On a 3-2 vote Tuesday, theJackson County Commis-sion directed AdministratorWilanne Daniels to request thatFlorida’s Auditor General con-

duct an “operational audit” ofthe Jackson County Develop-ment Council (JCDC).

The issue and motion werebrought during the board’straditional roundtable dis-cussion of matters not takenup on the prepared agenda.

Commissioner Jim Peacockmade the motion. He had ear-lier this year offered a success-ful motion seeking a compre-hensive financial report fromJCDC. At that time, he had ini-tially suggested that the countyfile court action seeking such

a report, but fellow commis-sioners said at that time theyfelt court action would be pre-mature, and Peacock offeredan amended proposal, whichpassed, to first ask JCDC for the

My wife and I havedecided to sellour house and

opt into a smaller placewith less upkeep.

That is what happenswhen you start gettingolder by the way. Youdon’t have the energyor the muscle strengthto keep a large placeup.

In our case, it meansgetting rid of some“stuff,” which soundseasy, however in reality itis the most difficult partof this process.

“That means a lot tome,” both of us have saidcountless times as wehave sifted through stufftrying to decide what tokeep and what to sell orgive away.

It is not easy to let go ofthings like the gear shifthandle to the first car Idrove that broke off fromshifting it hard. It hassentimental value, youknow.

“I can’t part with that8-track tape. I bought itat a convenience storein Opp, Alabama on July

the 10th 1969 on my wayto Samson,” I said abouta vintage Elvis Presley“G.I. Blues” tape.

It didn’t matter. I saidthat I had nothing toplay it on; it was just akeepsake.

I put it back on theshelf where it had beensitting for the last fiveyears, under a pileof papers, where itbelonged.

This disposing of oldmemories has been espe-cially hard on me. I haveso much stuff I don’t feelI can let go. My wife hasdone a better job of get-ting rid of things than Ihave done.

We have been goingthrough my collection ofrecord albums over thelast week. It wouldn’t be

so bad except I have wellover a thousand of them.

It is a pretty goodcollection by the wayranging from Big Band,old country and west-ern, early rock and roll,rhythm and blues andNew Orleans jazz.

So I went through themand made a stack ofrecords I was willing topart with. My wife camein the room and sawwhat I had done.

“I can’t believe you arewilling to part with allthose records,” she saidlooking at the large stackof records in the floor Ihad made.

“You don’t understand;these are the ones I planto keep,” I said, then Ipointed to the stack offive records I was willingto get rid of.

Needless to say, itdidn’t go well for meafter that incident.

You see I have memo-ries of where I firstlistened to those recordsor where I bought themand even who listened tothem with me.

I know I am going tohave to part with more ofthem than just those five;I just want to put it off aslong as I can.

A few days ago, I rodeby a house in our neigh-borhood and saw thefamily putting stuff outof a house where themother was put in anursing home.

There was a lifetime of“stuff,” on the car portand breezeway, piled upto the ceiling with barelyenough room to walkthrough.

It was all headed to athrift store.

So getting rid of someof our stuff now mightnot be as bad an idea as Ioriginally thought.

We are heading toward thebeginning of another year.Many of us will be trying

to make changes to improve ourlives when the New Year comes in.It’s always good to make changes inour lives, but some of us don’t needto wait to make plans for the futurewhen we can make them now.

The fact is that many of us havemade promises to ourselves andothers over and over for years, butthose changes never occur. Whenwe continuously make these prom-ises, we become members of theclass called “procrastinators.”

The word procrastination means“to be slow or late about doingsomething that should be done.”When an individual is sincere aboutchanging their way of life in oneway or another, they don’t hesitateto start making changes as soon aspossible.

Why do some people put them-selves in a position they don’treally have be in by making “emptypromises” to themselves andothers? Since there are no perfectpeople, all of us can find ways to

improve our lives. In many cases,making changes won’t be easy.

One of the promises that cometo mind right before the begin-ning of a new year is losing weightor getting in shape by exercisingmore; and there’s a good, legiti-mate reason for that. Two of thosereasons are the Thanksgiving andChristmas holidays.

During this time of year manyof us look forward to letting ourguards down and enjoying our-selves. Of course, one of the mostenjoyable things during the holidayseason is food filled with a lot ofcalories. Even some of the mostconscientious people feel no guiltwhen they dine sufficiently duringthe holiday season.

After the enjoyable holidays, get-ting back in shape by exercising orlosing weight can be a tough thingto do. Maybe, if we consider stay-ing in good shape throughout theyear, it will be a smooth transitiongetting back to our regular routineafter the holidays. That way we canstop making “empty promises” thatare tough to keep. In other words,prepare for the holidays we love toenjoy ahead of time.

We need to prepare ourselvesfinancially, so it won’t be stressful,and prepare ourselves physically,so we can relax and enjoy thosedelicious meals without havingto make those end-of-the-yearpromises.

The holiday season should be arelaxing time of celebration and joy!

ANNIVERSARIES

“It’s no relation to the meaning oflife…

It’s a dang fool husband doesn’tspring for his wife.”

“Spending Money” as performed byJimmy Buffett

Let’s take a look back and a lookforward at our economy in this,our last column of the year.

Casual observers notice holidayshoppers spending and hear cashregisters ringing and many assumethat this is a sign of a healthy econ-omy. The day after Thanksgiving,Americans spent an approximate$7.4 billion online, or almost 20%more than last year. Cyber Mondaysaw even greater online spending, at$9.4 billion.

So retail holiday spending lookshealthy and consumer confidence iscurrently high. Also, the unemploy-ment rate, at 3.5%, is the lowest in50 years.

Now, let’s consider some soberingfacts. In two of the last three reces-sions, the Bloomberg ConsumerComfort Index was close to its peakin the month the recession began.Consumer willingness to spend is,alas, not a leading, but a lagging in-dicator of economic health. As KarlSmith writes in Bloomberg, “Busi-ness cycles are driven by investmentin housing and business. By the timeconsumer spending begins to weak-

en, it is too late.” Truth is, growthin consumer spending reached itszenith about 18 months ago and hasbeen in a gradual decline since.

No Goldilocks economy lastsforever. And no bull market runs toinfinity. Recession will return, it’sjust a matter of when. Not a cheeryholiday thought, but we all haveshort financial memories. They callthem business cycles for a reason.

Now here’s some relatively goodnews. Our next slowdown and evenour next recession may be less se-vere than in the past. Why? Becausethe economy isn’t growing as fast asit used to.

That sounds counterintuitive, buthere’s what we mean. When theeconomy is growing at 5%, and thenactually shrinks for two quarters(the definition of recession), it’s avery noticeable pullback which hasimplications for consumer spendingand investment. But when the econ-omy is growing at a much slower 2%(which is the Atlanta Fed’s current

“GDPNow” reading), then shrinksfor two quarters, it’s not nearly asnoticeable or damaging to con-sumer confidence. The differencebetween growth and decline is a lotsmaller.

The “old school” manufacturing-led recessions may be less relevantin a world where services comprisea larger, more stable component ofthe economy. The “perfect storm”of events leading into 2008 (a 5.1%peak-to-trough decline in GDP, thebiggest drop since the recession of1945) notwithstanding, our nextdecline may be less severe than pastrecessions. Will folks cancel Spotifyor Disney+ subscriptions just be-cause the economy is pulling back abit? If they’ve lost their job, perhaps,but probably not otherwise.

Japan has been in and out of reces-sion for decades, but most peopleliving there don’t seem to notice.Their growth is so persistently lowthat most people don’t adjust theirlifestyles or spending levels muchduring economic pullbacks.

BY LEANA S. WEN

The Trump administrationannounced last week a newprogram that will provide

HIV prevention medications free ofcharge for uninsured patients. Thesepre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP)drugs are highly effective in prevent-ing HIV, but with a cost of $2,000 amonth, they are far too expensive forpeople without insurance. This newprogram will provide PrEP at no costfor up to 200,000 uninsured patientsa year.

Supporters have lauded this moveas a major step toward PresidentDonald Trump’s plan to end HIVin the United States. Others havecriticized it as not going nearly farenough: They would rather thegovernment expedite generic drugproduction and lower the cost ofPrEP.

Both are missing an importantpoint: Free or reduced-cost drugswill have no impact if patients can’taccess them in the first place.

The rural South is a growingepicenter for HIV, but while theregion accounts for more than halfof all new HIV diagnoses, it hasonly a quarter of all PrEP-providingclinics. In West Virginia, only 27% ofthe state’s rural counties offer anyHIV prevention services. In NorthCarolina, only two of the state’s 85local health departments reportedto researchers last year that theyprescribed PrEP. In Mississippi,patients have had to drive three ormore hours to access the one healthcenter that dispenses 80% of all PrEPpills in the state.

And that’s if the patient knows toask for PrEP in the first place. Onlyhalf of all uninsured patients have

a regular source of medical care.Patients who are at high risk ofcontracting HIV are even less likelyto do so since they often belong tomarginalized communities that havedeep distrust of the medical system.A Centers for Disease Control andPrevention report found that whileAfrican Americans account for 44%of individuals who would qualifyfor PrEP, they account for only 11%of those on PrEP. African Americanmen who have sex with men havea 1-in-2 lifetime risk of contractingHIV, yet only 26% are on PrEP (com-pared with 42% of their white peers).Without concerted outreach effortsto these vulnerable communities,the promise of free drugs will nottranslate to patients actually takingthem.

