The county’s bid of $616,000 to buy the Pi-rate’s Cove property off Ozello Trail has been rejected.

The county had re-ceived two appraisals: one for $616,000 and an-other for $700,000.

“The seller has decided to decline it,” local Real-tor Steve Varnadoe ad-vised the board. “The price and undefined

That comes on the heels of county staff selecting Florida-based Tocoi

It’s crucial to know how the rains have fallen.

Too much could be a forecast for flash flooding, and too little could be a preface for a drought.

“It’s where all our water comes from in Florida,” Southwest Flor-ida Water Management District Hy-drologic Data Field Supervisor Everett Eldridge said. “Without rainfall, our lakes would dry up, our aquifers would dry up, our

Improved devices will be able to wirelessly transmit data in near real-time

See GAUGES/Page A11

Oliver said the state’s Competitive Consultants Negotiation Act (CCNA) re-quires the scope of work and cost to be negotiated with the highest ranked firm.

County commissioners are expected to review the decision and consider is-suing the design contract to Tocoi at a December or January board meeting.

The county has released the following timeline:

� March 2022: Financ-ing secured.

� June/July 2022: De-sign complete.

� November/December 2022: Construction con-tract awarded.

� Late winter/spring 2024: Construction on the shelter completed.

The county has received $2.5 million in donations to date, according to county data.

That includes $236,400 from the Citrus County Chronicle’s gofundme.com campaign. It also includes $1.5 million in prior year donations, pledged reve-nue and eligible impact fees available for the shel-ter. Added to that is $681,000 from Citrus County residents this year, said County Commissioner Ruthie Schlabach.

And on Tuesday, two do-nors stepped up with checks totaling more than half a million dollars.

“I had no idea that today,

on my one-year anniver-sary as a county commis-sioner, a half million dollars from two donors would come in for a new shelter I have fought so hard for,” Schlabach said.

“I really felt the Lord was giving me a gift of let-ting me know we’re all on the right track with this,” she added.

All funds are deposited into an animal services ac-count dedicated to fund-ing a new shelter.

County commissioners in May directed staff to work within a budget of $8 mil-lion to $9 million for an ani-mal shelter, with maximum borrowing of $7.5 million.

Conditions at the existing shelter are cramped and getting worse due to an in-creasing number of animals taken in from animal cru-elty cases. Staffers and vol-unteers are forced to work in pitiful conditions as they struggle to care for and adopt out dogs and cats.

to see this property pre-served as a public park — those are the folks we’re going to need to step up and help out.”

Kinnard said he be-lieves the seller was turned off by the lack of full support from com-missioners and the complexities in dealing with a governmental entity.

“They would like a more straightforward ap-proach,” Kinnard said.

Commissioner Ron Kitchen Jr., at the board’s October meeting, called this another example of “government mission creep” — overextending the county’s reach and taking on too many proj-ects at one time. There are more important pri-orities, he said, including repaving of roads.

Besides, he said, the county doesn’t need any more parks.

Commissioner Scott Carnahan also opposes the plan to purchase the site.

Pirate’s Cove is a pris-tine 3.6-acre site with

750 feet of water frontage and abuts an existing park. The property has sat idle since the restau-rant/motel housed on it was destroyed by the no-name storm in 1993 and later demolished in 2010.

Kinnard remains hopeful a deal can be made.

“I think there’s a way to make this work if we can put the pieces together,” he said.

Special to the Chronicle

At the Florida Chamber an-nual meeting and Future of Florida Forum on October 27, Citrus County Commissioner Holly Davis was presented with the 2021 Chair’s Award.

The recognition was shared with the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce’s Josh Wooten and Ardath Prendergast for their work on the Prosperity Citrus initiative.

Prosperity Citrus is a local un-dertaking of the Florida Pros-perity Project. The project is a Florida Chamber-led approach

to cut childhood poverty in half — a key objective in the Florida equality of opportunity initia-tive and essential for achieving the Florida 2030 blueprint goals.

Davis is the prosperity initia-tive leader for Prosperity Cit-rus. In May 2021, she was invited to speak about Citrus County’s progress at the Flor-ida Chamber’s Prosperity and Economic Opportunity Solu-tion Summit.

“Prosperity Citrus has truly been a county-wide team effort since it began this past spring,” Davis said. “Leaders from non-profits, the business

community and county govern-ment pulled together to make quick progress on developing a plan to connect volunteer

coaches with Citrus County resi-dents living in poverty.”

“These individuals want to succeed but may not know how

to put the pieces together. We expect to be helping our first participants within roughly one year. It is that speed — and the immense community spirit that drove it — that impressed the Florida Chamber with Citrus County,” Davis added.

The Florida Chamber Chair’s Award recognizes individuals and organizations that have played an important role in fur-thering the future of Florida and helping the Florida Cham-ber secure Florida’s future.

Learn history of Withlacoochee

TrailA free local author pre-

sentation with Walter J. Moore will take place at 4 p.m. Nov. 18 at the His-toric Hernando School audi-torium, 2415 N. Florida Ave.

Moore was born in 1939 and after service in the U.S. Navy and graduation from Michigan State University, he spent a 30-year career in private industry. His writ-ing occupation started in 2001 with two novels based in late 20th century Russia. Those novels were followed by 10 “Bicycle Your France” guidebooks.

In 2016, he wrote, crafted and published “Withla-coochee Trail Silver Edition Portrait.” The portrait dis-cusses the history of human presence near the trail that started 10,000 years ago with the initial settlements some 2,500 years ago.

Seminole Indian Wars, Fort Cooper, the Civil War, phosphate mining, logging, railroad development, his-toric cemeteries and seven towns have been re-searched and documented. This portrait includes 349 photographs from the past 13 years.

For more information, call 352-726-8080.

Attend a free bird walk on Pepper

Creek TrailEllie Schiller Homosassa

Springs Wildlife State Park, in cooperation with Citrus County Audubon Society, will host a free bird walk on Pepper Creek Trail. Partici-pants should meet at 7:45 a.m. Nov. 20 at the park’s visitor center, 4150 S. Sun-coast Blvd. in Homosassa.

An experienced birder from Citrus County Audu-bon will lead the walk. This fully accessible trail is one of 19 birding trails in Citrus County that are part of the west section of the Great Florida Birding Trail.

If you have binoculars and a field guide bring them, but they are not re-quired. Pepper Creek Trail is approximately 3/4 mile in length and follows along the park’s tram road, connect-ing the visitor center on U.S. 19 and the west en-trance on Fishbowl Drive. Participants can either walk back down the trail or wait and take the tram after the park opens.

For more information, call 352-628-5343.

With rising prices at the grocery store and added ex-penses for the holiday sea-son, the Community Food Bank (CFB) is sponsoring a Holiday Food Drive to help ensure no one goes hungry this holiday season.

Together with radio sta-tions Fox 96.7/Nature Coast Country/Citrus 95.3 as co-sponsors, the CFB is ask-ing those who can to donate new, unopened items in-cluding: canned foods, dry pasta, rice, beans, boxes of cereal, peanut butter and jellies. Also, pet food, per-sonal hygiene products and cleaning products.

Donated items can be

dropped off at numerous locations throughout the area until Monday, Dec. 20.

Drop-off sites:� Walgreens Sugarmill

Woods, 9427 S. Suncoast Blvd., Homosassa.

� Walgreens Grover Cleveland, 4029 S. Sun-coast Blvd., Homosassa.

� Edward Jones — Ed Gruber, 9469 S. Suncoast Blvd., Homosassa.

� Habitat Re-Store, 3703 E. Gulf-to-Lake Highway, Inverness.

� Fox/Citrus/Nature Coast Country Studios, 964 S. Crys-tal Glen Drive, Lecanto.

Additional drop-off lo-cations will be posted on the CFB website as they become available.

“The holidays are espe-cially difficult for those affected by hunger,” said Barbara Sprague, CFB ex-ecutive director. “No one should go without a holi-day meal. Our goal is to ensure everyone enjoys a holiday meal to celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas/Hanukkah, and to start off the new year.”

The 50-plus agencies served by the CFB provide meals to approximately 70,000 people each month. One meal equates to one pound of food. The CFB needs to collect or pur-chase through monetary dona-tions at least 210,000 pounds of food for holiday meals.

“It’s a lofty goal, but we live in a community of generous individuals and businesses who always step up to the plate to help their neighbors in need,” Sprague said. “Picking up a few extra food items each time you go to the store can

make a huge impact and put smiles on the faces of those who otherwise would

not be able to enjoy a holiday meal.”

The county’s largest an-nual happy hour will ben-efit the 15,000 students and 2,200 employees of the Citrus County School District.

This year’s Foundation Fest, hosted by the Citrus County Education Foun-dation (CCEF), will take place from 6 to 10 p.m. Nov. 19 at the College of Central Florida, 3800 S. Lecanto Highway.

CCEF executive direc-tor Shaunda Burdette said the foundation is taking a different ap-proach to this year’s event. On-site, the

foundation will hand out $84,000 in mini grants to teachers who applied.

“Our goal is to fill that back up,” she said.

To kick-start that goal, CCEF has enlisted the help of 16 celebrity bar-tenders from around the county, who will compete for the most tips. All tips will benefit the CCEF.

Celebrity teams from 6 to 8 p.m. are:

� Ted King, Rick Rice, Steve Connor and Joshua Langston-White.

� Gene McGee, Ruthie Schlabach and Holly Davis.

� Dr. Rushi Patel, Dr. Edgar Pichardo, Rainier Pichardo and Dr. William Welton.

Celebrity teams from 8 to 10 p.m. are:

� Katie Myers and Team Citrus Memorial Hospital.

� Jen Grow and JJ Grow.� Tracy Alm and Bill

Coyle.“If you can’t make it out,

you can still donate,” Bur-dette said. Send a text to 41444, type the team name you wish to donate to and click the link in the reply. Team names are Ted1, McGee, Rushi, Katie1, Grow1 and Tracy1.

If you get hungry while enjoying live music by TJ Brown, there will be flat-breads, cheese boards and a nacho bar available. A portion of food proceeds will also be donated to the CCEF.

Bid on your favorite items between 6 and 9 p.m. at the silent auction. This year’s goodies include hunting and golf packages, weekend getaways, liquor and wine baskets, private wine tasting, Tampa Bay Rays tickets, theme park tickets and much more.

“It’s an amazing silent auction to choose from,” Burdette said.

In addition, there will be a “Best Basket” contest. Each district school will donate a basket and the school with the most funds generated gets to keep the cash.

In keeping with the theme of education, there will also be a “Perfect At-tendance” award. Event

participants can select their favorite school, and the one with the most “at-tendees” wins $1,000 and a trophy.

The entrance is $5 and free for Citrus County School District teachers and staff.

“It’s an incredible eve-ning of bringing the com-munity together to celebrate the success of the first semester coming to an end,” Burdette said.

ENTERTAINMENTTimes Square is

back open on New Year’s Eve —

with vax proofNEW YORK — Crowds will

once again fill New York’s Times Sq uare this New Year’s Eve, with proof of COV ID-19 vaccina-tion req uired for revelers who want to watch the ball drop in person, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Tuesday.

“ Yes, we are proud to an-nounce that Times Sq uare, won-derful celebration in Times Sq uare, the ball drop, every-thing, coming back full strength the way we love it,” de Blasio said at a virtual news briefing. “ Hundreds of thousands of peo-ple there to celebrate. W e can fi-nally get back together again. It’s going to be amazing.”

Tom H arris, the president of the Times Sq uare Alliance, said all spectators aged 5 and over will be asked to show proof of full vaccination. People who can’t be vaccinated because of a disability will have to provide proof of a negative COV ID-19 test, he said.

The New Year’s Eve celebra-tion, perhaps the city’s most iconic public gathering, was a socially distant affair during the height of the pandemic last year.

