When he signed the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) into law more than a decade ago, President George W. Bush wanted to end a dark side of incarceration that is often taken lightly.

So lightly, that the mention of the word jail in many conversations often includes a reference to “not dropping the soap.”

And Charlotte County’s jail com-mander will be the first to say the possibility of an inmate being sexually assaulted or harassed is no laughing matter.

“Historically, there seems to be the perception that there is joking around these issues in corrections,” said Charlotte County Sheriff’s Bureau of Detention Commander Maj. Earl Goodwyne. “But that’s a problem. It has to be taken seriously. These (inmates) are here under our care, custody and control. I’m ultimately accountable for their health, safety and welfare while they’re here.”

That’s why Goodwyne is proud that the Charlotte County Jail was one of the first jails in the state to have satisfied or exceeded about four dozen

ENGLEWOOD — Cats in the 13th Street neighbor-hood are disappearing.

Friends Sue Hoots and Darcy Swanson and a few other neighbors are extreme-ly concerned that someone is trapping, shooting and

killing them.“They (cats) have been dis-

appearing at about one a day for more than a month now,” Hoots said. “It’s horrible.”

The women say they love cats and so do most of their neighbors. They have their own cats as well as a feral cat colony. The colony was created after renters moved

out and left the cats behind. It was a frequent occurrence in the neighborhood. So the women worked with a couple of veterinarians in Venice and Sarasota to capture the cats and have them spayed and neutered and then released back into a feral cat colony near their 13th Street homes.

The women feed them and give them water. They know that neutering the cats creates a less stressful environment for them, as well as the neighbors who care for them. Neutered cats also are less likely to fight with other cats.

Attorney Geri Waksler has always been an advocate for education, whether it’s for her clients regarding land-use matters or her own children growing up.

Fifteen years ago, she didn’t like the preschool options available to her son, so she teamed with other parents and formed a Montessori school,

providing 30 children added freedom for thought and development.

“We didn’t know enough to know it was something we didn’t have the ability to do,” she said.

This school went on to become Charlotte Academy, where she served seven years on the board.

Consequently, when she was invited to be part of Leadership Florida, a statewide program created

by the Florida Chamber of Commerce, Waksler knew what she wanted to study most in class.

“It’s just wonderful to talk to people on topics such as education,” Waksler said, “and find out how other areas of the state are dealing with the issue.”

Waksler sees the inter-active group discussions, carried out among leaders in their field, as the annual program’s biggest benefit.

She said the fresh ideas and viewpoints illuminate every social and economic subject they explore.

Meeting in different regions of the state, mem-bers receive broad insight to the problems facing the Sunshine State. The sessions last two to three days, enough time for field trips, mock exercises and guest speakers.

Leadership Florida: Winning friends, influencing peopleBy GARY ROBERTS

Kristen Madden knows all the challenges of being a single mom — and then some.

The Port Charlotte High graduate has been a mom since the age of 17 but the nor-mal obstacles that have to do with working and being both a father and mother have been compounded by her youngest daughter’s physical and mental challenges.

“My youngest (Janise) is ADHD and bipolar and she has the same disease as

Michael Jackson,” Madden told me. “She has no social skills and it is very hard for her to make friends or even sit still. Her mind goes 10 times faster than she can control.”

Madden once had a well-paying job that required her to fly to Denver, Colo., on Mondays and return Fridays. Her mom helped out with the children.

But, as Janise grew older, the problem manifested itself in bad grades and acting out in school. Madden gave up her job and found one closer to home.

“I cried at night, not knowing what to do,” Madden said.

But, a longtime love of baking has proven to be her salvation.

Janise’s actions were never malicious.For example, her medications make her

crave sweets. She even stole candy from the teacher’s desk — but, she shared it with the whole class, never thinking it was wrong.

Madden loves baking and she is very good, from what I hear, at making cheesecake.

And, it seems, Janise loves baking too. She displayed such an interest in helping her mother bake cheesecakes — which were sold to individuals and later restaurants — that a savvy therapist came up with an idea.

“She said I should let Janise help me bake in return for good behavior in school and good grades,” Madden said.

Could simple bribery be the answer?It seems like it is.“I let her help me on weekends bake

cheesecakes as long as she does well in school,” Madden said.

“The second week she made a cheese-cake; it turned out great. She knows how to make all 52 flavors that I do.”

Madden’s cheesecake baking became so popular, that she has turned it into a home-based business called Krista’s Cheesecakery — with advice from the Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce.

She’s a long way from quitting her day job, but she makes 25 to 50 a week and sells them in local restaurants like Burnt Store Pizzeria and at the Charlotte Harbor Yacht Club.

The second income comes in handy, but the cost is sleep and social time.

“I get up a lot at 4 a.m. and bake,” Madden said. “It takes an hour to make a cake, but it takes six hours for it to cool.”

She has perfected her craft to the point that she recently baked a three-tier wedding cheesecake that went to Venice — where she said it got rave reviews.

“People seem to love my cheesecake and I think it’s because I don’t use sour cream. I don’t like sour cream and never used it in my baking.”

Madden said Janise — who continues to do better in school — wants to own her own bakery some day.

“And she might do it. They say kids with these challenges often go on to be very successful in business.”

Madden, meanwhile, is considering mak-ing baking a full-time job. She also would love to give baking lessons on weekends to kids.

“You know, we used to have home ec in school and now we don’t," she noted.

To Richard Week-ly, a widowed, 87-year-old Navy

veteran of World War II who lives in the Villa San Carlos complex on Easy Street in Port Charlotte, the near-by Cultural Center of Charlotte County is like his home away from home.

It’s where he gets reduced-price senior citizen meals, shops, reads, attends events, and where

vets board buses for trips to Veterans Administration hospi-tals in Fort Myers and St. Petersburg.

The safest, most direct, traffic-free route for Richard and his walker was a foot-bridge from a parking lot on Easy Street, across the Elkcam Waterway to the Bayfront Health Port Charlotte hospital, and through the hospital’s parking lot to the

Cultural Center.Until, that is, one

day last year when he encountered metal barrier gates blocking the bridge, posted with “no trespassing” signs.

It turned out that the bridge, apparently erected some 40 years ago by Bon Secours St. Joseph Hospital — which is now Bayfront Health Port Charlotte — had been used primarily by hospital staff who parked on the Easy Street lot, leased from St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church, and walked across the bridge to work.

Last year, however, nearby Fawcett Memorial Hospital outbid Bayfront Health for the use of the lot for its own employees.

Weekly said that when he went to the hospital to complain about the hardship the bridge closing caused him and many other senior citizens at Villa San Carlos, he was told by an administrator

that it was Bayfront Health’s bridge and they didn’t want Fawcett personnel using it.

Fawcett, however, was using van service for its employees from the lot to its hospital via Olean Boulevard.

So Weekly wrote to the Sun asking for help, and it became a project for the Answer Man, who discussed the situation with Shaun Cullinan, county Planning and Zoning official, and Joshua Moye, assistant county attorney. The AM has always found county officials to be professionally respon-sive, as were Cullinan and Moye.

What they discovered was a Public Access Bridge Easement granted by the county to Bayfront Health’s corporate parent, Health Management Association, Inc., enacted on Jan. 24, 2012, granting HMA a 15-foot easement for the public walkway

bridge, noting that the “Elkcam Waterway is dedicated per the plat ‘to the perpetual use of the Public for proper purposes.’”

The easement also stipulated, “Grantor (the county) here-by agrees that no obstruction will be constructed, planted or placed within said Public Access Bridge Easement.” The bridge barriers were illegal, according to the agreement.

When Bayfront Health Market CEO Richard Satcher was presented with the easement information, according to Cullinan, he agreed that the barriers would be taken down. They were

removed a week ago today, and the hospital readily apologized.

Satcher said in a statement: “Our bridge has been reopened and we apologize for any hardship we inadvertently caused. Neighboring seniors can resume getting to the Cultural Center through our Bayfront Health parking lot.”

Weekly, visiting the bridge on Friday, beamed and said he was pleased not only for himself but for all the seniors using the bridge. He said the reopening was “great,” and he thanked the Sun, the county and the hospital for com-bining to solve the problem.

It became his bridge to nowhereThe

Some plants receive common names concerning how

well they succeed in the garden. One plant that deserves its name is the Aspidistra or “Cast-Iron Plant.” Hardy and shade-loving, the cast-iron plant makes a great groundcover that slowly

fills in an area without being invasive. Original-ly from China, this Victo-rian favorite comes in a number of varieties from dark green to variegated patterns.

Basically, the cast-iron plant, a member of the lily family, has simple, 12 to 20-inch leaves, with smooth margins and parallel veins. The leaves emerge from a rhizome as the plant develops into a clump. Cast-iron plants are famous for their ability to grow in low light (even heavy shade), high heat, poor soil and even some drought. This plant really cannot tolerate sunny areas, but does compete well with tree

roots. Good drainage is essential, but having the very best soil is not. While you can fertilize sparingly during the growing season, you can also neglect this chore and still have good- looking plants. Start with potted transplants set in the landscape at 12- to 18-inch intervals. You can also take established plants and divide the rhizomes. Water until established, but keep in mind that cast-iron plants are very drought tolerant.

During the Victorian era, cast-iron were grown as an indoor container plant. The cast-iron plant will make a good container

plant inside or outdoors on a shady porch or patio. Also consider that the leaves of the cast-iron plant make great additions to a flower arrangement. As a matter of fact, they will last in a vase as filler for at least a month.

There are a number of cultivars to choose from and you will be surprised by the selec-tion. The cast-iron plant is occasionally available locally, but an Internet search will help you locate some of the rarer types.

So, if you have a shady area where nothing else seems to grow, you might check out the cast-iron plant. Not only does it take the shade, it loves the shade and prefers it! For more information on all types of plants known to be shade-tolerant, please call our Master Gardener volunteers on the Plant Lifeline on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at 941-764-4340 for gardening help and insight into their role as an extension volunteer. Don’t forget to visit our other County Plant Clinics in the area.

We remember the Life you shared with yourfamily and friends. Your love lives on in the thingswe shared, in the moments we treasured and thesmiles we can never forget. With our hearts your

spirit lives on forever.Love from Donna and family.

This poem reminds us of you in so many ways:

“If I should ever leave you whom I love“To go along the silent way,

“Grieve not,“Nor speak of me with tears,

“But laugh and talk of me as if I were beside youthere.

“(I’d come — I’d come, could I but find a way!“But would not tears and grief be barriers?)

“And when you hear a song“Or see a bird I loved,

“Please do not let the thought of me be sad,“For I am loving you just as I always have.

“You were so good to me!“There are so many things I wanted still to do,

“So many things to say to you.“Remember that I did not fear;

“It was just leaving you that was so hard to face.“We cannot see beyond,

“But this I know;“I love you so.

“’twas heaven here with you!”— Isla Richardson

Benefit for teen girl with cancer

A fundraiser is planned for a 13-year-old North Port girl recently diag-nosed with lymphoma.

A car wash and bake sale for Alyssa Nicastro will be held from 8 a.m. to noon Sunday, May 17 at San Pedro Catholic Church at 14380 Tamiami Trail, from 8 a.m. to noon. Donations of baked goods would be greatly appreciated.

Alyssa was diagnosed with a cancerous mass that covers her whole chest, including her heart and lungs. Her single father is working part time and also cares for Alyssa’s 8-year-old sister. All proceeds will go to Alyssa’s medical expens-es. Donations can also be made at the GoFundMe site www.gofundme.com/alyssanicastro, which has raised over $7,100 for the teen.

In 1968, during the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, Randy McConnell of Nokomis received seven Purple Hearts in six months of intensive fighting with the 101st Airborne Division. He was also awarded two Silver Stars and a Bronze Star for valor, along with an Army Commendation Medal.

McConnell, now 68, re-calls best the battle which resulted in his fifth Purple Heart, second Silver Star and the Commendation Medal. It was May 6, 1968.

“We were in Ca Chu when our squadron commander, Lt. Col. Julius Beckham ... decided we were going to attack the enemy at night in forma-tion. He had no idea what we were getting into.”

It was 2 a.m., and 100 Americans began an attack against what they later learned was the D-212 North Vietnamese Army battalion, en-trenched and waiting.

“It was by far the worst battle I was involved in,” he said with a grimace. “We were drastically out-numbered by a seasoned NVA battalion who knew the territory.”

The enemy opened fire in the pitch-black night. McConnell took cover in an empty machine-gun bunker, returning fire as two NVA soldiers popped out of spider holes — one-man foxholes — on either side of an enemy machine gun. One he shot immediately. The other McConnell hit just as he fired a rocket-propelled grenade.

“It hit the side of an armored personnel carrier beside me, then hit the ground in front of me and spun like a top. I knew it had a time fuse that would go off any second. When it exploded it threw me into a nearby tree. I was hanging upside down from a branch with a piece of shrapnel in my neck. I thought I was a goner,” McConnell said.

He was bleeding profusely from the neck wound.

“I stuck my finger in the hole in my neck to stop the bleeding,” he said. “The medic got me out of the tree and set me upright on the ground to work on me. It was May 6 and this was my fifth Purple Heart wound. I remember asking the medic, ‘Am I gonna make it, Doc?’ He patched me up with a Band-Aid and said to me, ‘Get your ass back in the battle!’ That’s exactly what I did.”

Daylight didn’t make things any better.

“I got the bejesus scared out of me. During the night fighting I had crawled up close to a big, round Chinese Claymore-type mine. I could see the wire to detonate it running back into the enemy machine gun bunker. Fortunately, I had killed all the soldiers in the bunker.”

For helping knock out two NVA bunkers, McConnell received the Army Commendation Medal.

“My squad’s machine -gunner, Robert Patterson, wanted to continue the fight. I told him, since we had penetrated the enemy’s perimeter defenses, we need to go find their command post. I sent Patterson and two others in our fire team one way and I took the rest of our squad and went the other way. By somewhere

around 2 p.m. the shooting was over. Patterson and his group had knocked out seven enemy

machine gun bunkers and my group had taken down another seven. We never found the enemy command post.

“It was only by the grace of God we survived all that happened that morning. It was a matter of laying down screening fire and getting close enough to take out the enemy bunkers with grenades. We took one after another after another bunker.”

Patterson received the Medal of Honor.

“By this time our unit had quite a reputation for killing the enemy. We would leave ‘kill cards’ on dead enemy soldiers to let the NVA and (Viet Cong) know who killed their men,” McConnell said.

The cards, the size of regular playing cards, have the ace of spades with a 101st Airborne patch and a “Screaming Eagle” on them.

Joining upHis freshman year at the

University of Michigan, in-juries sidelined McConnell from the football team, so he lost his scholarship and ended up joining the Army in 1967. His uncle also served in the 101st Airborne and convinced him to go airborne and be a Screaming Eagle, too. After jump school McConnell also became a “pathfinder,” establishing landing zones on battle-fields and leading troops into war zones.

In December 1967, he went to Vietnam attached to B-Troop, 2nd Squadron, 17th Cavalry, 101st Airborne Division. He ar-rived a month before the Tet Offensive, the largest series of battles during the Vietnam War involving upward of 80,000 NVA and VC guerrillas. Fighting lasted through May. It was a military disaster for the North, but Tet caused many Americans to side with protesters against the war, and was the begin-ning of the end of U.S involvement in Vietnam.

“I was 21 on Jan. 30, 1968, the day before Tet started. We were at a rubber plantation near Bien Hoa where we set up a defensive perimeter. We were there about a month,” McConnell recalled. “That’s where I got my first Purple Heart, on Jan. 31, 1968.”

Following a night attack where McConnell and his unit killed about a dozen of the enemy, he was sent to retrieve some of the enemy bodies.

“I found a body, rolled it over and started drag-ging it back to our lines. The enemy had already booby -trapped it

with a white phosphorous grenade. As I began drag-ging the body, the grenade went off. I got burned on my chest in the blast.”

A short time later, McConnell earned his first Silver Star.

