FRINKCounty eyes contract for building official By MICHAEL D.

THE POWER OF AN EARLY MORNING SUNRISE County to discuss monkey business By MICHAEL D. BATES Chronicle Reporter Ebony, Ralph and Emily will nd out Tuesday if the county will spend almost $100,000 to help improve their island oasis. They are the inhabitants of Monkey Island in the Homosassa River. At least they were, until they were temporarily relocated while construction continues on their abode by the Riverside Resort. The former weather-beat en home in the Homosassa River was demolished last October and a new one was erected. But more work is needed to renovate the island, including the installation of air-con ditioning to cool off the pri mates in the hot summers. The nonprot Historic Monkey Island Inc. (HMI) has asked the county to al locate $98,000 of tourist tax money to help fund construc tion of a new habitat and en richment center on the island. And HMI will match it. Once built, the monkeys will have a new house and porch with heating and air conditioning. The Monkey Island discus sion will swing into action beginning at 1 p.m. Tuesday, April 11, at the Citrus County Courthouse, 110 N. Apopka Ave., Inverness.Board mulls $98,000 request to improve Monkey Island Matthew Beck / Chronicle photo editor Citrus County commissioners on Tuesday will consider funding nearly $100,000 to assist with improvements to Monkey Island, a popular tourist destination that spider monkeys have inhabited for decades.Hometown athletes as an inspiration By NANCY KENNEDY Chronicle Reporter If you’re a Carolina Panthers fan, you might know the name Sam Franklin, the safety who sacked Kansas City Chiefs quar terback Patrick Mahomes in a De cember 2020 game.

A2 Tuesday, April 11, 2023 Citrus County ChronicleClose gopher tortoise encounters legal? It depends By MICHAEL D. BATES Chronicle Reporter Chances are you’ve seen a gopher tortoise in the road while driving and stopped to pick it up and place it out of harm’s way. But because it is a state-listed threatened spe cies, did you do the right thing? What are the rules regarding these reptiles any way? “Remember that gopher tortoises are a protected species,” according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). “It is illegal to harm a gopher tortoise, its eggs or its burrow, to relocate with out a permit, or to possess a tortoise, its eggs, or any parts of a tortoise.” Those are intimidating rules, especially when it is a third-degree felony and punishable by up to ve years in prison, a $5,000 ne or both. The FWC came out Mon day with a list of tortoise do’s and don’ts. And it’s tting because that was Go pher Tortoise Day. Here are some: QIf a tortoise appears healthy and is not in imme diate danger, leave it alone. QIf you see one cross ing a road and, if it’s safe to do so, you can pick it up and place it in a safe loca tion along the roadside But make sure you point it in the direction it was heading. QNever put tortoises in water because they can’t swim like turtles. QIf you spot a sick, in jured or dead tortoise, noti fy the FWC during weekday business hours at (850) 921-1030. After hours, call toll-free at (888) 404-3922, And nally, here are some interesting factoids about gopher tortoises: QMore than 360 species share burrows gopher tor toises dig. Snakes, frogs, mice, cricket and lizards are some. QAbout 90 percent of their diet is grass QThey can weigh as much as 30 pounds and live 80s years in the wild QThey have an incredible sense of direction and will always nd their way home QGopher Tortoise Day was adopted in 2016 by the Gopher Tortoise Council to increase appreciation and conservation support for this Florida species.

On April 2 at 7:30 p.m., a Citrus County Sheriff’s Of ce deputy was dispatched to West Flanders Lane and North Palm Ridge Avenue in Crystal River regarding a battery complaint. According to the arrest re cords of Larry Bryant Kil patrick, 29, the deputy met with the victim and then pa trolled the area looking for Kilpatrick. About an hour later the deputy reported see ing Kilpatrick walking his bike by the victim’s home and talking to a woman. According to records, the deputy got out of the pa trol car and walked toward Kilpatrick and reported see ing part of a plastic baggie sticking out of his right, front pocket. The deputy asked Kilpat rick to sit on his patrol car’s front bumper, but according to records, Kilpatrick sat on the ground, against, and al most under the bumper. When the deputy was ready to arrest Kilpatrick on battery charges and directed Kilpatrick to stand, the dep uty reported seeing a plastic baggie under his patrol car, behind where Kilpatrick was previously sitting. The deputy searched Kil patrick but reported not nding the plastic baggie he had seen before. The deputy retrieved the baggie under his car and recognized the contents as mushrooms. The deputy reported that Kilpatrick said he didn’t know anything about the baggie or what was inside. The deputy reported not having a test kit to identi fy whether the mushrooms were illegal nor did any other deputy on duty that evening. The baggie and 0.3 ounces of mushrooms were placed into evidence and the deputy arrested Kilpatrick on battery charges. On April 3, the Citrus County Sheriff’s narcotics unit tested the mushrooms and conrmed for the ar resting deputy that they were psychedelic mush rooms, and illegal. The deputy went to the Citrus County jail where Kilpatrick was already held and arrested him again, this time for possession of a controlled substance. His bond was $2,000.

BATES Chronicle Reporter Florida gas prices rose 12 cents last week to an aver age $3.58 per gallon, the highest since January 2023. By comparison shopping, Citrus Countians can nd stations below that average. “Last week’s jump at the pump was expected, after OPEC announced oil pro duction cuts that immedi ately caused oil prices to surge,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. “Fortunately, after the initial gains on Monday, the oil market plateaued through the rest of the week,” he said. “It’s pos sible that retail gas prices could inch up a little more this week before fully ad justing to the moves in the futures market.” The U.S. price of oil rose 6 percent on Monday, after OPEC announced plans to cut more than a million bar rels of oil per day, according to the Auto Club. In March, oil prices plummeted on the banking crisis and concerns about an economic reces sion that would reduce fuel demand. OPEC’s plans to cut pro duction removes oil from a global market that was already tight on supplies AAA said.. Their goal is to keep upward pressure on oil prices and that appears to be working. Diesel gas users are faring better. “For diesel, the news con tinues to be good, with the national average price of diesel continuing to drop, now at its narrowest dif ference to gasoline in over 13 months,” said GasBud dy spokesman Patrick De Haan. GasBuddy provided this snapshot of gas prices in Florida and the national av erage going back 10 years: QApril 10, 2022: $4.05/g (U.S. Average: $4.10/g) QApril 10, 2021: $2.81/g (U.S. Average: $2.85/g) QApril 10, 2020: $1.84/g (U.S. Average: $1.84/g) QApril 10, 2019: $2.77/g (U.S. Average: $2.79/g) QApril 10, 2018: $2.60/g (U.S. Average: $2.66/g) QApril 10, 2017: $2.42/g (U.S. Average: $2.39/g) QApril 10, 2016: $2.04/g (U.S. Average: $2.04/g) QApril 10, 2015: $2.46/g (U.S. Average: $2.40/g) QApril 10, 2014: $3.67/g (U.S. Average: $3.61/g) QApril 10, 2013: $3.56/g (U.S. Average: $3.57/g) To check gas prices near your home, visit www.Gas Buddy.com Michael D. Bates is a staff writer with the Citrus County Chronicle and can be reached at mbates@chronicleonline.com.Some Citrus County stations are under the $3.58 averageTrash is everyone’s problem along county roads SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE There are 1,894 miles of paved roads maintained by Citrus County. Each day, Citrus County’s litter col lection crew covers about ten of them. It’s a four-per son team and, no matter how many times they work each right-of-way, their job is never done. “We work ten hours a day, four days a week,” said team member Patrick Collins. “We don’t get every single piece of litter, that’s impos sible, but we get the main pieces that are visible.” Last year alone, they col lected more than 89 tons of trash along Citrus County roadways. With the addition al support of Adopt-A-High way volunteers, more than 93 tons were gathered in all. “We weigh-in every day,” said Collins. “It comes from people ei ther throwing it out of their car window or losing it from the bed of their pick-up or trailer,” said Dan Sherlock, director of Citrus County’s Solid Waste Division. “It’s mainly household trash, litter, things that y off the back of cars and construction trucks,” said Collins, as he picked up a shattered piece of drywall along West Grover Cleve land Boulevard. The crew sticks mainly to heavily traveled main thoroughfares, but no coun ty-maintained road or street is beyond their scope. “We do not cover the state roads; those are done by a separate contractor,” said Sherlock, “but we will go pick up any county road there is. If you have a tiny street and somebody has dumped garbage all over the street, you just call the landll ofce, and we can schedule it.” On a recent day, the litter crew picked up 900 pounds of trash from one such ille gal dump. “I think we have a large number of people who want the County to be clean,” commented Sherlock. “I think most people, if you drove down the street you live on, you wouldn’t want to see it covered in gar bage.” “Litter is everyone’s job,” said Citrus County Admin istrator Steve Howard. “And it takes everyone in the County coming together to keep it clean.” To request right-of-way litter collection, call the Cit rus County Solid Waste Di vision at 352-527-7670.

Adam Chang, formerly the region manag er for the Citrus County Li brary System, was recently selected as the new director of Library Services, replac ing Head in February. Chang began his career in libraries at Polk County’s Mulberry Public Library. There, he worked to devel op technology programs and received various grants to expand library services. Chang made the move to Citrus County in 2014, when he began working at the Coastal Region branch in Crystal River. He has since spent time working in each of Citrus Libraries’ ve branch locations. In his time with the li brary system, Chang has held a variety of positions, including instruction and research librarian, circu lation supervisor, branch supervisor and branch manager. In his most recent position as region manager, Chang coordinated the Ho mosassa and Lakes Region branches while serving as lead for both the Youth Ser vices and Adult Literacy teams. Chang has also worked to develop award-winning programs for Citrus Librar ies; the topics range wildly in scope, from technology to sewing to Star Wars. “I knew from a young age that reading and education were important to me,” said Chang. “Libraries seemed like the natural t and have been a place where I could come into my own, while also learning from others through their experiences and stories.” Chang grew up in Citrus County after his parents moved to the area in 1990 to start a small business. A graduate of Citrus High School, Adam also holds an MBA and a Master of Library Science from the University of South Florida. “When the opportunity to work on the Citrus Libraries team was presented, I was excited to return to the com munity where I grew up,” recalled Chang. “Being able to give back to the commu nity that invested so much into me has been a driving force behind the work that I’ve done this far and will continue to do.” Chang is actively engaged in the library community and advisory groups around Florida. He is a graduate of Leadership Citrus, class of 2020, and was recently voted as one of the Citrus County Chamber of Com merce Young Professionals’ 40 Under 40. Currently, Chang is the president of the Tampa Bay Library Consortium (TBLC) Board of Direc tors and is a member of the Florida Library Association (FLA), where he was rec ognized as the Outstanding New Librarian in 2019.