There were no packed crowds of giddy revelers, jammed to-gether cheek-by-jowl. Instead there were mostly empty streets as officials told people to stay home and watch the ball drop on television. Entertainers including J ennifer Lopez performed be-hind police barricades to small groups made up of essential workers.

W ith the advent of vaccines, the city’s public celebrations have been on the upswing in

2021. The Macy’s Fourth of July fireworks once again welcomed crowds to gather and watch as fireworks lit up the sky, and some parades have returned to city streets.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Pa-rade will also be returning to

pre-COV ID form, with giant bal-loons guided by volunteer han-dlers making their way through the event’s Manhattan parade route, instead of the one-block stretch they were kept to last year.

ObituariesBertha

Podwys, 98Bertha U. Siegl-Podwys

was just sixteen days short of her 99th birthday when she passed away peacefully early evening Friday November 12th, 2021, in the care of Hos-pice with her fam-ily by her side.

Born on N o v e m -ber 28th, 1 9 2 2 , raised on her fami-ly’s farm in Berwick Pennsylvania as the twelfth of thirteen children by Paul and Ber-tha Urban. As a young child, Bertha enjoyed playing outdoor sports with all her older broth-ers. So, it’s no surprise that she would pursue a career which would do something involving planes. Her career started with Grumman Aerospace as a part as-sembly worker, and later with Northrup Grumman Aerospace as a book-keeper. While working with Grumman Bertha joined their Bowling and Golf teams and excelled and asked to be on the company’s team of com-petition in both area of sports which would in-volve travelling within the United States and playing against other company teams in which she won several single and team tournaments and accumulated a vast collection of first place awards.

During this time at the brink of the United States entering World War II Bertha met and married Private Godfrey H. Siegl who would later become Spec Tech II as an Inter-preter for the U.S. Army. They married June of 1942 in Brooklyn, New York and upon his return they had four children and moved to Hicksville, Long Island, NY.

Bertha remained be-trothed until his death in April of 1981. Upon her husband’s retirement in 1976, they relocated down to Citrus County Florida,

where they purchased a home at the residence in the town of Inverness. Bertha obtained her GED at the age of 65 and Ber-tha continued to serve her community as a school bus driver and later as a driver of the Handicap school bus for a total of 10 years in the school system.

It was not too long be-fore Bertha met Stanley Podwys a retired Ford Engineer while taking ballroom dance lessons which led to their mar-riage in October of 1987. Together, they shared the same common interest of flying airplanes, enabling her to finally complete her lifelong dream in ob-taining a Pilot license June 23rd 1990, at the age of 68. Over the years, Ber-tha enjoyed life and trav-eling the world over with her new husband. She was a proud member of the 99er’s Club of Women Pilots in the Florida Sun-coast Chapter. She also relished the time she shared with family and friends on outings and functions.

She is preceded in death by both of her first husband Godfrey H. Siegl and her second husband Stanley Podwys. She is survived by her four chil-dren: Joan Rudolph of Floral City, Fl, Godfrey “Fred” Siegl Jr. and wife, Judy Siegl of Paw-Paw, Mi, Jean Holloway of Bev-erly Hills, Fl and Robin Dombroski of Brooks-ville, Fl, seven grandchil-dren Debbie Rudolph of Ocala, Fl, Dawn Libardi of Floral City, Fl and Jes-sica Kubik and Fred Siegl 3rd of Dowagiac, Mi, Jef-frey Holloway of Berwick, Pa, Andrew Dombroski of Brooksville, Fl and Brynn Dombroski of Charlotte, NC and five great Grand-children: Jacqueline Li-bardi of NY, Vincent Libardi of Floral City, FL . Allyssa, Dylan, and Lily of Dowagiac, Mi.

A Celebration of Life Service is scheduled for Saturday, November 20th at 11:00 AM at the Chas. E. Davis Funeral Home.

He enjoyed spend-ing time with his children and grandchildren, watch-ing movies, WWE wres-tling, 49ers football, and in his retired years, playing cards at home with Yvonne while enjoying an occasional martini. Akram lived for his family, espe-cially later in his life, and was known to say, “Happi-ness is being a grandfather.”

Akram is survived by his loving partner of 15 years Yvonne Evans; his ex-wife Maria and their three chil-dren, Sommer (husband Jason), Sami (wife Megan), and Dina (husband Dav-ede); his brothers, Fuad, Oscar, Maurico, and Khalid; many beloved nieces and nephews; and his seven cherished grandchildren, with one on the way.

TALLAHASSEE — Top Florida education officials on Tuesday inched closer to a legal battle with the Biden administration over federal reimbursements for school districts that were dinged financially by the state for imposing student mask mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Florida Education Com-missioner Richard Corcoran received authori-zation from the State Board of Education to sue the U.S. Department of Education for intervening in the state’s punishment of school dis-tricts. Tuesday’s decision by the state board was the lat-est development in a feud with the federal govern-ment that has been brewing since the beginning of the

school year.On Aug. 17, the State

Board of Education voted to withhold money from the school districts in Ala-chua and Broward coun-ties for maintaining student mask require-ments despite a Florida Department of Health emergency rule that sought to prevent such mandates. The penalties were designed to block funding in amounts equal to the monthly salaries of school board members.

The U.S. Department of Education, however, began to offset the state’s penalties by launching a grant program dubbed Project SAFE, or Project to Support America’s Families and Educators. As of this week, nearly $721,000 in federal fund-ing has been awarded to the Alachua and Broward

school districts.“These are, to date, the

only two school districts in the nation that have re-ceived SAFE grants,” said Anastasios Kamoutsas, general counsel for the Florida Department of Education.

On Oct. 7, the state edu-cation board authorized financial penalties against six other school districts and approved a plan to try to thwart the Biden ad-ministration’s grant fund-ing. That plan involved withholding additional amounts of money from districts equal to the fed-eral funding.

The move prompted the

federal education depart-ment to file a cease-and-desist complaint in its Division of Administrative Law Judges.

“We believe Florida’s actions have violated fed-eral law by reducing state funds based on the receipt by districts of federal funds,” the federal depart-ment said in a statement accompanying its Oct. 28 complaint.

But Corcoran asked the state board Tuesday for a green light to “vigorously defend (against) the cease and desist complaint filed by the U.S. DOE” and to “protect our sovereignty” against what he called an

“unlawful” federal grant program.

“The aim of this board’s enforcement is simply to encourage school districts to comply with the law, a value we all want our chil-dren to hold,” Corcoran told the board. “Now, as

you’re aware, during the enforcement process, the Biden administration made its best efforts to both polit-icize these issues and un-dermine the legal authority of this board, and indeed the sovereignty of the state of Florida.”

State, feds could battle over school mask penalties

something Hogan sees himself doing for a long time.

“I think this is burned into me for the most part,” he said.

In between wildfire sea-sons, Hogan is pursuing a career to possibly work at a hospital emergency room. First, he’s planning to clock in hours as an EMT before graduating from nursing school.

“It’s fast-paced,” he said, “and you get to help people.”

A similar selfless mind-set was what helped push Hogan to accept an invite from Andrew Kent to join the fight in the West against the region’s sum-mertime wildfires.

“‘It’s the closest thing to the military,’ was the way he described it,” said Hogan, who had served four years with the Army, stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. “He said, ‘It’s really exciting, and you’re going to have the time of your life.’”

Kent, who was born in England, has been fighting fires for seven years, start-ing in Victoria, Australia. He came stateside roughly five years ago to continue the job, and lives in Inverness.

Kent said Hogan’s build and military background were assets for forestry.

“Luke’s a big guy, a big character,” he said. “I thought he’d be a good fit.”

Hogan left for the Pa-cific Northwest in late June to replace a member of the forestry handcrew with a private firefighting company based in south-ern Oregon.

For privacy reasons, Kent and Hogan would not disclose either the for-estry agency they were with, the names of the fires they fought or specif-ically where they fought them.

Hogan remained with the same crew throughout

the wildfire season, work-ing two-week shifts in be-tween 48 hours of R&R, and sleeping in tents within the wilderness.

Kent at the time was a crew boss trainee. There were three squad bosses overseeing several wild-land firefighters, like Hogan, who were tasked with daily objectives to contain fires. Hogan said he’s in line to be a squad-boss trainee next season.

Forestry handcrews use shovels and other tools to dig in fire lines, which provide a break in the ground ahead of the blaze to keep its flames from spreading.

Wildland firefighters also use chainsaws, axes and drip torches to cut, chop and burn away flam-mable vegetation in the fire’s path to curb its fuel sources.

It’s hard to keep track of how the fire moves through a landscape, and its ever-changing track can quickly shift to surround whatever or whoever is in its way.

Trees weakened by fire can also topple without warning on unaware fire-fighters below.

“It’s among everybody to keep an eye on every guy, and making sure he’s not fatigued,” Hogan said. “The personal safety and wellbeing of everybody else is a major thing be-tween everybody.”

Hogan said there’s one day from the latter part of his first wildfire season he won’t forget.

It began the night be-fore, when a massive wild-fire started making its way down a mountain toward a valley and a tiny town on the other side of a river.

“There’s only 400 people in the town,” Hogan said. “It’s in the middle of abso-lutely nowhere.”

Contingencies were in place in case the fire made a move that evening, but the high humidity and low winds stalled the blaze in the dark.

“It was magical, actu-ally; I’ve never seen a

mountain on fire like that,” Kent said. “We kind of expected it to blow up that night ... It was kind of just sitting there.”

Kent went out the next day, across the river from the fire, to measure weather conditions and gauge how likely future ig-nition would be.

Kent said he was feeling hopeful, but his opinion changed when a crew member said he felt an ember strike his face. Flames as high as 60 feet were throwing small cin-ders over the river.

“I looked down,” Kent said, “and, at that moment, the grass started sparking all around us.”

Several spot fires began to rage, forcing the for-estry crew to retreat back to its safe zone at a farm-stead with the farmer and his workers who refused to evacuate.

“If we weren’t there,” Hogan said, “they would have been gone.”

Hogan understands why someone might want to stay and protect their property against a threat, but risking either their own life or the lives of oth-ers isn’t worth it.

“You’re going to possibly get 20 guys killed instead of having to try and evacu-ate,” he said.

Nonetheless, the wild-land firefighters had a duty to hold the line to protect the residents, their buildings, vehicles and livestock. They were also asked to defend a lone tree planted in the early 1800s.

Hogan and the hand-crew dug in fire-break lines around the tree, and

also used drip torches to burn whatever fuel was in between them and the en-croaching flames, pushing the fire to burn around the farm and town.

“It was a chaotic day,” Hogan said.

Hogan said the crew went through daily de-briefings, but its members rarely discussed the life-threatening scenes they encountered with each other.

“I guess we don’t really talk about it,” he said. “I think everybody copes with it in they’re own dif-ferent way; it brings every-body closer together because tensions rise be-tween 20 guys that sleep in tents and spend together for weeks at a time.”

There are moments to enjoy between the fire-fighting, like appreciating the gratitude of those saved from wildfires,

including a horse that couldn’t stop resting its head on Hogan’s shoulder.

Hogan said the experi-ence and chance to serve beyond the borders of home should be enough for someone to try out as a wildland firefighter.

“It’s very rewarding; ev-erybody appreciates you,” he said. “It feels really good.”

Kent said Hogan was the second Citrus County resi-dent he’s asked to battle fires with him, and he’s looking for more like Hogan to join for future seasons.

“I see a lot of potential in him,” Kent said about Hogan. “You’ve got a lot of good guys out in this county.”

rivers would dry up. That’s where it all starts for us — rain.”

T h r o u g h o u t i t s 16-county region, the water management dis-trict (SWFWMD) monitors 170 solar-powered rainfall-gauge sites, which capture rain levels every hour within a secured data-logger nearby.

