NANCY KENNEDY Staff writer CRYSTAL RIVER — At 12 years old, Mandi (no last name) is a student at Crystal River Middle School. With green scaled skin, blue hair and pointy ears, she’s both a typical middle school student and atypical. Mandi, according to her creator, Shawn Surface, is a Nereid, a sea nymph, much like a mermaid. She can live both in and out of the water. “Mandi,” a comic book limited series due out this summer, follows a year in the life of Mandi as she learns to live as a “lander,” with friends, enemies, wor- ries and secrets just like any other girl her age, and so much more. “Kids don’t read books much any more, but they do read comic books,” Surface said in a telephone interview. “Mine has no harsh language or gory details or violence, al- though later in the series it takes a dark turn.” The artist/writer lives in Orlando. He said he chose Crystal River as a setting because it’s known for its rivers and waterways as well as being a sanctuary for manatees. Why a sea nymph? “I have a grown daughter, and she was one of the main inspirations behind this, and I wanted to leave some- thing for her,” he said. “I was also inspired by the ‘Lit- tle Mermaid’ and the movie ‘Lady in the Water’ that M. Night Shyamalan did years ago. Mandi is a mythological being, one of the daughters of a sea god named Nereus.” Surface said some think of comics as “nerd stuff,” but they have long been a way for artist/writers to tell their stories. “Comics are still big,” he said. Surface said he has been drawing ever since he could hold a pen and has been doing comics art since 2005. “I used to go to (comics) conventions like Megacon that’s here in Orlando as a regular customer,” he said. “Then I had some friends in- vite me to spend a weekend with them ‘on the other side of the table,’ put my shingle up and doodle on some paper — and people liked it and I started selling my art.” He said his usual way of drawing is pretty detailed, but he chose a more simple style for “Mandi.” “I chose to do Mandi in a more ‘cartoony’ style, with an Anime look to it, with big eyes and simple features, to appeal to a younger age group,” he said. “Also, to APRIL 29, 2014 Florida’s Best Community Newspaper Serving Florida’s Best Community 50 ¢ CITRUS COUNTY www.chronicleonline.com HIGH 88 LOW 68 Partly sunny with a 30 percent chance of rain.

Supporters of theFlorida bill stressed thateach school district wouldhave the choice to arm of-ficials if the measurepassed.

Under the legislation,the armed officials wouldhave to be former or cur-rent law enforcement offi-cers or former or currentmilitary officers. Theywould be required to passbackground screening, pos-sess a concealed weapon li-cense, and annually

participate in activeshooter training andfirearm proficiency train-ing. The bill also requiresschools to conduct activeshooter and hostage drills.Local law enforcementwould conduct the training.

through that door — some-body there armed to beable to (have a) properlytrained response to theshooter.”

TALLAHASSEE — Racing against theclock, Florida legislators have reached adeal on most of the spending that will beincluded in a new $75 billion statebudget.

House and Senate budget negotiatorsworked the entire weekend and did notpublicly agree to most spending itemsuntil a late-night session held at the Capi-tol right before midnight Sunday.

They agreed to pay raises for somestate workers, but not for the majority of

them. Legislators signed off on a proposalto boost spending on public school stu-dents, but still not enough to reach thelevels in place right before the recessionforced a wave of spending cuts.

There is also money in the budget tohire more child protective investigators,as well as money to help the state’s be-leaguered springs and to start workcleaning up and restoring Indian RiverLagoon. Excess water and pollution lev-els rose in the water body last year afterthe Army Corps of Engineers divertedwater away from Lake Okeechobee

during the rainy season.“I feel like it’s a really strong budget I

feel we can be proud of,” said Sen. JoeNegron, R-Stuart and the Senate budgetchief.

Left undone: School and college con-struction projects and details directingthe agencies how to spend the money.The budget needs to be on the desk of leg-islators by Tuesday in order to end thesession on time. Florida law requires a72-hour “cooling off” period before afinal vote is taken on the budget.

Florida legislators entered their

annual session with a projected $1.2 bil-lion surplus due to the state’s recoveringeconomy. The Republican-controlledLegislature has already passed a nearly$400 million rollback in annual auto reg-istration fees that was a top priority ofGov. Rick Scott.

Lawmakers plan to pass an additional$100 million in tax cuts this coming weekalthough a final agreement has not beenreached on that package. It appearslikely that legislators will at least endorsea three-day back-to-school sales tax holi-day for shoppers.

Legislative BRIEFSCraft beer bill ready

for Senate vote

A bill that would restricttake-home sales of cans, bot-tles and kegs of beer atFlorida breweries is ready fora Senate vote.

The bill was amended Mon-day over questions that itcould hurt breweries. The billwould allow bottle and cansales at breweries, but theywould be limited to no morethan 20 percent of the totalbeer production. The restric-tion wouldn’t apply to brew-eries that produce less than2,000 kegs of beer a year.

It also would restrict kegsales to one per person perday.

The benefit to brewers is aprovision that would legalizehalf-gallon refillable beer

containers that are the indus-try standard in 47 states.

The Florida Brewers Guildopposes the bill because cur-rently there are no limits onpackaged beer sales atbreweries.

Senate OKs billtargeting foreign laws

Foreign laws would bebanned in Florida courts forcertain family-related casesunder a bill the Senate sent tothe House on Monday.

The Senate voted 24-14 toapprove the proposal (SB386) by Umatilla RepublicanAlan Hays, who has pushedvarious versions of the meas-ure the past couple of years.

The current bill would re-strict courts and arbitration tri-bunals from applying foreignlaw and legal codes to

matters of divorce, alimony,division of marital assets,child support and childcustody.

The bill has been criticizedas anti-Muslim and targeted atSharia religious law followedin some Islamic countries.

The Florida chapter of theCouncil on American-IslamicRelations sent letters to Re-publican lawmakers on April 7asking them to reject the billthey claim is intended to “mar-ginalize” American Muslimand other minoritycommunities.

Flood insurancebill gets OK

After homeowners receiveda major scare about rate in-creases, the Florida House onMonday approved a bill aimedat drawing more private

insurers to write flood-insur-ance coverage in the state.House members voted 98-11to approve the bill (SB 542).The Senate approved the billearlier, but the measure willhave to return to the Senatebecause of changes made inthe House. Lawmakers beganlooking for ways to expandprivate coverage after it ap-peared that tens of thousandsof Florida homeowners couldget hit with massive increasesunder the National Flood In-surance Program.

While Congress has allevi-ated those concerns, statelawmakers have continuedworking on the issue. Housesponsor Ed Hooper, R-Clear-water, questioned whether thefederal government and Con-gress would take care offlood-insurance needs.

an email to Florida Attor-ney General Pam Bondi,saying the Gilberts areguilty of misapplication offunds.

Bondi forwarded theemail to the State Attor-ney’s Office, where itlanded with Assistant StateAttorney Mark Simpson,who oversees such cases.

Simpson said provingfraud or theft cases withcontractors is just aboutimpossible without prov-ing that the builder used acustomer’s funds for per-sonal gain.

“At this point we haveno proof,” he said.

Simpson said the statelien law, which holdsproperty owners liable forpayments to subcontrac-tors and suppliers, leaves

little room for prosecutingbuilders who don’t paytheir bills.

“I have to prove atheft,” he said. “In con-tracting that’s very hard todo.”

The reason is that oncea customer pays thebuilder, unless thosefunds are deposited intoan account specifically setup to make payments onhis house, the builder canuse the money for anybusiness purpose — evenif it’s not associated withthat specific project.

“What did they do withthat money?” Simpson

said. “If it’s for businesspurposes, you’ve got a deadloser on your hands.”

CHICAGO — RashadHarden, a house musicand footwork pioneer whoperformed as DJ Rashad,was found dead this week-end of an apparent drugoverdose, authorities saidSunday. He was 34.

Chicago Police spokes-woman Janel Sedevic saida friend found Harden’sbody Saturday afternoonin an apartment on thecity’s West Side. There wasno sign of injury but nar-cotics and drug parapher-nalia were found near hisbody, she said. An autopsywas conducted Sunday butthe Cook County MedicalExaminer’s Office said it iswaiting for the results oftoxicology tests to deter-mine a cause of death.

Harden’s death comesjust days before his EPwas scheduled for releaseand less than a monthafter fellow house musicstar Frankie Knuckles alsodied in the city.

Harden, a resident ofCalumet City, was poisedfor a breakout year, ac-cording to the ChicagoSun-Times. His fifth albumreceived his best reviews,he was scheduled to playclubs all over the worldand his latest EP, “We On1,” was scheduled to be re-leased Monday.

“It’s just a tragic loss of agreat musical genius,” saidlongtime friend and col-laborator Morris Harper,who performs as DJ Spinnand who was scheduled toappear with Rashad in De-troit on Saturday night.

Rashad was considereda pioneer of footwork — anelectronic-oriented musicgenre that originated inChicago. Once known asjuke, footwork is namedfor its quick dance movesand is known for whatRolling Stone calls a “fren-zied and hypnotic style ofdance music that featuresheart-racing BPMs and,often, chopped-up loops ofpopular rap, R&B and popvocals.”

NEW YORK — It was achoppy ride for the stockmarket on Monday thatended with major U.S. in-dexes closing mostlyhigher.

Traders were pulled inmultiple directions. Stocksopened higher, fell in theafternoon, and then roseagain in the last hour oftrading.