“We were moving up Highway 1 with armored personnel carriers. I had a gun Jeep with an M-60 machine gun mounted on it. Along the way, we dismounted and went out on a search-and-destroy mission. We were search-ing rice paddies for the enemy when we came up on a tree line and ran into two enemy machine gun bunkers,” McConnell said. “Before my platoon could flank the machine guns and knock ’em out, they wounded or killed 47 of our men. Seven of our men were evacuated and one was killed.

“We had to maneuver closer in under enemy fire to take the bunkers out. I had an M-16 rifle and my grenadier had an M-79 grenade launcher. When we got close enough to do the job, I laid down supporting fire so he could lob a grenade into the enemy bunker.”

Just before they were able to knock out the second bunker, he was shot in the chin and chest.

“It was kind of a bad day for me,” he said.

Eventually, both bunkers and some NVA prisoners were taken, and McConnell was evacuated.

McConnell’s war ends

“My seventh and last Purple Heart came when my Achilles tendon was hit by shrapnel from a mortar shell fired by the NVA or VC on May 20, 1968. When the enemy first attacked I had 22 magazines of M-16 (rifle) ammunition in my vest,” he recalled. “I was on my last magazine when I decided it was time for me to move back up to our mortar station. That was when I discovered I had been hit ... and couldn’t walk. I crawled

back to where our mortar men were.”

He was evacuated to a hospital in Yokohama, Japan, then sent to Beaumont Army Hospital in El Paso, Texas, to recover from his ankle wound. Weeks later, when McConnell could walk without crutches, he was allowed to return on leave to his Michigan home.

“I flew into Detroit on a civilian aircraft on my way home. I was dressed in my khaki uniform, three rows deep in ribbons on my chest, my shoes were spit-shined and I had the Airborne glider patch on my hat. I thought I was probably going to be greeted as a war hero.”

He had no idea about the Vietnam War protests that had been going on back in the states.

“When I reached the airport in Detroit I was greeted at the gate by a group of long-haired hippies who spit on me,” he said. “You have to keep in mind, I was coming right off the killing fields with no counseling. I was thrown into this situation without any preparation. I was in a bad mental state at the time, having seen so much battlefield action. I wasn’t concerned about what the hippies might do to me, but what I might do to them if they got close enough.

“I took my Army uniform off at the airport and changed into civilian clothes for the remainder of the trip. After spending time with my family, I served the last six months in the Army at Fort Rucker, Ala., reassigned to a Pathfinder unit.”

After attending college and graduating as an engineer, McConnell spent the next 30 years as a water and sewer superintendent in three Michigan com-munities. He and his wife, Becky, retired to Southwest Florida in 2003. They have three grown daughters, Kelly, Staci and Erin; nine grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

Editor:Well, once again it’s GOP

primary season and the Republicans are riding roughshod over us in their 1960s Pac-Man model clown car, manufactured by their many political action committees. How do I know their car is from the 1960s? Because it has a bench seat to accommodate Larry, Curly and Moe (the Koch broth-ers and Sheldon Adelson) who would like to buy our democracy.

The more I listen to their blather, the more nauseated I become. The frightening thing is, there are people who buy into their blatant lies and half-truths. If you want your voting and work-ers rights crippled in every state in the union and turn our country into a bastion of right wing conservative ide-ology then put a Republican in the White House. Sounds a bit like the Muslim fanatics in the Middle East to me!

If you want a president who would deny global climate change along with your right to say those very words, deport millions of Hispanics, deny a woman her right to choose, allow guns in your schools and let mil-lionaires pollute the planet at will, while they run the White House like an old-fashioned church revival meeting attended by the corporate elite, KKK and the NRA who will take us back to the good old days of Jim Crow and the poll tax, then vote for the GOP Lunatic Fringe.

If this sounds radical, look at how many GOP candidates

Editor:The May 3 article,

“Charlotte comes aboard ‘Bird Pass’ debate,” quotes a resident opposed to the Alligator Creek cut-through. He claims the cut-through would “increase traffic by 2,800”; property values will go down; a “huge traffic and safety problem” would be created; and the cut-through would “immediately dump an additional 1,500 potential boats into the mouth of Alligator Creek.”

Did anyone at the meeting ask this gentleman where he got his information? Did any commissioner determine if what he said was factually correct? He could have pulled this information out of thin air. How would we know? As a result of these statements at least one county commis-sioner has decided to get involved in what is clearly a city issue.

Every citizen has the right to be heard. However, they shouldn’t get to spew data without it being challenged. The person who complains and protests the loudest should not get the most political and media attention. Perhaps this is a message for the rest of us: attend meet-ings and question what we hear.

Poorly conceived argu-ments, not distinguishing spin from substance, and information not challenged can lead to disastrous results. The squeaky wheel should not get all the grease.

Teresa JenkinsPunta Gorda

Editor:I’d like to respond to Rep.

Tom Rooney’s recent op-ed: “First 100 days: Keeping my promises to you.” As one of Mr. Rooney’s constituents, I’m glad to hear that one of his goals and accomplish-ments is to find “common ground to help grow the economy and create jobs.” I belong to an organization with the very same goals!

Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL), is proposing a nonpar-tisan plan called “Carbon Fee and Dividend.” Without rais-ing taxes, it has been shown (by the Regional Economic Models, Inc. study) that it would produce 2.8 million jobs over 20 years when the revenue raised from putting a fee on fossil fuels is returned to American households equally.

Mr. Rooney, you have said you want to “create an environment where small businesses can grow.” This CCL Carbon Fee and Dividend Plan will help create an environment where we all can grow, your three sons, my grandson and all our grandchildren.

I hope, Mr Rooney, that in the next 100 days that you might make a new promise to yourself and to your sons and to all your constituents, that you will become the climate hero that we all need. You could be that hero without raising any taxes and all the while providing millions of jobs, and at the same time improving the future environment for all of us. Please consider working in a bipartisan manner to help sponsor CCL’s Carbon Fee and Dividend Plan.

My grandson and I thank you, sir.

Jack HarkinsPort Charlotte

Editor:The state attorney gen-

eral spoke to residents of Baltimore stating that she heard the cries from them concerning the death of a prisoner who was in the custody of police. The six police were charged with several serious crimes which could result in long-term incarceration for each. They were guilty no doubt and the community would receive justice, she said.

Baltimore’s mayor lifted the curfew and was so happy to see the mall partially repaired with some of the “thug” looted stores cleaning up. Some may reopen while others may not but the mayor is happy. She did not address the burned-out businesses, but then again in her mind they were replaceable.

Both the attorney general and the mayor could both face serious times if the six police officers are found in-nocent or found guilty of the less serious charges. In either event the possibility of even more looting, arson, assaults on police and damage could be experienced in Baltimore and other cities that are “sympathetic.”

Baltimore’s future as well as race relations in America will be tested by the outcome of the trial.

Investors may be reluctant to get involved until the verdicts are in and stability in Baltimore is determined.

Trump ringsGOP register

Long overdue Midwaywidening finally here

T he man known for his flamboyant coiffure, his penthouse lifestyle and

distinct telegenic personality is due back here this month to raise barrels of money for the Sarasota Republican Party.

No, not Liberace. He’s been fired, so to speak.It’s Donald Trump. The Donald Trump of Trump

Hotel in Las Vegas and Trump Plaza casino, late of Atlantic City; of Trump Towers in New York, Chicago, Toronto, Miami and Tampa (oops). The Donald Trump of “The Apprentice” and World Wrestling Entertainment. The Donald Trump of occa-sional presidential campaigns and never-ending political pronouncements.

Donald Trump: Statesman.The DT will make a return visit

for a GOP fundraiser May 21 at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in downtown Sarasota. To lure him, the local Republican Party is giving him its “Statesman of the Year” award. That makes Trump a two-time SOY recipient, which is unprecedented.

Trump’s first award appear-ance in 2012 — just before the start of the Republican Convention in Tampa — attract-ed national network attention and lit up the local box office. More than 1,000 people at-tended. It was an ideal blend of politics, entertainment and money.

So credit Joe Gruters, Sarasota GOP chairman and the market-ing genius behind Trumpalooza 2012 and 2015, and all the big-time, high-profile appear-ances by Republican luminaries in Sarasota in recent years. He knows how to bring the bright lights and ring the cash registers.

General admission seating for the “grassroots rally” at the Van Wezel and Trump’s “keynote” address are free. Limited and “preferred” VIP seating (what else?) seats go for $50.

The Exclusive VIP reception af-terward costs $1,500 per person, or $2,500 per couple. Handshake and a photo with a statesman included, no doubt.

N early two decades after it was added to Charlotte County’s project list, the

contract for the construction of the final phase of widening Mid-way Boulevard is expected to be awarded by the County Commis-sion Tuesday. As Sun Staff Writer Gary Roberts reported, work to four-lane Midway from Sharpe Street to Kings Highway is slated to begin in July and end in mid-2018.

The road work will certainly pose an inconvenience for the nearly 13,000 motorists who travel it on a daily basis, but unlike the Edgewater Boulevard project, Midway will remain open throughout construction. As with the replacement of drainage culverts along Midway a couple years ago, there will be periodic lane closures, but alter-native routes nearby should allow drivers to navigate through the area without much delay. Olean, Peachland and Veterans bou-levards provide a release valve for typical Midway Boulevard traffic coming and going between U.S. 41 and Kings Highway.

We were pleased to see the project includes a traffic light at Midway and Beacon Drive, a dangerous intersection. A second light along Midway should break up the heavy flow and improve safety and access at other inter-sections, too. Sidewalk extending from Achilles Avenue to Kings Highway will also improve safety for the many students and cyclists who must brave the busy road.

Midway is long overdue for this project, but we are happy to see it finally arrive.

screens of some size.And what hurt the most,

after 30-plus years, no one cared that the Christmas tree in the El Jobean Park was not lit this year.

I know good things happen in this world, but mainly people are in their own little world and if their cage isn’t rattled personally, they do not care.

The Rev. Bob keeps the flags flying in the Randy Spence Park, and I thank him for that.

Please remember the “Toys for Tots” and the “Jesus Loves You Ministry” for the homeless.

the U.S. Department of Commerce on Nov. 20, 2014, Sarasota County’s per capita income in 2012 was $56,244 and in 2013 it was $56,661.

For Charlotte it was $36,911 and $37,588 for the years in question. The source is www.bea.gov/news releases/region.

The Sun /Monday, May 11, 2015 www.sunnewspapers.net E/N/C Our Town Page 7 VIEWPOINT

Americans are embarrassed. Over the last 35 years

there have only been two elections without a Bush or Clinton on the nation-al ticket. Next year both names could rest atop the ballot. In one poll voters saw this as a bad thing by a ratio of 8 to 1.

Some of the people who are upset have a false view of how life works. Since Thomas Hobbes, many people have embraced the illusory notion that society is made up of individuals. According to this view the only fair competition is between individuals, without un-due benefit from family connections.

But no society has ever been this way. Individuals don’t come fully formed. They emerge out of families and groups. The family and group is the essential social unit. These collec-tives have always shaped public life.

According to some surveys, 90 percent of

businesses around the world are family-oper-ated businesses. Much research suggests that in the U.S., family-run businesses outperform non-family-run busi-nesses, especially while the founder is still alive.

Politics, too, has always been a dynastic affair. If Hillary Clinton wins the presidency, then 10 of the 45 presidents will have had a family member precede or follow them in the White House. According to my colleagues at The Times, among boomers, the son of a senator was 8,500 times more likely to become a senator than the average American male.

Things look the same

on the state level. In New York there are Cuomos. In California, Browns. Out West the joke is that voters should just vote for the closest Udall.

If you look around the globe, these pseudo- monarchical tenden-cies seem to be on the increase, not on the de-crease. There are Aquinos in the Philippines, Nehru-Gandhis in India, even Le Pens in France. Now that women are more empowered, each dominant clan has essentially doubled the size of its talent pool, so family influence is increased.

Why do the members of dynastic families do so well? Some of the reasons are obvious and unfair: brand names and fundraising networks. Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton get the benefit of their family members’ fame. Their donor networks are already in place. These advantages will not necessarily make them better presidents.

But in other ways

we should be grateful that in each field of endeavor there are certain families that are breeding grounds for achievement. We should be grateful that there are Bachs in music, Griffeys and Molinas in baseball, Brontes and Amises in novel writing and Kennedys, Roosevelts, Clintons and Bushes in politics. These families make life more unfair for the rest of us (because it’s harder for others to compete against them), but they also make society as a whole more accomplished.

Powerhouse families nurture achievement in many ways. First, there’s identity formation. If you grow up in a musical family you’re more likely to think of yourself as a musician at a young age. You can get your 10,000 hours of practice in early, which is a huge leg up.

Second, there is the realm of practical knowl-edge. Very little of the knowledge you need to succeed in a trade can be

taught in the classroom or read about in a book. It can only be imparted by example. If you’re a Nancy Kassebaum and you grow up around your dad, Alf Landon, as he conducts a meeting, works a room or reacts to victory or defeat, you’re more likely to have an intuitive feel for how the craft of politics is done.

Third, there is the level of skills. The philosopher Michael Oakeshott once observed that it takes three generations to make a career. That is, the skills that going into, say, a teacher — verbal fluency, empathy, endurance — take a long time to develop. They emerge in grandparents and great-grandparents and are passed down magnified through the generations. I bet you can trace ways your grandparents helped shape your career.

Fourth, there is audac-ity. It is very odd to think you should be president of the United States. But if you grow up in the

Kennedy or Bush families it is apparently less odd.

Fifth, there is the time horizon. There are many reasons family business-es do better, for a time, than nonfamily business-es. The senior people are connected by intense and sometimes altruistic bonds of trust. But one reason is that families often run the business for the long term, to pass it down as a legacy to those not yet born.

Sunday was Mother’s Day, when we celebrate the powerful ways moth-ers shape their children. Families are unequal. Some mothers — and some fathers, husbands and wives — shape their kin with extraordinary power, and in certain directions. We should fight unfair advantages like legacy admissions, but we wouldn’t want to live in a society in which family influence didn’t happen.

Sir Elton John, Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire, flew into Washington to testify Wednesday before members of the United States Senate — or, as they might more accurately be described, the Madmen Across the Water.

He had been called before an Appropriations subcommittee to speak about the importance of foreign aid, and particu-larly international AIDS spending. But, as might be expected of a 68-year-old rocker who did a large quantity of banned substances in his day, the witness occasionally veered off message — as when he described his life before he took up the cause of AIDS.

“My life was complete-ly disordered,” Sir Elton, seated to the right of the evangelical minister Rick Warren, told the sena-tors. “I was a drug addict. I was a self-obsessed [bad word for anus].”

On the dais, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., the subcommittee chair-man, and Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., until re-cently the president pro tempore of the Senate, could not hide grins.

There were several such unusual moments over the course of two hours: Warren clasping the gay musician’s hand and joking about them kissing each other, Graham telling pho-tographers to get “back in your cages,” Leahy addressing the gathering on the topic of his wife’s popularity, and another committee member, Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., break-ing into Spanish. Graham expressed pity for the stenographer.

“Very earthy commit-tee we have here,” the chairman said.

The Rocket Man’s language may have been even saltier if he had been told what had happened before the hearing. Witnesses and senators alike talked about the crucial im-portance of foreign aid and the need to protect it from budget cuts.

But the evening before, a majority of senators — including Graham — voted to approve a budget resolution that cuts foreign aid.

Democrats complain that the Republican-authored budget resolu-tion for fiscal 2016 cuts $1.1 billion from foreign aid next year and $47 billion over 10 years. President Obama had requested an increase from the current level of just over $50 billion. Members of the panel sidestepped this awk-ward situation, instead vowing to keep the foreign-aid budget from falling victim to even larger cuts that would have occurred under automatic “sequestra-tion” rules.

Graham said foreign -aid spending “is the smartest use of federal dollars of any place within the federal government.” He vowed to make sure “we not abandon this account at a time we’re so close to achieving the purposes of this account, which is to change the world in a positive fashion.”