“It gives us an idea of how we’re doing — how the outlook is by keeping track of how much rainfall we’re getting all year,” El-dridge said. “Then we can compare that to the aqui-fer levels and usages in the area, and make deci-sions from there.”

S i n c e O c t o b e r, SWFWMD has been outfit-ting its rainfall gauges with Internet Protocol mo-dems, allowing the devices to transmit data wirelessly to the district in near real-time.

“Not immediately,” El-dridge said, “but every hour.”

SWFWMD has also been equipping its rainfall gauges with 100-watt solar panels and larger batter-ies to guarantee power for at least two weeks instead of one, Eldridge said.

There are 41 sites left for SWFWMD to upgrade, and 10 of the district’s 12 gauges in Citrus County have been updated.

Visit swfwmd.state.fl.us/resources/data-maps/ daily-hydrologic-data to see SWFWMD’s latest rainfall figures.

Data like this is invalu-able for SWFWMD to bet-ter predict and respond to flooding events.

“Upgrading our rain gauges to near real-time

will allow staff to more ac-curately collect high water information that is crucial for verifying these flood models,” SWFWMD’s Chief Professional Engi-neer Dr. Mark Fulkerson said. “It also allows staff to know what areas have been impacted sooner which improves our com-munication with local offi-cials and citizens.”

To collect data from an older-model gauge, a SWFWMD technician had to visit it each month to upload its recordings onto a laptop.

S o m e t i m e s , a rainfall-gauge site might lose power in between the monthly data collections, erasing the data it stored since.

Eldridge said the near real-time uploading helps prevent data collections from being interrupted, and the programming in-forms SWFWMD about a malfunctioning gauge a lot faster.

“It’s very rare, but the sites don’t go down,” he said, “but it does happen, and this lets us catch it right away.”

SWFWMD technicians still go out each month to check on the site’s instru-ments, regardless if it’s up-graded. They especially make sure the rain gauge itself isn’t blocked with any debris or bird droppings.

“They perch up there and clog up the rain gauge,” Eldridge said.

There are other

safeguards in place to catch errors in data, like notifica-tions to SWFWMD when sites haven’t recorded rain-fall in 10 days during an ob-vious storm, and an outside group also double checks the numbers.

Some of SWFWMD’s rainfall gauges are at-tached to well-monitoring system, which gives the district information about water elevations.

Eldridge said SWFWMD is looking at where else it can install more rainfall gauges to help cover its gaps.

“We’re where we want to be with the technology,” he said, “but we’re trying to expand the network.”

TALLAHASSEE — Flor-ida Republicans shot down efforts Tuesday to change legislation that would blunt vaccine man-dates in businesses, ad-vancing Gov. Ron DeSantis’ agenda against White House coronavirus rules.

Lawmakers in the GOP-controlled state-house moved the mea-sures forward over several amendments and objec-tions from Democrats who argued that the proposals endanger people. Repub-licans have maintained that the bills are neces-sary to ensure that people are not fired over vaccinations.

DeSantis, a Republican, called on lawmakers to pass the bills amid in-creased tension and legal battles with the adminis-tration of President Joe Biden over White House vaccine mandates. The governor has gained na-tional prominence in the Republican party over his opposition to virus restric-tions and has alleged that the federal government is overstepping its authority with its nationwide virus rules.

“My goal bottom line on this special session is, no Floridian should be losing their job over COVID shots,” DeSantis said at a news conference.

The legislation would, among other things, bar

private businesses from having coronavirus vac-cine mandates unless they allow exemptions for med-ical reasons, religious be-liefs, proof of immunity based on a prior COVID-19 infection, regular testing and an agreement to wear protective gear. The pro-posals would also let par-ents sue schools over mask requirements and stop schools and governments from having vaccine mandates.

Democrats have repeat-edly said the legislation amounts to political the-ater intended to boost the

governor’s national profile.

Republicans are also pushing legislation for Florida to begin consider-ing a withdrawal from the federal Occupational Safety and Health Adminis-tration, which drafted White House vaccine re-quirements for businesses with more than 100 employ-ees. Another measure

would block the public re-lease of records regarding state investigations of vac-cine policies in businesses.

The bills are expected to win final passage this week.

Separately, Florida has sued the White House over rules requiring coro-navirus vaccines for fed-eral contractors and private businesses.

Deputies fatally shoot man during

confrontation OCALA — Deputies in

north Florida fatally shot a man after he refused to drop his weapon during a confron-tation, officials said.

Three Marion County Sher-iff’s deputies responding to a call about shots being fired on Monday night found a dead man in a driveway. As they were investigating, a man armed with a shotgun ap-proached them, the agency said in a Facebook post.

They told the man to put down the gun, but he refused and confronted the deputies.

At least one deputy fired at the man, who died of his inju-ries, the agency said.

The deputies, who were not injured, were placed on ad-ministrative leave, pending an investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Officials have not released the names of the two men or the deputies. They have also not said what happened to the man who was dead in the driveway.

Woman who sued for ivermectin dies

from COVIDPALM BEACH GARDENS

— A Florida teacher hospital-ized with COVID-19 has died after her husband unsuccess-fully sued to force doctors to treat her with ivermectin, a drug popular among some skeptics of accepted coronavirus treat-ments despite a lack of studies proving its effectiveness.

Tamara Drock died Friday, 12 weeks after being admitted to Palm Beach Gardens Med-ical Center, Ryan Drock told the Palm Beach Post.

He sued the hospital last month in an attempt to require doctors to administer ivermec-tin, a drug used to treat condi-tions caused by parasitic worms. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved the drug to treat COVID-19, saying it hasn’t proved effective in pre-clinical trials.

Palm Beach County Circuit Judge James Nutt rejected Drock’s lawsuit last month, saying allowing judges to countermand doctor’s deci-sions could set a dangerous precedent.

He urged the Drocks and the hospital to try to reach agreement on their own. A deal fell apart after a doctor agreed to administer ivermec-tin at a dosage the family’s at-torney said was too low, the newspaper reported.

Tenet Healthcare, which owns the hospital, did not re-spond to messages seeking comment, the paper reported.

Ryan Drock, who also was infected but recovered from COVID, told the Post he’s not giving up.

“I’m hoping they name a law after her so no one has to go through this,” Drock said. “If she had walked out of the hospital she could have had the medication.”

DeSantis wants over $1.5B for environment

NAPLES — Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tues-day proposed spending more than $1.5 billion for Ever-glades restoration, coastal re-siliency efforts and other environmental projects in the coming state budget.

The governor outlined the proposed environmental spending at separate news conferences in Naples and

Miami. The spending requests would need to be approved by the Legislature.

“We are excited to an-nounce this historic support for Florida’s environment, Ev-erglades restoration, and our water resources,” he said. “We have seen great results so far, but we are not yet at the finish line.”

The proposals include $960 million for Everglades restoration and other water quality projects, as well as $550 million aimed at resil-iency projects for sea level rise, storms and flooding.

The governor has until Dec. 12 to announce his state spending plan and has previ-ously outlined a proposal to increase teacher wages and give educators bonuses. The Legislature doesn’t have to approve the governor’s bud-get requests, but Republicans control the House and Senate and have worked closely with DeSantis in the past.

5 convicted of stealing vet, Social Security payments

FORT LAUDERDALE — Five men have been con-victed in South Florida of running a scheme to steal more than $1.8 million in vet-eran and Social Security benefits.

A federal jury in Fort Lau-derdale found Omar Shaquille Bailey and Ronaldo Garfield Green guilty last week of

conspiracy to commit fraud following an eight-day trial, according to court documents. They’re scheduled to be sen-tenced in January.

Jamare Mason pleaded guilty to his role in the scheme on the second day of trial. Two others, Kadeem Gordon and Mario Ricketts, had pleaded guilty before the trial. Two other men suspected of participating in the fraud hav-en’t been captured.

From 2012 to 2017, the group attempted to redirect over $1.8 million in benefits from more than 100 disabled veterans and Social Security beneficiaries, officials said. The scheme resulted in the actual loss of nearly $1 mil-lion, though the federal gov-ernment reimbursed the victims for the full amounts of their stolen benefits.

According to testimony at the trail, the group obtained the victims’ personal informa-tion and used it to fraudulently open bank accounts and pre-paid debit cards in the victims’ names. The conspirators also forged documents that di-rected the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the

Social Security Administration to deposit benefit payments into those fraudulent ac-counts, officials said.

Funds were withdrawn from ATMs and banks throughout South Florida and Georgia, in-vestigators said. Much of the funds were ultimately fun-neled to the architects of the scheme in Jamaica, officials said.

City leader won’t lose job for remote

attendance MIRAMAR — A 73-year-old

city commissioner will keep his job after a colleague with-drew a motion to oust him for attending meetings remotely during the coronavirus pandemic.

Miramar Commissioner Winston F. Barnes had at-tended meetings virtually since May 20, 2020 before re-turning to the chambers in October, when he shared his medical conditions and said a family member remains hospi-talized in a coma, the South Florida SunSentinel reported.

Before withdrawing his motion to oust his colleague,

Commissioner Maxwell Chambers said staff had tried their best to provide a safe environment, including plexiglass shields and mask requirements in the chamber.

“When you’re here to do the people’s business, you have to be responsible, that’s why we are here ... We all came back, staff came back, and there’s no excuse,” Chambers said.

Barnes, meanwhile, filed a motion to fire City Attorney Burnadette Norris-Weeks after asking for her legal opin-ion on whether commission-ers must attend meetings in person and not online. Her re-sulting memo said that a fail-ure to attend for three consecutive months can jus-tify removing the person from office.

A letter from Barnes’ lawyer said he had been marked “present” in the minutes for each meeting he logged into from May 20, 2020, through Sept. 1, 2021, and that he was never told he may be vio-lating the city charter for par-ticipating virtually.

Stocks rise on Wall Street after retail sales post big gain

Damian J. TroiseAP business writer

Stocks closed higher on Wall Street Tuesday as investors reviewed solid earnings reports from big retailers and a surprisingly strong report on consumer spending.

The government reported that Ameri-cans largely shrugged off higher prices last month and stepped up their spend-ing at retail stores and online. The Com-merce Department said retail sales rose 1.7% in October. That’s the biggest gain since March and up from 0.8% in the pre-vious month.

“It reiterates the strength of the U.S. consumer, but you have to wonder a bit as inflation expectations rise, are people rushing to get in front of that,” said Mike Stritch, chief investment officer at BMO Wealth Management.

The S&P 500 index rose 18.10 points, or 0.4%, to 4,700.90 and is sitting just below the record it set on Nov. 8. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 54.77 points, or 0.2%, to 36,142.22. The Nasdaq rose 120.01 points, or 0.8%, to 15,973.86.

Technology stocks did much of the heavy lifting for the benchmark S&P 500, which had slightly more gainers than los-ers. Chipmaker Qualcomm rose 7.9%.

A wide range of companies that rely on consumer spending made solid gains. Home Depot rose 5.7% after the home improvement retailer reported surging sales and solid profits in the third quar-ter amid a hot housing market. The re-sults also lifted competitor Lowe’s by 4.2%.

Several companies that depend on consumer spending rose. Online crafts marketplace Etsy rose 5.1%. Nike rose 1.8% while Coach and Kate Spade parent Tapestry gained 1.5%.

The nation’s largest retailer, Walmart, also reported solid financial results while raising its profit forecast, but the stock fell 2.5% and gave back some of the big gains it’s made in the last few weeks.

Several other large retailers will re-lease their latest financial results this week. Target reports its results on Wednesday and Macy’s reports results on Thursday.

Health care companies also rose. Com-munications companies and a makers of

household goods and other consumer staples lagged the market.

Bond yields edged higher. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 1.64% from 1.62% late Monday.

Investors received another encourag-ing economic update from the Federal Reserve, which said industrial produc-tion rebounded in October with a 1.6% gain. The gain followed a 1.3% plunge in September.

