Judge won’t reduce bail for
shooting suspectST. PETERSBURG —
A Florida judge has de-cided not to reduce the bail of a white man charged with manslaugh-ter in the death of an un-armed black man in a store parking lot.
Pinellas County Judge Joseph Bulone ruled Thursday that the $100,000 bail amount for Michael Drejka should stand. He called it “a fair and a reasonable bond under all the facts and cir-cumstances of the case,” since Drejka faces any-where from 11 to 30 years in prison if convicted.
The 48-year-old Drejka said he shot 28-year-old Markeis McGlockton in self-defense in an en-counter that has revived debate over Florida’s “stand your ground” law.
Surveillance video shows Drejka initiating the confrontation. Mc-Glockton’s girlfriend, Brit-any Jacobs, was seated in the couple’s car July 19 with two of their children, ages 3 years and 4 months when she said Drejka confronted her for being parked in a dis-abled-accessible space.
McGlockton then came out and shoved Drejka to the pavement. Drejka then pulled a handgun and fired as McGlockton backed away.

Lake Hernando Park’s beach access should be open today after a state-certified trapper caught two alligators in the lake Wednesday night and early Thursday morn-ing, officials said.
The night after an
estimated 5- to 6-foot alli-gator bit the arm of a homeless woman bathing in the lake, the trapper caught two gators — one 6 feet, 8 inches and the other 7 feet, 8 inches, said Karen Parker, spokes-woman with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conser-vation, or FWC.
“FWC’s response to
alligator-bite incidents is to remove the alligator in-volved,” Parker wrote in an email to the Chronicle. “Every effort is made to ensure the responsible alligator has been removed.”

A former teacher who spent 29 years instructing students at Pleasant Grove Elementary School will spend three months in jail for selling marijuana from her Inverness home, a judge ruled Thursday.
Abiding by the conditions in Kimberly Hellenberg’s open plea agreement from June, Cir-cuit Court Judge Richard “Ric” Howard sentenced the 56-year-old to 91 days in Citrus County’s jail and three years of drug- offender probation.
Howard also adjudicated Hellenberg guilty on her two counts of selling marijuana and two counts of possessing mari-juana with intent to sell — all third-degree felonies.
Hellenberg’s felony convic-tion, her first criminal offense, will cost her her teaching certif-icate and prevent her from re-obtaining one.
“I just apologize, I’m so em-barrassed. I love my kids, and I feel so bad I let them down,” said Hellenberg, who has been out on bond since her January arrest. “I see them sometimes in the streets. They give me

It was November 2015 when Kimberly Stibbs Menster began her “dream job” as Cit-rus County’s veterans service officer.
Though not yet certified and with no experience at the time, Menster was the first woman to hold the job in Cit-rus County. She grew into the role, receiving accolades from the county’s military veteran leaders who thought the
position should be higher on the county leadership chain and with more pay.
Now the county will be searching for a new person to manage the office, as Menster told her supervisors this week she is resigning.
“Her performance has been nothing but stellar,” Commis-sioner Jimmie T. Smith, an Army veteran, said.
In her resignation letter, Menster said she has been

Don’t want that flag?
NaNcy KeNNedyStaff writer
Have Americans lost their respect for the flag?
Bob Sprute, VFW Post 4337 commander, believes it’s more an issue of people being un-aware of proper flag protocol and etiquette than blatant disrespect.
Sprute said one Saturday he was burning flags in the post’s designated burn barrel when a young man came by and be-came very agitated.
“He was upset — ‘What the hell are you doing, burning a flag?’ he yelled. He thought I was burning a flag in protest,” Sprute said. “So, I explained to him that burning was one of the proper ways of disposing of a flag — he didn’t know that.”
The man asked if he could have a flag. He wanted to hang it on his wall at home.
Sprute gave him one, a folded flag donated to the post that had once been draped over a veteran’s casket.
A little while later, the man came back with his three chil-dren, all who wanted a flag of their own.
“So I gave them each a flag — that tickled me,” Sprute said.
Sprute said that gave him hope that respect for the flag is still alive and well and that people just need a little education.
“During a fundraiser we had here recently, a couple came in with a casket flag in a wooden and glass display frame that, as
they said, they ‘intercepted on the way to the dumpster’ from their neighbors next door,” Sprute said. “The flag be-longed to a decorated World War II veteran, and the people didn’t want it anymore and didn’t know what to do with it, and I can see that happening a lot.”
He said they’ve received a number of these folded casket flags, most in pristine condition.
What Sprute proposed to the post: Let’s be a collection point for flags in any condition. The casket flags, or any flag that is new or still in excellent condi-tion, we will donate to schools or government institution, civic organizations — any en-tity that wants a flag to fly.
The flags that are used but serviceable, they will make available to anyone in the com-munity who wants one, free of charge.
Flags that are too worn to be flown will be disposed of by burning.
The Inverness post burns upwards of 1,500 flags a year, burning them one at a time, fol-lowing proper flag disposal guidelines.
“What we’re trying to do is give the public an alternative,” Sprute said. “They can bring their flags here, and there’s no shame. We understand that sometimes you have a flag that you no longer want, and we’ll take them. We can put them to good use, or destroy them if necessary.”
Sprute added, “We think this is a problem everywhere, not just here, that’s not being
addressed. Especially with young people, they don’t understand flag protocol and they don’t know what to do
with a flag.”VFW Post 4337 is at 906 State
Road 44, Inverness. Call 352-344-3495.
Special to the ChronicleMarty Kloubec, VFW Post 4337 Quartermaster and Honor Guard member, and Terry Jones, post Honor Guard Commander and Trustee, conduct a flag disposal. Proper disposal of American flags include burning, burying or disposal at sea.
Don’t throw it away — give it to the VFW
FLAG CODE INFORMATIONThe Flag Code, which formalizes and unifies the traditional ways in which we give respect to the flag, also contains specific instructions on how the flag is not to be used.
They are:
n The flag should never be dipped to any person or thing. It is flown upside down only as a distress signal.
n The flag should not be used as a drapery, or for covering a speaker’s desk, draping a platform, or for any decoration in general. Bunting of blue, white and red stripes is available for these purposes. The blue stripe of the bunting should be on the top.
n The flag should never be used for any advertising purpose. It should not be embroidered, printed or otherwise impressed on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, napkins, boxes, or anything intended to be discarded after temporary use. Advertising signs should not be attached to the staff or halyard.
n The flag should not be used as part of a costume or athletic uniform, except that a flag patch may be used on the uniform of military personnel, fireman, policeman and members of patriotic organizations.
n The flag should never have placed on it, or attached to it, any mark, insignia, letter, word, number, figure, or drawing of any kind.
n The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
n When the flag is lowered, no part of it should touch the ground or any other object; it should be received by waiting hands and arms. To store the flag it should be folded neatly and ceremoniously.
n The flag should be cleaned and mended when necessary.
n When a flag is so worn it is no longer fit to serve as a symbol of our country, it should be destroyed by burning in a dignified manner.

Jordan Kimball cannot wait for Saturday.
The Crystal River High School graduate who’s currently starring in ABC’s “Bachelor in Paradise” is eager for the first “Manatee Fun Run,” a 5K noncompetitive run and 1K walk Saturday morn-ing at the Port Hotel and Marina in Crystal River.
The Manatee Fun Run is from 9 a.m. to noon.
“I’m extremely excited,” Kim-ball said. “I think this will be a
real fun event.”All net proceeds benefit Anna’s
Foundation, an organiza-tion that provides help and support for couples of stillborn children. Kim-ball’s nephew, Omarion, was stillborn Aug. 4, 2015.
Along with the run/walk, numerous games and activities are planned for families and children.
And some lucky person will win by raffle Kimball’s most prized possession from his ap-pearance on “The Bachelorette” — a Jordan-autographed pair of
(washed) gold-colored briefs given to him by bachelorette Becca
Kufrin.Kimball, a fashion
model, became a national hit on “The Bachelorette” with his quips and one- liners, and he’s carried that into “Paradise,” where, according to an in-terview he gave the Chron-icle in July, he finds love.
One of Kimball’s cast-mates, Nick Spetsas, an Orlando attorney, will be on hand Satur-day as well to greet attendees and pose for photos.
Kimball said the Plantation on Crystal River is donating a two-night stay with golf and swimming with the manatees as a raffle prize.
Kimball said he hopes for a good turnout from Crystal River High School, where he visited with teachers and students on Thursday.
While preregistration is closed, anyone can register to participate starting at 8 a.m. for the 9 a.m. event. Day-of-race registration is $35 by cash or check.
Chronicle reporter Mike Wright is an unabashed “Bachelor” and “Bachelorette” aficionado. He can be reached at 352-563-3228 or [email protected].

Legoland Florida plans second hotel
WINTER HAVEN — Legoland might be getting a second hotel in Florida, nearly doubling the current number of rooms available at the park. News outlets reported that Orlando-based Harris Civil Engineers filed a permit last week for a five-story, 150-room hotel on behalf of Lego-land’s parent company, Merlin Enter-tainment. The permit was filled with the Southwest Florida Water Manage-ment District.
The new hotel would be built over an existing parking area south of the resort’s first hotel. The Legoland Hotel, a five-story building with 152 rooms, opened in 2015, nearly four years after the theme park opened.
Puerto Ricans sue over Spanish ballots
GAINESVILLE — Newly-arrived Puerto Ricans are suing to have 32 Florida counties print ballots and other election materials in Spanish ahead of November’s vote.
The lawsuit filed earlier this month
in federal court argues the new Florid-ians won’t be able to exercise their right to vote without the Spanish- language ballots and voter guides.
The counties named in the lawsuit are along Florida’s Space Coast, Trea-sure Coast, the Jacksonville area, the Sarasota area, the Panhandle and a swath of counties northwest of Orlando.
Candidate claims to have been abducted
MIAMI — U.S. House candidate Bet-tina Rodriguez Aguilar has a long list of accomplishments to bolster her
campaign in Florida. But she is perhaps best known for claiming that she was abducted by space aliens as a child.
Rodriguez Aguilar is a longshot in the race for the Miami-area seat being va-cated by retiring Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. Yet last weekend, the Miami Herald endorsed her for the GOP nomination in the Tuesday pri-mary from a field of nine candidates.
Rodriguez Aguilar said she is grate-ful for the endorsement and that her tale of kidnapping by aliens does not define her.

Vesuvius erupted, burying the Roman cities of Pompeii and Her-culaneum in volcanic ash; an esti-mated 20,000 people died.
In A.D. 410, Rome was overrun by the Visigoths, a major event in the fall of the Western Roman Empire.