Furthermore, the administration’snew program covers only medica-tions themselves. The medical ap-pointment to obtain the prescriptionisn’t covered, nor are lab tests or on-going care. CDC guidelines requirethat patients undergo multiple bloodtests before starting PrEP and thenregular testing every three monthswhile on it. For the uninsured, thesetests cost thousands of dollars a yearand will effectively price patients outof PrEP care.

Access to these public insuranceprograms is particularly importantfor prevention. The federal RyanWhite program, which funds citiesand states to care for low-incomepeople with HIV, supports onlythose already diagnosed with HIV.It does not support those who couldbe prevented from getting HIV anddoes not cover PrEP. ExpandingMedicaid to those at high risk forHIV would allow them to receivePrEP and coverage for the other

services they need.Patients also need more places to

access HIV prevention and treat-ment. A key access point is clinicsfunded by the Title X family planningprogram. Of the approximately 4,000Title X clinics across the country,90% provide HIV testing and a thirdoffer PrEP. These clinics serve low-income patients in rural and under-served areas, but now are threatenedwith closure because of new Title Xrestrictions.

If the administration really wantsto achieve its goal of eradicatingHIV, it needs to stop harmful poli-cies such as the Title X gag rule. Andinstead of dismantling the Afford-able Care Act, it should supportstate-based Medicaid expansion. Itneeds to remove discriminatory poli-cies such as the conscience rule andthe public charge rule that furtherstigmatize LGBTQ, minority andimmigrant populations that alreadyface the greatest barriers to care.

The free medication programdistracts from the real challengesof HIV prevention and treatment.Pills are no panacea when patientscan’t access them in the first place,and then can’t afford the rest of themedical care that comes along withtreatment. The administration hasthe power to fulfill its promise to endthe HIV/AIDS epidemic, but it mustbegin with an honest examinationof its existing policies. Otherwise, itwill keep making tiny steps forwardagainst a backdrop of giant stepsbackward.

OpinionAnother View

Ioften hear retired people say,“I’ve never been busier. I don’tknow where all the time goes.”

Well, I know where it goes: It goesto the doctor’s office.

I’m in good health, and check-ups and tests still take up a goodpart of my week. It’s cutting intomy golf time and naptime. Myfriend Charlie went to a doctor lastweek to look at an old, persistentankle injury. When the doctor wasfinished, Charlie also mentionedthat his knee was acting up. Oh,no, that needs a different appoint-ment, with a different doctor, in adifferent part of town. Charlie saidit was like having your eye doctorsay, “Hey, I don’t do both eyes, justone. You want the other eye, makeanother appointment.”

Something tells me I’m going tohear from foot doctors about this,but that’s OK. I can dish it out andI can take it. My medical knowl-edge ends with, “Your ankle boneconnected to your leg bone, yourleg bone connected to your kneebone” from a song I haven’t heardin 50 years. Modern medicine hasprobably changed since then, buta doctor is a doctor — they shouldall know something about a knee,even if it’s not their specialty.

All the doctors’ offices tell youto show up 20 minutes early for

your appointment so that you’llhave plenty of time to fill out the

same forms youfilled out the lasttime you were there.Yes, it’s importantto know if my medshave changed sincethe last visit. Butwhy they want yetanother record of mySocial Security num-ber, and to make yetanother copy of my

driver’s license, is not so clear.If Google or Facebook asked

for that information, there’d be arebellion, but if your doctor asks forit, sure. What’s the worst that couldhappen?

What’s that? You say my bankaccount has been looted by anidentity thief? How? They’d have toknow my Social Security number,my birthday and my address to dothat. Where could they ever get allthat information? I don’t even givemy ZIP code to stores that still askfor it. Thank goodness my doctorkeeps my files, along with hundredsof others, in paper file folders rightbehind the receptionist’s desk, nextto a business-sized copy machinewhere they’d be hard for anyone toget to. Except, oh, the nightly clean-ing crew, that creep the receptionist

And it’s not just my primarydoc who has my files: so does myoptometrist, my cardiologist, mydentist, the imaging lab and everyhealth care provider I’ve ever seen.They are doing for my privacy pret-ty much what a hospital gown doesfor my backside. Yet it seems theonly person who can’t see my verypersonal and private files is me.

I’m still waiting for the results oftests I took weeks ago. Mum’s theword. There’s a website where I cansee the results if I jump through 50hoops, but when I finally log in andget to the correct page, there areno results listed. Another doctorhas the same setup, but it’s on adifferent site, which means a differ-ent login and a different set of fivesecurity questions. Who was mybest friend in first grade? What wasmy mother’s maiden name?

Why on Earth would I answerthese questions? How many timeshas my identity been stolen byEastern European hackers who justlove to get their hands on this kindof stuff? This is not protecting myprivacy; it’s invading it. There hasto be a better way.

Measles outbreak in Samoa must be a lesson forthe rest of the world

The tragedy now unfolding in the Pacificisland state of Samoa is a case study of how wrong-headed information about vaccines can lead to injuryand death. Samoa’s population of about 195,000 istiny, but it has suffered a major outbreak of measlesthat has led to 68 deaths, most of them children. Itcould and should have been prevented, and must betaken as a lesson for the rest of the world.

The Samoa outbreak can be traced back to July 2018,when 2-year-old children were given what was sup-posed to be the MMR vaccine that protects againstmeasles, mumps and rubella. Both infants died. Laterit was determined that two nurses had improperlyprepared the inoculations by mixing in a lethal doseof muscle relaxant; one of the nurses tried to cover upthe error. That nurse was charged with manslaughterand obstruction of justice and sentenced to 5½ yearsin prison in August; the second nurse was chargedwith manslaughter and received a five-year prisonsentence.

The deaths shook confidence in the health-caresystem. The World Health Organization estimatedthat in 2018, only 31% of infants in Samoa received themeasles vaccine, a drop from 60% to 70% in previ-ous years. Measles is a highly contagious virus that isspread when an infected person coughs or sneezes,and it can remain in the air for up to two hours after-ward. The disease can lead to serious complicationsand death, especially among children. The effectiveway to stop transmission is to immunize 93% to 95% ofthe population.

The low immunization rate in Samoa left unvac-cinated children extremely vulnerable once measlesbegan spreading in recent weeks. The government isnow carrying out an emergency vaccination program.

FORT LAUDERDALE — The family ofa man who was killed in a crash involv-ing an uninsured forklift driver has fileda $25 million negligence lawsuit thatclaims that even the most basic of back-ground checks could have spared hislife.

James Zakos, 70, died Nov. 17 whenthe forklift driven by Ulises Mondragon,30. pulled too far into a Fort LauderdaleBeach intersection, ripping int the Mer-cedes-Benz convertible Zakos was driv-ing.

The lawsuit filed by attorney BlakeDolman, names the contractor andthree subcontractors involved in animprovement project, along withMondragon.

“This was not just an accident, this wasgrossly and egregiously negligent,” Dol-man told the South Florida SunSentinel.

The forklift driver told police he did nothave a driver’s license, nor a permit tooperate heavy machinery.

Court records show Mondragon hadbeen fined three times since 2011 fordriving without a license in Palm BeachCounty.

Mondragon is from El Salvador anddoesn’t have documentation to be in theUnited States, the newspaper reported.Authorities have placed an immigrationhold on him while he’s jailed on chargesthat include failure to get a driver’s li-cense and a felony count of leaving thescene of a fatal crash.

Court records don’t list a lawyer forMondragon.

DADE CITY — A Florida police depart-ment is giving back this holiday season bypaying off all the layaways at a Walmartstore allowing 26 customers to finallypick up their purchases.

came from anonymous donors and theDade City Police Foundation. The buy-ers were surprised when they receivedthe good news on a phone call from thepolice chief.

“Each call made a lasting memory, notonly for the recipients, but the givers, aswell,” Walters said in the statement.

ORLANDO — For morethan nine months now, agroup of volunteer UCFmedical students have beengiving free hepatitis A shotsto the homeless in Orlando.

Once a month, on a Tues-day evening, they set uptheir portable tent and afew tables at the corner of achurch parking lot in down-town Orlando and triagetheir patients.

They vaccinate as manyas 25 people during the90-minute clinic.

“It’s a two-shot series, andwe’re far enough along theprocess that we’re actuallygetting people coming backfor their second shot,” saidAdams, a second-year UCFmedical student. “Our clinicalone has vaccinated about10% of the of the home-less population” in OrangeCounty, he estimated.

The UCF students’ ef-forts comes at a time whenFlorida and dozens of otherstates are experiencing anunprecedented outbreak ofhepatitis A, a viral liver dis-ease that is transmitted viathe fecal-oral route. It canbe passed on via food, if thefood workers have hepati-

tis A and don’t wash theirhands, or through personalcontact such as having sexor sharing drug parapher-nalia.

Florida has reported morethan 3,100 cases of hepatitisA this year. That’s comparedwith about 550 cases lastyear and 280 cases in 2017.

Orange County has had186 cases of hepatitis Athis year, compared with93 cases last year and 10 in2017.

Many of the infectedindividuals are drug us-ers — both injection ornon-injection drugs — orhave recently experiencedhomelessness. About 5%have been men who havesex with men, according tothe Florida Department ofHealth.

By vaccinating “we’re alsoprotecting the general pub-lic. So it’s a benefit not onlyto our patients but also thecommunity,” said Adams,34, who worked in publichealth before going to medi-cal school.

Getting a hepatitis A shotis the best way to prevent thedisease. While people withhealth insurance and ac-cess to regular medical caremight have had their hepa-

titis A shots, vulnerablepopulations are less likelyto be protected against thevirus.

