Wendi Folgleson, wearing a T-shirt that read Hunger Hero,Ž has been doing this for seven years. I absolutely love it. I loved it from day one,Ž she said. Shes one person in an army of volunteers in Sarasota, Manatee and DeSoto counties who give their time and talents to nonpro“ t organizations. It just makes you feel so good because you feel like youre doing something helpful for the community and for a community that needs it,Ž she said. But she and other volunteers are a minority in Florida, according to data from AmeriCorps and the U.S Census Bureau. In AmeriCorps latest biennial report, the nationwide rate of formal volunteering through organizations dropped by seven percentage points, from 30% in 2019 to 23.2% in 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Florida ranks at the bottom of the list. In 2021, 15.9% of Floridians surveyed said they formally volunteered through an organization. Thats compared with 26.2% in Colorado, 28.8% in Connecticut, 29.8% in Delaware and 40% in Utah. Other low-ranking states include Nevada, at 16.8%, New Mexico at 19.7% California at 18.3% and Georgia at 19.9%. I am shocked by the number, to be quite honest with you,Ž said All Faiths director of philanthropy, Rachel Barkley. All Faiths has one of the largest volunteer sta s in the area. Last year, 3,150 volunteers performed more than 40,000 hours of work at the food bank, Barkley says. But in 2021, at the Demand for volunteers often exceeds supplyUnpaid workforce hasnt bounced completely back from pandemics upheaval By NANCY J. SEMONSTAFF WRITERPORT CHARLOTTE „ Some private schools are seeing more families applying for the upcoming school year. O cials with the facilities say it might be due to a new Florida law making $8,000 tuition vouchers available to all school-age children regardless of family income. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed House Bill 1 into law in March, which also allows vouchers to be used for home-schooling expenses in some cases. The legislation goes into e ect Saturday and covers children for the upcoming school year. Those choosing not to use the vouchers can put the money into an education savings account. We have seen an increase in interest ƒ now that every family is eligible,Ž said Rev. John Belmonte, superintendent of Catholic Education Diocese of Venice. Belmonte oversees 15 schools spread over six Southwest Florida counties. There are some 6,000 students in grades pre-K through 12 attending schools in the diocese, including St. Charles Borremeo Catholic School in Port Charlotte, Epiphany Cathedral School in Venice and Cardinal Mooney High School in Sarasota. The high schools website has a pop-up link that directs visitors to learn more about the voucher program. St. Charles School has varying rates depending on whether the students family is a parishioner of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church, a Catholic attending another church, or a non-Catholic. Its website shows a tuition range of $6,995 to $9,000 per student. Other schools, both religious and non-religious, are seeing more applicants as well. We are anticipating more of an in” ux because of the voucher program,Ž said Tre Kitson, assistant registrar at Englewood Christian School. She said shes been urging families to register sooner rather than later.Ž Kitson has talked to parents who said some private schools in the area are “ lling quickly. Englewood Christian Schools tuition for all grades K-12 is $7,595 for the 2023-24 school year. Kitson said thats because the schools administrator and pastor, the Rev. Michael Lindsey, wanted to make sure the school has access to all parentsŽ and does not di erentiate by grade levels. The new vouchers would cover Englewood Christian Schools tuition in full. At the Family Christian Academy on Quesada Avenue in Port Charlotte, dean of academics Candy Jernigan said the school is still looking at how that bill will impactŽ her school.Private schools get state boostSchools report enrollment up after DeSantis signs voucher bill PHOTO PROVIDED St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Schools class of 2018 coed soccer team celebrates their FGCL middle school championship game over St. Marthas School.

By MARK SHERMANASSOCIATED PRESSWASHINGTON „ The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a rmative action in college admissions, declaring race cannot be a factor and forcing institutions of higher education to look for new ways to achieve diverse student bodies. The courts conservative majority e ectively overturned cases reaching back 45 years in invalidating admissions plans at Harvard and the University of North Carolina, the nations oldest private and public colleges, respectively. The decision, like last years momentous abortion ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade, marked the realization of a long-sought conservative legal goal, this time “ nding that race-conscious admissions plans violate the Constitution and a law that applies to colleges that receive federal funding, as almost all do. Those schools will be forced to reshape their admissions practices, especially top schools that are more likely to consider the race of applicants.

In 1971, a Soviet space mission ended in tragedy when three cosmonauts aboard Soyuz 11 were found dead of asphyxiation inside their capsule after it had returned to Earth. In 1985, 39 American hostages from a hijacked TWA jetliner were freed in Beirut after being held 17 days. In 1986, the Supreme Court, in Bowers v. Hardwick, ruled 5-4 that states could outlaw homosexual acts between consenting adults (however, the nations highest court effectively reversed this decision in 2003 in Lawrence v. Texas). In 1994, the U.S. Figure Skating Association stripped Tonya Harding of the national championship and banned her for life for her role in the attack on rival Nancy Kerrigan. In 2009, American soldier Pfc. Bowe R. Bergdahl went missing from his base in eastern Afghanistan, and was later confirmed to have been captured by insurgents after walking away from his post. (Bergdahl was released on May 31, 2014 in exchange for five Taliban detainees; he pleaded guilty to desertion and misbehavior before the enemy, but was spared a prison sentence by a military judge.) In 2016, saying it was the right thing to do, Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced that transgender people would be allowed to serve openly in the U.S. military, ending one of the last bans on service in the armed forces. In 2020, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves signed a landmark bill retiring the last state flag bearing the Confederate battle emblem.

PAGE 4A FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comheight of the COVID-19 pandemic, they struggled when the agencys need for help was peaking. We furloughed all of our volunteers at the onset of COVID,Ž she said. We learned to appreciate them a lot more because our sta, I believe, at the time, of 55, had to take over the work that the volunteers typically did, in addition to doing their work.Ž When restrictions were lifted, stang levels returned to normal. I think that isolation and not being able to do much for that period of time really inspired people to want to come back,Ž Barkley said. And it felt good to help other people and interact with the community.Ž A NEW APPROACH Not every organization has bounced back so quickly. The pandemic hit the volunteer pool in Manatee County hard enough that the county is rethinking the way it recruits and manages its volunteers. Its been an ongoing discussion for the past few weeks, and were progressing on how we want to move forward,Ž said Justin Intorcia, a talent acquisition specialist for the county. Intorcia says data show Baby Boomers make up the bulk of volunteers. And, you know, the pandemic did hit that subset pretty hard,Ž he said. So its about getting them back into the organization and doing it in a way where they feel like theyre validated and that they know that what theyre doing is going to make a dierence.Ž The county uses volunteers in a variety of departments, including animal services, libraries and parks. Intorcia says the participation levels have still not recovered from the pandemic. I would say its still a work in progress,Ž he said. Still, its nowhere near as bad as it was back in 2021.Ž Intorcia says he is almost ready to present a proposal to the county administrator, adding that implementing an application process is part of the countys plan. If you are interested in volunteering and you have the desire, we will do our best to “nd you a spot where you can put what youd like to do to good use,Ž he said. It is like recruiting. You do have to recruit for volunteers, and theyre a big part of the organization in the sense where they can make a dierence, just like we do as far as paid employees.Ž He also says Manatee County has also been approved as an ocial certifying organization for the Presidents Volunteer Services Award, that recognizes individuals and groups who have demonstrated a sustained commitment to volunteer service. Once the county approves the new programs, we can begin to start awarding volunteers for their service to the community,Ž he said. The award was established in 2003 by President George W. Bush. It is the highest volunteer recognition in the country. Back at All Faiths, volunteers „ most of them Baby Boomers „ say attitudes on volunteering were ingrained early on. Volunteering is just something I kind of grew up with, came from my parents, came from the people that I hung around with in school,Ž said John Reichner. Building a sense of community is pretty important, and particularly as fractured as we are now, trying to “nd something that somehow doesnt involve hyper-partisanship, he said. And at the same time, frankly, people need our help.Ž Wendi Folgleson says the personal satisfaction she gets from volunteering keeps her coming back. A lot of what we do is very assembly line-oriented at this location, which is somewhat mindless, but it doesnt matter. I walk out of here after every single shift I work feeling like Im on cloud nine.Ž THE DATA Every two years, AmeriCorps conducts a survey about volunteerism and other forms of civic engagement in the United States in partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau. According to the research, between 2020 and 2021 during the global COVID-19 pandemic, nearly 51 percent of Americans, or 124.7 million people, informally helped friends, neighbors, or community members at least once a month. Additionally. more than 23 percent of Americans, or 60.7 million people, formally volunteered, giving more than 4.1 billion hours of service with an estimated economic value of $122.9 billion. Florida Highlights € 2,835,717 formal volunteers contributed 178.1 million hours of service through organizations worth an estimated $4.9 billion. € 15.9% of residents formally volunteered through organizations. € 93.2% of residents talked to or spent time with friends or family. € 44.6% of residents informally helped others by exchanging favors with their neighbors. € 64.2% of residents had a conversation or spent time with their neighbors. € 17.8% of residents belonged to an organization. € 36.8% of residents donated $25 or more to charity.

Prosecutors say he was a caregiver because he was the school resource ocer assigned speci“cally to protect the students of the Parkland high school. When he arrived at the 1200 building, the scene of the shooting, Peterson was armed and standing 10 feet from the east entrance. Cruz, the gunman, was 70 yards away, inside the building approaching the west entrance, where an unarmed man determined to confront him raced into the building. Cruz shot that man, football coach Aaron Feis, who fell dead on the spot. The shots that killed Feis were the “rst that Peterson heard, and according to his lawyer, they he could not tell whether those shots came from inside the building or outside. Peterson, armed but not wearing a bulletproof vest, ran from the 1200 building and took cover nearby, reporting shots “red and calling a code red for the Parkland campus. Prosecutors say if Peterson had run into the building, he would have seen the chaos on the “rst ”oor and been in a better position to “nd and confront, engage or distract the shooter. Peterson has also been named in numerous lawsuits “led by the families of the victims and chastised publicly by everyone from former Broward Sheri Scott Israel to former President Donald Trump, who all labeled him a coward who failed to do his job. But Peterson has said, in interviews and through his attorney, that he took cover because the shots could have been coming from outside the 1200 building. The sound of gun“re echoing o nearby buildings created confusion among other responding ocers and witnesses, some of whom appeared to believe the shots came from as far away as the football “eld on the other side of the campus. The child neglect charges allege that Peterson allowed harm to come to the teachers and children on the third ”oor of the building. By the time Peterson arrived outside the 1200 building, the damage on the “rst ”oor was done, so no charges are associated with the deaths or injuries that took place there. No one was killed or injured on the second ”oor. Family members of some of the victims have attended parts of the trial, characterizing it as a referendum on accountability. Last year, the gunman was sentenced to life in prison after If convicted, Peterson would face the possibility of decades in prison, though such a sentence is unlikely for someone who spent 32 unblemished years as a law enforcement ocer with no prior criminal record. He would, in all likelihood, lose his pension. Deliberations began late Monday and ran through Tuesday before resuming Wednesday morning.DEPUTYFROM PAGE 1A PHOTO BY JIM DELA/COMMUNITY NEWS COLLABORATIVEVolunteers at All Faiths Food Bank prepare boxes for distribution at the organizations headquarters in Sarasota.

