PIER PRESSUREMexico Beach awaits results of city’s pier structure survey

PANAMA CITY BEACH — Oh what a difference 35 years makes.

From its humble beginnings in the 1970’s, when Bay Dis-trict Schools, the business community and Gulf Coast Community College peti-tioned the legislature for a university in Bay County, to 1982, when the campus opened with “just a few build-ings” and a resident faculty of four, to today, Florida State

University Panama City has grown into an education hub for the county and the region.

During their annual dinner Wednesday night, officials with the university reflected on 35 years of history and also, more importantly, looked forward to the many exciting prospects on the horizon.

“Today, we have a bus-tling campus with nearly 40 resident faculty members and more than 25 academic programs,” Florida State University President John Thrasher said of the Panama

City campus. “We’ve helped thousands of people in this area reach their educational and professional goals.”

One prospect has become a lot clearer thanks to a $500,000 donation from John and Gail Robbins for the university’s new Center for Academic Excellence and Innovation on campus. Dean Randy Hanna announced during the dinner that the center would, from this point forward, be named the John and Gail Robbins Center for

PANAMA CITY –For good luck, officials on Tuesday morning tossed coins into the first concrete pour of a new warehouse that will be part of a major new Port Panama City expansion.

County commissioners, port authority officials, city officials and economic devel-opment officials donned hard hats to watch the concrete pour for a new warehouse that will be part of the East Terminal expansion.

The expansion on the 40-acre waterfront track the port bought from the

paper mill will double the port's cargo capacity. The expansion will allow for development of new heavy cargo and break-bulk han-dling facilities as well as a new warehouse.

According to the consulting firm Martin and Associates,

FIRST POUR

By John Henderson522-5108 | @[email protected]

PANAMA CITY – For years, Bay County was all dressed up with no where to go waiting for $1.5 billion in Triumph oil spill funds to come to the Panhandle.

Now, county commis-sioners are being told the ball is about to begin.

“It's been hurry up and wait, and now we're on warp speed,” county com-missioner Guy Tunnell said Tuesday.

He made the comment before the board approved of a process that gives the county, for now, only a preliminary screening on applications brought f o r t h b y g o v e r n m e n t bodies as the county faces

a imposing deadline.On Oct. 10, Triumph’s

b o a r d o p e n e d a p r e -application cycle that is mandatory for those wish-ing to propose projects that would be funded out of the first $300 million in Triumph Gulf Coast funds. The pre-application cycle closes Nov. 15.

The commission on Tuesday approved of a timeline in which the commission on Nov. 7 will approve of its list to forward to the Triumph board, which is one day before the next Triumph meeting.

The Lynn Haven City Commis-sion is considering placing “traffi c calming devices” throughout Lynn Haven includ-ing speed bumps and stop signs.Jason Lee Elwell: “Isn’t it slow enough as it is? Everyone drives 30 all the way down 390, making drivers take side streets to get around them. Same way with 15th and 23rd, no one drives the actual speed limit.”Tom Schmid: “The cities in Bay County already have “Traffi c Calming Devices.” They are called speed limit and stop signs. What we need are more “Traffi c Enforcement Devices.” They are called police cars, and their drivers are underpaid and understaffed.”Matthew Bonnin: “When I was younger I was pretty against speed bumps ... but man, if having a speed bump might save some kid’s life by slowing down neighborhood traffi c, I think that’s reasonable.”Teresa Nester Hamilton: “Minnesota Ave through Pine Forest is used as a traffi c cut-through... 2 stop signs... that MOST people completely ignore! Police have better things to do than babysit those corners. But, those little auto-cameras would help.”Jay Wright: “‘Traffi c Calming Devices’ Now that is a new one.” Lynva Masslieno, pastor at Kingdom Agenda International Ministry, is tired of just talk. The Kingdom Impact Center, the ministry’s outreach arm, holds activities almost every day after school and most weekends. It’s one of the few places local kids can show up and have something to do, Masslieno said, and the fenced-in yard means they’re looked after and safe until it’s time to go home.Sunny Sunshine: “This is beyond awesome... keep up the great work.”

MIAMILawsuit seeks disclosure of FBI 9/11 investigation fi les

A lawsuit seeking disclo-sure of FBI files that may detail a U.S.-based support network for the 9/11 hijackers has reached a federal appeals court, which is being asked by a Florida online publication to order a Freedom of Informa-tion Act trial on the dispute.

The case centers around reporting published by flor-idabulldog.org on the FBI’s investigation into a Saudi family that abruptly left its home in a gated Sarasota community two weeks before the 2001 terror attacks. One FBI document written in 2002 that was disclosed in court said agents had found “many connections” between the family and some of the hijack-ers who took flying lessons at a nearby airport, including ringleader Mohamed Atta.

JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK, CALIF.Authorities: Bodies in desert locked in embrace

Authorities say two adult bodies were locked in an embrace when they were discovered in Joshua Tree National Park, near the area where a missing Southern California couple vanished while hiking three months ago.

Jodi Miller, spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Depart-ment, said Tuesday that officials have yet to identify the remains found over the weekend in the desert park.

Gilbert Orbeso, who was with the search party when the discovery was made, told KESQ-TV that they are his 21-year-old son, Joseph Orbeso, and Joseph’s 20-year-old girlfriend, Rachel Nguyen.

BARCELONA, SPAINCatalans protest sedition case, court declares vote illegal

Spain’s top court ruled T u e s d a y t h a t a n i n d e -pendence referendum in Catalonia was unconsti-tutional, adding weight to government efforts to block the region from breaking away from the rest of the country but not persuading demonstrators demand-ing the release of two jailed separatist activists.

The Constitutional Court’s ruling was not a surprise. The Spanish government had repeatedly insisted the ref-erendum was illegal.

Regional leaders defied the Madrid-based cen-tral government and held the Oct. 1 vote even after police seized millions of bal-lots and used force to close polling stations.

MOGADISHU, SOMALIAIn Somalia, hope fades in desperate search for missing

A n g u i s h e d f a m i l i e s scoured Somalia’s capital Tuesday in search of scores still missing from Saturday’s bomb blast that killed more than 300 people in one of the world’s deadliest attacks in years.

Sitting outside a hospital mortuary, Hodan Ali qui-etly looked for her missing brother by showing people his photo on the screen of her mobile phone.

Fifty-year-old taxi driver Abdiqadir Ali was last seen Saturday on his way to a hotel to pick up a client just before the massive explosion on a busy street.

Ali, a mother of four, said she had visited most of Moga-dishu’s hospitals but neither she nor other family members found any sign of him.

Storm Ophelia is batter-ing Scotland and northern England after leaving three people dead and hundreds of thousands without power in Ireland.

The former Atlantic hur-ricane knocked down trees and power lines, sent waves surging over coastal defenses and disrupted both public and private transport again Tuesday, a day after making landfall on Ireland’s south coast with gusts of almost 100 miles an hour.

B r i t a i n ’ s M e t O f f i c e weather service said Scot-land could continue to see heavy rain and gusts of up to 70 mph, with winds gradu-ally diminishing through Tuesday.

SANTA ROSA, Calif. — As crews gained on the wildfires in California wine country, new blazes broke out in other parts of the state, including a fire in the mountains above Los Angeles that threatened a historic observatory Tuesday and more flames in the Santa Cruz mountains.

Firefighters on the ground and in the air raced to pro-tect the Mount Wilson Observatory and nearby com-munications towers from a growing brush fire northeast of LA. The blaze was initially estimated at around 5 acres (2 hectares).

The observatory, which has been evacuated, opened in 1917 and houses the 100-inch Hooker Telescope, one of the most advanced tele-scopes of the first half of the 20th century.

Farther north, a fire that sprang up late Monday in the mountains of the southern Bay Area blackened at least 150 acres and threatened 150 homes, which prompted evacuation orders.

Smoke was descending into the coastal beach town of Santa Cruz.

Winds remained light, but conditions were also dry. Crews dropped water on the blaze, which started as a structure fire of some kind.

“The idea is to hit it pretty hard with aircraft and hit it with ground resources at the same time,” said Rob

Sherman, a division chief at the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

Five firefighters suffered minor injuries, including one who slipped down a ravine.

In the state’s wine-making region, tens of thousands of people began drifting back to their neighborhoods. Some returned to find their homes gone.

The deadliest wildfires in California history have been burning for more than a week, killing at least 41 people and destroying nearly 6,000 homes. About 34,000 people remained under evac-uation Tuesday, down from 40,000 on Monday.

“It’s never going to be the same,” said Rob Brown, a supervisor in Mendocino County, where all 8,000 evacuees were cleared to go home Monday. “You’re going to have to seek a new normal.”

The thousands of calls coming from concerned resi-dents in neighboring Sonoma County “have shifted from questions about evacuation to questions about coping,” Sonoma County Supervisor Shirlee Zane said.

“Many people who call are sad and worried. The shock has worn off,” and depres-sion is setting in.

As a former grief therapist,

she advised people with a family member or loved one who has lost everything to understand they can’t fix this but they can offer support.

“Provide a compassion-ate listening ear right now, and let them feel whatever they’re feeling,” Zane said.

A n d t h o s e w h o m u s t rebuild from nothing are in for a changed life.

“You’re in for decades,” Brown said. “You’ll see ben-efits within years, but you’re literally in for decades of recovery.”

Jennifer Kelly and her hus-band and three sons lost their home and everything in it to a fire in Middletown in Lake

County two years ago.With the new home 95

percent rebuilt, they get ner-vous when they hear distant sirens or helicopters and air tankers.

Far-off plumes of smoke bring on-again, off-again evacuation orders.

“I’m pretty anxious,” she said Sunday. “We wake up a few times a night. One time last week we saw red on the horizon, which was a little intimidating.”

The Kellys are ready to evacuate. Since they started from scratch two years ago, there’s not much to put in their van aside from their pets.

They have talked about what they will do if it hap-pens again: “We’re moving far away, to Wyoming,” she said.

The return home was emo-tional even for those whose properties were spared.

“When we came up to check on it, we were amazed it was here,” said Tom Beck-man. “All the trivial things we have to work on — clean-ing up, replacing the stuff in the fridge and freezer — that’s nothing compared to my friends who lost their homes.”

In the hard-hit city of Santa Rosa, two hospitals were forced to close during the fires, leaving just one open, St. Joseph Health.

Eighty-three hospital employees and 51 doctors lost homes during the fires, though many continued to report to work.

and other government bodies wanting a slice of the first round of Triumph funds, which are supposed to be spent on economic development and envi-ronmental restoration. The commission agreed to use the three-page, pre-appli-cation already approved by the Triumph board. The Triumph board recently also approved of a lengthy formal application, which would be filled out for projects the commission forwards to Triump. "Our objective is not create any more bureaucracy than we need to,” County Manager Bob Majka said.

Bay County RESTORE Act Coordinator Jim Muller said that “good projects that are absolutely ready to go will have an advantage."

T h e c o m m i s s i o n endorsed a plan put forth by Muller that calls for

county not ranking proj-ects but instead reviewing three-page pre-appli-cations by cities and appointed government

boards before they are sent on for formal review by the Triumph Gulf Coast board, a nonprofit the state formed to approve of

projects.County officials would

determine from the pre-application whether the application meets the state

statutory requirements and county priorities based on the Northwest Florida Forward Strategic Plan.

“Anyone can submit a Triumph pre-applica-tion directly to Triumph – it does not have to go through a local elected body,” Muller explained in an email after the meeting.

After this past Legisla-tive session, the first $300 million payment slated to be spent on projects in the eight most affected coun-ties by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is in the bank. Another $1.2 billion

is proposed to come to those Panhandle counties under the program through 2033.

State legislation requires that at least 5 percent – or $15 million - be spent on projects in each of the eight counties. The Triumph board has the final deci-sions on projects.

Under state law, for funds to be allocated, in each county commission-ers shall solicit proposed projects from other elected local governing boards within the county.