Since the start of the out-break last year, the statehealth department haslaunched a large vaccina-tion campaign, reachingout to the homeless popu-lation and holding one-dayvaccination events to en-courage local residents toget vaccinated.

There’s no treatment forthe disease and it has torun its course. People withchronic liver disease andolder adults with seriousmedical conditions are atthe highest risk of develop-ing complications from thedisease.

In Florida, about 70% ofthe infected individualshave been hospitalized and51 have died.

Spencer and other UCFmedical students decidedto give out hepatitis A shotswith the help of the healthdepartment only threemonths after they had start-ed the Chapman Compas-sionate Care for the Home-less clinic, providing skinand wound care for down-town Orlando’s homelesspopulation.

JACKSON COUNTY FLORIDAN � jcfloridan.com SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 2019 � 7ANATION / STATE


SAVANNAH, Ga. — Afederal judge is recom-mending that Georgiaprevail in a longstandinglegal battle with Floridaover water consumptionfrom rivers shared by thestates, though the final de-cision rests with the U.S.Supreme Court.

The neighboring South-ern states have been fight-ing since the 1990s overGeorgia’s use of waterfrom the Chattahoocheeand Flint rivers that servebooming metro Atlantaand southern Georgia’sabundant farms beforeflowing to the Apalachic-ola River that’s crucial toFlorida’s oyster fisheries.

Florida wants the courtsto limit how much water

Georgia uses, saying Flor-ida residents have beenharmed by reduced flowsdownstream from Apala-chicola River into Apala-chicola Bay and the near-by Gulf of Mexico. Amongother problems, Floridablames Georgia for thedrastic decline of its oncelucrative oyster fishery.

The Supreme Court lastyear appointed U.S. Cir-cuit Judge Paul Kelly Jr.of New Mexico to reviewthe case. Kelly issued hisfindings in a 96-page rul-ing Wednesday that rec-ommends the high courtreject Florida’s request toimpose limits on Georgia’swater usage through 2050.

“The evidence has notshown harm to Floridacaused by Georgia,” Kel-ly wrote. “The evidence

has shown that Georgia’swater use is reasonable;and the evidence has notshown that the benefitsof apportionment wouldsubstantially outweigh thepotential harms.”

Georgia Gov. BrianKemp applauded thejudge’s findings Thursday,saying in a statement thatKelly recognized “Geor-gia’s strong, evidence-based case.”

“We will continue to begood stewards of waterresources in every cornerof our state, and we hopethat this issue will reacha final conclusion soon,”Kemp said.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSan-tis’ office said he was re-viewing the decision.

Noah Valenstein, secre-tary of Florida’s Depart-

ment of EnvironmentalProtection, said his agencywas “extremely disap-pointed” in the judge’srecommendation.

“The state of Florida re-mains committed to re-storing the historic flowsof the Apalachicola Riverand the families who relyon this river for their liveli-hood,” Valenstein said in astatement.

Florida and Georgia havebeen fighting over waterusage for decades alongwith Alabama, which isn’tpart of the current lawsuit.The river basin at the heartof the dispute flows fromnorth of metro Atlanta tothe Gulf of Mexico.

The U.S. Supreme Courtappointed Kelly as a spe-cial master to review Flor-ida’s argument that Geor-

gia should be required tomore water flow down-stream from the Flint andChattahoochee rivers. Therivers flow into the Apala-chicola River, which emp-ties into Apalachicola Bay.

The bay is famous forits oysters. But Floridacontends diverting waterfrom the rivers to supply4 million people in metroAtlanta and farms in southGeorgia increases the sa-linity in the bay, whichharms the oysters.

Apalachicola has his-torically produced 90% ofFlorida’s oysters and 10%of the nation’s. But the in-dustry has suffered in re-cent years. The state’s ag-riculture agency found the2012 oyster harvest to bethe lowest in two decades.The federal government

declared a fishery disasterin 2013 and later awardedthe Apalachicola Bay area$6.3 million in disaster re-lief.

The judge found thatFlorida attorneys failed toprove the harm to the oys-ter fishery was Georgia’sfault. He also wrote thatFlorida “has not providedany evidence of harm dur-ing years with normal ormore than normal rain-fall.”

Kelly is the second judgethe Supreme Court has as-signed to review the Geor-gia-Florida water case. Thefirst special master alsosided with Georgia in hisrecommendation, but theSupreme Court decided5-4 last year to send thecase back for further re-view.

Judge recommends Georgia prevail in water war with Florida

tHE Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Dem-ocrats propelled PresidentDonald Trump’s impeach-ment toward a historicvote by the full U.S. Houseas the Judiciary Commit-tee on Friday approvedcharges of abuse of powerand obstruction of Con-gress. It’s the latest majorstep in the constitutionaland political storm thathas divided Congress andthe nation.

The House is expected toapprove the two articles ofimpeachment next week,before lawmakers departfor the holidays.

The partisan split inthe committee vote — 23Democrats to 17 Repub-licans — reflects the at-mosphere in Congress.The Democratic-majorityHouse is expected to ap-prove the charges againstTrump next week, but theRepublican-controlledSenate is likely to acquithim after a January trial.

Trump is accused, in thefirst article, of abusing hispresidential power by ask-ing Ukraine to investigatehis 2020 rival Joe Bidenwhile holding military aidas leverage, and, in thesecond, of obstructingCongress by blocking theHouse’s efforts to probehis actions.

“Today is a solemn andsad day,” Chairman Jer-rold Nadler, D-N.Y., toldreporters after the session,marking the third time inU.S. history the panel hadvoted to recommend im-peaching a president. Hesaid the full House wouldact ‘’expeditiously.”’

At the White House af-ter the votes, Trump de-nounced the inquiry andactions against him, usingthe terms he’s relied on formonths. He referred to theimpeachment effort fourtimes as a hoax, twice asa sham and once each asa scam, a witch hunt anda disgrace. He describedhis actions as perfect threetimes and said four timeshe did nothing wrong.

When he had askedUkraine to “do us a favor”in the July phone call thatsparked the impeachmentinquiry, he said, the “us”referred to the U.S., not apolitical favor for himself.

Trump noted that hewatched “quite a bit” ofthe previous day’s pro-ceedings and determinedDemocrats were makingfools of themselves. He de-rided the government of-ficials who testified that hepressured Ukraine and heclaimed he was benefitingpolitically from impeach-ment.

Voting was swift and sol-emn, with none of the fi-

ery speeches and weightynods to history that de-fined the previous twodays of debate, including14 hours that stretchednearly to midnight Thurs-day. Nadler abruptly halt-ed that rancorous sessionso voting could be held indaylight, for all Americansto see.

Nadler, who had saidhe wanted lawmakers to“search their consciences”before casting their votes,gaveled in the landmarkbut brief morning sessionat the Capitol.

Lawmakers responded“aye” or “yes” for the Dem-ocrats, and simple:”no’s”from the Republicans.

“The article is agreed to,”Nadler declared after eachvote.

The top Republican onthe panel Rep. Doug Col-lins of Georgia immedi-ately said he would file dis-senting views.

Minutes after the morn-ing session opened, it wasgaveled shut.

Trump is only the fourthU.S. president to face im-peachment proceedingsand the first to be runningfor reelection at the sametime. The outcome of theeventual House votes posepotentially serious politi-cal consequences for bothparties ahead of the 2020elections, with Ameri-cans deeply divided overwhether the president in-

deed conducted impeach-able acts and if it shouldbe up to Congress, or thevoters, to decide whetherhe should remain in office.

Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz., defended the presi-dent against what she called“unfair, rigged’’ proceed-ings. “They had no proof, noevidence, no crime, but theywent ahead anyway andthey’re tearing the countryapart,” she said.

Democrats countered theyhad no choice but to protectthe 2020 election from fur-ther Trump outreach for for-eign interference.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., who held up a copyof the Constitution as shevoted, called impeach-ment “a very necessarything to save our democ-racy.”

The president has re-fused to participate in theproceedings and instruct-ed officials not to as well,tweeting criticisms fromthe sidelines and mockingthe charges against him inthe House’s nine-page res-olution as “impeachmentlight.” But House SpeakerPelosi said the presidentwas wrong and the caseagainst him is deeplygrounded.

Democrats contend thatTrump has engaged in apattern of misconduct to-ward Russia dating backto the 2016 election cam-paign that special counsel

Robert Mueller investigat-ed. And they say his deal-ings with Ukraine havebenefited its aggressiveneighbor Russia, not theU.S., and he must be pre-vented from “corrupting”U.S. elections again andcheating his way to a sec-ond term next year.

“It is urgent,” Pelosi said.With impeachment al-

most certain in the House,even with a smattering ofdefections from Demo-crats, particularly thefreshman lawmakers seek-ing re-election in districtswhere Trump remainspopular, the pressure willbe on Republicans in theSenate to hold the line insupport of the president.

Senate Majority LeaderMitch McConnell said lateThursday on Fox News,“There is zero chance thepresident will be removedfrom office.” He said theDemocrats have a “weakcase” and he hopes to haveno GOP defections in theSenate .

Republican senatorshave been advocating fora swift trial next year. ButTrump is eager for a show-down in the Senate thatwill not only acquit him ofthe charges, but providevindication while inflict-ing political pain on Dem-ocrats.

“I’ll do whatever I want,”Trump told reporters. Thepresident has indicated he

wants a parade of witness-es at the Senate, includingthe still-anonymous gov-ernment whistleblowerwho first alerted Congressto the Ukraine call. Hetweeted favorably aboutthe GOP “warriors” onthe House committee. “Iwouldn’t mind a long pro-cess,” Trump said.

