BATES Chronicle Reporter Thursday evening brought strong wind gusts and rain to parts of Citrus Coun ty but it was mostly sound without the fury. “This re cent rainfall has been a welcome sight, but we’re still well below average for 2023,” said Mark Fulkerson, chief pro fessional engineer with the Southwest Florida Wa ter Management District (SWFWMD). Fulkerson said most areas received about 0.5 inches of rain – not enough to get us out of this dry spell. “The rains this week have temporarily halted the steady decline in water lev els in our area’s rivers and lakes, but there hasn’t been enough rain yet to make a signicant difference,” Fulkerson said. “A few areas have even seen water levels rise a couple inches this past week, but those gains will be short-lived unless our region continues to receive substantial rainfall,” he add ed. “Our dry season pro gresses through the month of May, and in June we nor mally see rainfall amounts start to increase. County Emergency Man agement Director Chris Evan said there were no reports of any wind or rain damage over night Thurs day The amount of rain re ceived, he said, was insignificant and did noth ing to cause the adopted burn ban to be lifted. He urged residents to vis it the department’s website at https://bit.ly/3AE48gO and hit “to report damages” in case of thunderstorms, lightning strikes and hurri canes. On Friday, the National Weather Service was fore casting an 80 percent and 70 percent chance of rain for Citrus County on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Michael D.

BATES Chronicle Reporter Now that ground-clearing is underway for the next phase of the Suncoast Park way at County Road 486 and Pine Ridge Boulevard, it’s time for county and state ofcials to decide what they want that immediate area to look like. It’s a given the new in terchange will be a magnet for development, but what kind? Do people want more stores and restaurants? In dustrial complexes? Gas stations and car washes? And how close should they be to homes? Citrus County has been working with the Florida Department of Transpor tation (FDOT) on an Inter change Management Area (IMA) plan. Think of it as a blueprint for how devel opment should occur there, given the road network, proximity to houses and en vironmental concerns. At Tuesday’s county com mission meeting, CHW Inc., the consultant con tracted to prepare the IMA, gave a presentation update and began with these two givens: QThe Suncoast Parkway interchange at C.R. 486 will bring more people to that area of Citrus County QThe IMA will enhance the quality of development there and provide new busi ness opportunities with Residents: Make sure development is compatible with community Large piles of debris are stacked and ready for removal Friday morning, April 28, along the Suncoast Parkway’s newest phase where construction has recently started.

Ron DeSantis hoped his rst international trade mission would gener ate lucrative business deals and boost his foreign policy resume ahead of an expect ed presidential run. Instead, he faced questions about losing ground to former President Donald Trump and being taken to court by Walt Disney World. The trip reected the in tensifying pressure con fronting DeSantis as some of his allies grow increas ingly anxious about his White House prospects. Within a few short years, he rose from relatively a rela tively obscure congressman to Trump’s leading Republi can rival by embracing the former president’s cultural grievances without the con stant tumult. But it turns out DeSantis isn’t immune from drama. Facing questions this week about his standing within the GOP and his ght with Disney, he’s sometimes ap peared agitated, reinforcing concerns within corners of his own party about his readiness for the rigor of presidential politics. Some in the GOP said that rath er than burnish his image as a ghter, the confron tation with Disney over an anti-LGBTQ law and the theme part’s right to self-governor is becoming a distraction. “My goal would be for this spat to end. They’ve been our longtime partner,” said Republican state Sen. Joe Gruters, the immediate past chair of the state GOP and a Trump supporter. “We should be focused in a posi tive way on helping our job creators.” Speaking in Israel, DeSan tis expressed condence in his actions and is showing no sign of letting the Disney issue go. “I don’t think the suit has merit, I think it’s politi cal,” said DeSantis, whose Maya Alleruzzo / AP Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis talks to the media Thursday at a conference titled “Celebrate the Faces of Israel” at Jerusalem’s Museum of Tolerance. See INTERCHANGE , page A4 See DESANTIS , page A4

BATES Chronicle Reporter The Citrus County Cham ber of Commerce on Friday honored the ‘pillars’ of the community – people, or ganizations and businesses that made a signicant im pact on its betterment. As it’s done for some 30 years, the chamber held its annual “Pillar Awards” event, held this year at the Citrus County Golf & Country Club Here are this year’s win ners, along with a prole from the chamber: George Rusaw: Charles B. Fitzpatrick Heritage Award, given to someone who has made a signicant impact on the quality of life in Citrus County with a lifetime of service and community involvement. “George is this year’s recipient due to his many years serving our citizens and community through his work with Hab itat for Humanity. He has embodied the mission and committed himself to uplift ing our community by pro viding a vital resource to the citizens through at tainable housing.” Amy Crow ell: Altru sa Woman of Impact Award, given to someone who exemplies excellence in character, business, and citizenship and exhibits an altruistic at titude in public involvement. “Nominated by Altrusa of Citrus County, Amy is this year’s recipient due to the exemplary role she plays, not only in her pro fessional career, but in the community. “She has impacted almost everything the school dis trict has implemented since the beginning of her career in 1998. She never says ‘no’ when someone needs help and never wants credit for making things happen.”Awards go to people, organizations and businesses that make an impact RUSAW CROWELLLocal leaders help Meal on Wheels SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE The Citrus County Board of County Commissioners’ (BOCC) Division of Support Services invited community leaders to help bring atten tion to the needs of seniors by volunteering to assist with Meals on Wheels deliveries during Community Champi ons Week, March 20-24, as a part of the national March for Meals campaign. These high-prole volun teers, which included Chair man Ruthie Davis Schlabach and Commissioner Diana Finegan, accompanied ex perienced Meals on Wheels drivers on their regular deliv ery routes. “It gives me great com fort to know that someone is checking on our elderly citizens,” Schlabach said. “Meals on Wheels has touched my family personal ly. My late mother wanted to hold on to her independence so, when it became clear that she was not getting the nutrition she needed, Meals on Wheels was a perfect t. This cause is near and dear to my heart.” This year’s March for Meals celebration comes at a time when eight out of ten local Meals on Wheels programs are still delivering meals to more older adults than they were prior to the pandem ic, and operational and food costs are still soaring even while ination slows. “The men and women that volunteer their time every month to deliver meals are the true champions,” Fin egan said. “(Drivers) Lin da and Gayle showed me that they provide more than meals. They give kindness, smiles and share other ser vices and activities for those looking for companionship. I encourage everyone that has even one day a month to volunteer to try a ride-along and see the great benet of Meals on Wheels.” County Administrator Steve Howard also took an opportunity to volunteer his time. “I was honored to partic ipate,” said Howard. “The volunteers work tirelessly to make this program so suc cessful. They demonstrate what service to community is in action.” To learn more about March for Meals, visit meals onwheelsamerica.org/take-action/march-for -meals.

Residents also prefer that the parcels south of C.R. 486 could be mas-ter-planned as mixed-use town centers. They want the more intense uses (such as restau-rants and stores) should be built closer to County Road 491 or south of C.R. 486 – between the Suncoast Park-way and the Duke Energy utility easement. Meanwhile, FDOT was scheduled Friday morning to host a formal ground-breaking ceremony an-nouncing the next phase of the parkway. The event, which would have been held at the Pine Ridge interchange, was canceled due to weather. It will be rescheduled. The $103-million project will extend the toll road an-other three miles from C.R. 486 to its current terminus at State Road 44 in Le-canto. It should take three years to complete. Site clearing has been going on for several weeks at the Pine Ridge site. That should clear up soon. Michael D. Bates is a staff writer with the Citrus County Chronicle and can be reached at mbates@chronicleonline.com. INTERCHANGEFrom page A1political team has used the Disney ght to raise money. “The days of putting one company on a pedestal with no accountability are over in the state of Florida.” The ght has been going on for more than a year. It began when Disney spoke out against legislation that would prevent discussion of sexual preference and gender identity in grades K-3. DeSantis responded by accusing Disney of being “woke” and calling lawmak-ers to Tallahassee to punish Disney by stripping it of a decades-old right to make development and expansion decisions on its own. “ThereÂ’s a new sheriff in town,” DeSantis said last year when he announced plans to get back at Disney. And in his new book, he boasted about outsmarting the company. But some are questioning who is outsmarting who as Disney waited until the gov-ernor was out of the country before suing him, claiming that heÂ’s retaliating against the stateÂ’s largest private employer for simply speak-ing an opinion. Democratic state Sen. Linda Stewart, whose district is near Disney, said she under-stands that DeSantis made big headlines when he rst stood up to Disney, and that it rallied his core supporters. But the longer the feud drags on, the more it could back re. “IÂ’m betting on Disney. They probably have more money and lawyers than the state of Florida,” Stewart said. “As he progresses on, people are getting mad at him. The citizens of Florida do not like him going after family-friendly, economic development for the com-munity. People donÂ’t want government involved in business.” Stewart says that DeSantisÂ’s anti-Disney comments are getting more petty. The governor this month pointed out that the Disney district the state took over controls a lot of undeveloped land. He told reporters that the land could go to a prison, a competing theme park or some other project. “Really? A prison? A nuclear plant? A new theme park? I mean, what kind of rationale is he putting out there?” Stewart said. “It doesnÂ’t even make any sense.” DeSantis is eyeing a presidential campaign launch once the state legislature wraps up its session next month. As that moment nears, public familiarity with the governor is im-proving. Just 24 percent of U.S. adults say they donÂ’t know enough to rate him in the April AP-NORC poll, compared with 30 percent in October and 42 percent in July 2021. Still, that increased familiarity has translated almost entirely to increased nega-tive views toward DeSantis: 45 percent have an unfavor-able view of him, up slightly from 40 percent in October and 30 percent in July 2021. Overall favorable ratings for DeSantis have largely remained the same: 31 per-cent say that have an unfa-vorable opinion of him in the new poll. Unfavorable ratings, however, are con-centrated among Demo-crats. Among Republicans, 63 percent now say they have a favorable view of DeSantis, a tick up from 57 percent in October. The shift is con-centrated among moderate and liberal Republicans, who have grown more fa-miliar with him. With that shift, favorable ratings of DeSantis (63 percent) and Trump (68 percent) are largely sim-ilar among Republicans. TrumpÂ’s unfavorable rat-ings are slightly higher than DeSantisÂ’ (30 percent vs 20 percent), while more say they are unfamiliar with De-Santis than Trump. Overall, about half of Republicans say they have a favorable view of both men. ThereÂ’s an open question of whether the continuation of the Disney ght will dent DeSantisÂ’ political stand-ing. Now that itÂ’s in court, the lawsuit will keep pop-ping up in headlines if De-Santis eventually enters the presidential race. DeSantisÂ’ own U.S. senator and predecessor as governor, Republican Rick Scott, told Fox Business that he agrees with DeSantis on the law Disney spoke out against, but he said he hopes the feud will die down. “What I hope is that cooler heads are going to prevail here,” Scott said Wednes-day. “WeÂ’ve got to gure out how to solve this prob-lem, how to make sure Dis-ney continues to grow in our state, how Disney contin-ues to invest and add more jobs.” DESANTISFrom page A1 Matthew Beck / Chronicle photo editor Phase 3 of the Suncoast Parkway construction began earlier this month. Above, heavy equipment moves dirt Friday morning, April 29.School superintendent who criticized Gov.DeSantis could lose job By TERRY SPENCER Associated Press Florida of cials are threatening to revoke the teaching license of a school superin-tendent who criticized Gov. Ron DeSantis, accusing the educator of violating sev-eral statutes and DeSantis directives and allowing his “personal political views” to guide his leadership. Such a revocation by the state Department of Educa-tion could allow DeSantis to remove Leon County Su-perintendent Rocky Hanna from his elected of ce. The Republican governor did that last year to an elected Democratic prosecutor in the Tampa Bay area who disagreed with his posi-tions limiting abortion and medical care for transgen-der teens and indicated he might not enforce new laws in those areas. Disney also sued DeSantis this week, saying he targeted its Orlando theme parks for retribution after it criticized the governorÂ’s so-called “DonÂ’t Say Gay” law that then banned the discussion of sexuality and gender in early grades, but has since been expanded. Hanna has publicly opposed that law, once de ed the governorÂ’s order that barred any mandate that students wear masks during the COVID-19 pandemic, and criticized a DeSan-tis-backed bill that recent-ly passed that will pay for students to attend private school.