Bank stocks fell afterBank of America said a fi-nancial error would forceit to cancel its stock buy-back plan and dividend in-crease, while health-carestocks rose after U.S. druggiant Pfizer renewed itspursuit of a merger withBritish rival AstraZeneca.Formerly highflying tech-nology stocks fell again,dragging the Nasdaq com-posite index into the red.

The Standard & Poor’s500 index rose 6.03 points,or 0.3 percent, to close at1,869.43. The Dow Jonesindustrial average rose87.28 points, or 0.5 percent,to 16,448.74 and the Nas-daq edged down 1.16points, or 0.03 percent, to4,074.40. The Nasdaqerased most of a 61-pointloss.

Bank of America sank$1.00, or 6.3 percent, to$14.95 after it unexpect-edly announced it wouldsuspend its stock buybackprogram and dividend in-crease. The bank discov-ered an error in how itcalculates its capital ratio,a crucial measure of a

bank’s financial strength.The Federal Reserveasked the bank to put itsbuyback and dividend in-crease on hold until theerror was fixed.

Goldman Sachs and Cit-igroup each 1 percent fol-lowing BofA’sannouncement. JPMorganChase edged down0.4 percent.

High-risk technologystocks were another areaof weakness Monday as in-vestors continue to cuttheir exposure to high-growth names and turntheir focus to larger divi-dend-paying companies.Amazon fell $7.25, or 2.5percent, to $296.58 afterfalling 10 percent on Fri-day. Netflix lost $7.87, or2.4 percent, to $314.21 andFacebook fell $1.57, or 2.7percent, to $56.14.

In contrast, “old” tech-nology companies such asMicrosoft, Apple and IBM,

which have more maturebusinesses and pay quar-terly dividends, rose 2 per-cent or more Monday.

High-growth technologyand biotechnology stockshave been falling for sev-eral weeks now. The Nas-daq is down 3 percent inApril, while the S&P 500and Dow are roughly flat.

Traders say the sellinghas been coming fromlarge investors, who havebeen moving out of high-growth stocks and intosafer investments. TheRussell 2000, an indexmade up mostly of smallercompanies, is down nearly5 percent this month.

“When you have somany investors doing thesame thing at the sametime, you get these exag-gerated moves in some ofthese stocks,” said IanWiner, director of equitytrading at WedbushSecurities.

Business BRIEFS

Toyota moving US basefrom California to Texas

TORRANCE, Calif. — Toyota is moving itsU.S. headquarters from California to Texas toget closer to its Midwest assembly plants andimprove communication between units nowspread over several states.

Toyota will break ground this year on a newenvironmentally-friendly headquarters inPlano, Texas, about 25 miles north of Dallas.Small groups of employees will start moving totemporary office space there this year, butmost will not move until late 2016 or early2017 when a new headquarters is completed.

The new campus will bring together approx-imately 4,000 employees from sales, market-ing, engineering, manufacturing and finance.That includes 2,000 employees at the currentheadquarters in Torrance, Calif.; 1,000 em-ployees at Toyota Financial Services, which isalso in California; and 1,000 employees fromToyota’s engineering and manufacturing cen-ter in Erlanger, Ky.

Toyota also plans to expand its technicalcenter near Ann Arbor, Mich., and move ap-proximately 250 parts procurement positionsthere from Georgetown, Ky., where the Camryand Avalon sedans are made. That will free upspace for approximately 300 production engi-neers to move from Erlanger to Georgetown.

Jim Lentz, Toyota’s CEO for North America,said the new headquarters will enable fasterdecision making. It’s one of the most signifi-cant changes in Toyota’s 57-year history in theU.S., Lentz told The Associated Press.

“We needed to be much more collabora-tive,” said Lentz.

Larry Dominique, the president of ALG, anautomotive consulting and forecasting firm,said Texas is a cheaper place to do businessthan California, which has higher corporatetaxes and more onerous work rules like paidfamily leave.

Toyota has had a presence in Californiasince 1957, when it opened its first U.S. head-quarters in a former Rambler dealership inHollywood. The following year — Toyota’s firstin the U.S. market — it sold 287 ToyopetCrown sedans and one Land Cruiser.

New solar installation ruleslikely to raise costs

HONOLULU — A Hawaii state board has is-sued new rules for solar panel installation thatwill require journeyman electricians to do moreof the work. That move is expected to raisethe costs of installing the panels.

The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported thatthe Board of Electricians and Plumbers will re-quire that electricians handle bonding andgrounding the system. Those are safetymeasures that keep people from gettingshocked by diverting current into the earth.

Solar energy systems contractors havehandled that step. Leslie Cole-Brooks, the ex-ecutive director of the Hawaii Solar Energy As-sociation, said solar panels are now madesuch that an electrician isn’t needed to groundand bond the systems safely. She said therules change will make installations slowerand more expensive.

Labor secretary announcesnew job grants to states

WASHINGTON — Labor Secretary ThomasE. Perez said the government is making afresh $150 million installment to a federal

program to help train workers who have losttheir jobs in high-demand industries throughno fault of their own.

Perez told reporters on Monday that statescan apply for grants ranging from $500,000 to$6 million so they may, in his words, “connectjob-seekers with well-paying jobs so they canreturn to the workplace.”

It brings federal spending on related pro-grams to roughly $1 billion over just the pastthree months.

General Dynamics secures$17.65 billion contract

GROTON, Conn. — General Dynamicssays it has secured a $17.65 billion contract tobuild submarines for the U.S. Navy.

The company said Monday that its sub-sidiary Electric Boat will be responsible forbuilding 10 additional Virginia-class sub-marines as part of the agreement. It plans tobuild two ships per year for the next five yearswith the help of its partner Newport NewsShipbuilding, a unit of Huntington IngallsIndustries.

Electric Boat and Newport News Shipbuild-ing already have delivered 10 of these sub-marines to the Navy, and eight additionalsubmarines are under construction.

Shares of General Dynamics Corp., based inFalls Church, Va., closed at $107.39, down$1.62. Shares of Huntington Ingalls, based inNewport News, Va., closed at $99.08, down$1.48.

Microsoft warns of InternetExplorer security gap

REDMOND, Wash. — Microsoft says a se-curity gap in Internet Explorer could allow anattacker to take complete control of a com-puter if the user clicks on a malicious link.

The vulnerability affects versions 6 through11 of the Web browser.

Microsoft Corp. said Saturday it was awareof “limited, targeted attacks” that tried to ex-ploit the security gap. The company is workingon a fix which it plans to provide in a softwareupdate on May 13.

In the meantime, Microsoft encourages cus-tomers to enable a firewall, apply all softwareupdates and install anti-malware software.

Google: Driverless cars aremastering city streets

LOS ANGELES — Google says cars it hasprogrammed to drive themselves have startedto master the navigation of city streets and thechallenges they bring, from jaywalkers toweaving bicyclists — a critical milestone forany commercially available self-driving cartechnology.

Despite the progress over the past year, thecars have plenty of learning to do before 2017,when the Silicon Valley tech giant hopes to getthe technology to the public.

None of the traditional automakers hasbeen so bullish. Instead, they have rolled outfeatures incrementally, including technologythat brakes and accelerates in stop-and-gotraffic or keeps cars in their lanes.

Google’s self-driving cars already can navi-gate freeways comfortably, albeit with a driverready to take control. In a new blog post, theproject’s leader said test cars now can handlethousands of urban situations that would havestumped them a year or two ago.

Avante staff exemplary in its care

My 94-year-old mother Dottierecently spent three months atAvante at Inverness Rehabilita-tion Hospital, recovering from abroken thigh bone and subse-quent surgery. Although Momlives in Fort Lauderdale andhad her surgery there this pastChristmas, I felt it was best tohave her rehabilitation closer towhere I live, here in CitrusCounty. There are many localchoices for rehab hospitals, andsince I was unfamiliar withthese facilities, I turned to theInternet for some help.

My research revealed thatAvante at Inverness receivedthe highest possible rating (5out of 5 stars) given by US Newsand World Report, one of thefew rehab centers in CitrusCounty to achieve such a dis-tinction. This top ranking andthe facility’s location across thestreet from Citrus Memorialhospital were crucial in mychoice of Avante. (http//health.usnews.com/best-nursing-homes/area/fl/avante-at-inverness-inc-105308)

My initial impression ofAvante was that of a small,

somewhat worn facility. Privaterooms are rare and the foodserved can best be described asadequate. From day one, how-ever, I noted that the patientrooms, bathrooms and commonareas were kept in an ex-tremely clean condition. An ad-ditional initial plus was thecompetence and professional-ism exhibited by the adminis-trators and admissions officers.

Perhaps most importantly, Iwish to comment on the staff atAvante.

I am a retired physician andmy wife is a retired nurse. Weboth have worked and trainedin Harvard-affiliated hospitalsin Boston, which are often con-sidered to be the world’s “med-ical mecca” for exemplarycare. But we have come to rec-ognize over our career life-times that patient outcomesare not determined by thename on the front door of thefacility or the amenities in thevisitors’ lounge. Physical andmental improvement is mostdirectly influenced by the indi-vidual care that is given at thebedside, and additionally inmy mother’s case, in the Physi-cal Therapy Department. It isin these areas where Avante

truly shines and justifies itsfive-star rating. Words such asintelligent, caring, compas-sionate, friendly, competent,responsive and attentive cometo mind in describing theAvante staff. Their mood is un-usually upbeat with lots ofsmiles and laughter. A patientreceiving an occasional hugand kiss on the cheek is not ararity. Regular activities andentertainment often make thepatients forget they are in a re-habilitation hospital.

To the residents of CitrusCounty, we wish to point outthis hidden gem right here inyour “back yard.”