McConnell said he’ll takecues from the president’slawyers, even as he stress-es the risks of a drawn-outtrial for Trump and theparty, with a narrow 53-47 GOP Senate majority.It will take just 51 votes inthe Senate to accept or re-ject witnesses, or take oth-er actions, and McConnellcould easily lose control.

“You could certainlymake the case for makingit shorter rather than lon-ger,” he said.

The Judiciary Com-mittee session drew outover two days, much oftime spent in fights overamendments, a long andbitter slog through failedRepublican amendmentsaimed at killing the im-peachment charges.

Rep. David Cicilline,D-R.I., argued there was“overwhelming evidence”that the president withhis lawyer Rudy Giuliani,in pushing Ukraine to in-vestigate rival Biden, wasengaged in an abuse ofpower “to corrupt Ameri-can elections.

Bringing even more at-tention to the situation,Giuliani showed up at theWhite House on Friday.Just back from Ukraine,he was expected to briefTrump on his search forinformation on Biden thatTrump discussed in theJuly call. Many GOP law-makers are trying to ignoreGiuliani, blaming him forTrump’s predicament.

After lawmakers trudgedthrough two days of hear-ings, tempers still flaredFriday.

“My vote is no,” said Rep.Louie Gohmert, R-Texas.Then, before the tally wasannounced, he inquiredhow his vote was record-ed by the clerk. “I want tomake sure.”

Much of time late in thenight Thursday was spentin fights over amend-ments. Typical was thefirst amendment, offeredby GOP Rep. Jim Jordanof Ohio, who tried to de-lete the first charge againstTrump. “This amendmentstrikes article one becausearticle one ignores thetruth,” he declared.

It was defeated, 23-17, ona party line vote, as were allthe others that followed.

Debate dragged onwith familiar arguments:Democrats cited evidencethey said showed Trump’smisconduct, while Repub-licans insisted the entireinvestigation was bogus.

BY MARIA CHENGAP Medical Writer

BARCELONA, SPAIN —When Clara Massons wasin labor with her son, amidwife climbed onto herbed and pushed down onMassons’ belly, explain-ing that she was helpingto deliver her baby. Forthe next few hours, themidwife and a doctor tookturns pressing down dur-ing contractions, usingan old, now controversialtechnique for troubled de-liveries.

Massons said her pleasto stop were ignored at theBarcelona hospital whereshe delivered two yearsago, and she later com-plained to authorities. Thehospital said doctors took“appropriate measures”during her delivery.

“I thought I was goingto die,” she said. “For onemonth after, my belly wasblue and purple.”

The technique is knownas the Kristeller maneuverand was first described inan 1867 German textbook.It is sometimes used dur-ing the second stage of la-bor to assist delivery andavoid a cesarean sectionwhen complications arise.But many doctors in de-veloped countries say theyhave stopped using it be-cause of the potential forbroken bones, organ dam-age, and other complica-tions. The World HealthOrganization does not rec-ommend the technique.

Yet the procedure is stillcommonly performed inmany European countries,highlighting how once-ac-cepted practices can per-sist even long after they’reconsidered to be unneces-sary or even dangerous.

Europe has some of theworld’s lowest maternaland infant death rates, andassertions of mistreatmentduring childbirth are morecommon in Africa, Asiaand Latin America. But theKristeller maneuver andsome other medical prac-tices related to childbirthhave come under increas-ing scrutiny in Europe, in-cluding complaints aboutinadequate anesthesia,surgical incisions during

vaginal births and failureto seek patient consent forcertain procedures.

“Depending on the act,these practices rise to thelevel of a human rights vi-olation,” said Mindy Rose-man, director of a globalj u s t i c e - a n d - w o m e n ’ srights program at Yale LawSchool. “Not obtainingconsent from women formedical procedures, notproviding pain relief or do-ing something that’s notscientifically justified, thatis simply not the standardof care, and it’s troublingwherever that occurs.”

Last year, Croatian law-maker Ivana NincevicLesandric drew attentionto the anesthesia issuewhen she complained toParliament that she didnot receive any for anemergency procedure af-ter a miscarriage.

“I don’t think I’ve everbeen in (a) much morepainful situation in mylife,” Lesandric said.

In response, the Speakerof the House chastisedLesandric for speakingover her allotted time andfor publicly sharing suchintimate details, sayingit put him in an awkwardposition.

The Ministry of Health,while not directly com-menting on her case, saiddoctors typically use a lo-cal anesthetic for suchprocedures. Officials sug-gested there may havebeen a “misunderstand-ing” on Lesandric’s partregarding the type of anes-thesia she received.

Dr. Frederick Mercier,chair of obstetrics for theEuropean Society of An-esthesiology, said generalanesthesia is “most oftenused” in procedures likethe one Lesandric had. Hesaid local anesthesia isn’tused because “it is less ef-fective.”

In the days after herspeech to Parliament, achildbirth advocacy groupasked for and receivedhundreds of complaintsabout medical care fromCroatian women. ThreeU.N. human rights experts,including two from Croa-tia, later said the respons-es “showed a pattern ofabuse and violence againstwomen undertaking medi-cal procedures.”

“I see it as another#MeToo campaign wherecertain issues were not be-ing seen as human rightsviolations and were being

tolerated,” said Ivana Ra-dacic, a Croatian who sitson a panel for the U.N.’sHuman Rights Council.

In submissions for aU.N. report presented inOctober, several Europeancountries or government-appointed experts ac-knowledged lapses in howinformed consent fromwomen during childbirthwas obtained. The CzechRepublic wrote that wom-en were sometimes givendocuments to sign “with-out any explanation or in-formation on the nature orreason for the procedure.”

Dr. Ozge Tuncalp, a ma-ternal-and-reproductivehealth care expert at WHO,said the U.N. health agen-cy has noted increasingreports of mistreatmentby women seeking healthcare in Europe.

“Some of these thingshave become commonpractice and people thinkthis is what they’re sup-posed to do, so it is verydifficult to undo,” she said.

The WHO says a oncecommon procedure — asurgical incision to enlargethe vagina during child-birth and prevent tears —should not be used in morethan about 10% of women

and that consent shouldbe mandatory. Yet govern-ment figures show ratesrange from 30% to morethan 90% in countries in-cluding the Netherlands,Portugal, Spain and Roma-nia. In France, a 2018 gov-ernment report estimatedthat half of women whohad the incision weren’ttold beforehand. In Italy,one survey estimated 61%of women did not consent.

Marta Busquets, a Span-ish lawyer, said she askedthe two midwives han-dling her delivery not tomake the incision, but thatthey cut her anyway.

“I felt really humiliated,but it’s my word againsttheirs,” she said. The hos-pital would not commenton her case, but said theprocedure should not beperformed routinely andthat it obtains verbal con-sent when it is performed.

In October, the Councilof Europe passed a reso-lution on “obstetrical andgynecological violence.”Among other recommen-dations, it called on Euro-pean member countriesto implement laws oninformed consent and tocreate specific reportingand complaint mecha-nisms, including sanctionsfor mistreatment.

How often the Kristellermaneuver is used isn’tclear since it often isn’tincluded in medical re-cords. Doctors, nurses andmidwives in countries in-cluding Bulgaria, Croatia,Hungary, Italy, Portugal,Romania and Spain toldThe Associated Press theysee it used on a weekly, ifnot daily, basis.

A French government re-port last year estimated itwas used in about 22% ofbirths. In Italy, research-ers concluded in a 2018study that the Kristellertechnique was document-ed in medical records onlyin about 10% of cases.

“The evidence says it’snot helpful, it’s actuallyharmful,” said the WHO’sTuncalp. “The fact that somany women are gettingan intervention that bothnational and internation-al guidance recommend

against is very worrying.”The technique is prohib-

ited in the U.K., accordingto Dr. Patrick O’Brien, ofBritain’s Royal College ofObstetricians & Gynaecol-ogists. In the United States,the American College ofObstetricians and Gyne-cologists said they had noguidelines on the Kristellermaneuver because it is notrecommended.

“I can’t think of any rea-son you would resort tothis,” said O’Brien.

Dr. Ligita Jokubkiene ofSweden said she thinksit is still used becausemany doctors and mid-wives aren’t aware of thedangers. She learned it inmedical school but no lon-ger performs it herself.

“If the woman was hav-ing bad contractions or ifwe wanted the delivery togo a bit quicker, it was eas-ier to press on the womanand try to get the baby outfast,” she said.

Spain’s Ministry ofHealth instructed healthprofessionals to stop us-ing it in its 2007 guide-lines. But in a 2016 evalu-ation, government officialsfound it was still beingdone on about one quarterof women having vaginalbirths.

Massons and her hus-band, Toni, remain trou-bled by the birth of theirson Jaume, now 2. Mas-sons was told the tech-nique was needed becauseher labor had slowed, andbecause the baby was in aworrying position.

In a letter to Massonsthat she shared with theAP, Dr. Miquel Gomez,medical director of theprivate Barcelona hospitalwhere Massons gave birth,wrote that doctors took“appropriate measures.”

The ombudsman for theCatalonia region noted theKristeller technique was“discouraged” but not le-gally banned.

WHO’s Tuncalp said thattransforming medical care— and not just guidelines— is very difficult.

“It can take genera-tions of doctors to actuallychange practices in the la-bor ward,” she said.

For the first time since the early1900s, more Americans are dyingat home rather than in hospitals,a trend that reflects more hospicecare and progress toward the kindof end that most people say theywant.