In 2021, White got involved in renovating the historic Black Pine Hill Cemetery in Inverness. Now the 30-year-old White wants to bring at-tention to the local athletes who went to high school in Citrus County and went on to nd success in Division One college sports and/or professional sports. “IÂ’m starting with Citrus High School because thatÂ’s where I went, but I want to include Lecanto, Crystal River and Seven Rivers high schools too,” White said in a phone interview. He said his idea is to have former playersÂ’ retired jer-seys on display, or a banner or a plaque, something to hang from the gym ceiling or on a wall somewhere at the school, or something in a trophy case, something that says, “This player came from this place.” White said he got this idea after the FAU WomenÂ’s Basketball team made it to the 2023 Final Four and his cousin, Joy (Porter) Salter posted something on Face-book about her team making the Final Four 30 years ago. “So, I went on the CHS Alumni (Facebook page) and asked people if they knew of anyone who played Division One sports or went to the pros, and so many people responded,” White said. “From that, I compiled a list of the people, their sport, the year they graduat-ed from Citrus, their college and, if they went on to the pros, their team, also a link to anything written about them,” White said. Some of the other CHS alumni White found include: Patrick Fitzpatrick, football at Clemson (CHS 1975), Greg Key, baseball for Anaheim Angels (CHS 1978), Jimmy Bellamy, football at University of Utah (CHS 1988), Whit-ney Gelin, softball at Flor-ida State University (CHS 1995), Todd Fehrenbach, baseball for Cincinnati Reds (CHS 1995), Jacob Hensley, cross country at Universi-ty of South Florida (CHS 2019), and dozens more. “The reason IÂ’m doing this,” White said, “thereÂ’s a misconception in Citrus County that, because weÂ’re such a small community, you canÂ’t make it to the next level. So, I thought if we had something in the schools from the people who did reach the next level, then it would give kids hope that itÂ’s possible,” he said. “We have talent coming from here in Citrus County.” White said he has already talked to Larry Bishop, CHS athletics director about his idea and hopes it will catch on with the other schools in the county. Bishop was unavailable for comment on Monday. White said he mainly wants to make people aware that Citrus County has al-ways had talented young people and who go on to achieve their goals and dreams.

The schoolÂ’s principal agreed with the objection, and the book was removed last month. The book at one point shows the protagonist walk-ing in a park, enchanted by female nude statues, and lat-er proposing to a friend that they show each other their breasts. Under the school districtÂ’s policy, the principal makes the decision on a challenged book. If someone disagrees with a decision to keep the disputed book on the shelves, it can be appealed to a districtwide committee. The Anne Frank graphic novel had been checked out twice before it was removed, Cristen Maddux, a spokes-woman for the School Dis-trict of Indian River County, said Monday. Vero Beach is located 105 miles southeast of Orlando. Other books about Anne Frank and copies of the pub-lished diary she wrote chron-icling her time hiding from the Nazis with her family and other Jews in German-occu-pied Amsterdam remain in the school systemsÂ’ libraries. The Jewish teenagerÂ’s diary was published in 1947, sev-eral years after she died in a concentration camp, and it has become a classic read by tens of millions of people around the world. By law, Florida schools are required to teach about the Holocaust, and nothing has changed in that respect, Maddux said. “The feedback that the Holocaust is being removed from the curriculum and stu-dents arenÂ’t knowledgeable about what happened, that is not the case at all,” Maddux said. “ItÂ’s just a challenged book and the principal re-moved it.” Besides the Anne Frank graphic novel, Moms for Liberty in Indian River County objected to three books in the “Assassination Classroom” series, and they also were removed. Moms for Liberty leader Jennifer Pippin said the Anne Frank graphic novel violated state standards to teach the Holocaust accu-rately. “Even her version featured the editing out of the entries about sex,” Pippin said, referring to the orig-inal diary. “Even the pub-lisher of the book calls it a ‘biography,Â’ meaning, it writes its own interpretive spin. ItÂ’s not the actual work. It quotes the work, but itÂ’s not the diary in full. It chooses to offer a differ-ent view on the subject.” Published in 2018, the graphic novel was adapted from Anne FrankÂ’s diary by Ari Folman, and David Polonsky provided the il-lustrations.Brennan to head National Hurricane Center By SETH BORENSTEIN AP Science Writer The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra-tion named Mike Brennan, who was supervising hur-ricane forecasters during one of the busiest times for storms hitting America, as the new director of the Na-tional Hurricane Center in Miami. Brennan, who started Monday, had been branch chief since 2018 for the centerÂ’s hurricane special-ist unit, which writes warn-ings and forecasts for the public. He spent 2022 as the centerÂ’s acting deputy director. During those last ve years, 18 hurricanes have hit the United States, eight of them major. Brennan, 45, started at the hurricane center in 2008 as a hurricane specialist and got his bachelorÂ’s, masterÂ’s and doctorate degrees from North Carolina State Uni-versity. “The NHC director is one of the most visible and important jobs in the na-tion, and Mike possesses the right combination of experience, leadership and personal traits to prepare and guide us through major storms,” NOAA chief Rick Spinrad said.

Citrus County Chronicle Tuesday, April 11, 2023 A5We need a better leaderThis is in response to Donald TrumpÂ’s indict ment. This man needs to be mentally evaluated. He wasnÂ’t issued a gag order, but then he comes back to Mar-a-La-go and during the speeches heÂ’s kind of like directed the public again about the case, now he doesnÂ’t like the judge. This is the same thing that happened on Jan. 6, all these people go to jail, but yet the ringleaders get the runaround, and itÂ’s exactly following directing his troops to go against the legal system. We donÂ’t need a man like this in ofce, we need somebody thatÂ’s not going to be de-structive and dishonest.Standard for presidency has loweredIt is stated that 50 percent of students are below grade level in English and, even worse, 75 percent are below level in math. Well, with the standards that Biden has set for the presidency, they can prob-ably all still grow up to be president. Or in reality, ac-tually, they could probably qualify to be president right now by the standards of Joe Biden. And they now have a judge who is going to preside over Trump who is a “south border Pedro,” so it looks like theyÂ’re going to probably see if they can get Trump executed.Lower church attendance due to Â…I saw an article in todayÂ’s paper in regard to people not going to church like they used to. I donÂ’t care which church it is, but it all comes down to one word: sex.School books are too graphic for kidsRecently watching Channel 13 Tampa news, they showed a book that was available in school to 12-year-old boys. They opened it to the pictures, and they had to blackout 80 percent of it because they were so graphic sexually, they could not show it on the air. This is a book that our local liberals allowed in schools. In fact, our local liberals are in favor of teaching students about gay sex and transgenderism to kindergarten through third grade. All you got to do is read their letters and you can see theyÂ’re all for it. I donÂ’t understand it.Reverse your view on RepublicansIÂ’m reading the editorial page, Saturday, April 8, and someone wrote in saying “when are the Republicans going to stop ripping our systems apart,” talking bad about them. HeÂ’s got it all “bass-ackwards.” He should read the next article in your editorial, “Flip the Script,” now he hit the nail on the head.DeSantis versus the peopleI wonder what color the bus will be that DeSan-tis sends to transport all Democrats, blacks, gays, Mickey Mouse and anyone else who disagrees with him out of the state.Stop rewarding bad behaviorToday, Saturday, April 8, and on the front page of the Chronicle: “most Americans oppose any cuts to Social Security and Medicare.” IÂ’d like to take it a step further and say that the doctors have too much power in declaring people unt for work. Instead of just one doctor, it should be a panel of doctors. They give away the benets and handicapped stickers like theyÂ’re Christmas cards, and I think itÂ’s time that these people that are able to work should be made to work. And the same with having eight illegitimate kids where you canÂ’t even name the father, make them get a job and stop reward-ing bad behavior.Mental illness is the issueMy fellow Republicans presently say that assault ries arenÂ’t the problem, and we should be address-ing the mental illness prob-lem. After much pondering, I tend to agree. We should be looking into what psychological or mental problem would cause a seemingly normal individu-al to think that they need to own a weapon of war.We need county leaders who care about the peopleThe people of Citrus County need and want to know if people on the Planning & Development Commission Board are proting from the unwant-ed exponential growth they are forcing on our county. We need people in there representing our citizens and not their own bank accounts. Also, in that vein, we would love to know the same thing about our county commissioners.Money for Monkeys, nothing for county residentsI was a little shocked when I read in the Chron-icle on Thursday, April 6, that commissioners would consider spending close to $100,000 tax dollars updat-ing the monkeysÂ’ residence on Monkey Island, install-ing modern conveniences and air conditioning for three spider monkeys. TheyÂ’re monkeys for GodÂ’s sake. What do they do in the wild? Citrus County canÂ’t afford a Baker Act Facility and animal shelter or to x our boat ramps and roads, and this is what commissioners choose to spend their time and our money on? Next, theyÂ’re going to want to raise our taxes again.Parents need to take responsibilityThis is an answer to the person who said, ‘Floridi-ans are terried and sheÂ’s afraid to go out except to get groceries, and itÂ’s not because of buyers but be-cause of the guns.Â’ Grow-ing up in Citrus County as a child, going to high school here, all the guys had guns in the back of their trucks. You didnÂ’t see all this because you know what, parents have to take responsibility, and the kids are not taught responsibil-ity. We had no shootings when I grew up here as a kid. So, she needs to quit being terried of people having guns because crim-inals are going to get guns no matter what you do.Dear Senator Ingoglia Â…I have a message for Senator Ingoglia, if you want to consider term limits, you should start with yourself and the other senators and politicians in Washington D.C. We are sick of career politicians running this country. You want new fresh ideas for our counties, we need it for our country. If you really want to help us, put that into a law.Monkey business on Monkey IslandMonkey Island is a bunch of monkey business going on over there. First of all, who knows if the monkeys can even adjust when they come back to the island, theyÂ’ve been gone so long. And before you used to be able to just go over there and view everything, but now you have to eat at the riverside resort – the only people that really benet from Monkey Island. So, the whole thing is just a great big hoax. I do believe it should be preserved, but when you get all that money involved and everything, it ends up like Highway 19 – Is it ever going to be done?Control our land by buying itThe homeowners in Ozello, Sugarmill Woods and Terra Vista need to quit crying about development in their area and buy the land and control it. “Not in my backyard” just donÂ’t y.That opinion is dangerous, responseIÂ’m calling in reference to a letter in the Sunday, April 9, edition of the Chroni-cle from S.D. Hogan. Mr. Hogan, thank you so much, I applaud you. When I read the letter from Dennis Morris, I was just cringing. What he wrote is very dan-gerous. The ‘great replace-ment conspiracy theoryÂ’ is very dangerous. I have to say IÂ’m really surprised at the Chronicle for printing such irresponsible opin-ions. I mean everybodyÂ’s got a right to their opinion, but some of the things the Chronicle prints, it just blows me away. So, thank you again, Mr. Hogan, for addressing that letter and trying to educate people.Are they really going to vote on this?I canÂ’t believe that the county commissioners are going to spend $100,000 to air condition monkeys in Homosassa. Are they really going to vote on this?Church from home on the riseI found it very interesting in the front-page article about less population at churches. There are many reasons listed, but I feel an other reason for less people at church is that COVID had many of us watching our church ceremony from home, and I know many people now that are doing that. So, I think many are still attending church, but only from home. However, IÂ’m wondering how many of them still donate to the church? That would be very hurtful towards the funds of the churches trying to pay utilities and other things the churches do for people.Our lakes are deterioratingWhatÂ’s going on with Provision Point on Lake Spivey? WeÂ’re talking about multiple high-end trailer courts, clubhouse, swimming pool, boat dock, water taxiÂ… IÂ’m afraid this is going to ruin Lake Spiv-ey. There will be lots of shing pressures, airboats, trafc noise Â… In time, the lake system will be overrun and shing quality will deteriorate. If this keeps up, the lake system in In-verness will not be as good and itÂ’s starting to deteri-orate as more people are introduced into the lake.Mike Wright is right“‘1 for all’” tax (Page C1), April 2, Sunday – Mike Wright is right. Keep writing. ThatÂ’s three ways to say “right.” One for all and I am all for one. Thank you, Mike.I support the sales taxI want to thank Mike Wright for his column on Sunday about the sales tax addition (April 2, Page C1). ThatÂ’s the rst time I really understood what it meant. Mike did a great job of explaining it and how we might make it work and after reading his column, I now support such a tax. Thank you, Mike.Too many signs(Re Monday, April 3Â’s front-page story, “Coun-ty wants stronger sign language to deter loud boaters”): I live in Old Homosassa and I have a couple of thoughts re-garding the signs up at the springs. I sure hope it doesnÂ’t become the row of signs like it has in front of the elementary school. We already had an article in the Chronicle many years ago about the carnage and the disgrace and the embar-rassment of a sign every two feet. I hope you keep it minimal so we can observe some of nature while youÂ’re there. But, more importantly, while youÂ’re there doing that – if youÂ’re going to disturb the seabed and do that – what about considering making them tie-up signs or mooring signs like they do down in the Keys to save the coral? Down in the Keys, you anchor up to a oating ball thatÂ’s permanently anchored to the ground. If we throw an anchor down there at the springs, it will disturb the grass that theyÂ’re planting. So maybe make it a no-anchor zone, as well, and utilize those signs year round. Just a thought. I hope you will consider it.None of them alignYour editorial Monday, April 3 (Page A6), refer enced the $20 million in vestment in septic and sewer conversion in the Inverness Highlands.

