BATES Chronicle Reporter Citrus County’s unemploy ment rate in March held at 3.8 percent, a drop of 0.3 percentage points compared to the county’s year-ago rate, according to preliminary data released Friday by the Florida Department of Eco nomic Opportunity (FDEO). Citrus County’s labor force in March increased by 642 over the month to 50,664. The number of employed rose by 632 to 48,744 and the number of unemployed increased by 10 to 1,920. For the second consecutive month, Citrus County tied with Highlands and Sumter counties for the highest job less rate in Florida. Monroe County, in the Florida Keys, had the low est at 1.7 percent. Rusty Skinner, Career Source CLM’s chief execu tive ofcer, said that “our em ployment report for March shows that our unemploy ment is low, an overall good sign for our regional economies. Of course, this also cre ates challeng es for area businesses whose product and service demands require additional staff.” Statewide, jobless rates remained unchanged over the month in 44 counties, dropped in 6 and rose slight ly in 17. Over the year, rates dropped in all but two coun ties where they remained the same. Whether over the month or year, when rates rose or dropped it was typ ically no more than 0.1 or 0.2 percentage points. Skinner encouraged em ployers to review their hir ing requirements and ask “can you ll your needs through upskilling some of your current employees? Or, ”have you thought about recruiting your ‘next gener ation’ workforce by engag ing those who will soon be graduating from our local school systems?” Email staff writer Michael D. Bates at mbates@chronicleonline.com.Finding workers remains a problem for some businesses SKINNER Raking together for a cause By NANCY KENNEDY Chronicle Reporter In the area of Crystal River known as Knights Addition, the community park on Northeast Third Street has long been the center of the community. In 1983, the City of Crystal River named it Copeland Community Park after one of the neighborhood’s most beloved citizens, Frederick W. Cope land. Prior to his death in November 2009, Copeland lived his life serving others and serving his community. He would go out every morning with a bucket and a stick with a nail at the end of it, driving around the neighborhood looking for paper and trash to pick up. When he’d see kids walking to school, he’d stop and talk to them, telling them, “This is your neighbor hood – you need to take care of it.” Thomasina Jacobs, who grew up in the neighborhood, said she remem bers Copeland always picking up trash at the park and around the park. When he passed away, nobody did that anymore, she said, at least not consistently and faithfully the way Copeland did. So, when Jacobs came back to Crys tal River last year after working in Tallahassee as a dental hygienist and teaching dental hygiene at Tallahassee Community College, she and others in the community formed a nonprot organization, Copeland Community Park Association. Their goal is more than renovating their park, but revitalizing the com munity. On Friday, community volunteers and volunteers from Duke Energy joined together for a cleanup day at the park, power washing the pavilion and the picnic benches and cleaning the muck and trash out of the pond. “What we’re doing today, everyone from communities all over are coming together,” Jacobs said. “This is a com munity park, and we want our area to be nice and beautiful, and in order for that to happen, we have to come to gether.” Photos by Matthew Beck / Chronicle photo editor More than a dozen volunteers gather Friday, April 21, at Copeland Park in Crystal River for a cleanup effort centered on the small lake in the middle of the park. Trash, vegetation and other debris is removed by the volunteers, many from Duke Energy’s Crystal River energy complex and the Copeland Community Park Association.Crystal River community partners with Duke Energy for Copeland Park cleanup Copeland Community Park Association President Thomasina Jacobs dumps a wheel barrow full of aquatic vegetation into a pile for disposal Friday morning, April 21, at the park in Crystal River. The nonprofit organization had volunteers working to clean areas of the park but most of the work centered on the small lake at the park’s center.

See COPELAND , page A4 Charlie Riedel / AP A keep out sign is posted on a home Wednesday near the house where 84-year-old Andrew Lester shot 16-year-old Ralph Yarl a week earlier in Kansas City, Mo.The front door, threshold of welcome – and perilous border By TED ANTHONY AP National Writer NEW YORK — The American front door is a place where the welcome mat offers friendly greet ings, where affable neigh bors knock or ring, where boxes brimming with pos sibility are delivered. It is where home meets a world full of potentially good things. The American front door is a place where signs trumpet words of warning, where cameras monitor visitors in high denition, where intruders nd an en try point. It is where only a hunk of wood or metal sep arates the innermost spaces of home from a world full of chaos. Both conceptions are real. They can and do exist together – usually peace fully but sometimes, par ticularly of late, conten tiously. In a land where private property is venerated and “get off my lawn” has be come a mantra of jokey crankiness, the American front door is the land scape’s most intimate and personal of borders, the place where the public sphere encounters private space – occasionally with disastrous results. Ralph Yarl, 16, was shot April 13 at Andrew Les ter’s front door in Kan sas City, Missouri. The 84-year-old man, without a word, opened re at the teenager who stood outside the door of what he be lieved was the house where he was picking up his two younger brothers. Lester, who has pleaded not guilty, said he was terried when he opened the door. It was one of several re cent shootings, many of which took place near that threshold – in a drive way, on a front lawn and, of course, right at a front door. “There is so much di vision in American soci ety, so much polarization, so much animosity and so much fear,” says Bill Yousman, an associate professor of media studies at Sacred Heart University in Faireld, Connecticut. “The front door does in some ways embody all of that – as that last place that separates your internal do mestic life with the life of the public.”Prioritizing privatepropertyThe United States, more than many countries, has made private property a priority – a fetish, some would say.

Several peo ple were killed and multiple others injured in a shooting at a birthday party at the dance studio the previous night.

IN BRIEF Extreme drought conditions posted By MICHAEL D. BATES Chronicle Reporter The drought that has en veloped Citrus County shows no sign of relinquish ing its tight grip. As of Thursday, the coun ty is under an “extreme drought” situation, accord ing to the U.S. Drought Monitor index. Not only are these rain less days causing lawns to go brown and the threat of wildres to increase, it’s af fecting lake levels through out the county. “It’s nor mal for wa ter levels to decline this time of year, but with very little rain fall, we’re seeing them drop faster than most folks are used to,” said Mark Fulkerson, chief professional engineer with the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD). Water levels in the Tsala Apopka Chain of lakes have already dropped 5 inches in April “and we’re only twothirds of the way through the month,” he said.. Since their peak in mid-November, lake levels have dropped 22 inches. So far this month, Citrus and surrounding counties have received an average of 0.7 inches of rainfall. That’s 25 percent of the historical average of 2.79 inches for April, according to the Dis trict. It gets worse.From January through April 19, the region has received about 4 inches of rain, a third of the average 12.25 inches this area usu ally gets for the rst four months of the year. Fulkerson said the drought index is one of many indi cators the water district uses to evaluate conditions. “Although water levels are declining, they are still quite a bit higher than we’ve seen during previous periods of drought such as occurred in 2000 and 2007,” he said. “Conditions are certainly very dry, but I would not say that our water resources are in an “extreme drought” right now.” The National Weath er Service forecast shows no signicant rain chanc es for Citrus County until Wednesday. A burn ban enacted by county commissioners earli er this month remains in ef fect for all of Citrus County.