EntErtainmEntChicago ‘anti-bait
truck’ event to offer free shoes
CHICAGO — A Chicago rap-per’s foundation will be giving away thousands of shoes in a South Side neighborhood where a recent law enforcement sting using “bait trucks” to catch shoe thieves faced criticism.
The Chicago Sun-Times re-ports that rapper Vic Mensa’s SaveMoneySaveLife foundation will give away shoes Sunday in the Englewood neighborhood.
The event comes after resi-dents filmed police arresting a man and accused officers of try-ing to entrap poor residents with bait trucks. Norfolk Southern Railroad organized the sting with assistance from the Chicago Po-lice Department. The company has since apologized.
Foundation Co-Founder Laundi Keepseagle says the event will include multiple “an-ti-bait trucks” with gym shoes for everyone from toddlers to adults.
Mensa and Chance the Rap-per will also be in attendance.
Wonder, Faith Hill among all-star lineup
for FranklinNEW YORK — An all-star
lineup that includes Stevie Won-der, Faith Hill, Jennifer Hudson, Fantasia, Shirley Caesar and many more will perform at Aretha Franklin’s funeral next week.
Franklin’s service will be held in Detroit on Aug. 31. Also slated to perform are Ron Isley, Chaka Khan, Yolanda Adams, Jenni-fer Holliday and Aretha Frank-lin’s son, Edward Franklin.
The list was provided to The Associated Press by Franklin’s longtime publicist, Gwendolyn Quinn.
The service will reflect Frank-lin’s strong gospel roots. Among the gospel stars performing will be Marvin Sapp and Vanessa Bell Armstrong. The Aretha Franklin Choir and the Aretha Franklin Celebration Choir are also on the program.
The service will be held at Greater Grace Temple. Franklin died of pancreatic cancer last Thursday at age 76.
New book to focus on women in Donald
Trump’s lifeNEW YORK — A best-selling
author and Newsweek corre-spondent has a book coming out on President Donald Trump and the women in his life.
Gallery Books announced Thursday that Nina Burleigh’s “Golden Handcuffs: The Secret History of Trump’s Women” will be published Oct. 16. Burleigh, Newsweek’s national political correspondent, will draw on in-vestigative journalism and femi-nist analysis, according to Gallery Books. She will write
about Trump’s mother, his three wives, his sisters, daughters and female employees. She will also write about the more than a dozen women who have alleged harassment or other sexual mis-conduct — allegations he has denied.
Emmy nominee Millie Bobby Brown rises above hate
NEW YORK — Emmy nomi-nee Millie Bobby Brown contin-ues to show wisdom beyond her years. The 14-year old “Stranger Things” star is no stranger to so-cial media trolls. She hopes young people can “rise above the hate” and “not let anyone change you.”
Earlier this summer, Brown deactivated her Twitter account after being harassed online. She no longer looks at online com-ments and remains active on Instagram.
Brown received a supporting actress nod for her role as Eleven in “Stranger Things.”

hugs and all I can do is just cry. It’s been devastating for me.”
Hellenberg sold marijuana on two separate occasions to confidential in-formants with the Citrus County Sher-iff ’s Office Tactical Impact Unit, or TIU.
Last November, she sold 244 grams (8.6 ounces) for $750, and 252 grams (9 ounces) of marijuana for $875 in De-cember, according to reports.
TIU Sgt. Ed Blair testified to Howard on Thursday that his investigations re-vealed Hellenberg and her 20-year-old son, Brendan Brown, were getting traf-ficking amounts of marijuana shipped in from California.
“We’re not just talking about dime bags to her friends,” Blair said. “This was a family enterprise.”
On Dec. 28, 2017, sheriff ’s TIU and SWAT team personnel raided Hellen-berg’s home off East Blue Heron Lane and found 2.5 pounds of marijuana in-side, along with Brown, who was charged with possessing marijuana with intent to sell and possessing drug paraphernalia.
Hellenberg, who wasn’t present during the sheriff ’s office’s bust, was not charged at that time.
Brown, who was at his mother’s sen-tencing, pleaded no contest in July to his charges in exchange for a withhold-ing of guilt and five years of drug-of-fender probation, according to court records.
An arrest warrant was issued for Hel-lenberg, who was apprehended and
charged Jan. 10. Officials with the Citrus County School District re-moved Hellenberg from the classroom and approved her retirement on Jan. 22.
Blair and Citrus County Sheriff Mike Prendergast recommended on Thursday that Howard sentence Hel-lenberg to a year in jail — the maxi-mum Howard could have ordered in accordance with Hellenberg’s plea agreement.
“She’s touched the lives of countless students ... and this educator abused her position as a leader in the class-room and leader in the community,” Prendergast said. “This clearly is not for personal use, it was clearly to be trafficked in our community.”
Hellenberg’s attorney, Robert Chris-tensen, emphasized his client never sold or mentioned drugs to students.
“I apologize for any decisions that I’ve made. It’s given me a lot of stress in my life,” Hellenberg pleaded. “It’s hard for me to live day to day; I’ve just been living in fear.”
Howard reminded Hellenberg that the nearly three decades she spent making good impressions on local chil-dren — much like, Howard said, his own fifth-grade teacher did — were tar-nished after her latest “two bad decisions.”
“I loved that woman and ... the memories she instilled in us was a sense of belonging and sense of respon-sibility,” Howard told Hellenberg. “Sadly, I can’t help but think of ... your kids. What memories have you given them?”

“After careful consider-ation, I realize this is an opportunity too exciting for me to decline,” she wrote.
Menster, whose last day on the job in Citrus County is Sept. 28, could not be reached for comment.
Community Services Di-rector Tobey Phillips said the vocational rehabilita-tion program allows for veterans to return to col-lege for new vocational direction.
“This has nothing to do with pay,” Phillips said. “This is something Kim
has been talking about for a very long time.”
Retired Army Col. Curt Ebitz, who has been in-volved in veterans issues in Citrus County for more than 20 years, said Mester deserved higher pay and a department directorship, where she could report di-rectly to the county administrator.
“I think it’s terrible for the county but great for her,” Ebitz said. (Ebitz is a paid member of the Chron-icle Editorial Board.)
“The county is too narrow-minded to pay her the wage she deserves, and now they’ve lost an-other one,” he said.
Menster earned about $36,400 annually. The pay range for her successor will be $35,682 to $54,949, according to the job
posting that Phillips said will go up on Saturday.
Ebitz said with the new budget year starting Oct. 1, the county should use this opportunity to in-crease the pay and orga-nizational chart status of the veterans service officer.
“That job is a very stressful and very emo-tionally draining job,” he said.
Smith said he supports Ebitz’s position, but doesn’t think it will hap-pen right away.
But he wouldn’t rule out asking for it eventually.
“Whoever comes in,” he said, “will have to prove as worthy as Kim is.”

TALLAHASSEE — Accusing them of ignorance and bigotry, a federal judge this week excoriated Florida corrections offi-cials for refusing to accommodate a trans-gender inmate, despite the prisoner’s repeated suicide attempts and persistent requests to wear bras and panties and to have access to women’s grooming items.
U.S. District Judge Mark Walker on Wednesday ordered the Florida Depart-ment of Corrections to continue providing hormone treatments to Reiyn Keohane, who was born a male but began identify-ing as female at age 8 and started wearing women’s clothing, makeup and hairstyles at 14, according to court records.
The judge also ordered the state to allow Keohane, who had begun hor-mone therapy before she started serv-ing a 15-year sentence for attempted murder in 2014, to wear women’s under-garments and have access to grooming items available to female inmates.
After Keohane sued the Department of Corrections and several prison officials in 2016, she was allowed to resume the hor-mone treatments. But prison officials
continued to refuse to allow Keohane, who is incarcerated at the all-male Wal-ton Correctional Institution, to wear wom-en’s undergarments, let her hair grow or groom as a woman.
The hormone therapy is causing “feminizing” changes to Keohane’s body, but she is forced “to live outwardly as a man in ways that, though seemingly banal to some, strike at the heart of what it means to be perceived as a man or woman,” Walker wrote in a blistering, 61-page order.
Walker in a footnote explained that he used female pronouns when referring to Keohane “out of respect” for the inmate.
The judge chastised Jones and the de-partment for being “indifferent” to the prisoner’s needs, scolding that “if Ms. Keohane’s treatment in defendant’s custody isn’t deliberate indifference, then surely there is no such beast.”
“Defendant’s deliberate denial of care — that is, the denial of access to female clothing and grooming standards despite its knowledge of her diagnosis and her history of self-harm — has caused Ms. Ke-ohane to continue to suffer unnecessarily and poses a substantial risk of harm to her health,” he wrote.

TALLAHASSEE — U.S. Rep. Al Lawson is facing a serious Democratic pri-mary challenge from a former Jacksonville mayor as he seeks a sec-ond term in a congressio-nal district that stretches across a large part of North Florida.
Lawson, 69, handily beat longtime Demo-cratic Congresswoman Corrine Brown, in 2016, while she was embroiled in a criminal investiga-tion that led to her even-tual conviction on corruption charges and a f ive -year pr ison sentence.
But now Lawson, who served nearly three de-cades in the Florida Leg-islature and lives in Tallahassee, is being
challenged in the Demo-cratic primary by Alvin Brown, 56, the first Afri-can-American elected as Jacksonville mayor. Brown lost his mayoral seat after one term in 2015, after winning elec-tion in a close contest in 2011.
Both candidates take similar positions that re-flect the voters in Con-gressional District 5, which sprawls across eight North Florida coun-ties, running 206 miles from the urban neighbor-hoods of Jacksonville west to the rural enclave of Gadsden County near Tallahassee.
The district is heavily Democratic, with 61 per-cent of the voters sup-porting Hillary Clinton in 2016. It has the third-high-est voting-age population of African-Americans among Florida’s 27 con-gressional districts.
water around 1 a.m. Wednesday when the inci-dent occurred. Parker said the gator grabbed Gil-lette’s arm and attempted to pull her farther into the
water. Gillette escaped and was able to call 911.
She was transported to a Marion County hospital where she was treated and released.
Citrus County officials closed the park to give a nui-sance trapper time to locate and capture the alligator.
The park beach should
reopen to swimming on Friday after the county posts “swim at your own risk” signs at the park, Community Services Di-rector Tobey Phillips said.
“We want to make sure those signs are in place,” she said.
The county has alligator warning signs at one other
park: Lake Beverly in Bev-erly Hills. While that is not a swimming lake, residents take walks around the lake.
The signs warn walkers to keep their distance from gators.