A6 Tuesday, April 11, 2023 Citrus County ChronicleMichael Lerner, ‘Barton FinkÂ’ Oscar nominee, dies at 81 By LINDSEY BAHR Associated Press Michael Lerner, the Brooklyn-born character actor who played a myriad of imposing gures in his 60 years in the business, in cluding monologuing movie mogul Jack Lipnick in “Bar ton Fink,” the crooked club owner Bugsy Calhoun in “Harlem Nights” and an an gry publishing executive in “Elf” has died. He was 81. His nephew, actor Sam Lerner, announced his death in an Instagram post Sunday. Sam Lerner wrote that his uncle died Satur day but did not provide further details. Neither his nor Michael LernerÂ’s rep resentatives immediately responded to requests for further comment. “He was the coolest, most condent, talented guy,” Sam Lerner wrote. “Everyone that knows him knows how insane he was – in the best way...weÂ’re all lucky we can continue to watch his work for the rest of time. RIP Michael, en joy your unlimited Cuban cigars, comfy chairs, and endless movie marathon.” Born in 1941 to Roma nian-Jewish parents and raised in BrooklynÂ’s Red Hook neighborhood, Mi chael Lerner began acting locally as a teen and into his days at Brooklyn College, where he got the chance to play Willie Loman in “Death of a Salesman.” His ambitions to pursue acting professionally crys talized when he received a Fulbright Scholarship and chose to study theater at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts, where he lived in an apart ment with Yoko Ono for a time, appearing in her short lm “Smile.” His brother, Ken Lerner, also became an actor. Lerner moved to Los An geles in 1969, at the urg ing of an agent who saw his work at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco. He start ed getting cast in tele vision shows, including “M*A*S*H,” “The Brady Bunch” and “The Rock ford Files,” making his lm debut in Paul MazurskyÂ’s “Alex in Wonderland,” alongside Charlotte Ram pling. But he considered his rst signicant role to be in the television movie “Ruby and Oswald” (he played Jack Ruby) with Brian Dennehy. In 1981, he was cast in Bob RafelsonÂ’s remake of “The Postman Always Rings Twice,” alongside Jack Nicholson, who he called one of the most generous actors heÂ’d ever worked with, and Jessica Lange. A longtime cigar acionado, Lerner felt out of his depths when he was asked to smoke a cigarette in a scene with Nicholson in a jail. Lerner said he held the cigarette with both hands. He felt more comfort able playing cigar-smoking journalist and politician Pierre Salinger in “Mis siles of October,” for which Jackie Kennedy once told him that heÂ’d “out PierreÂ’d Pierre.” Lerner also loved work ing with John Sayles on “Eight Men Out,” in which he played Arnold Roth stein, the crime boss who conspired to x the 1919 World Series. “Most of the time I donÂ’t rehearse, but I do a lot of preparation. Especially for a biographical character or one of the studio heads,” he said in 2016. “I did a lot of research for Barton Fink and looked into Louis B. Mayer and all the moguls in Hollywood.” Joel and Ethan CoenÂ’s “Barton Fink,” released in 1991, is the lm Lerner is most remembered for. “I had auditioned for Joel and Ethan before, for Mill erÂ’s Crossing. So I walked into the room, as the char acter, and I donÂ’t say hello to anybody. And I sit down behind my desk and do this big speech: ‘Bart! Bart! So great to see you,’” Lern er said in 2016. “I did the monologue the way I want ed to do it and I just walked out of the room and that was it. And Joel and Ethan were just sitting in a corner just laughing and laughing and that was it.” Lerner, who drew inspi ration from Preston Sturg es movies, said the Coens didnÂ’t give him much act ing direction and “were a little nervous that I was talking so fast” but that they let him do what he wanted. The role got him his rst and only Oscar nomina tion, but in 1992, the Acad emy Award for supporting actor went to Jack Palance for “City Slickers.” The Coens called him years later to do a cameo in “A Serious Man.” Lerner also said he was frequently recognized for his turns in Eddie MurphyÂ’s “Harlem Nights” and “Elf,” as Fulton Greenway. He also played CherÂ’s father in the television spinoff of “Clueless.” Vince Bucci / Geffen Playhouse Michael Lerner appears at the opening night of Bette Midler in “IÂ’ll Eat You at Last: A Chat with Sue Mengers” at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles on Dec. 5, 2013. Lerner, the Brooklyn-born character actor who played a myriad of imposing figures in his 60 years in the business, includ ing crime bosses, CEOs, politicians, protective fathers and the monologuing movie mogul Jack Lipnick in “Barton Fink,” died Saturday at age 81.Gov. DeSantis to make first public appearance in South Carolina By MEG KINNARD Associated Press COLUMBIA, S.C. — Flor ida Gov. Ron DeSantis is set to make his rst public ap pearance in South Carolina, a state where votes will be criti cal if he launches an expected 2024 presidential bid. State Sen. Josh Kimbrell told The Associated Press that he would host DeSantis for an event on April 19 in Spar tanburg, in South CarolinaÂ’s heavily Republican Upstate. DeSantisÂ’ rst public visit to South Carolina, home of the leadoff presidential primary in the South, comes amid a brisk travel schedule during which the governor has taken his “Florida Blueprint” tour to Pennsylvania, New York and Michigan in recent weeks. With an anticipated presi dential bid in the ofng, the travel has opened up an ave nue for DeSantis to lay out some of his policy achieve ments in Florida, setting up possible contrasts with po tential GOP rivals, including former President Donald Trump. On Sunday, Kimbrell told the AP that he had been hoping to bring DeSantis to South Carolina for months now, arguing that political ly savvy Republicans in the early voting state are accus tomed to having multiple chances to get to know presi dential candidates, in person. “IÂ’ve told everybody asso ciated with his team, ‘YouÂ’ve got to get here early and of ten,’” said Kimbrell, who has already joined efforts with a political action committee urging DeSantis to get into the race. “IÂ’ve tried to make it clear to them that, if you want to win, youÂ’ve got to get here early.” South Carolina for months has been hosting GOP candidates, including Trump, former South Car olina Gov. Nikki Haley and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson. There have also been trips from many of those anticipated to join the eld, including former Vice Pres ident Mike Pence. Later this week, after a swing through Iowa and New Hampshire, Sen. Tim Scott returns home to South Carolina for a sum mit with donors, as he mulls a bid of his own. While this would be De SantisÂ’ rst public South Carolina event, he was in the state last year for a guberna torial fundraiser. To Kimbrell, who said he agrees with Trump on policy but not “on the way he ap proached things personally,” DeSantis is well-positioned to be a better alternative to Trump, but needs to start spending more time in South Carolina.