Deaths in nursing homes also havedeclined, according to Wednesday’sreport in the New England Journalof Medicine.

“It’s a good thing. Death has be-come overly medicalized over thelast century” and this shows a turnaway from that, said the lead au-thor, Dr. Haider Warraich of theVeterans Affairs Boston HealthcareSystem.

Betsy McNair, a tour guide whonow lives in Mexico, is proud of theending she helped give her father.Robert McNair was 83 when he diedat home in Belle Haven, Virginia,in 2009, six weeks after learning hehad lung cancer.

“I made him exactly what hewanted to eat, whenever he wantedit. He had a scotch every night, hehad a very high quality of life. If hewoke up at 2 o’clock in the morningand wanted to have coffee and pie,that’s what we did,” she said.

Warraich and Duke Universitygraduate student Sarah Cross usedgovernment health statistics ondeaths from natural causes, ratherthan accidents or homicides, from2003 through 2017. The portion thatoccurred in hospitals fell from 40%to 30% over that period and in nurs-

ing homes from 24% to 21%.Deaths in homes rose, from 24%

to 31%. Some assisted-living centersmay have been counted as homes;researchers had no way to tell.

People who were younger, femaleor a racial or ethnic minority wereless likely to die at home than thosewho were older, male or white. Can-cer patients were more likely to dieat home; people with dementia, ina nursing home; and people withlung diseases, in a hospital.

The type of illness matters, Mc-Nair said. Besides her father, shehelped care for a brother who diedof Lou Gehrig’s disease in his 50s,

and her mother, who died at age 92in a nursing home after a long de-cline in health.

“They were all completely differ-ent experiences,” and sometimesit’s not possible to adequately carefor a family member at home, Mc-Nair said.

Allison Beach and her husbandstruggled to figure out how to gethelp for her mother, KathryneBeach, who lived with them forthree years before dying at theirhome in Hinesburg, Vermont, in2016. She had lost her vision, hadsuffered a fall and then succumbedto heart failure at age 91.

ALBANY, N.Y. — NewYork’s ban on flavorede-cigarettes is still heldup in court, but a statecouncil voted Thursdayto keep it alive in casethe judge rules in thestate’s favor.

The state’s Pub-lic Health and HealthPlanning Council votedThursday to keep theemergency ban on thebooks for another 90days. The council hadapproved the ban inSeptember, but a stateappeals court blockedthe state in Octoberfrom enforcing it.

The state also plans toseek public commenton banning menthol e-cigarette flavoring.

In October, a state ap-peals court temporarilyblocked New York fromenforcing its prohibi-tion on sales of flavorede-cigarettes after thevaping industry sued toblock the ban. The ruleswere set to expire this

month, but the coun-cil wants to renew theregulations for another90 days.

A spokeswoman forthe Department ofHealth said the voteto keep it alive wouldmake sure New York hasthe emergency regula-tions on the books if thecourts uphold the ban.

“While our scheduledenforcement of this banhas been delayed bypending litigation, weare confident that thecourt will agree that thisis a public health emer-gency demanding im-mediate action to helpensure the well-being ofour children,” spokes-woman Jill Montag said.

New York’s prohibi-tion covering flavorede-cigarettes and othervaping products exceptfor menthol and to-bacco flavors went intoeffect immediately inSeptember.

Retailers initially hadtwo weeks to removemerchandise fromstore shelves.

Court records show the new datewas set Friday for Anthony “BigTony” Moscatiello, 81, and An-thony “Little Tony” Ferrari, 62.They have been serving life prisonsentences for murder convictions

in the shooting death of Konstan-tinos “Gus” Boulis, who foundedthe Miami Subs restaurant chainand owned a fleet of gambling ships.

The 4th District Court of Appeallast year ordered a new trial be-cause testimony was improperlyallowed from a now-deceased wit-ness claiming to have heard the hitman discuss killing Boulis and thatMoscatiello had ordered the slay-ing. The Florida Supreme Court de-clined to consider the state’s appeal,leaving the lower court’s decision inplace.

Boulis, 51, was slain during apower struggle over the lucrativeSunCruz Casinos gambling fleet.Allegedly on orders from Moscati-ello — reputedly a member of NewYork’s Gambino crime family onceheaded by John Gotti — hit manJohn Gurino pulled up next to Bou-lis’s car on a Fort Lauderdale streetand shot him several times.

Gurino later was fatally shot him-self in a 2003 confrontation with aBoca Raton delicatessen owner un-related to the Boulis killing, accord-ing to trial testimony.

Man faces life sentence in bizarre failed kidnapping plotThe Associated Press

HARRISONBURG, Va.— A Florida man is fac-ing a life sentence afterpleading guilty in a failedplot to kidnap five chil-dren from Virginia andkill their parents.

Federal prosecutors inVirginia said Frank Jes-se Amnott, 31, pleadedguilty Wednesday to threecharges in the 2018 plot.One of the charges —conspiracy to kill witness-es — carries a mandatorysentence of life in prison.

In court documents,prosecutors described abizarre plot involving Am-nott and three other peo-ple to kidnap five childrenunder the age of 8. U.S.Attorney Thomas Cullensaid the facts of the case“read like the script of abad horror movie.”

Prosecutors said theplan was thwarted andno one was hurt. DavidArchey, special agent incharge of the FBI’s Rich-mond division, said in anews release that if notfor the quick thinking of

a parent and a quick re-sponse from a sheriff’sdeputy, “this incidentcould have evolved intosomething much worse.”

In court documents,prosecutors said Amnottand his wife, JenniferAmnott, hatched the plotwith another couple —Valerie Perfect Hayes andher boyfriend, Gary BlakeReburn, of Maryland. Thefour allegedly agreed totravel to Dayton, Virginia,to kidnap five childrenfrom two separate homes.

Prosecutors said Hayes

knew the Amnotts couldnot have their own chil-dren and promised thatif they helped her kidnapthe five children, theycould “keep one of theother children as theirown.”

Prosecutors said Hayestold the Amnotts thatthree of her own childrenhad been kidnapped andwere being held by twoMennonite families inDayton. They said noneof the defendants wererelated to any of the chil-dren.

financials.In the discussion Tues-

day, the report that hadbeen submitted wasdescribed by boardChairman Clint Pateas “general” in nature.He also wondered aloudwho JCDC serves now thatthe City of Marianna hastemporarily suspendedits funding of the organi-zation. That action wastaken several weeks ago,with the city having sus-pended funding for JCDCand all but a few outsideorganizations citing finan-cial stresses brought on,in part, by Hurricane Mi-chael.

JCDC was created by leg-islative action many years

ago and was funded withseed money from the stategovernment, with the un-derstanding that it wouldeventually become self-sufficient.

The county, more thana year ago, withdrew itsfunding permanently andcreated its own economicdevelopment committeeto perform the functionthat JCDC had been taskedwith on its behalf to thatpoint.

At Tuesday’s meet-ing, Commissioner Pea-cock said he felt JCDChas “a half-million dol-lars and a lot of it isours.”

Bill Stanton, executivedirector of JCDC, said hehas given the financialshe was asked to provide,saying he’d done so about18 months ago, and againtwo months ago after the

county made that mostrecent request. He main-tains that the county’sfunding was used for thepurpose it was intendedand that the money nowsitting in JCDC’s accountis the result of investmentstrategies that were meantto, among other things,make the organizationself-sufficient as legisla-tors intended when it wascreated.

Stanton said he wonderswhat the county did withthe financial reports hehas already provided, andsaid he was “very disap-pointed” by the board’slatest action, which passedwith Peacock, Pate andCommissioner Eric Hill infavor, and CommissionersWillie Spires and ChuckLockey against the mea-sure.

Stanton has said that he

believes the county hasno basis for a claim on themoney in the JCDC ac-counts, that the county hasnot been a contributor oroverseeing factor in morethan a year. But this week

Stanton said he would de-cline further comment onthe matter, adding that asof Thursday evening hehad not been contacted bythe county as to this latestvote.

Staying safe in an ice or snow stormHere are a few things tokeep in mind:

Stockpile nonperish-able food and water.Have a manual canopener available.

Refill prescriptionmedications in advanceof storm.

Fill car tank with gas.

Charge cellphones.Have flashlights, batter-ies and a weather radio.

A portable generator can come in handy, but take precautions to avoid carbonmonoxide poisoning when using it.

Make sure the smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are working and thebatteries powering them are fresh.

Have a working fire extinguisher on hand.

A chain saw can be helpful for removing broken tree limbs after an ice storm.

If a problem occursSometimes, bad things happenno matter how much we prepare inadvance. A standard homeownerinsurance policy likely covers mostdeep-freeze disasters.

It’s best not to wait for disaster tohappen. If signs of problems are visible,it is always better to take measures toaddress them immediately, or call aprofessional for assistance.

If pipes burst, turn off the waterimmediately. Cut off the flow, thenattend to the mess. Dry properly andrepair any water damage. This will helpprevent any potential mold problems.

Call your insurance professional assoon as possible. He or she will helpyou understand what’s covered by thepolicy. And familiarize yourself with theclaims filing process.

Although the cold weather is here already, it isn’t too late to get ready for the ups and downs of the

winter season. Snow, cold air and ice can cause damage to a house and cost more to repair if gone

unattended, so getting the interior and exterior of a house ready are important steps to keep the

warm air inside and the cold outside and in the process save money during the winter months. Being

proactive is key. It not only will help lower the energy bills and boost the efficiency of the heating

systems but also make the property safer. Using these tips might help make sure a home is ready for

the erratic and unpredictable winter season.