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 A5Why no mugshots, CCSO?I would like to know if anyone has information why the Citrus County SheriffÂ’s Ofce no longer posts any of the mugshots of those arrested with an explanation of what their arrests were for? This used to be pub-lished on a regular basis, but itÂ’s no longer on the SheriffÂ’s website.This is ruining the Nature CoastThese people that are complaining from New York, in one Sound Off from Saturday, said that the guy really enjoyed being down here with all of his New York buddies because he liked to have someone educated to talk to once in a while. So, does that mean the rest of us here are stupid? You know, you did the same thing in New Hampshire. Thirty years ago, when I moved down here, all the New York people came to New Hampshire, and you ruined that too and you pushed the rest of us out of there. We couldnÂ’t afford to live there anymore. YouÂ’re doing the same thing here to the Nature Coast, and weÂ’re allowing it to happen. On another topic, the county commissioners need to see through this. I donÂ’t know why every time the sheriff says he needs more money for his budget, you guys all squawk and complain. Look at the growth that is coming. I think our sheriffÂ’s depart-ment does a great job and weÂ’re thankful to have them. Who is your rst call when you need something? People need to really pull it together. This is no longer the Nature Coast. YouÂ’re ruining it as we speak. No more building.Concerned about fire responseBeing a volunteer reghter from Long Island, I read the other day that there was a structure re in Crystal River and several towns went to go ght this re at the mobile home, taking trucks from Kens-ington all the way down to Citrus Springs. IÂ’m just wondering who covers these areas when all these trucks are gone, when theyÂ’re only manning like two to three men in the station? Who covers Citrus Springs and Pine Ridge if a re should break out somewhere else?Response about Sheriff PrendergastIÂ’m reading the Monday, April 24, paper and I see a couple of Sound Offs saying, “We deserve to feel safe too.” Let me tell you, Sheriff Prendergast does not dispatch his cars based on your political party. Wait until you have an emergency, and youÂ’ll see how quickly theyÂ’ll respond. Also, concerning the next election, every body knows in Citrus County that heÂ’s a Repub lican and, yes, heÂ’s been there for a few years. I think if he had sufcient manpower things would improve in Citrus County. This is a pretty big area and with a limited number of ofces, itÂ’s difcult to do a job. I commend him for what heÂ’s done so far in trying to take all the drugs off the street. As far as that goes, thatÂ’s proba bly one of our most critical problems right now with all the fentanyl throughout this country.An issue with Citizen PatrolIÂ’m referencing the Citrus County SheriffÂ’s Citizen Patrol. I parked in pub-lic, my handicap decal is broken on top, so I put it on my dashboard where itÂ’s visible. A Citizen Patrol car is behind me the whole time IÂ’m getting my service dog out. He sat there as she went potty. I go into the store, he sat there the whole time, but when I came out, he put a warning on my window saying, ‘tag needs to be hanging from mirror.Â’ Now he couldnÂ’t open his window before then and ask, “Excuse me sir, are you handicapped?” Meanwhile, these two cars SOUND OFFCALL 563-0579 See SOUND OFF , page A8 r n Ly nnHarris 352.269.8499 lynn.harris@eracitrus.comwww.CitrusHometownProperties.com r • To p 25ERASalesAssociate Nationwide-UnitsSoldin2022 • To p CompanyProducer @ ERA AmericanSuncoast Re alty fo r 2022 •5 StarCustomer Ra ting Listing & Se lling Si nc e 1997in Citrus Co unt y “Superior Se rv ic e Isn Â’t Expensive; It Â’s Pr iceless!” 352-634-4346homes4u3@mindspring.comwww .resalehomes4u.com O ce:352-382-1700 Ga ilA.

Biden declares Fort Lauderdale disaster area after floodingFORT LAUDERDALE (AP) — President Joe Biden declared FloridaÂ’s Broward County a disaster area Friday, two weeks af ter record-breaking rain left parts of Fort Lauderdale and its suburbs ooded. Gov. Ron DeSantis had requested the declaration earlier this week. The dec laration makes Broward residents and business own ers who incurred damage to their homes and other property eligible for a wide range of federal loans and other assistance. Local gov ernments and nonprot or ganizations are also eligible. More than 2 feet of rain fell in some parts of the county on April 12. The 1-in-1,000-year deluge left some neighborhoods with up to 3 feet of water. About 1,000 homes were severely damaged, according to the state. The ooding also closed the airport for almost two days. Gas deliveries to the port were also slowed, causing long lines at the pump. While frequently sniping at each other, the Dem ocratic president and the governor have seen their administrations work to gether after disasters. That includes last yearÂ’s Hur ricane Ian, which killed more than 140 people and left thousands homeless, and the 2021 collapse of a condo tower in Surfside, which killed 98.

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 A7 A fter an earlier Board of County Commis-sioners discussion, the Tourist Development Council members agreed to spread the tourism mon-ey and advertising wealth around to include the Inver-ness area. Citizens of Homosassa, Floral City and Inverness have all reported feeling left out of tourism as it relates to Citrus County. Many report feeling that Crystal River has had the majority of the focus placed on it be-coming the manatee capital of the world and the only recognized city as it relates to tourism development in Citrus County. The TDC has focused a lot on the manatees and Crystal River and now that momen-tum has been built around this part of the community, it’s important to give some focus and attention to the east side. County Commissioner and TDC member Holly Davis encouraged Jacquie Hepfer, Inverness councilwoman, to develop a large-scale capital plan to benet the east side of the county and apply for Tourist Development Coun-cil funding. The east side of the county has so much to offer. Now feels like the perfect time to begin focusing efforts for Inverness. In a recent epi-sode of the show “RV There Yet,” the hosts highlighted many of Citrus County’s beautiful tourist attrac-tions. The show highlighted cycling, outdoor activities, nature, and art and history. These things already t under the entertainment umbrella of Citrus County’s targeted tourist demograph-ic. Accommodations are also increasing as the Woodland Suites is also able to offer a more traditional hotel ac-commodation for visitors. Crystal River has been discovered and continues to build momentum in getting visitors to Citrus County. The focus on the east side of our community is not only warranted but much needed. Although not talked about often, tourism is a big part of Citrus County‘s eco-nomic landscape. Spreading the tourism love to the east side boosts the local econo-my and patronization to our local businesses. We look forward to seeing the com-prehensive and extensive plan that Councilwoman Heifer comes up with and creates. ‘H ow many of you have closed your email and then immediately reopened it be-cause you might have just gotten an email?” Laughter rippled through the audience – includ-ing me – as we listened to Emily Cherkin give a talk at The Brear-ley School in Manhattan about tech and kids and us: parents, kids, educators, email addicts. Cherkin, aka The Screentime Consultant, was a seventh-grade teacher in Seattle from 2003 to 2013. In 2003 almost none of her students had phones. By 2013, 95 percent did. She’s spent the 10 years since leaving the classroom studying what happens to kids and families when tech changes everything. “I still remember an analog childhood,” she told the audi-ence. But today’s kids won’t – unless we make sure that some of that old-fashioned, engage-with-the-world time is deliber-ately preserved. But at the mo-ment? Parents are overwhelmed, as are schools. At home, parents are nding it extremely tough to pry their kids from screens. “There’s a myth that ‘My child should be able to get off-screen without a melt-down,’” said Cherkin. “But it’s not a fair ght.” Tech companies have studied what makes an activity sticky and applied those lessons with a vengeance. The endless scroll? The fact that one video leads instantly to another? The pings and likes and emojis? All those are part of what is called “pervasive design,” or what Cherkin calls “manipulative tech” – a mashup of psychology and technology designed to keep you engaged. And just as it’s hard to drag a gambler from the slot machines – next time could be a winner! – it’s hard to drag our kids from their screens. (And us from our emails.) There’s a reason drug dealers use the same term for their clients as tech companies do: “users.” Both are dedicated to creating addiction. The upshot is a phenom dubbed “displacement” – activities on-line displacing activities in real life. That doesn’t mean all online time is meaningless or evil. But it does mean that other things are getting squeezed out. For kids, those things include playing in real life, exploring in real life and being with their families. How can parents make sure tech doesn’t displace too much of those? Cherkin doesn’t say to pull the plug tomorrow and go live in a yurt. But she does have some suggestions that strike me as realistic. First, if you haven’t given your child a smartphone yet, wait as long as you can. Your kids may fear they are missing out. But ironically, the FOMO that hits once kids do get a phone is even worse. Now they can see every event they weren’t at – as well as every other fun thing in the world that they’re not part of. If your kids already do have phones, you can set limits, even if you haven’t to date. For instance, if you don’t want the phones at dinner anymore, you can simply say, “I forgot to teach you that...” and ll in the blank: “I forgot to teach you that phones have no place at the table.” Or: “Phones don’t belong in the bedroom at night.” Or whatever you now think makes sense. Schools, too, can help keep kids focused and actually hap-pier by not allowing phone use during the school day. Cherkin cited a study that found kids doing worse on a math test when phones were on their desks – or even in their backpacks. The dis-traction was too great. They have no place in the classroom. Then, bring back what was displaced. Keep schools open for mixed-age, no-phones free play in the afternoon or even before school. (Here’s a free guide on how to do that.) What a simple way for kids to have fun – and arguments and everything else de velopmentally rich – in real life. Displace some screentime and when our kids grow up, they’ll have some analog memories from back in the day. Then they can worry about making sure their own kids have some, too. Lenore Skenazy is president of Let Grow, a contributing writer at Reason.com. O Dreams or nightmares? The ultimate dream job would be a housekeeper and waitress in the U.S. Some girls as young as 14 were promised this and much more in America. But after they crossed the border, their “bosses” confiscated their false travel doc uments. They were told that they could be arrested and deported as illegal immigrants. These bosses forced them to pay the $2,000 transportation fees through pros titution. Usually their work days lasted 12 or more hours. Their bosses added charges as room and board to the original trans portation fees. It became almost impossible to repay. Escape attempts were met with rape and beatings. So their dreams of free dom became a dark nightmare. Though the story above is not totally real. Many parts of the narrative are real and are faced by many young women and even children who make the treach erous border crossings. Many of these victims are physically imprisoned. Others are controlled by other means of drugs or alco hol. Some gangs in the countries where these victim’s families reside threaten the families if they report their activities. Intimida tion is used to keep these victims under their control. Here are some startling statis tics: more than 50,000 women and children are part of sex trafficking in the U.S. annually. Interpol estimates 35,000 women are trafficked out of Colombia annually. In Guatemala City alone, there are over 600 brothels with upwards of 2,000 children being exploited. Brazil has one of the largest trafficking prostitution groups, according to the United Nations, of over 500,000 girls who traffic the gold mine regions of the Amazon. Trafficking of children need not be only for prostitution. Girls may be trafficked for forced marriages. Boys may be trafficked for forced labor or recruitment into gangs and armed groups. Organ traf ficking is a lucrative business and usually involves killing the victim to harvest the organs. Ultimate sacrifice of a young child coming to a country for a better life. The United States is one of the most active sex trafficking coun tries in the world, where exploita tion of trafficking victims occurs in cities, suburban and rural areas. Labor trafficking occurs in the U.S., but at lower rates than most developing countries. Human trafficking may be difficult to spot. However if something looks unusual and suspect, you can report it to the National Human Trafficking Hotline (1-888-373-7888). Let’s keep their dreams alive and end these nightmares. Ellie Brahe Lecanto Habitat volunteers’ backbone of our mission Volunteers are the backbone of many nonprofit organizations, especially Habitat for Humanity of Citrus County. Our volunteers work hand-in-hand and side-by-side with partner families and employees, helping dozens of families each year achieve their dream of safe, affordable home ownership. Without our volunteers, our goal of building 30 homes per year at Habitat at Citrus Springs would be difficult. Our volunteers answer our call for help on a daily basis, whether its in our two ReStores or at our construction site. With that in mind, HFHCC on Wednesday, April 26, honored more than four dozen volunteers for their efforts not just in 2022, but throughout the years, at our Volunteer Appreciation Brunch at Inverness Golf & Country Club. The staff at Inverness Golf & Country Club were welcoming and provided an environment that felt just like “home” for our staff and volunteers. The meal was delicious and filling. In 2022, HFHCC volunteers contributed 8,705 hours to our mission. All told, our volunteers have a combined 127.5 years of experience with HFHCC. During their lifetime, they have donated more than 43,000 hours of service to our organization. At Wednesday’s event, we rec ognized nine volunteers for their years of service. Five-year pins were given to Dwight Hooper; Mark Casper; Joe Bassett; Marianne Kilgore, Janet Mink; Tim Smith; Marty Cliff; and Nancy O’Neal; while a 20-year pin was given to Bar bara Rezac. Not only does Ms. Rezac volunteer her time in our ReStores, she is also a past pres ident of the HFHCC Board of Directors. Over the 20 years of volunteering for HFHCC, Ms. Rezac has logged 8,667 volunteer hours. Volunteers were provided special gifts from HFHCC, but thanks to a number of local businesses each volunteer was awarded a door prize. We greatly appreciate the following busi nesses that generously donated items to make our volunteers feel extra special. Those businesses were: Ace Hardware in Inverness; HNR Gunworks; Culvers in Inver ness; Seafood Seller; Cinnamon Sticks; Kelly’s Half Shell; Hunter Springs Kayak; The Bistro Pizza Kitchen; Brothers Pizza; Brook lyn Deli Too; Citrus Springs Golf & Country Club; Courthouse Café; Flower Time; Applbees; Citrus Memorial Health Founda tion YMCA; Cattle Dog Coffee Roasters; Auto Zone; Outback Steakhouse; Main Street Hair Studio; Rebecca’s Beauty Salon; Julie Mancini Photography; Fresh Start Doughnuts; Mama’s Kuntry Café; and, Captain Mike’s Swim ming with the Manatees.