Wall Street is closely monitoring the latest economic reports for more clues as to how businesses and consumers are dealing with rising inflation. Companies have been raising prices as they face higher raw materials costs and supply chain problems. Consumers have been willing to pay the higher prices on many goods, though analysts are concerned that consumers could eventually pull back on spending because of inflation.

Associated PressPedestrians pass the New York Stock Exchange as it operates Oct. 13 during normal business hours in the Financial District in the Manhattan borough of New York. Stocks rose in morning trading on Wall Street Tuesday, Nov. 16, as investors reviewed solid earnings reports from key retailers and an encouraging update on consumer spending.

A dog park would be nice

Regarding the open space in front of Lecanto Walmart, where there is a building going up at this time, I think one of the lots could be made into a dog park. Maintenance could be partially paid by users of the area in the form of a monthly fee or a drop box for donations. It could be su-pervised by volunteers or provide jobs, however mini-mal. Many cities and towns have them. They are fun for the dogs, socially and physi-cally, and a great place to meet other members of the community. For those people

who cannot walk their dogs and/or don’t have fenced-in yards, a dog park would work wonders.

Be careful who you trust

I was new to Inverness. No license or car and no friends. Someone gave me a card say-ing “Help for Seniors.” I called, and we got together for shopping and doctor vis-its, and small jobs around the house. Everything was going fine. She even helped me go

to New Jersey to see my sick daughter. Good trip.

Everything was fine until April 2020. After a trip to the hospital, I left her in charge of the house and cat, telling her of a locked 70-year-old box with spare cash if needed.

When I came home, the box was gone and money hid. No way would I have parted with my 70-year-old box.

It started about a month later; I was missing small ob-jects, telling me I was hiding them because of UTI. Talking to my friends, who told me she was playing mind games. I had a large white rabbit she wanted. I said no, but it disap-peared. She was entering my apartment while I was out, without my permission.

Just this last weekend while she knew I would be playing cards, she entered and took a new lock box she had given me and also a $50 bill; she knew where I kept money.

After a few more weeks of entering my apartment, I re-membered she had told me she had an extra key made. So I changed my locks on both doors. No more entry!

But as I go along, I find things missing — a very ex-pensive and good sweater with silver all over it, even some of my special slacks.

Please warn all old resi-dents about elder abuse law. She broke it every time she entered my apartment.

That’s my true story and I hope it will help other people.

“I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul.”

STARK CONTRAST

Florida Statutes govern-ing the authorities and responsibilities for

cemeteries, graves and human remains reflect a strong commitment to re-specting and protecting the final resting places of all people regardless of culture, religion, race, gender or length of time since burial.

Nonetheless, Citrus County government, which owns and main-tains the 1.8-acre Pine Hill Ceme-tery, has fallen short in its com-mitment to main-tain this historic and oldest Afri-c a n -A m e r i c a n cemetery in the county.

Located within a mile of down-town Inverness and adjacent to the 22-acre Oak Ridge Cemetery that’s owned and maintained by the city of Inverness, the poor overall appearance of Pine Hill Cem-etery stands in sharp contrast to the aesthetic standards of Oak Ridge Cemetery, making the neighboring final resting places a tale of two cemeteries.

The crux of the sharp con-trast between the two ceme-teries is that county government does not charge for burial plots to under-write a perpetual care fund. As a consequence, the county budgets $2,500 annually for only mowing the grounds of Pine Hill Cemetery.

Conversely, the city of In-verness established a non-profit perpetual care fund as part of its license with the Florida Department of Fi-nancial Services when it as-sumed ownership of the Oak Ridge Cemetery in the early 1980s. By doing so, the city is able to maintain Oak Ridge’s aesthetic standards with a small percentage from each burial plot sale.

Dr. Devonte White, whose family has long-standing Cit-rus County roots, called pub-lic attention to the stark contrast between the two cemeteries with a stakehold-ers’ meeting aimed at bring-ing the county-owned Pine Hill Cemetery up to the same aesthetic standards as the Inverness-owned Oak Ridge Cemetery. Unpardonably, not a single county official

attended the meeting to hear firsthand the concerns and suggestions of the stakeholders.

Although the cemetery’s recur-ring need for some tender lov-ing care beyond m o w i n g prompted the Citrus Garden Club to organize volunteer clean

ups four times annually ever since 2001, more needs to be done to raise the aesthetic standards of Pine Hill.

The editorial board shares the stakeholders’ deep dis-appointment in the county’s apparent lack of interest by its nonattendance, as well as Dr. White’s belief that no matter who’s buried at Pine Hill, they deserve the same respect as those interred at the neighboring Oak Ridge Cemetery.

In the spirit of the Florida Statutes’ commitment to re-specting and protecting the final resting place of all, county government is en-couraged to make a stronger commitment to maintaining the history and dignity of those interred in Pine Hill Cemetery by diligently work-ing with Dr. White, the ceme-tery’s stakeholders and all interested parties.

How diligently the perpet-ual resting place of the de-parted is accomplished by those entrusted with its care serves to define the charac-ter of a community.

I love the park lightsEvery night when I take my mother to

the rehab, we go by Liberty Park and we all enjoy the lights very much down there, especially the pretty, different-col-ored lights on the tower. We just thought we would like to let you know and let the city know.

Hire a local to paint muralIrresponsible spending. Why would the

city of Inverness spend $11,000 to pay someone to paint a mural when you have residents right here that are wonderful artists and kids in school that would more than happily do it for free?

Build state-of-the-art animal shelter

Speaking of state of the art, how about building a state-of-the-art animal shelter? Has that become a dead issue?

Print funny Sound Offs at end of year

I was wondering if you keep track of your Sound Offs, like what’s called about the most in a year or a month or what have you…Maybe a year-end special. Not for this year, not for 2021 — somebody’s going to get their fingers really dirty trying to track that down — but for 2022, maybe. … Some of them make me laugh. Some you can just read right over. Print the funny ones at the end of the year, ones made throughout the year. It’s just a thought.

Mural money could have filled potholes

To these commissioners who approved

$11,200 for a mural on a wall: How many potholes do you think that $11,200 could have filled in Inverness

alone? Just think about that. Or even put the $11,200 toward a small roadway or something. It would have been a lot more effi-cient and a better use of money than to put a picture on a wall.

Editor’s note: The Inverness mural was approved by the Inver-ness City Council. County Commis-sioners had nothing to do with it.

RVs in residential areasI want to bring to the attention

of the county commissioners that why is there so many RVs, fifth wheels and camper-trailers pulled into residential areas and they’re hooking up to their systems and they’re living there perma-nently. I didn’t think we were running an RV park in different areas that’s zoned

residential. Why isn’t something done with these? I have friends that tried to buy a piece of property to put an RV in and they told them they couldn’t do it, only a couple weeks out of the year. So why aren’t they putting a crackdown on this? Now they’re building onto them and having that done. So, no, it’s not right and we need to do something…

No more outside consultantsI agree totally with Nov. 7’s Sunday

(Page C2 Sound Off) comment about hir-ing outside consultants for this county to make decisions. Our leaders are sup-posed to be educated and knowledge-able to make the decisions. If they can’t make the decisions, they shouldn’t be in the position. Any other organization in the world usually hires educated and knowledgeable applicants. What’s wrong with this county?

Hot Corner: MULLIGAN’S COLUMN� I’m calling to thank the Citrus County Chron-

icle and Gerry Mulligan for his two articles: The first one was written a few weeks ago about Hunter the dog winning dog shows, and the sec-ond one, entitled “Retirement travel is fun; until it’s not” (Sunday, Nov. 14, Page C1). Both of these articles had me rolling on the floor, they were so funny. I absolutely loved them and this one about the retirement travel and Hunter run-ning away and getting into trouble and now he has a police record, I just find it hilarious. So I’m just thanking you and thanking Gerry Mulligan

and thanking Hunter the dog for making my day.� I so enjoyed Gerry Mulligan’s account of his

travels since he’s been retired in Sunday’s Chronicle. I thought it was a riot. Gerry, as Doro-thy said in “The Wizard of Oz,” there’s no place like home, and, as far as I’m concerned — and I’m from New York — there’s no place like Flor-ida. Keep those stories coming. It’s really so en-joyable. Enjoy your retirement, Gerry.

� So happy to see Gerry Mulligan’s still doing a column. Words are not enough to thank him for the years of great Chronicles.

Just vote them out

Apparently, one of the many tentacles of the federal government, OSHA, will be awarded yet more power to effec-tively force more “free enterprise” businesses to give into edicts and mandates or pay exorbi-tant fines. I wonder where it goes from here?

We are losing this country bit by bit and it just breaks my heart and makes me mad to see this. As an 87-year-old U.S. Navy veteran, I urge you to vote them out.

Vern StephanHernando

Focus on state issues

Gov. DeSantis wants to be re-elected. But, can we hold him responsible for the deaths of perhaps 60,000 Floridians with his lack of concern for health, life, and safety orders? He has ham-pered a robust economic rebound from COVID. His orders keep many Floridians at home, afraid to work, socialize and take their children to school or day care (if

they can afford it). He also keeps COVID num-bers a secret and ap-points an embarrassingly anti-science man as Sur-geon General. He uses taxpayer dollars to sue everyone from school boards (duly elected by locals) to cruise lines for not succumbing to his authoritarian whims.

We need someone who will govern and focus more on issues like red-tide, transportation, health care for more Flo-ridians, elder care, broader educational op-portunities for our youth, and more local control. Stop the lawsuits against law-abiding citizens and businesses.

Marco Rubio wants to return as our federal senator, and Daniel Web-ster wants to return as our Congressional House representative.

But neither of them has voted for federal leg-islative proposals that would help bring funds to Florida for health, life, safety, education and our economy. Web-ster has the weakest re-cord of all the members of the House of Repre-sentatives in proposing legislation.

He discourages town

hall meetings with con-stituents. Marco Rubio voted against funding for climate impacts on our coastlines, health care for Floridians, and edu-cational funding for technology in our schools. By opposing the current “Human Infra-structure Bill,” he re-jects elder care proposals, expanding Medicare to cover dental

care and eye exams, af-fordable tuition for our young to attend commu-nity college, and more. They both vote against everything that helps Floridians, but they will take credit for bringing federal monies to our county and state.

Then there are our state Sen. Simpson and Rep. Massullo. Simpson, a wealthy farmer, wants

to be the Secretary of Agriculture. Don’t we all know what happens when personal agendas get enriched by political positions? His candi-dacy is a bad idea for this job. Besides, he, like Massullo, who is vying for Simpson’s open Senate seat, thinks It is an excellent idea for DeSantis to dictate a special session that will

cost taxpayers a million dollars to discuss the issue of infecting more Floridians. Of course, Massullo, a wealthy skin doctor, makes his pa-tients wear masks if they come to his office. Never mind the hypoc-risy. It runs deep in their ideology.

Richard MagedCitrus Springs

Some aren’t as fortunate

The other day in Sound Off (Saturday, Nov. 13, Page A8), a person called in and said how he had trav-eled all over the state, he doesn’t wear a mask, he won’t get the vaccine and he has been lucky enough to never have the virus. I think I’m glad for him. He’s a lucky individual. The trou-ble is that there’s 60,000 who will never be able to travel the state, hundreds of thousands who’ve been infected, who have been hospitalized and are still suffering from the repercus-sions of the virus. Instead of saying “how lucky I am,” he should be thinking about those people who aren’t as fortunate as him. But then again, that’s typical in this day and age: “I’ve got mine, too bad you didn’t get yours — suffer.”

