A4State sending National Guard troops, officers to Texas By JIM TURNER News Service of Florida TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday said Florida “stands ready” and will send Florida Na tional Guard troops and law-enforcement ofcers to Texas to help with border control as he nears an ex pected announcement of a White House bid. DeSantis’ ofce said in a news release Tuesday after noon that 800 members of the Florida National Guard, along with Florida Highway Patrol troopers, Florida De partment of Law Enforce ment ofcers and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conser vation Commission ofcers were available and ready to deploy within 24 hours. In 2021, DeSantis re sponded to a request from Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and then-Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey by sending more than 50 Florida law-enforcement ofcers to Texas. The de ployment was announced as part of the mutual-aid effort to protect Florida, in part because of drugs crossing the border and ending up in Florida. During an appearance Tuesday before his ofce’s news release, DeSantis crit icized the Biden administra tion’s handling of immigra tion issues and said he had offered personnel, boats and planes to assist Texas with migrants trying to come into the country. “We’re staying on them (the Biden administration), the state of Florida is, be cause it’s a really import ant issue to actually have sovereignty in our country and have the rule of law upheld,” DeSantis said during a bill-signing event in Lighthouse Point. On Monday, Pensaco la-based U.S. District Judge T. Kent Wetherell denied a motion by the Biden ad ministration to stay a tem porary restraining order that blocked a federal im migration policy that could lead to large numbers of migrants being released into the country. Wetherell’s rul ing came in a lawsuit led by Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody. In the news release Tues day, DeSantis’ ofce cited what is known as the Emer gency Management Assis tance Compact, an agree ment in which states can provide resources to each other in times of emergency. AP File Photo Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis DeSantis’ office said in a news release Tuesday afternoon that 800 members of the Florida Nation al Guard, along with Florida Highway Patrol troopers, Florida Department of Law Enforcement officers and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officers were available and ready to deploy to Texas within 24 hours.Gov. DeSantis says they will help with border controlSenator Ingoglia faces off with CRHS junior By GEORGIA SULLIVAN Chronicle Reporter That age-old question we’ve all pondered at some point in our lives … How much can you bench, bro? A Florida state senator and a high school junior walk into a weight room. Only one can reign victorious. Place your bets now as the two warm up. A months-long awaited challenge culminated in a face-off Wednesday, May 17, in the weight room of Crystal River High School as Blaise Ingoglia, Florida state sena tor for District 11, competed against junior Conner Cooper to see who could bench more weight. “I knew I was going to have to put up a ght,” said Cooper. “It was a competition, but at the end of the day, it was just for the fun of it. Whether I lost or I won, I’m still going to be by his side.” They started at 185 pounds, both passing that round. However, as they added more weight for the next round, Cooper was unable to lift it. So, in a planned plot twist, 16-year-old Tim Gray subbed in for Cooper as his alternate for the competition. Gray, as put by both Coo per and Ingoglia following the competition, is a “freak of nature” when it comes to weightlifting. He is also third in the state and sixth in the nation for wrestling. Cooper plays basketball and football as defensive line, so weight lifting is not his main sport. “He was my champion,” Cooper said about Gray. “I knew that if I failed, he’d have my back.” Onward the competition went as Gray warmed up to make his attempt at lift ing his max weight, 305 pounds. However, after two attempts, the 305 was just out of reach for Gray that after noon. “Lifting is kind of weird, ‘How much can you bench?’ ABOVE: Florida State Sen. Blaise Ingoglia channels his inner Hulk Hogan on Wednes day after bench-pressing 305 pounds several times inside the weight room at Crystal River High School. The senator was recently challenged to a lifting competition by a student and accepted. He easily won the lift-off.

He left for a G-7 summit in Ja pan but planned to return by the weekend in hopes of approving a solid agreement. Biden’s upbeat remarks came as a select group of negotiators began meeting to try and hammer out the nal contours of a budget spending deal to unlock a path for raising the debt limit as soon June 1. That is when the Treasury Depart ment says the U.S. could begin defaulting on its obli gations and trigger nancial chaos. “I’m condent that we’ll get the agreement on the budget and America will not default,” Biden said from the Roosevelt Room of the White House. Later Wednesday evening, ne gotiations resumed behind closed doors at the Capitol. Democrat Biden and Re publican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy have trad ed blame for a debt-ceil ing impasse for weeks. But Biden said of the lat est White House session with congressional leaders that “everyone came to the meeting, I think, in good faith.” McCarthy was upbeat, too, though contending Biden had given ground. The president said the bud get talks were still separate from the debt limit issue, but the speaker said Biden had “nally backed off” his refusal to negotiate. “Keep working – we’ll work again tonight,” Mc Carthy told reporters later. “We’re going to work until we can get it done.” Biden said that every lead er at Tuesday’s Oval Ofce Evan Vucci / AP President Joe Biden speaks about the debt limit talks Wedne sday in the Roosevelt Room of the White House.

A2 Thursday, May 18, 2023 Citrus County ChronicleConfusing freedom with tyrannyAttention Florida Republicans, freedom does not ban books. Freedom does not restrict health care. Freedom doesn’t impose one’s religion. Freedom doesn’t oppress minorities as scapegoats. Freedom doesn’t stage coups against democratically elected govern-ment. You’re confusing freedom with tyranny.We pay for you to inform usI’d like to point out that Sher-iff Prendergast doesn’t have to sell sub-scriptions to survive. We are all forced to contribute to his salary and operations through taxes. When he whines that he needs more money, we are bullied into providing it. Therefore, we have paid for the right to be informed when there is an incident in our community. Lastly, if you’re doing your job, why are there so many car burglaries? Blame the victim. Cheap shot, Mike.Don’t tear up Whispering PinesPlease no RV park in Whispering Pines. Please don’t tear up one of our remaining beauties in this county. Whispering Pines is perfect the way it is. Please don’t start tearing it all up for an RV park. It’ll cost a lot of money to put it and to maintain it. You won’t be making any money. Most of all, you’ll be hurting all of us who love Whispering Pines. Please, please, please no RV park in Whispering Pines.We don’t want more tourismRegarding the headline in today’s paper, May 8, “Citrus County hits the airwaves again.” Why is it that our county leaders and administrators continue to ignore the obvious desires of the majority of its citi-zens to keep Citrus County the pristine, lovely and once best-kept secret along the Nature Coast? We do not want more tourism. We do not want more people, cars, pollution along our Nature Coast. It’s apparent that what drives you people is money and it is only going into certain pock-ets. For most of us, your choices, which we do not agree with, only destroy the loveliness and quietness, the nature of our coast. What will it take for you to realize this before it’s too late?!We need GlampgroundI’m calling about the Fish Creek Glampground. We denitely need that. They keep this place spotless. The boat ramp is spotless and everybody needs a place to go and camp. We denitely need this. This is what we need in Ozello.How to end socialism in AmericaRepublicans have an opportunity to end socialism in our country. They should refuse to increase the debt ceiling. Within a few months, Social Security and Medicare funding will run out, and we can get rid of the socialist programs and the leeches that live off of them. Social security and Medicare are socialist Ponzi schemes that allow old people to steal money from young people.Glampground would be vital assetFish Creek Glampground needs approval to provide a much-needed eco-conscien-tious safe and conservative family-friendly experience in Ozello. It would be a vital asset for generations to come.What a rip-offCould someone explain what’s going on with the state park in Homosassa? It has really gotten crappy here of late. What a rip-off for tourists.Sorry Sheriff, you loseThere’s an interesting debate in Sunday’s paper, May 7, between Sher-iff Prendergast and Jim Gouvellis, the executive editor of the Chronicle. Sorry Sheriff, you lose. Your comments look petty, personal and just mostly inappropriate. You can do better.Stop promoting the countyIn regard to front page, “County hits the airwaves again,” there’s a sentence in here that says the tax is mostly borne by tourists and has no impact on residents. Promoting tourism has sig nicant impact on residents, especially long-time lifetime residents. We have no ac cess to our own boat ramps. We have no access to swim. We have to pay for every thing. Legion Beach used to be open to the public. Now you have to pay for all of it and it’s crowded, and prices are increased. We’re tourism towns and the locals are suffering that. But here we go, promote, promote, promote. Cram us in here like sardines. I think it’s time to stop promoting the county before it’s complete ly destroyed.It’s patheticThis is pretty ridiculous. Now the Biden administra-tion is blaming Congress for the border crossings. Really? We had a good sys-tem in place from Trump. We didn’t have these prob-lems and they got rid of it and now they’re blaming Congress. Really pathetic, just like this administration. Totally pathetic.Legal speed trapIt looks like Sheriff Prendergast went to start to nd out how to set up a legal speed trap. 45 to 40 to 30, bang, bang, bang in Crystal River.Response to letter about editorial page“Editorial page has improved,” well, Mr. David Burns, therein lies the problem. He only wants to hear his politics and he doesn’t want to listen to anything but his narrative. Anything that doesn’t t his narrative is misinformation, whether it’s true or not, he considers that misinfor-mation, as many do. You can’t please everybody and having varied opinions is the only way the paper is going to survive regardless of what either side thinks. A lot of people don’t like the conservative pieces. I don’t like the liberal pieces. You just can’t win but it’s people like this who divide the country. So maybe we should be forced to listen to each other ideas and nd out why we think what we think and correct what really is misinformation. SOUND OFFCALL 563-0579 CelebratingtheBEST!

IN BRIEF Inverness Grill House eatery closes doors By MICHAEL D. BATES Chronicle Reporter The father-and-daughter duo who opened the Inver-ness Grill House last fall were so excited about their new enterprise. Formerly a Golden Corral, they were sure the reimag-ined restaurant would be a hit. It didn’t work out. Barely a half year open, owners David and April Jedziniak have closed the doors for good at 2605 State Road 44. They left this message on Facebook: “It is with heavy hearts that we announce our per-manent closing. Thank you to our wonderful employees and customers who sup-ported us trying to live our dream.” From the get-go, the family sit-down restaurant was Former Golden Corral didn’t prove a hit with diners Submitted photo Inverness Grill HouseCrystal River woman arrested from CCSO drug bust By AIDAN BUSH Chronicle Reporter A Crystal River woman was arrested on suspicion of dealing fentanyl, meth and other drugs. Lisa O’Callaghan, 45, was charged with child neglect, trafficking fentanyl, possession of meth with the intent to sell, posses-sion of crack cocaine with the intent to sell, possession of manufac-turing equipment, possession of paraphernalia, owning a structure for traf cking and three counts of sale of a con-trolled substance. The Tactical Impact Unit of Citrus County Sheriff’s Of ce received reports in April that drugs were being sold at 4330 N. Mitchum Point in Crystal River, ac-cording to a press release. TIU detectives investigated the mobile home and identi ed O’Callaghan as the reported dealer. Law enforcement soon obtained an arrest warrant and search warrant for her home. On May 16, detectives arrived and put O’Callaghan under arrest. Her bond was set at $85,000. While searching the property, law enforcement found traf cking amounts of fentanyl, meth and crack cocaine. Traf cking charges for the drugs require minimum amounts of 4 grams, 14 grams and 28 grams, respectively, Bond set at $85,000 O’CALLAGHANFrom Homosassa to Miss Florida USA By NANCY KENNEDY Chronicle Reporter As a girl, Caroline Dixon would watch the Miss USA pageant on TV every year with her mom and dream of one day wearing a sparkly crown. This past Sunday, with her mother in the audience, Dixon was crowned Miss Florida USA 2023. “To have won on Mother’s Day with my mom sitting in the crowd, meant the world to me,” Dixon said in an email Tuesday. “This was my third year competing, and it seems that the third time truly was the charm.” Although Dixon, 25, was representing Palm Harbor at the pageant, she’s still a favorite in Citrus County. “She graduated from high school here, she taught at Rock Crusher Elementary School – she’s one of us,” said Ginger Bryant, Citrus County School Board mem-ber and friend of the Dixon family. Thomas Kennedy, also a school board member, wrote on Facebook: “As an alum-na of Crystal River High School, Class of 2016, Car-oline has made her mark and brought pride to her alma mater. Hailing from Homo-sassa, she is the daughter of Chuck and Phyllis Dixon, who are bursting with pride at their daughter’s accom-plishments. “Caroline’s journey to this prestigious title has been nothing short of inspira-tional. Having previously served as an elementary teacher in the Citrus Coun-ty School District, she has demonstrated her passion for education and making a positive impact in the lives of young students.” Dixon entered her rst pageant at 13, competing for the title of Miss Citrus County at the county fair in 2011. Later she went on to win Junior Miss American Beauty 2013, USA Na-tional Teen 2015, and Miss US Tourism International 2020. As Miss Homosassa, Dixon was named fourth run-ner-up during last year’s state pageant and a semi -nalist in 2021. As a teen, Dixon used her involvement in pageants to talk about cyberbullying. She told the Chronicle in 2015, “When I was in sixth grade and went to Lecan-to Middle School, I was a victim of cyberbullying … they just didn’t like me, Crystal River High School 2015 graduate Caroline Dixon crowned Sunday night See GRILL , page A8 See BUST , page A8 See DIXON , page A8 Caroline Dixon, a Citrus County native, Crystal River High School 2016 graduate and former Miss Homosassa, was crowned Miss Florida USA 2023 Sunday, May 14.