The S&P 500 rose 34.13, or 0.8 percent, to 4,169.48. Despite some sharp swings this week, it still clinched a second straight winning month. The Dow Jones In dustrial Average climbed 272.00, or 0.8 percent, to 34,098.16, and the Nasdaq composite gained 84.35, or 0.7 percent, to 12,226.58. Exxon Mobil did some of the marketÂ’s heavier lifting after it rose 1.3 percent. It reported stronger prot and revenue for the latest quar ter than forecast. Intel gained 4 percent af ter reporting a milder loss than expected and stronger revenue for the latest quar ter. Mondelez International, the food giant behind Oreo and Ritz, rose 3.9 percent after topping Wall StreetÂ’s estimates. It also raised its forecast for revenue and earnings over the full year. They helped to offset a 4 percent drop for Amazon, which weighed heavily on the market despite reporting stronger prot and revenue for the latest quarter than expected. Analysts pointed to a slowdown in revenue growth at its AWS cloud computing business. Snap tumbled 17 percent after its revenue for the latest quarter fell short of forecasts. Pinterest also fell sharply, down 15.7 percent, despite reporting stronger results than expected. An alysts pointed to its growth forecast for the current quar ter, which looked more tepid than some expected. Wall Street has focused heavily on what CEOs are saying about their upcom ing trends given how much uncertainty is ahead about where the economy and in terest rates are heading. The economy is slowing under the weight of much higher interest rates meant to get high ination under control. The majority of companies so far this reporting season have beaten expectations, highlighted by Big Tech be hemoths this past week like Microsoft, Alphabet and Meta Platforms. They have an outsized effect on mar ket indexes because of their massive size. But the bar broadly was set considerably low for the rst three months of the year. Wall Street is worried that continued weakness could lead to a third straight drop in earnings for S&P 500 companies in the second quarter of the year. Recent economic reports have kept expectations in place on Wall Street for the Federal Reserve to raise in terest rates again at its next meeting next week. A report on Friday said the ination measure that the Fed prefers to use came in close to expectations for March, but it remains well above the target. Compensation for workers also rose more during the rst three months of the year than economists expected. While thatÂ’s welcome news for workers trying to keep up with still-rising prices at registers, the Fed fears that could help make high ina tion more entrenched. are parked in the re lane with their emergency ash-ers going, but he doesnÂ’t bother them. I tried to call the sheriffÂ’s department; nobody answered the phone. I called the sheriffÂ’s ofce to le a complaint, he transferred me to a department where nobody answered the phone. Is there anybody working at the sheriffÂ’s department? This is really pathetic and sad.Wake up peopleI think itÂ’s a shame that I have to even say this, but I think a lot of people have forgotten 9/11 and the devastation and the attacks on our country. During that time frame, with all the people coming in over the border, we already had sleeper cells here, little terrorist cells scattered all throughout the country. You can guarantee that theyÂ’re there, and there are more coming over the border ev-ery day. And those people are going to hook up with their counterparts in these little sleeper cells and then weÂ’re going to start having these little terrorist attacks right here on our own turf, in our own backyard, right here at the Circle K, right here at Walmart. TheyÂ’re coming. If we donÂ’t do something to stop this mess, the fentanyl, the vi-olence, the human trafck-ing, when are people going to wake up? What has to happen?My deepest sympathies Â…Deepest sympathies to all the Tucker Carlson fans. It must be truly painful losing your largest source of lies and conspiracy theories about our government. Hopefully, his stating off-air that he hated Trump and the election wasnÂ’t stolen will make it hurt a little less.We all have our own opinionsThis is in response to Sheriff Prendergast posting on Facebook page that he would rather be an Ameri-can than a Democrat. Good for him, so would I. And whatÂ’s wrong with him saying that? EveryoneÂ’s al-lowed to have their opinion. ThatÂ’s why we love Sound Off, it gives everybody a chance to say what they think, an American right that is soon going to be lost if we arenÂ’t careful.Flying for dollarsThe elected Sheriff, Mike Prendergast, has purchased two helicopters. Fuel is $500,000 per year. He runs tours overhead nightly. How is this of value? Are we in the green zone of Iraq?Thank you Susan QuenelleIÂ’d like to thank the writer, Susan Quenelle, for her article on grief, “Surviving the year of the rsts.” It has been six years since my loved one died. I was with him. We were married over 60 years. IÂ’m 87 and I still feel the pain. I read the article and it was like I was writing it myself. Thank you so much.Misunderstanding about word “impeached”There seems to be a misunderstanding about impeaching a president. The House of Representa-tives may le charges based on the opinion that the president has committed a crime. He or she is only charged, not found guilty. The president is then tried by the Senate, and they can convict or drop the charges. Only three previous presi-dents have been impeached and none have been found guilty.Thank you for filling inI was so pleased this morning to see a Citrus County SheriffÂ’s Deputy on Forest Ridge Boulevard at the school zone. I thought that was quite amazing. I donÂ’t think itÂ’s going to become a habit. I think he was replacing a school crossing guard who didnÂ’t show up today, but I thank the Citrus County SheriffÂ’s Ofce anyways.Interfering with the Catholic ChurchFor those who donÂ’t believe government is involved and inltrating religion, then why is the FBI spying on the Catholic Church and their stance on abortion, LGBTQ+ community and labeling the church traditionalists has domestic terrorists? They say theyÂ’re doing it to protect the liberal Catholics from the traditionalists. Seems to me that thereÂ’s an awful lot of interference here.Thank you for excellent LetterExcellent Letter to the Editor on Tuesday, April 25, by Richard Musgrove, “The road to mediocrity.” Excellent.

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 A9N & W CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLEArmy grounds aviators for training after fatal crashes By BECKY BOHRER Associated Press JUNEAU, Alaska — The U.S. Army has grounded aviation units for training after 12 soldiers died within the last month in helicopter crashes in Alaska and Ken tucky, the military branch announced Friday. The suspension of air operations was effective immediately, with units grounded until they com plete the training, said Lt. Col. Terence Kelley, an Army spokesperson. For active-duty units, the train ing is to take place between May 1 and 5. Army Nation al Guard and Reserve units will have until May 31 to complete the training. “The move grounds all Army aviators, except those participating in crit ical missions, until they complete the required training,” the Army said in a statement. On Thursday, two Army helicopters collided near Healy, Alaska, killing three soldiers and injuring a fourth. The aircraft from the 1st Attack Battalion, 25th Aviation Regiment at Fort Wainwright, near Fairbanks, were returning from training at the time of the crash, according to the Army. The unit is part of the 11th Airborne Division, which is nicknamed the “Arctic Angels.” Military investigators were making their way to Alaska’s interior, with a team from Fort Novosel, Alabama, expected to ar rive at the crash site by Sat urday, said John Pennell, a spokesperson for the U.S. Army Alaska. Little new information about the crash was released Friday. The Army on Thursday said two of the soldiers died at the site and the third on the way to a hospital in Fairbanks. The injured fourth soldier was taken to a hospital and was in stable condition Friday, Pennell said. The names of those who were killed were not immediately released. “The safety of our aviators is our top priority, and this stand down is an import ant step to make certain we are doing everything pos sible to prevent accidents and protect our personnel,” Army Chief of Staff James McConville said of the de cision to ground ight units for training. The crash is the second accident involving military helicopters in Alaska this year. In February, two sol diers were injured when an Apache helicopter rolled after taking off from Talk eetna. The aircraft was one of four traveling to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richard son in Anchorage from Fort Wainwright. In March, nine soldiers were killed when two U.S. Army Black Hawk medi cal evacuation helicopters crashed during a routine nighttime training exercise about 30 miles northeast of Fort Campbell, Kentucky. The Army said that while Thursday’s crash and the one in Kentucky remain un der investigation, “there is no indication of any pattern between the two mishaps.” Eve Baker / Fort Wainwright Public Affairs Office The main entry point to U.S. Army Garrison Alaska Fort Wai n wright on April 5 in Fairbanks, Alaska.New government report blames airlines for most flight cancellations By DAVID KOENIG AP Airlines Writer Congressional investiga tors said in a report Friday that an increase in ight cancellations as travel re covered from the pandemic was due mostly to factors that airlines controlled, in cluding cancellations for maintenance issues or lack of a crew. The Government Ac countability Ofce also said airlines are taking longer to recover from disruptions such as storms. Surges in cancellations in late 2021 and early 2022 lasted lon ger than they did before the pandemic, the GAO said. Much of the increase in airline-caused cancellations has occurred at budget air lines, but the largest carriers have also made more un forced errors, according to government data. Airlines have clashed with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over blame for high rates of canceled and delayed ights in the past two years. Airlines ar gue that the government is at fault for not having enough air trafc control lers, while Buttigieg has blamed the carriers. The GAO report was re quested by Republican lead ers of the House Transporta tion Committee. The GAO said it examined ight data from January 2018 through April 2022 to understand why travelers suffered more delays and cancellations as travel began to recover from the pandemic. The GAO said weather was the leading cause of cancellations in the two years before the pandem ic, but the percentage of airline-caused cancella tions began increasing in early 2021. From October through December 2021, airlines caused 60 percent or more of cancellations – higher that at any time in 2018 or 2019. At the time, airlines were understaffed. The airlines took $54 billion in taxpay er money to keep employ ees on the job through the pandemic, but they reduced workers anyway by paying them incentives to quit. As travel rebounded, the airlines struggled to replace thousands of departed work ers. They now have more workers than in 2019 – and the cancellation rate this year is lower than during the same period in 2019, ac cording to data from track ing service FlightAware. A spokeswoman for trade group Airlines for America said the majority of cancel lations this year have been caused by severe weather and air trafc control out ages – about 1,300 ights were canceled in one day because of an outage in a Federal Aviation Adminis tration safety-alerting sys tem. “Carriers have taken re sponsibility for challeng es within their control and continue working diligently to improve operational re liability as demand for air travel rapidly returns,” said the spokeswoman, Hannah Walden. “This includes launching aggressive, suc cessful hiring campaigns for positions across the indus try and reducing schedules in response to the FAA’s stafng shortages.” Several airlines agreed to reduce schedules in New York this summer at the re quest of the FAA, which has a severe shortage of control lers at a key facility on Long Island.