Sir Elton, in rose-col-ored sunglasses and wearing a purple

polka-dot tie to liven up his business suit, was pitch perfect on this point. “There is a window of opportunity before us, a window through which we can very clearly see the end of AIDS within my lifetime. We cannot afford to let the window close,” he told the sen-ators. “This is the most powerful legislative body in the world, and this Congress indeed has the power to end AIDS.”

But on Wednesday, the powerful legislators were star-struck.

Leahy stood in the hallway with camera- toting tourists and staff-ers, waiting for the singer to arrive. “Sir Elton,” the Democrat said in his opening statement, “we’ve known each other a number of years.”

Graham tried to one-up Leahy. “I’d like to mention that Bono could not be here today,” he said. “He’s had a very difficult accident. ... He’s communicated with me several times regretting not being able to be here.” (Bono sang Tuesday at the funeral for Dave Goldberg in California.)

But Leahy was not to be outdone. “Can I

just interject there?” he asked. “When I called him [Bono] after his accident — he was back in Dublin — he said the fellow members of the band said it’s a good thing he was wearing his helmet so he didn’t damage the sidewalks of New York.”

Graham, who posed for photos with Sir Elton after the hearing, was awed just by the simple act of the witness finishing his statement in the allotted minutes. “Ended right on time — it’s amazing!” Graham said.

Sir Elton, the aging pop star causing all this swooning, waxed

philosophic about America (“This country gave everything to me as a professional musician, and it’s given everything to me as a human being”).

Graham thought the performance a triumph. “After this, how would you like to vote against this account? What would you say?” he asked.

Graham should know. Only hours earlier, he and his Senate colleagues cast just such a vote.

POLICE BEATThe information for Police Beat is gathered from police, sheriff’s office, Florida Highway Patrol, jail and fire records. Not every arrest leads to a conviction and guilt or innocence is determined by the court system.

It may not feel as warm yet, but Southwest Florida residents are likely to see the afternoon rain showers typical of summertime this week. National Weather Service meteorologist Rodney Wynn said temperatures this week would be “around the seasonable average of around 88, maybe a couple degrees warmer on a couple days, but overall about aver-age.” However, sea breeze collisions could cause afternoon showers and thunderstorms.

“Southeast winds com-ing from the sea breeze start up early in southeast of Punta Gorda,” Wynn said. “Later in the after-noon, the west coast sea breeze gives us showers and thunderstorms.”

He added “high pres-sure setting up to east of us gives us our southeast flow,” causing “sea breeze collisions we see in the summertime.”

The forecast shows partly cloudy skies all week. The high on Monday is 92 with a low of 70. The chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms is 40 percent. Tuesday’s high

is 87 with a low of 72. The chance of showers and storms is 50 percent. Wednesday’s high is 87 with a low of 73. The rain and thunderstorms chance is 40 percent. Thursday’s high is 88 with a low of 72. The chance of showers and thunder-storms goes down to 30 percent that day, but goes back to 50 percent on Friday. The high is 87 on Friday with a low of 71.

“Keep an eye on the weather,” Wynn said. “If you got any outdoor activities, if you hear thunder, please take cover immediately inside.”

Spring-like temperatures, but summertime rain expected

SARASOTA COUNTY — As the Sarasota Police Department remains hesitant to give their body camera program the full green light, a Sarasota-based company hopes to capitalize on the growing body cam trend.

“It all just came together, and it seemed the perfect fit for what we do in supplying that transportation layer of video transmissions for cameras,” says Daniel Carpini, vice president of marketing for xG Technology Inc.

xG Technology has been following the news. They’re one of many tech companies that plan to capitalize on police department’s future use of body cameras.

“What’s going on local-ly is obviously part of a larger movement across the country now in response to some of the incidents that have been happening,” Carpini said.

xG recently announced a partnership with a Boca Raton company that manufactures the cameras to be marketed

to law enforcement, armed forces, and other first responders.

“We were approached by the maker of the DirectView body cam-eras, because he heard about our company and our focus on private, highly resilient wireless technology,” Carpini said.

The new venture will allow xG to root itself in a niche it has targeted since its inception in 2002.

“Our mission is to really provide the public safety community with the tools they need to be responsible and account-able to their citizens,” Carpini said, “but also provide protection to their people in the field that they require.”

So as one Sarasota en-tity is eager to capitalize on the body cam market, why is another involved in this discussion hes-itant to give the body cameras a green light?

Chief Bernadette Dipino of the Sarasota Police Department prom-ised body cams on every officer by mid-March, but the Sarasota City Commission suspended the program pending

a lawsuit by Michael Barfield over the cost of accessing that body cam footage as public record.

That lawsuit has since been settled, and American Civil Liberties Union vice president Barfield is now able to shed some light on what’s still holding up the camera program.

“As I understand it, they’re reviewing the 84 hours of video from that trial program and they’re going to modify their policy with respect to body cam video,” Barfield said.

So while the SPD’s body cams gather dust, xG Technology plans to move into other munici-palities later this year.

“We expect that being involved in these high-profile types of issues will only serve our company well going forward with our growth and our success,” Carpini said.

The city attorney said another obstacle is calculating the cost this public record footage will have on taxpayers following the lawsuit. SPD officials said they expect to start using their cameras within the next few months.

Florida Department of Children and Families Secretary Mike Carroll takes a recent tour of the AMIKids Crossroads foster care facility for teenage boys located east of Punta Gorda. Carroll met with the teens during his two-hour visit to see firsthand how the campus operates.

DCF head tours local foster care facility

“One of the old tom-cats was hit with a buck shot and left to die,” Swanson said. “It’s up at a vet in Sarasota. He has IVs in it and is clinging to life. It’s so terrible that

someone would do that to a cat, especially an older one.”

Neighborhood cats with proper tags also are disappearing. One neighbor said she lost four of her personal cats.

“I think they are being trapped and dumped somewhere away from our neighborhood

or even killed and dumped,” Hoot said. “We have called EARS, the Humane Society and a couple of other shelters and those cats haven’t been taken to them. It’s so cruel for someone to do this to our pets.”

The women were horrified that someone sped down their road

and killed a cat while it was crossing the street.

“Seeing that cat go fly-ing and go into a seizure put me on my strong medicine for my heart condition,” Hoot said. “We don’t know what the solution is to stop all of this from happening. The only way an arrest can be made for animal cruelty

is if police catch a person in the act or if it’s on video. It’s just not right what’s happening in our neighborhood.”

The ladies have heard cats screeching from a cage and then loud music to drown out the sound. They called deputies, but once they arrived the sounds were gone and so

was another cat.If anyone has informa-

tion about the cats, call the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office at 941-861-5800 or Sarasota County Animal Services for lost and found pets at 941-861-9501.

These gatherings took Waksler in March to Tallahassee, where her class joined with College Leadership Florida, a more youthful ver-sion of her own group. Again, new understanding emerged.

“Now you have a completely different perspective from the next generation,” she said.

The goal of the organization is to expand the impact of community leaders across the

state, said Waksler, a 1998 grad-uate of Leadership Charlotte.

David A. Holmes, manag-ing partner of the Farr Law Firm, was born and raised in Charlotte County. So joining Leadership Florida in 2013 opened wide a window to the rest of the state.

“You meet people from all over and you learn about the entire state,” said the former Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce president, who also helped to organize the state-chartered Calusa Bank.

And it caused him to take

a second look at some issues, such as how we treat our land and water.

“Development is important to the Florida economy, but it has an undeniable impact on the environment,” he said.

Attorney David Carlton had quite a different experience when he was a Leadership Florida member several years ago. That’s where he met his wife, Carmen Perez, who was president of FPL FiberNet. They were married last summer.

“It was extra icing on the

cake,” he said.He enjoyed meeting others in

the program as well.“It was a great experience,”

he said. “It’s the ultimate busi-ness networking opportunity for folks in Florida.”

A multi-generational Floridian with a longtime law practice serving Charlotte and DeSoto counties, Carlton thought he knew a lot about the Sunshine State. But there was a lot to learn.

“I didn’t know much about Jacksonville or the Space Coast,” he said. “The program

removes the blind spots. You get a well-rounded, detailed perspective of cutting-edge issues.”

Staying connected with alumni is another important asset of Leadership Florida, Carlton said. And he encour-ages others to take advantage as well, recruiting new participants to share in the experience.

“It’s like being in a fraternity. You’re encouraged to stay active,” he said. “It’s a great resource.”

PREA standards drafted by a special committee created by Bush’s 2003 act. A final PREA rule became official in 2012, after a U.S. Department of Justice review. Jails and prisons were told they had until last year to be in compliance, when audits began.

“We’ve been working really hard for this,” the major said. “I’m very happy with everyone’s effort.”

In preparation for its recent audit, conducted by a private firm and submitted to the DOJ, the jail last year had to compile information about sexual harassment and abuse complaints from inmates. There were 21 total reports of harassment or abuse. Out of those, CCSO investigations sustained allegations in just one case.

For Goodwyne, that was one too many.

“If (inmates) are here to serve a sentence, that’s their punishment,” he said. “But, we’re a pre-trial detention facility, so 85 percent of our inmates are usually awaiting some kind of disposition to their case — they aren’t even here for punishment.

“But the punishment, even in prison, is incarceration. People can’t misconstrue that, ‘Well they’re in prison, they’re criminals, so they deserve what they got.’ That couldn’t be farther from the truth.

They don’t deserve that; that’s cruel and unusual. Being sexually abused or molested or raped in prison or jail is not a punishment doled out by the court of law. But it’s hard to get some people to understand that about people who are behind the bars or behind the walls and forgotten about.”

Up to parFor the local jail to be

compliant with PREA, some policies and procedures had to be reworded. Moreover, posters reiterating the seriousness of reporting alleged sexual miscon-duct now are posted around the building. And, there was other minor tweaking here or there — for example, mirrors were added around the facility to better see blind spots, like behind a large rack in a kitchen storage area.

Also, the jail enhanced its inmate classification process to better avoid potential predator-prey situations between cellmates.

“We have classifi-cation in place that probably would keep that from happening,”

said jail Lt. Jessica Long, whom Goodwyne appointed as PREA coordinator. “But one of the further steps we took with PREA is to pair inmates more appropriately within the cellblock. We’re working harder to determine those who might be preyed upon to make sure they are protected.”

The main cost to the agency to officially be PREA compliant was $4,500 for the audit. A report of the inspection praises the number of eyes on the inmates, between the jail’s 203 staff members and 190 security cameras at the time of the audit (that’s about one worker on staff and one camera per every four inmates). The auditor specifically commended the jail’s “orderliness” and “safe and secure atmosphere.”

Long said PREA’s

standards should help redefine the “culture” often associated with incarceration.

“A lot of people who have been coming to jail think (sexual harass-ment) is just something you have to put up with — if you’re a female in a female pod, you’ve got to watch out for lesbians and all that stuff,” she said. “They’ve watched too many late night movies.”

With a heightened PREA awareness, Long said inmates have been more inclined to report allegations beyond “the worst of the worst — actual rapes.”

“Maybe there’s a more feminine-looking male inmate and they’re calling him ‘princess,’” Long said. “In the past, maybe that was a little joke. But now, that’s harassment, and the inmates now know that’s not acceptable,

and they don’t have to put up with it. There is something they can do about it, and they are.”

The PREA Resource Center does not yet have data about how many Florida jails are compliant, but Maj. Goodwyne said he has information that his jail was likely one of the first 10 in Florida to successfully be audited.

Other local facilities

The Sarasota County Jail is expected to be PREA compliant by August, according to spokeswoman Kaitlyn Johnston. The jail, which is actually larger than Charlotte’s, received just 14 allegations of sexual harassment or abuse last year. But three allega-tions were sustained.

The DeSoto County Jail does not keep statistics about reported sexual harassment or assaults, as the sheriff’s office has chosen not to work toward PREA’s specific standards.

“It’s just not something we’re looking at,” said DCSO Chief Deputy Maj. James Vitali. “We couldn’t even meet all the provisions because our jail is so old. Our priority would first be

getting a facility that is modernized.”

However, Vitali said, sexual assaults are not frequently reported at the jail to begin with. Also, per the National Criminal Justice Association, Congress has mandated that the penalty, so far, for PREA noncompliance is a reduction in grant funding from the DOJ. The DeSoto County Jail would be virtually unaf-fected by such a penalty.

“And, (being PREA compliant) does not minimize liability anymore,” Vitali said. “If an incident happens, our liability is the same.”

There were more than 3,000 reports of sexual harassment or abuse at Florida prisons in 2013 and 2014, with a 42 percent jump in allegations between the two years, according to the state Department of Corrections. According to a Department corrective action plan signed by secretary Julie Jones in February, the increase in reports could be at-tributed to more inmates becoming familiar with PREA and “feeling more comfortable reporting these allegations.”

Less than 100 of the al-legations of prison sexual misconduct in Florida were sustained over the two-year span, including two incidents at the Charlotte Correctional Institution in Punta Gorda.

There are hundreds of cases still being investi-gated at facilities around the state.

doled out by the court of law.”— Maj. Earl Goodwyne,

The doctor shortage is a problem for much of Florida.

A study commissioned by the state’s teaching and safety net hospitals concluded Florida will be short nearly 7,000 doctors by 2025 if more residency programs and training slots aren’t created.

Southwest Florida and much of the Panhandle will see some of the sharpest shortages.

However, medical leaders hope folks like Dr. Carl Nyberg can help meet the need.

On a recent day, Nyberg was reading from a computer-display checklist of questions for new parents as a new-born boy squirmed on his Lee Physician Group exam table.

How much does the baby sleep? All the time it seems, they tell him. Eating? Still breast-feed-ing but, yes, a healthy appetite. Urinating and pooping? Constantly.

Then things get tricky. It’s time for the 2-month-old to start getting vaccinated for a long list of dangerous diseases and infections, the computer notes. But the parents want to wait and do their own research before proceeding.

Nyberg, who has an 8-month career in seeing patients, knows it’s better not to argue — he’ll give them pamphlets and encourage them again another time. It’s one of the many subtleties of doctoring he’s picked up as one of Southwest Florida’s first class of medical residents.

“You don’t want to be too forceful with pa-tients,” Nyberg said later. “You want to give them as much information as possible so they can make a good decision.”

Nyberg, 29, is one of 13 recent medical school graduates fulfilling their post-medical-school training requirements at a new Lee Memorial Health System/Florida State University program for future family practice doctors.

Known as medical resi-dency, new doctors work for three years in hospi-tals and medical clinics to learn about medical specialties and to get a real-world education in treating patients. Doctors must successfully com-plete residency programs before they are free to practice on their own.

It’s called a “cradle to grave” spectrum of med-ical care: They deliver babies, treat patients in outpatient clinics, see them in the ER and visit elderly patients in the hospital. They gener-ally handle 140 patient visits their first year. The following two years, they will be present for nearly 10 times that amount.

Lee Memorial created the program to train young physicians in this already medically under-served community and, ideally, convince them to set up shop here once they finish.

Without such efforts, medical industry experts say the region faces a shortage of hundreds of doctors — including those specializing in family practice medicine, cancer treatment and surgery.

Given that, doctors such as Nyberg are ideal. The Fort Myers High School graduate attended medical school in the Caribbean but has always planned to settle in Southwest Florida.

A willingness to stay in the region is a factor in selecting residents every year. The goal is to keep at least 50 percent of them in the area once they are ready to prac-tice on their own, said Dr. Gary Goforth, who oversees the program for FSU and Lee Memorial.

“We know historically, across the country, most residents stay where they actually did their train-ing,” Goforth said. “The idea behind this residen-cy (program) is that we would train our own.”

Desperate needDoctors specializing in

general surgery, cancer treatment, anesthesiol-ogy and endocrinology

will be in the shortest supply here, the recent study found.

Demand for family practice doctors, the focus of Lee Memorial’s residency program, is ex-pected to outstrip supply by 54 percent by 2025 — roughly 260 doctors.