Earlier this month, Biden sent 1,500 U.S. troops to the U.S.-Mexico border for a 90-day deployment in anticipation of an in-crease in immigration as a COVID-19 border restric-tion known as Title 42 was ending. Those troops were sent to supplement the work of U.S. Customs and Border Protection and not carry out law enforcement, according to the Pentagon. Asked about the border Sunday while in Delaware, Biden said things were much “better than you all expect-ed” and that the numbers of migrants seeking asylum were going down, according to a White House transcript. “Well, look, they are – they have gone down,” Biden said. “My hope is they’ll continue to go down, but we have more – a lot more work to do. And we need some more help from the Congress as well in terms of funding and legislative changes.” In addition to sending troops and law-enforce-ment of cers, the DeSantis administration news re-lease Tuesday said Florida would make available ve xed-wing airplanes, two mobile command vehicles, 17 drones and 10 marine vessels, such as airboats and shallow-draft vessels. DeSantis, who is widely expected to announce a run for the presidency, and Moody have long criticized Biden’s border policies. They argue, in part, that undocumented immigrants coming into Florida cre-ate costs for services such as schools, health care and prisons. Moody has led two federal lawsuits in Pensacola against the Biden adminis-tration about immigration policies. That included the case that led to Wetherell issuing a temporary restrain-ing order Thursday against a policy known as “parole with conditions.” The Biden administration issued the policy to help address an expected surge of migrants coming into the country because of the expi-ration of the Title 42 order. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Friday called Wetherell’s ruling “harmful,” accused Republican elected of cials of “political stunts” and said “they don’t want to solve this problem. They want to use it, again, as a campaign tool for them.” DeSantis signed controversial legislation last week that stepped up re-quirements on businesses to check the immigration status of workers, cracked down on people who bring undocumented immigrants into Florida and required data on whether hospital patients are in the country legally. BORDERFrom page A1meeting – Vice President Kamala Harris, McCarthy, House Minority Leader Ha-keem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Sen-ate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Sen-ate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. – agreed the U.S. must not default on its obligations. “It would be catastrophic for the American economy and the American people if we didn’t pay our bills,” Biden said. “I’m con dent everyone in the room agreed … that we’re going to come together because there’s no alternative. We have to do the right thing for the country. We have to move on.” He said he would be in “constant contact” with White House of cials while at the summit in Hi-roshima. He is canceling stops in Australia and Pap-ua New Guinea that were to follow so he can return to Washington on Sunday. Biden and McCarthy tasked a handful of representatives to work swiftly to try and close out a nal deal. They include Steve Ricchetti, counselor to the president; legislative af-fairs director Louisa Terrell and Of ce of Management and Budget Director Shalan-da Young for the administration, and Rep. Garret Graves, R-La., a close McCarthy ally, for the Republicans. McCarthy, who has said he would personally be involved, said he planned to stop by the talks later Wednesday. He said he would be in Wash-ington for the weekend while negotiations are underway. Agreement by the negotiators would still leave any deal needing approval by Demo-cratic Senate and Republican House. Democrats are upset about the possibility of new work requirements for some re-cipients of government aid. And Republicans want much tougher budget restraints than the Democrats support. BUDGETFrom page A1 some days are good, some days it’s hard,” Gray said. “It’s good to compete with people who are stronger than me and I had fun.” Ingoglia on the other hand successfully lifted the 305 pounds, and did it several times consecutively. “I didn’t expect that much from him, but it was a great time,” Cooper said. “I really do appreciate him and I wish him the best of luck.” “It was fun, and I think it’s important to teach young people that people in elected of ce, ‘politicians,’ although I don’t view myself as a pol-itician, we’re just everyday people just like them and our job is to help them out,” In-goglia said. He also told the story of how this challenge came about, which began a few months back when a group of local high school students traveled to Tallahassee and met with Ingoglia there. “We were doing a big sel e and taking pictures and Con-ner walked up and I asked him what he wanted to do, and he started talking about playing sports,” said Ingog-lia. “When you look at Con-ner, he looks like the proto-typical quarterback, but then he said he plays defensive line, so I said, ‘Are you kid-ding me? You’re too skinny!’ And he said, ‘Well I can lift more than you’ and I said, ‘You want to bet?’” Months later and 52-yearold Ingoglia reigns victo-rious in the CRHS weight room. After it was over, Ingoglia addressed the students in the room, the majority of whom were the CRHS foot-ball team who turned up to watch. “I wish you guys nothing but the best of luck and success in what you do,” Ingoglia said. “Sports and a competitive spirit is what keeps on driving me to be better and better. … Com-petition makes you stron-ger and better. So, while I did not take any of this lightly, I came in here to whoop some butt – quite frankly I’m surprised that I won – but you’ve got a great school here, and just know this: I’m a state sen-ator, but I am always here for you. If there’s anything I can do to help you guys, just let me know. My door is always open.” INGOGLIAFrom page A1 Crystal River High School student Conner Cooper prepares to lift Wednesday during a weight-lifting competition at his school.

Citrus County Chronicle Thursday, May 18, 2023 A5PEN, Penguin Random House sue Fla. school district over book bans By ANTHONY IZAGUIRRE Associated Press TALLAHASSEE — Writers’ group PEN Amer ica and publisher Penguin Random House sued a Florida school district Wednesday over its remov al of books about race and LGBTQ+ identities, the latest opposition to a poli cy central to Gov. Ron De Santis’ agenda as he pre pares to run for president. The federal lawsuit al leges the Escambia Coun ty School District and its School Board are violat ing the First Amendment through the removal of 10 books from library shelves. The case does not name DeSantis as a defendant though the Republican governor has championed policies that allow the cen sorship and challenging of books based on whether they are appropriate for children in schools. “Books have the capacity to change lives for the better, and students in particular deserve equitable access to a wide range of perspectives. Censorship, in the form of book bans like those enact ed by Escambia County, are a direct threat to democra cy and our Constitutional rights,” Nihar Malaviya, CEO of Penguin Random House, said in a statement. Escambia County school ofcials did not immedi ately return a request for comment. The lawsuit says the re movals stem from objec tions from one language arts teacher in the county, and in each case the school board voted to remove the books over recommenda tions from a district review committee. The teacher’s formal ob jections to the books ap pear to draw on materials compiled by a website that creates reports on books it deems ideologically unsuit able for children.DeSantis signs bills targeting drag shows, transgender treatment, bathrooms, pronouns By BRENDAN FARRINGTON Associated Press TALLAHASSEE — Flor ida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed bills Wednesday that ban gender-afrming care for minors, target drag shows, restrict discussion of personal pronouns in schools and force people to use certain bathrooms. DeSantis has made an ti-LGBTQ+ legislation a large part of his agenda as he prepares to seek the Re publican presidential nom ination. He signed the bills in front of a cheering crowd at the evangelical Cam bridge Christian School in Tampa. The ceremony had a campaign-like feel, with DeSantis tossing Sharpies to a crowd, as opposed to when he privately signed measures on abortion and gun rights. Democrats opposed the bills and LBTQ+ rallies were held at the Capitol during the session that end ed two weeks ago, but Re publicans have a super-ma jority in both chambers and easily approved the bills for DeSantis’ signature. “It’s kind of sad that we even have some of these discussions,” DeSantis told the crowd, standing behind a lectern with a sign reading “Let Kids Be Kids.” DeSantis presented a nar rative that expert panels in the nation’s major medical associations have said is false, such as the idea that children are routinely be ing “mutilated.” While he said he is protecting par ents’ rights, his opponents say he’s denying the rights of parents with transgender kids. “They have cloaked them selves in being the party of less government and paren tal rights, and what we’re seeing now is the total oppo site,” said Democratic state Sen. Shevrin Jones, who is gay. “Every other parent has the right to raise their child the way that they want to as long as your child is not gay, trans, bisexual. That’s freedom for some parents but not for all parents.” The gender care law also bans the use of state money for gender-afrming care and places new restrictions on adults seeking treatment. Planned Parenthood im mediately started canceling gender-afrming care ap pointments after the bill was signed as the organization as sesses the law’s implications. Transgender medical treat ment for children and teens is increasingly under attack in many states and has late ly been subject to restric tions or outright bans. But it has been available in the United States for more than a decade and is endorsed by major medical associations as appropriate care for peo ple diagnosed with gender dysphoria. Their guidelines generally prevent surgery for minors. Treatment typically begins with an evaluation for the distress caused when gen der identity doesn’t match a person’s assigned sex. With parental consent, persistent dysphoria can be treated with hormones, but typi cally not until age 16. The guidelines also say surgery should be reserved for peo ple 18 and older. But DeSantis spoke to ap plause at the bill-signing. “We never did this through all of human history until like, what, two weeks ago? Now this is something? They’re having third grad ers declare pronouns? We’re not doing the pronoun Olympics in Florida,” De Santis said. Alicia Devine / Tallahassee Democrat Dozens of activists stage a sit-in outside Florida Gov. Ron DeSan tis’ office and force people to step over them to reach DeSantis’ office as they speak out against the governor and his policies on May 3 in Tallahassee.DeSantis knocks Trump for implying Fla. abortion ban is ‘too harsh’ By MEG KINNARD Associated Press Gov. Ron DeSantis crit icized Donald Trump for implying that Florida’s new six-week abortion ban is “too harsh,” going after the former president as DeSan tis prepares to challenge him for the 2024 Republi can nomination. DeSantis was respond ing to a question Tuesday about Trump’s comments in The Messenger about the six-week ban that DeSantis recently signed into law. “Many people within the pro-life movement feel that that was too harsh,” Trump told the online outlet in an article published Monday. The governor contended the law has widespread sup port among opponents of abortion and he noted that Trump did not say what lim its he would back. “Protecting an unborn child when there’s a detect able heartbeat is something that almost 99 percent of pro-lifers support,” DeSan tis said at a news conference after he signed a measure to combat human trafcking. “As a Florida resident, you know, he didn’t give an answer about, ‘Would you have signed the heartbeat bill that Florida did, that had all the exceptions that peo ple talk about?’” DeSantis added. The rivalry between Trump and DeSantis is heating up as DeSantis nears a decision on a presidential campaign. DeSantis allies believe he will launch his candidacy as soon as this week, although an announcement could come closer to the end of the month. Abortion has been an early ashpoint in the still-forming Republican primary eld in the rst White House election since the Supreme Court over turned Roe v. Wade. The bickering showcases the GOP’s internal debate over hard-line abortion restric tions, which may be popu lar in a primary but could create problems in a gen eral election for the party’s eventual nominee. Asked whether he felt Trump had taken a rm enough stance on abortion, former Vice President Mike Pence – a staunch opponent of abortion who is soon expected to enter the race against his former boss – drew a line of distinction with Trump, saying he sup ported Florida’s bill and would sign such a measure as president.Jacksonville elects first female mayor, giving Florida Dems rare win in GOP-dominated state By CURT ANDERSON and BRENDAN FARRINGTONAssociated Press Democrat Donna Dee gan’s decisive win over a Republican in the open Jacksonville mayor’s race will make her the rst woman to hold the job in the Florida city’s history, sparking a icker of hope for a besieged Democratic Party that has few levers of power in a state dominated by the GOP. Deegan, 62, a former tele vision anchor who runs a breast cancer support non prot, earned 52 percent of the vote in Tuesday’s election to defeat Republi can Daniel Davis, CEO of the JAX Chamber business group, according to unof cial results. About 217,000 people voted in the race, for a turnout of 33 percent. Alvin Brown’s victory in 2011 was the last time a Democrat won the mayor’s race, and he was defeat ed in 2015 by Republican Lenny Curry. Brown was the only Democratic may or in the past 30 years. Curry could not run again this year because of term limits and Deegan will take over July 1.