William Andrew Bryant did not get far when he tried to outrun a deputy earlier this year in Homosassa.
But the 21-year-old Homosassa man, who was carrying drugs and a gun as a convicted felon when he fled police in February, decided to stop running from his consequences at his Thursday court hear-ing, when he pleaded guilty to his offenses.
Bryant, who was on the brink of having a trial scheduled, agreed to stop fighting his case by taking an offer that will put him in prison for eight years.
Had he gone to trial, Bryant faced between five and 80 years in prison for the five second-degree and one third-degree fel-ony charge connected to his February pursuit with Citrus County Sheriff ’s Of-fice Deputy Michael Laborda.
Laborda was forced to shoot at Bryant, injuring him, after Laborda had to dodge Bryant’s vehicle during part of the pursuit.
Both the State Attor-ney’s Office and Circuit Court Judge Richard “Ric” Howard at Thursday’s hearing offered Bryant both a 10-year and 8-year imprisonment deal, respectively.
Bryant was about to sign the eight-year deal when a relative from the court-room gallery announced
to Howard that Bryant’s family was hiring another attorney, causing Bryant to pause.
Howard ordered Bryant and his current attorney, Assistant Public Defender Edward Spaight, to discuss the unexpected matter within the privacy of a hold-ing cell behind the courtroom.
They returned moments later, and Spaight told Howard that Bryant wanted to retain another lawyer’s services and de-cline both offers.
“I’m not rejecting any-thing,” Bryant responded, “I just want to see what the new lawyer has to say ... I’m just asking for a continuance.”
Howard and Assistant State Attorney Blake Shore told Bryant their of-fers would be revoked once a trial date was scheduled.
“Once you walk away from the podium today, the court’s offer is revoked,” Howard said.
“I’ll sign,” Bryant blurted in response. “I’ll sign.”
“You accepted your re-sponsibility as a man, and I’m going to sentence you as a man,” Howard told Bryant before accepting Bryant’s plea and impos-ing the eight-year sentence.
While assisting on a traf-fic stop at around 3 a.m. on Feb. 15, Laborda spotted
Bryant driving without working taillights.
Bryant accelerated his Cadillac away and Laborda gave chase, fol-lowing closely behind Bry-
ant, who was crashing into m a i l b o x e s t h r o u g h o u t Homosassa, ac-cording to Shore.
Bryant lost con-trol of his car, which spun out near the dead-end road of Periwin-
kle Lane. Laborda pulled in behind Bryant’s vehicle to pin him in but Bryant reversed, struck Laborda’s cruiser and was able to drive away before crash-ing again into a yard near Periwinkle Lane and Ohio Avenue.
Laborda used his cruiser to block Bryant’s vehicle and was able to keep Bryant from revers-ing. Laborda got out, went around to the front of Bry-ant’s vehicle with his gun drawn and ordered him to get out.
Instead, Bryant acceler-ated his car forward while turning. Laborda was al-ready stepping back to avoid being struck, and fired one round through Bryant’s windshield, strik-ing Bryant in the chest.
“A couple inches lower and he would have been dead,” Spaight said about his client’s injury.
Bryant was able to still drive away, but wrecked again on Stonegate Court near the Stonebrook
Mobile Home Park.He surrendered to po-
lice, who later found a dis-carded loaded .380-caliber pistol, 3 grams of metham-phetamine, 3 grams of co-caine, 3 grams of marijuana, drug para-phernalia and equipment used to weigh and package narcotics near Bryant’s car.
In an interview with po-lice, Bryant admitted to possessing the drugs and firearm, which was illegal for him to possess because of a 2015 conviction on a felony offense.
Bryant recovered at a Hudson hospital, and was discharged to be held at the Pasco County jail. An arrest warrant was soon issued and Bryant was charged with attempted second-degree murder, ag-gravated fleeing and elud-ing, possessing a weapon as a convicted felon, pos-sessing cocaine with in-tent to sell, possessing meth with intent to sell and possessing marijuana with intent to sell and ex-tradited to Citrus County.
After reviewing evi-dence, Shore in March amended Bryant’s at-tempted-murder charge to the lesser crime of aggra-vated assault on a law-en-forcement officer.
In a memo filed with court records, Shore ex-plained he could not prove Bryant was guilty of attempted murder be-cause his victim — Laborda — wasn’t seriously injured.

Slide in banks and energy firms weighs on US stocks
Alex VeigA Associated Press
U.S. stocks capped an-other day of listless trad-ing with a slight loss Thursday as a slide in banks and industrial com-panies offset solid gains for the technology sector.
Homebuilders also de-clined following new data showing sales of new U.S. homes slumped in July. U.S. crude oil prices also ended essentially flat.
Investors had their eye on the latest develop-ments in the U.S.-China trade dispute as both nations held their first high-level talks in two months.
Traders also were look-ing ahead to Friday’s gathering of central bank-ers, including Federal Re-serve Chairman Jerome Powell, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, an annual sym-posium that has often generated market-moving news.
The S&P 500 fell
4.84 points, or 0.2 percent, to 2,856.98. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 76.62 points, or 0.3 percent, to 25,656.98. The Nasdaq composite lost 10.64 points, or 0.1 percent, to 7,878.46. The Russell 2000 index of smaller-company stocks gave up 5.49 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,717.05.
Stocks spent much of the day hovering just below their prior day closing levels.
Banks and other finan-cial stocks took some of the biggest losses Thurs-day. Charles Schwab de-clined 1.5 percent to $50.17. Industrial stocks also fell. Caterpillar lost 2 percent to $136.79.
New housing data also weighed on stocks. The Commerce Department said sales of new U.S. homes slumped 1.7 per-cent in July, the second monthly decline in a row. Toll Brothers led a slide in homebuilder shares, los-ing 2.8 percent to $37.29.
Hormel Foods fell 3.1 percent to $37.33 after the Spam maker cut its sales outlook, partly be-cause of uncertain trade conditions.
Other packaged foods companies also declined. J.M. Smucker lost 0.9 per-cent to $104.45. Campbell Soup slid 1.5 percent to $40.61.
Investors bid up shares in companies that deliv-ered solid quarterly re-sults or outlooks.
Synopsys climbed 6.4 percent to $100.75 after the maker of soft-ware used to test and de-velop chips topped Wall Street expectations in the third quarter.
Williams-Sonoma’s lat-est results also impressed analysts. Shares in the home furnishings and cookware company jumped 16.1 percent to $72.66.
Technology companies led the gainers. Advanced Micro Devices vaulted 6.7 percent to $22.29.

BEIJING — The United States and China went ahead with tariff hikes on billions of dollars of each other’s automobiles, fac-tory machinery and other goods Thursday in an es-calation of a battle over Beijing’s technology pol-icy that companies worry will chill global economic growth.
The increases came as envoys met in Washington for their first high-level talks in two months. They gave no sign of progress toward a settlement of U.S. complaints that Bei-jing steals technology and its industry development plans violate Chinese free-trade commitments.
The 25 percent duties, previously announced, apply to $16 billion of goods from each side in-cluding automobiles and metal scrap from the United States and Chinese-made factory machinery and electronic components.
In the first round of tar-iff hikes, U.S. President Donald Trump imposed 25 percent duties on $34 billion of Chinese im-ports on July 6. Beijing responded with similar penalties on the same amount of American goods.
The Chinese govern-ment criticized Thurs-day’s U.S. increase as a violation of World Trade Organization rules and said it would file a legal challenge.
A foreign ministry spokesman, Lu Kang, de-clined to give details of the Washington talks.
“We hope the U.S. side will get along with us to strive for a good result from the talks with a rea-sonable and practical atti-tude,” Lu said.
Beijing has rejected
U.S. demands to scale back plans for state-led technology development that its trading partners say violate its market- opening commitments. American officials worry they might erode the United States’ industrial leadership.
With no settlement in sight, economists warn the conflict could spread and knock up to 0.5 per-centage points off global economic growth through 2020.
The pressure on Chinese export industries that support millions of jobs adds to challenges for Communist leaders who are trying to shore up slowing economic growth.
Factory output, con-sumer spending and other indicators were weaker than expected in July. Beijing has re-sponded by pumping money into financial mar-kets and announcing plans for higher spending on public works construction.
Chinese leaders have promised to help strug-gling exporters and or-dered banks to lend more freely to them. But they have avoided full-scale economic stimulus that would set back efforts to rein in surging debt and nurture self-sustaining growth supported by con-sumer spending.
Forecasters say the im-pact of U.S. tariffs on Chi-na’s economy is small and manageable for now. Credit Suisse said this month that if Trump goes ahead with all threatened U.S. increases, the “worst case” outlook would cut China’s economic growth by 0.2 percentage points this year and 1.3 percent in 2019.
The International Mon-etary Fund’s growth fore-cast for China this year is
6.5 percent, down from last year’s 6.8 percent and more than double the U.S. forecast of 2.9 percent.
Ahead of the Washing-ton talks, Chinese state TV mocked Trump with a sarcastic video posted on the YouTube and other so-cial media pages of its in-ternational arm, China Global Television Network.
“You are great,” says a presenter on the nearly three-minute English- language clip, reading a letter that pays a satirical tribute to Trump.
“On behalf of doctors, thank you for pointing out the need to wean off American goods like bourbon and bacon,” the presenter says, referring to products on which China imposed retalia-tory tariffs.
The video appeared to have been removed Thursday from CGTN’s social media accounts.
Trump has proposed another possible round of tariff hikes involving 25 percent increases on an additional $200 billion of Chinese goods. Beijing issued a $60 billion list of American products for re-taliation if Washington goes ahead with that.
That smaller target list reflects the fact that Beijing is running out of American goods for retaliation due to their lopsided trade balance.
China’s imports from the United States last year totaled about $130 billion. That leaves about $20 billion for penalties after tariffs al-ready imposed or planned on a total of $110 billion.
Chinese authorities have said they will take “comprehensive mea-sures,” which companies worry could mean target-ing operations of Ameri-can businesses in China for disruption.
US and China raise tariffs in new round of trade dispute
Associated PressA man sits in front of a billboard Aug. 13 stating that American customers will be charged 25 percent extra due to ongoing China-U.S. trade tensions at a restaurant in Guangzhou in southern China’s Guangdong Province. The United States and China imposed more tariff hikes on billions of dollars of each other’s automobiles, machinery and other goods Thursday in an escalation of a battle over Beijing’s technology policy.