The commission agreed that county staff would want a “yes” answer to these questions before forwarding on the appli-cations to Triumph Gulf Coast:

Does the project comply with the guidelines estab-lished by the Triumph board?

Does the project main-tain the strength of a current economic sector in Bay County?

D o e s t h e p r o j e c t strengthen a current economic sector in Bay County that was weak?

Does the project capital-ize on an opportunity that would benefit a sector or sectors of the Bay County economy?

Does the project pro-tect a sector or sectors of the Bay County economy from a threat?

Does the project create diversity in the Bay County economy?

WASHINGTON — Republican and Dem-ocratic senators joined in announcing a plan Tuesday aimed at stabi-lizing America’s health insurance markets in the wake of President Donald Trump’s order to terminate “Obamacare” subsidies.

Trump himself spoke approvingly of the deal, but some conserva-tives denounced it as an insurance company bail-out, making its future uncertain.

T h e a g r e e m e n t f o l l o w e d w e e k s o f negotiations between Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennes-see and Democratic Sen. Patty Murray of Wash-ington that sought to address health insur-ance markets that have been in limbo following GOP failures to repeal and replace the Afford-able Care Act. The talks took on added urgency when Trump announced last week that he would end monthly “cost shar-ing reduction” payments the government makes to help insurance com-panies reduce costs for lower-income people.

Without that money, premiums for some people buying individual health plans would spike, and some insurers would flee the markets, industry officials warn.

The Alexander-Murray deal would continue the insurer payments for two years, while establishing new flexibility for states under former President Barack Obama’s law.

“This would allow the Senate to continue its debate about the long term of health care, but over the next two years I think Americans won’t have to worry about the possibility of being able to buy insurance in counties where they live,” Alexander said in announcing the deal after a closed-door lunch where he presented it to GOP senators.

“ T h i s a g r e e m e n t avoids chaos. I don’t know a Republican or Democrat who benefits from chaos,” he said.

Alexander said the president had encour-aged his efforts in phone calls over the past two weeks. And at the White House, Trump responded positively, expressing optimism that Repub-licans would ultimately succeed in repealing Obamacare, but until then: “For one year, two years, we’re going to have a very good solution.”

Trump’s position may

seem contradictory in that he himself ordered an end to the payments, calling them a bailout, but is now encouraging legislation to reinstitute them.

Indeed White House officials had said they would want more in exchange than the addi-tional state flexibility offered in the Alexander-Murray agreement.

Just minutes before Alexander announced the deal, White House legislative director Marc Short emerged from the Senate GOP lunch saying that “a starting point” in exchange for restoring the cost-sharing pay-ments “is eliminating the individual mandate and employer mandate” — the central pillars of Obamacare.

That suggested some disagreement within the administration on the issue. If so, it does not bode well for ultimate p a s s a g e o f A l e x a n -der-Murray, since the

president’s full support will be crucial in per-suading Republicans to get on board.

Initially as presi-dent, Trump continued making the payments though resisting, but he declared last week he would pull the plug. The payments, which cost around $7 billion this year, lower expenses like co-payments and deductibles for more than 6 million people. But discontinuing them would actually cost the government more money u n d e r O b a m a c a r e ’ s complicated structure, because some people facing higher premiums would end up getting bigger tax subsidies to help pay for them.

The Alexander-Murray deal does include a host of provisions allowing states faster and easier access to waivers that would allow them to shape their own marketplace plans under O b a m a c a r e . I t a l s o would provide for a new low-cost catastrophic c o v e r a g e i n s u r a n c e option for all consumers.

Reaction from the GOP was decidedly mixed. For many conservatives it’s practically unthinkable to sign off on federal payments that would arguably prop up a law they’ve been vowing for seven years to destroy.

Rep. Mark Walker of North Carolina, chair-man of the conservative Republican Study Com-mittee in the House, quickly denounced the deal over Twitter: “The GOP should focus on repealing & replacing Obamacare, not trying to save it. This bailout is unacceptable.”

WASHINGTON — Rep. Tom Marino, President Donald Trump’s nominee to be the nation’s drug czar, has withdrawn from consideration, following reports that he played a key role in weakening the federal government’s authority to stop com-panies from distributing opioids.

“He didn’t want to have even the perception of a conflict of interest with drug companies or, frankly, insurance com-panies,” Trump told Fox News Radio in an inter-view Tuesday, shortly after breaking the news on Twitter.

The announcement follows reports by The Washington Post and CBS News, which detailed the Pennsylvania lawmaker’s involvement in craft-ing a 2016 law, signed by President Barack Obama, that weakened the Drug Enforcement Adminis-tration’s authority to curb opioid distribution.

It also comes amid growing pressure on Trump to fulfi l l his pledge to declare the nation’s opioid epidemic a “national emergency,” as a commission he’s con-vened on the subject has urged him to do. Trump told reporters Monday that he would be making the declaration official next week.

Interviewed by Fox N e w s R a d i o ’ s B r i a n Kilmeade, Trump said

Marino “felt compelled” to step down from the job.

“He feels very strongly about the opioid problem and the drug problem and Tom Marino said, ‘Look, I’ll take a pass,’” Trump added.

Trump did not say when he and the con-gressman spoke. Marino could not immediately be reached Tuesday for comment.

T r u m p h a d t o l d reporters during a news conference in the White House Rose Garden on Monday that he would look “very closely” at the reports about Marino, adding: “If I think it’s 1 percent negative to doing what we want to do, I will make a change,” he said.

Democrats had called on Trump to withdraw the nomination, and hailed the news, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calling Marino’s decision the “right decision.”

“We need a drug czar who has seen these dev-astating effects and who is passionate about ending this opioid epi-demic,” said Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin, whose home state of West Vir-ginia has been among the hardest-hit by the opioid epidemic.

Manchin had scolded the Obama administra-tion for failing to “sound the alarm on how harm-ful that bill would be for our efforts to effectively fight the opioid epi-demic,” which kills an estimated 142 people a day nationwide.

AUSTIN, Texas — The pilot in the deadliest hot air balloon crash in U.S. history was probably impaired by Valium, opi-oids and cold and allergy medicine when he ignored weather warnings and flew the ride into a power line, investigators said Tuesday.

Besides Valium and oxycodone, there was enough of the over-the-counter antihistamine Benadryl in Alfred “Skip” Nichols’ system to mimic “the impairing effect of a blood-alcohol level” of a drunken driver, said Dr. Nicholas Webster, a National Transportation Safety Board medical officer.

During a meeting in W a s h i n g t o n , N T S B revealed its findings about the July 2016 crash near Austin that killed all 16 people aboard. Investi-gators scolded the Federal Aviation Administration for lax enforcement of the ballooning industry and recommended that balloon pilots submit to the same medical checks as airplane pilots.

Nichols, 49, had at least four prior convictions for drunken driving, though no alcohol was found in his system after the crash. Investigators said Nichols was told during a weather briefing before the flight that clouds may be a problem. He brushed off the warning.

“We just fly in between them,” Nichols allegedly answered back, accord-ing to NTSB investigators. “We find a hole and we

go.”Visibility was 10 miles

about two hours before the balloon took off from a Walmart parking lot near the rural town of Lock-hart but had diminished to just 2 miles before the ride began.

I n v e s t i g a t o r s s a i d Nichols told his psychia-trist three months before the crash that he was not using his antidepressant medication and that his psychiatrist documented his mood as “not good.” Nichols was prescribed 13 medications and was also being treated for attention deficit hyperactivity dis-order, known as ADHD, which investigators say also was a contributing factor.

The final public hear-ing by the NTSB into the crash wasn’t the first time the federal government’s crash-site investiga-tors have urged the FAA to more closely regulate the balloon industry. NTSB Chairman Robert Sumwalt ripped the FAA and questioned why the

agency was endorsing voluntary pilot require-ments written by the Balloon Federation of America instead of tight-ening regulations.

“Why is the FAA pro-moting it? It is not an FAA program,” Sumwalt said. “The FAA is treating this as the be-all, end-all. They are abdicating their responsibility to pro-vide oversight. They are saying, ‘The BFA will take care of this so we do not have to do anything.’ That is what is sad.”

The FAA said in a state-ment that it will carefully consider the NTSB rec-ommendations but did not address Sumwalt’s criticism.

Before the Texas crash, Nichols’ balloon-ride companies in Missouri and Illinois were the tar-gets of various customer complaints dating back to 1997. Customers reported to the Better Business Bureau that their rides would get canceled at the last minute and their fees never refunded.

Academic Excellence and Innovation.

“It’s really cool when you’re able to directly match the desires of a donor with the immediate needs of the students,” Hanna remarked.

The new center features a digital design studio and space for students to work on projects. One group of students has been in there working on robots, Hanna said, and another group is designing a rocket for an upcoming NASA competition. There’s also in-person tutoring available, or space for students to just hang out on campus and watch a movie.

“ T h i s h a s c l e a r l y become a place for learn-ing at FSU PC,” Hanna said, adding that on most days, the center is already bustling with students.

Hanna also announced that in January, the FSU Board of Trustees will be considering a proposal for a new Masters-level degree in Systems Engi-neering for the Panama City campus, a program

Hanna said was specifi-cally requested by the Navy to fill their need for more engineers. If approved, Hanna said the program would ten-tatively launch during the Fall 2018 semester. During the January meet-ing, Hanna will also put before the board a request to start a biomedical engi-neering program.

“We must meet the needs of our commu-nity,” Hanna said.

In line with meet-ing needs, Hanna said the university has made significant progress on starting a new under-graduate mechanical engineering degree up by Fall 2019 at the latest.

“The Navy has told us they will hire every grad-uate we can produce from FSU PC,” Hanna said of the mechanical engineer-ing program.

In closing, Hanna said the university has renewed partnerships with businesses and col-leges throughout the region, including Gulf Coast State College, whose students will have a smoother tran-sition between schools thanks to a new articula-tion agreement set to be signed Friday.

“It’s an exciting time to be at FSU PC,” Hanna said. “And it is an exciting time to be in Northwest Florida.”

the cargo activity related to the improved channel depth and first ware-house will generate 111 direct jobs and 225 indi-rect or induced jobs, as well as construction jobs.

Port director Wayne Stubbs said he expects it will take 14 months for the new warehouse to be completed and another four months for the bulk-head reinforcement and new deepwater port facil-ity to be completed. The first phase will involve a fair amount of site work and railroad and road infrastructure, though the heart of it is a 150,000 foot new warehouse. The second phase will extend the warehouse another 100,000 feet.

Stubbs said the deep-ening of the channel that

is part of the project will add to the import and export business. “Right now the ships can only really come in and load the export of WestRock ( p r o d u c t s ) , ” S t u b b s said. “There are some ships that go to the Far East that can’t get in here now, so we might be able to add some ships to the Far East from this (new) dock, which will be advantageous to them, or (attract ships from) Port Savannah. WestRock should be able to increase its exports, but we’ll have enough capacity here to handle exports from other companies.”

Stubbs said the cur-rent channel is not only too shallow but the cur-rent warehouse is small and old.

“As ships get bigger and bigger and bigger they need more cargo, and they need deeper water,” Stubbs said.

“We want them to keep coming. We don’t want to lose that activity.” And also we were out of space to keep growing significantly.”

He pointed to open land stretching to the west of the paper mill. ““That’s going to give us decades of growth opportunity,” Stubbs said. “We bought most of it. We have an option on 27 more acres (to expand).”

Tem Fontaine, head of special projects for WestRock paper mill, tossed in a 1931 Liberty head dime into the con-crete pour for good luck and to mark the year the paper mill began shipping product.

He said the new deep-water port will benefit the paper mill as it will cut down shipping costs.

“It will mean more flexibility in transporta-tion opportunities,” he said.

LONDON — Silicon Valley is a uniquely American creation, the product of an entrepreneur-ial spirit and no-holds-barred capitalism that now drives many aspects of modern life.