Interest rates (Previous and change gures reect current contract.)Stocks up on hopes U.S. may avoid default By STAN CHOE Associated Press NEW YORK — Wall Street rallied Wednesday on hopes the U.S. government can avoid a potentially di sastrous default on its debt. The S&P 500 climbed 1.2 percent, with much of the gain coming after Pres ident Joe Biden said he’s condent “America will not default.” The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 408 points, or 1.2 percent, while the Nasdaq compos ite gained 1.3 percent. Biden’s comments came after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said late Tuesday that Democrats and Repub licans could reach a deal by the end of the week, though the two sides remain far apart. They’re staring down a June 1 deadline, which is when the U.S. government could run out of cash unless Congress allows it to bor row more. A default could rock the nancial system because Treasurys are assumed to be the safest possible invest ment on Earth, and econ omists say it would likely cause widespread damage across the economy. Wednesday’s spurt came after a long, listless stretch where the S&P 500 did not move by 1 percent over a week, up or down, for six straight weeks. That’s its longest such stretch since 2019. Congress has raised the nation’s debt limit many times in the past, and most have occurred without much impact on the stock market, according to Chun Wang, senior research ana lyst at Leuthold. The fear is something similar to 2011 occurring. That’s when Standard & Poor’s cut its credit rating for the U.S. government as it dithered in raising the debt limit. The downgrade coincided with a debt crisis aring in Europe, and they together sent Wall Street on a neck-snapping roller coaster for a week. Stocks of companies that get much of their revenue from the federal govern ment, and thus may have much to lose if it can’t pay its bills, rose Wednesday. Lockheed Martin climbed 2.1 percent, and Northrop Grumman gained 2.7 per cent. The debt negotiations are just one of the issues hang ing over Wall Street. Wor ries are also high about a possible recession hitting later this year because of much higher interest rates meant to get painful ina tion under control. One of the main positives that’s kept the economy out of a recession so far has been resilient spending by U.S. households. They’ve continued to spend even as manufacturing, the U.S. banking system and other parts of the economy have cracked under the pressure of high rates. Target offered some po tentially encouraging data on the strength of shoppers when it said its prot fell by less last quarter than ana lysts feared. But it also said that it’s seeing softening sales trends early this year, and it did not raise its fore cast for full-year earnings. Its stock rallied 2.6 percent. A day earlier, Home De pot raised worries when it cut its nancial forecasts for the year after describing pressures across its busi ness. Walmart is the next big retailer to report its re sults, and it’s coming up on Thursday. Retailers are among the last of big U.S. companies to report their prots for the start of the year. Most com panies in the S&P 500 have turned in earnings that were better than analysts feared. But they’re still on pace to nish with a second straight quarter of drops in prot from year-ago levels. Besides the “prot reces sion” underway, pressure on the U.S. banking industry has also raised worries on Wall Street. Investors have been hunting for the next possible weak link follow ing three high-prole fail ures since March. Banks are struggling with high interest rates, which have caused some custom ers to pull their deposits in search of higher yields at money-market funds and other accounts. The leap higher in interest rates over the last year has also knocked down the values of many of the investments banks hold. Much scrutiny has been on Western Alliance Bancorp and other smaller and mid-sized banks, which has led to wild swings in their stock prices. Western Alliance re covered some of its losses af ter it gave an update on its de posit levels through May 12, among other data. It jumped 10.2 percent Wednesday, though it’s still down 41.6 percent for the year so far. PacWest Bancorp, another bank under heavy scrutiny, rose 21.7 percent to trim its loss for the year to about 75.8 percent. All told, the S&P 500 rose 48.87 points to 4,158.77. The Dow gained 408.63 to 33,420.77, and the Nasdaq added 157.51 to 12,500.57. In the bond market, Trea sury yields climbed. The yield on the 10-year Trea sury rose to 3.57 percent from 3.54 percent late Tuesday. It helps set rates for mortgages and other im portant loans. The two-year yield, which moves more on expecta tions for action by the Fed eral Reserve, rose to 4.16 percent from 4.08 percent. In markets abroad, Japan’s Nikkei 225 gained 0.8 per cent after data showed the world’s third-largest econ omy grew at its strongest pace since April-June 2022. Stocks fell 2.1 percent in Hong Kong and were mixed amid modest movements in Europe.

Citrus County Chronicle Thursday, May 18, 2023 A7 D uring the County Leadership Summit held in late March, the discussion turned to the monies spent by the Tour-ist Development Council (TDC). A concern was expressed that all the mon-ey and attention was being directed toward Crystal River, primarily to promote manatees. Commissioner Holly Davis, chair of the TDC, recommended that Inverness, and other areas in the county, should submit project proposals for TDC consideration. Inverness heard the sug gestion and now has entered into discussions with the TDC about funding the creation of a campground at Whispering Pines Park. The park sits on almost 300 acres of land right in the heart of Inverness. It has amenities that would be attractive to campers: a swimming pool, splash pad, playgrounds, trails and ball elds. The idea is to locate a small campground of 100 sites or so, in a little used area of the park that is on level ground and already cleared of trees. Camping is a popular pastime, with most Florida State parks having camping facilities. A Whispering Pines campground would encourage out-of-towners who come to ball tourna-ments at the park and other visitors as well, to consid-er staying here overnight instead of returning home. Visitors would spend their money here locally, sup-porting restaurants and other local businesses. The park is ideally located near the Rails to Trails, making it easy to get to the down-town Inverness area for food and entertainment. Using tourist dollars to fund this project makes so much sense. Currently the city spends $350,000 annu ally to maintain the park, with the county contributing another $300,000 each year. The campground would be a revenue-generating en terprise that would offset tax money spent to support the park. The camping fees paid would be subject to the tourist tax and so would contribute to the funds TDC has available to promote our area. This idea certainly seems like a great plan to rejuve-nate the park. It will infuse money into the local econ-omy, take some of the tax burden off of local citizens, and provide a wholesome location for campers to en-joy the natural beauty that is Inverness. There is so much possibility and opportunity in this campground. Surely the TDC can envision what a great success this will be for tourism and for promot-ing our area to visitors. We applaud the Inverness City Council for their creative thinking to revitalize Whis-pering Pines Park. A s the National Park Ser-vice continues to break up homeless encampments, pushing them from one neighborhood to another, it’s clear our unsheltered homelessness problem isn’t go-ing away anytime soon. In 2022 Wash ington had an estimated home-less population of 4,400, and about 690 were unshel-tered. Though the total homeless population has decreased recently, the number of unsheltered homeless has remained stub-bornly high. Uncomfortable as we are with the unsheltered, we citizens largely abdicate our role in help-ing the homeless directly and leave the job to our government, which consistently struggles to x the problem. While our gov-ernment infantilizes them with paternalistic policies and vague rhetoric of compassion, citizens have learned the dehumanizing art of ignoring them altogether. By failing to engage with the homeless as fellow citizens and holding them to our own standards of acceptable behavior, we inadvertently perpetuate their disruption and neglect our role in xing the problem. I don’t say that without compassion: I see myself in all the wretchedness, mental illness and anger reected in the eyes of the homeless. When I was 20, a spat of severe depression cost me my job. Unable to make rent, I wound up homeless, and for a month, I wandered the streets feeling isolated and bitter. I needed help and was starving for even an ounce of compassion. Yet, many who might claim to have com-passion for the homeless would walk right by me without offer-ing even a glance. In ignoring me, it felt as though they denied my humanity. But I don’t blame them. Years later, once again employed and housed, I nd myself grappling with the same aversion that caused others to avoid me when I was on the street. Even though I know rsthand how harmful it is to be denied recognition from the other side of the street, it’s clear to me that in helping others, we put our goodwill on the line: Without some assurance of mutual respect and decency from those on the re ceiving end of that goodwill, few of us will take any chances. To do our part in helping our homeless neighbors, we must also hold them to a higher standard. The only people who deserve unearned decency, kindness and assistance are young children: Pretending that every homeless person deserves such help only infantilizes them. The homeless must conduct themselves appro-priately to expect recognition or help; individuals should comply only insofar as they are willing to reciprocate our respect. A few months ago, I was on my lunch break, sitting outside of a fast-food joint, when a man approached me, his ragged clothing marking him homeless. I greeted him, and he awkwardly asked if I would buy him lunch. I said I would, igniting a light of thanks in his eyes. We hardly made it into line before someone behind the counter noted the man’s appearance and demand-ed that he leave. I assured her I was paying for his food, but she ignored me, ordering him to leave and threatening to call the police. I don’t know whether she was upholding store policies or recognized him from previous encounters. But the moment of happiness that had lit his eyes at my promise instantly faded, and he began to yell at the worker, hurling ob scenities at her. The store employ ees called the police as he ed. I had tried to help him because of my compassion for his plight. My compassion was built on a respect for his status as a fellow citizen, whose shoes I might imagine myself in and from whom I might expect recip-rocated decency and respect. Though I understood his anger at a society that had rejected him, his behavior showed they were right to do so and betrayed my expectations. If he begged me for food again, I would not assist him. Only when we maintain such expectations do we have a standard that allows us to set aside our aversions and recog-nize the homeless, separating the decent from the indecent. Too often, citizens place the duty to act upon institutions, which ultimately leads to our abdication of the productive role that we can play in helping the homeless directly. Part of what makes homelessness so misera-ble is the sub-human self-image created when people ignore you. By recognizing the homeless and showing them the basic respect that we extend to others, we can do our part in mitigating their misery. We will often nd decent people underneath the rags. Genuine respect for a person entails more than compassion and no-strings-attached assis-tance – it requires that we have expectations of them, as we do for all adults. This respect can have a real effect in helping the homeless improve their self-im-age and moving them toward self-sufciency. It isn’t a grand way to show your morality, and it won’t always x things, but taking a small risk could make the difference in turning some-one’s life around.