Observations in old age
As the years rush by, my feet get flatter and my nose gets longer. My hearing is practically nonexistent. Hear-ing aids don’t work. My epi-taph will read, “Eh! What’d you say?”
Every week yields a new ache on this rickety old frame of mine. Initially a sore shoul-der, then a pain in my hip, fol-lowed by a knee that refuses to bend and a crick in my back all add to my lingering distress.
My droopy noggin has got-ten heavier. I now walk with my head bent downward as if I’m looking for loose change on the sidewalk.
My precarious balance pre-vents me from puting my pants on while standing. I must lean against a wall or sit to do so,
Forgetfulness? I leave the kitchen sink running, forget to turn off the light in the bathroom or miss an appointment.
Learning to cook is a lost cause. As evidence of my cooking incompetency, I’ve lost over 30 pounds since my wife passed away. Eating out is tiresome, boring, even health-threatening. Micro-wave dinners are tasteless.
Doing laundry is an experi-ence in blunders such as put-ing softener sheets in with the washer instead of the dryer. I wondered why my un-derwear was so stiff.
I fill my idle hours playing Mexican Train dominos, Hand and Foot canasta, Pitch, Pinochle and Ponytail ca-nasta. Rich, my sometimes card-playing partner, rolls his eyes as I make one miscue after another. My fuzzy mem-ory recedes no further than the last card trick.
A lifetime of volunteering has exhausted that activity at this stage of my life.
The joy of working in my garden has been ruled out by fire ants. I am a magnet for them as the toxins of these tiny creatures itch, blister and torment me for more than a week.
The delight of my dour exis-tence is my frolicsome Pomer-anian dog, Happy. I call him “Yappy” for obvious reasons. He is always smiling and his antics amuse me no end.
Since my wife’s passing, it is not a question of my need for companionship, but miss-ing her that is so utterly unbearable.
A guilty conscience rages within me for not saying and doing the things I should have said and done before she passed away.
In tallying up yesteryear’s fated profit and loss, I’m truly destiny’s darling, having led a charmed life, and most im-portantly, loved the woman who loved me.

Fight to protect wildlife continuesAs we are all aware, the
Suncoast Parkway 2 is under construction. The judge mag-istrate unfortunately dis-agreed with the arguments put forth by the Friends of Etna Turpentine Camp. In his decision, he stated that we were now trying to use Etna to protect the snakes. We are and still are. The eastern In-digo snake for which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) issued an incidental take permit has a huge, well-documented range. Actu-ally there have been no sight-ings of them in the Withlacoochee State Forest east of the power line to County Road 491, but in the much larger main Citrus tract of the state forest. They have also been reported in the Sugarmill Woods develop-ment. The Etna site was an
ideal habitat for them, or as part of the mosaic of habitats that they favor.
As part of the taking permit and Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) where the park-way passes by or through state conservation lands, im-penetrable fencing will be in-stalled 3 feet below ground and 4 feet above ground, at-tached to the chain link fenc-ing. This will prevent Indigos, gopher tortoises and other species from crossing into the the parkway and getting killed. This fencing will only be used on about half of the length of the parkway; the re-mainder that passes through private lands and is prime habitat for Indigos and go-pher tortoises will be only protected by chain link fence. Basically, in terms of protect-ing the federally listed Indigo and gopher tortoise and many other species, this is totally useless.
We will be posting on the Friends of Etna Turpentine Camp Facebook site photo-graphs of snakes playing on chain link and going through. As for juvenile gopher tor-toises, once born they are on their own and are small enough to go right through a chain link fence. For all in-tents and purposes, the chain link fencing is best left at Home Depot.
Friends will be mounting a campaign to have the impene-trable fencing installed along the entire length of the park-way so that these endangered species and many other spe-cies will not become roadkill. The USFWS has admitted that they really have no idea where the Indigo snakes are and if the parkway will sever their territories. So if Citrus County really wants to tout it-self as the Nature Coast, the county commission should have FTE fence the whole parkway.

A Sugarmill Woods sand box
Close your eyes and imagine yourself as a child sitting in a Sugarmill Woods sand box.
Imagine playing in your sand box, and your next door neighbor Swift, and a bunch of kids from Crystal River, watch as you shovel sand into a pail.
One of the kids kicks your sand pail, scattering the sand, and everyone jumps for joy!
Since 2014, five members of the Citrus County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) either lived, had lived, worked, had worked, or had ties to Crystal River.
Since 2014, it is a matter of public record Sugarmill Woods homeowners were bul-lied into giving up their eq-uity interest in their water and sewer plants, and the street pipes and pumps in the “Greenbelt,” to lower the water and sewer bills for
other Citrus County users.Since 2014, unlike the folks
living in Crystal River, it is public knowledge that Sugar-mill Woods residents paid egregiously high water and sewer bills that we allege were raised three years in a row to pay greater dividends to investors around the world.
Since 2014, the Southwest Florida Water Management District’s storytellers acceler-ated the spreading of their “excessive Sugarmill Woods water usage” fairy tale.
Since 2014, the county com-mission said nothing and did nothing to stop investors and bankers from amassing prof-its off the backs of Citrus County’s residents, who were coerced into paying for the Levy County phantom power plant, the incompetently re-paired, then self-demolished Crystal River nuclear power plant, and the new Crystal River gas plant — at little cost to the shareholders.
Sugarmill Woods: Incorpo-rate. End Crystal River’s reign of terror!

Schools officials are on the front lines
School is in session, leading me to contemplate the work and roles assigned to our teachers.
A nearby state is one of those imposing “instant com-munities,” where people flock for “better opportunities.” A brilliant, well-educated cou-ple head there, quickly pro-duce three children, whereupon the husband can-not handle this and “offs” himself, leaving his wife to cope with three small chil-dren and the trauma of going it alone. Her coping mecha-nism of choice: Alcohol and parties and lots of babysitters.
She attracts another alco-holic, seeking solutions from his own fractured life, and off they gaily go, creating their own nirvana and leaving kids with a trail of so-far willing babysitters while they party, and to the efforts of their pub-lic school teachers.
Fortunately, said teachers are aided by strong male presence of “School Resource Officers,” who may be the only strong male presence these children are ever ex-posed to. What the future holds for these young ones, I do not want to contemplate, but for sure, public schools will be involved.
What is the result of all this rumination? A strong thank-you to teachers who teach and model many things in many different ways, often not in the “curriculum,” and for the resource officers dedi-cating themselves to bettering the lives of our next genera-tion, by their strong, caring male presence! (And for the administrators who make sure these stalwart protectors are in place!)

We can all do betterFive months ago — FIVE
MONTHS AGO — I submitted a letter to the editor that was printed on March 15 pleading with the responsible county commissioners, law enforce-ment and school board mem-bers, city and county officials to act on school safety as an urgent issue. Last Tuesday, Aug. 14, a meeting was held to finalize the protection — five months later! Good thing they showed their importance to the public by acting just be-fore the election to show how efficient incumbents are.
Fellow voters, kick them all out — the students and their parents and the public de-serve better!

MUST BE A BETTER WAY
Government paying government
School board members recently were surprised to hear that the cost of
securely transporting cash from schools to banks is going up — 194 percent.
They also learned they would be paying more for after-school secu-rity, over and above the money they recently had to come up with for extra school resource officers (SROs).
Naturally there was concern and a discussion about more c o s t - e f f e c t i v e methods for each.
The easy an-swer is to work with the sheriff and develop a con-tract that better represents the true costs of all extra ser-vices and SROs and see if there could some savings. But communication with the sheriff has been an issue, which is a shame because taxpayers are the ones who truly suffer in the long run.
Think how Joe Taxpayer must feel. He pays taxes to the school and the county. Part of the county money, roughly $29 million, goes to the sheriff ’s office. Mr. Tax-payer asks, why is the sheriff asking for money from the school district (another agency supported by my tax dollars) to be paid for pro-viding security? Isn’t that their job?
We realize the answer is more complicated than that, but it doesn’t have to be. It is one of the many inefficien-cies of government that drives taxpayers up the wall.
Government paying govern-ment for services rendered. It seems a waste of taxpayer dollars and it is.
If government could com-municate and work together, then some of these ineffi-ciencies would go away.
To be fair, the sheriff ’s office does provide se-curity at a price for other public events. For ex-ample, if the a group hosts a pa-rade or the hos-pital needs extra security it can hire off-duty law enforcement for that job. This
year, those costs went up across the board. Not be-cause the sheriff is greedy, but because they were previ-ously charging much less than our neighboring agen-cies for the same work.
Back to our original point. Government is inefficient and has a tendency to ex-pand without reason. Part of that is they want to protect their agency or branch and not give up the taxpayer dol-lars they already receive. No one wants to cut staff or re-duce services.
Nevertheless, taxes inevi-tably rise faster than wages and Joe Taxpayer is left wondering why he has to pay extra to have a deputy escort cash from a school to the bank. Shouldn’t that already be part of someone’s job description?
If government were more efficient and communicated properly, it would.
THE ISSUE:School board
mulls increase in costs for sheriff’s office services.
OUR OPINION:Government inefficiencies
impact taxpayers.

Consider switching to paper straws
A couple weeks ago, the Tampa Bay TV news was reporting beach businesses are switch-ing from plastic straws to paper straws. Star-bucks is switching, too. As a Nature Coast com-munity, I would like to see if our local busi-nesses would consider supporting this action going from plastic to paper straws.
Why can’t they restock the lakes?
This is in regards to the sup-port of the bike trail project where they voted to spend $400,000 on a study for a trail. I’ve lived here on this lake sys-tem in Inverness 31 years. I’ve seen it, I think, stocked — I’m not positive — I think it might have been stocked one time. Constantly over the years, I’ve seen this lake depleted, over-fished, and it’s to the point of ri-diculousness. When you work all day, you’re lucky to catch a cou-ple of bass, if that. The shiners are depleted; all kinds of small
fish are depleted. I live on open lake and I see what’s happening. I don’t understand why they
can’t spend some money in support of re-stocking this lake sys-tem. After all, there’s a lot of fishing people, a lot of sportsmen that have gone to the lake system. It’s an import-ant piece of our culture around here — water activities and fishing.
Water outages a continuing problem
I live in Beverly Hills, Florida, off of Forest Ridge Boulevard and this is the second water outage that we’ve had within the past three or four weeks. And the traffic that’s coming through Forest Ridge Boulevard are going way over the speed limit and we have tractor-trailer trucks coming down through here. And I think the water pipes underneath the road cannot take this type of usage and I’ve called in about it. And I woke up this morning to no water again and I wanted to see if someone would listen about what’s going on in the county. We need to take care of the taxpayers here.