FULKERSON Chronicle file Gerry Mulligan retired Aug 6, 2021, as publisher of the Citrus County Chronicle after a 43-year career at the newspaper. He has recently published a book of his columns, “Out the Window: 43 Years on the Beat.”Former publisher at Central Ridge Library SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE Join Citrus County Chron icle Publisher Emeritus, Gerry Mulligan, for an af ternoon of storytelling and reminiscing as he speaks about his 43 years working for the newspaper. Mulligan will talk about his time in the community and share stories from his book “Out the Window.” In his book, Mulligan writes about duct tape and family values, rats and squirrels, trying to catch a chicken, getting paddled in school, meeting base ball’s Tommy Lasorda who thought he was Gerry Mul ligan the jazz musician, his sore feet and an ugly toe, his dog’s fondness for pooping in his shoe, getting bit by a poisonous snake and how much he loves Citrus Coun ty. The event will take place at 2 p.m. Tuesday, April 25, in the community room at the Central Ridge Library. Dunnellon Police Department’s future uncertain after resignations By SEAN ARNOLD Riverland News Dunnellon Police Chief Mike McQuaig announced earlier this month he was re signing and that all of his ofcers would also be resigning and joining the Marion County Sheriff’s Ofce at an undeter mined time. On April 12, the chief of cially issued a letter of resignation to the members of the city council. “I have enjoyed my tenure here, and I would like to believe I have made a pos itive difference in the community of Dun nellon and my department. I wish you all the best in the future,” McQuaig said in the letter. McQuaig has been Dunnellon’s chief of police since 2016. He said his nal day is “contingent on the transition of the Dunnellon Police De partment up to 90 days from this date to ensure a smooth transition.” The Chief of Police position is required by the city’s charter, and the chief is ap pointed by the city council. After the publication of this story, the city council held a special meeting on Wednesday to deliberate over the future of the Dunnellon Police Department. Also on April 12, council members, the public and Sheriff Billy Woods offered views on McQuaig’s departure and the fu ture of the Dunnellon Police Department at the regular city council meeting. The council reminded the public that the fate of Dunnellon Police Department was up to the council and the residents of Dunnel lon. All of the members expressed support for the continued existence of the Dunnel lon Police Department. “The discussion of eliminating our po lice department did not originate here,” Mayor Wally Dunn said. “It originated somewhere else. This whole idea of get ting rid of the police, as long as I’m may or, will never happen.” “The Dunnellon Police Department can not be abolished without an action of the city council or a vote of the residents of the city (through a referendum), “Coun cilwoman Juliane Mendonca said. “In the feedback I’ve got, I think the residents have overwhelming support for maintain ing the police department, and the city Sean Arnold / Riverland News Dunnellon Police Chief Mike McQuaig intro duces a presentation on school safety during a community town hall. There was a donation celebration follow ing the Crystal River Eagle Rider’s 4272 50 Legs Charity Run on March 11 in which Steve Chamberland, founder of 50 Legs, was presented with a check for the amount of $10,300. 50 Legs is an organization that provides prosthetics to amputees who other wise may not be able to afford them.Special to the Chronicle 50 LEGS CHARITY RUN GARNERS $10,300 See POLICE , page A4 rnMo nda y-A pp tO nly Tu et hru Fr i9:30 -4 :30 r 1657W.GULFTOLAKEHWY(2MI.E.OFHWY.491&44)•LECANTO rrrn FauxWoodBlinds, Shades,Shutters, Verticals,Cellular rn   r n

To dissolve the police department, as (Councilwoman) Jan (Cub-bage) said, is under the council’s purview. It’s not under a police chief’s pur-view to decide the transition to the sheriff. It’s up to the council to work that out with the sheriff and with other knowledgeable peo-ple.” Council members criticized McQuaig’s sudden resignation announcement. Councilwoman Jan Cubbage said she was told it was motivated by his annu-al performance evaluation given by council members. She called his response “unfortunate” and said his announcement of an “exit plan” which included a possibility of a takeover of Dunnellon policing by the Marion County Sheriff’s Of ce was an act of “insub-ordination.” Inskeep said the chief’s action as an “executive” was “unacceptable” but added that he believes the evaluation system is awed. He said he wrote a sec-ond evaluation with higher marks after meeting with the chief to learn more de-tails about his job. He said the evaluation system un-fairly depresses the chief’s evaluation score if a council member writes “not appli-cable” in a category they’re uncertain about. “When I was done, I ended up with a bunch of 2’s and 3’s (out of 5), and what I re-alized at that point is I really don’t know what the chief does on a daily basis,” In-skeep said. “I set up a meet-ing with the police chief and went through what he does, which convinced me even further we need to keep our local police department. “When I was done, my evaluation changed drasti-cally. With the process the way it is, people need to reach out with what we’re grading.” Woods said he was approached by McQuaig as a friend about the chief’s po-tential retirement. “(There’s) a lot of pressure when it comes to be-ing a CEO of law enforce-ment. He deserves more than you know to enjoy life. And when he came to me, we had many discussions about what his personal fu-ture was,” Woods said. “He wanted to ensure that, what-ever decision came from this council, that I would be there for all of you, whatev-er the decision would be.” Woods said there were false rumors suggesting he and McQuaig were working behind the scenes to under-mine the council and that it was also false that he was working with the city coun-cil to undermine the Dun-nellon Police Department. The sheriff said he elded questions from McQuaig and Dunnellon of cers at a meeting with Inskeep in at-tendance but said he made it clear that the Dunnellon city council would determine the fate of the Dunnellon Police Department. “We – me and you – are here together, to take care of (Dunnellon),” Woods told the council. Public comments at the April 12 city meeting were in favor of keeping a police department in Dunnellon. POLICEFrom page A3 Citrus Hills Women’s Club supports charities SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE Citrus Hills Women’s Club (CHWC) distributed $16,000 to local charities at the April 12 luncheon. Citrus County groups receiving money include the Community Food Bank of Citrus County, Voices for Children of North Central Flori-da, Citrus County Family Resource Center, Jesse’s Place, Citrus County Abuse Shelter Association (CASA), Citrus County Blessings, Meals on Wheels-Pet Meals and Carter Street Head Start School. CHWC held various fundraisers during the year to support both the eight charities and scholarships for local high school and college stu-dents. Money was raised at two mahjong tournaments, a bunco tour-nament, bake and craft sale, dinner show event, style show, two golf scramble outings and monthly ticket draws. Since the founding of CHWC in 1986, $580,000 has been distrib-uted to local charities and scholar-ships. CHWC is dedicated to lifelong learning, providing scholarships and contributing to charitable efforts throughout Citrus County. Member-ship is open to women residing in the current Villages of Citrus Hills. CHWC is a 501(c)(3) nonpro t organization that is devoted to making a difference in the community.

Not pictured is co-chair Carol Peterman. She added, “We can’t sit around and wait for some-one else; we all live here, we’re all a part of it, so this is what it takes.” Also raking muck was Sandy Weaver who also grew up in the neighbor-hood, spending many hours at Copeland Park. Weaver, who works as a government contractor in Kuwait, said he was home on “R&R.” “I grew up here, and ever since I was a kid, this was the place,” he said. “This is a nice place to grow up, and what better way to spend my R&R than giving back to my community?” Raking alongside Weaver and Jacobs was Annemarie Hooper, community rela-tions liaison with Duke En-ergy. “Duke Energy is involved because we’re all about giv-ing back to the community,” she said. Duke employees get 10 hours per year of paid time off for volunteering, al-though Hooper said many employees go beyond that and volunteer for various projects without getting paid. Jacobs said the Friday cleanup day wasn’t just a one-time event, but the be-ginning of a longer process toward a bigger goal. They want to stain the pavilion oor, paint the picnic tables and the pavilion itself. “The basketball courts – we have a lot of teens that play on the courts, and they’re un-even, the goals are different heights and they’re rickety,” she said. “We also want to get new, updated playground equipment, those big pieces with lots of things that kids can do. “In the evenings around 5:30 or 6, the parking lot is lled with cars, parents bringing their kids here to play. The kids – they say they want more swings. You can never have enough of those classic swings.” Jacobs said that, as a nonpro t, right now they don’t have the funds to do what they want, but they do have “human energy,” and right now that’s the currency they’re using to clean the park up. “This is pure volunteer energy,” she said, “pure ev-eryone in the community pulling together.” COPELANDFrom page A1