O I have a COVID test I want to sell you We were thrown into a frenzy over COVID, with fortunes to be made in certain areas, while others lost everything due to gov ernment mandates. Small, fam ily-owned businesses ceased to exist because of these mandates. Yet, some major firms made mil lions from the losses of others. I have experienced COVID in a personal way, as its treatment changed my life and reduced my level of function. However, I am grateful to be alive, and that brings me happiness. Unfortu nately, the aftermath of COVID and the questionable actions of government and health agencies have given rise to a new scam aimed at defrauding us taxpayers by channeling funds to medical firms and possibly their govern ment connections. Around two months ago, we unexpectedly received a package of eight COVID tests that we never requested. Then the flood of COVID test kits began. As of now, we have received five ship ments of COVID test kits (four packs of two each), totaling 40 tests. These shipments came from different companies, but they provided no information about the sender or any documentation regarding who requested or ini tiated this scheme. However, it appears that Medicare was billed $100 for each shipment. I have no desire to take COVID tests that I never asked for or autho rized. They say, “Follow the money!” In this case, I believe some offi cials may have stock or financial interests in this scam. One thing is certain: taxpayers are being robbed once again. Just imagine if you could bill every Medi care family $500 for unwanted and unrequested items! What a scam! Does anyone want a pile of COVID tests? They are being sold at a low price! John Cassell Homosassa A way to create tax equity Tax Day has come and gone. Surprisingly, nearly half of Amer icans will have paid no income tax because they don’t legally owe any. Millions of other Amer icans will pay taxes, but the rates can vary widely based on circum stances. Is that fair? The debate over the fairness of income taxes continues. It is argued that every American should pay at least some income taxes to have a stake in the game. However, the income tax system is unfair, over ly complex, and almost impossi ble for me to understand. To be on the safe side, I hire someone to do my taxes annually so that I don’t end up in trouble with the IRS. Unfortunately, many Amer icans cannot afford to pay some one to do their taxes. An alternative is the FairTax, which would be a national sales tax generating the same tax rev enue as the income tax. It would be more equitable, as everyone would pay a sales tax on purchas es of new goods and services, excluding necessities due to the prebate. The FairTax rate, after necessities, would be 23 percent, compared to the combined 15 percent income tax bracket and the 7.65 percent employment payroll tax in our current system. Under the FairTax, Americans would keep their whole pay check, and Social Security would be funded more solidly through taxes on overall consumption by residents (including tourists), rather than relying solely on wage earners’ taxes. Many argue that the FairTax would burden low-income fami lies. However, this is not the case. There would be monthly prebates or “advance funds” so that pur chases made up to the poverty level are tax-free. In our current system, some people work “under the table” and do not report a sig nificant portion of their income. This costs the average taxpayer an additional $2,500 per year. With the FairTax, this money can not be hidden, as the tax is paid at the cash register for new goods and services. The IRS takes a significant portion of tax money to pay salaries and acquire equipment to run this massive bureaucratic agency. Under the FairTax, there would be no complicated tax forms, audits, or bureaucratic red tape. Retailers would collect the FairTax and turn the money over to the U.S. Treasury. There would no longer be mountains of paperwork or April 15th dead lines. Let’s put an end to the 16th Amendment (Income Tax) and all the headaches that followed its passage.

A8 Thursday, May 18, 2023 Citrus County Chronicle a long shot. The building had been an all-you-can-eat Golden Corral since 1988 but closed in March 2020, a victim of the pandemic. The owners even worked for Golden Corral for around 34 years and want ed to try a new concept. In the end, it came down to consumer preference. “I think people had hoped the old buffet format would return,” Citrus County Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Josh Wooten said. “They did a nice job with the interior remodel but at the end of the day they weren’t offer ing a product that the con sumers wanted. Hopefully they will reevaluate and go back to the Golden Corral model.” The Grill House served steaks, sh, fried chicken, wings, pizza and burgers, along with mac & cheese and other sides. There was a salad bar and no alcohol. The Jedziniaks over hauled the old place with new colors and carpet, add ed a replace. They hired 40 employees, who brought the food out to the guests’ tables. They told the Chronicle at the time they wanted the In verness restaurant to be the prototype for what could be other Grill House eateries in the area. Hundreds of people left comments on the Citrus County Live Facebook page. Here’s a sampling: Q“Saw this coming a mile away,” said Larry Tiffany. “Now bring back Golden Corral.” Q“They invested a lot of money and that’s sad,” said Susan Ahrens. “I hope they have better luck in their next adventure.” Q“Should have reopened as a renovated Golden Cor ral,” said Robert Lackner. “When you open a business you have to know your au dience and this county is an all-you-can-eat type of place.” Q“Not surprised,” said Christopher Smith. “We went there and were not impressed at all.” Q“I didn’t even realize it was open,” said Jacob Mer row.

DIXONFrom page A3Poll: Trust in high court lowest in 50 years after abortion decision By MARK SHERMAN and EMILY SWANSON Associated Press WASHINGTON — Con dence in the Supreme Court sank to its lowest point in at least 50 years in 2022 in the wake of the Dobbs decision that led to state bans and other restrictions on abor tion, a major trends survey shows. The divide between Dem ocrats and Republicans over support for abortion rights also was the largest ever in 2022, according to the General Social Survey. The long-running and widely respected survey conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago has been mea suring condence in the court since 1973, the same year that Roe v. Wade legal ized abortion nationwide. In the 2022 survey, just 18 percent of Americans said they have a great deal of condence in the court, down from 26 percent in 2021, and 36 percent said they had hardly any, up from 21 percent. Another 46 percent said they have “only some” condence in the most recent survey. The drastic change was concentrated among wom en, Democrats and those who say a woman should be able to get an abortion if she wants one “for any reason,” the survey shows. Just 12 percent of women said they have a great deal of condence in the court in 2022, down from 22 percent a year earlier and from 32 percent in 2018. Condence among Democrats fell to 8 percent in 2022 from 25 percent a year earlier. And among those who think abortion should be available to a woman who wants one for any reason, condence in the court dropped from 25 percent to 12 percent. Even among Republicans, though, condence has slipped somewhat over the past several years in a court dominated by Republi can-appointed conservative justices. Twenty-six percent said they have a great deal of condence in the court, down from 31 percent in 2021 and from 37 percent in 2018. The survey is conducted using in-person and online interviews over the course of several months. Most in terviews were conducted af ter the court’s conservative majority issued its Dobbs decision in late June that overturned Roe and all were conducted after a draft of the decision was leaked sev en weeks earlier. Support for widely avail able abortion did not change substantially between 2021 and 2022, but the poll shows support for widely available abortion has increased since 2016, when just 46 percent said that abortion should be available if a woman wants one for any reason and 54 percent said it should not. In the new survey, slightly more said it should be avail able than that it should not be, 53 percent to 47 percent. The difference is driven by skyrocketing support for abortion rights among Democrats, while Republi can levels of support are at or near a 50-year low. The 77 percent-28 percent split between Democrat and Re publicans in their backing for abortion rights is the largest-ever partisan divide on the question. Large majorities of Ameri cans said they think a wom an should be able to have an abortion if her own health is at risk, if there is a strong change of a serious defect in the baby or if the pregnancy was the result of rape. Multiple states now ban abortion with no exception in cases of rape or incest. Mississippi’s ban has an exception for rape but not incest. The General Social Sur vey has been conducted since 1972 by NORC at the University of Chica go. Sample sizes for each year’s survey vary from about 1,500 to about 4,000 adults, with margins of er ror falling between plus or minus 2 percentage points and plus or minus 3.1 per centage points. The most re cent survey was conducted May 5, 2022, through Dec. 20, 2022, and includes in terviews with 3,544 Amer ican adults. Results for the full sample have a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. Gemunu Amarasinghe / AP Abortion-rights and anti-abortion demonstrators gather outside of the Supreme Court in Wash ington on June 24, 2022.

Bryan Kohberger was arrested late last year and charged with burglary and four counts of rst-degree murder in connection with the Nov. 13, 2022, killings of Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Madison Mogen and Kaylee Goncalves at a rental home near the Uni versity of Idaho campus. At the time, Kohberger was a graduate student study ing criminology at nearby Washington State Universi ty, and the killings left the close-knit communities of Moscow, Idaho, and Pull man, Washington, reeling. A preliminary hearing – where prosecutors must show a judge that there is enough evidence to justi fy moving forward with felony charges – had been scheduled to begin June 26. But on Tuesday, a grand jury indicted Koh berger on the same crim inal charges, effectively rerouting the case directly to the state’s felony court level and allowing prose cutors to skip the prelimi nary hearing process. Court documents have already detailed much of the investigation that pros ecutors say ties Kohberger to the slayings. A white sedan allegedly matching one owned by Kohberger was caught on surveillance footage repeatedly cruising past the rental home on a dead-end street around the time of the killings. Police say traces of DNA found on a knife sheath inside the home where the students were killed matches that of the 28-year-old Kohberger.Montana becomes first state to ban TikTok By AMY BETH HANSON and HALELUYA HADERO Associated Press HELENA, Mont. — Montana became the rst state in the U.S. to enact a complete ban on TikTok on Wednesday when Re publican Gov. Greg Gi anforte signed a measure that’s more sweeping than any other state’s attempts to curtail the social media app, which is owned by a Chinese tech company. The measure, which is scheduled to take effect on Jan. 1, 2024, is expected to be challenged legally and will serve as a testing ground for the TikTok-free America that many nation al lawmakers have envi sioned. “Today, Montana takes the most decisive action of any state to protect Mon tanans’ private data and sensitive personal informa tion from being harvested by the Chinese Communist Party,” Gianforte said in a statement. TikTok spokesperson Brooke Oberwetter argued that the law infringes on people’s First Amendment rights and is unlawful. She declined to say whether the company will le a lawsuit. “We want to reassure Montanans that they can continue using TikTok to express themselves, earn a living, and nd communi ty as we continue working to defend the rights of our users inside and outside of Montana,” Oberwetter said in a statement. Keegan Medrano, policy director for the ACLU of Montana, said the Legis lature “trampled on the free speech of hundreds of thousands of Montanans who use the app to express themselves, gather infor mation and run their small business in the name of an ti-Chinese sentiment.” Some lawmakers, the FBI and ofcials at other agencies are concerned the video-sharing app, owned by ByteDance, could be used to allow the Chinese government to access in formation on American cit izens or push pro-Beijing misinformation that could inuence the public. Tik Tok says none of this has ever happened. When Montana banned the app on govern ment-owned devices in late December, Gianforte said TikTok posed a “sig nicant risk” to sensitive state data. More than half of U.S. states and the fed eral government have a similar ban. On Wednesday, Gianforte also announced he was prohibiting the use of all social media applications tied to foreign adversaries on state equipment and for state businesses in Mon tana effective on June 1. Among the apps he listed are WeChat, whose parent company is headquartered in China; and Telegram Messenger, which was founded in Russia. Gianforte had wanted to expand the TikTok bill to include apps tied to for eign adversaries, but the legislature did not send the bill to him until after the session ended, prevent ing him from offering any amendments. Montana’s new law pro hibits downloads of TikTok in the state and would ne any “entity” – an app store or TikTok – $10,000 per day for each time some one “is offered the ability” to access the social media platform or download the app. The penalties would not apply to users. Man who killed 8 in NYC terrorist attack gets 10 life sentences plus 260 years By LARRY NEUMEISTER Associated Press NEW YORK — An unre pentant and deant Islamic extremist received 10 life sentences and another 260 years in prison on Wednes day for killing eight people with a truck on a bike path in Manhattan on Halloween in 2017, as a judge decried his “callous and cowardly” crimes. “The conduct in this case is among the worst, if not the worst I’ve ever seen,” said U.S. District Judge Vernon S. Broderick, as he announced a sentence de signed to underscore the se verity of the terrorist attack Sayfullo Saipov claimed he carried out on behalf of the Islamic State group. A life sentence was man datory after a jury rejected the death penalty in March, but prosecutors had asked Broderick to impose eight consecutive life sentenc es and two concurrent life sentences. They also wanted an extra 260 years to send a stern message to other like-minded terror ists. And that’s what the judge did. Broderick cited the de ance of Saipov, who, given a chance to speak, said the tears of victims and family members in the courtroom over a six-month period would ll a single tissue while the tears and blood of the Islamic population worldwide would ll the courtroom. In a rambling rant deliv ered through a translator, Saipov spent most of an hour talking about the cre ation of religions and how the devil was instrumental in the creation of the hu man population. When he nished, a rel ative of one of his victims stood up and shouted: “The only act of the devil here is the act you did!” Then she immediately sat down and Broderick announced the sentence. “You did not and you do not care about their pain and their suffering,” the judge said of Saipov’s vic tims. He labeled Saipov’s attack as “callous and cow ardly actions” and noted that even Saipov’s rela tives, including his father, were ashamed of his crimes and “traumatized and for ever changed.” Saipov, 35, an Uzbeki stan citizen and onetime New Jersey resident, was expected to serve his sen tence at the maximum se curity prison in Florence, Colorado, for his Oct. 31, 2017 slaughter of tourists and New Yorkers. Elizabeth Williams / AP In this courtroom sketch, in federal court in New York on Wednes day, Sayfullo Saipov, center, is flanked by his attorneys, David M. Stern, left, and federal Defender Andrew John Dalack, right, during victim impact statements in the sentencing phase of his trial.