HONOLULU — Hurricane Lane soaked Hawaii’s Big Island on Thursday, dump-ing 12 inches of rain in as many hours as residents stocked up on supplies and tried to protect their homes ahead of the state’s first hurricane since 1992.
The National Weather Service warned that some areas could see up to 30 inches before the system passes. Bands of rain extended 350 miles from the hurricane’s center. Lane was not projected to make direct hit on the islands, but officials warned that even a lesser blow could do significant harm.
“You do not need a direct strike to have major impacts from a hurricane this strong,” said Steve Goldstein, a meteorol-ogist at the National Oceanic and Atmo-spheric Administration in Washington.
The center of the Category 4 storm was
predicted to move close to or over portions of the main islands later Thurs-day or Friday, bringing dangerous surf of 20 feet and a storm surge of up to 4 feet, forecasters said.
Tropical storm conditions, with winds of 73 mph, were expected to reach the Big Island, Hawaii’s easternmost major is-land, later Thursday, with hurricane con-ditions possible after that.
As of 8 a.m., the hurricane was 290 miles south of Honolulu and moving northwest at 7 mph. Maximum winds had weakened slightly to 130 mph, the National Weather Service said.
Two campers were reported trapped overnight in Waipio Valley, along the Big Is-land’s northern coast. The campers called authorities Wednesday, but emergency crews could not mount a rescue operation.
In addition, there were reports of boul-ders falling into a park in Hilo on the east side of the island, Okabe said.
Shelters opened Wednesday on the Big Island and on the islands of Maui, Molokai and Lanai. Officials urged those needing the Molokai shelter to get there soon be-cause of concerns that the main highway on the island’s south coast could become impassable.
On the island of Oahu, shelters were scheduled to open Thursday. Aid agencies were also working to help Hawaii’s sizeable homeless population, many of whom live near beaches and streams that could flood.
Because there’s not enough shelter space statewide, Hawaii Emergency Man-agement Agency Administrator Tom Tra-vis urged people who were not in flood zones to stay home.
The central Pacific gets fewer hurri-canes than other regions, with about only four or five named storms a year. Hawaii rarely gets hit. The last major storm to hit was Iniki in 1992. Others have come close in recent years.

Congressman, wife plead
not guilty to illegal spendingSAN DIEGO — U.S.
Rep. Duncan Hunter was swarmed by demonstrators yelling “shame on you!” as he left a federal courthouse Thursday in San Diego after pleading not guilty to charges of illegally using his campaign account for per-sonal expenses.
The California Republi-can and his wife, Margaret, entered their pleas in fed-eral court, where prosecu-tors said bond could be set low because the couple is living paycheck to pay-check. The judge agreed to set bail at $15,000 for the congressman and at $10,000 for his wife.
A 60-count indictment un-sealed Tuesday charges the couple used more than $250,000 to finance family trips to Italy and Hawaii, golf outings, school tuition, theater tickets and even fast food purchases, and then attempted to conceal the illegal spending in fed-eral records.
South Africa blasts Trump over racially
divisive tweetJOHANNESBURG —
South Africa’s government lashed out at President Donald Trump on Thursday after he tweeted that his ad-ministration would be look-ing into alleged seizures of white-owned farms and the “large scale killing of farm-ers” in the country, an as-sertion it said was false and “only seeks to divide our nation and remind us of our colonial past.”
South Africa is in the throes of a racially charged national debate over land reform, a lawful process that seeks to correct the legacy of decades of white minority rule that stripped blacks of their land. Today, nearly a quarter-century after the first democratic elections, black South Afri-cans comprise 80 percent of the population but own just 4 percent of the coun-try’s land, according to the government.
Though the ruling African National Congress has pledged to close that gap, progress has been slow. In July, President Cyril Rama-phosa said his party would amend the constitution so the state could expropriate land without compensation to speed up the land reform process, but that has not yet happened and no land has been seized.
Trump’s tweet followed a segment on Fox News on Wednesday in which host Tucker Carlson claimed Ra-maphosa had already started “seizing land from his own citizens without compensation because they are the wrong skin color,” calling the alleged seizures “immoral.”

Sessions: Won’t be ‘improperly influenced’Attorney General hits Trump back
ZeKe Miller, catherine lucey and
Jonathan leMire Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump, newly incensed by campaign allegations, plunged back into his criticism of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, claiming in an interview that Sessions “never took control of the Justice Depart-ment” after Trump put him there. Sessions quickly hit back, declar-ing that he and his department “will not be improperly influenced by political considerations.”
Trump was interviewed on “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday, the day after his former attorney Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts — and implicated the president — and former cam-paign manager Paul Manafort was convicted of financial crimes unrelated to the 2016 presidential campaign. The interview aired Thursday.
Trump has lashed out repeat-edly in the past at Sessions, the Alabama Republican who was the
first senator to endorse the celeb-rity businessman but then re-cused himself shortly after taking office from the special counsel investigation that led to the crim-inal cases and is still underway into possible collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign.
“You know the only reason I gave him the job? Because I felt loyalty, he was an original sup-porter,” Trump said, criticizing Sessions because he, according to the president, “never took control of the Justice Department.”
Sessions slapped back in a statement Thursday afternoon, saying he “took control of the De-partment of Justice the day I was sworn in, which is why we have had unprecedented success at ef-fectuating the President’s agenda.”
He declared that while he’s at-torney general “the actions” of the DOJ “will not be improperly influenced by political consider-ations. I demand the highest stan-dards, and where they are not met, I take action.”
Trump in the interview also said in regard to his former law-yer Cohen that he thought it would be better if “flipping,” in which someone’s confidant helps prosecutors in return for a lighter sentence, “were illegal because people ”just make up lies.”
Trump tried to play down his relationship with Cohen, his long-time “fixer,” who claims the pres-ident directed a hush-money scheme to buy the silence of two women who say they had affairs with Trump. The president con-tends Cohen only worked for him part time and accuses the lawyer of making up stories to reduce his legal exposure.
The White House struggled to manage the fallout from Cohen’s plea deal and the conviction of Trump’s former campaign chair-man Manafort on financial charges.
The back-to-back legal blows have raised speculation that Dem-ocrats would launch impeachment proceedings if they win the House of Representatives this fall. Trump argued such a move would have dire economic consequences.
“If I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash. I think everybody would be very poor,” Trump said. He added: “I don’t know how you can impeach some-body who’s done a great job.”

Autopsy finds Iowa student killed by ‘sharp force injuries’
ryan J. foley Associated Press
BROOKLYN, Iowa — The Iowa college student who was allegedly abducted by a stranger while run-ning last month in a small Iowa town was killed by “multiple sharp force injuries,” investiga-tors announced Thursday.
Preliminary autopsy results from the state medical examin-er’s office also determined that 20-year-old Mollie Tibbetts was the victim of a homicide, the Divi-sion of Criminal Investigation an-nounced in a press release.
The agency did not release ad-ditional details about the injuries Tibbetts suffered or what caused them, but said fur-ther examination of her body may result in addi-tional findings. Autopsy reports are confidential under Iowa law, except for the cause and manner of death.
The man charged with first-degree murder in Tib-betts’ death, Cristhian Bahena Ri-vera, allegedly led investigators to her body early Tuesday in a corn-field outside of Brooklyn, Iowa, the
town where she was last seen last month. While investigators were
confident then that the body was that of Tibbetts, the autopsy definitively confirmed her identity.
Prosecutors allege that Rivera abducted Tibbetts while she was out for an evening run in Brooklyn on July 18, killed her and disposed of her body in the secluded location.
A criminal complaint alleges that Rivera confessed during a lengthy interrogation that began Monday to following Tibbetts in his car, getting
out on foot and chasing after her. Ri-vera told investigators that he pan-icked after Tibbetts threatened to call police on her cell phone, he blacked out and later came to when he was unloading her bloody body from the trunk of a car, it said.
Rivera worked for the last four years at a dairy farm a few miles from where Tibbetts was last seen. He and Tibbetts have no known connections, other than that Rivera allegedly told investi-gators that he saw her running previously. Investigators zeroed in on him as the suspect after ob-taining footage from surveillance cameras showing a vehicle con-nected to him circling the area of Tibbetts’ running route.

Football teams begin regular season tonight

The start of the regular season has arrived and hope springs internal. Two new head coaches begin their ten-ures at county schools and a local rivalry headlines the first week of action that counts.
Dunnellon at Crystal River, 7 p.m.
It has become an annual event that the Pirates and Ti-gers get together to open the season. This marks the fourth straight season this rivalry re-news in Week 1.
So far, it has meant a good start for Dunnellon and a rough beginning for Crystal River, as the Tigers have won those previous season open-ers by a combined 123-18, and have captured 16 straight overall in an all-time series the Pirates still lead 20-18-1.
“I think we’ve got to do a better job of making it a ri-valry game,” said Crystal Riv-er’s Cliff Lohrey, making his official debut as head coach. “It’s got to be a reciprocal re-lationship of pushing each other and competing with each other. Our job is to get it back to being a true rivalry in-stead of a past rivalry.
“It’s important for us from an on-the-field standpoint; we’re not looking for any moral victories. Our job is to go out there, to compete to the best of our ability regardless of who we’re playing. That’s easier said than done.”
Dunnellon, a team that went 9-3 and made a regional final in 2017, has some ques-tions to answer as it attempts to replace departed person-nel. The Tigers won 27-18 over Williston in last Friday’s preseason classic, and led 19-18 when the varsity de-parted after the third quarter.
“We’ve got to be more con-sistent, especially on de-fense,” Dunnellon head coach Price Harris said. “I’m proud of the way our offensive line is progressing. That’s our young group this year. As long as they are progressing, I’ll be real happy.
“This year is not last year’s team. They’ve got to find their own way. They’ve got to figure out who they are and where they’re at. They’ve got find their rhythm and how to play hard.”
Beating the Pirates, Harris believes, will depend heavily on whether the Tigers can contain running back DeAn-dre Parker.
“They play really, really hard,” Harris said. “They’ve got that Parker kid who can break it any time. They’ve got
some weapons, some tough kids. It’s a good football team.
“It’s really about us. We’ve got to continue to get better and be able to do our assign-ments. I definitely think we can slow them down a little bit, but if he gets out we’ll be in trouble.”
Stopping Dunnellon has been a significant problem for the Pirates, particularly the last two seasons, when the Ti-gers won 60-12 and 40-0.
“I think playing such a high-quality opponent in Week 1 makes it easy as a coach to create a sense of ur-gency,” Lohrey said. “Coach Harris does an outstanding job of getting them to play on both sides of the football in an aggressive manner. The de-fense runs to the football
really well. Offensively, they do a good job accentuating and highlighting what the kids do well, obviously led by the quarterback position.
“We’ve got to play excellent on special teams. They’ve got guys who can hurt you in the return game, coming after the football. We’ve got to be able to establish an identity on of-fense. We’ve got to be able to run the ball and throw the ball in order to be efficient of-fensively. We’ve got to play good field position, keep our defense off the field, sustain some drives and give our de-fense a chance to carry us.”
Dunnellon will be missing safety/wide receiver A.J. Hamilton, recovering from offseason surgery, and outside linebacker Kelvin Stocker is a
game-time decision with a knee injury suffered in last week’s game.
Land O’ Lakes at Citrus, 7:30 p.m.
Last Friday Citrus played and won a preseason contest at Leesburg, but it’s under-standable if the Hurricanes had their focus elsewhere.
After dealing with the tragic passing of offensive lineman Alec McMurray, whose fu-neral was the night prior to last week’s game, Citrus is dealing with the task of get-ting back to football.
“With everything that hap-pened last week, our kids were pretty numb,” Citrus