But the likes of Facebook, Google and Apple are increas-ingly facing an uncomfortable truth: it is Europe’s culture of tougher oversight of compa-nies, not America’s laissez-faire attitude, which could soon rule their industry as governments seek to combat fake news and prevent extremists from using the internet to fan the flames of hatred.

While the U.S. has largely relied on market forces to regulate content in a country where free speech is revered, European officials have shown they are willing to act. Ger-many recently passed a law imposing fines of up to 50 million euros ($59 million) on websites that don’t remove hate speech within 24 hours. British Prime Minister The-resa May wants companies to take down extremist material within two hours. And across the EU, Google has for years been obliged to remove search results if there is a legitimate complaint about the content’s veracity or relevance.

“I anticipate the EU will be where many of these issues get played out,” said Sarah T. Roberts, a professor of infor-mation studies at UCLA who has studied efforts to moni-tor and vet internet content. Objectionable content “is the biggest problem going forward. It’s no longer acceptable for the firms to say that they can’t do anything about it.”

How closely to manage the massive amounts of content on the internet has become a pressing question in the U.S. since it was revealed that Russian agencies took out thousands of ads on social media during the presidential campaign, reaching some 10 million people on Facebook alone.

“Would it spoil some vast eternal plan…If I were a wealthy man.”— “If I Were a Rich Man” from “Fiddler on the Roof”

Some folks garden on the weekend. Some golf. Others travel. My

favorite weekend pastime is reading and digesting a long economic treatise. Not your typical week-end activity, but I love to read about the history of money and finance.

So while my husband channel surfed for SEC football last weekend, I delved into “Capital in the Twenty-First Century” by Thomas Piketty, a profes-sor at the Paris School of Economics and an expert on income inequality.

Piketty asserts that

significant income inequality is deeply rooted in world history. Further-more, he suggests that the leveling of the playing field during the late 20th century was an anomaly. And now, ownership of capital is again becoming more important than the ability to create capital.

In other words, what we now consider a recent occurrence, the shifting of income to the super rich, is not a new trend, but rather a return to a historical norm. The best summary of Piketty’s theory that I found was in The Econo-mist, and reads thusly: “Private wealth dwarfed national income and was concentrated in the hands of the rich families who sat atop a relatively rigid class structure. This system per-sisted even as industrial-ization slowly contributed to rising wages for workers. Only the chaos of the first and second world wars and the Depression disrupted this pattern. High taxes, inflation, bankruptcies

and the growth of sprawl-ing welfare states caused wealth to shrink dra-matically, and ushered in a period in which both income and wealth were distributed in relatively egalitarian fashion.”

You and I grew up in this egalitarian period. It was the only economic structure we had ever seen firsthand, regardless of the tales in history books about lords and serfs. The term “landed gentry” says it all. In the Middle Ages and well afterward, land ownership was commen-surate with wealth. And even as America’s eco-nomic system evolved, land ownership and inherited privilege cemented wealth in the hands of the few, rather than the multitudes, until the aforementioned disruptions temporar-ily changed the game.

Piketty asserts that normally, you make more money on money than do you working, a concept that favors those who have financial resources. If the

global economy grows quickly then the common man benefits, but when the economy grows slowly (which is the norm), class structure tends to revert to a “winner take all” system, and is thus less egalitarian.

Today we are seeing a return to economic power of the super rich and the shrinking of the middle class in America. Only now, instead of land, financial assets are the route to dominance for the wealthy.

P A N A M A C I T Y BEACH—Panama City Beach shoppers won’t have to wait in lines or shop for their groceries, as the Walmart location unveils its new online grocery pickup service on Oct. 19.

The new service takes a lot of pressure of off customers, said Krys-tal Sartain, department manager.

“It’s a great service for busy moms and also vaca-tioners who don’t want to shop,” said Sartain. “It’s a great way for people to eliminate the shopping experience. We’re here to alleviate that.”

Over 40,000 items, including meat, dairy, vegetables and more can be purchased online and picked up for free at the Panama City Beach Wal-Mart, 10270 Front Beach Road, said Melissa Prosser, Walmart eCommerce Market Coach for North-west Florida.

“We know custom-ers are looking for more convenience, choice and savings, and we’re proud to offer this service in more than 100 markets and 1,000 stores in the U.S. today. You’ll continue to see us add more and more loca-tions to bring this service to customers,” she said.

The online service is also available in stores in Jacksonville, Fort Walton Beach, Tallahassee and other locations across the state and country.

People can download the Walmart grocery app, place their orders and pick up their groceries at one of the nine pick up stalls, said Sartain. She said there is a minimum of $30 per basket. Personal shoppers will select the items on cus-tomers’ grocery lists and have them ready for pickup.

Customers are looking for more convenient ways to shop, and the grocery service is an example of how Wal-Mart is trying to create meaningful experi-ence for shoppers, Prosser

said.“By combining stores-

online and mobile-Walmart not only saves customers money with low prices on groceries, but also saves time by allowing custom-ers to choose a convenient time to pick up their order without ever leaving their vehicle,” Prosser said.

Prosser said customers love the service.

“They tell us this is a life saver, that it’s a game changer, that it’s ‘easy peasy’ and that they feel ‘like a boss’ and a ‘rockstar’ when ordering groceries this way,” she said.

VIEWPOINTS

P eople rarely say they don’t want to make more money. And we Americans, being a generous lot, generally want others, espe-cially those clumped on the lower rungs of

the economic ladder, to pocket more dough.To give them a boost, many recommend boosting

the minimum wage. The popular figure bandied about in many quarters is $15 an hour — which would almost double the rate in Florida. Hence, a new study analyzing the potential effects of that should give us pause, espe-cially if this issue re-emerges in Tallahassee next year.

Currently, Florida’s minimum wage is $8.10 an hour. It’s slated to go up to $8.25 on Jan. 1.

When asked by a Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh survey if the state increased that to $15 an hour — or 85 percent above the current level — many companies reported serious adverse effects.

• 48 percent said they would very likely raise prices, and another 11 percent were somewhat likely to do so.

• 43 percent indicated they would very likely roll back employees’ hours, while another 13 per-cent were somewhat likely to do so.

• 39 percent were very likely to lay people off, as another 12 percent were somewhat likely to trim staff.

• One third said they would either seek technology to replace human beings (21 percent very likely, 12 per-cent somewhat likely) or favor hiring more highly skilled workers instead of newcomers to the labor market (23 percent very likely, 10 percent somewhat likely).

• Thirty percent responded that they would close.Optimists among the pro-$15-an-hour set would point

out that most businesses would remain open or would not replace workers with robots, while half would not fire people. They could also point to studies from outside Florida that suggest raising the minimum wage produces no nega-tive effects, and provides workers fatter paychecks.

But policymakers in Tallahassee should be wary of such arguments. During Florida’s 2016 legislative ses-sion, bills were introduced to guarantee workers $15 an hour by January 2017. They died while mired in commit-tees. Florida TaxWatch, the respected economic think tank in Tallahassee, noted afterward had the legisla-tion passed, employers immediately would have been socked with an additional $1.8 billion in labor costs.

TaxWatch pointed out last year only 2 percent of Florida workers toil for minimum wage, and the median hourly rate statewide was $15.29. Thus, a sizeable chunk of the state’s workforce reside in that zone above the cur-rent minimum wage yet below what many see as the desirable minimum wage. Lawmakers should not auto-matically or completely dismiss the potential benefits of lifting salaries for these workers. But they should probe deeper the potential impact of such a dramatic hike. We may learn, as the Carnegie Mellon study suggests, that the cure may be far worse than the alleged illness.

This editorial first appeared in the Daytona News Jour-nal, a News Herald sister paper with Gatehouse Media.

Minimum wage increase requires more study

D onald Trump is to conservatism as SpaghettiOs are to

Italian food: a distant, crude and almost unrecogniz-able cousin. But last year, many conservatives who had trouble rationalizing a vote for Donald Trump settled on one decisive reason. Justices appointed by President Hill-ary Clinton, they said, could not be trusted to faithfully follow the Constitution.

These strict construction-ists now find themselves with a president who regards the nation’s founding docu-ment as something between an irrelevance and a wad of gum stuck to his shoe. On Wednesday, he uttered statements that would have shocked conservatives had they come from Clinton or Barack Obama but were taken as inconsequential coming from Trump.

The president was angry with NBC News because it reported he had proposed a huge increase in the U.S. nuclear arsenal. He fumed that it is “frankly disgust-ing the way the press is able to write whatever they want to write” and threatened to punish the network by revok-ing its license to broadcast.

Trump has held up the late Antonin Scalia as his model of a justice. Scalia disdained the idea of a “liv-ing Constitution” — whose

meaning evolves over time. If Trump had his way,

the Constitution would be deader than the czars, though not quite in the way Scalia meant. When the president swore an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” he took it just as seriously as the debts he escaped in bankruptcy court.

Trump would start by amputating the First Amend-ment, which upholds the disgusting freedom of journalists to “write what-ever they want to write.”

Press freedom extends to broadcast news media, which are entitled to report and comment without gov-ernment interference. To suggest that the president has the authority to pun-ish allegedly inaccurate reporting by silencing a news organization betrays gargantuan ignorance.

But Trump’s empty threat flowed naturally from his past pronounce-ments on such matters. During the campaign, he vowed to change libel laws to make it easier for the likes of him to win libel suits.

His position is at war with one of the Supreme Court’s most important and unas-sailable decisions, reached in 1964. It said the First Amend-ment requires that citizens be able to express their views without fear of being pun-ished for inadvertent mis-statements. If Trump were thinking clearly, he would realize that existing libel law is his friend, because it immunizes him for his fraud-ulent claims about critics.

His three orders on

foreigners traveling to the United States so obviously stemmed from his campaign vow to ban all Muslims that administration lawyers implored judges to forget everything he had previously said. The judges didn’t. The first two travel orders were ruled unconstitutional, and the latest is being challenged.

He and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have spurned the January Justice Depart-ment report that found Chi-cago police guilty of “pattern or practice of unconstitu-tional use of force” — includ-ing killing people without a good reason. Barack Obama’s Justice Department wanted to prevent these abuses through a consent decree. Sessions has no interest in fixing or even noticing such problems.

Trump, then, told an audience of police officers in New York they should rough up suspects they arrest.

Trump’s supporters feared that if Clinton were elected, constitutional rights would be damaged over time by a liberal Supreme Court. Instead, they got a president who prefers to damage them immediately all by himself.

Trump declares war on Constitution

Democrats should focus on blue collar workers

There has been a lot of talking heads on TV talking about the republican divi-sions and how it is going to affect future elections. But I have not heard a lot about what demarcates are going to do in the 2018 congressional elections.

I do have so ideas that my offer them some help, first forget about President Trump, but now most inde-pendent voters know that he is a 6th grade bully with no idea how to govern and that he is certainly not the “great deal maker” he claimed to be. Hehas shown himself

to be the biggest liar in the known history of the presi-dency. He is going to keep is 30 present and demarcates should not worry or even consider them. Democrats have to entice the inde-pendent votes and ring back into the fold demar-cates that voted republican, some for the first time.

So what else should the democrats do, well they have to have a policy that is inclu-sive, not divisive, they have to show blue collar work-ers that they care not only about the poor and minori-ties but that they care for what used to be the work-ing union class that used to be solidly democratic.

Real wages for blue col-lar workers have not kept up and that alone should be a rallying cry for demarcates. Also demarcates have to offer a understanding that things in the United States are changing and offer job retraining and education, have a plan in great detail for the improvements to the inter-structure in our coun-try, state by state and what and how many jobs each new project will product and how much it is expected to cost.

They also have to show how these will be paid for, and to put to bed the myth that tax breaks for the rich and corporations help the middle class, history has

shown, no matter what the republicans say, that corporate tax breaks and reducing taxes on the rich do nothing for the middle class, but do a lot for the rich and the corporations.

In fact it could be a wise position to proposed rais-ing taxes on corporations after profits reach a certain percentage, making sure that people understand that corporation profits go to senior management and then to some stock-holders, and making sure that the public understand that one half of Americans do not own any stock.