Citrus County Chronicle Thursday, May 18, 2023 A9F FOR F CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLEGifts for cooks with a craving for sustainability By KATIE WORKMAN Associated Press This time of year can be a big gift-giving moment, with Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, graduations, weddings and more. And whatever the occasion, if the recipi ent enjoys spending time in the kitchen, then food and kitchen-related gifts are a natural place to start. More and more of us are shopping and cooking with an eye toward sustainability and eco-consciousness. So here are some cooking gifts and tips that t that bill. You can start by doing a little homework on the company you’re purchas ing from. That job has been done for you if the com pany has gotten a B Corp certication. It shows that a business is meeting high standards in supporting a variety of community and environmental markers, with measurable metrics. The certication lasts three years before needing to be renewed. Another accreditation to look for is 1 percent for the Planet, which means the company has committed to donate 1 percent of annual sales to environmental caus es, and is transparent in its efforts to operate sustain ably. Climate Neutral is an organization that measure carbon accountability. Beyond such designations, visit a company’s website and see what they have to say about their practices and how the product was made. Customers are increasing ly demanding transparency and accountability in com panies they buy from.FoodPantry staples like olive oil are a great present. Compa nies like Bona Furtuna are paying attention to nurtur ing their regions’ biodiver sity. Their farm is fertilized entirely with organic matter, including compost created through the production of their olive oils. California Olive Ranch has committed to transparency and sustain able practices in both grow ing and packaging. Brightland partners with small, family-run olive farms in California that grow without pesticides or chemicals and pay fair wages to farmworkers. The brand is helping to convert land use from waterand chemical-intensive crops to drought-resistant, low-im pact olive production. McEvoy Ranch has a wide range of avor-infused ol ive oils and likewise aims to create a self-sufcient and balanced ecosystem. That includes tending orchards in accordance with organic regulations, and converting all ranch waste products, including spent olives, into compost that then nurtures the soil. Buying meat and sh in a responsible way has be come important to many of us. Luckily, there are companies like Butcher Box, which makes use of the whole animal. Butcher Box delivers grass-fed beef, free-range organic chicken, humanely raised pork and wild-caught seafood to your door. Crowd Cow, Porter Road and Good Chop are similar options, with no added hormones or antibi otics. Awareness of how fragile our oceans have become has been heightened. Organiza tions like SeaChoice and the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch are good places to start investigating the sustainability of a par ticular kind of sh. Think about buying a gift box or perhaps a monthly subscription to a company veried by one of these or ganizations. Vital Choice Wild Seafood & Organics says all its sh and shell sh are vetted and approved by a reputable third-party sustainability organization. Their orders are shipped with dry ice in corrugated cardboard boxes that are tted with thermal liners made from recycled denim, which can then be recycled again. Offerings include a Wild Fish Monthly Sub scription. If you’d like to reduce food waste and also save money, consider another cool subscription gift: Mis ts Market, which delivers produce and other healthy foods saved from going to waste. How about a gift basket? Clif Family offers assort ments of their small-pro duction organic wines and specialty foods inspired by the avors of Napa Valley, with a mission of bringing high quality with the lowest impact to the planet. Think honeys, wines, preserves and nuts. Frog Hollow Farm has lovely gift boxes lled with fresh fruits, sun-dried fruits, fruit spreads and more. Or buy some pretty reus able jars and package up an assortment of granolas. Check out One Degree Or ganics from Canada (their motto is “all ingredients from farmers we know”) and Grandy Organics, made in small batches in a solar powered factory in Maine.Kitchen goodsThere are companies pro ducing beautiful and func tional cookware and table top items with a focus on sustainability. Tag Home Décor uses natural and sustainable materials in many of their products, such as a hand woven sustainable jute rug and upcycled, salvaged-cot ton kitchen rug made on traditional pit looms. It cozies up a space and pro vides cushioning for a tired cook’s feet. They also have a hand-crafted, onyx-mar ble board made from natural stone. Goodee works with arti sans who exclusively use naturally occurring mate rials, and works to enable them to earn a sustainable living through their crafts. The company offers many items for cooking and din ing, including lovely Oax aca-made tumblers using locally sourced recycled glass and alternative energy. There’s also a beautiful pep per grinder made from sus tainably sourced teak wood. Loopy Products makes products from upcycled ag ricultural waste; their sus tainable coffee mug, made with waste from coffee manufacturing, was a Glob al Innovation Award Finalist at the Inspired Home Show this year. Their coffee, our and tea storage containers are an eco-friendly way to store staples. For the cook who wants to compost, there’s the very affordable Bamboozle com post bin. The ltered lid helps to absorb any smells caused from off-gassing. It’s made from biodegrad able bamboo ber and dish washer safe. Need items for a little bas ket of eco-friendly items for a kitchen refresh?

Tag makes textured dish cloths in lots of colors, so you can add a bright spot to cleaning up. Atelier Saucier makes lovely table linens, all sus tainably sourced, rescued or repurposed. Material Kitchen’s re Boards are BPA-free cut ting boards made of kitchen plastic scraps and renewable sugar cane. They come in a variety of beautiful colors. Sustainability means dif ferent things to different people, but these days it’s easier than ever to shop with purpose and give gifts with meaning.Don’t have udon? Try spaghetti in this ‘Asian noodle’ dish By CHRISTOPHER KIMBALL Christopher Kimball’s Milk StreetW ith bold, exciting avors and fast cooking, savory Asian noodles are ideal for weeknight meals. But what happens if all you have in the pantry is spaghetti? No problem. The cooks at Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street say Italian noodles can make a good stand-in for Asian noodles if that’s what you have. It won’t be traditional, but with the right heavy-hitting pantry staples, you can strike the same balance of sweet, savory, salty and umami. For this recipe from our book “Cook What You Have,” which draws on pantry staples to assemble easy weeknight meals, you can use udon noodles if you have them, but spaghetti or fettuccine will work just ne, too. Since we were throwing tradition out the window anyway, we decided to blend the meatiness of Sichuan dan dan mian, or spicy noodles with ground pork, with the simplicity of peanut noodles. Whisking together soy sauce, peanut butter and oyster sauce (or hoisin) creates a rich, savory sauce loaded with umami, and the creaminess of the peanut butter helps it cling to the noodles. We sauté ground pork with chili-garlic sauce, and a touch of vinegar balances the richness. Balsamic, with its sweet-tart avor, makes a good stand-in for the more traditional Chinese black vinegar.

A10 Thursday, May 18, 2023 Citrus County ChronicleGetting to know new barn kittens By GLORIA YODER The Amish Cook Editor’s note: Unfortu nately, cats are dumped in Amish country often. So strays are a part of daily life and most Amish do the best they can to care for them, which can include spaying and neutering and taking them in when they can.‘M ay we keep it and give it some milk?” “Of course, you may feed it; we’ll see about keeping it.” In a short order, Julia had warmed milk and put it in a syringe. There were little hands on all sides to help. “Mom, may I have a turn? When may I hold it?” The little kitty caught on and tried to suck it form the syringe and soon began to relax. The sad sight was about more than I could bear, especially with the stark reality lurking in the back of my mind that there are also many, many children out there who are being neglected. A while later while Austin was cradling it in his arms, he said, “Mom, I hear it – it’s purring!” It was an accomplishment. The children decided it will need a name. Various ideas were discussed. They decided it should have one that goes with other pets in the past. They talked about their Auntie’s pet baby skunk years ago, which she had named Joy Unspeak able, then there was that other kitten the children had rescued soon after that; Daddy had suggested it could be Faith Unspeakable. Now looking at the gray and white kitty, what shall it be? “Courageous.” One of them suggested. They all agreed. I tried to get more of the story about Courageous, but no one seemed to know for sure where it came from. We kept her in the house the next couple of days. Hosanna, tenderly cared for the kitten hour after hour. I explained to her how cats also enjoy sleeping a lot. That was an issue to herwhy would kitten need to lie down to sleep? She put on her sweater and carefully stuck the little kitten inside, with only part of her head peeping out, then placing her own hand over the sweater to keep her from falling out. It worked perfect. “Mom, may I take it with me to bed?” Hosanna want ed to know. “Perhaps if you have it with you all day and night it won’t learn how to be content when we put her in her bed,” I said. A couple of days later, Daniel’s nephew found a nest of ve kittens in our large warehouse, joined to the woodworking shop. Together, we went to check it out. There was no doubt that those curious little eyes in the corner staring back at us, were siblings to little Courageous. I was relieved; though Courageous had improved so much since that rst day, I felt like she really needed a mama cat to feed her, lick her, and all that mommies can do for their babies. Soon they were reunied as a family, but never would Mama Cat allow us to see her. Every now and then we’d catch a glimpse of her streaking here and there. And who knows how many mice and rats she has killed from our farm? Thanks, Mama Cat.The next day when the children went out to check on Courageous, they came back with despondent expressions“They’re gone – they’re all gone!” A few simple explanations on how Mommy cats move their babies when they think they’re in danger put their minds in slight ease. My mind went back on how important kittens were to me when I was their size. “I’ll go with you.” Soon, we had walked back past the working area in the shop, now in the warehouse we walked down the wide isles with bunks of lumber and piles of logs on either side. “Here kitty, kitty, kitty ... Come, Courageous!” Ambling on, the children helped me, “Kitty, kitty, kitty ...” “Meow!”We looked at each other then quickly walked toward where the sound was coming from. Sure enough, there came little Coura-geous, walking out toward us. She recognized our voices!” I exclaimed. Eager hands once more snuggled their precious ‘Coura-geous.’ Time and again after that, Courageous would be the tell tale of where the latest hiding place of the litter as she came to meet us. OK, now for a recipe, I don’t have any kittyfriendly recipe (though Joshua was hand-feeding it a ham chunk the other day), so I’ll give you this all-time spring favorite from Daniel’s family in Danville, Ohio. I had never tried it before I married Daniel, now my eyes widen every time I see it.

S CITRUS COUNTY CHRONICLE Section B THURSDAY, MAY 18 , 2023 By MATT PFIFFNER Sports editor JACKSONVILLE — Youth was served for the Seven Rivers Chris tian track and eld team Wednesday at the Class 1A State Championships at the University of North Flori da. Seventh-grader Juri sah Bailey placed sixth in the girls triple jump and sixth-grader Mary Sum mers earned a seventh-place medal in the 3,200 to lead the Warriors on a day where the action was halted twice due to weather. “Obviously proud of them. Very excited for their future,” head coach Monty Vann said of his young state medalists. Summers placed 13th in the 1,600-meter run earlier in the day with a time of 5:18.75. Under the lights at night, the Warrior sixth-grader jumped out to the lead in the rst lap of the 3,200 and eventually settled into the seventh spot by the end of the third lap. She would never lose that position, n ishing seventh in 11:09.48. “Mary is an amazing run ner. I’ve never seen a young girl that has such a strong kick at the end of her race. Denitely the best I’ve ever seen,” Vann said. As far as Summers com ing into state expecting to medal, she said, “Not real ly. I was just excited com ing out here. It was good competition out there. It was good running against all those girls out there.” Summers said she had a good idea where she stood in the 3,200 and knew she was in medal contention. “I thought I was in eighth place, so that’s good,” she said. Bailey grabbed a state medal in her second trip to state in the triple jump. Af ter taking 14th a year ago, she jumped all the way up to sixth this year with a leap of 10.91 meters (35-feet 9 1 / 2 -inches). That jump actually tied for fth, but Kendall Brown of Wildwood had a better second jump than Bailey by .01 meters to claim fth by tiebreaker. “Her rst jump was great but then I think she kind of tightened up,” Vann said. “But nishing sixth for a seventh grader is strong.” Bailey said, “It feels pret ty good. I didn’t do as good as I should, but at least I got on the podium and got a medal. I’m pretty happy.” The Warriors sev enth-grader expects to be back to state for a third time next year and hopes to qual ify in multiple events. “My 100 and my 4x100 team, I feel like I can get here next year and my freshman year in those,” she said. And while a pair of mid dle schoolers shined for the Warriors, brilliant athletic careers came to a close for two seniors. Julia Shipes made her sec ond straight appearance at state in the long jump and high jump. The Warrior was in position to medal in both events coming in, but an ankle injury she suffered at regionals limited her ability to perform to her usual high standard. Shipes, jumping off her left foot instead of her usual right, placed 16th in the long jump with a leap of 4.53 meters (14-feet 10 1 / 2 -inches). Her regional person al-best leap of 5.41 me ters gave her the fth-best jump coming into state and would have placed her third on Wednesday. Later in the evening Shipes competed in the high jump, an event she n ished fth in at state a year ago. But trying to jump off her injured right ankle, Shipes was limited with the power she could generate and tied for 13th with a jump of 1.42 meters (4-feet 7 3 / 4 -inches). “Super proud of Julia coming out here and bat tling,” Vann said. “She long jumped off the left foot and then she tried to do high jump off the left foot, but she said ‘No, I can’t do it. Lets go right foot.’ She’s a tough girl.” Nehamiah Vann also closed out a great high school career that saw him as a ve-year starter at quarterback, a key compo nent to the soccer team and a rst-time state qualier this spring in the discus. The discus was postponed to Thursday during the sec ond ight due to darkness. At the time of the stoppage Vann was in eighth place with his toss of 39.35 me ters (129-feet 1-inch), but many of the top throwers had yet to start. “Nehemiah had one good throw and then I came over and tried to coach him up and screwed him up,” coach Vann joked about his son. “But he did a great job.” Just before the second weather delay of the meet, the boys shot put wrapped up. Warrior junior Kamryn Johnson nished 11th with a toss of 13.93 meters (42-feet 4 1 / 4 -inches).Young Warrior medalists Seventh-grader Bailey, sixth-grader Summers place at state track meet MATT PFIFFNER / Sports editor Jurisah Bailey of Seven Rivers Christian placed sixth in the girls triple jump Wednesday at the Class 1A Track & Field State Championships at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville.