But it’s not all bad news. Florida will likely have plenty of plastic surgeons, pediatricians, doctors specializing in treating the elderly and, outside Southwest Florida, family practice doctors, the study found.

Recently, the teaching and safety net hospital groups formally asked state lawmakers for $20 million in recurring funds to create new pro-grams and training slots for medical specialties in particular short supply. They hope to capture another $30 million in federal matching funds.

This $50 million would add to the $80 million in state and federal dollars financing such programs in Florida.

If the Legislature signs off on the plan, hospi-tals would be eligible for one-time $100,000 bonuses for every new training slot created for high-demand medical specialties, such as psychiatry, general sur-gery, rheumatology and thoracic surgery. Some of the money would also provide financial support for existing slots.

Florida now has roughly 4,000 residency slots. The funding could theoretically finance as many as 500 additional ones in its first year, said Ron Bartlett, a spokes-man for the effort.

It’s too early to tell if the proposal will gain support of a majority of lawmakers or if they will agree to the full $20 million a year. But Bartlett said he’s confident that they understand the need.

“They seem to con-cur that the physician shortage is a growing problem and that Florida has a pressing need for more residency slots to help close the gap,” he said. “They are taking this seriously and want to address the issue.”

Doctors with ‘real heart’

Lee Memorial’s resi-dency program, created through a 2011 partner-ship with Florida State University, welcomed its inaugural class last year.

The program is based in a Lee Physician Group clinic housed on the seventh floor of Lee Memorial Hospital near downtown Fort Myers.

For now, it only pro-vides training for family practice physicians but may eventually allow for other, still-undeter-mined types of physician training. The number of available slots will probably also increase, possibly up to a program total of 30.

It probably won’t be hard for the program to find interested appli-cants. Goforth received nearly 1,600 applications this year for six open residency slots.

But they don’t just want anyone.

Aside from good grades and clean back-grounds, the program seeks doctors who want to practice family medi-cine, Goforth said. Failed neurosurgeons hoping to fall back on being a family doctor need not apply.

“We were looking for people that had a real heart for family medi-cine,” he said. “I don’t want to train somebody who sees this as a back-up specialty.”

Coming homeThe waiting room at

the Orthopedic Center of Florida is bursting at the seams these days.

Patients with achy lig-aments, those recovering from hip replacements, knee surgeries and the like filled all of the exam rooms during one recent visit. And Dr. Elizabeth Midney-Martinez, anoth-er first-year resident, was seemingly seeing all of them.

Midney-Martinez, 28, was on her second day at work at the Fort Myers clinic to get a crash course in orthopedic medicine — big business

in a region where more than a quarter of the population is 65 and older.

Today she’s getting tips on assessing the source of Donna Fecik’s shoulder pain. She stretches both of Fecik’s arms and probes for the precise spots causing trouble. Dr. Mark Farmer, an orthopedic surgeon and chairman of Lee Memorial’s orthopedic department, watches her closely.

Midney-Martinez learned much of this in medical school, Ross University Medical School in Dominica. But it’s been a while since she’s had practice with these kinds of exams, she said. She checks one arm. No problem. The second causes a twinge of pain.

“Gently,” Farmer cautions, as Midney-Martinez begins.

Patients don’t seem unnerved by the pres-ence of an extra doctor in the room. Fecik said she doesn’t mind.

“It’s OK with me,” she says later. “I love students.”

It’s like this for much of the day. She will visit with patients with Farmer to get a broad knowledge of orthope-dics and how to identify those who need to see specialists like him.

She said she also is learning more mundane, but critically important, aspects of the profession: how to negotiate with insurance companies, how to convince patients they need certain tests, medical coding and so on.

Midney-Martinez, who was born at Lee Memorial Hospital and grew up in Immokalee, hopes to eventually practice in her home community.

“I just have this dream that I’m going to work there and help a lot of people and keep people out of the hospital,” she said. “It’s probably a little bit naive but, I don’t know, it’s just a dream. We’ll see how it all pans out in the end.”

Residency program one remedy for local doctor shortage

It’s been said that photography is a lot like shooting pool — if you take the shots that no one else can see, you will be the best.

An image by Port Charlotte photographer Spencer Pullen has been selected as one of the best in the Camera USA 2015: National Photography Exhibition and Award competition.

And that photo, entitled, “Fruit Loops” will be on display along with 49 other finalists at The von Liebig Art Center’s Frederick O. Watson Gallery in Naples from June 15 to July 17. The first-place winner will be announced at a preview reception and presenta-tion June 12.

Finalists were se-lected by a group of award-winning and

professional photogra-phers, professors, and museum curators from around the country.

“It took me a few months to figure out the execution of my idea,” Pullen said. “When I got the parts and pieces to-gether, it took six hours, and probably approxi-mately 300 images, to get the perfect one.”

This isn’t Pullen’s only photographic success story. He recently was awarded first place for his black and white image, “The Old Model T,” entered in a compe-tition at the Manatee Art Center in Bradenton.

Though Pullen took his first photos when he was only 7 years old, he wasn’t always a profes-sional photographer. His college studies focused on graphic design and interactive media — radio, television, web-sites, commercials, and 3-D modeling. His work

for the local Sun Coast Media group got him involved in commercial printing, and encour-aged his transition from graphic designer to com-mercial photographer.

He is a photography class instructor, primar-ily at Florida Gulf Coast University’s Renaissance Academy’s Herald Court Campus in Punta Gorda.

“The big thing I found is that a majority of my students are age 60-90,” he said. “They wanted something to do — something to get them out and keep them active.”

FGCU Program Director Nancy Staub said that Pullen’s stu-dents have a varying degree of ability but he treats each student equally, and provides one-on-one instruction for them.

“When I met with Spencer the first time, I realized his extreme

passion would lead him to help people learn their cameras and photog-raphy techniques,” she said.

Pullen has a website, http://spencerpullen.com, and can be

contacted at spencer@spencerpullen.com. FGCU class schedules and information can be found at www.fgcu.edu/hcc or visit the campus at 117 Herald Court 211, Punta Gorda.

NORTH PORT — A local transportation assistance program is on the hunt for volunteer drivers, as demand increases at season’s end.

FISH — Friends In

Service Here — is a non-profit organization that provides transportation to those who are unable to drive themselves.

It is based out of North Port, but drivers can travel to Englewood, Venice and Port Charlotte. Half the clients use the

service to get to medical appointments.

Bruce Isbell recognizes the need for the service in the area. He’s been involved in the program for 12 years.

“The geographical location of North Port is important, as it is right

on the Charlotte County line,” Isbell said.

The majority of those in need of assistance are elderly and are not able to use other forms of transportation.

“Seventy percent of our clients live alone. Many are unable to get on and

off buses on their own,” Isbell said.

Even out of season, FISH gets 30 requests a week, which is making it tougher to meet the demand.

The pool of volunteers for FISH is down about 40 percent, according to

Isbell, which amounts to roughly 21 volunteers. This is mainly due to the majority of volunteers being snowbirds who have left to return north.

Tom Lehnis is a year-round resident of North Port, and has been volun-teering with FISH since 2002. He knows there is a need for this type of program in the area.

“The main reason I help is that one day I may need it myself, so I feel the need to pay it forward now,” Lehnis said.

He currently does one trip a week on average, and it takes about two hours between the drive and the appointment.

“It is not a major commitment. I do it when they call me and when I can,” Lehnis said.

Drivers are called when someone is in need of assistance, and the first person who is available will go out and make the trip. Lehnis has been enjoying his time with FISH since he started helping out.

“For someone who’s looking to volunteer or donate, this is a pretty great and easy way to do it,” Lehnis said.

For the clients, FISH is a tremendous help. Barbara Olivares has been a client since 2009, and she is very appreciative of the service.

“I don’t know what I would do without FISH. Each and every volunteer gives their whole heart, and they are so dedicated to helping us,” she said.

Since her husband passed away in 2009, Olivares has been using FISH for assistance in grocery shopping and going to appointments. She doesn’t have a schedule to stick to, but uses the drivers whenever she needs them.

“They are the most beautiful, kind and wonderful people. It is so helpful for people who can’t drive and are in a predicament like this,” Olivares said.

Isbell knows the impact of the program, and is very passionate about it.

“I feel so strongly for this program. I don’t know what these people would do without it,” he said.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer with FISH, call Isbell at 941-429-8945.

North Port FISH in need of volunteer drivers By MADISON HEID

Special to the Sun

NORTH PORT — They have lived through the Great Depression, pro-hibition, World War II, and the advent of com-puters and cellphones. Bob and Mary Carson, both 90, celebrated 70 years of marriage on May 5. Friends Scott and Conni Brunni offered to host an anniversary party, which the couple at first tried to refuse.

Little did they ex-pect another friend, Linda Coleman, who is about to turn 67, to call. Coleman said she twisted her ankle, and asked if the Carsons could drive her to get it X-rayed. As Coleman had helped the couple with things like wiring their electronics after they moved into their new home in Sabal Trace, they said they would surely do her a favor and rushed over.

“She’s like a daughter to us,” Mary explained. “We rushed over, and she was sitting in the recliner with a towel over her ankle.” Just as they were torn with

pity, “here comes all our grandchildren and great-grandchildren from the bedroom; they drove through from Texas and kept it a secret since January.”

Coleman and the Brunnis had taken care of everything, coordinating with the Carsons’ grandchil-dren. The Brunnis hosted the anniversary soirée. Instead of cake, airbrushed cupcakes formed “70.”

Bob and Mary were delighted that everyone had kept it a secret. The couple only had

one child, a daughter Lynn who had died in her sleep while in Germany at 26 years of age, possibly from sleep apnea. Before she passed, Lynn had two children, Jonathan, now 43, and Andrea, 41, who now has four children — Kaitlyn, 17; Whitney, 21; Ayshia, 20; and Stacey, 19 — and two grandchildren: Layla, 3; and Aaliyah, 1.

Bob and Mary are originally from Peoria, Ill. They had known each other for many years. Not only had Mary bowled on a league with Bob’s mother, but Mary had originally dated Bob’s brother, John.

John wound up getting married before he joined the service during WWII. In fact, since John and Bob’s mother had all three of her sons in the service for war, she had asked Mary if she would send them each a Christmas card to help boost their spirits. It was Bob who replied to Mary.

Stationed at the Naval Air Station in Beeville, Texas, Bob asked Mary if she would like to

go out when he came home on leave. He arrived at the end of February and was only home for 12 days; they were together for eight of them.

“When I told my father that I was going to marry Bob, he said, ‘Wait a second, I thought you were going to marry John,’” Mary giggled.

They were both 20 when they were married. Though people thought three months was not a lot of time to have dated, especially when they were in different states for most of that time, Mary explained that

they had known each other longer than a few months.

“We had gone on double dates,” she said.

“We were married in 1945, and the war ended that summer,” Bob recalled. “The war in Europe ended first, then they dropped bombs on Japan, and they gave up. When they dropped atomic bombs, I was trans-ferred to Florida, which is where I was when the war ended. I got out in January of 1946.”

Not only did the couple recall WWII and air raid sirens for prac-tice in case something happened, expressing sorrow for the Japanese who lived in Hawaii, but also other histor-ical times. Mary said her aunt and uncle in Wisconsin, who had 12 children, were forced to surrender some of them to an orphanage during the Great Depression, as they could not afford to feed them all. Bob said his uncle had one bathtub dedicated strictly for making beer during prohibition.

The couple moved from Peoria to

Minneapolis, Minn., where Bob is a life-time member of the American Legion and was active in the Lions Club. They moved to Orlando in 1985 and relocated to North Port in 1988 when they had a house built. They both volunteered at the North Port Performing Arts Center.

They credit remaining active as key to their longevity, as they both loved boating, bowling, waterskiing and golfing.

“Even to this day, we try to get out of the house every day,” Mary said. “Good, clean living — that’s why we live long, and we do stay active.”

Bob shared his secret for a long and happy marriage: “Don’t get mad and stay mad.” He chuckled, “I walk away and start reading if I get mad.”

“Togetherness is very necessary,” Mary added. “We’ve done most things together, and we both like the same things.” They even pray together at the Living Waters Lutheran Church in Port Charlotte.

10 things to know

South Dakota was the center of weather extremes Sunday, with a tornado damaging a small town on the eastern side of the state and more than a foot of snow blanketing the Black Hills to the west.

Several Great Plains and Midwest states were in the path of severe weather, including in North Texas, where the National Weather Service said a likely tornado damaged roofs and trees near Denton. At the same time, a tropical storm came ashore in the Carolinas and wintry weather also affected parts of Colorado.

Tropical Storm Ana made

landfall near Myrtle Beach, S.C., on Sunday morning and was downgraded to a tropical depression by Sunday after-noon. The storm’s maximum sustained winds were at 35 mph, and it was expected to move over eastern North Carolina on Sunday night.

In South Dakota, National Weather Service meteorologist Philip Schumacher said law enforcement reported a tor-nado about 10:45 a.m. Sunday in Delmont — about 90 miles from Sioux Falls.

ST. AUGUSTINE — America’s oldest city is slowly drowning.

St. Augustine’s centuries-old Spanish fortress and other national landmarks sit feet from the encroaching Atlantic, whose waters already flood the city’s nar-row, brick-paved streets about 10 times a year — a problem worsening as sea levels rise. The city has long relied on tourism, but visitors to the fortress and Ponce de

Leon’s mythical Fountain of Youth might someday have to wear waders at high tide.

“If you want to benefit from the fact we’ve been here for 450 years, you have the responsibility to look forward to the next 450,” said Bill Hamilton, a 63-year-old horticulturist whose family has lived in the city since the 1950s. “Is St. Augustine even going to be here? We owe it to the people coming after us to leave the city in good shape.”

St. Augustine is one of many

chronically flooded communities along Florida’s 1,200-mile coastline, and officials in these diverse places share a common concern: They’re afraid their buildings and economies will be further inundated by rising seas in just a couple of decades. The effects are a daily reality in much of Florida. Drinking water wells are fouled by seawater. Higher tides and storm surges make for more frequent road flooding from Jacksonville to Key West, and they’re overburdening aging flood-control systems.

But the state has yet to offer a clear plan or coordination to address what local officials across Florida’s coast see as a slow-moving emergency. Republican Gov. Rick Scott is skeptical of man-made climate change and has put aside the task of preparing for sea level rise, an Associated Press review of thousands of emails and documents pertaining to the state’s preparations for rising seas found.

Despite warnings from water experts and climate scientists about risks to cities and drinking water, skepticism over sea level projections and climate change science has hampered planning efforts at all levels of government, the records showed. Florida’s environmental agencies under Scott have been downsized and retooled, making them less effective at coordinating sea level rise planning in the state, the documents showed.

“If I were governor, I’d be out there talking about it (sea level rise) every day,” said Eric Buermann, the former general counsel to the Republican Party of Florida

HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) — Two Mississippi police officers were shot to death during an evening traffic stop turned violent, a state law enforcement spokesman said Sunday. Three suspects were in custody, including two who are charged with capital murder.

The deaths of the officers — the first to hit Hattiesburg in three decades — were felt far and wide in this small southern Mississippi city. Gov. Phil Bryant released a statement saying he was “mourning” the loss of the officers.

“This should remind us to thank all law enforce-ment for their unwav-ering service to protect and serve. May God keep them all in the hollow of his hand,” Bryant said.

Warren Strain, a spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, said Marvin Banks, 29, and Joanie Calloway, 22, were each charged with two

counts of capital murder. Banks was also charged with one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm and with grand theft for fleeing in the police cruiser after the shooting, Strain said.

“He absconded with a Hattiesburg police cruiser. He didn’t get very far, three or four blocks and then he ditched that

vehicle,” Strain said.Banks’ 26-year-old

brother, Curtis Banks, was charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of capital murder.