Article makes a lot of sense

I’m calling in reference to Charles Lee’s article con-cerning the Citrus County waterfront setback require-ments (Sunday, Nov. 7’s Page C1 Other Voices col-umn). I think his article makes a lot of sense. I agree with him 100%. Now is not the time for Citrus County to loosen the re-quirements in its code. I be-lieve this: If people want to build on the water, that they should have a special insur-ance pool just for them. Regular taxpayers shouldn’t have to keep paying, over and over again, the insur-ance costs for people who get flooded out and then to rebuild on the same land again. Have a good day.

Thanks for the editorial

I want to thank the Chronicle for publishing the editorial in Thursday’s paper about the election

integrity and the supervi-sors of elections in Flori-da’s letter about it (Nov. 4, Page A9, “State officials say democracy under threat”). I’m glad you’re taking a stand. We have got to put this election lie— these big lies — to rest and the Chronicle, you have an important part to play in that. So please keep publishing things that tell the truth. Thank you.

Where is Thanksgiving?

I want to know if some-one could tell me what happened to Thanksgiving. It seems to have disappeared.

Pet neglect should result in jail timeThis is sad. I’m respond-

ing to Sound Off (about Thursday, Nov. 4’s front-page story), “Hernando woman arrested, accused of neglecting pets,” “Facing 17 charges of animal cru-elty.” Once she goes through our court system, I imagine she’ll get three to four years of probation, just like every other (person) that abuses animals. What a shame. She’ll wind up with probation, no jail time.

Power surges continue

What’s going on here on South Pleasant Grove Road in Inverness? We had a power surge yesterday at

9 o’clock. Everything goes out and within two min-utes, it comes back. This morning at 7:37, the same thing again – a power surge and everything goes off, then comes back. The cable goes out constantly. It will go out for a couple of minutes and then finally come back. What’s going on along this road that ev-erything keeps going out?

It happens at least two to three times a month. It’s getting to be very annoying.

Article brought back memories

What a great article on “Playing Panther proud” (Monday, Nov. 15’s front-page story). Excellent! I spent most of my high school years in the

marching band and it brought back some

beautiful memories. Good to see it. Thank you.

Jury begins deliberating at Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial

KENOSHA, Wis. — The jury began deliber-ating Tuesday at the murder trial of Kyle Rit-tenhouse after listening to dueling portrayals of him as a “wannabe soldier” who went look-ing for the trouble, or a concerned citizen who came under attack while trying to protect property.

The case went to the anonymous, 12-mem-ber jury after Rittenhouse himself, in an un-usual move, was allowed by Judge Bruce Schroeder to draw the numbered slips of paper from a raffle drum that determined which of the 18 people who sat in judgment during the trial would decide his fate and which ones would be dismissed as alternates.

That task is usually performed by a court clerk, not the defendant.

Rittenhouse, 18, faces life in prison if con-victed as charged for using an AR-style semi-automatic rifle to kill two men and wound a third during a night of protests against racial injustice in Kenosha in the summer of 2020. The former police youth cadet is white, as were those he shot.

Rittenhouse testified he acted in self-de-fense after coming under attack, while prose-cutors argued he instigated the bloodshed. The case has become a flashpoint in the U.S. debate over guns, protests, vigilantism and law and order.

The jury appeared to be overwhelmingly white. Prospective jurors were not asked to identify their race during the selection pro-cess, and the court did not provide a racial breakdown.

Buck takes shelter inside church on season’s first day

STURGIS, Mich. — A 10-point buck sought sanctuary inside a southern Michigan church on opening day of the state’s firearm deer hunting season.

Pastors at Grace Sturgis encountered the buck inside the church’s auditorium on Mon-day before it leapt through a window and back into the wild.

A video the church posted on Facebook shows the buck wandering around the church. Pastors Amanda and Luke Eicher and Justin Wickey erected barricades in a hallway to try to keep the animal from the rest of the church. At one point, it climbed stairs to a balcony.

“I was just shocked by how high he could jump,” Amanda Eicher said. “I was amazed at how big he was.”

The buck didn’t appear to have any gun-shot wounds and was bleeding just a bit from what appeared to be cuts from the glass, she told the Kalamazoo Gazette. Besides the bro-ken window, the only other damage was blood stains on the carpet.

“We all need reasons to laugh, especially with the hard seasons from the past two

years,” Eicher said. “I’m glad we could provide some laughs.”

At least 1 dead from mudslides in Canada

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — The body of a woman was recovered from one of the mudslides caused by extremely heavy rainfall in the Pacific coast Canadian province of British Columbia, authorities said Tuesday.

Police said search and rescue personnel were continuing to look for other possible vic-tims from Monday’s slides.

“Our team did recover one person,” said David MacKenzie, the Pemberton District Search and Rescue manager.

He said his team came across seven vehi-cles at the slide site on Highway 99 near the town of Lillooet and police were trying to de-termine if there were any other bodies.

“It is a significant amount of debris. It makes it very difficult for our search crews. The mud is up to their waist. I can’t recall our team being involved in anything like this in the past,” he said.

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Staff Sgt. Janelle Shoihet said the total number of peo-ple and vehicles unaccounted for had not yet been confirmed. She said investigators had received reports of two other people who were missing but added that other motorists might have been buried in the slide.

Pfizer: Others can make its COVID-19 pillCould help to end the

pandemic quicker Maria ChengAP medical writer

LONDON — Drugmaker Pfizer Inc. has signed a deal with a U.N.-backed group to allow other manufacturers to make its experimental COVID-19 pill, a move that could make the treatment available to more than half of the world’s population.

In a statement issued Tuesday, Pfizer said it would grant a license for the anti-viral pill to the Geneva-based Medicines Patent Pool, which would let generic drug companies produce the pill for use in 95 countries, making up about 53% of the world’s population.

The deal excludes some large coun-tries that have suffered devastating coro-navirus outbreaks. For example, while a Brazilian drug company could get a li-cense to make the pill for export to other countries, the medicine could not be made generically for use in Brazil.

Still, health officials said the fact that the deal was struck even before Pfizer’s pill has been authorized anywhere, could help to end the pandemic quicker.

“It’s quite significant that we will be

able to provide access to a drug that ap-pears to be effective and has just been developed, to more than 4 billion peo-ple,” Esteban Burrone, head of policy at the Medicines Patent Pool, said.

He estimated that other drugmakers would be able to start producing the pill within months, but acknowledged the agreement wouldn’t please everyone.

“We try to strike a very delicate

balance between the interests of the (company), the sustainability required by generic producers and most importantly, the public health needs in lower and middle-income countries,” Burrone said.

Under the terms of the agreement, Pfizer will not receive royalties on sales in low-income countries and will waive royalties on sales in all countries cov-ered by the agreement while COVID-19

remains a public health emergency.Earlier this month, Pfizer said its pill

cut the risk of hospitalization and death by nearly 90% in people with mild to moderate coronavirus infections. Inde-pendent experts recommended halting the company’s study based on its promis-ing results.

On Tuesday, Pfizer asked the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to authorize the pill.

Since the pandemic erupted last year, researchers worldwide have raced to de-velop a pill to treat COVID-19 that can be taken at home easily to ease symptoms, speed recovery and keep people out of the hospital. At the moment, most COVID-19 treatments must be delivered intravenously or by injection.

Britain authorized Merck’s COVID-19 pill earlier this month, and it is pending approval elsewhere. In a similar deal with the Medicines Patent Pool an-nounced in October, Merck agreed to let other drugmakers make its COVID-19 pill, molnupiravir, available in 105 poorer countries.

Doctors Without Borders said it was “disheartened” that the Pfizer deal does not make the drug available to the entire world, noting that the agreement an-nounced Tuesday also excludes coun-tries including China, Argentina and Thailand.

Associated PressThis image provided by Pfizer shows boxes for its COVID-19 pill. Drugmaker Pfizer said Tuesday it is submitting its experimental pill for U.S. authorization, setting the stage for a likely launch in coming weeks.

Prosecutors rest caseIn trial of men

who chased ArberyRuss Bynum

Associated Press

BRUNSWICK, Ga. — Prosecutors rested their case Tuesday in the trial of three white men charged with chasing and kill-ing Ahmaud Arbery after the jury saw graphic photos of the shotgun wounds that punched a gaping hole in his chest and un-leashed bleeding that stained his white T-shirt entirely red.

Prosecutors called 23 witnesses during eight days of testimony. They concluded with Dr. Edmund Donoghue, the state medical examiner who performed the au-topsy on Arbery’s body, followed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s lead in-vestigator in the case.

Donoghue testified that Arbery was hit by two of the three shotgun rounds fired at him. He said both gunshots caused such severe bleeding that either blast alone would have killed the 25-year-old Black man.

Donoghue performed an autopsy on Feb. 24, 2020, the day after Arbery was slain. The jury saw close-up photos of his injuries, which included several large abrasions to Arbery’s face from when he fell facedown in the street following the third gunshot.

Superior Court Judge Timothy Walmsley said defense attorneys would begin their cases Wednesday.

Father and son Greg and Travis McMi-chael armed themselves and pursued Arbery in a pickup truck after spotting him running in their neighborhood. Their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan joined the chase and took cellphone video of Travis McMichael shooting Ar-bery. All three men are charged with murder and other crimes.

World Cup qualifierRonald Blum

AP sports writer

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Tim Weah’s 11th-minute goal was matched by Michail Antonio’s spectacular 34-yard strike in the 22nd minute, leaving the United States with a 1-1 draw against Jamaica in a World Cup qualifier on Tuesday night.

Coming off Friday’s 2-0 home win against Mexico, the U.S. was looking to move into strong position to reach the World Cup as qualifying passed the half-way point. But a point on the road still left the Americans on track to claim one of three spots from North and Central Amer-ica and the Caribbean.

The U.S., which survived a disallowed

Jamaican goal in the 84th minute, has 15 points going into its final six qualifiers. Pending late games, Mexico was next with 14 followed by Canada (13), Panama (11), Jamaica (seven), Costa Rica and El Salva-dor (six each) and Honduras (three).

Canada played Mexico in 20-degree weather with snow expected in Edmon-ton, Alberta. Costa Rica hosted Honduras and Panama was home against El Salvador.

Loud reggae played on speakers during warmups before a crowd of 1,100 at 35,000-seat Independence Park, known as The Office, where a statue of Bob Marley sits outside. Because of the COVID-19 pan-demic, this was Jamaica’s first home game with fans since October 2019.

The scoreboard was off, and there was no visible game clock. The temperature was a comfortable 83 degrees for the 5 p.m. start.

No change in top 7 of rankingsRalph D. Russo

AP college football writer

Georgia, Alabama, Oregon and Ohio State held their places in the College Football Playoff ranking Tuesday, with Cincinnati still sitting at fifth.

There was no movement in the selection committee’s top seven after all those teams won last week. Michigan was still No. 6 and Michigan State sev-enth, heading into the Spar-tans’ big game Saturday at Ohio State.

Notre Dame moved up a spot to eighth. Oklahoma State (9-1) is now the highest-ranked Big 12 team at ninth after Okla-homa was handed its first loss last week.

Wake Forest (9-1) is No. 10, the highest-ranked team from the Atlantic Coast Conference with three rankings left until selection Sunday.

In the seven-year history of the College Football Playoff, no team has come from farther back than ninth to reach the final four with two rankings re-maining before selection Sun-day. Michigan State did that in 2015, propelled by a victory at Ohio State.

Oklahoma was the one top-10 team to lose this past weekend and the Sooners fell to 13th.

Notable for Cincinnati, which is trying to become the first team from outside the Power Five conferences to make the playoff, was Houston moving into the rankings at 24th.

The Cougars have already clinched a spot in the American Athletic Conference champion-ship game, where the Bearcats could be an opponent if they keep winning.

“When I talk about how firm (Cincinnati’s) position is, this week it’s rock-solid at No. 5,” selection committee chairman and Iowa athletic director Gary Barta said.

The Bearcats’ only victory against a team ranked in the se-lection committee’s top 25 is Notre Dame (9-1). They host SMU (8-2) on Saturday and then go to East Carolina (6-4) on the Friday after Thanksgiving.