Citrus County Chronicle Monday, April 24, 2023 A5 SOUND OFF That’s not what the bible saysI’m calling in reference to a letter that was written by Mike Dragoun titled “Liberals cause decline in church attendance,” and he goes on and on about the Christian God and that abortion is offensive to the words of the bible. Well, that’s not what the bible says. The bible was written in a world in which abortion was practiced and probably viewed with nuance. Exodus 21 describes a scenario with men ghting and they strike a pregnant woman, and it causes her to miscarry. A monetary ne is imposed if the woman suffers no other harm beyond a miscarriage. It seems that the bible puts a woman’s life ahead of that of a fetus. And one more thing, in Israel right now, they put the life of a woman ahead of a fetus. As a matter of fact, they give free abortions. So, Mr. Dragoun, if you want to get to preaching about the Christian God and the Christian religion, at least get your story straight.We deserve to feel safe tooIs it true Sheriff Prendergast posted on his Facebook page a hat saying, “I would rather be an American than a Democrat”? This would show a level of immaturity and bias that proves without any doubt this man is unt to do his job. How can any democrat feel safe with this man in charge of protecting us? If it is true, he should resign immediate-ly. If he won’t resign, he should be red.Time to retire itTo the Board of County Commission, don’t monkey around on Tuesday, April 25. It is time to retire the half century old animal shelter on Airport Road. Your consideration could provide a cooling for the furry friends of Citrus County residents for another half century. Let’s get the process done and get ready for a ribbon cutting for a new animal shelter in the very near future.Monkeys got me ponderingThis monkey business got me pondering again. Who are the contractors for work being done on Monkey Island and are they in any way related to folks in our county government?Soon to be part of TampaI hate to rain on anybody’s parade, but people might as well face the fact that Citrus County is going to be nothing more than part of the Tampa metro area.Agree with no growth hereI just read sound off and was glad to see that I’m not the only person who does not want all the growth here in Citrus County. Why do the commissioners vote it in all the time? If that’s what they want, why don’t they go to a big city?We need that Baker Act facility, and fastReading the sound off every day has convinced me that, yes, we do need a Baker Act facility in this county very quickly.Concern for water hereWith all the massive new building that’s taking place right now, could someone ease my mind or assure me that we will have plenty of water here in Citrus County?Don’t need assault rifle to huntSome people successfully hunt with bows and arrows, some people successfully hunt with sin gle-shot muzzle loaders. If you’re such a poor shot that you need an AR-15 to be a successful hunter, you should probably take up golf.Vote the sheriff out nextelectionI saw a letter in the Chronicle saying that the sheriff is losing his “pizzazz,” not doing a good job. My attitude is wait for elections and take him out there. There’s soon to be candidates. Might even stake up my run.How does this benefit us?I was just wondering, obviously I’m not extremely comprehensive of what’s going on, but why and how is that deal that the gover-nor’s doing with Disney World benet the voter or the citizens of the state of Florida in any way whatsoever? If somebody can answer that question for me, I’d sure appreciate it.Biden was visiting his familyI’m writing in regard to the sound off “The audacity of it all.” I think that person has a very short-term memory loss because there’s no question that when Donald Trump was president, his kids went with him everywhere. They went to Sau di Arabia, Ireland, U.K., China and Ivanka even sat in on the G7. On the other hand, Biden has family in Ireland. In fact, Hunter Biden’s daughter, Finnigan, was named after her great-grandmother who came from Ireland. So, the Biden family had a reason to go, not the Trump family because they have family in Ireland who they went to visit. Case closed.Why the south lostEighty percent of the comments I read in the sound off section remind me why the south lost the Civil War.A conjured gimmickLike everything in the capitalist society we live in, even the pledge of allegiance, came about due to a gimmick conjured up by a dissatised minister out to make a lot of bucks for the public so he could sell more ags. Did anyone really want to know that?Response about JudgeHowardThis is about the sound off from April 20, “Hope I never meet Judge Howard.” Prior offenses and attitude have a lot to do with punishment.Fire that personWhoever sent the emergency alert test at 4:30 a.m. on April 20 should be red. They owe me four hours of sleep and a totally tired and grumpy day. Do I turn off the weather alerts or do I turn off my phone every night? No good solution here. Fire that person. Q The Chronicle invites you to Sound Off with opinions about local and state issues by calling 352-563-0579. And while American land owners often view all of their property as private, the front door – be it on a single-family home or an apartment unit – is that nal boundary that controls ac cess to the inner sanctum. It is the place to assess threats, but at the same time it re tains the sensibility of a less coiled nation – one where traveling salesmen, cook ie-selling Girl Scouts and local political canvassers can come amicably calling. That decision – to wel come or rebuff – has only become more fraught in the past two decades as political polarization surges, racial tensions spike and “stand your ground” laws multiply. The stakes were exacer bated further by the height of the pandemic, a time of “no-contact” doorstep de liveries when even loved ones and friendly gures could bring potential doom. “This is a space where we have to kind of choose whether we’re literally going to throw open the door or bar the door,” says Nicole Ru dolph, an associate profes sor at Adelphi University in Garden City, New York, who teaches a class called Do mestic Politics: The Public Life of the Private Sphere. “I think we want to show our better selves to the world much of the time, so we open the door – cau tiously,” Rudolph says. “But we are also sensitive to the risk that opening the door entails.” Consider the phrase “di rect to your door,” used these days in connection with everything from Door Dash and GrubHub deliv eries to the ubiquitous blue trucks of Amazon. It implies convenience, speed and the ultimate 21st-century American consumer value – frictionlessness. Yet as any Amazon user who checks delivery status knows, many drivers are required to take – and post – photos of the delivery right at the front door to prove they left it there in case “porch pirates” strike. Or dip into Nextdoor, the hyperlocal social network in which neighborhoods’ resi dents exchange information. It is also a clearinghouse for people noticing what they consider suspicious activi ty around their front doors – some of which might not have been considered menac ing a generation or two ago. A recent sampling: “Yesterday afternoon, someone pounded on my front door.” “I just had two people knocking on my door handing out pamphlets.” “Just a heads up, we caught this guy on our ring camera last night.” “We’ve made our homes prisons. Who are we keep ing out? We’re keeping our selves locked in. There’s so much focus on who’s coming to get you,” says Lori Brown, a professor of sociology, criminology and criminal justice at Meredith College in Raleigh, North Carolina. “Because we’re very ob ject-oriented, everything is about protecting my car, my packages, my front door, my yard,” Brown says. “Ev erything is very private, and I need to keep you away from my stuff. And guns are the ultimate way to protect my stuff.”Looking inwardAt the same time, the mes sages from invisible sources already in our homes – the internet, gadgets like Alexa, streaming television – can encourage us to turn inward more than we did when only newspapers and telephones brought the outside world in. You can sit and watch TV news stations or doomscroll on your phone and become ever more convinced that peril – or “the other” – lies immediately outside. If that wasn’t already en trenched, the pandemic made it so at an entirely new level. Zein Murib, a political scientist at Fordham Uni versity in New York, sug gests that examining the front door as an American borderland might also mean “taking the border metaphor one step further” to the no tion of borders writ large, and who is allowed to ap proach and cross them. Stand-your-ground laws and the “castle doctrine,” which says residents don’t have to retreat when threat ened in their homes, are based on the notion that “certain people have the right to occupy space while others don’t,” Murib says. “Those who are perceived as not belonging in that space are targeted,” Murib says. “People are afforded rights based on how close they come to that standard.” And the front door, they say, can act as a concentrated lit mus test for that decision. Let’s leave the nal word on front doors to comedian Sebastian Maniscalco, who weighed in on the American front door a few years ago in a standup routine that, like so many, was about far more than laughs. “Twenty years ago, the doorbell rang, that was a happy moment in your house. It was called ‘com pany’,” he said. “You can’t stop by anybody’s house anymore. If you do, you have to call from the drive way. You’re like, ‘I’m here – can I approach?’” He was joking, and it was funny. But only because it wasn’t.