Citrus County Chronicle Tuesday, April 11, 2023 A7Police: 4 killed in shooting at downtown Louisville bank By DYLAN LOVAN and CLAIRE GALOFARO Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A Louisville bank employee armed with a rie opened re at his workplace Mon day morning, killing four people – including a close friend of KentuckyÂ’s gov ernor – while livestreaming the attack on Instagram, au thorities said. Police arrived as shots were still being red in side Old National Bank and killed the shooter in an exchange of gunre, Lou isville Metro Police De partment Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel said. The cityÂ’s mayor, Craig Green berg, called the attack “an evil act of targeted vio lence.” The shooting, the 15th mass killing in the country this year, comes just two weeks after a former stu dent killed three children and three adults at a Chris tian elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee, about 160 miles to the south. That stateÂ’s governor and his wife also had friends killed in that shooting. In Louisville, the chief identied the shooter as 25-year-old Connor Stur geon, who she said was lives treaming during the attack. “ThatÂ’s tragic to know that that incident was out there and captured,” she said. Meta, the company that owns Facebook and Insta gram, said in a statement that it had “quickly removed the livestream of this tragic incident this morning.” Nine people, including two police ofcers, were treated for injuries from the shoot ing, University of Louis ville Hospital spokeswoman Heather Fountaine said in an email. One of the ofcers, 26-year-old Nickolas Wilt, graduated from the police academy on March 31. He was in critical condition af ter being shot in the head and having surgery, the police chief said. At least three pa tients had been discharged. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said he lost one of his closest friends in the shooting – Tommy Elliott – in the building not far from the minor league ballpark Louisville Slugger Field and Waterfront Park. “Tommy Elliott helped me build my law career, helped me become governor, gave me advice on being a good dad,” said Beshear, his voice shaking with emo tion. “HeÂ’s one of the peo ple I talked to most in the world, and very rarely were we talking about my job. He was an incredible friend.” Also killed in the shooting were Josh Barrick, Jim Tutt and Juliana Farmer, police said. “These are irreplaceable, amazing individuals that a terrible act of violence tore from all of us,” the governor said. It was the second time that Beshear was personally touched by a mass tragedy since becoming governor. In late 2021, one of the towns devastated by torna does that tore through Ken tucky was Dawson Springs, the hometown of BeshearÂ’s father, former two-term Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear. Andy Beshear frequently visited Dawson Springs as a boy and has talked emotionally about his fatherÂ’s hometown. Beshear spoke as the inves tigation in Louisville con tinued and police searched for a motive. Crime scene investigators could be seen marking and photographing numerous bullet holes in the windows near the bankÂ’s front door. As part of the investiga tion, police descended on the neighborhood where the suspect lived, about 5 miles south of the downtown shoot ing. The street was blocked as federal and local ofcers talked to residents. One home was cordoned off with caution tape. Kami Cooper, who lives in the neighbor hood, said she didnÂ’t recall ever meeting the suspect but said itÂ’s an unnerving feeling to have lived on the same street as someone who could do such a thing. “IÂ’m almost speechless. You see it on the news but not at home,” Cooper said. “ItÂ’s unbelievable, it could happen here, somebody on my street.” A man who ed the build ing during the shooting told WHAS-TV that the shooter opened re with a long rie in a conference room in the back of the buildingÂ’s rst oor. Michael Clevenger / Courier Journal Multiple agencies arrive Monday at a building after a shooting took place in Louisville, Ky.Justice Dept. appeals Texas abortion pill order By PAUL J. WEBER Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas — The Justice Department on Monday appealed a Tex as court ruling that would halt approval of the most commonly used method of abortion in the U.S., calling the decision “extraordinary and unprecedented.” The request to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap peals was led just days after conicting court rul ings over the legality of the abortion medication mifepristone put in doubt access to the drug that has been widely available for more than 20 years. U.S. District Judge Mat thew Kacsmaryk, an ap pointee of Donald Trump, issued his decision Friday but ruled it would not take effect for seven days. The Biden administration in its ling with the New Orle ans-based appellate court said the Texas “courtÂ’s ex traordinary and unprece dented order should” remain on hold while it appeals. “If allowed to take effect, the courtÂ’s order would thwart FDAÂ’s scientic judgment and severely harm women, particularly those for whom mifepris tone is a medical or prac tical necessity,” the Justice Department wrote. KacsmarykÂ’s decision came at nearly the same time a separate federal judge in the state of Wash ington directed U.S. au thorities not to make any changes that would restrict access to the drug in at least 17 states where Dem ocrats had sued. The Food and Drug Ad ministration approved the use of mifepristone in 2000. The whiplash of the con icting decisions is likely to put the issue on an ac celerated path to the Su preme Court. r r n n  r n n r n  r n r n n r n r n   r n n n n n n n n   r  r rr rr    r  €‚ n n  r n n r  n r ƒ    r r  r r   „ Â…   †  n n r * S e e S e n i c a A i r f o r c o m p l e t e d e t a i l s .

A8 Tuesday, April 11, 2023 Citrus County ChroniclePentagon: Leaked documents a ‘very seriousÂ’ risk By TARA COPP and LOLITA C. BALDOR Associated Press WASHINGTON — The online leaks of scores of highly classied documents about the Ukraine war pres ent a “very serious” risk to national security, and senior leaders are quickly taking steps to mitigate the dam age, a top Pentagon spokes man said Monday. Chris Meagher, assistant to the secretary of defense for public affairs, told re porters that Defense Sec retary Lloyd Austin rst became aware on Thursday that a number of classied brieng slides detailing the U.S. military efforts in the Ukraine war and intelli gence involving other na tions were leaked. In the days since Austin was notied, he has reached out to allies, held daily meetings to assess damage and set up a group not only to assess the scope of the information lost but review who has access to those briengs. The department is looking closely at “how this type of information is distributed and to whom,” Meagher said, but would not say if steps had already been taken to tighten con trol over who can access it. At the State Department, spokesman Vedant Patel told reporters that U.S. of cials “are engaging with allies and partners at high levels over this, including to reassure them of our com mitment to safeguarding in telligence and the delity of securing our partnerships.” He and Meagher declined to provide specics, includ ing about the expanse of the release, how it happened and to which country lead ers the U.S. has spoken. Pa tel added that there is “no question” the documentsÂ’ release present a risk to na tional security. Investigators who special ize in tracking social media, including at the journalism organization Bellingcat, say the documents may have been circulating for months in private internet chats on the Discord discussion plat form. Asked if the Penta gon has contacted Discord, Meagher referred questions to the Justice Department, which has opened a crim inal investigation into the leaks. The slides, which even tually were distributed on more mainstream sites such as Twitter, detail U.S. train ing and equipment sched ules to support Ukraine, assessments of losses, what the U.S. is monitoring on key allies and strategic part ners, and what moves Rus sia may be taking to under mine those relationships. While the Pentagon has been careful not to authen ticate the information con tained in any specic docu ment, overall “they present a very serious risk to nation al security and have the po tential to spread disinforma tion,” said Meagher. “WeÂ’re being very careful and watching where this is be ing posted and amplied.” The documents are labeled secret and top secret and in some cases resemble rou tine updates that the U.S. militaryÂ’s Joint Staff would produce daily but not dis tribute publicly. AP A local resident runs past the damaged houses in Bakhmut, the site of heavy battles with Russian troops in the Donetsk region, Ukraine, on Sunday.Black lawmaker who was expelled to return to Tennessee House By JONATHAN MATTISE and TRAVIS LOLLER Associated Press NASHVILLE, Tenn. — One of the two Black Dem ocrats who were expelled last week from the GOP-led Tennessee House was rein stated Monday after Nash villeÂ’s governing council voted to send him straight back to the Legislature. The unanimous vote by the Nashville Metropolitan Council took only a few minutes to restore Rep. Justin Jones to ofce just four days after Republicans stripped him of his seat. Moments later, Jones marched to the Capitol sev eral blocks away. He took the oath of ofce on the steps and entered the build ing while supporters sang “This Little Light of Mine.” A loud round of applause erupted as Jones walked into the chamber with Democrat ic Rep. Gloria Johnson, who was also targeted for expul sion, but spared by one vote. “I want to welcome the people back to the peopleÂ’s House. I want welcome de mocracy back to the peopleÂ’s House,” Jones said in his rst statement on the House oor. Republicans banished the two lawmakers over their role in a gun-control protest on the House oor in the af termath of a deadly school shooting. The other lawmaker, Jus tin Pearson, could be re appointed Wednesday at a Wednesday of the Shelby County Commission. The expulsions on Thurs day made Tennessee a new front in the battle for the fu ture of American democra cy and propelled the ousted lawmakers into the national spotlight.China military ‘ready to fightÂ’ after drills near Taiwan By HUIZHONG WU Associated Press TAIPEI, Taiwan — Chi naÂ’s military declared Mon day it is “ready to ght” after completing three days of large-scale combat ex ercises around Taiwan that simulated sealing off the island in response to the Taiwanese presidentÂ’s trip to the U.S. last week. The “combat readiness patrols” named Joint Sword were meant as a warning to self-governing Taiwan, which China claims as its own, ChinaÂ’s military said earlier. “The theaterÂ’s troops are ready to ght at all times and can ght at any time to resolutely smash any form of ‘Taiwan independenceÂ’ and foreign interference at tempts,” it said Monday. The exercises were similar to ones conducted by China last August, when it launched missile strikes on targets in the seas around Taiwan in retaliation for then-Speaker Nancy PelosiÂ’s visit to Tai wan, but have been smaller and less disruptive. Military experts say the exercises serve both as in timidation and as an oppor tunity for Chinese troops to practice sealing off Taiwan by blocking sea and air trafc, an important strate gic option the Chinese mil itary might pursue in the event it uses military force to take Taiwan. The Chinese actions fol low President Tsai Ing-wenÂ’s delicate mission to shore up TaiwanÂ’s dwin dling diplomatic alliances in Central America and boost its U.S. support, a trip capped with a sensitive meeting with U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in California. A U.S. con gressional delegation also met with Tsai over the weekend in Taiwan after she returned. China responded imme diately to the McCarthy meeting by imposing a travel ban and nancial sanctions against those as sociated with TsaiÂ’s U.S. trip and with increased mil itary activity through the weekend. “China wants to use any increase of diplomatic in teractions between the U.S. and Taiwan as an excuse to train its military,” said Kuo Yu-jen, a defense studies expert and director of the Institute for National Poli cy Research in Taiwan. Beijing says contact be tween foreign ofcials and the islandÂ’s democratic government encourages Taiwanese who want formal independence, a step Chi naÂ’s ruling Communist Par ty says would lead to war. The sides split in 1949 after a civil war, and the Commu nist Party says the island is obliged to rejoin the main land, by force if necessary. rn  Â r n SALEHOURS : Mon Fr i:8-7Sat:8:30 -5www.nicknicholasford.com 352-726-1231 Hw y. 44 W. , In ve rn ess Michelle Russo -F iorentino SalesStaff Michellehas been wi th Ni ck NicholasFord forover 16years.