The three Hattiesburg residents were arrested without incident at dif-ferent locations overnight following the shooting, Strain said. They were ex-pected to face initial court

appearances Monday. The three were being held at undisclosed jails in the state and could not be reached for comment. It was not immediately known if they had lawyers.

Strain said both officers died of their wounds at a hospital.

Lt. Jon Traxler, a Hattiesburg Police Department spokesman, identified the officers who died as 34-year-old Benjamin Deen, 34, and Liquori Tate, 25. Local re-ports identified Deen as a past department “Officer of the Year,” and Tate was a newcomer to the force who Strain said was a 2014 graduate of the law enforcement academy.

The preliminary inves-tigation indicated that Deen had pulled over the vehicle on suspicion of speeding and then called for backup, which is when Liquori arrived. Strain said it was too early to say who shot the officers or how many shots were fired.

WASHINGTON (AP) — As the Senate prepares to debate his trade agenda, President Barack Obama is sharpening his criticisms of a vocal opponent on the left.

In a weekend in-terview with Yahoo Politics, the president said Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts is factual-ly wrong and politically motivated in fighting his efforts to obtain “fast track” authority to nego-tiate trade agreements that Congress can accept or reject but not change.

“Elizabeth is, you know,

a politician like every-body else,” Obama said. “She’s got a voice that she wants to get out there. And I understand that. And on most issues, she and I deeply agree. On this one, though, her ar-guments don’t stand the test of fact and scrutiny.”

Obama didn’t suggest that he’s not a politician also. But his comments may have been aimed at liberal activists who tend to see Warren as a crusader for the working class, and somewhat above politics. She en-tered the Senate at age 63 after years of battling for

consumers and criticiz-ing Wall Street abuses.

The Senate faces a key procedural vote Tuesday, and full debate on trade can’t proceed unless 60 of the 100 members agree to it.

Obama said Warren is particularly wrong in criti-cizing an element of trade deals called investor-state dispute settlement, or ISDS. The process allows foreign companies to sue national governments in special tribunals if the companies feel they were harmed by violations of free-trade agreements. Warren and others say

ISDS can let multinational corporations seek huge payments from coun-tries while sidestepping traditional courts.

Obama disputed that in the Yahoo interview. “There is no chance, zero chance, that the U.S. would be sued on something like our finan-cial regulations, and on food safety, and on the various environmental regulations that we have in place, mainly because we treat everybody the same,” he said. “We treat our own companies the same way we treat some-body else’s companies.”

NATIONAL NEWS BRIEFSIt’s a happy Mother’s Day for endangered

right whalesBOSTON (AP) — For

marine biologists at the New England Aquarium, it’s a super-sized Mother’s Day.

Scientists at the Boston-based center say 17 new North Atlantic right whale calves have recently been born, adding to one of the most endangered whale populations on the planet.

Experts say only about 500 of the mammals classified as “critically endangered” are left on Earth. The Aquarium says the new births are a special cause for celebra-tion because right whales historically have had a low reproductive rate.

The whale mothers gave birth in waters near the border of Florida and Georgia — their primary winter habitat — and they recently arrived in New England with their calves in tow. Six pairs of mothers and calves have been spotted feeding on plankton in Cape Cod Bay.

Wisconsin DA to announce decision

in shooting by policeman

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin prosecutor said he will announce on Tuesday whether charges will be filed against a white police officer who fatally shot an unarmed 19-year-old biracial man in Madison.

Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne had promised to give the public advance notice of the announcement in the case of Madison Officer Matt Kenny, who shot 19-year-old Tony

Robinson in an apart-ment house on March 6.

Police have said Kenny was responding to reports that Robinson had assaulted two people and was running in traffic. Investigators said Robinson attacked Kenny but other details haven’t been released.

Governor says nuclear plant fire produced Hudson

River oil slickBUCHANAN, N.Y. (AP)

— Part of a nuclear power plant remained offline Sunday after a transformer fire created another problem: thousands of gallons of oil leaking into the Hudson River.

At an afternoon briefing, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said emergency crews were out on the water near Buchanan trying to contain and clean up the transformer fluid that leaked from Indian Point 3.

“There’s no doubt that oil was discharged into the Hudson River,” Cuomo said. “Exactly how much, we don’t know.”

The transformer at the plant about 30 miles north of midtown Manhattan failed on Saturday evening, causing a fire that forced the automatic shutdown.

Cuomo revealed Sunday that even after the blaze on the non-nuclear side of the plant was quickly doused, the heat reignited the fire, but it was again extinguished.

Oil in the transformer seeped into a holding tank that did not have the capacity to contain all the fluid, which then entered river waters through a discharge drain.

The cleanup should take a day or two, Cuomo said.

TOKYO (AP) — A Japanese zoo has apologized after being criticized for naming a baby monkey Charlotte, the name of the newborn British princess.

The Takasakiyama Natural Zoological Garden said Thursday it was considering renaming the macaque. It was flooded with angry calls and emails Wednesday after announcing the name for its first monkey born this year, a tradition at the zoo run by the southern city of Oita.

Charlotte was the favorite in a public ballot, receiving 59 out of 853 votes in the counting, conducted after the female monkey was born Wednesday.

Votes for Charlotte surged after the British princess was named Monday and topped the ballot in the last three days of voting, which ran from March 27 to May 6.

Many critics said giving the princess’ name to a monkey was disrespectful to British royals. According to zoo official Akira Asano, some said the Japanese people would feel offended if a monkey were named after Japanese princesses.

who also served as a water district governing board member. “I think he’s really got to grab ahold of this, set a vision, a long-term vision, and rally the people behind it. Unless you’re going to build a sea wall around South Florida, what’s the plan?”

The issue presents a public works challenge that could cost billions here and nationwide. In the third-most populous U.S. state, where most residents live near a coast, municipalities say they need statewide coordination and aid to prepare for the costly road ahead.

Communities like St. Augustine can do only so much alone. If one city builds a seawall, it might divert water to a neigh-bor. Cities also lack the technology, money and manpower to keep back the seas by themselves.

In a brief interview with the AP in March, Scott wouldn’t address whether the state had a long-range plan. He cited his support for Everglades restoration and some flood-control projects as progress but said cities and counties should con-tact environmental and water agencies to find answers — though Scott and a GOP-led legislature have slashed billions in funding from those agencies. Spokespeople for the water districts and other agencies disputed that cuts have affected their abilities to plan.

“We will continue to make investments and find solutions to protect our environment and preserve Florida’s natural beauty for our future generations,” the gover-nor said in a statement.

Florida’s Department of Environmental Protection is in charge of protecting the state environment and water but has taken no official position on sea level rise, according to documents. DEP spokes-woman Lauren Engel said the agency’s strategy is to aid local communities and others through the state’s routine

beach-nourishment and water-monitoring programs.

In St. Augustine, downtown streets around 19th century buildings built by oil tycoon Henry Flagler often close during nor’easters because of flooding. While the city’s proximity to the sea has always made flooding a problem, residents say it’s worsened over the past 15 to 20 years.

St. Augustine’s civil engineer says that the low-lying village will probably need a New Orleans-style pumping system to keep water out — but that no one knows exactly what to do and the state’s been unhelpful.

“Only when the frequency of flooding increases will people get nervous about it, and by then it will be too late,” engineer Reuben Franklin said. “There’s no guidance from the state or fed-eral level. ... Everything I’ve found to help I’ve gotten by searching the Internet.”

Across coastal Florida, sea levels are rising faster than previously mea-sured, according to feder-al estimates. In addition to more flooding at high tide, increasing sea levels also mean higher surges during tropical storms and hurricanes, and more inundation of drinking wells throughout Florida.

Water quality is a big concern for many communities. It’s es-pecially bad in South

Florida — just north of Miami, Hallandale Beach has abandoned six of eight drinking water wells because of saltwater intrusion. Wells in north-east and central Florida are deemed at risk too.

While South Florida water officials have led the charge in addressing sea level rise concerns in their area, their attempt to organize a statewide plan was met with indifference, documents show. The Scott adminis-tration has organized just a few conference calls to coordinate local efforts, records show. Those came only after Florida’s water district managers asked DEP for help.

In a recent visit to Everglades National Park, President Barack Obama said the wetlands, vital to Florida’s tourism economy and drinking water supply, already are threatened by infusions of saltwater from rising seas.

The list of other prob-lems across the state is growing. Miami Beach is spending $400 million on new stormwater pumps to keep seawater from overwhelming an outdat-ed sewer system.

In St. Augustine, homes built on sand dunes teeter over open space as erosion eats at the foundations. Beachside hotel owners worry about their livelihoods.

Tampa and Miami are particularly vulnerable to rising seas — many

roads and bridges weren’t designed to handle higher tides, according to the National Climate Change Assessment. Officials say Daytona Beach roads, too, flood more often than in the 1990s.

South Miami passed a resolution calling for South Florida to secede from the more conserva-tive northern half of the state so it could deal with climate change itself.

Insurance giant Swiss Re has estimated that the economy in southeast Florida could sustain $33 billion in damage from rising seas and other climate-related damage in 2030, according to the Miami-Dade Sea Level Rise Task Force.

Cities like St. Augustine have looked for help, but Scott’s disregard for cli-mate change science has created a culture of fear among state employees, records show.

The administration has been adamant that employees, including sci-entists, not “assign cause” in public statements about global warming or sea level rise, internal government emails show.

For example, an April 28, 2014, email ap-proving a DEP scientist’s request to participate in a National Geographic story came with a warn-ing: “Approved. Make no claims as to cause … stay with the research you are doing, of course,” the DEP manager, Pamela Phillips, warned.

“I know the drill,” responded Mike Shirley, manager of the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve near St. Augustine.

Agency spokeswoman Engel said Phillips was a lower-level staffer whose views didn’t necessarily reflect the entire admin-istration. When asked whether staffers are told not to assign cause, Scott’s office said “the allegations are not true.”

Most towns say they cannot afford the cost of climate change studies or regional coordination.

“For us, it’s a reality, it’s not a political issue,” said Courtney Barker, city manager of Satellite

Beach. The town near Cape Canaveral used to flood during tropical weather, but now just a heavy rainstorm can make roads impassable for commuters.

“When you have to listen to that mantra, ‘Climate change, is it real or not?’ you kind of chuckle, because you see it,” Barker said.

Scott administration officials are moving forward on a five-year plan that will provide basic guidance to cities dealing with sea level rise. Scott has appointed the Department of Economic Opportunity as the lead agency overseeing the project.

The DEO has received nearly $1 million in federal grants for the plan. More than half has been spent on staff time and travel or hasn’t yet been allocated, according to documents. The rest, about $450,000, went to contract researchers who are helping create the document, due in 2016. Agency spokes-woman Jessica Sims wouldn’t comment and refused requests for the program’s manager to be interviewed.

In one grant-funded study, Florida State University researchers asked local leaders about sea rise. Some officials complained to research-ers about the “poisonous political atmosphere” over climate change hampering progress. The AP obtained the report in a public records request.

“In some cases, espe-cially at the local level, planners are constrained by perceptions among elected officials that there is a lack of reliable scientific information to support the existence of sea level rise,” report authors summarized.

Scott’s office again said “the allegations are not true” when asked about the political atmosphere in government agencies.

As for concerns over drinking water, water district officials said they were happy with the state’s funding. But internal emails show frustration among those working behind the scenes to better organize a statewide sea level rise planning group.

“I often worry about the next generations; I think they will survive in spite of us,” Dave DeWitt, a staffer at the Southwest Florida Water Management District, said in an email to colleagues. A district spokeswoman wouldn’t comment on policy beyond the district.

St. Augustine officials say they need state-level coordination, or in coming decades much of historic downtown could be ankle-deep in water at high tide.

Franklin, the engineer, added, “Are we going to be early to the game in terms of planning for this, or late?”

spokeswoman Lindsey Meyers said three people were in good condition at a local hospital. No deaths were reported.

South Dakota Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Kristi Turman said about 20 buildings were damaged and the town has no water, power or phones.

“One side of town was taken away,” Delmont resident Anita Mathews told the AP. She said a large Lutheran church had been heavily damaged as well as a new fire hall.

In North Texas, a likely tornado ripped roofs off buildings and damaged trees near Denton, about 40 miles northwest of Dallas, according to National Weather Service

meteorologist Tom Bradshaw.

About 100 miles west of Fort Worth, people in the sparsely populated ranch-ing and farming commu-nity of Cisco were left to clean up from Saturday’s tornado that left one person dead and another in critical condition. Cisco Fire Department spokesman Phillip Truitt said the two people were near each other.

The National Weather Service said that tornado was rated an EF-3, with winds ranging from 136 to 165 mph. At least six buildings were damaged south of Cisco, as well as six others near Lake Leon, Truitt said.

A strong line of storms moved through the Dallas-Fort Worth area Sunday morning, forcing significant delays and a total of 100 flight cancella-tions at Dallas-Fort Worth

International Airport and Dallas Love Field Airport.

Forecasters issued tornado watches through Sunday evening for parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Iowa, South Dakota, Nebraska and Minnesota.

Farther north, a late-season snow fell in parts of the Rockies, west-ern Nebraska and western South Dakota.

National Weather Service meteorologist Kyle Carstens said between 10 to 18 inches of snow was on the ground Sunday morning in the Black Hills, and totals could reach 20-24 inches by the time the system moves out. Rapid City, South Dakota, had 8-11 inches, accompanied by 20-30 mph winds.

Nearly 18 inches of snow fell in southern Colorado, a state that also saw hail, flooding and tornado warnings over the weekend.

NORTH PORT — According to the City of North Port Facebook page, Interstate 75 was closed between Kings Highway and Toledo Blade as four to five fires likely caused by dry lightning broke out in the city of North Port Sunday.

The major fire, which started in the area of Joe Wood Circle, jumped I-75 and ignited the area

around N. San Mateo Dr. The fires covered around 100 acres in total.

As of 9 p.m., the fires had been roughly 80 percent contained, with no major struc-ture damage. Crews were still working on hotspots, with no word on when I-75 would be reopened.

Units from Englewood, Nokomis, Sarasota, Charlotte, and Lee counties have responded.

WEST POINT, N.Y. (AP) — Benjamin O. Davis Jr. entered West Point in 1932 as its only black cadet and spent the next four years shunned. He roomed alone, and no one be-friended him. The future Tuskegee Airman and trailblazing Air Force general later said he was “an invisible man.”

Now, more than a de-cade after his death, the academy that allowed Davis to be ostracized is honoring him.

A new cadet barracks being constructed among the fortress-like buildings of the U.S. Military Academy will be named for Davis — a rare privilege previously granted to graduates with names like MacArthur and Eisenhower. Officials at the storied academy say Davis was a natural choice by dint of his career and character. It also gives the academy

a chance to belatedly do right by Davis.

“If you want to know what, ‘Duty, Honor, Country’ look like, just read a little bit about Benjamin O. Davis Jr., and your jaw will drop because he is the epitome of what we want at a time when we didn’t know what ‘right’ looked like,” said Col. Ty Seidule, the head of West Point’s history de-partment and a head of the naming committee. “So it’s our chance to acknowledge one of our greatest graduates.”

Davis, who died in 2002 at age 89, has a history-soaked resume that includes com-manding the all-black 332nd Fighter Group, known as the Red Tails, and becoming the first black general of the Air Force, which he joined in 1947. He retired as a three-star general in 1970 and was awarded a fourth star in 1998 by

President Bill Clinton.West Point grad-

uated its first black cadet at the tail-end of Reconstruction in 1877, though no black cadet had graduated in the 20th century when Davis arrived at the academy along the

Hudson River.Some cadets clearly

wanted to keep it that way.

Davis was “silenced,” a coordinated shunning usually reserved for cadets who violated the honor code. He roomed by himself, and fellow

cadets spoke to him only as needed. Mess hall tables with empty places would be too full for him to sit.

“I was to be silenced solely because the ca-dets did not want blacks at West Point. Their only purpose was to freeze me out,” Davis wrote in his 1991 autobiography. “What they did not realize was that I was stubborn enough to put up with their treatment to reach the goal I had come to obtain.”