Three children were among the dead. The missile attacks includ ed the rst one against Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, in nearly two months, although there were no reports of any tar gets hit. The city government said Ukraine’s air force inter cepted 11 cruise missiles and two unmanned aerial vehi cles over Kyiv. The strikes on the nine-sto ry residential building in central Ukraine occurred in Uman, a city located around 134 miles south of Kyiv. Twenty-one people died in that attack, according to Ukraine’s National Police. They included two 10-yearold children and a toddler. Another of the victims was a 75-year-old woman who lived in a neighboring building and suffered inter nal bleeding from the huge blast’s shock wave, accord ing to emergency personnel at the scene. The Ukrainian national police said 17 people were wounded and three children were rescued from the rub ble. Nine were hospitalized. The bombardment was no where near the war’s sprawl ing front lines or active com bat zones in eastern Ukraine, where a grinding war of at trition has taken hold. Mos cow has frequently launched long-range missile attacks during the 14-month war, often indiscriminately hitting civilian areas. Ukrainian ofcials and analysts have alleged such strikes are part of a deliber ate intimidation strategy by the Kremlin. The Russian Defense Min istry said the long-range cruise missiles launched overnight were aimed at places where Ukrainian mil itary reserve units were stay ing before their deployment to the battleeld. “The strike has achieved its goal. All the designated facil ities have been hit,” Lt. Gen. Igor Konashenkov, the De fense Ministry’s spokesper son, said. He didn’t mention any specic areas or residen tial buildings getting hit. Survivors recounted terri fying moments as the mis siles hit. Halyna, a building resident, said she and her husband were covered in glass by the blast. They saw ames outside their window and scrambled out, but rst Halyna checked whether her friend in a neighboring apart ment was OK. “I was calling, calling her (on the phone), but she didn’t pick up. I even rang the doorbell, but still no answer,” she told The As sociated Press. She used the spare keys from her friend’s apartment and went inside to check on her. She found her lying dead on her apart ment oor.

BECK and JAMES POLLARD Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. — Abortion bans in deeply conservative Nebraska and South Carolina both fell short of advancing in close legislative votes amid heat ed debates among Republi cans, yet another sign that abortion is becoming a dif cult issue for the GOP. In Nebraska, where abortion is banned after 20 weeks of pregnancy, an effort to ban abortion about the sixth week of pregnancy fell one vote short of breaking a libus ter. Cheers erupted outside the legislative chamber as the last vote was cast, with opponents of the bill waving signs and chant ing, “Whose house? Our house!” In South Carolina, law makers voted 22-21 to shelve a proposed near-to tal abortion ban for the rest of the year. Republican Sen. Sandy Senn criticized Majority Leader Shane Massey for repeatedly “taking us off a cliff on abortion.” “The only thing that we can do when you all, you men in the chamber, met aphorically keep slapping women by raising abortion again and again and again, is for us to slap you back with our words,” she said. The Nebraska propos al, backed by Republican Gov. Jim Pillen, is unlikely to move forward this year. And in South Carolina, where abortion remains legal through 22 weeks of pregnancy, the vote marked the third time a near-total abortion ban has failed in the Republican-led Senate chamber since the U.S. Su preme Court reversed Roe v. Wade last summer. The state has increasing ly served patients across a region where Republi can ofcials have other wise curtailed access to abortion. Six Republicans helped block motions to end debate and defeated any chance the bill will pass this year.Biden plan aims to stem border migration as restrictions end By REBECCA SANTANA, COLLEEN LONG and ELLIOT SPAGAT Associated Press WASHINGTON — With COVID-19 immigration restrictions set to expire, the Biden administration on Thursday announced measures meant to stop migrants from illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, both by cracking down on many of those who do come, and by cre ating new pathways meant to offer an alternative to the dangerous journey. The effort includes open ing processing centers out side the United States for people eeing violence and poverty to apply to y in legally and settle in the United States, Spain or Canada. The rst process ing centers will open in Guatemala and Colombia, with others expected to follow. The administration also plans to swiftly screen mi grants seeking asylum at the border itself, quickly deport those deemed as not being qualied, and pe nalizing people who cross illegally into the U.S. or illegally through another country on their way to the U.S. border. But it is unclear whether the measures will do much to slow the tide of migrants eeing countries marred by political and economic strife. Further increasing the pressure is the loom ing end of public health rules instituted amid the pandemic that allowed for quickly expelling many migrants and set to expire on May 11. “This is a hemispheric challenge that demands hemispheric solutions,” said Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro May orkas during a news con ference as he laid out how the U.S. is working with other countries in the re gion. Mayorkas also warned that migrants and human smugglers should not in terpret the upcoming dead line to mean that everyone should come: ”Let me be clear, our border is not open and will not be open after May 11.”EPA allows gasoline with higher ethanol blend during summer By SCOTT MCFETRIDGE Associated Press DES MOINES, Iowa — Fuel stations throughout the country will be able to sell gasoline blended with 15 percent ethanol during the summer under an emergency waiver issued Friday by the Environ mental Protection Agency in a move that could re duce prices at the pump and boost demand for the Midwest-based ethanol in dustry. The EPA framed its de cision as a way to reduce gasoline prices at a time of market supply uncer tainty because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The agency said its action also encourages U.S. energy independence and supports American agriculture and manufacturing. “Allowing E15 sales during the summer driving season will not only help increase fuel supply, but support American farmers, strengthen U.S. energy se curity, and provide relief to drivers across the coun try,” EPA Administrator Michael Regan said in a statement. Most gasoline sold in the U.S. is blended with 10 percent ethanol and the higher 15 percent blend hasn’t been allowed in the summer because of con cerns it could worsen smog during hot weather. The EPA said its analysis shows allowing sales of the higher blend shouldn’t have a signicant impact on air quality. The agency estimated that E15 blends cost about 25 cents less per gallon at the pump than E10 blends. The U.S. Department of Energy has found that ve hicles will travel 3 percent to 4 percent fewer miles on E10 and 4 percent to 5 percent less on E15 than on 100 percent gasoline. Ethanol policy is espe cially important in the Midwest, where most of the roughly 200 renewable fuel plants are located.