The S&P 500 rose 19.58 points, or 0.4%, to 4,396.44 and is on track for its sixth winning week in the last seven. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 269.76, or 0.8%, to 34,122.42, while the Nasdaq composite edged down by 0.42, or less than 0.1%, to 13,591.33. Yields jumped in the bond market after data showed the U.S. economy grew at a 2% annual rate in the “rst three months of the year, much stronger than the 1.3% rate earlier estimated. Another report said fewer workers applied for unemployment bene“ts last week than expected, a sign that the job market remains remarkably solid despite much higher interest rates meant to slow the overall economy. The US economy is currently displaying genuine signs of resilience,Ž said Gregory Daco, chief economist at EY. This is leading many to rightly question whether the long-forecast recession is truly inevitable.Ž The Fed has pulled rates higher at a blistering pace since early last year. High rates slow in”ation by dragging on the entire economy, and they have already hurt the manufacturing and other industries while helping to cause three high-pro“le failures in the banking system.Stocks rise, bond yields jump in signs of resilient economy (855)516-1838*Includesproductandlabor;bathtub,showerorwalk-intubandwallsurround.Thispromotioncannotbecombinedwithanyotheroffer.Otherrestrict ionsmayapply.Thisofferexpires6/30/23.Eachdealershipisindependentlyownedand operated.**Thirdparty“nancingisavailableforthosecustomerswhoqualify.Seeyourdealerfordetails.©2023BCIAcrylic,Inc. € Tub-to-ShowerConversions € ReplacementTubs € ReplacementShowers € Walk-inTubs € Low-BarrierShowers € SoakerTubs € Accessoriesandmore!CALLNOW !

www.yoursun.com | The Daily Sun FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 PAGE 7Aindividuals identity is not challenges bested, skills built, or lessons learned but the color of their skin. Our constitutional history does not tolerate that choice.Ž From the White House, President Joe Biden said he strongly, stronglyŽ disagreed with the courts ruling and urged colleges to seek other routes to diversity rather than let the ruling be the last word.Ž Besides the conservative-liberal split, the “ght over armative action showed the deep gulf between the three justices of color, each of whom wrote separately and vividly about race in America and where the decision might lead. Justice Clarence Thomas „ the nations second Black justice, who had long called for an end to armative action „ wrote that the decision sees the universities admissions policies for what they are: rudderless, race-based preferences designed to ensure a particular racial mix in their entering classes.Ž Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the courts “rst Latina, wrote in dissent that the decision rolls back decades of precedent and momentous progress.Ž Both Thomas and Sotomayor, the two justices who have acknowledged armative action played a role in their admissions to college and law school, took the unusual step of reading summaries of their opinions aloud in the courtroom. In a separate dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson „ the courts “rst Black female justice „ called the decision truly a tragedy for us all.Ž Jackson, who sat out the Harvard case because she had been a member of an advisory governing board, wrote, With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness, today, the majority pulls the ripcord and announces colorblindness for all by legal “at. But deeming race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life.Ž The vote was 6-3 in the North Carolina case and 6-2 in the Harvard case. Justice Elena Kagan was the other dissenter. Biden, who quickly stepped before cameras at the White House, said of the nations colleges: They should not abandon their commitment to ensure student bodies of diverse backgrounds and experience that re”ect all of America,Ž He said colleges should evaluate adversity overcomeŽ by candidates.COURTFROM PAGE 1AAs of early June, the school has had a few hundred applicants, which is typical,Ž she said. But parents have not indicated whether the vouchers are the reason why they have applied, she said. While lower-income families get top priority, the vouchers are available to families of four earning up to $111,000. Prior to HB1, the Family Empowerment Scholarship was available for low-income students. That scholarship cost the state approximately $1.5 billion a year, while the new law is expected to cost Florida taxpayers $4 billion, according to the University of South Florida, which cites research “ndings on its WUSF website. THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE Venice Christian School Principal Jerry Frimmel said he s seen an increase in interest related to the states expansion of its voucher program to private schools. Its simply a matter of giving parents the right to choose where their kids go to school,Ž he said. Its a beautiful thing.Ž But for parents looking to get their children enrolled, the school is full, with a waiting list of about 100 students, he said. The school oers classes from prekindergarten through high school. It added a fourth-grade class for the coming year and is embarking soon on a $4 million expansion, he said. State scholarship vouchers will be worth about $8,000 per student, Frimmel said. That amount will cover 85%-90% of high school tuition, he said, and prob ably 100% for students in kindergarten through third grade. Id say were middle of the pack as far as private Christian schools,Ž he said. Tuition at one Christian school in Sarasota is about $15,000 a year, he said. VCS has been accepting other scholarships available to students in private schools and has a scholarship program of its own. We want to help all as best we can,Ž he said. State money will free up VCS funds to help students in other ways, he said, such as paying for new technology, student services and science, technology, engi neering, arts and math classes. SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE, TOO Charlotte Preparatory School on Orlando Boulevard is a non-religious private school for grades pre-K to eighth. There is Montessori curriculum through the third grade. The schools website shows the registration fee is $700, and tuition varies by grade levels: $8,175 for pre-K; $8,750 grades K-3, and $8,950 for grades 4-8 if tuition is paid in full. There are payment plans, which add $200 more. However, the vouchers would make the school aordable for more students. On its website, Charlotte Prep advises parents to go to stepupforstudents.org to learn about scholarships they can apply for if they want to send their child to the school. Prior to the new law, parents depended on Step Up scholarships to help fund private school tuition. Step Up is funded through private donations and gives donors a 100% tax credit for their contribution. While scholarships make private schools affordable for some, others will be able to bypass scholarship applications from other sources. Principal Almibar Cruz, of the Seventh Day Adventist School in Port Charlotte, said he was unaware of the new legislation. Students who cant aord tuition, which is around $8,000 a year, receive help from the church, he said. PUBLIC SCHOOLS BRACING Opponents of the bill fear that much of the funding for vouchers will be cut from Floridas already under-resourced public school system. HB1 will siphon billions away from schools where nearly 90% of Floridas students learn and grow,Ž Florida Education Association President Andrew Spar said in a statement. The law would leave children with fewer resources in already underfunded classrooms and there will be fewer teachers and sta to meet their needs,Ž he said. Spar also predicted the new law will degrade Floridas public schools performance. Florida already ranks 44th in the nation for spending per student in our neighborhood public schools.Ž He said by siphoning funding from the public school system, the shortage of teachers and sta „ including bus drivers, paraprofessionals, nurses and mental health counselors „ will only be made worse. But private school administrators favor the voucher program. We hope that in every school, parents will be able to bene“t from this program, especially those in need,Ž Belmonte said. With no restrictions on eligibility, next year every family in every school could potentially bene“t from the program.ŽSCHOOLSFROM PAGE 1A MORE INFORMATIONThe Florida Tax Credit Scholarship and the Family Empowerment Scholarship programs are the largest private school scholarship programs of their kind in the United States.

PAGE 8A FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comNEW YORK (AP) „ Three Florida men were charged Thursday with making more than $22 million through illegal insider trading before the public announcement that an acquisition “rm was going to take former President Donald Trumps media company public. The charges were outlined in an indictment unsealed in New York that did not in any way implicate Trump or Trump Media & Technology Group, which owns his Truth Social platform. The charges make it less likely that Trump Media will be able to pocket the $1.3 billion promised upon completion of a merger with the acquisition “rm. The merger is pending the approval of securities regulators. According to the indictment, the men were invited to invest in the special purpose acquisition company, Digital World Acquisition Corp., and were provided con“dential information that a potential target of DWAC and another acquisition company, Benessere Capital Acquisition Corp., was Trump Media. Authorities said the defendants bought millions of dollars of DWAC securities on the open market before news of the Trump Media business was made public. After the public announcement, the men dumped their securities for a signi“cant pro“t, according to the court papers. The indictment said one of the defendants tipped o a neighbor to buy stock in DWAC, calling it a good betŽ without saying how he knew. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams warned that insider trading is not easy money,Ž calling it Žcheating.Ž Its a bad bet,Ž Williams said in a release. Because my Oce, the Southern District of New York, is watching. And were working quickly to investigate and prosecute anyone who corrupts our “nancial markets. And well keep at it as long as it takes. You can bet on that.Ž The arrested men were identi“ed as Michael Shvartsman, 52, of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida; his brother Gerald Shvartsman, 45, of Aventura, Florida; and Bruce Garelick, 53, of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. All three made initial court appearances Thursday afternoon in Miami and were freed on bonds. Two lawyers representing the Shv artsman brothers, Grant Smith and Robert Buschel, declined to comment. Garelicks lawyer, Michael Hursey, also declined to comment. Michael Shvartsman owned Rocket One Capital LLC, a venture capital “rm. Garelick was Rocket Ones chief investment ocer, according to court papers. According to the indictment, Garelick was given a seat on DWACs board of directors and had access to con“dential information. It said he then shared that information with his co-conspirators. The indictment said that between June 2021 and November 2021, the men shared the secrets with their friends and employees, who also bought tens of thousands of units of securities ahead of the merger announcement with Trump Media & Technology Group. Typically, a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, is formed with the intent to merge with a private company. In early 2021, representatives of Trump Media, including Trump, began communicating with principles of Benessere about potentially merging to take Trump Media public, the indictment said. Between March and June 2021, Trump Media and Benessere entered into nonbinding letters of intent to merge, it said. The letters required con“dentiality but did allow Benessere and its agents to share con“dential information with investors in the special purpose acquisition companies, the indictment said. Jay Ritter, a University of Florida expert on stock markets who has followed Trumps media venture, said the new charges make it unlikely securities regulators will approve the merger. Ritter added, though, that Trumps company may be able to “nd alternative partners to help fund it. Trump Medias likelihood of being a pro“table company is fairly good. This is not some pie-inthe-sky electric vehicle startup that needs to burn through millions of dollars and not come up with anything,Ž he said. Some other company will come through and invest.Ž The $1.3 billion that Trump Media would miss out on if the merger doesnt go through could have been used to pay salaries and oce rent and expand its operation. As for DWAC, securities rules would require it to liquidate if the deal isnt completed.3 charged in insider trading case related to taking Trump media firm public, accused of making $22M AP PHOTO/MARTA LAVANDIERMichael Shvartsman, right, and his brother Gerald, center, leave the federal courthouse with their attorney, after posting bond, Thursday in Miami.

The charges do not implicate Trump or the Trump Media & Technology Group.(AP) „ Days after a federal judge temporarily blocked a new Florida law targeting drag sh ows, the state has appealed that decision. The Florida agency that regulates businesses asked the judge who ruled against it last week to allow the laws enforcement while its appeal is pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. The request was made Wednesday in federal court in Orlando. U.S. District Judge Gregory Presnell last week granted a preliminary injunction „ stopping the law from being enforced until a trial is held to determine its constitutionality „ and he denied the state agencys request to dismiss it. Attorneys for the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation asked that the injunction only apply to the business that challenged the law, saying that the judges injunction sweeps beyond Plainti to nonparties who may wish to expose children to live obscene performances in violation of the statute.Ž The complaint was brought by the owner of a Hamburger Marys restaurant and bar in Orlando, which regularly hosts drag sh ows, including family-friendly performances on Sundays that children were invited to attend. The restaurant owner said the law was overbroad, was written vaguely and violated First Amendment rights by chilling speech. The new law, championed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, punished venues for allowing children into adult live performances.Ž Though it did not mention drag shows speci“cally, the sponsor of the legislation said it was aimed at those performances.

The Braves enter Friday nights series opener against the Miami Marlins with 55 home runs this month, one shy of the franchise record for a month set in June 2019. The power surge is no ”uke. Atlanta has improved its homer total each month this season and its lineup boasts seven players with at least 13 homers. I just ask God to keep this team healthy so we can keep executing and have the results weve been seeing,Ž Acuña said through a translator. The Braves arent a collection of free swingers. They lead the majors with 147 homers but also have decreased their strikeout total each month, providing the foundation for the NLs best record (53-27). Were a better hitting team now, with the power,Ž manager Brian Snitker said. I think were maturing as a team and still keeping the power. Just really good at-bats. Like I say, I love the fact were not striking out as much.Ž Olson leads the NL with 26 homers and 62 RBIs. Acuña, who hit two homers in the “rst two innings of Tuesday nights 6-2 win over Minnesota, is hitting .331. He is building a formidable MVP case with 19 homers, 51 RBIs and 36 steals. Acuña has set the pace for the Braves improved plate discipline by hitting .347 this month with eight homers, 13 steals, 11 walks and only 13 strikeouts. I just think hes getting more experienced and con“dence, the whole thing,Ž Snitker said. It just kind of translates to better production, especially when you have a skill set like that. Hes just really kind of slowing his at-bats down a lot, I think. He looks really good, really good. Hes taking his walks. The whole thing has just been really impressive.Ž Acuña, now fully recovered from a season-ending right knee injury on July 10, 2021, has regained the form he showed when he hit 41 homers with 37 steals in 2019. He had to watch as the Braves won the 2021 World Series but now is a leading reason the team could contend for its second title in three years. By JACK THOMPSONASSOCIATED PRESSPHOENIX „ Luke Raley homered in the “rst inning, Wander Franco and Josh Lowe drove in two runs each in a “ve-run third and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-1 Thursday. Tampa Bay won two of three in a series between the 1998 expansion teams. The Rays lead the major leagues at 56-28, while Arizona tops the NL West at 48-34. Diamondbacks right “elder Corbin Carroll left after four innings with soreness in his right shoulder, which underwent surgery two years ago. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said Carroll is day to day. Carroll felt discomfort when he struck out ending the third inning, then was replaced after the fourth. It was a really weird feeling that I hadnt felt since the injury,Ž Carroll said. It shook me up pretty good. They checked it out and I got the green light there, which is a huge weight o my shoulders.Ž Tampa Bay won back-to-back games for the “rst time since three straight from June 14-16. The Rays beat Arizona 3-2 Wednesday behind a three-run ninth. It felt like that momentum from last night carried over into todays early ballgame,Ž Rays manager Kevin Cash said. Yonny Chirinos (4-3) allowed one run and seven hits over six-plus innings of relief that followed opener Zack Littell. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit his 12th homer of the season leading o the seventh. Chirinos rebounded from his previous outing, a start at Kansas City on Saturday in which he gave up nine hits and a career-worst eight runs in 5 1/3 innings. We cant always have good games,Ž Chirinos said through a translator. Brandon Pfaadt (0-3) allowed six runs and seven hits in two-plus innings, raising his ERA to 9.82. He was recalled from Triple-A to make his sixth start. Raley put the Rays ahead in the “rst with his 13th homer. He also singled and was hit by a pitch. Franco hit a two-run triple in the third and scored on Harold Ramírezs single for a 4-0 lead. Isaac Paredes walked and Lowe chased Pfaadt with a two-run single.Rays beat Diamondbacks to take first series of trip AP PHOTO/ROSS D.