Davis wrote that while West Point adminis-trators could maintain the silencing was not official, “they knew precisely how I was being treated.”

Davis refused to buckle. He took long, solo runs through the surrounding hills, listened to his radio and wrote cheerful letters home. He graduated 35th in a class of 276.

In the end, his steely

tenacity won respect from the very cadets who made his four years so difficult. His yearbook entry notes that he earned “the sincere admiration of his classmates.”

Davis, a Washington, D.C., native, went on to a long career in which he persevered in the face of racism, notably with the pioneering Tuskegee Airmen.

“He tried to tell us that it was not going to be easy, because we had not been accepted as full citizens of the United States,” said Needham Jones, 96, who served under Davis in the 99th Pursuit Squadron in ground support and the motor pool.

“He said, ‘Don’t you let nobody tell you — don’t you never believe — that you are inferior to anybody else,’ … it meant a hell of a lot to us,” Jones said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The “Age of Ultron” is not over. The Avengers sequel topped the domestic box office for the second weekend in a row with an estimated $77.2 million according to Rentrak estimates Sunday.

The film has earned a staggering $312.9 mil-lion in just 10 days in theaters, tying with “The Dark Knight” to become the second-fastest film to do so.

While a wild success by any measure, the film is still lagging behind the record-setting precedent of 2012’s “The Avengers,”

which made $103.1 mil-lion in its second weekend in theaters and had a domestic total of $373 million at the same point in the cycle.

“Avengers: Age of Ultron” also added $68.3 million inter-nationally, bringing its worldwide total to $875.3 million. The Disney and Marvel sequel opens in China on May 12 with mid-night screenings. The midnight sellouts have even prompted Chinese IMAX screens to add 3 a.m. showings to their schedule.

“Hot Pursuit,” mean-while, failed to make a significant mark in its debut weekend, earning a less-than-impressive $13.3 million. The Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara buddy comedy, which cost a reported $35 million to produce, was projected to earn at least $18 million out of the gates.

“Critics were very tough on ‘Hot Pursuit,’” said Rentrak’s Senior Media Analyst Paul Dergarabedian. Considering the power of female audiences at the box office, and the

frequency of female-driv-en films to over-perform, the lagging enthusiasm around “Hot Pursuit” is puzzling.

“It was a formula for whatever reason didn’t resonate with the critics, and I think that had an impact on its box office,” Dergarabedian said.

Ultimately, it’s still an “Avengers” world, at least until “Mad Max: Fury Road” and “Pitch Perfect 2” open next weekend.

“‘Ultron’ is just so big. It’s such a behemoth. It’s hard for a newcom-er to get attention,”

Dergarabedian said.Estimated ticket sales

for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Rentrak. Where available, the latest international numbers for Friday through Sunday are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.

1. “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” $77.2 mil-lion ($68.3 million international).

2. “Hot Pursuit,” $13.3 million ($1.4 mil-lion international).

3. “The Age of Adaline,”

$5.6 million ($2.6 million international).

4. “Furious 7,” $5.3 mil-lion ($19.6 million international).

5. “Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2,” $5.2 million ($3 mil-lion international).

6. “Ex Machina,” $3.5 million.

7. “Home,” $3 mil-lion ($6 million international).

8. “Woman In Gold,” $1.7 million.

9. “Cinderella,” $1.6 million ($4 million international).

10. “Unfriended,” $1.4 million ($3.2 million international).

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Cuban President Raul Castro paid a call Sunday on Pope Francis at the Vatican to thank him for working for Cuban-U.S. detente — and said he was so impressed by the pontiff he is considering a return to the Catholic church’s fold.

“Bienvenido (wel-come)!” Francis said in his native Spanish, welcoming Castro to his studio near the Vatican public audience hall. The Cuban president, bowing his head, gripped Francis’ hand with both of his, and the two men began private talks. The meeting lasted nearly an hour, as the Argentine-born Francis and Castro spoke in Spanish.

Francis will visit Cuba in September en route to the United States.

After leaving the Vatican, Castro, the brother of Fidel, the revolutionary leader who brought the Communists to power in Cuba, gushed with praise for Francis.

The pontiff “is a Jesuit, and I, in some way, am too,” Castro said at a news conference. “I always studied at Jesuit schools.”

“When the pope goes

to Cuba in September, I promise to go to all his Masses, and with satisfaction,” Castro said at a news conference at the office of Italian Premier Matteo Renzi, whom he met with after the Vatican talks.

“I read all the speeches of the pope, his com-mentaries, and if the pope continues this way, I will go back to praying and go back to the church, and I’m not joking,” he said.

It was a startling assertion for the leader of a Communist country, whose crackdown on dissidents in the past had drawn sharp Vatican criticism.

“I am from the Cuban Communist Party, that doesn’t allow (religious) believers, but now we are allowing it, it’s an important step,” Castro said.

Speaking about Francis, Castro said he has been “very impressed by his wisdom, his mod-esty, and all his virtues that we know he has.”

Castro had already publicly thanked Francis for helping to bring Havana and Washington closer together after decades of U.S. government

policy of strict isolation of the Communist-ruled Caribbean island. On Sunday, he stepped up his praise on Francis’ push for the two nations to put enmity aside and work for reconcili-ation for the benefit of Americans and Cubans.

As he took his leave from the Vatican, Castro told journalists, “I thanked the pope for what he did.”

Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said the presi-dent also “laid out to the pope the sentiments of the Cuban people in the wait and preparation for his upcoming visit to the island in September.”

After his meeting with Renzi, Castro expressed hope that his country would quickly see more fruits of the thaw between Cuba and the

United States. “Maybe the (U.S.) Senate will take us off the list of terrorist nations” soon, Castro told reporters.

Francis gave Castro a medal depicting St. Martin of Tours, known for caring for the destitute.

“With his mantle he covers the poor,” Francis told Castro, saying more efforts on behalf of the poor are needed.

YOLA, Nigeria (AP) — The taunts wouldn’t stop. “Boko Haram wives,” the schoolgirls were called because they had been briefly held by Nigeria’s Islamic extremists before es-caping. The teasing was so relentless that some of the Chibok girls left

their town and families.Their plight does not

bode well for hundreds of girls and women recently rescued from months of captivity by Boko Haram, including dozens who are preg-nant. After enduring captivity by the militants, the females may now

face stigma from their communities.

“The most important thing is to restore their dignity,” the executive director of the United Nations Population Fund, Babatunde Osotimehin, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview

from his office in New York.

“When you have been in captivity against your will, and God knows whatever they have done to them, some of them will have been violated, some raped, food insecure. … We need to take them, work with them and bring them back to the reality of their lives,” said Osotimehin, who is Nigerian.

His agency is provid-ing the women and girls with intense psycho-social counseling and medical care for repro-ductive and maternal health. It is also encour-aging communities to allow the girls to return in peace.

That will be a chal-lenge, going by com-ments made last week by Gov. Kashim Shettima of Borno, the home state of Boko Haram and the one most affected by the nearly 6-year-old Islamic uprising that has killed more than 12,000 people and forced more than 1.5 million from their homes.

The governor said he feared that girls and women raped and made pregnant by the extrem-ists could be breeding

a new generation of terrorists.

Shettima called for a special monitoring program of the mothers to identify paternity because he said the militants had deliberate-ly impregnated them so they would give birth to future insurgents.

“I am seriously worried with the fact that most women tend to hate and abandon children they deliver from rape. Now, the problem is that these children could go to the streets unattended … they then lack access to food, health care and education. The result is that they could indeed inherit their fathers’ (ideology) somehow,” Shettima told govern-ment officials, according to the Nigerian press.

Such statements from a man of Shettima’s standing are “very unfortunate” and would reinforce the very stigma he says he wants to avoid, said Human Rights Watch researcher Mausi Segun.

Segun has interviewed many females who escaped from Boko Haram and described their experiences as “very traumatizing and horrifying.”

insurgents, army rebels back 5-day

cease-fireSANAA, Yemen (AP)

— Yemen’s Shiite rebels and their allies in the country’s splintered armed forces said Sunday they would accept a five-day humanitarian cease-fire to allow aid to reach civilians after more than a month of airstrikes from a Saudi-led military coalition.

The cease-fire, sched-uled to begin Tuesday, would help ease the suffering of civilians in the Arab world’s poorest country who increasingly lack food, fuel and medicine since the bombing campaign began March 26.

However, all sides in the conflict have warned they will retaliate if the cease-fire is broken.

Exit poll: Opposition forces runoff in Poland’s presidential voteWARSAW, Poland (AP)

— Nationalist opposition candidate Andrzej Duda made a surprisingly strong showing Sunday in the first round of Poland’s presidential election, apparently forcing a runoff with incumbent Bronislaw Komorowski who faces a tough re-elec-tion campaign, according to exit poll results.

Duda, who is no fan of the European Union, was predicted to receive 34.5 percent of the vote to Komorowski’s 33.1 per-cent, according to the IPSOS exit poll released by the private TVN24 and the state-run PAP news agency.

The poll results suggest rising dissatisfaction with the ruling pro-EU estab-lishment led by the cen-ter-right and pro-busi-ness Civic Platform party, which has been in power since 2007. Komorowski was a member but left in order to be a non-aligned president. The dissatis-faction was also reflected in the unexpectedly high support — 20.5 percent of the vote — predicted for punk rock star Pawel Kukiz, an anti-establish-ment candidate critical of the government.

Official results could be announced late Monday, the State Electoral Commission said.

Center-left party seen winning

German state voteBERLIN (AP) —

Germany’s main center-left party won an election Sunday in the country’s smallest state, Bremen, and is expected to prolong its decades-long dominance there despite losing significant support, exit polls indicated.

Bremen has been led by the center-left Social Democrats since the 1940s. Exit polls for ARD and ZDF television showed them winning around 33 percent of the vote, down from more than 38 percent four years ago.

The polls also pointed to a thin majority at best in the state legislature for Mayor Jens Boehrnsen’s current coalition with the Greens, who also lost ground.

Still, his party was well ahead of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s conserva-tive Christian Democrats, who are traditionally weak in Bremen but improved their tally mod-estly to about 23 percent. The conservatives have previously served as a junior governing party in Bremen.

WEATHER/STATE NEWS

CLEARWATER (AP) — The pool is still there. It’s shrouded by palm fronds and heavy gates, but it’s there. Stand on Pierce Street, beyond the walls of the Fort Harrison Hotel, and you can hear families splashing, even smell the chlorine.

Close your eyes and picture this pool a half-century ago. Picture the Rolling Stones, then a scrum of scrawny Brits in lounge chairs, smoking cigs and scratching out a song that would change the course of music.

Depending on the legend you believe, it was here, 50 years ago while in town for a concert on May 6, 1965, that Keith Richards and Mick Jagger wrote (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction. It’s the Rolling Stones’ signature song and one of the most enduring rock singles ever recorded.

Richards suppos-edly composed that

one-of-a-kind riff while half asleep in his sixth-floor bed, and Jagger banged out those eyebrow-arching lyrics in 10 minutes by this very pool.

Did it really go down that way? Well, the truth is fuzzier than the dis-tortion on Keef’s mighty Gibson Les Paul. That hasn’t stopped Stones fanatics from retelling the tale time and time again — and given the song’s impact over the last five decades, why should it?

This may be Tampa Bay’s most indelible mark on rock ‘n’ roll history.

Memories get foggy after 50 years, especially when it comes to the Stones. For some clarity, you have to take a step back.

At the beginning of 1965, the Stones were arguably the world’s second most popular

rock band. Yet the 20-somethings had an edge, a darkness, a swag-ger that made them feel more dangerous than the Beatles.

They surfed into Clearwater behind a tsunami of hype, includ-ing a May 2 appearance on Ed Sullivan, and organizers of the concert at Jack Russell Stadium were prepared for an onslaught of teenage rabidity. Sure enough, the pandemonium got so intense that the plug was pulled after just four songs, with screaming fans storming the stage, the band fleeing for safety and one city official swearing, “There will never be another show like this as long as I am here.” The Stones skipped town the next day.

How, in the midst of all this, did Satisfaction enter the picture?

Every version of the

story agrees on a few basics: Richards awoke from his slumber, grabbed an acoustic gui-tar and cassette recorder, hammered out that original riff — dunt-dunt, da-da-dunnn, da-da-da-da-da — and then fell back asleep, capturing 40 more minutes of snoring. He then played the song for Jagger, who wrote the lyrics by the hotel pool.

“Satisfaction was a typical collaboration between Mick and me at the time,” Richards wrote in his 2010 memoir Life. “I would come up with the song and the basic idea, and Mick would do all the hard work of filling it in and making it interesting.”

The most popular ac-count is that the riff and lyrics both originated at the Jack Tar Harrison Hotel, later known as the Fort Harrison Hotel, which since the mid ’70s has been part of

the worldwide spiritual headquarters of the Church of Scientology. Their stay here May 6 is well-documented through vintage photo-graphs and newspaper reports.

However, former bassist Bill Wyman’s 1990 memoir A Stone Alone mentions only one Clearwater hotel by name — the much tinier Gulf Motel at 419 Coronado Drive in Clearwater Beach. This, he writes, is where the Stones bunked the night before the Jack Russell gig. This seems unlikely — why would such a big band switch hotels mid-stay? — but then again, Wyman is a lifelong diarist generally considered a reliable Stones source.

A third theory arose with Richards’ memoir. While he admits playing the riff for Jagger in Clearwater, he leaves the

impression that his mys-tical midnight recording might have taken place well before Florida, back at his flat in London. This new alternate history, since repeated in other books, came as a surprise even to those closest to the band.

“I believe that the London version of events first appeared with Keith’s Life,” the song’s producer, Andrew Loog Oldham, wrote in an email to the Tampa Bay Times. “Until that time, Clearwater was the given location by Keith. In any event, even the Scientologists believed it to be true. When they took over the premises, they are supposed to have had the room, supposedly on the 6th floor, ‘cleaned’ of the Rolling Stones’ influ-ence.” (Inquiries to the Church of Scientology on this matter received no reply.)

50 years ago, Stones’ ‘Satisfaction’ song born in Florida

A 750-acre brush fire in the Picayune Strand State Forest in Collier County has been 95 percent contained, a Florida Forestry Service source said Sunday.

Smoke from the fire could still be seen on Alligator Alley though con-ditions are not bad enough to prompt road closures. Authorities are asking drivers to use caution.

Firefighters from multiple units were battling the fire, which ignited around 1 p.m. Saturday near Everglades

Boulevard and 52nd Avenue S.E.

The Florida Highway Patrol recommend motorists use low beam headlights and slow down when driving in smoke and fog.

A spokesman for the Florida Forestry Service said the fire was stub-born and took some time to control. She said crews would be observing the burned area into next week to watch for rekindled fire.

Heather Ferrand, a mitigation specialist, said the continued observation was due to the difficulty of getting to the area where the fire was burning.

Due to smoke from the weekend fire, the Florida Highway Patrol warned drivers to use extreme caution when driving in smoke and fog.

To make sure driv-ers know what to do when they encounter smoke and fog, the Florida Highway Patrol along with the Florida Forest Service and the Florida Department of Transportation are promoting a safety cam-paign. Wildfires, smoke, fog and heavy rain can all lower visibility on the roads. It is important for motorist to drive as safely as possible in these conditions.

HEADLINE NEWS FROM AROUND THE STATEObama dials woman

with Mother’s Day wishes

ORMOND BEACH (AP) — A Florida woman’s letter to the White House prompted a Mother’s Day greeting from President Barack Obama.

Touched by Obama’s words in his State of the Union speech about his own mother, Patricia Church of Ormond Beach penned a note to the president.

On Wednesday, while at her customer service job, she got a stunning call.

“Hi, Patty? Hey, this is Barack Obama,” it began. “No way!” she replied. “Way!” the president responded.

— A monument has been dedicated to memorialize those killed in Tampa Bay’s 1980 Sunshine Skyway Bridge disaster.