Citrus County Chronicle Tuesday, April 11, 2023 A9 N o one has opposed having a local, affordable Veterans Village assisted living facil-ity for vets and their spous-es. In the nearly 10 years since the idea was rst oated, though, little prog-ress has been seen and few updates have been given by the Veterans Village board. Frustration abounds. However, there’s a reset in the works, along with high hopes for progress and a resolution. A little background: the proposed assisted living facility is to be located on acreage owned by Citrus County near the current Veterans Clinic in Lecanto. The county commission, in a show of support, leased the property to the Veterans Village board at $1 per year. In another show of support, the Citrus County Hospital Board gave the Veterans Village board $2.5 million toward facility design and construction. The hospital board owns, on behalf of the public, the former Citrus Memorial Hospital and afliated properties. It leased them to for-pro t Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), and uses proceeds of the lease to fund local health-related projects. Things were looking positive for a public-private partnership to create Veter-ans Village. However, the COVID pandemic’s arriv-al three years ago was a major disruptor. Everything stopped for a time. Then the Veterans Village board was unable to consummate funding plans because builders refused to commit to a price in the volatile construction market. Making matters worse, communication with the project’s supporters and the public was sparse, creating uncertainty. We have long urged Veterans Village lead-ers to communicate better to their community support-ers, as well as to the veteran community. Now the Citrus County Hospital Board has provid-ed the kick needed to reset things. It voted recently to create a new memo-randum of understanding with the Veterans Village board, good to the end of the year, and asked for the $2.5 million in public funds back, to be kept aside for this project if things work out. It also pledged another $1 million as an incentive to move the project forward to completion. Veterans Village board ofcers have expressed their commitment to seeing the assisted living facility built. There is no question it is needed, and the need is only going to grow. The Veter-ans Village leaders are in a position to move forward. We encourage them to do so, and to provide timely updates because of high community interest in the project’s completion. We support the Veterans Village concept and hope the players can gure out how to make it a reality. Action is needed now. Progress must be clear before formal fundraising begins, which will have to happen soon. The project needs strong leaders who will communicate well with community partners and the public. V irtually every teenager in America is online. That’s a good thing – just ask the teens. A new survey from Pew Research Center shows that most teens say social media strengthens their friend-ships, engages their creative side, and con-nects them with support. But as our nation debates how to make online experienc-es healthier for young people, those bene ts are being overlooked and a concerning wave of legislation threatens to prevent teens from using social media altogether. Panic over teens using new types of media is an old story. In the 1980s, activist parents orga-nized to shut down local arcade rooms over concerns about kids’ health. In the 1990s, the country turned its attention to the dan-gers of video games. Now, with the bene t of hindsight, it’s clear that arcades and “Mortal Kom-bat” never posed an inherent risk to teen health. But as with all activities, there was such a thing as problematic use. The same can be said of teenagers’ experiences on social media. What we’ve learned from countless studies over the last several years is while a majority of teens feel supported through the connections they build online, some teenagers fall into a cycle of harmful use. It’s essential to have a thoughtful na-tional conversation about how to support and protect those minors who struggle with the overuse or misuse of social media. But legislators are drawing the wrong conclusions about how to protect teens in the digital world. A new urry of legislation threatens to ban kids entirely from social media. Introduced in Congress and in several states, these bills ignore the bene ts that social media can provide. The American Psychological Association, for example, notes that young people form and maintain friendships online and that social media can afford opportunities to interact with a more diverse peer group. Other research shows kids who use texting and social media over TV and video games bene t from more physical activity, less family con ict and fewer sleep problems. While banning all teens from social media has obvious draw-backs, another collection of bills monitoring and chaperoning kids’ behavior online doesn’t fare much better. The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), for example, is a well-intentioned effort to protect kids, but in practice, it would make it harder for millions of teens to access the internet and threaten the pri-vacy of everyone online, adults included. KOSA, discussed at a Senate hearing last month, details new methods for increased parental surveillance of children and would require websites and companies to change settings for people 16 and under. One of the biggest problems with propos-als like KOSA is that requiring social media to offer separate settings and services for teens ef-fectively forces online platforms to ID everyone. To comply with the law, digital rights groups have raised the alarm that social media sites would need to collect and store a host of personal in-formation, with profound privacy implications. Then there’s the effect KOSA would have on kids seeking in-formation online. At a time when more schools and libraries are restricting access to information on gender and sexual identity and health resources, online resources are often the last and only source of help. Parental monitoring can and should be done responsibly, but for older children and especially for those in abusive situations at home, KOSA’s restrictions would be invasive and risk put-ting them in even more danger. By ramping up blanket restric-tions and surveillance online, KOSA threatens to jeopardize the privacy and safety of vulner-able young people. Dozens of civil rights groups and LGBTQ+ advocacy organi-zations agree, including Advo-cates for Youth, the American Civil Liberties Union, The Human Traf cking Prevention Project, and the LGBT Technol-ogy Partnership. In fact, more than 90 civil rights organizations urged Congress to rethink KOSA and the harm it would cause to children and adults in multiple open letters. There is a right way to create a healthier world for kids online. Just as we would help young people navigate situations in the physical world, it’s our job to help kids navigate the internet safely and responsibly in the same way. Creating a safer inter-net for children requires inten-tional work to educate, supervise and safeguard their online expe-rience without depriving them of the critical bene ts that internet access can bring. Lawmakers can and should protect everyone on the internet by cracking down on harmful actors and establishing safe-guards, regardless of age without affecting our rights to privacy or ability to seek safe and trusted spaces online.

Interest rates (Previous and change gures reect current contract.)Stocks end mixed amid rate hike expectations By STAN CHOE Associated Press NEW YORK — Stocks were mixed Monday in their rst trading after a re port heightened speculation the Federal Reserve may tap the brakes a little harder on nancial markets and the economy. The S&P 500 rose 4.09 points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,109.11. It did not trade on Friday, when data showing a resilient U.S. jobs market heightened expectations the Fed would hike interest rates again at its next meet ing. Big Tech stocks fell more than the rest of the market, which helped drag the Nas daq composite down 3.60, or less than 0.1 percent, to 12,084.36. It was down as much as 1.4 percent earlier in the day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was steadier, and it rose 101.23, or 0.3 percent, to 33,586.52. Higher rates tend to hit tech and other high-growth stocks the hardest, and Apple and Microsoft were the two heaviest drags on the S&P 500. Apple fell 1.6 percent, and Microsoft slipped 0.8. percent. Tesla also dipped 0.3 per cent after paring a sharper, early loss. The company cut prices on its entire U.S. model lineup in an apparent attempt to to entice buyers amid rising interest rates, which make auto loans more expensive. The Fed has raised interest rates at a furious pace over the last year in hopes of undercutting high ination. Higher rates can do that, but only by bluntly slowing the entire economy in one fell swoop. That raises the risk of a recession in the future and drags down prices for stocks, bonds and other in vestments. Traders are betting on a roughly 70 percent proba bility the Fed will raise its key overnight interest rate in May by 0.25 percentage points to a range of 5 per cent to 5.25 percent, ac cording to data from CME Group. A day before Fri day’s jobs report, they saw a roughly coin ip’s chance that the Fed would stand pat at its next meeting. The Fed has jacked up rates at every one of its meetings over the past year, forcing them up from near zero at the start of 2022. While the jobs report raised expectations for another rate hike, it also showed a steady-enough la bor market to bolster hopes among some investors that the Fed could pull off what’s called a “soft landing” for the economy. That’s where the Fed succeeds in raising rates just enough to stie ination but not so much as to create a severe recession. Besides Friday’s jobs re port showing a slowdown in growth for workers’ wages, which could take some pressure off ination, a report from earlier last week showed employers are advertising fewer job open ings. “This is encouraging be cause policymakers need to limit labor demand for now so that supply can catch up, and a decline in job open ings is the most painless way to achieve this,” David Mericle and other Goldman Sachs economists wrote in a report. Hopes for a soft land ing helped support stocks whose prots tend to be most closely tied with the strength of the economy. Stocks of industrial compa nies in the S&P 500 rose 0.9 percent, for example, most among the 11 sectors that make up the index. That in cluded a 3 percent gain for Caterpillar. Energy compa nies and raw-material pro ducers also rose. The overriding bet within the bond market, though, seems to be that the econ omy will weaken so much that the Federal Reserve will have to cut rates as soon as this summer. Lower rates can relax the pressure on the economy and nancial markets, but it also could give ination more room to run. The Fed has so far said it sees no rate cuts happening this year. Another report due on Wednesday could have a bigger impact on expec tations for the Fed. That’s when the U.S. government will release its latest month ly update on prices across the economy at the consum er level. Economists expect it to show ination slowed last month but remains well above the Fed’s target. Also this week, earnings reporting season will begin for the biggest U.S. com panies. Delta Air Lines, JPMorgan Chase and Unit edHealth Group will be among the rst S&P 500 companies to tell investors how much prot they made during the rst three months of the year. Expectations are low, and analysts are forecasting the sharpest drop in earnings per share for S&P 500 com panies since the pandemic pummeled the economy in the spring of 2020. In markets abroad, stocks were mixed across Asia. Japan’s Nikkei 225 added 0.4 percent after the new governor of Japan’s central bank signaled he plans no drastic changes in its ul tra-low interest rate policy. In Europe, many stock markets were closed. In the bond market, Trea sury yields were relatively stable after rising Friday in an abbreviated trading session following the U.S. jobs report. The 10-year yield, which helps set rates for mortgages and other im portant loans, ticked up to 3.42 percent from 3.41 per cent Friday.AP sources: EPA car rule to push huge increase in EV sales By TOM KRISHER and MATTHEW DALY Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Biden administration will propose strict new auto mobile pollution limits this week that would require at least 54 percent of new vehicles sold in the U.S. to be electric by 2030 and as many as two of every three by 2032, according to in dustry and environmental ofcials briefed on the plan. The proposed regulation, to be released Wednesday by the Environmental Pro tection Agency, would set greenhouse gas emissions limits for the 2027 through 2032 model years for pas senger vehicles that would be more even stricter than goals the auto industry agreed to in 2021. The EPA will offer a range of options that the agen cy can select after a public comment period, the of cials said. They asked not to be identied because the proposal hasn’t been made public. The proposed regu lation isn’t expected to be come nal until next year. Environmental groups are applauding the ambitious numbers, which were rst reported over the weekend by The New York Times. But the plan is likely to get strong pushback from the auto industry, which already pledged in August 2021 to make EVs half of U.S. new car sales by 2030 as it moves toward a histo ry-making transition away from internal combustion engines. Even the low end of the EPA’s 2030 range is 4 per centage points higher than the 2021 goal, which came after strong pressure from President Joe Biden. An executive order signed by Biden set a target for half of all new vehicles sold in 2030 to be zero-emissions vehicles, including battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric or fuel cell electric vehicles. Biden also wants auto makers to raise gas mileage and cut tailpipe pollution between now and model year 2026. That would mark a signicant step toward meeting his pledge to cut America’s planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 as he pushes a once-almost-unthinkable shift from gasoline-powered engines to battery-powered vehicles. With electric vehicles ac counting for just 7.2 percent of U.S. vehicle sales in the rst quarter of this year, the industry has a long way to go to even approach the ad ministration’s targets. How ever, the percentage of EV sales is growing. Last year it was 5.8 percent of new vehicles sales. The EPA declined to offer details ahead of Wednes day’s announcement, but said in a statement that as directed by Biden’s order, it is “developing new stan dards that will ... acceler ate the transition to a ze ro-emissions transportation future, protecting people and the planet.’’ The EPA tailpipe pollution limits don’t actually require a specic number of electric vehicles to be sold every year, but instead mandate limits on greenhouse gas emissions. That amounts to roughly the same thing, ac cording to agency calcula tions of the number of EVs that likely would be needed to comply with the stricter pollution limits. The auto industry likely will need to sell a lot more EVs to meet the require ments. It’s already pushed up the mileage of gasoline vehicles with more efcient engines and transmissions, reducing weight and oth er measures. Many in the industry say they’d rather spend investment dollars developing new EVs that are likely to dominate the industry in coming years. Suggesting a brake on the optimistic idea of vast emission improvements simply through rule mak ing, however, the Alliance for Automotive Innovation, a trade association that in cludes most automakers, said, “Regulatory mandates alone will not address the conditions that will deter mine the ultimate success of the EV transition.” Supportive policies such as tax credits for EV purchases and funding of a nation wide network of charging stations are needed, the al liance said in a statement before the EPA rule was announced. EVs have to be come more affordable, parts and domestic critical miner al supply chains have to be set up and utility generating capacity must be addressed, the statement said. Transportation is the sin gle largest source of carbon emissions in the U.S., but it is followed closely by elec tricity generation. Environmental groups say stricter tailpipe pollution standards are needed, and provisions of the sweep ing Ination Reduction Act passed last year will help reach the tougher require ments. “Tailpipe emissions pollute the air we breathe and worsen severe weather,” Fred Krupp, president of the Environmental Defense Fund, said in a statement. The Ination Reduction Act, a climate and health care law passed with only Democratic votes, has tax credits for electric vehicle manufacturing and for pur chases of new and used EVs. At present, many new EVs manufactured in North America are eligible for a $7,500 tax credit, while used EVs can get up to $4,000. However, there are price and purchaser income limits that make some vehicles in eligible. And starting April 18, new requirements by the Treasury Department will result in fewer new electric vehicles qualifying for a full $7,500 federal tax credit.