To the administrators, ad-missions officers, registerednurses, licensed practicalnurses, certified nursing aides,physical therapists, occupa-tional therapists, kitchen staff,social worker, maintenanceworkers and others at Avanteof Inverness, I salute you andgive you heartfelt thanks fromour entire family. My mother,Dottie, has benefited greatlyfrom your personal efforts.

Recently Hillary Clintongave what appeared atfirst to be a rambling

and unfocused answer whenasked to name the proudestachievement of her four yearsas Secretary of State. The shortversion is, she doesn’t have one.But Clinton’s words make a lotmore sense whenseen not as a non-answer to a specificquestion, but as aneffort to lay the foun-dation and establisha theme for a presi-dential campaign.

The occasion washer appearance on apanel discussion atthe “Women in theWorld” meeting inManhattan. It waspretty easy going; themoderator, New YorkTimes columnist ThomasFriedman, asked softball aftersoftball. (Sample: Noting Clin-ton’s daughter Chelsea, Fried-man asked: “What have youlearned from her?”)

Toward the end, Friedmanturned to Clinton and said:“When you look at your time asSecretary of State, what are youmost proud of, and what do youfeel was unfinished, maybe loveto have another crack at someday?”

Clinton and the audiencelaughed, because “anothercrack at someday” seemed anobvious back-door way of ask-ing whether Clinton will run forpresident in 2016. But then sheanswered, and revealed some-thing critically important abouther intentions.

“Look, I really see my role assecretary, and in fact, leadershipin general in a democracy, as arelay race,” Clinton said. “Imean, you run the best race youcan run, you hand off the baton.Some of what hasn’t been fin-

ished may go on to be finished ...”The answer seemed to con-

cede that there is no single, mo-mentous thing Clinton canpoint to as having achieved dur-ing her years as the nation’s topdiplomat. As she went on, Clin-ton instead linked herself toPresident Obama’s achieve-

ments — at least theDemocratic versionof them — not in thefield of foreign af-fairs, but at home.

“We had the worsteconomic crisissince the Great De-pression, we had twowars, we had contin-uing threats from allkinds of cornersaround the world,”Clinton said. Obamatold her his top pri-ority had to be deal-

ing with the economic crisis, sohe asked her to “represent usaround the world.”

Clinton’s job was to “make itclear to the rest of the world thatwe were going to get our housein order.” But what did “inorder” mean? Clinton describedit this way: “We were going tostimulate and grow and get backto positive growth and work withour friends and partners.”

On the basis of that “stimu-late and grow” policy, Clintoncontinued, the United States re-turned to strength and can nowdeal with foreign crises likeUkraine without having toworry about a world economiccollapse. “I think we really re-stored American leadership inthe best sense,” she said. “That,you know, once again, peoplebegan to rely on us, to look at usas, you know, setting the values,setting the standards.”

Clinton promised to provide“a lot of particulars” in her up-coming memoir, due in June.But those last few words are

likely to be the book’s message:She restored American leader-ship. Without any landmarkachievement, she will claimcredit — along with the presi-dent, of course — for restoringAmerica’s place in the world.

It’s a vague and highly debat-able argument. And in the end,at the “Women in the World”gathering, Clinton seemed torely mostly on the Obama ad-ministration’s domestic accom-plishments — or at least herversion of them — to shore upthe case for her performance asSecretary of State. That ispretty much a non sequitur.

But in a larger sense, the“relay race” image may turn outto be the key to Hillary Clinton’srun for president. The cam-paign theme is pretty easy tosketch out. Her husband, Presi-dent Bill Clinton, took the batonand ran with it, starting a pe-riod of great Americanprogress. President George W.Bush dropped it, disastrously,but then Barack Obama pickedup the Clinton baton and ledAmerica to recovery. Now it’stime to pass the baton yet again.Should American voters give itto another Republican, whowill surely mess things up likeBush, or should they hand it toHillary Clinton, who will con-tinue the magnificent work herhusband began more than 20 years ago?

The “relay race” theme al-lows Hillary Clinton to surf onher husband’s and her old boss’accomplishments, reachingmany years into the past, with-out showcasing her own lack-luster record. For Democrats, itwill be a happy story. For every-one else, it could be a hard sell.

RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES

On conservation,Crystal River is

outdoing the stateYou rise with the sun,

glad for another day.You get the coffee

started and head outside topick up the paper. Walkingdown the driveway, you feelsummer surround you imme-diately. It’s August, and it willbe 90 by noon. You surveyyour lawn, note the brownpatches, curse the wateringrestrictions andhope for rain. Asyou pick up thepaper, a headlinecatches your eye:“Well permitcauses concern.”

Back at thetable, you readthat the managerof the nearby na-tional wildliferefuge is scratch-ing his head overthe water man-agement district’sissuance of awithdrawal per-mit that’s going toallow a Marion County com-pany to pull 76,700 gallons ofwater a day out of the aquiferfrom a site in Crystal River tosell to a bottler at a timewhen, amid a two-yeardrought, flows to rivers andsprings are steadily declin-ing. As you read on, it getsworse: It’s a 10-year permit,the withdrawals won’t be me-tered, and the permit cost thecompany less than yourmonthly water bill.

You look back at your lawn.Now you’re angry.

If it seems unfair, that’s be-cause it is. For decades now,the drivers of state water pol-icy have been urging and en-forcing conservation byhomeowners while simulta-neously permitting privatecompanies to pull tens of mil-lions of gallons from theaquifer. In the same breath,water management districtstell you how important it is tofollow watering restrictions,set up rain barrels and uselow-flow fixtures and appli-ances and they tell you that

these permits aren’t cause forconcern and that their envi-ronmental impact is negligi-ble. If that seemsinconsistent, that’s because itis: The folks employed by thedistrict know very well thatthose kinds of permits are ir-responsible, but they don’thave the authority to deny therequests because state law

mandates ap-proval based onthe company’sfulfillment ofminimal criteria.

If that doesn’tinspire you toconserve water,we’re not sur-prised. Just as weall share thewater that flowsbeneath us, we allshare a stake inits stewardship. Ifwe’re seriousabout the need topreserve our nat-ural resources,

it’s going to take more thanthe efforts of individuals: It’sgoing to take government ac-tion, especially at the statelevel. Until state agenciesstart treating commercial useof water as we do residentialuse of water — and thatmeans metering, monitoringand realistic pricing — we’re only flirting with responsibility.

To that end, here’s some-thing that should inspire you:Crystal River is bucking thetide. The city is set to breakground on a pipeline that’sgoing to pump nearly a mil-lion gallons of reclaimedwater a day to Duke Energy’scomplex north of town, spar-ing the company the need topull that water from theground. It’s a project that re-minds us that while most ofus are powerless to circum-vent the misguided state poli-cies that force watermanagement districts toissue permits they knowcounteract their mission,we’re not helpless.

THE ISSUE:Crystal River well

plan will significantly

reduce groundwater

withdrawals byDuke Energy.

OUR OPINION:City’s effortslaudable and

necessary, butnot enough.

LETTER to the Editor

Elected to spendThe people of Citrus County

do not recognize that the BOCChas been paid for years to sit onchairs so they can spend thou-sands of dollars to buy newones.

Any decisions thatthey need to make, theyhire someone else tomake them. If the peo-ple of Citrus County donot realize this, they arenot well educated inthis field.

I’m not saying they’restupid; I’m just sayingthey are not educatedunder these circum-stances and it’s abouttime people started paying attention.

Speed up and signalIt’s almost amusing to read

some of these articles in thepaper on Sound Off. But the onethat really got my attention wasthe one that wrote on “Danger-ous roads,” claiming that(County Road) 491 in BeverlyHills is a speedway now and

people are doing 70 mph. I guess I’d like to know how

they’re clocking. Do they have adevice to do that? The policeand state troopers are the onlyones that’s supposed to be ableto do that.

But there’s a lot ofpeople that ride thatleft lane that are notmaking a left turn.They’re driving veryslow — and I’ll let youguess their age — andthey block it so youdon’t know if they’regoing to pull to theright or what they’regoing to do. Peopleshould stay on one sideof the road, allow a

passing lane, as it was designedoriginally, and if they have tomake a turn, that’s what a turnsignal on a car is for.

And probably 90 percent ofthe people in this county don’teven know what that stick is forbeside the steering wheel —probably just to hang their key-chain on. But if you make a sig-nal to properly turn, you’d haveno problem at all.

THE CHRONICLE invites you to call “Sound Off” with your opinions about local or statewide subjects. You do not need to leave your name, and have less than a minute to record.

I detected recently, arise in discontent with thedecisions affecting ourcounty.

Though thereare many complaints, fewsolutions or causes havesurfaced. A “cause and ef-fect” situation with the“cause” absent.

A few weeks ago when Iread the Chronicle specialon the new and influentialEconomic DevelopmentCouncil, I felt a vacuumforming. I support theconcept, but not the unin-tended consequences.

The article listed by pri-ority, in bold-face type,what is commonly referredto as “purpose” or goals,priorities. Can you remem-ber No. 1? Never mind, Idon’t either, but I do knowwhat was not No. 1.

“Our goal is first andforemost to research,record and commit to ad-dressing the existing, cur-rent needs and wants ofthe community taxpayerresidents.”

If you look at the ques-tionable expenses thathave caused the public torise in protest, they aremostly, if not all, expensesto favor the future resi-dents or visitors to ourcounty, not necessarilywhat our current resi-dents first need and want.