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 A11R CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLEHope for ‘not better’ timesI n a recent Christianity Today interview with Chris Davis, a pastor in Virginia, Davis told the story of a much-anticipated two-month sabbatical. He had been a pastor for 10 years and had been going through health problems and fami-ly struggles. “Our daily goal was simply to make it to that day when the sabbatical would set every-thing right,” Davis said. However, when the sabbatical came, not every-thing was set right. He still had health problems and they still had family struggles. “What happened was we took ourselves on sabbatical with us,” he said. “Which meant that very little changed over those two months. “I wish I knew why humans expect things to get better. I’d like to think that it is an ingrained sense that God is at work to make all things new in the world,” he said. In the nal pages of the Bible, God speaks from the throne of heaven and says, “Behold, I am making all things new” (Revela-tion 21:5). It’s something the pastors at my church talk about frequently in their sermons: One day, after the end of this age, God promises a new heaven and a new earth, an eternity of harmony among his people, no more death, no more sickness, no more war and pover-ty, addiction or homelessness. However, we don’t live there yet.We live in a world where nothing ever remains the same and everything deteriorates over time. And yet, there’s something about us humans that keeps us think-ing things will get better here on earth, that we can build a utopia. But even if we build it, we will still “take ourselves with us” only to discover our utopia isn’t utopia after all. As humans, we want things to be better, and as Christians we know that God has promised “all things new” when Jesus returns. But what do we do until then?How do we live in the “not better?” What is our hope, not for the future, but for the now when things don’t work and may very well only get worse? As I was thinking about how to answer these questions, I thought about people who work in hospice care, how their vocation and their purpose and contribution to the world is all about making people’s nal days more comfortable, lift-ing burdens and easing the stress of the patients and their families. But not just that.Over the years I’ve written quite a few stories from hospice facilities, about last wishes and moments of joy. In 2010, a man in hospice care with end-stage COPD married “the woman he let slip away” 40 years earlier, and in 2011, I wrote about another hospice wedding for a couple who had been together 34 years. The bride, her body riddled with cancer, said it was her dream to be an “old married couple” before she died. I think of the woman who plays her dulcimer at the bedside of sick and dying people, bringing calm and tranquility through her soothing music. To me, those are pictures of hope in the midst of “not better,” pictures of what God’s people do in a world that’s in the process of decline. It’s not futile to plant gardens and play music and create art. A wedding for a woman who may die before her one-month or one-week anniversary isn’t frivolous. When you bring grace into a situation, you receive grace. Mercy is given to the merciful. Helping others helps you.One day there will be no more sorrow or pain. But in the mean time, while we wait, there’s still hope for the now and the “not better” because God promises his people: “For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, ‘Do not fear, I will help you’” (Isaiah 41:13). And he does. Nancy Kennedy can be reached at 352564-2927 or by email at nkennedy @chronicleonline.com. What Socrates’ ‘know nothing’ wisdom can teach a polarized America By J.W. TRAPHAGAN The University of Texas at Austin Editor’s note: The Conversa tion is an independent and non prot source of news, analysis and commentary from academic experts. A common complaint in Amer ica today is that politics and even society as a whole are broken. Critics point out endless lists of what should be xed: the com plexity of the tax code, or immi gration reform, or the inefcien cy of government. But each dilemma usually comes down to polarized dead lock between two competing visions and everyone’s convic tion that theirs is the right one. Perhaps this white-knuckled insistence on being right is the root cause of the societal ssure – why everything seems so irrep arably wrong. As religion and philosophy scholars, we would argue that our apparent national impasse points to a lack of “epistemic humili ty,” or intellectual humility – that is, an inability to acknowledge, empathize with and ultimately compromise with opinions and perspectives different from one’s own. In other words, Americans have stopped listening. So why is intellectual humility in such scarce supply? Of course, the quickest answer might be the right one: that humility runs against most people’s fear of being mis taken, and the zero-sum view that being right means someone else has to be totally wrong. But we think that the problem is more complex and perhaps more interesting. We believe epistemic humility presents something of a twofold danger that makes being humble frightening – and has, ever since Socrates rst put it at the heart of Western philosophy.Knowing you don’t knowIf your best friend told you that you were the wisest of all human beings, perhaps you would be in clined to smile in agreement and take the dear friend for a beer. But when the ancient Athenian Soc rates was delivered this news, he responded with sincere and utter disbelief – even though his friend had conrmed it with the Delphic oracle, the fortune-telling author ity of the ancient world. This nascent humility – “No, get out of here, I’m denitely not the wisest” – helped spark what be came arguably the greatest phil osophical life of all time. Despite relative old age, Socrates imme diately embarked on a journey to nd someone wiser than himself and spent many days seeking out the sages of the ancient world, a quest Plato recounts in his “Apol ogy of Socrates.” The problem? He discovered that the sages thought they knew more than they actually did. Eventually, Socrates concluded that he himself was, in fact, the wisest of all men, because at least he “knew that he didn’t know.” This is not to say that Socrates knew nothing: He demonstrates time and again that he knows a lot and routinely demonstrated good judgment. Rather, he ac knowledged there were denite limitations to the knowledge he could claim. This is the birth of “epistemic humility” in Western philosophy: the acknowledgment that one’s blind spots and shortcomings are an invitation for ongoing intellec tual investigation and growth.Provoking the powerfulBut this mindset can feel dan gerous to other people – especial ly if they feel absolutely certain in their convictions. In ancient Athens, as much as in the U.S. today, being perceived as right translated into money and power. The city-state’s culture was dominated by the Sophists, who taught rhetoric to nobles and politicians, and the Poets, ancient playwrights. Greek theater and epic poetry were closely related to religion, and their creators were treated as mouthpieces for aes thetic and moral truth. What’s more, theater and poetry were also major moneymakers, which motivated artists to adopt a mentality of “fail fast, fail better,” with an eye to eventually proving correct and getting paid. By critically interrogating the idols and polarized views of his culture, Socrates threatened the power holders of his city. A con stantly questioning gure is a direct threat to individuals who spend their lives defending un questioned belief – whether it’s belief in themselves, their superi ors or their gods. Take Euthyphro, for example, one of Socrates’ principal inter locutors. Euthyphro is so sure that he knows the difference between right and wrong that he is bring ing his own father to trial. Socra tes quickly disabuses him of his certainty, famously debating him about the true meaning of piety. Or take Meletus, the man who eventually brought Socrates to trial on accusations of corrupting youth. In Plato’s account of the trial, it takes Socrates no time to show this “good patriot,” as Mele tus calls himself, that he does not understand what patriotism truly means. Without any pretensions to knowing the absolute truth, Socrates is able to shed light on the underlying assumptions around him. It’s frustrating to read the Pla tonic dialogues, the works of phi losophy that recount Socrates’ life and teaching, in part because Soc rates rarely claims the nal word on any subject. In short, he gives more questions than answers. But what remains constant is his open ness to uncertainty that keeps his inquiry on the move, pushing his inquiries further and deeper.Paying the priceThe second danger of epistemic humility is now probably in view. It’s the danger that Socrates faced when he was brought to trial for corrupting Athens’ youth – the danger to the humble skeptics themselves. He is brought up on two very serious charges. The rst was an accusation that he taught students to make the weaker argument ap pear to be the stronger – which is actually what the Sophists did, not Socrates. The second was that he had invented new gods – again, he didn’t do that; poets and playwrights did. What was he really guilty of? Perhaps only this: Socrates crit icized the arrogant self-assertion of his culture’s inuencers, and they brought him to trial, which concluded in his death sentence. Socrates taught that being humble about one’s own views was a necessary step in search ing for truth – perhaps the most essential one. That was and perhaps still is a revolutionary view, because it forces us to challenge preconceived ideas about what we believe, what we worship and where we tap meaning. He placed himself in the middle of Athenians’ sharp ly polarized debates about what truth and goodness were, and he was the one who got hit. “Humility like darkness,” wrote American philosopher Henry Da vid Thoreau, “reveals the heaven ly lights.” Put another way, hu mility about the verity, accuracy and wisdom of one’s ideas can reveal the fact that others have understandable reasons for think ing as they do – as long as you try to see the world as they are seeing it. In contrast, arrogance tends to extinguish the “heavenly light” about what we still don’t fully understand. Being humble about one’s position in the world is not an invitation for a post-truth, any thing-goes opinion free-for-all. Truth – the idea of truth – mat ters. And we can pursue it togeth er, if we are always open to being wrong.

Paredes drove Kendall Graveman’s second pitch deep to left for his fourth homer. He also doubled twice and scored twice. Rookie Kevin Kelly, the last of ve Tampa Bay re lievers, got the nal out for his rst career save. Colin Poche (2-0) got the win af ter the bullpen surrendered just one hit in the nal four innings. The AL East-leading Rays won for the eighth time in 10 games. Chicago has dropped nine in a row for the fran chise’s longest skid since it lost 10 straight games in 2013. Jake Burger and Andrew Vaughn homered for the White Sox. Lucas Giolito was charged with two runs and eight hits in 6 2 / 3 in nings. Graveman (1-2) has al lowed one run in each of his last two appearances. Brandon Lowe hit a sac rice y in the rst for Tampa Bay, and Manuel Margot tied it at 2 with a two-out RBI single in the fourth. The Rays improved to 5-0 against the White Sox this season. They swept a three-game series in St. Petersburg last weekend and won the opener of this four-game set on Thursday night.

By MATT PFIFFNER Sports editor A new era in Citrus High football has kicked off with the arrival of head coach Josh Ross and spring foot ball. Last weekend at Flori da Cracker Monkey Bar in Homosassa, the public had a chance to meet the new coach, along with the coaching staff and players. Ross, an assistant the past season at Pasco High School in Dade City and a 2009 graduate of Hernando High School, was select ed in February to replace McKinley Franklin, who stepped down in November after three years on the job. There was a great turnout for the meet and greet event, hosted by the CHS unof cial Parent Club, where Ross had a chance to share some of his thoughts about taking over the Hurricane program. “It truly is an honor to be a part of this organization and this community,” he said. “There’s a reason why I sought this job out when the opportunity came. I wanted to bring some of my expe riences and some of what I am to Inverness and help that grow into what Citrus High School should always be and should have always been. That’s one of the top programs in the entire state and actually beating anyone around the entire country. “The potential in this com munity and the type of indi viduals, looking out who I see here today, and that makes it ring true, is just top class. This is one of the best areas in the entire state of Florida. I am so honored to be here.” Ross said among the im provements he’s looking to help bring are new Under Armour uniforms and an upgrade to the weight room, which would benet every one in the school, not just the football program. “Part of that vision going forward is creating an orga nization and a program that our kids want to be a part of. Giving them something day in and day out that they enjoy and want to come to every single day,” Ross said.

By ROB MAADDI AP Pro Football Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Will Levis didn’t stick around to hear his name called after slipping out of the rst round. He wouldn’t have waited long. The Tennessee Titans trad ed up to get the second pick of the second round and took the Kentucky quarter back with the 33rd overall pick of the NFL draft on Friday night. Levis was expected to go in the top 15, with some draft analysts projecting him in the top ve. A few days before the draft, odd smakers even made Levis the favorite to be the second QB selected behind Bryce Young. Young went rst to Caro lina, C.J. Stroud was picked second by Houston and Anthony Richardson was selected at No. 4 by India napolis. Levis kept waiting and once the Titans passed on him at No. 11, it became a grueling night. Television cameras panned over to Le vis sitting with his girlfriend and family, staring at his phone. The Titans weren’t going to pass him up again. They were aggressive, making a deal with the Arizona Car dinals to get their guy. Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker sat until the third round before the Detroit Lions took him with the 68th overall pick. Hook er is coming off surgery for a torn ACL and the Lions have Jared Goff, who made his third Pro Bowl last sea son. The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Levis has prototypical size and athleticism. He’s got a strong arm and muscu lar build. But his accuracy and decision-making were inconsistent, especially last season when he played through injuries. Levis, who played two seasons at Kentucky af ter transferring from Penn State, won’t have to play right away in Tennessee. The Titans have veteran Ryan Tannehill. They also drafted Malik Willis in the third round last year. Hooker, like Levis, was projected to go higher in the draft. But he’s 25 years old and is returning from a knee injury. Hooker is considered the best deep-ball passer in the draft, can create plays scrambling and is a leader. He threw just ve intercep tions at Tennessee, though he fumbled 22 times. Day 2 of the draft at Union Station in downtown Kansas Levis doesn’t wait long on Day 2 of draft By TIM REYNOLDS Associated Press SUNRISE — Matthew Tkachuk scored twice, Eetu Luostarinen put Florida ahead to stay with 5:38 left in what was a crazed third period, and the Panthers forced a Game 7 in their Eastern Conference rstround series by beating the Boston Bruins 7-5 on Fri day night. Aleksander Barkov, Brandon Montour, Zac Dalpe and Sam Reinhart also scored for the Pan thers, who got 30 saves from Sergei Bobrovsky. Reinhart capped it with an empty-netter with 28 sec onds left – the seventh and nal goal of the third peri od, four of those scores by Florida. Tyler Bertuzzi and David Pastrnak each scored twice for Boston, which got four assists from Brad March and and 26 saves from Li nus Ullmark. Jake DeBrusk also scored for the Bruins. The team with the best regular-season record in NHL history took one-goal leads on two separate oc casions in the third period – and couldn’t hold either one of them. Now, they face a Game 7 on Sunday just to get into the second round against a Florida team that has already staved off elim ination twice. Not even three power-play goals and one short-handed tally was enough to give Boston a win, either. The game started along the exact sequence that Game 5 in Boston did on Wednesday night: Florida Panthers score 7, force a Game 7 against the Bruins See RAYS , page B5 See PANTHERS , page B5 See DRAFT , page B5 See CITRUS , page B5