Citrus County Chronicle Tuesday, April 11, 2023 A11 H & L CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLEMaintenance is key with dental implantsI have had many patients come to me for issues regarding the implants they have had done at another dentist. In many of the situations, they have had no maintenance care on the implants and the teeth attached to them. I thought I would dedicate this column to discussing what maintenance is nec-essary for the most popular uses of dental implants. For starters, it is important to know that the mainte-nance interval of most den-tal implants is six months. There are situations where every three or 12 months is recommended. The most common use of dental implants is the replacement of one or a few teeth. In these cases, home care should entail regular brushing and ossing along with professional cleanings whenever your dentist and hygienist recommend. Implants are also used to replace a full arch of teeth – upper, lower, or both. In these cases, the teeth are most often screwed into the implants. Your hygienist will show you how to oss under the teeth and around the implants. This should be done daily. It is customary to have this full arch of teeth removed annually by your dentist so your hygienist has better access to the implants. You will usually be seen every six months, at which point your hygienist will clean around the teeth and implants without removing them. Of course, this schedule will be tailored to your specic needs. It should be noted that this and the next category of patients are the most likely to not engage in main-tenance after being restored. Another very common use of dental implants is to secure a lower denture. In these situations, two implants are placed along with some sort of retentive device. The implant is below the gums and the re-tentive device is screwed into the implant – this is what you see in your mouth. It is important to care for those posts daily and see your hygienist as recommend-ed. Additionally, the retentive portion of the system that is in the denture also needs to be cleaned regularly. This portion also needs replacing periodically. My intention with the column was to let you know that implants, and their associ-ated parts, need regular care. I often see someone with a problem that could have been avoided with simple maintenance. If you have dental implants and have not seen your dentist or hygienist in 12 months, take a moment to give them a call right now. There are so many issues that can be avoided with simple maintenance. I hope this has helped those of you who simply didn’t know that ongoing care was necessary for dental implants.

Suncoast Blvd., Homosassa, FL 34446 or email them to him at DrVascimini@MasterpieceDentalStudio.com. to sleep better and improve heart health Dr. Frank VasciminiSound Bites By FAMILY FEATURES There’s more to maintaining a healthy heart than just eating right and exercising regularly. While these practices play an important role in both cardiovascular and overall health and well-being, getting a good night’s sleep is also key. However, more than 1 in 3 adults in the United States are not getting the recommended 7-9 hours of sleep per night, according to the Centers for Dis ease Control and Prevention (CDC). In addition to increasing risk for car diovascular conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attack and stroke, lack of sleep may also put people at risk of depression, cognitive decline, diabetes and obesity. “We know that people who get ade quate sleep manage other health fac tors better as well, such as weight, blood sugar and blood pressure,” said Dr. Donald M. Lloyd-Jones, past volunteer president of the American Heart Association and chair of the de partment of preventive medicine, the Eileen M. Foell Professor of Heart Research and professor of preventive medicine, medicine and pediatrics at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. “The American Heart Association added sleep to the list of factors that support optimal cardiovascular health. We call these Life’s Essential 8, and they include: eating a healthy diet, not smoking or vaping, being physically active and getting adequate sleep along with con trolling your blood pressure and main taining healthy levels of cholesterol and lipids, healthy blood sugar levels and a healthy weight.” Education about healthy heart habits from the American Heart Association is nationally supported by Elevance Health Foundation. Some practices to improve sleep health and impact heart health include: Studies show most adults are not getting enough restLaylaBird / Getty Images Try logging off electronic devices at least one hour before bedtime and use the “do not disturb” function to avoid waking up to your phone throughout the night.Avoid food and beverage close to bedtimeTo help reduce sleep disruptions caused by food, avoid late dinners and minimize fatty and spicy foods. Similarly, keep an eye on caffeine intake and avoid it later in the day.Exercise regularlyPhysical activity can have a notice able impact on overall health and wellness but can also make it easier to sleep at night. However, exercis ing too close to bedtime may hinder your body’s ability to settle; aim to have your workout complete at least four hours before bed.Create a comfortable spaceThe ideal space for sleeping is dark, quiet and a comfortable tem perature, typically around 65 de grees depending on the individual. Use room-darkening curtains or a sleep mask to block light and ear plugs, a fan or a white noise machine to help drown out distracting noises. Remember, using your bed only for sleep and sex can help establish a strong mental association between your bed and sleep.Establish a bedtime routineGetting a good night’s rest often requires getting into a routine. Start by setting an alarm to indicate it’s time to start winding down. Rather than heading straight to bed, create a to-do list for the following day and knock out a few small chores. Then consider implementing a calming activity like meditating, journaling or reading (not on a tablet or smartphone) before drifting off to sleep. Also set an alarm to wake each morning, even on weekends, and avoid hitting the snooze button.Avoid technology before bedThe bright light of televisions, computers and smartphones can mess with your Circadian rhythm and keep you alert when you should be winding down. Try logging off electronic devices at least one hour before bedtime and use the “do not disturb” function to avoid waking up to your phone throughout the night. Better yet, charge devices away from your bed or in another room entirely. Find more tips to create healthy sleep habits at Heart.org. New cancer test for everyoneI recently saw a 53-year-old gentleman. He works full time and he has been very healthy. He decided to get a blood test to detect early cancer. He never had cancer. No such test is FDA approved, but an experimental test is available. This is called the Gal-leri Multi Cancer Early Detection Test. It is a simple blood test that must be pre-scribed by a med-ical doctor. His test result came back as positive for possible lymphoid malignan-cy and so he was referred to me. My patient was later found to have non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which can be curable. He is undergoing chemotherapy and is tolerating it well. Cancer cells have a nucleus in the center that contains DNA. As cancer cells go through the cycles, it sheds some DNA in the blood. New technology can detect such DNA. This is widely available for patients with cancer and is also known as liquid biopsy. I do that routinely in my ofce in Lecanto. Lots of research is being done about this test in patients without cancer or in the general popula-tion. One such trial was published in the Annals of Oncology on Sept. 21. It showed that the test is negative in people without cancer most of the time (99.5 percent). It picked up cancer in half the patients with cancer. If cancer stage is higher, it is more sensitive and it is less sensitive in patients with early-stage cancer. This is because as cancer grows, it sheds more DNA in the blood and so the test has a higher chance of picking it up. This test can pick up almost 50 different cancers. There are many areas of concern. This test diagnoses many common cancers, but diagno-sis is more in later stages than earlier stages. Still, most of these patients do not have symptoms. Also, false-positive tests can be a big problem; i.e., a patient is told that there is cancer, but a workup does not nd cancer. At the same time, it can help detect unsus-pected cancer, as in my patient. The test needs to be independently validated. There is an urgent need for a comprehensive study to improve the test’s accu-racy and sensitivity. Additional research is needed to nd a standard marker for all types of cancer DNA, and technologies must improve to allow for the precision that low concentrations of ctDNA in a sample provide. Also, the test is expensive, and most insurance providers do not cover it. Dr. Sunil Gandhi is a hematologist and oncologist.

S CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLE Section B TUESDAY, APRIL 11 , 2023 Rays top Red Sox 1-0, extend season-opening win streak to 10 By MARK DIDTLER Associated Press ST. PETERSBURG — The Tampa Bay Rays became the rst major league team since the 1987 Milwaukee Brewers to open the season with 10 straight wins, get ting a solo homer from Brandon Lowe in the eighth inning to beat the Boston Red Sox 1-0 on Mon day night. The 1987 Brewers and 1982 Atlanta Braves share the major league record for the best start to a season at 13-0. The Rays are the seventh team since 1901 to begin the year with 10 or more wins. “It’s cool to be part of it,” right elder Luke Raley said, Lowe homered for the third straight game, sending a 3-2, one-out pitch from Chris Martin (0-1) into the right-eld stands. Lowe has nine RBIs over his last three games. “This is the rst night where it’s kind of quiet offensively,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said. “I kind of felt like at any given moment somebody could knock one out of the ballpark. Probably the right guy with Brandon.” Tampa Bay has outscored its op ponents 76-18. In a matchup of the AL’s top two scoring teams, pitching and defense prevailed. This was the Rays’ rst win by fewer than four runs as Tampa Bay fell one short of the 1939 New York Yan kees, the most recent team to win 10 consecutive games by four or more at any point in a season. Tampa Bay opener Jalen Beeks allowed one hit over two innings, and Josh Fleming gave up one hit over the next four. After Garrett Cleavinger worked a perfect sev enth, Colin Poche (1-0) worked out of bases-loaded, two-jam in the eighth by striking out Rafael Devers. “He made some good pitches and got Rae out,” Red Sox manag er Alex Cora said. “They pitched well, we pitched well. There was good defense. Obviously we Chris O’Meara / AP Tampa Bay Rays’ Brandon Lowe connects for a solo home run off Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Chris Martin during the eighth inning of Monday’s game.Eight headed to states By MATT PFIFFNER Sports editor The unofcial list of boys weightlifting state qualiers has been released and all three Citrus County teams will be represented in the Class 2A nals Saturday at the RP Funding Center in Lake land. A trio of lifters from the county earned automatic bids after win ning regional titles last week in St. Augustine. Five others earned at-large bids for having one of the best 16 weight totals at regionals at their weight class after the four regional champs were decided. The regional champs were all in the Olympic division, which com bines the lift totals in the snatch and clean and jerk. Trevor Rueck of Lecanto claimed the regional title at 139 pounds with his total of 415 pounds, which is fourth-best in 2A entering the state meet. Colton McNeely of Citrus earned the 219-pound regional title in Olympic with his total of 505, which is fth-best going into the state nals. The third regional champ from the county was Junior Reed of Crystal River at 238 with his 430 total. Earning at-large state berths in the Olympic division based on their regional totals were James Greene of Lecanto at 139, Karl Robinson of Crystal River at 139, Kai Deiderich of Citrus at 169 and Alex Naugler of Citrus at 199. Just missing out on trips to state were Tim Gray of Crystal River at 219 by 10 pounds and Burke Malmberg of Lecanto in the un limited class by ve pounds. Malmberg did, however, earn an at-large state berth in the tra ditional division, which combines the lifts in clean and jerk and bench press. Joining him in the traditional di vision at state will be teammates Rueck and Greene at 139 and Cit rus’ McNeely at 219. Nearly making the cut but fall ing just short were Carl Wilson of Citrus at 183 by ve pounds, Naugler at 199 by 15 pounds and Reed at 238 by 15 pounds. The Class 2A lightweights (rst ve weight classes) will compete Saturday in Lakeland at 1 p.m., while the heavyweights (last ve weight classes) take the stage starting at 6 p.m. So, in the 1 p.m. time slot, Rueck, Greene, Robinson and Deiderich will be lifting. Naugler, McNeely, Reed and Malmberg will compete in the 6 p.m. time slot.

Kat Kupcho is a 16-year-old ju nior in the LSA program at Lecan to High School. She played right wing for the 14/16U Wolverines, who ended the season with an 11-3 record. David Kupcho, 12, is in seventh grade at Crystal River Middle School. He played center for the 12U Swamp Goons, who went un defeated this season. David scored a hat trick in the championship game, leading his team to a 5-1 victory. LEFT: Kat Kupcho played right wing for the 14 / 16U Wolver ines, who ended the hockey season with an 11-3 record.

Special to the Chronicle Play-in tournament starts Tuesday, giving 8 teams new life By TIM REYNOLDS AP Basketball Writer MIAMI — Getting to the play-in tournament probably wasn’t the goal of any team when training camps opened back in September. It does, however, beat the al ternative. There are 12 teams with play off spots right now, 10 teams whose seasons are over – and eight teams with a second chance. The play-in tournament starts Tuesday, with Atlanta go ing to Miami and Minnesota visiting the Los Angeles Lak ers, with the winners going to the postseason. Oklahoma City goes to New Orleans and Chicago visits To ronto on Wednesday for elimi nation games; loser goes home, winner moves on to face the loser of Tuesday’s games in an other win-or-go-home contest. “You have to embrace this new experience,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “To the old heads in our locker room, each of us have experienced long NBA careers and not have had this opportunity. I think it’s been great for the league. How harrowing this has been, the last six, eight weeks for 16 teams in the West and the East. It’s just been great for competition and overall. it’s been great for the league.” The NBA added it to boost end-of-season excitement, give more teams playoff hope – and discourage tanking. Dallas still had a chance at the play-in until its 81st game of the season on Friday, when it held several ro tation players out and lost. The NBA is investigating the Mav ericks’ motivations there and if Dallas lost to protect its draft odds. The Heat were the No. 1 seed in the East last season and now need the play-in just to get back to the playoffs. But they’re also playing perhaps their best bas ketball of the season – just like the Lakers, who went a West-best 16-7 after the All-Star break. “We put ourselves in a posi tion where we can move on,” Lakers star LeBron James said. “That’s all we could ask for, to put ourselves in a position to be able to move on. We had obvi ously a very, very slow start, starting 2-10 ... to know where we are today, we can be happy about that, but not satised.” No team that has used the play-in tournament – Portland in 2020 in the bubble under a slightly different format; Bos ton, Washington, the Lakers and Memphis in 2021; Brooklyn, Atlanta, Minnesota and New Orleans last year – to reach the actual playoffs has ever won a rst-round series. But it still provides hope, and perhaps a shot in the arm for those who survive and advance. “We’re looking forward to it,” Spoelstra said. “Our guys love competition. And this has high stakes to it. And that’s ultimate ly where you nd out about yourself – when there’s stakes to it, when there’s consequenc es to it.”FormatEven in Year 3 of this format, See RAYS , page B2 See NBA , page B7

Auston Matthews also scored for the Maple Leafs, netting his 40th of the season. Ilya Samson ov made 45 saves. Brandon Montour scored for Florida and tied the franchise record for goals by a defense man in a season with his 16th. Goalie Alex Lyon made 23 saves and lost for the rst time in seven straight starts in place of Sergei Bobrovsky. The Panthers managed to gain a point and moved closer to a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Florida has gone 6-0-1 since losing in Ottawa on March 27. ——— Capitals 5, Islanders 2 WASHINGTON – Ilya Sorokin allowed three goals on the first nine shots he faced behind a sloppy defense, and the New York IslandersÂ’ playoff hopes took a significant hit with a 5-2 loss to the Washington Capitals on Monday night. The Islanders needed only to win out against opponents out of contention to return to then postseason after a one-year absence. After an unin spired effort that lacked the intensity and urgency the situ ation warranted, theyÂ’ll need help to secure one of the two wild cards in the Eastern Con ference with just one game left to play. New York trails Florida by one point in the standings after the Panthers lost in overtime to Toronto. Pittsburgh is one point back but has two games left against the two worst teams in the NHL, Tuesday against Chi cago and Thursday at Colum bus, while the Panthers have one remaining. Dylan Strome, Rasmus San din and Craig Smith scored in the first 13-plus minutes of the game, but Sorokin settled in to make 20 saves. Strome and Tom Wilson each had late empty-netters, and Darcy Kue mper finished with 38 saves. Hudson Fasching and Casey Cizikas scored in the third period for the Islanders.

Connor Hellebuyck made 19 saves in his 12th consecutive start as Winnipeg finished a five-game homestand 4-1-0. The Jets now have 93 points and can clinch the Western ConferenceÂ’s final wild card berth by gaining at least a point in their final two games. Erik Karlsson scored twice for San Jose, giving him 100 points this season. HeÂ’s the first NHL defenseman to reach that mark since the New York Rang ersÂ’ Brian Leetch in 1991-92. James Reimer stopped 27 shots. Senators 3, Hurricanes 2 OTTAWA, Ontario – Claude Gir oux had two goals and an assist to reach 1,000 career points to lead Ottawa. Giroux became the 96th player to achieve the milestone. The 35-year-old entered the game needing two points to hit the momentous marker and took less than one period to make it hap pen. Giroux picked up point 999 with his 33rd goal of the season just after the five-minute mark and number 1,000 came on an assist when he set up Tim Stutzle with under three minutes remain ing in the period. Giroux scored his second of the night midway through the third to give Ottawa a 3-2 lead, and the win, tying his career-high of 34 set in 2017-18. Mads Sogaard saved 27 to ensure the victory. Brett Pesce and Brent Burns scored for Carolina, and Frederik Andersen finished with 29 saves.