The 6-foot-tall mon-ument was unveiled on Saturday, the 35th anniver-sary of the bridge collapse that killed 35 people.

A 600-foot freighter struck the southbound span of the bridge during a violent storm on May 9, 1980, causing eight vehicles on the bridge’s center section to collapse into Tampa Bay.

The granite memorial features the names of those killed and an engraving of the original Skyway Bridge.

Manatee County weighs earlier start for high schoolers

BRADENTON (AP) — Some Florida teens may be in for an earlier wake-up call.

Manatee County’s school board is set to debate starting high school start times 15 min-utes earlier in a Tuesday meeting. Under the proposal, classes would begin at 7:30 a.m. to accommodate a change in class schedules.

The change goes against the advice of many experts, who say teenage sleep patterns make later start times more effective. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends start times for middle and high schools of 8:30 a.m. or later.

Fowler debunks overrated tag

PONTE VEDRA BEACH — The latest survey was unani-mous, not anonymous. Rickie Fowler can deliver the goods.

Facing a five-shot deficit with six holes to play, Fowler produced the greatest finish in the 34-year history of the TPC Sawgrass. In a three-man playoff on three of the most visually intimidating holes in golf, he never backed down.

And when he faced that nervous shot over the water to an island for the third time Sunday, he was as good as ever.

No, there was nothing overrated about him.

Criticized in an anonymous survey by some of his peers for not being able to win, Fowler answered with a victory at The Players Championship. At a tournament that dresses up like a major, Fowler looked the part in beating the strongest

field in golf with an array of shots that won’t be forgotten.

As for that survey?“I laughed at the poll,” he

said. “But, yeah, if there was any question, I think this right here answers anything you need to know.”

It was hard work.He took six shots on the

par-3 17th hole, which is not unusual for a Sunday except that Fowler played it three times. And even with the record-setting finish at the Stadium Course — birdie-ea-gle-birdie-birdie on the last four holes for a 5-under 67

FSU is an NFL

OrlandO Sentinel

Marketing has never been some-thing I’ve been

particularly interested in, but I believe I have come up with three excellent recruiting slogans for Jimbo Fisher.

You ready?1. Florida State: The

place where we turn high school recruits into NFL draft picks.

2. FSU: Football Seasoning Unprecedented.

3. NFL hopes in limbo? Then come see Jimbo!

In recent years, nobody in college football has beget more pros than Fisher, who watched 11 of his players selected in last week’s NFL draft and has had 29 players drafted since 2013 — an unprece-dented three-year stretch that set a modern-day NFL record.

There are a number of reasons Jimbo has become the king of the draft, starting with an obvious one: He is one of the best recruiters in college football and has lured some of the top talent in the country to Tallahassee in his six years as coach. His recent string of NFL draft picks can also be attributed to this: Florida and Miami have been irrelevant, which means Jimbo has further dominated the state in re-cruiting and lured an even better brand of talent.

But it’s not just recruit-ing. Jimbo has taken those recruits and turned them into a championship-level college program and an NFL-ready product. In a

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — On a muggy Saturday afternoon, two children dragged their parents through the garage area at Kansas Speedway, intent on catching up to a hero they had seen only on television.

They weren’t after Jeff Gordon or Jimmie Johnson, though. They were after a giant, yellow Nickelodeon character

— better known as SpongeBob SquarePants — whose name was at-tached to the Sprint Cup race featuring Gordon, Johnson and the sport’s biggest stars that night.

ST. PETERSBURG — Logan Forsythe thought James Loney’s one-out hit to cen-ter field looked harder than it was during Sunday’s ninth inning against Texas.

And once the ball was airborne, Forsythe couldn’t tell whether Texas’ Leonys Martin got a good jump on it.

So as the potential tying run, Forsythe paused at second before watching the ball drop instead of bolting toward home.

“It’s a cautious base-running move,” Forsythe said, “but I wouldn’t say it was a great one.”

It was nonetheless a costly one in Tampa Bay’s 2-1 loss at Tropicana Field.

Early, it didn’t seem as if the Rays (17-15) would even have a runner. Texas starter Wandy Rodriguez threw five perfect innings, extending his streak of retired batters to 34 — the most in Rangers history, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

“He was hitting his spots today,” Forsythe said.

TAMPA — Just because Tampa Bay is losing its grip on this series doesn’t mean it’s losing its nerve.

It hasn’t looked good, with Tampa Bay drop-ping two straight games and watching its 3-0 lead against Montreal in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal cut to 3-2 heading into Tuesday’s Game 6 at Amalie Arena.

But the Lightning players insist they are not feeling any extra pressure, believing in the resiliency and character they’ve shown all season. Plus, they are betting the Canadiens would love to trade positions, momen-tum or not.

“The law of averages (is) our ‘A’ game is going to come out soon,” veter-an wing Brenden Morrow said. “We haven’t had

our best stuff yet. We still believe our best hockey matches up pretty good against other teams’ best hockey. We just have to find a way to muster it up. Hopefully this little bit of adversity and somewhat desperation now is going to bring that out of us.”

Morrow believes Tampa Bay might be suffering a “hangover” from its emotional seven-game series with Detroit in the first round. Coach Jon Cooper said the team’s Achilles’ heel

in this series has been puck management, with two turnovers leading to goals in Saturday’s 2-1 loss in Game 5.

Cooper said he feels his team has been playing “uptight” at home, where it’s 3-3 in the playoffs after winning an NHL-high 32 games in the regular season.

The Canadiens were in Tampa Bay’s spot in the first round, up 3-0 on Ottawa before winning in Game 6.

“It’s tough,” Montreal defenseman P.K. Subban said. “When you’re up 3-0 and you don’t close it out the first time, you don’t close it out the second time, mentally it can eat away at you.

“I expect their best game in Tampa (on Tuesday). They’re going back home, they’ve played a lot of good hockey there, and I ex-pect (goalie Ben) Bishop

to be a lot better.”Bishop, who was

pulled in the second period of Game 4’s 6-2 loss, bounced back in Game 5, giving up two goals on 29 shots.

The problem was Montreal MVP candidate Carey Price was better, giving up one in 25.

The Lightning left the Bell Centre on Saturday encouraged they got back to playing their game, especially in the third period, when cap-tain Steven Stamkos said everyone “came alive.”

“With the skill that we have, and if we stay disciplined with our structure, we can be the better team,” Stamkos said. “I know we didn’t get the result in the third (period Saturday), but if we stick with the process, we’re going to get it. This one (stinks), but I think we do have something to build on.”

Stamkos said nobody envisioned the Lightning going up 3-0 in this se-ries, and they got a little lucky to do so, winning in double overtime in Game 1 and on a buzzer-beater in Game 3.

Canadiens forward P.A. Parenteau, who scored the winner Saturday, said they had a team meeting shortly after their Game 3 loss, and that set the tone for their comeback. This is the first time Montreal has forced a Game 6 after being down 3-0.

“We really believed in ourselves,” Parenteau said. “Sometimes you’re down 3-0 in a series and you know it’s over. It wasn’t the case this time around. We know we have a chance.”

Said Montreal coach Michel Therrien: “When you have a group of players that believe, you never know what can happen.”

WASHINGTON — Once merely 101 seconds from having their season end, then forced to hold off a furious Game 6 rally, Chris Kreider and New York are one victory away from returning to the Eastern Conference finals.

Kreider scored 40 seconds after the open-ing faceoff and with 0.3 seconds left in the first period Sunday, Rick Nash and Dan Boyle added goals in the third, and the Rangers barely held on to beat Washington 4-3 and force a Game 7 in the second round.

New York led 2-0, then 4-1 with less than 12 1⁄2 minutes left in regula-tion. But Washington’s Evgeny Kuznetsov and Joel Ward put the puck past Henrik Lundqvist less than 3 minutes apart to make it a one-goal

game with nearly half a period to go.

That prompted the Rangers to call timeout and brought much of the red-clad fans to their feet, screaming “Let’s go, Caps!” and then mock-ingly singing Lundqvist’s last name.

But the Swedish goalie was solid the rest of the way, stopping Washington’s last four shots, including Alex Ovechkin on a 1-on-1, and surviving a late Capitals power play to finish with 42 saves. That’s a career high for Lundqvist in a playoff game that didn’t go to overtime.

After two days off, the teams will wrap things up Wednesday at Madison Square Garden — a fitting finish for a matchup in which each of the first six games was decided by one goal.

The winner of Game 7 will face either Tampa Bay or Montreal next. Tampa Bay leads that conference semifinal series 3-2.

This was the 13th consecutive playoff game

involving the Rangers decided by one goal — all 11 this postseason, and two last year — the longest streak in the history of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

They also ended Washington’s five-game home playoff winning streak. The Capitals hadn’t lost consecutive games in more than two months, but they tend to have trouble when it comes to closing out postseason series. And while what’s happened in the past does not guarantee anything in the present, the history of both teams certainly favors New York heading into Game 7.

The Rangers have won nine consecutive home playoff games when fac-ing elimination, a streak that dates to May 1, 2008, and includes Friday night’s 2-1 OT win in Game 5. Lundqvist was the goalie in all nine.

In all previous series that they led 3-1, mean-while, the Capitals have been pushed to Game 7 four times — and they’re 0-4.

CHICAGO — LeBron James hit a jumper from the corner at the buzzer to give the Cleveland Cavaliers an 86-84 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Sunday, tying the Eastern Conference semifinal series at 2-2.

James finished with 25 points to help the Cavaliers win in another wild finish, returning the favor after Chicago took Game 3 on Derrick Rose’s banked 3-pointer at the buzzer.

This time, James got whistled for an offensive foul when he elbowed Mike Dunleavy Jr. That led to a tying layup for Rose with just under 10 seconds left.

But instead of going to overtime, James ended it

with the jumper from the corner over Jimmy Butler.

Game 5 is Tuesday night in Cleveland.

Clippers 128, Rockets 95: In Los Angeles, DeAndre Jordan scored 26 points, surviving Houston’s intentional-foul fest in the first half, and the Clippers beat Houston to take a 3-1 lead and put the Rockets on the brink of elimination in the Western Conference semifinals.

Jordan made 14 of 34 free throws, attempting an NBA playoff-record 28 in the first half, and had 17 rebounds. Blake Griffin added 21 points, J.J. Redick had 18 points and Chris Paul finished with 15 points and 12 assists in the Clippers’ second straight blowout win in the best-of-7 series.

They can advance to the conference finals for the first time in franchise history with a victory in Game 5 Tuesday night in Houston.

James Harden scored 21 points and Trevor Ariza added 18 for the Rockets. Dwight Howard was held to seven points and six rebounds after being in foul trouble most of a game that grinded to a halt early on when Houston started forcing Jordan to the line. Howard fouled out with 9:52 remaining and left the court.

sense, he is the college football version of John Calipari in that he sends a boatload of players to the next level each year and is able to reload the following year. The only difference is that Fisher and his staff actually transform players into NFL draft picks over a span of three or four years; Calipari simply babysits NBA draft picks for three or four months.

Look at Fisher’s last three quarterbacks: Christian Ponder, EJ Manuel and Jameis Winston. All three had varying degrees

of physical ability, but all three were first-round draft picks. One reason is Fisher runs his team like an NFL franchise. He refers to the Seminoles as “an organization” and talks about football “operations” — the same terms NFL coaches use to describe their teams.

“My theory is this,” Fisher told me earlier this week. “If a young man wants to be a business major, he takes business classes. If he wants to be an education major, he takes education classes. If he wants to be a criminology major, he takes a criminology classes. A lot of guys that get to our level, they want to get an education and they also want to play in

the NFL. It’s our job to present what it’s going to be like (in the NFL) and put them in the best possible position to succeed with offensive schemes, defen-sive schemes. how we practice, how we think, how we work in the offseason.”

While many other college coaches have gone to the no-huddle, spread offense with the quarterback taking snaps almost exclusively in the shotgun, Fisher runs more conventional pro-style schemes. His quarterbacks know how to read defenses and set protections. His receivers know how to alter their routes based on defensive coverages. His offensive linemen make

their own calls at the line of scrimmage. His defenses have the same zone-blitz packages that NFL teams run.

Fisher’s not the only one who runs his program this way, he just does it better than most. Ol’ Jimbo may be a West Virginia country boy, but he runs his program like a NASA engineer. Florida State is as sophisticated and organized as any NFL franchise. I’ve written it before and I’ll reiterate it here: When Fisher took over for the great Bobby Bowden, he turned a lagging program into one of the most mod-ernized football laboratories in America. He hired sports psychologists, nutritionists

and kinesiologists and imple-mented the latest GPS tracking technology during training drills to keep track of a player’s fatigue level and other measur-ables during practice.

“In a four-year term, they (FSU) have put together one of the best prescription models of impact (GPS) data across all sports,” sports scientist Gary McCoy told the Sentinel’s Brendan Sonnone a few months ago. “I’ll walk into NFL clubs and they’ll ask who’s doing it better than anybody. I say, ‘Florida State University.’ “

Mr. McCoy, don’t you mean FSU?

Football Seasoning Unprecedented.

But Rodriguez’s success wasn’t without controversy.

With one out in the fifth, Rodriguez threw an inside curveball to Joey Butler, who tried to check his swing. Umpire Mike Estabrook called it a strike, prompting displeased reactions from the Rays’ dugout.

Estabrook gave hitting coach Derek Shelton the first ejection of Shelton’s 11-year coaching career. Manager Kevin Cash dis-agreed with the call and the overall strike zone. He made that apparent, as he was thrown out for the second time this season and added some flair by kicking dirt at the plate before leaving the field.

“It’s one umpire out there for both sides,” Cash said. “That’s something we have to factor in.”

Rays starter Jake Odorizzi did, striking out seven and working into the seventh despite not feeling well as he recovers from flu-like symptoms. The only run he allowed came when slugger Adrian Beltre knocked a 2-and-0 cutter over the

center-field wall.Odorizzi kept the

Rays close until rookie Tim Beckham ended Rodriguez’s perfect game bid — and his own 0-for-17 skid — with a single to left in the sixth. Brandon Guyer tied the score at 1 three batters later with an RBI single.

The Rays could have had more, but Evan Longoria lined into an in-ning-ending double play with the bases loaded.

Texas capitalized in the eighth against normally steady reliever Kevin Jepsen. He nibbled too much at the plate, throwing balls on 14 of his 23 pitches.

“The ball kept wanting to go off the corner,” Jepsen said.

Jepsen walked the first two batters before Beltre singled to right to give Texas the lead.

The Rays had a chance to tie in the ninth and earn more than a split of the four-game series. Forsythe singled to right and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Then Loney blooped his pinch-hit single to center. Forsythe paused.

“In that situation, I’m kicking myself that I didn’t get a better jump,”

Forsythe said. “At the same time, I wanted to make sure it was down and kept the inning alive.”

RAYSFROM PAGE 1

NEW YORK — Michael Pineda struck out a career-high 16 in seven dominant innings Sunday, and Carlos Beltran hit his first homer of the season, leading the New York Yankees to a 6-2 victory against Baltimore.

Throwing nice and easy with pink sleeves peeking out from under his pin-striped jersey on Mother’s Day, Pineda overpowered an Orioles team that went bust in its week in the Big Apple. Baltimore lost three of four in the Bronx after being swept in two games by the Mets in Queens.

Pineda (5-0) matched David Cone and David Wells for the second-most strikeouts in a game by a Yankees pitcher. Ron Guidry had 18 in 1978.

The 16 strikeouts were the most by the Orioles against one pitcher in a nine-inning game, according to STATS. Baltimore struck out against 18 times overall, a club record for a nine-in-ning game.

J.J. Hardy, who homered, was the only Baltimore player who did not fan against Pineda.

Red Sox 6, Blue Jays 3: In Toronto, Mike Napoli hit a three-run homer, Pablo Sandoval added a two-run shot, and Boston avoided a three-game sweep. Clay Buchholz (2-4) allowed three runs in 6 1/3 innings for his first victory in six starts. The last-place Red Sox won for just the second time in nine games.