Ex-Disney employee allegedly shot videos up women’s skirts By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ORLANDO — A former Walt Disney World em ployee is facing a charge that he surreptitiously took a video up the skirt of a female customer, al legedly telling investiga tors he had done it more than 500 times over the past six years. Jorge Diaz Vega, 26, worked at the Star Wars gift shop inside Disney World’s Hollywood Stu dios theme park in Flor ida until his recent arrest on one count of video voyeurism, a third-degree felony punishable by up to ve years in prison. According to court re cords led by Orange County Sheriff’s detec tives, Vega was spotted by a witness shooting a video up an 18-year-old woman’s skirt. She later told security ofcers she was not aware of Vega’s actions. Detectives said that Vega volunteered during questioning that he takes the videos as a “guilty pleasure” and showed them multiple examples on his cellphone. He was arrested March 31 and released on $2,500 bail. Court records do not show if Vega has an attor ney and a current phone number could not be lo cated. Disney World said Sun day that Vega doesn’t cur rently work for the com pany. The sheriff’s ofce deferred until Monday commenting on whether investigators are pursu ing more charges against Vega.

A6 Monday, April 24, 2023 Citrus County Chronicle C itrus County and the city ofcials need to work together to develop a countywide transportation management plan. The plan is critical for many of our roads that will be impacted by the completion of the Suncoast Parkway and the rapidly expanding growth in the central ridge area. The state is a major player and their involvement is very neces-sary, as well The original Parkway plan had only one exit in Cit-rus County, but it rapidly expanded to four. It has always been clear that the Parkway would bring growth to the coun-ty, most likely making it a bedroom community to the Tampa area. Additionally, we are experiencing an inux from northern states, especially New York, due to extreme winters and high taxes. Florida has always been a desirable retirement location due to climate and cost of living and recent events such as climate change has accelerated the growth. Historically, Citrus County and the State of Florida have been slow to recognize our potential. The indica-tors have been in place. The Parkway and its effect on our county have been com-mon knowledge. Property values around possible exits soared. The development of The Villages in adjacent counties of Marion and Sumter was also another indicator of potential devel-opment in Citrus. Mistakes were made by past county commissions and the State of Florida. We must acknowledge and learn from these shortcom-ings. As the saying goes, “Those who cannot remem-ber the past are condemned to repeat it.” Past commissions were inuenced by agendas of oth-ers, short on foresight and in some cases they lacked the expertise to tackle the problem. The state had a responsibility to work with local governments to pre-pare the area for the impact of the Parkway and, yes, the population increase. The state government strives to increase the state population, often for po-litical or nancial reasons. They employ people to look at trends and determine where growth will most likely occur. It was obvious that the Parkway would spur growth along its way. The county needs a transportation master plan. The Cardinal Drive area, Pine Ridge and the Beverly Hills communities will feel much of the impact, while the City of Crystal River will also be dealing with major trafc challenges from the County Road 495 exit. Inverness and Floral City have different trafc prob-lems as trafc increases. The areas on south U.S. 41, State Road 44 and State Road 200 should have been upgraded a long time ago. Homosassa will most likely see increased trafc and growth due to the Cardinal Drive exit. Wishing, hoping, and complaining will do lit-tle. What will work is a multi-faceted approach to transportation with voters willing to put pressure on elected ofcials at all levels of government. A mericans elect all ofcials, from mayors to governors and state legislators to U.S. sena-tors, via popular vote, except two – the president and vice presi-dent of the United States. The League of Women Voters of Florida believes it is time electors should be guided by most Amer icans who agree on the person who should lead the nation. Acting in concert with the electoral system, we are working to educate the public and legislators about the benets of legislation that would instruct our electors to vote for the Presidential candidate who captures the most votes in all 50 states. The main issue with Presidential elections today is the “winner-take-all” practice, in which the person who wins the most votes in a state, gains all of that state’s elector al votes. This system does not appear in the Constitution, was not used in the rst Presidential elections, and was established by 48 states throughout the 1800s. “Winner-take-all” has created socalled “battleground states” which are neither reliably Republican nor Democratic. The voters in these 12 or so states, representing a small percentage of Americans, determine the selection of Presi dent. Voters in the remaining states (even big ones like Texas and Cali fornia) are ignored by candidates who realize their votes do not count and who can also disregard them once elected. Fortunately, the Constitution contains how the “winner-take-all” system can be replaced to ensure ALL Americans count. States are granted exclusive control by the Constitution over national elections and can choose ANY method of instructing their electors how to vote (two-choice method other than “winner-take-all”). No Constitutional amend ment is required for a state to change its method of instructing electors – just state legislation. A growing number of states are now passing local legislation to instruct their electors to vote for the person who wins the nation al popular vote. More than 60 percent (172) of the 270 elector al votes needed to activate the national popular vote has been secured, Connecticut enacted such legislation in 2018, and bills are being considered in at least 20 other states, accounting for more than the remaining 98 votes needed to activate the compact. National popular vote state laws provide the only system that: QGuarantees the candidate with the most popular votes na-tionwide wins the presidency. QMakes every voter relevant in every Presidential election. QHonors the will of the American People QWorks within the Constitutional framework established by the Founders. QDoes NOT require an amendment to the U.S. Consti-tution. Enacting the national popular vote in enough states to replace the ‘winner-take-all’ system would ensure that the voices of Floridians are just as important as the votes of every other Amer-ican in all future presidential elections.

O DeSantis can still turn it around What an interesting career arc Governor DeSantis has decided to embark on. From a decisive winner in the last election and an almost assured Republican nomination and presidential win, to someone who has become a head scratcher even in his home state. Instead of concentrating on the state issues of the home insur ance crisis, overdevelopment and education, establishing himself as a strong leader, he has opted instead to take on Disney, in a somewhat childish dispute and championed a ridic ulous six-week abortion ban. A time frame when many women would not even know they were pregnant. His abortion position alone would almost assuredly guarantee him a loss in a general election. The 15 week ban was at least palatable to both sides. He still has time to turn it around. Concentrate on pocket book issues affecting your state, take a more measured approach on national issues and your poll numbers will skyrocket. Or, con tinue on the same path and watch Trump be nominated and then lose the general again to hope less Joe Biden. Your choice, Mr. DeSantis. Steven Maly Lecanto Did ya know? World reserve currencies are held by central banks in other nations & are utilized in inter national trade. The U.S. dollar (USD) has been the reserve cur rency of the world since 1945. However, that is ending, other countries like Russia, Germany, France, Britain, Brazil, Iran, Turkey and Venezuela use their own currencies as global reserve currencies instead of the USD and more will follow. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) announced it would no longer use the USD as its standard for assessing a nation’s economic conditions, these actions will cause the ruin of the U.S. economy and there will be no bouncing back.