CRYSTAL RIVER — For the past three sea-sons, Lecanto has played catch-up to Crystal River in the county with little success.
That all changed on Thursday night at the Pirates’ gym. For the first time since 2014, and after seven straight losses to their county ri-vals, the visiting Panthers broke through with a 25-18, 25-19, 16-25, 25-17 victory.
“For our second match, I think we did well. We did very well,” said Lecanto assistant coach Wanda Grey, running the team while head coach Kevin Towne is out of town taking his daughter to college. “We talked real well. I think that we tried to work on some combina-tions that we wanted to get into play tonight and they did that very well. They hit some quick sets that we were working on.
“And they never gave up. We saw some of
those long rallies. We won almost every one of those points. So I was happy with that.”
For the most part the Panthers (2-0, 2-0 Dis-trict 6A-7) were in control, setting the tone in the opening game.
When Haley Thomasson and Kelley Sulli-van combined to serve seven points on back-to-back turns, Lecanto opened up a 12-7 lead and never looked back.
Sullivan would serve three more points next time around to make it 23-17, and after an ex-change of side-outs, Grace Teitelman, who had seven kills in the set, produced a game-winning block.
In the second, two straight aces by Joeimilie Rijos made it 15-9 in favor of the Panthers as they went on to open up a commanding 2-0 edge in the match.
But the Pirates (0-2, 0-2 6A-7) got out to a 4-0 start in the third with Alyssa Hamilton at serve. They led by as much as 23-11 when Jor-dan Williams served a couple of points.
Lecanto mounted a late rally, Davis Bryson tallying four points while at serve, but Crystal River held on to extend the match.
The Panther shook that off to quickly
Rays win on error at plate
Complete 4-game sweep of Royals
Mark didtlerAssociated Press
ST. PETERSBURG — A throwing error on Kevin Kier-maier’s bases-loaded grounder in the ninth inning helped the Tampa Bay Rays complete a four-game sweep by beating the Kansas City Royals 4-3 on Thursday night.
Jake Bauers opened the ninth by drawing a walk from Brian Flynn (4-4) and went to third on C.J. Cron’s single.
After Joey Wendle grounded out and Willy Adames was in-tentionally walked to load the bases, Kiermaier grounded a 3-2 pitch to first baseman Ryan O’Hearn, who made a wild toss to the plate.
Sergio Romo (3-3) worked a perfect ninth as Tampa Bay im-proved to a season-high six games over .500 (67-61) with its fifth consecutive victory.
Kansas City, which has lost 17 of 21, fell 52 games under .500 (38-90) and was eliminated from the playoff race.
The Rays tied it at 3 when Matt Duffy scored from second on a bad throw to first by sec-ond baseman Whit Merrifield on a potential double-play grounder hit by Cron.
Tampa Bay appeared to go up 4-3 later in the seventh on Kiermaier’s grounder, but the run was taken away after a replay review determined Adames made an illegal slide at second base. The call was changed to an inning-ending double play.
Alex Gordon had an RBI sin-gle in a two-run fifth against Tampa Bay starter Tyler Glas-now that put the Royals ahead 3-2.
Adames hit a run-scoring in-field single against Danny Duffy during a two-run third.
Duffy, making his first start in 12 days due to a left shoulder injury, allowed two runs and six hits over five innings.
Lucas Duda drove in a run with a first-inning single and had a potential two-run extra-base hit taken away with two outs in the third on a leap-ing catch by Rays right fielder Carlos Gomez.
Glasnow allowed three runs, five hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out eight.
TRAINER’S ROOMRays: OF Tommy Pham (dis-
located right ring finger) felt soreness hitting off a tee but could play this weekend.
UP NEXTRays: Will go with a bullpen
day, including LHP Jalen Beeks (2-1), against Boston RHP Hec-tor Velazquez (7-1) tonight.

Ex-Michigan State gymnastics coach charged in Nassar case
LANSING, Mich. — A former head coach of Michigan State’s gymnastics team was charged Thursday with lying to an investigator when she denied that witnesses told her years ago about being sexually assaulted by ex-sports doctor Larry Nassar.
A charging document doesn’t specify how many witnesses allegedly reported Nassar to Kathie Ann Klages, or when they did so. But for-mer gymnast Larissa Boyce has said she told Klages of Nassar’s abuse in 1997, when Boyce was 16 — 19 years before he was criminally charged with sexual abuse.
Klages resigned in 2017 after she was sus-pended for defending the now-imprisoned Nassar.
If convicted of lying to a peace officer, the 63-year-old Klages could face up to four years in prison.
4-way tie for lead at Northern Trust as Woods stalls
PARAMUS, N.J. — Tiger Woods failed to carry any momentum he had from his last tour-nament into the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs. Neither did Sean O’Hair. That was only good news for one of them.
O’Hair missed the cut last week and is No. 121 in the FedEx Cup standings, meaning he had to play well at The Northern Trust or his season is over. He made one eagle, had a good look at another and shot a 5-under 66 to join Jamie Lovemark, Vaughn Taylor and Kevin Tway atop the leaderboard.
Woods, a runner-up at the PGA Champion-ship two weeks ago, didn’t do anything great or anything bad and shot a 71, leaving him in a tie for 60th.
Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka were among those at 67.

head coach Nate Varna-dore said. “I’m interested to see how we do back in a traditional routine.
“The emotions showed up in (last week’s) game. Now the kids are upbeat. I think emotionally we’re in a much, much better place. I’m not saying we’re not acknowledging Alec, but now we’re in the heal-ing process.”
For so long a perennial playoff team, Land O’ Lakes has fallen on hard times, coming off four straight losing seasons. But Varnadore believes they have more to offer.
“They’re a very sound, physical football team. They play great defense. I want to see how we match up with them,” Varnadore said. “I want to see who steps up and leads right now.
“We have to be solid in the running game. We’ve got to tackle great. We’ve got be what they are. We’re hammering to (his players), ‘Do your job. We’ll put you in position to be successful, just do your job.’ Once ev-erything is clicking, I think we’ll be fine.”
Crescent City at Lecanto. 7 p.m.
There’s no sugarcoating what Lecanto went through in a winless 2017. Now the question is can the Pan-thers begin to turn things around.
Though they face a 1A squad, the Raiders went 7-2 last season including a 39-0 victory over Lecanto.
“I think we’ve come a long way from last year. But we’ve still got to keep get-ting better,” Lecanto head coach Greg Harper said. “This is a pretty good test for us. They’re a very com-petitive team.
“They’ve got big players. They’re very athletic and have a lot of speed. So it’ll
be difficult for us to match up with them.”
Still, the Panthers showed enough progress in last week’s 15-8 exhibition preseason loss to West Port to feel like things may be heading in an upward direction.
“At times we looked re-ally, really good. At times we looked really, really bad,” Harper said. “We moved the ball on offense, we just didn’t finish drives. A lot of mistakes have got to be cleaned up.”
The Panthers will be without outside line-backer/fullback Jarrett Kish, who suffered an un-disclosed injury.
Bayshore Christian at Seven Rivers
Christian, 7:30 p.m.A new era officially be-
gins for Seven Rivers, as the Warriors play their first regular-season contest under new head coach Monty Vann.
“The guys are getting the system down. After last week I think we’ve got a lot of the bugs out,” said Vann, referring to a 20-14 presea-son loss at St. Edwards. “We played well, but we had six turnovers. You can’t have six turnovers in a game and expect to win.
“This week we focused on the fundamentals of holding on to the football and not throwing interceptions.”
After nearly reaching the FHSAA 2A state finals a year ago, the Warriors have returned to the Sun-shine State Athletic Con-ference and face a SSAC non-division foe, also called the Warriors.
Vann said his Warriors will have to find a way to deal with dual-threat quar-terback Justin Santiago, and thinks that will require a strong pass rush.
“We want to get on the right foot and get rolling,” Vann said. “This game sets the tone for the rest of the year.”

recapture momentum. They went in front 14-9 scoring four times with Court-ney Dye serving, creating all the breathing room they would need.
Teitelman, a sophomore, came alive one again in the fourth with five kills. That gave her 14 for the match.
“I think we did really good. Our team-work was good. We all worked together really well toward the beginning and the end,” Teitelman said. “I think I was just really focused on getting my hits in and doing what we did in practice.
“We feel good. We’re really hoping that we can take that into our next games.”
Rijos added 30 assists, while Thom-asson chipped in nine kills and Mikal Sorel had seven for the Panthers, who swept Central to open the season on Tuesday.
“Of course that’s a positive for us,” Grey said. “It gives us just a positive mov-ing forward as we get into next week. Next week we have Belleview, Weeki Wa-chee and a little bit tougher teams.”
Williams and Sarah Miller totaled four kills apiece to pace the Pirates. They were swept on Tuesday by Weeki Wachee, so they won their first game of the new season when they took the
third in this one.“They did OK,” said first-year Crystal
River head coach Megan Spelich. “The third game we were really strong. The first two games we were real slow start-ing out. Had a hard time in our back row defensively, which is what we’ve really been focusing on. So I was a little frustrated with that.
“And the fourth game here we had a couple of errors that didn’t really go in our favor. So we kind of got down on that and had a hard time coming back. But the third game we played really well. We had a lot of hits. We played the way that we should be playing. So they were playing together, focusing; things like that.”