ENCINATAMPA BAY TIMESThe Lightnings brass arrived in Nashville this week with just three picks „ none before the sixth round „ in this years draft, but they set their eyes on making a bigger splash along Lower Broadway. General manager Julien BriseBois told amateur scouting director Al Murray to be ready for anything,Ž and Murrays sta had targets ready at every turn. BriseBois on Wednesday moved up to No. 37 overall, the “fth pick in the second round, by trading forward Ross Colton to Colorado. Thursday, Tampa Bay traded into the fourth round, reacquiring the pick it sent to Nashville as part of the Tanner Jeannot trade in February for the 2024 fourth-rounder it received from Chicago in the 2022 Brandon Hagel acquisition. The Lightning used their “rst pick to select a player who appears to “t their BoltŽ mentality, right wing Ethan Gauthier. The 18-year-old recently completed his second season with the Sherbrooke Phoenix of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. With their fourth-round pick, they took Jayson Shaugabay, the top high school hockey player in the countrys biggest hockey state, Minnesota. The Lightning parted ways with pending unrestricted free agent Corey Perry, sending his rights to the Blackhawks for a seventh-round pick in next years draft. Chicago has exclusive negotiating rights with Perry, who picked up 31 of his 417 career goals and 65 of his 833 points during his two seasons in Tampa Bay, until free agency opens Saturday at noon. Gauthier entered Bridgestone Arena for the drafts second day admittedly disappointed that he wasnt taken in Wednesdays “rst round. But when he glanced at the board to see which teams had the “rst few picks in the second, one stood out.Lightning draft Gauthier, trade Perrys rights for pick TAMPA BAY TIMES/DIRK SHADDThe Lightning ocially parted ways with pending unrestricted free agent Corey Perry on Thursday, trading his rights to the Blackhawks for a seventh-round pick in 2024.SEE LIGHTNING , 10A SEE BRAVES , 10A SEE RAYS , 11A Nomedicalrecords,NOPROBLEM.Visitusatwww.CMMDR.com $150 .

PAGE 10A FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comI told my brother right before the day started that would be the best thing that could happen to me (Thursday), being drafted by Tampa,Ž Gauthier said. Theyre exactly the identity of the team that I kind of wanted to join, a team that plays with grit, intensity, compete level, energy, and obviously has some skills out there.Ž Those are some of the same traits the Lightning seek when drafting players, no matter the round. Gauthier showed tremendous oensive skill last season with Sherbrooke, amassing 30 goals and 69 points in 62 games and winning the 2022-23 Mike Bossy Trophy (awarded to the QMJHLs top prospect for the upcoming NHL Draft). Despite size (5-11-1/2, 183 pounds) that might scare o some teams, the Lightning view him as a complete two-way player. We had him as a “rst-round-valued player,Ž Murray said. And hes a Bolt all day long. He has a lot of hockey sense, compete and skill, so it brings the whole package. Hes not the biggest guy physically, but nobody told him that, because he plays pretty physical. So, he brings all the attributes.Ž Gauthier was the top pick in the 2021 QMJHL entry draft, so his oensive skill is well known. But he also showed the ability to play physically and work hard defensively. Murray said he is ”exible enough to play any of the three forward spots along all four lines. Hes the kind of guy who gives himself 12 chances to make a forward group,Ž Murray said. Shaugabay, 18, was this years Minnesota Mr. Hockey, an accolade that goes to the states top high school player. Its just a really exciting feeling, a feeling Ill never forget, and also a feeling thats a huge dream of yours when youre a kid,Ž Shaugabay said in a phone interview. So, to “nally experience that is pretty special. I didnt really know where I was going to go, but Im very excited for where I did go.Ž Shaugabay had 33 goals and 96 points in 32 games as a senior at Warroad High School. His 304 points during his fouryear career passed the school scoring record set by his cousin, current NHLer T.J. Oshie. He just obliterated their scoring stats for career and for season,Ž Murray said. Hes an elite oensive player. Hes got hockey sense and skill. And like a lot of young players, hes going to take some time to get bigger, stronger, faster. So, a number of years ahead, no need to rush him. But he brings the skill level that were looking for in players.Ž Shaugabay will play full-time for USHL Green Bay this season „ he skated part-time for the Gamblers the past two seasons „ before advancing to college hockey. He is committed to Minnesota-Duluth. The Lightning selected defenseman Warren Clark in the sixth round. Clark had six goals and 32 assists in 55 games with the Steinbach Pistons of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League last season. He will play at St. Cloud State, which produced Lightning defenseman Nick Perbix. Murray said Clark has similar attributes with his size (6-foot-3, 185 pounds), smooth skating and poise with the puck in his end. With the “rst of their two seventh-round picks, the Lightning chose center Jack Harvey from the USHLs Chicago Steel. Harvey, 20, had 40 goals and 34 assists in 62 games last season. Listed at 5-feet-10, 176 pounds, he was passed over in the previous two drafts. Murray said the Lightning like Harveys skill, and he has improved his competitiveness as he prepares to play at Boston University. The Lightning took defensive-minded center Ethan Hay of the Ontario Hockey Leagues Flint Firebirds with their “nal pick. Hay, 6-feet-1, 190 pounds, had 17 goals and 11 assists in 64 games this past season. Murray said the 18-year-old can play all three forward spots, is strong in the faceo circle and has biteŽ that shows a strong checking game.LIGHTNINGFROM PAGE 9ARonald is so special,Ž said third baseman Austin Riley. Its a treat to come to the yard and watch him play every day, not only oensively but defensively. I think hes great out there. You catch yourself on the edge of your seat every time hes at the plate. To see him “nally 100% healthy after the knee injury, its awesome.Ž Braves Hall of Famer Chipper Jones says Acuña, 25, is the most talented player in the history of a franchise that also includes Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews, two-time MVP Dale Murphy and 10-time Gold Glove winner Andruw Jones. I believe the young man is the most talented player to ever don a Braves uniform,Ž Jones said recently of Acuña. He may not be the best player yet, but he is the most talented.Ž Acuña received the most votes among NL players for the July 11 All-Star Game in Seattle. He has a chance to become the “rst player to hit 20 homers, drive in 50 runs and steal 40 bases before the AllStar break. He also has a chance for the 40-homer, 40-steals season he narrowly missed in 2019. Hes on pace to join Eric Davis (1987) and Barry Bonds (1990) as the only players with at least 30 homers and 50 steals in a season. My hope is I can stay healthy the rest of the season and hopefully break some records,Ž Acuña said.BRAVESFROM PAGE 9A AP PHOTO/JOHN BAZEMOREAtlanta Braves Ronald Acuna Jr., left, and Marcell Ozuna, right, celebrate after defeating the Minnesota Twins on Monday in Atlanta.

MLB By STEVE MEGARGEEAP SPORTS WRITERThe AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians have been below .500 since late April. The Cincinnati Reds top the NL Central standings while on an 86-win pace. Welcome to life in baseballs two weakest divisions, where even the best teams struggle to win more games than they lose. Cleveland (39-40) overtook the Minnesota Twins (40-42) in the AL Central standings on Wednesday, but the Guardians would be dead last if they played in the AL East. This is the “rst time in 15 years that an entire division has been below .500 this late in a season. You know, Ive been in a lot of dierent scenarios,Ž said Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch, whose team is 34-45 but only “ve games o the AL Central lead. This is a little bit unique to the Central right now. But a lot of baseball left to play for a lot of teams, but certainly weird.Ž Its not much better in the NL Central, though Cincinnati (43-38) has come on strong lately thanks to an exciting rookie class headed by sensational shortstop Elly De La Cruz. The Reds were in last place just over a month ago but now lead the division by a half-game over the Milwaukee Brewers (42-38) after winning 14 of their last 17. These arent new struggles either „ neither Central division has produced a pennant winner since the Chicago Cubs beat Cleveland in the 2016 World Series. The way Central division clubs have managed their budgets, its no surprise theyve lagged behind their East and West counterparts. No team from either group ranked among the top 12 major league payrolls on opening day this season, but “ve of them fell in the bottom 10 „ Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Kansas City and Milwaukee. No Central team has cracked the top 5 since the Cubs during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. Six of baseballs 10 smallest markets come from the Centrals, according to Nielsen, and only Chicago cracks the top 10. Not that small-market clubs cant spend big „ San Diegos TV market is comparable to Kansas City, yet the Padres ranked third among opening day payrolls as they try to keep pace with the Los Angeles Dodgers.The AL and NL Centrals are lagging againBoth divisions have small markets and small payrolls AP PHOTO/SUE OGROCKICleveland Guardians Josh Bell grimaces after striking out June 6 during a game against the Boston Red Sox in Cleveland. GOLF: ROCKET MORTGAGE By LARRY LAGEAP SPORTS WRITERDETROIT „ Peter Kuest believes theres always time to go “shing. Just not this week. Hes a little busy. Kuest, a Monday quali“er ranked 789th in the world, and Taylor Moore shot 8-under 64s to share the “rst-round lead in the Rocket Mortgage Classic on Thursday. What would the 25-year-old Kuest be doing if he didnt earn a spot in the “eld? Probably “shing back in Utah,Ž he said. The former BYU player, who turned pro in 2020, is playing in his 10th career PGA Tour event and for the third time this season as a quali“er. Kuest has limited status on the Korn Ferry Tour, where he hasnt played this year while he bets on himself that he can compete with the worlds best. Between missing the cut at the Texas Open in April and “nishing tied for 57th at the Canadian Open earlier this month, he closed with a 63 at the Byron Nelson in May to tie for 14th. It solidi“es that I can play out here,Ž Kuest said. The 29-year-old Moore, who has an 18-hole lead for the “rst time on the PGA Tour, made eight birdies in his bogey-free round. He won the Valspar Championship in March, outlasting Jordan Spieth. Moore missed the cut in his last three tournaments after “nishing tied for 72nd at the PGA Championship.Moore, Kuest share lead

PAGE 12A FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.com CYCLING By DAVE SKRETTAAP SPORTS WRITERThe goal for Neilson Powless at the Tour de France starting Saturday is simple: win a stage. Hes certainly capable. So are the other “ve Americans in the “eld, and collectively they represent perhaps the strongest contingent of U.S. riders in cyclings most famous race since the drug-fueled days of Lance Armstrong and Levi Leipheimer. There is Sepp Kuss, the climbing extraordinaire from the Jumbo-Visma squad, who ended a 10-year drought for Americans with a stage win last year and who will try to usher Jonas Vingegaard to backto-back yellow jerseys; Matteo Jorgenson, who featured in several breakaways a year ago and nearly won a stage himself; new U.S. road race champ Quinn Simmons; Kevin Vermaerke, whose own debut last year was waylaid by a broken collarbone; and Lawson Craddock, back for the “rst time since 2018. Then there is Powless, the 26-year-old from Florida and the “rst rider of Native American ancestry to race in the Tour, and who already has won two lower level races this year while performing well in the spring classics. I think the prep that I have done has brought me to the right level of “tness at exactly the right time,Ž said Powless, who will also be charged with protecting EF Education…EasyPosts overall contenders, Richard Carapaz and Rigoberto Urán. If I could win a stage, that would be incredible. That would be my Tour made,Ž Powless said. But if we have Richie or Rigo up in GC and we can get someone on the podium, that would be incredible as well. Im going to have to be pretty ”uid with it, with what my goals are going to be, because depending on what position we are going to be in with the team, it is going to change. If we have someone going for GC, I could have a really satisfying Tour helping to get them on the podium.Ž6 riders from American contingent could help decide Tour de France AP PHOTO/DANIEL COLEJumbo Visma cycling team riders pose Thursday during the team presentation ahead of the Tour de France in Bilbao, Spain.

FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | YOURSUN.COM Local News By FRANK DIFIORESTAFF WRITERNORTH PORT „ A dispute over North Ports city borders will be the subject of oral arguments in the 12th Judicial Circuit on Monday. West Villagers for Responsible Government “led for a review in December about the North Port City Commissions decision to not begin de-annexation discussions. Both WVRG and the city of North Port have submitted written arguments defending the positions. Oral arguments over Zoom are 10 a.m. July 3 before Circuit Court Judge Danielle Brewer. WVRG, representing a collection of homeowners in Wellen Park/West Villages, have repeatedly criticized the leadership of North Port and the circumstances of the citys annexation of what is now Wellen Park in the early 2000s. The group previously “led suit in April 2021 to appeal the City Commissions decision to refuse to consider de-annexation. John Meisel, the groups chairman, said that Florida statute requires the city to allow a public vote among West Villages voters over whether to stay if a petition with 15 percent of registered voters request it. The previous lawsuit found the City Commission did not follow proper procedure and nulli“ed the decision to deny discussion for de-annexation. Commissioners repeated their denial of de-annexation at a November 2022 meeting, citing Florida statutes to go into detail about why and how such a plan would not be feasible.Ž The following month, WVRG “led for a writ of certiorari to By FRANK DIFIORESTAFF WRITERPORT CHARLOTTE „ People are kicking in doors for an online challenge, according to authorities, and its a major risk to both perpetrators and victims. The Charlotte County Sheris Oce issued a news release Thursday warning the door-kicking challenge had made a local appearance. At least two such incidents, with strangers kicking on the doors of local homes, have been reported to Charlotte County deputies. The North Port Police Department has also received at least one report of a similar incident in the Cedar Grove area. The videos, often posted to sites like TikTok, appear to show participants kicking hard on a door as music plays over the background. This typically occurs late at night or in the early morning hours and can result in damage to the door,Ž the CCSO news release states. The subjects then ”ee before the homeowner is able to investigate.Ž The news release was also accompanied by video footage of six suspects in a recent front door kick-in incident. In the video, subjects appear to jump over or go around a vehicle gate on foot. Still images of two of the suspects were also shared in the press release. The Charlotte County Sheris Oce takes this very seriously.

Nicole Ellen OBrien, 43, is facing 12 counts of animal cruelty resulting in serious injury or death and eight counts of abandonment of animals. The arrest comes more than a year after Charlotte County deputies and ocers with Charlotte County Animal Control removed 11 animals from the property for animal welfare concerns, including several dogs, a pig and a horse.

The little fart ended up beating me and was waiting on the dock for his quarters.Ž Hundreds will join Winesett for the July 4 Freedom Swim at 2:20 p.m. on Tuesday. Swimmers are invited to gather for a quick safety and tide report meeting at Live Oak Point, 5100 Tamiami Trail, before the 2:30 p.m. start time. Swimmers can paddle, swim or ”oat to the channel and down the Peace River toward the landing site at Fishermans Village. This year, its held a little later because the tide prediction graph organizers use says the tide is coming all day until 3 p.m. Freedom Swim co-founder Michael Haymans uses tide data to ensure the ”ow of swimmers. Haymans said the biggest challenge is when swimmers dont listen during the safety meeting. Once the tide changes, swimmers can be swept under the bridge and hit barnacles. The tide can be helpful, however, in sending swimmers downstream to Fishermens Village. You are always swimming at your own risk,Ž he said. If people cant swim they should not be out there.Ž While most swimmers start out from the same place, Winesett and friends have a tradition. They meet at Paul Degaetas home for brunch or lunch before the event. Then Winesett gets dropped o by boat with her “ns and pool noodle and navigates the water for an hour and a half. Meanwhile, the Degaeta group ventures each year to Gilchrist Park in Punta Gorda. The “rst swim in 1991 was inspired by Haymans, a Punta Gorda attorney and folk singer, talking with friends Frank Desguin and Sandy MacGibbon, a former city council member, about starting a triathlon. They recalled that swimming the river had been a rite of passage for local youth dating back to the 1940s. Now we do it as a nod and a good time,Ž Haymans said. We always were raising money for nonpro“ts, and we still do, but we wanted to come up with something fun to do.Ž Haymans said the mile-and-ahalf swim takes anywhere from 45 minutes to three hours. The biggest issue is for those who dont swim as well not to try to keep up with the avid swimmers. He said everyone should have a swim buddy or support group. Its long enough and dangerous enough that people get swept o course from time to time,Ž he said. You need to know what the tide is going to do. Im going to swim parallel with the bridge and bobble and take my time. But I know when the tide changes I cant stay next to the bridge or I can get swept to the barnacles.Ž Haymans anticipates about 500 swimmers „ less than in years past.Freedom Swim: a July 4 traditionLater start time this year due to tides Swimmers wait to start in Charlotte Harbor for the annual Freedom Swim in July 2022.

Authorities noted the charges involved for damaging a door in this manner can result in a felony charge. The press release also warned that homeowners and residents may believe the participant is attempting to break into the home, leading them to take actions to defend themselves and their property.Ž North Port Police Public Information Ocer Joshua Taylor echoed those concerns earlier this week, noting many local residents have “rearms for home protection „ particularly if they see masked strangers in dark clothing kicking their door late at night. A lot can go wrong in a situation like that,Ž Taylor said. Charlotte County Sheri Bill Prummell gave his own statement in the CCSO press release, arguing that the door-kicking challenge was one of several online trends that encouraged damage, risk, and danger.Ž I implore parents to have meaningful conversations with their kids to make them think twice about what they may be seeing on social media … before its too late,Ž Prummell stated in the news release.

Deputies identi“ed several dogs that appeared to either be emaciated or have visible skin issues, including one dog that appeared slumped in a camper and thought to have died. The dog was transported for medical treatment and later recovered to the point of being able to move on its own. The adavit also alleged that investigators found a burn pit on the animal shelters property, which contained numerous possible animal bones.Ž Another adavit, “led by an Animal Control ocer, went into further detail about the aictions various animals at All Creatures Safe Haven displayed. One dog, Mika,Ž was recognized by the ocer from previous investigations. According to the report, the dog had open and bleeding woundsŽ on her ears, likely from ”ies leaving eggs to hatch on them. Another dog, a Boston terrier, appeared to bloody raw spotsŽ on her body from chewing herself. The adavit clari“ed that Animal Control returned to the property in May 2022, with a petition for custody of several at-risk animals. Per the report, OBrien agreed to cooperate and surrendered the animals, as well as three additional dogs. The ocer made note of three dogs that were not seized, including a pit bull-mix named Dixie,Ž an unnamed terrier and an unnamed doberman. One week after the visit, Dixie was reported to have been struck by a vehicle and killed on Bermont Road. The terrier was later found by a local resident who con“ned it and contacted Animal Control, while the doberman was listed as missing. OBrien, whose address is listed in Marion County, was brought back to Charlotte County on a warrant and was served that warrant at the Charlotte County Jail. She is being held on $20,000 total bond. Her next court appearance is scheduled for July 31. Email: frank.di“ore@ yoursun.comCRUELTYFROM PAGE 1B appeal the new decision. The group “led for a writ of mandamus on May 25 in a separate case that asks the court to mandate the City Commission consider the contraction ordinance that the petitioners attached to their contraction petition. Both sides said the writ of mandamus is not as immediately concerning, but is simply a procedural step. Were very con“dent that we will prevail for both,Ž Meisel told The Daily Sun on Thursday. The city of North Port has 30 days to “le a written response to the mandamus writ. At that point, WVRG will have 20 days to “le a written reply. Once both parties provide written brie“ngs to the court, the court may make its determination with or without a hearing. As the situation plays out in court, local leaders have been attempting to reach residents inside Wellen Park and out.

PAGE 4B FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 The Daily Sun | www.yoursun.comANOTHER VIEW: ORLANDO SENTINELToo little, too late for two gross injusticesThe price of freedom is pathetically low in Florida, and the cost of injustice is much too high. The going rate is $50,000 for every year people languish in prison before being exonerated for crimes they did not commit. Thats less than $6 an hour, much less than the minimum wage. The necessity for this reality is a deeply ”awed system where wrongful convictions are commonplace. There have been 3,326 exonerations since records have been kept since 1989, including 85 in Florida. How many more are out there? Florida is making amends for its two latest miscarriages of justice, Nos. 84 and 85, (including 13 in Broward, more than any other county). Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation providing $817,000 to Leonard Cure, who served 16 years in prison for a robbery someone else committed in Dania Beach, and whose claim was strongly supported by State Attorney Harold Pryor. Robert DuBoise of Tampa, who lost 37 years of his life, three on death row, for a murder he had nothing to do with, will receive $1.85 million. They did time for crimes they didnt commit, and the real criminals got away. INADEQUATE RELIEF Both men also qualify for 120 hours of free tuition at a Florida college, university or career center. That and the money are well-intentioned, but they hardly make up for years of lost liberty, inability to earn a living and save for retirement, and the anguish of being punished severely for what they knew they hadnt done. If the right people had not helped them they would still be locked up for life. They should have received the standard bene“ts promptly after their exoneration three years ago but were barred by a so-called clean hands provision that denies these bene“ts to people who had either one other violent felony conviction or more than one for a nonviolent crime. It doesnt matter how irrelevant those records might be. A bill eliminating the clean hands rule (SB 382) cleared three House committees and the full Senate without a dissenting vote in this years session but died before the House voted on it. Theres no excuse for that. FINALITY OVER FAIRNESS Neither is there any excuse for a criminal justice system with too few opportunities for people to successfully challenge wrongful convictions. The appeal process is a thicket of procedural hurdles, harsh precedents and dead ends that exalts “nalityŽ over fairness. In the normal course, theres no opportunity to prove that an old conviction, upheld on appeal, was still a miscarriage of justice. Cure and DuBoise owe their freedom to the nonpro“t Innocence Project and to conviction review units established by former Broward State Attorney Mike Satz and former State Attorney Andrew Warren in Hillsborough. Their purpose is to reopen doors of justice that have slammed shut. Only four other circuits have similar programs. All 20 should have them, and there should be one with statewide jurisdiction, too. Nothing other than apparent disinterest prevents Attorney General Ashley Moody and 14 other state attorneys from implementing review programs. If they dont, the Legislature should demand it. Like many other exonerees, Cure and DuBoise had prior criminal records that drew law enforcements attention. Cures picture was in the sheris “les, and a witness picked him because she said the robber of a Walgreens was a well-dressed Black man. A picture of Cure “t the bill. Even though no physical evidence linked Cure to the crime, the court allowed that wildly erroneous identi“cation to overcome Cures well-documented alibi that he was at work far away. With a fresh look at what evidence there was and wasnt, the Broward conviction review unit said Cure should not have been convicted. A court agreed. DuBoise was convicted of rape and murder on the basis of a dentists bite-mark testimony disdained as junk scienceŽ and on the perjury of a jailhouse informant. Warren, the ex-prosecutor who created the Hillsborough unit, agreed to DNA testing that exonerated DuBoise and implicated two others who are in prison for other crimes. On the day Warren identi“ed the other men, DeSantis suspended him from oce on ludicrously pre-textual charges. SIGNED INTO LAW The compensation for Cure and DuBoise were two of six claim bills signed into law this month. Eight other claim bills failed without votes, which illustrates another festering Florida problem that must be “xed. Claim bills are a vestige of the ancient rule that the king can do no wrong.Ž Known as sovereign immunity, the law sets a limit of $200,000 for claims against a government agency from any one person or $300,000 if there are multiple claims. Attempts to increase obsolete and arbitrarily low payment caps fail year after year. Those caps and binding even when an agency admits fault and wants to settle „ as the South Broward Hospital District did in the case of Jamiyah Mitchell, a teenager who suered brain injury at birth and has learning disabilities. The family had to hire a paid lobbyist, but the district paid her family $200,000 and will pay another $795,000 under another claim bill DeSantis signed (SB 16). No system is perfect. But the arbitrary, needlessly drawn-out claim bill system should be replaced with a court of claims, like the federal governments, to deliver justice more promptly and fairly. It took four years before the Legislature compensated Jamiyah Mitchells family. She will soon be 15 years old. If you want to play, you should payE:Lets see if I understand this. A billionaire decides to join a deep sea ocean adventure and pays $250,000 for the trip. But, the submersible is lost at sea. A massive search eort is launched using our Coast Guard and other rescue vessels, but alas, they “nd only wreckage. At this point we discover that, neither the billionaire nor his estate is “nancially responsible in any way for the millions of dollars spent on trying to rescue him from the consequences of his underwater adventure.Ž Apparently a billionaire can plunge into any type of life-threatening experience and if they encounter problems of a dire nature, our tax dollars are spent to bail the adventurer out of his self-made catastrophe. Why? Because, there is a federal law which prohibits billing rescuees for rescue eorts. How about a new law which would not apply to victims of natural catastrophes or tragedies like plane crashes? But, if you can aord the massive costs to participate in a dangerous adventure, then you need to deposit a large sum of your own money into an escrow account, payable to rescue entities. Then, if you need rescuing, you will bear the costs of that. Our hard earned tax money can then be put towards, housing for homeless vets, or providing treatment for those with mental health or addiction issues. In short Mr. Billionaire, if you want to play then, by golly, YOU should pay.