The lm, however, is pure fantasy about what might have happened if the bear went on a coke rampage in stead of dying. After its wild trailer went viral, the R-rated pic directed by Elizabeth Banks and starring Keri Russell and OÂ’Shea Jackson Jr. left audiences somewhat divid ed. Some thought it a B-movie de light, others were left cold by the excess. And starting on Friday, via Peacock, you can access it at home to decide for yourself. QKatie Holmes directs and stars in “Rare Objects,” an adaptation of a novel by Kathleen Tessaro about a woman with a traumatic past try ing to rebuild her life starting with a new job at a New York antique shop. Holmes has been working on making this lm since 2016, and her adaptation moves the story from its Depression-era Boston ori gins to contemporary New York. In an interview with Variety, Holmes said she was drawn “to the female friendship and this metaphor of ‘you are more beautiful for having been broken.’” The lm opens in theaters and on demand on Friday. QAlso on demand, on Tuesday, is “Linoleum,” a science ction drama starring Jim Gafgan as a childrenÂ’s television host who dreams of being an astronaut. The lm, which premiered to favorable reviews at South by Southwest last year, turns into fantasy when a sat ellite lands in his backyard and he starts to try to build it into a rocket of his own. Rhea Seehorn co-stars. AP Film Writer Lindsey BahrMUSIC QLetÂ’s just call this Metalli caÂ’s week. On Thursday, the hard rockers have a listening party in movie theaters worldwide for their upcoming 12th studio al bum, “72 Seasons.” The one-night event will feature the new music in surround sound with music videos and exclusive commen tary from the band. The next day the album comes out on vinyl, CD and digital, their rst collec tion of new material since 2016Â’s “HardwiredÂ… To Self-Destruct.” Early singles include “Scream ing Suicide” and “Lux Æterna,” with James Heteld singing “Full speed or nothing.” QNatalie Merchant returns with lush, gorgeous new horn-heavy music on the album “Keep Your Courage,” her rst collection of all-new material in almost 10 years. The album was produced by the former singer of 10,000 Maniacs and features contributions from Celtic folk group Lúnasa, Syrian clarinet player Kinan Azmeh, jazz trombonist Steve Davis and singer Abena Koomson-Davis, who adds joy and warmth to “Come On, Aphrodite.” “For the most part, this is an album about the human heart. I think the pandemic was a great period of solitude and long ing,” Merchant says. “I craved and savored human connection; it was the only thing that really mat tered.” AP Entertainment Writer Mark KennedyTELEVISION QThe half-hour critically praised comedy “Single Drunk Female” returns for its second season on Freeform. Executive produced in part by Jenni Kon ner (“Girls”), it stars Soa BlackDÂ’Elia as a 20-something maga zine writer named Samantha who at the beginning of season one, is sent to rehab after (repeatedly) getting drunk on the job and ulti mately assaulting her boss as heÂ’s attempting to re her. Samantha moves back home to build both a community and new life for her self, even if itÂ’s a life she never pictured. In season two, Samantha is condent and ready to expand her horizons with independence, like nding her own place, and romance. Season two of “Single Drunk Female” debuts Wednesday and the entire season will hit Hulu on Thursday. QFour months after surviving a serious snowplow accident in Ne vada, Jeremy RennerÂ’s four-part series “Rennervations” debuts on Disney+ on Wednesday. The two-time Oscar nominee, who plays Hawkeye in the Marvel Cinemat ic Universe, will repurpose, and refurbish vehicles, to assist local communities. Examples include making a water treatment facility out of a delivery truck and trans forming a tour bus into a mobile music studio. HeÂ’s assisted by celebrity friends including fellow Marvel star Anthony Mackie and Vanessa Hudgens. Renner is so passionate about “Rennervations” that he plans to attend a red carpet on Tuesday in Los Angeles for the showÂ’s premiere. QItÂ’s never too early to teach children about protecting the planet and a new educational se ries coming to Apple TV+ called ”Jane” aims to do just that. “Jane” aims to introduce kids to the ide als and work of primatologist and conservationist, Dr. Jane Goodall. The series is a combo of live ac tion and CGI and stars Ava Lou ise Murchison as 9-year-old Jane Garcia, who is passionate about protecting the environment and saving endangered animals. Us ing her creativity and imagination, Jane takes her best friends David and a chimpanzee named Grey beard on adventures around the globe to help rescue wild animals. “Jane” premieres globally on Fri day on the streaming service. Alicia RancilioVIDEO GAMES QThe 1982 movie “Tron” wasnÂ’t a huge success, but it seems like everyone who did see it became a computer game designer. One such acolyte is Mike Bithell, creator of the award-winning indie games Thomas Was Alone and Subsurface Circular. His Bithell Games studio is behind Tron: Identity, a new cy berpunk adventure from Disney. In an abandoned sector of the Grid thatÂ’s evolved in weird ways, your character is a “detective program” named Query assigned to inves tigate a break-in and robbery. ItÂ’s a dialog-driven mystery broken up by defragging puzzles, and its neon-infused look is bound to ap peal to anyone who grew up on PC games of the 1980s and Â’90s. Plug in Tuesday on Nintendo Switch and PC. Lou Kesten By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Tuesday, April 11, the 101st day of 2023. There are 264 days left in the year. Highlight in history:On April 11, 1968, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law the aCivil Rights Act of 1968, which included the Fair Housing Act, a week after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. On this date:In 1814, Napoleon Bonapar te abdicated as Emperor of the French and was banished to the island of Elba. (Napo leon later escaped from Elba and returned to power in March 1815, until his downfall in the Battle of Waterloo in June 1815.) In 1913, Postmaster General Albert S. Burleson, during a meeting of President Wood row WilsonÂ’s Cabinet, pro posed gradually segregating whites and Blacks who worked for the Railway Mail Service, a policy that went into effect and spread to other agencies. In 1945, during World War II, American soldiers liberated the Nazi concentration camp Buchenwald in Germany. In 1961, former SS officer Adolf Eichmann went on trial in Israel, charged with crimes against humanity for his role in the Nazi Holocaust. (Eich mann was convicted and exe cuted.) In 1970, Apollo 13, with astronauts James A. Lovell, Fred W. Haise and Jack Swi gert, blasted off on its ill-fated mission to the moon. (The mission was aborted when an oxygen tank exploded April 13. The crew splashed down safely four days after the explosion.) In 2020, the number of U.S. deaths from the coronavirus eclipsed ItalyÂ’s for the highest in the world, topping 20,000. Ten years ago: CongressÂ’ most serious gun-control effort in years cleared its first hurdle as the Senate pushed past conservativesÂ’ attempted blockade, rebuffing 68-31 an effort to keep debate from even starting. (However, pro posals for tighter background checks for buyers as well as bans on assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines went down to defeat six days later.) Five years ago: House Speaker Paul Ryan announced that he would retire rather than seek another term in Congress. California Gov. Jerry Brown accepted Presi dent Donald TrumpÂ’s call to send the National Guard to the Mexican border but said the troops would have nothing to do with immigration enforce ment. Pope Francis admitted he made “grave errors” in judgment in ChileÂ’s sex abuse scandal; during a January visit to Chile, Francis had strongly defended Bishop Juan Barros despite accusa tions by victims that Barros had witnessed and ignored their abuse. A military trans port plane crashed just after takeoff in Algeria, killing 257 people in the worst aviation disaster in the history of the North African country. Mitzi Shore, owner of the Los Ange les club the Comedy Store, died at the age of 87. One year ago: The mayor of the Ukrainian port city of Mar iupol said more than 10,000 civilians died in the Russian siege of his city. Philadelphia becomes the first major U.S. city to reinstate its indoor mask mandate after reporting a sharp increase in coronavi rus infections. A jury was selected to hear a libel lawsuit Johnny Depp filed against his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, whom he accused of falsely portraying him as a domestic abuser. TodayÂ’s birthdays: Ethel Kennedy is 95. Actor Joel Grey is 91. Actor Louise Lass er is 84. Pulitzer Prize-win ning columnist Ellen Goodman is 82. Movie writer-director John Milius is 79. Actor Peter Riegert is 76. Movie director Carl Franklin is 74. Actor Bill Irwin is 73. Country sing er-songwriter Jim Lauderdale is 66. Songwriter-producer Daryl Simmons is 66. Rock musician Nigel Pulsford (Bush) is 62. Actor Lucky Vanous is 62. Country singer Steve Azar is 59. Singer Lisa Stansfield is 57.

Citrus County Chronicle Tuesday, April 11, 2023 B5A & P Bargains find him, but joy is fleetingDEAR AMY: My family is upper-middle class. I love to dine out and at my instiga-tion, we do it often. I am also always seeking value in whatever I purchase, including restaurant meals. Bargains gravitate to me. Our most recent meal at a ne restaurant came about when the restaurant was offering a weekday pro-motion of a 10-ounce strip steak with side dish for $19.95, considerably less than the normal price. My wife ordered a 9-ounce bleu let, which was $40.75 – one of the most expensive items on the menu. When the check came, she said she was waiting to see if I would have a heart at-tack, indicating that she knew her dish was pricey. My wife worked as an accountant before we were married. I am semi-retired and manage our investments and shop for the family. We do quite well, nancially, but this is a common pattern for us. My wife said that she does not look at prices and that if we are going out to dinner, she is going to or-der what she wants. Although her expensive meals are not going to take food off of our table, it seems like poor form to me. Your take? – Bargain HunterDEAR HUNTER: You derive some very real joy and satisfaction from getting a good deal on a steak. And then, by having a heart attack at your wife’s choices, you deny her the same. My basic take is that she is testing and teasing you. As much of an asset as your bargain hunting can be, this sort of hyper awareness of prices can also be annoying, especially when she’s trying to enjoy a night out. My perspective is that you saved enough on your (discounted) meal for your wife to splurge on hers, making the meal basically a wash, nancially. That was really nice of you!You mention that you manage all the family nances and also “shop for the family.” Is this because you become too uncomfortable if your wife pays full-price for something? If you were able to cede some control, including your wife as a partner in your household decision-making, then she would be less likely to yank your chain when she has the chance. You two obviously need to talk about this. If your wife’s choices make you anx-ious, then you should be honest about your feelings and reactions. If you two decided ahead of time on a reasonable budget for these dinners out, then you should be able to work together when you’re ordering. Being generous toward your partner can feel positively expansive, but you interpret your own generosity as your wife taking from you, and you don’t seem to give her the opportunity to be generous in return. DEAR AMY: After I retired, I had time to go through boxes of personal papers that I had saved. These included letters that current friends and family had written to me over many years. It was fun rereading many of these, but at this point in my life I don’t feel the need to keep them. Instead of throwing them away, I decided that the sender might enjoy reading what they had written decades earlier, so I bun-dled packets of their individual letters off with notes to the effect: “Cleaning house! Here’s a blast from your past! Enjoy!” Now months later, I have not heard back from one person. I’m questioning whether I did something wrong. I know that I would enjoy reading letters I wrote many years ago, but maybe that’s just me. Should I have just destroyed these old letters, instead? – Cleaning in Culver City DEAR CLEANING: This was an extremely thoughtful thing to do. I can imagine that this gesture might have brought up a lot of feelings for the recipients, and I wonder, now that letter-writing seems to be on the decline, how future generations will chron-icle their lives and long friendships. I can’t imagine why people didn’t contact you to acknowledge this effort; I hope you will follow up to ask if they had re-read their letters and enjoyed them as much as you had. Their responses might reveal some complicated emotions. DEAR AMY: The newlywed “Daughter-inlaw in Training” needs to stand her ground with her mother-in-law; politely (as you said), but rmly – even if she does not have her husband’s full support. Sometimes men cannot say no to their mothers, even when they want to. – Been There DEAR BEEN THERE: I’ve noticed this phenomenon. Thank you for pointing it out.