WHAT’S OBVIOUS� Barring a historic upset in

one of its next two games, Geor-gia is going to enter the South-e a s t e r n C o n f e r e n c e championship game — most likely against Alabama — play-ing for seeding.

� If Alabama wins out, in-cluding an SEC championship victory against Georgia, it’s in.

� Ohio State and Oregon sim-ply need to win out to get in. The Buckeyes have potentially the most difficult closing stretch in the country with Michigan State, Michigan and a Big Ten title game most likely against No. 15 Wisconsin or No. 17 Iowa.

Not only would three straight wins make the Buckeyes a lock, but it would also make Oregon almost impossible to overlook at 12-1 with a victory in

Rays’ Cash repeat AL Manager of the Year; Kapler takes NL honorNoah TristerAP baseball writer

For Kevin Cash, being mentioned in the same sentence with Bobby Cox is an honor.

“That’s wrong. I shouldn’t be,” Cash said. “But saying that, it’s incredibly humbling. When you think about greats

in our game, Bobby Cox is right there.”

Cash has now accom-plished something only Cox achieved previ-ously — back-to-back Manager of the Year awards. Cash won the American League honor Tuesday night. The Tampa Bay skip-per was joined by San Francisco’s Gabe Ka-

pler, who won the National League award.

Cox took the NL honor two years in a row with Atlanta in 2004-05 during his Hall of Fame career.

That’s the feat Cash has now matched. He led the low-payroll Rays to a second consecutive AL East crown this season. Tampa Bay (100-62) finished with the AL’s best record before losing to Boston in the Division Series.

The Rays made it to the World Series in 2020, but Cash came under criticism for removing starting pitcher Blake Snell in the final game. But if anything, quick hooks like that were a fairly nor-mal strategy in this year’s postseason — perhaps another example of Cash and Tampa Bay being ahead of the curve on new ways to approach the game.

The Rays are now 2 for 2 on major awards. Outfielder Randy Arozarena was named Rookie of the Year on Mon-day. It wasn’t always the smoothest of seasons for Tampa Bay — right-hander

Tyler Glasnow and reliever Nick Ander-son were limited by injuries — but the Rays still held off threats from the Red Sox and Yankees in their division, as well as an improving Toronto team.

“We had the youth, we had the athlet-icism, and ultimately the talent to per-form really really well,” Cash said.

Seattle’s Scott Servais finished sec-ond behind Cash in the voting by mem-bers of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. Houston’s Dusty Baker was third.

Charlie Montoyo of the Blue Jays was fourth, followed by Alex Cora of the Red Sox, Tony La Russa of the White Sox and A.J. Hinch of the Tigers.

Cash received 19 of the 30 first-place votes.

Kapler won the NL award after guid-ing San Francisco to a franchise-best 107 victories in his second season with

Citrus Hills tourney supports local veteransSpecial to the Chronicle

‘Thank you for your service,’ rang through Citrus Hills and Skyview on Vet-erans Day 2021.

Community residents gathered on Thursday, Nov. 11, to show gratitude for the nation’s veterans with several patri-otic events.

Golfers enjoyed a morning of play at the 8th annual Veterans Day Scramble Golf Tournament at Skyview at Terra Vista, raising money for local veterans. Each player’s entry included a $20

veterans contribution to the Mission United of Citrus County, with several winning teams donating their champi-on’s prize back to the cause.

The day’s 128 players began with a 9 a.m. shotgun start, ending around 2 p.m. at Skyview Restaurant to an-nounce tournament winners. Teams con-sisted of three divisions: Male, Female and Couples.

Men’s Division Tournament Winners were John Bradbury, Paul Zito, John Barnes and Leon Wolfe.

Ladies Division Tournament Winners

were Ginny Welch, Helene Reed, Marti Jones and Cindy Masden.

Mixed Couples Division Tournament Winners were John Rogers, Margaret Rogers, Dawn Holley and Dave Holley.

Each year, the tournament and dinner dance are organized by the Citrus Hills Veterans Day Planning Committee, uniquely comprised of veterans repre-senting five branches of the U.S. military. All proceeds from the day go directly to the support of needy veterans and their families in Citrus County. Annually, the event fundraises close to $17,000.

That evening, club members gathered in the Hampton Room for the 17th an-nual Patriotic Veterans Day Dinner Dance. Veteran members were honored and celebrated with a night of dancing, dinner and live entertainment to enjoy by Lisa Beck and Rock Solid.

The event also included a Color Guard presentation and speech by Maj. Gen. Edward Leacock, Army National Guard, Retired, rounding out 2021 Veterans Day celebrations in the Citrus Hills community with a festive salute to veterans.

SCOREBOARD

U.S. passing was not as crisp on the rough field as it was during last week’s game at the sparkling new sta-dium in Cincinnati, and the Ameri-cans had far fewer touches in the attacking third.

Weah’s cross led to Christian Pulis-ic’s go-ahead goal Friday. Against the Reggae Boyz, Weah exchanged passes with Ricardo Pepe, continued his run and muscled past Bobby Decordo-va-Reid toward goal. From an ex-tremely tight angle on the left side, Weah slotted the ball from 6 yards past goalkeeper Andre Blake, off the far post and in for his second interna-tional goal.

Before the game, the public address announcer introduced the 21-year-old Weah as a son of former FIFA Player of the Year George Weah — the cur-rent president of Liberia — and a mother of Jamaican descent.

The goal was only the second in the first half for the U.S. in eight qualifiers.

With Jamaica playing on the 24th

anniversary of clinching its only World Cup appearance, Antonio tied the game with a solo effort, the longest-distance goal in the final round of qualifying.

The Premier League player of the month for August with West Ham, he took a touch to his right to create space from Tyler Adams and sent the ball past the outstretched left arm of Zack Steffen and just under the cross-bar for his second international goal. Antonio had never before scored out-side the penalty area for club or country.

A cross ricocheted off Antonee Rob-inson’s right shoulder in 38th but the arm was tucked in and Costa Rican referee Juan Gabriel Calderón did not blow his whistle.

Gianluca Busio had the best U.S. chance of the second half, putting a long-range shot over the bar in the 52nd, and Decordova-Reid skied an open 6-yard shot a minute later. Chris-tian Pulisic, still getting fit followed a sprained left ankle, entered in the 66th for Weah.

Damion Lowe headed in Leon Bai-ley’s corner kick in the 84th but was whistled for a foul, pushing Walker Zimmerman to reach the ball.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 2021 B3CITRUS COUNTY (FL) CHRONICLE

Columbus against the Buckeyes. No matter how sketchy the Pac-12 compe-tition has been.

Utah at No. 23 is the only other ranked Pac-12 team. The Utes host the Ducks on Saturday and those teams are positioned to meet again in the Pac-12 title game.

� If either Michigan or Michigan State wins out, beating the Buckeyes and taking a Big Ten title along the way, it’s in.

WHAT’S UNCLEAR� Can Alabama become the first

team to reach the playoff with two losses?

There are two scenarios here: Ala-bama (9-1) loses a competitive game to Georgia in the SEC championship game. Or Alabama loses one of its two remaining regular-season games and beats Georgia in the SEC title game. Hard to imagine the Tide not getting

in under the latter scenario. The for-mer? Less likely, but never doubt the power Alabama has to sway the committee.

� Can Cincinnati be caught from behind even if it wins out?

The biggest threat to the Bearcats appears to be Oklahoma State (9-1), which could get to 12-1 with with a Big 12 championship and three victories against Oklahoma and Baylor.

There is also a scenario in which both Michigan and Michigan State win out, giving the Spartans a Big Ten title and easy entry to the playoff and leaving Michigan at 11-1, challenging the Bearcats.

Wake Forest winning the ACC at 12-1 would have a resume similar to unbeaten Cincinnati, but no one vic-tory as impressive as a road win over Notre Dame.

Least likely to chase down an un-beaten Bearcats team is the Fighting Irish, who have gone on a nice run since losing to Cincinnati by 11 at home but with no really notable victories.

RANKINGSContinued from Page B1

the Giants. He beat out Craig Counsell of the Milwaukee Brewers and Mike Shildt of the St. Louis Cardinals.

Kapler managed two seasons in Philadelphia before being fired. The Giants hired him after Bruce Bochy’s retirement. Kapler had both big shoes to fill — Bochy won three champion-ships with San Francisco — and a struggling team to take over. When the Giants went 29-31 in the pandemic- shortened 2020 season, it was their fourth straight losing record.

Then, in a year when the star-laden Dodgers and Padres were supposed to compete for NL West supremacy, San Francisco surged to the best re-cord in baseball. The Giants beat out the Dodgers by a game for the division crown, although they lost to Los Ange-les in a tightly contested Division Series.

Kapler said he’s learned to become a good listener.

“I think I’ve really started to re-spect, understand and appreciate the feedback that I’m getting from players on a regular basis,” he said. “I really trust our players.”

As it turned out, Bochy was the per-son who announced Kapler’s award on the MLB Network show.

“I continue to feel like it’s

impossible to fill Bruce Bochy’s shoes,” Kapler said.

Perhaps it is, but now Kapler has done something Bochy never did with the Giants — win Manager of the Year. Bochy did receive the award in 1996 when he was with the Padres.

Kapler is the first Giants manager to win since 2000, when Baker re-ceived the honor for the third time in an eight-year span.

Counsell finished second behind Kapler after leading the Brewers to the NL Central title. Shildt was third — a month after he was fired over what Cardinals president John Moze-liak described as philosophical differences.

Brian Snitker of the World Series champion Braves and Dave Roberts of the Dodgers were the other manag-ers to receive votes.

Kapler received 28 of the 30 first-place votes, which were cast before the playoffs began.

UP NEXTThe Cy Young Awards are an-

nounced Wednesday night. Tampa Bay won’t be winning that: The AL fi-nalists are Gerrit Cole of the Yankees, Lance Lynn of the White Sox and Robbie Ray of the Blue Jays.

The NL finalists are Max Scherzer, who pitched for the Nationals and Dodgers this year, along with Corbin Burnes of the Brewers and Zack Wheeler of the Phillies.

Grossenbacher wins Ford Outlaw 25Beats Veltman to the finish line by 0.002 secondsKimberly Kelly

For the Chronicle

INVERNESS — Scott Grossen-bacher narrowly edged Jesse Veltman to win the Crockett’s Towing Ford Outlaw 25 Saturday night at Citrus County Speedway.

The win, by a mere 0.002 sec-onds, was the closest of the 2021 season.

Grossenbacher started outside the second row and made his way to contend with early race leader Joey Caterelli by lap No. 15. Once there, Grossenbacher pressured Catarelli for the lead.

Ten laps later, Catarelli slid as he exited turn No. 4 and left the lane open for Grossenbacher to take the lead.

Catarelli regrouped and made a run for the lead with Brayden Boardman in the mix and Velt-man watching the show in fourth.

Catarelli was able to hold off Boardman as the field took the five-laps-to-go signal, but Board-man made a dash and took sec-ond on the next lap. The pair continued to battle all the way to the white flag before making a last-lap effort for the win.

As the trio came around for the final turn Boardman tagged Grossenbacher from the rear and knocked him sideways as they came to the finish. The may-hem opened the door for Velt-man to secure second at the line just ahead of Boardman and just 0.002 seconds behind the race winner. Boardman finished third, Caterelli fourth and Mi-chael Autenrieth was fifth.

Jesse Veltman sits just 32 points ahead of last years’ Ford Outlaw Champion Thomas Peet — who finished Saturday’s race 10th — for the 2021 season title.

Official Results from the Pro Truck 50 are still pending the re-sults from shock inspections from the top three finishers.

Derek Pugh crossed the finish first to win the event over Carter Brown and Jimmy Frazier.