So, why do politicians use the word consensus on everything? They are welcome to their opinion, but not to their made-up facts. The following are examples of this: 51 intelligence agents claim that Hunters laptop was Russian misinformation; man-made climate change is caused by the rise in CO2 (CO2 changes months/years after temperature); President Trump is a Russian agent; Biden has cognizant ability; COVID occurred naturally; etc. All are false consensus of opinions. Fredric Nietzsche statement is applicable to today: Some people dont want the truth, they dont want their elusion destroyed.Ž Those who yield to the temptation and the debauchery of group think are lacking the strength of their convictions. Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.Ž … George Orwell. Did anyone notice that April Fools Day was cancelled this year. No prank on the cancerous bunions on the sole of society can top the reality the left created in todays corrupt government. Their utopia of socialism does not exist, never did exist and never will. Only those endowed with common sense can identify with: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free.Ž John 8:32 If these so-called social warriors shout false information often enough, gullible people will start to believe them. The truth is based on facts, not distorted ConsensusŽ of opinions! T M. C Port Charlotte PUBLISHER Glen Nickerson COMMENTARY EDITOR John Hackworth Viewpoint DUBROVNIK, Croatia „ Twenty-one episodes of the popular HBO series Game of ThronesŽ were “lmed in this city of 16th-century high walls and complicated history. One of them was shot along a section of St. Dominic Street, known as the walk of shame. The very concept of shame seems foreign to us today, like the stockades of the American Puritan era which were designed to humiliate those who violated what were then cultural norms and serve as a warning to others not to tread similar paths. After Rep. Adam Schi (D-CA) was recently censured by the Republican House for promoting the Russia collusion “ction in the 2020 election, Democrats chanted shame, shame, shame.Ž Its nice to know they have some standards besides the double standards they usually display. At the end of the LGBTQIA+ communitys celebration of Pride Month,Ž it might be worthwhile to consider some of the downsides of pride and its opposite „ shame, or humiliation. Once again, de“nitions can be helpful in focusing the mind. Dictionary.com de“nes shame as the painful feeling arising from the consciousness of something dishonorable, improper.Ž Among shames antonyms is humiliate: made to feel a painful loss of pride, self-respect, or dignity, deeply embarrassed or put to shame.Ž The obvious question becomes what happens to a culture that regards fewer things as dishonorable and improper? Put another way, suppose we all get to de“ne what is honorable and proper? Is shameful also individually de“ned, or does it still have a universal application? If left to the individual, can anything then be called improper and dishonorable? Last Friday in New York City during the citys annual Drag March, hundreds of drag performers marched through Manhattans East Village chanting Were here, were queer, were coming for your children.Ž No reporter Ive seen asked them what they meant by coming for your children.Ž No politician appeared to denounce the statement. Before arriving in Dubrovnik, I stayed in a hotel in Rome which had a large rainbow ”ag at the check-in desk and just in case I missed the point, a statement about pride on the wall. That I, and perhaps others, might be oended by this corporate woke-ism and promotion of what Scripture calls an abominationŽ apparently is of no concern to virtually every major corporation. How much more are we willing to tolerate before decadence tightens its grip so strongly that there is no escape, and we are left to the consequences of our own base desires? Other nations that have allowed norms to be violated did not live to see future decades or centuries. What makes America „ or Europe, which has seen many countries and cultures rise and fall „ think we can escape historys judgment? Cersei Lannister is recognized as one of the cruelest villains in Game of Thrones.Ž One summation of her journey down the walk of shame episode says: The queens hair is shaved o, she is exposed before the entire population of Kings Landing, her sins are announced and she, naked, has to walk barefoot through the streets, in front of her subjects, while a fair with a bell screams: shame, shame, shame. In less than a few minutes, the population spat, cursed, and threw feces at the Queen.Ž Perhaps America needs its own walk of shame. If we had one, the trac would likely be pretty heavy, but the results might be the redemption of our corrupt and tainted souls.

Daily Break FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | YOURSUN.COM By RICK SOBEY BOSTON HERALDBOSTON „ Hundreds of great white sharks hunting seals close to shore along Cape Cod, and how local researchers are hoping to predict shark behavior, is the focus of a new National Geographic special for Sharkfest next week. The documentary Return of the White SharkŽ includes really rare footageŽ of three great whites feasting on a seal, and an apex predator attacking a seal in the surf zone. The Cape shark researchers in the show also revealed how many sharks have visited the region in a recent 5-year period, which is much higher than expected. There was never a population estimate for white sharks in the Northwest Atlantic,Ž Atlantic White Shark Conservancy sta scientist Megan Winton said during the special. Its one of the most mysterious populations of white sharks on the planet.Ž COUNTING SHARKS The team of researchers, which includes Winton and Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries marine biologist Greg Skomal, now estimate that 800 to 900 individual sharks have visited the Capes waters in the recent 5-year period. Which is absolutely incredible,Ž Winton said. The count of 800 to 900 sharks makes the Cape one of the largest and potentially densest area for great whites in the world. Its important for the public to know that the sharks are not here all at the same time,Ž Skomal told the Herald on Monday. They trickle in and trickle out. ƒ And some spend more time along the Cape because they have success feeding on seals.Ž In the special, Skomal discusses the recent phenomenon of great white sharks returning to Cape Cod because of the explosion of seals. Viewers get to see him tagging sharks, while learning about the research goals to keep beachgoers safe. There have been a few shark and human interactions along the Cape during the last decade, including a fatal shark bite in 2018. We realized that it was important to start thinking about public safety,Ž Skomal said in the documentary. We started really looking intensively at the predatory behavior of the white shark.Ž The scientists are studying where sharks are hunting for seals, how theyre hunting, and how that relates to the environment. The researchers want to “nd patterns that will lead to predictive behavior, like a weather report for shark activity. We want to “gure out when, where, and how do white sharks naturally attack and kill their prey, the seals,Ž Skomal said. If we “nd patterns in behavior, then we have an ability to predict or forecast where these animals are likely to be relative to human activities.Ž RARE FOOTAGE Some of the fascinating video during the special included a shark attacking a seal in the surf zone, and then the three sharks feeding together. Im honestly completely ”oored by it,Ž Winton said. Theres no “ghting. They werent getting into it with each other, which is really surprising. Weve never seen this kind of behavior before on Cape Cod.Ž When researchers see a shark eating a seal, its generally only one shark and other great whites arent in the area at all. This was really rare footage,Ž Skomal said. This was really interesting behavior with the three sharks, taking turns on the carcass. Its pretty riveting stu.Ž Nat Geos Sharkfest has done a great job showcasing the local research, said Skomal who added that he was excited to work on the show. It gives people a real look at how these animals behave and where this happens,Ž Skomal said. It does happen very close to shore, and people need to be cognizant of that.Ž The documentarys release also coincides with the publication of Skomals book, Chasing Shadows .Ž Return of the White SharkŽ premieres on July 3 during Nat Geos Sharkfest .

This may not come as a shock. To many of you, that name means nothing. For thousands, Gil Thorp is but a crew cut memory, a relic of our bygone youth. And he remains a daily part of many lives, a comic strip character who appears in dozens of newspapers across the country, the coach at “ctional Milford High School. Gil Thorp means a great deal to a 34-year-old Latinx writer named Henry Barajas, who is the latest in a relatively short line of people who have, in words, given life to Thorp since he “rst leaped from the mind and pen of creator Jack Berrill in 1958, the writer and illustrator who gave his character a name that combined those of baseball player Gil Hodges and Olympic athlete Jim Thorpe, dropping the e.Ž I was asked to take on writing a year ago and I was thrilled,ŽBarajas told me by telephone from his home in Los Angeles. I like to think of Gil as the Captain America of school hallways, 100% as American as apple pie, a symbol of goodness.Ž As a child, Barajas was an early fan of comics but aspired to be a newspaper reporter, which is what he became at the Arizona Daily Star. But comics called and he has produced acclaimed graphic novels such as La Voz De M.A.Y.O.: Tata RamboŽ and Helm Greycastle.Ž He has worked for Marvel Comics and written a short story for DC Comics titled Batman: Urban Legends.Ž The man who has drawn the Gil ThorpŽ strip since 2008 is 68-year-old Rod Whigham, a seasoned pro who lives near Atlanta and has been an artist and commercial illustrator for Marvel and DC Comics. Among his works are G.I. Joe,Ž Men in BlackŽ and Doc Savage.Ž He has a number of graphic novels and created art for trading cards series. He and Barajas have not met face to face but have communicated via computer and Whigham says, He is a vast improvement over previous writers. He meets his deadline.Ž Barajas is more eusive, saying, Rod is simply the best artist Ive worked with. He is so good. When I have brought up some controversial stories and themes, he is always game to hear me out. We are becoming a real team. If I could only clone him, then he could draw all my ideas.Ž They are both keenly aware of the legacy they manage. The strip was “rmly focused on sports but societal matters began to sneak in as Berrill re”ected the times with such o-the-“eld topics and troubles as teenage pregnancy, divorce, peer pressure, depression, mental ills, drinking problems, sexual harassment, marijuana and on and on. Berrill died of cancer in 1996. The strip was then in the hands of various artists and writers, such as Jerry Jenkins and his son Chad, followed by Neal Rubin. Last July, Barajas took over. Long a sports pages staple here, the strip stopped appearing in the Tribune in 2003 but it still is found in dozens of other papers across the country,Ž says Christina St. Joseph, acquisitions editor at the Tribune Content Agency, which syndicates the strip. Wayne Lown, general manager of TCA, says, Gil Thorp has always tackled the issues of the day head-on, and Henry has done a great job carrying on that tradition but in a new voice.Ž It is important to me to not disappoint current and longtime fans,Ž says Barajas. My goal is to bring the strip into our current age, with all of its complexities. I hope to do Gil justice by engaging regular readers and attracting new ones.Ž Comics fans tend to be ardent and loud. For them, a strip and its characters are like neighbors. Barajas has seen online comments both favorable and not so but, I have a tough skin,Ž he says, adding that he is not reluctant to respond to complaints or criticism. I like to read what people have to say.Ž There have been Gil Thorp collections published in book form over the decades and Barajas and Whigham have been bouncing such an idea around. In the meantime, the serial strip goes on and Thorp will be turning 65.Coach Gil Thorp eligible for senior discounts?As the comic turns 65, a new writer hopes to bring the strip into our current age TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCYHenry Barajas was named the new writer for the venerable Gil ThorpŽ comic strip in July 2022.