Finally they have to talk about medical care, if as I

expect, demarcates gain a majority in either house, they should push and push hard for a single payer, consider-ing expanding Medicare in steps maybe in blocks of 5 year increments, first 65 to 60 then 60 to 55 and down until everyone is covered. Insurance companies will scream, but let them, they can always offer expanded coverage as they do now for Medicare. For Americans the cost of universal Medicare will be spread over the whole nation and no one will pay more than anyone else. That should make it an easy sell.

B E I R U T — U . S . -backed Syrian forces celebrated in the dev-astated streets of Raqqa on Tuesday after gaining control of the north-ern city that once was the heart of the Islamic S t a t e ’ s s e l f - s t y l e d caliphate, dealing a major defeat to the extrem-ist group that has seen its territory shrink ever smaller since summer.

Militants took over the vibrant metropolis on the Euphrates River in 2014, transforming it into the epicenter of their brutal rule, where oppo-nents were beheaded and terror plots hatched.

It took thousands of bombs dropped by the U.S.-led coalition and more than four months of grueling house-to-house battles for the Syrian Democratic Forces to recapture Raqqa, mark-ing a new chapter in the fight against the group whose once vast terri-tory has been reduced to a handful of towns in Syria and Iraq.

“Liberating Raqqa is a triumph for humanity, especially women,” who suffered the most under IS, said Ilham Ahmed, a senior member of the SDF political wing.

“It is a salvation for the will to live an honor-able life. It is a defeat to the forces of darkness,” said Ahmed, speaking to The Associated Press from Ein Issa, just north

of Raqqa.Fighters from the SDF

celebrated by chanting and honking their horns as they spun doughnuts with their Humvees and armored personnel car-riers, and hoisting yellow SDF flags around Naim, or Paradise Square.

The infamous square was the site of public beheadings and other killings by the militants. Bodies and severed heads would be displayed there for days, mounted on posts and labeled with their alleged crimes, according to residents who later dubbed it “Hell Square.”

Crumbled and flat-tened buildings stood behind the fighters as they drove around the square, a sign of the mas-sive destruction the city

has suffered since the militants took over. It was in Naim Square that the extremists paraded tanks and military hard-ware in 2014 in a chilling show of force that was a sign of things to come.

SDF commanders later visited Raqqa’s sports stadium, which IS had turned into a notori-ous prison. Dozens of militants who refused to surrender made their last stand earlier Tues-day holed up inside.

“Immortal martyrs!” chanted the men and women in SDF uniforms, saluting their com-rades who died battling for the city. According to the coalition, about 1,100 SDF forces have been killed fighting IS in Raqqa and Deir el-Zour.

“Military operations

in Raqqa have ceased and we are now combing the city for sleeper cells and cleaning it from land mines,” Brig. Gen. Talal Sillo told the AP earlier in the day.

A formal declaration that Raqqa has fallen would be made soon, once troops finish their clearing operations, Sillo said.

Col. Ryan Dillon, the Baghdad-based spokes-man for the U.S.-led coalition, was more cautious, saying only that “more than 90 per-cent” of Raqqa had been cleared.

He estimated about 100 IS militants were still in the city and said he expects the SDF to encounter “pockets of resistance” during the clearing operations.

BAGHDAD — Kurdish fighters pulled out of dis-puted areas across northern and eastern Iraq on Tues-day, one day after giving up the vital oil city of Kirkuk — a dramatic redeployment of forces that opened the way for government troops to move into energy-rich and other strategically impor-tant territories.

The vastly outnumbered Kurdish forces, known as the peshmerga, appeared to have bowed to demands from the central govern-ment that they hand over areas outside the Kurds’ a u t o n o m o u s r e g i o n , including territory seized from the Islamic State group in recent years.

The evacuations exposed a Kurdish leadership in turmoil in the wake of last month’s vote for inde-pendence as Iraq’s central government shores up its hand for negotiations over resource-sharing with the country’s self-ruling minority.

Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi acknowledged

the power shift, saying Iraqi forces took over the disputed areas from the Kurds with barely a shot fired.

“I call on our citizens to celebrate this day, because we have been united,” al-Abadi said, calling the independence vote “a thing of the past” as he offered to begin talks with the Kurd-ish regional government.

T h e d e v e l o p m e n t s followed weeks of politi-cal crisis precipitated by the Kurdish leadership’s decision to hold the refer-endum for independence in territories beyond the boundaries of its autono-mous region in northeast Iraq.

The Iraqi government, as well as Turkey and Iran, which border the land-locked Kurdish region, rejected the vote. The U.S. also opposed the vote, saying it was a distraction on the war against IS.

If the mood in Baghdad was triumphant, it was acrimonious in the Kurdish capital of Irbil, reflecting the sense among many Kurds that they had been betrayed — and by their own leaders.

PANAMA CITY — A clearer picture of who the city could be working with on the Panama City Marina Redevelopment project should emerge by the end of this week when Sonnen-blick Development delivers the letters of intent.

A mix of local and interna-tional companies are expected to be named when the letters are delivered by Sunday. Some companies developer Bob Sonnenblick said have signed on are Marriott Hotels for a SpringHill Suites, GAC Con-struction, Florida Architects,

Bellingham Marinas and ZHA consulting, to name a few.

“Each of these groups are the best qualified in the industry to help this project become a success for both ourselves and the City of Panama City,” said developer Bob Sonnenblick in an email.

The city was expecting to receive a mix of local and inter-national companies, according to City Manager Jeff Brown.

The letters of intent are non-binding, according to Brown, but it indicates who will likely be involved in the project and what their role will be. They also detail how the different participants will work with each other.

Having this information, Brown said, is essential to the feasibility studies as it helps determine what the studies should look at and if the par-ticipant’s roles make sense.

“The feasibility studies will show if the participants are financially viable,” Brown said.

Behind the scenes, Son-nenblick said the project is

continuing to evolve.“Our latest change has

been to increase the number of rental apartments from 50 units up to 150,” he wrote. “We (and the city officials) all feel that this will help enliven Downtown Panama City on a 24/7 basis.”

Whether these changes will be supported by the market is being determined now, as Son-nenblick is currently having a number of feasibility studies done to go over every aspect of the project.

These studies are expected to be completed by Feb. 1, at which point serious negoti-ating would begin between Sonnenblick and the city.

MEXICO BEACH — One week after tropical storm Nate barrelled into the region, the Mexico Beach Pier is still closed to the public.

The popular fishing pier is still being assessed after waves crashing over the top of it tore off the handrail-ing along the t-dock, broke several crossmembers and possibly caused shifting to some of the support poles.

The city had a structural engineer look at it last week, and an engineer from a dif-ferent company, Baskerville Donovan, looked at it again on Monday.

“He’s brought his data back to his office to do research and calculations,” said city administrator Mell Smigiel-ski. “He’ll let us know as quickly as possible.”

The city had hoped to have the pier reopened by Oct. 13.

PANAMA CITY —The St. Andrews Waterfront Part-nership is looking at how to get more bang for their buck in the upcoming year.

During their annual plan-ning meeting on Sunday, the partnership, which serves as the advisory board to the St. Andrews Community Rede-velopment Agency (CRA), took some time to reflect on the big picture of how they do business.

What they decided is

they want to become more intentional, particularly in the projects selected through their $40,000 grant program.

“We know we’re getting $40,000 for grants from the CRA, we want to sit down and start working on prior-itization, a list, of what we want to do,” said partner-ship board member Robbie Fehrenbach. “Do we want to businesses, residences, curb appeal stuff? What is it we want to do?”

Presently, Board Vice Chair Gradi Morgan said, people looking for a grant

money submit applications to the CRA. The process is broad and covers many types of projects.

Now, the partnership is looking to set the priorities they will think will serve the community best and then actively recruit people to apply for those types of grants.

As part of this, the part-nership will also be looking to create a pot of projects in the greater St. Andrews area — possibly outside the CRA boundaries — that would help the community, according to Commissioner

Mike Nichols who sat in on the meeting.

“If projects you see are beneficial let’s put them in a pot and let’s talk about them, because we might not be able to do them this year but maybe next year or years down the road,” Nich-ols said. “At least you’ll have those projects in line and prioritize those projects on where you will get the big-gest bang for your buck.”

What those projects could be is still to be determined, and Morgan said they will be

MIAMI — A lawsuit seek-ing disclosure of FBI files that may detail a U.S.-based support network for the 9/11 hijackers has reached a fed-eral appeals court, which is being asked by a Florida online publication to order a Freedom of Information Act trial on the dispute.

The case centers around reporting published by flor-idabulldog.org on the FBI’s investigation into a Saudi family that abruptly left its home in a gated Sarasota community two weeks before the 2001 terror attacks. One FBI document written in 2002 that was disclosed in court said agents had found “many connections” between the family and some of the hijack-ers who took flying lessons at a nearby airport, including ringleader Mohamed Atta.

Later, however, the FBI disputed its own docu-ment, telling a 9/11 review commission in 2015 that it was “poorly written and unsubstantiated.”

Staff report

NAVARRE — A Holley Navarre Middle School teacher was arrested Sunday after stabbing her husband with a pencil.

Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office responded to a Navarre home in reference to a domestic

violence disturbance Sunday between the hours of noon and 5 p.m.

The husband told SRSO that his 46-year-old wife was intoxicated when she came home that day.

He said that he was watching football when she grabbed a bag of chips from his hands and crushed it

and then began pushing and shoving him repeat-edly. The responding deputy said he could smell “an odor of (an) alcoholic beverage emanating” from the female.

The husband said he tried to get away, but was unable to while his wife continued to push and shove him,

according to the arrest report. At some point during the altercation, she stabbed a pencil into his upper right chest, breaking the skin and piercing his shirt.

She was charged with one count of battery, a misde-meanor, and taken to Santa Rosa County Jail without incident.

Veronica Green Posey, 64, charged with homicide and cruelty toward a child


PENSACOLA — A 325-pound Florida woman is charged with killing her 9-year-old cousin by sitting on the child as punishment.

Veronica Green Posey, 64, was arrested and

charged with homi-c i d e a n d cruelty toward a child. The Escambia County

Sheriff’s Office report identified Posey as the girl’s cousin.

Paramedics and deputies responded to the family’s Pensacola home following a 911 call Saturday. Posey told deputies she sat on Dericka

Lindsay as discipline “for being out of control.”

During the punish-ment, Dericka told Posey and two other adult rela-tives, who are identified in the report as the girl’s parents, that she couldn’t breathe. When Posey got up, Dericka wasn’t breath-ing. Authorities said Posey called 911 and started CPR on the child.

The arrest report said Grace Joan Smith, 69, and James Edmund Smith, are

charged with child neglect.Grace Smith called

Posey, who is her niece, to her house to help with dis-ciplining the girl, according to the report. She told investigators that Posey hit the girl with a ruler and metal pipe before the child ran to an armchair.

James Smith told inves-tigators that Posey sat on the girl for about 10 min-utes before she complained she couldn’t breathe. She stayed on the chair for an

additional two minutes before getting up, he said.

Mike Carroll, secretary of the Florida Department of Children and Families, issued a statement that

called the child’s death “appalling.” He said the agency will work with the sheriff’s office to hold those responsible for her death accountable.

CALLAWAY — Eating a family McDinner on Wednesday will benefit a local woman in her fight against breast cancer.Proceeds from McFam-ily Night, 4-7 p.m. at the McDonald’s at 121 N. Tyn-dall Parkway, will benefit “Walking for Tracy S.,”

Pier Park Drive.

PANAMA CITY BEACHBeach water death investigated

A calm day at the beach turned tragic Tuesday for one Indiana family after a man was found lifelessly floating face-down in the water.

Panama City Beach Police Department were withholding the victim’s name pending notifi-cation of next-of-kin, though they did say he was a 60-year-old male from Indiana. A cause of death has also yet to be determined.