WINTERWeather the

Bearing the winterThe winter solstice is two weeks away,but the Richmond area has already seensnow and freezing temperatures. Hereare some tips to stay happy and healthyduring the cold, bleak months.

Prepare your house for winterGet ahead of the game. When the temperature drops, here are some steps to consider for the interior and exterior that may preventfreezing pipes, slick sidewalks, roof leaks and other problems:

INSIDE THE HOUSE

Keep your thermostat to a minimum of 65 degrees. Thepipes inside the walls are considerably colder than the wallsthemselves. Anything lower than 65 degrees might not keepthe inside walls from freezing.

Know the location of the main water shutoff. Knowingwhere it is will save you valuable time in case you need to use it.Refresh your memory or learn how it works. Look for a video orinstructions online. Take notes and leave them where you canfind them easily.

Open faucets to let them drip slowly. During severe frigidcold, keeping the water moving within the pipes and openingthe cabinet doors where the faucets are located will help pre-vent freezing.

Make sure fireplaces, wood stoves or electric heaterswork properly. Double-check that there are no combustibleitems near the heat sources and watch them closely, especiallythe first time they are used. The fireplace flue should remainclosed when not in use.

Insulate pipes and hot water heater. This can help trim thewater heating costs, especially if the water pipes run throughan unheated basement. The Department of Energy says insu-lating hot water pipes can help raise the temperature 2 to 4degrees. Insulating the hot water heater trims 4% to 9% offwater heating costs.

Be neighborly. Neighbors can keep an eye on each other’shouses while either are away. Quick action could mean lessdamage if an emergency occurs. If away for an extended time,the water system should be drained and kept off to keep pipesfrom freezing or bursting.

OUTSIDE THE HOUSE

Snow weight. Accumulated snow is very heavy and can leadto roof leaks, ice dams and even roof collapse. A safe way toclear snow off a roof is by using a telescopic roof rake. However,calling a professional is the best option to avoid injury or dam-age to the roof.

Keep entrances clean from snow and ice. Aside from usinga shovel, rock salt can help de-ice driveways and sidewalks. Ifthe forecast calls for snow or ice, it’s best to be proactive andspread it before snow starts falling.

Check gutter downspouts. Clogged gutters might allowwater to seep into your house. Clear them of leaves and debristo allow runoff to flow freely.

Keep the garage doors closed. This could help prevent dam-age to items stored in it. If the garage is attached to the house,the garage side door is probably not as well insulated as an ex-terior door, so this will help keep more heat in.

Check for dead, damaged tree branches. Although theymay have looked healthy earlier in the year, trees can be hurt byice, snow or wind. When stressed, branches can fall and dam-age the house or car, or injure someone.

Frozen car doors. Using vegetable oil, cooking spray or evenWD-40 can help prevent it. Put some on a paper towel andwipe the car doors’ rubber seals. Auto parts stores sell siliconelubricant sprays that last longer.

Tire safety. Make sure your tires have enough tread depth togive you good traction while driving in snow. Tires also lose airpressure during the winter season. Cold air will drop the PSI byone or two pounds for every 10 degrees of temperature drop.

Stay active, even in the cold. We tendto stay inside more during the winter,which means it can be a challenge tostay fit and healthy. But running, skiingand even biking can still be an option.

Drive safely in the snow. Winterweather brings many hazards for drivers.First, check that your car is even readyfor the season, and then refresh yourdriving skills. Drive slower when ice canbe a factor on the roads, and make sureto keep extra space between you andthe car in front of you. Keep useful itemsin your car, such as a shovel, hand warm-ers, a flashlight, cat litter to use if you getstuck, and a blanket.

Use your thermostat wisely. Crankingup the thermostat in the winter can becostly and unnecessary. A programmableor smart thermostat can help. Droppingthe thermostat gradually can help youease into colder weather. Make sure yourhome isn’t leaking heat, though.

Avoid dryness and static shocks.Cold temperatures and snow might bewinter’s biggest annoyances, but dry aircan also cause problems. The skin andeyes will be a lot drier during the coldmonths. Keeping your skin covered out-side, applying moisturizer and using ahumidifier inside your home can help.

Prepare for the worst. Winter stormscan cause flight cancellations, impass-able roads and power outages, so makecontingency plans. Assemble an emer-gency kit for your home and car. Makesure snow shovels and blowers are ingood condition.

Keep the heat inside your home.Heat is expensive, so make sure itdoesn’t get wasted by escaping throughthe cracks. Check the places where heatcommonly escapes and insulate themif you can. Also, running the ceiling fansclockwise helps keep the heat circulat-ing downward.

Heat yourself instead of the entirehouse. Heating yourself is more impor-tant and efficient than heating your en-tire home — particularly if you live alone.Get your body ready for winter, seal offany unused rooms, and consider usingspace heaters to save a little on heatingcosts. A good pair of socks or slippers willhelp you keep warm and toasty.

The Owls are hoping he wins abunch more.

Taggart was introduced asFlorida Atlantic’s new coach onThursday. His contract calls forhim to be paid at least $3.85 mil-lion if all five years of the deal arecompleted, according to docu-ments released by the school.

“We plan on being here along time,” said Taggart, who

He’s also eligible for bonusesfor bowl appearances, confer-ence titles, year-end nationalrankings, coaching awards andacademic achievement by thefootball team.

“There was tremendous inter-

est in this position,” said FAUathletic director Brian White,who learned late last week thatnow-former Owls coach LaneKiffin was leaving for Ole Miss.

Taggart congratulated Kiffinfor what he did in Boca Raton,going 26-13 and winning twoConference USA titles in threeseasons.

“He made FAU a better foot-ball program,” Taggart said.

The terms of Taggart’s dealrepresent a savings for FAU —and for Florida State.

DETROIT — Jameis Winston has plenty toplay for and Darius Slay does, too.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Detroit Li-ons have been eliminated from the playoff pic-ture, putting their team goals out of reach.

But Winston and Slay are among a group ofplayers who will have something at stake Sun-day at Ford Field and over the last two gamesof the season.

Winston, who intends to play in Detroit witha small fracture in his right thumb, is in the fi-nal year of the contract he signed as the No. 1pick overall in 2015.

The injury didn’t stop him from throwing fora career-high 456 yards along with four touch-downs in last week’s win against the Indianap-olis Colts. But he also tossed three more inter-ceptions to increase his NFL-high total to 23.

Even though his future is up in the air, Win-ston insisted he’s not thinking about next sea-son.

“I got an opponent to focus on and it’s biggerthan me,” he said. “It’s about this team, so we

Ertz, who played a more de-fensive role in 2015, scored herfirst World Cup goal this sum-mer during a group-stage vic-tory over Chile. The goal cameon a leaping, twisting headerwhich she celebrated by blow-ing a kiss to the crowd inParis.

“It’s been a whirlwind of a

year and one that I’m extremelygrateful for,” Ertz said in a state-ment. “My team lifted me up inso many ways and our experi-ences on and off the field in 2019just encapsulate the love I havefor the National Team and forwearing this crest and what itrepresents.”

Slay has one more seasonworth about $10 millionon his deal, and there’s achance the standout cor-nerback may end up onanother team next season.He publicly questionedthe decision to trade safetyQuandre Diggs to Seattlefor a fifth-round pick ear-lier this season.

��

Here are some otherthings to watch whenTampa Bay (6-7) meets theLions (3-9-1) in the MotorCity:

Evans out

Buccaneers receiverMike Evans might miss therest of the season after hepulled a hamstring duringa 61-yard TD receptionlast weekend. He is amongthe NFL leaders with 1,157yards receiving and eighttouchdown catches.

The absence of the starreceiver doesn’t necessar-ily mean Detroit’s second-

ary will catch a break. ChrisGodwin ranks second inthe league with 1,212 yardsreceiving. With nine re-ceiving touchdowns, hetrails only Detroit’s KennyGollday in the NFL.

Tight ends O.J. Howardand Cameron Brate, whoscored last week, may getmore targets without Ev-ans on the field. Receiv-ers Breshad Perriman andJustin Watson each caughta touchdown pass lastweekend and could get anopportunity to score againagainst the league’s 30th-ranked defense against thepass.

“Nobody is going to beMike, but just be yourself,”coach Bruce Arians toldthe receiving corps. “Who-ever is playing the posi-tion, be yourself, do yourjob, and catch the damnball when it’s thrown toyou.”

Suh returns

For the second year in arow with a second team,Ndamukong Suh is setto face the franchise thatdrafted him No. 2 overallin 2011. He played with theLos Angeles Rams last yearin Detroit before help-ing them reach the SuperBowl. Now he’s back withthe Buccaneers.

The 10th-year pro spentfive seasons with the Lionsbefore signing with Miamiand spending three sea-sons with the Dolphins.The five-time Pro Bowldefensive tackle still hasfriends and fond memo-ries in Detroit.

“Great people there, al-ways showed me love,even when I’m there dur-ing the offseason,” Suhsaid.

He signed with TampaBay as a free agent lastMay and has 1½ sacks and13 quarterback hits. Healso has recovered fourfumbles, returning two ofthem for touchdowns.

“He has been playinglights out,” Arians said.

Closing strong

Even though Tampa Baywill miss the playoffs for a12th straight season, it canreach .500 in Detroit witha fourth straight win. TheBuccaneers can finish theseason with a winning re-cord by closing the seasonwith six wins in a row.

Arians, in his first sea-son, is seeing a shift in theteam’s culture.

“Just watching our guysand how hard they prac-ticed, in December, re-ally can’t ask for more as acoach,” he said.