Space allowing, I couldenumerate the illogicaldecisions as viewed bythe taxpayers, though notnecessarily by the localgovernment or the BOCC.Sugarmill Woods is an ex-ample: Those in powerwill consider allowing theconstruction of homes forsome 5,000 people (manyin another county) who in15 or 20 years will be onthe tax rolls, while thecurrent residents who

have been paying taxesfor maybe decades arethen in their graves. Andin the process, this messyconstruction and destruc-tive traffic simultaneouslyruins these residents’street landscape and low-ers property values in theprocess. A Perfect Storm.I don’t live in SugarmillWoods, but taxpayers, Cit-rus County’s customers,do. Find another way.

The tollway extensionhas robbed our attentionfor beyond 10 years. Advo-cates fought long and hard,but through attrition thefight has waned. Most folkswho moved to our county10 to 15 years ago did notcome praying that a tollroad would someday serv-ice their grandchildren.How many hours and dol-lars have been wasted byeverybody on this futuris-tic gift to mankind? Thestate will decide.

It may appear to somethat county prioritieshave shifted to a grandscheme often given in re-turn for a “study” (citizenexpense) that may notparallel our communitypriorities. We used to bedescribed, not compli-mentarily, as “a sleepy lit-tle fishing village.” Thereare many who escapedChicago or Detroit orMiami and sought a“sleepy little village.”

I believe most citizenscan tolerate some growth.Many know it is impossi-ble to hide our gem fromthe crowds. Many wonderif we have to lure them,cajole them, bribe them toshare, and maybe con-sume, our Shangri-La.

If it needs explanation,the message here is pro-tect, repair and respectthe needs of county citi-zens first. Protect us fromintruders who will rob usof our tax-paid-for rightsand services. Stand bySugarmill Woods. And,here is a zinger — reviveBeverly Hills. How couldyou not? The BOCC hopesit will go away — it needslife support! Why wouldwe allow a ghetto to growin the center of ourcounty? It will be that ifthe county does not step

up with a plan to reviveBeverly Hills. I don’t livethere either, but a lot ofdeserving residents do.

Maintain GOP control

Recently I observed agroup of political panelistsdiscussing the reluctanceof some states to take thefederal funding for Medi-caid. “After all,” they said“the money is entirelyfree.” All panelists agreed.Obviously, no thought wasgiven to their statements.“Free” is never free.Someone always pays.

In this case, as in manycases, that money is ei-ther borrowed or createdwith Federal Reservenotes. Either way, taxpay-ing individuals pay, sincetheir earnings are dilutedwhenever the federal gov-ernment distributes dol-lars it does not have.

The bigger issue here iswhat happens to thestates when the federalgovernment changes therules or when the subsidyexpires. Once the pro-gram in instituted, thestates could be in a realbind if the feds renege.How many times have therules been changed in re-gard to health insurance(often called health care)in the past few months?

Obamacare is here tostay unless it totally de-stroys our economy. In themeantime, the administra-tion is going to greatlengths in an effort to keepirresponsible elected offi-cials in office. If the Ameri-can people do not wake upthis year and force achange, we may neverhave a chance to recover.

This year, assuring Re-publican control of theSenate and maintainingRepublican control of theHouse is the best hope wehave. Then it will be up tothe voting public to insistthat the new Congressgive us truly responsibleleadership.

Grimm said the govern-ment framed him. He saidinvestigators couldn’t makea campaign finance caseagainst him stick, so theytrumped up the fraud accu-sations. He said he is thevictim of a “political witchhunt.”

Grimm is a former FBIagent who left the bureau inthe mid-2000s. He waselected in 2010.

Storms rip throughMidwest, South

Associated Press

JACKSON, Miss. — Authori-ties in Mississippi said at leastone person died and dozens ofpeople were injured a tornadooutbreak Monday.

Lee County Coroner CarolynGillentine Green said a womandied in a traffic accident duringthe storm in Verona, south ofTupelo. Green said the vehiclemay have been blown off of Pal-metto Road or hydroplaned.

The victim was not immedi-ately identified.

University of MississippiMedical Center spokesmanJack Mazurak said at least 45people were injured in WinstonCounty. The medical center is acommunications hub for emer-gencies set up after HurricaneKatrina struck in 2005.

Evacuations were underwayat the Winton Medical Center,which was heavily damaged.No deaths were reported there,but at least six patients werebeing taken to hospitals inColumbus, Mazurak said.

Deborah Pugh, spokes-woman for the Northeast Mis-sissippi Medical Center inTupelo, said the hospital ad-mitted 24 patients. She said 20 had minor injuries and wereexpected to be treated and re-leased. Four others were un-dergoing further evaluation.

Gov. Phil Bryant earlier inthe day declared a state ofemergency in advance of theexpected bad weather.

In Georgia, forecasters is-sued a tornado watch Mondaythat included 17 counties innorthwest Georgia. The tor-nado watch was set to expire at3 a.m. Tuesday.

Forecasters earlier Mondayevening also issued a tornadowarning for Coweta, Meri-wether, Troup and Heard coun-ties in western Georgia.

In Arkansas, a half-mile-widetornado carved an 80-mile pathof destruction through the Lit-tle Rock suburbs Sundayevening, killing at least 15 peo-ple, flattening rows of homes,shredding cars along a highwayand demolishing a brand-newschool before it even had achance to open.

Officials said the death tollcould have been worse if resi-dents hadn’t piled into under-ground storm shelters andfortified safe rooms after lis-tening to forecasts on TV andradio, getting cellphone alertsor calls or texts from lovedones, and hearing sirens blarethrough their neighborhoods.

Also on people’s minds: mem-ories of a weaker tornado thatsmashed through on April 25,2011. It took nearly the same pathand killed at least four people.

“You had people breakingdown because they were reliv-ing three years ago,” KimberStandridge said of the scene in-side the community shelter,which she said was packed with

perhaps more than 100 people.Standridge and a friend had

gathered up seven childrenthey were watching and spedthrough the streets just minutesbefore the twister hit.

“When they shut the doors,we knew it was on us,” Stan-dridge said. “Everybody hun-kered down. There were a lot ofpeople doing prayer circles,holding hands and praying.”

Caro and Standridge said theshelter was so solid they barely

felt or heard the tornado.It was among a rash of twisters

and violent storms across theMidwest and South that killed 17people in all on Sunday.

With forecasters warning ofmore of the same Mondayacross the South, a large tor-nado damaged homes anddowned trees and power linesaround Tupelo, Miss. Therewere no immediate reports ofany injuries.

Most of the dead in Arkansas

were killed in their homes inand around Vilonia, population3,800. Firefighters on Mondaysearched for anyone trappedamid the piles of splinteredwood and belongings strewnacross yards. Hospitals took inmore than 100 patients.

The tornado that hit the townand nearby Mayflower wasprobably the nation’s strongestso far this year on the 0-to-5 EFscale, with the potential to be atleast an EF3, which meanswinds greater than 136 mph,National Weather Service me-teorologist Jeff Hood said.

It wrecked cars and trucksalong Interstate 40 north of Lit-tle Rock. Also among the ruinswas a new $14 million interme-diate school that had been setto open this fall.

Survey:China

WASHINGTON —Just as the global econ-omy has all but recov-ered from debt-fueledcrises in the UnitedStates and Europe,economists have a newworry: China. They see alending bubble therethat threatens globalgrowth unless Beijingdefuses it.

That’s the view thatemerges from an Associ-ated Press survey thismonth of 30 economists.Still, the economists re-main optimistic that Bei-jing’s high-stakes driveto reform its economy —the world’s second-largest — will bolsterChinese banks, ease thelending bubble and ben-efit U.S. exporters in thelong run.

The source of concernis a surge in lending byChinese banks. Thelending was initially en-couraged by the govern-ment during the 2008global financial crisis tofuel growth.

On Monday, the Inter-national Monetary Fundissued a warning aboutChina’s private debt. Itreleased a report citing“rising vulnerabilities”in China’s financial sys-tem, including lendingoutside traditionalbanks. Lending by that“shadow” banking sys-tem now equals one-quarter of China’seconomy, the reportsaid.

Ukraine mayor shot,protestors attacked

Football career continues for Citrus’ ClarkHurricane fullback signswith Point University

C.J. RISAKCorrespondent

Like so many of his Citrus High School foot-ball teammates (six have signed thus far), Ja-vian Clark wanted to keep playing. And nowhe will — for the Point University Skyhawks.

An NAIA school and a member of the Ap-palachian Athletic Conference, Point (locatedin West Point, Georgia) will provide Clarkwith the platform he wants.

“They’re a Christian college and I wantedto go to a smaller school,” Clark said. “Just be-cause of the smaller classes, and I didn’t wantto get overwhelmed, I wanted to get a feel forthe school.”

What Clark — a 5-foot-9, 185-pound fullback— gave Citrus was an inside threat, a runner

who could pound the ball up the middle, be-tween the tackles, with the leg drive to turn asmall gain into a big one. That’s somethingClark did well: In his senior season, he gained565 yards rushing, the second-highest total onthe team.

But perhaps more impressive was his 6.1yards per carry average.

“He’s going to be an excellent player forthem because he fits their program verywell,” former Citrus assistant coach ChrisStephenson said. “What they do, that’s whathe does best. He’s an excellent blocker, hecatches the ball out of the backfield, and he’s

Heat finish sweep of Bobcats

NBA schedulesnews conference

for todayAssociated Press

Outrage over racist commentspurportedly made by embattledLos Angeles Clippers owner Don-ald Sterling hit a crescendo Mon-day, with corporations pulling theirsponsorship deals with the teamand coach Doc Rivers saying he be-lieves “a verystrong message” iscoming from theNBA in responseto the scandal.