With yellow flags flying on the beach, eyewit-nesses spotted the man floating around 4 p.m. about 200 yards out in the Gulf of Mexico just

First responders arrived a short time later and attempted to revive the unidentified man.Investigators had yet to determine what caused the man’s death.”We don’t know if he had a pre-vious medical condition,” said Lt. Will Bruhmiller. “We’ll be turning the body over to the medical examiner to determine a cause of death.”Officers reported the man had not been wearing diving equipment. The investi-gation is ongoing.

LYNN HAVENPolice catch man wanted for hitting pregnant woman

A Bay County man has been arrested for allegedly hitting his 7-month-pregnant girl-friend in the stomach with a bathroom door before head-butting her in the face, according to court records.

C a r l v o n S i m p s o n , 23, appeared in court Monday on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated battery on a pregnant woman. The

charges stem form a June 24 incident in which the Lynn Haven Police Department reported Simpson attacked the woman, pregnant with his child, before smash-ing her cell phone.

Simpson is being held on a combined bond of $10,000, court records stated. He is restricted from contacting the victim during the court proceedings. He could not be reached for comment.

According to LHPD reports, Simpson and the victim were in an argument at about 9:30 a.m. June 24 at an East 25th Street apartment over a cell phone. At some point, the argument turned physical, police reported.”Simpson hit her in the stomach with the bathroom door,” offi-cers wrote, “and before leaving the residence … Simpson head-butted (the victim) in the front of the face.”During the a r g u m e n t , S i m p s o n allegedly smashed the victim’s $700 cell phone, which was the subject of the argument. He left before officers arrived.Simpson had been sought

more than three months before being arrested Sunday. He had previ-ously been arrested in 2015 for misdemeanor domestic battery but that charge was dropped.

A Jackson County man has been arrested after deputies allegedly found drugs in his car, accord-ing to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office.

Derek Benefield, 27, was arrested and is in the Jackson County Correc-tional Facility to await first appearance. He is charged with possession of methamphetamine, marijuana, and drug paraphernalia.

JCSO reported that deputies were patrolling on Highway 69 in the Grand Ridge area when they pulled over a car. The officer smelled mar-ijuana coming from the car and allegedly found methamphetamine and marijuana during a search of the inside of the car.

Anoud al-Hijji, have denied having connec-tions with or supporting the hijackers. They now live overseas.

And the FBI's position is that it doesn't have to explain why it discounts its 2002 memo, despite details that were reported by the Bulldog and other media a decade after the attacks. Those 2011 stories on the Al-Hijjis focused on how neighbors had reported that they abruptly moved out of their home in an upscale, gated Sarasota com-munity before the 9/11 attacks, leaving behind

cars, clothes, furniture and even a refrigerator full of food. The possible connections to hijack-ers include gate records indicating some had vis-ited the home as well as telephone calls involving them.

D o c u m e n t s f i l e d Monday with the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta by attorneys for the web-site's parent company, Broward Bulldog Inc., seek an order overturn-ing a Miami judge's June decision not to have a FOIA trial over the FBI documents provided to the review commission. The FBI has asserted seven exemptions to the FOIA requirements, including that releasing

the files would endan-ger national security and expose law enforcement techniques.

"How much infor-mation concerning its investigation of the 9/11 attacks must the FBI share with the public? The answer, according to the district court, is very little," Bulldog attorney Thomas Julin wrote in the document, adding that the hidden records are "paramount to the nation's right to know how the FBI handled the investigation of 9/11."

The appeal also seeks an order enabling the Bulldog attorneys to take a sworn deposition of the FBI agent who told the 9/11 review commission to discount the Sarasota

"many connections" memo.

T h e a t t a c k s b y 1 9 hijackers in four planes in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania killed 2,977 people.

Separately, the Bro-ward Bulldog is awaiting a different judge's deci-sion on whether any or all of some 80,000 pages of files from the FBI's Sarasota investigation will be made public. U.S. District Judge William Zloch has been review-ing those documents in private since 2014, a n d a n n o u n c e d t h i s month that his review is complete.

Zloch has asked the FBI and the publication to suggest how he should rule.

wooden pier has sus-tained damage during a storm.

Earlier this year, a storm broke a cross-member — which also damaged the fiberglass pole — and the t-dock h a s a l s o s u s t a i n e d damage.

To fix this, the city is planning to apply Tri-umph Gulf Coast funds to replace the wooden pier with a concrete one. They’ve hired Basker-ville Donovan to help.

“There’s no question wooden piers sustain a lot more damage during

a storm,” Smigielski said. “Rather than fixing it time and time again, we want to build a con-crete one.”

As the fishing pier is one of the commu-nity’s main attractions enhancing it is a priority.

“It’s our number one goal,” Mayor Al Cathey said.

This is some hope among officials that the damage caused by Nate will help their appeal to the Triumph board. In the meantime, Smi-gielski said he did not yet have an estimate on what the work will cost.

Some of the repairs, such as the hand rail-ing, will likely be done in house.

BAY POINT — Like his counterparts on Mos-

ley’s girls team the day before, Dolphins’ No. 1 Noah Zediker knew he’d be playing in next week’s region golf tournament unless he fell down a hill.

Not so Bay’s Steven Johnson. There was no guarantee the Tornadoes were going to be one of the three boys teams advancing out of the District 2-2A golf tournament on Tuesday on the Nicklaus Course at Sheraton Bay Point Resort.

That put the onus on Johnson to shoot a score that in the least would gain him status as one of three individuals advancing to play at Tiger Point in Gulf Breeze on Monday.

Johnson took that to the extreme, making a routine par 4 on the closing hole to finish as second overall with a 4-over 76 amid windy conditions that inflated scores throughout team lineups.

Zediker double bogeyed No. 18 to card a 77, calling it his worst round of the season. But Mosley was able to win the team title by defeating Fort Walton Beach in a sudden-death playoff after they had tied at 314.

Bay did make it as a team, a late charge by the Tornadoes easily eliminating Arnold for the last team spot. Cam Page of Fort Walton Beach was medalist with a 75.

Bay’s qualifying relegated two Arnold play-ers into the individual slots for those whose teams did not automatically qualify. Mitchell Campbell and Andrew Creel of the Marlins were joined by Crestview’s Josh Huber.

Steven Johnson shot 76 on Tuesday to help Bay become one of three teams to advance to next week’s regional tournament.

LYNN HAVEN — Mosley’s 3-0 victory over Rutherford in Tuesday night’s District 1-6A semifinal may appear routine based on the score line. But for a Dolphins team without its head coach and best player, the situation was far from normal.

With coach Michelle Mask and daughter Lauren Mask away from the team with Michelle’s son and Lauren’s brother Dalton at Walter Reed Army Medical Center with a brain tumor, assistant coach Durand Yangson led the remaining Dolphins players to a 25-17, 25-14, 25-18 win over the Rams to advance to Thursday’s district title game against Arnold (13-12). The

Marlins won their semifinal matchup with Bay 3-0 in the first match of the night.

The Dolphins (15-9) had no issue getting into the win column Tuesday, but Yang-son said it has been a struggle for the Mosley players with-out their coach on the sideline or their senior leader out on the court.

“It’s tough. We had a tough practice yesterday,”

Yangson said. “When things get hectic, the girls usually look to Lauren to do some-thing. Yesterday, they were looking for Lauren and she wasn’t there, so someone had to step up tonight and Olivia (Whittle) stepped up as far as leadership. Anna Knight also did a good job running the offense for us and being vocal

NEW YORK — With a soaring shot headed for Yankee Stadium’s Mon-ument Park, Aaron Judge got New York back on track for another memo-rable October.

Judge ignited a rousing rally with a home run, then doubled during a four-run eighth inning to spur the unflappable New York Yankees over the Houston Astros 6-4 Tuesday night and tie the AL Championship Series 2-2.

T h e B a b y B o m b -ers trailed 4-0 against starter Lance McCullers Jr. until Judge homered leading off the seventh. He tied it with a line drive that nearly left the park in the eighth and scored when Gary Sanchez hit a go-ahead two-run double off loser Ken Giles.

The Yankees over-came three errors and have roared back from a second straight 0-2 series deficit — they beat Cleveland in the Division Series by winning three in a row to take that best-of-five matchup.

EBRO — PJ Wildest-dreams took over the lead by the second turn and cruised to the 2017 Gold Trophy Juvenile Stake title on Saturday night at Derby Lane.

Flamenco Dancer was second, the quiniela returning $38.20 and the perfecta $58. Bob’s Kelly was third, the trifecta worth $316.40 and Deco

Duke Grey was fourth for a $1,141.20 superfecta.

S E ’ s P u n i s h e r h a s the 1 box and is trying to maintain momen-tum from three wins in his last five starts in tonight’s sixth race at Derby Lane, simul-cast at Ebro Greyhound Park. LK’s Next Step is 13-17 in the trifecta with five wins, and Kentucky Boy is the morning-line favorite at 5-to-2. RT’s

Bo Jangles appears much the best in the 10th with 11 wins in 19 starts.

At Orange Park, Kells Caribbean is back in form with two wins in his last four outs for the evening 11th. Boc’s Andross has made 29 quinielas in 50 starts and Jedi Texas Acre has won for of his last six and 11-25 overall. LK’s Cen-turia has won 21-37 prior to the 15th at 660 yards

and RT Banana Foster is seeking a breakthrough win in Grade A after being short by a nose in her debut.

At Palm Beach, Tip Top likely will be bet down below $1 for the matinee 15th. He’s won four of five and 10-16 overall. The 76-pounder has been no worse than a close second in his last six starts and is 8-5 on the morning line.

Wildestdreams is Juvenile champJohnson figured that

he’d need to play well on Tuesday to ensure that he’d advance on that short list should the Tornadoes not go as a group.

“Especially with a lot of really good play-ers,” Johnson said. “I get pretty focused, but every once in a while I want to know how my teammates are doing.

“The wind was blow-ing good. It’s the same old cliché — you want to stay focused with every shot.”

M o s l e y h a d s h o t 303 while winning the county tournament on the same layout recently. The Dolphins have practiced and played extensively on the Nicklaus Course with renovation ongo-ing at Panama Country Club in Lynn Haven. Zediker said the condi-tions didn’t affect his score as much as his performance.

“It made it a little tougher, but you’ve still got to hit your shots,” Zediker said. “I did know that we’d still make it as a team.”

He also was in line to finish as medalist before hitting his approach on No. 18 into the tall grass that guards the

hazard to the right of the green. The best he could do from there was nudge his third shot into a greenside bunker.

Zediker thought the Dolphins’ higher team total actually might help them get overlooked in the region. They’ve been very balanced during much of the season and have three seniors in their top six.

Coach Josh Laatsch s a i d t h a t M o s l e y planned ahead by taking both the boys and girls squads for a practice round at Tiger Point recently. Mosley nar-rowly missed out on a state berth last October.

“Just to help them get a feel for it,” Laatsch said. “We’ve made some strides this season. They’ve got another year under their belts.”

Laatsch said that the team tie was settled after one playoff hole with the Nos. 1-5 play-ers on each squad going head to head. Mosley held a two-stroke edge to claim the crown.

24 assists along with 10 digs and five service points, while Whittle had a team-high 12 kills and two blocks. Ragan Kinard added 10 kills and Jaeli Jomalon eight. Jomalon also had 23 assists, 14 digs, and five service points. Tierra Tharp had eight service points, an ace, and 10 digs, while Bailey Wave had eight service points.

Rutherford briefly led in the opening set 7-6 after a kill by Katelyn Thompson, but a kill by Jomalon tied it up and sparked a run of five straight points, with a kill by Whittle, another by Jomalon, and another by Adonna Brown making it 17-9. An ace by Jomalon wrapped up the first set.

Mosley never trailed in the second set, jumping out to a 7-2 lead with a kill and four straight serves from Jaelyn Jomalon. An 8-1 Dolphins run capped off by an ace from Tharp made it 17-7, with a kill by Kinard on set point putting Mosley up 2-0 for the match.