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 B3 By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer There wonÂ’t be any more arguing with line judges over calls at tennis tourna ments on the ATP menÂ’s tour as of 2025 — because there wonÂ’t be any more line judges at those events by then. The London-based ATP announced Friday that it will use Electronic Line Calling Live – known as ELC Live – for all “out” calls in all matches begin ning two years from now. Each match still will be overseen by a chair umpire, but the line judges who used to be entrusted with deter mining where shots landed will no longer be present on court. It represents the next step toward relying on technol ogy for line calls in a pro cess that gained speed at the 2017 Next Gen ATP Finals, when ELC Live was rst tried on the menÂ’s tour. The St. Petersburg, Flor ida-based WTA womenÂ’s tennis tour has not made any announcements regard ing any plans for electronic calls at its tournaments. A WTA spokesperson wrote in an email to The Associ ated Press on Friday: “This is something that we have been reviewing and are very interested in.” Line judges were used at fewer and fewer sites during the coronavirus pandemic that began in 2020, includ ing at the Australian Open and U.S. Open, Grand Slam tournaments that are not run by the ATP and thus do not need to adhere to the tourÂ’s policies. Electronic systems have been used mainly on hard courts and grass courts, but the ATP said its new policy will include every surface, including clay courts. Some in the sport, includ ing the French Open, where main-draw play begins on May 28, have resisted switching away from hu mans making calls because tennis balls leave marks in the clay that can be used to determine where a shot hit the ground. “This is a landmark mo ment for our sport, and not one weÂ’ve reached without careful consideration. Tra dition is core to tennis and line judges have played an important part in the game over the years,” ATP CEO Andrea Gaudenzi said. “That said, we have a re sponsibility to embrace innovation and new tech nologies,” Gaudenzi add ed. “Our sport deserves the most accurate form of of ciating.”Electronic line calls at all ATP menÂ’s tennis events by 2025 GOLF Mexico Open at Vidanta Friday At The Norman Course at Vidanta Vallarta Vallarta, Mexico Purse: $7.7 million Yardage: 7,456; Par: 71 Second Round Tony Finau 65-64—129 -13 Erik Van Rooyen 64-66—130 -12 Brandon Wu 66-64—130 -12 Akshay Bhatia 68-65—133 -9 Eric Cole 65-68—133 -9 Will Gordon 67-66—133 -9 Andrew Putnam 67-66—133 -9 Austin Smotherman 63-70—133 -9 Cameron Champ 68-66—134 -8 Ben Martin 68-66—134 -8 Jimmy Walker 67-67—134 -8 Tano Goya 64-71—135 -7 Beau Hossler 67-68—135 -7 Michael Kim 68-67—135 -7 Taylor Pendrith 65-70—135 -7 Raul Pereda 65-70—135 -7 Jon Rahm 67-68—135 -7 Trevor Werbylo 67-68—135 -7 Austin Cook 66-70—136 -6 Emiliano Grillo 68-68—136 -6 Stephan Jaeger 65-71—136 -6 Chez Reavie 68-68—136 -6 Greyson Sigg 72-64—136 -6 Alejandro Tosti 69-67—136 -6 Derek Ernst 68-69—137 -5 Brice Garnett 68-69—137 -5 Cody Gribble 68-69—137 -5 Lanto Grifn 68-69—137 -5 Scott Piercy 72-65—137 -5 Ben Taylor 67-70—137 -5 Carl Yuan 69-68—137 -5 Aaron Baddeley 70-68—138 -4 Jonas Blixt 71-67—138 -4 Joseph Bramlett 68-70—138 -4 Harry Hall 67-71—138 -4 Charley Hoffman 71-67—138 -4 Nicolai Hojgaard 67-71—138 -4 Mark Hubbard 68-70—138 -4 Seonghyeon Kim 69-69—138 -4 Adam Long 70-68—138 -4 Francesco Molinari 68-70—138 -4 Vincent Norrman 67-71—138 -4 Geoff Ogilvy 70-68—138 -4 Carson Young 67-71—138 -4 LIV Golf Orlando Friday At Sentosa Golf Club Singapore Purse: $25 million Yardage: 7,423 Par: 71 First Round Talor Gooch 64-64 -7 Cameron Tringale 65-65 -6 Sergio Garcia 65-65 -6 Brooks Koepka 65-65 -6 Cameron Smith 65-65 -6 Bryson DeChambeau 66-66 -5 Phil Mickelson 66-66 -5 Louis Oosthuizen 66-66 -5 Charl Schwartzel 67-67 -4 Mito Pereira 67-67 -4 Jason Kokrak 67-67 -4 Patrick Reed 67-67 -4 Danny Lee 68-68 -3 Kevin Na 68-68 -3 Dean Burmester 69-69 -2 Peter Uihlein 69-69 -2 Marc Leishman 69-69 -2 Scott Vincent 69-69 -2 Charles Howell III 69-69 -2 Henrik Stenson 69-69 -2 Dustin Johnson 69-69 -2 David Puig 70-70 -1 Matt Jones 70-70 -1 Thomas Pieters 70-70 -1 Jediah Morgan 70-70 -1 James Piot 70-70 -1 Richard Bland 70-70 -1 Sihwan Kim 70-70 -1 Laurie Canter 70-70 -1 Lee Westwood 70-70 -1 Bubba Watson 70-70 -1 Branden Grace 70-70 -1 Joaquin Niemann 70-70 -1 Harold Varner III 71-71 E Eugenio Chacarra 71-71 E Bernd Wiesberger 71-71 E Ian Poulter 71-71 E Anirban Lahiri 72-72 +1 Chase Koepka 72-72 +1 Abraham Ancer 72-72 +1 Martin Kaymer 72-72 +1 Pat Perez 73-73 +2 Matthew Wolff 73-73 +2 Carlos Ortiz 73-73 +2 Sebastián Muñoz 73-73 +2 Brendan Steele 74-74 +3 Graeme McDowell 74-74 +3 Paul Casey 76-76 +5 Korea Championship Friday At Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea Incheon, South Korea Purse: $2 million Yardage: 7,470 Par: 72 Second Round Sang-hyun Park, S.

He moved into position for an even better result on Friday, shooting a 7-under 64 to take a one-shot lead through two rounds. Finau, the second high est-ranked player in the eld behind world No. 1 and defending champion Jon Rahm, made ve birdies on his front nine – none from longer than 11 feet. After four straight pars, he holed a 30-footer on the par-3 fth hole for the rst of three con secutive birdies. The 33-year-old Finau was at 13-under 129 at Vidan ta Vallarta, one better than Brandon Wu – who nished alongside him in a tie for second last year – and Erik van Rooyen. Wu closed with three straight birdies for a 64; van Rooyen shot 66. Playing for the second time since his win at the Masters, Rahm hit a snag in windy afternoon conditions when his tee shot on the 142-yard, par-3 ninth hole came up short and found the water, leading to double bogey. He bogeyed the long par-4 10th, but rallied with four bird ies in his nal eight holes to shoot 68. Rahm was six shots back. “We played eight holes de cently easy compared to how windy it can get here and af ter that it got quite windy at a tough spot, right? Nine and 10 are not the easiest holes on the golf course and we caught the switch right there. I wish I could have handled that a little bit better,” Rahm said. “ItÂ’s how the golf course is supposed to play, I think. I think it was built to have some wind and thus thatÂ’s the defense.” Finau didnÂ’t have a top-15 nish last year before his tie for second at Vidanta. He later won in back-to-back weeks at the 3M Open and the Rocket Mortgage Clas sic, then picked up another win at the Houston Open last fall for his fth PGA Tour victory. Since then, he hasnÂ’t missed a cut but hasnÂ’t se riously contended, with his best nish a tie for seventh at Kapalua in January. He is 16th in the world. “Sometimes youÂ’ve got to ride the waves with your putter throughout a season. I havenÂ’t putted it great sta tistically over the last couple months, but things change fast,” Finau said. “This was a place where a lot of things changed for me last season.” Raul Pereda, a Mexico City native making his PGA Tour debut on a sponsor exemp tion, holed a 3-wood from 249 yards, the longest hole-out on tour this season, for an eagle on the 511-yard 16th. His shot landed on the front of the green and was rolling fast when it crashed into the agstick and dropped. Pereda couldnÂ’t see the result from the fairway and high-ved a camera operator when he got conrmation his ball was in the hole. He shot 70 and was six shots back. Andrew Putnam (66), Will Gordon (66), Eric Cole (69), rst-round leader Austin Smotherman (70) and Ak shay Bhatia (65) were four shots off the lead. Wu is 25 under in his last four rounds at Vidanta. “I really enjoy the course, thereÂ’s plenty of birdies out there, so if I can just focus on staying within myself, not getting too caught up in trying to win my rst time or whatever, I think I can have a good weekend,” Wu said. Van Rooyen, a South Afri can seeking his second PGA Tour victory, birdied three of his last four holes and was feeling comfortable at this resort course off the Ban deras Bay on MexicoÂ’s Pa cic coast. “Awesome little food trucks by the beach there, itÂ’s beautiful at night. A lot to love about this place,” he said. Van Rooyen took three months off last year to deal with nagging injuries, in cluding neck and lower back spasms. “ItÂ’s taken me a while to nd my ow again and nd some momentum and get on the front foot. Things seem like itÂ’s starting to turn, which is great,” he said.Gooch backs up Australian win with LIV lead in SingaporeSINGAPORE — Talor Gooch backed up his Aus tralian LIV win by taking a one-stroke lead at the edg ling tourÂ’s Singapore event. Gooch eagled the par-5 18th hole after a 90-minute rain delay to shoot 7-under 64 and lead four others at the Sentosa course – Brit ish Open champion Camer on Smith, Brooks Koepka, Sergio Garcia and Cameron Tringale. Phil Mickelson, Lou is Oosthuizen and Bryson DeChambeau were another stroke back in a tie for sixth after 66s. Gooch opened with a pair of 10-under 62s while win ning in Adelaide last week. “ThereÂ’s no pixie dust IÂ’ve thrown on the clubs the last couple weeks,” Gooch said. “ItÂ’s just the game comes and goes in waves, and hopefully we can continue to ride this wave for as long as we can and play a bunch of good golf.” Gooch, Smith and Mickel son were in a featured group which started on the rst tee in the shotgun-start format of the LIV TourÂ’s 54-hole tournaments. “It was really solid today,” Smith said. “Talor said ev eryone played well in the group, and I felt like we kept ourselves going there after the rain delay. Every one was getting a little bit tired, I think. It was a good day all in all.”Home favorite Park Sang-hyun ties lead at Korea ChampionshipINCHEON, South Korea — The Korea Champion ship has a home player atop the leaderboard after Park Sang-hyunÂ’s 25-foot putt for birdie to nish his sec ond round. Park shot a 3-under 69 and joined Yannik Paul (68) at 8 under overall at Jack Nick laus Golf Club. “I want to prove that Ko rean players can have a chance to win on the (Eu ropean) tour,” Park said. “I think other players feel the same and that is why a lot of Korean players are playing well at the moment.” Antoine Rozner started the second round with a four-stroke lead after an opening 63 but couldnÂ’t follow that up, shooting 74 – including a triple-bogey 7 at the par-4 No. 9 after go ing out of bounds – to drop into a share of third place with Mike Lorenzo-Vera (65). The two Frenchmen are one shot behind the leaders.Finau leads Mexico Open at halfway point Moises Castillo / AP Tony Finau, of the United States, watches his tees off on the 1 1th hole during the Mexico Open golf tournamentÂ’s second round on Friday in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