Giants 3, Marlins 2: Matt Duffy singled in Gregor Blanco with two outs in the ninth inning to cap a two-run rally off closer Steve Cishek and lift host San Francisco. The Giants had been quiet offensively most of the game until breaking out against Cishek (1-2), who had not allowed an earned run in 13 previous appearances against the Giants. Duffy, who was hitless in his previous four at-bats, followed with the first game-ending hit of his career.

Indians 8, Twins 2: Danny Salazar retired 21 consecutive batters after allowing a home run to Brian Dozier to start the game to power

host Cleveland. Lonnie Chisenhall hit a three-run homer and Salazar (4-1) matched his career high with 11 strikeouts, including six in a row. He was removed after throwing 102 pitches in seven innings.

White Sox 4, Reds 3: Gordon Beckham hit a game-winning single against Aroldis Chapman (1-1) in the ninth for host Chicago. It was the first earned run Chapman has allowed this season in 12 2/3 innings. Chapman (1-1) got the first two outs of the inning, then gave up back-to-back singles to Avisal Garcia and Alexei Ramirez. They advanced to second and third on a wild pitch.

Brewers 3, Cubs 2 (11): Martin Maldonado singled over the Cubs’ drawn-in outfield with one out in the 11th inning, lifting host Milwaukee. Ryan Braun doubled off Jason Motte (1-1) to begin the 11th. Two intentional walks loaded the bases, and Maldonado’s deep drive sailed over right fielder Jorge Soler. Maldonado also hit a solo homer in the seventh.

Diamondbacks 2, Padres 1: In Phoenix, Aaron Hill and A.J. Pollock homered to back five pitchers for Arizona. Reliever J.C. Ramirez, just called up from Triple-A Reno, earned his first career win, allowing a run and four hits while striking out three in 2 2/3 innings.

Mariners 4, Athletics 3: In Seattle, Felix Hernandez (6-0) became the fourth-youngest player to reach 2,000 career strikeouts while giving up two runs over seven innings to lead Seattle. Hernandez, at 29 years, 32 days old, is behind only Bert Blyleven, Sam McDowell and Walter Johnson, who were all 28 when they reached 2,000 strikeouts. Strikeout No. 2000 for Hernandez was Sam Fuld in the fifth.

Angels 3, Astros 1: In Anaheim, Calif., Garrett Richards took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and the Los Angeles Angels scored all their runs in the fifth. Richards (3-1) walked his first batter of the day, then retired

15 in a row before walking rookie Preston Tucker to open the sixth. The right-hander walked his first two in the seventh before striking out Colby Rasmus, but Jason Castro lined a clean single to left field on a 2-2 pitch to break up the no-hit bid.

Mets 7, Phillies 4: In Philadelphia, Bartolo Colon (6-1) became the first pitcher in the majors with six wins, and Curtis Granderson hit a two-run homer to lead New York. Colon, who turns 42 this month, gave up four runs and eight hits with six strikeouts and no walks in six-plus innings. He extended his streak without a walk to 40 1/3 innings.

Nationals 5 Braves 4: In Washington, Bryce Harper doubled, singled and drove in another run — but didn’t homer — as Washington completed a three-game sweep. Harper had hit six home runs in his previous three games. He doubled home a run, giving him 13 RBIs in four games. Wilson Ramos hit a tiebreaking double to cap a two-run rally in the eighth inning.

Pirates 4, Reds 3: In Pittsburgh, Jung Ho Kang went 2 for 4 with a home run and two RBIs for Pittsburgh. With the game tied 3-3, Kang hit a go-ahead RBI single in the seventh inning. Kang hit his second home run of the season in the first inning, a shot to left field off a 0-2 fastball left over the middle of the plate from St. Louis left-hander Tyler Lyons.

Dodgers 9, Rockies 5: In Denver, Los Angeles used Justin Turner’s tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning to beat Colorado for the eighth consecutive time. Turner’s two-run homer highlighted a four-run burst in the eighth. Adrian Gonzalez hit two doubles and drove in four runs as the Dodgers extended their winning streak over Colorado dating to last season. Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw failed in his fourth bid for his 100th regular-season win. He gave up five runs in 52/3 innings.

Alan Bossart, visiting clubhouse manager for the Colorado Rockies, shovels snow in the outfield in Coors Field after parts of Denver received up to 5 inches overnight. The stadium was cleared in time for the Rockies and Dodgers to play Sunday.

ST. PETERSBURG — Jake Odorizzi wasn’t sure what to expect from himself Sunday.

He was still recovering from flulike symptoms, but his results (one earned run, seven strike-outs in 6 2⁄3 innings) were strong.

“Other than the look on his face and a couple mound visits, you really couldn’t tell he was under the weather,” manager Kevin Cash said. “That’s a credit to him and the way he commands the baseball.”

Odorizzi is one of several Rays who have battled recent illnesses. He said his plan Sunday against the Rangers was to pitch to contact and get as many outs as quickly as possible. His defense helped him, including a diving stop by second baseman Tim Beckham.

The home run Odorizzi allowed to Adrian Beltre snapped his career-long streak of 44 2⁄3 innings without allowing one. It was the first he allowed this year. He has allowed fewer than two runs in five of his seven starts.

“We’ve always talked about the next guy has to step up,” Odorizzi said. “Now with the unfortu-nate situation we have going on here, it’s more true than ever.”

Drew Smyly is sched-uled to have an MRI exam today on his throwing shoulder. No update was available Sunday, but a reported torn labrum could force him into season-ending surgery.

Alex Colome, who starts tonight, said he will not try to put any more pressure on himself or change his approach because of the absences of Smyly and Alex Cobb, who is scheduled to have Tommy John surgery this week.

“We can do a great job, but they are important to the team,” Colome said. “Cobb is like the face (of the franchise), and Smyly’s a great pitcher, too. We need them.”

More on Colome: Colome enters tonight’s start having not issued a walk in his two previous — the first time he has had back-to-back starts without a walk in his career.

Colome walked 10 over his five games (three starts) last season and averaged 4.3 walks per nine innings in his career entering this season.

Medical matters: Shortstop Nick Franklin (left oblique strain) resumed his rehab assignment for Triple-A Durham. He was 0-for-3 with two strikeouts at Buffalo. … Jake McGee (offseason elbow surgery) is expected to make his fifth rehab appearance for Durham today.

Minor matters: Enny Romero allowed three hits and one walk in five scoreless innings for Durham. He also had four strikeouts in his first Triple-A start of the season, after a back injury derailed his spring.

Miscellany: Evan Longoria was back at third base after two days as DH. He was sidelined Thursday because of a flulike illness. … Kevin Jepsen’s three walks tied a career high. … The series against the Yankees that starts tonight will be New York’s second visit of the season. The Yankees, who swept the previous series, will not return to Tropicana Field until September.

Ailing Odorizzi goes farther than expected

BALTIMORE — Looting, rioting and violence has left Baltimore rattled and in a state of repair. Officials hope a big sports week has a healing effect on the beleaguered city.

Civil unrest remains an issue in Baltimore after two weeks of tension between residents and police. The return of the Orioles for an extended period and the running of the Preakness could

help ease matters.The Orioles expect to

play before enthusiastic crowds throughout the week, and track officials say good weather could lead to record attendance numbers at Pimlico Race Course.

“We certainly recog-nize the role that we play in the community, and hope we would always be seen as a unifying experience,” said Greg Bader, vice president of marketing and commu-nications for the Orioles.

The defending

American League East champions begin a nine-game homestand at Camden Yards today. That also marks the start of Preakness Week, the annual buildup at Pimlico to the middle jewel of the Triple Crown.

Baltimore was overrun by violence and destruc-tion April 27 after the funeral of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who died of spinal cord injuries while in the cus-tody of Baltimore police. The Orioles postponed two home games and, in an unprecedented move, played a third without allowing fans to enter. Then they shed three

home games against the Rays on May 1-3 to St. Petersburg, Florida.

“It’s an unfortunate situation, but we’re trying to make the best of it,” Orioles first baseman Chris Davis said during a series at Yankee Stadium, the team’s last stop before returning home.

Monday’s game against Toronto will be the Orioles’ first in front of their fans since April 26. Much has changed in Baltimore while they were on the road.

“The thing that would worry me a little bit is the Preakness will be the showcase event for Baltimore, so let’s hope

(violent protesters) don’t use that as an avenue to further their causes — whatever they may be,” Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas said.

Capt. J. Eric Kowalczyk, a Baltimore Police Department spokesman, said he was not aware of any planned demonstra-tions near Pimlico or at Camden Yards meant to keep Gray’s death in the public eye.

The Rev. Jamal Bryant has a different take on the situation. A leader of the protests that followed Gray’s arrest, Bryant said visitors will likely encounter peaceful demonstrations.

“Don’t be afraid of the protesters, be afraid of the police,” he asserted. “The police have more instances of excessive force against citizens than the protesters do.”

Security is of para-mount importance for the Preakness.

“We’re paying attention to it,” said Salvatore Sinatra, general manager of the Maryland Jockey Club. “We’ve talked with our help and the police. We’re going to have the armed services here, Homeland Security. We’re going to make sure our fans are safe. I don’t an-ticipate any problems.”

Will O’s, Preakness help soothe tension?

It was exactly what the children’s TV network wanted out of its part-nership with NASCAR — and just what NASCAR wanted out of the SpongeBob SquarePants 400.

“You know, you’re always looking for a younger demographic,” Sprint Cup star Clint Bowyer said, “and what better way to attract that younger demographic? I can’t imagine any young-er kid not wanting to come to the SpongeBob SquarePants race.”

NASCAR has been trying to reach younger demographics for years, particularly as stars such as Gordon close in on retirement. The fan base that brought about the racing boom of the 1990s and early 2000s has started to age, and filling that void has become a priority.

That’s why a few years ago NASCAR announced an industry action plan designed to attract younger and more diverse fans. It began with a rebuffed website and mobile apps, inviting more mainstream celebrities to races, and providing concerts and other ancil-lary entertainment.

That was just the start of the outreach, though.

NASCAR has opened its garages to children accompanied by parents on race days, allowing them to get closer to the cars and drivers. It lowered age limits on some regional compe-titions, giving up-and-coming drivers a chance to compete earlier. And it embraced social media, fantasy racing

and online simulators such as iRacing that are popular with younger demographics.

The push toward a younger demographic in some ways mirrors the push that NASCAR made toward women in the 1980s and ’90s, which ultimately succeeded in growing the brand.

“This is really cool to engage the youth and bring in a new fan to NASCAR, and that is an important aspect for all of us, for all our partners moving forward in the sport,” said Michael McDowell, whose No. 95 car had Larry the Lobster from the SpongeBob show painted on his car.

A recent Turnkey Sports poll found that only about 10 percent of NASCAR fans these days are in the coveted 18-to-24 marketing demo-graphic. While that may be a sobering number, polls also found that 37 percent of NASCAR fans have children under age 18.

In other words, there are plenty of potential fans waiting to get hooked.

“The SpongeBob SquarePants 400 gives Nickelodeon the op-portunity to expand its relationship with NASCAR, while working with a best-in-class track to give fans a unique, en-gaging and high-quality race experience that the whole family can enjoy,” said Pam Kaufman, the chief marketing officer for Nickelodeon Group who spearheaded the affiliation with NASCAR.

“Nickelodeon has embarked on some great initiatives with NASCAR over the last 10 years,” Kaufman said, “sponsor-ing and participating in marquee racing events

that have resonated with motorsports fans across the country.”

This may be an op-portune time to attract younger fans, too.

There is a new set of drivers poised to take over the leadership of the sport. Eighteen-year-old Erik Jones made his first Sprint Cup start on Saturday night, and Ty Dillon, Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott are at an age that resonates with a younger fan base.

Then there are the current Sprint Cup stars with children of their own. Images of Greg Biffle toting daughter Emma around the garage area, or Matt Kenseth celebrating with daughters Kaylin and Grace in victory lane, get beamed by television into living rooms every race weekend.

“My daughter is 31⁄2 and she loves watching SpongeBob, and she asked before I left if I could bring him back with me,” Biffle said. “It’s kind of funny how the kids go in cycles. There are a lot of young kids and a lot of new dads in the garage right.”

The sponsorship brought out the child in those dads, too. Many were caught taking self-ies with the SpongeBob character traipsing through the garage area Saturday night.

“My 6-year old son thinks I am the coolest dad ever because I got to drive the Ninja Turtle car and now I get to drive the Larry Lobster car,” McDowell said, wearing a big grin. “I am definite-ly winning cool points with my kids.”

Rosberg ends

droughtBy The AssociATed Press

GRANOLLERS, Spain — Nico Rosberg finally beat Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton this sea-son, winning the Spanish Grand Prix from pole position to gain ground on the championship leader.

Hamilton finished second and Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel was third.

The morale-boosting win was Rosberg’s ninth and his first since the Brazilian GP — the penul-timate race of last season — which the German also won from pole.

Hamilton has won three of five races this season. Vettel won the Malaysian GP in March.

Meanwhile, McLaren’s misery continued as two-time F1 champion Fernando Alonso retired just short of halfway with faulty brakes — on the same track where he last won a race two years ago with Ferrari.

Rickie Fowler shot a final-round 67 to force a playoff Sunday.

— Fowler still had to face Sergio Garcia and Kevin Kisner, who produced big shots of their own.

For the first time, The Players went to a three-hole aggregate playoff starting on the par-5 16th, where earlier Fowler hit a 3-wood into the breeze to 30 inches for an eagle that made this moment possible.

All parred the 16th.Kisner rolled in a

breaking 10-foot birdie putt on the island-green 17th to keep pace with Fowler, who hit his tee shot to 6 feet and con-verted the birdie. Garcia, who in regulation made a 45-foot birdie to give him new life, failed to repeat the putt from about the same range in the playoff. All three players made par on the final hole, which eliminated Garcia.

Fowler and Kisner, who closed with a 69 and lost for the second time in a month in a playoff, headed back to the 17th hole for the third time. The great shots kept coming. Kisner barely cleared the mound and the ball settled 12 feet away. Fowler answered by taking on the right side of the green and sticking it just inside 5 feet.

Kisner finally missed.It was the second time

in a month that Kisner, winless in 102 starts, lost in a playoff despite making clutch putts.

“Golf is a hard and cruel game,” Kisner said. “But hats off. I mean, shoot, these guys are good, I’m telling you. Don’t give up on anybody.”

Fowler never seemed to miss over the final two hours, and he calmly clutched his fist to cele-brate his first PGA Tour victory in three years.

“I’ve been waiting a long time for this,” Fowler

said. “Back in the winner’s circle.”

Garcia, who had a two-shot lead heading to the back nine, closed with a 68. He had a 20-foot birdie putt to win in regulation that missed badly to the right. And he faced a crowd that was increasingly hostile to the Spaniard, perhaps remembering the tiff he had with Tiger Woods two years ago.

His caddie was asking for security when he made the turn. In the three-hole playoff, a small group of fans yelled, “USA!” as he took the putter back.

It marred what was otherwise sheer brilliance, a most unforgettable final hour in a tournament that has a history of them.

For Fowler, the timing couldn’t have been better.

One of the questions in SI Golf’s annual player survey — players do not give their names — was to pick the most overrated player on the PGA Tour. Fowler and Ian Poulter shared first place at 24 percent. Fowler has never faced this level of criticism. He is a favorite among fans and most players for his considerate behavior.

He tried to play it down, though he said on more than one occasion this week that it would motivate him.

Fowler was five shots behind Garcia when he “hit the button.” It was more like hitting warp speed.

A 9-iron to 12 feet for birdie on the par-3 13th. A 15-foot birdie on the 15th. The bold shot over the edge of the water to tap-in range for eagle. The wedge over the corner of the island to 6 feet for birdie. And then he blasted a tee shot 331 yards and made a 15-foot birdie on the 18th hole to be the first player to reach 12-under 276.