Citrus County Chronicle Monday, April 24, 2023 A7Ken Potts, one of last 2 USS Arizona survivors, dies at 102 By AUDREY MCAVOY Associated Press HONOLULU — Ken Potts, one of the last two remaining survivors of the USS Arizona battleship, which sank during the 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, has died. He was 102. Howard Kenton Potts died Friday at the home in Provo, Utah, that he shared with his wife of 66 years, according to Randy Stratton, whose late father, Donald Stratton, was Potts’ Arizona ship mate and close friend. Stratton said Potts “had all his marbles” but lately was having a hard time getting out of bed. When Stratton spoke to Potts on his birth day, April 15, he was happy to have made it to 102. “But he knew that his body was kind of shutting down on him, and he was just hoping that he could get better but (it) turned out not,” Stratton said. Potts was born and raised in Honey Bend, Illinois, and enlisted in the Navy in 1939. He was working as a crane operator shuttling supplies to the Arizona the morning of Dec. 7, 1941, when the Pearl Harbor attack hap pened, according to a 2021 article by the Utah National Guard. In a 2020 oral history in terview with the American Veterans Center, Potts said a loudspeaker ordered sailors back to their ships so he got on a boat. “When I got back to Pearl Harbor, the whole harbor was are,” He said in the in terview. “The oil had leaked out and caught on re and was burning.” Dozens of ships either sank, capsized or were dam aged in the bombing of the Hawaii naval base, which catapulted the U.S. into World War II. Sailors were tossed or forced to jump into the oily muck below, and Potts and his fellow sailors pulled some to safety in their boat. The Arizona sank just nine minutes after being bombed, and its 1,177 dead account for nearly half the servicemen killed in the at tack. Today the battleship still sits where it sank eight decades ago, with more than 900 dead entombed inside. Potts recalled decades later that some people were still giving orders in the midst of the attack but there was also a lot of chaos. He carried his memories of the attack over the course of his long life. “Even after I got out of the Navy, out in the open, and heard a siren, I’d shake,” he said. Stratton noted that the only remaining survivor from the Arizona is now Lou Conter, who is 101 and living in California. “This is history. It’s go ing away,” Stratton said, adding: “And once (Conter is) gone, who tells all their stories?” Several dozen Arizona survivors have had their ashes interred on the sunken battleship so they could join their shipmates, but Potts didn’t want that, according to Stratton. “He said he got off once, he’s not going to go back on board again,” he said. Stratton said many Arizo na survivors shared a simi lar dry sense of humor. That included his own father, who was severely burned in the attack and also did not want to return to the ship as ashes in an urn. “‘I’ve been cremated once. I’m not going to be cremated twice,’” Donald Stratton joked, according to the younger Stratton, before his death in 2020 at age 97. “They had that all through out their lives. They had the sense of humor, and they knew sooner or later they would pass,” Randy Strat ton said. “Our job now is to keep their memories alive.” Potts is survived by his wife, Doris. Information on other survivors was not im mediately available. Lance Cpl.

A8 Monday, April 24, 2023 Citrus County ChronicleN & W CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLEDiplomats flee Sudan fighting as citizens struggle to escapeKHARTOUM, Sudan (AP) — Foreign governments evacuated diplomats, staff and others from Sudan on Sunday as rival generals battled for a ninth day with no sign of a truce that had been declared for a major Muslim holiday. While world powers like the U.S. and Britain airlifted their diplomats from the capital of Khartoum, Sudanese desperately sought to ee the chaos. Many risked dangerous roads to cross the northern border into Egypt. “My family – my mother, my siblings and my nephews – are on the road from Sudan to Cairo through Aswan,” prominent Suda nese lmmaker Amjad Abual-Ala wrote on Facebook. Fighting raged in Omdurman, a city across the Nile from Khar toum, residents said, despite a hoped-for cease-re to coincide with the three-day Muslim holi day of Eid al-Fitr. “We did not see such a truce,” Amin al-Tayed said from his home near state TV headquarters in Omdurman, adding that heavy gunre and thundering explosions rocked the city. Over 420 people, including 264 civilians, have been killed and over 3,700 wounded in ghting between the Sudanese armed forc es and the powerful paramilitary group known as the Rapid Sup port Forces, or RSF. The RSF said the armed forces unleashed airstrikes on the up scale neighborhood of Kafouri, north of Khartoum. There was no immediate army comment. The ongoing violence has affect ed operations at the main interna tional airport, destroying civilian planes and damaging at least one runway, and thick, black smoke rose above it. Other airports also have been knocked out of opera tion. European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell tweeted he had spoken with the rival com manders, urging an immediate cease-re to protect civilians and the evacuation of EU citizens. In other ghting, a senior mil itary ofcial said it repelled an RSF attack on Kober Prison in Khartoum where Sudan’s long time ruler, Omar al-Bashir, and former ofcials in his movement have been held since his 2019 ouster. Marwan Ali – stringer, AP Smoke is seen Saturday in Khartoum, Sudan. The fighting in the capital between the Sudanese Army and Rapid Support Forces resumed after an internationally brokered cease-fire failed. A deeply divided Israel limps toward significant birthday on Wednesday By JOSEF FEDERMAN Associated Press JERUSALEM — Orit Pinhasov strongly opposes the Israeli govern ment’s proposed judicial overhaul, but you won’t nd her anywhere near the mass protests against the plan. She says her marriage depends on it. Pinhasov’s husband sits on the op posite side of Israel’s political divide, and joining the protests will only deepen what she says already are pal pable tensions in her household. “I don’t go to the demonstrations not because I don’t believe in them,” she said. “I don’t go in order to protect my home. I feel like I’m ghting for my home.” As Israel turns 75 on Wednesday, it has much to celebrate. But instead of feting its accomplishments as a region al military and economic powerhouse, the nation that arose on the ashes of the Holocaust faces perhaps its gravest ex istential threat yet – not from foreign enemies but from divisions within. For over three months, tens of thou sands of people have rallied in the streets against what they see as an as sault by an ultranationalist, religious government threatening a national identity rooted in liberal traditions. Fighter pilots have threatened to stop reporting for duty. The nation’s lead ers have openly warned of civil war, and families of fallen soldiers have called on politicians to stay away from the ceremonies. Many Israelis wonder if the deep split can ever heal. Miri Regev, the government minister in charge of the main celebration on Tuesday night, has threatened to throw out anyone who disrupts it. The event takes place at a plaza next to Israel’s national cemetery in Jerusalem, where the country abruptly shifts from solemn Memorial Day observances for fallen soldiers to the joy of Independence Day, complete with a symbolic torch-lighting ceremony, military marches and musi cal and dance performances. Opposition leader Yair Lapid is boy cotting the ceremony. “You have torn Israeli society apart, and no phony reworks performance can cover that up,” he said. Oded Balilty / AP Tens of thousands of Israelis protest April 15 against plans by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to overhaul the judicial system in Tel Aviv, Israel. As Israel turns 75, it has much to celebrate. But instead of feting its accomplishments as a regional and economic powerhouse, the nation founded as a home for the world’s Jews in the wake of the Holocaust finds itself under threat – not by foreign enemies but by bitter internal divisions.75 years a nation Matt Rourke / AP 155 mm M795 artillery projectiles are manufactured April 13 at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in Scranton, Pa. Unprepared for long war, U.S. Army under gun to make more ammunition By MARC LEVY Associated Press SCRANTON, Pa. — One of the most important mu nitions of the Ukraine war comes from a historic fac tory in this city built by coal barons, where tons of steel rods are brought in by train to be forged into the artillery shells Kyiv can’t get enough of – and that the U.S. can’t produce fast enough. The Scranton Army Am munition Plant is at the vanguard of a multibil lion-dollar Pentagon plan to modernize and acceler ate its production of ammu nition and equipment not only to support Ukraine, but to be ready for a poten tial conict with China. But it is one of just two sites in the U.S. that make the steel bodies for the critical 155 mm howit zer rounds that the U.S. is rushing to Ukraine to help in its grinding ght to repel the Russian invasion in the largest-scale war in Europe since World War II. The invasion of Ukraine revealed that the U.S. stockpile of 155 mm shells and those of European al lies were unprepared to support a major and on going conventional land war, sending them scram bling to bolster produc tion. The dwindling supply has alarmed U.S. military planners, and the Army now plans to spend billions on munitions plants around the country in what it calls its most signicant trans formation in 40 years. It may not be easy to adapt: Practically every square foot of the Scran ton plant’s red brick factory buildings – rst constructed more than a century ago as a locomo tive repair depot – is in use as the Army clears space, expands production to pri vate factories and assem bles new supply chains. There are some things that Army and plant of cials in Scranton won’t re veal, including where they get the steel for the shells and exactly how many more rounds this factory can produce. “That’s what Russia wants to know,” said Justine Bara ti of the U.S. Army’s Joint Munitions Command. So far, the U.S. has pro vided more than $35 bil lion in weapons and equip ment to Ukraine. National push to bolster security of key election technology By CHRISTINA A. CASSIDY Associated Press ATLANTA — An effort to create a national testing program for technology central to U.S elections will be launched later this year, aiming to strengthen the security of equipment that has been targeted by foreign governments and provided fertile ground for conspira cy theories. So far, states have been left on their own to evaluate the technology that provides the backbone of election op erations: voter registration databases, websites used to report unofcial results on election night and elec tronic pollbooks, which are used instead of paper rolls to check in voters at polling places. The nonprot Center for Internet Security hopes to provide the nation’s rst uniform testing program for the technology, similar to one for voting machines. Its goal is to start the volun tary service in September as a way to help boost the se curity and reliability of the technology before the 2024 presidential election. In 2020, 15 states, includ ing Arizona, Florida and Nevada, did not require any type of electronic pollbook testing or certication, ac cording to federal data. “This is a critical need be ing lled at a critical time,” said Chris Wlaschin, senior vice president for Election Systems & Software, a lead ing voting machine manu facturer that also produces electronic pollbooks. “I think as more election of cials learn about it, the more they’re going to ask for it.” The use of electronic pollbooks in particular has expanded rapidly in recent years. Nearly one-third of all voting jurisdictions in the U.S. used electronic pollbooks in 2020, com pared with about 18 percent four years earlier. Hans Pennink / AP Mark Splonskowski assembles electronic poll book kits Oct. 14, 2020, that voters will use to sign in at polling locations at the Albany County Board of Elections building in Albany, N.Y. Fox’s settlement with Dominion unlikely to cost it $787.5 million By MAE ANDERSON Associated Press Fox Corp.’s $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems over defa mation charges is eye-popping, but the ul timate cost to the media company is likely to be much lower. On Tuesday, Fox settled with Dominion over charges that Fox News baselessly ac cused the company of rigging its voting machines against former President Don ald Trump in 2020. It was the most-watched media libel case in decades. Fox had about $4 billion of cash on hand as of December 2022, and MoffettNathan son analyst Robert Fishman expects the company to pay the settlement during the current quarter. How much the lawsuit will actually end up costing Fox is unclear because there are ways it can defray some of the expense, primarily through insurance and the use of tax deductions. Fox can deduct the Dominion settle ment from its income taxes as an expense necessary for the cost of doing business. Fox Chief Communications Ofcer Brian Nick has conrmed the deductibility of the settlement. Big companies often deduct large settle ments to help offset some of the cost, but since settlement amounts are usually con dential, it’s difcult to pin down exactly how much they benet. Payments that are seen as restitution or compensation can be deducted, while payments made to the government or at the direction of a gov ernment are usually not deductible. Robert Willens, a tax professor at the Columbia University School of Business, estimates that after the tax write-off, Fox will incur about three-fourths of the settle ment amount, about $590 million. Mary Altaffer / AP A man walks past the News Corp. and Fox News headquarters April 19 in New York. Fox Corp.’s hefty $787.5 million settlement with Dominion over defamation charges is unlikely to make a dent in Fox’s operations, analysts say.

S CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLE Section B MONDAY, APRIL 24 , 2023 Kyle Busch wins under caution at Talladega in double overtime By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer TALLADEGA, Ala. — Kyle Busch used miscommunication with his Richard Childress Rac ing crew to win at Talladega Su perspeedway on Sunday in dou ble overtime and under caution. It was the second win of the season for Busch in his new No. 8 Chevrolet and second career victory at Talladega – 15 years apart. The two-time Cup cham pion didn’t even lead his rst laps of the race until the start of second overtime. It was the 13th win for RCR at Talladega, and team owner Rich ard Childress entered the post-race news conference carrying an open bottle of champagne from his vineyard. But as the race headed toward additional laps, Busch’s crew chief made a late call for Bus ch to come in for some gas. The message was received too late and Busch had to save fuel just to ensure he could complete an other two-lap sprint. Bubba Wallace surged past him into the lead from the out side line but was turned by Ryan Blaney to trigger a multi-car crash that automatically ended the race. “Sometimes you’ve got to be lucky. Some of these races come down to that,” Busch said. “You’ve got to take them when they come to your way. The seas kind of parted there when they went up the race track. I saw (Wallace) turn just a little bit sideways and I was like, ‘Get out of the way! Just miss it and try to see if I was ahead of (Blaney) by the time it was called.’” Busch still had to make it all the way around the track to take the checkered ag, with his crew urging him to “Save! Save! Save!” his fuel. He nally seemed out of gas when he attempted to do a vic tory burnout. “We were sweating it being close ... and I’m like, ‘We’ve got to gamble. We’re up here.’ You’ve got to take the track po sition when you have it and go get what you can on the restarts and see what happens. And lo Butch Dill / AP Kyle Busch drives to the finish line to win Sunday’s race at Talladega Super speedway in Talladega, Ala.Rays beats White Sox with second-longest home winning streak since 1901 By MARK DIDTLER Associated Press ST. PETERSBURG — Zach Ef lin pitched ve effective innings in his return from injury and the Tampa Bay Rays hit two more home runs Sunday, beating the slumping Chicago White Sox 4-1 for their 13th consecutive home win to begin the season. Tampa Bay (19-3) tied the 2009 Los Angeles Dodgers for the sec ond-longest home winning streak to start a season since 1901. The 1907 New York Giants opened with 15 straight wins at home. “It has gone really, really well,” Rays manager Kevin Cash said. The Rays are the eighth team since 1901 to start a year by win ning of 19 of 22, and the rst since the 1987 Milwaukee Brewers. The 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers and 1911 Detroit Tigers both opened 20-2. Luke Raley and Harold Ramirez went deep for the Rays, who have homered in each of their rst 22 games – extending their major league record. Tampa Bay has 48 home runs, second-most in big league history through 22 games behind the 2000 St. Louis Cardi nals (52). “The offense has had our back the entire season,” Ein said. “It’s been a lot of fun.” Ein (3-0) allowed one run and three hits in a game that took only 2 hours, 2 minutes. He had been on the injured list with lower back tightness for just more than two weeks. “I felt really good,” Ein said. “What an awesome team win. De fense is playing amazing. High light reels all over the place.” Third baseman Isaac Paredes made several strong plays in sup port of Ein. “Since we’re clicking on all cylinders offensively, I think we shouldn’t forget about playing our defense and that’s what I’m trying to concentrate on,” Paredes said. Yonny Chirinos followed Ein with three perfect innings. Peter Fairbanks worked a 1-2-3 ninth to get his third save and run his team-record scoreless streak to 29 innings. Eloy Jiménez had an RBI double for the White Sox, who have lost nine of 11 and are 7-15 overall. “We’ve just got to keep play ing,” Chicago manager Pedro Grifol said. “There’s a lot of care in there. There’s a lot of ght in them. We’ve just got to keep ght ing. It’s going to turn around.” Raley hit a two-run homer during a three-run second against Lucas Giolito (1-2), and Ramirez made it 4-0 on a third-inning solo drive. Tampa Bay has outscored its op ponents 149-61. Giolito gave up four runs and ve hits over seven innings. The hits consisted of three doubles and two homers. “Giolito gave us seven strong innings,” Grifol said. “Helped our bullpen, much-needed help in the bullpen.” Jiménez, who had solo homers in the rst two games of the se ries, made it 4-1 on his double in the fourth. Chicago center elder Luis Rob erts, who entered 0 for 10 with six strikeouts in the series, singled in the rst. He nished 1 for 4 and has four hits in his last 41 at-bats.