By RONALD BLUM AP Baseball Writer NEW YORK — Francisco Álvarez hit a tying three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning and Pete Alonso hit a game-ending three-run shot in the 10th, giving the New York Mets an improbable 8-7 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday night. New York trailed 2-0 be fore Mark Vientos, a rookie brought up from the minors for his season debut, tied the score with a two-run homer in the seventh off side-arm er Ryan Thompson. Brandon Lowe put the Rays back ahead with a two-run homer off Adam Ottavi no in a three-run eighth that built a 5-2 lead. Álvarez homered on a sweeper from Jason Adam, a 426-foot shot off the fac ing of the left-eld second deck, to send the game into extra innings. The Rays opened a 7-5 lead when pinch-hitter Harold Ramirez and Josh Lowe had run-scoring singles in the 10th against David Robert son (1-0). Jeff McNeil singled off Pete Fairbanks (0-1) lead ing off the bottom half, and Alonso pulled a fastball into the left-eld second deck for his 15th home run of the season, sending the Mets running onto the eld following their rst walk-off win this season. It was the fourth career walk-off homer for Alonso, and the Mets won for the rst time this year in a game they trailed by three runs. New York and the ma jor league-best Rays meet Thursday in the rubber game of the series as the Mets try to stop a streak of six straight series losses. Tampa Bay stole seven bases. Wander Franco and Taylor Walls stole two each, and Randy Arozarena, Luke Raley and Josh Lowe one apiece. Isaac Paredes hit an RBI double in the fourth for the Rays off an otherwise over powering Kodai Senga, who struck out a season-high 12. Jose Siri boosted the lead to 2-0 when he homered for the second straight night, a seventh-inning drive off Jeff Brigham. Senga allowed three hits and three walks as his fam ily arrived from Japan and watched him pitch for the rst time this season. His strikeouts, the most by a Mets rookie since Noah Syndergaard in 2015, prompted fans in the left-eld seats to hang 12 ghost Alonso 3-run HR in 10th caps Mets rally over Rays Frank Franklin II / AP Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe, right, cele brates with teammates Randy Arozarena after they scored on a 2-run home run by Lowe during the eighth inning against the New York Mets on Wednesday in New York. By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Four layers of clothes, beanies and hand warmers were everywhere on the eve of the PGA Championship, a reminder how this major will be different from the previous six at Oak Hill. The temperature was 37 degrees – it felt colder with a morning breeze – and it made the 7,394 yards on the scorecard of a par 70 feel even longer. “I still can’t believe it’s nearly middle of May and that we’re still going through 40-, 50-degree weather,” Jason Day said. “But that’s this part of the country at this time of the year.” Ockie Strydom of South Africa was on the 10th tee, taking practice swings and waiting for the clock to hit 7 a.m. for the course to of cially open. “Have you no friends?” someone called out to him. Strydom laughed and re plied, “You’d have to be crazy to play in this.” Such was the risk of the PGA Championship mov ing from August to May. The good news for Day, world No. 1 Jon Rahm, de fending champion Justin Thomas and the rest of the 156-man eld was Wednes day was a blip on an other wise pleasant forecast. As for the difculty, that’s not likely to change. Oak Hill, restored to the intent of famed architect Donald Ross, is likely to test every thing. Jordan Spieth was asked to describe the rough and he took it a step further. “It’s about as nasty ... there’s nothing that sep arates this from a U.S. Open,” Spieth said. “This is a U.S. Open. The fairways are rm and narrow, and the rough is thick. As far as difculty, it feels like a U.S. Open course. Par is a nice score.” Jason Dufner is the only player to reach double dig its under par (10-under 270) in the six majors at Oak Hill – three U.S. Opens, three PGAs. That was 10 years ago in August, when rain soaked the course and left the greens soft and vulner able. This effectively is a new course – it certainly looks that way. The bunkers are deeper, with steep, nearly vertical lips. Some greens have deep rough on one side and closely mown areas on the other that send balls rolling some 20 yards away. Thomas went long of the 230-yard third green. He tried a op shot back up the slope the putting surface and it kept rolling until it was back in the fairway. There is trouble every where, capable of punishing mistakes. “You miss greens out here, you’re going to make a lot of bogeys,” two-time PGA champion Brooks Koepka said. “You miss fairways, PGA Championship promises a strong course for the strongest field See PGA , page B3 See WARRIORS , page B3 See RAYS , page B3

Bryson Stott homered for Philadelphia, which lost its fourth in a row. With the game tied at 4, J.D. Davis and Mitch Haniger began the eighth inning with pinch-hit singles. Joey Bart followed with a bunt single to load the bases. After Gregory Soto (1-3) retired LaMonte Wade Jr., Estrada looped a single to shallow center field, scoring the go-ahead run. Flores added a two-run single. The Phillies loaded the bases with two outs in the ninth, but Camilo Doval struck out Trea Turner swinging to record his third straight save in the series and his 11th in 12 chances this season. John Brebbia (2-0) pitched a scoreless eighth inning for the win as the San Fran cisco bullpen combined to allow one run in 5 2 / 3 innings for the second straight day. Rockies 11, Reds 6 DENVER – Elias Díaz drove in three runs and Kris Bryant, Jurickson Profar and Brenton Doyle each had two RBIs in a two-inning, 11-run outburst for Colorado. The Rockies sent 19 batters to the plate and recorded 10 hits while scoring five times in the fifth and six more times in the sixth. Doyle’s two-run triple put Colorado ahead to stay in its 11th win in 16 games. Reds starter Graham Ashcraft (2-2) was charged with seven runs and 10 hits in five-plus innings. Backup catcher Luke Maile homered and drove in two runs as the Reds built an early lead before collapsing as they fin ished a 2-4 trip. Brent Suter (2-0) worked a scoreless sixth for the Rockies to pick up the win. Pirates 8, Tigers 0 DETROIT – Rich Hill gave up one hit in six innings, Austin Hedges drove in three runs and Pittsburgh rolled past Detroit. The 43-year-old Hill (4-3), the oldest active player in the majors, allowed just Matt Vierling’s infield single and two walks while striking out seven. A trio of relievers completed the shutout as Pittsburgh won for just the third time in 15 games. Rodolfo Castro homered and knocked in two runs, while Bryan Reynolds contrib uted three hits and scored two runs. Tigers starter Eduardo Rodríguez (4-3_, who had allowed just two runs in his pre vious six starts, gave up four runs and six hits in five innings. Detroit manager A.J. Hinch was ejected for the first time this season during the fourth inning. He was tossed by home plate umpire Nic Lentz for arguing balls and strikes. Blue Jays 3, Yankees 0 (10) TORONTO – Danny Jansen hit a threerun homer in the 10th inning and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the New York Yan kees 3-0 on Wednesday night. Long after Blue Jays starter Chris Bas sitt and Yankees ace Gerrit Cole exited a scoreless duel, Jansen’s fourth homer of the season came on the first pitch he saw from reliever Wandy Peralta (2-1). Whit Merrifield reached on shortstop Anthony Volpe’s error to begin the bottom of the 10th as automatic runner Cavan Biggio advanced from second to third. New York moved left fielder Oswaldo Cabrera into the infield, and Alejandro Kirk grounded out to shortstop before Jansen followed with his game-winning drive to left. Toronto closer Jordan Romano (3-2) tossed one inning for the win. Bassitt, who pitched a two-hitter against Atlanta in his previous start, went seven innings to extend his career-best scoreless streak to 27. Bassitt allowed three hits, all singles, walked one and struck out seven. The right-hander hasn’t allowed a run since an April 30 home start against Seat tle, when he gave up a grand slam in the first inning. Only Roger Clemens (33 con secutive scoreless innings in 1998) and Dave Stieb (34 straight shutout innings between 1988 and 1989) have had longer streaks for Toronto. Braves 6, Rangers 5 ARLINGTON, Texas – Orlando Arcia hit a tiebreaking solo homer with two outs in the ninth inning and the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves beat the Texas Rangers 6-5. Ronald Acuña Jr. homered in his fourth consecutive game for the Braves, and Eddie Rosario had a two-run shot in the second that ended Texas starter Nathan Eovaldi’s scoreless streak at 29 2/3 innings. Adolis García went deep twice for AL West leader Texas. Those solo shots extended his MLB-best RBI total to 46. The Braves won two of three in Texas after getting swept in three games at Toronto last weekend. Red Sox 12, Mariners 3 BOSTON – Pablo Reyes doubled twice for a career-high four RBIs to help the Boston Red Sox beat the Seattle Mariners 12-3 on Wednesday night. Justin Turner had a two-run homer, Rafael Devers and Kiké Hernández also each drove in two runs and right-hander Brayan Bello (3-1) won on his 24th birthday, allowing one run on three hits in five innings with five walks and seven strikeouts. Left-hander Marco Gonzalez (3-1) took the loss.