Is it the same as having an immune disorder? If a person has an autoimmune disorder, are they considered immunocompromised, or would they have an exceptionally robust immune system? As people age, their immune systems weaken. Would an autoimmune disease become less severe with age? Do allergies become less severe with age? „ J.C. ANSWER: Immune disorders include both immunode“ciencies and autoimmune diseases. An ideal immune system would keep you protected from all infections (bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and others) and would kill any cancers. It would never mistake part of the body for an invader. Unfortunately, as good as our immune systems are, they aren't quite perfect. We sometimes simplify that "immunocompromised" is having too little of an immune system, while people with an autoimmune disease have too much of one, but it's more complicated. Most people with immunode“ciencies have "holes" in their immune system so that they are susceptible to certain germs, but they may be perfectly good at “ghting off others. People with very severe immunode“ciencies, where they are very immunocompromised, may be at risk from practically any pathogen. Sadly, people with severe immunode“ciencies are also at increased risk from many cancers, since cancers are often, and usually, stopped by the immune system. Unfortunately, people with autoimmune diseases are not protected against infections and cancers. Worse yet, treatment for autoimmune diseases, although effective at relieving the symptoms of the autoimmune disease, usually put a person at a higher risk for certain infections and cancers. Allergies, like autoimmune diseases, are immune and in”ammatory responses that are more forceful than optimal. It is often, but not universally true, that they decrease over time. Some autoimmune diseases, such as Type 1 diabetes, are much more likely in young people, while others, like Hashimoto's thyroiditis, are more common in older people. Scientists often “nd it frustrating to see advertisements for products to "strengthen" the immune system. The immune system should be perfectly balanced; too much activity in the immune system is very dangerous, as anyone with lupus or a hundred other autoimmune diseases knows.What it means to be immunocompromised DEAR HELOISE: Your readers need to know about a scam that my husband almost bought into a week ago. A man called and claimed we had not paid for one of our credit card debts since 2016. He was demanding that we pay up now, or they would place a lien against our home and take us to court. The man who called said we owed $8,000. First, I knew I had paid that card off in 2016, so obviously, I knew this was a scam. We have never had more than one credit card each, and we always paid them at the end of the month. It was only used for emergencies, and we usually had very few of those. Apparently, these people think the American public is so stupid that we won't remember whether or not we pay our bills. Everyone needs to be on the lookout for these worthless scammers! „ Rosemary K., Petoskey, Michigan Rosemary, you can report a scam to the Federal Trade Commission, at 1-877-382-4357. You may also report scams to the FBI online at ic3.gov/ home/“le-complaint. Thank you for alerting us to this scam. „ Heloise DEAR HELOISE: We adopted a dog from a local shelter in our city, and we love him so much. We named him "Bruce." He's had his shots, and we had him microchipped. But now, we're arguing about whether or not to have him neutered. My husband is against it, but since we are not breeders, I feel that we should go ahead and get that done. Are animals better off after being neutered? „ Cody T., Orange, California Cody, consider this: Veterinarians usually recommend that a male dog be neutered between six to nine months, with large dogs who are family pets being neutered when they stop growing „ at about 12 to 15 months. A neutered dog potentially has less, if any, prostate problems and testicular cancer. He often has fewer problems with mounting behavior, and while it does not make a dog calmer, a dog is less likely to run away from home in search of a female. So, by all means, have your dog neutered by your veterinarian. „ HeloiseCredit card scammers continue to wreak havoc HINTS FROM HELOISEAdvice Columnist Thursdays Challenger Answers CHALLENGER FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE By Lynn Johnston PICKLES By Brian Crane B.C.

www.yoursun.com | The Daily Sun FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 PAGE 9B DEAR ABBY: I am a 29-year-old housewife with a loving husband, a caring mother and equally supportive in-laws. I'm writing because I feel useless. I don't even have a hobby I'm good at. Although I like to play music, draw and play with cats, I don't think I'm good at any of them, despite others telling me otherwise. My friends and family are better off than I am. My friend is participating in a skating competition, my brother is working toward becoming an electrician, and my husband's “rst cousin is an illustrator whose book recently got published. Because of this, I have developed low self-esteem and argue with those around me. I can't afford college because I have no job. I tried applying for a few only to be turned down. Abby, I haven't accomplished anything special. All I want is to be good at SOMETHING, but I'm afraid it will blow up in my face. I can't accept criticism. I'm at a loss about what to do. I'm ready to give up on everything. Why should I keep trying when I know I will get the same bad results? „ Talentless in Ohio DEAR TALENTLESS: There are many kinds of success beyond the monetary or winning prizes. As an unemployed housewife with time on your hands, why not put some of it to use by volunteering in your community? Many places would be glad to have you. The library, schools, senior centers, veterinarian's of“ces or animal rescues would welcome someone. Please try it. If you do, you may “nd you have talents you're unaware of. An added bene“t will be that the more you do, the higher your level of self-esteem will become. DEAR ABBY: My 12-year-old grandson, "Adam," doesn't talk to me. He converses with other adults, but when I walk into a room and say hi, he pretends he doesn't hear me. He does not answer questions that I ask and will sit on the ”oor rather than at the other end of a large sofa where I am. He lives pretty far away, so I take small gifts when I visit every two to three months. He does come over with a smile when I am handing them out, but he never comments or says thank you. His younger brother and I get along great, so I do not pressure Adam. When I leave, I give him a quick hug and tell him I love him. The phone is useless. He's obviously miserable when my daughter insists he speak with me. I send a short text once a month or so so he knows I care. I don't feel comfortable mentioning this to his parents, as his dad is pretty hard on him. Any suggestions? „ Sad Grammy in Pennsylvania DEAR SAD GRAMMY: Yes. Adam's behavior is rude and disrespectful, but it's perhaps not his fault. I am surprised his parents haven't noticed this. Because you feel his father might be heavy-handed, mention it to his mother and ask her to “nd out what the problem is with Adam because, clearly, there is one.Woman struggles to “nd purpose as a housewife 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 Shining in England BEETLE BAILEY

NATIONAL NEWS ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | 1GARY FIELDSAssociated PressWASHINGTON „ Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the Supreme Court ruling striking down race-based admissions in higher education, but it was the three justices who make the court the most diverse in its 233-year history who marked the stark, embittered battle lines over armative action.It was a moment heavy with history and emotion. Clarence Thomas, the longest serving justice and the courts second Black justice, read a concurring opinion from the bench, pointedly rejecting the validity of using race as the basis for preferential consideration. He was followed by Sonia Sotomayor, its first Latina, whose dissenting opinion took aim at Thomas. Then came Ketanji Brown Jackson, the courts first Black woman, whose written dissent was its own biting, metaphor-laden rebuke. The mood in the courtroom Thursday was somber, with most of the justices sit ting expressionless, taking occasional sips of water. Both Jackson and Sotomayor looked straight ahead as Roberts read the majority opinion and Thomas his concur rence. Thomas, who has opposed race-based measures that have come to the court since his confirmation in 1991, focused on how the practice had negatively impacted Asian Americans to the advantage of Black students. Although its not my practice to announce my separate opinions from the bench, the race-based discrimination against Asian Americans in these cases compels me to do so today,Ž Thomas said. He said later that The Constitution continues to embody a simple truth: Two discriminatory wrongs cannot make a right.Ž Thomas said the nations racial prob lems cannot be solved by affirmative action or some other conception of equity. Racialism simply cannot be undone by different or more racialism.Ž Thursdays court ruling, he said, makes clear that, in the future, universities wishing to discriminate based on race in admissions must articulate and justify a compelling and measurable state interest based on concrete evidence. Given the strictures set out by the court, I highly doubt any will be able to do so.Ž When Sotomayor read her dissent, the tension was palpable in the ornate, staid chamber with the sculpted marble panels portraying Justice, Wisdom and Truth and a variety of historic figures, from Moses to Mohammad, peering down from above. While she criticized the major ity opinion and said it was rolling back decades of precedent and momentous progressŽ she saved her most visible ire for Thomas opinion. Justice Thomas offers an originalist defense of the colorblind Constitution, but his historical analysis leads to the inevitable conclusion that the Constitu tion is not, in fact, colorblind.ŽSupreme Court ruling hit with criticism, praiseA supplement to your hometown newspaper COLLEEN LONGAssociated PressWASHINGTON „ A man armed with explosive materials and weapons, and wanted for crimes related to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was arrested Thursday in the Washing ton neighborhood where former President Barack Obama lives, law enforcement officials said. Taylor Taranto, 37, was spotted by law enforcement a few blocks from the for mer presidents home and fled, though he was chased by U.S. Secret Service agents. Taranto has an open warrant on charges related to the insurrection, two law enforcement officials said. The offi cials were not authorized to speak publicly about an ongoing case and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. They said Taranto also had made social media threats against a public figure. He was found with weapons and materials to create an explosive device, though one had not been built, one of the officials said. No one was injured. It was not clear whether the Obamas were at their home at the time of his arrest. Metropolitan Police arrested Taranto on charges of being a fugitive from jus tice. The explosives team swept Tarantos van and said there were no threats to the public. Taranto was a U.S. Navy veteran and a webmaster for the Republican Party in Franklin County, in Washington state, according to the Tri-City Herald news paper. He told the newspaper in an interview last year that he was volunteering for the Republican Party. It wasnt clear what, exactly, Taranto is accused of doing in the riot, where sup porters of then-President Donald Trump smashed windows of the Capitol and beat and bloodied police officers in an effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presiden tial election. More than 1,000 people have been charged with federal crimes related to the Capitol riot. Over 600 of them have pleaded guilty, while approximately 100 others have been convicted after trials decided by judges or juries. More than 550 riot defendants have been sentenced, with over half receiving terms of impris onment ranging from six days to 18 years.Man arrested with weapons near Obamas Washington home ASSOCIATED PRESSRioters loyal to President Donald Trump rally at the U.S. Capitol in Washington on Jan. 6, 2021.

APG NATIONAL NEWS 2 | FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023MARK SCOLFOROAssociated PressThe Canadian wildfires that have shrouded much of the nation in smoky haze are making it much harder for American kids to enjoy one of the staples of summer camp: fresh country air. As a result, many camps in the Midwest and the East have been moving activities indoors, seeking advice from medical professionals and hoping the air quality improves soon so campers can get back to hiking, play ing tetherball and waging games of capture the flag. Theres certainly a concern, considering that we take children from the cities,Ž Mark Zides, chairman of the Pennsylvania Camp Association, said Thursday. Com ing up to the mountains for the summer is what summer camp is all about.Ž YMCA Camp Kon-O-Kwee Spencer in western Pennsylvania closed its outdoor pool Wednesday and sent home a few campers with health problems, said Karla Schell, associate executive director of the camp about 35 miles (56 kilometers) north of Pittsburgh. The camp is hosting 244 children in its traditional program and 19 adults in a program for people with special needs. We were definitely smelling it yesterday in the morn ing and then, as the air quality index continued to rise, we adjusted our activities just as we do with any weather change that we have,Ž Schell said Thursday. There are some activities that we normally would have done out side. We were pulling those activities inside.Ž Similarly, all activities on Wednesday and Thursday were moved inside at the eight camps run by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Pennsylvania „ roughly 350 campers in all. Pennsylvanias Department of Environmental Pro tection recommended Thursday that young children, older people and those with respiratory problems avoid outdoor activities and prolonged exertion outside. The agency declared a code redŽ for air quality and noted that the smoke was concentrated in the western part of the state. Maggie Groce, one of the directors of the summer camp program at Tanglewood Nature Center in Elmira, New York, said kids were staying inside as the air quality level hit 183 „ in the dangerous red zone. Ideally, we would love for them to be outside in nature, on the trails, so this has thrown a wrench on our plans,Ž Groce said. As the centers day camps for elementary school children began this week, science projects with papi er-mache volcanoes were being built inside, using kiddie pools to contain the mess. Other common camp activities such as hiking and general running around have been called off. Groce said the older children understand, but its been harder for the younger ones „ particularly with a blue sky and the sun out behind the haze.Wildfire smoke drives summer camp activities indoors Honolulu 87/76 Hilo 84/70 Anchorage 64/49 Fairbanks 72/52 Juneau 64/52 Monterrey 99/75 Chihuahua 95/68 Los Angeles 80/62 Washington 88/70 New York 84/68 Atlanta 95/72 Detroit 89/70 Houston 99/78 Kansas City 96/72 Minneapolis 88/68 El Paso 100/77 Denver 67/54 San Francisco 75/56 Seattle 79/55 Port Charlotte 95/74 Knoxville 91/70 Greensboro 82/67 Madison 88/67 Bozeman 83/52 Nampa 95/61 Toronto 78/65 Montreal 84/69 Winnipeg 84/61NATIONAL (for the 48 contiguous states)INTERNATIONALNATIONAL FORECAST In the digital e-edition, you can click anywhere on the US map to get up-to-date forecasts, radar, MinuteCast® and more.NATIONAL CITIES TODAY INTERNATIONAL CITIES-10s-0s0s10s20s30s40s50s60s70s80s90s100s110sShowersT-stormsRainFlurriesSnowIce Cold frontWarm frontStationary frontWEATHER HISTORYWEATHER TRIVIA’City Hi Lo W UV AQCity Hi Lo W UV AQCity Hi Lo W UV AQCity Hi Lo W UV AQCity Hi Lo W UV AQ City Hi Lo W Hi Lo W City Hi Lo W Hi Lo WWeather ( W ): s -sunny, pc -partly cloudy, c -cloudy, sh -showers, t -thunderstorms, r -rain, sf -snow ”urries, sn -snow, i -ice.

FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | 3 Russian general believed to be detained after Wagner mutinyWASHINGTON „ Gen. Sergei Surovikin, the deputy commander of the Russian group of forces fighting in Ukraine, has been detained days after mercenaries staged a revolt inside Russia. Thats according to two people familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press about sensitive U.S. and Ukrainian intelligence assessments. Its not clear whether Surovikin faces any charges or where he is being held. But his detention comes days after Wagner Group mercenaries took the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don and were heading toward Moscow in what appears to have been an aborted insurrection.Older Americans can get RSV vaccine this fallAmericans 60 and older can get a new RSV vaccine but should discuss it with their doctor first. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday that those eligible for the newly approved vaccines should talk with their doctor to see if it is right for them. Two vaccines are expected to be ready in the fall. RSV is a common cause of cold-like symptoms. But it can be dangerous for infants and the elderly. The CDC says adults with chronic heart or lung disease, weakened immune systems and those living in long-term care facilities are at higher risk for the respiratory infection.Rapper Travis Scott will not face criminal chargesHOUSTON „ Prosecutors and an attorney for rap superstar Travis Scott say a grand jury has declined to indict him in a criminal investigation of a massive crowd surge that killed 10 people at the 2021 Astroworld music festival in Houston. Lawyer Kent Schaffer and prosecutors confirmed Thursday the grand jury had met and decided not to indict his client on any criminal charges stemming from the concert. Prosecutors say they were limited to presenting possible charges of endangering a child to the grand jury. Schaffer said Scott never encouraged people to do anything that resulted in anyone being hurt. Houston police and federal officials have been investigating whether Scott, concert promoter Live Nation and others had sufficient safety measures in place.UPS gets a Friday deadline from union to improve contractFrustrated by an appalling counterproposalŽ earlier this week, the head of the union representing 340,000 UPS workers said a strike is imminent and gave the shipping giant a Friday deadline to improve its offer. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters walked away from negotiations Wednesday, demanding that UPS give its last, best, and final offerŽ no later than June 30. Teamsters officials did not say what time the Friday deadline was or what actions it might take if it is not met. Earlier this month, the Teamsters said 97% of unionized workers voted for a strike authorization. The current contract expires Aug. 1. AROUND THE WORLDNATION & WORLD SYLVIE CORBET, JOHN LEICESTER and ALEX TURNBULLAssociated PressNANTERRE, France „ France mobilized tens of thousands of police officers Thursday in an effort to head off widespread urban rioting following the deadly police shooting of a 17-year-old that shocked the nation, with commuters rushing home before transport services closed early to avoid being targeted by rioters. Protesters in some cities set fires in the streets as the night progressed. The police officer accused of pulling the trigger Tuesday was handed a preliminary charge of voluntary homicide after prosecutor Pascal Prache said his initial investigation led him to conclude the conditions for the legal use of the weapon were not met.Ž The detained police officers lawyer, speaking on French TV channel BFM-TV, said the officer was sorry and devastated.Ž The officer did what he thought was necessary in the moment, attorney Laurent-Franck Lienard told the news outlet. He doesnt get up in the morning to kill people,Ž Lienard said of the officer, whose name ha not been released. He really didnt want to kill. But now he must defend himself, as hes the one whos detained and sleeping in prison.Ž Despite government appeals for calm and vows that order would be restored, smoke billowed from cars and garbage set ablaze in the Paris suburb of Nanterre following a peaceful afternoon march in honor of the teen identified only by his first name, Nahel. After a morning crisis meeting following violence that injured dozens of police and damaged nearly 100 public buildings, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said the number of officers in the streets would more than quadruple, from 9,000 to 40,000. In the Paris region alone, the number of officers deployed was more than doubled to 5,000. The professionals of disorder must go home,Ž Darmanin said. While theres no need yet to declare a state of emergency „ a measure taken to quell weeks of rioting in 2005 „ he added: The states response will be extremely firm.Ž There were 100 arrests nationwide Thursday night, according to a national police spokesperson, as officials reported scattered clashes in cities across the country despite the stepped-up deployments.

Former Broward County Deputy Scot Peterson wept as the verdicts were read, while the fathers of two students murdered at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb, 14, 2018, stared straight ahead and quickly left the courtroom. The jury had deliberated for 19 hours over four days. After court adjourned, Peterson, his family and friends rushed into a group hug as they whooped, hollered and cried. Kevin Bolling, Petersons private investigator, chased after lead prosecutor Chris Killoran and said something. Killoran turned and snapped at him, Way to be a good winnerŽ and slapped him on the shoulder. Members of the prosecution team then nudged Killoran out of the courtroom. I got my life back. Weve got our life back,Ž Peterson said as he exited the courtroom, his arm around his wife, Lydia Rodriguez, and his lawyer, Mark Eiglarsh.

ANNE DINNOCENZIOAP Retail WriterNEW YORK „ Bed & Bath & Beyond will live on, online at least, after Overstock.com acquired the bankrupt retail chains intellectual property assets for $21.5 million.The online retailer Overstock.com is dumping its name online and will become Bed & Bath & Beyond, which declared bankruptcy earlier this year. Overstock.coms CEO Jonathan John son told The Associated Press in a phone interview on Thursday that the company is considering chang ing its corporate name but wont make any decisions until after it digests the assets. The switcheroo to a very recognizable brand was cheered on Wall Street. Shares of Overstock.com Inc., based in Midvale, Utah, soared nearly 20% during afternoon trading Thursday. The deal doesnt include Bed Bath & Beyond stores, the last of which are expected to be shuttered Friday, or the Buybuy Baby chain. The name change will roll out in Canada next month and in August, a relaunch of the companys website and mobile app as Bed Bath & Beyond will appear in the U.S. Those visiting over stock.com will be redirected to bedbathandbeyond.com. The name Overstock still confuses some customers and suppliers who thought it was a liquidator. Thats how it got its start in 1999. It transformed in 2004 into a general merchandise retailer, selling a wide variety of items. In 2021, Overstock finetuned its strat egy to focus on furniture and home decor, getting rid of items like clothing. When Bed Bath & Beyonds finan cial woes deepened last year, Overstock.com tried to court the retailers suppliers but it met with some skep ticism. But after its bid for Bed Bath became public last week, it was able to add 100,000 bed and bath items to its site, Johnson said. He expects that pace will pick up. I cant count how many times we were asked when we were going to change the company name,Ž he said. This opportunity is too good to be true. We are Bed Bath and a bigger beyond.Ž Johnson said that it will offer some coupons to cater to the Bed Bath & Beyond customers who were used to the popular perk, but he noted that customers will be surprised that the discounts offered by Overstock.com are actually better on an every day basis. He also added that Overstock plans to step up marketing to Bed Bath & Beyond customers to make them aware of the change. He estimated Overstock.com has about 5 million customers; Bed Bath & Beyonds online customers number about 10 million. Bed Bath & Beyond „ one of the original big box retailers known for its seemingly endless offerings of sheets, towels and kitchen gadgets „ filed for bankruptcy protection in April. The filing followed years of dismal sales and numerous attempts to turn the flailing business around.Bed Bath & Beyond lives on!(line). ASSOCIATED PRESSShoppers enter exit a Bed Bath & Beyond store Monday, May 29, 2023, in Glendale, Colo. Overstock.com is dumping its name online and becoming Bed Bath & Beyond. The news, announced Wednesday, June 28, comes as a federal bankruptcy court approved the online retailers bid to buy the bankrupt retailers intellectual property assets for $21.5 million. BRIEFCASE Federal Reserve may tighten rules after US bank failuresWASHINGTON „ Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell says the cen tral bank may have to tighten its oversight of the American financial system after the failure of three large U.S. banks this spring. Powell said Thurs day that tougher regulations put in place following the 2007-2008 financial cri sis have made large multinational banks much more resilient to widespread loan defaults. But Powell says the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and two other banks exposed different vulnerabilities that the Fed will likely address through new proposals. He didnt provide details, but other Fed officials have said banks should be required to hold more capital in reserve to guard against loan losses. Tech industry tie-up heads to judge as Microsoft defends $69B Activision dealSAN FRANCISCO „ The fate of what could be the priciest merger in tech industry history is now in the hands of a federal judge who must decide whether to stop Microsoft from closing its deal to buy video game company Activision Blizzard. Federal antitrust enforcers have sued to block the $69 billion acquisition they say will harm competition between Microsoft and gaming industry com petitors such as Sony and Nintendo.

The New Mexico Environment Department announced Thursday a $40.3 million penalty against Austin, Texas-based Ameredev. Regu lators allege excessive emissions at five facilities in New Mexicos Lea County. Regulators say unauthorized emissions are the equivalent natural gas burned to heat nearly 17,000 homes for a year.Facebook content moderators in Kenya call the work torture.NAIROBI, Kenya „ Nearly 200 former content moderators for Facebook are suing the company and a local contractor in a court case in Kenya that could have implications for the work worldwide.

SCIENCE ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | 5RIO YAMATThe Associated PressLAS VEGAS „ Scorching heat across the U.S. already has caused more than a dozen deaths in Texas alone and led to mounting misery for millions of people from the Pacic Northwest to the South.And the official end of summer is still months away. Heres a guide on how to keep cool and stay safe in the punishing temperatures as the latest heat wave ravaging the country spreads east.WHY IS EXTREME HEAT DANGEROUS?Heat kills more Americans than any other weather event, including tornadoes and flooding, even though most heat-related deaths are preventable through out reach and intervention, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Heat is the silent killer. No one thinks about it,Ž said Ben Zaitchik, a professor and climate scientist at Johns Hopkins University whose research includes heat waves. Its getting hotter just about everywhere. That means even without a particular weather phenomenon, like what were seeing in Texas right now, were seeing temperatures we arent used to, and that in its own right is a risk.Ž The body normally cools itself by sweating, but extreme heat can interrupt your ability to do that, potentially leading to heat exhaustion or heat stroke, organ failure or death. Older adults, young children and people with chronic illnesses like diabetes are most at risk. But that doesnt mean healthy people are immune, said Ashley Ward, director of Duke Universitys Nicholas Institute for Envi ronmental Policy Solutions. The heat can have adverse effects on people who work or exercise outdoors, for example, and also homeless peo ple or those without efficient air conditioning or any at all.WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF HEATRELATED ILLNESS?You might be experiencing a heat stroke if your body temperature reaches or surpasses 103 degrees. Other symptoms include nausea, headaches, thirst and a fast and strong heart rate. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says heat stroke is a medical emergency and recommends that people with symptoms call 911. Symptoms of heat exhaustion include heavy sweat ing, muscle cramps, dizziness, vomiting and cold, pale or clammy skin. The CDC says you should seek treatment if such symptoms worsen or last more an hour.WHAT IF I DONT HAVE AIR CONDITIONING?Spending just a few hours in an air-conditioned space can help your body stay cooler when you go back into the heat, according to the CDC. So take advantage of public spaces with air conditioning, like libraries and shopping malls. During the day, cover your windows, turn off the lights and avoid using the stove or oven. If you live in a dry area, hang wet towels to cool the room. At night, if temperatures drop, keep your windows and shutters open. Ward, the Duke researcher, said its also important to think outside the box if you dont have air conditioning. After taking a cool bath or shower, for example, sit in front of a fan while your skin is still damp. She also recommends soaking your feet above the ankles and arms above the elbows in cool water for 10-15 minutes. If you only have one fan, Ward said, prioritize creating a cool sleeping space rather than common areas. This is when your body really recovers from heat exposure during the day,Ž she said.WHAT IF I HAVE TO BE OUTSIDE?Stay hydrated, and dont wait until youre thirsty to drink fluids. Limit your sun exposure by staying in the shade or using an umbrella. Wear sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat or cap. If you work outside and have access to cool water, con sider soaking your shirt and repeating the process every hour or whenever it dries out, Ward said.DO I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BURN INJURIES?Doctors at Arizona and Nevada burn centers have warned of injuries from contact with superheated roads and other surfaces. This can happen, for example, if you collapse from dehy dration or heat stroke and cant get up off the hot ground. But burns can also come from touching hot surfaces like leather seats or poolside concrete, so be careful when reaching for a metal door handle or a seat belt buckle.HOW DO I KEEP MY PETS SAFE?Schedule your outdoor walks for when its coolest, like the early morning or evening, and protect your furry friends paws with breathable shoes. Keep pets inside if you can, and if they must go out, make sure they have access to shade. A doghouse by itself is not shade,Ž Ward said. Thats an oven.Ž Never leave a pet in a hot car.ASSOCIATED PRESSTubers ”oat the cool Comal River in New Braunfels, Texas, Thursday, June 29, 2023. Meteorologists say scorching temperatures br ought on by a heat dome have taxed the Texas power grid and threaten to bring record highs to the state.Heres how to keep cool and stay safe during a heat wave