Brad Marchand and Tyler Ber tuzzi also had goals for the Bru ins, who got their second consec utive win at Florida. Hall also had two assists, with both his goals coming in the nal 3:36 – the sec ond one an empty-netter. Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Bennett scored for Florida, while Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 25 shots. Game 5 is at Boston on Wednes day night. Stars 3, Wild 2 ST. PAUL, Minn. – Tyler Seguin scored two power-play goals and Jake Oettinger made 33 saves as Dallas evened the first-round series at two games apiece. Evgenii Dadonov also scored to help the Stars bounce back from a lopsided loss in Game 3. John Klingberg and Frederick Gaudreau scored for Minnesota, and Filip Gustavsson had 21 saves. Dadonov gave the Stars a 2-0 lead early in the third period just 8 seconds after escaping the penalty box. Klingberg scored for the Wild less than three min utes later. Seguin restored the Stars’ two-goal lead with his third goal of the series late in the third before Gaudreau pulled the Wild back within one with 1:20 left.

Yin’s second shot came up short and left and splashed into the pond guarding the par-5 18th hole, and Vu hit her approach just over the green. Vu went with putter from off the green and came up well short, but she converted from about 10 feet for the victory. The 25-year-old Californian won for the second time on the LPGA Tour and took a celebratory leap into the pond, a tradition borrowed from this tournament’s former ven ue at Mission Hills in the Califor nia desert. Vu birdied her last two holes for a 4-under 68 and a four-day total of 10-under 278 at Carlton Woods, then waited as other contenders – including Yin – faltered. But Yin, after bogeys on the 16th and 17th holes, birdied the 18th to force the playoff. Unable to nd a sponsor will ing to add to the half-century run at Mission Hills, the tournament – long known as the Dinah Shore for its longtime celebrity host – re located to the woods of suburban Houston under a six-year deal with Chevron. Vu took home $765,000 for the win from a purse of $5.1 million, the largest ever for this event. World No. 2 Nelly Korda nished alone in third at 9 under. Atthaya Thitikul was at 10 under standing on the 18th fairway when she hit her third shot into the water. She made double bogey and nished in a tie for third at 8 under.PGA TourAVONDALE, La. – Nick Hardy and Davis Riley birdied four of their nal six holes – highlighted by Riley’s 33-foot birdie putt from the from the fringe on the par-3 17th – to give both players their rst PGA Tour victory at the Zu rich Classic on Sunday. They began the nal round three shots back and closed with a 7-un der 65 in alternate-shot play to nish with a tournament-record total of 30-under 258 at TPC Lou isiana, eclipsing the 259 posted by 2022 winners Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele. Hardy and Ri ley were two shots better than Ca nadians Adam Hadwin and Nick Taylor. Each takes home $1.24 million and earns a two-year exemption for winning the PGA Tour’s only team event. Hadwin and Taylor shot 63, ty ing the course record in alternate shot that was set in Friday’s sec ond round by Cantlay and Schauf fele. Wyndham Clark and Beau Hoss ler closed with a 1-under 71 to n ish third, three shots back. Cantlay and Schauffele tied for fourth with Matthew NeSmith and Taylor Moore at 26-under.LIV GolfADELAIDE, Australia – Talor Gooch saw his 10-shot overnight lead almost evaporate but rallied late to win the inaugural LIV Golf-Adelaide on Sunday. After two rounds of 10-under 62, Gooch closed with a 1-under 73 at the Grange Golf Club to win his rst LIV event by three strokes over Anirban Lahiri. Gooch n ished with a 54-hole total of 19-under 197. Gooch made bogeys on the sev enth and eighth holes and a double bogey on No. 10 as his lead over Lahiri fell to two shots. But the American rallied with birdies at the 11th and 13th holes and n ished with a par at the last to win $4 million from the $20 million purse on the Saudi-funded circuit. Lahiri shot 65. Cameron Trin gale (67), Pat Perez (67), Patrick Reed (65) and British Open cham pion Cameron Smith (66) were another shot back. Phil Mickelson closed with a 69 to tie for 11th at 12 under.

Movie” continued to rack up coins at the box ofce, leading ticket sales for the third straight weekend, as the animation hit neared $1 billion after just 18 days in theaters. The weekend’s top new release, the horror reboot “Evil Dead Rise” debuted solidly, launching with $23.5 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. But that was no match for Universal Pictures’ “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” which grossed $58.2 million in its third weekend. “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” is setting a torrid pace for an animat ed movie. This week, it became the highest-grossing animated released of the pandemic era, with domes tic ticket sales up to $434.3 million through Sunday and its global tal ly at $871.1 million. When “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” soon passes $1 billion worldwide, it will be just the fourth lm of the pan demic era to reach that benchmark, following “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” “Top Gun Maverick” and “Avatar: The Way of Water.” “Evil Dead Rise,” From Warner Bros. and New Line, is the fth in stallment (and rst in a decade) in the thriller franchise that Sam Raimi began with this 1981 ultra-low-bud get classic, “Evil Dead.” Though Raimi’s subsequent and much-adored lms starring Bruce Camp bell grew increasingly slapstick, marrying comedy and horror, the 2013 reboot and “Evil Dead Rise” (with Raimi as an executive produc er) rely on chillier frights. “Evil Dead Rise,” which had a re ported budget of $17 million, also had originally been planned as an HBO Max release. When Warner Bros. decided direct-to-streaming lms weren’t nancially appeal ing, it pushed some lms – includ ing “Magic Mike’s Last Dance” and “House Party” – to theaters, and simply canned a few others including “Batgirl” and “Scoob! Holiday Haunt.” Amazon Studios’ “Air,” likewise initially was intended to go straight to streaming, has also continued to perform well theatrically. The Ben Afeck-directed lm, about Nike’s courting of Michael Jordan, dipped a modest 29 percent in its third weekend with $5.5 million to bring its cumulative total to $41.3 million. But while horror remains one of the most dependable genres at the box ofce, and families – after a long dry spell of all-audience re leases – have ocked to “Super Mario,” some adult-oriented re leases have continued to have a harder time attracting audiences. Guy Ritchie’s “The Covenant,” starring Jake Gyllenhaal as an in jured army sergeant in Afghani stan, opened with $6.3 million in 2,611 theaters. But with mostly good reviews (81 percent fresh on Rotten Tomatoes) and an “A” Cin emaScore from ticket buyers, the MGM release may hold well in coming weeks. Ari Aster’s “Beau Is Afraid,” the most expensive movie ever made by specialty studio A24, expanded until near-wide release, going from four theaters to 926. Aster’s three-hour opus, received with more mixed reviews than his previous two lms (“Hereditary,” “Midsom mar”), took in $2.7 million. But with overall business in mov ie theaters largely thriving thanks to spring hits like “The Super Ma rio Bros.