That messagewill come today,when NBA Com-missioner AdamSilver holds anews conferencein New Yorkwhere he could re-veal sanctions theleague will imposeon Sterling.

A suspension of indefinite lengthand hefty fine — Silver can issueone of up to $1 million without ap-proval of owners — are possibleoptions. However, it remains un-clear how far Silver’s powers canreach at this point, even though theNBA constitution gives the com-missioner’s office a lot of latitudeto protect the game’s best interest.

Many players simply want Ster-ling ousted, with Lakers star KobeBryant tweeting he “should notcontinue owning the clippers.”

“It needs to be handled in theright way,” Rivers said. “I don’teven know what the right way is. Ihave a hunch. But I don’t know.”

The Clippers had Monday off,with Rivers saying he wanted histeam to try and regroup mentallyafter a whirlwind weekend whereSterling’s alleged comments wererevealed, first by TMZ and then inanother recording posted on Dead-spin. The NBA has not said if it wasable to authenticate the tapes, butSterling’s wife told KABC-TV inLos Angeles that it was her hus-band on the recordings.

Rivers, who has declined achance to speak with his boss, be-lieves Sterling is on the tape.

“I can’t tell you how upset I am,”Rivers said.

It’s simple, really. Keep doing what youdo best, but do it better if possible, andsee what happens.

For Belleview’s softball team, thatmeans hitting the ball and turning singlesinto doubles and doubles into triples.That’s what the Rattlers, with a team bat-ting average over .400, do best.

And Crystal River? The 14-13 Pirateshave gotten this far with timely hitting,solid defense and just enough pitching.

The two teams face off tonight at 7 p.m.in Crystal River in a Class 5A Regionalsemifinal battle.

“We need to keep doing what we havebeen doing,” Crystal River coach Cassidy

Rash said. “Our pitching has been doinggreat, our defense has been awesomeand the combination is why we havebeen successful. We need to keep singlesto singles and not allow extra bases onthese hits.”

And that is what the Rattlers are soadept at. The 23-5 Belleview team fea-tures five hitters with at least 70 at-batswho are hitting better than .400, four ofthem have more than 20 runs batted inand each of them have scored more than20 runs. Alexis Day, a junior, leads theteam with a .509 average, with six dou-bles, nine triples, seven home runs, 28RBI and 50 runs scored.

She’s joined on this potent offense byfellow juniors Alex Suzuki (.427, 14 dou-bles, five homers, 38 RBI, 27 runs) and

Aimee Oglesby (.488, 14 doubles, threetriples, one homer, 32 RBI, 30 runs) andsophomores Rachel Knowles (.449, sevendoubles, one homer, 18 RBI and 36 runs)and Rachel Phelps (.494, eight doubles,one homer, 22 RBI and 23 runs).

Five others with a minimum of 25 at-bats are hitting better than .300.

Freshman Jamie Adams handles thepitching for the Rattlers, and she’s donequite well. She’ll be going after her 20thwin of the season against Crystal River —she’s 19-3 — and she’s posted a 1.65earned run average with 61 strikeoutsand 45 walks in 123 1/3 innings.

Braves’ new-look rotation thriving in first monthLead majors with

combined 1.57 ERAAssociated Press

ATLANTA — As they entered the season,the Atlanta Braves were hoping to justhang on through the first month while theywaited for Mike Minor and Gavin Floyd tojoin a depleted rotation.

Instead, manager Fredi Gonzalez faces adifferent problem for the Braves, who wereoff on Monday: How does he make room foranother arm in a rotation enjoying the ma-jors’ best opening month in 100 years?

There’s no weak link as the starters’ 1.57ERA easily leads the majors.

The rotation was a big question afterTim Hudson and Paul Maholm departed asfree agents. The issue reached crisis stagewhen Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachyneeded season-ending Tommy John sur-geries in spring training.

Veterans Ervin Santana and Aaron Ha-rang have joined Julio Teheran and AlexWood as the staff’s new leaders on the first-place Braves.

Minor, who was a projected top starter, isexpected to come off the disabled list thisweek.

Rookie David Hale could lose his spot,but it’s no easy decision for Gonzalez. Haleis 1-0 with a 2.31 ERA in four starts and iscoming off an outstanding win. Hale al-lowed only two hits over eight innings in a4-1 win over the Reds on Saturday night,facing the minimum 21 batters over his lastseven innings.

A tough call?“Sure,” Gonzalez said. “We’re pitching

well, we’re playing well. You don’t want todisrupt that.”

The staff has posted numbers through 24games unmatched by any modern staff —including the Braves’ rotation of the 1990swith 2014 Hall of Fame inductees GregMaddux and Tom Glavine, plus JohnSmoltz.

According to STATS, the 1.57 ERAthrough 24 games matches baseball’s beststart since the 1914 White Sox opened witha 1.36 mark. The 1915 Phillies starters alsohad a 1.57 ERA through 24 games.

This year, St. Louis is second in the ma-jors with its 2.24 ERA.

At 17-7, the NL East-leading Braves opena series at Miami on Tuesday night. Wood

will face Marlins ace Jose Fernandez in arematch of a memorable duel on April 22when the two combined for 25 strikeoutsand no walks in Miami’s 1-0 win.

Low-scoring games are the rule for theBraves this month. Atlanta completed athree-game sweep of the Reds on Sundaywith a 1-0 win in 10 innings, with Teheranmatching Johnny Cueto’s eight scorelessinnings.

The Braves already have played five 1-0games — including two hard-luck losses byWood.

“I’d rather have it this way than theother, when you’re scoring 14 runs and giv-ing up 13 every night,” Gonzalez said. “Ourbats will pick up, sooner or later.

“It’s fun. Every once in a while, you lookat the scoreboard and somebody is beatingsomebody 8-2 in the ninth and you go, ‘Iwish I’d get one of those every once in awhile,” he said.

Before this year, the best opening monthfor a Braves rotation in the modern era wasa 2.37 ERA in 1997, according to STATS.

Harang, who leads the majors with his0.85 ERA, is the biggest surprise. The 35-year-old journeyman was released byCleveland in spring training and signedwith the Braves.

Teheran, seventh at 1.47, said matchingscoreless innings with Cueto helps him be-lieve he deserves to be ranked with base-ball’s best starters.

“Now I feel like one of those guys,” saidTeheran, who was 14-8 with a 3.20 ERA inhis 2013 breakout season.

Teheran is only 23.“I know how good he can be,” Braves

shortstop Andrelton Simmons said. “He’sproving to people that he deserves to be theace for the team.”

Wood also is 23. Minor and Hale are 26.Minor was 13-9 with a 3.21 ERA last year.

He had urinary tract surgery on Dec. 31,which pushed back his spring schedule. Hethen developed the shoulder soreness andwas shut down in spring training.

Entering this season, Minor had thefourth-best ERA (2.90) since the 2012 All-Star break, so the Braves have to makeroom for the left-hander.

Hale could be sent to the minors or to thebullpen. An even tougher decision couldcome soon when Floyd, recovering fromTommy John surgery early in the 2013 sea-son with the White Sox, also is ready.

Gonzalez just shook his head as heavoided the question.

“One at a time, please,” he said.

SCOREBOARDCITRUS COUNTY (FL) CHRONICLE

in both the short- and long-term.Rivers’ team will host Golden State —about 8 1/2 hours after Silver is sched-uled to speak — in a crucial Game 5 ofthe teams’ Western Conference first-round series, knotted now at twogames apiece.

Meanwhile, the Clippers are al-ready taking hits in other ways overSterling’s alleged comments.

CarMax and Virgin America an-nounced they are ending their spon-sorships of the team, and Kia MotorsAmerica plans to suspend its advertis-ing and sponsorship activities with thefranchise. Insurer State Farm said it“will be taking a pause in our rela-tionship with the organization,”though the popular ad campaign fea-turing Clippers guard Chris Paul willcontinue, as will the company’s initia-tives with the NBA.

Los Angeles-based AQUAhydrate —launched by rap mogul Sean “PDiddy” Combs and actor MarkWahlberg — also said it was suspend-ing its sponsorship “in the wake ofSterling’s alleged intolerable com-ments ... until the NBA completes itsinvestigation.”

Losing sponsors would not seem tobe an issue that only hurts the Clip-pers, either. It could potentially im-pact bottom lines across the leaguebecause of revenue sharing and Bas-ketball Related Income, or BRI.

“The opportunity before Commis-sioner Silver to take an uncompromis-

ing stand against any form of preju-dice in the NBA is unprecedented inthe league,” said Marc H. Morial, thepresident and CEO of the NationalUrban League.

The NAACP said it has decided notto honor Sterling with a previously an-nounced lifetime achievement awardfrom its Los Angeles chapter. TheNAACP also plans to return an undis-closed amount of donations the Clip-pers owner has made to theorganization.

Several team owners have con-demned the alleged remarks in recentdays, including Charlotte’s MichaelJordan, Miami’s Micky Arison, Wash-ington’s Ted Leonsis and Indiana’sHerb Simon.

Regardless of what happens today,the saga surely will continue. And ifSterling is suspended, someone wouldlikely have to be appointed to run theteam, if even on an interim basis. Plus,there are numerous legal issues atplay, including whether the recordingwas legally made and the matter ofSterling’s wife suing the woman pur-ported to be on the tape with Sterling.