Lasting stain for MeyerOSU probe shows he allowed bad
behavior for yearsMitch StacyAP sports writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Urban Meyer may have weathered scandal at Ohio State, but not without a last-ing stain as an exhaustive report de-tailed behavior that could easily have taken down a coach of lesser stature.
The investigation released soon after Meyer answered questions from reporters about his suspension Wednesday night showed that he tol-erated bad behavior for years from assistant coach Zach Smith, includ-ing domestic-violence accusations, drug addiction, lies and other acts that directly clash with the values Meyer touts publicly.
The findings represent a new turn in the saga, showing how the super-star coach — who preaches “core values” like honesty, treating women with respect and not using drugs or stealing — failed to live up to those ideals when handling several issues squarely within his control while dealing with the grandson of legend-ary Ohio State coach Earle Bruce.
Ohio State issued Meyer a rela-tively light, three game suspension — granting enough leeway to still let him prep the Buckeyes for two games they’re unlikely to lose. He will also lose six weeks of salary in a year he’s slated to earn $7.6 million under a deal that runs through 2022.
Meanwhile, his football team was back at practice without him on Thursday, preparing for the opener against Oregon State on Sept. 1. Co-offensive coordinator/quarter-backs coach Ryan Day will continue to coach the team during Meyer’s absence.
Smith has denied being aggres-sive with his ex-wife. His attorney said Wednesday that Meyer and ath-letic director Gene Smith were “col-lateral damage” from Courtney Smith’s desire to hurt her ex-husband. Courtney Smith’s attor-ney did not comment on Thursday
as Ohio State’s decision reverber-ated through the sports world.
Meyer, 54, kept his job through the bizarre chapter but likely will never be the same — or be considered in the same way.
Ohio State’s report found Meyer “went too far” in allowing Smith to remain on the staff for so long, with-out explicitly covering up or con-doning any of Smith’s misconduct.
The report details some of the missteps:
n Meyer and his wife Shelley clearly didn’t believe Zach Smith had committed domestic abuse against his now-ex-wife Courtney. Despite an incident in 2009 that re-sulted in Zach Smith’s arrest, and another accusation in October 2015 and a recurring investigation by po-lice, Meyer gave his protege the benefit of the doubt. The report suggests Shelley Meyer, who swapped text messages with Court-ney Smith after the 2015 accusa-tion, “had doubts about the veracity of Courtney Smith’s allegations” and for that reason didn’t share it with her husband.
n Because Smith wasn’t arrested for domestic violence in 2015, nei-ther Meyer nor athletic director Gene Smith believed they were
obligated to report it to university officials. Gene Smith was sus-pended for two weeks for his role in the handling of Zach Smith.
n While the report stops short of saying Meyer lied when asked about his knowledge of the 2015 domestic abuse allegations against Zach Smith, the report found that he in-tentionally misled reporters about what he knew, and talked to a staff member about possibly deleting some text messages from his phone. He told investigators he had no memory of being told about the 2015 events, even though Gene Smith sent him a text about how to handle questions about it.
“Although it is a close question and we cannot rule out that Coach Meyer was intentionally misleading in his answers, we do not ultimately find that he was,” the report con-cluded. “He clearly misspoke and made misstatements, but the rea-sons that happened are complex.”
Those reasons, according to the report, included “significant mem-ory issues in other situations where he had prior extensive knowledge of events. He has also periodically taken medicine that can negatively impair his memory, concentration and focus.”
Associated PressOhio State football coach Urban Meyer makes a statement Wednesday during a news conference in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio State suspended Meyer for three games for mishandling domestic violence accusations, punishing one of the sport’s most prominent leaders for keeping an assistant on staff for several years after the coach’s wife accused him of abuse.

Your rear view mir-ror may help you look back, but the
band Rear View Mirror will let you listen back — back to the music you first loved years ago. This clas-sic rock band will be play-ing tonight at The Blue Gator in Dunnellon.
Members of Rear View Mirror are Dennis Van-Note, lead guitar; Bob Corey, bass; Steve Bohringer, keyboard; Mike Humphries, drums; and Julie Penny-Jeffus, guitar and percussion. All are vocalists, giving the band the depth to do three- and four-part harmonies.
According to VanNote, the band has three crite-ria for song selection. First, and most impor-tantly, they play songs that their audience have come to hear, like classic Beat-les and Stones. Second, they play music for danc-ing. “Get them on the dance floor and they stick around longer.” Songs like “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” and some Joe Cocker tunes fit the bill.
The last determinate of song selection is sur-prised delight. Not every song in their repertoire is predict-able. VanNote wants to hear patrons say “That’s a great song, I haven’t heard it in a while.” “Knights in White Satin” is one that fits the bill.
The band plays from Cedar Key to Daytona and Tampa. They are currently performing about four times per month. Rear View Mirror is a monthly attraction at The Blue Gator.
Their Facebook page is www. facebook.com/ RearViewMirror Williston/.

Tickets on sale for ‘Still Alice’
Special to the Chronicle
Tickets are on sale for “Still Alice,” which will be shown at the his-toric Valerie Theatre in Inverness
in October to raise funds for the Alzheimer’s Fam-ily Organization.
The highly acclaimed motion picture, starring Julianne Moore and Alec Baldwin, will run twice, at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Oct. 21. It portrays how the bonds of a family are tested when the mother, an accomplished linguis-tics professor, is diag-nosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
When released in 2014, “Still Alice” did not have a strong box of-fice performance, but by the end of the year it had earned 30 top film awards including a Best Actress Oscar for Moore’s performance.
Its recognition as a significant contri-bution to both cinema art and the cause of better Alzheimer’s awareness has steadily grown since its release.
One critic wrote, “Julianne Moore is
on the top of her game; she delivers an authentic portrayal of a woman trying to come to grips with her terrible diag-nosis. As the title suggests, the focus is on Alice and her character is fully de-
veloped even when she is at her lowest.”
Following the film, ex-perts on Alzheimer’s and dementia from the Alzhei-mer’s Family Organiza-tion will be available for questions and answers with the audience.
General admission tick-ets for both the matinee and evening perfor-mances are $20 each.
Based on the results of last year’s special Alzhei-mer’s Awareness movie at the Valerie, both showings are expected to sell out. To acquire tickets online,
go to www.valerietheatre.org.Tickets are also available at the box
office, in person or by phone, Thursday through Saturday, noon to 4 p.m. and one hour before showtimes.
The Valerie Theatre is at 207 Court-house Square, Inverness; 352-341-7850, ext. 2.

Special to the Chronicle
The Citrus County Craft Council, a nonprofit orga-nization, will host its 29th annual Harvest Moon Craft Show on Saturday, Aug. 25, at the Florida Na-tional Guard Armory, 8551 W. Venable St., Crystal River, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The event is one of three shows held annu-ally by the craft council. The group consists of 70 artisans who create a wide variety of unique, handmade treasures.
There will be custom, handmade pocketbooks; beautiful jewelry from several talented jewelers; intricate needlework; amazing decorated pine-cones; beautiful silk floral designs; original mesh wreaths; wooden toys, wood turned bowls, wooden yard art; fall and holiday décor; realistic hand-carved wooden birds; edible treats such
as chocolates and baked masterpieces, even hand-made treats for pets. Food trucks will be on hand as well. This represents a small sample of what visi-tors can expect to see at a Citrus County Craft Coun-cil show. There will be something for everyone’s taste and budget.
Another reason to at-tend the Harvest Moon Craft Show is to support the Citrus County charity chosen to benefit from the sale of raffle tickets during the event.
The charity for this show is Mission in Citrus, a homeless shelter in Crystal River. They will receive all of the money generated by the sale of the raffle tickets. The prizes are donated by the crafters, making it well worth the cost of a few raffle tickets.
Admission and parking are free. For more infor-mation, visit www.citrus countycraftcouncil.org.

The plot revolves around the exploits of a young man named Harold Chasen (Bud Cort) who is intrigued with death. Harold drifts away from the life that his detached mother (Vivian Pickles) prescribes for him, and slowly develops a strong friend-ship, and eventually a romantic relationship, with a 79-year-old woman named Maude (Ruth Gordon), who teaches Harold about living life to its fullest and that life is the most pre-cious gift of all.

Originally released by Para-mount Pictures, the film stars James Stewart, Grace Kelly, Wendell Corey, Thelma Ritter and Raymond Burr. It was screened at the 1954 Venice Film Festival.
The film is considered by many filmgoers, critics and scholars to be one of Hitch-cock’s best and one of the great-est films ever made. It received four Academy Award nomina-tions and was ranked No. 42 on AFI’s “100 Years ... 100 Movies” list and No. 48 on the 10th-anni-versary edition, and in 1997 was added to the United States Na-tional Film Registry in the Li-brary of Congress as being “culturally, historically or aes-
thetically significant.”n Sept. 30 — “Vertigo” (PG) is
a 1958 American film noir psy-chological thriller film directed and produced by Alfred Hitch-cock. The story was based on the 1954 novel D’entre les morts (“From Among the Dead”) by Boileau-Narcejac. The screen-play was written by Alec Coppel and Samuel A. Taylor.
The film stars James Stewart as former police detective John “Scottie” Ferguson. Scottie is forced into early retirement be-cause an incident in the line of duty has caused him to develop acrophobia (an extreme fear of heights) and vertigo (a false sense of rotational movement). Scottie is hired by an acquain-tance, Gavin Elster, as a private investigator to follow Gavin’s wife Madeleine (Kim Novak), who is behaving strangely.
The film was shot on location in San Francisco and at
Paramount Studios in Holly-wood. It is the first film to use the dolly zoom, an in-camera ef-fect that distorts perspective to create disorientation, to convey Scottie’s acrophobia. As a re-sult of its use in this film, the ef-fect is often referred to as “the Vertigo effect.” It has appeared repeatedly in polls of the best films by the American Film In-stitute, including a 2007 ranking as the ninth-greatest American movie of all time.
Also coming up is a live musi-cal event at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 15 with Lannie Battistini and the Hands In Motion Latin Jazz Ensemble.
Pianist, arranger, producer and Grammy Award-winner Lannie Battistini has spear-headed the music industry with three of his Latin jazz albums. His original arrangements are known for their powerful fusion of popular mainstream jazz
with his style of authentic, Af-ro-Cuban Latin jazz rhythms which trademark each composition.
Together with world-class musicians, Battistini will bring a unique jazz experience with a special tribute with standards from Cole Porter and Herbie Hancock and a combination of other musical interpretations and original compositions from his albums.
Watch for these movies in Oc-tober — “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” “The Shining,” “Young Frankenstein,” “The Day the Earth Stood Still” and “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.”
Tickets for all events are now on sale at the Valerie Theatre box office, noon to 4 p.m. Thurs-day through Saturday, one hour before show times and online at www.valerietheatre.org. Call 352-341-7850, ext. 2, for more information.