Sport Wilson topped the Signs-fast Pure Stock 25 after taking the lead from Casey Rounds at the half-way point of the race. Larry Welter Jr. followed suit for second. Rounds finished third. Division points leader Jason Waller finished the race fourth overall and holds a 76 point ad-vantage over Kleav Lewis, who pulled out of the event after just 12 laps. James Johnson was fifth.

Happy Florian walked away from a violent brush with the turn No. 3 wall, billboard area and scoreboard, after the throttle stuck on his No. 65 race car. De-spite shutting down power to the car, Florian hit the wall at full speed and landed on the drivers’ door wedged between the wall, trees and poles on the backside of the racetrack.

Vicki Zavrel took the early Powder Puff lead but was no match for Brittany Wilson who drove off to a half-second advan-tage at the line. Zavrel followed Wilson to the line for second ahead of Kacee Lewis, Cheyenne Concidine and Christine Board-man, in that order.

Jarrett Wagman may have fin-ished second in the Legend Cars Championship this season, but

his performance over the last five races are proof of his abili-ties of becoming a champion in the future.

Wagman topped the Little Gator Motorsports 25 over Gavin Graham, Jackson Reynolds, points champion TJ DeCaire and Stephen Hartley. The win was his fifth in the last six events.

There have only been three winners in the series this season. Ashton Chilton took the first win, with Wagman (six wins) and De-Caire (five wins) taking their share of the remaining 11 races.

Shane Butler took the BG Southern Sprint Car Shootout Series 40 after being chased by Davey Hamilton to the finish. Butler was able to clear early race leader Johnny Gilberton and lead all but the first nine laps. Sport Allen came across the finish third, Troy DeCaire fourth, Mickey Kempgens fifth.

Due to time constraints the Ford Outlaw Race of Champions, a race specific to those who have won in the Ford Outlaw division this year, was unable to start.

Competitors in several divi-sions will have one final attempt at championship titles in several race divisions as the 2021 stock car season has been extended to one final race night.

Headlining the Dec. 11 race

card is the $10,000-to-win Sports-man Fall Brawl, a grueling 200-lap event that is expected to draw the best Sportsman drivers across the state. Regular season action will include the Signsfast Pure Stock 25, Outlaw Street Stock 25 and Crockett’s Towing Ford Outlaw 25.

Associated Press

FORT MYERS — Chevez Goodwin scored 20 points, Boogie Ellis added 18 and No. 25 Southern California defeated Florida Gulf Coast 78-61 on Tuesday night in the return of Trojans coach Andy Enfield to the school he led to the “Dunk City” moniker in the 2013 NCAA tournament.

Cyrus Largie scored 20 points for FGCU (1-2).

Enfield spent two seasons at FGCU, leaving for USC after the 2013 run by the Ea-gles to the Sweet 16 — the first No. 15 seed to ever get that deep into the tournament.

Miami 68, FAU 66BOCA RATON — Isaiah Wong

made a go-ahead layup with 0.7 seconds left to give Miami a 68-66 victory over Florida Atlantic.

Charlie Moore hit 1 of 2 free throws with 23.3 seconds left to extend Miami’s lead to 66-61, and FAU guard Bryan Greenlee was fouled at the other end while making a layup at 16.6. Greenlee missed the free throw, but got his own rebound and passed it out to Michael Forrest in the corner for a 3-pointer to tie it at 66.

Miami opted to not to take a timeout. Wong brought the ball up and shook his defender to get in-side the lane for a contested fin-ish, and FAU was not able to hit the rim on a heave at the buzzer.

DURHAM, N.C. — Paolo Ban-chero started for Duke two days after he was cited for aiding and abetting impaired driving,

finishing with 10 points and eight rebounds in the seventh-ranked Blue Devils’ 92-52 win over Gardner-Webb.

Banchero, a freshman who was picked as the Atlantic Coast Conference Preseason Player of the Year, was stopped by police early Sunday morning in nearby Hillsborough along with team-mate Michael Savarino — coach Mike Krzyzewski’s grandson.

Savarino did not play against Gardner-Webb (0-3), while Ban-chero was on the court for 26 minutes.

Native American Heritage MonthInverness

issues proclamationSpecial to the Chronicle

Inverness Mayor Rob-ert Plaisted encouraged citizens to observe the month of November as National Native Ameri-can Heritage Month in a proclamation signed and sealed on Nov. 2 at a city council meeting.

The local Fort Cooper Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution an-nually requests the mayor and the Board of County Commissioners to commemorate the contri-butions of Native Ameri-cans and indigenous peoples.

In Citrus County, Semi-nole history runs deep, as reflected in the Seminole Heritage Trail at Fort Cooper State Park and the permanent exhibits at the Old Courthouse

Heritage Museum in downtown Inverness.

The Crystal River Ar-chaeological State Park, a

national historic land-mark, reveals the stories of the Paleoindians, a small groups of hunters

and gatherers who lived on the nearby banks of the Crystal River over 10,000 years ago.

The citizens of Inver-ness and Citrus County are inheritors of thou-sands of years of rich cul-ture by these original residents. There might also be genetic traces in members of our commu-nity from earlier genera-tions of Native Americans and their forbears.

Native American Awareness Week began in 1976 and was expanded by Congress and ap-proved by President George Bush in August 1990, designating the month of November as National Native Ameri-can Heritage Month.

As the proclamation states, “The history and culture of our great na-tion have been signifi-cantly influenced by American Indians and in-digenous peoples… (I) encourage all citizens to observe this month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.”

Special to the ChronicleJeanette Messersmith, chair of the American Indian Committee of the Fort Cooper Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, left, receives the signed document proclaiming November 2021 National Native American Heritage Month in the city of Inverness from Mayor Bob Plaisted, right.

Elks donate Thanksgiving turkeys to food pantry

Special to the ChronicleOn Nov. 10, the West Citrus Elks Lodge presented the We Care Food Pantry with 83 turkeys. This donation was made possible by the Lodge veterans committee and a grant from the Florida State Elks association. These turkeys will enable many families in Citrus County to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. First row from left are: West Citrus Elks members Brian Estus, Kent Kester, Kris Estus, Joanne Hepner, Erc Hendren and Doug Norman. Standing on the truck is Kelvin Moore, We Care Food Pantry employee.

Special to the Chronicle

The Old Courthouse Heritage Museum’s latest free traveling exhibit, “Apron Strings: Ties to the Past,” is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday from Nov. 10 to Jan. 7, 1 Courthouse Square in Inverness. The exhibit explores

the people behind the aprons and is more about life than fab-ric. It will reevaluate these unique objects as an important piece of social history.

Featuring 50 vintage and con-temporary examples, dating from the 1900s, this exhibit re-views the apron’s role as an emotionally charged vehicle for

expression with a rich craft his-tory that is still relevant today.

The exhibition chronicles changing attitudes toward women and domestic work. It also surveys the wide range of design techniques apron-mak-ers have used to express themselves.

Today, artists continue using

aprons to explore cultural myths, realities and their indi-vidual experiences with Ameri-can domesticity. Though not as widespread today, aprons re-main as functional and protec-tive garments for men and women alike.

If you have an apron to share, you are invited to participate in

the museum’s first Lunch and Learn speaker program from noon to 1:30 p.m. with present-ers Marnie Ward and Sue Col-lins from the UF/IFAS Extension. Both are gifted seamstresses and will share aprons from their personal col-lections. For more information, call 352-341-6428.

again. Amid the prepara-

tion of decorating for our Veterans Day participation in In-verness, the Crystal River Woman’s Club learned that past-president Pat Daniels had passed away in Salt Lake City, Utah, having moved there to live near her son and his family.

She was a devoted member of our club who volunteered many service hours with one of our most successful fundraisers; military card party luncheons. She was an avid golfer, as well. I recall presenting her with our Women’s Division trophy that our Strickland Funeral Home family sponsored for many years at Seven Rivers Golf and Country Club. It was a Memo-rial Day Golf Tournament. A member of St. Anne’s Episcopal Church in Crystal River, the memorial services for her will be held at 9 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 20, at the church.

With President Margaret Wil-liams and Gary providing the truck and trailer, and enthusi-astic club members dressed pa-triotically and with flags to wave and smiles, we traveled the parade route with clouds and sunshine taking turns above us. We were in awe of the number of families that lined the parade route waving their

flags and sharing their patriotism, as well. It was a blessing to share once again in the time-honored tradition.

With the service of veterans being hon-ored that day and deeply appreciated for keeping us pro-tected and safe, and for the sacrifices that have been unself-ishly given, our posi-tive word for this

week is “service.”Theodore Roosevelt wrote of

service, “The men and women who have the right ideals and those who have the courage to strive with labor and self-sacri-ficing service, find joy in life in part from the power of their work and a sense of duty.”

As members of nonprofit ser-vice organizations all around our county are committed to meeting the needs of others, each group offers multiple op-portunities to serve in leader-ship and participation with our time and skills. Our churches are in great need of members serving and filling the pews that have lost members during the pandemic. Serving is a joy-ful way to bring joy into the lives of others. Whether we serve behind the scenes or we are in a leadership position, each caring act blesses the giver and the receiver. Martin Luther King said it best, “Ev-erybody can be great because

everybody can serve.”

Homosassa River Garden Club tours Jane’s gardenSpecial to the Chronicle

The Homosassa River Garden Club took a guided tour at Chronicle columnist Jane Weber’s garden on Oct. 30.

Twenty-six members and guests learned about using native plants as a privacy screen, buffer zone and wildlife habitat that restores biodiversity and sequesters carbon.

Planting native plants that evolved in or can adapt to Central Florida’s cold hardiness zones 9A and 9B in Florida’s humid subtropical climate helps restore habitats after homesite development.

More trees and smaller plants help mitigate cli-mate change as plants use carbon dioxide and emit oxygen into our atmo-sphere for humans and animals to breathe.

Neighborhood children Makenzie Quinn, 10, and her sister Carlee, 6, volun-teered as kitchen prep staff to arrange trays of goodies while the garden-ers were wandering Jane’s garden, nursery and firebreak trail system.

Pop Up Some Fun!

Mini Fact:This photo series showsthe kernel as it popsopen to release the whitepopcorn.

Next Week:Be thankful

Popcorn is a popular treat for kids and adults. According to industry experts, since the COVID-19 pandemic began, we’re popping a lot more at home. This week, The Mini Page learns more about this favorite snack.

A tradition of the Americas Thousands of years ago, popcorn popped up in South and Central America. It became such an important food to the Aztecs that they used it in religious ceremonies. (The Aztecs were Native Americans who lived in the area that is now Mexico.) They decorated their headdresses with popcorn and put popcorn necklaces on statues of their gods. In the 1500s, the Spanish saw Aztec women wearing strands of popcorn in their hair and dancing a popcorn dance. A Spanishexplorer described popcorn as a “kind of cornwhich bursts when parched and … makes itself look like a very white flower.”

Popcorn takes off In 1893, at the Chicago World’s Fair, a businessman showed fairgoers the first movable popcorn popper. The machines were powered by steam or gas. Street vendors began selling popcorn wherever a crowd gathered, such as at fairs and parks. During the Great Depression inthe 1930s, popcorn was often the only treat people could afford. Popcorn businesses boomed.

What is popcorn? Corn is a member of the grass family, and it is a cereal grain. Popcorn is a type of corn, or maize (maze). Here are the four most common kinds of American corn: Sweet corn is the corn we eat as corn on

the cob. Field corn is not as tender and sweet

as sweet corn. It is used mainly to feed livestock and to make corn products such as corn syrup, cereal or ethanol fuel. Most of the corn grown in the United States is field corn. Indian corn has tough black, brown

and yellow kernels. It is used for decoration and is not usually eaten as it is. Some forms are ground to make tortillas or taco shells. Popcorn is the only corn that pops.