The Rams took a 6-5 lead early in the third set on a kill by Kendall Cook, but Mosley stormed back by winning 16 of the next 19 points to take control. A kill by Brown gave the Dolphins a match point,

and an attacking error on Rutherford two points later ended the set and the match.

Arnold had just as easy of a time in its semifinal, cruising past the Tor-nadoes (12-14) 25-15, 25-10, 25-17. Katheryn Potemken and Gabbie Carlini had four kills each to lead the Marlins, with Sarah Livingstone adding three. Sydney Painter had a team-best four blocks, with Bailey

Hedden adding three service aces. Kaylan Gunning led the way with 12 assists, with Hedden following with nine.

The Marlins seized control in the first set from the start, winning seven of the first nine points and extending the lead to double figures thanks to four straight serves by Reece Rhodes to make it 24-12. A kill by Carlini wrapped up the first set. It was all

Arnold in the second set as well, with a run of 12 straight points featuring 11 straight serves from Hedden and three kills by Carlini turning a 4-5 deficit to a 16-5 lead.

The Marlins led throughout in the third set, using a 6-1 run to go up 20-14 after a kill by Potemken. A block by Painter closed it out on match point.

The Marlins and Dol-phins will meet up for the third time this season Thursday at 6 p.m. for the rubber match after the teams split their two regular season meet-ings. Yangson said he was expecting Lauren Mask to be back for the match and hoping that Michelle Mask would be back as well.

With everything going on away from the court, Yangson said it’s good for the Mosley players to have another big match to look forward to.

“ I t ’ s b e e n t o u g h because we have an emo-tional team,” he said. “Just talking about it, (the players) start tear-ing up and crying. It’s been tough and emo-tional for the girls, so we try to keep them busy and focused on the court so that they don’t have to think about what’s going on with the Mask family.”

An AL MVP candidate marred in a sluggish October, Judge sparked the Yankees by chasing McCullers, who baffled the Yankees with his power breaking ball.

Except for the last one.

Judge launched a curveball into the net-ting above center field’s Monument Park for New York’s second hit.

“Once we’re within striking distance like t h a t , a n y t h i n g c a n happen,” Judge said.

Houston manager A.J. Hinch pulled McCullers after 81 pitches, Didi Gre-gorius tripled off Chris Devenski and Sanchez brought Gregorius in with a sacrifice fly.

“I thought Aaron’s home run just lit a little spark,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

Todd Frazier led off the eighth with a double to left, and pinch hitter Chase Headley then did the same — only after falling between first and second base, taking one step back, then heading for second and sliding in ahead of Jose Altuve’s tag.

“Panic,” Headley recalled. “I went from one of the best feelings

of my career to one of the worst in just a matter of seconds, but fortunately it worked out.”

Brett Gardner brought in Frazier on a groundout, and Judge came to bat with the bundled crowd on its feet.

He reached down to stay with a slider and drilled a double high off the left-field wall as a fan in a longsleeve yellow shirt reached down and touched the ball. Gard-ner came home with the tying run, and Gregorius grounded a single just beyond shortstop Carlos Correa’s reach to put runners at the corner. Sanchez, who had been 0 for 13 in the series, scored them both with a slicing drive that skipped to the wall in right-center.

Houston had not lost consecutive games since Sept. 8-10 at Oakland and the major leagues’ best road record during the regular season. The Astros had just three hits and are hitting .153 in the series.

Yankees starter Sonny Gray pitched one-hit ball through five innings but again had no run support. His teammates have yet to score for him in four career postseason starts while he’s still on the mound, including twice with New York this year.

Houston took a 3-0 lead in the sixth after George Springer walked leading off, and Josh Red-dick reached on catcher’s interference by Austin Romine — inserted into lineup for his defense.

Robertson walked Altuve and struck out Carlos Correa before Yuri Gurriel lined a three-run double past Frazier and all the way to the wall. Gurriel got hung up between second and third as Altuve scored, and he was tagged out by Judge to end a rundown.

W A S H I N G T O N — Connor Brown scored the game-winning goal in the third period and Frederik Andersen stopped all 30 shots he faced for the shutout as the Toronto Maple Leafs continued their tremendous start by beating the Washington Capitals 2-0 on Tuesday night.

Toronto has won five of its first six games. Wash-ington has now lost two in a row since top defense-man Matt Niskanen went out with a long-term upper-body injury.

After getting a pro-m o t i o n t o t h e t h i r d line, Brown picked up his second goal of the season and broke a 0-0 tie with 14:07 left in the third. Brown corralled a rebound of Morgan Riel-ly’s point shot and poked the puck between Braden Holtby’s legs.

Holtby made 28 saves but couldn’t help as the Capitals’ offense couldn’t cash in on limited high-quality chances. Nazem Kadri scored an empty-net goal in the final minute.

PENGUINS 5, RANGERS 4: Sidney Crosby scored the tying goal with less than a minute remaining in regulation, Evgeni Malkin put in the winner 58 sec-onds into overtime and the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the struggling New York Rangers. Patric Hornqvist, Phil Kessel and ex-Ranger Carl Hagelin also scored for the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions, who handed New York (1-5-1) its fourth straight loss. Rangers captain Ryan McDonagh turned the puck over in overtime and

Kessel set up Malkin for the game-winning goal. Just before that, the Rang-ers iced the puck, leading to a faceoff in their zone.

FLYERS 5, PANTHERS 1: Sean Couturier, Shayne Gostisbehere, Claude Giroux and Dale Weise all scored in the second period to lead the Philadel-phia Flyers to a win over the Florida Panthers. The Flyers followed an 8-2 win against Washington with another dominant offen-sive effort, capped by the four-goal second. Wayne

Simmonds stole the show after the fourth goal when he dropped agitated Pan-thers center Michael Haley with a left-handed punch.

PREDATORS 4, AVA-LANCHE 1: Viktor Arvidsson and Roman Josi each scored a goal and added an assist to lead the Nashville Predators to a win over the Colorado Avalanche. Colton Sissons and Austin Watson also scored for Nashville, which has won three of their last four. Filip Forsberg and Alexei Emelin each had two assists and Pekka Rinne made 20 saves to earn his third victory of the season. Nathan MacKin-non had the lone goal for Colorado, losers of two straight.

CANUCKS 3, SENATORS 0: Brock Boeser and Alexan-der Burmistrov had a goal and an assist each in the Vancouver Canucks’ win over the Ottawa Senators. Thomas Vanek also scored for the Canucks (2-2-1), while Anders Nilsson made 32 saves for a shutout in his fi rst start of the season. Craig Anderson turned aside 21 of 24 in net for Ottawa (3-1-2).

N E W Y O R K — D a l l a s Cowboys star Ezekiel Elliott was granted another legal reprieve Tuesday night in the running back’s fight to avoid a six-game suspension over domestic violence allegations.

A New York federal judge issued a temporary restrain-ing order blocking the league’s suspension, clearing Elliott to play Sunday at San Francisco.

U.S. District Judge Paul Crotty’s ruling came five days after a federal appeals court overturned a Texas court’s injunction that had kept Elliott on the field.

Crotty granted the request for the restraining order pending a hearing before the presiding judge, Kath-erine Polk Failla, who is on vacation.

The NFL was ordered to appear before Failla on or before Oct. 30 to argue why the suspension should not be blocked by a preliminary injunction — the next step in the legal process — until the court can rule on challenges the players’ union brought against the suspension.

“We are confident our arguments will prevail in court when they are taken up again later this month,” NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said.

Elliott, last year’s NFL rushing leader as a rookie, was barred from the team’s facility Tuesday as players returned from their off week. The NFL placed him on the suspended list Friday, a day after the league’s favorable ruling from the 5th U.S. Cir-cuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans.

The 22-year-old Elliott was suspended in August by Commissioner Roger Goodell after the league con-cluded following a yearlong investigation that he had several physical confronta-tions in the summer of 2016 with Tiffany Thompson, his girlfriend at the time.

Prosecutors in Columbus, Ohio, decided not to pursue the case in the city where Elliott starred for Ohio State, citing conflicting evidence, but the NFL did its own investigation. Elliott denied the allegations under oath during his NFL appeal.

T h e s u s p e n s i o n ’ s announcement in August led to weeks of court fil-ings, with NFLPA lawyers c o n t e n d i n g t h a t l e a g u e investigators withheld key evidence from Goodell and that the appeal hearing was unfair because arbitrator Harold Henderson refused to call Goodell and Thompson as witnesses.

ALAMEDA, Calif. — W i t h a s t r o n g - a r m e d quarterback, one of the best pass-blocking offen-sive lines and a pair of talented receivers on the outside, the Oakland Raid-ers have all the ingredients to stretch the field with the deep pass.

That has been far from the case so far this season and is a major reason the Raiders (2-4) have strug-gled so much offensively during a four-game losing streak.

Oakland is tied for the fewest deep completions this season with just two, a development that surely would have irked late owner Al Davis, who believed strongly in the value of throwing deep.

“We definitely want to be able to do that,” quarter-back Derek Carr said. “Now does that mean we’re going to do anything differently or trying to force things? Absolutely not. That’s where you get in trouble. That’s something that I’ve learned in my career. You can’t force it. You just have to work hard and let it happen.”

It hasn’t happened much yet as Carr has completed just one of eight passes a 64-yard touchdown to Johnny Holton in Denver that was thrown at least 20 yards downfield, according to SportRadar. Backup E.J. Manuel also has one deep completion but it’s a far cry from a year ago when Carr was 25 for 52 on deep passes that helped fuel Oakland to a 12-win season.

With Marshawn Lynch adding power to the run-ning game and Jared Cook offering a strong receiving target at tight end to com-plement receivers Michael Crabtree and Amari Cooper, the Raiders figured to be even better offensively this season.

They appeared on that track when they scored 71 points and committed no turnovers in winning the first two games. But Oak-land has gotten nothing going the past few weeks, failing to top 17 points or 300 yards in the four straight losses.

“I don’t think there’s a single guy that can look back

over the last few weeks and say, ‘You know what, I’m really pleased with how I’ve played over the last three weeks,’ or, ‘Called the last three weeks’ or, ‘Coached my position the last three weeks,”’ offensive coordi-nator Todd Downing said. “We all own this together. There’s no one guy that is going to save it or break it or anything in between.”

Carr was supposed to be the person to carry this offense. He emerged as a star in 2016 in his third year in the NFL and signed a contract worth $125 million in the offseason that briefly made him the league’s high-est-paid player.

But his production has dropped in almost every category this year. The only exception is he is completing a career-best 68.3 percent of his passes. Much of that improvement is a result of Carr getting rid of the ball quickly and rely-ing almost solely on short passes.

After throwing nearly one-third of his passes at least 10 yards downfield a year ago, Carr has thrown less than one-quarter that far this season. His average completion has been caught 4.6 yards down field, down significantly from his 6.0 mark a year ago and second-lowest in the league.

“When you turn the film on, you look at the plays and you know you’re taking check downs and those are going for 10 and 12 (yards). How can you be mad at that?” Carr said. “If that’s what they’re giving you, you have to take it. I could sit back there and force a lot of throws and that’s not some-thing that I’ve ever done. I try my best not to put our team in harm’s way.”

Carr and the offense will try to reverse the slide Thursday night when they face a Chiefs defense they have struggled against in recent years. Kansas City has won the past five meet-ings between the teams and Carr’s 68.1 passer rating against the Chiefs is his lowest against any team he has faced more than once in his career.

But Downing remains confident he has the right players and right schemes and sees a breakthrough coming soon.

Raiders’ inability to go deep leads to struggles


CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Carolina Panthers are faced with the difficult task of replacing three-time All-Pro Luke Kuechly for the third time in three seasons.

Only this time they don’t have A.J. Klein to fill in at middle linebacker.

Kuechly is back in the NFL concussion protocol after taking a blow to the head in Carolina’s 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night. He attended practice on Tuesday but did not participate. Coach Ron Rivera said Kuechly is “advancing” in the NFL proto-col, but said his status remains unclear for Sunday when the Panthers (4-2) visit the Chicago Bears (2-4).