RAYSFrom page B1 By KYLE HIGHTOWER Associated Press BOSTON — Jimmy Butler scored 35 points, including 23 after half time, and the Miami Heat rallied in the second half to beat the Boston Celtics 123-116 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference nals on Wednesday night. Miami trailed by nine at the half before turning it around with a franchise playoff-record 46 points in the third and outscor ing Boston 66-50 over the nal two quarters. It was Butler’s fth game with 30 or more points this post season and he added seven assists, six steals and ve rebounds. Bam Adebayo added 20 points and eight rebounds. Kyle Lowry, Caleb Martin and Gabe Vincent and Max Strus all added 15 points apiece. The Heat went 16 of 31 from the 3-point line. The No. 8-seeded Heat have opened all three play off series with road victo ries. Game 2 is Friday in Boston. Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 30 points, but didn’t take a shot in the fourth quarter. Jaylen Brown nished with 22 points and nine rebounds. Malcolm Brogdon added 19 points. The tip-off of Wednes day’s series marked the third time in four seasons that the Heat and Celtics have met in the conference nals. Boston won last year’s matchup in seven games. Wednesday’s opener felt every bit like a continu ation of that most recent meeting. Boston dominated inside early on and led by nine at halftime. Miami took a page out of the Celtics’ book and used a 13-1 run to quickly erase that gap and then nudged back in front in the third quarter, as Butler penetrat ed to create opportunities for his teammates. The Heat outscored the Celtics 46-25 in the period and took a 103-91 lead into the fourth, prompting a few boos from the TD Garden crowd. Boston responded, scor ing the rst seven points of the nal period before a 3-pointer by Vincent ended the run. Miami led 114-109 with just over three minutes to play when Brogdon was fouled by Butler. But he connected on just 1 of the 2 free throws. Butler was trapped on the next Miami possession before nding Martin for a corner 3. Tatum travelled, giving the ball back to the Heat. A Mi ami miss gave the ball back to Boston, but Tatum was called again for travelling. Miami wound the shot clock down before getting a 3-pointer to rattle in with 1:03 remaining. The Celtics let Butler get loose early and he made them pay with 12 rst-quar ter points. Boston’s defense tight ened in the second and Butler didn’t take another shot until the 5:45 mark, an airball resulting in a shot clock violation. His second attempt of the quarter a few minutes later had the same result. He went into inter mission with 15 points. Meanwhile, the Celtics attacked the rim, outscoring the Heat 40-16 in the paint in the opening 24 minutes – the most allowed by Miami in a half this season. Boston also held an 11-2 advantage in second-chance points.Tip-insHeat: Miami’s previous high in the playoffs was 43 points against Charlotte in 2016. … Lowry hit 5 of his rst 6 shots, scoring 13 points in his rst nine min utes of action. … Butler (12) and Adebayo (6) com bined for 18 of Miami’s 28 points in the rst quarter. It marked the seventh time Butler has reached double gures in the rst period this postseason. Celtics: Marcus Smart nished with 13 points and 11 assists. … Led 66-57 at halftime. With the score tied at 47, Boston out scored Miami 19-10 over the nal 5:26 of the half. … Brown wore his black protective mask after going without it for the nal two games of their seminals matchup with the 76ers. He fractured a facial bone late in the regular season. … New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was in attendance.Butler scores 35, Heat rally to beat Celtics in East finals openerThat was just short of his regional-winning toss of 13.98 meters. Coach Vann said the nerves of the state meet may have gotten to the ju nior in his rst trip. “He’ll be back here next year. I think he’ll be ready to go next year,” Vann said. The nal Warrior compet itor was freshman Annalise de Beer in the girls triple jump, where she placed 14th with a personal-best leap of 10.49 meters (34-feet 5-inches). “Annalise PR’d. So proud of her,” Vann said. “You come in dead last on the start list and beat three or four girls out, she’s got bet ter every time she’s com peted.” With four state qualiers and a pair of medalists re turning, Vann is already ex cited about next season. “A lot to look forward to. It’s going to be a fun year next year,” he said. “It’s always fun working with kids and watching them get better.” WARRIORSFrom page B1 MATT PFIFFNER / Sports editor Kamryn Johnson of Seven Rivers Christian placed 11th in the Class 1A shot put competition Wednesday at the state meet in Jacksonville. you’re going to be making quite a few bogeys if you’re out of position.” Koepka is coming off a runner-up nish at the Masters, where he had the 54-hole lead until Rahm tracked him down on the nal day. He arrived at Au gusta National having won a LIV Golf event in Florida. He is healthy again, and Koepka seemed to take his game up a notch for the majors because of the disci pline it requires. That’s the word Rory McIlroy used to describe what it takes at Oak Hill, and Koepka con curred. “It’s a grind,” Koepka said. “A major week is always tough. It’s always going to be a tough golf course. You’ve got to plot your way around, understand where to miss it, where not to miss it. It just comes down to discipline. I feel like every time I’ve won, I’ve been super disciplined. ... I think that’s a massive thing to win a major.” Dustin Johnson won on the Saudi-funded series last week in Oklahoma, deliv ering clutch birdies on the 18th in regulation and in a three-man playoff. He appears to be back in form, and to Johnson, it didn’t matter where he was playing or how many guys he had to beat in the 48-man elds. “Still playing against un believably good golfers,” Johnson said. “To be honest, the scores the last few tour naments we played were a lot lower than I thought they would be. You’ve got to play well every single day if you want a chance to win. The game last week, a lot of really good things. I’m driving it well, controlling the distance with the irons, starting to wedge it a lot bet ter, and then rolled in a few putts. “It’s nice coming off a win, coming into this cham pionship, and especially this golf course.” It all gets started Thursday, with temperatures again ex pected to be bone-chilling in the morning before yielding to warmer weather – cer tainly not August weather – later in the day and through the rest of the week. The PGA Championship again features the strongest eld of the majors, with only the injured Will Zalato ris missing from the top 100 players in the world. A strong eld, a strong course. “This is going to be a big golf course to handle,” Tony Finau said. “None of the holes I played I looked at and said, ‘I’m going to bird ie this hole this week for sure.’ It’s going to be that type of test. The guys that can mentally overcome the hurdle of just trying to stay patient ... you just have to play well for all four days if you’re going to win this week.” PGAFrom page B1

the “Fast & Furious” franchise jumped the shark, but there is only one correct answer: When the Pontiac Fiero went into space. Weightless and violating every physical law, the oating car – tasked with bumping a satellite in the ninth installment – was the very symbol of how bloated and crazed the once-plucky series had become. There re ally was no way down after that. And yet we have come to 10, part of a planned series of lms nally saying goodbye. “Fast X” is, thank fully, shackled to Earth’s gravity – sometimes tenuously, it must be said – but it has become almost camp, as if it breathed in too much of its own fumes. “Fast X” reaches into the fth movie – 2011’s “Fast Five” – for the seeds to tell a new story. In a mem orable moment ve movies ago, Vin Diesel’s Dom Toretto wrecked a bad guy and his team on a bridge in Rio de Janeiro. Little did we know then, but that bad guy had a son who survived and now, years later, vows vengeance. That’s it. That’s the plot. That said, “Fast X” is monstrously silly and stupidly entertaining – just Wile E. Coyote stuff, ridiculous stunts employing insane G-forces and everything seemingly on re. There are elements of “Mission: Im possible,” 007 and “John Wick,” as if all the action franchises were some how merging. But here’s a warning: It careens to an end without a payoff, a more dangerous stunt than any in the movies themselves. The lm would not be near enough as fun without Jason Momoa, who plays the bad guy’s son as a full-on amboyant psycho, licking a knife clean after killing someone with it and painting the toenails of a dead victim as he displays the corpse in a demented garden party. “Never ac cept death when suffering is owed,” he says. He is half Joaquin Phoenix from “The Joker” and half Jack Sparrow from “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Momoa has a penchant for planning explosions and then standing on a high spot and throwing his arms wide like Christ the Redeemer as the blast wave hits. The lm sags as soon as he’s not in it. Momoa is part of the franchise’s familiar tactic of stacking ever more stars with not enough to do – this time we also welcome Brie Larson, Alan Ritchson, Daniela Melchior and Rita Moreno. There’s even a Pete Davidson cameo. That’s on top of regulars Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Jordana Brew ster, John Cena, Jason Statham, Charlize Theron, Sung Kang, Scott Eastwood and Helen Mirren, whose attempt once again at a work ing-class accent is comical. This is a clown car of talent. The poster for the lm includes 14 characters, like an Avengers movie. At the center is the always-sleeve less Diesel, who keeps getting ex posed as a truly terrible actor, one who evidently only attended the Brooding 101 seminar in drama school. The lmmakers usually just prop him up in front of a wall of fam ily photos and he stares at them in tently. “I only care about protecting the people that I love,” he will growl. Family – as fans of the franchise know well – is always central, or rather, a gothic zero-sum notion of blood’s bond explained with soap opera dialogue. Toretto must protect family no matter the cost (but appar ently OK with leaving his 8-year-old son in someone else’s care as he drag races in Rio). “You know what your problem is?” teases Momoa. “Fami ly. You can’t save them all.” New director Louis Leterrier – from a screenplay by veteran Justin Lin and newcomers Zach Dean and Dan Mazeau – take us from Los Angeles to Antarctica, threatening much of Rome with a 20 kiloton bomb along the way and ending the movie at the side of a dam in Por tugal in a cliffhanger. Stick around for the credits and even more me ga-stars are promised for the next installment. What you get this time are two bru tal hand-to-hand ghts, a car smash ing two helicopters and rush hour trafc, car bombs, remote-controlled cars (big and small), vehicles that leap into the sky like salmon and a plane that drops a souped-up racer from its belly onto the highway. Taking material from “Fast Five” means the delicate task of returning to Paul Walker, the franchise veter an who died in 2013. Old footage of Walker does appear in “Fast X” as the movie recreates events on that Rio bridge. It is handled respectfully and coolly. In a nice touch, Walker’s daughter, Meadow, has a cameo as a ight attendant. With a foot in the past, one in the future and one on the gas, “Fast X” is pure popcorn lunacy. Was that too many feet? Oh, excuse us, you want ed logic? “Fast X,” a Universal Pictures re lease, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for intense sequences of violence and action, language and some sugges tive material. Running time: 134 minutes. Three stars out of four. By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Thursday, May 18, the 138th day of 2023. There are 227 days left in the year. Highlight in history:On May 18, 1980, the Mount St. Helens volcano in Washing ton state exploded, leaving 57 people dead or missing. On this date:In 1652, Rhode Island became the first American colony to pass a law abolishing African slavery; however, the law was apparently never enforced. In 1863, the Siege of Vicks burg began during the Civil War, ending July 4 with a Union vic tory. In 1896, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Plessy v. Ferguson, endorsed “separate but equal” racial segregation, a concept renounced 58 years later by Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka. In 1910, Halley’s Comet passed by earth, brushing it with its tail. In 1927, in America’s deadliest school attack, part of a school house in Bath Township, Michi gan, was blown up with explo sives planted by local farmer Andrew Kehoe, who then set off a bomb in his truck; the attacks killed 38 children and six adults, including Kehoe, who’d earlier killed his wife. (Authorities said Kehoe, who suffered financial difficulties, was seeking revenge for losing a township clerk elec tion.) In 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a measure creating the Tennessee Valley Authority. In 1998, the U.S. government filed an antitrust case against Microsoft, saying the powerful software company had a “choke hold” on competitors that was denying consumers important choices about how they bought and used computers. (The Jus tice Department and Microsoft reached a settlement in 2001.) In 2015, President Barack Obama ended long-running fed eral transfers of some com bat-style gear to local law enforcement in an attempt to ease tensions between police and minority communities, say ing equipment made for the battlefield should not be a tool of American criminal justice. In 2020, President Donald Trump said he’d been taking a malaria drug, hydroxychloro quine, and a zinc supplement to protect against the coronavirus despite warnings from his own government that the drug should be administered only in a hospital or research setting. Ten years ago: A car driven by an 87-year-old man plowed into dozens of hikers during a parade in Damascus, Virginia, injuring about 50 people. (The driver, who suffered from a medical condition, was not charged.) Five years ago: A 17-year-old armed with a shotgun and a pistol opened fire at a Hous ton-area high school, killing eight students and two teach ers. (Dimitrios Pagourtzis is charged in state court with cap ital murder; his attorney says he is facing 11 federal charges.) One year ago: Nearly 1,000 last-ditch Ukrainian fighters who had held out inside Mariupol’s pulverized steel plant surren dered, Russia said, as the battle that turned the city into a world wide symbol of defiance and suffering draws toward a close.