Youngs also hit for the cycle and added a double while going 5-for-5 and driving in five runs. 1933 – In a strange play at home plate, catcher Luke Sewell of the Washington Senators tagged out two Yankees runners on the same play. Lou Gehrig had held up, thinking a fly ball would be caught.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL STANDINGS AND SCORESTHIS DATE IN BASEBALL Segura hits game-ending single as Marlins beat CubsMIAMI (AP) — Jean Segura hit a game-ending RBI single, lifting the Mi ami Marlins to a 3-2 victo ry over the Chicago Cubs on Friday night. Jorge Soler sparked the winning rally with a lead off single. Michael Ruck er (1-1) then plunked Luis Arraez and AvisaÃl GarcÃa before Segura hit a ground er back up the middle and through a drawn-in ineld. “Every time you put a ‘WÂ’ on the board is always good,” Segura said. “ItÂ’s not about me. ItÂ’s about the team winning baseball games and playing good baseball.” Segura is in his rst sea son with Miami after nal izing a $17 million, two-year contract in January. The veteran inelder en tered FridayÂ’s game with a .203 batting average. “I donÂ’t remember having a tougher stretch,” Segura said. “At some point, it hap pens to all major leaguers. I have to continue working hard and do my best to get out of it.” A.J. Puk (3-0) got three outs for the win. Chicago put two runners on with two out in the top half of the ninth, but Nelson Velázquez bounced into a forceout at second. Miami improved to 8-0 in one-run games this season. The Marlins also are 3-0 in their teal jerseys this year. “We have a lot of winners in our clubhouse,” Marlins manager Skip Schumak er said. “They know what winning looks like.” The Cubs wasted a strong start by Marcus Stroman, who allowed two runs and six hits in 6 1 / 3 innings. Chicago went 1 for 7 with runners in scoring position and left seven runners on base. Jazz Chisholm Jr. singled twice and stole two bases for the Marlins. Jesús Lu zardo also pitched 6 1 / 3 in nings of two-run ball. “We have tremendous condence in our bullpen and tremendous con dence with our batters as well,” Luzardo said. “It doesnÂ’t matter that we are losing by two, three, ve runs. Everyone in the dug out is optimistic we are go ing to score.” The Cubs grabbed a 2-1 lead on Eric HosmerÂ’s pinch-hit RBI single in the seventh. Hosmer drove in Cody Bellinger, who tri pled with one out on a line drive to left. The Marlins tied it in the bottom half of the inning. Arraez walked, advanced to third on GarcÃaÂ’s single and scored on SeguraÂ’s sin gle to left. “I feel like IÂ’m starting to catch my stride and as the year progresses, I wonÂ’t have those spurts where I kind of lose it with a batter on four pitches,” Stroman said of his walk to Arraez. Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner singled in the third, extending his on-base streak to 23 games. It is the third longest active streak in the majors. Chicago jumped in front on VelázquezÂ’s solo shot in the third. Velázquez drove LuzardoÂ’s rst pitch over the wall in left for his third homer. Miami tied in the bottom half when Jesús Sánchez scored from third on a double-play grounder by Jon Berti.Hitting the roadChicago played 16 of its rst 24 games at home. The series opener against Mi ami began a stretch of 16 of the next 22 away from Wrigley Field.Roster movesThe Cubs reinstated Bell inger from the paternity list and designated catcher Luis Torrens for assign ment. The Marlins promoted right-hander Johan Queza da from Triple-A Jackson ville and designated left-hander Devin Smeltzer for assignment.TrainerÂ’s roomCubs: RHP Kyle Hen dricks (right shoulder strain) allowed six runs and six hits in 1 2 / 3 innings in a rehab appearance with Tri ple-A Iowa on Thursday. Marlins: INF Joey Wen dle (strained right intercos tal) went hitless in three at-bats in a rehab game with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday. ... RHP Johnny Cueto (right biceps tight ness) is scheduled to throw 60 pitches in an extend ed spring training outing Monday.Up nextRHP Caleb Kilian will make his season debut for the Cubs in the second game of the series Satur day. The 25-year-old Kilian is currently at Iowa but man ager David Ross conrmed his pending promotion on Friday. The Marlins will go with RHP Edward Cabrera (1-2, 4.91 ERA). Marta Lavandier / AP Miami Marlins second baseman Luis Arraez (3) tags ChicagoÂ’s Ian Happ (8) and throws to first base to complete the double play during the sixth inning of FridayÂ’s game. Giants manager gets lost in Mexico City before practiceMEXICO CITY (AP) — Before coming to Mexico for a two-day series against the San Diego Padres, San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said he was planning on some sight-see ing in the city. He ended up seeing more than he expect ed. Kapler took the subway from the teamÂ’s hotel in the Polanco, an upscale part of Mexico City, to Alfredo Harp Helu Stadium on Fri day ahead of the weekend series opener. Somewhere on the roughly 10-mile ride, he got lost. The manager had some tacos and coffee around 2 p.m., then said he got di rections to the ballpark from his iPad. He planned to get off after seven subway stops and walk to the stadium. “Obviously, thereÂ’s no other English speakers on the train. But thereÂ’s some sort of notication and ev erybody spilled off the train like six stops before I need ed to get off,” Kapler saud. When there is major main tenance work on one of the lines in Mexico City, the city government provides free buses that go alongside the tracks so passengers can continue to their destina tions. “I gured that was some sort of normal procedure, but I wasnÂ’t ready for it. So I kind of followed the herd and then ended up in a line for buses. And then I ended up on a bus,” Kapler said.

The club will be collect ing gently worn used and new shoes. The wrestling club will earn money per pound of shoes collected and those shoes will be re purposed and sold in mar kets in poverty-stricken countries. So instead of throwing away those shoes you don’t want anymore, bring them to the Crystal River Publix location May 6 to help out the Crystal River Wrestling Club and people around the world.CRWC wants your shoes “It’s giving them some thing that they can remem ber their entire life and giving them something they can use in whatever they decide to go into. “This community de serves these individuals to be the best they can be, because this com munity deserves to be at its best at all times. And I’m hoping that the small part that our program can play is a great building spot for that to become true.” Ross said it’s not just the members of the football team who will help the program be successful. “I want you all to take an ownership in this as well. It’s not just coach Ross’ program, it’s not just the assistant coach es’ program, it’s not just the athlete’s program,” he said. “Every individual here and every individu al back in Inverness, this is our program. Every single one of us holds an ownership stake in our program.” CITRUSFrom page B1 City kicked off with family ties. The Pittsburgh Steel ers selected Penn State cor nerback Joey Porter Jr. with the rst pick of the second round. His dad, Joey Porter, was a three-time Pro Bowl linebacker in eight seasons with Pittsburgh. With Steelers fans wav ing their yellow “Terrible Towels” among a crowd of more than 100,000 mostly red-clad Chiefs fans, Hall of Fame offensive lineman Alan Faneca stepped to the podium and announced Porter was the rst pick of the second round. There was plenty of wheeling and dealing in the second and third rounds. The aggressive Lions snagged Iowa tight end Sam LaPorta (34th) and Al abama safety Brian Branch (45th) in the second round after choosing Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs (12th) and Iowa linebacker Jack Campbell (18th) in the rst round. The Los Angeles Rams, who haven’t made a rst-round selection since tak ing Goff No. 1 in 2016, made their rst pick of the draft at No. 36, taking Tex as Christian offensive line man Steve Avila. Denver’s rst pick was Oklahoma wide receiver Marvin Mims at 63rd. New Broncos coach Sean Pay ton high-ved staff mem bers in the draft room after the pick. The defending NFC champion Philadelphia Ea gles, who walked away with Georgia defensive linemen Jalen Carter (No. 9) and No lan Smith (No. 30), made more trades and ended up with consecutive picks ear ly in the third round. They took Alabama offensive lineman Tyler Steen at No. 65 and Illinois safety Syd ney Brown after him. The hometown Super Bowl champion Chiefs moved up in the second round to grab another tar get for Patrick Mahomes, selecting SMU wide re ceiver Rashee Rice with the 55th pick. DRAFTFrom page B1 hit Luis Robert Jr. in the back with his rst pitch af ter Vaughn’s homer.Sore arm?Rays outelder Luke Ra ley rested after pitching the ninth inning of Thursday’s 14-5 win. He said he re membered pitching in high school in northeast Ohio but the experience didn’t help much. “I guess I (started and re lieved),” he said. “But I did neither really well. I was just trying to get the ball over the plate.” He joined Minnesota’s Willi Castro as the only po sition players to homer and pitch in the same game this season.More roster movesTampa Bay activated right-hander Ryan Thomp son (right lat strain) from the 15-day injury list and optioned right-hander Zack Burdi to Triple-A Durham. Veteran right-hander Heath Hembree cleared waivers and opted to become a free agent. The White Sox also signed right-hander Bryan Shaw to a minor league deal and outrighted righty A.J. Alexy to Charlotte be fore the game.Up nextTampa Bay reliever Yon ny Chirinos (0-0, 0.00 ERA) makes his rst start of the season against fellow right-hander Lance Lynn (0-3, 7.52 ERA) on Satur day night. RAYSFrom page B1 took a 1-0 lead, Boston tied it, Florida took a 2-1 lead, Boston tied it, Florida took a 3-2 lead, Boston tied it. Evidently, that’s when the teams decided a repeat per formance was boring. They combined for four goals in a span of 6:56 – this time, with the Panthers answering the Bruins. Boston went up 4-3 on a power-play score from Pastrnak, Dalpe tied it for Florida, DeBrusk scored short-handed for a 5-4 lead, and Tkachuk got his second of the night 27 seconds lat er to tie it again. And less than 4 minutes later, Luostarinen made it 6-5 – the Panthers back on top with 5:38 left, a sellout crowd in Sunrise waiving white towels in unison. Boston pulled Ull mark twice with hopes of netting the equalizer, had good looks at it in the nal minute, but Bobrovsky and Florida’s defense held on and Reinhart banged a puck off the boards, down the ice and into the net to seal the win. ——— Hurricanes 2, Islanders 1 NEW YORK — Paul Stastny scored 6:01 into overtime, and the Carolina Hurricanes beat the New York Islanders in Game 6 to advance to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Sebastian Aho tied it midway through the third period for the Hurricanes. Frederik Andersen stopped 35 shots while making his first start of the postseason. Cal Clutterbuck scored for the Islanders and Ilya Sorokin finished with 39 saves. New York was eliminated in the first round for the first time in their last five trips to the postseason. The Hurricanes advanced to face the winner of the series between the New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils. The Devils lead 3-2 heading into Game 6 on Saturday night. Derek Stepan started the win ning sequence in overtime when he intercepted Islanders defense man Adam Pelech’s clearing pass. Stepan skated up and passed to Stastny, who fired a sharp-angle shot from the goal line that deflected off Sorokin’s left pad and between his legs. It was Stastny’s third career overtime playoff winner. PANTHERSFrom page B1 By JANIE MCCAULEY Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO — Malik Monk scored 28 points, De’Aaron Fox added 26 points and 11 assists, and the Sacramen to Kings staved off elimi nation in their rst-round playoff series by beating Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors 118-99 on Friday night in Game 6. Now, a winner-takes-all Game 7 is back in Sacra mento on Sunday after noon. Rookie Keegan Murray scored 15 points with four 3-pointers and grabbed 12 rebounds for his rst play off double-double, and the No. 3-seeded Kings with stood every scoring surge the defending champions made on their home court and shined in nearly every facet of this one with their special season on the line. Kevin Huerter, strug gling with his shot all series – 20 of 52 coming into the game – hit a 3 with 6:23 to go and an other with 4:58 left as Sacramento gave the state capital one more chance to Light the Beam. Curry scored 29, Klay Thompson 22 and Kev on Looney pulled down 13 more rebounds to give him an NBA-leading 85 this postseason. He was coming off a career-high 22 rebounds in a Game 5 win at Golden 1 Center. But the Kings, in the postseason for the rst time since 2006, answered almost every big play by Golden State in the third quarter and capitalized on regular miscues. They outhustled the Warriors to the boards. The Kings led 90-80 heading into the nal 12 minutes. Curry hit an ear ly 3, only for Trey Lyles to connect moments later. When Curry drove for a layup the next possession, Monk made one of his own. Curry’s 3 with 9:28 left got Golden State within 99-89 before Fox hit. Fox’s rst points came on a jumper with 2:18 left in the rst on his rst shot. He then scored again the next time down still dealing with a broken in dex nger on his shooting hand. He shot 10 for 18. Sacramento snapped a six-game losing streak on the Warriors’ home oor dating to a win on Feb. 25, 2020. Lyles wound up with 12 points and 10 rebounds as others picked up the slack with Domantas Sabonis in foul trouble. The big man had seven points and 11 rebounds before fouling out with 5:17 left. Fox had been frustrat ed with his poor fourth quarter in Wednesday’s 123-116 defeat in which he went 0 for 6 from the eld and was scoreless – the most shots he had ever taken in a nal period without scoring. Draymond Green came off the bench for a third straight game and re ceived a rousing standing ovation when checking in for the rst time at the 6:26 mark of the opening quarter. He had 10 assists. Both teams took a while to warm up, with Sacra mento starting 6 for 23 and Golden State 6 of 19.Monk, Fox lead Kings past Warriors 118-99 to force Game 790. Dallas, DeMarvion Overshown, lb, Texas.91.