Kuechly spent three weeks in the NFL concussion protocol in 2015 and 2016 and has missed nine games altogether in the previous two seasons.

“You can’t replace Luke Kue-chly,” said Julius Peppers. “...

He leaves a void in the defense. He’s the main communica-tor, his leadership, all of those things we miss out there. ... But you can’t replace players like that. He’s a special guy.”

With Klein having signed a big free agent contract with the New Orleans Saints this offseason, the task of filling in for Kuechly falls on third-year linebacker David Mayo.

Mayo has never started a game and primarily plays on special teams.

The Panthers’ fifth-round draft pick in 2015 struggled in pass coverage against the Eagles. When Kuechly took a blow to the head and neck area and left the game in the second quarter the Panthers hadn’t allowed a touchdown. The Eagles scored three TDs after he left the game.

Panthers safety Mike Adams said trying to fill Kuechly’s shoes isn’t an easy task.

Adams has spent 16 sea-sons in the NFL and said he’s never played with a linebacker

who has the ability to call out an opponent’s plays before they happen the way Kuechly can. When Adams arrived in Carolina, he made a point to start studying game film with Kuechly.

“I’m like, ‘I have to get in the room with that guy,”’ Adams said.

But Adams said after spend-ing months with Kuechly he’s still not quite sure how he does it.

“If I could tell you how it happened, believe me I would do it myself,” Adams said with a laugh. “That’s why he’s spe-cial. He just knows.”

Rivera played with Mike Singletary and coached Brian Urlacher in Chicago, and said both linebackers have similar qualities to Kuechly in their ability to know what play was going to be run before it was called.

He also said teammates have come to rely on Kuechly, the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year in 2013.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs have played nearly a season’s worth of games against the AFC West without a loss, dominating one of the tough-est divisions in football with ruthless efficiency.

They’ve figured out a way to solve their nemesis, the Broncos. They’ve found a solution to their hated rival, the Raiders. They’ve cer-tainly had their way with the also-rans, the Chargers.Good luck trying to explain how they’ve done it.”I wish I could tell you,” Smith said, when asked about the string of 12 straight division wins, which the Chiefs hope to push to 13 when they visit Oakland on Thursday night.”I wish I had the secret,” he said. “I’m sure it’s a ton of things. It’s ultimately about the 53 guys. It’s about us scratching and fighting and clawing for the smallest of little victories that end up being the difference to winning these games, because the margins are so small.”

Well, not so small against the Raiders. The Chiefs have

won five straight and seven of their last eight against Oakland, and those five most recent haven’t been particu-larly close. Only one of them has been decided by less than a touchdown, and that was a 23-17 victory in January 2016. The rest have mostly been lopsided.

Smith has been just as dominant against the Raiders, going 9-1 in a career that began with games for San Francisco. He’s thrown 19 touchdown passes and just four inter-ceptions against them. So yes, there’s been a measure of dominance.

But not even Smith knows why.”Maybe it’s because we know (the division) and we’ve been playing in it for a while now,” he said. “Top to bottom, this division is tough. It’s tough, competitive and there’s a great rivalry with every team.

Every one of these games seems to come down to the end. Every one is pretty good.”Reid has had similar success against the Raiders, going 7-1 against them since taking over Kansas City’s franchise.

Chiefs still best of the West

CLEVELAND — Bos-ton’s Gordon Hayward broke his left ankle just five minutes into the season, a grisly injury t h a t o v e r s h a d o w e d Kyrie Irving’s return to Cleveland and the Cav-aliers’ 102-99 win over the shocked Celtics on Tuesday night.

LeBron James scored 29 points — 13 in the fourth quarter — in his most extensive action in three weeks because of a sprained left ankle. He also fed Kevin Love for a

critical 3-pointer with 46.3 second left to put the Cavs up 102-98.

Irving, who asked to be traded this summer after six seasons in Cleveland, had a chance to tie it with a 3-pointer at the horn but missed. Irving then shared a warm embrace with James, his team-mate for three seasons.

Irving finished with 22 points for the Celt-ics, who overcame an 18-point deficit in the third and led with 2:04 left.

Love had 15 and Der-rick Rose 14 in his debut for the Cavs.

SPORTS TICKERIN BRIEF

New Nebraska AD gets $1.25M if he stays 5 years

Bill Moos will receive a payment of $1.25 million if he still is Nebraska’s athletic director at the end of 2022, and he is eli-gible for some $500,000 in bonuses each year if teams achieve certain academic and on-field thresholds.

D e t a i l s o f M o o s ’ employment agreement were released by the uni-versity on Tuesday.

Moos, who has been Washington State’s athletic director since 2010, was introduced as Nebraska’s AD on Sunday. He signed his five-year contract Friday. He starts at Nebraska Monday.

Moos’ starting annual base salary is $1 million. His contract calls for him to earn $1.05 million in 2019, $1.1 million in 2020, $1.15 million in 2021 and $1.2 million in 2022.

There are three areas w h e r e h e c a n e a r n bonuses: academic per-formance, overall athletic performance and football performance.

Moos will receive $125,000 if the depart-ment-wide, two-year average NCAA Aca-demic Progress Rate is 970 or better; $137,500 if the APR is 985 or better. NCAA rules require teams to achieve a minimum of 930 to qualify for post-season play. In the most recent NCAA report for Nebraska (2015-16), no team had an APR lower than 977 and 17 sports were at 985 or higher.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.Giants end suspension for CB Rodgers-Cromartie

T h e G i a n t s h a v e e n d e d t h e i r s u s -p e n s i o n o f v e t e r a n cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie for insubordination.

T e a m o f f i c i a l s announced Tuesday that Rodgers-Cromartie was reinstated to the active roster after missing the team’s game against Denver on Sunday night.

The team says Rodg-ers-Cromartie met with coach Ben McAdoo on Tuesday morning, then was taken off of the reserve/suspended by club list.

The 31-year-old vet-eran was suspended for leaving the team facility before practice last week. He also left the bench then returned in the second half of the Giants’ loss to the Chargers, a move that prompted McAdoo to make Rodgers-Cromartie inactive for the Broncos game.

NEW YORKSan Antonio Stars moving to Las Vegas

Las Vegas is getting a WNBA franchise.

The San Antonio Stars are moving to the gam-bling mecca after being bought by MGM Resorts International, the league said Tuesday.

The team will join the NHL as a second profes-sional team in Las Vegas — with the NFL soon to follow. The Stars begin play next season with home games at the Man-dalay Bay Events Center. Bill Laimbeer will be the team’s president of bas-ketball operations and coach.

NEW YORK — NFL players and owners held an unusual meet-ing Tuesday to discuss social issues, a session both sides termed posi-tive and productive.

What was not dis-cussed at any length was the divisive topic of the national anthem that has caught the atten-tion of President Donald Trump.

“We spent today talk-ing about issues that the players are trying to bring attention to,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said. “That was the entire focus.”

Asked if the players committed to stand-ing during the anthem, Goodell responded: “We did not ask for that.”

A group of 11 owners and more than a dozen players met for more than two hours at the league’s headquarters. Among the topics dis-cussed was enhancing the players’ platforms for speaking out on social issues.

“We heard what they had to say and they heard us,” Miami Dol-phins owner Stephen Ross said. “It’s open talks and that’s a good thing.”

The NFL’s policy on the national anthem did not come up. That policy states that the players “should” stand for the anthem, and some have suggested the league would seek to change that to “must” stand. Goodell said in a memo to the teams last week that the NFL prefers for players to stand during “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

“Very little of the meeting was about the actual anthem,” Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins said. “We were really more talking about solu-tions and how we get the results that we want to get.”

Ross called the ses-sion “constructive,” and Colts defensive back Darius Butler termed it “positive.”

Goodell spoke briefly before heading to fur-ther league meetings. He emphasized the commit-ment on the part of the players and the NFL “to work together on issues of social justice.”

“Our players are men of great character,” he added, “and they have a deep understanding and tremendous knowledge of the issues going on in all our communities. This is something our owners said we want to support you in.”

Butler, who played Monday night in Nash-ville before attending the meeting hours later, said both sides are headed in the right direction. He said the players deliv-ered “our perspective. Obviously it’s a differ-ent perspective. I think that’s the most impor-t a n t t h i n g w h e n i t comes to these issues is perspective and respect-ing everyone’s rights regardless of how they feel.”

DIVERSIONS

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Just because the solution is neat and plausible doesn’t make it right. You’ll investigate a little deeper, put theories to the test, ask opin-ions of the young, fresh faces and old-timers and, fi nally, get to the bottom of this.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You once felt so anchored into a cer-tain belief system that you now, for reasons that are still forming, are starting to doubt. Let this be a sign that your mind is open, as great minds tend to be.GEMINI (May 21-June 21) — Your quickness to laugh might get you in trouble every once in a while, but usually it’s an asset. You fi nd that it’s just easier to get things done when you have a sense of humor about them.CANCER (June 22-July 22) — Like a child who loads up a plate at the buffet table and then can’t eat nearly the quantity, you’ve ambitions you may not be able to digest. So go in slowly. You can always go back for more later if you need to.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Every

single person on the earth has had past misfortunes, even a newborn baby (birth is no picnic). So you’ll be slow to call anyone out, honk your horn in traffi c or get overly frustrated with the general inconvenience of (SET ITAL)other people.(END ITAL)VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — There are many things you can give a person that do not cost money and are in fact more valuable than money. Hope, kindness, attention and affection are free, and you’ll wisely be generous with them now.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — The advances in thought come when you mix categories. This could mean genres, disciplines, cul-tures, genders, ages and more. Cross-pollination will bring the best solutions.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) — You’re at a crucial juncture in a project or relationship. You can’t stay where you stand now, but there’s something blocking the path, too. Still, you can either fi nd a way to move forward or fi nd an excuse not to.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Some of the work you’ve been doing is unnecessary. That’s OK! You couldn’t have known what was necessary before you started. As you drop the superfl u-ous actions, you’ll get faster and more elegant.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Just because a person isn’t unkind doesn’t mean that person is good or right for you. Neglect is often worse than meanness. You deserve respect, attention and support. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Even though there are so many miracles around for you to appreciate, not everything can be profound, because that would mean that nothing is. A new sense of purpose will help you prioritize and focus accordingly.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Measure the distance between you and the outcome you now desire to see if it’s even possible to get there in one move, because today’s problem isn’t like a ladder; it’s more like a chasm. It can’t be bridged in two steps.

Plans to attend bachelor party cause man’s girlfriend angst

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend of two years will be attend-ing a bachelor party in Las Vegas. We’ve never had any issues of infidelity, yet I can’t help but feel anxious about his upcoming trip. I know the scene that exists in Vegas — I’m in my mid-20s and I enjoyed my trips there when I was younger and single.

I’m worried about him and his friends going to strip clubs, topless pool parties, etc. I don’t mind him enjoy-ing a trip and going out with the boys, but I think attending an event with nudity is disre-spectful to the other person

when you’re in a long-term, serious relationship. I don’t want him to feel he has to tell his friends he can’t go to those things. What are your thoughts on this? — WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS ...

DEAR WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS: You and your boy-friend are both adults. View-ing topless entertainment or attending a topless pool party is not infidelity. If he hasn’t given you any reason to worry so far, give him the benefit of the doubt. P.S. By the way, I have heard that some bachelorette parties can be equally wild. Do you plan to swear off them yourself?

DEAR ABBY: I’m a doctor. I give free medical advice to my cousin and her mother several times a month, and have for quite some time now. I do it free of charge because we are family and there’s a close bond

between us. My cousin works in marketing, so I asked her if she could help me design my presentation card. She replied that she would give me three designs to choose from, and it would cost roughly $100. I feel it’s wrong for her to charge me for her service since I’ve never charged her. — FREE OF CHARGE IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR FREE OF CHARGE: It’s possible your cousin was asking to be reimbursed for the cost of the MATERIALS involved in creating the cards for you. Before you allow yourself to get into a snit, per-haps you should clarify exactly what you would be paying for.