Citrus County Chronicle Thursday, May 18, 2023 B5A & P A guilty guy ponders a late apologyDEAR AMY: Years ago, I had an affair with the wife of a good friend (and co-worker). The affair ended my marriage, but somehow they managed to hold theirs together. They are still together today. Even though we all live in the same city our paths very seldom cross, but when they have, we all act like we don’t even know each other. We have not exchanged one word since the affair ended. I truly would like to apologize for the role that I played in this mess but am unsure about whether that would be a helpful thing at this point. I don’t know what bringing this subject back up after all this time might do to their relationship. This thought has left me un-able to move forward with an apology. Do you think that writing a letter of apology to both of them would be appro-priate? – Guilty Guy DEAR GUILTY: I don’t think writing a letter of apology is necessarily appropriate, but this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. You should very carefully interrogate your reasons for wanting to do this, and walk through the possible unintended consequences to this couple. In short, who are you doing this for? Delivering an apology could de nitely help you, but is there any way this could help them? Your regret and acceptance of responsibility is laudable, but if you are looking for forgiveness, you should start by for-giving yourself. You did a very regretta-ble thing, setting into motion some stark consequences. Contacting this couple would insert you back into their lives, at least tempo-rarily. An apology letter would probably not make your occasional meetings more comfortable, but if you chose to write one, it seems to me that it should be sent to your friend and former co-worker – the husband you helped to betray – versus the two of them. You also don’t say how you handled betraying your former wife, but writing a letter of apology to her would be a very good idea. I heartily endorse an effort to make amends with her. DEAR AMY: Last month the spouse of a longtime friend sent a text to my spouse and myself to “save the date” for an up-coming surprise retirement party. The text included the venue, date and time. My spouse and I both responded the same day, saying we would both attend. We just received a follow-up text with the timing of when to show up. The text also contained information on the elaborate menu, and said that wine was included. We were both shocked to see that guests had to bring $50 in cash or a check to pay for the meal and wine. There is also a cash bar.Nowhere in the details did they mention “no gifts.” We are at a loss for words.What is the polite way to back out of attending? Neither of us want to go now. – UpsetDEAR UPSET: I think you should consider very carefully whether you really want to back out of this event. Yes, the parameters do not align with what you’d expected, but you might ultimately regret it if you didn’t go. Think of it this way: If you and your spouse took your longtime friend out to dinner to celebrate this retirement, you would pick up the check to cover the retir-ing friend’s dinner and it would cost you at least $100 to celebrate. Nor are you obligated to bring a gift to a retirement dinner if you aren’t inclined (though you should bring a card). However, if you can’t or don’t want to pay to help cover the costs of this party, you should text the spouse back quickly and say, “We’re so sorry to say that, un-fortunately we won’t be able to make it to the party. We apologize for any confusion, and hope you have an absolutely wonder-ful time on the night.” DEAR AMY: “Seeking Family Connection” was trying to sustain the extended family’s monthly Zoom calls. Why do their calls have to be an hour in length? I try to get our distanced family together for Zoom calls that only last 10 to 15 min-utes, just for everyone to check in. With all the different schedules we are lucky to manage even that.

You may attract fans who admire your trust-worthy nature, but there could be people in your life you cannot always trust. Be discerning. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Building something wonderful can attract those who want something from you. The people who appear on your radar now could be attracted by your aura of power but may also hope to take advantage of what you have built. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Be cautious or you may get caught up in a wild goose chase or a workplace debacle. You might become obsessed about a mon-eymaking proposition, but this could be a poor time for major purchases or signing contracts. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Fight off possible friction or aggravations. You could be in a huge rush, with a lengthy to-do list. You might find yourself at odds with someone who prefers to be in charge or does not agree with your way of doing things. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your hard work and/or having an impressive partner may give you some added prestige in the outer world. Yet some crossed wires might prevent you from realizing your dreams. Hold off on starting new ventures for now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may become the target of a drive-by friendship, and your sympathies could be called forth for the wrong reasons. A new relationship might prove to be emotionally or financially costly, or eventually fall apart. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Poor judgment can cause you to be sent back to the starting gate. This is not a suitable time to make major purchases or com-mitments because you or your companions may be too vague about the most essential facts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your crystal ball may be foggy so you cannot tell what tomorrow could bring. It might be a good idea to sit on your hands and avoid controversies for a few days. Someone’s greed can get in the way of common sense. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) What you see is not always what you get. Someone could easily mislead you or hide their true intentions behind a flattering mask. Avoid signing agreements, buying on credit or making new investments for now. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Some people admire your success, hoping some of that power may rub off on them. Other people could become jeal-ous or more competitive. You can be influential but may sometimes need to work to hold on to your crown. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Once you have set your inten-tions, you can be a powerhouse of relentless drive and ambition. If you begin a project today, how-ever, you may encounter resis-tance and more competition than you anticipated. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You can be generous with your friends and less so with your enemies. Financial transactions may not run smoothly due to a misunderstanding. This is defi-nitely not the time to push your luck or to cover up mistakes. 6ROXWLRQWR:HGQHVGD\·VSX]]OH ‹7KH0HSKDP*URXS'LVWULEXWHGE\ 7ULEXQH&RQWHQW$JHQF\$OOULJKWVUHVHUYHG 5/18/23 6ROXWLRQWR7KXUVGD\·VSX]]OH grid so each row, (in bold borders) contains every on how to solve ‹7KH0HSKDP*URXS'LVWULEXWHGE\ 7ULEXQH&RQWHQW$JHQF\$OOULJKWVUHVHUYHG

Helio Castroneves’ mis erable start to the season has stretched through all ve races, including last week on the road course at Indianapolis Motor Speed way, where an engine fail ure during practice cost him an entire on-track ses sion. Now it’s time to prepare for the Indianapolis 500 and Castroneves, one of only four four-time win ners, is hoping “The Great est Spectacle in Racing” is where he and Meyer Shank Racing can turn their sea son around. Castroneves and teammate Simon Pa genaud are 21st and 23rd in the standings – the sec ond-lowest ranked full-time organization in Indy Car behind only A.J. Foyt Racing. “I’m not panicked, but I never like to run poorly. Never,” team owner Mi chael Shank told The As sociated Press on Wednes day. “This is not something I take lightly. I want to go over and pound the wall with my head. That’s what I really want to do. “But we need to show strength within the orga nization so that we can overcome some of these obstacles. And when we do, it will be super sweet.” Castroneves has a similar attitude, likening it to what seven-time Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton is going through as Hamil ton tries to help Mercedes rebuild its current car into a contender. “Sometimes there are moments that I think any one, not only myself, but anyone, they go through a bad situation,” Castro neves said. “But it happens and I don’t put myself into any category like ‘Oh, why me?’ No. I’ve just got to continue moving on and working hard, and some times you have to look into other areas and that’s what we are doing now.” Problem is, MSR is struggling to diagnose why its cars are not competi tive. Castroneves’ 10th-place nish at Texas Mo tor Speedway is the only top-10 for either driver this season; Castroneves and Pagenaud, once team mates at Team Penske, have a combined ve Indy 500 wins and one IndyCar championship. “The start of the season has been no good,” said Pagenaud. “I’m trying as hard as I can and my teammate is, as well. It’s honestly just very tough. We haven’t had good luck. We’ve had crashes. We’ve had mistakes. “We’ve just got to re group and hope that at some point things turn around.” It would be fantastic if it happened at Indianapolis, where Castroneves in 2021 earned his fourth victory in the Indy 500 in what was Shank’s rst career Indy Car win. The Castroneves victory helped Shank ex pand in 2022 to two full-time cars with the Brazil ian given one of the seats. Jack Harvey had decided to leave the team so Shank snapped up Pagenaud, who rebuffed a Penske offer to move to sports car racing in favor of remaining in the IndyCar series. Shank liked that Castro neves and Pagenaud had a previous working rela tionship and friendship, and it’s paid dividends for Pagenaud as this season has not produced the re sults they expected. The two were part of Shank’s season-opening IMSA win in the Rolex 24 at Daytona, but the IndyCar program has been a major struggle. Shank said he’s willing to make wholesale person nel changes to the organi zation – and that includes drivers – “either this year or next year to get the re sults we need.” But there’s nothing im mediate planned with full attention on the May 28 race. “Right now we’re fully focused on getting some thing this week and next week, this is what real ly counts for us, and how can we maximize,” Shank said. “I’ve got two really good boys at this place. They know exactly what they need. If it’s not right, they pull in so we can x it. We’re doing everything we can to turn this thing around over the next two weeks.” Castroneves by nature is upbeat and enthusias tic, even in the darkest of times. “Life is a challenge. It is full of tests,” he said. “I don’t think this is a test, to be honest. I think this is just a way to show that when you’re down, you’re able to rise. You’re able to work and instead of looking for problems, you are looking for solutions. Maybe I am getting old but it is actually motivating me to keep going and nding answers.” Castroneves, who turned 48 earlier this month, has won two Rolex 24’s at Daytona and the Indy 500 with Shank and doesn’t want to transition out of a full-time ride at the end of the season. It comes amid mounting pressure on Shank to give reign ing IMSA champion Scott Blomqvist a shot in Indy Car, but Castroneves is not paying attention to the speculation just yet. “Nobody wants to be where I’m running,” Cas troneves said. “But I don’t want to all of a sudden say something – like, it’s easy to call it quits. That’s not me. So no, I would like to do a full IndyCar season.” That attitude and ap proach from Castroneves has been helpful as Pa genaud – one of the drivers collected with Castroneves in the season-opening rst lap crash – has dealt with his disappointing start. “Just his presence be cause he is joyful, nds a good level even when days are tough,” Pagenaud said. “I’m a little more of a grinder and some days are tough to kind of grind and dig and get better as a team. That can be tough on people sometimes. It’s tough on myself, denite ly tough on everybody. Helio is not grumpy. I don’t know how he does it.”Castroneves and Pagenaud hope to jumpstart season for Shank at Indy By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Ry der Cup captain Zach John son wants an American team that has chemistry and ca maraderie, a 12-man squad that is built for a course like Marco Simone in Italy. Whether that includes Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka remains unknown. Both have signed on with Saudi-funded LIV Golf and have been suspended from the PGA Tour, which is where the majority of points are earned toward getting one of six automatic spots. Even winning one major is not likely to be enough. The captain has six wildcard picks he can use on any American. His struggle is not being around Johnson and Koepka to measure their game. Is Dustin Johnson, com ing off a LIV Golf win last week in Oklahoma, current ly among the best 12 Ameri cans in golf? “Really difcult for me to judge that,” Zach Johnson said. “Again, I don’t know the golf courses they’re play ing. Never seen them. I’m not there on foot in person. You’re talking about an indi vidual whose resume is ex tremely deep and wide. He’s certainly in my generation one of the best players I’ve ever competed against. “But it’s not fair for me to guess his true form or any body’s true form that I can’t witness.” Koepka is a four-time ma jor champion who has re covered from a long list of injuries, some nagging and some requiring surgery. He not only has won two LIV Golf events since last fall, he had the 54-hole lead at the Masters and was runner-up. “I haven’t really seen where he’s at since Augus ta,” Zach Johnson said. Koepka missed a playoff in Singapore by one shot, and last week in Oklahoma had a 65-65 nish and tied for fth. “He played really good that one week, but it’s one week,” the captain said of Koepka at the Masters. “I don’t want to sit here and say that it’s concrete, it’s the only thing we’re going to be looking at. It’s one week, at a major venue, at the Mas ters tournament. He played great. There’s still a lot of golf between now and then.” That much is true on any tour. The PGA Champion ship is the second of four majors for top LIV players, such as Johnson and Koep ka. Ryder Cup points for Americans is based pure ly on money from PGA Tour-sanctioned events – majors included – and there are four more $20 million events that LIV golfers can’t play. Dustin Johnson went 5-0 at the last Ryder Cup, an American rout at Whistling Straits. He got off to a slow start on LIV this year, which he attributed to a tweak in his back that got him in some habits. But he looked strong as ever, particularly off the tee, winning in Oklahoma. “I have no idea if I’d get picked. Obviously if I con tinue to play really well for the rest of the year, then ob viously there’s a chance,” he said. “Yes, I would denite ly like to play in the Ryder Cup. It’s one of my favorite events to play in, especially after the last Ryder Cup.” Koepka has played on the last three Ryder Cup teams and he would love to make it four. His only thought is to play his best and see where it leads. That’s all he can do. “It’s tough to be in Zach’s mind or where he is at, but I would love to make it hard on him,” Koepka said. “I think that would be cool. The only thing I can do is go play good. If I play good, everything takes care of itself.” Johnson is trying to do what no U.S. captain has done since Tom Watson in 1993 at The Belfry in En gland – lead is team to victo ry on European soil. The last attempt was out side Paris in 2018. Jus tin Thomas was the only American who played Le Golf National in the French Open. When the stacked U.S. team arrived, the course had lush rough and narrow fairways, and Europe won handily. The Italian Open at Mar co Simone was held two weeks ago and hardly any one played from either tour because it was up against a $20 million tournament and the PGA Championship was approaching.Ryder Cup captain Johnson still not sure where DJ, Koepka fit in Darron Cummings / AP Helio Castroneves, of Brazil, talks with his crew during qualifications for the IndyCar Grand Prix auto race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway last Friday in Indianapolis.