Music fans poured into the Fair Grounds Race Course when gates opened at 11 a.m. They wandered among 14 stages or tents, many spreading blankets or tarps and set ting up folding chairs, laying claim to spots where their favorite artists were to perform. And some were dancing, partic ularly in front of the festivalÂ’s Fais Do-Do Stage, where Zydeco rang out, played by Geno Delafose & French RockinÂ’ Boogie. Retiree Joe Hulsey of Seattle said he and his wife have spent the last four months in New Orleans. A mu sic festival veteran, Hulsey said Jazz Fest is his favorite. “ThereÂ’s just no comparison,” he said. “ItÂ’s just one of the gems about New Orleans that I love. ItÂ’s a whole vibe. “You canÂ’t beat the music, the food, the music,” he said, smiling. Food was available from dozens of booths staffed by Louisiana restau rants. There were a variety of takes on traditional Louisiana fare – nu merous seafood dishes or poÂ’boy sandwiches featuring crawsh, sau sage, pork or alligator. And there were other cuisines, like pan fried noodles from the Ajun Cajun. FridayÂ’s music lineup included scheduled performances by Lizzo; Robert Plant & Alison Krauss; Big Freedia; Tank and The Bangas; Wu-Tang Clan + The Soul Rebels; Nich olas Payton; Mavis Staples; Kermit Rufns & the Barbecue Swingers; Charlie Musselwhite; and Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience. It was Lizzo that drew Kalindi Cordero, of Dallas, and her best friend, Lana Zring, of Atlanta, to the festival. “This city is just so special and when I heard Lizzo was going to be here, I started tracking the lineup and tickets and hotels and everything,” Cordero said. “ItÂ’s the cityÂ’s diver sity and representation that shines through with this festival.” Lizzo did not disappoint fans as she roared through a host of her hits including “About Damn Time” and “Grrls.” “IÂ’ve been on tour but it ainÂ’t noth ing like being at Jazz Fest,” she told the crowd, which stretched from the front of the stage to the back of the track. Jennifer Seagle, of New Orleans, said she is a huge fan of the singer who advocates for empowerment, self-love and body positivity. “I absolutely love her,” Seagle said. “I love her energy. I love her attitude. You canÂ’t hear her music and not feel good about yourself.” Big FreediaÂ’s bounce/rap show was set for the festivalÂ’s main stage, before Lizzo and Tank and The Ban gas. “I love that I get the opportunity to showcase my artistry before a big ger audience and thereÂ’s a lot more room to do my thing. WeÂ’re here to entertain and weÂ’re gonna bust it open,” she said. Freedia, known for collaborations with Drake on “Nice for What” and Beyoncé on “Break My Soul,” said there were no plans to join LizzoÂ’s closing performance even though the two paired up for FreediaÂ’s 2018 hit “Karaoke.” “I support her either way,” she said.Freedia dropped new music Friday – “$100 Bill” – a collaboration with R&B singer and songwriter Ciara. This yearÂ’s festival is also casting a spotlight on Puerto Rico with ap pearances Friday by two artists from the U.S. territory: Tambuye and Grammy-nominated Latin dance band Plena Libre. “ThereÂ’s a whole vibe out there and people should come out and feel it. IÂ’m thrilled with whatÂ’s about to happen,” festival producer Quint Da vis said. “WeÂ’ve got a lot of people coming in,” he said. “Lizzo, a phenomenal talent on Friday, and Ed Sheeran and Jazmine Sullivan on Saturday and Jill Scott on Sunday. And thatÂ’s just the rst weekend. WeÂ’ve also got H.E.R. coming next week along with Dead & Company, Kane Brown and Jon Batiste. Everybody wants to play the festival and everything just fell together to allow that to happen.” Crowds were helped by sunshine, temperatures around 80 degrees (26 C) and cooling breezes. Davis said a good opening day forecast helped ticket sales. Spotty showers, howev er, may dampen Saturday and Sun day shows. Kelly Schulz, a spokeswoman for New Orleans and Company, said hotel occupancy for the cityÂ’s down town corridor was above the 2022 Jazz Fest numbers – the rst year af ter COVID-19-related cancellations in 2020 and 2021 – but not quite as good as those for 2019. “WeÂ’re at 83 percent occupancy for Saturday. In 2022, that was 78 per cent and in 2019, pre-COVID, it was 92 percent,” she said. Schulz said this was just a snapshot of how well the cityÂ’s tourism indus try is rebounding after COVID-19 forced a shutdown: “The numbers weÂ’re seeing for Jazz Fest is just another example of people ready to travel again and experience face-to-face connections again.” This yearÂ’s festival is also go ing cashless for the rst time in its 52-year run. The festival will offer booths exchanging cash for prepaid cards. All major credit cards, debit cards, prepaid cards as well as Ap ple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay were being accepted for tickets, food, merchandise and more.

In 1945, during World War II, American soldiers liberated the Dachau concentration camp. Adolf Hitler married Eva Braun inside his “Fuhrerbunker” and designated Adm. Karl Doenitz president. In 1991, a cyclone began striking the South Asian country of Bangladesh; it ended up kill ing more than 138,000 people, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In 1992, a jury in Simi Valley, California, acquitted four Los Angeles police officers of almost all state charges in the video taped beating of motorist Rod ney King; the verdicts were fol lowed by rioting in Los Angeles resulting in 55 deaths. In 1997, a worldwide treaty to ban chemical weapons went into effect. In 2008, Democratic presiden tial hopeful Barack Obama denounced his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, for what he termed “divisive and destructive” remarks on race. In 2010, the U.S. Navy official ly ended a ban on women serv ing on submarines, saying the first women would be reporting for duty by 2012. The NCAAÂ’s Board of Directors approved a 68-team format for the menÂ’s basketball tournament begin ning the next season. In 2011, BritainÂ’s Prince Wil liam and Kate Middleton were married in an opulent ceremony at LondonÂ’s Westminster Abbey. In 2020, scientists announced the first effective treatment against the coronavirus, the experimental antiviral medica tion remdesivir, which they said could speed the recovery of COVID-19 patients. Ten years ago: Opening statements took place in Los Angeles in a wrongful death lawsuit brought by Michael JacksonÂ’s mother, Katherine Jackson, against concert giant AEG Live, claiming it had failed to properly investigate a doctor who cared for Jackson and was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter in his 2009 death. (The jury determined in October 2013 that AEG Live was not lia ble.) Five years ago: Central Amer icans who traveled in a caravan to the U.S. border, hoping to turn themselves in and ask for asy lum, were stalled at the border as U.S. immigration officials announced that the San Diego crossing was already at capaci ty. One year ago: The United Nations is working doggedly to broker an evacuation of civilians suffering in the ruins of Mariu pol. The negotiations continued on Friday, as Ukraine accused Russia of showing its contempt for the world organization by bombing Kyiv while the U.N. leader was visiting the capital.

Citrus County Chronicle Saturday, April 29, 2023 B7A & P A parent is haunted by her folks’ creepy friendDEAR AMY: My parents are wonderful people. They have a long-time friend, “Roger,” who is a heavy drinker and doesn’t have a family of his own. He doesn’t seem to reciprocate their friend ship, and they seem to ac cept Roger as something of a family member – he’s just someone who is often around. I am a 40-year-old woman and have known Roger all of my life. When I was a teenager he repeatedly made leer ing and gross comments to me; I knew he’d been drinking and didn’t know what to do about it, so I did my best to avoid him. Once I went to college, it was easy to do, but on visits home Rog er often seemed to nd a way to sexual ly harass me. I never told my parents.Last year, my husband and I decid ed to move back to my hometown. We have a teenage daughter and a younger son. We moved back home in order to spend more time with my folks, who are getting up in years. Roger is still around, and doesn’t seem to have changed at all. I don’t want to control my parents, but I don’t want my daughter to be exposed to the same harassment I experienced. I’d appreciate your ideas about how to handle this. – Harassed Mom DEAR HARASSED: Talk to your daugh ter. Tell her about your own experience. Tell her that you never told your folks about being harassed, but that if she ever experiences anything like this, you would like her to tell you. You’ve been sitting on this for 20 years or so, and I think it’s time to have a chat with “Roger.” If you see him and discern that he hasn’t changed, you should tell him, “You harassed me when I was younger and I didn’t say anything about it, but I’m letting you know that if this hap pens again – or if you say anything even slightly inappropriate to my kids – you’ll have to deal with me.” Do not expect Roger to acknowledge his behavior or apologize to you. (He may not remember – or claim not to re member – due to his drinking.) He may choose to bring this up to your folks. If so, you can let them know that you don’t want to burden them with this and have decided to handle it like the strong and capable adult they raised you to be. DEAR AMY: We learned that my long-divorced nephew was engaged to his girlfriend, whom we have not met. In a congratulatory card we asked them to inform us when they set the date so we could book the ights. A month ago, my nephew informed me they had decided to elope at some point. I told him we would love to meet them for dinner on a trip we plan for later this year, and they agreed. This month invitations were received by my many siblings for a summer wed ding. We did not receive one – and I doubt it was lost in the mail. Knowing that I am not a favorite of my nephew’s mom (since her developing early dementia), it was not a surprise – except for his story about eloping. While I am prepared to send $1,000 like we gave to a niece on my wife’s side, my wife disagrees because we were invited to and attended her niece’s wedding. Should I contact my nephew or his dad, my oldest brother? I am inclined to just let it go and send the gift, but what’s your take? – Disap pointed DEAR DISAPPOINTED: I think you jumped the gun when you responded to this engagement by assuming they’d be having a wedding and that you would be invited. I suggest reaching out to your neph ew and saying, “I don’t want to pres sure you, but I’m just trying to clarify whether we’ve been invited to your wedding?” This is extremely awkward, but keep in mind that when it comes to wed dings, the groom’s preferences are often outnumbered by the bride, her family, and his parents. And yes – if you can afford to be this generous to all of your nephews and nieces, I think you should send a check.