SPORTS ADAMS PUBLISHING GROUP | FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 | 6KYLE HIGHTOWERAssociated PressThe Supreme Courts 2018 ruling in Murphy vs. NCAA ushered in a new era of legalized sports betting in the U.S., allowing states to establish their own sports wagering laws. Despite opposition from the major sports leagues, the high court overturned a federal law „ the 1992 Professional Amateur Sports Protection Act „ that had barred betting on football, basketball, baseball and other sports in most states. With the ruling came a new approach to how the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL associate with the industry. Each league prohibits its employees and players from betting on their own games. But there are variations. Heres a look at how the leagues operate:IS ANY FORM OF GAMBLING BY PLAYERS PERMITTED?Yes, but with caveats. In the preamble of its 2018 gambling policy the NFL states, Gambling, particularly on NFL games or other sports, presents potential risks to the integrity of our competition and can negatively impact team cohesion.Ž But that same policy goes on to outline that, All NFL Personnel other than Players are further prohibited from placing, soliciting, or facilitating bets on any other professional (e.g., NBA, MLB, NHL, PGA, USTA, MLS), college (e.g., NCAA basketball), international (e.g., World Baseball Classic, World Cup), or Olympic sports competition, tournament or event.Ž NFL players and personnel are not allowed to engage in gambling in NFL facilities, disclose any nonpublic NFL information, enter a sportsbook during the NFL season, or maintain any social, business or personal relationships with sports gamblers. But they can place non-sports wagers at legally operated casinos and horse or dog racing tracks on their personal time, including during the season. The NBA constitution doesnt expressly forbid players from betting on other sports. According to Major League Baseballs 2019 policy on sports betting, Baseball personnel may place legal bets on sports other than baseball or softball in jurisdictions in which sports betting is legal, provided that the person placing the bet is eligible under applicable law to place the wager.Ž The NHL only prohibits players from gambling on league games.WHAT ARE THE PUNISHMENTS FOR VIOLATORS OF LEAGUE GAMBLING RULES?Anyone associated with MLB found to have violated its Rule 21, which prohibits bets placed on baseball games that dont involve their teams, faces fines and a yearlong suspension. A permanent ban „ like the one infamously given to Pete Rose „ is imposed on anyone associated with the league who bets on a game they are involved in. A person also could face penalties for failing to report any attempted gambling rule violations, including attempts by anyone who tries to solicit them to manipulate or fix a game. The NBAs constitution and bylaws give broad authority to the league commissioner to punish any player who directly or indirectly, wagers money or anything of value on the outcome of any game played by a team in the league operated by the Association.Ž After the accused has had a chance to answer the charges, the decision of the Commissioner shall be final, binding and conclusive and unappealable.Ž The penalties could include a fine, suspension, expulsion and/or perpetual disqualification from further association with the NBA. In its most recent collective bargaining agreement, the NHL only mentions gambling once, saying, Gambling on any NHL Game is prohibited.Ž That same document also empowers the commissioner to discipline players for office conduct. Potential penalties for those violations include fines, suspension, expulsion or cancellation of the players contract. The NFL outlines in its gambling policy that the commissioner or his designee will decide violations of policy on a case-by-case basis.Ž As NFL cracks down on gambling, what events are pro athletes allowed to bet on? ASSOCIATED PRESSFans walk past a sportsbook attached to the Footprint Center, Tuesday, March 14, 2023, in Phoenix. Harden picks up $35.6 million option with the 76ers, AP saysPHILADELPHIA „ James Harden picked up his $35.6 million contract option for next season with the Philadelphia 76ers, with the franchise exploring trades to move the veteran scorer, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. Harden informed the 76ers of his choice Thursday ahead of the midnight deadline to pick up the option, according to the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the decision was not made public. The 33-yearold Harden could have declined the option and decided to try for free agency. The Sixers had the right to offer him a $210 million, four-year deal, $8 million more overall than any other team.Trout elected to 11th All-Star Game, 4 Texas players to startNEW YORK „ Los Angeles Angels center fielder Mike Trout has been elected to his 11th All-Star Game and four Texas Rangers were chosen by fans for the American Leagues lineup for the July 11 game at Seattles T-Mobile Park. Trout was voted to start for the 10th time and will be joined in the AL lineup by teammate Shohei Ohtani, who last week was chosen at designated hitter as the leagues top-vote getter in the first round. Nine first-time starters were picked by fans, including three Rangers: catcher Jonah Heim, shortstop Corey Seager and third baseman Josh Jung. Rangers second baseman Marcus Semien was chosen for his second start.Deal with Dodgers co-owner unifies womens pro hockey in North America, AP sources sayProfessional womens hockey in North America was unified Thursday when a co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers struck a deal with the Premier Hockey Federation. Thats according to two people with direct knowledge of the agreement who spoke to The Associated Press because the deal hadnt been announced. A third person also confirmed the partial purchase of the PHF by Mark Walters firm. One of the people says the deal will result in a new womens hockey league that is projected to launch in January. The PHF will cease operations under the deal, according to one of the people.NHL draft wraps up with 11 picks for Chicago, dearth of trades ahead of free agencyNASHVILLE, Tenn. „ The Chicago Blackhawks acquired their latest generational talent along with a big dose of speed in one of the NHLs largest draft hauls. They also made another big move for their future Thursday by adding veteran Corey Perry to help teach No. 1 overall pick Connor Bedard how to be the leader the Blackhawks need to contend for a Stanley Cup. Chicago general manager Kyle Davidson says he couldnt be happier with how this draft worked out with 11 players taken. The Anaheim Ducks added a big Swedish center to their young, talented offense in Leo Carlsson at No. 2 overall. SPORTS BRIEFS

TODAY IN HISTORY FRIDAY, JUNE 30, 2023 ASSOCIATED PRESSWreckage of buses and cars and other debris caused by a V1 ying bomb which fell in the Kingsway, London, on June 30, 1944. Today is Friday, June 30, the 181st day of 2023. There are 184 days left in the year.ON THIS DATEIn 1918, labor activist and socialist Eugene V. Debs was arrested in Cleveland, charged under the Espionage Act of 1917 for a speech he’d made two weeks earlier denouncing U.S. involvement in World War I. (Debs was sentenced to prison and disenfranchised for life.) In 1921, President Warren G. Harding nominated former President William Howard Taft to be chief justice of the United States, succeeding the late Edward Douglass White. In 1934, Adolf Hitler launched his “blood purge” of political and military rivals in Germany in what came to be known as “The Night of the Long Knives.” In 1958, the U.S. Senate passed the Alaska statehood bill by a vote of 64-20. In 1971, the Supreme Court ruled, 6-3, that the government could not prevent The New York Times or The Washington Post from publishing the Pentagon Papers. A Soviet space mission ended in tragedy when three cosmonauts aboard Soyuz 11 were found dead of asphyxiation inside their capsule after it had returned to Earth. In 1985, 39 American hostages from a hijacked TWA jetliner were freed in Beirut after being held 17 days. In 1986, the Supreme Court, in Bowers v. Hardwick, ruled 5-4 that states could outlaw homosexual acts between consenting adults (however, the nation’s highest court effectively reversed this decision in 2003 in Lawrence v. Texas). In 1994, the U.S. Figure Skating Association stripped Tonya Harding of the national championship and banned her for life for her role in the attack on rival Nancy Kerrigan. In 2009, American soldier Pfc. Bowe R. Bergdahl went missing from his base in eastern Afghanistan, and was later confirmed to have been captured by insurgents after walking away from his post. (Bergdahl was released on May 31, 2014 in exchange for five Taliban detainees; he pleaded guilty to desertion and misbehavior before the enemy, but was spared a prison sentence by a military judge.) In 2016, saying it was the right thing to do, Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced that transgender people would be allowed to serve openly in the U.S. military, ending one of the last bans on service in the armed forces. In 2020, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves signed a landmark bill retiring the last state flag bearing the Confederate battle emblem. Boston’s arts commission voted unanimously to remove a statue depicting a freed slave kneeling at Abraham Lincoln’s feet.TEN YEARS AGO Nineteen elite firefighters known as members of the Granite Mountain Hotshots were killed battling a wildfire northwest of Phoenix after a change in wind direction pushed the flames back toward their position. Addressing students at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, President Barack Obama declared that the future of the young and growing continent still rested in Nelson Mandela’s vision for equality and opportunity. Inbee Park won the U.S. Women’s Open in Southampton, New York, for her third straight major of the year.FIVE YEARS AGO Hundreds of thousands of people gathered for rallies and marches in hundreds of locations around the country, demanding an end to the separation of immigrant families who cross into the United States. In Portland, Oregon, skirmishes between right-wing and left-wing groups left four people hospitalized. In the Iranian city of Khorramshahr, an initially peaceful protest over water shortages turned violent as police and protesters clashed.ONE YEAR AGOKetanji Brown Jackson was sworn in to the Supreme Court, shattering a glass ceiling as the first Black woman on the nation’s highest court. The 51-year-old Jackson became the court’s 116th justice, taking the place of a justice she once worked for, Stephen Breyer, whose retirement took effect as she took over. The same day, in a blow to the fight against climate change, the Supreme Court limited how the nation’s main anti-air pollution law could be used to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. By a 6-3 vote, the court said that the Clean Air Act did not give the Environmental Protection Agency broad authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants that contribute to global warming. West Coast powerhouses USC and UCLA announced they were planning to leave the Pac-12 for the Big Ten Conference in a surprising move that promised to lead to a major realignment of college sports.TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS Actor Lea Massari is 90.

serves up its latest update on U.S. consumer sentiment today. The consumer sentiment index measures how U.S. consumers are feeling about the economy and their personal finances. Its expected to remain at the initial reading of 63.9, up from May. That would reflect improvement in consumers long-run and short-term economic outlook, despite worsening assessments of personal finances due to inflation.Today Inflation watchThe Commerce Department releases its May snapshot of U.S. consumer spending and inflation today. Economists expect the personal consumption expenditure price index, a gauge of inflation thats closely monitored by the Federal Reserve, to hold steady in May. Inflation remains high and is putting persistent pressure on consumers while worries about a potential recession in 2023 continue. The Fed has been raising interest rates for more than a year to try and tame inflation.Earnings on tapConstellation Brands, which is licensed to sell Modelo beer in the U.S., reports its fiscal first-quarter financial results today. Wall Street expects the company to report profit of $2.83 per share, marking gains from a year ago. Recent data from Nielsen and analyzed by Bump Williams Consulting shows Modelo overtaking Bud Light as Americas top-selling beer. Grupo Modelo, the Mexican brewer, is owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev, the parent company of Bud Light.0.0 0.3 0.6% M A M F J D 0.2 0.6 0.1 0.4 est. 0.4 0.3Consumer spending seasonally adjusted percent changeSource: FactSetConsumer sentiment index not seasonally adjustedSource: FactSet0 40 80 J M A M F J est. 63.9 64.9 59.2 67.0 62.0 2023 22 23 63.5 MONEY & MARKET$Page 3 www.yoursun.com