Those issues, however, are not ex-pected to play an immediate role inhow the league decides to proceed.

“Clearly, there’s things that havehappened, but I don’t know what theycould have done in the past,” Riverssaid. “I know now that there seems tobe proof that they can do somethingnow. And so I’m not worried about thepast — I’m worried about now andhow we handle this. I think this isgoing to be handled the right way. I re-ally have a lot of faith in Adam and theleague.”

a between-the-tackles runner.”Simply put, Clark has all the ingre-

dients to be a successful college-levelplayer, including one that Stephensonsaid showed in particular wheneverhe played defense: He likes to hit.

Clark said he may get a look on de-fense, but likely he’ll be utilizing hisskills at running back.

“I’m a downhill running back,” hesaid. “I can do a little bit of outside(running).”

He knows his strengths, and heknows what he has to do better.

“Right now, I have to improve my ac-

celeration and my top-end speed,” hesaid.

If that requires more time in theweight room, Clark’s ready for thechallenge. That’s something he saidhe’ll miss most about Citrus.

“I’ll miss the hard work and dedica-tion. It’s like a family,” he said.

Stephenson believes Clark willmake an immediate impression withthe Skyhawks.

“He’s incredibly strong,” he said.“He’s got that elusive quickness andhis leg drive, when he gets the ball hedoesn’t lose a yard.

“It’s a testament to what he’s done inthe weight room. He’s just a great ath-lete. He’s so intelligent, he makesgreat decisions.”

Looks like he made another one.

The key offensive hits against LakeWeir showed that the Pirates, just likethe Rattlers, can get offense from a va-riety of sources. Bridget Whitley’s fifth-inning double broke a 4-4 tie, and anerror on Wilson’s ensuing grounderadded another run. Alexa Mack’s two-run double in the seventh put the gameout of reach.

they set their minds to.”For Crystal River to succeed, its de-

fense must be very effective. Fortu-nately for the Pirates, they have seniorshortstop Marissa Pool and juniorcatcher Dani Gomez. Both are ex-tremely strong at their positions, andagainst Belleview, they’ll have to be.

Gomez in particular. The Rattlershave 151 stolen bases in 154 attempts,with seven players in double figures insteals. Day has 35 stolen bases andOglesby has 27, with three others withmore than 15. That could be quite achallenge for Gomez, but thus far thisseason she has been spectacular indenying base stealers.

If the Pirates can put runs on theboard early and limit their mistakes,while keeping the Rattlers’ base run-ners under control, they could be theones to advance to the Regional final.

Hall of Fame coach Jack Ramsay dies at 89Led Portland to1977 NBA title

Associated Press

MIAMI — Jack Ramsay, a Hallof Fame coach who led the Port-land Trail Blazers to the 1977NBA championship before he be-came one of the NBA’s most re-spected broadcasters, has diedfollowing a long battle with can-cer. He was 89.

His family announced hisdeath, saying he “led the greatestlife that one could lead.”

Ramsay coached in the NBAfor parts of 21 seasons before em-barking on a second career as anNBA analyst for ESPN. He was di-agnosed with melanoma in 2004and later battled growths and tu-mors that spread to his legs, lungsand brain, as well as prostate can-cer and most recently a marrowsyndrome.

His affinity for fitness never wa-vered, though. Ramsay, who com-peted in at least 20 triathlonsduring his life, worked out regu-larly into his 80s, even as he bat-tled the various forms of cancer.He often spoke of his love ofswimming in the Gulf of Mexiconear his home in Naples, or jog-ging in a pool or from wall to wallin his hotel room when on NBAassignments.

“He’s probably forgotten moreabout the game than I know,”Miami Heat coach and presidentPat Riley once said of Ramsay,whom he counted as a closefriend.

Ramsay also spent severalyears late in life caring for hiswife, Jean, who was diagnosed in2001 with Alzheimer’s disease.She died in 2010.

“He was that rarest of men witha unique style that was inspira-

tional and motivational about bas-ketball and life itself,” said PaulAllen, who owns the Trail Blazers.

Ramsay enjoyed enormouspopularity within the league. Tocommemorate his 89th birthdaythis year, Portland coach TerryStotts wore a loud checkeredjacket and open-collared shirt fora Blazers’ game — a nod to howRamsay dressed when hecoached the club.

“Jack’s life is a beacon whichguides us all,” Bill Walton, whowas on Ramsay’s 1977 title teamin Portland, told USA Today in

2007. “He is our moral compass,our spiritual inspiration. He rep-resents the conquest of substanceover hype. He is a true saint of circumstance.”

John T. Ramsay was born Feb.21, 1925, in Philadelphia and en-rolled at Saint Joseph’s in 1942,eventually becoming captain ofthe basketball team there for hissenior season. He earned a doc-torate in education from the Uni-versity of Pennsylvania in 1949,explaining the “Dr. Jack” monikerby which most players and fansknew him.

Ramsay’s biggest impact onHawk Hill would be when hestarted coaching his alma materin 1955. He was wildly successfulthere, going 234-72 and taking theHawks to the NCAA tournamentseven times and the Final Four in1961.

“Great man,” Orlando Magicguard Jameer Nelson, who playedat Saint Joseph’s, wrote on Twit-ter. “The Greatest Hawk ever. He will be missed but never Forgotten.”

To Ramsay, the most significantpart of the Saint Joseph’s years

was this: “I met my wife there,” hesaid.

He was a founding father ofsorts for the growth of the Big 5,the annual Philadelphia basket-ball series involving SaintJoseph’s, La Salle, Penn, Vil-lanova and Temple.

Ramsay became coach of thePhiladelphia 76ers in 1968, joinedthe Buffalo Braves in 1972 andbrought his craft to Portland in1976. With a team featuring Wal-ton and Maurice Lucas, he deliv-ered an NBA championship in hisfirst season, beating the 76ers insix games in the final series.

“For me, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and one that Iwill cherish forever,” Ramsay saidin a 1997 interview.

Indeed, that was his lone NBAtitle. Walton got hurt the next year,crippling Portland’s chances ofgetting back to championshipform during that era. Ramsaycoached the Blazers for ninemore seasons without anothertrip to the finals. He spent thefinal three years of his NBAcoaching career in Indiana, re-signing from the Pacers in 1988after the team started 0-7.

Ramsay was 864-783 in his NBAcareer and in 1996 was honoredas one of the league’s top 10 all-time coaches.

When he left the Pacers, Ram-say carefully did not use the word“retire,” and began working as atelevision analyst on 76ers games.Eventually, he worked on Heattelevision broadcasts for eightseasons before moving full time toESPN for radio and TV commen-tating before the 2000-01 season.

“So grateful that his pathcrossed ours,” his former Heatbroadcast partner Eric Reidwrote on Twitter early Monday.“Hall of Fame coach and man.”

Ramsay’s funeral is Thursday.

Bucs kicker recovered fromAchilles injury

Associated Press

TAMPA — Connor Barthsays he never doubted hewould kick again for theTampa Bay Buccaneers.

The seventh-year promissed all of last seasonafter tearing the Achillestendon in his right footduring a charity basketballgame. He’s recovered fromthe injury and confidenthe’ll perform as well asever in 2014.

Barth is the most accu-rate field goal kicker infranchise history, convert-ing 84.3 percent of his at-tempts since joining theBucs in 2009.

He was hurt last sum-mer, shortly before thestart of training camp,leaving the team scram-bling for a replacement.And while no could haveblamed him for question-ing whether he’d ever re-gain his pre-injury form,Barth insists the thoughtnever entered his mind.

“You never want to thinklike that. I’ve always had apositive attitude. I alwaysfeel I can come back strongfrom things,” Barth said.

“Fifteen years ago,maybe yes my careerwould have been over,” headded. “But the technol-ogy now, and the way thesedoctors can do differentsurgeries, I honestly thinkit’ll be stronger than it’sever been.”

The former North Car-olina standout was headedtoward the second seasonof a four-year, $13.2 millioncontract when he was in-jured during a charity bas-ketball game in hishometown of Wilmington.

He began kicking again inOctober and by Januaryrebuilt strength in his rightleg to the point he was hit-ting 61-yard field goals.

Barth made a club-record 92.9 percent of hisfield goal attempts in 2011,when he hit 26 of 28. He seta team single-season markwith six of 50-plus yards in2012, and led the NFL with33 field goals of 40-plusyards over those two seasons.

The 28-year-old said itwas difficult sitting out ayear ago, when the Bucsstruggled to a 4-12 record.

“It was tough. I nevermissed a game all the wayback to high school,”

Barth said. “But I got ayear off to rest my leg. Iguess that’s the positivething out of it.”

The Bucs signedLawrence Tynes as a re-placement, but the vet-eran kicker who helpedthe New York Giants wintwo Super Bowls nevergot on the field for a game.He was sidelined by an in-grown toenail on his kick-ing foot early in trainingcamp, then was diagnosedwith a MRSA infection inAugust.

The team eventuallybrought in Rian Lindell,who had been released byBuffalo, to handle the job.

Barth, who proclaimed

he’s “completely healed,”is excited to be back onthe field during offseasonworkouts. He also partici-pated in last week’s volun-tary minicamp.

He said there’s a posi-tive vibe in the lockerroom, and that new coachLovie Smith has a lot to dowith it.

“It’s just differentaround here. I think we’regoing to have a good year,”Barth said, noting that insix seasons with TampaBay and the Kansas CityChiefs he’s yet to be partof a team that’s made theplayoffs. “We have a lot ofreally good players. We’vejust got to put it together.”