Friendships only go so far in the NFL,however. Not only is James not inter-ested in his eliminated Chargers tak-ing another loss, but the second-yearsafety is eager to tackle Cook when theball is in the Minnesota running back’shands.

“I want to win every game, no mat-ter the circumstances,” James said.“When I’m in between the white lines,it’s time to play. That’s always been mymindset. But after the game, we’re goodfriends.”

Cook is in the midst of a dominantseason for the Vikings, who have wonseven of nine. He is the NFL’s fourth-leading rusher with 1,108 yards, and heis second in the league with 1,611 totalyards from scrimmage.

That’s no surprise to James, who sawCook’s work ethic up close. He recallswaiting after plays in practice at FloridaState while Cook invariably took everycarry to the opposite end zone to instillthe habit within himself.

“He’s a home run hitter on any down,”James said. “I know what type of workerhe is. He works hard every day, and he’sa dog on every play.”

James played in only two games forFlorida State during Cook’s final seasonin 2016 because of a knee injury. Cookstill saw enough from the hard-hittingsafety during his spectacular freshmanseason to realize he would be a prob-lem for opponents.

“He brings what you’re missingon a defense,” Cook said. “Every-thing. He flies around. Young player,but he acts like an older guy. He’s

got that swag to him that they weremissing.”

Their bond has continued in the NFL,where both have already fought backfrom major injuries.

Cook played only four games as arookie before tearing a ligament in hisknee, and hamstring injuries limitedhim in 2018.

James missed the Chargers’ first 11games this season after surgery to re-pair a stress fracture in his right foot. Hedidn’t make his season debut until twoweeks ago, but the 2018 All-Pro safetyhas returned by playing 98% of theChargers’ snaps in the past two games.

James and Cook leaned on eachother during their rehabs, Jamessaid.

“All the time,” he said. “We’ll texteach other from time to time. ‘Just keepworking hard, man, happy to see youback out there.’ When I first started re-covering and rehab, he was one of thefirst to reach out to me, ‘Happy to seeyou back out there.’”

Cook isn’t the only person withthe Vikings who knows what they’llface with James back at full strengthon a defense already boasting sackspecialists Joey Bosa and MelvinIngram.

“I’ve always been a big fan of his,” Vi-kings coach Mike Zimmer said of James.“He’s one of those game-wrecker kindof guys because he’s big and fast andphysical. They’ve used him blitzing alot in the past. Maybe not so much rightnow, but we have to be prepared for itas he comes out. But you have him andBosa and Ingram, the three guys closeto the line of scrimmage, and they cando some damage.”

lowing the World Cup. “It’s wonderfulthat she’s being recognized in this way.She’s always a consummate profes-sional regardless of the environment.Whether it’s in training, National Teamgames or in the NWSL, she alwaysbrings a level of professionalism, effortand talent.”

The women’s Player of the Year awardis determined by a vote of national teamcoaches and players, select media mem-bers, NWSL and select college coach-es, U.S. Soccer board members andothers.

MELBOURNE, Australia— Justin Thomas deliv-ered the biggest momentfor an American team des-perate for one Friday inthe Presidents Cup.

He holed an 18-footbirdie putt on the finalhole, dropped his put-ter and looked over at hispartner — U.S. captainTiger Woods — and thenborrowed a line from for-mer NFL receiver TerrellOwens.

“I love me some ME!”Thomas screamed atWoods, who also droppedhis putter and moved infor a hard hug.

All the Americans gainedwas momentum.

The International play-ers are going so well at thisPresidents Cup that theytook its largest lead afterany session in 16 years,and felt like that was theworst they could do.

Building on a 4-1 lead

after the opening sessionat Royal Melbourne, theyquickly won two morematches in foursomes.

Louis Oosthuizen and

Adam Scott rallied from 2down by winning five ofthe next seven holes andclosed out Dustin Johnsonand Matt Kuchar in the

opening foursomes matchFriday.

Patrick Reed heard itfrom the crowd again, in-cluding shouts of “Patrick

Cheat” for his rules viola-tion last week in the Baha-mas. Far tougher on Reedand Webb Simpson wasthe International team ofMarc Leishman and Abra-ham Ancer, who seizedcontrol on the back nine towin, 3 and 2.

At one point, the boardwas filled with black-and-gold, the new colors ofthis inspired Internationalteam led by Ernie Els.

It had to settled for a 61/2-3 1/2 lead.

Patrick Cantlay andThomas each birdied the18th hole to win matches.Gary Woodland and RickieFowler rallied from 2 downwith three holes to play toearn a halve.

“It’s perspective, isn’t it?”Els said. “I’ve got to look atwhere we are. It’s easy tojust look at where we couldhave been, because it waslooking really unbelievable.We tie this afternoon.”

Els then considered theAmericans have a 50 1/2 —

22 1/2 advantage in four-somes in winning the lastseven times, and maybe itwasn’t all that bad.

“We’re in a very good po-sition,” Els said.

The International teamhad its largest lead throughtwo sessions since it wonat Royal Melbourne in1998, the only time it haswon the Presidents Cup. Italso had a three-point leadgoing into Sunday singlesin South Africa in 2003, theyear of the tie.

Even so, the Americansfelt momentum shifting.

“We dug ourselves out ofwhat could have been a bighole,” Thomas said.

The match tied going tothe 18th, Thomas droveinto light rough on theright, and Woods followedwith a great shot that land-ed near the hole and rolledout 18 feet. Hideki Mat-suyama missed his 25-footspeedy birdie chance, andThomas had the last puttfor the win.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Just afew weeks ago it looked asif the final regular-seasongame in Oakland could bean important one in theplayoff chase for the Raidersand Jacksonville.

Recent slumps by bothteams have ended all thattalk, leaving the farewell tothe Coliseum as the onlymeaningful story line whenthe Raiders (6-7) host theJaguars (4-9) on Sunday intheir final home game be-fore moving to Las Vegas

next season.“It’s hard right now to re-

ally think about what it’sgoing to be like stepping inthere for the last time ever,”Raiders coach Jon Grudensaid. “The last time of theseason is one thing, the lasttime ever really hits a tonewith me and I’m sure a lot ofpeople.”

The Raiders come into thegame having lost three in arow, all by at least 21 points,and are all but eliminatedfrom playoff contention.The Jaguars’ skid is evenlonger; they are the first

team in 33 years to lose fivestraight by at least 17 points.

But for Sunday, the focuswill be on the end of an erain Oakland.

The Raiders have beenthrough dress rehearsalsfor this a couple of times inrecent years, with home fi-nales in 2015 that was alsoCharles Woodson’s finalhome game and last yearserving as possible farewellgames before the team end-ed up staying in Oaklandjust a bit longer.

But with the stadium inLas Vegas on target to open

next summer, this time itshould be for real.

Jaguars coach Doug Mar-rone was drafted by theRaiders in 1986 when theteam was in Los Angeles butnever played for the fran-chise. But he still enjoyedhis visits to Oakland whenhe was with the Jets andBuffalo, especially when hegot to visit with late ownerAl Davis.

Marrone remembers be-ing razzed by fans and howintense the environmentcould be and will make surehis players are prepared.

Cuddle up for a festive, fun-filled night on Fox, whenthe four funniest animated

families on television celebratethe holidays with new Christmasspecials, airing Sunday, Dec. 15.The festive episode of “TheSimpsons” (titled “Bobby, It’sCold Outside”) is the show’s20th Christmas special, while“Bless the Harts” is celebratingits first (titled “Miracle on Cul-pepper Slims Boulevard”).Addto that a “Bob’s Burgers” special(“Have Yourself a Maily LindaChristmas”) and one from “Fam-

ily Guy” (“Christmas is Com-ing”), and you’ve got a full nightof animated fun.

“The Simpsons” is known forits celebrity guest voices (manycelebs lend their own voices to astoryline that’s making fun ofthem).A special episode is theperfect time to show off howmany celebs still love this show,and “Bobby, It’s Cold Outside”goes all out. “NCIS: New Or-leans” star Scott Bakula and for-mer Microsoft CEO-turned-LAClippers owner Steve Ballmerboth lend their voices to the epi-sode, which also features the re-turn of the most notorious Simp-sons villain: “Frasier” star Kelsey

Grammer as Sideshow Bob.It seems some evil-doer is

traipsing around Springfieldstealing Christmas packages offof people’s doorsteps (a timelysubject), and this no-goodnikmust be tracked down if there isto be any hope of saving Christ-mas. In completely unrelatednews, this year’s Springfield MallSanta is none other than famedactor, professor, scientist, formermayor and convicted murdererRobert Underdunk Terwilliger Jr.PhD — more commonly knownas Sideshow Bob.The episode ti-tle riffs on the song “Baby, It’sCold Outside,” which was writ-ten by a man named Frank

Loesser in 1944 to sing with hiswife at parties. Despite nevermentioning anything holiday-re-lated, the 75-year-old tune hasbeen intrinsically linked toChristmas.

“Bless the Harts” is the babyof Fox’s Animation Dominationtime block.The show’s firstChristmas special is only itsninth episode overall, and hav-ing to follow a series with 672episodes (and a movie) under itsbelt might seem difficult if itweren’t for how much heart“Bless the Harts” has shownthroughout its freshman season,particularly in the way it haschosen to avoid tropes associat-

ed with low-income families, acategory that the Harts fall into.