GREAT GRILLED CHEESEWhile few things can compare to an old-fashioned grilled cheese sandwich, adding any of these ingredients will bring your eating experience to a whole new level, according to NPR.

Giardiniera. This hot and tangy mixture of pickled vegetables will electrify a sandwich.

Veggies. Avocado, spinach and sun-dried tomatoes are among the best things you can do for a grilled cheese sandwich.

UNUSUAL USES FOR GADGETThe food dehydrator is one handy kitchen gadget if you can think beyond the usual dried fruit and tomatoes. Check out these ideas from DehydratorBook.com.

Fire starter: Dry sections of orange peel, and at the next bonfi re simply light and set in the kindling. The orange oil will add a nice spicy aroma.

Potpourri or herbal tea: Your favorite herbs, fl owers and spices can be transformed into scented sachets or a cup of soothing refreshment.

BOOST YOUR BRAINAccording to Harvard Medical School, research has uncovered some seasonings that can benefi t the brain.

Nutmeg: Studies show nutmeg has compounds that boost mood, relieve pain, lower blood pressure and may even slow cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease.

Cardamom: 1/2 a teaspoon per day can normalize blood pressure and lower stroke risk.

Sweet potatoes always a palate pleaser

O ctober is the month when culinary minds turn to reci-

pes using pumpkin, but I must admit that my mind thinks of sweet potatoes.

I have always preferred sweet potatoes. This is probably because I never remember my mother cooking with pump-kin, but she could make some great palate pleas-ers with sweet potatoes.

While looking through some old recipe files, I was

surprised to find a recipe for Sweet Potato Coco-nut Streusel Cheesecake. This gourmet dessert from Southern Living’s “Little Book of Cheesecakes” makes my mouth water just to think about it.

• 26 round buttery crackers, crumbled• 1 /4 cup fi nely chopped pecans• 1 /4 cup fl aked coconut• 3 tablespoons butter, melted• 3 tablespoons all-purpose fl our• 1 tablespoon brown sugar• 2 tablespoons butter• 1 /4 cup fl aked coconut• 1 /4 cup pecan pieces• 2 (8 oz. each) cream cheese, softened

• 1 /2 cup fi rmly-packed light brown sugar• 1 /2 cup cooked, mashed sweet potatoes• 1 /4 cup Kahlua or other coffee liqueur• 1 /4 teaspoon cinnamon• 2 large eggs

Garnishes: Sweetened whipped cream and ground cinnamon

Combine fi rst 4 ingredients. Stir well. Firmly press crumb mixture onto bottom and 1 inch up sides of a 7-inch springform pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool.

Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Combine fl our and 1 tablespoon brown sugar; cut in 2 tablespoons butter with a pastry blender until mixture is

crumbly. Stir in ¼ cup coconut and ¼ cup pecan pieces. Set mixture aside. Cover and chill.

Beat cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add ½ cup brown sugar, beating well. Add sweet potatoes, Kahlua and 1 /4 teaspoon cinnamon.

Beat on low speed until blended. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Pour batter into prepared crust. Bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes.

Remove cheesecake from oven. Sprinkle coconut mixture over top. Bake 25 more minutes.

Let cheesecake cool to room temperature in pan on a rack. Cover and chill. Garnish, if desired.

B eing a child of the North, I never ate succotash. My introduction to the word came via the exasperated

utterances of Sylvester the Cat, who would sputter “Suffering succotash!” when things were not going his way.

A staple of the South, succotash fed people through hardship and depres-sion, as it did the Native Americans who invented it. The indigenous root of the name relates variously to cracked corn, boiled corn or other preparations of corn. As Native American cultures are known to have understood, when beans are added to corn, complete protein happens.

“Seaboard Algonquin” specifically, says food historian Michael Twitty, author of “The Cooking Gene,” field-ing my succotash questions via Twit-ter. Twitty also admitted to not liking succotash very much, at least the tra-ditional version made with lima beans.

I have to admit, I haven’t found a way to really like it myself when it’s made with lima beans, or black beans, or kidney beans, or any number of other shelling beans.

Combined with the corn kernels, the dish becomes too seedy, and I much prefer making it with string beans. The protein isn’t as high, but that deficit can be erased with bacon and mayonnaise (one of my favorite healthy cooking tricks).

Twitty steered me toward a south-ern Louisiana version of succotash, macque choux, that does not contain shelled beans but does allow the likes of tomatoes, green bell peppers, onions, garlic and celery. And bacon, of course.

And shrimp, unsurprisingly. It’s a model roughly in keeping with my own protocols, minus the shrimp.

Without the shell beans, a pan of succotash becomes like a pan of fried rice. Along with string beans and the above ingredients, one can use other veggies like collard greens, zucchini and hot, sweet and roasted peppers.

Allen Broach, who comes from an old Southern family and has fond memories of his grandma’s succo-tash, has given me some of my best recipes. He’s fine with people using string beans in succotash, although the closest they ever came growing up was to use “shellies,” the beans inside overgrown string beans.

Here is his family recipe, which is lima bean-based.

Grannie Smith’s Succotash

• Equal amounts of baby lima beans and corn cut from the cob. You should also “milk” the cob once the corn is cut off by scraping the cob with a knife to get all the juice from it.

• Use bacon drippings and sauté the limas for a couple of min-utes. Season with salt and pep-per then add water to cover and cook until they are nearly done.

• Add a small onion, diced, and the corn. Cook until the corn is done. Most of the liquid should be cooked out. Just a few minutes.

That was it.Broach confessed to having modi-

fied grandma’s recipe by adding any number of the following to the average batch of succotash.

• 4 tablespoons butter• Garlic (minced)• 1 cup whole grain hominy• 1 pound cooked beef brisket or country ham, chopped• 2 oz. salt pork in one piece• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste• 1 boiling potato (about ½ pound) such as Yukon gold, boiled and diced• 1 small turnip, boiled and diced

• 1 /4 cup or so chopped red or green bell pepper (or a combination)

Among other parts of this recipe, I was intrigued by his country ham idea, so I picked one up at the farmers mar-ket, brought it home and diced it up. Into the pan it went, and as the greasy cubes sizzled pleasantly, I proceeded to prep the veggies, adding them in layers, in the order of how much cook-ing they need. After the meat, which sometimes includes deer meat as well as the ham/bacon, I will add the onions, then the beans, then peppers, diced zucchini, butter and olive oil as nec-essary, and finally the corn on top. I let it cook like this undisturbed for a while, allowing the meat at the bottom to cook in the accumulating juices.

When it’s finally time to stir, some-where between when the veggies give up all of their moisture and when the bottom starts to burn, I add minced or grated garlic and dried thyme, and stir it up. I’ll stir again once or twice until it’s ready, and serve with cheese, parsley, salsa, roasted pep-pers and whatever else. Succotash, like the kitchen sink, can absorb practi-cally anything you can throw at it.

Here’s an ease-into-fall appetizer that will make you look like a culinary rock star - even with entry-level skills and not much time to spend in the kitchen. You build the dish from the bottom up,

starting the caramelization of onions on the stove top. Pinches of pungent cheese nestle into the background of sweet, meaty walnuts and mushrooms under a blanket of puff pastry that becomes the crisped, golden base once you invert the tart for serving.

Oniony tarte Tatin is one-pan heavenBy Joe Yonan

The Washington Post

I love my sheet pans, I do. Just about every Sunday, as I’m sure I’ve said before, I spend most of the afternoon rotat-ing them in and out of my oven, as I roast veg-etable after vegetable. I use those vegetables in various combinations and with various sauces and toppings in grain bowls, salads, pastas, soups, stews and more.

Making chili in a sheet pan

Sheet Pan Chili [ GORAN KOSANOVIC/THE WASHINGTON POST]

If you’re serving this as a main course, pair it with a green salad.

Ingredients• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil• 4 or 5 small yellow onions, halved lengthwise• 8 ounces frozen/defrosted puff pastry dough, such as Dufour (about half a pack-age; see tip)• 1 ½ tablespoons dark brown sugar• Kosher salt• 8 ounces mushrooms, preferably a mix, such as chanterelles, king trumpet and oyster, stemmed, rinsed well and chopped if large• ½ cup walnut halves• 6 ounces blue cheese, preferably CabralesStepsHeat the oil in a 9-inch heavy, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Arrange the onion halves around the pan, cut sides down. Reduce the heat to medium-low; cook for about 20 minutes, until softened and colored slightly on the bottom.Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Unfold the pastry dough and roll out between parchment paper to a thin, 10-inch round; it’s OK if the dough has creases.Sprinkle the brown sugar

around the pan with the onions, then season lightly with salt. Once the brown sugar looks like it is melt-ing into the oil, distribute the mushroom pieces and walnuts around, using them to fi ll in nooks and crannies. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, then remove from the heat.

Dot the pan with pinches of the cheese.

Invert the dough over the contents of the pan. Press and tuck the dough around the edges of the fi lling. Transfer to the middle rack of the oven; roast for 25 to 35 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through . Transfer to a wire rack for 5 minutes, then invert a plate over the pastry.

Invert the pan to transfer the tarte Tatin onto the plate; if some pieces do not make the transfer, pop them back into place. .

Cut into wedges; serve warm.

TIP: Dufour brand puff pastry is made with butter and works best in this recipe. It is available at Bal-ducci’s stores and at Whole Foods Markets.

Onion mushroom tarte Tatin

We found that a shovel-type spatula with a fl at edge works well for stirring and serving the chili in the pan. Veggie crum-bles give this oven-roasted chili a hearty texture, but you can leave them out.

There’s a fair amount of fi ne chopping here; you can use a food processor.

Serve with corn bread or tortilla chips, or spoon it over macaroni and cheese.

Adapted from “Sheet Pan Sup-pers Meatless: 100 Surprising Vegetarian Meals Straight from the Oven,” by Raquel Pelzel (Workman, 2017).

Ingredients• 1 medium red onion, fi nely chopped (1 cup)• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil• 1 teaspoon kosher salt, or more as needed• ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper• 2 medium red bell peppers, stemmed and seeded; 1 fi nely chopped, the other cut into ¾ -inch pieces• 2 medium green bell peppers, stemmed and seeded; 1 fi nely chopped, the other cut into ¾ -inch pieces

• 2 cloves garlic, minced• 1 tablespoon chili powder• 1 teaspoon ground cumin• 1 teaspoon dried oregano• ½ teaspoon Spanish smoked paprika (pimentón; sweet or hot)• ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper• 26 ounces (3 ¼ cups) canned, no-salt-added chopped toma-toes, and their juices• About 11 ounces (3 cups) crumbled tempeh or veggie crumbles, such as Morning Star Farms brand (optional)• One 15-ounce can no-salt-added black beans or pinto beans, drained and rinsed• 1 cup water• ¼ cup fi nely chopped fresh cilantro• Chopped avocado, for serving• Thinly sliced scallions, for serving• Shredded cheese, for serving (optional)• Sour cream, for serving (optional)

StepsPreheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Toss the red onion with the oil, ½ teaspoon of the salt and the pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast (middle rack) until the onion is soft and just

starting to brown, about 12 minutes.

Add the fi nely chopped red and green bell peppers (reserve the ¾ -inch pieces), the garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper. Stir to combine and cook until the peppers are soft, about 10 minutes.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and add the tomatoes, tempeh or veggie crumbles, if using, the black beans, the ¾ -inch bell pepper pieces, water and the remain-ing ½ teaspoon salt, stirring gently to incorporate.

Carefully cover the baking sheet with aluminum foil, crimping it loosely around the edges; it’s good to use oven mitts for this.

Roast (middle rack) for about 45 minutes, stirring midway through the cooking, until the large pepper pieces are tender and the pan liquid has reduced somewhat. Taste and add more salt, as needed.

Divide among bowls; serve warm, topped with cilantro and serve with toppings of your choice.
