the nations highest court, announced his retirement.

In 2005, BTK serial killer Dennis Rader pleaded guilty to 10 murders that had spread fear across Wichita, Kansas, beginning in the 1970s. In 2006, a constitutional amendment to ban desecration of the American flag died in a Senate cliffhanger, falling one vote short of the 67 needed to send it to states for ratification. In 2011, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (blahGOY-uh-vich) was convicted by a federal jury in Chicago on a wide range of corruption charges, including the allegation that hed tried to sell or trade President Barack Obamas U.S. Senate seat. (Blagojevich was later sentenced to 14 years in prison; his sentence was commuted by President Donald Trump in February 2020.)TEN YEARS AGOThe Senate passed, 68-32, comprehensive legislation offering the hope of citizenship to millions of immigrants living illegally in Americas shadows; however, the measure became stalled in the GOP-led House. President Barack Obama visited Senegal, where he urged African leaders to extend equal rights to gays and lesbians but was bluntly rebuked by Senegals president, Macky Sall, who said his country still isnt readyŽ to decriminalize homosexuality. Kevin Rudd was sworn in as Australian prime minister a day after toppling rival Julia Gillard.FIVE YEARS AGO Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, whose vote often decided cases on abortion, gay rights and other contentious issues, announced his retirement. The Supreme Court ruled that government workers cant be forced to contribute to labor unions that represent them in collective bargaining. Joe Jackson, the patriarch of the singing Jackson family, died in Las Vegas at the age of 89.ONE YEAR AGO Ukrainian officials said scores of civilians were feared killed after a Russian missile strike hit a crowded shopping mall in the central city of Kremenchuk. Ukraines president said the number of victims was unimaginable,Ž citing reports that more than 1,000 civilians were inside at the time of the attack. The Supreme Court said a high school football coach who sought to kneel and pray on the field after games was protected by the Constitution. Opponents said the decision would open the door to much more coercive prayerŽ in public schools. Ken Williams, who wrote or co-wrote hundred of tunes for a vast array of performers, including The Main Ingredients hit Everybody Plays the Fool,Ž died at age 83.TODAYS BIRTHDAYS Former Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt is 85.

Consumer confidence fell in May as Americans, particularly older ones, became more pessimistic about the labor market, on top of elevated anxiety over inflation. Economists project that the gauge ticked up to 103.9 in June. A reading of 90 or better reflects a healthy economy.Today Home sales updateThe Commerce Department delivers May data for sales of newly built homes today. Economists forecast that sales slowed last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 670,000 homes from 683,000 in April. The housing market remains tight. Demand is still outpacing the supply of homes, though prices have fallen. Overall, the market has cooled since the Federal Reserve started raising interest rates, which has driven mortgage rates higher.Walgreens reports earningsWalgreens reports its fiscal third-quarter financial results. Analysts expect the largest U.S. drugstore chain to report profit of $1.07 per share, which would mark its first quarter of growth after four straight contractions. Profits had been slipping amid tougher comparisons with quarters that included boosts from people getting COVID-19 tests and vaccinations. The companys latest results will give investors a closer look at consumer spending amid the squeeze from inflation.0 400 800 M A M F J D 636 649 656 683 est. 670 631New home sales seasonally adjusted annual rate in thousandsSource: FactSetConsumer confidence monthly Source: FactSet0 60 120 J M A M F J est. 104 106 104 102 2023 103 104 22 23 MONEY & MARKET$Page 3 www.yoursun.com