Associated Press

Tampa Bay’s Connor Barth follows through on a kick April 23 during a voluntary minicamp practice in Tampa. The sixth-year pro missed all of last season after rupturing the Achilles tendon in his right foot during a charity basketball game, and he’sconfident he’ll return as good as ever in 2014.

California Chromehas 77-year-old

trainer dreamingAssociated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Art Sherman knows what it’slike to be at the Kentucky Derby with a brilliant coltthat wins the race.

He just hasn’t done it in 59 years.In 1955, Sherman was an 18-year-old exercise rider

for Swaps, a California-bred chestnut colt who beatNashua to wear the garland of roses on the first Satur-day in May.

“I was just a kid then and just glad to be learning,” hesaid.

Now he’s 77 and bringing his own California-bredchestnut to Churchill Downs, where CaliforniaChrome is the likely favorite.

The colt with the modest pedigree and impressiveresume traveled outside his home state for the firsttime Monday. He flew to Churchill Downs, where he’llstart getting used to the surface with a jog Tuesday.

“He’ll look around and know he’s at a racetrack andfeel right at home,” Sherman said. “That’s the way heis.”

California Chrome has won his last four races by acombined 24 1/4 lengths, including the $1 million SantaAnita Derby.

“He’s the kind of horse you dream about,” Shermansaid.

California Chrome finished first in the Derby pointsleaderboard that determines the maximum 20-horsefield for the 1 1/4-mile race. He’s won six of 10 careerstarts and has already topped $1 million in earnings.

Pretty impressive for a colt from humble beginnings.His mother, named Not For Love, won just one race.

She was purchased for $8,000 by Steve Coburn andPerry Martin, a move that prompted a trainer to callthem “dumb asses” for getting involved in racing.

Feeling inspired, Coburn and Martin named theiroperation DAP Racing, which stands for Dumb AssPartners. Their silks include an image of a donkey.

Sherman has his first Derby starter because Coburnand Martin contacted him about training their horse.

“He’s old school and he’s a regular guy,” Coburn said.“He doesn’t have a huge barn and he’s able to spendquality time with every horse he has in his barn.”

Sherman is based at Los Alamitos Racecourse in Or-ange County, Calif., 30 miles and a world away fromSanta Anita, the mecca of racing in Southern California.

Once a former jockey and racing official, Shermantook out his trainer’s license in 1980. His son, Alan, as-sists him with California Chrome, easily the best horsethat’s ever been in their barn.

Come Saturday evening, Sherman, Coburn, Perryand jockey Victor Espinoza hope to be tasting victory.

“I know there’s always a question until they’ve doneit, but I really think this horse will go a mile and a quar-ter, no problem,” Sherman said. “He’s doing everythingright.”

Team members of NatureCoast EMS have seen far toooften fatal accidents involv-

ing children and water. So here itis, my annual tirade regarding chil-dren, water, swimming lessons andlife vests.

Young children and/or anyonewho cannot swim or tread water,should wear life jackets, when theyare on a boat and any time they arearound any body of water; period.Wearing a life jacket is important,but wearing one that is properly fit-ted is the key to safety. If the jacketis too small, or too large, it will not provide the correct protectionintended.

Always keep an eye on your kidsaround water, and I don’t mean justa swimming pool, lake or ocean;this also includes the bathtub.Never assume anything. How many

times have you heard or read, “Ionly turned my back for a second”?Unfortunately, a second is all ittakes. Always designate someone towatch the kids around water, anddon’t assume because adults arearound the pool, or on the boat, that they are watching yourchildren.

Take the positive approach andbe prepared.

LOCK, LOOK, LEARN. Pools orspas should be surrounded on all

four sides by a fence at least 4-feethigh, with self-closing and self-latching gates. Talk to your chil-dren about not playing around thepool without adult supervision andalways designate a “waterwatcher.” Arrange for swimminglessons, and when necessary, makesure life jackets are fitted properly.

I want to take this opportunity totell you about Cayla’s Coats and anupcoming fundraiser benefiting theorganization.

In 2010, Cayla Barnes was abeautiful 20-month-old little girlwho sadly drowned on a hot July af-ternoon in Citrus County. Sincethen, her parents, Sean and JessicaBarnes, have turned a devastatingloss into a wonderful nonprofit or-ganization known as Cayla’s Coats,with help from the community.

Warmer weather is here, which isusually a good thing. However,warmer weather can also be not sogood.

Learning to deal with fatigue and cancerCancer is a scary word.

When people think aboutcancer, and its treatment,

which can include chemother-apy, lots of people get verynervous. They think chemother-apy can cause pain, but that isabsolutely not true. One of theother common concerns is nau-sea and vomiting, but with mod-ern medicine, that is becomingless and less common.

What is the main problemafter cancer treatment? The an-swer is fatigue. Cancer-relatedfatigue is a persistent feeling ofphysical, emotional or mentaltiredness or exhaustion relatedto cancer and/or its treatment.

Cancer-related fatigue is dif-ferent from feeling tired whenyou have a long day. For mostpeople, after a hard day ofwork, you take a rest and you

feel better. So the common ten-dency for patients with canceris to take a rest when they feeltired or fatigued. This is notcorrect.

Cancer patients get tiredafter less activity than peoplewho do not have cancer. Also,cancer-related fatigue is notcompletely relieved by sleepand rest and may last for a longtime. Therefore, I advise mycancer patients to remain ac-

tive in spite of fatigue.Cancer fatigue can be due to

many different causes. Fatiguecan be due to treatment of can-cer. Chemotherapy, radiationand surgery can all cause fa-tigue. Patients treated withchemotherapy usually feel themost fatigue in the days rightafter each treatment. Then thefatigue decreases until the nexttreatment.

Other causes of fatigue incancer patients include ane-mia, and that can be from treat-ment. Some patients benefitfrom erythropoietin injectionsto correct anemia. Some pa-tients may need blood transfu-sions too.

The body’s energy comesfrom food. Fatigue may occur ifthe body does not take inenough food to give the body

the energy it needs. Nutritionmay get affected by poor ap-petite, which makes patients toeat less or decreased absorp-tion in some cases.

Anxiety and depression arethe most common psychologicalcauses of fatigue in cancer pa-tients.

The emotional stress of can-cer can cause physical prob-lems, including fatigue. It’scommon for cancer patients tohave changes in moods and atti-tudes. Patients may feel anxietyand fear before and after a can-cer diagnosis. These feelingsmay cause fatigue. The effectof the disease on the patient’sphysical, mental, social, and fi-nancial well-being can increaseemotional distress. About 15percent to 25 percent of pa-tients who have cancer get de-

pressed, which may increasefatigue caused by physical fac-tors.

Insufficient sleep worsens fa-tigue. Pain medications orother medicines can contributeto fatigue too.

In short, fatigue in cancer isusually multifactorial. Trying toaddress the causes that can becorrected can ameliorate it.The patient should continue tobe as active as possible ratherthan taking a rest.

Detection key to surving ovarian cancerToday, I will finish our se-

ries of articles regardingcancers of the female

genital tract with a discussionof cancer of the ovary.

Ovarian cancer is one of themore aggressive tumors seenby oncologisst and surgeons,with estimates of 21,980 casesin 2014, and 14,270 deaths. Dueto the aggressive nature of thisdisease, only about 40 percentof women diagnosed with ovar-ian cancer will survive for fiveor more years. It is unfortu-nately a difficult cancer to de-tect in its early stages, and isoften diagnosed in an ad-vanced stage. Many of thecases are seen in children andyoung women, however about40 percent of cases are seen inwomen beyond the age ofmenopause.

Several risk factors havebeen identified and are associ-ated with an increased risk ofdeveloping ovarian cancer.The most prevalent risk factoridentified is a positive familyhistory of ovarian cancer. Therisk is also slightly increasedin women who do not havechildren and those who areolder when they first conceive.This is felt to be related to theuninterrupted monthly cycles

of ovulation which continueuntil either menopause orpregnancy. A break in thiscycle appears to decrease therisk of ovarian cancer. This isalso probably the reason theuse of birth control pills ap-pears to decrease the risk ofovarian cancer by interferingwith this process of ovulation.

The most common symptomsof ovarian cancer are abdomi-nal pain and swelling, a full-ness or pressure in the pelvicarea and indigestion symp-toms. Occasionally, pelvic painis a very early sign of ovariancancer. Unfortunately, it isoften not diagnosed until thetumor has spread to many lo-cations of the abdomen. Sec-ondary to the location of theovaries, tumors which rupturehave easy access to the entireabdominal cavity and can eas-ily spread and implant in

other areas and begin to grow.The evaluation of ovarian

cancer involves a battery ofblood test and x-rays such asCT scans and chest x-raysamong others. Surgery is themainstay of both diagnosis andtreatment of this disease. Aninitial surgical explorationand removal of all tumor pos-sible allows us to properlystage the extent of the diseaseand make further treatmentrecommendations based uponthese surgical findings.

The general management ofovarian cancer consists of thesurgical removal of the tumorwith a total hysterectomy andof biopsies of multiple areaswithin the abdomen to assistin the staging of the extent ofthe disease.

In most patients, exceptthose with very early ovariantumors, surgery is followed byadditional therapy that mayconsist of hormonal therapy,chemotherapy, radiation ther-apy or a combination of theabove. If the tumor is very ad-vanced at the time of presenta-tion, the surgery may bedelayed and chemotherapystarted to decrease the sizeand extent of the tumor. If thisis successful, surgery can be

performed later to remove anyresidual disease during a hys-terectomy.