On this date:In 1877, federal troops were ordered out of New Orleans, ending the North’s post-Civil War rule in the South. In 1960, rioting erupted in Biloxi, Mississippi, after Black protesters staging a “wade-in” at a whites-only beach were attacked by a crowd of hostile whites. In 1967, Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov was killed when his Soyuz 1 spacecraft smashed into the Earth after his parachutes failed to deploy properly during re-en try; he was the first human spaceflight fatality.

In 2019, avowed racist John William King was executed in Texas for the 1998 slaying of James Byrd Jr., who was chained to the back of a truck and dragged along a road outside Jasper, Texas; prose cutors said Byrd was targeted because he was Black. Ten years ago: A magni tude-5.7 earthquake near Jalalabad, Afghanistan killed more than 30 people and injured more than 100. The 11th-century minaret of a famed mosque in Aleppo, Syria collapsed as rebels and government troops clashed in the streets around it, depriv ing the city of one of its most important landmarks.

Five years ago: Former police officer Joseph DeAnge lo was arrested at his home near Sacramento, California, after DNA linked him to crimes attributed to the so-called Golden State Killer; authorities believed he com mitted 13 murders and more than 50 rapes in the 1970s and 1980s. (DeAngelo is awaiting trial.) One year ago: French Presi dent Emmanuel Macron com fortably won reelection to a second term.

Citrus County Chronicle Monday, April 24, 2023 B5A & P Roomies trespass and are caught on cameraDEAR AMY: I am a college student living with college-aged roommates in a four-bed-room, one-bathroom house. We each have our own room and we share common living spaces. A few months ago, I started noticing my locked bed-room door mysteriously unlocked and wide open, exposing my belongings to the rest of the house. I promptly put up a security camera in my room. Sure enough, one day I got a noti cation of a per-son breaking into my room. I saved the video and anx-iously pondered ideas about what I should do. I decided to do nothing and see if it would happen again. Again, I received a noti cation that a person was in my room. This time all of my roommates were in my bedroom – scoping it out. One of the roommates spotted the camera and immediately exited the room. On the tape I heard him state to the others that they should say that the reason for forced entry was to shut the open window. I am furious and con icted on what I should do. Should I le a police report? Confront them? Or should I, again, do nothing? – Locked In DEAR LOCKED IN: This is creepy. You have video (and audio) of all of your roommates snooping through your room. They are also now aware that you have a camera, which should work as a deterrent against future raids. In the short term, I don’t think it’s a good idea to confront these people because you don’t seem to have any allies in the house. Before going to the police, I suggest that you contact your landlord, report what has happened, and ask for a deadbolt lock to be installed on your door. Also review your lease agreement, and start looking for other housing. Yes, I do think you should go to the police, but it might be wisest to wait until you have secured other housing and moved your things out. This is trespassing and these people should be called to account. DEAR AMY: I have a new grandson who was born prematurely; he is currently in the NICU. This has been an extremely stressful and emotional time for our family. This is our rst grandchild. Recently a good friend returned from her winter in Florida and called me. She asked how we were doing, and I gave her a very brief description of what was going on. Her responses were rushed and uncomfortable, and she couldn’t wait to get off the phone. She does not have grandchildren, so maybe that explains her response? I’m kind of puzzled, as she is usually a very kind friend. Any thoughts or advice? – Puzzled DEAR PUZZLED: Your friend might have seemed rushed and uncomfortable because she was upset by your news and wanted to make sure that she didn’t keep you away from your family. Yes, this response was unexpected, but this is a great example of the truism that we often simply don’t know what other people are going through. When you’re baf ed by someone else’s behavior, anchoring to this perspective can prompt you not to take things personally – until you are given just cause. It is possible that your friend had a previous similar experience that your story triggered. Or she was taken by surprise, messed up and disappointed you. DEAR AMY: I’m responding to the question from “Cleaning in Culver City,” who was downsizing. This person had decided to send correspondence that lifelong friends had sent over the years back to the original writer. “Cleaning” was surprised that no friends had thanked him for this gesture. You thought this was a “very thoughtful” thing to do. As the recipient of a similar packet of letters and photographs that I’d originally sent to my aunt, I can offer my own reaction. I felt sadness. It seemed like my aunt was divorcing the family (similar packets were sent to other family members.) Time has granted me a kinder reaction as I realized that her intent was to share. She wasn’t rejecting us; she was just downsiz-ing. I think I would’ve liked to review a well-written sentimental note or two, but I wish she’d just disposed of the rest of the letters and photos if she didn’t want to keep them. – Dejected, not Rejected DEAR DEJECTED: Dozens of readers have responded – all saying that they would not appreciate receiving letters and photos they had sent to someone else. Your description of how it felt to receive yours makes perfect sense. You can email Amy Dickinson at askamy@ amydickinson.com or send a letter to Ask Amy, P.O. Box 194, Freeville, NY 13068.

So knock on wood for this one.” NASCAR had to exam ine the nal nishing order as Busch celebrated at the nish line. There were 57 lead changes. Blaney for Team Penske was scored second and seemed frustrated with Wallace, his close friend, for blocking him on the nal lap. “In my mind you kind of triple move like that, triple block, and you can’t block three times,” Blaney said. “Runs are just so big, and as the leader with Bubba, he’s trying to block which is the right thing to do, but I think he kind of moved three times. You don’t re ally get a lot of those. I’ve got to go somewhere.” Wallace, who had team owner Michael Jordan watching from his pit stand, accepted responsi bility. “Close, close, close block,” he said. “Not (Blaney’s) fault. I honest ly thought that he would leave me high and dry coming back around. Hate it I caused that one. Man, I thought it would play out a little different, obviously not getting wrecked.” Chase Briscoe from Stewart-Haas Racing was third, followed by Chris Buescher and Brad Kesel owski of RFK Racing as Ford drivers were second through fth. Erik Jones of Legacy Motor Club was sixth in a Chevrolet, followed by William Byron of Hen drick Motorsports and nally Christopher Bell, the highest-nishing Toyota driver at eighth. The race was far tam er than the Xnity Series race on Saturday, when two cars went airborne and Blaine Perkins remained hospitalized Sunday af ter his car barrel-rolled at least six times in a crash-fest. The Cup stars were much cleaner Sunday and the rst multi-car accident didn’t occur until 48 laps remaining when Noah Gragson ran into the back of Harrison Burton, the leader at the time, to trig ger a ve-car crash. The next caution was with ve laps remaining when Daytona 500 win ner Ricky Stenhouse Jr. gave Corey Lajoie a big push that rammed Lajoie into Joey Logano and sent Logano spinning into the wall. That sent the race to its rst overtime, which was an immediate disaster. Ross Chastain shoved his car into the middle for a third lane and his car bounced off Gragson, who hit the wall to trigger the crash. Kyle Larson was knocked into the grass and his car shot back into the middle of trafc for a full-contact hit of Ryan Preece. That seventh caution sent Kevin Harvick, pole-sit ter Denny Hamlin and Chastain to pit road for fuel to ensure they could compete in second over time. As the cars rolled around the 2.66-mile speedway under caution, Blaney radioed his Team Penske crew he didn’t think he had enough gas to make it to the nish. But when the race went green, it was Ty Gibbs who was out of gas and he immediately pulled out of line. Busch surged into the lead. Wallace briey pushed ahead until he was spun by Blaney.Up nextNASCAR races next Sunday at Dover Interna tional Speedway. Chase Elliott is the defending race winner.