What makes it pop? There is a small drop of water inside the starch in each kernel. When the kernel is heated, the water starts to expand, or get bigger. When the water gets hot enough, it turns to steam. It starts to melt the starch. The starch turns into a super-hot, jelly-like goop. The kernel keeps getting hotter until it reaches about 450 degrees. As the goop boils inside the kernel, the pressure grows and grows. Finally, the hull can’t hold everything in anymore, and it explodes. The mushy white starch spills out and cools immediately.

Popcorn facts Popcorn is a whole grain and is good

for you. Most of the popcorn in the world is

grown in the United States Corn Belt: Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska and Ohio. Popcorn kernels 1,000 years old have

still popped.Microwave popcorn kernels are coated with oil so they will get hot

enough to pop.

Parts of popcornThe unpopped kernel is the actual seed of the popcorn plant.The hull is the outside browncovering over the seed, or kernel.The white part we love to eat isthe food for the growing part of the

seed. The food is called starch.

Words that remind us of popcorn are hidden in this puzzle. Some words are hidden backward or diagonally, and some letters are used twice. See if you can find:

Teachers: Follow and interact with The Mini Page on Facebook!

For later:Look through your newspaper for recipes that use corn or those for special popcorn treats.

Experts in Malaysia’s part of Borneo conducted tests on 30 orangutans to see if the endangered primates had been infected with the coronavirus. All of the samples collected by vets came back negative, but the team says it will continue to monitor the apes and test them regularly. Some domestic animals have become infected with COVID-19, and the Atlanta zoo just announced several of its gorillas had tested positive.

Annie’s advice

Dear Readers: Many of you wrote about why the husband of “Ne-

glected Spouse” has not had sex with her in years. We re-ceived quite a variety of opin-ions and comments; here is a sampling:

Dear Annie: “Neglected Spouse” wrote that her hus-band hasn’t shown interest in her sexually throughout their 30-year marriage. Your answer w a s thought-ful and encour-a g i n g . But I have ex-p e r i -e n c e d t h e s a m e s i t u a -tion in my 37-y e a r marriage because of some-thing rarely discussed. People, especially men, who have au-tism spectrum disorders like Asperger’s syndrome some-times act like the writer’s hus-band regarding sexuality. Asperger’s is a developmental disorder that can affect every part of life.

I’ve found peace with my autistic husband, and I hope that others may find their own peace. — Been There

Dear Annie: Reading the letter from “Neglected,” I was like, “I wrote it.” My husband and I had the same issues, only he showed signs of infi-delity. We are now divorced.

I am in counseling, and I am happy. I am no longer bit-ter, so I can be cordial with the guy, who is obviously not happy with his choices. — Beautiful, Inside and Out

Dear Annie: Unfortunately, her husband ignores the ther-apist option. This could be a chemical/libido problem. I’d say a doctor’s visit is needed for him. A hormone checkup may help! — Reader in Italy

Dear Annie: I empathize with the woman who is in a platonic relationship with her husband. I had a similar ex-perience and relate to her need for closeness.

I struggled for seven-plus years with a husband who re-fused to discuss what was wrong. He pretended to be im-potent. I discovered him in the kitchen during the night watch-ing porn and masturbating. Still, he refused to discuss what was wrong except that it was “me.” He refused counseling.

We are divorced, and I am happier. My advice to “Ne-glected” is to let him go. — Speaking from Experience

Dear Annie: “Neglected Spouse” should consider that her husband is probably gay. I was married for 20 years to a man who pretended at first. He was a great actor. But eventually, he became emo-tionally abusive, saying it was my fault that he didn’t want to have sex with me.

I lost my sense of myself as a woman. I couldn’t leave the children, and I didn’t believe I could support them myself. He developed alcoholism, and Al-Anon finally helped me get my-self back. My kids were grown when I left, and it took 14 years of being alone before I could make another connection.

I met a wonderful man and had 20 years with him, both of us older and wiser and much happier. I wish I had had the strength to get out of that first marriage sooner. Tell her she can find someone who will love her for herself. And he should admit he is gay and find a man who will love him for himself! — Married to a Gay Man

Dear Annie: My spouse and I have both been married be-fore. There was no wedding night; my husband had said he wanted to “wait till after mar-riage” but then said health is-sues made sex impossible. Coming home from work early, I found him in full perfor-mance, watching porn. He confessed to a porn addiction.

I sought a marriage annul-ment, but the lawyer scoffed and said I’d waited too long and “there are many reasons to be married.” We went to counseling and agreed that he’d abstain when I was home, and I would schedule time away. Fast-forward 12 years; we’re both retired. I have hobbies, volunteer work and friends, and I know that my happiness is no one’s job but mine. — Not What I Ex-pected, but OK in Nevada

BridgePhillip Adler

Newspaper Enterprise Assn.

Which inhabitant of Sesame Street would surely make a top-class bridge player?

Today’s deal requires an ability that this character has in abundance. After an aggressive auction involving a limit major-suit raise and four con-trol-bids, South is in seven spades.

West leads the diamond king. How should South plan the play?

He has five clubs and the heart ace, so he must win seven trump tricks. These can come only from four winners and three ruffs in hand. Declarer ruffs the diamond lead and cashes the spade ace, getting the bad news.

Now he plays a club to dummy, ruffs a diamond high, crosses back to board with a heart to the ace and ruffs the last diamond high. South leads the spade eight to dummy’s nine, draws the last two trumps, dis-carding the two heart losers from hand, and claims. It is a textbook dummy reversal.

It would be a different story if West were to lead his club (or a heart or a spade!). Often, leading a singleton against a grand slam is a bad idea be-cause you cannot hope to get a quick ruff. However, here the lead removes a dummy entry prematurely. De-clarer wins trick one on the board, ruffs a diamond, cashes one top trump, plays a heart to the ace and ruffs another diamond. But now South cannot both get to dummy to ruff the last diamond and return to dummy to draw trumps without let-ting West score a club ruff. Declarer would be left to rue the lack of the spade seven or eight in the dummy.

The Count made it, of course. Did you?

Citrus County will cele-brate Geographic Informa-tion Systems (GIS) Day on Nov. 17.

While global circum-stances require GIS Day to be largely virtual this year, Citrus County will cele-brate innovative applica-tions of GIS technology including analysis, visual-ization, gaining insights into geospatial data and thoughtful leadership in the field of county government.

More than 20 years ago, Jack Dangermond, founder of GIS company, Esri, envisioned people collaborating and sharing how GIS affects everyone. This led to the establish-ment of GIS Day, which was first observed in 1999.

The explosion of geo-spatial technology since then has expanded that idea into a global event that shows how geography and the real-world appli-cations of GIS are making a difference in business, government and society. It is a chance for organiza-tions to share their accom-plishments and inspire others to discover and use GIS.

“Geographic knowledge and systems to manage our geographic data are central to our ability to maintain infrastructure, manage land and re-sources, provide emer-gency response and make informed decisions,” said Cynthia Skelhorn, Citrus County GIS director.

“We are working to maintain and improve our current GIS services by developing more modern, standardized web maps and tools. Our aim is to contribute to the welfare of Citrus County residents, businesses, and govern-mental operations by pro-moting GIS awareness and improving our map-en-abled services,” Skelhorn added

This November, Citrus

County will join hundreds of organizations world-wide in hosting virtual gatherings that will cele-brate the impactful work of GIS professionals and serve to ignite the imagi-nation of the future inno-vators who will further advance global progress using GIS.

“GIS Day is a wonderful opportunity for profes-sionals from around the world to get together to share the amazing things they are doing,” Danger-mond said. “This year, more than ever before, the work of GIS has helped the world better under-stand and mitigate the im-pacts of unprecedented crises, including climate change and COVID-19.

“Organizations across

the globe are taking part in grassroots events that help celebrate geospatial science and how it impacts the real world for good,”

Dangermond added. “Our users should be proud of the work they do, which GIS Day is meant to showcase.”

Special to the Chronicle

St. Scholastica Knights of Columbus Council 14485 recently held their annual Soccer Challenge at St. John Paul II School in Lecanto.

This challenge provides an athletic outlet for boys and girls ages 9 to 14 and encourages the value of sportsmanship and healthy competition.

This event is designed for participants to demon-strate the most basic soccer skill, the penalty kick.

Participants were di-vided into groups based on their age and gender. After three practice kicks, participants were scored on the placement of 15 kicks from the 12-yard penalty line.

Points are awarded ac-cording to where the ball passes through the net. The points were tallied up and a winner was de-termined by the highest number of points for each age/gender category.

This year, the Knights had their greatest turnout with 57 participants. Win-ners are eligible to partic-ipate in competitions at the regional level and possibly advance to the state and national levels.

Each winner was pre-sented a certificate and official Knights of Colum-bus soccer ball.

It was the day before Halloween, and all through Old Homosassa a parade of more than 50 decorated golf carts and other vehicles made their way from stop to stop along the route of the Old Homosassa Heron Hop Halloween Golf Cart Poker Run.

This day of fun, fellow-ship and fabulous prizes benefited the community grief support services pro-vided by Friends of Citrus and the Nature Coast by raising more than $8,500.

What made all of this possible began with the enthusiastic support of the Homosassa Civic Club and the participation of five of the area’s popular destinations.

Destinations included the Florida Cracker Mon-key Bar, Two Pop’s Sand-wich Shop at River Safaris, Old Mill Tavern, Nauti Time Seafood ‘n Wings and The Shed at MacRae’s of Homosassa.

At MacRae’s, winners were announced, prizes were awarded and a silent auction was held. Throughout this journey, poker run participants drew cards at each stop to complete their poker hands to win raffle gift baskets and gif t certificates.

Participants detoured to the Homosassa Civic Club to have their decorated ve-hicles judged by local mu-sician Mick Sharp and First Christian Church of Inverness Pastor Ray Kelley.

Howls and screams ac-companied announce-ment of the best decorated vehicle. Also awarded were a $345 50/50 and the best poker hand gift basket.

Along with event spon-sors, 31 area businesses and individuals donated thousands of dollars’ worth of raffle prizes and

silent auction items. “We are honored and

humbled by the level of support we received from so many to put this event together and enable it to happen as fantastically as it did,” Susan Quenelle, Friends of Citrus and the Nature Coast program di-rector said.

“Our stop locations, sponsors, prize donors, volunteers and committee members provided vital resources, energy, imagi-nation and tireless hard work, and our poker run participants added the spirit of fun and

generosity that made for an exhilarating and joyful experience for all,” Quenelle added.

On the heels of the simi-larly successful inaugural Kings Bay Heron Hop Golf Cart Poker Run held in Crystal River this past April, Friends of Citrus and the Nature Coast can now confirm that both events will be repeated in 2022.

For details about grief programs or for ways to help, call 352-249-1470, visit friendsofcitrus.org or Friends of Citrus on Facebook.

Tanner is an orange tabby ready to play and wrestle at a moment’s notice. He would do best in a home with other pets. He is not yet a lap cat as he is too busy investigating. A sunny window with some wildlife to watch will keep him busy but a treat will bring him right back down. You can meet Tanner and a few friends at the Precious Paws Rescue Adoption Center at 5164 S. Florida Ave. in Inverness. We are open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Stop in and visit with a few kitties — lots of purrs and cuddles available.

Salem is about 4-plus years old. She’s quiet, gentle, enjoys a cat tower near a window and will do best in an adult home with no other pets or small children. She came to us over a year ago with a tumor on her neck that began in an oil gland, and the vet advised that it was a type that rarely reoccurs. Salem should have regular vet visits to make sure she stays healthy, and once in her forever home, we know she’ll thrive and be very happy companion! To make arrangements to meet Salem, call Hardin Haven at 352-422-5525. Several Hardin Haven cats are in residence at Pet Supermarket in Inverness, and Hardin Haven also does an adoption event at Pet Supermarket in Inverness from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays.