I have a friend in the Nature Coast Mustang club who con-siders himself to be a real “car
nut” since birth and I can say that I see signs of this affliction. His name is Howard Warner and he is the parts manager at Nick Nicho-las Ford in Inverness.
He has always worked in the automo-tive-related industry. At a very young age, he would call out the year, make and model of passing cars while his dad was driving. He still has many of Match-box and Hot Wheels cars that were well loved as he was grow-ing up.
Howard currently owns a white 2007 Mus-tang GT California Special con-vertible, but he has owned a number of project cars over the years, including several Chevy Corvairs. He is always willing to help anyone with car issues and in his spare time, completed an en-gine, transmission and engine bay restoration on a friend’s 1965 baby blue Mustang convertible, which took about four months. I can re-call once when the club was cara-vaning back from a car show near Orlando, Howard was following this 1965 Mustang because the gas gauge was not working. Good thing he did, because the classic car ran out of gas on route and Howard was right there to help get gas.
Howard, as a representative of the Ford dealership, was very in-strumental in getting the Mustang club started many years ago, along with Perry and Jackie Unger. He and his wife, Barbara, who is the club treasurer, are very active and supportive of the club.
Barb has held a number of posi-tions during her career and cur-rently works as a teacher’s aide. She is also a car enthusiast and has her own show car, which is a black 2001 SVT Cobra convertible Mustang — a real beauty. When
buying the car, she didn’t even check to see if the radio worked because she liked the sound of the exhaust so much. Barb’s Cobra re-cently scored Gold at the Mustang Club of America national show. Barb’s dad has been a motorcycle rider and car guy his whole life, so she didn’t stand a chance when she mar-ried Howard. Howard does all of the repairs,
maintenance and cleaning on the cars — Barb just drives them.
Howard and Barb moved from Buffalo, New York, to Florida in 1979, one month after their wed-ding, to escape the cold and snow. Howard says that cars do not last long in Buffalo as a result of the harsh winters and summer falls on the Fourth of July! They have lived in the Inverness area since 1999 and have two daughters, Ra-chel and Sarah. Both daughters will be getting married this fall a week apart — one at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs and one in Greece. This will be a real busy time for Howard and Barb attending both weddings.
They both love to drive their Mustangs to car shows and “Pony Rides.” They have attended many shows in Florida and have won a number of awards. Howard says that the best part of owning spe-cialty cars is the great people you meet who share this hobby and, he
also says, driving in a caravan of Mustangs through the beautiful Florida countryside on back roads to an awesome restaurant isn’t too bad. either.
CAR JOKEA man was driving down a coun-
try road when his car came to a sudden halt. As he lifted the hood to check the engine, a brown and white cow from an adjoining field lumbered over to the car and stuck her head under the hood next to the man’s. After a moment or two, the cow turned to the man and said: “Looks like a bad carbu-retor to me.” Then she walked back into the field and resumed her grazing.
Amazed, the man walked up to the farmhouse and asked the farmer: “Is that your cow in the field?” “The brown and white one? Yes, that’s old Buttercup.” “Well,” continued the man, “my car was broke down and she just said ‘Looks like a bad carburetor to me.’” The farmer shook his head and said: “Don’t mind old Buttercup. She don’t know a thing about cars.”
UPCOMING EVENTThe annual Beauties & Beasts
car and truck will be held at the Withlacoochee Technical College on State Road 44 in Inverness on Saturday, Oct. 6. The show is hosted by the Citrus Mopars car club and sponsored by Plaza Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM in In-verness. For more information, call me or Mike Bonadonna at 352-341-1019.

Frank McCourt, an author, wrote, “Every life is a mystery. There is nobody whose life is nor-mal and boring.”
There are few bridge deals that are normal and boring. In particu-lar, occasionally there are deals that look normal, but appearances are deceptive.
In this deal, South is in the most popular contract of three no-trump. West leads his
fourth-highest club, and East puts up the queen. How should South proceed?
Although five diamonds is a rea-sonable contract (but could go down, if declarer loses one dia-mond and two clubs), North’s jump to three no-trump is the percent-age action.
This week, we have been look-ing at avoidance play, with de-clarer trying to keep a particular opponent off the lead. This is an-other example, but it is tough.
South starts with seven top tricks: three spades, two hearts, one diamond and one club (given the first trick). It looks normal, after taking the first trick, to run the diamond 10. If the finesse wins, the contract will roll home with three overtricks. South will ask his partner why he was so cau-tious in the auction!
But what happens if the finesse loses?
Right — East returns a club, and if West started with five or six of them, the contract goes down.
Instead, declarer needs to real-ize that if the diamond finesse is working, he does not need to take it. At trick two, he should play a di-amond to dummy’s ace. In an ideal world, this will drop East’s single-ton king. But if his majesty does not appear, South continues dia-monds and hopes for the best.

8 p.m. on LMasters of Illusion
Being a half-hour in length, this show moves along efficiently, but it could seem even quicker if the title “The Fastest Illusion in the World ... and More!” holds true. Titou, Greg Frewin, Spidey, Billy Kidd, Jibrizy, Chris Randall, George Iglesias and Murray SawChuck are the featured magicians — and one
of them is likely to be pretty speedy. Dean Cain is the host.
9 p.m. on (SYFY)
Wynonna EarpDeck the halls with baying hell-hounds, fa-la-la-la-la... . Yes, the most wonderful time of the year has arrived in Purgatory, but that doesn’t mean Wyn-onna (Melanie Scrofano) can slack off on her demon-busting responsibilities in the new ep-isode “If We Make It Through December.” In fact, she has to team up with a new ally to search for a missing child on Christmas Day. Elsewhere, Waverly (Dominique Pro-vost-Chalkley) unwraps more revelations about her father.
9 p.m. on (TRAV)
The Dead FilesIn a new pop-up enhanced edition of the previously aired episode “Revealed: While the Children Sleep — Olympia, Washington,” a distraught moth-er summons Steve DiSchiavi and Amy Allan to investigate her claims that some paranormal creature is acting maliciously toward her children and elderly
mother. Amy has a psychic confrontation with the spirit of a bitter and hate-filled murder victim who won’t hesitate to eliminate anyone who gets in her way, while Steve learns of a related explosion that killed nearly a dozen people. Another new episode follows.
10 p.m. on (MAX)
OutcastAfter the harrowing fight to save Giles (Reg E. Cathey), Dr. Park (Hoon Lee) conceals the truth about Kyle’s (Patrick Fugit) con-dition from Reverend Anderson, Megan and Allison (Philip Glenis-ter, Wrenn Schmidt, Kate Lyn Sheil) in the new episode “Fire-flies.” Amber (Madeleine Mc-Graw), meanwhile, discovers that she shares some of her father’s uncanny abilities. Elsewhere, Sid-ney’s (Brent Spiner) unpredictable protege throws a wrench into his latest plan, and Rose (Charmin Lee) takes matters into her own hands after Giles quits the force.
10 p.m. on (SYFY)
KilljoysIn the new episode “Baby, Face Killer,” the members of Team
Awesome Force try to examine the memory that Khlyen (Rob Stewart) altered in Dutch’s (Hannah John-Kamen) mind, but doing so conjures up a deadly and completely relent-less assassin that proves to be a formidable adversary. Else-where, while Pree (Thom Al-lison) searches for his missing husband on Westerley, Zeph (Kelly McCormack) turns her focus on saving Pip (Atticus Mitchell) from a strange medi-cal complication.
11:30 p.m. on (HBO)
AnimalsIn a clever spin on George Orwell’s allegorical classic “Animal Farm,” the new ep-isode “Horses” is set in an equine community that is highly class-conscious. Prom-inent among its members, a rich horse’s daughter finds herself in a four-legged love triangle with a horsey suitor hoof-picked by her father and a working-class carriage horse from the wrong side of the tracks.

Dear Annie: I’m writing about my 53-year-old stepson, “Sam.” I
helped to raise Sam starting when he was 11. His first mom was murdered with a handgun a year before. He was already difficult as a younger child and already into drugs, including alcohol. Things got worse. My husband and I made mistakes, mostly on the side of enabling. We’ve got-ten some h e l p f u l counsel-ing and learned a lot from Al-Anon.
S a m did a lit-tle ther-apy years ago (some of it court- ordered) and used to go to Alcoholics Anonymous, but he doesn’t anymore. Too bad. AA helped him.
Sam is smart and kind and sensitive and tends to set him-self up to be exploited and codependent, perhaps as a way of buying friends. I ache to see his patterns change, but they are out of my control. A few years ago, he lost his house because he didn’t pay his mort-gage. His dad and I had bailed him out a couple of times, through loans that never got entirely paid back despite the written agreements and care-ful repayment schedules; the last time, he chose not to tell us he was ignoring the legal notices in the mail.
We don’t give him guilt trips about the money or mention it or even care, really. It’s cheaper than college would have been. But I’m sure he feels a lot of guilt. He’s a sensi-tive and principled guy.
Sam now lives in a sleazy ef-ficiency apartment about 10 minutes from us. At least it gives him some kind of com-munity. He is holding down a job, and things seem stable fi-nancially. But he has stopped returning his father’s texts asking him to get together for breakfast, and there’s been no acknowledgment of the birth-day check we mailed him last week. (This letter is not about wanting a thank-you note!) A couple of weeks ago, I got my son-in-law to call him and say, “Hey, phone your folks!” He did, and we had the usual up-beat chat. We made a breakfast date. But he ended up flaking on that.
My husband’s heart is qui-etly breaking. We aren’t de-manding a lot of Sam’s time, and we know it’s his life to live as best he can. But total non-communication has meant bad things in the past. I don’t want to have to go visit him in prison again.
My role these days is basi-cally nagging his dad to text him one more time. (My hus-band of 40-plus years is a truly wonderful man, but he’s the passive/denying one; I’m the doer/rescuer. That’s not a brag.) I don’t know whether ei-ther of us is willing to devote more time to Al-Anon or coun-seling. Our lives are getting shorter every day, and we’ve already poured a lot of emo-tional energy into the sink-hole. Should we keep trying to get Sam to respond? Or what? —Sad Stepmom
Dear Sad Stepmom: If it were that easy for you to de-tach from your stepson, you already would have. For most friends and family members of people with addiction, it’s dif-ficult to set boundaries with-out outside support. I encourage you to give Al-Anon another shot. I think you’ll find that it actually helps retrieve some of your emotional energy from the sinkhole. It’s great that you went before, but Al-Anon, like Alcoholics Anony-mous, is not a program you graduate from.