Unfortunately, ovarian can-cer continues to be diagnosedin advanced stages fairly fre-quently. Over the past 10 years,a great deal of progress hasbeen made in early screeningof patients who have a positivefamily history.

Q:I just found out I had aloose bridge that wasthree teeth long. The den-

tist cut the bridge in front of theback tooth and found that the othertooth was too far-gone to be saved.It has been removed. Now I havetwo teeth missing and I am con-fused as to what is the best way toreplace them. Can you help?

A: This is a great question. I dealwith this situation all the time inthe office. You can relax, as it ispretty easy to make a good deci-sion once you know what your op-tions are. To follow is a list ofoptions. I will explain each of themin terms to help you make a gooddecision on how to replace themissing teeth.

Your options are as follows:1. Leave the teeth missing.2. Replace them with another

bridge — this time a four-toothbridge

3. Have two implants placed sothat crowns can be put on them

4. Use a removable partial denture.

We are going to eliminate thefirst option since I already knowyou want to replace the teeth.

The second option is a very

viable option since four-toothbridges can last a very long time,as long as the supporting teeth aresound and judged a good anchor byyour dentist. It avoids the surgeryof option three and take less time.The downside is there are timesthat you will be shaving down aperfectly good tooth just to supportthe bridge. If this is the case andyou are opposed to this, optionthree is a great alternative.

The third option is a great way ofreplacing teeth; however, it doesinvolve at least two surgeries, un-less you are a candidate for place-ment of the implant and crown (orhealing screw) at the same ap-pointment. It has the benefit of notinvolving the adjacent teeth, but itusually ends up being more costly.

The last choice is another goodchoice but it involves a removable

appliance, whereas the above twooptions are permanent solutions. Apartial is usually less favorable ifyou are replacing teeth on one sideof the dental arch, rather than bothsides. It is also more apt to get foodstuck under it and be more uncom-fortable. If only a few teeth arebeing replaced it can be cost com-petitive with the other options.However, the more teeth that needreplacing, the more attractive thisoption is from a cost standpoint.

I hope this is clear enough tohelp you make a good decision.When I talk with patients, we usu-ally have a good dialogue that al-lows questions.

Once this is done, it is usuallyclear which direction is best forthe patient. There are times whenthe patient needs a little time toponder it at home. When this is thecase a second consultation usuallyhelps to arrive at a good decision.Best of luck.

SAFETYContinued from Page C1

The field of medicine — is it art or science?Years ago, I used to hear

people talk about medi-cine as being part art

and part science. I still thinkthat that is true to some degree,but now I think we almost haveto add a third component – airtraffic controller for medicine.Let me take a few paragraphsto explain why I feel this way.

Medicine, like air traffic,years ago was less busy andcongested. Doctors now have tohave a bit of a talent of jugglingand prioritizing other factorsbesides patient care. Let megive you an example — elec-tronic medical records, com-puterization of the patient’shistory, and the recently en-acted Affordable Care Act thatis not crystal clear in its rules.Doctors are facing increasingchallenges to provide good

medical care. We have alwaysbeen driven by desire to im-prove health care delivery, andsafety, but more and more de-mands are being heaped uponus by patients being older,sicker, hospital bureaucracies,the entanglement and confu-sion of government and its pa-perwork. The patient’sexpectations are much higher.We read about it in the paper,hear about it in the news —

increased longevity and strivingfor perfection and achievingperfect outcomes in all situa-tions, which is impossible.

Let’s take the issue of safety. If safety was the onlyguideline, I would operate orsee one patient a day, a week ora month, depending on thelevel of severity and I wouldhave redundant systems, i.e.,extra staff on hand that wouldensure the patient was caredfor around the clock. Thatmight produce a perfect out-come and great patient satisfac-tion, but for the other patients,that could not be seen in thattime period it would not bevery wise or practical situation.

So, just as the air traffic con-troller has to juggle shifts andbalance airplanes coming intoone site, the physician has to

see multiple patients and address all of their needs andmake sure he or she does itsafely and effectively. More de-mands by more patients whoare older and sicker on a de-creasing doctor populationcould be a recipe for disaster,and at the very least, decreasedpatient care quality and patientsatisfaction.

It is interesting to note thatthe medical profession as awhole, including doctors, doc-tors associations and hospitals,have looked to other industriesto provide safe, economical, ef-fective and economically soundmedicine.

The industries that havebeen looked at and admired fortheir records of safety and effi-ciency include auto racing pitcrews, which can bring a car in

that is hurtling along at 100mph plus, fill it with gas, cleanthe windshield, change thetires and have it back out onthe road up to 100 mph withinseconds.

Also, the airline industry, par-ticularly pilots with their cock-pit checklist that reminds themof what is important and whatneeds to be looked at, done be-fore a safe takeoff occurs. Pa-tient safety and outcomes arevery important to doctors andin this age of increased pres-sure from all sides, we need tokeep focused and do the bestthat we can.

calizing, to an upbeat version of “Do YouWanna Dance.”

Erin returned to center stage with apowerful, moving version of TammyWynette’s “Stand By Your Man,” and mypersonal favorite, “The Power of Love.”

PHILLIP ALDERNewspaper Enterprise Assn.

This week, we are looking at strong jumpshifts. The opener bids one of a suit and re-sponder makes a single jump in a new suit.

Responder shows 13-16 high-card points andeither a one-suiter with an excellent suit (inprinciple, with a play for at most one loser op-posite a low singleton), or a two-suiter with atleast nine cards divided 5-plus - 4-plus in theresponder’s suit and the opener’s suit.

In the old days, a strong jump shift promisedsome 17-19 high-card points. This was not agood idea. First, a hand that strong almostnever came up; and second, with that amountof power, responder did best to make a quietresponse to learn as much as possible aboutthe distribution and strength of his partner’shand before naming the final contract.

In today’s deal, responder’s second jumpshowed that his suit was completely solid.North, after rebidding two no-trump to findout which hand-type his partner had, usedBlackwood before signing off in six hearts.

After West leads the club queen, how shouldSouth proceed?

Declarer is faced with three losers in hishand: one diamond and two clubs. He does nothave time to play a diamond to establish a dis-card, because East would win with his ace andcash the club king. South must win withdummy’s club ace, play a heart to his ace, andtake the three spade tricks, discarding his dia-mond loser. Then declarer gives up a club. In amoment, he ruffs his final club with dummy’sheart eight and claims (MSNBC) 42 41 42 PoliticsNation (N) Hardball With Chris

Dear Annie: I havegiven the past 10 yearsto a man I love very

much. “Cliff” wants to marryme, but I’ve turned himdown. The problem is, hewants us to get married andeach live in ourown houses.

We are both 67years old. Rightnow, Cliff spendsweekends at myplace. When I sug-gest going to hishouse on the occa-sional weekend, hesays no, claiminghe hasn’t had timeto clean or thereare no groceries ormy bed is morecomfortable andmy TV is bigger,etc., etc. When Isuggested we purchase ahouse together, Cliff said he will never leave hishouse. Ever. He thinks Ishould put my stuff in storageand move in with only myclothes.

I feel so defeated. Cliff sayshe loves me, but admits helikes to live by himself. Wetried counseling, but he does-n’t like what they say to him. Ibroke up with him and haveeven gone out on a few dates,but it only makes me misshim more. Any advice? —Ohio

Dear Ohio: Cliff sounds setin his ways and nervousabout changes to his environ-ment. He thinks if he keepshis house exactly as it is, hislife will stay exactly the same,and he finds great comfort inthat. You aren’t going to winthis fight without negativerepercussions, so decidewhether marriage is your

goal. There is no reason thetwo of you cannot continue asyou are and take marriage offthe table altogether. But ifyou want to marry and actu-ally live together, Cliff is notyour guy.

Dear Annie:How can I get mywife to travel? Wehave been marriedfor 55 years andhave not taken anylong vacations to-gether. Years ago, Itraveled for workand loved it. Mywife has neverheld an outsidejob. She stayedhome to raise ourfour children andnow takes care ofour great-grand-son.

My wife inherited somemoney from a relative, butshe hoards it for herself. Wecan afford to travel, but shewon’t. Please help me out. Iwant to see places before Idie. — Sam in Atlanta

Dear Sam: You will have tosee them without your wife.There may be myriad reasonswhy she doesn’t wish totravel. She could be afraid offlying or of unfamiliar places;she could find travel uninter-esting or exhausting; she maynot want to leave her great-grandson; she may think sheis too old.

You could ask whether shewould take a short trip to anearby place — say a week-end in Savannah or a mini-vacation with yourgreat-grandson — and thenperhaps convince her totravel farther afield. If sheabsolutely refuses, look intogoing on your own through

group tours or traveling withfriends. But don’t expect herto use her inheritance moneyfor your pursuits. You’ll haveto find another way to pay forthis.

Dear Annie: Here’s my re-sponse to “Not a Lawyer,”whose family told him thatlawyers don’t give out free ad-vice:

A doctor and a lawyer werewalking out of church onemorning after services. Thedoctor couldn’t stop com-plaining that wherever hewent people approached himasking medical questions andwanting free advice.

The lawyer explained thathe, too, was once the target ofpeople asking him for freeadvice, but he found a way toend it. “How did you manageit?” asked the doctor. “Oh,that was easy,” the lawyerreplied. “I started sendingout bills, and soon enough theproblem was solved.” The fol-lowing week, the doctoropened a letter from thelawyer that contained a billfor his services.

My wife and I enjoy read-ing your column every day. —M.S., Montreal, Quebec