Rather than having a dead-beat, alcoholic (or worse) boy-friend, Jenny (voiced by KristenWiig of “Saturday Night Live”fame) has Wayne (Ike Barinholtz,“The Mindy Project”), who cer-tainly won’t be winning anyawards for book smarts, but whowants nothing more than to carefor her and her family. In “Mira-cle on Culpepper Slims Boule-vard,” the show’s creator, EmilySpivey, voices Louise, Jenny’sboss at the restaurant. Louise in-vites the Hart family to her an-nual Christmas party, but afterseeing the extravagance of Lou-ise’s home, Jenny begins to feelinsecure about the kind of holi-day she is able to provide for herown family, and her mother, Bet-ty (Maya Rudolph,“The GoodPlace”), tries to focus on howshe can stick to a budget butalso “win” at Christmas gift-giv-ing.

It’s hard to believe “Bob’sBurgers” is already in its 10thseason (with a movie set to pre-miere next year), especially sincethe writers have been able tokeep each episode as fresh andfunny as the first. In “Have Your-self A Maily Linda Christmas,”the Belcher matriarch, Linda (hi-lariously voiced by comedianJohn Roberts, who based his per-formance on his own mother),wants some extra spendingmoney for the holidays, so shegets a temp job at a post office.However, Linda discovers an un-delivered package and ends upgoing a little off-book to ensureit reaches its intended destina-tion.

While mom is out saving theday, Bob (H. Jon Benjamin,“Ar-cher”) and Tina (Dan Mintz, “Ad-venture Time”) end up stuck athome with her difficult parents.The younger kids, Gene (EugeneMirman, who also voices a maincharacter in “Archer”) and Lou-ise (Kristen Schaal, “The LastMan on Earth”), are scramblingat the last minute to find theperfect gift for their eccentricolder sister. Megan Mullally(“Will and Grace”) returns asLinda’s neurotic sister Gayle, andTim Meadows (“Schooled”) isback as reluctant mailman MikeWobbles.

Fox has been most secretiveabout the plot of the new “Fami-ly Guy” holiday special, “Christ-mas is Coming.”All we know sofar is that Meg (Mila Kunis, “TheSpy Who Dumped Me,” 2018) isgoing to take Stewie (serieswriter and creator Seth MacFar-lane, who also voices Peter andBrian) to the mall to meet Santa,which ends up traumatizingpoor Stewie so badly that Brianneeds to help him process theexperience. If you were breath-ing at any point during the past10 years, you should recognizethe “Game of Thrones” refer-ence in this episode title, a spinon the Stark family slogan “Win-ter is Coming.”

“The Simpsons” signals thebeginning of family festivities onSunday, Dec. 15, on Fox.The slewof animated Christmas specialsfrom “Bless the Harts,”“Bob’sBurgers” and “Family Guy” aresure to have you and yoursheading to bed with a belly fullof cheer and a boost in holidayspirit.

It’s the eight-day holiday thatcelebrates the rededicationofthe secondTemple of Jerusalem

and recalls themiracle of theoilthat burned for eight days.

This year,Hanukkahbegins atsundownonSunday,Dec.22. It’sa timeof giving and sharing,andfor being thankful. It’s also a timefor eatingmounds ofmouth-wa-tering fried foods!

Hearty brisket,eggykugel, jam-filled doughnuts and crispy latkes(don’t forget the applesauce)—these are the traditional staplesyou’d expect to find on the tablewhengatheringwith friends andfamily.And theywill featureprominently in“UltimateHanuk-kahChallenge,”which premieresSaturday,Dec.21,on FoodNet-work.

In the past, the cable net-work has featured seasonal-

themed episodes of its regularseries (more on that later). But“Ultimate Hanukkah Chal-lenge” is the very first FoodNetwork competition that fo-cuses solely on the Festival ofLights.

It’s a standalone special,meaning youwon’t be tuning intoweekly elimination roundsthat culminate in a grand finale.However, its format is a familiarone, so you can just focus on allthe action—and the food,ofcourse.

Four chefswill be asked toputtheir ownunique spin on someofthose aforementioned classics.There are a total of three roundsto this competition (think“Chopped”) and thewinner getsbragging rights (the free trip toParis,France,ain’t too shabby,ei-ther).

MollyYeh,whoseChinese andJewish roots have inspiredmanyof the recipes featuredon“Girl

Meets Farm,”will host thisHa-nukkah special.DuffGoldmanandSharoneHakmanwill serveas judges.

“UltimateHanukkahChal-lenge”isworth awatch if you’relooking for fresh takes onold fa-vorites.But if you’re looking fortips onhow tomakebetter latkes,you’llwant to tune in to“GoodEats”onSunday,Dec.15.

The episode is titled “WholeLatke Love,”which meansAl-ton Brown will be doling outtricks and techniques for mak-ing Bubbe-approved latkes.He’ll also dive into the historyof the latke, and viewers mightbe surprised to learn thesegolden fried potato pancakeswere originally made from anItalian cheese. So keep that inmind when tuning in to “Ulti-mate Hanukkah Challenge” onDec. 21, or when gatheringwith loved ones on Dec. 22.Happy Hanukkah!

Putting the ‘challah’ in ‘Challenge’: Fooddebuts its first ever Hanukkah competition

Q: Is “You’ve Got Mail” aChristmas movie?

A:The definition of Christmasmovie has always been loose,but is pretty hotly contestedthese days — see the ongoingdebate (to put it mildly) about“Die Hard” (1988).

The discussion seems to re-volve around a few questions:Does most of the action takeplace during Christmas? Is theholiday somehow central to theplot? And more controversially:Is it a feel-good, happy sort of

story? (That’s where the action-movie entries lose points.)

“You’ve Got Mail,” on theother hand, picks up most of itsholiday points on this feel-goodelement.The 1998 Nora Ephronrom-com about two rival book-store owners who find unlikelylove on the internet (albeit avery late-’90s version of the in-ternet that seems pretty quainttoday), is a story about love’sability to overcome material orpractical obstacles.That’s a pret-ty Christmas-friendly message.

The movie is a little weaker onthe other two questions.TheChristmas holiday is in no way

central to the plot.A couple ofscenes do feature Christmas fes-tivities, including a prettycharming carol-singing scene inwhich the characters have a jollytime of murdering “The Instru-ment Song.”

If there’s a seasonal elementthat the movie does depend on,it’s “New York in fall.”There’smuch talk about the romance ofthat setting. But, of course, thismovie’s also about retail, and ifyou ask retailers, the Christmasseason starts on Nov. 1, so may-be that’s a point in its favor.

The biggest point in its favor,though, might be the stars —rom-com super pair Meg Ryanand Tom Hanks. “Around theholidays, there’s always a hugeemphasis on spending time withloved ones,” wrote Bustle.comfilm critic Olivia Truffaut-Wong.“And, I ask you, who is more be-loved to everyone than Hanksand Ryan?”

Q:Who does the voice ofFrosty in “Frosty Returns”? Itsounds so familiar.

A: It’ll make perfect sensewhen you know: It’s John Good-man.

Who else should play themagical, hulking nice guy in afeel-good story featuring a castof comedy luminaries?

The 1992 special, a followupto the classic 1969 Rankin andBass cartoon, also featured

“Saturday Night Live” alum JanHooks, ‘80s screwball-comedygreat Brian Doyle-Murray,“SCTV” star Andrea Martin, andstandup comedy legend Jona-than Winters.

The loaded comedy castmakes more sense when youknow that this one actuallywasn’t produced by ArthurRankin Jr. and Jules Bass, butrather by Lorne Michaels, the fa-mous brain behind “SaturdayNight Live” (with “Peanuts” ani-mator Bill Melendez on board tohelp with the cartooning bits).

None of that explains oneother notable casting choice:The young girl who helps outFrosty this time around wasvoiced by Elisabeth Moss whenshe was just 10 years old, yearsbefore finding fame on a stringof prestige-TV hits such as “MadMen” and “The Handmaid’sTale.”

Q:What’s going on withthose “Walking Dead” mov-ies?

A:Apparently not a whole lot,yet.

It was announced more thana year ago that the main charac-ter on “The Walking Dead,” RickGrimes (played by Andrew Lin-coln), would be the focus of atrilogy of feature-length movies.This news came after his shockdeparture from the show, and sothere was a lot of talk about

these movies — more than theamount that always swirlsaround this buzz-generatingAMC show.

But the talk has died down alittle now, and so far hasn’t beenreplaced by much action. It wassaid at the time that the movieswould go into production beforethe end of 2019, but that hasn’thappened yet, and even Holly-wood types take holidays at theend of December.

The first installment in thepromised trilogy doesn’t evenhave a name yet.

The biggest revelation we’vehad so far is that it will get a the-atrical release. Originally, it wasassumed that the movies wouldpremiere on AMC (the ‘M’ usedto stand for ‘movie,’ after all)and would function like two-hour episodes of the show.

But at this year’s San DiegoComic-Con, it was announcedthat the first movie (at least)would screen in theaters.

Two other, smaller detailshave since been revealed.Themovies will only be loosely con-nected to the events of the show,so that viewers will understandthe plot even if they haven’tbeen passionately watching all10 seasons of “The WalkingDead” (let alone all five seasons

of the spinoff “Fear the WalkingDead”).

It was also revealed that themovies will take place in Philadel-phia and will feature a differentkind of zombie. Part of the my-thology of the show is that zom-bies look and act slightly differentdepending on where they are.

“I’m sure there will be newwalkers to see, because this is ina different place,” said actressPollyanna McIntosh, who willalso star in the films as the pre-viously introduced characterJadis. “I’m excited to see what[director Greg] Nicotero comesup with in that regard.”
